Lady Hawke
By Belletiger Bt

Chapter 2- How the bird met her wolf.

At the inn, Lenalee was reporting to her brother what happened to them in the Lucian town. She told him about the miners, the man with his hawk, the mysterious girl that saved them in the forest, and how a giant wolf protect her from Kanda when he tried to stop her from walking away.

"I see." Komui said through the phone. "Can you describe her?"

"Well, we couldn't see well because of the darkness, but we could see she had a white hair and a red pentacle mark on her face."

Komui was quiet for a minute. Lenalee blinked confused, it was odd for her brother to be quiet, even for a minute. Does he know the girl?

"What do you want us to do, brother?" Lenallee asked.

"Look for the hawk for now." Komui said. "If you meet this girl again, try to convince her to join the Order. And Lenalee, be careful ok?"

"Don't worry, we will."

With that, she hangs out the phone, finishing their conversation.

At the headquarters, Komui was thinking after Lenalee's description of the girl. A red pentacle on her face? Komue opened a drawer from his desk and took an envelope dressed to him from General Cross. He re-read the letter from the running away general, he was sure the way Lenalee described the girl was the same way Cross described his student who was suppose to come to them four years ago.

It was still dark when the girl with her wolf woke up. Rubbing her eyes, as she stretched out and yawned while bringing herself out of her sleep-like trance. She looked at her pocket- watch; only a few minutes before dawn. She noticed her wolf was still sleeping next to her. The girl smiled softly petted her wolf very carefully to not wake him up.

"Hey Tyki, I had that dream. The dream when I met you in your black and white forms." Whispered her.

The girl named Allen Walker stared to remember how she met her beloved Tyki.

*Flashback*

It was one of those days where Allen Walker had to work to pay off all those debts her bastard of a master had put on her name. Today, Allen would work as a miner somewhere in Portugal. She was wearing some casual male cloths to make sure none of the miners found out that she's was a girl or else she would be doomed. Also she had covered her left arm with bandages to hide her deformed arm. Then, as she turned another corner, she accidentally bumped right into someone. She staggered back, rubbing her face where she had hit the stranger's side.

"Ow, ow!" Allen rubbed her face as she nearly stumbled back.

The stranger she had hit was a light-skinned man that looked like he was in his early twenties. He was dressed casually and wore thick glasses and his hair was dark and all messy. Turning his head, the male turned forward and looked down at Allen.

"Excuse me, sir," Allen apologized. "I didn't mean to bump into you like that."

The dark haired man just smiled as he adjusted his glasses.

"No problem." The dark haired man said, smiling. "You're the new guy, aren't you?" Allen nodded "Welcome to the crew! I am Tyki Mikk. If you need anything, just call me ."Tyki said patting Allen's head. Allen glared. She did not enjoy being treated like a dog.

As time passed, Tyki and Allen become good friends. Allen even made friendships with two other miners; John and Cole. The four of them eat together and they liked to eat any meal that Allen prepared ( She learned how to cook thanks to her old jobs in restaurants) . Though Tyki didn't know that Allen was a girl, he always joked about how she would be a good wife while he hugged her like she was his favorite teddy bear. Allen was happy with her new friends until her and Tyki's secret were revealed to each other.

It was one more day of work when everything happened. Allen was doing her usual duties when her cursed eye activated. She hissed. If her cursed eye is activated that means only thing; there's an Akuma nearby.

"Hey rookie, what's up?" Asked a random miner in company of another older miner. That's when she noticed the older miner was an Akuma.

"GET AWAY FROM HIM!" She shouted. Before either of them could react however, an explosion happened inside of the mine.

Outside of the mine, the miners looked horrified when the explosion happened and created a cave in. The miners quickly stared to dig; to rescue their trapped comrades. John was being cared by two of their comrades, his face was all bloody. Tyki rushed to his friend.

"John, are you alright?" Tyki asked to his friend, worried.

"Y-yeah, I was lucky I was near of the exist when the explosion happened." Then John looked at Tyki worried. "But Tyki, Allen-chan is still inside of the mine."

"What?"

Back inside, Allen moaned in pain. She looked down as she saw a stick coming out from the right side of her belly and another stick in her left hand, holding her in the place. She gritted her teeth in pain. She must have been thrown into them when the explosion happened. She saw the Akuma L1 standing before her. She tried to active her innocence but the stick in her hand didn't allow her to, the nerves most have been damaged. When the Akuma was about to fire on her, a shadow appeared before her.

"Back off, Akuma."

Allen's eyes widen in surprise. It was Tyki without his glasses on. But how did he get there? Wasn't he outside of the mine when the explosion happened? And Tyki looked pissed which scared her even more.

"I said BACK OFF!"

Then, Tyki's skin stared to get darker as his eyes become a golden color that seemed to glow in the dark, marks appeared in his forehead that looked like crosses. Allen didn't know what happened. What happened to Tyki and why that Akuma looked so frighten?

Tyki, in his new form, looked softly at Allen as he kneed beside her. Allen was scared. She didn't understand what was happening even as Tyki hugged her in a protective way. Allen blushed as she hears Tyki muttering something she couldn't hear well.

