Anime Hearts: The Darkness of Pure Hearts

Disclaimer: I do not own One Piece, Bleach, D. Gray-man, Inuyasha, or Kingdom Hearts.

Kenshin: Well what do you know Haou; We got two reviews. That's more than I expected for a fic put in such an overlooked part of the site. Makes me wish Space Hero had left out One Piece and Bleach.

Haou: The play, I mean, plot wouldn't be what it will be without Luffy, Inuyasha, Allen AND Ichigo. Speaking of which, let's go see what the monkey, dog, clown and strawberry are up to...

Manabu: Also, this is the first chapter Space Hero has that has been beta-read by someone. The genius responsible for this work is Noah Gabriel, an excellent writer as well.

Key Hole 2: The First Detour

It has been twenty four hours since the four chosen ones left Heaven to search for the four criminals of their worlds. These enemies will become trouble to these mortals as they themselves have histories with these wicked men. Big One is still soaring across the galaxy connecting the worlds, as the driver who was unknown to even our heroes heads towards an unknown location/world. If they plan to win, they will have to learn how to work together.

"WHO YOU CALLING MANGY MUTT YA STUPID JACKASS!?" That might take a while.

"THE ONLY DUMBASS IN HERE WITH 'INU' IN HIS NAME, HAGE!!" Another voice screams, leading to a bunch of crash and bang noises expelling out from the train's walls. Let's take a look inside...

"What are those two fighting about?" Luffy asks the white haired boy in front of him, who was devouring a piece of steak like he always does. Awaiting his answer Luffy goes on to devouring a piece of meat along with Allen, enjoying their meal to the fullest.

"I don't know Luffy-san." Allen says, swallowing his steak with water. He then turns around and sees Inuyasha and Ichigo swinging their swords at one another with lightning sparking through their eyes by just gazing at the other.

"Ichigo got mad probably because Inuyasha made fun of his name. Then Ichigo retaliated by cracking on Inuyasha-san's dog like appearance." Luffy then makes an 'oh' sound in comprehension to his understanding, and voraciously goes back to eating.

"HEY!! DON'T THINK YOU CAN EAT ALL THIS BY YOURSELF!!" Allen then races to consuming more than his rubber companion, who seems to be the only one who shares in eating habit.

Ichigo and Inuyasha were both still clashing at one another, Zangetsu and Tessaiga currently unable to surpass the other. The two were standing in front of the other with their blades holding the other back. Inuyasha and Ichigo push back away from each other, coming back to a stare-down.

"You piss me off dog-breath!" Ichigo's reiatsu begins to flare up, as if he was about to use some powerful technique.

"Heh! As if I'm any worse than a filthy smelling mortal! You may possess an interesting stench, but cloaking that is a human's." Inuyasha flames back, as a scraping wind surrounds his blade. It seems both were about to blow the other away.

"Ikuse! Getsuga/Kaze no-" Both of them shout at the same time, but the minute they raised their swords into the air the train suddenly stopped, slamming both fighters into the other. Their rising energies stop flowing the minute their skulls cracked into the other.

Ichigo and Inuyasha fall to the ground in pain, blood seeping from their heads. "FIRST STOP: HAKUREI!!"

Inuyasha was the first to rise up, having been use to falling on the ground quickly more than Ichigo. "What the hell...what happened?"

"You fell down." Allen states, as Ichigo revives finally and sees that he and Luffy were preventing the food from falling to the floor. To this sweat falls down the back of his head.

Inuyasha motions his head to look out the cloaked windows, until he gets up and moves the curtains out of the way. He and the others gasp to see that they were already in the world they were heading to; the train has landed in a forest area. Somewhere to its left stands a white volcano. People stares at the train in shock; mostly because they didn't realize the train would crash before them.

Elsewhere...

A man in white was wandering a black and white void, smiling as he came across 12 glows of light. The man pulls out a tiny black orb, with black energy that leeches onto his fingers. The orb glows brightly, as the 12 lights were enveloped by the light. The soon took shape, all of them possessing black hooded cowls. Even their faces were covered by the darkness of their hoods.

