1. Let the dark waltz begin (Prologue)

by LexieDragomire

It was dark night on the graveyard. Everything was silent except a strange talk between a young boy with abnormal white hair like old men would have and an even stranger looking figure.

"Good evening, boy," said the figure.

The boy stood up and he washed away his tears. He looked at the fat figure with an umbrella in his hand.

"What is a little boy like you doing on such a place at such a time?"

"I came… to visit my father, sir… I hope it's not forbidden," he said with a shaky voice.

"Not at all boy. I'm very sorry for what happened to him. He was a very good man."

"Yes," he snubbed trying to hold back his tears from falling down again. "Sir, did you know him?"

"O yes, boy I did. Actual I was waiting for him a quite a long time," the figure laugh. "But as I can see now I was waiting for the wrong person."

"Pardon?"

"Oh, nothing. What do you say boy you come with me, hm? I got a few things that I wanted to tell you and I can see that you are quite hungry, aren't you?" Right after that boy's stomach had agreed with a lout growl.

"And I can hear, so what do you say are you coming with me?" Laughed the figure again with a dark and frightening laugh.

The boy looked at the grave beside him. Mana Walker.

"We can come visit him tomorrow if you like boy."

"Yes I would like that." The figure put a scary looking smile on his face and held out a hand for the boy.

He looked at her and a memory had shoved in this head a memory of a good man that once did the same gesture and save his live. If it helped once why wouldn't it work now?

The Boy gently accepted the hand a together there reached thought the graveyard.

"By the way boy what's your name? I don't think that calling you boy would be a good idea," he said and made a face.

The boy almost smiled but he managed to hold it. "It's Allen sir. Allen Walker."

"Hm, well Allen Walker it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm sure we are going to be friends. I'm the Earl Millennium."

"Nice to meet you sir."

They walked to the dark. Even there shadows had disappeared.

"Oh, I forgot. Do you know why your hair is white?"

"Not really. It just is."

"I see."

"It's just like my arm sir," he slowly shoved his red hand.

"My my. Such a you exorcist." "Pardon?"

"Oh, it's nothing but if you are very interested. How about I tell you a story, hm? It is quite a funny one about people that are putting kids fight in a war now isn't that hilarious?"

"Fight in a war? But that not right. Kids should fight in wars. They should play and go to circus."

"Yes, they should. Want to help me? So the kids wouldn't have to fight anymore?" asked the Earl smirking.

"Of course," agreed Allen happily.

"Great, Allen we are going to do lots of changes in this war. So the kids wouldn't have to fight. So no exorcist would have to fight."

"Ok… sir? What is an exorcist?" asked Allen innocently.

Earl laughed again. "Oh, boy this is going to take a while."


Few years latter...

Allen looked frowning at the sky. "Would it rain?" asked Road while she was controlling silks that were building a portal.

Allen sat up from the ground and looked at her. She had already made a quite job. The blue think flowing in the air had already looked like an omelet.

"You're really good at it," mumbled Allen softly.

She smirked. "Of course I am because I´m the best of all the Noahs, silly."

He shooked his head and lied down again.

"Master Allen!" screamed a Level 1 Akuma that flew to him.

"What's wrong?" Allen stood up and Road turn her head to them.

"Exorcist sir they are coming this way."

Allen sighed. "Another fight another life or innocent taken another sad soul."

"Welcome to reality Allen, what you thought? Happiness and love. Sorry to say but that Santa's not real. And for the end of the war we had to do it," she said flustered.

Allen kept silent.

"Just tried to slow them down," she continued her work with a warm smile. "Earl didn't say what should we do if we met some exorcist that way we didn't have to destroy their innocent, right?"

"Yeah, your right."

'I can't believe she is encouragedin this. You should stopped thinking as an exorcist. It's only slowing you down. Do not need to destroy their innocent. You're pathetic,' said theNoah in him.

"Maybe but I just down feel right about it. It makes me sad. Besides I don't want to fight and hurt to much loser. They're not worthy of it."

'Well that more like it boy.'

"Level 1 stay with Road, ok?"

"Yes sir."

"Oh please Allen I'm not that weak. I can take care of myself," she exclaimed and continued to work.

Allen looked once angain at the sky. ´I hope it will rain.´ He run away.
