Sequel Alert: This is a sequel to "What Lies Hidden". Please read that first!

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Katsura Hoshino owns it… I just enjoy twisting her ideas for my own warped amusement…

Side note! Katsura Hoshino! Why the hell didn't you stick with your first character concept and have Allen be a girl! There is so much to mess with if Allen's a girl! A big benefit would be that Tyki x Allen could be cannon!

….

Warning: … D. Gray - Man is in its self bloody. This will have violence and dark themes, like attempted rape (but no actual! Just someone being a jack ass, and no, its not Tyki)…. Some real smut too in later chapters… I think that covers everything…

Timeline: Chapter 188; Sacred War Blood, and Chapter 189; Yuda's Voice

- Neah speaking to Ellen or Crown Clown will look like this, and anything that is happening in Ellen's mind will be separated from everything else.

- Anything that are Memories will be like this. And if it's a major memory then it will also be separation from everything else.

If you have any suggestions that might help to make things clearer, please let me know…

"M-Mana?"

Silence.

The American Branch of the Black Order had been taken by the Noah Clan. At least seven Level Four Akuma filled the large room that Ellen Walker had been forced to enter by Ark gate only moments ago. There were seven high Level enemies present and scattered through out the room, and that wasn't even including the four members of the

Clan of Noah that were also present at the moment…

The Noah Clan's hostages lined the far wall, most of them looking confused, betrayed and others looking down right hateful.

The man standing at the very center of it all was looking completely unconcerned with anything happening around him. His gray eyes still holding that horrible regret, but also an insane amusement over the looks he was now receiving after that one name had past Ellen's trembling pink lips…

All humans present knew the name of the man that Ellen Walker had turned into an Akuma almost four years prior.

The man turned all the way to face her and Tyki Mikk. His head tilting just a small faction to the left, one gloved hand rising to hold his black top hat in place.

Those dark gray eyes narrowed and then blinked slowly, studying the young Exorcist standing only a step behind Tyki. A questioning looking twisting those hauntingly familiar features that Ellen remembered oh so well…

"Tyki-pon~" The man sang out, his mouth twisting into a curious smile, those gray eyes turning to look at the bastard that was still holding Ellen by her wrist. Mikk's golden eyes turning from her wide silver to look at the man standing before them.

This man was an imposter that was wearing Mana's skin, because that man couldn't be Ellen's beloved foster father. No, Mana Walker was dead; there was no way that this man could be him…

"Earl?" Mikk asked smoothly, the young Exorcist could hear the confusion in the Noah of Pleasure's voice; she could see it in the man's poster. The word that he had spoken taking a long moment to reach her ears, once it did Ellen's heart twisted sharply in her chest.

The Earl? As in the Millennium Earl?

The young white haired woman's eyes widening even more now, Ellen's eyes turning from where they had strayed, back to this man that looked so much like Mana that…

The Millennium Earl continued to hold Mikk's eyes, his smile corking up just a little more at the corners. The Maker's other hand rose, his index finger pointing at Ellen and the young woman felt a frown twisting her pink lips down. "Is that a hicky there on Ellen's neck?"

Ellen gasped in mortified horror before she could stop herself. The young Exorcist could feel her cheeks burning and Ellen knew that she was blushing rather darkly, her free hand shot up quickly to cover the side of her neck that the Earl was still pointing to.

Tyki Mikk, that Noah bastard! That fucking pervert, when he had been trying to seduce her earlier he must have… She hadn't even noticed…

A dark eyebrow jerked up and the Earl tilted his head a little further at her reaction, his dark eyes narrowing.

Mikk' head turned to actually look at her, his gold eyes looking to the spot that Ellen was covering with her trembling right hand. The pervert's lips twisted down into a thoughtful frown, before he was turning back to meet the Millennium Earl's questioning look. "Ah yes, that would differently be a hicky Earl."

Ellen, not for the first time, wished that the ground would just hurry up and swallow her whole. Everyone within the room was staring at the blank look on the Noah of Pleasure's face and then at her, then turning to look at the Earl…

Everyone seemingly waiting for the Millennium Earl's reaction to Tyki Mikk's rather nonchalant response.

The Earl's smile twitched, his gray eyes falling to be half lipped, the man's mouth opening to speak again but the words never left his mouth.

"Don't lose focus Earl." A new voice called out, interrupting the Maker in whatever he was going to say. The man that looked just like Mana, who acted just like how Ellen remembered Mana acting, turned to face the Noah that had spoken.

The Noah sitting on top of that black casket was smiling rather wide. His gold eyes turning to shoot Tyki a rather dark look a second later, once the Earl had been successful reminded that they were here with a purpose.

The young Exorcist had the feeling it had something do to with the young man that was imprisoned within the floor just under Kanda Yuu's feet. Speaking of Kanda, her comrade had yet to even twitch...

The Earl let out a heavy sigh and tipped his top hat down, the man once again turning back to face Tyki Mikk and her, that oh so familiar smile that was now twisting the Earl's face making Ellen's heart ach…

"…stop it…"

"You're absolutely right Sheryl! ~" The Earl sang out, but then paused, his gray eyes fixing Tyki with a rather reproachful look. "But don't think this gets you off the hook Tyki-pon!" the man masquerading as her Mana chuckled warningly.

