Aiwa: Heya! Because it's Winter Break, I'll be able to post. A LOT.
Mandorin: R-really...?
Aiwa: Yep! And, I was FINALLY able to post a picture of you!
Mandorin: ...M-me?!
Aiwa: Well, at least I think so. If you STILL don't see it, please follow me on Gmail or YouTube. You will see me as Kennedy Manuel.
Mandorin: ...Is that your real name?
Aiwa: Uh...No...How about you just have an orange for now? *Nervous Sweatdrop*
Mandorin: Oh...okay *Very Confused But Happily Takes The Orange*
KID POV:
didn't tell me, but I could sense it was her. Those crystalline blue eyes. Her hair was so blond and glossy, that I could see its luminous shine form all the way over here, which was 20 feet away from her. Also, It was obvious it was her because she had a small, but noticeable, halo bobbing up and down, inches above the golden hairs on the top of her head. She wore a white dress with pink ribbons, similar to a wedding dress, however, it seemed like something angels would wear: above the knee, long-sleeved, and laced at the hems. on her feet were white lolita boots with white shoe laces. For an angel, she was definitely up-to-date with the latest styles.. Also, her blonde hair was short, not too short, though. The ends peeped out and sort of...for a lack of words...curved a little bit outward. On each side of head was a lock of hair, each tied by a small pink ribbon. In short, she was 100% symmetrical.
"There she is." finally acknowledged her as Mandorin Heiro. At the same time, my father and a man with blonde hair and blue eyes, whom I assumed was the girl's father, approached us.
"Hey there, Kiddo-kun!" My dad rested a big hand on my head and tousled my hair.
"S-stop!"
Just then, the girl came running towards us.
"Father..." She barely spoke as she ran directly into the blonde man's chest. In response, he ran his fingers through her hair as he spoke.
"I am sorry for wandering off, Rin. But, what good timing you have. Lord Death would like to introduce someone."
MANDORIN POV:
"Lord Death..?" I looked up towards Lord Death.
"Yes," He placed a giant white hand on the young boy in front of him. "This is my son, Death the Kid."
"Death the...Kid..." I repeated the name. The boy held out his hand.
"That's my name. But, just call me Kid. And this is Liz and Patti" He said, pointing to the two girls at each of his sides. I grabbed his hand.
"Nice to meet you, Kid, Liz, Patti. I'm Mandorin...you can just say Rin, though...well, at least that's what Father calls me..." I then look up to my father, asking if it was okay for someone other than him to call me that.
"Yes, that's perfectly fine." Father nodded.
"I hope you two become best friends, because you will be living together." At Lord Death's unexpected words, Kid and I turn our heads.
"Father! Why didn't you tell me this vital piece of information?!" Kid stammered.
"Hey, hey. Calm down. And you know very well that I never tell you anything! Anyway, yes, you two will live in Kid's house. Also, Kid, to make your job easier, I will bestow the Gift of Sin to Little Rinny here."
"The Gift of Sin...?" I asked.
"Do you remember the story of Adam and Eve?" My father asked, bending down to my level and placing his hands on my shoulders.
"Yes, sir. Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil."
"Good memory. What Lord Death is about to do to you will be just like that."
"So...I have to eat from the tree, too?"
"Kind of. Well, all you have to do is let him put his hand on your head, and it will all be over."
With a funny feeling in my tummy, I stepped up to Lord Death.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes, sir." I answered Lord Death immediately. I closed my eyes as he timidly put his hand on my head.
Everything stopped...And a new world instantly began.
I snapped my eyes back open. Suddenly, billions of thoughts ran through my mind. Why do I feel like this? Did Black Star really say he was going to rise above God?! How dare he! Why is this boy in front of me named Kid? And why does he have three white stripes on his head and yellow eyes? That's strange. And, most importantly, how can Lord Death have a child?! And with who?! However, I kept this in my head. I blinked a few times to make sure that I was okay.
"How do you feel, Rin?" My fathered asked.
"I feel...strange...like, I know about all the sins of the world..." I put deep thought into my answer.
"Good. You will live here for one year. After that, when I return, I will bestow upon you the Gift of Perfection." Despite my current state, I knew what he was talking about-
"W-wait! One year?!" Fear, an emotion I never knew existed, welled up inside of me.
"Yes, everything will be okay. I know that you will be just fine. Besides, this is only for study." My father reassured me.
"Y-yes...just for studies" I told myself.
"Now now! Please continue on with the party" Lord Death politely shooed us away, and we all fell into the life of the party.
KID POV:
Later, Liz, Patti, and I met up with Maka and the gang.
"So? Did you meet her?" Maka inquired. I simply nodded my head.
"If you ask me, she was pretty dull." Soul commented, only to receive a Maka Chop. Really, where does Maka find books to hit him with? Does she always carry a book around? I wondered.
"As long as she doesn't steal my glory, then we'll be okay!" Black Star said in a booming voice, winding his left arm.
"I honestly think she was a sweet girl, it's just that she's probably nervous." Tsubaki quietly voiced her opinion.
"Wait, shouldn't you be keeping an eye on her?" Liz leaned in towards me.
"Yeah, Kid!" Patti piped in.
