Soul, Maka, Black*Star, and Tsubaki were walking in the hall way, talking. "Hey, did you hear about the new student?" asked Soul. "You mean Dr. Stein's niece? Yeah." said Black*Star. "I can't wait to see her." said Tsubaki. "I wonder if she's a creep like Stein." said Soul. "Can't you say anything nice about someone?" said Maka. "Yeah, but not about Stein or your dad." Maka couldn't really say anything because she couldn't either. "She might be like Dr. Stein or she might be different. It depends on how close she is to him." she responded. Soul shugged. "We'll see."

Then Kid walked by. "Hey, did you guys see the new student down there? She's perfectly symmetrical, just as I hoped!" he screamed. "Aw damn. We were just talking about her. Let's go meet her." said Soul. They went down the hall to see Stein's niece. She had red hair and black skiny glasses. She had two small bolts in her ears that she always had to adjust to hear. She had stitches around her neck and wrists. She wore a gray shirt, a white lab coat that's smaller than Stein's, and red pants.

"Even the bolts and stitches are symmetrical!" Kid exclaimed. "Kid, get over it. She'll be A-symmetrical as soon as she has to hear something." snapped Soul. "What? Aw..." Kid whined. "Who's the guy in the black, Uncle Frankie?" she asked. " 'Uncle Frankie'?" everyone exclaimed, causing Stein to blush. "I told you not to call me that." he whimpered. "It's okay, Dr. Stein, we don't-" Maka stared, being interupted by Soul. "What kind of name is 'Frankie'? Hahaha! 'Frankie'! Hahaha!" Maka hit him with a book to shut him up. "I mean..um...that's cool." Soul moaned with the pain on his head. "As I was saying...we don't mind, Dr. Stein." Maka continued.

Stein shrugged. "Oh well. That's Death the Kid. He's Lord Death's son. Just call him Kid. Those are his weapons, Liz and Patty. This is Maka and her weapon, Soul. And this is Black*Star and his weapon, Tsubaki. Kids, this is my niece, Valenstein and her weapon, Ellenor." Valenstein walked to Kid. "It's nice to meet you. You too, Kid." Soul stared laughing when she walked away.

"What's so funny?" asked Kid. "Looks like Valenstein has the hots for you." Black*Star scowled. "No fair! Why does Kid get the attention all the time?" Soul shrugged. "Well...Kid is kind of cute." said Liz. Everyone turned and looked at her. "What? He is." Maka looked at Kid for a minute. "Actually...he kind of is." she remarked. "Maka, how could you say that?" snapped Soul. "Well...um...I kind of agree." said Tsubaki. "What? Tsubaki! I can't beleive this!" yelled Black*Star. "Wow. I feel really good about myself. Thanks for the complement, girls." joked Kid, rubbing it in. "Oh well. Whatever. Let's get to class."

Valenstein was in Kid's first class. She looked at Kid more than she looked at the teacher. She wanted to know more about him. So during the missions, she went to talk to him. "Hi, Kid." Kid just looked at her and turned back to the missions. "Kid?" she repeated. "What?" Kid replied rudly.

"Um...I was thinking...maybe...we should hang out sometime...and talk."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"You were thinking about that?"

"Yes."

"No!" Valenstein was hurt by Kid's answer but she just gave him some time. So a few weeks later in a smoother way, she tried again. "Hi, Kid!" Kid rolled his eyes. He didn't feel like being bothered. "What?" Valenstein got nervous. She didn't want Kid to say no again. "Um...do you want to hang out sometime?" Kid sighed angrily. "Didn't you try this before?" Valenstein nodded. "Ugh...okay. Whatever. Just leave me alone." Valenstein just smiled. "Great. I'll see you later then." Kid sighed again. "Ju-just leave me alone!"

