Here's Chapter 3!

For the favorite of my story!

(✖﹏✖)

I couldn't help it, I suppose I was rather scary. I managed to make someone piss themselves when they walked into the room because I said "Hi" and another screamed and fled from the room. Komui assured me that it was because I was a giant. After being given a tour of the entire building, Johnny had managed to locate us and give me a pair of shoes. He had taken the effort to make me a pair of shoes since the size of my feet was nearly double that of a normal man.

Komui had also explained most of the objectives of the Black Order and even told me the names of the three youngsters I had seen earlier. The one I had referred to as a pirate was actually a Bookman Jr. named Lavi. That phrase started another knowledge lesson since I was clueless. The blue haired boy was Yuu Kanda, but was referred to as Kanda. Then last, but not least, the youngest white haired boy was Allen.

I was concerned about Allen since he was still a child. I'm not sure where my concern for children came from, but it was there. It seemed that the 4 of them (including Lenalee) were always together and worked together.

"Shy?" I jolted out of my daydream-like state to look at who was speaking, noting that there was a strange looking brunette man in front of me. The cold glare that the man was giving me made me shudder a bit. "This is Malcolm Leverrier. He is the special inspector from Central."

Tilting my head I examined the man carefully, looking for something. What I was looking for, I didn't know. "Has this man been checked for compatibility for Innocence?" The man's harsh tone made me tense.

"Inspector, he is a janitor." I snapped my head towards Komui who had a wrathful bite in his voice and I could see it reflecting on his face. Looking back at the Inspector, I saw the same emotion flash across his face before he turned tail and strode proudly down the hall. With his blonde assistant trailing behind him, I finally figured out what I was looking for. "The nerve of that man."

Komui's voice was full of anger and a desire to strike the Inspector down. "Komui?"

"What?" I flinched when he looked at me, his dark eyes burning with anger.

My lips quirked to the side in concern. "That man, the Inspector, what did he do that has you hating him so much?"

"He is a horrible man, he ordered the experimentation on people who were related to existing exorcists." I raised an eyebrow as he scowled. "I was lucky to not have this happen to myself, but the result of these experiments have been horrific. He also cares for no one else."

I found myself frowning, not at what Komui was saying, but the anger that radiated off of him. "He's scared."

The anger stilled a moment as Komui snapped his gaze back to me, then the anger became confusion. "Scared? That man?"

"Yeah, I can feel it, he is scared of something. Or for something." I found myself gazing over the railing that lined the hallway. "I'm not saying that what he has possibly done is correct, but I feel like he thinks he is doing right for whatever he is scared of or for."

I felt tense once I had finished speaking since Komui's stare hadn't faltered. Then he shrugged and continued to walk down the hall like we had been before encountering the Inspector. "If you say so, I still think that man needs some redeeming."

A sigh of relief fled my chest and my thoughts wandered to what I saw earlier. Malcolm was hiding behind his stern mask and was truly terrified. He hid so well that I almost didn't see. I briefly wondered why I was looking for that fear as I trotted after Komui, falling into my state of daydreaming again.

On my first day of cleaning, I found there wasn't really that much to clean, despite the building being massive. Turned out that most people kept up after themselves I was needed to clean up after Komui and his robotic mess. His office, which had given me such a horrible headache, I ended up getting to clean.

I quickly figured out how to file most of what was laying around and put the unfinished paperwork on Komui's desk. There was a massive pile of unopened mail as well. Anything that was open got filed away. After I had cleaned up most of it, which include cleaning around the napping office owner, Lenalee entered the room with a tray of coffee cups.

I, of course not hearing her enter the room, jumped when she tapped my shoulder. I thanked her for the cup of coffee she handed me then watched her wake up her brother, who shrieked when opened his eyes. "Noo! Lenalee! I will kill him!"

"I'm not actually getting married, big brother." She sounded a bit exasperated.

"Oh." Komui managed to detach himself from her legs while she set the coffee cup for him on his desk. "What are all these papers?"

"Your paperwork." I stated as I sipped the bitter black liquid in the cup. My nose scrunched up at it, but I drunk it nonetheless.

"Nooo, I don't want to do it!" With a shriek and the downing of a cup of coffee, Komui slumped into his chair. That's when the blonde Australian named Reever stepped into the room and shouted at Komui to do his work.

I ended up chuckling as they began to argue. There was still a lot of papers sitting around but the room was giving me less of a headache. Most of what was left were things I was unsure of what to do with.

"His office hasn't looked this clean since before he became chief." Lenalee's voice made me jump again.

"Yeah, I figured. He isn't as disorganized as he acts, ya know." I tipped my cup towards her before drinking a bit more. "This is good coffee, ya know."

"Thanks. Almost everyone just thinks he's insane." I pondered on it for a moment and deemed that he was far from really being insane, just very creative and active.