"What? Where am I? Who am I?" The front one spoke, trying to understand who he was and how he came to be.

"You are Xemnas; a forgotten soul destroyed by a holy force some odd years ago." The man before him speaks. "What doesn't matter to you is your past. What does is what will happen to you; You shall all become reborn and made into living humans who can reek havoc like you always have."

"...Xemnas...I remember now..." He muses, trying to recall that name. The others look at one another to try and understand the situation, then mumble how they came to have died and were .

"You are an elite organization named by the number of your members that was destroyed by a powerful weapon long since forgotten. If you wish to live again with real bodies and hearts, then follow me." The man then pockets the orb and flicks his fingers. As he does a portal behind him opens up.

Before he steps inside he turns to the others and says, "Well? Do you accept or not?"

"...what is it you want in exchange?" Someone else beside Xemnas says.

"I do not require anything from you. Once I give you your bodies you'll be free from me and this world." The man then walks inside the portal, allowing the others to follow.

While some were suspicious, they indeed follow the man. The third closest one next says, "What is your name?"

"...Aizen Sousuke."

Another Elsewhere Ten Minutes Later...

"And so with this artificial body you'll be able to make a human form which can allow you to safely live on as real mortals." Aizen says, standing beside twelve mechanical bodies. Each skeletal shaped machine is stacked inside a punch-out thingy with the words 'build' over top and a pentacle beside it.

The twelve in black were suspicious, and still are. Call it intuition or instinct but none of them were purely sure that those bodies would make good bodies for them.

"Hm...Aizen was it?" Xemnas begins, removing his hood to reveal a dark skin colored man with white-silvery hair and black streaks. His black and red eyes stare at both Aizen and the body.

"Can you really expect me to believe this body will work for us? Can it really bring us to life?" He asks, just as the others remove their hoods. It is here that all but one of them was shown to be male.

"...Try it then. If you don't like it then exit the body...I'm sure you'll be surprised by the works of our leader..." Aizen's eyes then wander off behind the twelve, looking dead at the figure behind them whose presence and body was hidden behind the darkness of the room.

One of them with black combed hair and an eye patch steps up, then walks towards the first skeleton machine. "Heh. I'll do it. As long as I don't have to go back to that place!"

"...Xigbar..." Xemnas looks at the man, as he suddenly surrounds himself with a dark aura and vanishes. The same skeleton he was facing begins to move on its own, as the pentacle disappears and its eyes underneath the helmet glow blood red.

Soon the skeleton begins to grow flesh and the same black cowl everyone else was wearing. The face then begins to turn back into Xigbar's, resembling a complete transfusion.

"It worked! I'm alive again!" Xigbar comments, as everyone but Xemnas and a few were exited by how truthful Aizen's word was. After stepping down to everyone's level, Xigbar then places his hand over where his heart should be, and feels a beat taking place.

'A heart...A real working heart!' Soon the others walk over to the skeletons and enter in it, until only Xemnas was left without.

"Still don't trust me..." Aizen asks the final member. Xemnas glares back at Aizen and smiles.

'...why do I get the feeling its a trick?' Xemnas walks towards the last one, and assimilates himself with it.

Xemnas then tries it out, testing his reflexes and body motions. "..That's interesting...It seems I mislead you Aizen. You really did well on making us alive again, and with hearts this time..."

A sinister laugh could be heard echoing around the entire building. Of course this brought every ones attention. Aizen only makes a smirk and leaves, walking to the nearest door and exiting.

Xemnas then discovers something was wrong and reaches out to grab Aizen's shoulder. But his hand is stopped by the hand of another. Xemnas turns to face whoever grabbed him and tenses in accordance to the man's appearance; that of a corpulent smiling top hat wearer.

"Now, now, Xemnas. You wouldn't be happening to attack Aizen-pon now would you?" He says, his teeth never parting while talking.

"Who...are you?" Xemnas pulls his arm back and extends a bar of red light from the same hand. The others take this as a hint to brandish weapons of their own, until a brain-scrambling sensation overwhelms them with pain. The eleven others fall to the ground, including Xigbar, gripping their skulls in pain.

