A/N; I really managed to get another chapter out. O-O My muse seems to have died for Memories of Neah currently. Orz. I guess I'll keep updating this until it returns along with Pupp…Arashi's muse.

It was rare that Neah got to go out, especially on his own inside Allen's body. There really wasn't much of a difference in appearance between the two...but it was easy to tell that Allen wasn't there currently. The eyes were different. Neah's eyes were gentle, but had this cold and calculating look behind them. Eyes that could turn from that graceful gray to a tempest gray.
Neah easily opened Kanda's door, poking his head in. He wasn't there, must be in one of the other rooms. "I'm going out, Yu. If you need anything…well…you're out of luck then. There is a door next door that'll lead outside to Rome…or was it the one across the street…oh well." Without waiting for a response, Neah shut the door behind him and began moving down the white sidewalks of the Ark City. He passed at least six buildings before turning right down an alley towards another door.
This was the door that lead to Komui's office in the Black Order headquarters in London, he and Allen had set it up shortly after they began working with each other. To spy on the Order. Neah was making use of this door right now. Pulling out a key, he slid it into the lock. All the doors that lead into the Order were locked. He didn't want them to use his and Allen's Ark, not after what they did to him. Levellier had to be the worst out of all of them though…imprisoning Allen for helping his friends, calling him a traitor…and what Neah remembered of the past...his family had sold out to the Order and allowed experimenting to go on with their own family members, all for money and status.
Not all humans were horrible…but this man was one of the worst. And while Allen was distracted…he would make him suffer. Opening the door into Komui's office, papers fluttering in the air from the sudden rush of wind from the opening of the door, Neah stepped in, shutting the door behind him. "Komui Lee."
Allen liked Komui, Neah knew…he was the older brother to Lenalee Lee, and although he didn't care for the other Lee…Komui seemed like a likeable guy minus all the crazed robots and his sister-complex. Then again…Neah had a nephew-complex…so they were kindred spirits in that sense.
"Allen-kun," Komui was shocked to see the boy, but the suddenly smile that passed the face of Neah told him otherwise. "The Fourteenth…" He began moving towards the door in case of emergency, but managed to stay unusually calm. "So Allen-kun is…"
"Doing homework~" Neah trilled pleasantly, shocking the other with his pleasantries. "Why yes, I would be the Fourteenth, Neah. My cute nephew is just fine…sort of. I mean I did leave him with a bunch of piano pieces to learn...difficult ones at that. It's probably driving him insane." Neah held up a hand in peace. "He's just fiiiine. We have a good thing going on here."
Komui visibly calmed down, knowing that Allen was safe. Ever since the boy had left the Order…he'd always been worried about him. "Why…are you here…Neah was it?"
"Eh. Various things," Neah stated vaguely, sitting on the edge of Komui's desk. "You really should clean your office…it's a mess." He hopped down and moved towards the door to leave. "Well…I have business here, Komui. Allen says hello, as does Kanda." Neah looked back and Komui's confused face and smiled. "You're too good for the Order with their closed minds, and cruelty. The third side, mine and my nephew's side against the Earl, and your Black Order, could use a great mind like you. Allen's already requested Lenalee and the bookman apprentice to join us, and we already have Yu Kanda as well. Think about it. I'm off to find a certain man." The smile that suddenly crossed Neah's lips chilled Komui, but as a soft humming passed through Neah's lips, Komui forgot what he was about to do, and instead flounced out the door passed the 14th and down the hallway. "Lenaleeeee. Your brother wants some coffeeee and I demand a huuuug."
Neah chuckled softly, and began walking and humming at the same time, weaving an illusion through his hums. Anybody who would have seen him no longer did, but instead saw a blank space where he would be. It was almost like being invisible, only not.
As he moved through the hallways, he began to alter his form. His pale skin turned ashen gray, the white hair darkened until it was a lovely shade of black. The stigmata of the Noah crossed his forehead, and one eye flashed gold, the other remaining silver. Another smile, that well-known Noah smile crossed his features as he caught sight of his prey. His humming halted, and he began to softly whistle, catching the attention of the man. Continuing to whistle, Levellier was lead down a dark hallway.
Neah's fingers suddenly found Levellier's neck, and slammed him into the wall and held him there a few inches off the ground. "So you're Levellier." He stated simply, digging his nails into the soft flesh of his throat, drawing blood. Neah eyed the crimson liquid for a second before snorting. "I doubt it would taste good anyway,"
"N-Noah," the man started to say, his hands rising to Neah's in a futile attempt to remove them, this only caused Neah's grip to tighten and smash the man into the wall across from it, face first. "The Fourteenth to be exact. You caused my nephew to suffer." He brought Levellier's face towards him again. "After all he did for you bastards as an Exorcist…you treated him like he was a traitor."
