~A New Beginning~
Levrier Academy, the academy which nurtures and produces Exorcists to fight against Akuma and prepare the war against the Akuma producer, The Destroyer of Time. Today is the day which their path as a student ends and as an Exorcist begins.
"Lauren Light." Rinoa Highwind announces one of the ready-to-be Exorcist's names.
A confident-looking gentleman stood up from his seat and receives his badge to proof that he is ready to be an Exorcist.
"Congratulation, I will be looking forward to your performance as an Exorcist." Irvine Levrier said with expectation, following by his charming smile.
"Argh, not one of his charming smiles again. For God sake he is the chairman for both Levrier Academy and Black Order, he should be more serious." Rinoa thought while shaking her head.
"Lavi" Rinoa carried on her duties.
But there was no sign of anyone of getting up from his chair and coming to the stage.
"Lavi, please come up immedialety!" Rinoa repeated impatiently. But there was still no presence of Lavi
"Hey, Allen-kun, where's Lavi?" Lenalee mumbled.
"I don't know, maybe he is still sleeping!?" Allen replied.
*BANG*
Suddenly, the peace and tranquility was shattered by a huge noise behind the grand hall. All visions focused on the person and dark looks appeared on their face.
"Ahhh, I am late, did I make it in time!?!" Lavi exclaimed.
Lavi noticed that the surrounding atmosphere was not right and quickly ran towards his friends.
"Allen, Lenalee, Yuu!! I was so looking forward to today, so I wasn't able to sleep well enough yesterday! I slept in late so I was in a hurry! I hope I make it in time!" Lavi explained.
"Stop calling my first name or I slice you into half, you stupid rabbit." Kanda glared out a cold look, ready to draw out his Senbonzakura (Thousand Cherry Blossom).
"Still scary as ever" Lavi mumbled and broke into cold sweat.
Suddenly, there is a sharp pain at one of Lavi's ears. It was Rinoa who drag Lavi up to the stage.
"Ouch, ouch, okok, I know how to walk, stop pulling my ear, it hurts." Lavi yelled and covered his ear while he walked towards Irvine to get his badge.
"Are you all right, did that violent woman there hurt you? If she does, I will revenge for you." Irvine broke out into an evil grin. Before Lavi could finish his sentence, there was an evil aura standing behind Irvine.
"What did you say just now? Who is the violent woman? Hmmm…." Rinoa asked in a pleasant manner but any wrong move will cause the volcano to erupt.
"Oh, nothing, nothing, you must have heard wrongly. Right, Lavi?" Irvine winked to Lavi while he replied.
"Ye…yeah!" Lavi lied.
But the situation got worse, Rinoa lifted up her file and strongly smashes onto both of their heads and causes a bump on their heads. "You, how can you set such a bad example for your juniors! And you, how can you lie even though you are told to!"
After being reprimanded, Rinoa walked away.
"Why am I caught in this too? OUCH!" murmured Lavi.

"Finally it's over, but we are going to be Exorcists soon, don't you think is exciting, Allen-kun." Lenalee smiled.
"Yeah, but all those stuff have made my stomach growling, I need to eat something soon or I will stave to death." Allen replied while lying on the floor.
"Heh heh, Allen-kun." Lenalee returned with a bitter laugh.
"Tch, no wonder you are just a tiny little beansprout that no one can notice at all." Kanda criticized Allen without thinking twice.
"My name's Allen, Baka-Kanda!?! Oh yeah, I forgot that your brain's as slow as the rest of you. Maybe I shall worship you as The Prince of Retard." Allen retorted.
"That's some attitude you've got there. I'll show you who the dumb shit here is really. I'll chop off that white hair of yours and sell it to some old geezers!" Kanda replied, ready to draw out his Senbonzakura (Thousand Cherry Blossom).
"Wouldn't selling black hair get you a better deal?" Allen countered back.
"For your insolence, I'll leave only one strand behind." Kanda responded.
"Grrrr…. Stop fighting, you two!" Lenalee yelled.
Miraculously, Kanda and Allen stopped quarrelling immediately. Even since in the past, it has been always like this, whenever Allen and Kanda quarrel, Lenalee was the only remedy.
"Tch, I can't be bothered with you." Kanda then coldly walks off away.
"Yuu-kun, how can you be so rude to your dearly friends?" Tiedoll said.
"Please move, Tiedoll-sensei."
"Oh, come on, don't be like that. I came here to congratulate my adorable kids in becoming Exorcists." Tiedoll begins patting on Kanda's head as a means of reward.
"I'm not your kid and stop patting my head!" Kanda warned.
"Oh, you are my favorite student after all. Don't be so cold to your sensei; you can treat me like a father if you want." Tiedoll teases and pokes Kanda's cheek.
"I… I… I can't stand that side of you!" Kanda began to rage out
"KANDA! STOP BEING RUDE TO THE SENIORS!" Lenalee shouted.
