Just to clarify: 'This' is for thoughts and of course "This" is for speaking :P Hahaha Look at me! 2 chapters in a single day! O_O

Chapter 2 Suspicion and Departure

Kid knew that something wasn't right. In the infirmary his mind had been clouded in a thick fog and his movements sluggish. His mind had now begun to clear and he recognized the signs immediately. He had been poisoned. Being a Grim Reaper he was immune to toxins and healed much faster then any normal human being. Whatever had been forced into his system was lethal, strong enough to effect a reaper, though it only succeeded to make him a little drowsy and probably would have killed a normal person.

'Too bad that I'm not a normal person.' If he were then he would be dead.

The blue haired woman popped into his thoughts. She had been about to administer something to him before he had stopped her. What was that substance? She never did tell him, she was a definite suspect. What was her name again? Layla...No that didn't sound right...Lucy...No too plain it was something a little more strange.

Lucky.

Kid frowned. Who named there child Lucky? Then again he wasn't one to comment on odd names. He faintly remembered the exchange between the two of them...Before he blacked out. He had showed her his student ID as she didn't seem to know who he was. Oddly enough. Why would she try to poison him if she didn't even know who he was? Then again it could have been an act on her part. Nonetheless he would have to look into it. If his suspicions were correct then he would have to take the matter up with his father. Though he waned to do a little investigating first.

He knew all too well what could happen if he jumped to conclusions. What had happened with Asura was enough to prove that. He didn't trust in the person who he should have trusted the most. Doubting, suspecting and lacking faith in his own father.

Kid pushed open the doors to Gallows Manor before bee'linging for the Kitchen. He didn't even make it that far.

Kid felt his eye twitch as he took in the state of his living room. Nail polish bottles, napkins, empty chip packets and other bits and pieces littered the once clean area. He had been gone not even a day and the twin demon pistols had already trashed the place.

"Liz, Patty!"

"Oh hey Kid your back already I thought you weren't suppose to be released until tomorrow..." Liz said nervously.

Kid felt his eyes scanning the wreckage as his ears began to burn.

"We were planning to have this all cleaned up before you came back. Patty and I were having a...girls night..."

"..."

"Kid?"

"..."

Liz sighed "Oh great he's broken again."

"Hey Patty, can you come down here and help me tidy up before Kid busts a vessel?"

"Okie doke!"

So much for looking into things.

*~^~* Class Crescent Moon *~^~*

Soul lounged back in his seat as Professor Stein poked and prodded some pore animal strapped to his examination table, an endangered species no doubt knowing him. God he was bored. He was even tempted to pick a fight with Kid at least if he got his ass kicked he could use that as an excuse to skip classes. Not that he would ever admit out loud that Kid could defeat him.

Scanning a few seats down Soul met eyes with Black Star. He looked just as bored as Soul felt.

...

Slowly Black star and Soul grinned.

"Dumb and dumber have those goofy looks on their faces again." Maka whispered to Tsubaki who laughed nervously.

Soul scrunched up a piece of paper before tossing it to Black Star who caught it with an evil glint in his eyes before pulling out a sling shot from god-knows-where aiming it straight at a certain Reapers head. The paper ball started to glow with Black Stars soul force.

"Are you nuts?" Maka whisper yelled as the glowing projectile flew towards the back of Kids head with a massive amount of force. At that moment Kid ducked down to retrieve a pencil he conveniently dropped at that moment. The ball continued- straight into the back of Steins head.

"As you can see class this rare species of iguana has a soft underbelly." a dark tint took over the professors glasses as something flashed in his hand "making it easier to get a clean cut without DAMAGING the specimen." Stein- not missing a beat in his lecture- tuned back to his 'specimen'.

Soul turned to look at Black Star. A knife had imbedded in the desk, parting Black stars hair. Black Star froze.

"Oh and Black Star, Soul join me after class for a DETAILED lesson on dissection." Stein grinned twisting the screw on the side of his head.

"Soul it was nice knowing you buddy." Black Star winced.

Souls head drooped forward.

"Idiots." Maka sighed.

Lord Death bounced in front of his mirror watching the commotion from the Death Room.

"Never a dull moment with that bunch." Lord Death said in his high pitched voice.

Lucky smiled. They were all so interesting and they looked like a lot of fun.

"Do you watch their classes often?" Lucky asked tilting her head to the side.

