Kanda's Past and the 14th's Intentions

Alright, this is late, since I read the chapter on like... Thursday, and I've been watching/reading Fairy Tail. Now then, onwards to the chapter summary!

Link is at one of the now annihilated camps. The gas there is so thick that you can guess how many casualties there were. A Crow named Tevak, notes that the Noah spared her. Link asks her what happened to her, as she was struggling in her sleep, and she says she had a dream "Where Brother and Tokusa were being killed by Allen Walker. And then I saw myself killing that Allen Walker." She remembers that the place Allen was in was where the womb was being kept. She says that if that was a vision of the future, the Noah that put it in her head was a bastard. She's about to leave, but Link stops her, saying that as Allen's watchmen, he can't ignore what she just said. She asks what that's supposed to mean, and he answers that he has to put her under surveillance until he knows where Allen is. He then comments that if she's going to help "him", he'll accompany her.

Meanwhile, if you remember, Allen jumped out of an ark gate. Well, he was accompanied by Tyki, and they landed on the Millennium Earl. Allen notices where he is, and asks what's going on. The moment he spots Johnny and Reever, they apologize for getting kidnapped...again.

Allen then spots Kanda, who is just staring at Alma, and asks why he's there, and not at the Jordan camp. Sheryl comments that the camp was annihilated already, and that Allen wouldn't know since he came to rescue Tokusa. Allen asks what happened to Madarao, and Tyki says, "Mercym is taking care of him." Tokusa tells Allen Sheryl broke his legs without touching them. Sheryl tells them that every human in the room is under his power, that he is a sadist, and that if they don't want to see their comrades is hideous figures, they'd do as he says. Allen asks if Sheryl is telling them to shut up and die, but Sheryl tells him that Noah would never say something so "boring".

Sheryl then reminds Tyki and Allen that they are standing on the Earl, and Tyki comments that they wanted to retrieve Allen. Allen asks why, as he is their enemy. The Earl then grabs Allen and says that he will never return to the Black Order, and that Allen is not the Player, but the 14th himself. The Earl admits that he was fooled by Allen's clown antics.

As the other Order members are shocked, the Earl comments that akuma are his eyes, arms, and feet. He then tells Allen that the 14th called to him through the akuma (the Good Morning). He also says that it was shocking. Allen says he never did any of that, but the 14th wakes up and says that that was correct. The 14th wanted the Earl to know he was back. Quote: "I knew you'd come for me, brother... This time I will kill you, I will kill you and become the Millennium Earl!"

The Earl asks if that's the 14th's wish. Allen takes control of his body back and yells that he's not the 14th. As his boy disintegrates, he remembers that Cross said that the memory of the 14th will eventually take over the victim, turning him into the 14th, and making him kill people important to him. Allen headbutts the Earl, screaming, "I DON'T WANT THAT!" As the Earl moans, "My head... <3" Allen tells the Earl and the 14th that he's Allen the exorcist, and he'd die before becoming anything else. He also comments that those two should take their sibling squabbles out on other people, because it's a nuisance. Wisely comments to Road that Allen's an interesting person.

Kanda, with sword drawn and Road's doll form hanging by his teeth, nearly cuts the Earl, but Tyki blocks the hit. Sheryl freaks out at Road's predicament, and asks Wisely what he's doing. Wisely retorts that he's not a swordsman. Allen kicks the coffin Sheryl was on, and grabs Tokusa. He then asks Kanda is he was able to move. Kanda asks if Allen has a problem with that, and Allen replies that it annoys him that Kanda was immobile the whole time.

Kanda comments that he woke up there after his head got smashed in (by Wisely), and it took him a while to figure out what was going on. And why he took Road (doll form)? He wanted a hair tie since her brother broke it, so he took her ribbon. Just as they (Allen, Kanda, and Tokusa) try to escape, the pipes come up from the ground and blocks the exit, courtesy of Sheryl, who comments that they meant it when the Earl said the 14th would not be returning to the Order. The Earl says that he will force the Order to abandon him, and that they'll hold a party for his expulsion.

Kanda asks who Alma is, shocking everyone who knows about Alma and Kanda. The Earls asks for a repeat, and Kanda does. All the Noahs stare at Wisely, who wonders why they're staring at him. Bak wonders if Kanda doesn't Alma due to his appearance, but Zhu says that there's no way Kanda could not recognize Alma. Road tells Kanda that the figure is Alma, who he killed 9 years ago, but Kanda squeezes her head and says, "He's dead." Road tells him that Alma survived, and the Order hid him, blamed him on Kanda, and used the "sacred war" as an excuse, implanted akuma nucleus in Alma, and turned him into a living doll. Meanwhile, Kanda's threatening Road to shut up, but she doesn't.

When Road's done, Kanda crushes the doll to bits, and stabs it. Road asks if Kanda is glad to see Alma, and asks if the woman who made him slit Alma had something to do with this. Allen tells Kanda to calm down, that those attacks don't affect Road, that the Noahs are trying to provoke him, and they need to rescue everyone. Meanwhile, Road's doll returns and says that if Kanda cacn't believe it's Alma, then they'd let Alma prove it. Under Kanda and Allen, Wisely's demon eye appears under them, and Wisely says that he'll use Kanda to wake Alma. Kanda and Allen looks at it, despite warnings from Tokusa, and they disappear.

The next image is of Alma, who asks if "you're awake". Allen raises his hand, but Alma seems to ignore him. As he wonders where he is, and where Kanda is, Alma says, "You know what! They call you 'Yu'." Allen turns to Alma, who says that they call him Alma, and the pool Alma's kneeling in front of has a hand sticking out of it. The final panel has Alma saying, "Happy birthday Yu!"

The 14th is weird. He wants to kill the Earl, to become the Earl? Weird. Sheryl amused me here, because he really did mean shut up and die. I'm wondering if Kanda really doesn't recognize Alma, but maybe it's a defense or something. Part of me wonders if Allen is in Kanda's mind, but it could be Alma's too. The hand thing was weird...I should show you the image.

Anyway, I'll see you guys next week, okay? Sayonara!