"I don't think he is. Just hyperactive." She smiled at me and I felt myself smile back at her.

During my conversation with Lenalee, I realized that I had been analyzing her, almost the same way I had been doing with the Inspector. It was strange, she was scared too, but she wasn't hiding it as fiercely as the Inspector had been. Her fear was more obviously a concern for others, unlike the unclear image that the Inspector had

I had been tempted to ask her what she thought, but remember that Komui had a problem with him, which would rub off on her. I shook my head as I munched on a sandwich that Jeryy enthusiastically made for me before someone bumped my arm. I looked to my side to see who had done it and found myself looking at the angry Kanda.

"You're in my spot." He stated flatly and in my confusion, I looked around where I was sitting. The entire table was clear. Kanda slammed his hand into the table next to my plate. "Move."

I looked around and saw almost everyone in the room was looking at us, including the exorcists and Jeryy. Lenalee was walking over in our direction, probably to rescue me, but I wasn't having anything of it. I stood abruptly and slammed the top of my head into Kanda's nose.

I felt angry that Kanda was going to be a brat over a seat. I saw Lenalee freeze nearby as Kanda stumbled back, holding his nose. He snapped his head up at me, the unbridled rage evident on his face. "How dare you!" Kanda growled as I squinted at him.

I felt a strange bubbling in my chest as he pulled his katana from its sheath and charge towards me, time seemed to slow as I watched his approach. Stepping to the side, I knew his katana would miss me, but he wouldn't stop there unless I gave him a reason to. I reached out and grabbed his elbow and pressed my thumb into the crease. The next thing I realized was that Kanda had dropped his sword and was standing a few feet from me, holding his arm with a hilariously shocked expression.

Shaking my head, I pushed my plate to the other side of the table and put his plate where mine sat. Once I had rearranged the table, I picked up his katana off the floor and held it out to him. His expression was still one of shock, even as he took the katana from my hands. There were slight murmurs in the room and I suddenly felt rather self-conscious. I turned to escape the room, but found myself blocked by Lenalee with her hands on her hips.

She opened her mouth, probably to scold me, but I wasn't sticking around to listen. I stepped around her and sprinted out of the cafeteria. Thinking closely at what I had done, I wasn't even sure how I knew that gripping his arm like that would make him drop his katana. My head was hurting, it felt like my skull was on fire, especially around where I had been hit.

Locking my door behind me and sliding the deadbolt shut, I reached into my shirt and clasped my fingers around the cold pendant and pressed it to my forehead. The rapid knocking on my door made my head hurt worse but I didn't care to make it stop. I could hear Komui calling to me outside, but my voice wouldn't even work.

All of my bones felt like they were on fire at that point and felt like they were getting worse. The light turning on stabbed at my eyes making, a hoarse cry flee from my throat. Cold hands grabbed at my arms and pulled me off of my side. The lights continued their relentless onslaught then dimmed into a quiet welcoming black. Everything stopped hurting as well.

"Nin, Maruego! Aer idd vitirae?" There was a little girl in front of me, speaking a language I didn't know.

"W-what?" My voice had a quiver to it.

"Maruego? Kakiey aer echots, kakiey yester bronchioghs?" She spoke again, her lavender colored curls bouncing over her shoulders. Her bright blue eyes held a lot of confusion to them and I could tell that I should know that language.

"Shy? Aer sathai malaeri?" I heard a male voice to my right and upon looking, I saw a man who resembled myself, only he had bright green eyes and straight burgundy hair. Next to him was another male who looked like the first, only with short even darker hair and blue eyes. They both looked very confused.

"Shy, is something wrong? Why are you speaking in English?" The short haired one tilted his head as he spoke, his voice sounding like a bubbling brook. When I didn't answer, they both walked over to me and crouched in front of me as I scooted back.

"Wh-who are you?!" I shouted, making them both freeze.

"Shy? Don't you recognize us? It's me, Cyril…" The one named Cyril responded sounded miserable and almost like he was going to cry.

"Yeah, and Abbados… Do you not remember your Bodos?" My eyes shot to the green eyed one, immediately recognizing the name.

"W-wait, you're my brother!" I sat forwards, looking at them both.

"We both are, how do you not remember us?" I shook my head and shrugged then reached towards Bodos, who had put his hand out to me.

I gently placed my hand in his, then my hand felt numb and felt through his. I heard and saw the both of them scream as it appeared I was falling through a hole.

My back hit something cushion like and I felt needles stabbing into my arm. My entire body tensed as I looked towards where I felt needles and spotted an I.V draining into my arm. I was immediately calmed by this but at the same time, rather concerned.

The walls were so clean, it almost blinded me. I knew where I was, it was the medical ward in the building. I normally stayed away from it. My dream concerned me, it was almost like I was trying to remember my brother, or brothers, rather.

