Author's Note: A lot of people were so happy to see Allen being back. (Lol) I'll do my best to make the chapter great!

Chapter 10: Exception

The sound of metal clashing against metal was heard as the fencing swords that came out of Allen's cape clashed against the Level Four's arms. Allen's cape was slowly following Allen as he fought.

Lenalee stared in surprise and awe as Allen fought. Each swing he brought upon the Level Four was so quick that you couldn't see the blade. The only thing indicating that he had slashed the Level Four was the sparks that flew around where the metals slashed.

Each slash was targeting a certain area, Lenalee noticed. That was when she noticed the second layer on the gears of Allen's left eye had overlapped the first gear. Could it be that that layer showed Allen the weak point of the Level Four?

"What are you waiting for?" Allen's voice echoed in her mind, making her jump. "Do what you wish now while I hold of the interference for now."

The cape flew back onto Allen's back while the mask on it quickly slid itself onto his face. The cape covered his body at a lightning fast speed before it smacked the Level Four hard on the face, throwing it far across him, causing a giant hole in the wall. Allen then turned around and smiled gently at Lenalee.

That was the push Lenalee needed as her determination was brought up and she turned to her Innocence. She reached out to pick the glowing black cube in her hands.

"Innocence," she whispered as it glowed brighter like a response to her words. "Please, I'll go and do whatever you want." The black cube twitched and slowly started to melt.

But please……

It was at that very moment that Komui halted in front of her, panting from the dash he did to get to the position. His eyes grew wide at the movement his sister's hand did as he raised higher and higher till it was a finger away from her lips.

Whatever happens……

With a determined smile, she spoke, in the voice Komui always recognized as her going off for a mission.

"I'm off, Onii-san."

Please……

With a slow and cautious motion, Lenalee's hands rose higher to her lips and tilted the black liquid into her mouth while a tear fell from her brother's eyes.

Return me to the side of my brother……

Komui immediately sprinted to his sister. By the time he had reached her side, Lenalee's hands had lower, no trace of black on them. She had drunk all of it, her Innocence.

"Lenalee?" Komui asked, scared and worried as his sister turned to face him, tear stricken face with some blood from the wound she had received before. She was about to reassure him when she felt a weird vibration coming from some part of her body.

THUM

Lenalee eyes went black suddenly and her body trembled as the vibrations went lower and lower. The pain was fast and horrible but it went away as quickly as it came, its speed was too fast for Lenalee to react. Komui could only hold her close to his chest as the vibrations continued, hoping that nothing horrible would happen.

The vibrations stopped at the area where her feet joined with her legs.

THUM

The area started to swell and turned bluish black.

THUM

Blood exploded out of the area. Komui held his sister closer while Lenalee hissed in pain. But what made the Inspector wonder was the fact that the wound on Lenalee's legs were stigmas.

"Hurry and check her." Ordered the Inspector before Hevlaska hovered over Lenalee to check her being.

The blood scent could be smelt by Allen while he held the Level Four by the neck. The Level Four was still but his facial expression showed deep disappointment.

"You're holding back." It wasn't a question. Allen looked at the Akuma and smiled slyly. "You just wanted your comrades to get back their Innocence so they could fight again. How naïve. But I'll play along, since you're Noah." Allen's golden eye glowed dangerously as the pupil dilated into a slit. Allen's face went forward and he whispered back in a cool and calm voice.

"I'm glad you know your place. But you're wrong about the Noah part." Allen backed away, and took a look at his handiwork. The Level Four, confused, looked down and widened its eyes. One of the fencing swords had been stabbed into its gut. The cracks around its stomach started to grow while light was emitted from within the Akuma.

"W-wha….HOW?!" The Akuma screamed at the British teen, anger and disbelief written all over its face. Allen stared with an indifferent look on his face as he lifted up his hand and pulled the sword out swiftly, he then brought the Akuma blood soaked blade to his face.

"I'm an Exception." The Akuma watched Allen's lips moved before he kicked the Akuma away. Though unable to see, Allen could feel another's presence around, watching the entire interaction. A certain Asian male's presence. Allen could only smile sadly in his heart before going to the area where he had last saw the Akuma.

"It's……gone." Hevlaska's shocked voice could be heard as cloth like hands examined Lenalee. "There's no trace of Innocence in her body."

"How can that be possible?!" Inspector Leverrier exclaimed while a figure appeared from behind him and rushed to Lenalee's side.

