Chapter One: New Kid

Soul P.O.V.~ "SOUL WAKE UP! WE'RE GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!" Those were the first words Soul Eater heard when he woke up that morning. The first thing he saw was even more frightening: Maka standing next to his bed with a frying pan, poised and ready to strike. "Alright, alright I'm up! Just don't hit me…." Soul muttered as he sat up and walked groggily to the door, with a somewhat still annoyed Maka in tow.

Two bowls of cereal and a change of clothes later, weapon and meister were heading off to school. "So aren't we getting a new student today?" asked Soul over the noise of his motorcycle. "Yeah, I hear he's supposed to be pretty powerful even for a new-be." Maka said distantly. Soul sighed, Maka hadn't been the same since he'd gotten hurt in their last battle. I wish she would stop being such a big baby and just talk to me about it, he thought as he parked in front of the DWMA.

In class, it seemed as if no one could stop talking about the new student. "I don't care who this kid is, there's no way he can be a bigger star than me!" boasted Black Star. "Yeah Black Star no one is, I know." Soul said sarcastically, though Black Star didn't seem to notice. Suddenly everyone fell silent as Dr. Stein walked in with a tall hazel eyed boy with smooth hair.

"Everyone, this is Darren. He is a new student here and a weapon." "Ohhh! What kind?" yelled out Patti. The boy smiled "I can turn into many weapons, including a canon and scythe." He said confidently changing his arms into said canons. "I can even fight on my own." The class oohed and ahhed, all except Black Star and Soul. "He might have a lot of weapon forms but I'm still the greatest assassin ever." Black Star half whispered. "Well I think he's pretty amazing, I mean he probably doesn't even need a meister." Maka mused aloud.

Soul's head snapped in the direction of his meister. He stared at her a long time before leaning back in his seat. "He doesn't seem that cool to me…" Soul muttered.

"Darren, why don't you take that empty seat next to Maka?" Stein suggested, much to Soul's horror. Darren nodded and walked to his seat, smiling at Maka as he sat down. "It's nice to meet you, I'm Darren." He said. She just blushed and giggled- very uncool, Soul thought.

Soul reached over the desk. "I'm Soul, and this weak minded girl is my partner, Maka." He said, trying-and failing- to dodge a Maka Chop. "Don't listen to him Darren, he's just an idiot." Maka muttered "Well he can't be that bad if he's paired with such a charming girl." The new guy replied. Soul glared at him. Who did this kid think he was, marching in here and sweet talking his meister? Soul didn't even see what was so special about him anyways.

**S~E**

Throughout the day "Mr. Perfect Darren" just kept getting even more perfect. He was good looking, almost as smart as Maka, and just as strong as Black Star. By the end of the day he was swarmed by girls. Although, to Soul's utter disgust, he seemed to have his eyes on only one girl. "Hey Maka, wait up!" Darren shouted as he caught up with her and her partner.

"Oh hey, Darren! Is there something you need?" Maka said cheerily. "Well, we have a test tomorrow and I was just wondering if you want to study together." He replied. "Sure you can come over to my place, I'm sure Soul won't mind." She agreed flashing Soul a warning glance.

"If you expect me to give both of you two a ride-" Soul began, "Oh that's alright I have my own bike. Coming Maka?" Darren waved Maka over to his impressive looking motorcycle. Maka took an uncertain look at Soul, who shrugged, and then ran over to Darren and hopped on the bike, wrapping her arms around him.

Soul stood there in shock for a few minutes, before angrily kicking his bike. "Crap! What the heck was I thinking?" Soul sighed. Why was Maka so interested in Darren? And what did he want with her?

Most of all, why did it bother Soul so much?
