Author's Note:

And so we have reached the final chapter of Beautiful Words, my first every story that I posted to this site. I think I might cry. Not. Did you like it? I sure hope you did because I was truly flying blind with this story since I managed to post all the chapters without a single review. Don't be shy! Please, I would love to know your thoughts on this OC Story.

For a few things I would like to mention. I love Noblesse and all its characters, so I was really sad when it ended. The whole story was really action pack and family oriented with everyone crowding into Frankenstein's house. I love the idea like that with people not only trying to protect the city but their life in that house as well. Yes, I noticed that quite a view plot holes popped up in the story but let's just be glad for the people who are still alive in the end.

Now, Frankenstein is my favorite character in the series and I just love his two-faced personality. It's a real throwback to the movie and book that I've both read and watched. When creating Luciel, I wanted a woman who was very sweet against Franky's sadistic/gentleman persona, but dangerous enough to survive on her own in the word when she had to leave Lukedonia for reasons yet to be explained fully. I really fell for her character the more I wrote her. She's innocent enough to be easily shaken, embarrassed and still extremely protective of the people around her. If Frankenstein's the father of the household then Luciel would have to be the mother.

Funny story though, when I was creating her, I didn't think it but she really was starting to resemble a cross between Frankenstein's original monster and Elizabeth Lavenza. That wasn't intentional at all and I found it funny enough to just roll with it.

Sorry for my rambling. I wanted to say a few words but not clog up the ending and ruin the moment. I wanted it to be short and sweet. Anyway, on with the final chapter!

BEAUTIFUL WORDS

Takeo laid on the flat on the table as Tao and Luciel hovered around him, waiting for Frankenstein to explain his condition after getting attacked by Aris back then.

"The results indicate that Aris didn't take too much of your energy." Frankenstein flipped through the pages of data in his hand.

"Aris was going to keep me alive as a hostage in order for her to escape if...Luciel didn't save me at that moment" Takeo said, sparing a glance to Luciel as she smiled back at him

"If Aris took all your energy, you wouldn't be in this state right now. And even if you were to recover, your physical strength and ability would have diminished. You will recover eventually, though it may take some time."

Tao gave him a concerned look. "Does that mean he's okay?"

"Yes. If you were a bit late, it could have been detrimental."

Luciel sighed after hearing that we would be alright. She blinked when something came to mind. "Frankenstein." She turned to the man. "Can I ask you something?"

Frankenstein blinked and turned to face her. "What is it?"

"Aris. Why did she act like that after taking the pill? Didn't these guys have a certain amount of time after taking the pill?" She asked, tilting her head to the side.

Frankenstein flinched at her harmless question. "Hmm. That's..." He reached up and adjusted his glasses. "Because she picked up a random pill."

Luciel gave him a suspicious look. "Is that..." she began.

Frankenstein waved off her concern with a laugh. "I'm just kidding. It's a joke, Luciel. The pill I gave them were specifically made for them. Aris said that taking the D would have a greater effect on her. Which means that D was created for her, rather than for them."

Luciel nodded her head. "Now I understand. She took it thinking it was the D. So that was the reason why she acted like that."

Tao pounded the palm of his hand. "I see~"

"Hmm..." Takeo nodded. "So that was it."

"I feel much better now. I was a bit nervous." Tao laughed loudly.

"Honestly, I was, too."

Frankenstein laughed at their response. "Really? Why so nervous?"

Takeo rubbed his chin in thought. "So if we took the pill that Aris took, the same thing wouldn't have happened."

"Ah..." Frankenstein reaction caught everyone off guard. "To be exact, I'm not too sure..." He admitted lightheartedly much to Luciel's fallen expression of horror. "I don't have the information on your reaction of the pill. Right?" He patted his lover's shell shocked head.

Luciel frowned. "You...you do have a point." She hated to admit because it felt like he was using that as an excuse.

The door to the lap opened up and M-21 walked through, but he stopped when he saw everyone else inside.

Frankenstein turned to him. "Ah...You and Luciel stay for a minute. I'll get the experiment ready." He walked out of the lab

When Frankenstein was gone, Tao and Takeo immediately started to question M-21 and Luciel.

"What does he mean by an experiment?" Tao asked urgently. He was a bit pale. "You're never here at this time of the day. Are you here both here for an experiment? Did you agree to an experiment in exchange for staying here?"

"That's..." Luciel looked away from their eyes.

"Miss." Tao got in her face and shook her shoulders. "But aren't you and the boss like...you know." he tried to understand the reason behind the madness.

Luciel's lips quivered. "You don't understand. I did something horrible a very long time ago to him. So..."

"And you agreed to an experiment?" Tao exclaimed.

Luciel looked up and stared at him straight in the eyes. "Tao. Takeo. I'll do anything to repent for what I did."

Tao saw no way around her words as serious as they sounded. "Miss..."

Luciel looked over to M-21. "Are you sure about this? You don't have to do it if you don't want to."

M-21 closed his cold gaze. "I'm doing this out of my own will, which is completely different from the former experiments."

Takeo tightened his jaw. "M-21... Frankenstein forced you and Luciel to do this?"

