EG484: Well, I have been totally absorbed into soul eater, and have decided on making a fanfic about it. The rating is to play it safe, but I understand my -crippling- bad habits of not liking to write lemons, so no lemons for you until I get reviewage! (I know reviewage isn't a word.)
And, It's a Kid x OC story, so don't be too surprised at this. I'm thinking about making this an epic, because this is an introductory one-shot. I hope you will all enjoy! :)
Souls of Other Dimensions: The Homecoming
Death the Kid, a perfectly symmetrical teen, made his way to the academy with his twin pistols, Liz and Patty, who weren't so much twins in their human state. His father, Shinigami-sama, or otherwise known as Lord Death, had called him because Franken Stein, his academy professor, had detected a space-time rift that needed to be seen to, and this mission could only be trusted to his own blood, and with his father connected to Death City, he had to take his father's place.
He walked the corridors of the school, and entered his fathers room, which lacked the symmetry he loved dearly. However, he was entranced by the mirror his father had, the image of a swirling yellow and red light flashing, with blues thrown into the mix at random intervals.
There was a greater concentration than what his father had shown him previously of energy, meaning... "Father, what does the build up of energy entail precisely?"
Lord Death, who had been watching the mirror with such intent he didn't notice his own son in the room with him, jumped slightly before turning to his son. "Heya, hi, what's up?" He sweatdropped. "As for your question, Kiddo, it means that something, or someone, is going to pass through soon." His head, tilted to the side, shook almost imperceptibility, and he continued. "And as a grim reaper, you should be there when whatever is going to come through does, in case it's a kishin, or worse, a different type of evil that mustn't be here."
Kid nodded. "Then I must leave soon, is that what you're implying?"
The older male nodded, and with his high voice, laced with worry, he said, "And if it is a person, and the gateway closes behind them, you must make sure that they don't become violent, or try to hurt themselves. Or, if the object is a person, and he or she is a meister, or weapon, then you must bring him or her to the academy, is that understood?"
The teen, in his black and white suit, his black hair with the lines of sanzu running through the left side of his black hair, nodded and turned, leaving for the energy field to 'greet' their 'guest'.
~~(BREAK AND POV CHANGE)~~
Groaning at the noon-high sun, which was a flat, bright disk in the sky, the girl teen closed her eyes, hoping to will back the sleep she sought. Realizing that the task was impossible, she slid off her mattresses and let her feet hit her messy floor, rubbing the sleep away. 'I'm going to take a hike on the rocks behind the apartment.'
Her decision made, she put in her headphones, and with a second generation iPod shuffle, listened to music until she was awake enough to grab a cup of coffee.
Getting up after a few songs, she put milk and sugar into the cup after pouring in some brown, nearly black liquid into said cup. Quickly downing the cup, she grabbed another with the same milk and sugar ratio and headed into her room, getting dressed for her hike.
After some lunch was made and packed, and grabbing her solar charger as the damned mp3 player was dying, she climbed the hill of blackened rocks, the nickle mining that her hometown was famous for creating sulfuric air and blackening the boulders underneath her sneakers. Lime green shorts and a baggy tee was all she wore, excluding the fedora and sneaker/socks.
Looking ahead of her position, she felt a tugging on her senses and without a word she followed it, intrigued by the crippling power it gave off, her keen aura always looking for out of place distortions.
~~(BREAK- WITH KID)~~
This immense power, it gave off an alluring, sultry wavelength that made him want to jump in it, and be hopelessly devoured into another dimension. But he had to stay, as the next in line for the title of Grim Reaper. As he would, she would pass through...
'Wait a damned moment. As he would, she would pass through? As I would what? Wait for her? How do I know it's a she?'
The beginnings of a migraine appearing, he didn't think on the line any more, trying to stay alert and focused. Hard, when the power is... 'The power is growing! It's coming soon... No, she is coming soon, I can almost brush her soul wavelengths with mine!'
He tensed, and waited for the girl to pull through to this side of the portal...
~~(BREAK, WITH THE GIRL)~~
Passing a barrier, I tried to turn back from it, but couldn't. It was frustrating not to be able to go back. Sighing in annoyance, I felt someone try to reach me through their ki, my own aura rising to greet theirs. Shifting my pack once more, I trudged forwards unwillingly, my body now a slave to the barriers that keep me moving forward, unable to walk any other direction into the thicket.
A few short steps later, and I'm barely able to breath... 'What the flying fuck is this shit? A inter-dimensional portal? Nah... It... Can't be... Nothing this kind of anime special happens to ME!'
Walking with unsteady feet, I moved slowly to the bright opening in the fabric of space and time itself, and gulping with paralyzing fear, and a whole lot of apprehension, I jumped in, screaming as my molecular structure was destroyed and rebuilt in the tear, falling from a high place into a world that wasn't my own.
~~(BREAK, KID'S POV)~~
I observed a young woman, who had just been ejected from the portal and was now falling to the earth, unconscious, who had been scared intensely just a moment before.
"Kid?"
It was Liz. "Yes Liz?"
"Shouldn't you go and save her, just in case she's a meister or weapon?"
I froze for a second, summoning my skateboard after my paralysis was removed from my person, and deftly caught the heavy woman... No, wait, teenager. She groaned, her shoulder length hair slightly disarrayed and glasses askew, before holding onto me, and passing out again.
I sighed, the asymmetry making me slightly ill, as I flew back to the academy, the portal already almost gone from the sky.
