Chapter 1

There was light.

I didn't actually know where I am.

The place where I woke up into was an Ark. Ark? Of all the names that I could give this place, why did I call it Ark even though it looked like a peaceful town? I see no relation with the surroundings itself. The place is peaceful and pure. But the way that the white houses were in lined with each other though uneven in height and the awkward silence, merely makes it suspicious enough for you to become wary of this place. I hate to admit it but, this place, this Ark seemed nostalgic. As if I've been here. Then it struck me, I was alone. This can't be happening. Is this only a dream? No. The things around me are tangible and real. My heart began beating fast. There was someone coming. Quick I have to hide.

A Noah, specifically the Millennium Earl was walking through the empty pavement. I tried getting the closer look but there was another one, this time it was a young girl who wore a straight white night gown that hugged the round-ball like figure that had a creepy smile on his face, as if they were blood related. Blood related. That's why, she was also a Noah. A young Noah, what a tragic fate she could have been more.

"Road-sama" said the talking umbrella.

Road. That's the name of the female Noah. Before I can even process it, another male Noah came. I faintly hear their names, one is Tykki. That is not what I need to worry about; it's their conversation where I should start focusing on. Wait a second, I feel dizzy. My vision is blurring. Why is this happening…?


"Are you alright?" asked a gentle voice.

Opening my eyes I came face to face with a white-haired boy. He looked young, probably the same age as me or even younger. His face was filled with doubt and concern at the same time. I assume that he thinks of me as a threat to him, well I'll find out. There's nothing wrong with trying. I think.

"Yes. I'm fine. Who are you?" I answered even though I'm not.

"Eh? Are you sure? You don't look good right now. My name is Allen. Allen Walker" he disagreed, what a cheeky brat.

"Really? Well if you say so. Sorry but do you know what this place is?" I deliberately asked him right away.

"This is the Ark. It is a dimension of space. Why are you even in here?" a question for a question, well I'll have to answer it. Ark? This is the place in my dream.

"I'm sorry but I kind of lost my memories… crap. I really lost them and he's looking at me full of doubt. I don't really know why am I here, and righ-ugh" my stomach hurts.

"Ah! Are you- you're bleeding! Can you take the pain? We have to stop the flow of blood. Oi! Can you hear me? Wake up..!" I'm bleeding? No way. Is he trying to help me?


I can't hear you properly… I'm sorry.

"Miss? Are you awake? Hello can you here me?" so noisy. Me? All rig/ht? Oh right, I passed on because I bleeding. Bleeding?!

Jolting up from my position, I tried to get up but there was still pain in my stomach specifically my abdomen. My sight is still fuzzy but is starting to clear up; he was still here, beside me. He never left. I wasn't alone all this time… right? Is it okay to think this way?

"Nee Allen? Is it safe to assume that I am not alone? Were you here the whole time? Nee Allen, is it?" Don't cry. Please don't cry. I don't want him to see me crying.

"Yes. It's a very safe way to assume that miss. By the way do you have a name?" he's so gentle.

"You can call me whatever you want to. Anything is fine with me." I don't really care about it. Liar.

"Hmm… I will call you Amaya Mieko, for you despite the night and the rain falling was a blessing to this world." what a nice name...

Allen looked like he was in a hurry. After he named me, immediately he got up and looked around. What is happening to him? Is something wrong Allen? Tell me… I'm your friend right? Since when? During the time that you named me right? Or was I WRONG? This time asking him on what's wrong became harder; it wasn't even worth a try. Once again, my mouth never listens.

"Allen, go where you have to. Open one of the doors and you will be in the place you should be. This is an Ark of dimension and space right? Go. You can leave me in here. I-" I was cut off

"What are you saying? Are you telling me to leave you alone? When you are in are in this state, huh Mieko?" I love that name "Well to bad it's a no. you're going with me. This place is dangerous and you said you lost your memories right? Well, once this is over we'll go retrieve it. You are already a friend of mine. I won't leave you in time of need." you really are a gentle and cheeky brat.

I was found lying on the ground. However the snow never picks the earth where it wants fall on, it's just like you Allen. You never do abandon people even when you have your own problems and you never fail to mesmerize me with every deed you do. I had the choice: to willingly go with you or to be forcefully taken by you. Well here it is:

I'm going.

With you, I felt like I as reborn as a new human being to start a new life and to do the things I wanted to do. I'll acknowledge you for that, Allen Walker. Thank you.

For me to start a new life as Amaya Mieko is unimaginable but right now, it's happening.

"Are you ready" he asked.

"Yes." I answered.

This is how I first met the snow that fell on me.

Allen Walker.
