The wounds inside my tearing heart,

Touch me firmly with the palm of your hand
Ever never end...

I set you free so far away
Is something the matter?
Someone enters the forest.
No one has business in that forest.
Then all's well.
I'm so worried that someone will come to bother us.
No one will come.
No, not ever.
[The Vampire in the Old Castle]
Marshall Cross is missing, isn't he?
We can't get a hold of him, you see...
Is he really going to be here, though?
Um...
Oh, how unusual for someone to come to this town.
Hello
My name is Allen Walker.
You! Th-Th-That!
That crest!
Oh, um, what about it?
You forgot your cart!
He's gone...
What's going on here?
I'm so weak-willed.
Wh-What?
Um, wait!
Ah, wait!
No!
A vampire?
Yes, that's right.
H-How scary...
Oh, excuse me.
Not at all.
My name is George. I'm this town's mayor.
That lunch cart is just my day job
You see...
Yes?
There is in fact a vampire living near this village.
His name is Baron Krory.
He never shows his face in daylight,
and there are constant terrifying screams emanating from his castle.
It is said that no one who enters that castle ever comes out alive.
A vampire? In this day and age?
I'm sorry...
Please, continue.
Until recently, Krory would leave us alone as long as we stayed away from the castle.
Krory lived in peace with us, the forest separating us.
Until one night...
The first victim was an old woman who lived in the village.
The cloaked figure sucked the woman's blood until her body was withered and dead.
That's-
Baron Krory!
Since then, Krory has continued to feed on us.
To date, nine of our people have become his prey.
Damn it, it's unforgivable!
He got my best friend!
We've gotta go vampire huntin'!
That's right! Death to Krory!
Quite the angry mob..
We were prepared to confront Krory tonight, but...
God has not forsaken us!
A Dark Priest, the seal of the Order on his breast,
has come to save us from the wicked vampire!
Dark Priest, Sir, we beg of you to rid us of the curse that is Krory.
Save us, please!
Um, that's not why I'm here...
What?!
Impossible!
Why, then, would a priest such as yourself come to our village?
I'm looking for someone...
Looking for someone?
Umm...
He looks like this.
His name is Cross Marian.
Do you recognise him?
What's wrong?
There's no mistake!
I knew it!
Wh-What, now?
You really are the man we've been waiting for, the one who'll save our village!
Let go, please...
What happened?
He predicted your arrival.
My master, you mean?
Yes, indeed.
It was just a short while before Krory started hunting.
A traveler came to our village.
He came to ask directions to Castle Krory.
We tried our best to stop him, saying that no one ever returned from there alive,
but he just laughed and went on his way.
I told him!
Three days had passed, and just when we thought for sure that Krory had killed him...
The traveler returned!
How did you make it back alive?!
My dear vendor, let me give you some advice.
If the master of the castle starts behaving out of sorts,
you need only seek the aid of one clothed as I am, with the same seal upon his breast.
He will resolve everything.
If you wait, he will most definitely come to this town.
And after that he went on his way.
After awhile, as the traveler foretold, Krory began to attack the village.
All has unfolded as the traveler predicted,
and now you have arrived with the seal on your breast just as he said you would.
Just as he predicted!
You are, without a doubt, the saviour, come to save our town!
Stop!
Stop this!
All right, I'll do it!
Just let me go..
It's late, so I suggest you rest up here and get started tomorrow.
Good night.
Uh, right...
Side tracked again...
I came to look for my master, and now I'm forced to hunt this vampire down...
Too bad.
My left eye can reveal Akuma.
You were watching this room from outside, weren't you?
I was watching you, too
Damn!
I've gotta get outside!
What was that?!
My left eye's blind.
Damn, there's a level 2!
Big hammer, small hammer.
Extend!
This is...
Lavi! Bookman!
What are you doing here?
What'cha sitttn around for?
This is no time for lolly gagging.
Hey!
Hey, what's going on?!
Hey, that's cheating!
How's that?
Even beans have their uses, as they say.
