CHAPTER 1: Aurora Mille
The Millennium Earl had called all the Noah Clan to dinner that day, he had a very important mission to give everyone.
At the dinner table were the Earl, Tyki, Road, Skinn, Jasdero, Devit, and Aurora Millie.
Tyki: This better not be another dinner where we just help Road with her homework…
Earl: No, this is a serious meeting this time. Everyone listen up!
The Earl was trying his best to get everyone's attention but everyone was too busy bickering about the food, however, soon Road stepped in control.
Road: EVERYONE! LISTEN UP OR I'LL MAKE SURE THIS DINNER IS THE LAST YOU'LL EVER EAT!
Road's threats left everyone on the dinner table speechless.
Earl: Now that I have everyone's attention. Ahem, I have a very special mission for each of you.
Devit: Mission? What kind of special mission?
Jasdero: Do we finally get to kill people?
Skinn: Finally! but first can we make these meals sweeter!
Road: (irritated) SHUSH!
Earl: I'm going to be giving you each a special exorcist to kill. Our goal is to find the Heart of Innocence and destroy it, and I have a hunch that one of these exorcists may be holding it. It's all your jobs to kill them and destroy their innocence to make sure none of them get in the way of our plans.
Earl randomly passed out cards of their given exorcist to each of the Noah members. The only person who didn't receive a card was Aurora.
Earl: You, Aurora, have a different mission. Because you have abilities none of the other clan members have, I'm ordering you to go in disguise as an exorcist and hinder the others from gathering anymore innocence. If they find more innocence, they may be able to gain new exorcists, which will be a pain... or worst they could stumble upon the Heart of Innocence and we wouldn't want that.
Aurora was a bit hesitant of becoming what could be referred to as a "double agent", but it wasn't like she had any power to refuse the Earl. Tyki had an uncomfortable look on his face.
Road: (whining) NO FAIR! Why does Ora get an interesting mission! I want to be a fake exorcist too!
Earl: Road if you were to go in disguise as an exorcist they could easily find out. From what I could research, the exorcists have some type of mechanism to analyze a person's innocence.
Tyki: (referring to Road) so if they found out that you didn't have any innocence that would really be troublesome…
Road sighed and glared towards Aurora in envy. She didn't understand why it seemed Aurora always had the special attention of the Earl. Road's been in the business for as long, or even longer, as Aurora has.
After the dinner, Aurora went to her chambers to start getting ready for her mission. She was in front of her vanity mirror, brushing her crimson hair. Tyki appeared behind her, grabbed the brush, and helped her brush her hair. Aurora was a bit taken back at this nice gesture.
Aurora: (surprisingly) thanks, Tyki.
Tyki remained silent and continued to stroke Aurora's hair. He added a violet butterfly clip to Aurora's hair after he was finished.
Tyki: (grabs a strand of Aurora's hair and puts it against his lips) A gift from me to you.
Aurora: (shocked) this is a.. surprise.
Aurora was starring at the two of them in the mirror. She understood that she wouldn't be able to see Tyki, or another else in the family, as frequently due to her mission. Unlike the other members in the Noah Clan, Aurora's skin color wasn't a shade of dark green. It was a porcelain color, just like a human's. She preferred this form because of her own reasons. It bugged the other Noah members that Aurora wasn't comfortable in her true skin but Aurora felt more true to herself in her human form than anything else. There was a knock on the door to tell Aurora it was time for her departure.
Aurora: I guess I'll see you later then, Tyki?
Tyki: (laughs) unless I get killed by an exorcist.
Aurora: I think we both know that's highly unlikely.
Tyki grabbed Aurora and brought her into a huge embrace. At first, Aurora found it surprisingly and a little bit strange but she soon learned to enjoy the warmth of Tyki's body against hers.
Tyki: Stay safe Ora, I'll be checking up on you once in awhile.
Aurora nodded as she felt Tyki kiss her forehead, now she felt like she never wanted to leave.
Another knock was heard at the door.
Aurora: I should be leaving now.
Tyki: Just stay, just for a while longer.
Aurora: The Earl wouldn't like that.
Tyki's eyes widen. He almost forgot that his wants were only secondary to the Earl's. Tyki nodded and gave Aurora a "I'll see you later" smile.
