Chapter 1: The announcement
*It's afternoon on the school grounds of the DWMA and Death the kid is about to make an announcement to the group*
"So, everyone, since my birthday happens to be coming up in a few weeks, I want you guys to
know that I'm throwing a huge party at Death Manor." Kid says as he looks around at his group of friends.
Liz was busy painting her nails and didn't seem to be paying any attention to her eccentric meister, Patty as usual was drawing some kind of animal that she insisted was a Giraffe. Maka was absorbed in her textbook and Soul was sitting next to her half asleep, while Black star was finishing his afternoon workout as Tsubaki was packing up the lunch she had made everyone.
Black star laughs as he finishes his set of pushups, "Dude seriously? How lame, a big guy like me doesn't go to lame parties. Unless, there's going to be some major food involved."
"Black star how rude, besides Kid's your friend. Don't tell me the only reason you'd go is just for the food." Tsubaki says as she rolls her eyes and laughs at her uncontrollable meister.
Maka looked up from the book that she had been absorbed with for the last half hour. "Yea, come on Black star, besides after all these battles going on lately I think a party sounds like fun." Her green eyes turned to the person sprawled out next to her on the grass. "Don't you think so, Soul?"
The red eyed weapon rolled his eyes, "Come on Maka, you know I don't enjoy dancing after the last party you dragged me to. Besides, the only reason I'm even thinking of going is to check out the girls." Soul grinned across the group as Black star reached across the circle to give his friend a high five.
"Dude, I can't believe I didn't think about that. Girls and food? No way a star like me is going to be missing from an event this big."
Kid laughs as Tsubaki glares at Black star and Maka just rolls her eyes, "As I plan on making this the biggest party of the year, I can guarantee the high quality of both ladies and excellent cuisine. However, to make it even more awesome I've decided to Host a sort of contest."
Patty looked up at Kid from her drawing of a Giraffe, "Oooh what kind of contest Kid? Is it a costume contest! I call dressing up as a Panda Bear!" she giggles as the rest of the group just stares at her.
"Seriously Kid, what kind of contest? Don't tell me this is some kind of who-can-arrange-my-room most symmetrical or something lame like that." Liz says while she finishes painting her nails as the rest of the group laughs at the thought of Kid allowing another person to organize his room.
"Why would I do something like that Liz? As if my room is anything less then perfectly symmetrical...unless...i think the pillows on my bed are off balance..."
Hey Kid, just tell us already before you start having a breakdown." Soul said, impatient with Kid's weird obsession with symmetrical balance, knowing that if Kid ever stepped foot in his black hole of a room he'd probably pass out from the massive confusion of clothes, shoes and forgotten homework.
"Er, yes as I was saying." Kid states before glaring at Liz. "I'm going to have a Band competition, students of groups either three or four have to write and perform a song live to the audience. Afterward, the group with the most applause wins a prize of sorts."
Soul and Black Star roll their eyes as Maka, Tsubaki, Liz and Patty start giggling with excitement.
"I wonder if Shadow will perform." Said Liz, who everyone knew had the biggest crush on Shadow Crawler, a two star miester. "I think I'm going to pass out just thinking about his beautiful self standing on stage and singing to me!" She exclaimed
"Oh please, Shadow is totally lame. He's no where near close to being the big star I'm going to be."
Liz growled, "Nobody asked YOU Black star!" as Patty tried to break up the argument between them about Shadow Crawler's star status.
"So Tsubaki, are you going to ask Black Star to be your date to Kid's party?" Whispered Maka as the group started heading back into town, while Liz and Black star's arguing acted as background noise to the girls conversation.
"I doubt he'll even understand what I mean, we've always gone to Kid's parties together but he doesn't get that I'd want to go as his official date and not just as his weapon partner." Tsubaki says as she glances up at her meister who was busy talking to Kid about what kind of food he would be having at the party.
"Why don't you just ask him up front?"
Tsubaki laughed, "I can't do that, I'd die from embarrassment before the words even came out of my mouth."
"Well, I guess we'll have to think of a plan then. First, maybe we could find you a really pretty dress in town. You know, if he see's you in something girly he might get the idea." Maka said thoughtfully.