Even his laugh sounded just like…

…Just like….

"Stop it…" The pervert still holding Ellen's left wrist turning to look at her again, the man catching her hissed whisper.

Mikk's gold eyes no doubt seeing how her thin shoulders were starting to shake. Ellen's petite frame shivering as her heart twisted and ached. The young woman so lost in everything that was happening…

She just wanted it to stop…

"Ellen Walker! We Noah are giving you a chance to leave the Order of your own free will! ~" The Earl said in that horribly and hauntingly familiar voice, every time the man spoke a sharp pain would pulse within her heart. The man holding his arms out, like he was welcoming her…

The pain was like a hot burning blade, cutting parts of her soul away…

"Stop it."

How- how could anyone, even the Millennium Earl, be that utterly cruel. It was unforgivable, a horrible and unforgivable sin!

"Stop it!" Ellen shrieked, her silver eyes narrowing with her rage. The young woman was then moving forward, not knowing way- maybe to make this man stop pretending to be someone that he wasn't….?

Or to rip away his horribly twisted disguise…?

Mana Walker was dead and how dare this sick fucking bastard look like him! Speak like him! Move and act just like the man that Ellen had loved like a father!

"You're not Mana!" Ellen screamed, the distraught young woman's voice echoing off the stone walls. The echo ringing loud in her ears…

Tyki Mikk's hold was like steel however, the bastard halting her advance forward. The young woman whipped around to face the pervert that was holding her back. Ellen's silver eyes burning with her fury, the Exorcist's pink lips parting to demand the pervert let her go, but the words dead on her tongue…

"Tyki!" Road called out, her tone carrying a warning and cutting the white haired young woman off.

A blur of movement, much to fast for Ellen's wide silver eyes to see, shot past her. The Noah restraining her released Elle's wrist and raised his hand to block the attack, Mikk's gray skin turn pure black, the fingers on that hand looking more like panther claws then fingers…

The Exorcist felt a surprised gasp escape her pink lips as the blur struck Mikk's transformed arm. A very familiar looking sword sending out sparks with the force of the hit.

Ellen took a step back, her silver eyes wide.

Mikk pushed Kanda back with seemingly little effort, Tyki's smirk wide and wickedly amused that the other Exorcist had tried to attack him. "Essa foi uma má jogada Exorcist. {That was a bad move Exorcist.}" The Noah hissed, his gold eyes flashing darkly…

Then Mikk's eyes were flickering over to look at her…

Kanda Yu was now standing right next to her…

Ellen had just a moment to see Tyki's eyes narrow, the pervert realizing a second to late that this had been the sword wielding Exorcist's goal…

Kanda's mouth pulled into a cold and vicious smirk. He was then reaching out to her and Ellen was to slow to react, the jerk taking a rough hold of her left wrist. A pained hissed was then forced out from Ellen's clenched teeth as Kanda Yu twisted her arm behind her back a little harsher then needed.

Ellen's cheeks growing hot when Kanda pulled her up tight against him. The older Exorcist forcing Ellen back a few steps and away from the obviously aggravated Noah of Pleasure. Ellen hissed and opened her mouth to protest her treatment, but then thought better of it when she felt the cold steel of Kanda Yu's blade press against her exposed neck.

"What the fuck is going on Moyashi?" Kanda hissed out quietly, only loud enough for the two of them to hear, at the same time forcing the young woman back two more steps. Kanda's dark blue eyes were trained on the growling Noah before him, their eyes locked in an intense glaring contest.

Kanda's eyes narrowed when the Noah took a step closer, Mikk's gold eyes flashing with warning. When Kanda spoke again it was directed at Mikk.

"Not another step Noah," Her fellow Exorcist hissed, shifting his footing so he could now see the other three Noah in the room. "Or I slit your hooker's throat."

Tyki Mikk's gold eyes narrowed and flashed with burning hot rage, but the man didn't make another move closer to the two retreating Exorcists. Ellen's cheeks heated more, mortified rage twisting her tone high at what the jerk had just called her. "I'm not a hooker!" Ellen growled out darkly.

Kanda Yu had the nerve to chuckle at her. "You're dressed like one… Now shut up, we're getting out of here." The conceited jerk hissed in her ear, the two taking a few more steps back…

That was when the floor shook and pipes shot out of the ground, the pipes twisting and blocking their only exit. Kanda hissed in anger and tightened his hold on her, his guard up and ready for anything.

The Noah that looked a little like Tyki Mikk had a twisted and amused look on his face, his gold eyes narrowed and burning with his displeasure. One hand was raised before him, the young woman realizing that he must be the one making the pipes move. "The two of you can't leave; the party hasn't even started yet." He purred out wickedly.

