Ch 2: Andre's first day. A hatred toward the keyblade?
Today he could just was going to suck he got up in a cold sweat not remembering the dream at 4:00 he then decided to take a shower since he was already up. Drying himself off he just remembered he hasn't checked on a very important item of his under his jacket, he checked his pocket watch which he regained after the attack in Home after he got dressed again to see if it still worked and to see if the pictures he kept in them were fine, as soon as he opened it he sighed with relief it was still ticking the pictures were still there one was of his friends and adopted family recently from left to right it was Wakka and Lulu married and expecting then there was Khimari with his horn grown back next was his soon to be Cousin-in-law Tidus holding his fiancée and Andre's step cousin Yuna (bringer of the eternal calm and wearing here FFX-2 attire) lovingly next was his adopted family His dad Cid, stepbrother Brother, and his stepsister Rikku. And in the other side was a photo of a single person his oldest, and dearest friend and since two years ago his girlfriend and love of his life Sarah. Putting the pocket watch back until the tears started flowing and went to the kitchen to see if he could cook something for Maka and the others since he and his keyblades were crashing here thinking it was the least he could do. When he got to the kitchen he thought of what he could cook he decided on pancakes, eggs, and bacon and said to himself "Good thing I'm a good cook". Maka was the next to wake up an hour earlier than when she thought every body would wake up but she heard sizzling coming from the kitchen and the smell of freshly made pancakes this not being normal got up from bed and went to the kitchen to see Andre cooking when he noticed her he said cheerfully "Morning Maka how do you like your eggs scrambled or sunny side up?" Maka taken back a bit she didn't answer right away "Uh sunny side up" Andre gave a mock salute "Right just sit down at the table I'm almost done with the first plate and since you're first come you're first serve." Maka went to sit down at the table and received a hot plate of sunny side eggs three pancakes and a few strips of bacon "Eat up I'm a pretty good cook if I say so myself." Maka then got back to her train of thought and asked her question after having a bit of food if she didn't know better because there was no chain like that in death city she'd say this was from the original house of pancakes "Andre this is great but why did you cook this?" Andre just shrugged as he continued cooking "Couldn't sleep at a certain point and thought this was the least I could do since you're letting me As and Div crash here." after that there was a rustling from the floor and couch "Speak of the devils, hey morning guys how would you like your eggs?" Div not a morning person muttered "Scrambled" Asura said the same "Alrighty two orders of scrambled and Maka how does Soul eat his eggs?" Maka swallowing some more food "He eats them scrambled also" He then turned back to the stove humming a tune she didn't recognize while Div and Asura sat down at the table also as there plates were made and Maka finished here food taking the plate to the sink "I'll wake up Soul" Andre finishing Soul's plate he finally started on his own breakfast. Maka expecting to take an earthquake to wake up soul she just let the aroma from the kitchen flow into Soul's room she then yelled loudly "Soul wake up or your food is going to get cold!" Soul slowly but surely got up from his bed "Wow Maka this smells better than usual what did you make?" Andre gave Soul his food when he got to the table and began to eat his breakfast "Actually Soul, Andre made breakfast this morning." Soul fully woke up at this comment "The guy can cook? Cool maybe I can ask him for pointers." He was being serious since Soul's cooking was at some points inedible "Maybe after class Soul." as soon as everybody was done eating everybody besides Andre took a shower and got dressed it was 6:00 when everybody was ready to go they all just said screw and went to the DWMA building. They were all walking up to the DWMA when Andre heard Someone talk loudly listing off some rules "First rule of assassination blend into the shadows...hold your breath...And wait for the target to let his guard down! Second rule of assassination Tune into your target; know his thoughts and actions!" Andre then noticed a spiky blue-haired kid with a Star on his shoulder wearing a sleeveless black shirt with a funnel like collar, black and white trousers with what looked like a short blade in his hand high up on a rooftop "You know to be an assassin you have to be silent," he then saw the blue haired kid try to kick Andre in the head from behind him 'the guy's fast' but he dodged it and countered with his J-shot kick to the kid's head making him double back with a bit of pain "And never underestimate your enemy, also you seem too much the rock star type to be an assassin." the kids blade flashed out of his hand and then there was an attractive girl who was taller than the kid "Sorry he was set with trying to assassinate you when he heard from soul that you were a new student, I'm Tsubaki Nakatsukasa and this is-" the kid interrupted her "I'm the great Black Star, you better watch out and stay out of my way because I'm going to surpass god!" Black Star laughed confidently. Asura and Div were thinking the same thing 'egotistical ass' while Andre just smirked "Like I thought Rock star type and you going to have to be faster than me to surpass god since I easily dodged and countered your attack but that's a good goal to aspire to." Black