A/N: I'm sorry I havn't posted anything in so long! (not that anyone noticed, nobody reads these….. yeah but recently I have been into anime and such, particularly Soul Eater. This is my first Soul Eater fanfic! (please, no judging!) anyway, I DO NOT OWN SOUL EATER OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS AND SUCH. And if you are reading this, please, please comment! (side note: the characters of Min and Amaya are based on real people.)

Chapter 1: Crona

I walked out of Professor Stein's class, smiling. I was doing so well with my grades! My scores are the same as Ox's, and we're tied for second in the class! First was, of course, Maka. The awesome thing is, Maka, Ox and I are all friends, so we don't hate each other if we do better than the others. Of course, there is plenty of competition, but that can only be expected. Lost in thought, I started making my way toward lunch. I wonder what we are having…

On the way, I saw some large boys shoving around a smaller boy with pink hair. I stopped.

"What's with the dress? You a girl or something?" asked one of the big guys.

"No! Stop it!" said the guy with the pink hair. My eyes widened. I had to do something!

"HEY!" I yelled, running up to them. "Leave him alone!" I glared at the biggest boy.

"What'cha going to do about it, little girl?" He asked me. Now I was really angry. My hands balled up into fists. If only Amaya was here... But, being a weapon, I couldn't really do anything by myself.

"Hey!" yelled a voice behind me. I sighed in relief. Maka! The boy seemed to recognize her, too.

"Come on, let's get out of here," He said gruffly. Maka glared at their retreating backs, then turned worried eyes toward the guy with the pink hair.

"Are you okay, Crona?" Just then, Soul came running up behind her.

"Maka…wait…up." He was panting. Soul was usually pretty fast. How fast had Maka have to have run for Soul to be so out of breath?

"Yeah, I'm okay," said the guy, I guess his name was Crona. "Thanks Maka. And thanks…" He looked to me uncertainly.

"Min." I said. He blushed. Suddenly, a weird looking thing FREAKING POPPED OUT OF HIS BACK! I looked at Maka, wide eyed. She gave me a look that said 'Tell you later'. The weird guy sticking out of the boy's back started blabbering about lunch. This was definitely the weirdest situation I had been in all day. That included Professor Stein's dissection of the day. Maka and Crona headed for lunch. I looked to Soul, who was still behind me. He was looking at Maka arguing with the weird guy and smiling.

"Soul," I began. "What's going on?" He and I started walking.

"That guy, Crona, is the demon sword." I hadn't really heard much about that. It had been kind of an undercover mission, and nobody had told me about it. Not even Kid.

" How is the demon sword a person? And what is the thing sticking out of him?"

"Well… It's kind of a long story." Soul said.

"Well then. Thanks for sharing." I replied. He smiled. "Sorry! But I'm sure Maka will tell you. In detail. For HOURS. So be prepared." "Huh?"

We arrived at lunch. After I got my food, I sat at our table next to Amaya, as usual. "A, what do you know about Crona?" I asked.

"Not much," she replied. " I know that he's Maka's friend, and that he's the demon sword."

"What is that supposed to mean?"

She shrugged. "I dunno." I told her everything that had happened. "We can ask Maka about it tonight, if you want." She said when I had finished. By now lunch was pretty much over and I hadn't really eaten anything.

"Yeah, sure. Soul says she would tell us," Why hadn't I heard about Crona before? It seemed like Maka really cared about him.

"Hey, Black*Star offered to teach us how to use enchanted sword mode today." Amaya said, jolting me back to the present. I looked at her in surprise.

"I thought that enchanted sword mode was something only Tsubaki could use? You know, because of her brother?"

She shrugged. "Black*Star said it's possible you could have it too. I guess we'll find out. And," Her eyes brightened. "Kid might come too!" I giggled.

"I don't know, will you be able to concentrate with him there?"

She glared at me. "HE'S COMING."

"Okay, okay! You win!" I said, putting my hands up in surrender. She continued to glare. I couldn't take it. I had to laugh. Then Amaya broke down and laughed with me. Soon we were literally on the floor and we couldn't stop laughing. Soon it got really quiet in the lunch hall, and people were staring. I managed to calm down. I had to drag a still laughing Amaya out of the lunchroom. Once the door had closed behind us, I heard one word.

"Fool!" I turned, still dragging Amaya, to see a little white creature with a top hat, a cane, and a long nose. I stared at it. So did Amaya. It stared back. Then it started singing and dancing…

"Excalibur, Excalibur, From the United Kingdom, I'm looking for heaven, I'm going to California.."

