Fic: 01 Mana
Allen didn't understand why he was led away to a grey sterile room, why his guardian was taken away from him, why he started feeling so funny. His arm hurt, but that was okay. His vision blurred but that was okay too. He got better, he always did.
He sat there, eating this weird block thing with his right hand. His left was safely secured in a mitten.
"Mister?" The armed solider that stood near the door didn't move, his face unreadable behind his gas mask.
He didn't know how long he sat there, until the door opened and people in white walked in. They were hurrying along a figure that was well known to Allen. "Mana!"
The little boy got up, walked over, arms outstretched. "Mana! You're okay-" Teeth bit into his face and head, scraping against the bone, blood and spittle dripping down the young boy's shocked face.
Disjointed and wounded from the pain, the shock Allen didn't really remember what happened. No, he just didn't want to remember everything. But he did remember the flash of metal, and the blood that coated his jacket.
He remembered Mana's feverish face, the distant look in his eyes and the red star stamp pronounced on his forehead. The same red star that was on the solider's decals, the same red star that was prominent everywhere in this otherwise grey facility.
"Hello little boy~♥"