The Noah that the Earl had called Sheryl (the one controlling the pipes) stood up from his sitting position on the floating black casket, the second the man was standing it tipped over. Ellen's silver eyes widened as she quickly recognized the man that had been dumped onto the floor, arms missing and groaning in pain…

Tukosa…

One of the Third Exorcists if Ellen remembered right…

The floor rumbled again, more pipes twisting up and around, the body of that young man that had been imprisoned in the floor now held up for everyone to see. The body hung limp, pipes wrapped around his arms holding the man upright.

It was hard for Ellen to tell if the young man was even alive.

All the Noah were watching them, varying looks upon their faces, but the Earl's face was the worst. His mouth was twisted into a wide and rather darkly amused look, his gray eyes meeting Ellen's silver, his smile turning regretful for just a second…

"Yes, the party is just getting to the good part! ~" Road giggled from their right happily, her gold eyes flashing with glee from her place sitting next to the white haired Noah wearing the turban. "Old friends being reunited, it'll be great!" she whispered rather impishly.

It was now that Ellen noticed that the Noah next to Road was watching them with an interested look on his face…

Then his dark lips twisted into a wide smile as he turned to fix Mikk with a highly amused look. "Joyd, that Exorcist there -" He said, pointing at Kanda. "The one Kanda Yu, you might want to have some words with him later…once we're done with our party…"

Tyki Mikk turned his rather dark look on the white haired Noah, his mouth pulling down into a very displeased frown. Though Ellen could see the curiosity and confusion in the Noah of Pleasure's eyes at what the man was getting at. The other Noah sighed, though his smile stayed firmly in place. "…About keeping his hands to himself?" the white haired Noah supplied his confused brethren.

Ellen paled immediately, the young woman understanding what the Noah was referring to. Her silver eyes widened when comprehension rose in Tyki Mikk's burning golden eyes, the rage and jealousy that was now burning within them truly frightening.

The young woman could feel Kanda tense, his hold on her left wrist now bruising. The pompous jerk picking up on the new wave of murderous intent rolling of the Noah of Pleasure.

"Now, now kids. Lets all play nice. ~" The Earl sang out, his dark gray eyes baring down on them from his new place, standing atop a large twisted pipe. "Kanda Yu, you remember Alma Karma?"

The jerk holding her growled at the name, his grip on her wrist tightening to the point that Ellen couldn't hold back her whimper of pain. Her comrade loosened his grip a second later, Ellen's fellow Exorcist letting out a rather tasteless chuckled.

"That's not Alma." he spoke in a tone lined with ice, the older Exorcist pulling Ellen two more steps back…

The members of the Noah Clan present all looked confused, before they were all glaring at the white haired Noah.

"Wisely!" Road shrieked, the small girl suddenly on her feet and smacking her fellow Noah on the head. Wisely griped at the miss treatment, his gold eyes looking utterly confused as he turned back to Kanda and Ellen…

He frowned rather deeply, and then was grinning insanely wide at the blue haired Exorcist. The Earl's gray eyes noted Wisely's grin, the turban wearing Noah opening his mouth to speak but stopped when the Earl motion with his hand to pause for a moment.

The Millennium Earl gave a heavy sigh, his face twisting into one of complete seriousness, like he had just come to a decision over something. Those hauntingly familiar gray eyes once again looking at Ellen with more of that horrid regret, but also resolution.

"Allen."

The young Exorcist's petite body tensed, Ellen's heart frozen in her chest as her ears rang with that name. A cold ball of black ice forming around her heart and mind, around Ellen's very soul.

Kanda Yu paused in his retreat and Ellen could have sworn that she heard him call her name, but all the young woman could hear was…

"Allen."

No… it couldn't be…

"The name Ellen was a take off the name Allen." The imposter continued, his eyes still looking into hers. Ellen shook her head in denial, her silver eyes wide and her whole body starting to shale horribly.

Silence, the whole room was overtaken in silence…

"Allen was the name of the first thing, animal or human, that had ever been kind to you. You met the little mutt when a poor 'traveling clown' joined a circus; the place where you were living at the time, if you could call that living." The Earl continued, reciting the words in an even tone, like he had rehearsed them hundreds of time before today, his face and voice now betraying little.

No! It couldn't be!

Ellen had never told a soul about the origin of her name… No one knew how she had come to go by Ellen -

Lies!

He couldn't be -

"Remember Ellen Walker, everything that happens from this point on is for your own good. " The Millennium Earl said, like he was speaking to an unruly child. The man's mouth twisting up and into an amused smile, though deep within those hauntingly familiar gray eyes was a shadow of remorse…

And Guilt...

"Wisely if you would. ~"

Dun Dun DUN!

So that ends the first chapter to the sequel of "What Lies Hidden"

… Please tell me what you think?

I also had some questions about whether Ellen will be or is pregnant … *cackles evilly*

… I picked a title for one of the chapters in 'What Lies Hidden' with the answer to that very question in mind!

Actually… all the titles for the chapters have a little bit of meaning to them… but anyway…

There will be more Tyki-pon in the next chapter…. hopefully… Poor Tyki-pon, he didn't get much love in this chapter did he? Oh, I will be skipping over the whole Kanda and Alma memory lane thing… sorry… : (