Valenstein and Ellenor waited for Kid outside of the school. He took a long time. "I don't think he's coming, Stein." said Ellenor. "Of corse not. He'll be here any minute." Ellenor just rolled her eyes. Then Kid finally appeared, but not to Valenstein and Ellenor. He was trying to avoid them. However, Ellenor caught him. She raced up to Kid and snatched him by the neck. "Are you avoiding my meister?" she snapped. Kid just studdered. "Answer me!"

Valenstein caught her. "Ellenor, stop! That's Lord Death's son!" she cried. "He is? Oops! Sorry!" Ellenor let go of him. "Why were you choking me?" asked Kid. "You were ditching my friend. You said that you were going to talk to her after school. Why are you here?" Kid kept silent. "Well...?"

"I was looking for you two."

"You saw us."

"How would you know that?"

"I saw you. You looked in our direction and ran off."

"No...I was...um...I saw something else."

"What did you see?"

"I saw...um...Justin Law! He's a very irritating person. I was avoiding him."

"Where is he? Point him out."

"He left." Before Ellenor could ask anymore questions, Valenstein walked up. "Are you presuring him with your questions?" Ellenor blushed. She was very high temperious about her meister. "Um...yeah. Sorry." Kid just rolled his eyes. "Well, I guess I'll just have to stay here and talk to you." Valenstein giggled. She was excited to finally get his attention. "So...um...how are you?" she asked, clueless on what to say. "I'm...fine I guess." She twisted her bolts to hear what Kid just said. "No! Don't do that! You're ruining your symmetry!" Kid snapped. "My what?"

"Symmetry. You were symmetrical until you twisted those bolts in your ears."

"Well...I have to do that to hear. They're connected to my ear drums so they kind of plug up my hearing sometimes."

"Well that's understandable. No big deal I guess."

"Why do you care?"

"Care about what?"

"Symmetry."

"I care about symmetry because of it's perfection."

"Oh...um...okay then...?"

"Why do you have bolts in your head anyway?"

"To live. That's why Uncle Frankie has that huge bolt in his head."

"You think it's big enough?"

"Heh. Yeah. It is pretty big."

"Are you like your uncle?"

"What?"

"Your uncle. Are you like him?"

"Sorry, I can't hear you." She adjusted the bolts again.

"Can you hear now?"

"Yeah."

"Are you like Dr. Stein?"

"Um...sort of. I like experiments and stuff. I don't like cutting things up like him though. It's kind of creepy. All though it would be cool to see someones insides."

"...Oh. Heh. Um...okay."

"Am I freaking you out?"

"No. Not at all." Ellenor got bored and jumped in Kid's face. "So do you like her or what? I know you do! You've got to! Stein's really awsome! You'll love her! Wait, you already love her. You do love her, right? Right? Answer me!" Kid was thrown off guard. He had no idea that she was flirting with him. (Afterall, she only asked to talk to him twice.) He didn't want to hurt her feelings by telling her the truth but he also didn't want everyone to think that Valenstein was his girlfriend, including her. "Look, um...Valenstein...I...I...I don't really...like you that way. I like you as a friend...but...not as...well...you know...the other kind of friend."

Ellenor balled up her fists and punched Kid in the face. "I told you he was gay!" she screamed. Everyone around them heard her and started laughing. (they were walking at the time) "I'm not gay!" snapped Kid, slowly getting up. "Then why don't you like girls?" Ellenor snapped, bringing him back down with another punch. "I never said that!" snapped Kid, once again, trying to get up. "Why don't you like Valenstein?" she punched him back down. "I don't even know her!" Kid yelled, you should know what he's trying to do. "She didn't know you either!" You should know what she did. "Then why are we talking about this?" asked Kid, not getting up. "Because Valenstein loves you, and you hate her!"

"I don't hate her, I just don't like her as a girlfriend."

"Why not?"

"I said I don't know her!"

"She-didn't-know-YOU!" Ellenor hollared, kicking him with every pause. "Ellenor! Stop it!" cried Valenstein, (after Kid was already bloodied up by her). "It's okay. I understand."

Valenstein just sadly walked away. Ellenor kicked him again and follwed.
