Chapter III

Normal POV

+++┼+++

Two teenage boys entered Allen's room in the ark. Both were (obviously) of Japanese origin. One of the teens had blond dyed hair and the other maroon both in J-rock style.
"Ohai~ (1)" they greeted in union with huge grins pasted on their faces.
"Raiden Yori(2), what are you two doing here?" Tyki asked the twins, blinking his eyes.
"Why we are here? To see how our new brother is doing of course" Yori said in his 'duh'-voice,
"And we thought you might want to know what ideas we have…" Raiden continued until he was, in his opinion, rudely interrupted by Neah; "Tell me! What do you know?"
"woa woa, don't get so pushy… besides we will only share our information with you if you give something in return. You know where I'm going?"
"Money!" Yori yelled while Raiden nodded and crossed his arms to lean against the wall.
"Is this about those debts Cross stuck you with centuries ago?" Tyki asked, keeping Neah from paying the idiots by steeling his money and using it to fan himself.
"Oh yeah- those debts. I forgot. But you know Cross has died long ago along with his debts right? _{give my money back, Tyki; I'm not gonna pay.}"
"But…" Raiden stuttered
"No buts. Now tell us what you've got you two."
Yori obviously wanted to argue further but was stopped by an elbow-stomp in his stomach, given to him by his twin.
"Well, we've only got opinions but…"
"Just tell us."
"Okay. Well maybe he got turned into an akuma before Adam died?" Yori tried.
"Impossible. You know Allen killed Adam together with me. Besides, all akuma were ordered to self-destruct after the war." Neah pointed out.
"Maybe he's a ghost?"

=__=;;; ^{yeah right…}

Tyki POV

idiots…

The twins luckily for me realized they were being stupid, and decided to shut up. They sat down on the couch and watched at Allen with obvious concern in their eyes.
Apparently they had grown to care for my shounen too.

"Say Neah, we know you know so, what Noah will Allen be?" Raiden asked after a long pause.
They made me realize Neah had once said Allen's Noah didn't have any powers at all. Though I didn't know he was talking about the shounen back then.
He had been busy creating the 15^th's powers ever since. He had been busy for years.
Thanks to _preRoad I know _preNeah didn't show up without anyone expecting it; Adam and her knew.
In fact, Adam had created _preNeah completely.

(A/N: when you see '_pre' in front of someone's name, I mean their previous lives (with Adam this isn't necessary 'cuz he didn't reincarnate. )

"You know how much I like music, right?" Neah eventually asked,
we nodded.
"He is the Noah of Sound. I created him watching all your abilities, for example: he can use the sound wave power of Tyki's full-noah form (his true-form) and he can use Bond's ability to summon things, but only instruments."
</i>Doesn't sound that strong actually…</i>
Neah looked at me as if could read my thoughts as he continued; "That's not all. Using his voice or one of these instruments to sing or play a tune, he can summon demons, dragons, warriors, etc. He isn't weak at all."

I thought for a moment, the powers seemed good, but why had my cute shounen a Noah without them?
That didn't make sense at all.

Or perhaps...

4 days later (9th day of Allen's change)

I was just going to check Allen's fever when I saw Road's eyes open slowly. Surprised, I shook Neah awake (it was 4 am).
Road slowly blinked a few times at took her surroundings in before she slowly got up.
"Road? You awake? Why?"
Road watched at me with tired eyes; "I didn't have enough power to stay there any longer"
Wait what? Road out of power? You don't see that everyday…
"How come?" Neah asked surprised as our gazes landed on Allen, who was struggling like he had a nightmare.
"The same reason why not only a part of me could go there; it is a world of its own…" She answered though it was quite obvious Neah knew that already, no?
"I know that, but why was it so hard to stay there?" Neah asked rather interested.
I knew he knew.
"Do you know it is protected by magic similar to the magic Adam could preform? That you could be there without any problems, simply means it was designed to let you in." Road told Neah
I didn't have any comment on this; other then those two, I don't mess with people's minds; it's rude. But I was concerned about Allen.
"What happened before you got thrown out?" I asked.
"You should know Allen's mind has a guardian. His name is Sashura, he makes sure Allen won't go insane… What's the matter Neah?"

Neah POV

Sashura? That was…

Flashback~ (Normal POV)

-Neah, age: 19 Mana, age: 23

(3)

"Brother?"
"What is it, Neah?" Mana asked with his trade-mark smile,
"What are you doing?" Neah asked innocently; he only acted this way with his dear older brother.
"I am designing a curse. If I'm right, this could be one as powerful as the Earl's curses" Mana always loved magic. As long as Neah could remember, he was making spells, curses, alchemy circles and so much more.
"That's great, Mana! What kind of curse is it this time?" Neah asked enthusiastic.
"It's a guardian named Sashura. But I can't tell you more."
"eeeh?" Neah pouted but this conversation was forgotten only minutes later.