"…" Kanda began to cool down.
"Looks like you are the only one who can control Yuu-kun. Lenalee-chan, pass me your techniques too."
"Haha, it's really nothing, Tiedoll-sensei." Lenalee blushes.
"Oh my god, such an unlucky day. To think I was being embarrassed in front of the whole school even during my graduation ceremony. I surely will appoint it as my most "memorable memories"." Lavi signed as he walked towards his group of friends.
"Cheer up, Lavi. How about a scrumptious meal in the cafeteria to have a change of mood? Since Allen-kun is hungry too." Lenalee smiled.
"Well…" Before Lavi can finish his sentence, a huge smack befalls on his back.
"Ouch! Hey, I have suffered enough injury so you better… Eh, onii-chan (brother)!" Lavi was shocked to see his brother in front of him.
"My foolish little brother. Looks like you have become an Exorcist. But to warn you first, being an Exorcist is tough, are you ready?" Kira asked.
"Heh heh, of course. What do you think I am?" Lavi smirked at his brother.
"Stop being so overconfident of yourself!" Kira flicked Lavi's forehead.
"Ouch, it's hurt. Stop torturing me, Onii-chan!"
In the meantime, many females are staring at Kira.
"Hey, isn't he cool? I hope he can be our leader if there is a mission." One of the females mumbled.
"Ahhh, I now understand the meaning of love at first sight." One of the females fainted upon Kira's pretty appearance.
"Onii-chan, you have attracted too much attention yourself. I don't understand why girls like you so much" Lavi said jealously.
Kira grinned and stroked Lavi's head, "Why don't you ask them yourself?"
"Lavi, we are going to the cafeteria. Are you coming?" Lenalee waves at Lavi.
"Right, coming!"
Kira landed his hand on Lavi's shoulder and said, "Don't forget the purpose you come here, Lavi." Kira's eyes were determined.
"I know, I know, don't worry about it." Lavi reassure Kira before gathering with his friends.

"MUNCH, MUNCH!" Allen gobbled down his food like he has not eaten for three days three nights.
"Allen-kun, don't eat so fast, no one is gonna snatch your food away." Lenalee giggled
"Oh, gomme (sorry) Lenalee. I am really hungry so…" Allen explained.
"You better be choke to death, retard beansprout." Kanda cursed as he eats on his soba.
"My name's Allen. How many times do I have to repeat that!?! You stubborn food-picker!"
"WHAT!?! What makes you say that, you are just a beansprout!" Kanda snorted.
And again, the quarrel between the two big rivals started.
"Hey, hey, both of you calm down." Lavi at the side, trying to calm the situation as soon as possible.
"Shut the hell up! I'll stuff all the food inside your mouth!" Allen and Kanda said together with perfect timing.
"EH!?!?" Lavi froze in shocked.
"Haiz, not again. When are they going to stop?" Lenalee signed.
"Allen-kun, Lenalee-chan, Lavi, Kanda-san!" A thin woman in her mid-20s called out to their names.
"Miranda." Lenalee responded.
"The supervisor has something to... Ahhh…!" Miranda came running and tripped.
"Miranda-san, are you all right?" Allen asked in concern.
"I AM REALLY SORRY!" Miranda apologized.
"Huh?" Allen was in confusion.
"Oh, I am so clumsy. I am so sorry." Miranda's eyes have gone red.
"It's alright, Miranda." Lavi grinned and helped Miranda up.
"So did Nii-san (brother) have something to tell us?" Lenalee asked.
"Oh, the supervisor wants all of you to go to the science department after you have a change of clothes and familiarize in the Black Order. And congratulate on graduating, I hope we work well as Exorcists from now on." Miranda smiled radiantly for the first time in front of them.
"Arigatou (Thank you), Miranda." The group of friends replied except for Kanda.
***
Allen return to his room and touches on a painting. "Mana, I have finally became an Exorcist. I will not give up as long as I am still alive, I will always keep on walking."
***
"Wow, Black Order sure is big." Lavi exclaimed with his eyes nearly popping out.
"Lavi, where's Allen-kun and Kanda?" Lenalee asked.
"Well, Yuu might be just somewhere being emo. As for Allen, isn't he right behind…? Hey, where's Allen? Well, forget it, Allen's a grown up, he'll know what to do."
"Hmm, you are right." Lenalee smiled.
***
"Lenalee, Lavi, Kanda! Oh my, where are they?" Allen was starting to feel panic. "Hey, but we can meet in the science department, we are told to meet Komui-sensei." Allen thought and accidently bump into someone.
"I'm sorry." Allen apologized.
"Watch where you are going, kid." A tall figure warned and turned away.
"Excuse me, but do you know where the science department is?" Allen asked.
"Well, you just walk straight and turn right." The tall figure replied.
"Arigatou (Thank You), errr…"
"Suman, Suman Dark." The tall figure introduced himself and walked off.