"Activate; self destruction."

That's when another explosion happened and Allen's lost consciousness.

Allen moaned in pain as she finally opened her eyes. She noticed she was in an unknown room, with her wounds bandaged. She placed her right hand on her face, as she tried to remember what happened in the mine and how did she got out. Then she remembered Tyki's transformation. Did she image that? She must have hit her head hard.

"I see you're awake."

Allen turned her head to the right and she saw Tyki sitting in a chair next to her bad. He still was wearing his casual clothes, but his skin was gray with the cross marks on his forehead and gold eyes. She gulped. She wasn't imagined things; It was really Tyki but with a darker skin.

"I see you have questions you want to ask."

Allen looked to the other side, avoiding looking Tyki in the eyes. "I guess you also have some questions that you need answers to also."

"Yeah, but I admit I knew you were a girl for a while." Admitted Tyki as he lights a cigar in his mouth, Allen eyes widen in surprise as she looked at him.

"Since when?"

Tyki took his cigar out of his mouth as he puffed some smoke.

"A couple of weeks ago." Tyki answered. "I was in the woods getting some wood for the oven when I heard someone singing. I followed the sound until I came to a lake in the woods. I saw you sitting on a rock in the middle of the lake. I admit I was admired you singing under the stars and moonlight." Tyki said as he smiled. "You sing like a mermaid."

BAM!

Before Tyki knew what happened, Allen hits him with her left hand

"Ouch! What the heck was that for?" Tyki snapped as he placed his hand on his check where Allen had hit with her left hand.

"You saw me naked!" Allen snapped back, with her face as red as a tomato from anger and embarrassment. Tyki blushed in embarrassment.

"I didn't see anything! I only saw your back!" exclaimed Tyki. "Besides, there's nothing much to show, I mean, your bust is small. No wonder the other guys and I never noticed you were a girl at the beginning."

BAM!

That's when Allen hits Tyki again.

"OUCH! That's how you thank your savor for saving your life?" Tyki Snapped.

"Not when my savor is a pervert!" she snapped, "I bet you enjoyed putting bandages on me while I was unconscious, you're a pervert!"

"I am not a pervert, dammit!"

*End of Flashback*

Allen giggled with the memory. Tyki would never admit it but he is a pervert around her. Though they found out each other's secrets, they decide to not reveal them to anybody. Though they were on "opposite sides" and still doing their jobs, Tyki and Allen really cared for each other. It was because of Tyki that Allen never joined to the Black Order and became a freelance exorcist. That's one decision she would never regret making. Then, the wolf beside her woke up.

"Sorry Tyki, did I wake you up?"

The black wolf only nuzzled and licked her face. Allen hugged him around the neck, feeling the warmth of his fur. Though she liked the warmth of his fur, she really missed the warmth of his embrace. Then, the wolf became tense as he got up.

"Tyki?" Allen asked as she also got up. What's up with him?

" Good morning people!" came a marry voice. Allen frozen when she heard that voice. A voice she hoped to never hear again.

"Millennium Earl?"

Kanda was sitting near of the window, looking at the city before the day comes. Lavi was still sleeping, muttering about someone being his type ( Not that Kanda really cared). He was still thinking about that girl and her monstrous wolf. He could feel something odd about both animal and the human girl. Something familiar as he unconsciously placed his hand on his tattoo.

"waaah… come here my sweet little thing." Muttered Lavi, still sleeping and kissing the pillow.

An angry vein appeared in Kanda's forehead before kicking Lavi out of the bed. The red haired Bookman Jr glared at the dark haired exorcist.

"What was that for? You could have waked me up more gently, Yuu-chan!"

"Don't call me that!" Snapped Kanda, glaring at the red haired boy. "And prepare yourself while I wake up Lenalee. We're going to continue look for the bird."

Lavi looked at the clock in the wall and then to the window. He moaned as he returned to the bed,

"Yu-chan...the sun didn't come out yet." Whined Lavi as Kanda glared at him once more. Lavi sighed in defeat, "Alright… let me take a shower first."

Allen glared at the man who had caused a lot of pain to her. She didn't know why the Millennium Earl was there, but she knew it couldn't be good. She looked at the wolf. Her wolf was tensed which Allen can't blame him. But Tyki never would dare to attack the patriarch of the Noah Clan.

"Well, what do I owe you for coming here, oh great Millennium Earl?" Allen asked in a sarcastic tone as she folded her arms. The wolf looked a little worried as Millennium Earl only chuckled.

"I see your personality didn't change after I put a curse on you. That's good, because it's one of the things that makes you so cute." Millennium Earl said marry tone. "Besides, can't I visit my favorite in-law and her husband?"

"Unless it's involves tormenting us more than you already have." Allan said. "You came here to visit us or to complain about that Akuma I destroyed last night?"

"Oh yes, that Akuma." Millennium Earl said as he puts his hand under his chin, as he stared to think. "He had a very unique ability. It's a shame you destroyed it. Really, my life would be easier if you stopped destroying all my Akuma."

