I don't own Soul Eater or Everything Old is New Again. They belong to their respective owners.

But I do own Desmond Flint.


Desmond was my best friend growing up. After her father died, she moved in with my family. She became my sister, my shoulder to lean on when my dad was being stupid. But when I was 12 and she was 13 she told me she was going to the store. That was the last time I saw Desmond. She didn't come home that day. I found a letter on my bed after she left. It said that she had run away, but not to tell my parents. "If Spirit is a good godfather like he keeps telling me he is, he'll come looking for me. I'm sorry you had to get thrown into this too Maka. Love Desmond"

I wonder where she is now, if she is even still alive…

Desmond Flint…

Dee…

Maka and Soul sat in their seats listening to Stein's rants on dissection. Neither thought much of the day, it was just any other ordinary day. Soul kept claiming he heard loud crash like noises coming from Shinigami-sama's room, however Maka just dismissed each mention of a noise as a prank.

Later that day, as the two walked down the hall joined by Black Star and Tsubaki, Spirit and a petite girl dressed in maroon burst out of Shinigami-sama's room. She had her hood up and her back was to the four students so they couldn't see many details about her, all they heard was her voice as she yelled, "did you see how fast that burst into flames?"

"Yes, I did," Spirit replied obviously just to humor her.

"Well at least those three white lines on the left side of his head aren't the only things he has to worry about not being symmetrical," the girl said stretching her back. The Shibusen students exchanged glances as they all realized that the girl had just set Kid's hair on fire. Soul and Black Star began to laugh but were stopped by Tsubaki and Maka.

"Okay, okay! All is clear! You can come back in you two!" Shinigami-sama called out to Spirit and the petite girl. She bowed her head and said calmly to Spirit, "after you." She gestured to the doorway.

"No please, ladies first," Spirit said out of fear of being torched while she was trying to get back in to the fight.

She shrugged and pointed a finger to the ceiling and yelled, "FIRE IN THE HOLE!" as she ran back into the room leaving Spirit there amazed at what he had to deal with for the moment.

"Oi, Death Scythe!" Soul yelled to catch his attention. "What was that about?" Soul asked. Spirit just closed his eyes and shook his head before proceeding back into the room after the girl leaving the four students confused. They continued to walk down the hall towards Shinigami-sama's room and once they passed it they had every intention to continue until Kid ran out crying about his hair followed by Liz and Patty trying to calm him down.

"Can you believe what happened? I could never be symmetrical now! It's an impossible goal that I once dreamed of! I'm now garbage, just leave me out on the curb!" Kid shrieked to no one in particular.

As the Thompson sisters tried to calm down their OCD meister Maka turned to Soul. "Maybe we should go over and make sure he's okay," she suggested.

Soul closed his eyes and began to explain to Maka. "Nah, cool guys like me don't worry about people when they're making themselves look like idiots. If I went over there, it would make me look less cool like Kid." When Soul opened his eyes Maka and Tsubaki were gone and by Kid's side. Black Star wasn't there either; he was on his way over to Kid. Soul sighed and walked over to Kid with his friends. By the time he got over to the maniac he was already starting to calm down.

The seven friends waited patiently for the mysterious girl to come out but after a few minutes gave up and walked away.

"Who was that girl?" Maka asked Liz.

"Not sure. Her and her weapon just showed up today asking to be enrolled. Shinigami-sama didn't want to accept them without some sort of a test so he had the two of them fight Patty, Kid, and me. She wound up setting Kid's hair on fire when one of her attacks went awry," Liz explained.

Later that day Maka and Soul were sitting in their living room arguing over the next job they would take to get more souls. The argument went on until there was a short, loud knock at the door. The two stopped and looked up. Soul got up and opened the door.

"Hiya!" a familiar voice said cheerfully. Maka couldn't place it though.

"Do I know you?" Soul asked.

"Unless you were sleepwalking today. Your meister definitely knows me though. May we come in?"

Soul opened the door wider and let the perky girl and her friend in.

Maka looked up to see a girl with pin straight, black hair with gray highlights half way down her back and pale skin smiling down at her. She was wearing a maroon jacket with fake fur around the hood, black leggings, black rimed goggles with gray tinted lenses, and a studded black leather necklace with a tiger's eye gem pendent. Her hazel eyes were gleaming with excitement behind her goggles. The boy next to her was tan, had short, dark brown hair with dirty blond highlights and indigo eyes, and he didn't seem as excited as she did. He was much taller than his female companion.

"Do I know you?" Maka asked confused.

The girl pulled her hair into a ponytail with her hands and waited for a realization. Maka's eyes light up and she jumped off the couch and hugged the other girl.

"Maka you actually know her?" Soul asked.

"Of course I know her. It's Desmond!" Maka said.

Maka had told Soul about Desmond before but he never expected to meet her. However, Soul was still confused as to why he would know her.

"But why do you think I know you?" Soul asked.

"You were in the hall when I was talking to Spirit about setting that kid's hair on fire. Weren't you?" she asked.

"Oh yeah… That was you?" Soul wasn't very good at putting two and two together.

"Of course it was me." Soul held out his hand for a high five and Desmond has never been one to ignore a high five.

Maka looked at Desmond, "Is he the new victim?"

Desmond punched him. "No. He's my weapon." She smiled.


Don't throw your past away
You might need it some rainy day
Dreams can come true again
When everything old is new again…
