A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and sound body.
...
Maka, Soul, Black*Star, and Tsubaki walked into their next class and found seats in the third row and continued to chat until the late bell rang and class to begin.
" Alright class, quiet down. We will be working on DWMA History, take out your text books and turn to page twenty seven."
Soul and Maka did as they were told while Black*Star, who didn't bring a single thing with her, had to share with Tsubaki.
" Alright Tsubaki, if the teacher asks, we'll say it's mine." Black*Star siad with a smirk.
Tsubaki sweated. " O-of course."
A while later after reading, the class was asked questions, with Maka and Ox Ford answering them. Soul sweated at the now competition going between the two.
" Alright one last question! What was the Kishin's name that Lord Death fought 8 centeries ago?"
N-name!? Maka frantically searched his book but unfortantly wasn't quick enough.
" Yes Ox Ford?"
" The Kishin's name is Asura, one of the most powerful antagonists Lord Death has fought."
" And...correct you are. You get ten extra points for today."
The class bell rang shortly and as everyone filed out, the other three tried to tell the fuming Maka how smart he was.
Soul sighed with an exasparated look after everyone was finally able to go to their next class. Looks like Maka has already gained an enemy in under 4 hours. But it didn't stop her from giving a small laugh.
All her life, she hadn't had much friends to hang out with and now here she was, laughing along with three others with their own distinctive personalities.
Maka noticed Soul's big smile and smiled back as well. He hadn't noticed how pretty Soul looked until now.
" Hey. Maka? Um... do I have something on my face?" Maka stopped his staring and blushed while scratching his cheek lightly with his index finger.
" O-oh no! I-I just..."
" Checking her out!" Black*Star yelled out unneccisarly.
" Was not!" Maka agrued.
Soul and Tsubaki just laughed.
Maybe coming to this school wasn't so bad.

...
It was the end of the day, not to Soul's liking, but understood that there was always tomarrow.
The four parted ways into pairs, leaving Soul and Maka walking together down the streets of Death City.
" Say, where do you live?" Maka asked. Soul blinked in surprise before biting the bottom of her lip and looking down.
" Actually, I'm suppose to be at my dorm back at school but I have to go...do something."
Maka could understand that she needed to do " that something" and decided to go ahead and leave her to do her business.
" Right. Well I live pretty close to school, so maybe on the weekends we could hang out sometime!" The girl looked up before giving a small smile.
" Sure!" Maka bed goodbye before running off, leaving Soul by herself.
Truth be spoken, Soul didn't really have anything to do. She just wanted to stay with him a bit longer.
Her cheeks began to heat up.
Is this what having friends feel like? Having to cling onto eachother until the last minute, not knowing we have months?
And with that, she gave one last look at the direction Maka had went before turning back to and going to the dorms.
If that was the case...
Soul walked into her room that shared with nobody and flopped onto her bed. She curled onto her side and thought about tomarrow and gave a cheeky grin.
The I can't wait to see them tomarrow!
... Are We Able To Identify Each Other's Feelings? ...
Maka walked into the apartment his mother had left for him and feel onto his couch.
Today had been great! He met new friends, got the perfect partner...
Maka looked down with a the corner of his mouth turned up. The perfect partner huh? She was so fragile and beautiful and...and...
He couldn't think of anything else. He didn't want to. Maka took out his homework and started on it to get his mind off of Soul.
...
It was now nightime and Tsubaki had just finished his meal though was surprised to find his partner not at the table.
He sat up and tried not worry and looked around the house.
" Black*Star!" He called out as he made his way upstairs and found Blackstar's door closed. There she was.
He opened the door and walked in.
" There you are! I made a dinner a while ago and-..."
Black*Star was staring dumbfoundingly along with Tsubaki as the two stared at eachother.
Tsubaki's eyes wondered down as the matching bra and underwear the girl was wearing until he caught the dark stare.
" B-black*Star-"
" I'll kill you!"
" W-wait Black*Star!"
...
Morning...
Maka yawned and streched on the couch he had fallen asleep on. Sitting up, he organized his papers and could hear the faint noise of his alarm going off in his bedroom.
Maka hadn't noticed how emtpy the apartemnt was until now. He didn't know why he had all of a sudden discover this, but he had this strange urge to have someone else live with him.
O-of course I don't want 'her' to move in. That would be just plain ridiculous.
Maka shook his head and went to shower quickly and change into another outfit
...
Soul got of the shower wrapped a towel around her body. It was the second day of school and she was actually prepared this time.
She looked at her bed and noticed that her weekly allowance. Maybe she could use that to take her friends out to the coffee shop after school.
Soon after the girl was situated, she grabbed her bag and swung it over her shoulder before stepping out.
This time... she thought, I won't let Maka down in class.
Soul was ready to show that she could transform into a perfect scythe that is able to slay kishins and that hers and Maka's wavelengths could match and create and even stonger bond.
