Time Flies When You Are Having Fun...(D.Gray-man x Reader)

Chapter 2 - Introductions

Authors Note: I'm thinking of having multiple endings for this story, so let me know who you guys would want as an ending~

 Lulu Bell opens the door and ushers me inside. There all the Noah sat that currently were awakened. They sat around a long dining room table covered in a white cloth. They each sit in tall red chairs surrounding the table. The floor is covered with checkered black and white tiles that ominously vanishes outward around the pitch black room. Lulu Bell pushes me to stand at the very end of one side across from the Millennium Earl. I feel numerous pairs of eyes on me, and my cheeks heat up at the fact that I am still only in a towel. I glance around and observe that six people are sitting at the table. At the end directly across from me sat the Millenium Earl in all his glory. Directly to the left of the Earl is a lean man with curly hair pulled back in the front. He has a card deck and is shuffling them absentmindedly. This had to be Tyki Mikk. Next to him is a little girl with spiky blue hair who looks interested in me, specifically interested in toying with me more likely. She is wearing a school outfit.  Road Kamelot. On the right side of the table is a bulky man with short spiky black hair. He is terrifying to look at because he has no pupils as he stares down angrily at an egg sitting in front of him. Skinn Bolic. To the right of him are two people who are inseparable. One has long blonde hair and their mouth is sewn shut, and the other has semi-long black hair and eyeliner around his eyes The infamous duo; Jasdero and Devit. Man, they looked weird in the anime but seeing them in real life was on a whole other level. Lulu Bell begins to introduce me:

"This is the girl I was talking about earlier. Her name is ____. She says that she has no idea as to how she got here, yet she knows who I am and of my Noah and feline form. I brought her here for an explanation and to make sure she wouldn't run as she had tried to already." She studies me one last time before going to sit down. I glare daggers into her back as she walks away. Talk about trying to already throw me under the bus.

"Who wouldn't run away upon finding out that you aren't a cosplayer and are actually someone who could snap me in half like a twig!" I get strange looks and a single chuckle from around the table. Since no one decides to say anything, I continue, "Yes, my name is ____. I was in my own house taking a shower. As I finish up and start to leave I feel dizzy and I catch myself on the door. I go to open the door and found myself face to face with Lulu Bell. I have no idea how I got here, and I would rather not be here. I shouldn't be able to exist in this world." My last statement raises a few eyebrows as I cross my arms over my chest to cover up. The Earl at the other end of the table begins to speak all the while a Cheshire grin spreads across his face. Why does he seem so happy about this? 

"Dear child, I'm sorry that you had to go through this. My name is the Millenium Earl, but you probably already know that don't you?" I nod my head and look up from tightening my towel as he gives me a knowing look, "You can call me Adam. Can you elaborate on what you mean by 'not existing in this world' and how you know of us?" I furrow my eyebrows. Adam? Why would he let me call him Adam? No one calls him Adam yet, it's almost familiar to me. Adam... Adam... What was that!? Ok _____, I need to calm down and take deep breathes, I'm just imagining things now. I can't let this get to me or I'll seem weak to these guys; I don't need to give them a reason to start toying with me.

"It's a long story. Do I have the time to do so Earl?" I ask and look at him while I shuffle in place absentmindedly as I tighten my towel evermore. He gives me a wide grin as if signaling me to go. I start up again with a shaky breath, "The reason I shouldn't exist in this world is that I'm from another dimension or timeline. I don't exist in this timeline, and even if I did, at this point, I won't exist for another 100 years or so." I fiddle with my towel as I look about the room. Most of the Noah looked at me curiously as I took a bit of a stronger breath to continue, "I was currently living in America in the 2000s. Today was May 10th, 2019 for me back in my timeline. I believe I am not time traveling but from a different timeline. I believe this because you all never existed during the 1900s in my timeline and don't currently exist either to my knowledge. " With this remark, I got a few raised eyebrows so I tried to explain while remaining calm, "The reason I am familiar with you is not that you are present in my timeline but that your timeline takes place within a novel in my timeline. Essentially, you are a fictional tale in my world. Does that make sense?" I let out everything and feel slightly relieved as my shoulders begin to relax but almost immediately tense upon looking around the room. They all seem to have their suspicions of me and they all want some proof about my claims. The only one who didn't seem suspicious was the Earl. In fact, he seemed very eager at my presence. Either way, I need to convince the other Noah. "Look here, why would I be lying to any of you when I know you could all kill me in a second flat? I can tell you anything you would only expect a Noah to know." I glance about the room quickly hoping for someone to chime in an offer something for me to answer. Finally, I hear a cough from the Earl. 

"Alright, Let's hear what you know about the Noah. Tell me about a Noah that is not currently present and something about them." He looks at me waiting for an answer with a slight glint in his beady eyes. It felt like he was searching for something in my own eyes, looking deep into my soul. I shiver slightly under the gaze. Adam... Would you stop, please? I am trying to concentrate. I shake my head to try to stop the voice from ringing in my ears. I wrap my towel tighter around me as I begin.

"How about Wisely? I know he will awaken soon and that he is the Noah of Memory. He can read other people's thoughts as well as mess with their mind by releasing forgotten memories. He gets headaches often and doesn't wish to fight in this war." I finish with a little bit more confidence at having remembered the Noah. I notice most of the Noah are shocked or impressed at my knowledge. I remember that I have my phone as well. "Another thing to add, I also have most of the book you are all from in this device called a phone. The book wasn't finished yet so I don't know everything that is going to happen but I know enough. Only I can access this device." Most of the Noah are definitely surprised but the Earl seems quite thrilled.

"Well, that is all correct about Wisely and this phone of yours is quite intriguing. I know you don't understand how you got here but maybe we can help with that, and for that accommodation, you could detail how our story unfolds to us?" He gives me a big grin, and I look up with shock written on my face. Oh God, if I told them what was to happen, this could ultimately end the war with the Earl winning, but if I don't they will probably kill me, and I would never get home. Hell, do I even want to go home? Sure I will miss my family, but everything else in life seems like absolute hell. This whole ordeal is a cake walk comparatively... Don't agree to anything yet. Ask the Earl for time to think about it. The Earl will not kill you. You again?  Do you actually say something more than just Adam?  Look, this will give me time to explain all of that. I know why you are here. I mean that does sound reasonable, and it seems to be the only thing I can be ok with saying right now. Alright, I'm going to put my faith in you. I look the Earl in the eyes before I spoke.

"Earl, I will need to have some time to think about it, can you give me a couple of days?" I await an answer as he gives me a keen glance. For some reason unknown to me, his gaze softens.

"Of course we can wait for you dearie, take all the time you need, I will have Tyki escort you to an available room." He answers with a brief nod and looks over to Tyki expectantly. Tyki glances up from his cards begrudgingly and stands up. He walks over and offers his arm to me, but I decline.

"Lead the way Tyki Mikk," I state with my hands on my hips. He glances at me and chuckles at my stubbornness. He slyly loops one of his arms and pulls me along as I mutter a couple of curses but eventually I go along with it. Let's hope this is the right choice.
