RIIINNGGG! RIIINNGGG!

Giselle was jolted awake by the sound of her alarm clock and fell out of her bed. "Shit!" she swore as she scrambled to get up. Today was her first day at the DWMA. Giselle never heard of the Death Weapon Meister Academy until two weeks ago when her mother had mentioned it. She had gotten into an altercation with a girl at her old high school and during the fight, she caused the girl's hair to catch fire. When her mother learned of the incident, she decided to reveal to her daughter that she was a witch. She also told Giselle that she was also a meister, as she was, and that she also attended the DWMA. As soon as she received the acceptance letter, she was put on the first plane to Death City.

After getting out of the shower, Giselle put on a pair of skinny jeans, a red cami with a black blazer, and black boots. She opted to leave her long, black curls down. She looked at her reflection and smiled. At 17 years old, Giselle was the spitting image of her mother, a former model. They had the same medium brown complexion, the same curly black hair, and were of the same height. The only thing that set them apart were Giselle's bluish green eyes, courtesy of her father, whom she never met. Giselle didn't know much about her father, except that he was a "womanizing asshole", as her mother called him. She met him when she was 21, at the beginning of her modeling career, and they dated for a year before he split. Shortly after he dumped her, she found out she was pregnant. She decided to raise her child on her own, since she had no family to help her. Camille's parents disowned her when she refused to give the child up for adoption. Camille came from an affluent New Orleans family, and a child out of wedlock would have caused scandal. But she made sure her daughter was well taken care of, and never wanted for anything.

Giselle walked out the door of her posh apartment and headed to the DWMA. As she stood at the bottom of the staircase and looked up at the large building, she took a deep breath. Here goes nothing she thought as she walked up the stairs to the entrance. She took a moment to observe her surroundings. She looked around at the mass group of students interacting with one another and wondered how she would even fit in here.

"You must be the new student Father was telling me about." a voice said. Giselle turned around and was face to face with tall boy dressed in a black suit with a skull tie. She noticed that he had black hair with three white stripes on one side, and had golden yellow eyes.

"Y-yes. I am." Giselle said. The boy gave a small smile.

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Death the Kid." he said offering his hand, which Giselle shook.

"My name is Giselle. Giselle Beauregard." she replied, blushing slightly. He's kinda cute she thought. She noticed Kid was staring at her

"Perfect symmetry " he muttered. Giselle raised an eyebrow.

"You have to forgive our meister. He's a little nuts." Giselle looked up to see a tall girl with long strawberry blonde hair. Next to her was a shorter girl with short yellow hair. Both of them had blue eyes and were wearing matching outfits. "The name's Liz. This is my sister Patty." the taller one said.

"Hi!" said the younger sister waving.

"I love your outfit by the way." said Liz.

"Um, thanks you." said Giselle. Liz smiled.

"Now that we are have been properly acquainted, allow me to show you around." Kid said. Giselle simply nodded. As Kid showed her around the school, she began to feel more at ease. Maybe this won't be so bad after all she thought.

"So, you're really Lord Death's son?" she asked. Kid smiled.

"Yes. I was named after him. And when I'm older, I will take his place." he replied. "How do you like the school so far?"

"I think I will like it very much." Giselle said.

"I'm glad to hear that." Kid replied. As they walked, they were approached by a girl and a boy.

"Hey Kid. How's it going?" the girl asked. Turning to Giselle, she said "Hi. My name's Maka. You must be new here." Giselle looked at the girl. She was about her height, slender, and had ash blonde hair, which were in pigtails, and emerald green eyes. She then turned to the boy. He was tall, with snow white hair, and crimson eyes. This boy Giselle recognized immediately, as he was her best friend from childhood. "And this is my partner-"

"Soul?" Giselle asked surprised. Soul took a good look at Giselle, and suddenly, it hit him.

"Giselle?"
