"Hmmm...So this is the DWMA..."I looked at the school from the steps. 'Lord Death said someone would be here to show me around but I don't see anyone...'Then I saw someone, someone with black hair and three white strips on his head.
'It must be him.'I walked over to the strange looking boy.
Not that I should be saying that...after all what I'm wearing isn't exactly normal to them. I was red clothing. A red head band with golden jingles. A red top piece which covered my chest and wrapped around my neck and at the bottom of it more golden jingles. I wore a red long skirt with small blue and purples diamonds at the bottom. And I also wore purple diamond earrings. I had a belt covered with diamonds a gold. I wore sliver rings on all my fingers and golden cuffs round both my wrists. No shoes. Gypsy clothes.
I walked up to the strange looking boy"Hello are you the person to show me the school?"I asked in monotone.
He looked at me surprised"Are you Lulu...ya Lovell?""Yes and my name is Luluja not Luluya, you may refer to me as Lulu."It was not unusual for foreigners to be unable to pronounce my name.
"Oh I'm sorry my mistake."
"It is fine."
"I'm Death the Kid call me Kid it is a pleasure to make your acquantance."he smiled at me. I didn't smile.
He turned around and began walking"Time to take you on a tour through the school."I followed him.
He showed me the nurse's office the library the Death room (Death was currently not there at the moment)and the roof top. "Wow it's pretty high up here...and the sun makes the most beautiful array of colors up here as well..."Kid responded to this"You noticed it too?! I knew I wasn't the only one!" He grinned happily. I gave him a confused look"Yes I suppose..."
This boy was getting stranger and stranger by the moment...
"Alright is there anything in particular that you would like to ask or see about the school?"he looked at me with a small smile...but then for some reason he began to twitch.
"Excuse me are you alright Kid?"and his smile began to turn into a disturbing frown"Your hair...it's covering one eye but not the other...""Yes? And what may I ask is so unsightly of that?"
He looked even more upset and jittery"It's unsymmetrical..."I didn't like this comment in the slightest"You shouldn't criticize people on their outer appearance."I pointed to the three strips on his head"Haven't you noticed that are also unsymmetrical."I said coldly.
He looked at me shocked. Then he fell to the ground yelling"YOUR RIGHT I AM ASYMMETRICAL GARBAGE! I DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE I'M A DISGRACE TO MY FATHER AND TO WORLD!"I looked at him in utter amazement.
'All of this...because I said he was unsymmetrical...such a strange person...'I knelt down beside the crying yelling boy.
"No I can assure you that you are not trash."I rubbed his back"It's alright if you were trash wouldn't someone have thrown away already? And even if you were trash I would never throw you away. You would be beautiful even as trash."I gave him the best fake smile I could possibly give to anyone.
He looked up at me sniffling"R-really?"
"Yes of course."I said still giving him my fake smile his face turned a bright color of red"Thank you!"and he reached out and pulled me into a hug. "No worries..."'I hardly even...no...I DON'T even know who he is and he's making physical contact with me...'He let go of me got up and brushed himself off"I'm sorry about that I have taken 10 minutes of our time please forgive me."
I got up as well"Do not worry I did not mind."I said with a weak fake smile.
"Shall we get going? Professor Stein is waiting to introduce you to the class and seeing as there are only about 8 more minutes of class we should get going." I nodded my head in agreement.
PAPER MOON CLASS
"You can come in now!" I heard the professor yell from behind the door. Kid opened the door for me and I walked in. I was greeting by unfamiliar faces with a frown. It made sense though who would want me in their school.
I stood in front of the classroom"Now class I would like you to meet our new student, please introduce yourself." I took a breathe as I stood in front of the unhappy class"My name is Luluja Lovell please refer to me as Lulu if you like."I bowed a small bow"It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance."
The school bell rang "Alright that's it for class today."all the student stood up and began heading out the classroom"And please treat your new classmate nicely."the professor left as well but some of the kids stayed behind.
They all began walking down the steps and headed towards me, we stared at each other in an awkward silence.
Then a girl with pigtails broke the silence"My name is Maka Albarn..."she looked away as if disgusted to see my face.
I looked down then again greeted by another classmate"Hey my name is Soul."he smiled and held out his hand."I believe I've already introduced myself."I took his hand.
