Chapter 9: Who Are They?

Lightning and thunder boomed the heavens as huge waves crashed into the large island surrounded by darkness and akuma. It was Noah Island, home of the Noahs. In the middle of the island, stands a huge castle called "The Box" or "The Ark". In one of its dark halls, a girl with spiky blue hair and wears a lolita outfit, walks down, licking a lollipop while twirling an umbrella.

"R-Road-sama!" The umbrella said. "P-Please stop, Road-sama, lero! I'm g-getting dizzy, lero!"

"Mou!" Road pouted. "I'm bored, Lero! Do something~" Road whined as twirled the umbrella faster.

"LERO~!"

Road entered a huge door and found herself in a lounge. "Mou, I wanna see Lavi and Allen again…" Road mumbled.

"It's been too long since you've seen those two."

Road looked up and saw a man with long wavy hair, smiling at her.

"Long before you've awakened, Sadistic Dreamer."

Road smiled and ran to hugged the man. "Tyki~! You're back! I missed you!"

Tyki chuckled as the girl let him go. "Nice to see you too, Road." Tyki said. "I see you're VERY bored in here."

"Well, I'm literally trapped in here. Earl-tama won't let me go out… yet."

Tyki smirked. "Don't worry, you'll be getting out soon."

"What do you mean?"

"Their awakening has already started. The King and Queen are already on the throne and their subjects are one bye one, waking up."

Road gave out a dark smile. "I see… Well then, I guess I'll be seeing them sooner that I expected."

"Speaking of that Cheating Boy-" Road sweatdropped at the mention of Allen's nickname. 'He still hasn't moved on from their last game?!' "-I heard he gained himself a very beautiful fiancée. The Butterfly of the Darkness, Lenalee Lee."

"The Princess of the Lee Clan?!" Road pouted. "She may be beautiful, but she doesn't deserve MY Allen!"

"Don't be too possessive, Road." Tyki tried to calmed her down. "After all, the Princess has more right to marry that short prince than you."

Road flinched. Tyki bit his lip. 'Shit! Wrong choice of words, Idiot!'

"Who's side are you anyway?!" Road shouted as she glared at the older Noah and walked off.

"This is really bad! I have to do something! If my brother finds out I made Road cry, I won't live to see tomorrow!" Tyki frantically ran trying to where Road head off to.


Lenalee opened her eyes to find herself in an unfamiliar room. She stared at the ceiling before she remembered what happened.

'Oh right, Walker… I was with Miranda… and then…' she thought. A flash of white, a warm smile…

'Allen-kun… My Moon…'

She frowned when she suddenly remembered that the Walker Prince doesn't remember anything yet.

'But he will remember soon… right?'


"A-Alice-sama!" Bookman said, looking very surprised to see the Walker Princess leaning on the doorway.

"So you're the Guardian of the Scales, huh?" Alice said as she walked forward. "Tell me, who are the others?"

Bookman blinked before clearing his throat. "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, but I'm afraid I cannot tell you… yet"

Alice raised an eyebrow. "And why not?"

"It's in the cycle, Your Majesty, I cannot go against the power of the Stage."

Alice sighed. It seems she won't be getting any answers from him. "Oh well… see you…" Alice turned her heel and walked off.

"I'm sorry, Alice-sama, but the Queen cannot know now… not until HE wakes up…" Bookman said as he continued to stare at the huge clock.
