A/N: Well now the actual story begins twisting the original happenings in the manga somewhat…
III. The Black Priests' Destruction Incident
Supervisor Komui Lee was napping peacefully on the couch of his office, which like usually was littered full with undone paperwork. Squad Leader Reever Wenham, the unfortunate soul who usually needs to hunt the other down and get him to work, was currently smuggling with a few other scientists they boss's newest potions away. You never know what those things could do to you if the Supervisor with a sister-complex forces you to become a test subject. This was probably the ground why no one noticed the four crystal like object appearing in Komui's office. The glowing white crystals then started growing till the number 247 appeared on the largest one on the top and the space between the glowing diamonds reminded on rippled silver water. Soon a figure emerged from the silver surface which closed behind him and disappeared. The figure looked searchingly around the room till a soft snore hit his ears. Rolling his eyes in annoyance, but also slight amusement, the figure walked around the couch and leaned down to the sleeping body.
"Che, who would have thought that I would ever miss this sight." he whispered to himself before leaning near the other's ear "Komui, Lenalee is marrying the Baka Usagi." then quickly stepped away from the outburst which surely come when the sleeping body shoot up in to a sitting position.
"NOOOO!!!!! MY BELOVED LITTLE LENALEE, HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO YOUR POOR BROTHER! THAT SLIMY OCTOPUS OF A BOOKMAN WANABE WILL NEVER TOUCH YOU!!!" the Chinese man wailed in something boarding to histery.
"Calm down you idiotic sister-complex she isn't marrying the rabbit." Kanda snapped "…not yet at least" he added mentally as an afterthought.
This finally calmed him down, but now turned Komui in to his direction. Kanda felt mild amusement when the Supervisor's eyes widened in shock at the realization. Well true, he hadn't changed that much in appearance only his clothing had been somewhat modified. It still was the same stile as his first uniform with the changes that the silver trimmings were missing, the sleeves were bell shaped and the neck part was tighter not that loose as his old uniform's, the glove covering his left hand was the only white he wore. Both Lenalee and Bookman had remarked to him once that it looked like as if he would be still mourning. They could be right, seeing that he was always a hard person to understand and from the only three people that managed that had he already lost two. Deciding that he needed to get over with the start, Kanda leaned against the desk which was packed full with untouched piles of paperwork and looked at the other.
"I see you managed to recogrinaise me." well, he was still not good with starting conversations without an insult or death threat so this was good work.
"K…Kanda-kun…what…what happened I mean you and Allen-kun just finished your mission a few days ago and…" he stocked suddenly "Oh god, was there something strange on your mission what made you age." Kanda didn't like that gleam in his eyes, he still remembered that damned potion which made him a kid again.
"No there were no problems on that mission. To be honest, it was finished pretty early even." Kanda replied in a dismissing way before his dark eyes bore in to Komui's who looked somewhat lost. "Now listen here because I hate repeating myself. Yes I'm the Kanda you know, but still different. I'm General Kanda Yuu and with the help of a device about which you will later know have I traveled ten years back in time." the samurai stopped to see if the other was still following "In about four years will the Earl of Millennium attack the Vatican and completely destroy it. We lost many on that day, but to name three you know; Bookman, my master General Tiedoll and the Moyashi. "Komui gasped in shock at that and Kanda could see tears in his eyes "Many others got injured, some scars will remain forever. After the attack started the Earl to systematically whip out the whole Black Order, only this and the Asian branch survived because the Moyashi made sure of it. In the time from where I come belongs already half of the world to the Earl and those lands are only populated by Akuma. In other lands live people in terror and the Exorcists are hated and blamed for our failure, only few still trust us. As you can see the future is dark and I'm here to set some things right."
"This is terrible…" was the only thing Komui could say, he didn't want anyone to suffer in such a future and then the thought that Allen would die only in four years.
"There is one other thing, don't tell anyone about what my mission contains only Bookman, but I will personally inform him. You are allowed to inform those who are currently in the HQ and later those who returned about my presence. This will cause less shock, but if you let something slip…" with that found Komui himself face to face with Mugen's sharp end.
"Ugh…hehe…I…I see you still settle for violence Kanda-kun."
