Chapter 2: The Accident

Sierra's Point Of View

"Um, Sierra?" Nova asked as we walked down the same hall for the third time.

"Yes Nova?" I responded as I stopped walking.

"We're lost."

"Yes, yes we are." I sighed. When Nova and I walked into the school, neither of us paid attention to where we were going. We had absolutely no clue where we were.

"Do you two need help?" Nova and I turned to see Kid, Liz and Patty. Kid was the one who spoke.

"We have gotten lost trying to find the Death Room." Nova stated simply.

"Liz, Patty, both of you get to class. I'll take them to my father." Kid told his weapons. They both nodded and walked off.

"Thank you." Nova and I said in unison. We both smiled at the boy. He smiled back and motioned for us to follow him.

"So what brings you to this school?" Kid questioned me as we walked.

"Well Serena wants to learn to be a better meister, Nova is just following Serena and I. My reasons however, are a secret." I told Kid as we walked around a corner. He looked at me question, but I just smiled at him. Nova giggled at my side, clearly finding this conversation funny.

"So, your twin is a weapon, does that mean you are too?"

"Yes, I am a weapon. I am a blue bladed scythe with a black handle." I said with a smile on my face.

"Woah, you actually admitted it?" Nova gasped. I sighed out loud. I was annoyed now.

"Just because in the past I was secretive about my weapon form does not mean that is how I will be now." I explained sounding slightly annoyed with how Nova was acting.

"Then transform." Nova stated as if challenging me.

"Yeah, I'd love to see how you look in weapon form." Kid chimed in. by now we had stopped walking and they were both looking at me as if they were waiting for me to change.

"Fine." I mumbled. I closed my eyes and focused on my weapon form. I don't normally go into that form, so it was a little difficult to actually do it. I took a deep breath and suddenly my body was engulfed in a blue light. The blue light/my body circled around Nova before becoming a blue bladed, black handled scythe in her open hand.

"Wow, never thought I'd see the day you'd transform in front of someone outside the group." Kid and Nova looked to Serena who was standing a few feet away.

"Well, I couldn't resist their adorable faces." I joked as I went back to my human form.

"You are a beautiful weapon Sierra." Kid told me, making me blush and mumble a thank you.

"So are you guys headed to the Death Room?" Serena asked my and best friend.

"Yes, Kid is showing us the way." Nova told Serena, slightly uneasy with being around her.

"Can I follow? I have no idea where I'm going."

"Sure." Nova and I said in unison. Kid nodded his head and began walking again. We walked in silence until Serena decided to speak again.

"So…Nova, I'm really sorry about what I said. I didn't mean to say it like I did."

"No, I think you made your point perfectly." Nova said with slight bitterness in her voice. I sighed and walked faster to walk next to Kid.

"So, you really are Lord Death's kid?" I asked once I was at Kid's side. He nodded his head. "How the hell does that even work? I mean he looks like a giant piece of cloth, no body at all."

"I doubt you really want me to go into detail, correct?" Kid asked chuckling. I smiled at him he was right, I honestly did not want to know.

The rest of the way was in silence, but not awkward silence. We finally reached the door and Kid knocked. When he got a response, he opened the door. He walked through it with us three girls following behind. We walked down a walkway with guillotine looking things above our heads. I could tell that Nova was unsettled by them; she tends to be a scaredy cat over simple things.

"Ah, Kid, who are your friends?" The giant piece of cloth, I mean, Lord Death said when we reached the end of the path.

"The new students, father." Kid responded as he walked up the stairs to stand in front of his dad.

"Oh, I see. Sierra and Serena Rae and Nova, it's good to finally meet you three." Lord Death exclaimed.

"It's nice to meet you as well sir." Serena said happily. 'Suck up' I thought to myself and from the look on Nova's face, she was thinking the same thing.

"You girls will be in the same class as Kid; Class Crescent Moon. So go on now, you four are already late for class." Lord Death waved us out of the room.

"Thank you sir," Serena said with a smile. The four of us walked out of the room in silence, and walked through the halls in silence.

"So, who is our teacher?" Nova asked as we reached the classroom's door.

"Professor Stein." Kid responded as he opened the door. The class was full of people, including the group of people we had met this morning.

"Kid, you are late." Professor Stein said looking over at us from the animal he was about to cut open.

"I had to take the new students to my father and then get them here."

