Me: I know it's kind of short, but bear with me. I have a lot of schoolwork to do and so little time to get it done.

Friend: You have plenty of time, you're just wasting it.

Me: Shut . . . up . . .

~Angelus~

The nurse's check up was painfully long. She wouldn't let me out of bed, much less the room. When I tried to explain to her that I had to find me son, she told me that I would be useless to him in the state I was in. I knew she meant well but those last words hurt.

I was lying back on my hospital bed that was raised high enough for me to eat right. There was a plate of some food in front of me, but I found that I didn't have an appetite. I watched as steam rose up from the soup in a mesmerizing way. I went over the new information that I had acquired in my head. The nurse had told me that I was in the Black Order. I wasn't surprised that they were the ones to find me; in fact I think I was expecting it.

I sighed and turned my head towards the door. I really hated being alone with my thoughts. After everything that happened I really just wanted to find my family. It felt like hours before the door opened. A man with should-length black hair and a white jacket on stormed into the room. I watched as he pushed his glasses up to his face, making them glint slightly. "Well, I'm glad to see that you're awake," he said before taking a chair and sitting next to me. "We found you encased in ice," I blinked, ice? "We have reason to believe that you were there for several years, although that may not be true. Could you tell me what happened before you ended up there?"

I took the spoon of the soup in my hand and started stirring it. What should I begin? Should I tell him what I was? I tried to think of a way I could explain things to him without having to give away too much information. "I can't remember," I said, it was the first lie I had ever told in my three hundred years of life. I could remember everything as if it only happened a few hours ago.

He sighed before shaking his head and fixing his hat. "Well, I guess that there's not much I can do," He stretched back and came forward again; "Do you at least remember your name?" I paused. My name would be safe and I really didn't want to lie again.

I nodded, "Its Angelus," I lifted a spoonful of soup to my lips to taste it. It was really good. "Angelus Anderson," That wasn't a lie either. The second I was married to William I had become an Anderson. I placed my spoon back in the bowl with the half-eaten soup. I yawned and leaned back into my pillow. "What's your name?" I asked on a whim.

The man looked up from whatever he was doing before deciding to answer me, "Komui Lee, head of the science department." I blinked at the name. I had heard that name before. It was the name of the little boy who was . . .

"Ah!" I yelled out as I suddenly sat up from bed, "Komui?" I asked again, looking him over once more. As I did this I realized how much he really looked like his father. I placed a hand over my mouth; Komui had been young enough to see me when Lenalee was born. I had watched over his mother for two whole years and had, had conversations with him before. I really didn't expect him to remember but it was a real shock to see him this old.

I shut my mouth and shook my head. He probably didn't remember me. "Never mind," I said before I finally started to eat the rest of my soup.

Komui raised an eyebrow at me but ignored my outburst. He looked over his papers before glancing at me again. When I finished I reached down to rub my stomach reflexively. I sighed at the loss of weight and roundness. It felt so strange not to have my child still growing within me. There was a silence as Komui's eyes followed my hand on my stomach. "I'm tired," I said, indicating that I wanted to be alone. I was probably really rude about it but I really needed to be alone at the moment.

Komui didn't say anything. Instead he simply got up and walked to the door, opening it for him to go through. He glanced back at me before exiting, "Good night, Angelus." I smiled as he shut the door behind him to let me sleep.

~Lavi~

I was staring at a book, not really reading it. It was just something to help pass the time as I pondered over our new guest. Komui had said that her name was Angelus which was ironic, considering what I saw just a few hours ago.

When I was waiting for the nurse to be finished so I could ask the girl questions, something happened. The second she turned around to address the nurse her back suddenly had an outline of wings. I had to blink twice and rub my eye before I finally realize that it was real. The nurse didn't seem to notice them but I did. It was at that point that I had to leave as soon as possible.

When I told Komui of the incident he seemed shocked as well. After some discussions we concluded that she wasn't an angel, but those wings were in fact her Innocence. It seemed logical, but I was skeptical of it. The Old Panda was out on a mission so it wasn't like I could ask him. She seemed so damn familiar!

