I've been looking at Neah and Allen fan arts and I noticed that Neah would sometimes look like Sasuke from Naruto XD
"My name is Neah Walker, Pleasure to meet you."
The man- Neah, extended his hand for a handshake in a form of greeting. The exorcists stared at the man, their faces stained with an expression of shock, their bodies frozen. A blanket of silence caused by shock was thrown in the room. No one moved, except for the Inspector who hid a small smirk on his face.
"What? How is that possible? Allen, he was just with us. He-"Lenalee rambled, her face contorted in fear. Her legs shaking as she stares at the Noah in front of her. There's no possible way. Allen couldn't be gone, could he?
Neah sighed and pulled back his hand. He scratched the back of his head as he stood awkwardly, feeling the intense glares of the exorcists. A lot of questions flew through the 3 about the person in front of them. What was he doing here? When did he break Allen? Was it even Allen who came with them on their mission? Was Allen really gone? The stream of questions continued to flew through their heads. Even Kanda looked slightly worried for a second, but he took back his silent demeanour when he realized he let it slip.
"What is the meaning of this Inspector? How come I was not informed of this earlier?" Komui said with a calm voice, but he was everything but calm and relaxed in the inside.
"Central's orders, they were too busy in the alteration of Walker to inform." Lvellie said ignoring a silent glare from the Japanese man in the corner.
"What did you do to Allen?" Lavi asked not moving his glance to the Inspector, staring at the Noah in front of them.
The Inspector smirked, "No worries, Allen Walker is resting safely within his body." He pointed over to Neah. The expression on Neah's face was weird as he looked away, mysterious even. He looked depressed but he still held pride within his face. Now why would he be depressed?
"If I was informed correctly, in order for Neah to be actually talking with us right now Allen is anything but safe." Komui retorted, resisting the urge to choke the man in front of him.
"Central has demanded silence of that part." Lvelli simply replied. He could feel the anger radiating from the other occupants of the room, not only anger but also confusion about the topic.
"Why are you so silent Walker?" The Inspector asked, looking over to Neah with his eyebrow rose.
"Perhaps you do not realize that I am at the receiving point of several glares from them." He said, gesturing politely at the 3 exorcists.
"You're a Noah inside the Black Order's headquarters. Why would we not hate you? Especially since that the Millennium Earl has killed hundreds- no thousands, just to find you. " Lenalee said her voice filled with malice. Komui was slightly shaken when he heard such a tone from his precious little sister.
He sighed, "I know that your reason is something else," He said knowingly, looking over to the exorcists, "You're worried about Allen, correct?"
"Of course we are!" Lenalee exclaimed, her anger slowly boiling inside her.
He sighed once again, "I assure you Miss Lee, my nephew's safety is also in my interests." He said his golden eyes shining as he gave her a look of reassurance. Lenalee didn't believe him though as did the others.
"Sure it is, you Noah." Kanda retorted anger laced in his voice.
Neah sighed, "Just because I'm a Noah doesn't mean that I'm a bad guy. You people are just confused about the topic and automatically assume that I'm the enemy. There's a reason why I betrayed the Millennium Earl and I will not have people think I wish my nephew's well being pain." The exorcist's stared at the Noah. Something was in his voice, was it foolish to think it was sadness?
"Now now, don't get your knickers in a knot, exorcists. Walker over here," He gestured to Neah, "Is a very great asset to us in this war and I do hope you will accept him into your ranks and acknowledge him as an ally or else you will be subjected to treason.." The Inspector said, his lips pulling into another smirk.
'This is just ridiculous.' Lavi thought to himself. Since when did the Central put so much trust into him, A Noah whose intentions were hidden from everyone's view? Someone who could easily kill them in their sleep, it was infuriating just to think about it. Trust, what Allen had tried to work hard for all this time, Neah got it in an instant. He thought about it till he reached a conclusion, he needed to ask the old man for this one.
The occupants of the room remained quiet for awhile. Letting the new information sink in them while ignoring the Inspector's sick smile.
"Well, I think that concludes this little meeting." The Inspector then stood up from the couch and turned towards Link.
"I expect a report every month, Inspector Link."
"Yes sir." The blonde nodded obediently.