I'm not a bean!
They got away!
Wait!
Ah, crap!
My goodness! Three Dark Priests!
Our cup runneth over!
And you even fought off the attacking monsters last night, the um...
Akuma.
Yes, Akuma. How wonderful, that you were able to rid us of the Akuma!
Well, Akuma are our specialty, you see.
Akuma, vampires, they're all the same!
At any rate, I request that you accompany our town's militia to the castle tonight.
Um...
We expect great things...
That does it.
Well, you'll have to get going then.
Show me your eye.
Um, yeah...
You always seem to hurt this one eye.
Hmm, the humour is absorbing it...
I don't know how, but it would seem the humour in your eye is absorbing the damage done.
It may be an effect of the Akuma's attack.
He gonna be all right?
It's the same as when I treated him last.
Just give it some time, and the eye should see again of its own accord.
All right, then.
What was this about going somewhere?
The towns people's' request.
The Akuma that attacked you have me concerned,
and there must be some reason why Marshall Cross said what he said.
We'll have to go see this vampire if we want to know what's going on here.
That's true.
Bad luck pal. Buck up!
You're going, too, Lavi.
It's part of your training.
What about you?
I can't leave.
There are still some concerns here about the Akuma, too
All right, already, you old panda.
Who're you calling panda?!
Ow!
I told you not to call me that!
Your left eye still can't see?
Yeah, but it's all right.
Allen, though, did you know that if a vampire bites you, you become one yourself?
Yeah, I think I heard that.
So don't get bitten.
Also, about anti-vampire weaponry...
Yeah, I think they've got that covered...
Something wrong?
No, nothing...
Think about it.
There were Akuma here last night, right?
Think the vampire might be an Akuma in disguise?
I've never heard of an Akuma that drinks blood.
That's true...
Oh yeah, I forgot to ask.
What are you and Bookman doing here?
Oh, that.
Well-
Stop you two!
There! Look!
This is the gate to Castle Krory.
Beyond here is a garden which Krory owns, where Akuma are said to lie.
Beyond that is the castle itself.
How tacky...
I can hear something...
Yeah...
Now, go!
'Kay...
Man, this Krory guy has terrible taste.
Ooh~!
Why are you taking your gloves off, Allen?
You scared?
No, no!
I see you're fingering your weapon an awful lot, Lavi...
I'm so not scared!
What is it?
There's something here!
It's getting closer!
What was that?!
It's damn fast!
What's that smell?
I thought I smelled a sickly sweet kind of smell...
F-Franz!
What happened?
It got Franz!
Th-There he is!
That's...
Him?
Arystar Krory!
So he's not an Akuma!
I guess not...
He's a real vampire?!
Torimodosu yo kono ryoute de
I can see the light of tomorrow,
boku ni wa mieru ashita no hikari ga
and I will take it back with my own hands.
So proud so proud.
Hitori asobi ni akiteru mitai
You seem to get tired of playing alone.
Kokoro no koe wa todoiteiru kai
Will the voice of my heart reach you?
Kikoeru mono sore ga kotae
Whatever you will hear, that will be my answer.
Rikutsu janai kono omoi ga
This feeling isn't logical,
tashika na hitotsu no pride
it surely comes from my pride.
Mukashi ni mita eiga mitai
I know how I will be in the future,
boku ni wa mieru ashita no jibun ga
it will be like that movie we saw a long time ago.
Tsuyoku tsuyoku naritai kara hashitteru
I want to be stronger and stronger so I run.
Ushinatta mono umeyou toshite
To bury what we lost,
hazushite shimatta pride
I threw away my pride.
Torimodosu yo kono ryoute de
I can see the pride of tomorrow,
boku ni wa mieru ashita no pride
and I will take it back with my own hands.
Preview
Krory sucks my blood, only to disappear once more.
When we give chase and enter the castle, we find only a single beautiful woman.
On the next D.Gray-Man:
Do Your Best, Mr. Exorcist.
Pitiful Akuma, let your soul be saved!
