1. Introduction

Introduction

Before you even think about reading this story, read this!

Please realize the following things as you read through GrimsReaper:

1) It's important to know the time period of this story first. The story takes place before Kishin Asura's revival, so I'd say between episodes 13 (Man with Demon Eyes; Maka and Soul, the Gap of the Soul's Wavelength) and 18 (Nightmare at the Night Festival; And the Act Rose Up?). For those that read the manga, this story takes place between chapters 9 (The Experiment; First Part) and 15 (The Eve of Establishment Commemoration Festival).

2) You'll also need to understand that I've incorporated terms from both the Soul Eater Anime and Manga. I use the term demon weapon instead of death weapon. When a demon weapon absorbs 99 kishin eggs and a witch's soul, they become a death scythe and when they absorb innocent souls (these are dark weapons) they become a demon sword. The school is the DWMA (Death Weapon Meister Academy) instead of Shibusen. Lord Death is still Lord Death instead of Shinigami. Many attack names and weapon names have differences between the Anime and Manga that you will notice. There are too many differences to name, so just pay close attention.

3) Thirdly, soul keepers do not exist in the Soul Eater universe. I've just created them for GrimsReaper. There are also other terms that I've created just for GrimsReaper.

4) Here's something you should know about how I use demon weapons in the text. I use musical instruments to represent the soul wavelength(s) of the weapon(s) when resonating with their meister. When a demon weapon is speaking while in their weapon form and when they are inside their minds, the text will be italicized.

5) Finally, many events will occur in this fanfiction which may make you think, "No way that could that ever happen! What's wrong with this guy, for thinking that's even a possibility!?" Well, let me remind you that THIS IS A FANFICTION AND ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN! Okay, not anything. But I promise, no matter how abstract things may get, if you read through the rest of the series then everything will make sense.

So I hope you enjoy this story! Here's a quick introduction:

Almost a full year ago, Corvis Reaper and his demon weapons Sun Tucker and Moon Tucker quit the DWMA. They wanted to pursue kishin eggs on their own so they could come back to the DWMA as triumphant death scythes. After collecting nearly one-third of the 100 souls needed to turn a demon weapon into a death scythe, they lose a valuable team member. In order to get him back, the remaining team members must suck up their pride and return to their old school, who mostly hates their guts. There, they meet some old friends and new friends who hopefully will be willing to help Reaper rebuild his team. Many challenge stand in the way of their goal, and one huge obstacle stands at the goal. But, with a little teamwork and new acquired abilities, they just might pull it off.

Enjoy the first of four parts to the GrimsReaper series!
