My first ongoing D.Gray-man fic. Hope I can keep up with it. Enjoy.
Warning: If you hate OCs, you'd best not read. You might end up tearing your hair out or something.

It was raining, the day they got back. You could close your eyes and hear the soft 'splash' of the water falling on the stone street. A cool mist hung in the air, as did the silence of the town. This was the place.
Everything here was wet in the early spring. Almost dangerously so. Floods were not too uncommon. But somehow, the two felt more at home here than anywhere else.
Perhaps that was because it was where they had grown up.
There was a soft chorus of swears from the two as the rain suddenly picked up; this too, didn't surprise them much. The twins simply put up the hoods of their jackets and stared on.
"Debitto?" a small voice asked. The black haired twin turned to the blond.
Jasdero continued. "Why are we here, Debitto?"
The black haired Noah mumbled his response. "You know why we're here… The Earl told us to look for Innocence here."
There was silence from his twin.
"But, Debi… Why here?"
But his brother did not have an answer for him.
"Oi, Cassie, can you take the trash out?" a voice called through the kitchen of the restaurant. A slender, blond haired girl looked up and grimaced.
"Eh, why me? Isn't that Toko's job?" she called back.
"Toko's busy with customers. Hurry, we're really busy today."
The blond woman let out a sigh, and stared with annoyance at the pile of trash bags in the corner. "So we meet again, garbage…" she muttered, and picked them up to dump them out back.
After she had finished her task of disposing of the offending junk, she glanced up at the bit of sky she could see above the ally walls. For the first time in three days, the sun had decided to show, and though it was still wet, the rain had stopped and it was warming up a bit.
"Finally…" she muttered to herself. She was about to go back inside the restaurant, when she stopped, feeling the presence of someone, or something, watching her.
She quickly turned around, staring off into the darker parts of the ally. In the small village, almost everyone knew each other, and people didn't pass through very often. There weren't such things as muggers or thieves, and one didn't have to worry about being alone past dark like you would in other, larger towns. But then why did she get the feeling that she should be worried now?
After waiting, and neither seeing nor hearing anything, she shrugged and turned around. Probably nothing.
But then she heard it. A wolf-whistle, a laugh, and before she could turn around she felt the cloth of her short skirt being turned up. She let out a gasp of surprise and embarrassment, her face burning red, and whipped her head around, but the two boys were already running away laughing their heads off.
Cassie just stood there for a moment, her face burning with rage and shame, while she stared at where the two had disappeared. A black-haired boy and a long haired blond boy. The strangest part being that she didn't recognize them. In a town that small, you would have seen every member at least once, even if you didn't know them by name.
But she did not know those two, and it worried her.
"Oi, Cassie, what's taking so long?" a soft voice called, and a long, black-haired girl poked her head around the door. "Manager said we're busy…" her voice trailed off when she saw how flustered her older blond friend was.
"Cassie, what's wrong?" the girl asked, concerned.
Cassie turned to her. "Hey, Toko? Do you know two boys around your age with short black hair and long blond hair?" she asked.
Toko blinked. "No…" she said slowly. "What happened? You looking to pick up some guys?"
Cassie gave her an annoyed look. "No." she said, and explained what had happened. Toko listened with concern, until she had finished.
"I wonder who they could be… Anyway, maybe we'll ask around and warn some of the other girls about them… Perverts like that shouldn't be left unchecked." Toko said with a strong smile. Cassie grinned.
"Yeah. I'll talk to Manager about it."
"And if you see them again, yell for me. I'll come and kick their little asses for you." Toko said seriously. Cassie giggled.
"The image of you kicking boys' asses in your waitress uniform is one that would have anyone laughing." her friend said, making Toko frown.
"What? I could so beat them up! It's just a couple of boys my age, right? I could go through five or ten of them before breakfast!"
Cassie waved her hand, dismissing the subject. "Right, right. C'mon, we have to get back to work or Manager will yell at us again."
Toko grinned. "Right."
Back in another empty ally, the twins were hooting with laughter.
"Did you see her face? She was so not expecting that!" Debitto said through his fits of laughter.
"Yeah! Nice panties too." Jasdero giggled, which only made the two laugh harder.
"This job ain't so bad after all. We look for some Innocence, goof off, and we don't have to worry about finding that stupid General." Debitto said, grinning.
"That was Cassie, right?" Jasdero asked, finally calming down, but still grinning.
"Yeah. Man, Jas', did you see how much she's grown?" Debitto asked, whistling as he outlined the curves of a woman's body in the air. Jasdero burst out laughing again.
"You guys aren't doing your job right, you know." A deep voice said from behind them. The twins whipped their heads around to stare at the speaker.
"You saying you could do any better?" Debitto growled, making a rude hand gesture at the older, curly haired Noah.
"Not better. Faster." Tyki Mikk said with a sigh as he lit a cigarette. "You two can't play here forever. The Earl wants you to make it quick so you can get back to your other mission."
Debitto growled again. "Yeah, yeah…" he muttered.
Tyki inhaled deeply, and slowly exhaled smoke. "And besides, I like women more like this." he said as he outlined a figure with even bigger breasts and a larger hip curve.
The twins were silent for a moment before they burst out laughing again. Tyki grinned. He didn't usually get along with the little monsters, but they had their moments.
"You guys got it? I don't want to have to babysit you two." he said, more seriously.
Debitto wiped tears of laughter from his eyes. "Yeah, yeah. We got it."
"And try not to get too attached to anything."
The twins nodded simultaneously. It was something he didn't have to warn them about.
"Right, see you." And with that the older Noah gave them a quick wave as he phased through the wall behind him, leaving the twins alone once more.
R&R, please.
