No Lavi's were harmed in the making of this fanfiction. Except for Lavi.
"LAVI?! DID SOMEONE SAY… LAVI?!" Sami randomly yells.
"W- What?!" Yoshimata is then tackled mercilessly.
The front door opened wide, allowing the group entrance. They entered, and the door slammed shut. Inside, the Black Order Headquarters was hard at work. "Hey, welcome back!" Yelled a scientist on the third floor balcony, waving his hand with vigor.
"Thanks, Likei! Do ya know if Hevlaska was transferred here yet?" Yelled Reever.
"Oh, uh.. yeah! She was just settled in yesterday! She's in the newest part of the castle that we just built!"
Reever nodded. "Alright, thanks, Likei! I'll be back soon, just gotta settle a few things."
Likei blinked, and yelled back. "What's that? You found a new Exorcist?"
Reever shook his head, and yelled back. "Nah, five new Exorcists." On a balcony, a finder nearly fell out of his seat, studdering the words to his comrades.
"F- five?!" Studdered, his eyes wide-open. Around the balconies, many people began to mutter to themselves, looking to each other and passing it on. They all shared the same excitement and surprise as their tellers, and some even ran out of the balconies to spread the news.
Dairu looked around, his eyebrow raised. "... I guess this is a big deal, Mr. Wenham?"
"Yeah, it is. We've been hit hard in the past few months; we lost our old Headquarters, we lost an Exorcist General, we lost over a dozen Exorcists and over one hundred of our finders, and several of the scientists in my District were killed." He sighed, putting a hand to his head in sadness. Tapp... He thought. He breathed, and shook his head. "We're just happy... that you'll join us." He smiled.
Yoshimata bowed in respect of Wenham, Sami and Yoko nodded in agreement, Dairu bowed his head, and Joseph kept his stare, waiting for Dairu to translate. As Dairu leaned to Joseph to translate the English into Italian, Lenalee looked to Allen. "So, Allen, your uniform should be in your room, so you should probably go and put it on."
Allen blinked, and realized he was still in his civilian clothes, which clashed severely with his hair, tattoo and arm. He sweat-dropped, and nodded. "Oh! Yeah, I should. Thanks, Lenalee." He nodded to everyone, and took his leave to go to his room.
Lavi yawned, and rubbed his eye. "I guess I'll just go to bed now; I barely got a wink of sleep..." He turned his gaze at Reever. He took off after a second of a glare, stumbling in a comedic fashion. Kanda simply walked away, not giving a word of where he was intending to go.
Reever watched them off, and once Allen, Lavi and Kanda were gone, he gave Lenalee a nod, and she turned to the group. "Alright; Dairu, Joseph, Sami, Yoko and Yoshimata; I will bring you to Chief Komui for explanation. Please follow me." She turned, and they walked off for the stairs.
Reever kept a steady gaze on them, and he leaned against a pillar. "So... Inspector Link..." He looked to the shadows. "... when is the Vatican going to give the order to tell about Allen's..." He gulped, almost disgusted by the thought. Poor, poor guy... Bad things happen to the best people. "... predicament?"
Out of the shadows came a young man with a stern face and a stone-cold gaze. "We're expecting the order soon. We want to use his skills a little more, as well as to train those five new recruits that you found. Once he has done so... we'll let the news out."
A knock came from the door, and Komui called from his desk and his wasteland of paperwork and books, "Come in." The door opened, and Komui's eye lazily looked to see who was entering. When he looked, his heart burst and his soul caught fire. "LEEEEEEEEEENAAAAAAAALEE!" The man screamed, torpedoing himself, against the laws of physics, out of his desk to the door. Through the door he went, glomping his sister. "Lenalee! I missed you so much! How was your trip?!" He spoke fast, hugging Lenalee like he was a parent who found his child again.
"Oh, brother. The trip was fine, I enjoyed it. You've got to do your job now, we have five new potential Exorcists." She pet her brother's head in embarrassment, laughing.
Oh, fine.... He gave into Lenalee's one suggestion whereas several groups of half-dead-from-exhaustion scientists could not move his heart. He stood up, correcting his beret and his glasses. "Alright, so please come inside! I'll get you five settled and informed." He raised his arm, and one girl moved in cautiously with a sense of apprehension around her; a boy whispered in Italian to a slightly older boy in front of him, and they walked in as well. Another girl was with them; she was extremely happy and very hyper. She held down her hand to help Komui up, and he accepted. "Ah, thank you... uhm..."
The girl nodded. "My name's Sami, sir." She grinned.
"Oh, so, thank you, Sami. Come on in, please." Sami nodded, and she ran inside to join her friends. Komui turned to Lenalee, and he grinned. "They seem eager, little sister."
Lenalee nodded. "I hope we all become friends very quickly." The two Lee's walked inside, Komui closing the door behind him.
The door opened, and inside the room walked Allen. He breathed in, and smelled the fresh air of his room. Seemingly untouched, save for cleaning and maintenance, he let himself fall on the bed. Ah... I'm home. He stretched on the bed slightly, missing the feeling of the sheets. He lazily looked over, and saw his uniform just as Lenalee told him. He brought himself up, and picked up the clothing. He changed out of his fake clothes, and dressed himself with the uniform. The clothes still fit, but they felt a little bit tighter. "Perhaps I grew over my vacation?" Allen muttered. He stretched in the clothing, and shrugged. "Oh well." He left the old clothes on his bed, neatly folded, and he opened his door to leave. Thunk! He hit something outside of his door, and heard a yelp and falling books. Not only did he hear it, but he saw it before his very eyes. Papers were falling everywhere, and books were strewn around as if an explosion happened.
