The Hunt Begins (Dark Data)

[Yu Kanda]

[spoiler] This happens before the encounter, i asked Adam for permission. Encounter post will follow. [/spoiler]

Once more Kanda found himself in a familiar setting, the vastness of white started to hurt his eyes again. He was back in the Nexus, the fountain back to normal, his body healthy once more. It seems he was given another chance after his battle with Harbringer. He didn't feel any different from before, the power of omnilium was still flowing through his body. After observing his surroundings he couldn't see any signs of the battle, no corpses, no blood, no nothing.

The exorcist grabbed his communicator and immediately contacted headquarters and Commander Klaud, "Commander, this is General Kanda, can you hear me?"
His message was followed by a long static noise.


"Commander, this is General Kanda, come in commander."

"Kanda is that you?" Klaud's familiar voice soothed the worries Kanda was developing.

"Yes Commander, I've returned to the Nexus, however, there are no signs of the culprits or victims"

"That's because the incident took place months ago General. We were afraid Omni deemed you unworthy. Glad to hear we were wrong, welcome back to the land of the primes General."


It took Kanda a moment to comprehend the fact he was gone for months, while for him it only felt like mere moments. One moment he felt the life flowing away from his very soul, the next darkness. Until mere moments ago, when he once again woke up in the Nexus. It seems Omni wasn't done with him yet after all.

"Thank you Commander."


"Now, i need you to report back to the Pale Moors, one of our scouts will be there to escort you. Some strange things have been unfolding, several primes are already gathered, hurry general Kanda"

The exorcist sighed as he returned the communicator within his uniform. Even after death he wasn't allowed a break. With that thought lingering through his head he started his travel to the Pale moors gate.

************************************************************************************************************************************

The commander was right, a black order scout was already on the scene when the general arrived. The scout was still very young, he couldn't have been older than 14.
Kanda looked at the young man who was trying to remain out of sight, "Looks like the order is recruiting them younger each year hmm?"

He startled the black order employee who didn't notice Kanda coming up behind him. The panic in his eyes was proof for Kanda that this wasn't a well trained scout, it seems the black order has lowered the bar significantly.

"Apologies General, i didn't expect you here so quick."

"It's ok, show me where these primes are that the commander talked about."

The scout simply nodded before leading the way into the grim wilderness that is the Pale moors.


It was obvious to Kanda that even though he wasn't a skilled warrior, the scout was an excellent tracked. With ease he was finding his way through wasteland towards the primes. Kanda simply followed without much thought.


After a short trip the scout stopped behind a dead tree and nodded towards the distance, with a whispering voice he spoke, " there they are, the primes the commander told you about."

Kanda gazed towards the direction his scout motioned and noticed several individuals, "Thank you, return to your duties back at the base, I got it from here."

The young black order member nodded as he saw the General move towards the group.
