Moko-Chan: DGM belongs to Hoshino sensei who is rumoured (unwarranted claims, may not be true) to be back in April.

"What are those people looking at?" Miranda asked, pointing at the crowd of people gathered outside a normal church in the streets of London.

"I think the man standing in the centre is a priest." Krory commented, being able to look over most of the crowd due to his height.

Then came a loud bellowing from the priest. "EVIL! BEGONE!"

Lavi chuckled. "That priest's an exorcist."

"An exorcist?" Lenalee questioned.

"Yeah. But he's not an exorcist based on our definitions." Lavi replied. He was about to continue talking when he got interrupted by another bellowing.

"DEVIL! LEAVE THIS MORTAL AND RETURN TO THE SHADOWY DEPTHS FROM WHICH YOU HAVE SPAWNED!" The priest shouted, tapping the man kneeling in front of him with a branch apparently drenched in 'holy water'.

"So what sort of Exorcist is that person?" Allen asked Lavi, curious.

"Well, to most people, he's a holy man who gets rid of evil."

"Like us?" Asked Lenalee.

"Not exactly. That guy probably can't make a scratch on Akuma. But people believe he can banish evil when in reality, I doubt he can." Lavi said in a know-it-all tone.

"A conman." Krory concluded.

"Yeah, somewhat." Then the crowd started cheering as the man kneeling down was pulled up by another and was brought out from the crowd. The Exorcists heard someone in the crowd praising the priest for removing the 'devil' inside the man.

"If you ask me," Lavi said softly, not wanting the supporters of the other 'Exorcist' to hear, "That man was probably just suffering from Tourette's disorder." Upon seeing the confused looks on the other four, he continued explaining.

"It's a disease of the nervous system which causes people to act erratically, either by twitching or yelling or other strange behaviours."

"And that looks like a possession?" Allen asked.

"Well, if I was normal and I saw someone acting that strangely, I would think that it's a possession." Lenalee replied.

"But the person isn't really cured, is he?" Miranda asked, hands clasped in worry and concern.

"Nope. That just makes people feel better mentally. See?" Lavi nodded towards where the 'possessed person' was standing. The person was still being supported by his companion and then they saw his head go lopsided suddenly before going upright again. "A hospital would have been a better choice."

The amazed crowd were, on the other hand, showering the 'Exorcist' with praises and tokens of appreciation.

"That" Allen said, a bit repulsed by the 'oohs' and 'ahhs', "Is kind of bad."

Lenalee nodded in agreement. "We aren't supposed to fight for personal gain."

"Nevermind." Lavi said grinning. "He's not really an Exorcist anyway. Shall we go?"

Then Allen's left eye reacted. A disc-like object appeared in front of his eye, indicating the presence of their mortal foe.

"I guess not."

A middle-aged woman was pulling a male youth towards the crowd, saying something about his friend had passed away and she's worried that his friend might have too strong of a bond with the youth and thus possessed him as an evil spirit.

"Heh." Lavi gave a short laugh. "Looks we can't even take a break from work." (Collective sigh from everyone) And the Exorcists went to eliminate the Akuma.

Omake

Lavi: It's only a level 1… Four of us excluding Miranda would be overkill right?

Allen: True.

Lenalee: Then…

Lavi/Lenalee/Allen: Krory shall go. (Turn to Krory) Good luck!

Krory: … I guess it is training.