The introduction and the short explaining caused some interesting reactions and Kanda was sure he heard a few comment along the lines of "Please no dear God a second Kanda", "General! We are doomed he is even stronger now." "Do you think there is a chance to get transferred to the Oceania branch?". If he wouldn't have more important things to do then they would surely get hell from him. Walking now in the room Komui assigned to him had he some time to relax. Lenalee tried to paster him full with questions about the future and his mission, really was she always that hyper like the Usagi? If yes, then they truly were a match made in Heaven. Mentioning that idiot with a death wish, he needed to be careful, Bookman and Komui were the only ones needing to know about the details of his mission. Well at least those he would tell them. With a sigh Kanda lay down on the white bed knowing that soon he would be faced with one of the hardest parts of his mission…facing the Allen Walker of this time. To be honest he was not sure how he would react, seeing Alma again sure wasn't positive on him back then and the other was his first best friend and something similar to a brother. Heh, so here goes a new similarity to the Moyashi, they both had siblings with whom they weren't even blood related or adopted in to they family. His trail of thoughts was then suddenly broken by the sound of groaning and the soft pulling of the bed sheets. Probing himself up on the elbows looked Kanda curiously at the little rag doll which tried desperately to climb up on the bed. Watching the show for a few minutes decided the samurai to help the doll out and put her on his knee.
"I was already due time that you help me." the doll snapped before starting to pout.
"I had my mind on other things." the samurai replied.
"So I have noticed, but at least pay some attention to me. I still don't even understand why I need to be in this form." she said while crossing her fingerless arms in front of her chest.
"Road, in this current part of the past had no one met any of the Noah. Beside that, your first introduction wasn't that shining if I remember right." Kanda lectured her while she pouted. Really, Allen had certainly rubbed off on him.
"Yeah, I know…"
"That aside, when do you plan getting your siblings?" that was something about the dark haired samurai was really curious about. They hade decided that Kanda would take care about the things by the Order while Road tried to get the Noah to realize the truth, but she never told him how.
"You will know when the time comes for me to step in to action, don't forget Yuu I'm still the Noah of Dreams." she replied smirking.
"I know…we should get now some rest." advised Kanda as he lay back on the bed with his eyes closed while outside a storm had broken out.
The boat hit gently against the dock of the hidden water way which lead inside the Black Order HQ. The water inside the through human hand created path was calm, unlike outside. A young boy with snow white hair and a red pentacle like scar climbed out of it, yawning and stretching somewhat.
"We got back pretty late." He admitted while starting to rub his sleepy eyes. His journey back from the city of Martel was long.
"This storm delayed our train." answered Toma while securing the boat. The Finder had grown on the mission pretty fond of the boy who was the newest addition to the exorcist. Beside that, he also owned him his life.
"It is already midnight…What do we do with the Innocence we retrieved?" Allen asked while still rubbing his eyes, the little golden golem still floating on his side. Timcampy was still a bit displeased from the fact that a Level 2 had destroyed him.
"If you go to the Science Group, there should be someone still awake." Toma suggested at which he received a thankful smile. It felt in some way good to him how they work was appreciated by the other.
"Ok, I'll try there." but just as Allen was about to walk up on the stone stairs, the sound of something falling down hit his ears. Looking down in confusion his eyes widened in shock at the sight of the familiar body laying at his feet. "Wha…? Le…Lenalee!? What happened!" he asked in panic as he picked her up. Were they being attacked or was she just sick?
"You…you're back Allen…" he heard suddenly a tried, but still familiar voice say from the stairs. Looking up he spotted a hardly battered looking Reever leaning against the cold wall for support, right arm clenching his left. "Reever!?" he heard himself call before hurrying over to the scientist, supporting him carefully. "This wound…did something happen?"
"R…run." was the answer he got anstead "Komurin is coming…"
"What?"
Allen got his answer when a giant robot with a beret crushed the wall beside them sending parts of the wall crashing to the ground.
"It's here!" Reever commented while Allen stared in shock at the thing. A new hit made them crash to the side, luckily they could so avoid to get crushed by the rumble.
"Wh…What is that? What is that?" the writing 'Science Group' gave him only a little idea, while he and Reever were sitting in the water, Lenalee's limp body against his shoulder.
"Damn…he's so fast!" the older man cursed when the robot fixated itself on the two Exorcists.
"…Located!!" it suddenly said. "Lenalee Lee. Allen Walker. Two Exorcists located." that didn't sound good.
"Run Allen! This thing is after Exorcists!!" Reever shouted suddenly from his side. Yep that certainly didn't sound good…what a great way to return from your first mission.
"It's time for surgery…!!" that thing shouted in something acking to glee which of course was for Allen the cue to grab Lenalee and run like hell. Unfortunately, they attacker headed after them, leaving destruction in its wake.
"WAAAAAH, it's following us, it's following us!" well excuse him for being in slight panic when a large robot you saw for the first time in your live wants to do a surgery on you. "Reever! What the hell is going on!?" Allen felt his patience growing tin while his system pumped adrenalin through his veins.
"That thing is Komurin, "how helpful knowing the name of that thing" an omnipotent robot that Komui made…"he really should have figured from the beret with the large 'K' letter on it" As you can see, it's out of control!"