Were we triplettes? I put my hand on my head and groaned slightly before sitting up. I didn't see anyone else in the ward, it was just myself. A set of clothes that I recognized to be a uniform were neatly folded up on the foot of the bed as well as a note.

Hello, Shy! You passed out and I couldn't wait in the ward for you to wake up anymore, so I've gone back to work. When you wake up and read this note, I need you to come to my office as soon as you can!

~ Komui

I scrunched up my nose then snatched up the clothes and slipped them on. Everything seemed in place, then I noticed that something was missing, my pendant. My hands flew over the end of the bed, searching the sheets for it then I checked the table next to the bed before finding that it wasn't there either.

I felt panic rising in my chest then forced it down and raced out the door, making a beeline for Komui's office. He probably had it. When I got to his door, I had to stop myself from slamming it open, and actually knocked nicely before entering.

Komui called out for me to enter and upon entering, I spotted Komui sitting behind his desk with a confused and concerned expression. "Shut and lock the door, please. I need to speak with you about something rather important."

I did as I was told and sat heavily on the couch. My body shivered against my will, my hand gripping the edge of my shirt. "H-hey. How long was I out?" My voice quivered as well and I felt like there was a ball of gunk there again. Just like when I first met Komui.

"2 weeks. You had a temperature of 120 degrees and it was climbing. That is so unnatural that I was forced by the nurse to look for diseases in your bloodstream." Komui drummed his fingers on his desk.

I had some basic idea that the human body wasn't supposed to get that high. "D-did you find anyth-thing?" I cursed myself for stuttering, but I couldn't stop shivering.

Komui dropped his gaze down to his desk. "You should have died before reaching that temperature. When you were put on ice, your temperature only dropped again to normal, but there was no damage done anywhere in your body. I didn't find any diseases in you blood, but I did find out possibly why you're so tall."

I cocked my head to the side, not really understanding the importance or correlation to my blood and height. "Komui, I need to ask you something." He nodded to me. "The necklace, the one that my brother had given to me. You have it, right?"

Komui's jaw dropped slightly then he shook his head. "I never took off your necklace. It was still there last I went to visit you in the ward." I began to shiver more and grasp at the collar of my shirt.

"Where did it go then?" I felt panic rising again but I couldn't push it away this time. I raked my nails over my collarbone as thick wet globs rolled past my eyelashes and splashed down onto my lap, and before I could react, Komui was next to me, rubbing a circle onto my back. "I-it's gone, the only thing I have connected my family and it's gone."

As I whimpered, Komui held onto my arm and patted my shoulder, attempting to comfort me anyway he could. I ended up passing out again on his couch but it didn't dream like I did earlier that day. I woke up again to hushed voices speaking in the room then realized that I was at the end of the couch, curled up in a ball with Allen and Kanda sitting on the other side of the couch talking to Komui.

"You'll be going into Romania, there have been reports of a monster resembling a demonic dog around there. Your mission will be to determine if it is innocence or an akuma. Deal with appropriately." Komui looked at the two sternly then noticed me peeking at him. "Oh, hello Shy."

I nodded to him and sat up, stretching till my limbs popped. Kanda wasn't glaring at me as murderously as I thought he would. He just looked like normal Kanda. "How long was I out this time?"

"A few hours. I'm sending these two on a mission. In fact they are going to Romania, in case you didn't hear." My mad friend gave me a slight smile.

"I heard. Sounds good, watch out for vampires."

There was a shocked sound to my left and upon looking, I saw a vampire. "What's wrong with vampires?" This vampire looked as if he was without a backbone, and was attempting to look tough.

"Nothing, I just don't like getting bit by a random stranger." I raised an eyebrow. "How do you feel about garlic?"

He frowned and seemed to crawl further into himself. "I don't like it." He sounded miserable.

I found myself laughing and jumping over the back of the couch. I went over to the side of the room and began to clean up what was left of the mess from 2 weeks prior, leaving them to talk together.

The harsh tone of a man's voice filled the room again, making me bristle a bit. I spun on my heel and spotted the Inspector who had entered the room and begun talking to the exorcists. "The relations in Romania are tense as of now."

"I wonder why…" I heard the vampire mutter as he scooted away from the inspector.

The inspector scrunched up his nose at the vampire and despite my attempts to remain hidden, he spotted me. "You there. Go with them. You can get some work on the field and actually be useful." Oh this man.

My face was heating up rather quickly, but not out of embarrassment but rather anger. "And what makes you think that's a good idea?" My voice came out twice as harsh as his and bitter to the bite.

This obviously took the Inspector by surprise since shock was written across his face. "W-wha-"

I stomped forwards. "You, sir, are not the boss of me. I am a JANITOR!"

I was only inches from the Inspector's face and he still looked shocked. I wasn't backing off. A slender hand settled on my shoulder and gently pulled me away, to my surprise, it was Kanda. "Don't be an idiot."

