Sorry for the delayed update. School just ended, so I didn't have much time. Anyways, here's the new update!

Chapter 81-End of the Black Order- Different

Allen:

We entered the Arc in silence. Even though we had finished the war, we had lost some of our family as well. Not even Master Cross spoke. I carried Bookman's limp body and set him down on the Arc's floor. Kanda placed Chou Ji's body next to the old man's.

After we had all said final words to them, Lavi slumped against the wall and started to sob. I sat next to him. I knew that he wasn't all right, so I didn't even ask.

"It really sucks," he said at last. "The old panda and I had planned on getting out of this war together. We planned on moving on, creating new lives, and recording history, then disappearing and doing the same thing over again. I'd never really liked that life, but I stuck with it because it was my job. Now that I think about it, I don't even know if I'm ready to become Bookman."

"You are ready," I said. "You're just as smart as Bookman was. Don't worry, Lavi, you'll know when you're ready."

"'We Bookman don't choose sides'," Lavi said. "That's what the old man told me. 'It was by chance that we came to work with the Order'. I always thought that was true. I thought that the Order had asked for our help, so Gramps decided to help. I guess I was wrong."

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"While I was being held hostage, the Noahs told me that he had worked close to the Fourteenth," Lavi explained. "When Gramps didn't deny it, I knew it was true. I didn't want to believe it. His old apprentice had been killed when the Fourteenth went on his rampage. That told me that he didn't want to work with them. He wanted both of us to be safe. That's why he chose to work with the Order."

"He cared even if he didn't show it," I said.

Lavi and I sat in silence as we watched our fellow comrades talking in hushed voices. Lenalee began to cry, and Daisya held her tight. Arisa, Alma, and Kanda had all sat down away from the bodies. No one talked. Mana, Master Cross, and the other generals stood in a circle talking. Krory, Miranda, Link, Johnny and Marie were all wondering around moping, Road was sitting next to the bodies crying, and Timothy had curled up in a corner and cried himself to sleep.

"When we were younger, Daisya, Lenalee and I all talked about what would happen when the war ended," Lavi said. "We all thought that we would be jumping for joy and partying. Having people die wasn't even in our mind set."

"I wish that were the case," I said. "I wish that we were able to celebrate."

"Maybe one day we will be," he said. He closed his eyes and fell asleep.

I stood up and walked into the piano room. I stared at the keys on the instrument. I was about to start playing the song that allowed me to control the Arc, but something stopped me. I didn't remember how to play it. I guessed that it was because of Nea why I was able to play it before.

"You need some help?" Mana asked.

I spun around to see him standing in the doorway. He was smiling, but I could see that he was upset. His eyes didn't gleam the way they used to. I guessed that losing your brother twice was a big impact on the mood.

"Sure," I said. I moved to the side as he walked over to the piano. "Do you know how to play the song?"

"I helped create it," Mana said. "My brother learned how to put magic into the piano, and I created the song. We were a team back then." He placed his fingers on the keys, but he didn't play.

"Are you all right?" I asked.

He nodded. "I'm just trying to remember it." After another moment, he started to play the song. The melody echoed throughout the room. The memories from the time when Lenalee, Kanda, Lavi, Krory and I were in here flashed through my mind. Usually the memories made me angry. However, this time, I smiled at them. We had all risked our lives to save each other. It was the first time where I felt like we were a team. It was almost as if we had fought together for years.

Mana stopped playing and looked at me. "We're back."

Kanda:

The moment I exited the Arc, I stopped. There were CROW members surrounding the place with their weapons at the ready.

"Why'd you stop?" Link asked as he entered the place. He stopped next to me. "Oh…"

"Stand down," Komui said. The CROWS put their weapons away and parted to let him and Rever through.

"BROTHER!" Lenalee squealed in my ear. I glared at her as she ran passed me and tackled her brother. "I'm so glad you're okay!"
"Where were all of you?" Rever asked.

"Fighting the Noahs and akuma," Cross said. "Call an all staff meeting. We have something important to say." He walked away.

Komui nodded to one of the CROWs. "You heard him. Call a meeting!"

"Come on," I heard Allen behind me.

"No," Road said. "I'll be attacked.

"You'll be fine," I said, not looking back. I walked over to Komui. "Road Camelot helped us in the war. She betrayed the Noahs and helped fight them."

"She did?" Komui asked.

"Yeah," Lenalee said. She was still hugging her brother.

We watched as Allen dragged the little girl out of the Arc. "You're going to be fine!"
"NO!" Road screamed.

Allen rolled his eyes. "I can't believe I'm doing this," he muttered. He pulled her into a kiss. Road's eyes flew open and she calmed down.

The vibe coming from Lenalee turned dark. She let her brother go and turned around to face Daisya. He smiled and tried to slink away. "You are in a lot of trouble," she said.

"Why?" he asked.

She stomped over to him and hit him on the head. "Why did you let Cassandra kiss you?"

"That was not my fault!" Daisya exclaimed.

"How?" she asked.

"Cassandra kissed me while my guard was down!" he exclaimed. "Please don't be mad."

"How can I not be mad?" Lenalee asked. "You let her kiss you!"
"I'm very confused as to what's going on," Komui said.

In mid yell, Daisya grabbed Lenalee and kissed her. "At lease she's not the one I'm marrying."

I tensed and felt Komui tense next to me. "What?" we both asked.

"I guess we can't hide it any more," Daisya said. He blushed. "Lenalee and I are engaged."

Komui started to shake. "WHAT?"
"Brother, please don't get mad!" Lenalee exclaimed. She ran over to him. I grabbed her arm and held her next to me. "What are you doing?" she asked.

The ground started to shake and a herd of robots came speeding through. Daisya's eyes widened. "Shit!" he yelled. He ran off.