"What happened?! Lenalee……" Lavi asked, desperate to know what is happening. Suddenly, the area where Lenalee's blood had squirted out from started to solidify. The group watched with anticipation as the blood mold itself into a headless statue with wings like angels.

"You……have you accepted my resolve……Innocence?" Lenalee asked as she reached out to touch the statue. As if it had heard her question, the Innocence bowed before her knees before slowly spreading around her legs.

A spark in Allen told him that someone has regained their Innocence. He then took a look at his crosses on his hands. The crosses shone brightly, which was a warning to Allen. He then looked down at the nearly destroyed Akuma. Allen bent down low and looked at the Level Four in the eye.

"Someone else will come to destroy you," Then, like someone apologizing for something they did or didn't do, Allen softly stroked the Akuma's cheek. "I'm so sorry, we didn't destroy sooner, and at least then your soul wouldn't have been so disfigured." With that, Allen stood up, holding onto the Akuma's neck and got ready to throw it.

"Thank you."

Allen smiled back at the crooked smile he had received before throwing the Akuma to the area where he saw Lenalee.

"Good luck, the two of you." Allen whispered before his cape, that floated around him wrapped itself around his neck. "Boundaries drop to 60."

The cape grew slightly shorter, revealing two revolvers in the places of the fencing swords. The gears before Allen's left eye disappeared as well. The mask on the cape fell onto Allen's face before half of it started to disappear. Allen bit his lips as he suddenly felt the waves of ecstasy at the sight of blood in the Order.

When the boundaries dropped this low, Noah genes will start to work again. That means it'll all be based on my self-control.

"Crown Clown, help me through will you?" Allen prayed before his cape shaped itself into wings and he took off to the higher level of the Order.

Kanda looked at the disappearing figure of the sudden reinforcement with suspicion. When did Allen become so powerful in such a short period of time? Something was different about the beansprout as well. His aura had emitted not one being but three beings. He then leapt down to the area where the Akuma was thrown, wondering why Allen didn't take this chance to destroy it at all when it already looked like it could be destroyed with one more hit.

Road and Cross's battle……

Road grinded her teeth in frustration as every candle shot at Cross was only shot down or just tore his clothes. For someone old, Cross can really move fast. Road wanted to put Cross in one of her dimension and watched him squirm. However, if she did, she might accidentally break him, and her lead to where Allen was would be gone as well.

Road suddenly noticed Cross's serious face had changed. It had a wide smirk with eyes sparkling with something that Road didn't like. At all.

"Road, stop it." Road jumped and snapped around to see a moody looking Allen that had a deep frown on his face. The type of look a brother gives when he is forced to look after or play with his sister.

"I didn't even feel his presence." Road thought in surprise. Then, she got a closer look at Allen. Allen was floating and looked translucent. Translucent as in you can see slightly what was behind him. Through him.

"Took you long enough!" Cross yelled from where he was as he scratched his head wearily. It was as if fighting Road was a chore like babysitting the kids.

"Lenalee's Innocence has managed to be activated; I threw the Level Four to the area for her to give it a good kick." Allen spoke as he took Road by the hand. Road looked down at their joined hands in disbelief, as if finding it hard to believe Allen was actually here, holding her hand. She tilted her head up to look at Allen. Allen smiled lightly and squeezed her hand. Slowly, Allen's form became less translucent and clearer, along with solid looking. Road blushed a little before she giggled and hugged her brother.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm going. Next time don't disappear and appear as you please." The General whined as he walked away towards the hole that led to Hevlaska. Allen however, didn't miss the serious look Cross shot him over his shoulder. "It's longer save for you to be anywhere anymore you know." Allen nodded before Cross leapt down, activating Maria as he fell.

Allen sighed and turned to look at Road.

"Look at the mess you did Road!! How am I going to find my things with in this rumble?" Allen groaned as the area where he now believed to be his room seemed to be. Road pushed herself back and looked at Allen with widened eyes. Allen had left the Noah's Mansion for just a few hours and he was acting completely opposite from the way he was when he left. Man, Allen was surprising her a lot in such a short period of time.

"You mean you're willingly coming back?" Road then put on a hopeful smile. "To us?" Allen sighed and flicked Road's forehead with his finger, earning a protest from Road.

"Of course! Where else am I going to be sleeping?" Allen blew up a side of his cheeks and Road squealed in delight.

