"Father, you needed me?" Kid walked nonchalantly into the death room, staring into the face of his father. Lord Death.
"Yes, Kid. Good to see yah, how yah doing?" Kid sat down in his chair and continued staring.
"Fine, thank you."
"Alrighty than! I have a big mission for you, Kid!" Lord Death exclaimed, bouncing around. Kid's eyes narrowed.
"What's it about?"
"Well, it seems we have a bow miester who has been eliminating evil souls around Death City." Lord Death explained.
"Miester's are supposed to do that." Kid said, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Ah yes, but this miester is not a student at the academy. And their very powerful. I want you to find this miester and convince them to become part of the academy before any of the DWMA's enemy's get to them first." Lord Death explained. Kid nodded.
"Should I move now?" Kid asked. Lord Death went over to his mirror and glanced at Kid.
"I'd like you to see how powerful your opponent is, that is, if they resist you." Kid nodded and watched the mirror. Lord Death activated it and a girl with jet black hair and blood-lust red colored eyes flashed on the mirror. Kid sat forward in his seat.
"This was taken from last night, down town in Death City. She's been eliminating souls all over though, so she won't be here when you look for her." Lord Death pointed out. The mirror switched from the photo to a video of a fight. It showed the girl fighting a clown that was trying to consume a small child. The girl was shooting glowing red arrows at the monster. Kid raised a brow.
"What is she shooting?" He asked his father.
"Soul arrows. They are pulled directly from the soul and are very risky when it comes to fights. Her soul weakens each time she uses them." Kid nodded and continued watching. The girl jumped up on the clowns head and began Soul Resonance. He body lined up perfectly with the moon in the background.
"She's got such symmetry!" Kid raved, little sparkles in his eyes.
"Watch her eyes at this part." Lord Death interrupted. Kid watched at the girls red eyes became a darker, scarier red. Filled with hate.
"Her soul is quite different from a normal one as you can see here, and her eyes aren't supposed to change colors..."
"Is she really just a miester, Father?" Kid asked, becoming serious again.
"Black Nightmare!" The video screamed. The girl's arrows sliced through the clown and Lord Death stopped the video.
"We can only guess for now, but your mission stays the same. Will you be able to do this, Kid?" Lord Death said, floating back into the mirror. Kid nodded. He exited the death room full of confidence, and glanced over to Patty and Liz who had been waiting patiently.
"Let's go."
"Alright!"
"Onii-chan! Onii-chan! Onii-chan! Onii-chan! Onii-chan! Onii-chan! Onii-chan!"
"SHUT UP! UGH, CAN WE KILL IT ALREADY?" I yelled at the top of my lungs. Haru grabbed Kazu and made sure the distance between us was 5 rooftops.
"No! He's completely alone and needs a home right now!" He yelled. I narrowed my eyes as they grew darker.
"Look for an orphan shelter than!" I flipped my hair over my shoulder and shrugged off my coat. The air was growing humid.
"THAT'S HORRIBLE!" Haru cried, returning to my side. I scoffed.
"So is that brat; it's perfect for him." Haru glared at me and I glared back.
"You know, you of all people should understand his current situation." And with that, Haru had his back to my face. My jaw was dropped open. How could he say that? I then prepared to punch his head.
"WHY YOU-"
"Stop right there!" A voice called. I turned my head and saw a boy with black hair and 3 white stripes in it.
"What the hell?" I said. Haru looked too and burst out laughing. Our opponent twitched with anger and held the two guns up, pointed at us.
"Why do you laugh the face of a grim reaper?" My eyes glared hard at him. This guy's a grim reaper? Pssh, this is child's play. He's from the academy. Lord Death's child, right?
"Your Death The Kid." I said. He smirked.
"Correct. And your Sora Urameshi, a powerful Bow Miester." Heh, this guy knows who I am.
"What do you need?" I asked, giving Haru my fighting look. He nodded and transformed in my hands.
"I want you to join the academy. I have no intention of fighting if not nessacary." Kid responded. I smirked.
"I'd like a good fight." I said. Kid sighed.
"Ready Patty, Liz?"
"YUP!" His weapons responded. He made the first move, jumping into the air for an Arial attack. I smirked and shot arrows at him from the ground. He shot them and they exploded, sending us flying away from each other. Kid in the air, and me through the roof of the apartment. I crashed through 3 ceiling before catching myself.
"Careful, Sora!" Haru called. I smacked the bow.
"Shut up! I got this!" I hopped up from the building, avoiding the eyes of the people inside. Once I was back on the roof I shot bigger arrows at my opponent. He dodged them all.
"Damn, he's good..." Haru said. I pulled out my biggest arrows yet and prepared to shoot. Death the Kid looked frustrated.
"Don't do it!" I looked at my weapon.
"I'll get him with these! Just shoot!" I said. Haru turned back into a human and my arrows disappeared. I glared at him.
"Haru! Transform NOW!" I commanded. Haru shook his head.
"You're going to really hurt yourself if you use your soul that much!" I scowled and looked over to Kid. He was watching amusedly. Little Kazu was running around the apartment roof, carefree as could be. I sighed.
"I'll do it. I'll transform. You know I will. Just change back if you don't want me too." Haru went pale and looked around for something to say.
"I-I can't let you..." Kid looked at Haru suspiciously.
"Transform?" I turned to him and smirked.
"Let's go, Soul Resonance!" Haru immediately was in weapon form again, but not from his choice.
"Stop! You'll get hurt! STOP SORA!" I ignored Haru's calls and my eyes turned darker and darker. Till they were black. Then, I lost consciousness.
~:Kid's POV:~
Haru turned into a giant black sword that was dripping with the girls black soul. She laughed crazily.