"What's happening!?"

"My head...hurts..."

"It...was a...trap..."

Those were just some of the words that they spelt out. Xemnas stares dead at the man before him, then points his sword at them just as Aizen leaves.

"What kinda trick...are you planning?" The grinning man chuckles sneeringly, backing away and grabbing an umbrella with a pumpkin head.

"And like that, you're all mine...this is the life you've been searching for Xemnas...a life of servitude as a cute little Akuma."

"Never!" Xemnas flings his free hand up to face the Earl, as a blast of red light was fired from his hand. It hits Earl dead on target and collects dust up to cloud his vision.

As the smoke goes away, the Millennium Earl is shown to be completely fine. The attack didn't even cause him to lose his smile. The Earl chuckles, saying, "Now, now. You really believe a Nobody could hurt me..."

Hakurei

"OMOSHIRO!!" Luffy screams with sparkles in his eyes. He is currently in the middle of a town on top of a building. He and the others wander into town.

"What's with that guy?" Ichigo says, looking up at the screaming rubber man with falling sweat.

"Heh. This place is no better than my own village. He probably has such a degrading home town..." This time Inuyasha was speaking.

"..I have a feeling that Luffy-san will get into trouble this way-" Allen begins, but stops talking when he gasps. Allen then looks ahead, just as his eye glows black with red swirl. In front of the eye was something that resembles a cogwheel monocle with a secondary smaller one on the side.

Both Ichigo and Inuyasha freak out when they saw the eye change. Ichigo then runs up to him. "Hey Allen, you alright?"

"Yeah, what's with your eye?" Inuyasha then asks this question, looking over the monocle. Allen looks down at the others.

"In front of us..." Allen says, pointing before them at two people walking towards them.

"They're Akuma!" Suddenly the two begin to fight around, suddenly morphing their bodies into grotesque beings. Luffy gazes on in amazement with stars in his eyes while the two sword-wielders pale in disgust at the shift-shaping creatures before them.

The first one turns into a bat-like monster with arms and white hair. The second resembles a werewolf. Each one has some sort of marking on their bodies; it was a red heart but with black stripes and a black outline. This surprises Allen though.

'There's...something different...about these Akuma. The suffering souls are there, but...' Allen was staring at the two Akuma.

Through his right eye he saw everything the others did in a world of light. Through his left eye the coloring was reversed and a disfigured spirit cloaked in purple flames was floating above the demon, as if coming out from them exactly. The souls also had black flames right where their hearts would be, and surprisingly were in the shape of hearts.

"M-Monsters!!" The townsfolk seem to have become frightened by the demons appearing. Without a hesitation they run off away from the group screaming.

Inuyasha draws Tessaiga, automatically turning it into a fang upon removing it from the scabbard. "So, you must be the demons sent to come after us. Fine by me; I'll just cut you down!"

"...Are they really..." Allen holds his left arm before him, as the cross within his hand begins to glow brightly.

Luffy soon discovers the severity of the situation and leaps from where he stood. Coming up right above the Akuma his fists clench tight and gets ready to fight.

"Gomu Gomu no-" The others notice Luffy appearing above the Akuma. "-Gatling Gun!!" His fists come flying after the demons, pounding into him with a fierce strength. The punches though didn't seem to hurt them that much as it only pushed then down to the ground.

Luffy's fists snap back to his body just as he lands back with the others. "Oi, were those the monsters whose asses we have to kick?"

"Uh...I'm pretty sure there are allot more than them...but yes." Ichigo comments, placing his hand on his sword's hilt.

Allen looks back at the Akuma and tenses, his arm still glowing by the cross. The Akuma each rise up, having not been hurt at all by Luffy's attacks. "Did you really think...that those pathetic punches could hurt an Akuma?!"

"Damn! It didn't work!" Luffy then brings his fist up to pound them in into pieces. "Gomu Gomu-"

Allen's left arm grabs onto Luffy's brought up fist. Straw Hat looks back at Allen. "Hey, what are you-"

"Luffy-san, you cannot win. An Akuma can only be destroyed and saved by Innocence or a Zanpaku-toh. There is no way even a rubber man could kill them." Allen steps in front of the demons and gets ready for battle. Just as his arm was about to transform Ichigo and Inuyasha step up front.

