~3 days later~
Day: 045 as a comrade.
I awoke in the order's infirmary. It was no surprise to me since I was accustomed to such a thing. No one was around so I got out of bed and walked out of the infirmary. I wasn't to the most comforting place in the order, which for me was the chapel, and sat alone thinking of everything.
Solara and I were actually sisters instead of the same person. I wondered why she didn't tell me. Then I remembered her words, so you still haven't realized it yet. Now I understood her words. Then there was the Earl who I now actually truly hated with my body and soul. He killed Aaron, even though Aaron lived now, I couldn't forgive him. Even though it was Aaron who struck first, I couldn't forgive the Earl. Finally there was that one fact that scared me the most out of everything. I was a Noah. I loved the order so much, and I loved the people in the order. So why was this happening to me? Why was I both an exorcist and a Noah? Why was I a comrade, but an enemy? Was this how Allen had felt when he found out that he was the 14th? So many thoughts spun through my head that I almost didn't notice Allen coming in to the chapel. Or rather, Aaron in Allen's body.
"So you know everything now," he said. I didn't reply. "Reina, I know that this is a shock to you. Do you want to talk?" Aaron asked. "It's Sephiria," I snapped, then my voice slowly softened. "And yes, I would like to talk." "What about?" Aaron was so kind. So much that if it were put in to a bottomless cup it would overflow. "Everything," I laughed in a soft flat tone. "Okay then, I'm listening."
My feelings poured out of my mouth like running water, a long with my thoughts. "All this time I've thought that I was Solara, but now I find out that I'm only her sister. A part of me still tells me that it isn't true, that it can't be true. I don't know what to believe." He listened to me carefully and didn't comment on anything. He was just the kind of person I needed. "Then I'm a Noah. Why didn't Solara tell me this stuff like this before?" I asked and finally Aaron spoke. "Well most of these memories are painful ones, things of regret, sad memories, death." His voice was flat when he said death. "Well the point is that she didn't want to remember them. She wishes that she didn't remember them, she hopes that maybe you'd feel the same way." "But what am I supposed to do now? I'm a Noah living in the Black Order. I could be punished or even killed of anyone finds out!" I shuddered. "I can assure you that no one know that a 15th Noah has ever even existed. We destroyed all of the bookman paperwork that included you anywhere. That's why there are gaps in the bookman readings." Aaron assured me. "Oh and I saw Solara's old friend Hevlaska in one of the science departments. She sure has gotten big hasn't she?" I laughed and nodded, "she sure has." "Sephiria," Aaron said. "One last thing before I return this body to Allen. Stay away from bookmen." He said those words firmly and I knew he meant it. "They're too perceptive and I don't want you around them." Then Aaron disappeared and left me with an unconscious Allen." Lavi…I thought. He wants me to stay away from Lavi?

"Are you guys crazy! Why's you run off like that! Did you want to get yourselves killed!" Komui scolded Allen and I. "We're sorry already Komui! Could you just let it go?" Allen groaned. "Facing a level 4 demon on your own, I never thought you two were so stupid," Komui ignored Allen and continued. "Komui you're being so loud!" I said. "You guys don't even care that you could've died out there?" Komui looked astonished. "Well we didn't so it's all okay," Allen told him. Komui knew he had failed in making us feel guilty so instead he sighed and walked away.
I knew that Komui was worried about us, and truthfully it made me feel a little guilty, but only a little. Not enough for me never to do it again. After all if I had never done it I would've never found out the truth about everything, and would've never been able to speak to Aaron. I remembered what Aaron had told me. Stay away from bookmen. Did that mean I had to avoid Lavi? Lavi was a bookman jr. or a bookman in training, whatever you call it, but he was also one of my good friends at the order.
Bookman are people that record history. They purposely join wars, or something of the like for the sake of recording. That was Lavi and Bookman's job. I would be able to avoid Bookman easily, but Lavi was definitely a different story. Lavi and I had talked ever since my first day at the order. We had clicked just like that. Even if he suspected me he wouldn't say anything right? I didn't know, but I knew I didn't want to stop talking to him.
Allen and I spotted Lenalee, Lavi, Kanda, and Chaoji together. Lenalee cried out with joy and Allen and I rushed over to them. I ran in to Lenalee's arms and held her tightly. When we finally released each other I looked up and saw Lavi. Next thing I knew I had been pulled in and my face was buried in his chest. "Idiot," he laughed. "You're such a brave little idiot." "Sorry Aaron," I whispered burying my face further in to his shirt.
Lavi's my friend.
Realized that I haven't updated on how Sephiria looks right now. She looks like the girl above without the hat.
