Sorry for kind of lying to you guys! Gomen! I hope you guys like this chapter! It definitely has RoadxAllen in this chapter! I promise!

I do NOT own DGM

I sigh as I take off the pumpkin head I was wearing that I was assigned to do. I was juggling and and balancing on a ball, like I used to do with Mana, back in the good old days. I feel tears spring to my eyes, but I keep them in.

What happened last night was very strange. The clock in Miranda's house went backwards! Also, we weren't affected by it because we were not pulled into the vortex. Miranda had a shock in the morning though, so we had to re-explain ourselves.

"Allen? Are you okay?" asks Lenalee, sitting next to me.

"Yeah, just deep in thought about what happened the past few days," I reply.

"Hello," said a familiar voice, "where can I get tickets to see "The Pumpkin and the Witch", brother?"

I shot my head towards the voice and saw that it was indeed Road! "Road!" I cried out tears spilling out of my eyes.

"Hi, Allen," she cried with tears flowing down her face.

We both ran to each other and hugged one another in a tight embrace.

"I-I missed you so much! How did you get in here?" I ask her, curiosity peaking my interest. "Actually I don't care! I love you, Road."

"I missed you too Allen, and I love you too." She reached up and pecks my lips, and I blush. Lenalee's jaw dropped in confusion.

"Wh-what?" she asked.

"We're not blood related, Lenalee."

"Yeah, we've just known each other for a while," Road replied to Lenalee's questioning eyes, pulling me closer. "We were adopted by the same person, so we just call each other brother and sister, even though we're practically boyfriend and girlfriend."

"O-oh, okay," Lenalee stated.

"We have to catch up, Allen. Okay? When are you free?" Road asked me, smiling brightly.

"You go ahead and talk with, Road. I'll stay here and hold it down here with Miranda."

"Thanks Lenalee! I owe you one!" I called to the older girl.

"You two have fun!"

"You did what?!" I whisper shout to Road.

"I was forced to join them, Allen. If I didn't I would have been killed! The Earl knows that I can't kill you or the people you care most about. He is actually a nice guy. He even does my homework for me! He just wants the evil to be gone, like God did once upon a time. The Earl told me the real story. I don't know what the Order told you, but I think the Earl is right. The Earl even has a psychic on our side, and the person saw the Order betraying you," Road whispers to me.

"No! That can't be true."

"Another thing, the Earl and the Order knows that you are the 14th Noah."

"I thought there were only 13? And how does the Order know?" I ask her doubtfully.

"Cross told them everything. Minus me being a Noah, for some reason he only knew about you being a Noah. I think it was that somehow Mana knew, and he told Master Cross a long time ago, but he didn't know about me back then so he didn't tell Master Cross. And the original 14th Noah, was Mana's brother," Road concluded, letting the silence fill the air.

"You've got to be joking, right?" I ask her hoping this was all a prank made up by the Noah family.

"When have I ever lied to you, Allen?" she asked seriously.

"Road… this is a lot to take in."

"I know, would you like to join us, Allen? I know it's probably the last thing on your mind right now, but it's just a thing to consider, and you can be with your big sister again! We can be a family again." Road put her hand over my hand that is sitting on the table.

"I don't know, Road. Can I think about it?" I asked my Road. It was just A LOT to take in all at once.

"Sure, of course, Allen, but I hope you know this: the innocence is mine," she says and disappears through the doorway.

I sit there for a couple more minutes, and then bolt through the door, towards where Lenalee and Miranda were at.

"What?!" screamed the tent master. "All the money got PICK POCKETED?!" My sweat dropped at this statement. "You idiot!"

"Miranda," I say.

"I'm-I'm sorry Allen, I was selling a ticket to someone and…" she started, but didn't finish.

"Did you see the pickpocket?" I asked her.

"He had long hair, and a brown jacket. He ran that way…" pointed Miranda.

"Lenalee!" I cried.

"I'll look up from up here! " I hear Lenalee call to me, jumping onto the building.

"I'll look from down here! Miranda come with me!"

At this time I didn't know Road was at Miranda's house collecting the Innocence

Lenalee and I finally caught up with the pickpocket, and my eye activated.

"Lenalee! It's an Akuma!" I cry to the Dark Boot accommodator.

Suddenly the Akuma burst its human skin and started cackling.

"Stupid Exorcists, Noah-sama already has the Innocence, and you are here chasing a lowly pickpocket."

I grit my teeth, knowing that Road has the Innocence and is probably destroying it by now.

"There's a Noah here? Allen, we need to call for back up! But how?" she questions herself.

"Let's just focus on stopping these Akuma!" I shout to the older girl.

All of a sudden, everything went black.

I woke up to a black and white checkered room. Lenalee was sitting in a chair fit for a Queen. She had on a long maroon coloured dress on and spiral hair. Miranda was tied to her clock, crying.

"Lenalee," I moan out, noticing I was sitting against the wall, my head hurting.

"Oh, Allen. You should know from past experiences that running after a pickpocket never turns out right in the end," I hear Road whisper in my ear.

"R-Road?" I question, and then I feel her pressing up to my side.

"Yes, it's me," she sighs out. "You gotta be careful, Allen. The Akuma don't know who you are so they are going to attack you."

"But the Earl knows who I am, and he attacked me!" I shout, getting up and away from Road so I can check on Lenalee and Miranda.

"He never told me that! I'm going to have a word with him!" Road cried.

"Road-tama! You're not supposed to be associating yourself with the Exorcists, Lero!" cried out the umbrella. I backed away in shock.

"Whoa! What is that thing?"

"That's the Earl's golem. His name is Lero!" Road sated, grabbing a hold of Lero. "Lero, it's fine, he's my brother! Can't you tell?" She did look a lot like me. The white hair, the scar, and even the height difference was not much.

"But Road-tama ! We're not supposed to be reviling ourselves to the exorcists!"

"Only Allen knows, Lero. Just chill out, okay?" she asks of Lero.

"O-Only Allen knows wh-what?" asked Miranda, hesitantly.

"You don't know, Miranda, but I do know that you know about Allen. Lenalee told you, didn't she? I heard her myself," accused Road.

"About Allen being the 14th?"

"Yes. How do you feel, Allen? Even this measly, klutzy human knows."

"I-I don't know, Road! You have to give me time!" All of a sudden my head starts to hurt and I put my hand up to my forehead and pulled it back to reveal blood. "Road, what's happening?"

Then everything went black.

Crappiest chapter I've ever written! WOOHOO! Lol, anyway. Gomen for the wait! Love you all!
