Chapter: V. Fear & Suspicion
Author: Camudekyu
Rating: M, for subsequent chapters
Pairing: Lenalee/Lavi
Length: 5 pages
Warnings: No spoilers. Some blasphemy.
Summary: When a series of bizarre events prompts the Black Order to dispatch exorcists, Lenalee and Lavi find that there is more going on in this small village on Malta than anyone could have expected. To make matters worse, the truth is going to hit just a touch too close to home for our Bookman cum Exorcist.
A/N: To hear some really beautiful Maltese, go here and skip to about 1:14. Also, when Lavi says his Arabic is a hodgepodge, he's not kidding. Um, and because the anachronism police have definitely busted me in the past, I'll go ahead and own up to the fact that the first lobotomies--if you can actually call them that--were performed in 1888, many years after this story is ostensibly set. You'll know what I'm talking about when you get there.