...
Maka caught sight of Soul and waved high, catching the girl's attention and ran to catch up.
" Hey! Sleep well?"
" Yeah. I think I'm ready for the transition class now."
" That's the spirit!" Maka congratulated.
The two found Black*Star and Tsubaki and caught up to the assassins.
" Hey guys!"
" Oh hello." Tsubaki greeted kindly.
" Since I consider you guys worthy of me, I'll say hello! Hyahaha!" Once again, the rest just sweated at the girl's nonsense.
...
Already on their second period, Maka decided to use it for his studies and made his way to the music room, where he had first met Soul. Speaking of her, he wondered if the girl was in there playing the grand piano right now
Maka walked in and closed the door behind him, almost smiling when he heard that familiar song.
" Soul?" Indeed, the owner of the name turned her head fast but relaxed a little when she found who it was.
" Oh. Hey Maka. Why are you here?"
Maka smirked and walked over to the girl, his steps echoing across the tiled floor.
" Oh I was just planning fo get some work done but obviously I can't now."
" Ah! I'm sorry! I didn't know you were...I mean-" Maka laid a hand on the girl's shoulder to stop her frantic movement.
" It's fine. Actually, I was hoping to hear more of it." Aftter Soul processed this her face turned red as she stuttered.
" Y-you w-w-want to h-here me play?" Her voice ended with a squeak.
" If it is alright with you? You play beautifully!" This only seemed to make the said girl more embarrassed until she was finally able to pull herself together.
" Ah um...s-sure." This made Maka light up and he sat beside Soul on the piano chair and waited patiently for her to begin.
Soul bit her bottom lip as she stared anxiously at the keys.
What should I play? What do I do!? Oh god he's watching me!
Her hands trembled as she placed her finger over certain keys and took a deep breath before closing her eyes.
Maka's breath hitched as he listened to the piece she was playing. She didn't even need sheet music!
Maka closed his eyes, enjoying the calming sound. It sounded like a peaceful jazz.
" Heeeellloooo!?" The two jumped, and Soul accidently slammed a finger on a wrong key out of shock.
Black*Star and Tsubaki walked in and up to the two other's who were completely in embarrassment.
" Hey Tsubaki. I think we interrupted something." Black*Star snickered. Tsubaki even gave a smal chuckle.
" F-for your information, I was listening to Soul play!" Maka countered. Black*Star leaned down and walked closer to Maka, who blushed even more when the shirt-covered breasts were right in front of him.
" Admit it, you wanted to be alone with her!" Black*Star yelled in amusement.
" Oh dear..." Tsubaki said as he watched the two argue.
Soul got up from her seat and stood back as she watched Black*Star sit on Maka's back and stretch his cheeks.
" Stchop itch!"
" Not until you admit it!"
...
Later, it was time to go after the bell ring, that's how long it took to get Black*Star to get off of Maka.
" We'll see you at lunch?" Tsubaki said with a reassuring hand on his partner.
" Sure." Soul answered, while glancing occasionally at her fuming partner.
Soul and Maka made their way to P.E., the only class Soul didn't really enjoy really well because of the uniforms, but that didn't stop her from joining her partner to the feilds.
" Today, we will be testing on your acrobatic skills. Great with climbing tall buldings or poles while fleeing the enemy or reaching them faster. I want my men on one side and my ladies on this one. We have the poles out to look for how well you do with your climbing, these ropes, and how jow you can jump, and you flips."
" See you after class. Tell me how you do later 'kay?" Maka whispered as they stepped apart.
Soul nodded and made her way over to the women's side. Maka's last name began with a name so he was first, having Soul to be able to watch him
He was very good indeed. His flips were clean and he was able to climb to the top of his rope with no knots.
" Maka Albarn! 100!"
Soon it was soul's turn for the women's side and it was Maka's turn to watch how the girl did. Just as Maka, she was able to pass through the tests though the coach let her slide when she landed on wobbly legs.
While they waited for everyone else to complete their tests, Maka began talking excitedly about what they would do if they ever made it to the EAT class.
" My mom won't even expect this! Then, once she learns that can't be a death scythe anymore, she'll have to get a job and start going back to taking care of... herself more properly and-"
" Wow...you really are excited about removing your mother."
" Of course I am! Once your a death scythe, I'll have mom back to- to..." Maka suddenly heard his words and began to rapidly shake his hands.
" W-wait! It's not what you thought I meant!"
" Oh no I understand haha! Once I'm thrown away to Death, you'll be able to have a proper family! Isn't that what you said?"
Maka could see the hurt in her eyes as she tried to stay posotive.
" Soul no I really-"
* tweeeeeet* " Class dismissed!"
" Soul wait!" But the girl was already gone. Maka dropped his arm and watched as the other students ran off to the locker rooms.
What have I done?
