Hi again! I really hope that you enjoyed chapter 1 even though it was short….
Komui just sat there… his face was blank, lifeless… He felt as if his very soul had been torn from his body and was split in two. Komui just couldn't believe, no, wouldn't believe what had been said to him. Was it some kind of sick joke among the Science Department? Or was it a spiteful message from someone out to get him? Or maybe it was true… NO! It couldn't be true, Komui told himself. Reever placed a hand on Komui's shoulder in a vain attempt to comfort his supervisor. Komui just shrugged it off and stared at him…
"Reever, what kind of sick joke are you trying to pull?" said Komui while still in a daze…
"Komui…. I... I know it's hard but you have to accept that your sister is gone now, but she's in a better place now…" said Reever struggling to find the right words the whole time.
"I… I want to be alone now, please…" Komui stuttered as he was trying with all his might to fight back the river of tears that was building up in his already glossy eyes.
"We understand Supervisor…." said 65 as Reever lead Komui out of the room to his bedroom.
In the Unknown House
Allen was still sleeping when Road reentered the room… She had been thinking a lot over the past few days about how to make him useful to the Noah Clan…
"Allen…" Road said in an almost motherly tone. "I brought food…" this time shaking Allen slightly.
Allen woke with a start. Then he graciously accepted the food and thanked Road for it. He still hated her from the depths of his heart but he was grateful for her help…
"Road… I understand why you are helping me, but why are you still helping me even after I tried to strangle you about ten times?"
"Well you haven't killed me yet… So I think it's still okay for me to take care of your wounds!" chirped Road.
"Well…. Thank you Road, for everything…" Allen said as gave her a half hearted smile and drifted off to sleep again…
"Oooooooo! He's sooo cute when he's asleep!" piped Road while trying not to wake him.
In Komui's room
A month had passed since that tragic day when the Black Order lost 3 of its most valuable exorcists. Komui hadn't left his room even once since then. He wouldn't even talk to anyone about it and just sat on his bed all day staring out the window as if LenaLee would come back to him if he kept staring.
There was a knock at the door…
"Komui… may I come in?" there was no response… So Reever opened the door and came in.
"Komui, I just want to talk…" Komui just kept staring… "you don't even have to reply, just hear me out… The whole Order is worried sick about you… we're afraid you're going to hurt yourself…"
"Reever… it's true isn't it… L-L-L-LenaLee is d-d-d-dead!" Komui turned towards Reever and then started crying so much he was shaking.
Reever was so surprised when Komui spoke to him he had fallen out of his chair because this was the first time Komui had spoken to anyone in a month. But he was now making his was over to his Supervisor and started comforting him as if he was a child… Reever hugged him and started rocking him back and forth.
"Shuu, shuu, it's ok, everything is going to be alright…"
In Millennium Earl's Dining Room
Allen peered around nervously… Today was the first day he would be dining with the Noah Family… He was sitting next to Road while she was attempting to do her homework.
"IT'S NOT SWEET ENOUGH!!!!!!" screamed Skin, a rather large and strong Noah with a very short temper.
"You wouldn't know sweet, if it bit you in the butt!" said a Noah sitting on top of another Noah's head.
"Yeah! Yeah! You wouldn't know sweet if it bit you in the butt! Hahahaha!!!!! You just keep thinking it's sweet!" said the Noah being sat on, while she threw an egg at Skin.
A food fight broke out between the three and resulted in Relo having his face shoved in to a fruit. Road was laughing so hard that she fell out of her chair and at this Allen became less tense and actually laughed. Once Road was back in her chair and everyone calmed down she introduced Allen to them.
"This is Skin," she said as she pointed at the large Noah. "And this is Debitto," she pointed at the one siting on top of the other Noah. "And lastly… this is Jasdero," she pointed at the one being sat on.
"Together we're Jasdebi!!!!!!!" squeaked Jasdero.
"Uh… nice to meet you?" said Allen, who had calmed down considerably after Road's little spill. But that calmness was quickly stripped from his body when he heard an oh too famliar voice…
"Good evening!"
Allen stiffened. He looked and hoped he wouldn't see what he thought he would see. Then he grabbed Road's arm and started to panic…
"Hi, Millenie!" called Road while waving with her free arm not attempting to free her other arm… For she was enjoying it…
"Yo, Tyki!" Road said to a tall, dark, genltlemanly looking man in a top hat and suit with tails.
"Yo, Road."
"Allen! So nice of you to join us!" said the Earl.
Allen just stared at the Earl… Allen wouldn't let go of Road's arm. For some reason it made him feel safe, as if no one would hurt him…
"Allen, you've already met Millenie, so this is Tyki!"
After Earl and Tyki were seated, everyone started to eat… Everyone except Allen. Allen had now realized that he was 'behind enemy lines' and any move he made could result in his death…
"Allen… why aren't you eating? I know how hungery you get…" said Road with a concerned look on her doll like face. Allen didn't reply, he couldn't, even if he wanted to… "Allen… are you feeling okay?" Road asked. Allen still didn't respond…
"Um… I don't think Allen's feeling too well… I'll take him to his room to get some rest…" said a concerned Road.
Once they were out of there, Allen felt so much better. But he was still fearing for his life… Road was leading to his room he had been residing in for the last month. It had been like his safe haven and he only left it with Road by his side. When they reached his room, he felt as if he would never be safe while he was here…
"Road… I'm so sorry… I just don't feel safe here… I don't think I'll ever be safe while I'm here… I have to leave…"
"Allen don't talk like that! I don't want you to go so you won't go! I'll keep you here no matter what and you don't have to worry about being safe… as long as I tell them not to touch you, they won't…"
"Road… I…"
"No. You're not feeling well… I'm going to put you to bed and I'll be in again later to check on you and I'll bring you some soup…"
"I…"
"BED, NOW!"
