This is my second fic, but this one focuses mainly on the Noah. In a nutshell, Road, Tyki, Lulubell and Jasdebi were recreated after the war ended. However, Lulubell goes behind the other Noahs' backs and does something that gets her siblings angry. Now the Noah family decides to take Lulubell's genes and transfer them to someone else, someone Tyki was once acquainted with. This is a D GraymanXDeathnote crossover. I do not own the characters used from these mangas/animes. Enjoy!
Prologue: The Transfer
Ayumi had no idea what had just happened to her. One minute, she was explaining to her boss why she'd missed almost an entire week of work, and the next, she was collapsed on the floor, clutching her head in pain. This wasn't the first time she'd collapsed like this, but it was by far the worst.
She'd been in quite a funk for a while now. She hadn't seen Matt or Mello in forever, mainly because she'd been avoiding them. She still hadn't forgiven Matt for what he'd done or Mello for lying to her about it. She ran out of their apartment in a blur of tears, anger and despair. Then the ground was pulled out from under her and she was out cold.
That was when Ayumi had first seen one of the Clan of Noah, though she didn't know that that was who he was. All she saw was a handsome looking man in a tuxedo who'd carried her inside after happening upon her unconscious form. He intrigued her, but not enough to actually attempt to get to know him. She couldn't trust strangers that easily anymore, not since she'd cut off communication with her overbearing parents who couldn't accept the fact that she was an adult and didn't need them nosing around in her business.
Her boss had long since called for help. Ayumi could feel blood trickling through the hands that held her throbbing head. Unsteadily, she rose and looked at the mirror on the wall of her boss' office. There were marks on her forehead and they were bleeding like crazy. A sudden wave of fear ran through her, and without thinking, she started to run towards the exit, forgetting everything, her purse (with a handgun in it), her job, and her boss calling after her. People tried to stop her, she could feel them reaching out to grab her arm, but she kicked into high gear and ran as fast as she could to get away from them. She didn't want them to see the marks on her forehead. It was strange…they seemed so familiar. But why? She couldn't recall where she'd seen them before.
Matt…Mello…someone, help me… she thought fearfully, bursting out the front doors of the office building and into the rainy streets, please, I need you…I need someone…anyone…
There was someone screaming in her head. Screams of agony, of someone in pain…of someone dying. She couldn't recognize them, and to say the least, she didn't care. The pain in her head was getting worse and she could've sworn that the marks were bleeding even more than before.
I'll take back everything I said to you, I'll forgive you for Koichi…if you'll just be there for me to run into, Matt…Mello, if you catch me, I'll forgive you for lying…just make the pain go away!
"STOP IT!" she screamed. She wasn't sure anyone heard her.
Finally, Ayumi gave into the pain and stopped running, falling onto the wet pavement. She felt the vibrations of footsteps coming towards her, then felt someone pull her into their arms and hold her. Then she fell from consciousness and dove head-first into darkness. The screaming continued for a moment more, then left her in silence.
Tyki stood underneath his sleek, black umbrella with Jasdero and Debitto on either side of him. He'd seen Ayumi run from the office building, and felt her hit the ground when she collapsed onto the street.
"Looks like the transfer was a success." He said quietly, taking a cigarette from his coat pocket and putting it between his teeth.
"Heh…she runs fast." Debitto added, smirking.
Jasdero smiled in turn. "Very fast. Hee hee!"
"So, Nee san, you think she'll do?"
The taller Noah nodded, lighting the cigarette. "I think so. She's perfect."
People were gathering in a crowd around where Ayumi had fallen. Her boss was holding her, shouting for someone to call an ambulance until his voice grew hoarse. Passersby were looking on in shock and horror, thinking that this girl was a torture victim or something. She certainly looked like one. Such wounds on her forehead! Who could've done this?
As the three were watching, Tyki suddenly blinked, then shook his head. The twins looked up at him.
"Road's ready. Go on, you two. Get Ayumi."
"Roger."
"Hee hee!"
That said, Jasdero and Debitto disappeared from underneath the umbrella, running faster than the human eye could distinguish. But Tyki could see them perfectly as they zigzagged through the crowd and snatched Ayumi from her boss' arms and ran with her in Road's direction. Road was standing on the edge of the next block, her heart-shaped door behind her, shrouded in darkness.
The twins skidded to a stop in front of her. Tyki appeared behind them. Road smiled at them. "All ready, then?"
"As I'll ever be," Tyki replied.
"Yeah, yeah, let's get this over with." Debitto held Ayumi's upper half.
"She's heavy, Road!" Jasdero added, holding Ayumi's lower half.
Road whirled around and pushed the door open. "Then let's get out of here before the spell wears off."
Slowly, the Noah walked silently through the door, not looking back as behind them, just as slowly, real time started to resume. The minute the door closed, Ayumi's boss realized that Ayumi was not there. He looked around him in a panic. Where had she gone? Other people did the same thing, looking both confused and uneasy. It was as if she'd disappeared into thin air.
In a sense, she had.