"BLACK MADNESS!" She threw down her blade, aiming for me directly. 'Shit!' I tried jumping back, but the sword was locked on. Until a small boy jumped in front of me. 'WHAT?' Sora's eyes became red again and she swung her blade sideways, chopping the roofs of every building for a mile. She dropped Haru and fell to the ground. I sighed in relief. The battle of was over.
~:Sora's POV:~
I was in Death City. I looked around, wondering why. Hadn't I been fighting that reaper?
"Haru!" I called. No one came. No one was even there. The city looked- abandoned. I walked through the empty streets and sighed. What should I do?
"Are you enjoying the power?" A female voice said. I looked around. Still no one.
"Do you feel like you could kill everything in one blow? Share the madness?" Was it coming from the sky.
"Who's there?"
"You know exactly who's there, Sora." I suddenly felt my arms go tight. I looked down and gasped. The snake slithered to my face and hissed.
"L-Lady Medusa..."
"Please, honey. Call me mommy."
~Kid's POV:~
"Great job, Kid! I expected nothing less!" My father congratulated. I smirked.
"No problem, Father." He left the mirror and returned to the death room, as I sat in the infirmary, staring at the girl. After the nurse had gotten all of her clothing off and into the white cloth, she looked quite peaceful- compared to the death-obsessed girl who had wanted to kill me a couple of hours ago. Her long black hair swept around her face and down to her waist. I almost wanted to smile, but her jerking body made it hard to.
"She seems to be having a nightmare." The nurse had said, but it seemed much more than that. Just a minute earlier she had been screaming in pain, having 2 or 3 nurses holding her down before injecting medication to calm her down.
"Madness..." I repeated. She has madness inside of her. Her weapon stood at her side, holding her hand quietly. He looked quite upset. But he told Father everything we needed to know. He didn't care of the consequences or the doubt for his punishment, he just wanted his miester to be alright. At least he cared. Sora and Haru had fought when they were fighting me. Miester's and weapons have to work together for success. No doubt that's why she lost. Or maybe it was just the little boy. Kazu. Kazu was curled up next to her, hugging her arm gently. He had cried the whole was to the DWMA, screaming that his Oka-san had to wake up. I thought for a second. Did Haru and Sora have...Kazu? Haru had refused my questions and only accepted my fathers. Sheesh, what a troubling group.
"Why are you still here?" Haru asked quietly. I sat up from my seat and looked at him.
"Your miester was my mission. I need to make sure it was a success..." I responded. He glared at me and I stayed emotionless as he wafted over and sat beside me.
~:Sora's Pov:~
I slowly opened my eyes and gave a quick scan of the room. The reaper sat on a bench a couple of feet away, Haru was next o him sleeping and little Kazu was curled up next to me. I sat up and Kid walked over and buckled down my hands and feet. I sat still as he lifted my wrists and ankles to strap them down. No struggle. Kid stood next to the bed and examined my expression. I looked down to Kazu and picked him up as far the restraints would let me and held him in front of me. He was still asleep and looked..kinda cute. I placed him in my arms and held him lovingly. This child...
"Where did this boy come from?" Kid asked. My head snapped towards him, forgetting he was even there and scowled.
"Let me out of here. I don't need to be here." I put Kazu in Kid's hands. He looked at the sleeping child incredulously, and gave me a sigh.
"Your joining the academy. That is final." Kazu slowly woke up and looked up at Kid warily with sleep eyes. Then he screamed. Kid just held him in mid-air not knowing what to do with him. I scowled and grabbed him back into my arms. I gently rubbed his back and whispered quiet soothing words until he was fast asleep again.
"Hmph, not as cold and heartless as you want everyone to believe, eh?" I looked at Kid and then back at Kazu. So what? The kid was cute, I'll give him that. And it's like Haru said, I have no choice but to keep him...Right?
"Where are my clothes?" Kid's cheeks turned at bit rosy and he nodded and walked away. I raised an eyebrow. What's up with the reaper? He quickly returned, my clothes neatly folded in his hands. He reached out his hands and looked away from me.
"Take them already!" He said. I looked at him blankly and snatched the clothing out of his hands.
"Gee, thanks."
...
"Well?" Kid shivered.
"Aren't you going to leave? I have to get dressed." I said. He shook his head, his rosy cheeks warming further.
"I'm not suppose to leave your side till I can escort you to the Death room...Those are my instructions." Kid said warily, taking a seat on the bench and staring at me. He crossed his arms and prepared me to mawl him or something, but I stood up from the bed, and broke the restraints easily.
"Then I'll change." Kid's face went completely red and he stood up abruptly.
"What are you doing? How can you give up that easily! Aren't you going to argue with me?" I shook my head and started taking off the paper dress.
"I have to change somehow, don't I?" Kid flew back having an nosebleed and had his back face me.
"Such an informal-unsymmetrical women..." He mumbled. I grinned to myself and placed on my bra, then over it, bandages to hide my boobs. To complete my dressing, I put my leggings, dress, coat, boots, and finally, my top hat.
"You can look. I'm finished." Kid slowly turned his head and sighed in relief. But he was suddenly struck with my baseball bat.
"OW! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?" On the baseball bat was the label "forget me stick".
"I hit you with the forget my stick." I said plainly.
"What the heck? I still remember everything quite clearly-"
WAM!
"Now yah don't." I said sweetly, kicking past the unconscious boy on the floor. I lifting Kazu up to my shoulder and he woke up startled. We stared at each other before he understood. I had trust in him.
"Wake up Haru. Were leaving." Haru was up in seconds, into a bow form in my hands.