~~(BREAK, WITH LORD DEATH AND KID, AND AN UNCONSIOUS GIRL)~~
My father, now making sure the girl was alright before sending her to the Dispensary, addressed me for a full report. Going over the events, I stopped only when the girl and I had entered the city, where I knew my father knew what had happened then. Dismissed, I wandered down the halls, ending up at the medical ward where the girl, whom I had caught before she died, was sleeping.
Looking into the room, I saw that she carried very little, enough to go on a short hike with. A meager lunch, a few small bottles of water and a MP3 player which I didn't recognize. Nygus, the nurse, noticed me standing there and moved closer to me.
"She'll make it through, just a bit of shock from the jump I suspect. Though, I haven't a clue as to how she'll react when she wakes up... We'll have to see."
Nodding, I stared at the girl, her sleeping form on one side and her arm curled under her pillow, her body stopping just short under five foot ten. Her breathing, which had been calm until a short moment ago, was starting to become irregular, signaling that she might wake up soon.
She was not one to disappoint.
Groaning, she pulled herself into an upright position, mumbling something about wondering where the proper bed came from and what the hell was going on, until her mind caught up with her. Looking her over, I sighed, realizing that she might not even be a meister, much less a weapon.
Father will be slightly disappointed...
"Where am I?"
I looked at her without moving my body, and saw her staring out the window with a look of horror upon her face. "Death Weapon Meister Academy. Also known as the DWMA. Why?"
Shaking her head, the brunette pointed to the sun. "I meant, which dimension, but you answered that with the school's name..." The girl's face, pasty white from either shock as Nygus said, or realization of something I couldn't quite understand, she turned to me. "So, tell me. How is it possible I ended up in an anime?"
Staring dumbly at her all I could do was blink. "You are not in a... Anime, but at a place. You are in-"
"The DWMA I know, Death the Kid. In my dimension, this place is an anime. I know more about you than you can probably realize. And the fact that I don't know if I'm a meister, much less a weapon, brings about the question; why was I allowed in this dimension?"
Swallowing thickly, I turned fully towards her. "I don't know, but maybe my father will have some answers."
~~(BREAK, ROJI'S POV)~~
Blinking hard, I followed Kid down the hallways. Thinking while walking, I asked a question. "I'm sorry, but did I introduce myself yet?"
Kid paused for a moment, then continued on, me following slightly behind him. "No, you did not."
Looking down, after hearing the tightly reigned anger in his voice, I spoke again after a slight pause, albeit quietly. "My name's Roji... As you can tell, I am a girl, age seventeen. Nice to meet you?"
The male I was walking with turned to me, slightly surprised, and said, "Nice to meet you as well, though I have a feeling if what you said is true, then I have no need for introductions are not necessary... Am I correct."
It was more of a statement, and I nodded. Peeking up at his eyes, I smiled slightly, remembering how I obsessed over him for a period, and blushed. After looking at me oddly, Kid said nothing about it and continued down to Lord Death's room, the Death Room. Trying unsuccessfully not to blush further, he led me through the door, and into a room I knew all too well.
Trying, yet again, to reign in my nervousness, I followed him up to the platform, stopping behind Kid when he stopped as well.
"Hiya hiya! What's up Kiddo?" The Grim Reaper noticed me standing behind Kid, and seemingly smiled, not that you could tell behind the mask. "And who are you? How did you get here?"
I shifted, telling the male in front of me who I was, and how I got here, well, as much as I could remember. Somewhere along the story, a table and green tea appeared and we all sat down, myself feeling awkward at the unusual position that I found myself in.
When we where done with the tea and the telling of how I got here and how much I knew about this dimension, the lord of death looked almost thoughtful for a second before deciding that I should attend the academy and stay with Kid, at least, until I had my feet underneath me here.
Keeping his son back, Kid told Liz and Patty to take me to my new home, and feed me so he could talk to his father.
~~(BREAK, KID'S POV)~~
With Roji taken care of for the time being, I turned to my father, and waited for his response.
"Kiddo, did you see her soul?"
Blushing lightly, I replied. "No, I did not. She was a bit of a … surprise to hear from. Why?"
Tilting his head, Father explained, "Her soul is split into different parts. Four, with five connecting parts as well. I don't quite understand, but I have a feeling that it can be that she can separate her soul and possibly use herself as a weapon, as well as meister herself."
Taking this in, I nodded, an action I knew I was repeating an awful lot today. "I understand. When will she begin classes?"
Humming to himself for a few moments, then replied. "Monday, give her a week to adjust."
Saying yes, I understood, as well as my good-bye's, I set out for home myself, tired as this was a long, long day. Entering my home, I realized that the young woman was asleep in a spare room, and so, I quietly slipped into my own room for some sleep myself.
Tomorrow couldn't come sooner.
~A/N~
EG484: Well, there it is. Part One of my Epic. (Epic, for all you who don't know, is roughly four or more stories or books long. Part four of this epic will probably be a chapter story, rather than a thick one-shot for you all to deal with.) For all of you who read my crappy writing (well, maybe not so crappy, but I do realize I am not the best), thank you. Please review, as cookies make my day. The cast is mad, so I will let Kid speak.
Kid: the authoress does not own Soul Eater, or anything else besides her own OC's, and probably never will. If she did own Soul Eater, this would have been made into an anime, instead of being posted on here. Now, please, for my sanity, review, and leave a symmetrical amount of said reviews.
EG484: You heard him! Review~ They are my lifeblood~! And I'll have Part Two: Students meet? Up and running when I reach a certain amount of reviews! (Hint: 8 of 'em. Please~?) Now, click the button down there, and gimme something I can grow on. Like, constructive criticism. No flames, but I do realize that not everyone will like it. Tell me why so I can make better fan fictions! -bows- I'm off for the evening! Happy Canada day!
