Prologue

"Maka meet Death the Kid, my son." I stare at the huge looming figure over me. Then I look back down and notice a boy around my age hiding behind him. I can see a tiny bit of his head peeking out and looking at me. I see a golden eye widen as he realizes I saw him. I flash a smile

"It's okay, I don't bite." I say, "Come out."

I see his head peek around Lord Death. I can see he has black hair with three odd stripes in it. He slowly emerges and I can see his whole body now. He is wearing a dress shirt with black shorts and suspensers. He seems quite shy.

"Hi! My name is Maka Albarn, let's be friends from now on, okay?" I extend my small hand to him. He nods and takes it.

"Really? You won't abandon me? You will forever be here for me?" He asks.

"Of course, I will always be here." I say as I stare deep into his golden eyes.

"Then I promise to never leave your side." He says

At the time I didn't know what that truly meant. What have I gotten myself into?

I wake up remembering that tiny piece from my past. I was around five or six at the time, the time I made a promise I sometimes wish I hadn't. Death the Kid, or Kid for short, was a well mannered, polite, super rich, gentle, and cute, boy. Don't get me wrong he still is all those things except, well let's just say he sure keeps his promises. His father, Lord Death, is a very hard working man who never had the time to spend time with his little boy. He feared his son would be lonely through out his childhood so he asked my dad for a favor.

"Spirit, you are my best worker and companion-" Lord Death started. Spirit knew something was up, no one ever compliments womanizer, Spirit.

"What do you want?" Spirit sighed.

"Well you see I have a son, and well I am almost never home, he's becoming very unsociable and I fear he will have the most terrible and lonely childhood." He put his huge hands together nervously.

"I understand your concern for your child but what does that have to do with me?" Spirit asked taking a seat in front of his boss's desk.

"I know you have a daughter around the same age so I was wondering if-" Lord Death was cut off by an overprotective Spirit.

"My Maka will not stay with him through his childhood to keep him from being lonely. Maka's too young to have b-boys as friends!" Spirit said

"What's with the yelling Spirit?" A blonde woman with green eyes popped inside the room from the door. "I'm sorry Lord Death, is my ex husband-to-be causing trouble?"

"Not really Kami, it's just-" he explained everything to her.

"Oh well I'm sure Maka would be happy to have a friend around her age. Most kids actually fear her due to her 'Maka-chops'." Kami chuckled nervously. Mr. Death chuckled knowing all to well the young girl got that from her mom.

"Thank you Kami. When do you think they can meet?" Lord Death asked. Spirit gasped in shock.

"Please no! My baby girl-" Spirit's cries were ignored.

"How about Tuesday?" Kami said.

"That sounds good." Death said.

"Are you two really just going to ignore me?" Spirit pouted.

...

Each day I would go to my play dates with Kid. He grew really attached to me, but I didn't mind at the time. One day as we played in his sand box, as we worked on building a 'symmetrical' sand castle, I said-

"Hey Kid don't you ever hate it that it's just me you have as a friend?" I ask as I placed a bucket of sand upside down on a clear spot.

"Of course not. I like you as my friend." Kid responded smiling and his golden eyes gleaming in the sunlight.

"I know but don't you want any other friends?" I say picking up a shovel and adding more sand on the castle.

"I'm perfectly fine with just you. Besides, you are the first person who is actually symmetrical, I've ever met." He says and dumps more sand on our structure.

"But what if- what if I-I want to make new friends." I say nervously. He stops abruptly and looks at me with a sad look on his face.

"But I thought you liked me as your friend." His eyes cloud with emotions, I see sadness, confusion, and anger?

"I do but I want to make more friends." I say. He slits his eyes and narrows his eyebrows.

"We are perfectly fine without others. We don't need them, people are mean and they always betray each other or they end up leaving." Kid gives me a serious look, this is the first time I saw it.

"But-" I sigh.

"Sorry Maka but it's the truth, I mean look at your mom and dad. My mom died and left my father too." Kid says. He is starting to get on my nerves.

"I know that already but that doesn't happen all the time! Not everyone's going to leave you Kid, I won't leave you." I say standing up.

"Exactly, I know you won't leave me, and I won't ever leave you, that's a promise. That's why we don't need others." Kid stands up too and we both grit our teeth and glare at each other.

"Hmph! Fine then maybe I will leave." he stares at me in shock. I look down at the floor and my bangs cover my eyes. I grab my small sweater and stomp off leaving a sad Kid behind.

"Maka! Maka please don't leave! You promised!" I hear him yell behind me soon I hear him sobbing. I look over my shoulder and feel guilty instantly. I run over to him and put my hand on his shoulder. I forget how sensitive he can be sometimes. "I'm sorry Kid, I didn't mean that." I say but he continues to cry. I pull him into a warm hug and let him sob on my shoulder, I start patting his back to comfort him.

"...You...promise..Hic!..you..won't leave?" he says in between sobs. I sigh in reply.