"Excuse me, but your not seriously talking about going shopping without us did you?" Liz said as she jumped in between the two girls.
"Yayyyyyy shopping!" Patty exclaimed, "It'll be fun just us girls."
"Totally!" Maka and Tsubaki agreed
"Alright, when you guys start talking about all this girly stuff I know it's time for me to leave."
Soul exclaimed as he moved on ahead to catch up with the other guys. "Maka, It's your turn to make dinner anyway. It better not be peanut butter and jelly again."
"It's not my fault I had to study! Gezz Soul, maybe you shouldn't be so lazy." Maka claimed as she rolled her eyes.
After Soul walked away the other girls turned towards Maka in unison.
"Soo, Maka. How are you and Soul getting along lately?" Liz asked in an innocent tone
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"She wants to know if you've finally told him about your secret undying love for him!"
Squealed Patty before Liz and Tsubaki both hit her on the head
"Hahahaha oh wow guys, you've got to be kidding me. Soul is my weapon partner so of course we're close but there's no way in hell I'd see him like that." Maka exclaimed as she rolled her eyes. "He's messy and sarcastic, is always saying something about me being flat chested and on top of that he flirts with anything that walks by him."
Tsubaki, Liz and Patty all looked at each other.
"Yea, but that was like last year. Your telling me you haven't noticed at all how totally hot Soul is?" Liz asked
Patty chimed in, "I don't know about you but I'd want to be more then just weapon partners with Soul Evens." She started giggling as Tsubaki rolled her eyes at the bubbly weapon.
"Come on guys, stop teasing Maka. If she say's she doesn't like him then she doesn't. Besides we all know Maka is way to busy studying to even notice the male species." Tsubaki said in a teasing voice.
Maka laughs, "Exactly, now lets talk more about getting Black Star to notice you." she said as her eyes light up with laughter
"Ohhh yes!" Patty and Liz exclaimed as the girls entered their classroom.
"Good afternoon ladies, It's nice to know that you girls are in such a hurry for knowledge that you must have accidentally gotten lost on your way to my class." Professor Stein said as he glared at the girls.
Mumbling apologies, the girls quickly took their seats and waited untill Professor Stein began his lecture about proper dissection protocol before passing notes about Kid's party.
Are you guys sure about this? I have a bad feeling that I'm going to mess everything up between me and Black Star, I mean he's my meister. I don't want things to get weird..
Tsubaki passed the note to the others
Isn't that the point of caring about someone though? That you take the risk?
Maka wrote
Aw come on girl! Your a powerful weapon, this shouldn't be something that scares you
Besides, we all know that Black Star cares about you
Liz passed the note back to Tsubaki, but as Tsubaki pulled the paper back Patty suddenly reached over and grabbed the paper out of her hands
Remember when Black Star got beaten up after protecting you when you had to fight off your brother? He was bleeding like crazy but he never fought back so he could keep you safe. I think Black Star cares a lot more then you think but having to deal with all of his family being killed and being emotionally alone for most of his life, I bet it's hard for him to accept his feelings because he doesn't want to lose you..
The other girls stared openly at Patty. This bubbly weapon who was usually laughing, giggling or drawing pictures actually said something very emotional and true.
"You know...after you put it that way I can understand where you guys are coming from." Tsubaki sighed. "Alright I'll do it," she said "but first, dressing shopping."
"Now we're defiantly talking my language." Liz said and Patty agreed while Maka nodded
"What about Shadow?" Maka asked Liz, "Are you going to ask him to be your date?"
"I think I'd rather knock his socks off with how hot I'll look and make him realize I'm the only girl for him." Liz said with a wink "Much more exciting that way."
"I hope the poor guy knows what's coming for him." Maka laughed as the girls turned their attention back to the details of dress wear.
While they were whispering, Tsubaki took a moment to look at Maka who was giggling at something Patty had said
I don't think Shadow is the only one who's oblivious, oh well. Maybe this Party will make her realize that
However, Tsubaki couldn't know that over the next few weeks their group was about to dive into some serious drama.
