  Many nobility sat in the audience, waiting for the singer who would be performing tonight. In an exclusive seat, the Prime Minister of England sat with his daughter happily.
"When will it start father?" The little girl says to her father.
" Momentarily Road, be patient." The man replies. Then the curtains open as the lights shine brightly upon a woman in a red gown with a venitian mask. The woman then lifts up the mouth part of her mask, breathing as she begins her song. The man starts having a nosebleed, staring at her beautiful body.

Think of me
Think of me fondly
When we've said goodbye
Remember me
Once in a while
Please promise me you'll try
When you find
That once again you long
To take your heart back and be free
If you ever find a moment
Spare a thought for me
We never said our love was evergreen
Or as unchanging as the sea
But if you can still remember
Stop and think of me
Think of all the things
We've shared and seen
Don't think about the
Way things might have been
Think of me
Think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me
Trying too hard to put you from my mind
Recall those days
Look back on all those times
Think of the things we'll never do
There will never be a day
When I won't think of you
Flowers fade
The fruits of summer fade
They have their season so do we
But please promise me that sometimes
You will think of me

The woman finishes her song and exits the stage after a graceful curtsy. As applause resonates through the hall, the woman let's out a sigh of relief back stage.
" There are akuma here, contact the units it's time to take care of business. I've changed into my uniform so I'm ready to fight." (Y/n) says while activating her innocence at level 2.
" Attack now akuma, plenty of souls here for you to take. Too bad I didn't bring Tyki with us." The man says while leaving through a portal with his daughter. Then the fight ensues, akuma attacking nearby finders and exorcists. (Y/n) lures the group of akuma out of the opera house, attempting to get them in the open. They stop right by a canal, just as the rest of the exorcists attack the akumas. Then (y/n) spots a level 4 among them, heading straight towards her.
"Mother, how nice to see you. The Earl enjoyed the performance tonight. I'll kill you and bring you to the Earl now." The akuma says with a childlike giggle. (Y/n) recalls how she eliminated the level 4 previously, recalling the lyrics to the Song of Mortality. She then decides to sing the song once again, even if it will drain her energy. Even if her body is in bad shape from torture and experiments from the crows. When she finishes the song, she manages to land safely a few miles away from the fight. She then flies to a nearby tower, covering her face with the mask from before. She silently lands on the tower, hiding as she hears a familiar voice resonating.
"Good morning and welcome back my lovely family!" The Earl says as the Noah family appears around him.
" Thirty-five years have passed since you all were so cruelly slaughtered by the traitorous 14th. Your Noah memories damaged in the process, its taken this long for your dormant memories to properly heal and allow you to reincarnate." The Earl continues.
"The second apostle Tryde, the third apostle Joyd, the fourth apostle Desires, the sixth apostle Feedra, the seventh apostle Mercym, the ninth apostle Road, the tenth and eleventh apostles Bondom, the twelfth apostle Lustor, the thirteenth apostle Mightra and of course Adam's first apostle The Millennium Earl." The fifth apostle Wisely remarks calmly.
"I'm tickled an intestinal pink to have you all back." The Earl says with his smile. The conversation continued to get very wierd, until a specific comment was made.
" It's time we finally wipe innocence from the Earth and destroy the Heart. After 7 millenia, we will be the generation to bring an end to this endless infernal crusade!" Declares the Millennium Earl loudly.
"Good evening everyone. That's a rather bold declaration to be making. I'd like to see how you intend to do that, Millennium Earl. Would you happen to be familiar with the name Eve?" Speaks (y/n) curiously as she lands on the bridge across from the Noah, removing the mask with a bow.
" Hello (y/n)-chan, a wonderful performance tonight dear. Just how do you know the name Eve?" The Earl replies, gripping Lero tightly while paling.
"That's what the fourteenth called me when I saw his shadow in the ark. Perhaps that has to do with the memories I am missing. I can see all of your shadows also, your inner Noah I'm guessing." The female exorcist deduces expertly, observing his reaction. The Earl then looks at the open back of her uniform, seeing the tree mark on her back along with her body covered in scars and injuries.
" Thanks to that stupid mark and this strange power I possess, I am tortured and experimented upon daily. At this point I wish someone could tell me who I actually am. They have assumed I'm involved with the Noah somehow. I am just a pawn to them after all." (Y/n) comments sadly as she collapses, scars opening and bleeding.
" Well I'm glad to see you again Love, just not in such bad shape. Yet ironically, it does nothing to mar your beauty." Tyki says with a small smile. Then Lavi appears, extending his hammer to pick up the girl.
" I'm gonna take you to the Old Panda, he'll fix you up. I'm sorry they do this to you, even Allen is treated better. The Central Agency wishes to have you interrogated now to, but the chiefs convinced them otherwise due to your condition currently." Lavi whispered to her as he took her back to the Order. Then she is returned to a locked room, only for the hell to continue. This time however the girl has a rather confusing vision. She stands with the Noah, but she only feels love and happiness. They look upon her with love, mixed with relief at the sight of her. This is when (y/n) begins seeing things she has never seen, like a monster with red eyes and white skin looking at her sadistically. Little did she know, this monster and her had quite the history. (Y/n) screamed as scars began mysteriously appearing, burning as if they had acid poured on them. Bookman then figures out her identity, telling Lavi to stash that information away deep inside his head.
