I don't own anything you recognize. If I did then Lavi would've been Allen's big bro.
'Allen to Neah'
'Neah to Allen'
'Niah to Artemis'
'Artemis to Niah'
~Unknown POV~
I looked at the stone that Earl-sama had given me as it glowed when I pointed it in two different directions. I pointed it towards the Asian Branch. It glowed. I pointed it to a nearby town. It glowed. I shrugged and decided to storm the Asian Branch first. It was closer anyway…
~Artemis POV~
I flipped and landed on one foot as For started cussing again. When will she learn that I am just as good as she is? Sheese!
Roe smiled as she brought me some water. "Having fun Moony-chan?" she asked, causing me to grin. "Of course my friend, just a normal day for me."
For glared at me and ordered a break for more food. I whooped and Rohfa and I walked to the mess hall. "Wanna play some poker?" I asked, not really expecting her to comply. As I suspected she turned me down, but I didn't really care. Nobody was much of a challenge except Allen. Suddenly I huge crash startled me.
I spun and heard something that chilled me to the bone.
"HELLO?" it was the same creepy voice! The one from that Akuma that had cornered me oh so long ago. "ANYBODY HOME?" it cackled and I froze.
"I'M LOOKING FOR A WALKER! WHERE IS HE?" what? Allen wasn't even here!
"Artemis! Hide!" yelled Bak as the sound of rock falling got closer. Suddenly a huge, incredibly ugly face swamped my vision. "I THOUGHT HE WAS A HE!" it said, creeping me out as I realized as it was talking about me.
I took Bak's advice and ran like heck.
'What's going on?'
'How the HECK would I know?'
'You're the bloody Noah!'
'I'm you retard!'
What was going on?! Why was it chasing me?!
Shifu ran behind me and pulled me into one of the examining rooms. "Stay here! If it can't find you, it'll leave!" he hissed at me and then dashed out.
Why would something chasing Allen, think I was him? Why would my scent come off as his?
WHY?
~Allen POV~
Lavi's curse…
"You are a foul evil stinking bastard!" Lavi yelled at Tyki, charging the Noah. "I was TRYING TO PROTECT HIM!"
Lavi was protecting me? What?
I shook off my indecision and fought next to Lavi. Soon Leenalee joined and even Kanda got in a slash or two. "You. Are. SOOOOO. Explaining. Yourself. When. This. Is. Over!" I gasped out as I punched the Noah.
Lavi nodded and slammed his hammer into Tyki's abdomen. The Noah jumped backwards and almost impaled himself on Kanda's sword. "Not like I care what happens to her or anything, but I don't think you should be fighting me. Little one is about to die." Tyki said, as he caught his breath.
"Little one?"
~Lavi POV~
"Little one?" I asked, confused. "Yes, the little girl. The one that I saw earlier with Mr. Sword Guy." He pointed to Kanda. "You mean Artemis?!" I half yelled. My niece!
~Kanda POV~
"Of course, is that her name? Silly me, I forgot the little Exorcist's name!" Tyki Mik said, and I saw red.
Artemis Cain was about to die and I was three hours from her.
"Are you sure?" I asked menacingly, taking a step closer to him and causing the three Exorcists around me to take a step away from me. "Quite sure I must say. She has the same soul aura as the one that is being hunted."
"And who is that?"
"Wouldn't you like to know?"
~Artemis POV~
Why would it be following me? I don't smell anything like Allen! But…
I thought back to what Allen looked like, how his Innocence reacted. Same scar, similar Innocence.
We even look alike!
But that would mean…
I thought back twelve months.
"Do you know who I was in my past life?" I asked Cross.
"Yes."
"Are they alive in this time period?"
"Yes."
"Are you gonna tell me who they are?"
"No."
Who would Cross have known?
Who was alive right now?
Who would stand the most to loose if they knew who I was?
The answers to those questions were many, but one name stood out to me.
What had Lilly kept calling me no matter what I insisted?
Who had the Akuma just asked for?
A Walker. Lilly said I was a Walker. Allen Walker was Cross's last apprentice. Allen Walker is alive.
Allen Walker would stand ridicule from the Noahs if they knew who I was.
Allen Walker's name kept popping up everywhere.
My Innocence looked almost exactly like his.
I looked almost exactly like him.
I acted like him.
I heard the screams of those outside, the people who were running. My mind clicked as I realized just who I was.
I was the reincarnate of Allen Walker. And if I was that…
I looked at my left arm. Allen had his Crown Clown form, I wonder…
But before I could say 'Innocence Activate' and test my theory, the room around me exploded.
"HERE YOU ARE WALKER! I STILL THINK HE IS A HE AND NOT A SHE THOUGH!" the Akuma said, puzzled.
I didn't wait for it to understand.