"That thing was getting too close where Tyki and his friends work. Beside, Tyki never complained when I destroy your Akuma , and neither do I when he does his work for you. Even when we do not like the jobs that the other does, we never got involved in the business of each other either."

"You are very odd, you know."

"What I can say? I'm stubborn."

Millennium Earl couldn't help but chuckle. He doesn't admit it, but he likes the white haired girl's personality.

"Oh, I like stubborn women." Millennium Earl said to Allen who was still glaring at him "Now I can see why Tyki-pon married you."

"We were very happy before you put this damn curse on us." Hissed Allen as Earl just chuckled, gripping her chin to make her stare at him.

"You two should have thought it before getting married in secret. You know I don't like it when I am not invited to especial occasions." Commented Earl as he blinked. "Oh, by the way, did you bust grow bigger? They are bigger from the last time I saw you."

The Earl only got himself a headbut from a very angry Allen as Tyki, even in his wolf form was glaring at the Noah Patriarch. Even being the patriarch, Tyki does not take kindly to anyone who makes a perverted comment to his lover.

"Get out of here before I rip off what makes you a male!" Allen said as an angry aura was surrendered her as horns come out of her head. The wolf gulped. The sight of a very pissed Allen scares him.

"I guess you have to wait for another occasion, my dear Allen-chan." Millennium Earl chuckled. "Turn around."

When Allen turned around, she gasped in horror. The sun was coming out from the horizon. Allen looked at herself as her body stared to glow at the same time her wolf. Tears came out of her eyes when she saw Tyki in his human form before her.

"Tyki…" she whispered.

"A-Allen…"

Before Tyki could have a chance to touch his lover, Allen fully transformed into a hawk; having chocolate colored wings and silver eyes. Tyki's eyes only widen in surprise as the hawk flew off, only leaving the dress behind. Tyki cried out in regret as he kneed and punched the ground. It was painful, very painful for both of them.

"Good morning, Tyki-pon."

Tyki gasped in surprise when he turned to see the patriarch of the Noah Clan. "E-Earl-sama? Since when did you get here?" Millennium Earl just chuckled.

Though it's painful for Millennium Earl having putting a curse on Tyki as well, he kind of deserved it; for falling in love with an exorcist, even if the girl is not part of the Black Order. And to make things worse, they secretly exchanged their vows which made the Earl even angrier. As a punishment, Millennium Earl put a curse on them where they would be "always together; eternally apart". By day Allen becomes a hawk, by night Tyki becomes a black wolf. Neither has any memory of their half-life in animal form; only at dusk and dawn of each day can they see each other in human form for one fleeting moment, but can never touch.

"Just passing by." Millennium Earl said to Tyki. "Tyki-pon, put some clothes on. I can't stand seeing you naked."

Tyki sighted as he summoned his casual clothes. He looked sadly at the hawk that was in a twig of an old oak. He wonders if Millennium Earl said something to Allen last night. He hates the fact that he can't remember the events from his other half-life.

"Do I have to do some work for you, Earl-sama?" Asked Tyki, sadly.

"Nope, I don't have any jobs for now. Like I said before, I was just passing by. You have some time off with your pet bird." Said Millennium Earl preparing to leave. But Tyki stopped him.

"How much longer you will torture us, Earl-sama?" Tyki asked, "It's been almost 4 years."

"You should have thought about this before falling love with a girl with innocence and never inviting me to the wedding. In a way you betrayed your family like 14th did years before. " Millennium Earl said as Tyki glared at him. The 14th Noah was a delicate subject to the family.

"I am not like the 14th! I would never back stab you like how she did!" snapped Tyki at Earl.

"Falling in love with an exorcist and never inviting any member of your family to your wedding ceremony was stab-back to us, Tyki. Beside, you know you only can see her when you break the curse by yourselves. That was the deal since you're also forbidden to go to the arc or any land ruled by our Noah clan." Millennium Earl said to Tyki. Tyki was now quiet. Ever since he was cursed along with Allen, he was forbidden to go to the arc or any place that Noah ruled. "I will see you both later. Bye Tyki-pon."

With that, Millennium Earl takes his leave, leaving an overwhelm Tyki behind. Tyki was only comforted by the hawk that landed on his shoulder. The hawk was nuzzling him as the Noah of Pleasure stroked the bird's head.

"I promise Allen, we will find a way to break this curse together." Whispered Tyki. "When we do, we will finally be eternally together."

To be continued.

Here is a little preview for the next chapter

XXX

"I will go to my bed chambers. Do not disturbs me"

"Yes, Lulubell-sama." Mimi said as she bowed her. Her mistress got up and went to her bed-chambers.

Mimi hates to see her mistress upset like that; she blames deeply for that girl who stole Lord Tyki from Lulubell. She wanted to do something to make her mistress happy. Thought Millennium Earl had already punished the lovers, the patriarch himself ordered no one of the family touch Tyki's bird. Then, an evil smirk showed on her lips.

"Earl-sama had ordered no one from Noah family to touch that dammed bird, but he never mentioned akuma couldn't either." She giggled evilly.