"GET HIM!" Komui yelled. "Get the man who thinks he can win my sister's heart!" The robots began to chase Daisya.

"Kanda, let me go!" Lenalee yelled.

"For once, I'm actually glad for the robots," I told her.

She glared at me. "Traitor."

Daisya:
I screamed as I ran away from the robots. How much spare time did Komui have? Obviously, a lot if he was able to make twelve robots specifically to chase the person Lenalee fell in love with. Kanda wasn't helping by holding her back either.

I ran passed Cross and Klaud who stared at me with wide eyes. When I saw Timothy and Alma, I screamed, "HELP ME!"
They both yelped and jumped out of the way as I passed. "What's going on?" Timothy asked.

I rounded as corner, and three of the robots smashed into the wall. I was glad that the Order had moved into a place with square walls instead of circular. If I was able to get all of the robots to smash into walls, I should be good. I just hoped that the gods would be on my side.

Arisa:

I jumped up and down in a circle around Lenalee and Kanda. "Is it true? Is it true?"

Lenalee sighed. "Yes, it's true."

Komui pulled her away from Kanda and hugged her. "She's my little Lenalee!"

"I'm not little anymore!" Lenalee yelled. "I can decide who I'm in love with!" She wriggled out of her brother's arms. "I'm in love with Daisya."

Komui sagged. "Why?"

"He's my best friend," Lenalee said. "I don't know why, but I fell in love with him. I want to marry him, Komui."

I tackled her with a hug. "I knew it! I knew it; I knew it, I KNEW IT! I knew you were in love!"

"I think everyone knew except for Komui," Kanda said. "It was pretty obvious."

Lenalee blushed. "I'm going to go help Daisya." She tried to walk off, but Komui grabbed her leg.

"No!" he snapped. "I will not allow this! NEVER!"
Lenalee kicked him. "You're going to have to get over it, Brother! I don't care what you say. I'm growing up, and I'm going to get married."

"Let's leave them alone," Kanda said quietly. He grabbed my hand and pulled me away.

I hopped up and down. "I've been planning their wedding for years! I wonder what they want to do for it. Of course the season matters. If they decide to do it in the winter, then we can't really have it outside. If they do it any other time, we can. I wonder if they want it to be a moonlight wedding. That would be so beautiful! Johnny would most definitely help make the dress, and Rever could create some really cool special affects. Oh, this is going to be-"

Kanda interrupted me by kissing me. After a moment, he looked at me. "Why don't you let Lenalee and Daisya decide their wedding and help me plan ours."

My face grew warm. "What?"

He kissed my head. "You heard me."

"You want to…" I squealed and hugged him. "YES!"
"That was a high-pitched squeal!" Allen exclaimed from the other end of the hallway. He and Alma both had their hands over their ears. "It hurt my ears all the way over here!"

My blush deepened. "Sorry."

"Move out of the way!" Daisya yelled as he ran passed us, followed by three robots.

I tried to activate my innocence to help him, but it didn't' work. "What the heck? Why won't my innocence work?"

"I think the innocence was stored in the Heart after the battle," Mana said as he and General Tiedol walked over to us.

"Arisa, why did you squeal?" Marie asked as he, Miranda, Allen and Alma walked over to us. "That was ridiculously loud!"

I looked at Kanda who shrugged. I was about to tell them, when I made eye contact with Alma. From the sad look on his face, I figured that he knew. However, he smiled and nodded, telling me that it was alright.

I took a deep breath and said, "We're engaged."

Lenalee:

I sat on the roof of the Order. The sun was just beginning to set, and there was a slight breeze in the air. I couldn't help but smile. It was so peaceful out here. There was no one else around, so it was also really quiet. I thought about how everything that I'd grown up with was now over. Soon, my entire family would be spread around the world, falling in love and rejoining their families after so many years.

The thought that my family would soon be gone made my heart sink. I could feel tears form in my eyes, but I wiped them away. This is what I always wanted wasn't it? I wanted everyone to be happy and to live in peace. That's why I fought for so long. That's what kept me fighting.

"You seem upset," Daisya said as he came up to sit next to me.

I put my head on his shoulder. "I'm just nervous about everything changing," I said.

He put an arm around me and kissed my head. "Don't worry, we're all going to stay in touch. Besides, the bonds that all of us exorcists are too great. We'll be able to see them. Plus, I'm sure that they're all going to come to our wedding, and we'll see them at Kanda and Arisa's wedding as well."

I looked up at him. "What? Kanda and Arisa are getting married?"

He nodded. "He just proposed a bit ago. I'm surprised that you didn't know."

"I've been up her for the last while," I said. I put my head back on his shoulder. "Are you all right?"

"Of course," he said. "Why wouldn't I be?"

"You just got chased by robots," I said.

He laughed. "I'm fine."

Suddenly, our golems began to beep. "This is an announcement to all units," Komui said. "As of today, the war against the Millennium Earl and the akuma is over. However, we have lost people these last few hours. Exorcists Bookman and Chou Ji and Inspector Liverrier have passed one. Their bodies will burn in the grand hall in an hour. If you want to say farewell, then do so now. That is all."

"Leverrier's dead?" I asked.

Daisya shrugged. "I guess that what you saw in that magical pool really was the real him."

"So I killed him…" I muttered.

He hugged me. "Don't go blaming yourself. You did what you have to do. Besides, we both thought that he was fake."

I didn't say anything to him. Instead, I just let him hold me. Suddenly, I began to cry. Daisya whispered comforting words in my ear, telling me to calm down. "It's over," he whispered. "We don't need to fight anymore."

That fact finally set in. The war was finally over. No one would have to die anymore because of this war.