star smiled at Andre's comment "I like you Andre and since I'm such a big star I'll tell you I can go much faster when I use Speed Star." Andre played along with the since he never knew how to deal with these guys he then heard another voice from above "Ah there you are guys." Andre looked ip again to see a sixteen year-old boy wearing a very buisness looking black and white suit with black hair except for white stripes on one side of his hair and yellow eyes wielding dual pistols and riding a hover board, Andre had no idea who this guy was but he could tell he was strong and he then noticed that besides the hair this guy was absolutely symmetrical 'What with this guy?' The boy then took his gaze to Andre "Oh you must be the keyblade meister father told me about." Andre was confused now he didn't know any adults from this world except Stein and Death Sycthe "And your father would be?" The boy the landed release his weapon partners transforming back to girls in identical clothing with different hair styles, height, and... Other things being different. "I am lord Death's son." Andre even more confused "So your name Death Jr. or something?" this got a few laughs from Black Star, soul and the young reaper's partners "No my name is Death the Kid" Andre then understood "Okay then I guess Maka and the others just call you Kid?" he nodded "Yes and these are my partners Liz and Patty Thompson. And I must say for being a fabled keyblade meister you are absolutely ASYMMETRICAL!" Andre for some unknown reason felt offended "Excuse me? I am symmetrical look at my clothes symmetrical." Kid rubbed the bridge of his nose "Yes from the front but when you turn around," Andre did so and Kid pointed to the Jagged J on the back of his Jacket "See from the back that terrible letter makes you asymmetrical and your hair has an asymmetrical number of spikes pointing down and to top it all off you hair is also only parted to the left and none to the right!." Andre then smirked "You know you shouldn't be one to talk about asymmetrical hair Mr. Three Stripes." Kid then looked up to his hair with the three white stripes (or incomplete Sanzou Lines) he then burst to tears and went down to the floor "Your right I'm Garbage! Asymmetrical garbage!" Liz then face palmed "Now you've done it. Patty could you cheer him up in your special way?" Patty then saluted "Right Sis!" Patty then went to work on kid and got him to cheer up. Andre as a sign of apologizing stuck out his hand "Sorry bout bringing that up." Kid got a somewhat evil look in his eye "Don't worry about it. Anyway we need to get going to the DWMA." Andre then pulled out a paper he received from lord death telling what class he's in "Speaking of which could one of you guys show me to my class I'm in class crescent moon." all Three meisters smirked "That's our class we'll show you around."
When everybody got up to the top of the stairs to the school it was crowded and Andre noticed the few glares coming his way "Why is it every where I go I get dirty looks?" Maka then noticed something "Their not towards you but to you partners." Andre looked at Asura and Div "Why I thought there weren't any keyblades since my dad and his partner." Kid then replied "Exactly since there are so few they aren't recognized as actual weapons and seen as a mockery of swords." Andre then got an excited grin "Well if they got a problem I say bring it" Asura and Div sweat dropped "If there was ever a problem with Andre is that he loves to fight." Maka grinned "Well let's go if we get there soon enough I could show Andre Soul perception."
In classroom crescent moon
"Wow soul perception is amazing! But gotta say Maka your soul is a bit smaller then I expected." Makka's eyebrow twitched "I just need to get stronger now I'm going look at your soul Andre." Maka then closed her eyes and gasped in surprise "What Maka?" she then responded to his question "Oh nothing your soul is pretty big though it's about the size of your chest I wonder how big it would be when your resonating." There was then an opening of the door Andre turned and was in some despair now "Your kidding my dad's wack job class mate is the professor of the class? I wonder.." he then used soul perception to see Stein's soul and he was surprised to say the least "Holy Shit his soul is bout three times as big as his body!" Stein looked up calmly and saw Maka with Andre while everybody else was talking on the other side of the empty class room since it was a half hour till class actually started "Ah I see you learned soul perception Andre, thank you for teaching him Maka." Maka nodded as Stein continued "Now Andre since been about twenty five years since we had a keyblade meister I'm going to have you fight three meisters one at a time you can choose one of them have any requests?" Andre then looked to kid "Yeah can I fight Kid last?"Stein then wrote something on the clip board "Done and I'm going to have to ask you and your partners sit up front near my desk so I can introduce you and right your names on the whiteboard." Andre, Asura, and Div got up and did so and by the time they were done the bell rang and everybody came in and say down Stein cranked his screw again "Now today will be different from the last few days because we have three new students today you may introduce yourselves." Andre got up from his seat "Hey morning my name is Andre Inferno and I'm a keyblade meister." there were a few murmurs mostly about his surname and his weapon of choice. It was then Asura's turn "How ya doing I'm Asura Inferno and I'm a keyblade weapon and one of Andre's partners and his older brother." there were more murmurs mostly about his first name. Lastly