Kanda appeared from the shadows looking at her wide eyed as she placed the six pieces of innocence in a special bag slinging it carelessly over her shoulder and fastening the clips making sure no one could snatch it if any attempt was made. The bag was a bag made with magic, the same magic that she had used to create her golem. Its sole purpose was to hide the innocence and any kind of magic or whatever that radiated off them, in turn no Akuma would be able to track them and neither would the Noah.

"What exactly did he want here?" he growled at her.

"He wanted the same as everyone else did he wanted the innocence I so innocently robbed the Order of when I interfered with your missions. It is not like I had planned it Yuu-kun, honestly but your Order made me sound like I was siding with the Earl. I must admit it was a nasty assumption to make." She purred pissing off the exorcist as he glared daggers at her.

"Don't be stupid woman we considered you trouble just like your father was. However the Order wanted you because of how easily you managed to take the innocence from under our noses. You collected it effortlessly and sine your father was a member his room and everything in there is yours and so is his wealth, he never touched it as Allen was always left to pay his debt he made. Everything that was his is now yours."

Her eyes narrowed as she looked at Kanda skeptically. "So why now?" she said softly as she lifted her gaze to meet Kanda's.

"That even I am not sure of but your father wanted you to get taken care of." He spoke turning to get ready to leave.

"Yuu stop." It was a mere whisper as he turned to look down at her.

"What do you want women?" he growled.

"Let's stay here until the rain holds up, I won't be any more trouble but I need to know how I can learn more about my father. Didn't you know him?" she was pleading, something she never did.

A sigh escaped the young man's lips as he turned to face her. "I suggest you peak with your fathers apprentice and the bookman. Allen and Lavi." He locked the door watching as she started a fire and went to collect blankets.

"Allen was my father's apprentice?" she was genuinely shocked at the discovery.

"Yes he was, personally I would never have put up with all that mans problems so gracefully like the bean sprout did, but all that said your father was a good trainer for Allen, took him in because of that arm of his." He stared out the window noticing a break in the rain.

"We better get going." Sera said reading the exorcists mind.

While making their way back Mother Nature decided she would be cruel and greeted them with a down pour from hell which had successfully blurred their vision partially as the Orders buildings loomed ahead of them.

Kanda took Sera to her room where Lavi had been waiting eagerly to start his duty for the night. Handing the bag to Kanda she nodded silently and knew he would take the bag t where it was meant to go. The young exorcist looked at the girl with the raven hair as she walked in ignoring him. She knew a bookman from a mile away, so why was the bookman an exorcist.

A green eye followed her figure as she walked around her father's room until she stopped and glared at him challengingly. "Do you honestly mind?" she grumbled.

Lavi grinned. "Well I was told not to take my eyes off you and that's pretty easy so I'm following my instructions right town to the tee."

She scoffed. "Well then watch this." She was getting annoyed so she slowly started lifting her top watching as the man in front of hers face matched his hair. He spun around on his seat turning his back to her in an instant.

She chuckled darkly as she threw off her wet uniform and pulled on one of her father's shirts slipping into the strange bed that he once slept in.

"It's safe to look now idiot." She purred as she sat watching the red head as he hesitantly turned to face her.

"You're as bad as Kanda you know that." He looked down blushing still but he couldn't help it much, the white shirt just made his weak willed imagination run wild.

"Don't compare me to the pretty boy, it's insulting, I believe you were once a bookman. You knew my father didn't you?" she asked to the point.

"I did know your father but out of all of us Allen knows him about the best alongside the other Generals, he would be the easiest to talk to, he went through hell with your father. We were always helping him find the places your father left him to pay up his debts, as for the Order, I only really saw him when I was sent to try and collect him. He would disappear for years on end and then we'd just hear that his back in town. He didn't like been under the watchful eye General Winters." She looked up at the bookman and sighed.

"I only met him before he disappeared again. It was by chance in a bar. He tried to hit on me but when he saw my eyes the man froze up. What he saw reflected his own eyes and well this too." She moved her hair to show a single strand of blood red hair.

"What happened?" Lavi was curious as to how she had managed to get a single red lock of hair.

"My mother, she didn't want Cross to know that she had carried his child. I used to have my father's signature red locks as a young child but my mother didn't want to be reminded of her one night of infidelity that cost her everything she had worked so hard for, including the trust of her husband so she took me to the Earl and had him use magic on me to change the color of my hair permanently, but this was the only strand that remained. My mother blamed me for all her wrongful doings and when I was thirteen she cut these words into my arms." She ran her fingertips over the scars slowly as her gaze dropped to her arms. "When Cross figured I was actually his child he doted on me but didn't want unnecessary people knowing about me because I too had innocence but he never helped me understand it." She sighed softly looking out the window at the pouring rain.

"I have reason to believe you were a rather feared bounty hunter." Lavi knew a change of topic was much needed by looking at how her expression had changed.

"Yeah I kind of was a rather well known one, not something I'm really proud of, and I killed many innocent people in my short time I have been around. I used my innocence for wrong. Tyikk explained to me what it was mainly used for in his human form, he never told me he was a Noah when I was younger, and he told me when I was sixteen. Figures though, feelings drive people to do stupid things." She said in a low voice.

"Tyikk had feelings for you?" Lavi seemed astonished by what she was telling him.

"He still does but I pretend to be oblivious about it, I knew all about the Noah from my father so I made sure not to get sucked in or involved with them, the side of his that I know isn't bad even when his a Noah. But I guess it wasn't well more like isn't what I'm looking for." She glanced over at Lavi who looked at her slightly confused before he gently smiled down at the small woman.

"It must be tough for you to look at him knowing how he is, each time we did see you on our missions you came across as such a bad ass." He grinned sheepishly.

"Huh? oh please patchy I am a bad ass, I had to be that way I was confused, I'd never have harmed you idiots I knew well and well, well enough from my father that you ballerina's were the good guys." She chuckled looking at the bookman.

Lavi shook his head as he remembered the first time he crossed paths with Crosses daughter and how she had instantly rejected him and vanished like she was never even there. He smirked as he watched her curl up under the covers quietly, staring out the window. She was truly her father's daughter.