In the age old way of the Exorcists of the Black Order I called upon the power within me. Niah called upon her powers and added it to mine.
'INNOCENCE ACTIVATE! CROWN CLOWN!'
My Innocence magnified and enlarged into something I had never seen before.
It turned silver! I was covered in some sort of white cloak that went past my feet and seemed more like a cape than anything else. A silver mask fell over my eyes and my left hand turned into a huge silver claw.
So this is who I am? Allen's reincarnate?
Him but not him?
Different but the same?
'You are his reincarnate Artemis! Not him! You are similar to him in many ways, but you are yourself. There is a difference between you and Allen, and that difference defines who you are!'
Niah yelled at me, forcing me to understand.
And I did understand. I realized who I am.
I was Allen Walker.
I am Artemis Cain.
I am PISSED!
~Allen POV~
Why do I feel like something is wrong? Oh wait, ARTEMIS IS ABOUT TO BE KILLED!
But then a different feeling came over me, as if… something changed within me.
I had a flash of a huge thread Akuma, like the one that had attacked me last year at the Asian Branch. But this one was bigger and held a stone that glowed bright neon green.
'INNOCENCE ACTIVATE! CROWN CLOWN!'
I heard, but at the same time I didn't hear it. I glared at the Akuma and attacked, my pure silver claw-
Wait a minute! My Crown Clown was black and silver, not just pure silver!
"Allen! Allen wake up!" somebody cried as they shook me. My eyes flew open and I beheld Lavi's eyes looking down at me with concern. His right eye was still green, but his pupil was red and he had a silver pentagon star surrounding his eye. "When did I black out!? What's going on?"
"You blacked out two minutes ago and Kanda is now trying to kill Tyki. I think he might actually do so really…"
"Why?"
"I think Kanda has a protector complex when it comes to Artemis Cain. He was pissed when Tyki said that she was about to die."
"Lavi! I saw something-" but I was cut off by a cackle from Hell.
"So why are you still alive then, Wal-ker-san?~" a high pitched voice cooed with a sticky sweet tone.
It was this voice that haunted my dreams and terrified me to no end.
It was this voice that Neah's anger peaked at and it took quite a bit of will power to keep him from taking over.
A huge mushroom like thing floated down by an umbrella.
"Earl!" I hissed, letting Neah's anger fuel my hate of this ugly piece of trash.
~Bak POV~
I looked up as I saw something I had only seen once in my lifetime.
"Crown Clown," I breathed, disbelief rampant in my brain. How could Artemis Cain have Allen Walker's Crown Clown form if she was Leenalee Lee's reincarnate?
What the heck?
The Akuma screamed as Artemis tore one of its arms off and broke its threads. "I'll teach you to attack the Black Order!" she hissed in anger, giving it a glare that chilled me to the core.
Her right eye looked a bit like Allen's left eye when it was activated, except that it only glowed red. How did I miss it? She wasn't Leenalee's reincarnate, she was Allen's!
She slashed down and the Akuma dissolved into dust. Then the teenage girl started to fall through the air at a rapid rate as her energy failed her and her Innocence deactivated.
No! It wasn't deactivating! The Innocence caught her and gently lowered her body onto a cluster of rock in the center of a deep pool of water. A huge green stone fell from where I assumed the Akuma had been holding it a few seconds ago and clattered to the stones next to her.
"Artemis!" Rohfa yelled as she ran into the water and then started to swim towards her newfound friend.
"Are you okay?" I heard the scientist ask Artemis as she shook the younger girl.
"No, I feel like I just got done sparing with Lavi." Artemis muttered as I came closer.
"You miss have some explaining to do!" I said as she looked over at me. "You all got trolled my friend… Now I think I need to talk to Koumi…"
~Artemis POV~
Koumi you jerk, you knew! He had to have known! Oh, and I'm gonna kill Cross too!
JERKS!
A/N: and there you have it! Artemis realized who she is, Allen is getting flashes from Artemis and Lavi's secret is out. Now how the heck do you all go on?! I mean, seriously, that is one huge cliffhanger! And now to reply to my reviewers!
fullmoon: that was an omake chapter! Its supposed to be a WTH thing.
Halley Vanaria: thank you for your consideration! Very few people felt sorry for me cause nobody really likes me at school. I did have a few people say something but that's about it… and as always, thank you for loving my story!

Allen: YAY! Its my birthday!
Kanda: joy, I don't give a crap.

Artemis: Lavi, you sound stupid, just shut up.
*Lavi shuts up*
Me: WOW… I didn't know you took orders from your niece Lavi…
*Lavi flips out*

1 teenager + duck tape + 2 much time = CHAOS!
