Odi: Hi! It's me again!
Merlin: Oh, hey Odi!
Allen: Why am I here with people I don't know, and strange technology?
Odi: Oh, Allen! You're in my fanfiction with Merlin!
Merlin: So you're actually typing a Merlin and D. Gray-Man fanfiction, than just writing one…
Odi: Yep! I found there is only one crossover fic with Merlin and D. Gray-Man, and it isn't even in English! Now who will do the disclaimer? How about… KANDA! He's a great enough character for me to put him here!
Kanda: Che. I'm here with a weird person, the Moyashi, and someone else that I don't know.
Odi: Just do the disclaimer Kanda.
Kanda: Fine. Oderin-Kuro-san does NOT and NEVER will own D. Gay-Man and/or Merlin. D. Gray-Man belongs to Hoshino Katsura, while Merlin belongs to BBC.
Allen: ENJOY!
OnO
Arthur prepared Camelot and all of his staff for the big ball. Merlin was washing his clothes and summoned the pianist as Arthur had ordered him to. "Allen, you know I want you to play something beautiful. I need something that will blow the other Kings', and Lords' minds. Do you have a song like that?"
"Sire, I think I have a song like that. But it's short, and the lyrics are in Japanese." Allen answered, "Do you mind if I sing them Milord?" "No, not at all, Allen, but I would like you to translate them the second time you play the song." Arthur responded distractedly. "Yes, Milord." Allen answered with a polite bow.
"Why couldn't you be more like Allen, Merlin?" Arthur asked mockingly. "It's simple, because Allen is a perfect gentleman, with a much sadder and depressing past. No one even knows everything Allen has been through, only the things he is willing and ready to tell us." Merlin answered cheerily, "But, I will say he is a wonderful piano player." "Hmmm… I wonder what song Allen has planned for us…. He is a rather new addition to our staff." Arthur pondered thoughtfully, "And why does it have Japanese lyrics?"
"Who knows? Maybe the song has special significance to Allen?" Merlin suggested with a careless shrug. "Then, why would he share it with us and all of guests, when he barely knows us and won't know most of the guests?" Arthur questioned thoughtfully. "Maybe you should ask Allen instead of just asking me questions I can't answer." Merlin sighed exasperated.
"Hmm… maybe…. But I'd rather not." Arthur said calmly, "A prince shouldn't care about the reason a pianist is playing a certain song." "Well, everything's ready for tonight, prat." Merlin said in approval, "I hope that at least this ball goes well. We never seem to get a break."
~That Night!~
Allen stepped forward and politely bowed to the guests. "This is our pianist, Allen Walker." Uther announced coldly. "He will play for us tonight, and it better be good, like he promised." He finished with a threat. "Trust me sire, I'm pretty good." Allen promised with a smile as he sat at the piano.

Allen finished the song with plenty of emotion. "Fine. The boy is as good as he claims to be." Uther grumbled. "T-that was amazing!" Merlin exclaimed in awe. "Yeah, he's is pretty good." Arthur admitted. "Good? That was beautiful!" Gwen whispered with tears in her eyes, "B-but, what did it mean?" Allen played a few more songs before he replayed the song with the English lyrics.
"It sounds like a lullaby." Merlin whispered softly. "It is." A teal haired girl said next to the young warlock, "I never thought he would play it in front of such a big crowd." "Do you know Allen?" Merlin asked her curiously. "Oh, I'm a friend of his. I'm Lenalee Lee." She explained with a gentle smile. "What's Allen really like?" Merlin asked in curiosity, "What happened to him, in his past?"
"Allen is as he acts with you guys, only when you truly get to know him, he is a bit warmer, he'll be more open with his feelings, extremely protective, and you'll realize how much of a martyr he really is." Lenalee said with a gentle smile as she talked about her friend. "If Allen didn't tell you about his past, we have no right to tell you anything." A red haired man stated calmly, "I also know Allen, and I know he'll tell people certain things when he feels they, and himself are both ready for it." "Che. Moyashi is that kind of person." A long haired man said coldly.
"Oh, these two are Lavi and Kanda. They both are friends of Allen as well." Lenalee explained calmly. "And don't mind Yuu-chan, he's always a mean person." Lavi said cheerily. "DON'T CALL ME THAT, BAKA USAGI!" Kanda shouted angrily pulling out his trusty sword, "Or I'll cut you with Mugen." "Come on you two, don't fight we're at a party, Allen is playing, and we're looking for Innocence." Lenalee sighed.