"Ichigo...Inuyasha..." Allen becomes shocked to see these two coming up to fight instead.

"If Gomu can't take care of the Akuma and the Heartless then he'll just be a burden right?" Inuyasha says, holding Tessaiga before the werewolf.

Ichigo pulls Zangetsu from his back and holds it in front of the bat Akuma. As he does the blade unravels from its cloth hanging on the end of the hilt. "...all we have to do is destroy them right?"

"You? Destroy us?" The bat laughs, then flaps his wings and levitates into the air. The werewolf made a howling roar into the air and extends his claws.

"You'll have a better chance in hell taking me down, Shinigami!" The wolf Akuma disappears in a flash, appearing throughout the area as a flash of light.

"Like hell we'll lose to you!" Inuyasha jumps on a building and chases after the bat while Ichigo uses Shunpou to hunt the werewolf.

"Let me at them!! I'll clobber those bastards!!" Luffy yells as he tries to chase after the Akuma. Of course Allen continues to hold him back with white webbing made from the cowl he is wearing. It seems Allen has released his Anti Akuma Weapon.

"Luffy-san, you're no match for Akuma or the Heartless." Luffy was still squirming out and trying to escape the sticky threads of Allen's weapon.

"Stop calling me Luffy-san! I wanna fight!"

"Even if you could destroy them the soul inside of the Akuma would be destroyed as well and there is no way they could be saved." Allen explains to him, hoping meat-for-brains would understand.

Luffy scrambles around for a bit, until his words begin to sink into his head. "Oh. That's right."

"Thank you for understanding..."

Luffy then pounds his fists together. "I'll just knock them out and let you finish them off."

"YOU'RE MISSING THE POINT ENTIRELY!!"

"Kaze no Kizu!" Inuyasha heaves his sword up into the air, then slashes it down. This releases a golden beam directly at the bat Akuma.

"Like an attack full of nothing but power can touch a level two!" The bat flies away from the assault, having the Kaze no Kizu disappear into the sky. At the same time it releases a supersonic beam towards Inuyasha.

The dog hanyou leaps across the buildings around him, dodging and avoiding each ray that would strike him.

"Gehehehe-ha! What's the matter, Shinigami? Can't hit what you can't catch?!" The werewolf taunts Ichigo as he runs circles around the Representative. Ichigo holds his sword up before him to try and block the strikes made for him, but a few continue to slash at his cheek.

'Damn...Shunpou won't catch him, and it's too early for me to use the mask.' Ichigo tries to think up of a way to catch the wolf while running or off guard, but the only thing he could think of is something a little too early. 'No! I don't need Bankai yet...I'll win without it!'

"Over here!" The wolf comes up by Ichigo's right, bearing his claws and fangs at him. Ichigo catches his movements and swings Zangetsu to intercept and cut him in half.

But the wolf dodges the swing and leaps over Ichigo, leaving another scratch on his forehead. "Too slow!"

His eyes continue to lock onto the werewolf, watching him run by him and looking for an opening. "It's useless! No matter what you do you cannot surpass my wolf speed!"

"Perish!" The bat fires another blast of energy at Inuyasha, to which he leaps away from.

'I can't spot a swirl of demonic aura coming from this thing! Even if it's not a real demon it should possess...' Inuyasha continues to watch the bat, looking around it for wherever he needs to cut it, but doesn't find a single spot to look for. It isn't until the latest attack it begins to fire that Inuyasha spots a place to cut at him.

'There it is!' The bat demon fires an attack upon Inuyasha, who jumps up at it and slashes his Tessaiga at.

"Bakuryuha!!(Explosive Dragon Wave)" The devastating slash releases a tornado of energy similar to that of the Kaze no Kizu, which swirls around the demon's attack and absorbs. The twisters fly straight at the bat at full speed, piercing through and tearing the machine to shreds.