Then I was introduced to three other people twin sisters Liz and Patty Thompson who were the weapons of Kid and a girl named Tsubaki who was the weapon partner to a boy named Blackstar(who was currently not there at the moment."
"So Lulu what are your first impressions of the academy?"Soul asked me"Well...there's not much I can say seeing as I've only been here for an hour...the school seems nice I suppose...but if I had to choose I would want to leave the school..."
I then felt cold eyes shoot at me"Then why don't you just leave already!?"Maka fumed I looked down my short blond hair covering my face"Whoa Maka cool it." Soul tried to calm Maka"No Soul! This academy was made to destroy things like her not to house them!"I then looked her with a cold dead look in my right eye"House things like me? You call me a thing when your not sure what you are yourself. You say these things out of fear of me. What did one of the creatures like me do to you? Hmm...Oh that's right one of the thing's little experiments injured your friend over there! Why did he get hurt though? Because his so-called meister partner was too weak to protect him! You have the nerve to call me a thing...a monster and you don't even know who you are yourself! Just what are you Maka Albarn? A pathetic little weakling or someone that's even worth calling a meister?"Everyone looked at me shocked at what I just said and Maka with tears brimming her eyes.
"Oh yeah and did I mention that that little experiment that hurt your friend is being housed here? Oh wait...you already knew that. That's not fair how come it gets to live here and be called a person? When it's just like me?" I grinned an evil grin"That's not fair!"
Maka was on the verge of tears"What's wrong?"I asked in a playful voice I walked up to her"Little weakling gonna cry?"
"STOP IT!"Soul pushed me to the ground"DON'T YOU DARE GET NEAR MY MEISTER!"I lay there on the ground not bothering to get up.
Maka began to run out the room but stopped at the exit and looked back to me tears falling from her eyes.
"Trash like you deserve to be killed."and she ran off.
Everyone else ran after her except for Kid.
I turned my head to him still lying on the ground"See Kid? I told you, your not trash. If anything I'm the trash."I got up and ran away.
LIBRARY
I had run to the library the one quiet place without any noise and people. I went up to a book shelf and began to take down the books. I began building a house made of books a little fortress. It didn't take long to make it and I was it my own little world. Alone with little light coming through the through the cracks of the books.
I was always alone and I preferred it this way. The only ones I would ever talk to and they would always pay attention to me were my stepmother stepsister and grandmother. I didn't look like them at all they had black curly hair and tan skin while I was white and had blond hair with a blue eye. My other eye was green a doll's eye.
Always alone. Never with anyone. My mother sent me here even though she didn't like the idea of it. She wanted me to make friends but so far that hasn't been working out at all. And she sent me here because my left eye was "cursed" by magic. and I couldn't take it out if I wanted too I've tried but it never worked...the whole reason why I was here in the first place...
Always alone...I sighed.
Then I heard someone's voice"Who did this to all this books?! This is simply terrible!" and one by one my fortress of books came apart. And I saw him Kid. "Huh? Lulu what are you doing? I thought you went home..."I frowned.
"I'm hiding from everyone. And I can't go home because I don't know where my family is."I dug my head into my knees"And why would you care where I am? You guys hate me anyway. So stop acting so nice to me."
I felt him sit next to me.
"Well we are definitely not very fond of a witch joining the school."he scoffed"and if you didn't want to join the school then why did you?"my voice was muffled"Because my mother wanted me to get a control of power...It's not my fault this way..."
He sighed"Well you won't get by very well if you treat people the way you did in the classroom."
I lifted my head"It was that little girl's fault! I wasn't just going to let her call me a thing! How would you feel if someone called you an abomination or a freak?"
"Well I guess you have a point there."he sighed again"Hmph why are you even talking to me your just pretending to be nice to me."I put my chin on my knees.
He chuckled"Well first I cannot just leave these books a mess."he pointed to the mess of books on the ground"And my father told me to welcome you to the school, and to make sure your comfortable to your new surroundings."
I sighed"I would prefer it if you didn't. It would be better if you treat me how you would treat a stranger."
"Well then how about we re-introduce ourselves?"he smiled at me.
"Why would we do such a pointless thing?"
"Well don't you want someone you can trust or rely on? It would be easier to have a friend here too."he held out his hand"Hello my name is Death the Kid and it would be a pleasure to become your first friend."
I was a little shocked by what he just said "My name...is Luluja Lovell it's nice to meet you."I grabbed his hand in return. And for once I had someone to call a "friend". I couldn't help but tear up.
