Deep in the desert there are the remains of an old castle, hidden by the sands save for the high towers. Not the most welcoming place, but it was here, in the lower halls that Kid was now, searching for some old scrolls that were hoarded here years ago.
It was a simple enough mission...more of a bother than anything else, really. But Kid accepted that it was his job to do the minial tasks so that his father wouldn't have to deal with the pestering questions of some other student. Lord knows that he'd destest it...
'Finally!' Smiling to himself, Kid pulled the scrolls from the old trunk and set them in the black shoulder-sling bag he'd brought along. "Found it," he announced, earning a groan from Liz.
"Thank god! I thought we were gunna be here FOREVER!" She complained. "C'mon, Patty! We're leaving!"
On que, Patty leapt up from playing with the old toys she found on the floor and started cheering before they both resumed their weapon form, Kid tucking them both into holsters on the inside of the bag so they were out of the desert sun.
In no time the young shinigami was up the stairs and out, soaring and leaving the ruins in the distance. In a daze, he was able to ignore the heat and admired the way the sands glimmered like gold and embedded with millions of little diamonds.
It may not be symmetrical, but it was a wonderous sight that he had come to admire a lot growing up. He could still remember when he was little and would look out the large windows of the Adacdemy, trying to catch a sight of the beautiful sands past the many houses and buildings.
However his peaceful moment was cut short when a blast from below suddenly knocked him off of his board, making him fall from the sky and onto the harsh sands below.
"Kid! What happened!?" Liz panicked, still in weapon form.
"Stay where you are," Kid ordered, his eyes darting around his surroundings, barely able to see anything past the rising sand around him.
"Looking for me~?" It was an older woman's voice, harsh as though she'd been wondering for some time with no way to quench her thirst. Kid's eyes kept darting about as he remained low to the ground, trying to keep from view, confident that she was unable to see him though she obviously felt his presence there. "You've taken something of mine, boy. I want it back."
Kid, unwilling to give away his position by speaking, quickly and quietly moved across the sand, trying to use the cover to his advantage and escape before she could attack again.
"ANSWER ME WHEN I SPEAK TO YOU!" It came a shrill cry before he felt another blow come, knocking him onto his side as he felt a sharp pain shoot up his left leg.
His mind overcome with pain, he was unable to pick himself back up before he felt a sharp jab at his chest, forcing him on his back. He looked up, seeing a form shroweded in a white robe, a large hood covering their face.
"Well, well...What a disrespectful little child you are...Think I won't kill you just because I'm a woman?"
Kid raised a brow at that. "Come again?" What the hell did her being a woman have to do with anything?
"And that voice before! That was your weapon, wasn't it? Didn't accept her help because she's a woman?!"
"...What?" Kid was completely confused. He shook his head to clear his thoughts, as though the woman in front of him was some idiotic hallucination that he could simply will away. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. "Look, I don't know what's happened to you, but I've never held any gender stereotypes," 'This woman is nuts!'
But the old bat was ignoring the shinigami entirely. "I think I'll just have to teach you a lesson! For stealing my scrolls and disrepecting me, I shall make your ignorance clear to all!"
The end of her staff, still resting on Kid's chest glowed to a bright orange, a surge of something corsing through him before in a panic, Kid knocked the staff away, making the old woman stumble and giving him the opening he needed to get away.
As he soared at break-neck speed, Kid still clutched his chest, wincing in pain and wondering what the hell that woman did to him.