As the demon dies away, Allen catches the soul inside of the demon being released from chains attaching it to the machine and flying off into heaven as a glowing heart.

"I've got you!!" The demon wolf screams, flying dead at the Shinigami. Ichigo's left hand rises up and grips onto the wolf's claw, just as it pierces into his sides.

The demon is shocked to find Ichigo taking the blow, until Zangetsu comes up and chops his head off. The werewolf Akuma's head then dissolves away just as its body explodes. The soul inside is set free and flies into heaven; in the form of a glowing heart.

"What were those things?" Inuyasha sheaths Tessaiga away, then joins the others. Ichigo wraps Zangetsu up and hoists it on his back as he joins his comrades.

Allen releases Luffy from his Crown Belt ability and turns to face the others. Luffy brushes his clothes of dust and looks at Allen. "So those were the demons you mentioned before...Akuma?"

"Mm. Akuma are weapons created by the Earl; born of a fusion of machines, a soul and the darkness of human hearts." Inuyasha joins them just as Allen begins his explanation. "Akuma evolve by how much they kill human. What we just faced were level 2."

"So this Earl steals the souls of the dead and manufactures them as weapons?" Ichigo says as he rejoins them. His hands were gripping intensively by how disgusted he was from the man's cruel way of using people. "That's...just wrong! How can he just do that?"

"...he doesn't; we do." This causes Ichigo to look up at Allen, bringing him out of the boiling rage he was emitting.

"The Earl takes advantage of a terrible tragedy that happens to someone, most likely the death of a loved one, and uses the sadness of one closest to that person to provoke them into crying out the fallen name. That's all he needs in order to capture a soul and bring them back; as well as having the new Akuma killing the human who brought them to life and forcing the person to wear their skin as clothes."

Inuyasha, Luffy and Ichigo grow angry by the Earl's way of toying with people. To Inuyasha he was no better than Naraku. "This is why I devoted my life to saving the Akuma; to make amends for my father, to save them, and to stop him."

"...whoa. That's intense..." Luffy comments, then notices Luffy's change in appearance. "Hey, when did you get a cape?"

"It's a cowl." Ichigo corrects, then notices it as well. "Hey wait, how did you get that anyway?"

"It's my Anti Akuma Weapon; Crown Clown. It turns into this cowl and claw so I can cleanse the Akuma's souls." Allen says, then realizes how quickly the atmosphere and topic has changed.

"Wait, wasn't we just talkin-"

"Hey, you four!" The townsfolk call out to them, trying to understand what was going on.

Elsewhere Again...

"Die!" Xemnas flies towards the Earl, who was standing on the tip of a pedestal on a tower. Xemnas' light saber arm swings at the Earl, who leans back to dodge the attack without haste or harm. The Earl then flips in the air until successfully landing on the ground on one foot.

"How foolish. You really believe such pathetic methods can even scratch me." Earl continues to taunt Xemnas' abilities, smiling that big grin of his ever more. Xemnas then summons orbs of light to appear around the Earl, surrounding him from escape. All the lights fly towards the Earl, creating an explosion on contact.

"Finally...it's over." Xemnas says, landing before where the Earl was. But as he peeks into the smog he pales ever more when he realizes that the smiling teeth and glasses were still there.

"But how!?" Xemnas draws two light sabers this time, and rushes into the smoke. He was determined to sever any ties he might have with this fat man.

"How cute; my precious Akuma still hasn't realized he cannot surpass his master..." The smoke around the Earl dissipates away, as the umbrella begins to jerk around.

"Earl-sama! We shouldn't be fooling around! Those humans will be coming here for us-Lero!" The umbrella shouts, trying to get out of Xemnas' path of destruction. But one look from the Earl and Lero calms down.

Xemnas makes an X slash with his swords, ready to cleave the Earl into four. Hakushaku on the other hand releases Lero to his side. as the hilt of the umbrella becomes that of the hilt of a sword.

The Earl draws the hilt, as a sword comes out from the umbrella. This sword resembles a massive zweinhander with a large blast cross emblazoned on it. The Earl swings his sword with one hand at Xemnas, making a clean swipe through the sabers and Xemnas. The light blades instantly disperse into tiny particles of light and the top half of Xemnas' body was cleaved in two.

