A/N: I never thought I'd actually write this story. Kanda-Allen-LaviXLenalee?? That's pretty complicated. But I couldn't get it out of my head, so here it is...and from this point, I have no idea who the winner will be in the end. I love all three pairings dearly, okay maybe AllenxLenalee more, but don't worry i have a good reason for all of them to happen.

This chapter basically tells whats going on in their lives and head. And if i get enough R/R, I'll move on...this will be a vvveeerry long story. I think.

Disclaimer: If i owned D.Gray-Man...you wouldn't know it existed...

It was pouring to no end, once more. The location of the new headquarters consisted of awful storms that lasted weeks. The nights were cold, dark and had thunder booming in the background. It was nights like these that had Lenalee Lee waking up from her usual nightmares- an unlikely universe with no sound, which had ruins she knew so well- and running to the science department.

One place in this castle that cleared her heart from worry was her brothers department. Seeing all the science workers being thrashed around the room by continuous orders cheered her up. Sometimes Komui was nice enough to let them take naps...sometimes that is.

Tearing her eyes away from the windows, Lenalee gazed steadily at her brother. "Nii-san..." she mumbled, shifting her body into a more comfortable position on top of the paper bed she created for herself.

Komui inhaled sharply, "Yes, my dear sweet Lenalee-chan?" his choice hinted slight annoyance. For once in his entire life, Komui has grown irritated at his little sister, due to her repeated questions.

Lenalee never meant it on purpose. After a few battles as an Exorcist, the Order finally confirmed she was the carrier of the Heart. Nevertheless, banning her from the battlefield for safety and security from The Millennium Earl; boredom nauseating her and those around her.

"Nii-san...when are they coming back?" she was referring to the most precious people in her life.

Allen Walker. Lavi. And Yuu Kanda.

They were assigned a mission, one that required Innocence. And easy task even she could do alone. But no, the war was dangerous, even if it was at an end, the Heart must not be carelessly strolling the streets of Russia.

"...I've talked to them through Tim...it seems they retrieved the Innocence. But due to the storm the train in Moscow was delayed..." Lenalee groaned. She just wanted to see them once more, to say 'Welcome Home'. To see Allen smile brightly and hear Lavi's jokes and Kanda's complaints. Its been weeks...

"When they come back...maybe you could send all four-"

"Lenalee..." Komui sighed. In the corner of the room Johnny gave a loud snore and rolled over his head so it faced the wall. Komui stared at his sister, "We cant go through this again..."

Lenalee swung her leg over the paper and made her way across the room. "But Nii-san, whats the point? Of being and Exorcist? I feel like I'm ten years old all over again. I feel trapped."

Komui winced at the last sentence. He knew her pain, and it hurt him too. But what was he suppose to do?

Lenalee went on, "Just send me on a simple mission...Level ones. I don't care!"

"The Noah-"

"The Noah are gone." She interrupted.

Komui smiled, "Wrong. There is two more!" He said as if it should be something to be proud of. "Besides, don't ask me anymore, okay? I'm not in charge of you."

Lenalee slackened her grip on the table, "Because I belong to the Pope." she muttered through gritted teeth. With one last pained expression at her brother, she spun around and made her way out of the room.

It was selfish, indeed. But never in her life has she felt so useless. Although, ironically, she was the most important person in this war. It also didn't help her situation that her brother was affected by her moodiness. Right now, all Lenalee wanted was to be in the presence of her friends. More than anything.

The war with the Millennium Earl has been going on for ages. Through the centuries, not once has there been a 100 chance of victory for the Order. The thirteen Noah have all been wiped out by countless Exorcists, all but two. Yes, the Earl remains, but his akuma plant doesn't. With all these reasons, including the Heart having to be in the hands of the Order, there is no doubt that the Earl will fail.

These were the times for something new in the dark organization. A chance for hope. For peace. For pure happiness...and maybe some romance...

"Lavi..." Allen sweat dropped at the scene he was observing. "Lavi...what the heck...are they..."

"Doing?" Lavi leaned in, smirking at Allen's idioticy, "Wahhh? Allen, dont tell me you've never seen, no, heard about that kind of stuff?"

Allen glared at his red headed teammate, "Of course I have, Lavi! But why show it in public!?"

Two seats away, Kanda 'tched' and glanced away. Lavi contained his laughter, "Allen! It's a new century! Well, almost. People these days have changed."

Allen shook his head in disbelief. Sure he had his dirty thoughts...once in a while...but to show them in public? Has the world gone crazy? Wasn't it a bid rude? More importantly, wasn't it a sin?

"Doesn't your Master do these kinds of stuff, bean sprout?" Kanda muttered, to everyone's surprise.

Allen, shaken with anger, hissed, "My. Name. Is. Allen." When no one commented on his usual remark, Allen sighed, "I always thought my Master was different, out of question. What he did does is what Cross Marian does. He was different." Lavi shifted positions on his seat, "Is this what humans are now a days? If so..."

The words hung in the air, as the three Exorcist pondered. It wasn't really in their place to judge humans... doing what they do. But life has really gone insane. What happened to the almighty God, and the rule of the Bible. Were the Exorcists the only beings on this world who chose that path?

The couple broke apart and seeing as no one obliged to their actions, ran into a dark alley of the stormy night, and disappeared in the mist.

Kanda shrugged off the previous tension and got off his chair, "Trains here."

Lavi and Allen sighed in unison and followed up. Things may be coming to a close, but who knows what lies before these innocent souls once the gate of war closes and a new gate opens. They focused too much on the present, never thinking about the future.

The golem jumped in the air as the intercom announce the arrival of the three Exorcists. Lenalee jumped off her bed, so excited she forgot she was still in her pj's. It didn't matter...they were here!

Too impatient to run, Lenalee summoned her Dark Boots and flew through the corridors. Her destination was the bottom of the castle where the Finders come and go in their boats. Landing neatly on the ground, Lenalee opened the gate and searched for a white head, red head, and Kanda...(His hair blended in the dark.).

"Lenalee!" She spun around at her name. And yes they were there. As expected Kanda was scowling looking away, Lavi was grinning hugely, while Allen studied his female comrade with a smile.

Lenalee pondered on who should she run to first and hug... it was immature of her...she was just too happy... so she settled in just saying:

"Welcome Home!"
