Chapter 2: Meet the Order
Allen pulled Kaiya around the order introducing her to each person who walked by. She really didn't know what to do so she just smiled and greeted everyone who came in their view. A way that people might describe her would be a smaller, female version of Allen. She seemed really quiet and collected and it looked like it would take something really big to make her lose her cool. Allen continued on showing her around before getting to Komui's office and before they made it there, they ran into Lavi and Kanda who was said to be looking for Allen.
"Allen! There you are, you know that Yu and I were looking all over for ya?" Lavi whined as Allen apologized for suddenly disappearing like he did. Kanda just che'd then drew his attention to the little girl by the white haired boy's side.
"Who's this Moyashi?" Kanda somewhat glared at the little girl.
"Moyashi?" She giggled at hearing Allen's nickname. Allen nodded irritably at the name.
"Yup, Moyashi here's our bud and whoever he brings along is our new bud so what's your name?" Lavi knelt at Kaiya's eye level. She seemed to be a bit intimidated by the two older teens but she also felt some sort of warmth that came from this red haired boy's friendliness.
"Kaiya, pleased to meet you… eh?"
"Lavi, bookman junior." He introduced himself and shook her hand. She smiled at him with the same smile that she gave Allen when they first met a few moments ago. She's so cute… Lavi thought as he stood back up. "And this here is Yu."
"Kanda, baka usagi." He snapped at the bookman. Kaiya then looked at Allen with a strange question.
"Does Kanda always give nicknames to people?" She whispered to Allen. He nodded and explained that he figured that it was Kanda's way of showing his affection for some people. She partially understood but regardless, she nodded and started to listen to what Kanda had to say.
"Oi, Moyashi…"
"It's Allen!" Allen interrupted getting a bit tired of being called a 'Moyashi' by Kanda.
"Moyashi, did you take that Droplet to Komui yet?" Kanda sounded really irritated as well. Kaiya, just looking at the two, could tell that there was a tension that grew between the two boys and she suddenly just realized something.
"Hey! Mr. Tekiya, who are you calling a Droplet?" Kanda didn't like the sound of her tone. She still sounded about the same but with a bit more harshness. From the first moment he met her, he knew that this girl would be as much trouble as the Moyashi. Lavi just stood by and watch the 4 and a half foot girl take on the infamous Kanda Yu. She just kept on bring in surprise after surprise. He then slipped by the bickering pair and moved next to Allen.
"Hey Allen, what does Tekiya mean?" He whispered receiving a shrug from the equally confused Allen. Suddenly, Kaiya turned towards them, catching their confusion and explained that Tekiya meant that Kanda was a fake, a phony or in other words, a poser. Lavi need to resist laughing, he's never met a person who could tell that Kanda's expressions were mainly just an act. Even Allen had to pick that up sometime ago as well but knew that it'd take a while to realize the kind of game Kanda plays. Lavi didn't even bother asking what Kanda meant by droplet when he saw Kaiya. I think Yu's being just a bit too judgemental about this kid, just because she's small and all. He thought to himself then came between the two after the bickering commenced.
"And what's up with your long hair? Ever think about the less fortunate?" She pestered him even more. Kanda's anger grew and it came up to the point where he wished he had Mugen with him.
"Alright, so how about we see Komui now?" He said aloud as Kanda broke away.
"Che, there's no way I'm going to see mr. Sister Complex." He then started to walk towards his room then slammed the door. Lavi shrugged his shoulders and brought the other two exorcists with him towards Komui's Office. He bounced around with his happy-go-lucky attitude and figured that he'd get out of the infirmary by the afternoon but he was happy to be out at all. Once they made it to Komui's, he opened the door and there they saw Lenalee giving coffee to her brother. She turned and saw the 3 come in.
"Allen-kun, Lavi! Who's this?" Kaiya caught her attention immediately. They introduced Kaiya and then Komui shot out from the back of his desk!