Xemnas then explodes upon destruction, as his soul is destroyed by the dark matter within him. The Earl throws his sword into the air while laughing victoriously, then jumps on it and rides the sword like a surfboard back up to the building he came from.

"As expected from Earl. He really is capable of killing humanity." Naraku says as he descends to the city below. Accompanying him was Enel on top of a ball. "Of course that wouldn't be fun now, would it Enelgy?"

"Enel. Maggots like you should be respectful to God." Enel states, swinging his pole around. He turns to his left to notice that one of the newly made Akuma-Nobodies was running away, this one having red hair.

"Look at this; one of his troublesome tools is fleeing for his life." Enel then looks up to Naraku, who levitates away.

"Do what you wish." Enel grins at Naraku's generosity. Of course the Earl wouldn't mind considering he helped make the damn skeletons ever since that whole 'Noah's Ark' tragedy.

"I shall have this worm bow down before God's feet." Enel raises his left hand into the air, having lightning transform his entire hand. A cluster ball of electricity collects in the sky, gaining the attention of the Earl as he flew into the sky.

"El Thor!(Norse God of Thunder, also from Marvel Comics)" The lightning shoots down at the runaway man, striking where he was like a tremendous stream of thunder.

The attack lit up the skies, flashing and brightening the entire area around them. When the light died out Enel's hand reverts to normal and nothing was left from the attack except dark fumes emitting from below. "Hm...it seems I destroyed him."

"Now, now, Enel. Is that a way to treat other people's toys?" Earl says as his sword takes him up to 'God'. Enel chuckles ever so slightly, taking his attention away from him.

"Earl, those brats you mentioned coming for us...one of them is my target...there is something I request from you to help silence his defiance..."

Hakurei...

"NIKU!!" Luffy is currently gorging himself with food, devouring any and all types of meat that was laid before him. Mugiwara and the others are now standing in a giant ball room eating plenty of food. Allen was consuming more than his own share while the others were casually eating either soba or rice.

People from within the village were standing before them awaiting explanations.

"So, what are we suppose to be looking for?" Inuyasha asks Allen, who stops eating in order to answer.

"I don't know. I think Kami mentioned something about a 'Keyhole' and locking it." Allen replies, thinking about what Kami told him before they left.

"Keyhole? What the heck are they talking about?" Ichigo was just as confused as them, seeing as no one knew what Kami meant by a Keyhole.

"Kami mentioned that the Heartless are after the hearts of all things; people, demons, even worlds. I think we have to find some place in this world where the Heartless and Akuma will gather to destroy it." Allen says, finishing a stick of mitarashi dango.

"...and how are we gonna stop it?" Inuyasha asks the white haired boy, reaching for a piece of meat. But Luffy snatches it away. "Oi! Give that back!!"

"Nub Vbb!(No way)"

"...those Akuma back there were different from the ones I've faced. It was like they were cloaked by the presence of some other evil..." Ichigo turns back to Allen as he talks, listening intently to his words.

"My left eye can see the suffering souls inside the Akuma, and there was something wrong about these Akuma; they had black hearts within them." Allen mentions, remembering the gruesome sight of the Akuma's souls.

"Black hearts...so could these things be Heartless?"

"...Kami did say Heartless were made by the Earl. I guess my eye can also see the suffering hearts of the He-" Allen then swallows a dumpling whole, but it was too big to go down and it ended up stuck in his throat. His face turns blue due to this, leading Ichigo to stare in confusion.

"The He-? Don't you mean the Heartless?" Ichigo asks him, as Allen tries his best to try and swallow the dumpling. He drinks down some water and he's able to breath again.

"...I thought...I was gonna die..." Allen murmurs as he tries to breath calmly again.

"That's what you get for eating so damn fast..." Ichigo comments, believing Allen to be stupid for eating large quantities of food at once. Unlike Luffy the Exorcist can't stretch his neck for extra food. Inuyasha finally catches Luffy and is currently stretching his cheeks to punish the greedy glutton.

