Witch Meister!
A Soul Eater fanfiction
Written by: FossilQueen1984
Disclaimer: Hey there, it's me FossilQueen1984. I have been a huge fan of this show for quite a while and I have to say Angela is my favorite minor character. She's soooo kawaii, I wanna pinch her cheeks. I know there's another fic where she is training to be a meister with a partner, but I feel like Angela would be one of those meisters who uses their soul wavelength as a weapon. So, for this fic Angela will go the Justin Law route. Please note this follows the anime with a couple of nods to the manga, mainly Kim Diehl being a witch and the truce between the witches and the DWMA. That said, I might write in at some point in this story where some witches break away and from their own society, or something like that. Anyways, I do not own any of the characters mentioned or the locations. They belong to Okubo-san. Enjoy!
Suggested Soundtrack: Dreaming/Mechanical Lullaby/Exploration/It Was Fantastic- Coraline Soundtrack, Fairy Tale/On My Way Home- Enya
Chapter One: Intake Evaluation
DWMA INTAKE EVALUATION FORM:
Subject Intake Interview and Notes-
Intake Subject Name: LEON, ANGELA
Subject Gender: FEMALE
Known Affiliations (if any): UNKNOWN, FORMERLY ARACNOPHOBIA
Current age: 6 YEARS, 2 MONTHS, 18 DAYS
Date of Birth: 10-17-201X
Interview Conductor: LORD DEATH
Post-interview notes: After interviewing Miss Leon, earlier this afternoon, I can safely say she will make an excellent meister like our very own Kim Diehl. That said, Angela will need to have a Soul Protect on her until the pending truce with the witches in finalized and ratified with both parties. Since Angela is still a small child, it will be important that her guardian Mifune, and the rest of the DWMA staff instruct her in proper etiquette becoming of a young meister. It appears that Arachne wished to have Angela as an apprentice, because Miss Leon has a powerful soul that has not yet fallen under the sway of magic. Safe to say, Angela suffered no abuse and was well taken care off during her tenure in Siberia. Now that she is here at DWMA, her talents will be put to much better use as a witch meister.
Intake Interview Minutes 5:34 to 25:16-
Would you like some more sparkling cider, Miss Leon?
Yes, I would please. Thank you, Lord Death.
There you are. Now Angela, may I call you Angela? I'm very sure you know that your guardian, Mifune is a new instructor here and you will need to spend time with children your own age here on campus. You needn't worry about anybody freaking out if you are a witch, someone will put a Soul Protect on you. Now, could you please tell me about the time you spent under the care of Lady Arachne?
Are you sure you wanna hear about that? You don't wanna hear about the time I kicked Black-Star in the balls?
A young lady does not speak that way, Angela Leon. I'll have to tell Mifune he needs to teach you a more appropriate vocabulary when you're around adults. Well, that's out of the way, please continue.
Okay then, Lord Death. I'll tell you everything, at least all the stuff that I remember, 'cause a whole ton of stuff happened. Oh-kay, well Black Star and Mifune fought for the first time and then we took off. Mifune said Death City wasn't safe for us, so we rode the rails for a couple of weeks. It was really neat sleeping on the old boxcars, I told Mifune it was just like camping out! Of course, a couple of railroad cops found out we were hitching a ride, so we had to hide on top of the train while it was going at a million miles an hour. Whoa, was that fun! We were goin' real fast, so Mifune told me to hold on. So, I had to since I didn't want to break my leg or anything like that, you see.
I do see, sounds very exciting. After you and Mifune stopped riding the rails, what did you two do then?
Mifune thought it would be cool if we went to Russia. He read me a book about once, with all of the pretty buildings and museums in Russia. But, because I'm a witch we couldn't go over there on an airplane. By now, we were up north somewhere, I think we were near New York because all the radio programs were talking about the New York Yankees. Also, Mifune started acting really weird when we were back up north.
Acting weird, how?
Well, normally Mifune was real good about making sure we had a good hiding place during the day where I could stay while he did shopping. Well, one day he kept looking around, like someone was following us or something. I asked him about it, but he said not to worry, he would protect me and that it was a grown-up thing.
Hmm, that is very interesting. How many days was Mifune acting like this?
6,7,8,9,…10! He was acting really super sneaky for 10 days. I asked him what was wrong and he said it was getting really hard to protect me by himself and that I needed to be around other witches. So I told him that I was already around other witches during Sabbath Services. Mifune said I was still a little kid, I needed a home where I could grow up. The very next day, he showed up and offered us sandwary.
You mean sanctuary?
Yeah, that's it! Sants-u-airy.
Try again, dear. Sank-zhou-airy.
