Everyone was peacefully eating breakfast in the Black Order Headquarters when Komui barged in with another one of his weird robots. This time is was small and round. He had a crazed expression on his face, like he often did the mornings after he spent the entire night building malfunctioning robots.
"I didn't give him his coffee yet. This can't be good." Lenalee shook her head.
"Behold the Innocence Tracker!" Her brother paused to give an evil sounding laugh, "It will help us find potential Exorcists."
Lavi said, "You know, if someone other than you invented it, I might've thought it was a good idea. But most of your inventions end up being, well, hazardous to our health."
Allen, who sat beside Lavi, shuddered behind his tall stack of pancakes, muffins, sausages, toast, scrambled eggs and cereal. He still hadn't forgotten the time Komui gave his robot coffee and the robot attempted to kill him. Lenalee shrugged, "We can try it. If it's defective, I'll just kick it again. At least it doesn't look that dangerous."
"Thank you, my dear Lenalee!" Everyone held their breaths as Komui switched the little robot on. It immediately started flashing a blinding red light. "INNOCENCE! INNOCENCE!" It went from Exorcist to Exorcist like a crazed energizer bunny high on chocolate.
"Komui…" Kanda said, clearly annoyed, "Maybe you shouldn't have turned it on in here. That robot is supposed to look for new Exorcists, not go around annoying the ones we already have."
Their supervisor smiled sheepishly, "Lenalee! Come with me to town so we can look for Exorcists!"
After breakfast, Lenalee, Allen and Lavi went with Komui to look for Exorcists. They knew it was pretty much a lost cause, but there was no point in arguing with Komui. As soon as they were outside, the robot started beeping. It flew down the road that lead to the town near Headquarters. The four of them ran after it. The robot finally stopped near a brick building.
"What now? Do we go in?" Lenalee asked. With her Dark Boots, she was the only one of them who wasn't out of breath. The others looked at each other and shrugged. The building was a restaurant, so the four of them went in.
"Ooooh! That cake looks so good!" Allen Walker picked up a menu and started to sit down at a table.
"You just ate breakfast, remember?" Lavi prodded him. Allen reluctantly let the menu fall back to the table. The robot stopped at the food of a pretty young waitress holding a tray with two cups of coffee. She looked in surprise at the silvery round thing at her foot. The girl wore a short black skirt with a lacy black blouse and a white apron. There was a black and white headpiece in her long bluish black hair. Lavi shouted, "Strike!" at the same time Komui said, "You're an Exorcist! And you're beautiful! My robot works!"
His eyes lit up and he launched himself on her. The waitress gave a little yelp and dropped her tray. One of the cups flipped over and coffee spilled all over the Innocence Tracker. The waitress flicked her wrist at the other one, which froze in midair. Lenalee cringed, then her eyes widened in shock when she saw that the waitress DID have powers. Meanwhile the robot started spinning in circles.
"Lavi, I think there's something wrong with the robot. Komui's inventions usually don't like coffee…" Allen Walker was scared.
"MUST. KILL. EVIL." The robot focused on Lavi and little bullets came out of the top.
"Ow! What the hell?" Lavi rubbed his arm.
"MUST. ATTACK. EVIL."
Komui looked over at them, "Oh right, I programmed it to destroy Akuma, but I can't be sure if it works properly."
Allen Walker ran out, followed by Lavi. Lenalee and Komui dragged the schocked waitress out with them. They ran all the way out of town, chased by the robot who periodically tried to kill them. Lenalee sighed and kicked it.
"NOOOOO!" Komui sobbed as another one of his robots was destroyed by his younger sister. The waitress took this chance to bitch-slap him across the face, "What are you? A pimp? If you are, I can probably beat you and your gang up. I have powers."
"We're actually here about your powers. You see, we think you have Innocence, and you can help us fight Akuma." Allen tried to explain.
"What are Akuma?" She still had a suspicious expression on her face, but at least she didn't look like she was going to slap Komui again. Komui opened his mouth, but Lenalee elbowed him before he could speak. Their supervisor wasn't exactly the best at explaining things.
"Hard to say, really. They're souls from dead people who are put into Akuma and are used to kill humans. There's these people called the Noah Clan who hate humans and want to destroy all of us with Akuma. Only people with Innocence can fight them. They're called Exorcists." Lavi said.
"I should get back to work." The waitress looked anxiously towards the town.
"Would you like come with us to see our headquarters after you're done? What's your name? We've been short on Exorcists lately, it'll be nice to recruit a new one." Lenalee asked her.
"I guess. I'll look for you after my shift is over. My name's Cecelia." She reached up to smooth back her hair, then ran back.
"I'm glad you came, Celilia." Lenalee smiled at her.
The other girl smiled back at her, "Figured it'll be interesting."
Komui, Allen and Lavi walked behind the two girls, quietly discussing who was hotter. At least Komui and Lavi were.
Headquarters was in complete chaos when they got there. The people from the science branch ran around in circles, spilling paperwork everywhere, trying to stay out of Miranda Lotto's way. She was screaming, pursued by dozens of evil-looking Innocence Trackers. She couldn't fight against very well, since she only had defence-type Innocence. Most of the other Exorcists were on missions.
"What happened?" Allen gasped.
Reever hurried over to them, "We got a new shipment of gourmet coffee beans. I was going into your office to put a few bags in your cupboard, when I opened the door and those robots tried to come out. I tripped and, well, the coffee beans kinda spilled… But seriously, if all your robots become evil when they eat coffee beans, why do you always give them mouths?"
Lenalee sighed and looked at her brother.
He grinned sheepishly, "I thought they worked pretty well, so I made a whole bunch so we could put them all over the world. And it does work, we found a new Exorcists, see?" He gestured to Cecilia.
Sensing the arrival of more Innocence, the robots swarmed towards them.
"AHHHH! I'M GONNA DIE!" Allen Walker jumped behind the first person he could, which happened to be Komui and wasn't exactly a good shield. Cecilia just looked surprised, and somewhat amused. Lenalee sighed and got ready to destroy more of her brother's stupid mutated inventions.
Well, I'm starting a new story. Hope you liked it. I have no idea how many chapters there's going to be, because they're all oneshots. By the way, Dirty Little Secret is a very good song ^_^
(yes I realize that was totally random, but I'm currently repeatedly listening to songs by the All American Rejects like I do every summer.) Anyway, please review!