"Oh crap!" I came to my sense. Father would probably give me a Reaper Chop if I wasn't carrying out my role properly. I left everyone else to hunt the girl down. When I finally spotted the blondie, I could tell she was looking around as if she was lost. I ran up to her and grabbed her wrist. She turned around and her face grew red. I ignored it, thinking that it was probably an effect of that Gift of Sin thing.
"I was told by my father to keep a close eye on you. Please stay in my sight." I told her firmly. From that moment, she never left my side. Although she was by my side, she sometimes did reckless things. For example, she confused soda with carbonated wine and almost drank it, until I had to come to her aid. Also, when I had to go(well...you know where) I told her to stay put. But, when I cam back, she had been whisked away by some random playboy against her own will. You can already consider who had to rescue her. I might consider changing my name to Captain Kid, the saver of all reckless, blonde angels. Besides that, the party went successfully.
MANDORIN POV:
After the party, everyone who attended gave me a gift. And a lot of people came, so I was buried in a pile of presents. Kid pulled me from underneath. I was beginning to rely on Kid a lot. All that was left in the ballroom were Maka, Soul, Tsubaki, Black Star, Liz, Patti, Kid, Lord Death, my father, and I.
"Mandorin," My father spoke. I could tell he was serious, because he almost never said my full name.
"I will have to leave soon,"
"I know," I said, facing the truth.
"Before I leave, I must give you this." My father pulled out a headband with a giant bow on it. Each half of the bow was a wing-a chibi wing to be exact. He pulled the pink ribbons that held my two pony tails and pushed the headband on my head.
"What's this for?" I said, fingering one of the wings of the bow.
"Their you weapons. Come out, L, R"
The wings came of with a pop and began to glimmer. Suddenly, two tiny figures appeared, appearing to be twins. They had on the same clothes as me. However, their hair was tied up in one side-ponytail. Each ponytail had a wing.
"Hello! My name is L!" said the one on the left, whose ponytail was on the left side of her head.
"Hi, Rin! I'm R!" said the one on the right, whose ponytail was on the right side of her head.
"L and R can turn into thin discs that look like halos" My father spoke as they immediately transformed into matching halos, as sharp as blades. "They will do most of the work. For example, if you throw them in the wrong direction, they will go in the right direction by themselves. My father grabbed L (or R, I don't know) in her disc form.
"Lord Death, please catch it." My father said as he turned towards Soul.
"W-why do you have to aim it at me?!" Soul started to panic.
"Relax, it's just an example." He swung the golden disc towards Soul. Soul screamed like a banshee. However, the disk completely missed him, did a U-turn, and flew towards Lord Death, who caught it just in time. He then released it, and the disc turned back into one of the little fairies. Everyone began to laugh at how Soul screamed.
"I-I was so cool when I screamed..." Soul puffed, blushing. That only made everyone laugh harder. I, at last, found the scenario quite funny, and began to giggle a little. Everyone suddenly became quiet, and I was the only one laughing.
"S-so cute!" Maka and Tsubaki cooed in unison. I began to blush at the comment.
"That's a pretty cool laugh." Soul gave me a thumbs up.
"I could just put you in my purse and take you home!" Liz proclaimed.
"We are taking her home," Kid stated. Patti just decided to poke my cheek and giggle. I decided to laugh again.
"That's better," my father sighed. " You seemed a bit down when we got here, but things seem to be okay." My father jutted out his hand and opened a portal that lead to heaven. My father pulled back the hair that covered my forehead and kissed me.
"I'll be back soon,Mandorin." Then he was gone. There was a moment of silence before Black Star shouted, "Okay, present time!"
"Open mine first!" Maka handed me a box, it was quite heavy. When I opened it...a book.
"Thank you." I told her, as Tsubaki handed me her present.
" I didn't know what to get, so I dried some tsubaki flowers and made a garland." She said as she placed it around my neck.
"Thank you. They're very pretty." I said, rubbing the flowers.
"My turn!" Black Star shouted. "Mine is very special, and will surely top everyone else!" He pulled out a black marker (I think it was a Sharpie...God, I hope not) and wrote on my forehead.
"Behold! For you have received my holy signature! Be grateful!" I wasn't, but I instead replied, "I am. Thank you."
Next, Soul gave me a pair of headphones with a wing on each earmuff. "I thought they were pretty cool." Soul explained.
"Thanks. They are very cool."
Kid walked up and opened up his fist to reveal a tiny skull.
"A pin?" I said, realizing what it was.
"Yeah...I think it would go best on your bow."
"O-oh" I took it and attempted to fasten it onto my bow, but I failed. Kid took it out of my hands and placed it on the little knot between the two wings of my bow.
"There. Symmetrical." Kid put a hand on his chin and smirked.
"T-thank you..." I looked down so he wouldn't see my blushing face.
Lastly, Liz gave me a set of nail polish, and Patti gave me a box of crayons. I opened the boxed. The crayons had already been used.
"Well, you kids should be getting home. It is very late." Lord Death stated and everyone said their goodbyes and parted ways. I, on the other hand, walked home with Liz, Kid, Patti, and my two new weapons, dragging a wagon full of gifts behind me.