"Oh, Walker, you may let Allen Walker back in control now." The Inspector said before leaving the room. Neah nodded slowly, taking one last look at the angry faces of the exorcists before letting sinking back into Allen's mind. He lowered his head and closed his eyes as let his body relaxed as he let Allen resurface again. The black colour of his hair started to turn back into Allen's pure white locks and Allen's pale white skin had replaced the previously gray complexion. He opened his eyes gently, revealing his gentle silver orbs. His vision was blurred but the first thing he saw when he adjusted to the light was Komui, who had a worried look on his face.
"Allen. . ." The Branch Head said, his face etched with concern for the boy.
Allen turned to look away from Komui, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you earlier Komui." He clenched his fist as he felt anger build in him, apparently not noticing the 3 exorcists in the corner.
"I-I understand, you must be tired, why don't you take a rest. You can explain to me tomorrow." Komui stuttered, smiling softly at the boy.
"Alright, I'll-"Allen froze as he looked up and saw Lavi, Lenalee and Kanda. A thought flew through his head. 'Had they seen him?' He was hoping he could keep Neah as a secret from them but seeing as they were here right now, their faces etched in worry and concern. Well, except for Kanda, but his glare was gentler and softer compared to the usual, panic shook Allen as his thoughts processed. He saw Lenalee fidget slightly.
"A-Allen, we-"
"I'll be going now." Allen said as he cut Lenalee off and walked outside of the room, Link following him as he did. Lenalee looked down; thinking if she made a wrong move or something.
Another blanket of silence enwrapped the people inside the office. Mostly because of how tense the Exorcists' were, even though Kanda didn't show it. Their minds were blank at the moment. The look on Allen's face when he saw them, it looked like he was horrified, But why? Why would he be scared? Weren't they supposed to watch each other's backs? Weren't they supposed to be friends?
Komui coughed a bit, gaining the attention of the exorcists, "I'd prefer if you guys will keep this from everyone else for now. I don't think they're ready yet to hear the news."
"Why? Why didn't he tell us?" Lenalee said sadly, her head lowered casting a small shadow on her face.
They remained silent again till Kanda unexpectedly broke it, "Tch. The Moyashi is just being an idiot, it'll pass." He bluntly said.
Lavi laughed lightly, "Guess he's being idiotically selfless again, huh?" He patted Lenalee's back. "Don't worry Lenalee; I'm sure he'll be fine. We just need to watch his back. Besides, Yuu-chan's right and the old Beansprout will be back to normal." He chirped earning a glare from Kanda and a blade to the tip of his chin.
"What did I tell you about calling me about my first name?" Kanda exclaimed.
"Geez Yuu-chan, I really can't remember!~"
"You want to die Baka Usag?"
"That's enough guys!" Lenalee exclaimed, hitting them with a clipboard that seemingly came from nowhere. The Branch head couldn't help but smile a little at the sight in front of him.
Allen leaned back as he felt his head hit lightly the wall behind him. He was currently in his room, sitting on the floor in the corner of the room with his knees pulled up to his chest as he hugged them, his face remaining untranslatable. His shoulders shaking lightly as Neah tried to soothe him but utterly failed.
'Allen, You really shouldn't think about it.'
'Shut up, this is your entire fault.' Allen retorted silently in his head.
'They would have found out about it sooner or later Allen. Isn't it good that they found out earlier to prevent even more misunderstandings?' Neah replied, ignoring the venom in the white haired lad's thoughts as they 'talked' to each other.
'Why do you even care? You're just a blasted Noah who I'm sure will never understand me.' Really, why would he care? He was pretty sure the only thing in the Noah's head was the different ways to get rid of him so he could have full access to his body. He was always like this. He never seemed to be any type of potential threat to Allen in any way. Whenever he 'talked' with him, his voice was always gentle and filled with understanding, unlike what he imagined it to be. But despite this, he knew he couldn't comfortable around him.
Neah made his life in the Central a living hell, but he couldn't blame him. But at the same time, he knew he shouldn't be this close to him, a Noah. His thoughts about him were all jumbled up and mixed. He really didn't know what to think of Neah.
'I have my reasons Allen.'
'That's what you always say. . .' Allen buried his face to his knees as he tried to ignore the pain he felt in his heart. They saw him like that. The shock in them was evident. He wished they didn't have to know about him. What did they think about him now? Was he a monster to them? Was he now considered as a traitor by them? Or worse, did they no longer think of him as a friend? Allen held back his tears as sadness came over him.