"OOOHHH, Kawaii!!!!" He exclaimed as he landed in front of Allen and Kaiya. Kaiya was taken by surprise as she activated her innocence and nearly chopped Komui's head off with her fist. If it wasn't for Allen, Komui would've been headless.
"Gomenesai…" She apologized to the supervisor who just laughed to himself.
"Such a cute little girl, just like my Lenalee and what an amazing innocence, also like my Lenalee!!!" He bragged not caring about almost getting attacked himself. "So tell me, how does it work?" He sat her down on the couch and took out a notepad.
"Nii-san." Lenalee sweatdropped at her brother's pushiness.
"Actually, I'm kinda interested as well." Lavi said looking at the little girl.
"Wanna know about my innocence, huh?" Kaiya thought about it for a while then nodded her head. "I think my innocence is a parasitic type to start off." She said to everyone's confusion.
"Um, sorry to ask but how is your innocence a parasitic type? It doesn't look a thing like Allen-kun's." Lenalee asked her.
"Allow me to show you." She deactivated her crystal like innocence on her arms and they suddenly disappeared. She then took off her glove and revealed a tattoo that wrapped around her wrist. Allen asked if that was her innocence and she nodded again putting her glove back around. "It also wraps around my ankles as well but that's not all, unlike any other innocence, mine can stabilize into other non anti-Akuma weapons like a sword or whatever." She materialized a scythe before their very eyes.
"This is one of the most unusual innocence that I've seen in my life." Komui was intrigued by the little girl's powers as she dispersed the weapon. "It's fantastic! We should also find a suitable name to call it." He started to go gaga over the little girl again who sweatdropped.
"Acutally, my old master had named it before and called it the Sage's Crest." Kaiya told him and Komui nodded.
"I like it." He gave her a big smile then Allen interrupted.
"So, Komui-san, we were wondering if it was alright if Kaiya were to be an exorcist." Allen saved her from their supervisor's clutches. He then shaped up and sat back at his desk. "I think it's a wonderful that since she came at such a crucial point in the war and we have a limited number of exorcists to begin with. But first things first, we should get you to see Hev." He led the way with the other 3 following. Kaiya was led towards the elevator that went downwards into the dark bowels of the order. She was suddenly lifted from her friends reach as she found a large white thing picking her up though she remained silent.
"What's wrong with her? She didn't freak out or nothing." Lavi was amazed with this unusual character. "When I first saw Hevlaska, I nearly had a heart attack and felt like busting Komui's head right off for not telling me about it." He watched dumbfounded while the white exorcist examined their new friends anti akuma weapon.
"Most unusual." Was all Hevlaska had to say about the ten year old and placed her back down on the platform. "You will play a great role in the upcoming future. Please be careful in future missions." She then drew her attention to Lenalee and told her that her innocence is still recovering. Lenalee gave an understanding nod and they then left. Kaiya wanted to know what had happened to Lenalee and why her innocence was with Hevlaska but she decided that it would be best to leave it alone. They all then parted ways with Komui who said he had a meeting to get to while they all went to the cafeteria to get something to eat. There, they once again met Kanda who was eating his soba, one look at the bunch and he just turned away.
"Get off on the wrong foot?" Lenalee asked Allen who nodded sullenly.
"Droplet." "Tekiya!" They yelled at each other as they passed by. Lenalee was surprised by her harsh tone and wondered what she'd be like if she were to encounter someone like the earl or Road. When they got their food, they all joined Kanda at the table though certain people kept their distance, Allen and his friends were once again visited by Link Howard.
"Walker, where have you been? I've been looking all over for you." He stood over them proudly while everyone groaned.
"Hey, chill two-spots. We got everything covered. Allen's been with one at least of us the whole time you were not doing your job." Lavi joked at the man's expense. He scoffed and insured that he'd be followed each and every moment whether Link would be seen or not then remained their for the rest of their meal. He then noticed a new member that sat with the regular bunch and walked over to his inspectee.
"Who is this Walker?" He pointed to his new companion.
