It was a dark and overcast evening. the sky was telling tales of a violent storm to come later that night. out on the nearby beach, a girl lay in
the sand unconcious. she had been washed up from somewhere out in the ocean from a prior storm? If she was not found or become lucid,
surely the storm to comewould consume her. at this point a gentle rain began..
-meanwhile-
Miranda Lotto strolled down the boardwalk in hopes to find something to bring home as a present to a fellow exorsist at the black order. It was
going to be Lenalee Lee's birthday celebration that night and Miranda wanted to present her with something nice to show her friendship. As she
walked, a small glimmer caught her eye. There was a jewlry store with a small silver and black cross suspended on a durable black cord.
scampering in, Miranda immidiately bought the necklace and walked out releived. small drops of rain began to fall ut of the ominous dark sky.
"Oh no! If I dont get back soon I'll be soaked to the bone! I suppose I'll have to take the shortcut after all..." and with that miranda scurried to
the beach pathway.
All she could do was stop and stare. finally she randown to the figure laying on the beach. "Allen! Oh my god Allen are you okay?" she stopped
short. apon closer inspection, this was not theperson she was thinking of. This was a girl. she had silver white hair like Allen Walker, another
exorcist at the order, and evenapperared to bethe same age. In her hand she had a crumpled peice of paper, preserved from the rain that had
picked up in her fist. Miranda carefully plucked it out of her hand and opened it up. It was for the dark order. realising that this could be another
exorcist, Miranda raced for help. some of the seekers were able tohelp bring herto the order just as the partywas beginning. Mirandaentrusted
the mystery exorcist to the nurses in the hospital wing and hurried to give her gift to knew who this new exocist was. until more was found out,
her existance was to be kept secret from the other exorcists. Until this girl became concious, nobody was allowed to see or know of her with the
exception of a few officials.
-two days later-
The girl finally opens her eyes. and there are plenty of people waiting to question her. "Ah, so youre awake" an unfamiliar voice says...
~}i{~
My eyes are open. I made it... I think to myself. the room I find myself in is small and white. It had to be a hospital room or watever they call it.
The room is bustleing with activity. people are rushing around waiting for something big to happen. A tall guy comes up to me and sits down in a
chair next to the bed. "so you're awake" he says with a kind smile. I wonder who he is and continue to stare. my eyes arent fully open. I'm still
trying to hide the fact thet they're crimson red, which I know I'll eventually fail at. "Welcome to the dark names Komui. I'd like to try and get to
knw you and your objectives here at the order. When You're ready of course. We'd like to get you back to optimum heath before anything
happens. You were pretty badly hurt. Don't thank me though. It was a fellow exorcist named Miranda Lotto who resued you. She found you off
the boarwalk by the beach. If you need to rest still go right ahead. There's no rush at all so whenever you're feeling better just say the word"
with that he smiles. He seemed like a trustworthy person. it was still hard to tell. All my memeories and information was still fileing away in my
head. I closed my eyes and continued to think.
I open my eyes again andlook around the room. My memories are fully assembled and I know exactly what I'm doing here. Its nighttime now
and theres nobody in my room. I slink out of bed and up to the roof. This is my favorite place to stop and think. the moon is barely a quarter full
and the sky is completely clear. leftover raindrops are still falling and the air is still heavy with the latest rainstorm. I silently walk to the edge of
the roof and look down. I can't see the bottom of the building. all there is is a swirling mass of misty fog silently drifting about 200 yards down. I
feel myself walking towards the ledge but I can't seem to stop. Its just a dream. Jst a dream. I keep telling myself that but I can't seem to
control my body slowly moving to the edge or the building anxiety in my head. I finally stop, teetering on the edge of the roof peering into the
fog below. I stood there for a bout 2 more minutes before the teetering begins again. I still cant move any part of me. I topple forward and a
scream escapes my mouth.
Suddenly I stop falling. I'm aware that somebody has caught me before I could fall into that abyss. I look up to see my reflection except for the
fact that the eyes are a dull gray and a red scar is dragged along the left side of the face. It is a boy who smiles and begins to pull me up. a
searing pain rips through my wrists which begin to drip blood. I see two black crosses appearing on my wrists and let go. I begin to fall again
and let out an ear-peircing scream and in a second I open my eyes. I am in my hospital room again. I sit up and look around. I'm alive. Thank the
lord I'm alive. I take a deep breath. I'm ready to talk to that strange Komui guy about whatever he wants.
