My name is Maka. I am 13 and am currently living in a small apartment with two other people. I'll introduce them later. It was a nice day like any other in Death City. Like usual, I was walking down the hallways of the DWMA (Death Weapon Meister Academy) with my partner and best friend, Soul 'Eater' Evans. I walked through the halls with my ash-blonde hair up in pigtails and my emerald green eyes shining. As we walked in the classroom and took our seats, our nutty professor rolled in on his chair and fell on the floor as he entered the room. As our teacher, Professor Stein, stood up, he greeted us all by saying, "Welcome class! Today is Monday and I know you're all tired, but you need to listen to this important announcement. The DWMA is hosting it's very first talent show! Also, three meisters and their weapons will be forced to preform." As he said that, he scanned the room with an evil glint in his eye, suggesting that he enjoyed forcing us to do things. It sent a chill down my spine. "Now, I will choose my favorite student for this event, and no you have no choice. Maka and Soul, Black Star and Tsubaki, and Death the Kid, Liz, and Patty. You will all be participating in the talent show, so be prepared." And with that, he started the lesson. I was utterly shocked. I, Maka Albarn, the flat-chested bookworm was being forced to participate in a talent show?!
And with that, the bell rang.
As soon as I heard the bell, I dashed towards the door, dragging Soul with me. I stood in the hallway and looked at him, wondering if he was going to start the conversation or if I would have to. As he stood there with his stark-white, spiky hair and serious, crimson eyes and customary slouch, he said, "So... What're we gonna do for this stupid thing anyhow?" Soul asked, clearly having no clue on what to do. I shook my head, "Sorry, I don't know what I wanna do yet. Maybe we could-" I said as I was cut off by a loud shout. "Yahoo!" the wild blue-haired boy shouted as he tackled Soul. "I AM THE GREAT ASSASSIN BLACK STAR! I AM GONNA HAVE AN AWESOME PERFORMANCE AT THE TALENT SHOW! YAHOO!" I sighed. Sometimes I really can't stand his shouting. "Black Star, calm down for once," said Tsubaki, Black Star's parter. Tsubaki had purple/black hair and deep, violet eyes. She was a calm person and would comply to anything anyone said, and was the only one who could handle Black Star. "What is all the commotion about this time?" asked Kid as he exited the classroom. Death the Kid, or Kid, was Lord Death's son and had OCD and an obsession with symmetry. He had a black suit on, black shoes, a white shirt, a skull ring on each hand, golden eyes, and black hair with three asymmetrical stripes on the left side of his head. It was his only asymmetrical flaw. And with his question ignored, the Thompson sisters came out of the classroom. Liz Thompson, the older of the Thompson sisters, had shoulder length blonde hair and blue eyes, and always wore the same outfit as Patty, (minus the jeans) her younger twin sister who had slightly blonder hair that was much shorter, only coming just below her chin. She also wore shorts and a big smile on her face, just like always. "So... Do any of you know what you're gonna do for the talent show?" I asked. Everyone shook their heads, saying no. Then an idea popped up in my head. "Hey, do any of you like to sing?" I asked while they eyed me curiously. "What are you getting at Maka?" Soul asked curiously. "Well, maybe we could all sing for the talent show. I think it'd be fun," I said. For a second, no one said anything. But once huge grins plastered on their faces, I knew they wanted to sing. This talent show is gonna rock!