"Calm down Kid. Besides I can't seem to make any friends. The kids at school find me boring or mean." I say and pull his face away and cup it with my small hands. "Now stop crying or else I will leave." He immediately wipes away his tears but the small hiccups still remain. I wipe off the dried tears of his face with my sleeve. "There." I start to giggle.

"What?" He asks.

"You're so cute." I say and I see a light blush crawl to his cheeks.

...

{Middle school}

I sigh as I empty out my locker. This school year was yet another friendless school year. All thanks to my good friend Kid. I know we are childhood friends but a girl needs her space. I didn't know being Lord Death's son would give him that much power. When we graduated preschool Kid made sure we would go to the same elementary school, he made sure we would end up in the same class, and sat right next to each other. Each year. After elementary he persuaded his father into letting him go to my middle school instead of some private school. He arrived on the first day, sat next to me, sent a glare to a few kids who had been eyeing us. As we grew older the girls envied me so I could never make friends with them, the boys avoided me because they feared Kid so I remained friendless through out middle school with the exception of Kid.

Just recently I danced in my bedroom with joy as I found out Kid's father was forcing him to join some elite academy. I know I was the only thing he had growing up, and that he cares for me, but this meant freedom at last. Sorry Kid but I am really happy. I can't wait! I hid the name of the highschool I was joining from Kid to prevent him from 'visiting' me. I'm so glad, I can finally make some new friends. This is the highschool my mom went to. It's not ordinary that's for sure, but I know it's were I belong. It's called the DWMA. I'm supposedly what people call, a 'meister' and my job is to help the academy collect pre-kishen souls by using a 'weapon' partner. I'm so excited. I've secretly trained for this and I can't wait. I am pretty good at handling sythes, maybe it has something to do with my father being one but I do't know. The point is I'm going to have a fresh start.

Well that is what I thought.

...

I swung my legs over and off the bed as I got up. I got my outfit hanged by the closet. It was a white long sleeve dress shirt, yellow vest, striped tie, plaid skirt, and a black trench coat. I ran into the bathroom, took a quick shower, got changed and dried my hair. I tied it into my usual pigtails. I saddened as I remembered it was Kid who always liked my pigtails. He said they made me look 'symmetrical' and that I looked cute in them. I miss him, but that's too bad, from here on out I am finally free and independent, I mean I always was, it was Kid who was always dependent on me. Kid, there I go thinking of him again. I slap my face and shake my head, clearing my thoughts of him. Right now I need to worry about my first day of school and how I can make a good first impression on my classmates and teachers.

I served myself a quick breakfast, ate, then ran out the door. Papa would probably be mad for not telling him I left, but I seriously don't want to see his lying face anyway. I don't like him that much, ever since I was little since he cheated on my mama. The only thing good that came out of my childhood was becoming friends with Kid, ugh I seriously can't stop thinking about him for some reason. I'm probably just worried about him.

...

I arrive at my classroom. 'Class Cresent Moon.'

As I walk in I notice two things, one there is an albino staring at me as I walk in, two the teacher, Mr. Stein I believe, has a huge screw in his head.

"Um excuse me sir?" Mr. Stein looks up from some worksheets on his desk, at me.

"Call me Stein." He says blankly.

"Where do I sit?" I ask looking around at the rows of seats. The classroom is organized in a college sort of arrangement.

"Sit next to Soul." He says, "Soul raise your hand please."

The red eyed albino raises his hand. He grins at me showing off pointy teeth. Hmm he looks interesting, maybe we can be friends. But as I walk over to sit next to him I hear the girls start whispering about me. I sigh as I sit/slump down next to him. Not again! Fangirls are everywhere. (*1*)

"Hey what's up? You look down." He says to me I look up and my green gaze meets his red one. I'm about to open my mouth to say something until I hear Stein say:

"Oh go sit next to Maka. Maka raise your hand." I raise my hand and notice my seat mate is a tall girl with long black hair tied in a high ponytail. She friendly smiles and I smile back, she looks like a really nice person. She sits down next to me and introduces herself-

"Hi my name is Tsubaki, what's your name?" she asks. I smile. She could be a new friend!

"My name is Maka, Maka Albarn." I say

"Nice to meet you." Tsubaki flashes a sweet smile again. Suddenly a huge silver case is brought down on the desk, right in front of her. A pair of hands opens it to reveal a bunch of stacks of dollars. They are hundred dollar bills.

"I'll give you all this money if you let me sit here instead." says a voice I know all to well. I cringe in fear of looking up at him. I look over at Tsubaki who doesn't know how to respond, she is dumbfounded. I can hear the classroom erupt into chatter asking why anyone would pay someone that much money for a seat.

"Death the Kid, I assume." I hear Stein say. I look down at my hands not daring to look up.

"Yes that's right." Kid says.

"Sorry but you have to go to your assigned seat." Stein says and I sigh in relief until- "Unless Tsubaki accepts it, then you could sit there."

"W-well um." Tsubaki stutters. I don't have to look up to know that Kid is making that face he does that would make anyone obey his orders.

"W-well I-"

I'm doomed.