"Link, this is Kaiya and Kaiya, this man is the one who's been observing me for the past couple of days and will be doing so for a while until my current situation blows over, his name's Link." Allen introduced them.
"Kaiya……" Link searched for her through a small information book. He could've sworn that he's heard of that name before but just couldn't put his finger on it. He flipped through the book while they continued on eating. At least something was keeping him occupied and that was something that they were grateful for. "Ah ha!" He would've captured the entire cafeteria's attention if there were any other soul there.
"It was great while it lasted." Lavi leaned against his hand and looked at the with dull eyes.
"I've found out your identity, but I must take my leave." "Hallelujah!" Lavi exclaimed. Link rolled his eyes and ignored the immature boy. "Rest assured, I will return later on and until then, I leave you and you in the watchings of the bookman." He told Kaiya and Allen then left the cafeteria.
"What was that about Moyashi?" Kanda looked at the boy suspiciously. Allen somewhat fidgeted but it was noticeable. He then played his poker face and told them that nothing was wrong. He was somewhat glad that his master was so cruel as to indirectly force Allen to learn how to play poker. Lenalee then decided to take Kaiya to her room and pulled her gently out of the cafeteria once she was finished eating.

"Komui, I know that you haven't been informed of this information but it has something to do with Supervisor Bak's last outburst. It's about whether or not Allen Walker is trustworthy or in other words, a traitor. For the past week, I've sent inspector Link Howard to watch his every move and in any case of betrayal, I don't think you want to know." Rouvelier spoke in a dark tone. Komui didn't like the fact that his friend was being on trial but the fact of thinking of him as a traitor just didn't make sense to him at all.
"Are any of you familiar with the 14th Noah?" He asked everyone around the table. Everyone shook their heads and saying how there was always just 13 of them in total but then Inspector Link came in and disrupted their converse. "Ah perfect timing, have you any new information to present me with?" The inspector just nodded and opened the book that he held during his time with Allen and his friends in the cafeteria. "Interesting." He grinned as Bak once again stood up.
"You can't just suspect Walker like this I mean, he's one of the hardest working exorcists that we have here in the order." Most of the other supervisors agreed with Bak's statement.
"That doesn't mean that he won't turn against us against his own will so that means that he and his new little friend must be tested for heresy." The room got confused when hearing about a new person to join the order. "Oh yes, a new member has joined the order and her identity must only be known by the beings in their room." There was a wave of doubt but they let him continue while Link took out a picture that was unfamiliar to all but Komui.
"Why do you have a picture of Kaiya-chan?" He accused Link.
"You're familiar with this girl Komui?" Rouvelier received a nod from the supervisor. "But how well do you know her? For instance, did you know that her other name was given to her by the 14th Noah himself. She is currently known as Kaiya, the sage of tune and previously worked as the assistant to the Noah even though she herself was not chosen for such a position. I also think that Walker knows about this for a fact." Rouvelier only told them of her time with Noah family. There was now another wave of doubt for Allen's trust. Suddenly, the Australian Supervisor arose from his seat.
"A reason for your standing?" Rouvelier looked at him smugly.
"Even though Walker may harbour the 14th and made friends with a former assistant to the Noah, they are both still crucial to the order. Allen is also our close friend and hasn't done anything to harm the order in any way and if this girl is a person that he trusts then why shouldn't we trust her as much as he does?" He sat back down. Now it was Komui's turn to demand something. He told Rouvelier that he wanted this meeting to end immediately and that he received a full explanation in writing but Rouvelier ignored him and responded to the Australian Supervisor. He exclaimed that Link will further his Walker investigation and will add the little girl to the mission as well. He also mentioned that if these two were to act in any suspicious manner, they'd be sent to suffer the consequences. He then ended the meeting and left with the Inspector at his side. Bak and the others felt as if they had betrayed a very good friend of theirs and there was nothing they could do about it but that wouldn't stop them from trying at all. All that was left in the board room was Komui who rested his head in his hands.