Luciel frantically shook her head and hands. "No. We volunteered to participate in these experiments."

Just then, the door slid opened and Frankenstein walked through. "M-21. Luciel. Shall we get started?"

Takeo suddenly walked up to him. "I'm in." He demanded.

"Huh? In what?"

"The test that M-21 and Luciel are doing."

"You are going to participate as well?"

"Isn't more participants better? I am guessing it would be more beneficial for you too."

Yes, but..."

"I want to lessen their burden on the experiment. I'll take the dangerous parts."

Tao reluctantly stepped up too. "I'll do it too. It's better to be experimented here than at the Union. Just like M-21 said, this is out of my own will."

There was a glimmer in Frankenstein's eyes. "Oh~ That's exciting. Four is much better than two. I'll be able to collect precise data from this."

The room was filled with the smell of twelve bowls of freshly made ramen that lined the table in a row.

Frankenstein stood in front of the bowl with a tape recorder up. "The Year 2010. Month 00. Day 00. Experiment no. 721. This experiment sets out to investigate whether 20g of green onion, 30g of garlic has any effect on the taste, comparing with experiment no. 691. Three more subjects have been added, so more objective data could be gathered. I expect to conduct a more profound experiment."

Takeo and Tao could only stare in utter blankness. Luciel signed in defeat as M-21 turned away immediately.

The air smelled of freshly cut grass as leafs danced around the gate to the Ye Ran High School as students gathered inside, ready for another day of learning or sleeping through the lessons. The children walked inside an saw a saw crown of students standing around. Shinwu noticed what they all have been staring at. Three good looking men dressed in black suits with the Ye Ran High School guards bands around their arms. M-21, Tao, and Takeo.

"Bro~!" Ikhan called out to Tao who waved back with a grin on his face.

Shinwu turned around and saw Rai, Seira, and Regis walking through the gate, gathering a crown like they usually do. "Rai, come on!" He called out. "The big bros are going to work here starting today!"

Everyone smiled and waved at the noble as he walked in, and very slightly a smile came to Raizel's lips.

At the moment, A person walked through the gate behind them, carrying a large stake of papers with one hand that covered the side of their face. She casually walked by the field like the papers weighed nothing. Out in the field though, A couple of students were out playing baseball. One kid lined up the shot as the pitter tossed the ball across the yard. The hitter slammed the ball with his bat and it made a loud ringing sound. He laughed at his accomplishment it flew back across the field.

"Nice sho..." The pitcher was about to say till he realized that that ball was heading towards the paper-carrying person. "Where are you aiming!? Hey, miss!" They both screamed out in a panic as the ball honed in on the lady's blind spot.

Shinwu's turned his head in the direction of the scream and his eyes widen. "Watch out!"

He called out and was about to take a running start to save the lady. He knew he wasn't going to make it but the strangest thing happened as the ball closed in on her. Her other arm, the only free one, shot out from underneath the occupied paper and caught the ball in a swift motion without even looking. Everyone was just too shocked to say anything as the papers lowered slight, and the person was revealed. Her long purple hair danced int he freeze and a smile crept to her lips when she looked down at the ball.

Luciel looked up at the field students. "You have a nice arm, but try to turn your body in a slightly different direction so it won't go out this way, okay?" She called back calmly with a smile, tossed the ball back over to the players.

The hitter fumbled to catch the ball. He looked back up with a red face as the beautiful women smiled at him. "T-Thank you, and sorry!"

Luciel laughed and waved it off. "Oh, don't worry about it! I wasn't hurt!" She carried on towards the school as people began to mumble and the rumors flooded the ground.

"Isn't that the chairman's wife?"

"So she's back? I thought that she worked over sea's."

"She's so cool!"

Of course, none of those rumors were true, but all the students knew of that picture on their chairman's desk so they all just assumed that she was his wife, despite Frankenstein not saying anything about it in the past.

People continued to mumble as Shinwu started in amazement. She didn't even see the ball and her reflexes kicked at the moment when it got too close. "That was cool." He breathed out.

Yuna giggled. "She really is something, right?"

Frankenstein signed as he stared down at the data he got from the experiment. He adjusted the glasses on his face and leaned back in his chair. "Then the taste gets..." He mumbled when a sudden knock came to his door and he looked up. "Come in." He called back. The door opened and Frankenstein smiled when he was greeted with a sight that never gets old. "Are those the papers for today, secretary?"

Luciel stepped inside and gave Frankenstein a smile that seemed to brighten up the room in seconds. "Indeed they are, chairman."

Days will pass and suns will set. Moons will hang, but that night will always be ingratiated in his head. The sound of her distressed scream, the ear rupturing explosion, but all that seemed to be void now. Like it was just a bad dream. Not just Frankenstein, but Luciel too felt like they could but forget that night and these worrisome memories that had pleaded them for the last 900 years. Even despite the origins of Luciel's being and the fact that she was literally placed together to create a frightening beast, a chimera. But truly, it was all very deceiving when she looked like this. The way her eyes light up when she smiled and laugh that came from the bottom of her heart.