End Flashback (Back to Neah POV) _{I hate flashbacks =___=;;;}

That couldn't be right, could it?

"Road… Was this Sashura somehow connected to Mana?" I asked hesitantly somewhat fearing the answer Road would give, though I was not so sure why.
Road looked me in the eyes, she nodded; "Shura is part of the curse Mana gave Allen."
"ah so..."
So this curse was always meant for Allen. How did he know? My brother was always smart but I never guessed he had the ability to see the future.
What else had he known?

Allen POV

monster...
I'm a monster, everybody knows.
I'll never be accepted again.

I could feel the tears run down my cheeks but I didn't even bother to wipe them off.
The 15th rubbed my back with pity.
I don't want pity; I want a true family, a true home.
***, the 15th Noah, seemed to be able to read my thoughts of my face; he wiped my tears away and looked into my eyes for a while.
"You're not a monster, Allen. And the other Noah will welcome you in the family with open arms."

*** got up and signalled me to follow him.
I got up too and followed him as he stepped on the lake in which we didn't sink at all.

"It's time I told you a story" *** said with his caramel voice, "do you know the story of Adam and Eve?"
"Sort of, but that story was proven untrue, wasn't it?" I asked. *** paused for a moment, looking like he was in deep thought.
"The story of the bible never happened. What I'm talking about is the actual start of the clan of Noah. It is a very important story if you are going to become the 15th Noah."
But do I want to be a Noah anyways?
Either way, I would let *** tell me his story.
"You know the true name of the millennium earl was Adam, right?"
I nodded.
"Humanity came to earth as science proved. But there is also a guardian of earth. You people refer to this being as 'God'. God had enough of seeing humanity corrupt his special planet, but he wasn't able to erase them for God is the symbol of love. So he decided something entirely else; he pulled a rib out of Satan, who in time was an archangel, and created Adam. He told him he had to go to earth to bring humanity on the straight path, the path that wouldn't destroy nature. Adam was to chose those worthy of living and those worthy of nothing else than death.

Adam used the powers God gave him for years, but had still not found anyone really worthy of life. Until he met Eve. Eve thought the same way as Adam and helped him with his quest. They had children with each their unique power, they called themselves the Noah.
But there were of course humans who had turned against them. Eve had no powers, she was a mere human. Eve was killed by one of the humans.
And Adam was filled by hatred; no longer he would follow 'God' the one that said humans had hope. No, Adam turned to the devil whom he was a rib from.
Satan gave Adam and his can more power and the ability to create akuma. In turn God created innocence."

"But if that's true, I don't want to be a Noah" I said as I turned my head away.
*** smiled; "you didn't let me finish."


Normal POV

~Urahara Shop~

"How did I end up here again?" Lustul wondered, "I guess I'll go undercover, dog form, to look for information here too."
And with that, he took the form of the black wolf-like dog, just a little more skinny, and he entered the shop.

"oho~ what a beautiful dog you are!" Urahara commented as he noticed Lustul drooling over some food, "hungry aren't ya?"

"bark!"

Urahara laughed and offered him some food which Lustul gladly took.
Urahara patted his head.
Lustul panted happily and rolled over to let Urahara rub his tummy, which he did.

Tessai was lured by the noice Lustul was making and came to have a look.
"oh! A dog! Can we keep him, Tencho?"

"sure, sure. Cute isn't he?"

_{(lustul: )} 'hehehe, that was easy'

Back to Allen's mind~

"So Adam created Neah?" Allen asked; he was pretty confused.
"Yes, he did. He missed Eve so much, he created a new Noah-soul with his memories of Eve. This soul possessed the body of Neah." *** explained.
"But Neah betrayed Adam! Didn't he?"
"He did. And that was for exactly that reason; that he was created as some sort of replacement for Eve." *** told Allen, who still didn't understand;
"So Neah was jealous or angry because he was just a replacement?"
"Not at all; remember Adam sold his soul to devil. Eve never wanted something like that; Eve believed in God. She didn't love  Adam anymore..."
"... And so Neah, who was like Eve, turned against him because he wanted to bring the clan of Noah back to what they used to be" Allen finished and *** nodded; "Exactly. But neither of them knew Eve reincarnated too, she was always around."

"wait, what? Who is Eve than?" Allen asked.

"it's me" Eve grinned.

"BUT YOU'RE A GUY!"
