Author's Note:
Hello all,
This is an old story that I've glossed over and cleaned up as best as I could. It was once on my shared account with the friend that I wrote it with but due to unfortunate circumstances we are no longer on speaking terms. I thought it best to deactivate that account by basically removing everything and move the stories onto my account so people could enjoy them.

Prologue
Since before the Great Flood in the Biblical times there has been a war between the two descendants of Man. In order to try and eliminate the danger to the descendants of Man one side created a golden cube with a message: Our descendants; We have battled the darkness, and they are a dying breed. There will be calamity in the future, so we leave behind this message here in order to help you. The Great Flood wiped the earth clean and only the descendants of Noah survived. All those who knew about the golden cube had been wiped from the earth and the cube shattered into 109 pieces, scattering to the far edges of the world.
For a time, the world grew quiet, all things lived harmoniously, or so everyone thought. Then one day the Roman Catholic Church uncovered a piece of the golden cube. With this piece, what was now known as Innocence, the Church founded an order of Exorcists to combat the new threat to the human race: the Akuma. This order of Exorcists, the Black Order, began to search for more pieces of the Innocence and people who were deemed Compatible to use the Innocence as a weapon against the threat to humanity.
During their search, they are confronted with the mastermind behind the Akuma; he is only known as the Millennium Earl. The Millennium Earl and his Family of 12 people who claim to be the true descendants of Noah have taken it upon themselves to rid the world of the "false God" and return it to it's true way. The Noah Descendants are humans who have inherited the genes of Noah who is believed to be Mankind's oldest Apostle. With these genes, the Descendants gain the "memories" of Noah, each gaining an emotion and the superhuman abilities needed to utterly control the Akuma.
Now a Holy War has begun again between the Millennium Earl with his Noah and the weapons called Akuma and the Black Order with their Exorcists and their weapons called Innocence. In which the outcome could affect the World as a whole.
Though there are a hundred and nine pieces of Innocence there are not a hundred and nine Exorcists. An Innocence must choose its compatible user, so for the time being the Exorcists are sent out on a mission to find and retrieve all the pieces of the Innocence to store and keep them safe. The Earl and the Noah are also on the same hunt, but to destroy and not to possess. It is a race against the clock to see who will find the one piece of Innocence deemed The Heart. This one-piece controls all the other 108 pieces of Innocence; if it were destroyed all the Innocence would be destroyed at the same time.
In a last-ditch effort to keep what little Exorcists the Black Order has they began a project called the Second Exorcist Project, a project that would place the brain of a fallen exorcist into an artificially created body. In the process the original person's memories are completely erased to prevent the new "person" from falling into complete madness. These new artificial exorcists have been given the ability to regenerate after massive trauma done to their body, even death. This ability is used to keep the new exorcist from dying during the process of trying to resynchronize the original's Innocence to the new host. Only two were deemed successful before the project was scrapped after a massive backlash.
Now these two Second Exorcists lead the Black Order's exorcists in the fight against the Millennium Earl and his Akuma. They are the best of the best, they are true fighters for the Church, but that is not their true goal. Just before the project was scrapped these two exorcists learned the truth about who they really were. They have kept this knowledge a secret and have been hunting for whatever scrap of evidence of their former life they can find.
The names of these two Second Exorcists? Yu Kanda and Alma Karma.
