Changed

Chapter 1

Different

It was raining. The wind could be heard everywhere in the Black Order even from her hospital room. Yes, it was another starless and rainy night in which she would not get any sleep at all. Even though she started these "secret" training sessions just to get stronger and for herself she had to admit that there was another reason – him. He called her a word she had never thought she would hear from him – burden. That word had been echoing in her mind since the moment they had left her sitting in the hallway all alone feeling guilty and not loved. She had to admit that that day changed her.

As the wind blew once again she decided to try and get at least a little sleep tonight because tomorrow she was going to see her "friends" and the one person who hurt her very much. Despite him having broken her heart, she knew that she still loved him.

In spite of all her efforts, she could not fall asleep. Tears rollеd down her cheek all night long and through sobs she whispered his name repeatedly until she fell into a sleep filled with nightmares.

The sun rose above the horizon and filled her hospital room practically being hers since she had been spending every single night there since the day the left. The sun's light landed on her face making her hide under the covers. She laid there for a while and decided to get up. After she had put on her black sleeveless dress, which were just a few centimeters above her black boots she exited her room and headed for the training room, which was, build for her and surprisingly she was the only one who used it. Maybe the answer was that she was the only exorcist in the Black Order who had not gone on that two-year mission. She really wanted to go but after losing control over her innocence, she did not want to risk her friends' lives. In addition, after she had been called burden by Kanda and saw in the eyes of everyone else that they had agreed she had ditched that idea and went to cry. That was when Rondo had found her and offered to teach her how to control her innocence and get even stronger than she had ever imagined how she could say no to that. Moreover, that was how it all started – watching through tears how her so-called friends took their leave and getting a chance to become stronger. Although she did accomplish that she paid a high price – she lost her smile. For about two years, she had not smiled even once. She wore her hair down. She ditched the exorcist's uniform and now was wearing a black short dress and an even darker black colored cape with a hood that she used to cover her face every time she walked down the abandoned halls of her once happy and peaceful home.

While she remembered that day, she had already reached the training room. There was Rondo waiting for her as always. She tried to smile but no she could not do it no matter how

hard she tried. Rondo but smiled at her. Unfortunately, it was only for a mere second.

"- You are up earlier than usual. – He commented."

" - I wanted to practice the deadly tornado. My landing is not very good. I either loose balance or hurt my legs, which are both unacceptable. Could you watch closer and focus on the landing instead of the way I jump or how fast I spin, please?"

"- Of course but is that what you want. Your energy still is not enough for more than three or four tries. After that you will have to stop and-"

"- That is not an option. There is no time for breaks."

"- But-"

"- I said NO!" – she screamed after she had cut him off for a second time.

Rondo just sighed and ran his fingers through his brown hair. His silver eyes followed the girl as she went into the room. That was how another training session began.

Outside in front of the gates were Kanda, Allen, Lavi and Miranda. They were the only survivors of the battle, which went on for about two whole years.

When the four reached the gates, they shortly opened which made Allen and Lavi scream and hug each other. Sweat had formed on their foreheads before they broke a part. Miranda had jumped in Kanda's arms and as he was putting her on the ground when Komui's voice was heard from the speaker right above the gates saying:

- Welcome home. I believe you already know that you are the only exorcists left including my little sister. These two years were tragic I have to admit but thanks to the courage of all the exorcists who died and yours too we are now safe. The earl is going to strike again I am sure of that but he will need a lot of time. Only he and Road are left along with Tyki Mikk. Although that is a bit worrying considering the fact that they are very fearsome warriors I know that you might have chance to survive in a battle with them and you could even win but that means that you must practice all your new attack and defense strategies in the new build training room. Rondo is a scientist like me but he is a lot more capable and knows a lot more than me. He could help you evolve or get stronger in no time but remember that first you need to rest. I wish you all a nice day.

After Komui had stopped talking and checking all of them they all headed for their rooms to get a good afternoon nap or a nice sleep in Allen and Lavi's case. Miranda went to grab something to eat while Kanda decided to check out the training room and that Rondo person. All four of them had forgotten all about Lenalee but soon they were going to remember her and see how much she had changed.

As Kanda was walking through the old stone halls of the Black Order, he heard a sound, which sounded as though someone had been crushed by a huge stone. Then he heard a man's scream which made him start running. When he got to the place where he had heard the scream, he saw two people. One of them looked like a scientist which meant that he was probably Rondo and the other one was wearing a black cape, which covered all of his/her body and that was the reason why he could not recognize who this person was.

"- Which one of you is Rondo?" – asked Kanda the anger obvious in his voice.

"- I am Rondo". – answered the scientist with a calm voice. – What do you seek here exorcist? Are not you supposed to be resting?

"- Yes at least that is what I am expected to be doing but I prefer to come here and see what this so-called training room really looks like."

"- I see. Well, as you can see there is a lot of technology here, which lets me observe all of your mistakes and the way your attacks evolve. Of course, all of this is still an experiment but one exorcist has been practicing here every single day for the passed two years and this exorcist has got better in any way possible."

"- Be more specific." – told him Kanda but it sounded more as an order not a request.

Rondo sighed and continued:

"- This exorcist managed to get the synchronization with her innocence which was before she had started training with me 45% to 100%."

Kanda's eyes widened. When his surprise vanished, he regained his emotionless composure and asked:

"– Are you that exorcist?"

The masked one just nodded and before Kanda could say, anything out of nowhere came Lavi and Allen. Both of them had a bright light in their eyes and said in unison:

"- WHEREISHTISNEWEXORCIST!"

Kanda grabbed his mugen at the two saying:

"- If you two scream again, your heads will be chopped off in a second."

Lavi and Allen had sweat form on their foreheads and cooled down when Kanda removed his katana away from their necks. After that, Lavi whined:

"– Jeez Yuu can't you stay calm and not point that thing at us for at least one day. "

For his courage, Lavi was rewarded with a glare. It was not a death glare but still a glare.

"– Yea Kanda. Lavi is right. Cannot you just-"

"– Shut up stupid been sprout and you too idiotic one-eyed rabbit."

With that, those three started arguing until Rondo screamed:

"– Shut the fuck up all of you!"

At that, they decided to stop. Kanda preferred to stop because of he continued his would be deaf by tomorrow morning.

"– Hey I did not see you there. My name is Lavi and this is my best friend Allen."

"– Nice to meet you." – said Allen.

"– Kanda."

Lenalee did not answer. Uncomfortable silence filled the room until Allen spoke again.

"– This is really nice. Now we will be five and no single enemy we face will stand a chance. Finally but I feel bad for Lenalee though since she died.

At those words she gasped. Dead. No way was she dead. She was alive and standing now in front of them. Sure, it was normal for them to forget her but this was unacceptable and unforgivable to think that she was dead.

"– You are really unbelievable." – She started. – It has been only two years and you think I am dead."

At that, they were all shocked and huge gasps were heard. Lenalee continued:

"– Do not think I am going to become part of your team. I fight alone now. Moreover, you could only slow me down and prevent me from wining faster. I wish you all a good night. See you tomorrow morning."

After she had exited the room a thought stroke Kanda and the other two Lenalee was not dead, she was alive and not only was she different but she had changed completely over these two years.
