Hevlaska's Choice
AN/
Here's the new Hevlaska's Choice! Remember though, this is all in italics until the end, and will probably only have five chapters or so. Think of it as a… prequel …to 'Home Sweet Home'.
This is dedicated to Rein Walker and Eien no Akumu, who gave me the motivation to type this up and post it. Thanks guys! ^.^
For those of you who don't remember (and I wouldn't blame you if you didn't, since I hadn't updated the original 'Hevlaska's Choice' in FOR-EV-ER!) Jez (Jezebel Wolfe) has platinum blonde hair with red and black highlights, as well as midnight blue eyes. Dani (Danielle Xavier) has dark brown, almost black, hair with purple and white highlights, as well as a black left eye, and a silver right eye which she hides behind her bangs. Dani is also the one with parasitic type Innocence in her right arm, so it appears to have a slight grayish hue to it. She was, however, caught in a fire when she was younger, when her school was sent up in flames, so people often think her arm was a result of the fire.
Hope that refreshes your memory! Please enjoy the new chapter one!
Chapter One –
{Jez's P.O.V.}
I remember when my best friend Dani and I first came to the Black Order… We had suddenly just fallen out of the sky and into Hevlaska's chamber. Needless to say, we were shocked to find out that the thousand year old Exorcist had taken us from our world and brought us here to fight in a war because we possessed something called 'Innocence'.
Throughout the months that passed during our time there, Dani and I grew very close to everyone at the Order. Lenalee, Allen, Lavi, Kanda, Bookman, Komui, Miranda, Krory, Marie, Jeryy, Reever, Johnny and many others were always a constant presence in our new life. They made us feel welcome, and we had almost completely forgotten that we weren't even of their world by the time we had been there for four months.
Of course, we could never really forget about that seemingly simple fact. We had a home with friends and family back in that other world. Even though my old life was rather painful, having Dani by my side made things better. My mother would occasionally beat me, but usually just ignored me and focused on my little sister – her pageant-winning daughter – Luna. I was fine with that though.
Dani's life was less painful, but more lonely. Her father was a Marine and had died at sea, leaving her and her mother with only each other. Her mother worked hard to sustain the two of them, often leaving Dani alone. She would be gone for possibly a year or more at a time, only conversing with her only child through emails at the end of each month. Dani pretended not to care; built walls around herself that very few could see through to the fragile girl within. I could see that it hurt her to have virtually no parents, but she was strong and never let herself sink into depression.
We had had a lot of good times at the Order. I laugh every time I think about how Kanda and I had pretended to date to get on Lavi's nerves. Of course, Kanda only went along with it to give Lavi punishment for calling him 'Yu' all the time. When I had revealed that it was all a joke at the Christmas party, I could tell Lavi was having mixed emotions. He looked somewhat relieved that it wasn't real, but at the same time upset at how I toyed with him and confused about why he even cared. I still didn't know, even to this day.
Going on missions was so exciting, since no sane person would ever do this back in our real world. Dani and I were paired together a lot, but sometimes Allen, Lavi, Lenalee, or even Kanda would be placed with one of us.
Everything went relatively well for a war. Dani, Lenalee, Allen, Lavi, Kanda, Bookman, Miranda, Krory, Marie and I had all somehow managed to stay alive. I was getting used to living on the edge, as if it were natural, and I could tell Dani was feeling perfectly at home too.
When She showed up though, everything changed.
Road Camelot; the Noah of Dreams.
Road had a thing for toying with Exorcists, especially Allen. She couldn't resist coming to 'play' with us. She thought it'd be fun.
It wasn't – not in the slightest.
Komui had heard of a Noah being located in Britain, and had sent Dani, Allen, Lavi, Kanda, Lenalee and I to investigate and perhaps even gain the upper hand in this war if we were lucky. I don't know why he sent his little sister in the line of fire, but Lenalee didn't object. She was more than willing to go, feeling the need to fight alongside and protect her friends and family.
I suppose we shouldn't have ticked Road off, but how were we supposed to know what she would do? How were we to know that she would take 'getting rid of us' that far?

I know it's short… but this is a prequel! I've already started with chapter two, so it should be up soon so I can start on Home Sweet Home.