"Oh man..." Came a voice from behind the door, and the papers began to shuffle.
Allen, not wanting to seem rude, swiftly came out of his room and looked around the door. "I'm so sorry! Are you hurt?!" Before him, he saw Johnny Gill in shambles. "Johnny?!"
Johnny looked up, now recognizing the voice. "Allen?" It was! "ALLEEEEEEEEN!" Allen was instantly glomped by Johnny, who was surprisingly fast for a guy his size. "Allen, it's been so long! We all missed you so much! How was your vacation?!"
Allen chuckled, rubbing Johnny's head. "It was great! I missed all of you, too. It was kinda lonely being there all by myself."
Johnny stopped hugging, and blinked. "Did you get a tan?"
Allen blushed in embarrassment, laughing. "Yeah, I did."
Johnny was puzzled slightly by Allen's new look. "Huh. Well, anyways... what was the mission you were given about? I heard something about it, but it was drowned out."
"Well, we recruited five potential Exorcists, and they're currently in Komui's office preparing to join the Order." Allen blinked when he finished his sentence. Johnny was almost blanked in expression; he became silent when Allen said 'five potential Exorcists'.
"F... f... fi- five?" Johnny stammered, his eyes beginning to glow, a grin forming and an evil-like chuckle swelling from him. Oh yeah... Johnny is very obsessive with designing Exorcist outfits. Allen sweat-dropped, just realizing what danger he just put the five in.
"Jo- Johnny, please stay calm. They've gotta form their weapons first." Johnny blinked, realizing it was too soon to flood them with design questions.
He moaned, and looked down. "Fiiiine... well, I guess I'll have to get back to work." He bent back down, and began picking up the books and papers. Allen insisted that he help, and Johnny readily accepted it. They collected the papers and the books, and some of them in Johnny's arms, and more in Allen's arms. Johnny led the way, and Allen followed. Well, I guess I'll be a little late... He thought, remembering that he would probably miss the anti-Akuma weapon formation. I'll probably try and catch up as soon as I'm done helping Johnny.
Komui finished writing down the last name. "Alright. Joseph Colombo, Yoshimata Hakitawa, Yoko Kyoukan, Sami Hana, and Dairu Gottschalk. All of your paper-work is filled out; welcome to the Black Order." He raised his hand, and he shook with them in the order he read their names. They were quite an interesting bunch, Komui had to admit. Their backgrounds were from all over the world, yet they still managed to find each other. Komui looked once more over the paperwork.
Joseph Colombo, age 13. Born in Italy. Innocence: A dagger with the Innocence inside the hilt as a small marble. Will not speak of past occupation, left as 'Unknown'. Five-foot six, silent and speaks only in Italian but understands English.
Yoshimata Hakitawa, age 15. Born in Korea to Japanese parents who escaped the Earl's reign in Japan. Innocence: Unknown, cannot find one on his person. Suspected parasite-Innocence. Five-foot ten, speaks Japanese, Korean, Russian and English. Buddhist monk.
Yoko Kyoukan, age 15. Born in Japan but later removed and taken to Greece. She became friends with the royal family of the Kingdom of Greece, and successfully trained long enough to become one of the strongest royal guards. Occupation before resignation; captain. Innocence is in a preculiar form; inside of an arm-band on her right arm, seemingly modifying itself to the form. Five-foot nine and a half. Speaks English and Greek.
Sami Hana, age 16. Born in Japan but moved to Vietnam. Eventually moving to France with a French family as their servants, but were on friendly terms with the French family. Former occupation; artist. Innocence; a drawing book that she has shown particular fast use with. The book also comes with a drawing pen filled with ink, presumably the Innocence itself. Five-foot nine. Speaks Japanese, French and English.
Lastly, Dairu Gotsschalk. Age, 17. Born in the Middle East and immigrated to Germany. Former top-student to a scholar in Berlin. Shows signs of genius intelligence. His Innocence is in a pocket-watch. Five-foot ten and a half, speaks Arabic, Italian, German, French. Translates for Joseph Colombo.
Komui sighed, rubbing his head. Boy, that took a lot of work to write... He coughed, and stood up. "Now... as you were shown, the Akuma cannot be fought by hand, they must be fought by the Exorcists. They use the Innocence in the form of weapons we simply label as 'anti-Akuma weapons'. One of our Exorcists, Hevlaska, will preform the process which will transform your weapons into what they intend to be. Do you understand so far?"
Everyone nodded, but Yoshimata spoke up. "Chief Komui, what about me, if I may ask? How will Hevlaska be able to transform a weapon for me?"
Komui pushed his glasses up. "She won't. She will, however, scan your body for an Innocence that could have been born with you, inside your body. She will be able to activate the Innocence, which could theoretically synch with your body and your mind, thus becoming a parasitic-weapon."
"Ah, now I see. Thank you. But, wait... what do you mean, 'scan'? How will she do so?"
Komui shuffled the papers on the desk. "You will find out soon enough, Yoshimata. Now.." he stood up. "Let's go visit Hevlaska."