There's no way that I'm going to let them harm Allen-kun, Lenalee or any of the other exorcists. I'll protect them in anyway that I can from the inside and I won't allow them to be used as sacrifices just to win this war. Komui stood from his seat and walked away from the desk and left in the direction that Rouvelier took. He said that he was going to get his explanation in full writing and he will get it.

Lenalee pulled the little girl all around the order until she brought her to her very own room. "Don't worry, you'll be able to find your room very easily since it's right next to Allen-kun's." She pointed to the door on the left. Kaiya really did like the order, as much as the musician's secret room but it was difficult to get passed the fact that every door in the order looked alike.
"Thank you very much Lenalee." She bowed her thanks then opened the door to her new room.
"So…" Lenalee looked kind of disappointed while she spoke and that sort of made Kaiya nervous. "We usually hold a party for the new comers in the order but with the war getting more intense and such, we couldn't afford the time. I'm sorry." Lenalee felt really bad for telling her new friend the news but she didn't look depressed at all.
"That's very kind of you and the others to plan a party for me and even if it doesn't happen, thanks anyways." She hugged the older girl like a little sister would and it made Lenalee feel good. She's never had any younger siblings before and it was nice to have Kaiya here with her. She really didn't like being the only girl, besides Miranda who was practically a woman.
"Well I'll let you get your room together and if you want to chat or anything, my room is just a few floors above." She then left the girl alone with her room. Kaiya liked having her own room, more personal space and privacy. She usually bunked with someone or was in a cramped room with another person but now, the order provided her with a basic bed, a dresser and a desk and chair. It wasn't much but it was good enough for her any day. She sat on her bed and laid down, enjoying the peace of her room. I wish it were like this everyday… She thought to herself until she heard a small knock on the door. In the doorway stood Allen and the Inspector holding a bunch of papers.
"Hello miss Kaiya, I ask that you would please spend a moment or two with us. I need you to fill out some forms regarding my investigation on the two of you." Link told her as she nodded and joined Allen. Though she couldn't help but feel as if this wasn't going to be very pleasant.
"So what's this about?" She asked Link as she closed the door and walked further down the hall with them.
"It's none of your concern and these forms are for whether or not the observation should continue. Though that all depends on what you answer." He explained. Kaiya made a face at him.
"If it concerns on our investigation and whether or not you'll be observing us, isn't that part of our concerns?" She looked at him suspiciously but before he could respond, they all heard a voice from within the room next to them. Allen walked up the few steps and opened the doors to see a red haired man drinking with a short haired blond.
"You call this wine? Who'd drink this sh***?!? Listen you punks, go out and buy me the wine I ask for!!!" The man ordered the other men.
"B-b-but the i-inspector t-t-told us to k-keep the expenses to a b-bare m-minimum." One man somewhat mumbled.
"and why am I here?" Asked the blond woman.
"Because I love drinking wine with women and it's been a while since we've been together and you're looking as lovely as ever Klaud." Said the man as Klaud rolled her eyes at him.
"And you're hopeless Cross." She sipped her wine. Allen then stepped over and dropped his pile of papers on the head of Cross as he grunted at the weight. He looked over his shoulder and found his pupil with fire burning in his eyes. "Oh it's you baka decchi, what are you doing here?"
"That's my line!" Allen picked him up by the collar. "I look all over for you and I find you here drinking with another general?"
"Got a problem with that?"
"Do I have a problem?" Allen's fire burned even more. Kaiya could tell that Allen had a real problem with this man who she suspected was the 'shishou' that he was telling her about. Cross-daishou then whispered something in Allen's ear that made him go wide eyed but he was suddenly grabbed by the two guards that were standing by the door and was dragged out.
"Hey wh-what is this? Wait a minute, shishou!!!" Allen screamed at the man who apologized before the doors were slammed shut. Link then explained that he and Cross were not to be in contact with each other. When Allen wondered why these orders were placed upon them and Link then told him that he was suspected by the order of being related to the 14th Noah. Also that Kaiya was actually the assistant to the Noah family.
