AN:
I wonder how long this story will be… A couple more chapters, I guess.
TOTALLY OOC, HAHA, SINCE I HAVE NO REASON TO DO THEM IN CHARACTER.
Or perhaps no WAY to do them in character. XD. But holy crap! Shounen action!
I guess I can't go too long without being an idiot and writing mediocre action scenes, aha.
Disclaimer: I TOTALLY DO(gun to head) …
…
NOT OWN DGM!

Komui was especially wary of Rinali the next day, questioning her profusely about her strange behavior. She would reply that she was okay, and continue serving the coffee until there was none left on the tray. She'd leave without delay and not return until the next time coffee was served.
'Suspicious behavior, very suspicious behavior…' Komui thought, absentmindedly doodling his signatures. 'And that question I asked earlier…That was a very typical question…'
Komui was not idiot enough not to be able to take hints. After some brain time, Komui decided it would be time to break out that new invention of his soon.

To Allen, there was no way out of this situation. Rinali had most definitely figured out, or at least found that one stray sentence… He shook his head to clear it and went on thinking to himself.
'Crap, there she is now,' Allen thought, stopping right in the middle of the hallway.
"Oh Allen-kun good morning" Rinali said quickly, and turning on a heel, walking away as calmly as she could.
'…Yeah. She definitely found out.' Allen said, faceplanting himself into a wall.

"Sounds to me like she found out," Lavi said from his spot on the backwards chair, intrigued.
"You're not helping, Lavi."
"I'm just inputting my idea…" Lavi said, holding up both of his hands.
"The problem is…I don't know what she thinks about it…" Allen said, lying down on his bed and looking up.
"Try asking."
"What?! After that?! Do you know how awkward it'll probably be?" Allen shot up, red.
"Eh, but…are you going to find out any other way?" Lavi said.
"Actually…" Allen sifted through his mental idea book and sighed at no other idea.
"Right?" Lavi took a spot beside Allen, standing him up and ushering him out the door.
"Eh?? Not ye—" The door slammed shut before the sentence was fully said.
"…t… I'm not ready" Allen paused helplessly at the now locked door, and walked off, thinking about what to do. After about thirty minutes of aimlessly walking around, he decided he knew what to do.

Rinali opened the door that was being knocked on softly to an awkward and slightly blushing Allen. "Ah, er… can I come in?"
"Eh? Okay." Rinali said, allowing the white haired exorcist to pass in.
"Thanks." Allen said. Then the awkward silence started. Rinali sat on a chair, absently looking around, while Allen stared at a spot in the wall. Then he noticed the small book on the table. It was closed now, and didn't seem like any further inspection was needed.
"Um…so…did…anything new happen?" Allen forced out, desperate.
"Eh?" Rinali's face shot up. "Er…no…"
"Oh, that's…good…" Allen said, hesitant about stopping the conversation there. "So, um…What was inside that book?"
"Eh? Well…" Rinali stopped short. Allen mentally faceplanted himself again. Rinali continued on. "I sort of read...—" she got cut off by a loud noise that sounded suspiciously like… mechanics at work. "Ah…So THAT'S what Komui-niisan was working on…" Rinali muttered. Allen looked questioningly at her, half worried and half surprised. They both went outside to inspect what was going on.

They looked down the spiraling staircases of the Order, and a suspiciously familiar white and purple robot stared back at them. Allen jumped back in fear, and Rinali followed, although more in surprise. Soon it was staring at them square in the eye, Rinali grabbed on to Allen's arm upon reflex, and Allen blushed at the sudden warmth.
At this, Komui, who was steering the new robot, became outraged. "How dare you not tell your own brother about what's happening in your life!?" Komui yelled.
He started stretching out the robotic hand and grabbing at Allen, but the young Exorcist was a bit faster, and had started down the halls with Rinali in tow. But the robot was slowly gaining on them…

Ahaha, aren't I such a bad author? Ending it there…
Does that mean I have to write the next chapter soon?