Sankzhouary, sanctuary. Hey, I got it! Anyway, it was really early in the morning and it was cloudy and cold. Mifune said he had met someone who could help. Well, we walked to a park, and there was a little man with a suit on and he had a large nose. He looked up at Mifune and said to him, "I understand you are looking for sanctuary for the little witch. Hello there, little witch. I am Mister Mosquito. My, you have a powerful soul. I am an emissary for Arachnophobia, an association of witches. My mistress, Lady Arachne, requests an audience with you, Miss Leon. As for you, Lady Arachne will speak to you after speaking to the child. Alone." Mifune told me to go pick flowers while he and Mister Mosquito talked grown-up stuff. So, I ran off to pick flowers, and there were a lot of pretty ones to make a bouquet with. Well, when I got back both of them were sort of staring at each other.
Were they speaking when you returned?
No, not at first. When they sensed I had returned, Mifune told Mister Mosquito, "In exchange for Angela's protection, your association shall have me as a bodyguard until." Mister Mosquito got this really big smile on his face and he rubbed his hands together like he was excited or something. He turned around and told us we would be taking a steamer boat from New York to Russia. It took a really long time for us to cross the ocean because of all the storms and stops at ports for dropping of cargo. It took us 15 days to get to Russia. When we got there, I was soooo happy to see land again! I ran around for what seemed like hours.
I would too, a fortnight at sea is a long journey for someone your size.
Lord Death, what's fortnight mean?
It's just a fancy way of saying two weeks.
Okay then. Well, we had just left the port when we see Mister Mosquito and this big ol' car. He waves at us and says, "Glad to see the both of you made it. Trip wasn't too horrible, I hope? This way, Miss Leon. It will be a good drive, so you'd best sleep now before you meet Lady Arachne." I asked what she was like, and he told me she was the most powerful and beautiful witch in the entire world. He also said I had to mind my best manners whenever she was in the room with me. That's all I remember because I fell asleep after that.
What happened after you woke up?
When I woke up, the car was still going fast and we were surrounded by all these trees. I asked Mifune if we were almost there and Mister Mosquito interrupted him and said that up ahead was our final destination, Baba Yaga castle. It was the largest building I had ever seen, besides the DWMA. It looked like a giant spider and as we got out of the car Mister Mosquito explained to me that arachnophobia means a fear of spiders. When we walked on the front sidewalk, Mister Mosquito got real particular about how we were to enter the throne room. He had to enter first, I was behind him and Mifune had to be behind me. Mister Mosquito said this was called walking single file.
We walked into the throne room and there was Lady Arachne, sitting on a giant spider web. I thought she was the most beautiful lady I had ever seen. Her dress was black and glittery and it looked like she had made it out of a spider. Mister Mosquito took his hat off, bowed and said to her, "Good afternoon, Lady Arachne. I have returned from overseas with a new member for our illustrious organization… and a bodyguard. May I present, Angela Leon." He scooched over and I curtsied.
While I curtsied, I said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Highness. My name is Angela Leon, and it's a pleasure to meet you." When I looked up, she had a fan in front of her mouth, and she was laughing. She stood up and walked over to me. When she reached me, she knelt down and gazed into my eyes. She said, "Such an adorable little witch you, and well behaved also. You are safe here, young Angela. You will have plenty to eat and drink, plenty of toys to play with and when you are a little bit older, all the spells you could ever want to learn in order to become a powerful witch. I have longed for a sweet little witch of my own to teach. Will you stay here with us, Angela?" She smiled at me and I felt so happy because I had never had a real home before. At least, that I can remember. So, I told her yes, I would stay. I think this made her happy because she told a servant to show me to my room. I went away with the servant after Mister Mosquito assured me that Mifune would be with me in a little while.
I loved my room at Baba Yaga's Castle. I had a pink bed, stuffed animals and dollies and all the storybooks I ever wanted to read. Mifune had the room next mine because he was now everyone's bodyguard. Lady Arachne invited us to have dinner with her that night. The food was fancy, salmon fillets with lime-mango chutney, Italian asparagus salad with collard greens, scalloped potatoes, nut bread, and key lime pie for desert. I had milk with dinner and all the grownups had red wine. There were other people at dinner besides me, Mifune, Mister Mosquito and Lady Arachne. There was a human there in overalls who drank beer and argued with Mister Mosquito all night and there were a zillion servants in masks and robes. One of them even broke a vase! Well, Lady Arachne didn't like that and said doing that was setting a bad example for me. Then, Mister Mosquito drank him all up like a milkshake.
That is very interesting, Angela. During your days at Baba Yaga castle, did you do anything with Lady Arachne?
I sure did. Every day we would walk around the garden and we would talk about of favorite things. I would read from the holy texts she had collected and I would assist Mister Mosquito with the equipment. The only time I would ever see Mifune would be when the castle's defenses were tested. Then, Black-Star and his weapon, Tsubaki came to rescue us. That's it. Is that all?
Yes that's all, thank you Angela. You did a great job. You can go now.