I leaned back in my chair and scowled. Usually my memory was impeccable but when I couldn't remember something it drove me on the edge of insanity. I had been looking through every book I could find to see if I could get a clue, but nothing came up.

I growled and got up from my chair. I was going to get my answers, one way or another. "Lavi," I turned around at the voice to see Komui standing at the doorway. This confused me. The Supervisor always stayed away from the library. "I need to talk to you," he finished walking to the other side of the table and taking a seat. I slowly went back into my own seat and waited for him to say what he wanted to say.

"What's up?" I asked, taking in every detail of his body language.

He sighed, "I told you her name, but what I didn't tell you was the fact that she seemed like she knew me," I froze; so Komui felt it too. "She had such a reaction to hearing my name that I can't help but wonder if she knew me a long time ago."

I leaned back in my chair. If she was stuck in the iceberg for fifteen years then it was possible. I let my thoughts wander as I thought back to where I was fifteen years ago. A nice golden field . . . .

I caught my breath and my eyes widened. Oh . . . my . . . God . . . . I bolted up and ran to a shelf, looking for a book, or more specifically, a journal. Ripping it open, I found the page that I was looking for. "Lavi?" asked Komui as he stared at my reaction.

I held up a finger and read out loud, "June 3rd, the wheat is growing finely, just as we told the villagers to grow it. My apprentice thought it would be a good idea to play in it, to which I didn't object. Some fresh air away from books could do him good. However, the strangest thing happened as we were walking through the fields. We found a girl, uninjured but exhausted by the look of it. She wore men's clothing and had long white hair. She was sleeping in the fields when we found her, holding something tightly to her chest. After waking her up, I could see that the thing she was holding was Innocence, but it disappeared into her body before I could confirm my suspicions. The young Bookman Jr. did not think her as strange as I did and continued to try and talk with her. He had made her smile, and with that she took his toy hammer and transformed it into something deadly; an anti-Akuma weapon. It was one of the strangest things I have ever seen, but what was even stranger was the outline of wings on her back before we left her there. When we went back the next day, there was no trace of her. Nothing except the footprints she left when she first met us. Other than that, there were no footprints leading out of the field or into them."

I snapped the Old Panda's journal shut before looking at Komui who had a worried look on his face, "I've met her before . . ." I said finally. She was the white-haired woman who had given me my Innocence.

~Allen~

"Why do I have to go again?" I asked, only getting a pout from my friend and a pull on my arm.

"Because from what you have told me; you haven't met anyone else with white hair, right?" I nodded dumbly as she pulled me through the hallways. I groaned in my mind as I realized that she wouldn't let go. "Well, I'm going to ensure that you meet her. I'm sure that brother won't object to me going to visit her and if you're with me then too bad." I really didn't understand why I had to meet her now. It wasn't like we wouldn't see her in the cafeteria later or go on a mission with her.

Before I could say anything we were standing in front of her door. There was a knot in the pit of my stomach as I looked at it. I didn't know why but I was horribly nervous. Lenalee looked at me and began explaining things. "From what I've heard, she was in the ice for fifteen years." I swallowed. Fifteen years? I couldn't imagine being stuck in ice for fifteen years.

Lenalee opened the door slightly before calling out, "Hello?" There was some shuffling on the other side that sounded like sheets or blankets before Lenalee opened the door all the way so I could see.

The girl was lying there on her hospital bed, wide awake. Her gray-blue eyes scanned us both before she smiled "Can I help you?"

Me: Oh, BTW I wrote a one-shot for 'Before Time Was Destroyed'. When I reread it, I found that cutting out the sex-scene left me slightly disappointed. But I wanted to keep it at a 'T' rated level so I decided to write a separate one-shot of the lemon.

Friend: You're just a pervert . . .

Me: Am not!

Friend: Are too!

Me: Am not!

Friend: Are too!

Me: Am not, times infinity~!

Friend: . . . .

Me: Anyway, those of you who are mature enough to handle it, then please go read it. You might actually like it.