"Ok!! Then let us finish the destruction of this place before we go!"

"Nope, we're leaving now." Allen insisted as floated to the rumble that might be his room. "Go get the others and we'll go back."

"But Allen!!" Road whined but pouted when Allen frowned some more. "Fine, but you got to hold my hand when we return home, promise?" Road said childishly as she held up her pinky finger for Allen. Allen smirked and nodded, wrapping his own pinky finger over Road's pinky finger, electing a giggle of joy out of the First Child.

"I'll go get them now!! Do you want me to get the Akuma to retreat?" Road asked curiously. Allen shook his head.

"Let them have their fun." Allen smiled before he turned translucent and walked through the rumble. "After all, we Exorcists need to build up for the real thing." Allen whispered to himself as he continued to walk through the crumbled structure towards his room.

"I FOUND AAAAAALLLLLLLLEEEEEEENNNNNNN!!" Road screamed in delight as everyone, Noahs, Exorcists and Akumas, stopped and looked at the excited Road who was jumping around the battlefield.

"Road, please, this is a battlefield." Lulubell scolded lightly before she threw her whip formed hand at Cloud Nine, who evaded just in time.

"Tyki!! Don't scare him off again!! Got it?!" Jasdebi grinned before he ran, chased by a blood thirsty Winters Sokaro and a pissed off Tyki Mikk.

"ANYWAY!! LETS GO HOME!!" Road shouted before she waited for a response. The response……was utter silence.

"You assholes came here with the intention of destroying this place and now you guys are just going to leave like 'that's all'?! Like the hell I'll let you leave when I'm all pumped up!!" Sokaro screamed at the First Child who just placed her fingers in her ears.

"FOR ONCE!! I have to agree with this devil!! WHAT THE HELL?!" Jasdebi cursed as Road turned her back to them with ears still covered.

"Whatever you idiots want. Anyway we're going. We'll just leave the Akumas here. We got what we really came for anyways." Road said in a commanding manner. Then she did a hand gesture that resembled what a mother would do to call her kids into her arms. "Now come come!! We need to hold a party when we get back. It's very last minute that's why we need to hurry back."

With loads of curses, whining and curses, the Noahs followed after the First Child, as they exited the area as if the battlefield was a playground.

Sokaro growled in dissatisfaction as he sat down and huffed like a child while the Akumas gathered up around the three Generals.

"Stop acting like a spoilt child and help out, Sokaro." Cloud shot at the now drained from enthusiasm General while she and Theodore continued to fight.

"Now that the real fight has left, in such an IDIOTIC manner, I lost the spirit to fight." The General groaned before a monkey punch was thrown his way.

"What the-" The General shouted in surprise before the image of a very pissed off Cloud Nine was shoved in his face.

"I lost my real fight too. I'm not sitting here light a spoilt brat like a certain General. If one suffers, all suffers. So get your bloody weapon out and fight or I'll show you the first class trip to death rail!!" The female barked at the General before kicking his butt into the battlefield.

"Men……useless!!" Cloud growled in annoyance as her monster monkey screeched in agreement.

As Allen walked out of the rumble, his body turned solid. His eyebrow twitched at the sight in front of him. Level Threes were slacking off in front of him. Some were feasting on the already dead scientists while others were juggling the scientists' heads.

Allen could feel the inner conflict within him. One side was gagging in disgust while another was squealing with glee. Allen shook his head to clear the two sides before he cleared his throat loudly, making himself known.

The Akumas turned and stared at the boy. Allen then lifted his bangs on his forehead up, before summoning the darkness that lurks within. Slowly, his stigmas appeared along side with the one on his star-like scar.

"Noah!!"

"Noah-sama……"

The chant started as they stopped what they were doing, standing to attention in front of the Noah.

"There's only one order I have for you." Allen smiled sweetly before pointing up. The Akumas looked up to see a cape enlarging itself as it zoomed down onto them. The lumps underneath the cape slowly decrease till itreached the ground. The cape jumped off of the area and what was left were the souls that were trapped inside the Akumas, now flying about freely before they disappeared.

"Have a good night sleep." Allen whispered before he went to a cabinet that was almost covered up with rumble. He looked at his hands for a moment before they turned translucent and pushed them into the cabinet. Allen smiled when he felt what he was looking for and pulled the items out. After making sure they were the items he wanted, he placed into his pocket.