"Lulu are you alright?"Kid said a bit panicked. I began to cry softly"I...don't know...how to...have a..friend.."he looked at me confused, but then his mouth turned into a grin then he laughed"That's what your crying about? Don't cry over such things! All you need to do is talk to me."
I was sobbing"It's...not funny...don't laugh at me..."I frowned still sniffling. Kid got up"Now wAhy don't we put away the books you took down?"he began to pick up the books and put them away. I stood up and helped him. And for once I felt a little glimmer of happiness.
LATER DOWN THE HALLWAY OF THE DWMA!
"So Lulu how do you think your first day here was?"Kid asked.
"Hmmm...I suppose it was alright. I mean I met some new people...and I even made my first friend..."
He smiled"Oh and there was one thing I wanted to ask you."
"And that would be?"
"Well earlier you mention Maka not being able to protect Soul...how did you know about that?"he looked at me with suspicion. I stopped walking and pondered this "Well I guess it was just a lucky guess...?"
"That's impossible to just guess something like that you even new about the demon swordsmen living below the school, I never even showed you that part of the school."
And then I had my remembered something, I held my left eye"My eye..."Kid looked at me"Your eye?"I nodded"Yeah a my eye is a part of my power or...it is my power sometimes if I look at people with my left eye I can read their soul's emotion or...I can see their past which is why I cover it, but I guess my left eye caught a glimpse of Maka..."
Kid just looked at me not knowing what to say"You think I'm a freak."I said bluntly"N-no of course not. I would never say something like that."he looked nervous "You would never say it but you would think it."I began walking again.
Kid began to walk beside me"I'm sorry."he rubbed the back of his neck"No it's quite alright even I think I'm a freak."I looked down"Don't say things like that about yourself."
I sighed "I think I wanna go back to the roof for a little while..."I began walking up to the roof.
"Alright then. I'll see you later."he waved goodbye and I waved back and we went seperate ways.
ROOF
I made it to the roof and stared at the sunset once again. I looked down and I saw Kid I waved a bit at him it seemed that he saw me because waved back. I smiled a bit.
'I'm bored...'I thought as I stared at the sky.
I began to hum then the humming slowly turned into singing:
On me dit que nos vies ne valent pas grand-chose
Elles passent en un instant comme fanent les roses
On me dit que le temps qui glisse est un salaud
Que de nos chagrins il s'en fait des manteaux
Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit...
(refrain)
Que tu m'aimais encore
C'est quelqu'un qui m'a dit que tu m'aimais encore
Serait-ce possible alors ?
On me dit que le destin se moque bien de nous
Qu'il ne nous donne rien et qu'il nous promet tout
Paraît que le bonheur est à portée de main
Alors on tend la main et on se retrouve fou
Pourtant quelqu'un m'a dit...
(refrain)
Mais qui est-ce qui m'a dit que toujours tu m'aimais ?
Je ne me souviens plus, c'était tard dans la nuit
J'entends encore la voix, mais je ne vois plus les traits
"Il vous aime, c'est secret, lui dites pas que je vous l'ai dit"
Tu vois, quelqu'un m'a dit...
Que tu m'aimais encore, me l'a-t-on vraiment dit...
Que tu m'aimais encore, serait-ce possible alors ?
Then I stopped at the sound of steps behind me, I turned to see a gaping Soul.
"Oh hello. I didn't know someone was here..."I turned back to the sky.
Then he stood next to me"You can sing in french?"
I nodded"I learned it when I was little."
"That's cool."
"Why are you talking to me anyway? You don't like people...things like me."
"Oh sorry about that...we're just not-"
"Used to having witches here. That's what you were going to say no?"I frowned.
"Uh...yeah"he sighed"Look we're sorry...we didn't mean get off bad terms like that..."
"Anyway if you want you could hang out with us tomorrow we're going to play basketball."
I turned him"Basket Ball? What is that?"He looked at me confused"You don't know what basketball is?"I shook my head"Afraid not."
"Okay then how about I show you tomorrow then?"
I thought then said"Okay then...and then maybe in return I will show you some french."
"Alright then."he began walking away"See ya."he waved.
I waved back'Although I'm not sure how everyone else will feel about that...'I turned away and began walking out the school towards my house.'I wonder if Soul and I will become acquaintances...Well I guess we'll see.'
