Nero: Ahem, so yeah. I was stuck, so I asked for help from some of you. So I decided...to just make it simple like and write about a weapon I have personal experience with. Thank you to everyone who messaged me!! You know who you are. I noticed my story lacked Kanda so Gabbie will be spending some quality time with him. Heh heh heh!! -evil laugh-
As Gabriel bounded to her room, she was too happy to see what was right in front of her. A wet, casually dressed Kanda. She ran without a care on the world right smack into him.
"Ew, you're all wet and casually dressed!!"
"Oi, Chibi. If you're gonna be useless stay out of my way."
"Hey!! I'm not short, I'm funsize!!" Gabriel protested. "And I won't be useless for much longer!! See, I have Innocence!!" She waved the green stuff at his face.
"Che."
Gabriel skipped around him, only to fail horribly and trip. It was so ridiculous it made Kanda want to hang out with the rabbit. And that took some skill. But Kanda being the gentle samurai he is (I'm serious, he's nice no matter what people thought), couldn't resist staying there and making sure she was all right. By kicking her with his foot. Gently.
"Hey, you alive, Chibi?"
"Not if you're still here. Now, please stop kicking me!!"
"Che, no appreciation at all."
"Argh, I don't have time for you!!"
Gabriel rushed past him and into her room, just missing the scene where Allen chases Lavi down the hall. In her room, Gabriel threw off her pajamas.
"What to wear, what to wear?" she asked herself.
There really wasn't much to choose from. Really, she need to convince Komui into letting her and Lenalee and Olivia go on a shopping spree. She needed more clothing!!
"Well, you reap what you sow," Gabriel sighed.
Gabriel put on a white shirt buttoned all the way up and black knee-long shorts with suspenders. She put on her stockings and tied her shoes. Gabriel was ready to become an exorcist. Or she thought she was. Gabriel examined herself in the mirror and noticed her hair had gotten too long for her liking. She preferred short hair, so she pulled out some scissors to cut her hair.
"On second thought...better let someone else do it." Disaster has been averted. For now. Instead, Gabriel tied her hair in a low ponytail, her bangs long enough to slghtly cover her eyes, but too short to pull back. Happy with how she looked, Gabriel skipped back to Allen's room only to once again smack her face into a dry and casually dressed Kanda.
"Well, at least you're not wet," she murmured.
"Che, took you long enough. The Moyashi is already at Komui's office," Kanda grumbled.
"Okay.....where is that?"
"Are you serious? You don't know the way by now?"
"If I knew the way, I wouldn't be asking you," Gabriel sighed. "Are you really that dense?"
Kanda's eyebrow twitched. "Che, Komui will be pissed if I let you get lost. Just don't fall behind."
"Aw, don't be made. You really do have a heart, despite what people say!!" To prove her point, Gabriel jumped on Kanda's back and wrapped her arms around his neck. Confident that he would just leave her there.
"What the fuck are you doing!?"
"I'm getting a piggy back ride from an awesome samurai?" she asked with puppy eyes.
"No. Off. NOW!!"
"But I don't wanna walk!!"
"Then crawl!!"
Kanda reached around and grabbed Gabriel by the back of her shirt. It was easy to pull her off, seeing as she's so freakishly light. He held her like a kitten face to face with him.
"Hi, there ," she laughed.
"You're an idiot," he growled. He wasn't about to hit a her one third his size, but he wasn't giving out free piggy backs either. Kanda dropped her on the floor and began walking.
"I'm gonna leave you if you don't hurry," he grunted.
"Ack!! Don't leave me!!" Gabriel scrambled after him.

In Komui's office, Olivia and Allen sat on the couch while Komui himself was smiling like an idiot. It wasn't everyday that something like this happened and he deemed it as good since the Order was getting another exorcist. Not that he liked putting them in danger, but one more person to send into battle instead of his Lenalee.
"So Cross kept Innocence with him and gave one to you. Telling you that when he returned, you would give it to someone that needed it?"
"Yes, that just about sums it up. Cross was a talented man. I wouldn't be surprised if he could see the future."
"Mm. Anyways, where is Gabriel?"
"Present!!" she shouted as she rushed in the door.
"Shut up, you're too loud," Kanda growled.
Gabriel soundly ignored Kanda and plopped her self between Olivia and Allen.
"So, how about we see if I can host the Innocence?" Gabriel took the holy matter out of her pocket.
"Alright, well just by looking at it, I can tell it responds with you, but whether or not you can synchronize will have to be left to Hevalaska. Shall we?"
"We shall!! Are Olivia and Allen coming?"
"If they wish. Allen? Olivia?"
"I'll come along," Allen said.
"Same here," Olivia agreed.
"Well, if you don't need anything else, I'm out of here," Kanda snorted and left the office.
"Geez, what's up his ass?" Gabriel sighed.
"The real question is, what isn't?" Allen snickered.
"Aright, children, that's enough," Komui snapped his fingers. "Let go see Hevalaska."
Hevalaska's chamber was beneath the Order's main levels in a subterranean gymnasium. This was were all Innocence it their raw forms were held. Hevalaska was an exorcist, but she fought the war by protecting the weapons and helping the Order's recruits find their partner. As they approached the chamber, Hevalaska was waiting expectantly.
"Greetings, Olivia L'Shein, Allen Walker, Komui Lee, and Gabriel Marian," she said.
Gabriel twitched a little when Hevalaska said Marian, but she ignored the empty feeling and greeted Hevalaska with a smiled and showed her the Innocence in her hand.
"Olivia gave it to me," Gabriel informed.
"I see. May I?"
Not waiting for a response, Hevalaska picked up Gabriel with her ribbons of light. Gabriel was still unuse to the alien feeling, but let the tendrils wrap her in a cucoon of light. A warm feeling enveloped the young exorcist to be, like floating in lukewarm water. Before she knew it, the Innocence in Gabriel's hand began to glow even stronger than before. The glow became a brilliant white and the Innocence began to change shape. Elongating to a point. As the light faded, a long, thin blade was revealed to a wide eyed Gabriel. What was a strange cube had now become a rapier. The blade was a shining silver, the hand guard was an intricate web of gold vines as thin as thread. The grin was wrapped in leather and the butt of the handle was bare. Hevalaska lowered Gabriel gently to the ground.
"Congradulations, Gabriel Marian. You are an exorcist."
Gabriel was speechless. You'd think she would be jumping in joy, but she was still as a statue. Allen walked up behind Gabriel and placed an assuring hand on her shoulder.
"Welcome to the Black Order," he said smiling. He wiped a tear away from Gabriel's face and it was then that she realized she was crying.
"Why am I crying?"
Olivia came from behind and wrapped her arms around Gabriel's shoulder's. "Because someone out there is really proud of you and some where in your heart of hearts, you know who."
Nero: Yes!! Now we can start going on missions, but not before she trains. Who will her teacher be? Stay to find out.