"WHY!?" even a blind could see that, that it was out of control, but Allen referred himself from commenting that seeing that Reever continued with the explaining.
"…and that's the story. Sorry that it's such a lame story." Reever said as they managed to hide to catch they breath. "How stupid…" was the first thought which come to both Allen's and Toma's mind after managing to puss away the scary pictures about the unconscious girl with them as a macho with muscles like Hercules.
"Is Lenalee going to be ok?" Allen asked a bit concerned for the girl who was so nice to him when he come here though there was one other thing that also come to his mind while looking at her. "She's an Exorcist to, huh…" he really should have known because of her uniform, but it was still surprising.
"She's only sleeping because Komurin hit her with anesthetics." Reever reassured him as he leaned against the wall, a tired smile on his lips. "Ha…maybe this all happened because we all wanted our work to be easier…"
"Huh?" well he was still pretty new here.
"You Exorcists and Finders are out there facing life threatening situations, sorry about that." he said while looking at the boy before saying something at which Allen felt old memories flooding him. "Welcome back." as those two simple words left the scientist's lips could Allen hear a second, cherished voice bound to a kind face looking at a little brown haired boy. "Welcome back, Allen." those words had always meant so much to him as did the first person telling him those for the first time in his live. Mana…
"Allen?" Reever called out again to the spaced out boy, there was sadly no time for this.
"Huh…ah, yes!" he had finally snapped back to focus.
"Hey, what's up? Do your injuries from your mission still hurt? I got the report."
"No, I'm fine." he replied hurriedly. "I'm…I'm back."
"Heyyyyy, are you alive…!?" the little group heard suddenly someone call. Looking over the railing of the balcony they spotted the floating lift.
"Supervisor! Everyone!" sure enough there were the scientist, by most had they hair become bushy from the explosion Komurin had created, they white laboratory coats spotted with black.
"Squad Leader! Hurry over here!"
"Please, be caught!"
"Oh, Allen and Toma are back too. Get over here…" Johnny called to them while…holding out a grinning teddy?
"Lenalee! Are you still slim!?" Komui screamed while waving both his arms like mad.
"Calm down, everyone…" Reever called back to them, but then suddenly the wall caved in behind them.
"IT'S HERE!"
Dark blue eyes flew suddenly open as the room started suddenly to shake. Sitting up groggily, this is what you get for not sleeping properly in the past weeks, and rubbing his eyes Kanda looked around. Remembering that he had started his mission, he relaxed somewhat, till he heard a new crash.
"Ugh…what is that noise…" Road asked while rubbing her button eyes.
"I don't know, hmm…was there something whi…damn…" Kanda suddenly jumped up from the bed and grabbed Mugen.
"What is wrong?" Road asked worriedly.
"The Moyashi was due to return at midnight and that just happened to be the day where that idiot Komui's Komurin II went loose." the samurai replied before running out of the room. Damn, how the hell could he have nearly overslept this.
Running out on the balcony he really needed to thank his quick reflexes that he managed to dodge before being shot. It was one thing that his damn lotus was pretty much fixed, though that damned thing was still mocking him, but repairing a hole in your abdomen was pretty painful. Unlike to popular beliefs was General Kanda Yuu no masochist. Really what the fuck was his squad thinking about him? He was nice enough to not include Akuma-bullets in to his 'Extreme Akuma Battle Training' plans. If those little pansies can't even fight against a Converted Akuma properly, then those with the actual INTENTION to kill them will surely do the trick. Avoiding a new bullet managed Kanda to look down before groaning. That idiot Komui had tried to stop the canon build inside the floating lift to shoot his damned robot and it become a shooting forays wheel. Really by that entire racket they hadn't managed to wake even one of the Grand Generals? Some people had a really deep sleep here. Looking down again he saw that the Science Group had thrown themselves at Komui while Reever was shouting before they sent the tied up man up to Komurin. Kanda had a strange feeling, his expression darkening when he saw that large bunch of metal turn in to the direction of HIS Moyashi before an arm shoot out and started dragging him inside. He saw Allen struggling while Reever grabbed Lenalee, who the white haired Exorcist had pushed aside. Kanda relaxed his grip somewhat on Mugen when he saw that Allen was activating the canon form of his Anti-Akuma Weapon which was born due to his rage against that Level 2. Though now that he is remembering they first mission together, that sight of the two Allen's so close to…damn that Gentleman-pervert really rubbed of on him. Turning his focus back on the battle below, he come to a conclusion. That idiot scientist with a sister complex would pay dearly for daring to shoot his Moyashi with that needle, but first he needed to save the boy first. Tightening his grip on Mugen's hilt Kanda jumped down just as Lenalee started regaining her consciousness again while in the background was Komui still screaming "NOT MACHOOO!!!"