"Ah, well alright then, new students introduce yourselves."

"I'm Serena. My twin is Sierra and the blonde is Nova. Nova and I are Sierra's weapons." Serena told the professor.

"You! We never got to finish our fight!" Black Star yelled from where he was sitting.

"You three sit with Kid." Professor Stein told us, ignoring the yelling blue haired idiot. We nodded our heads and followed Kid up to where he sat. I sat right next to him, then it was Serena and then finally Nova was on the other side of Serena. Professor Stein went back to dissecting the animal, so Nova was looking down, hiding her face. Serena and I were looking anywhere but the front of the classroom; it was clear that the three of us did not what to see what was going on.

"Psst," Serena whispered as she slid a folded piece of paper over to me. I opened it and read it.

It said:

'Kid is pretty cute isn't he? He seems so proper and so gentleman like. I can't help but wonder what he would be like in bed.'

I stared wide eyed at the note, half surprised at her words. I sighed and wrote back.

I wrote:

'Yes, he is very attractive, but please, stop thinking like a tramp.'

She responded:

'I can't help it. He's just so damn hot.'

I sighed and rolled my eyes. My sister always has had a one track mind when it came to boys.

I replied:

'Stop that! I can see what you are thinking in that mind of yours. I don't need that gross stuff in my mind.'

With that, my argument with my sister began. It lasted all through class. The whole time, I had a feeling that Kid was reading our note whenever it was in front of me. It didn't bother me much, it was about him after all, it was pertaining to him in an inappropriate way.

Once the bell rang, a lot of people rushed out the door. I assumed they were freaked out over the whole cutting an animal open thing, or maybe they were just afraid of our professor. Either way, I don't see why people are afraid of him. I find him to be interesting, not creepy, though I could do without the dissection.

"Hey," Maka said to me and my two idiots once we got up to leave the room.

"What's up?" My twin and I said together.

"We were going to play basketball, and we were wondering if you three would like to join us."

"Yes!" Serena said happily.

"No." I said totally uninterested.

"Sure." Nova said nervously. Nova and Serena both looked at me, wanting me to change my answer.

"Fine." I sighed looking away from their eyes. The two cheered happily as I just shook my head in disbelief. I wasn't sure why they wanted to play a stupid game, but I guess as long as they are happy then I shouldn't complain. We followed the other group as they led us to the basketball court. When we got there, I choose to sit on a bench, instead of playing the game. I never have been the type to play games. I was the grown up of my little group. To ensure those two could live a normal life and have the chance to act like kids, I would always be the one to act like a grown up.

"Hey." I looked up to see Kid sitting down next to me.

"Oh, hi Kid." I said with a smile.

"You don't want to play?"

"No. I mean no offense but I haven't nor do I have any interest in playing childish games." I looked down after I said that, it sounded much harsher than I meant it to sound.

"You sound like you never had the opportunity to be a kid." I looked at him, surprised.

"How did you know that?" I questioned him. He smiled sympathetically.

"My father told me about you three. I had begged him to let me know about the new students."

"Oh, ok." I looked at him. "Hey Kid, why do you have three stripes on one side but not the other?" I had been curious since I met him but never got around to asking him about it, though now I'm not sure I should have asked now. As soon as I said it, Kid fell to the ground mumbling something about being asymmetrical garbage.

"Kid?" I asked as I kneeled down next to him. The others were not even paying attention to Kid and me, so I had to handle this alone. "Kid, you are not asymmetrical garbage. Those stripes are cute. They make you look great. Besides you are a grim reaper, no one cares about those stripes. And just so you know, personally I like your stripes."

"You really think that?" Kid asked as he looked up at me. Tears were streaming down his face and he was sniffling but even like this, he was cute.

"Yes Kid, now stop crying." I smiled at him and wiped his tears. He sat up and smiled at me. The smile on his face made my heart beat faster. It surprised me because that was a new feeling. I had never felt that before. I was about to get up when someone from behind me pushed me into Kid. His and my lips met in a kiss. Out of shock, we froze causing the kiss to last quite a few seconds. We parted and stared at each other blushing. Before anyone could say anything, I stood up and took off running out of the basketball court. I couldn't handle it. I was so freaked out about kissing Kid because that was my first kiss.

"I'm locking myself in my room now," I told myself as I ran home.
