Lenalee climbed out of the bath and put on her Order uniform. "What a lovely morning. If I don't go to meet him now, I'll be late. The sea is rough today."
Kanda finished up in the training room.
Allen and Kuri passed him on the way to the cafeteria. "That guy's really grumpy looking." Kuri said.
"You don't know him?" said Allen. "That's Ba—Kanda Yuu. He's an exorcist like us."
Kanda met up with Lenalee.
"You're late." He said. "The wind is raging today."
Kuri went into the training room practiced with her sword against the training dummies.
She whirled gracefully and landed, finishing the dummy off.
"Whoa. I couldn't feel how fast I was going." Kuri said.
"Hey," Kanda said.. "Thinking like that is a quality of a true exorcist."
Allen headed to the cafeteria. He bumped into Lenalee, who was standing outside.
"Oh," Allen said.. "Excuse me."
Their hands touched as they both reach to pick up her books.
Lenalee looked at him. "The color of your eyes is very noble. Perhaps you were a noble in a previous life."
"A...noble..." Allen said.
Kanda saw the two standing outside. "Let's spar sometime, Priestess." He left.
"I'm sorry," Lenalee said to Allen. "That was a strange thing to say. Don't think badly of me. Goodbye." She walked away with Kanda.
"She was beautiful, but I couldn't read her face." Allen thought.
"So you've made another friend," Lenalee said to Kanda.
"Jealous?" asked Kanda.
"Got a mission for you two!" Lavi said to Allen and Kuri.
Xxx
Allen and Kuri were in the park on a mission to check out the new headquarters for the Noah.
Two girls walked by.
Allen's eye activated. "An akuma?"
"Allen?" Kuri said.
One of the girls doubled over, and an akuma came out from her back. Kuri gasped .
"An akuma!?"
"INNOCENCE, ACTIVATE!"
Allen brandished his Sword of Exorcism against the strange akuma but it wasn't enough.
"Allen be careful! The human host is still alive!" Kuri said.
"Th-That's not possible!" Allen said.
"Seisei!" Kuri splayed out her hand and purified the akuma.
The girl fell to the ground, as the part attached to her faded away.
"It separated from a human!?" Allen said.
"Hurry!" Kuri said.. "Call for first aid!"
Kanda and Lenalee watched from a distance.
"Someone's eyes..." thought Kuri. "Is the monster still...!?" She turned around. "No one's there!?"
"The instant when that girl changed into a monster..." Allen thought. "I saw...both the soul...and the dark matter...separate. Is this a new kind of akuma?"
A faint light glowed around Kanda and Lenalee.
