(A/N This is my first Black Cat fanfic, be nice!! I know it's short, but I wanted to introduce my new character without going to far into the plot. XD Anyway, review!! Any kind of feedback would be great!

Summary: Its been almost a year since the whole Creed thing ( I go by the manga, not the anime by the way) and everything is going pretty Ok. Train and his friends haven't starved for a while and they can actually pay rent on their many bases, Chronos has finally brought itself back to order but what happens when a new Chronos Number and childhood friend of Train is thrown into the mix?)

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Black Cat, just in case you were wondering :D

Don't Pretend You Know Me

Chapter 1

Memories You Left Behind

"Come on Choo Choo!" A nine year old girl yelled to her ten year old friend. The girl had perfect, milk chocolate ringlets that bounced around in a frenzy as she ran across the field. The boy scowled as he ran after that.

"I told you not to call me that!" He yelled back angrily. The girl just laughed and continued to run, her ocean blue eyes lit up and the boy couldn't help but laugh with her, she always had that effect on him. They continued their game of tag for what seemed like an eternity, just laughing and running, being kids.

The girl suddenly stopped, she was staring at the sun.

"Times up." She said sighing, she was always sad when the two of them had to part. She sighed again and turned to leave.

"Wait!" The boy cried, tears in his eyes. He knew what happened today, he knew what he would see if he went home.

"You know I can't Train." The girl said, she seemed exhausted for some reason.

"I know its just.." His voice trailed off. The girl smiled sadly and she left, leaving Train to his fate.

"Don't go." He whispered softly.

"Don't go." He whispered again before waking up. Train Heartnet blinked a few times, still in that in that state in between dream and reality. He shook his head to clear it, his messy brown hair flicking around dangerously. He sighed. What's with that dream? He thought to himself, then shook the thought off. He was thirsty and that's what mattered right now.

Stumbling through the dark hideout he finally made his way to the fridge. He opened the door and stuck his head in, where is it? I thought I saw it in here earlier... Ah hah!! He grinned as he started to skull an entire bottle of milk. He stopped when he heard footsteps behind him.

"Hey Sven. Whatcha doing up so early?" Train asked, grinning as he turned around to face his partner.

"I was about to ask the same thing." Sven replied, yawning slightly. He had woke up when he heard Train make a racket coming down the stairs. Train just grinned and ran his hand through his messy hair.

"I was thirsty." Sven had to resist rolling his eyes, Train was always ruled by his stomach. As Train moved his head to finish off the milk, Sven noticed something incredibly strange.

"You Ok Train?" He asked. Train looked at him, confused.

"Yea, I feel fine. Why do you ask?" He said, wiping his milk moustache off. Sven looked kind of awkward.

"You're crying."

Morning light filtered into the room and the only occupant slowly opened her eyes, the sun lighting up their ocean blue colour. She groaned slightly as she rolled over, her entire body hurt although that was to be expected. She slowly sat up, groaning even more. Hospital beds were the least comfortable thing she had slept on, and this was including the many times she'd slept on the floor. She sighed and brushed a milk chocolate ringlet from her face, the ringlets reached around the middle of her back and lying down for so long had squished most of them out of shape. She heard someone enter her room and she looked up, it was a doctor.

"Well Miss White, its seems that, with the help of nanomachines, that we have stopped the disease you have from from progressing any further." He said, completely serious. Seeing the instant mix of joy and relief in her eyes he quickly added. "It's no cure but with some rehabilitation you should be back to normal in a matter of months. Although you should be careful with any exercise that you do. You were lucky it hadn't spread to your diaphragm or heart." She nodded, her face becoming a mask before she replied.

"Does that mean I can go back to work?" She asked calmly. The doctor nodded.

"Yes, but you have to take it easy and remember to rehabilitate your body. The life of a big time celebrity such as yourself isn't easy, I would imagine." The doctor said, choosing his words carefully so that she would get the message. The celebrities he had dealt with usually ignored his advice as soon as they left the hospital. But the girl simply nodded.

"Will do." She said softly. "Am I discharged?" She asked after a moment. The doctor nodded.

"Yes, everything is set for your departure." She thanked him and he left her to get changed.

Slowly, she swung her legs off her hospital bed and then stood up only for her legs to buckle underneath her and she started to crumple to the ground. Suddenly there was an arm to catch her before she hit the ground and she slumped against a man's body.

"Thanks Li." She muttered as she tried to stand up again, this time a little more successful.

"Not a problem." He replied, his permanent smile one his face even though his was in one of his many disguises. This one was a twenty year old man with a suntan, blonde hair and green eyes.

"I'll never know how you always know its me." He said in awe. She merely shrugged and made her way into the small bathroom en-suite that led off of her room to get changed.

"It's my secret." She said coyly before closing the door. The Chronos Number merely chuckled and sat on her bed and waited for her.

A few minutes later she came out in a flowing floral tee that hung off her shoulders and denim shorts. She sat next to Li and put on the finishing touches to her make up.

"I don't understand all the trouble you go through to look prettier than you already are." He mused. Now it was her time to chuckle, he had a point. Every part of her was like an expertly made doll, from the porcelain like skin to her perfect facial features and the fact that she always had colour in her cheeks and lips. Even without the expensive clothes and make up she would look almost perfect.

"Its for the press." She answered. "They expect me to try hard so I might as well try a little." Li shook his head in amazement at the girl, all this trouble for a life that wasn't even hers.

"Why are you here anyway?" She asked as she started to brush her hair, after each stroke the ringlets would bounce back into perfection. Li smiled.

"Sephiria asked me to pick up our newest member." He answered. She chuckled as she tossed her hair to the other side of her neck to get the knots there. The action revealed a XI tattoo on the back of her neck. Li stood up.

"Come on Annalise, it's time to go."