"Allen, don't think like that."
'Just . . . Let me be Neah.' Allen felt like his energy was drained. He was confused, angry and tired. Neah gave a silent nod before letting his nephew rest.
Allen groaned, a bunch of conflicted thoughts swirled through his head. Was it really worth it? Everything he had faced either gave him pain or sadness. His heart ached, he felt lost. Just when he was about to succumb to the darkness, a small memory passed through his mind.
"Keep walking."
He remembered Mana's words. The only thing keeping him moving forward seemed to be his only beacon of light in the darkness shrouding him. He felt so desperate and useless right now, but he knew he couldn't break, not anymore.
Allen looked over to his right hand, a small scar at the back of his palm. He rubbed it gently with his left hand; it was something he got from his time at the Central. He shivered slightly, recollecting the feeling he had when he got it.
"Someone, Hold him down!"
A man clad in white exclaimed, his left hand holding an injection as a white haired boy struggled on the table in front of him. 4 people were already holding down his arms and legs, but he still managed to kick around. His face contorted in fear and pain as a bunch of people in white came into the room, pushing a cart that had every different kind of knives and injections on it.
What were they planning? More importantly, what was going on? The moment he set foot in the Central, he was suddenly covered in seals and was dragged into this place. He did nothing wrong. Did it have to do something with the Noah inside him? Of course, that's what they wanted. Allen couldn't do anything but bite his lip as he watches the events unfold.
"No! No! Let me go!" Allen screamed, thrashing around violently.
"Will you just stay still?" The man exclaimed angrily, trying to get ahold of Allen's hand as he held the injection in his hand. Allen kicked the man who was holding his arm and swatted the injection out of the man's hand. The back of his palm earning a small cut as the needle pierced his skin when he slapped the injection from the man's hand.
He hissed angrily at his bruised hand and went to the cart to get another injection. Allen felt a tinge of pain at his hand as he saw it bleed profusely. Behind Allen's tough front was a scared expression that he never let anyone see. His heart raced as he felt panic rise through his systems which only rose faster as he heard a familiar voice that belonged to a certain Inspector.
"Inspector Link, Seal him." Lvellie ordered, the blonde man at his side nodded in response before walking up to Allen to cover up his body his seals.
Allen couldn't help but look at Link with a face that begged him not to. The Inspector looked away, his silent demeanour slightly breaking when he saw the look on Allen's face. He bit his lip as he felt his seals wrap him up, constricting his movements. His face slightly broke as he was about to leave and return to Lvellie's side when he saw Allen's expression, it was a mix of hurt, betrayal and sadness. It made the stoic Howard Link crumbled a bit inside but orders were orders. He looked at him one last time before exiting the room with Lvellie.
"Good, we can finally get started." The man in the white lab coat said smirking at Allen. He ignored the bleeding on Allen's right hand and injected something into Allen. Allen felt pain strike through his body. He gave out a silent scream as he writhes in pain. It felt like his body was on fire, his nerves twitching.
Black dots danced around his vision as he felt his consciousness slipping away.
"Gonna faint? Can't have you do that Noah." He said, injecting another needle into Allen as another wave of pain coursed his body. Any chance of him going consciousness went away as the pain swirled around his body.
Small tears fell from Allen's eyes as he tried to ignore the painful feeling coursing through his body. He opened his mouth, uttering a small cry of help as his voice cracked.
"Someone . . . H-help me. . ."
A loud knock on his door snapped him out of his thoughts. He blinked a few times as he stared at the scar on his hand. Another round of knocks hit his poor door and it made the young man finally stand up and approach it. It was Link.
"Walker, will you please stop wandering around by yourself?" Link reprimanded him, his face twitching in annoyance as the white haired lad laughed slightly.
"Sorry 'bout that Link." Allen apologized, scratching the back of his head as he laughed lightly.
Link noticed a slight change in Allen's expression; it had a small hint of sadness in it. "Walker, are you okay?" Link asked, scanning the boy in front of him for anything wrong.
"Hmm? Oh, it's nothing Link." Allen reassured as he shook his head. The man stared at him again, "I'm fine Link, geez you worry too much!" he jokingly said.
The blonde man looked at him one last time before sighing again.
But he knew that he was lying.
He was anything but fine.