***
"LENALEE! I MISS YOU SO MUCH!" Komui rushes forward and hug Lenalee.
"Wow, wow, such warmly welcome. I want one too, Komui-sensei, hehe." Lavi jokingly said.
"NO WAY! This hug is just meant for my little Lenalee." Komui grinned widely as he said.
"… NII-SAN STOP IT!" Lenalee blushes finally to her resort to kick him away.
*KOMUI NOSE BLEED*
"I am sure we are not here to see you to have sister-complex." Kanda frowned at Komui.
"Kanda, don't be so cold." Komui teases with tissues stuck in his nostrils.
Kanda began to draw out his Senbonzakura (Thousand Cherry Blossom) and that scare the wits out of Komui. "Hey, hey now, don't tell me you are going to kill me."
"I am planning to." Kanda glared at Komui.
"Wow, wow there. All right, get to real business." Komui started to become serious.
"Phew, finally I am here."
"Perfect timing, Allen-kun. Now, all of you can just call me Komui, provided the rest of the Exorcists that taught you before. Since all of you have graduated, you will be seen as an Exorcist from now on." Komui continued on. "There have been an increase in Akuma lately; hence we are short-handed at this time. Allen-kun, Lavi, please wait outside for a moment, I will brief on you as soon I have finished with Lenalee and Kanda."
"Lenalee, Kanda. We have discovered a fragment of Innocence in the Desert Of Death. We have sent an Exorcist and some finders to retrieve the Innocence but it's seems we have lost contact with them. I hope you can reach to them and retrieve the Innocence as soon as possible." Komui put in plain words.
"Oh yeah, Kanda. You better not touch Lenalee one hair or else..." Komui suddenly have an evil grin on his face.
"Tch…" Kanda walked away and closed the door behind him.
"Then I will be going, Nii-san." Lenalee bids goodbye to Komui.
"Oh, take care, Lenalee. Come back soon, Lenalee!" Komui reluctantly see Lenalee off. Just then, Allen and Lavi began to come in.
"Now then, Lavi, Allen-kun…"
***
"There have been unusual weather in the Desert of Death and rumored that anybody who enters have never came out since then. Oh my…" Lenalee mumbled to herself while reading the manuals Komui gave.
Lenalee and Kanda continued the rest of the journey to the Desert of Death on foot. Suddenly, there was a large wind coming towards them, making their visions blurred.
"We are here." Kanda said.
As soon as Kanda finished his words, level 1 Akumas began to appear around them.
"We are surrounded! So this explain the disappearance of the people who step foot in here." Lenalee exclaimed.
"Oh, Wind Goddess, the one who is able to pierce and cut through anything in this world, I hereby summon you, Angelique!" Lenalee called out her Guardian Angel. A white figure of mesmerizing maiden came from within the clouds.
*BANG BANG*
"Too slow." Kanda dodges the bullets from the Akumas with his tremendous speed and soon, the Akumas are slice into half. "Tch, I don't even need to use any of my special moves,"
"Protect me, Angelique!" Lenalee commanded her Guardian Angel and Angelique began to gather wind from the surrounding and defect the attacks from the Akumas.
"Destroy them, Angelique! I want them to waver in the wind." Angelique then began to create tycoons and destroy the Akumas into dust-like.
After some time, all of the level 1 Akumas has been destroyed by Kanda and Lenalee.
"All right, let's find them and get on to the Innocence." Lenalee said.
"I guess we'll just split up, you find them while I will go find the Innocence. That will be much faster." Kanda said in a cool manner.
"Right, but be sure to be in contact, ok? Promise me!" Lenalee's eyes looked determine.
"…" Kanda remained in silence and turned away.
"KANDA! YOU HAVEN'T ANSWERED ME!"
"… A... All right, just get on with it."
Lenalee smiled and began her quest.
"Ahhh… Let go of me!" Lenalee shouted.
Lenalee's voice has caught Kanda's attention and he was shocked to see there was still one more Akuma left.
"Ssss heh heh heh, I have caught your little princessssssssssss!" A snake-like Akuma appear before Kanda with Lenalee's life in stake.
"Tch… a level 2 Akuma. You will just a piece of cake too." Kanda smirked as he glared at the snake-like Akuma.
"Sssssssssss don't underestimate your enemy sssssss or you will be in die meat ssssss..."
"Grrrr, oh Wind Goddess, the one who is able to pierce and… Ahhh...!" When Lenalee was in the process of summoning her Guardian Angel, the snake-like Akuma curled around her even more tightly. "Ssssss, Oh no you don't ssssssss little princessssssssss…"
"Sssssssso what are you gonna do? Ssssssss, Princess's knight sssssss…"
"Tch…"
So how Kanda gonna save Lenalee? Read my next chap to know more about it =). But I need some inspiration first, so it might take awhile. =) Hope you readers like it.
