We have made you wait for too long, but we finally have the thing you have been waiting for since March. This is the first chapter of The Incursion of the Rose Edge. Instead of what Tv Tokyo and Studio Bones did, we are using the prologue chapters as the origin stories of the OCs. So there is five prologue chapters, and they are all set about a month before the fic's Chapter 7 and forward. Every prologue has the people from the previous prologue chapters, so Shikudo will be in PROLOGUE 02: ROSEPHINE MIST. Okay, enough explaining: I have got to write the origin story for my OC: Shikudo Pincer, the main character in this fic.

PROLOGUE 01 : SHIKUDO PINCER

MAKA'S POV

"Damn him," I said to no one but the breeze as I walked through the forest. " Sometimes I wonder how our souls even resonate anymore." Me and Soul had another huge argument, and instead of letting it go where it went last time, I just walked out. Now, I was walking alone in the forest. With no weapon. I did not think this one through. I turned around to start heading back to the academy, and out of my peripheral I saw the one thing I did not want to see.

A kishin. The one time I don't have my weapon with me in the forest, a kishin has to pop up.

"Dammit." was all i could say before I was knocked down. I finally got a look at the beast: it was a tall, slender being with three tendrils coming out of the back of it's head. (I know it may seem like but this does not turn into tentacle rape, sorry.) The tendrils had points on them with dried blood on them. It began to move over to where I had fallen.

"Stay away from the lady!" A voice came out of nowhere. Then the figure who matched the voice jumped in front of the creature. "Stop!" he said. The beast showed no mercy: it took two of its three tendrils and stabbed them into the person's shoulders, lifted him up, and then the third into his chest right above where his right lung would be. The beast dropped him right there, it then continued to walk over to me until the person who just got impaled grabbed its ankle.

"Don't get yourself killed, just run away!" I yelled at him. He then looked up, and I saw red crosses in his pupils.

"Strappare la pelle dalla carne e la carne dalle ossa." he said to the beast. Is that . . . Italian? He then stood up and made blood come from his wound come out as blades and he cut the beast in half, and then the beast exploded in a bloody fashion. It was different than the black blood Crona had, he looked weak after he did this because the blood fell to the ground afterwards, and, you know, his blood was still red.

He walked over to me. "Stai bene?" he said.

"What?" I asked him.

The crosses faded from his eyes and he began shaking. I stood up to help him, and he fell backwards, unconcious. I caught him; he was tall, but really under weight. I'm not the strongest girl, but I could carry this guy on my shoulder.

I carried him back to the academy. Professor Stein took to the hospital area, carrying him under his arm. I had to change my clothes becuase my jacket and shirt were covered in his blood and the beast's blood that got on him. After I changed I went to go see the person that saved my life. I walked down to where Stein took him.

"Is he going to be okay, professor?"

"For the amount of blood loss he sustained, he should be dead, but he is alive and recovering rather quickly." he said.

"Is it okay if I go in there to talk to him?"

"I don't see why not, although, i'm not sure he'll be able to hear you, he is unconcious." he said, giving me a weird look. I walked in the room. He was lying there, wounds covered in blood soaked bandages. He also had his eyes covered, so he couldn't see.

"How's there" he groaned out.

"It's me" I said

"Well, hello, 'me', is that your real name or are you messing with me?" He said with pain and disgust.

"Oh, sorry, you can't see me. I'm the girl you saved." I said.

"Oh, hi. Sorry for freaking you out." well, he's polite. Unlike Soul.

"It's okay. What did you do back there?" I wanted to know.

"Well, whenever I get injured badly, my body seems to have a different form of me that comes out." A dark side?

"Why did you speak Italian?' This had become an interview.

"It's part of it. Truth be told, I don't know a lick of Italian." Honest and a sense of humor?

"I have to ask, why are your eyes covered?" I asked.

"I don't know." He sat up and took off his eye cover. His eyes looked nice when they aren't threatening to kill something. WHAT? He looked at me and smiled."It looks like my efforts were worth it./cough/ /cough/" I blushed at this comment. Did he just say I was pretty?

"Well, uh, um, another question, why are you so under weight? Do your parents take care of you?" I dodged the comment.

"Well, my father tries to take care of me, but it's really hard to stay well nourished when your only form of defense is your own blood. And before you ask, my mom is not part of our household." He said as his smile faded.

"I'm sorry." I did not mean to upset him.

"No, it's fine." Forgiving? "I mean, you seem to be trustworthy," my blush had returned. "What's the matter?" He said. He even has that touch of cute idiot.

I grabbed his hand, which shocked him, and I could see a tint of pink in his face. "Oh I was just gonna say 'Please get better'."

I stood up. He said to me: " I didn't get your name. I want to be able to match your cute face to a name." i blushed even darker.

"I didn't get yours either."

"My name's Shikudo Pincer. And yours?"

"Maka Albarn."

"Your name is just as cute." He really knows how to make a girl blush.

I hadn't let go of his hand this entire time, and I think he took advantage of that: He pulled me down by my hand to where we were face to face. My face was a crimson red, but he wasn't exactly Crayola white himself, he had a good amount of blush himself.

"Uh, um, hm, uh" Before i could say anything, Shikudo leaned forward and kissed me. My eyes went wide.

"I'd hate to interupt you two's moment, but I need to run some more tests." Stein walked on it.

I did what I could've done at any time, and leaned back. "Thank you for saving me."

"You're welcome." Shikudo said with a smile.

Shikudo's POV

I watched her walk out.

"One hell of a thank you." Stein said to me. I turned red.

And that's how she met me.