"I like to keep up to date with what goes on in my school and my son." He replied as he turned towards the young medic.

'So now he mentions he has a son.' Lucky thought with a mental sigh.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. So you requested some time off hm. Any particular reason?"

"Yes. I was hoping to get a week off to handle a few things back home. Sorry for suddenly springing this on you all of a sudden. Especially with the shortage of staff." Lucky scratched the back of her head wincing.

"Hm I don't see why not and try not to look so nervous, young people shouldn't have frown lines at such a young age. I hope to see you back soon."

"Wait your letting me go?" Lucky grinned brightly.

"I run a school for Weapons and Miesters, not a prison."

"Thank you!" Lucky bowed and quickly exited the Death Room in case he changed his mind.

Lord Death watched as she bound out the doors like she had springs in her sneekers. She was an odd one that girl. Lucky. She had no other name to add to that. Just Lucky. He didn't believe she had a bone in her body and he was usually an excellent judge of character, partucullarly giften in the field of medicine as well. One day she just apeared out of nowhere with hell hot on her heels with nothing but her name and the clothes on her back to offer him. She was keeping secrets, that much was apparent. Though he knew more about her then he was letting on, she didn't need to know that though.

It was only natural that he would do a backround search on all those under his employ and what he found was a doosy. He had chosen to keep an eye on her.

Lucky kept running until she reached her apartment not missing a beat as she packed backpack with a few changes of clothes, a toothbrush and a few other *Ahem* female nesseceties.

She had been trying to work up the nerve to ask Lord Death for this for about a month now, it wasn't that she was too much of a coward or anything or that she was scared of Lord Death, nothing like that. To be hounest the reason was that she was putting it off. She wasn't sure if she was ready to leave the safety of the city. Though she couldn't hide there forever. It was true that she had grown to love Death City even with all the trouble it brought with it. Besides she would be back in a week anyway. What could possibly happen in a week?

Black Star groaned as he cracked his back "I thought I was going to die in there. A big man like me shouldn't be stuck in detention! Hahahaah!"

"I think I was more horrified than that damned lizard." Soul winced.

"Someone please explain to me why the rest of us had to stick around too. It was your detention not ours." Maka glared at the white and blue haired boys.

Liz sighed "No kidding. Why were we kept in anyway, we weren't even sitting near you guys... Hey, where did Kid go?"

"Oh he's gone." Patty pointed out.

"Thank you captain obvious." Soul rolled his eyes.

"Why you worrying about that guy, he'll come back when he's hungry." Black Star shrugged.

"What is he a dog?!"

Death the Kid arrived at the infirmary's information desk to find the elderly woman he knew as Gretta. Kid had known Gretta for a while now, she had been working for his father for many years and had personally attended to many of his injuries.

"Well if it isn't the young Lord himself. What brings you down here? It couldn't be just to see little old me." Gretta smiled kindly.

"I've come to ask you about one of your medics. I believe her name is Lucky."

Gretta scrunched up her face in confusion.

'If that's even her real name.'

"A young woman with blue hair and glasses by any chance?" Gretta raised an eye brow.

Did she have glasses? Must have missed it.

"Yes, that's her."

"Oh why the sudden interest?" Gretta asked with a knowing look.

Wait a minute did he miss something?

"Well I'm sorry young Lord but I can't help you. If you want to know about Lucky you'll just have to ask her yourself. If you intend to court a woman young man I suggest you save those questions for her." Gretta winked.

Wait...

"W-wait! I expressed no such intention, I assure you I am here for an entirely different matter!"

Gretta just laughed.

"My apologies. Well I'm afraid I really don't know much about her apart from the fact she has a weird obsession with wearing odd brightly colored socks and listening to music turned up so loud an old bat like me can hear it from those tiny little things she plugs in here ears. Though she's a wonderful dancer, though why she does it with a broom never fails to allude me..." Gretta looked lost in thought for a moment as if searching her memory.

This was getting him nowhere.

"Would you happen to know where she is?" Kid asked.

"I'm afraid she won't be in for a little while. She left this afternoon on break, she wont be back for a week. I would tell you where but I'm afraid I don't know that either."

Kid frowned nodding to Gretta as he made for the exit.

"She's not in any trouble is she?" Gretta called after him.

Kid thought for a moment "No. Not yet anyways." Kid said the last part under his breath.