Next, Allen raised his black hand up and concentrated for a moment. Slowly and steadily, a glowing light ball formed in his hand and bounced off of his hand, and started to float about.

"I'll need you." Allen whispered before he opened one of the items in his pocket and the ball zoomed inside.

"Now to see if the plan works out for all of us."

At Lenalee's side……

Her new Innocence was amazing. No longer needing control, just reacting with her feelings, she sent another deadly kick at the Akuma. The group watched in awe at the new power of Lenalee's Innocence as she danced in the sky more gracefully then before.

Cross then shot a few bullets at the Level Four before it finally exploded. Just when someone was about to say 'we did it!', shadows appeared within the smoke, revealing Noahs, clothes covered with blood. Next to them was the door the Exorcists believed to be Road's Door. Slowly, one by one, they entered the door, glancing down at the group with satisfied smiles.

Tyki waited a bit along with Road, now back to his black mode. Road smiled when she saw Allen appeared from the rumble and started to walk towards them. Allen's appearance caused a shock for many. One was Tyki, who hadn't realized Allen could already use his powers. The next were the people below, Komui, Lavi, Lenalee and Hevlaska. Kanda scowled deeply while the Inspector glared at the interaction Allen was having with the Noahs.

"Let's go home then!" Road pecked Allen's cheek before running into the door, pulling Allen along with her. Just when Allen's body was about to disappear into the door, Allen quickly took out one of the items he had taken out of the cabinet and threw it as hard as he, down to the General.

Cross secured the item in his hand before watching the door slowly disappeared.

Just when the others were about to react to the scene where they saw a comrade disappear willingly with the enemy, Cross walked passed them.

"Komui!! Gather the people for a meeting!! It'll be important!!" Cross shouted as he continued on walking down the extremely destroyed walk path.

"What is the meaning of this Cross?!" The Inspector shouted but Cross didn't stop.

"Let's just say now we have a messenger to help us out!" Cross said, waving the item in his hand, a golem.

At the Noahs' Mansion……

The Noahs all gathered around Allen. The feeling of family hit Allen hard as he remembered he had forgotten to bring his boundaries back up to 100. The Noahs asked him questions, touched him and even commented him on his abilities.

Though it was nice to have this kind of interaction with something that resembled family, Allen knew that he had a mission to carry out. He knew that he was not one of them. He was not one of the Exorcists either. An exception in every single way.

"I'm sorry, I want to have a nap for a while, if that's ok." Allen said with a smile. Some were about to protest when Road stopped them.

"Sure Allen, go ahead. Sweet dreams" Road said before hugging him and pecking his cheek lovingly. Allen smiled down at her and pecked her cheek as well, earning a squeal of happiness. He then bowed to the rest and excused himself from the room.

"Everybody hurry up and gather around me!!" Road whispered hurriedly as soon as Allen exited the dining room. "Here's what we're going to do……"

Black Order Temporary Meeting aka Control Room……

"Now we're all here," the Inspector regarded with distaste at the sight of the Heads around him. Some of the Heads of the Black Order Branches had been injured or simply killed in the sudden 'idiotic', as Sokaro described, attack. "What on earth did you want us all to gather here for, Cross Marian?"

General Cross, the best looking out of the lot with his changed attire, fished out the golem he had received from his idiot apprentice. The golem opened up to reveal the glowing orb that Allen had place in it.

Chatters and murmurs of uncertainty was heard as the orb floated about before it placed itself on an empty area.

"That's a-" Bak started before the Orb glowed and a visual of someone very familiar came up. Sat in a very polite manner, the figure stood up.

"Good afternoon, I'm Allen Walker."

Author's Note: Yes, the most rushed chapter I have ever written. I seriously did not write down Lenalee's fighting scene as it was the exact same fight as it was in the manga so you have to read the manga for the fight scene. School has started and work load is not a pretty sight to have. Now that I have two fictions to work on. Updates will be slow but I'll do my best to give you the chapters.

Omake corner……

Lenalee lands gracefully on a high pole.

Lavi: OMG!! FAN SERVICE!! (looking up at the sight of Lenalee's bottom)

Cross: man has that girl grown!! (smirks widely while admiring the view)

Lenalee: (embarrassed)

New Boots: (compatible is embarrassed. Get rid of the targets)

Lenalee jumps off and starts kicking the two, boots doing all the work.

Curtain falls

Allen: Serve the two perverts in the Order right.

Raed and Review!!
