Welcome to my new crossover "For Love or Peace" (though the title might change). This is a little side project of mine that i'm going to work on while writing "A Pure Heart," which is also an InuyashaXSoul Eater Crossover. I really hope you enjoy it! Please review so I know what you think!
Disclaimer (in effect for whole story): I do not own Inuyasha, Soul Eater or their characters. I do however, own the plot line of this story because it follows neither anime nor manga of either series.
For Love or Peace
Chapter 1: A New Mission
My name is Death the Kid. Son of Shinigami and top student at Shibusen… or at least I would be if I could even write my name on a test. What kind of letter is 'K' anyways? It is unevenly spaced with the rest of my name and is therefore asymmetrical!
If you couldn't guess, symmetry is my aesthetic; what I live for. Without it, the world cannot have balance. In order to achieve said balance, I work as a meister with my weapons, Liz and Patty, collecting two Kishin eggs at a time. (One would make everything asymmetrical!)
The Thompson Sisters and I began our daily walk to the academy, I walking two steps ahead of them as usual. It would have been a perfect walk too, if it hadn't been for an annoying, blue-haired ninja assassin making his grand entrance atop the long staircase of Shibusen.
"Prepare yourself mortals, for I, the Great Black Star, will be the one to surpass God himself! No mere mortal shall get in my way! Yahoo!" He shouted obnoxiously. I merely rolled my eyes and scowled, doing my best to ignore his typical behaviour by making my way to class as quickly as possible.
As I entered the doors of the crescent moon classroom, I noticed a pig-tailed meister and her white-haired weapon sitting alone in their seats. Maka-chan was reading a book. I swear she has thousands of those hiding somewhere around here. Soul-kun, on the other hand was, as usual, taking this quiet opportunity to nap, though everyone knew he was just going to sleep through Stein-hakasei's lesson.
I took my seat beside them with Liz on my left and Patty on my right, awaiting the start of the lesson.
"So, Kid-kun," Maka-chan began. Kid is a sort of nickname of mine I suppose. Liz unintentionally gave it to me a while back and it stuck. "Did you finish your homework assignment?"
Homework… Assignment?
Shit. I knew I was forgetting something. No matter, at least I didn't forget to fold the toilet paper properly like I had originally thought.
"Uh… yes, of course!" I said, lying through my teeth.
"But Kid! You never did it. How could you have done it but not done it at the same time?" Patty asked me in her usual innocent and childish voice.
Damn it, Patty!
Before Maka-chan could say anything, or Maka-chop me for that matter, the rest of the students began to pile in along with Stein-hakasei, much to my relief. I have always thought of him as odd. Sure he is very intelligent and was a great aid in Kishin Asura's defeat, but I still felt rather uneasy when it came to him and his dissections.
"Now class, before I begin today dissect-I mean… lesson: Kid, Shinigami-sama wishes to speak with you in the Death Room," He said. "Liz and Patty, you two as well."
I nodded and stood up with the girls, leaving the classroom. What could chichiue want so early? Though… he did call Liz and Patty as well, so odds are that it's a mission.
The next thing I knew, after being lost in my own thoughts, I was standing in front of my father.
"Heya! Hiya! How's it goin' Kiddo?" He asked me.
"I'm fine, chichiue. You called me, correct?"
"Yes… I have a new assignment for you."
"Hurray!" I heard Patty cheer. "Is it with the giraffes this time? Like you promised?"
"I'm afraid not, my dear. Maybe next time."
Patty frowned, sticking out her bottom lip, making her look like even more of a child than she already did. Honestly, that girl needs to grow up a little.
"No, your assignment will take place in Tokyo, Japan, at the Higurashi Shrine. Within that shrine is the Bone-Eater's well; said to be the link between this era and Feudal Japan," He explained.
"And this causes a problem?" I questioned. I honestly didn't see the issue in having a time-travelling well that was most likely only a rumour anyways.
"Yes it does. I am afraid that is any Kishin or evil souls were to discover this; the possibilities of what they could do to our world are endless. Time itself would be completely off balance. In order to prevent this from happening, I need you to seal it off from the world."
"And how do you propose I do that?"
"Hmm… you will require the assistance of one of the shrine keepers. This girl is a very powerful priestess, and one of the few who know of the well's power, using it frequently herself."
"Thank you, chichiue. I shall leave right away," I responded, bowing my head in respect then turning to leave.
"Just one moment, Kiddo! You don't even know the girl's name!"
Right. Name. Damn it.
"Sorry, what is it?" I asked.
"Her name is Kagome Higurashi."
Question: Am I spelling -hakasei right? I honestly have no idea.