was Div she was bit meek at first but gained her confidence "And I'm Andre's and Asura's sister also a keyblade and Andre's other partner." the was then a big outburst from a student in the top row "Keyblades aren't even weapons they're just a mockery of actual blades." Stein then penciled in his clipboard "I was going to say since it's been twenty five years since the last keyblade meister and weapon pair so we're you going to put this trio through the paces three meisters one round each no fatal attacks and the round ends when the other collapses Kid is already third to fight and we seem to have our first Misune, bring you and your partner Masa Mune down here." the black haired kid then jumped down with a silver haired kid with him "With pleasure Professor Stein." Masa then transformed into a long katana in Misune's hand "Let's see what joke weapons can do." Andre was starting to get pissed 'this kid is cocky and needed to be taken down a peg' he opened his hands and held them out to his side as Div and Asura transformed and landed in his left and right hand a Andre got into a favored fighting position while Kid was complaining that the keyblades weren't even symmetrical "Misune you know what I hate?" He raised an eyebrow "What?" Andre then ran fast and before Misune knew it he was behind him and slashed at him and kicked him hard in the back of the head and replied "Punks who insult my family and underestimate me." He charged forward Misune blocked his attack with Divinity or so he thought Andre smirked and said "Soul resonance: Dark Wave." his soul then grew to encompass his body and did an upward swing with Forevermore and out shot out at Misune making in fly into the wall crack it and fall down knocked out Andre smirked and said before anybody could object " He should be alive none of my special
Moves can kill anyway next up and I suggest you take me and my weapons seriously." there was silence everybody was surprised to see a new student able to win so easily against one the top 5 fighters in the class then a bald head came and walked down with his partner that turned into what looks like a spear "I Ox meister of the Royal Thunder challenges you," Andre shrugged "ok I thought I said to take me seriously but oh well." Ox was then rambling about his power this really got on Andre's nerve he charged Ox and quickly attack and without anytime to block Ox got disarmed quickly and knocked on his ass "You talk too much Ox, aw well kid your up." Kid just smirked as he walked down and Liz and Patty followed in suit and transformed into twin pistols as Kid caught them in and held them in an odd fashion with his pinkies on the triggers "For the record Andre I was curious to see what a keyblade meister could do." Andre got into a fighting position "I'm just as curious to see what a Reaper can do so let's begin" before either could come at the other Stein held out his hand to post pone the other "Unfortunately we don't have time so I suggest to decide who's strongest here is that you resonate to your limit and attack at the same time." They nodded and moved to opposite sides of the room and said simultaneously "Soul Resonance!" for those using soul perception to determine who would win it would be Kid because during the resonance his soul encompassed his body and the cannons that his pistols transformed into while Andre just very easily spun his keyblades until Forevermore turned in to a ball of black energy and Divinity one of white energy as his soul barely encompassed his entire body. Kid then kneeled and pointed the cannons at Andre and said "Death Cannon" and fired while Andre threw both his weapons at the two projectiles coming from Kid cannons and said "Big Bang: Double shot" as the four projectile met in the middle of the clash room they clashed trying to force the other attack out of the way and everyone was in awe of the demonstration of power but it only lasted half a minute has Divinity and forevermore shot out of the way of the two giant pink balls of energy as they went toward Andre he muttered "Oh shi-" BOOM and there was then a giant black cloud where Andre was and some of the cloud formed into Lord Death's mask and as the smoke cleared Andre was flat on his back knocked out Div and Asura transformed back an hoisted him up and stein went over to them "That was fairly impressive Andre anyway you need to go to the lower part of the school your 'vehicle' is there for you to start repairs on it after class." Andre then took his seat next to Maka as Div and Asura took seats behind him. "Now back to our regular schedule to prepare for the exam next month."
Entrance of Death city
There was then a huge flash of light as two Figures stepped forward first was a man with white hair and hazel nut eyes wearing black and red clothes and same colored trenchcoat about in his late thirties and a woman wearing Black and silver with brunette hair and ruby red eyes in her early thirties both with smiles on their faces "Look Cass we made it back home after what Twenty five years it's good to see Death city again." Cassandra came up to her husband "It is Dante but I would've preferred going to radiant garden to get Andre and Asura." Dante nodded and sighed "Yeah but we've been away from him for fifteen years do you think he'll remember or recognize us? Oh well that thing was a one trip deal lets go to Lord Death to beg for forgiveness of taking one of his death scythes and one of his best meisters away." Cass kissed him on the cheek "I think he'll understand since we were taken away and we didn't willingly leave." They then walked down to the DWMA having no idea they had more than just Lord Death to deal with.