With things going like this, will they really be okay?

Black Order...

"Allen-kun! Allen-kun!" Lenalee calls out, searching for someone she knows by that name. She was running through the halls of the Black Order looking for him.

She comes upon a room littered with paper and enters in, recognizing the familiar pose of her older brother and a line of guys in white carrying large piles of paper. "Nii-san, have you seen Allen-kun?"

Unfortunately for her, her brother is fast asleep on the table at the far end of the line. Reever turns to face her. "Your brother is...well he's just out of it."

"Oh. I see." Lenalee understands that her brother is sleeping again, and like always no amount of pounding and screaming would wake him up.

"Lenalee..." Reever then hands his stack over to another person, leaving the person to fall backwards. "Your legs can move now right?"

Lenalee nods. "Of course. I'm still a bit uneasy over my Innocence bonding with me, but I'm okay. But Reever, have you seen Allen-kun?"

"..Allen?" Reever ponders over the last time he saw the white haired boy.

"If it's Allen you're looking for then try his room. He went there after another fight with Kanda." Someone helping up the fallen scientist says, remembering the latest quarrel between the British and the Japanese Exorcist. Lenalee turns towards him.

"I already checked there. He wasn't there. I also looked in the mess hall and throughout the entire building." Lenalee says to him.

Reever then comes up with a suggestion. "Why don't you look for Lavi or Timcanpy? They might know."

"...sure." Lenalee then walks out the room and heads down the hall.

Back inside the others get back in line to give Komui his work for the day. Of course a sleeping man wouldn't do a damn thing, so Reever cuts in line and comes up to his hearing zone.

He then whispers, "Oi, Chief Inspector. I heard something very interesting today; supposedly someone very close to Lenalee and her are about to get married..."

"LENALEE!! HOW CAN YOU ABANDON YOUR OLDER BROTHER?!" could be heard screaming throughout the Order that very second. It was amazing how big his lung capacity is.

Back with Lenalee she was walking down the halls continuing to look for Allen. Ever since she had that dream she was fearful of what could happen to him in the future and with the events that have happened lately including the attack at HQ she was scared that the Earl would come for him again.

"Allen-kun..." She whispers to herself, passing by the people in her way in search of him. She soon comes upon a floating yellow ball with wings and a tail. It also has a cross in front of its face.

"Timcanpy...have you seen Allen-kun?" She asks the golem, as it points behind her.

Lenalee turns around and sees a little girl standing behind her. Lenalee is shocked to find that a little girl like her is inside the Black Order.

"Uh, who are you-"

"You're the girl Allen has feelings for right?" At this Lenalee widens her eyes in shock, and blushes at labeling Allen for liking her.

"You know where Allen-kun is? Where is he?!" She asks the child. The little girl smiles at the green haired Exorcist, admiring her short hair that makes her look boyish for a second.

"Allen is in space looking for Hakushaku with Inuyasha, Luffy and Ichigo. Even I won't know when they'll come back..." Lenalee's blush fades upon hearing that. She bends down to the girl and looks her in the eye.

"Please tell me; how do you know where Allen-kun is...what is he doing right now?" She asks the child, looking into her eyes as if trying to peer into her soul.

The child then closes her eyes, leaving them like that for a few seconds. After a while she opens them and says, "Allen is choking on a dumpling right now."

'That sounds like Allen-kun...' Lenalee could feel sweat coming down the back of her head.

"Him and the others are looking for the Keyhole to try and seal it away." She says, then points behind Lenalee. She turns her head around for a sec only to see no one there. Returning her attention back to the child she soon discovers that she was gone.

"Wh-where did she go?"

Allen, Inuyasha, Luffy and Ichigo can find the Keyhole, but just tracking it is one thing; if they want to lure out Hakushaku and his henchmen Luffy needs to bring out his hidden powers to seal the Keyhole and lead to their next path...

Kenshin: That was a good chapter. I hope it gets us more views. You think we could get a better name than Anime Hearts?

Haou: Well let's ask the readers. After all they can ask us questions so they can make suggestions as well.
