Chapter 1: Recovery
Hi it's Mr. Rageguy with the sequel to Reunion of Joy and Sorrow. This will hopefully be much longer than Reunion of Joy and Sorrow.
In this fanfic Johnny and Kanda are stay at the order instead of going to look for Allen. (Personally I think Johnny's stalker-obsessiveness towards Allen is creepy.)
Disclaimer:
One of the rights accorded to the owner of copyright is the right to reproduce or to authorize others to reproduce the work in copies or phonorecords. This right is subject to certain limitations found in sections 107 through 118 of the copyright law (title 17, U. S. Code). One of the more important limitations is the doctrine of "fair use." The doctrine of fair use has developed through a substantial number of court decisions over the years and has been codified in section 107 of the copyright law.
Section 107 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered fair, such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. Section 107 also sets out four factors to be considered in determining whether or not a particular use is fair.
The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes The nature of the copyrighted work The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work
The distinction between what is fair use and what is infringement in a particular case will not always be clear or easily defined. There is no specific number of words, lines, or notes that may safely be taken without permission. Acknowledging the source of the copyrighted material does not substitute for obtaining permission.
The 1961 Report of the Register of Copyrights on the General Revision of the U.S. Copyright Law cites examples of activities that courts have regarded as fair use: "quotation of excerpts in a review or criticism for purposes of illustration or comment; quotation of short passages in a scholarly or technical work, for illustration or clarification of the author's observations; use in a parody of some of the content of the work parodied; summary of an address or article, with brief quotations, in a news report; reproduction by a library of a portion of a work to replace part of a damaged copy; reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of a work to illustrate a lesson; reproduction of a work in legislative or judicial proceedings or reports; incidental and fortuitous reproduction, in a newsreel or broadcast, of a work located in the scene of an event being reported."
Copyright protects the particular way authors have expressed themselves. It does not extend to any ideas, systems, or factual information conveyed in a work.
The safest course is to get permission from the copyright owner before using copyrighted material. The Copyright Office cannot give this permission.
When it is impracticable to obtain permission, you should consider avoiding the use of copyrighted material unless you are confident that the doctrine of fair use would apply to the situation. The Copyright Office can neither determine whether a particular use may be considered fair nor advise on possible copyright violations. If there is any doubt, it is advisable to consult an attorney.
Well onto the story!
A few days after Komui's rant in Lenalee's room he was allowed back inside. "Lenalee what is this?" he asked, pointing at the signature of the letter. He appeared calm on the outside, his face blank, void of any visible emotions.
"Exactly what it says brother." Lenalee stated for the third time now. She was starting to get annoyed. She knew her brother would be angry or upset, but this was getting really bothersome.
"So your saying that filthy octopus is claiming he loves you?" Komui said, anger starting to creep into his voice.
"Brother," she started knowing the next thing she said would probably upset him. "I also love him."
A bundle of emotions played across his face as he registered his sister's last statement. First shock, then sorrow, then eventually– concern?
"Lenalee," he said kindly, but firmly, "Allen isn't safe to be around." "You are not allowed to continue to search for him."
"Wh-Why?" she asked. "You can't tell me not to look for him."
"Lenalee he is becoming the fourteenth, whether we like it or not." said Komui. "Wait... does he know you love him?"
"Y-Yes, why?" she asked. Komui's face paled.
"Because," he said concerned. "When we let General Cross talk to Allen Cross revealed–" he began but was cut off.
"He's supposed to kill the person he loves, I know." She said harshly. "And I don't care. I can take care of myself."
Section Cheif Reever walked down the hallway that seperate rooms for patients were on. 'Komui has to be here, or in the storage room with Komurin.' Reever thought. "He'd better get back here and finish this paperwork or I'm dragging him back." Reever said to himself, clearly annoyed. He reached the room Lenalee was at then stopped when he heard someone shouting.
"Lenalee this is a noah were talking abou-" he began but was interrupted again.
"He's not a noah yet brother!" Lenalee shouted, tears starting to form in her eyes. "I love Allen, why can't you understand that?"
"I'm done debating this with you Lenalee." Komui said tiredly. "I've made up my mind, as your brother and supervisor of the Black Order, I forbid you to search for Allen." "Lenalee I'm only saying this for your safety." Komui said sternly.
"Fine, get out." Lenalee said angrily. "Agreed," another voice said from outside the door. "It's time you finished this paperwork Cheif." Reever ordered dragging Komui out of the room. He'd heard enough to know that Komui would only make things worse.
About a week later the head nurse told Lenalee that she was healed to be released. The wound where the glass had gone through was deep and needed stitches which hadn't been removed yet, but she would just have to come back later on. Her leg that had been in most of the fire was unfortunately scarred badly in several places but it didn't alter her appearance too much.
"Ok great!" Lenalee said to the head nurse with her old smile back.
The news that she had come back had apparently gone around because Miranda, Lavi, even Kanda were waiting outside the doorway. "Hi Lenalee!" he said happily.
"So, I heard you got back." Lavi said, a grin on his face as usual.
"Stupid rabbit, who do you think is standing right in front of you," Kanda growled.
"Geeze Yuu, I was just asking a question rela-" he said then stopped as he came face-to-face with Mugen, Kanda's sword.
"Call me by my first name again and I'll kill you" Kanda threatened then after a moment withdrew and put Mugen away.
"Thank you all for coming down like this" Lenalee said politely. This earned a variety of replies from the others.
Lavi replied trying to look cool. "Sure no problem." He responded casually.
"Che" Kanda muttered in response.
"Oh g-glad I could be of some help Lenalee." Miranda stuttered out.
A group of five people suddenly appeared surrounding the group. Each dressed in the official uniform that the CROW soldiers from Central wear. Lenalee froze as she noticed the other figure in the hallway. Standing there behind the CROW soldiers was none other than Malcom C. Leverrier himself.
"Exorcist Lenalee Lee, you are to come with us immediately," Leverrier ordered. "You are being tried with treason for deserting the Order."