Hearing the sounds of footsteps heading towards him, Neah began to hum softly, weaving an illusion for all to see before turning his attention back to Levellier. "I hate it when people hurt him. He doesn't deserve it," Neah hissed, digging his fingers harder into the neck of the despicable man, successfully cutting of his air supply. "I hate humans like you…you're the worst of the worst," Neah stated, dropping the man to the ground now and placing a foot on the side of his head, threatening to crush it.
"I should kill you…I really should…but it would hurt my nephew. Knowing that his hands took the life of a human…" Neah leaned over Levellier's ear, his voice lowered to an almost amused tone. "You've always turned a blind eye to the Order's cruelty…the Second Exorcist program, the Third Exorcists…" Neah would have continued, but impatience suddenly got the better of him and he plunged his index finger into the man's left eye, and then his right. "You turning a blind eye to everything…you are now blind yourself." Neah smiled, turned the man's head over, watching the blood course down his face. "And so you can not simply place the blame on my adorable nephew…I will also be taking that ugly little voice of yours…" Leaning over the man's throat, Neah hummed a few notes and an eerie gray smoke arose from the man's throat where his vocal chords would have been, and Neah grasped it between his fingers, but then released it and watched it vanish into the air. "An ability of mine, the Fourteenth's, is the ability to steal voices…I could have added it to my own voice and been able to copy yours…but it's far too /filthy/ for the likes of myself and Allen."
The Fourteen easily rose to his feet, delicately licking the blood on his finger tips, the grimaced. "I was right. Nasty." Instead, he wiped it on the man's shirt and began to walk away, humming again to cause the illusion to vanish. "The next time you see Allen Walker? I want you to grovel at his feet for forgiveness and thank him for sparing your pathetic life." He easily formed an Ark Gate, and stepped in, making it vanish before anybody could see the gate.
A few minutes later, Levellier's still form was discovered and the alarm was risen.
"Ah…I almost forgot…" Neah stepped out of the Ark again, but this time in the Science Division's room. He waved pleasantly. "Johnny, Reever, Russell…" He moved passed the stunned group who then began sounding the alarm about a Noah in the Science Division…but Neah picked up Mugen, and clicked his tongue. "Later. Allen misses you all, and hopes you'll join us on the Third Side. Lenalee and Lavi should have Tim with them. They'll show you the way to my cute nephew." With that, Neah stepped into the ark with Kanda's sword, staring at it curiously. "Rusted…eh. He'll know what to do with it…probably."
Snapping his fingers, Neah moved to close the gate…but only to acquire a passenger in the Ark. "It's you." Neah stated idly, shifting back to Allen's normal form as he glanced down at the figure that had grabbed the back of his shirt.
"Uncle Moyashi! What were you thinking showing up in the Order like that? Especially to do that to Levellier as well…what would Allen think?" the tall red-head demanded, holding his hammer over his shoulder as he released the Noah and leaned against a building. He glanced back sadly at the closed door that lead back to the Order…if only Lenalee had come with him…but she wasn't going to go without her brother. He'd left Timcampy with her, however in case she changed her mind and came…
"Bookman...Lavi…whatever your name is, Allen doesn't need to know about this. The man deserved it, and you know it. And what's with this 'Uncle Moyashi' nonsense?"
"You're Moyashi's uncle, aren't you? And you're about the same height…and I think Allen deserves to know that you tried to kill Levellier. It's his hands you used." Lavi stated, walking beside the other through the door that lead to his and Allen's own bedroom.
Neah shrugged his shoulder, pulling off his bloodied shirt and chucking it onto the bed. "I'll tell him in due time. He's a bit swamped with Musician training at the moment, Lavi."
It was clear that Neah had no sense of modesty because he was stripping in front of Lavi…but he had nothing to be ashamed of. "Now…if you'd stop staring at me…I'm going to go take a bath," Shoving Mugen into Lavi's hands, he then snapped his fingers and shooed Lavi into Kanda's room. "I'll make you your own room later…for now, just bother Kanda." His gaze softened slightly. "I'll…tell Allen later, alright?"
"Good. It's the right thing to do for Allen," Lavi stated, glancing back at him then back into the room. "Yuuuuu-chaaaan I have a preseeent for yooou."
Neah closed the door behind him after hearing an annoyed yell from Kanda of "Baka Usagi!" He smiled gently. His own family was growing…and soon it would be able to stand against the Earl's family as well at the Black Order.
A/N; So Neah's sadistic side made an appearance to Levellier. I don't feel sorry for the man.
Lenalee might join at a later time…but for now it's just Lavi. Lenalee wouldn't join without her brother with her.
Lavi already knew Kanda was with them…simply because Neah came for Mugen. And if anybody hasn't noticed, Lavi's in love with Lenalee. Because I like that pairing.
And the fact Neah likes Komui just makes me giggle…and his lack of shame. He doesn't care who he gets naked in front of. ;D Rating goes up with this chapter.
I hope this long chapter makes up for the shortness of that last one. Thanks for reading.
Next Chapter; Allen joins the Noah family.
