Chapter 8,

--Ally's POV--

I woke up and I felt fully refreshed. I sit up and notice that Lavi is passed out beside me. I don't move an inch as I take in his beautiful red hair and his black eye patch that covered his right eye, I wanted to move it so I could see his full face but I respect his privacy and turn myself away from him. For some reason I feel very light right now, has my innocence healed any? I want to see Hevlaska now so she can tell me the status of my sync rate. I slowly and quietly move myself out of bed making sure not to wake the cute, red headed boy sleeping on my infirmary bed. I keep to myself as I head to Komui's office to request to see Hevlaska.

I knock on his office door, "Come in." His high-pitched voice rings from within the room. I open the door and his face changes from his usual over excited self, to his serious side. "Alana?"

"I want to see Hevlaska." I say getting straight to the point. "I want to check up on my innocence."

"Okay." He nods and escorts me down to Hevlaska's chamber. Once the small elevated lands on the lowest floor of the Asian branch we both step out. "Hev!" He greets the huge, see-through, dragon-like woman. It's hard to believe that she's a Exorcist too.

"Yes." Her beautiful voice echoes throughout the room.

Komui turns toward me nodding, I stepped forward into Hevlaska's view. "I'm..."

She scoots closer to me and wraps her tentacle-like arms around me. "You're Alana, Allen Walker's clone. Innocence 'Heaven's Wings', whom's sync rate has recently fell to 54%."

"Yes."'I smile, it was amazing how she could know all that information just by touching me.

"You're just as interesting as Allen." She says with excitement, if she could smile I bet she would be right now. "Allen Walker the one prophesied to be the killer of time. He's quite an interesting specimen." She moves her head closer to mine. "The same goes for his female replication." She puts her forehead to mine and a bright light erupts from between them blinding me temporarily. She begins counting, "20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70," she pauses, "79%. Your Sync Rate has risen again, but not to it's original rate." She pulls her forehead away and sets me down on the floor, her arms sliding off me and back toward her.

"Is there any chance that it will raise to 100% again?" I ask shivering at the thought of it lowering again. "And will it lower once more?" I really don't want to feel the heaviness that my innocence brought upon me at my last fight.

"There is no telling with innocence." She sighs, Komui walks over to my side and pats my shoulder trying to comfort me.

"Lavi told me about his father." I turn to both Hevlaska and Komui. They both sigh, "I won't stop fighting, as an Exorcist I must fight. I was given the gift to fight so I must use it." I almost growl. "So please do not stop me from fighting." Suddenly I begin crying.

"Alana." Komui wraps an arm around my shoulder. "Why are you crying?" I've got the feeling that he doesn't know how to comfort people very well.

"Please fighting as an Exorcist is the only thing keeping me from being shoved back in a test tube." Tears slide down my face faster as I confess one of my deepest fears. "Nobody depends on me in a test tube, all I do is lie there watching people testing on me or other horrible creations that no one else knows about." He gives me a weird look, that's right, nobody but Central Order and it's projects know of what horrible things exist within our own allies. "Forget I said that." I frown, some things are better left unknown. The horrible, sick things that Central Order has made or done to unlucky Exorcist's. For example, the Third Exorcist's are part Akuma, the way they were fused with those demons cells was borderline unholy. The way I was made wasn't much better. From what I hear anyways, apparently they had to kill a young, girl exorcist who was the holder of 'Heaven's Wings' before myself and they used her body and Allen's genes to create me. But apparently I wasn't stable enough on that alone, so they killed a few other special people in the order to use their special abilities to stabilize me. The excuse for killing them was that I was the secret to winning the war against the Earl. Ha, secret to winning the war my ass, I can barely defeat a Level 3 on my own and on top of that my innocence is failing. Basically my life is pointless. Why should I be alive and that poor group of people that died to create me be killed and eventually forgotten for good. Although I'm sure Alana Walker, Project 14 isn't the most scandalous thing Central Order has created.

One of my Creators told me the story of Alma Karma, a second Exorcist who went mad after finding out how he, well she, was made. You see, Alma was a young boy who had the brain of a woman Exorcist who had died in the war long ago. Yu Kanda is also a second Exorcist who fortunately didn't end up killing the whole science division like Alma. Kanda and Alma were made in horrendous way too. I don't see how they lived with themselves. Alma ended up killing the whole science division and Kanda ended up killing him. I looked at the clueless Komui. Little did he or Kanda know that Alma was still alive and being tested on as we speak.

"Don't worry, Alana. You won't stop being an Exorcist." Rouvelier's voice came from behind me. "You will fight till your death." He glares at me. "We don't have many Exorcist's. So you will fight." Maybe if you guys didn't murder your own Allies you would have more Exorcist's.

I frown but quickly force a smile. "Good." I ignore his glare and head back upstairs and join Lenalee who seems happier now.

"Hey Ally." She beams almost blowing me away with her happiness. How is so happy when people are dropping dead left and right?

"Hi Lenalee. Why are you so happy?" I pause, only one person could make her this happy. "Is Allen alright?"

"Yes. He's fine now. I finally got to speak to him." She smiles wide. "Until freaking Link interrupted our reunion." She still smiles and then frowns. "Although when Allen woke up he looked like a different person. His eyes were scary." She looks at me concerned.

"I'm sure he was just tired and confused." I lie trying to comfort her. Allen's eyes changing like that cannot be a good sign. The Noah within him is closer to taking him over. In my head I throw a pity party, the last thing I need to do is upset her.

"I guess that could be true." She pulls me into the lunch room.

"At least everyone is okay." I noticed that Kanda was sitting at his usual table all alone and eating his usual fill of Soba noodles. Hum, he's a weird one. I heard a commotion out in the hall so I ran out and saw Allen on the ground innocence and his left eye activated. A Third (third Exorcist) stood staring him down.

Link stepped in and confronted the Third whom he obviously knew. "I'm in charge of this young man. So please don't harm him."

"Hym, Inspector Howard Link." The large Third spoke.

A young girl who I notice to be a Third as well stepped closer to the guy. "Goushi, deactivate."

Another Third steps up, "Madarao isn't going to be happy, Goushi." The man sighs disappointed in the large man known as Goushi.

A group of people now surrounded Allen to make sure he was alright. Marie held him closely checking his head wound. Allen's left eye suddenly subsided as Goushi deactivated. Allen looked confused. Krory knelt down, "Allen are you alright?" Allen nodded and stood.

"Our apologies, Allen Walker." The younger Third stepped forward.

"Who are these guys?" I heard Lavi's voice behind me. I turned as he stopped beside me and whispered, "Thanks for waking me up." I give him a smirk as the Third explains that they are part Akuma and are known as the 'Third Exorcists.'I noticed Kanda in the corner of the room and he looked pissed. Even though I'm across the room from him I could still hear his pissed off sound, 'Tch.' He stormed out of the hall and back into the Dining hall. I turned my attention to Allen and his disgusted look, he clearly didn't like the new Exorcist's and the fact that they were made from Akuma that have suffering souls clinging to them.
