He paused. He looked at her. A slobbery lick that covered her face. "Yum! Your soul looks delicious…I can't wait to eat it, human." Keira looked at him in horror. She turned her vision to Dr. Stein. Dr. Stein placed a finger over his mouth. The boy had not realized Stein was there. This was their chance. Keira looked back. "Umm…" she had to think of something to distract him from Dr. Stein. "But I don't want to be die." She said.
" I don't care about your opinion." He lifted a hand.
"But…but I mean I can give you anything."
"What?" He put his hand back down.
"Ummm…"
"So you don't have anything." His right hand changed to a thin sharp black blade that looked as if it was made of deep blue oil.
"No, it's just…" Dr. Stein was about to grab the case when he stepped and those damn planks screeched in the small brick hut. The boy was about to turn his head and catch Dr. Stein. Keira could not have that happen. She screamed as loud as she could.
The boy put his hands over his ears as her scream cut through his head echoing. "Bitch… that was really loud." He looked at her in the eyes. "You are really getting on my nerves now."
Dr. Stein came running at him from the back with case in his hands. He broke it open and put it over the boy's head. He slammed the sides together and pushed the ends into his neck. It pierced through with a click. The case closed and as so the boy disappeared back into it.
Keira was standing, frozen in fear. "What the fuck… who?" she asked.
"No wonder no one was guarding the case." Stein said aloud, ignoring Keira.
"What? Who was that?" She asked.
"Oh… that was the demon sword, Oblivion's Corvus. It was wielded by a kishin in the early 18th century. After the kishin disappeared, the sword went with it. It's very powerful, not to be messed with especially by a 16-year-old girl without a weapon. So be careful where you put your elbow…" Keira bit her lip. "I think we should take it back to Lord Death immediately." Stein ended. As they walked back he whispered to himself, "It's weird how he didn't notice me. Its like he wanted to be caught."
Keira sat in her classroom she walked out on yesterday. Whispers surfaced around the room. Keira looked around to see everyone staring at her. The door opened and in walked Maka and Soul, heads down, thinking people would comment on them and their failure, losing all their kishin souls. But not even one person even turned a head.
One of her classmates walked up to Keira, looking at the floor. She couldn't grasp his name. "Is it true they found a demon sword?" He asked. She brushed off his question in fear of remembering those blood lusting eyes.
She sighed as she walked to the Death room after being summoned again.
Lord Death stared at his mirror. "You called me here?" Keira asked in a serious moan. Lord Death stood there for a second before turning around in a jolt.
"As you know…" He said, "We found a demon sword, yesterday," he broke his path of speech with a sigh. "We can't have students finding out, it will cause a panic." For some reason, unlike he always was, he was completely serious. "We will be transporting him to a confined building, where we can keep him under surveillance."
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Well, I have decided to keep this under wraps and not tell anyone, just you and Stein."
"So, what do I have do I have to do with this?"
"Well, I would like if you accompany Stein and escort the demon sword. What do you say?"
'How did I get into this?' she questioned as she trotted off, back to class. 'I should have known it was a rhetorical question!'
A day or two passed, as she was anxious for the day of her next encounter with the devil. Soon she would have to follow Dr. Stein to a building far, FAR, away. As she walked passed a clobber of people, whispers of gossip slid past her ear. "Wow, Lord Death's son is amazing." This peeked her interest but she was to busy worried about tomorrow. The day she would have to look into those eyes. Again.
~Note: This story happens as the show/manga starts. (Btw) I forgot to add that last chapter.