"Che. I don't care the Moyashi's playing or about said Moyashi." Kanda grunted. "Ah, Lenalee we already know that Allen is good at playing the piano, so why do we have to listen? Can't I just go back to sleep?" Lavi asked lazily. "No, Lavi, we're here to support Allen, find Innocence, and battle Akuma." Lenalee sighed in exasperation. "You're mean, Lenalee." Lavi groaned. "Oh! Guys! You came!" Allen called after he finished his performance and joined his friends. "Of course, we did, Allen-kun!" Lenalee called with a bright smile.
"Merlin, these are my friends, as I'm sure Lenalee already told you, they work where I used to work. Things are hectic so we are all here to find something, and prevent innocent people from being killed, and dragged into our war." Allen kindly said to the young warlock. "Oh, I see, Allen. What does this war happen to be about?" Merlin asked in curiosity. "Just protecting the world from someone who would like to see it, and all humans destroyed." Lavi answered offhandedly. "Is that so?" Arthur asked in suspicion, "Then, why are you here in Camelot, when you should be saving the world?"
"Well, there is an important weapon that might be hidden here. It is the only thing that can defeat our enemies' weapons, friends, and said enemy." Lenalee answered nervously. "We can't tell you too much more, because you aren't part of the Order." Allen sighed. "Che. We shouldn't even be explaining this stuff to you." Kanda grumbled. "So, Akuma? What are they?" Merlin asked quietly. "Akuma are human souls trapped in a machine body, forced to kill a loved one that brought them back, and are weapons to the Millennium Earl, our enemy." Allen explained tiredly as if he had done it many times before, and truth be told, he had.
"What about this Innocence? What the heck is that?!" Arthur demanded angrily. "Innocence is matter created by God to destroy Akuma and fight the Millennium Earl. Examples of Innocence are Kanda's sword, Allen's left arm, Lavi's Hammer and my Dark Boots." Lenalee sighed. "Such an elaborate lie, you people have created." Arthur snorted, "I doubt you have proof of such a wild tale." "If we go outside," Allen sighed, "I can transform my arm and prove it to you. And if there happen to be Akuma my eye should activate."
"Activate? What do you mean by that?!" Arthur demanded in confusion. "My left eye was cursed when I accidently turned my adopted father, Mana, into an Akuma. He cursed me before I destroyed him using my Innocence, actually, more accurately, my Innocence forced me to destroy him by taking over my left arm, and I couldn't stop it." Allen admitted quietly. "Oh… that really is sad." Merlin whispered. "My eye allows me to see the suffering souls of the Akuma, and that is how I can tell the difference between an Akuma and a normal human." Allen sighed sadly.
"It's a terrible thing, trust me you don't want to see the soul of an Akuma, I almost stopped eating for a while." Lavi admitted sheepishly, "I can't understand how Allen-chan can see it every day and not go insane." "You get used to it." Allen said softly, "And I realized how the ability could be useful to me as an Exorcist." "Oh? In what way is it useful? I mean if it can drive a person crazy, and might prevent you from sleeping it can't be a good thing." Arthur said questioningly.
"As I said, I can tell the differences from a human and an Akuma, I don't have to walk around thinking I can't trust anyone." Allen sighed softly, "All of the others have to think that way, so they wear their coats to attract the Akuma." "That would be a terrible way to live life." Merlin whispered. "I agree it would." Gwen said having come out of seemingly nowhere.
"GWEN! Where'd you c-come from we d-didn't know you w-were there?!" Arthur, Merlin, and Allen shouted in shock at their female friend. "Oh, I was just talking with Miranda pretty close by." Guinevere said with a quiet chuckle. Oh, okay then. Please don't surprise us like that again." Arthur said sheepishly. "I can't promise it won't happen again." Gwen laughed. "Right." Arthur grumbled.
That was when things started to get interesting, dangerous and everything started to go down hill…

Odi: Hey people! That's the end of this chapter. Can you guess what will happen, and who will make a special appearance?
Allen: Also, please tell us your opinions on this story. Then Oderin Kuro-san will know whether she should continue with the story or not.
Merlin: Reviews will also encourage updates, and Odi will feel more confident about her writing.
Odi: I do Not own the song Tsunaida te ni Kiss wo, also known as the 14th's song or The Musician. It belongs to its respective owner. The song also happens to be in the Manga D. Gray-Man so I suspect it belongs to Hoshino Katsura as well.
Allen: We hoped you enjoyed, and absolutely NO flames.
