Word of the Day: Dumbass
Simply because there are some people in the world who deserve the title.
Now despite the fact that I adore Soul Eater to no end (and Death the Kid) I do not own them. *Drowns in a pool of tears*
Chapter One-
His friends watched as Death the Kid sat there barely noticing them. They were worried. He hadn't eaten much in days and seems to be in a daze. Lord Death seemed to be calling him in a lot too.
"What do you think is wrong with Kid?" Patty asked.
"I don't know, Patty. There's probably something on his mind." Liz responded quietly.
"Even a big star like me can tell it's got something to do with his visits to Lord Death." Black Star said surprisingly quiet.
Tsubaki whispered, "Black Star, we don't know that."
Soul snorted, "I still say we ask him."
"But Soul," Maka said, "He doesn't even respond."
Then Crona got up and tapped Kid on the shoulder.
"Are you alright Kid?" Crona asked worriedly.
Kid sighed, "Truthfully, Crona, I'm not. I just feel empty lately, but it's to be expected."
"What do you mean, Kid?" Liz asked.
Sighing again Kid said, "Every Grim Reaper goes through this process. You all know the twin flame legend in western culture, right?"
"You mean the one how all of us have emptiness inside our souls until we find our equal?" Maka rattled off.
Kid nodded, "Exactly. Grim Reapers have an intense urge to fill that emptiness throughout their lives. I've already met my mate but we aren't allowed to see each other."
"What do you mean, Kid?" Tsubaki asked.
Kid pulled a picture out of his coat pocket, "This is my most recent picture of her. One picture, one phone call per year, that's all we're allowed. Anything else gets burned or destroyed."
"Who's the one who decided this?" Maka hissed.
"Her father," Kid sighed, "Once he found out what she was to me he banned us from seeing each other and moved out of state. Then she stopped eating and talking. So I rushed over and talked him into one phone call and one picture. I was on my way back when I met Liz and Patty."
Soul stood behind him trying to look at the picture and asked, "What's her name?"
Kid answered as he put the picture away, "Lorelei. My Lorelei."
