Disclaimer: I do not own these characters except for Chrysanthemum and Black Thorn. Now other characters from these two animes may show up
that were not the four I selected so bear with me. I also have a few other creatures from some books show up as well; like from the Midnighters
series by Scott Westerfeld. There will also be a familiar enemy from Xena that will show up too.
Chapter 1
It is my first day here at Death Weapon Meister Academy. I'm sitting in my first class, feeling very bored. Up at the front of the classroom,
Shinigami-sama is addressing us. Suddenly, he says, "Mr. Evans, mind giving us a demonstration." My twin brother Black Thorn smiles and walks
down to the front. I bite my lip and then instantly regret it. I wind up biting too hard and piercing my bottom lip with my shark-like teeth. Black Thorn
turns toward the rest of the class and asks, "Can my sister help with this?" Shinigami-sama nods his consent. I grin, stand on top of the desk in a
crouch, and leap off, twirling in mid-air. My brother shifts into his claymore form as I grab him in the middle of my twirling. I do a flip in the air, land,
and swing him around my head. I end the display with a very flourished bow. When I end the bow, I feel myself become the weapon while my brother
becomes me. That bastard! He is always doing this to me. I remind myself to slap him later. Everyone is stunned into silence. Lord Death starts
clapping really loudly. "Well done you two. See students. That is how a real Meister/Weapon work. Now I want the weapons to pair up with a
Meister. Chrysanthemum why don't you pair up with Martin. Black Thorn, you can pair up with Alex." Black Thorn finally allowed me to return to my
body. I walked over to a boy with bright orange hair and forest green eyes. "Hi, I'm Martin. I turn into a katana. Would you like to try soul resonance
with me?" I'm a little skeptic. The only one I have tried soul resonance with was Black Thorn, seeing as how we are twins. "Sure, I guess. Don't blame
me if something goes wrong, okay?" "Sure, Chrysanthemum. Mind if I call you 'Anthemum." I smile and say," You can call me that or Chrys or Mum but
never call me An. I hate that." Martin nods and transforms. I take a hold of him and reach for his soul wavelength. "Soul Resonance" I shout.
Suddenly, I am thrown backwards and hit my head on the wall. Martin is thrown backwards into the girl my brother is paired with, thereby knocking
her down. "Damn. I warned you didn't I? Baka!" Black Thorn laughs, comes over to me and offers his hand to lift me off the floor. I rub the back of my
head, making sure I wasn't bleeding. "Well, I guess we will still have to be paired, uh Mum?" I playfully punch Black Thorn and we laugh. The bell
rings, signaling that class is over. I absorb my brother and off we go to our next class.