I continued to just stare at it. I take back what I said earlier. THAT was the most awkward position of the day. Amaya stood up. She had stopped laughing. We turned and started walking away. It stopped singing. "My legend dates back to the twelfth century, you know!"

Later that day, Amaya and I met Black*Star in the wooded area behind the DWMA. He kept pacing and muttering to Tsubaki. I felt like we were in some kind of boot camp. I shared a glance with Amaya. Then, suddenly, he straightened and looked us straight in the eye. "MIN! AMAYA!"

"Yes sir!" said Amaya.

"Amaya-chan!" I hissed. She laughed. Black*star ignored her.

"Keep in mind that we have no idea if this will work. And don't even think of possibly being better than me. You're not! I shall surpass God!" He pointed at the sky.

"We know." said Tsubaki.

"Right. Where was I?"

"It might not work.." offered Amaya helpfully.

"Right! You might have inherited it, you might not have. Do you have any idea, Min? I shook my head.

My parents had left 'on important business' when I was really little. We didn't communicate much. I barely knew them. I had been raised by Shinigami-sama alongside Kid, here at the academy. In result of growing up here, I was pretty aware of the goings-on at DWMA. That's why I was so amazed that I didn't know anything about Crona. When she found out, Amaya had been really jealous. She'd had a thing for Kid from the beginning. About that… "Is Kid coming?" My random question took Black*Star by surprise.

"Umm… later. He's kinda busy. But that's totally off the subject!"

"Sorry, Black*star." He sighed.

"Anyways. We don't know if you can do it, but it's worth a try. It's a great weapon to have." "MIN!"

"Yes, sir!" I said. Tsubaki laughed. "hypocrite" muttered Amaya. I beamed at her. Black*star ignored us. Smart guy. Maybe he wasn't all talk… never mind. I was letting my imagination run away with me again. "Min, ninja sword mode!"

"Right!" I switched to ninja sword mode. "Now, concentrate. I want you to resonate souls." "We broke concentration.

"Do we have to?" Asked Amaya.

"But we still haven't gotten it down yet!" I complained.

"Just do it! If you are ever going to be as good as me –which you won't- then soul resonance will be the least of your problems!

"Fine!" Amaya and I said at the same time. We glanced at each other and started laughing. Black*Star sighed. This was going to be a long day.

After a few tries, we managed to resonate. Tsubaki took over.

"Just concentrate really, really hard." she said. "Min, search yourself. See if you feel anything. It's like changing modes except…darker...sort of." Suddenly I felt it. I knew exactly what she was talking about. There was no way to describe it.

"Min!" yelled Amaya. She felt it too.

"Right!" I concentrated really, really hard, like Tsubaki said. I focused all my energy. . . . . There! I did it! It didn't last long, though. Soon, we were both on the floor, me back in human form now, panting.

Tsubaki was so happy. "You did it! You did it!" Black*Star was doing a celebration dance. And jumping jacks.

"I did it! I, the great Black*Star, have taught my priceless secret to these worthless girls!"

"Gee, thanks a lot!" I said. Suddenly Kid rushed in, Liz and Patty at his heels. "What did I miss?"

That night, Amaya and I were brushing our teeth and talking about our day (It's a lot harder than it sounds-try it.)

Suddenly the door flew open and Soul fell in. " Help me!"

"Come on, Soul, I wanna play!" It was Blair. She was chasing after him, knocking everything over.

"Please!" He begged. It really was funny. I ran outside the bathroom and shut the door.

"Hey, Blair, there's some fish in the fridge!" I said, trying to distract her.

"Yum!" she ran towards the kitchen.

I went after her. She was halfway inside the refrigerator, looking for nonexistent fish . "Hey, Blair, I think you should move in with us. Me and Amaya, that is." "Why?" she asked. So you don't kill Soul, I thought. "Because we love you!" I said. "And," I grinned. "We have fish."

"No you don't!"

"Sure we do! but it's not in THAT fridge." I made a mental note to pick up fish at the market today.

"ummmmm...Okay!" she said. "I'll go get my stuff!" Once she was gone, Soul came in.

" Thanks, Min."

"Don't sweat it. I know she was bugging you. Besides, we don't mind, do we, Amaya?"

"What?" Amaya came in.

"Blair's moving in with us."

"YES!" she yelled. I laughed.

"Yep, I think she's okay with it. By the way, A, we were going to go ask Maka about that Crona guy…"

"Oh yeah!" said Amaya. "Let's go!"
