This is a one shot unless people want me to continue it. Please be nice it's not very good.
BEEP BEEP BEEP!
Tsubaki turned off the alarm and sat up in her bed groaning. Due to all the homework she had yesterday, she didn't go to bed until very late.
She went downstairs for breakfast as well as checking her answering machine for messages. There were two, one from her Mom telling her that this was the last mouth she was going to pay rent on the house and the other from her boss telling her that they fired her for coming in late. Great start of the day, it was only to get worse.
"Tsubaki." Stein called as she entered the school.
"Yes, professor?"
"I see that you don't have a meister yet." Stein observed.
"No professor," Tsubaki admitted.
"Tsubaki, you know the rules." Stein told her, "If you don't find a meister by tomorrow morning you'll be expelled from the school."
"I know sir." Tsubaki said, "I'll find one!" The bell rang and she ran off to class.
"Sorry I'm late!" Tsubaki panted as she ran into the classroom. The teacher nodded towards an empty chair and then continued the lesson. Tsubaki sat down and tried to find where they were but, she had missed too much of the lesson. She finally gave up and looked around for someone to help her. A boy in the row behind her was staring at her. She sighed, wishing Maka was here.
Maka was her best friend since first grade but after her mother got divorced, she left the city. Maka always told her that boy was staring at her because she was pretty. After she left though, some popular girls explained that Maka was only saying that to be nice. They said that boys stared at her because she was a freak. Tsubaki hoped they were lying but no boy ever tried to talk to her so she was unsure.
.
After classes, she went to find a partner. Of course, it always went the same way.
.
"Hi, I'm a meister what are you?"
"A weapon."
"I guessed that I mean what kind of weapon are you?"
"..."
"Your really shy aren't you?"
"Um yes."
"So what's your name?
"Uh Tsubaki,"
"Ok, nice meeting you Tsubaki,"
After that, an awkward pause would follow until the meister mumbled something about homework or a big game or meeting friends somewhere and left. Today was no exception.
After school ended, she went to find another job. She checked around but no places were hiring. After the sun went down she decided to go back home.
.
When she got home, she found that there was no food in the pantry. To tired to go buy something she ended grabbing a half bag of crackers and headed up to her room. She got into her pajamas and went to the window. Looking out she saw a bright star shining above her.
"Star light star bright, the first star I see tonight," It was such a little kid thing to do, wishing on a star but she was desperate.
"I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight." She paused for a moment. What should she wish for? Wishing for her life to get better was way too vague. What exactly in her life did she want?
"I wish I had a meister." She looked out of the window at the star. It seemed to glow brighter.
"Maybe it's thinking about my wish." She smiled at it. It's kept getting brighter and brighter. She smile faded. Was it coming towards her? She screamed and dived out of the way as the star went flying into her room. It crashed into the floor. Tsubaki walked over and tapped it. It groaned and turned over. It was a boy! Then the boy opened his eyes.