For once in my entire time of being there, I was glad someone stopped me from doing something. I let out a deep sigh then eyeballed Komui who looked even more concerned before Allen pipped up. "I'll protect him. If he comes along, I'll keep him safe."

There was nothing more terrifying than jumping off a bridge onto the roof of a moving train. And here I thought I was a scary individual. No, that was Kanda who apparently had balls of steel since he grabbed me and jumped over the side of the bridge with me screaming.

"MAENTAE RACENEG!" I screamed as we landed on the train. Kanda then drug me into the train, sending me a questioning look. I wasn't sure what I had screamed, but I assumed it was the equivalent of some random cuss slur like holy shit.

"What was that?" Allen questioned innocently behind me and I craned my head to look back at him.

"Err… Just me cursing and thinking you lot are mad." I spoke in a sing-song like voice before struggling onto my feet.

Allen spoke with an attendant who then showed us to our room on the train. I had a feeling that this sort of thing happened a lot. Kanda sat against the window and I ended up across from him, next to Allen. An eerie, possibly awkward silence fell amongst the four of us, though I was certain it was because the last time we had been in the same room together, I had managed to dodge one of the fastest individuals at the Black Order.

I thought that the train ride was going to remain this way till Allen pipped up once again. "Hey, Shy? You know how Kanda attacked you and you beat him, right?"

I flinched but looked over at Allen nonetheless. "I wouldn't say that I beat him, really. I just made him drop his sword."

He shrugged. "You were hysterical after that, when we went after you to make sure you were ok, you were screaming. It made me think of someone being set on fire."

I frowned, unaware of my screaming. I really did feel like I was on fire at that point. "Can I trust you at all, Allen?" My voice sounded harsh again and it made the poor boy flinch.

"I-I think so. I've never done anything to betray anyone's trust." He sounded rather concerned as I glanced between him and the other two exorcists in the cabin.

"Fine. I have acute amnesia. If you don't know what that means, it means I have literally no memories from before waking up about a month ago. I don't know if I am actually 28, I don't think my name is actually Shy, Komui just happened to notice a piece of jewellery I was wearing that had my name engraved on it." I paused, noting that even Kanda looked a bit surprised. "All I know as of now is that I have a brother named Abbados and that I have muscle memory for someone who can fight. That's how I was able to make Kanda drop his sword. I couldn't remember anything and whatever made me lose my memories in the first place was making me hurt."

Allen's silver eyes were as wide as they could get. I must've done a damned good job of making them think I was just fine. "I didn't…" He even sounded lost for words.

"Don't worry about it, Allen. Komui just doesn't want the Central to know about it." I focused my gaze on the floor as I recalled Komui mentioning something about the blood study he did and remembering that I never gave him the chance to tell me what his found. I broke down before he could. I cursed myself internally then let my head fall back against the wall, flinching when I hit the soft spot left from my supposed bludgeoning.

"Did someone hit you?" Arystar, the vampire, spoke up, sounding innocent as a lamb.

I nodded slightly. "Probably. Komui found me with a pretty serious head injury."

"Oh. Do you think you'll get your memories back?"

I shrugged. "Amnesia usually happens because of trauma. I might not like my past."

Kanda snorted. "Your past is what shapes who you are now. And right now, you're whiny."

I gave Kanda one of my looks then turned to gaze out the window, thinking about my dream. Two brothers, at least in my dream, I happened to have. We seemed to be triplets at that. My eyes slid shut as I attempted to recall specific features about them. Abbados had acid green eyes, unlike my forest green ones. Cyril's were a calming blue. Everything about him made me thinks of water. The way his hair stuck to his head, his wobbly voice, his eyes.

The clothes. They were very detailed in my dream, Abbados appearing to where a cultist robe of sorts, decorated with very intricate embroidery. Cyril, however, was wearing a typical roguish outfit consisting of a black turtlenecked ¾ sleeved shirt and tight fitting black pants. His hands were even covered with fingerless gloves.

Something I hadn't realized before cropped up in my mind, however. A flower. Clasped in Cyril's hand in my dream was a purple bell shaped flower.

Glancing around the cabin, I noticed that it was rather dark. I had been in my own world for a while it seemed. Allen hadn't fallen asleep like the other two occupants had, so I tested my luck. "Allen?"

While my voice was quiet, it didn't stop Allen from comically flying from his seat. "Wah?" He stood there like a deer in the headlights then slowly sat back down, looking very embarrassed.

"Do you know of a flower with dark purple petals and a long yellow center?" I cocked my head to the side, hoping a bit that he would know what it is.

All I got from him was a very confused look, thus provoking an unhappy look onto my face. I supposed that I was going to have to keep a look out for a flower that looked like that. It might've been important.

Ooooh...
