How many of you hate me for this chapter XD?


The bell for the end of first period rang the next day and woke Soul from his Kiddo kun filled dreams. Stein looked at him reproachfully but Soul simply walked to second period with his friends.

P.E was their next class and as the group walked to the locker rooms Soul subtly nudged Maka to say her line.

"So Kid! Since your party is so short maybe all of us could do something together over the weekend!" Her voice was just a little too forceful, and her smile a little too wide.

"Actually I was telling Soul yesterday that Patty wants to have a weekend long sleep over at my house. Didn't he tell you?"

"Oh no, he must have forgotten, silly Soul." She punched Soul's arm, a little too hard, and giggled, a little insanely. Soul had asked her to do this though, because so far the only person other than Patty and Liz who officially knew about the sleep over had been Soul, and now Maka. Kid hadn't invited the rest of their group and it was his birthday so he had to do it.

"Yeah, silly me." He said, rubbing the now throbbing limb, certain there was going to be a bruise on it tomorrow.

"Well, my fault anyway. I should have told you guys instead of waiting to be asked. I'll invite Blackstar and Tsubaki right now," They were in the same gym class, "And I'll invite Crona during 5th period war history."

"Sounds great! Well here's the locker rooms gotta go bye!" She rushed into the locker room and Soul simply stared after the terrible actress that was his meister and friend.

Kid looked over at Soul and noticed him staring at the door where Maka had just gone through, he was going to ask Soul if maybe Maka was feeling ill or something. 'Well clearly he's too busy day dreaming about her to pay attention.' He was surprised at the slight jealousy. 'Come on you idiot, you already knew they were probably dating anyway.' He sighed and walked into the locker rooms with Soul who had finally shaken his head and given up trying to figure out if Maka was really that terrible or just trying to ruin his life.

During P.E Mila Naigus, Sid's weapon partner and the P.E teacher, stood in front of the class with a whistle and a clipboard.

"Alright, we're doing partner swap today," A collective groan of annoyance was heard. Every time they did partner swap someone got hurt, or people got into arguments, most of the time Blackstar would knock out his weapon partner by smashing his soul wavelength into them. It was quite the fiasco. "Now quit your complaining, it's not that bad. I could make you run the obstacle course instead if you really dislike partner swap so much." The class instantly settled down. Nobody wanted to do that.

"OK then, as usual I will call out partners and you will stand next to your assigned partner. However, Lord Death will be watching us today so do your best and NO HORSING AROUND!

Alright then, the groups are as follows:

Maka Albarn and Tsubaki Nakatsukasa

Blackstar and Liz and Patty Thompson

Ox Ford and Jacqueline O'Lantern Dupré

Kilik Rung and Harvar D. Éclair

Kim Diehl and Fire and Thunder

and finally

Death the Kid and Soul Eater Evans." She had the students get into their groups before matching up sparring sessions. When she wasn't looking Blackstar and Maka switched weapons, after Blackstar had reminded Maka that he might accidently hurt Liz and Patty.

As Naigus worked on her clipboard, Soul looked over at the young Shinigami beside him, glad that Kid had matured enough to not let symmetry distract him in battle (minor stuff at least, he still freaked when it came to stuff like architecture). Not that Soul was complaining, he still had adorable fits outside of a fight.

"Ok," Naigus walked to the center of the field, "Death the Kid versus Mak Albarn. Begin!"

"Ready Soul?" The death god had a serious look on his face, he pushed down his jealousy and let his mind focus on the battle. He let his emotions settle before extending his hand to the scythe.

"Ready." Soul grabbed Kid's hand, lingering a moment longer than necessary before transforming into his weapon form. He worried that Kid wouldn't be able to lift him, his soul had always been picky and even Maka broke a sweat picking him up the first time around. Kid lifted him with a single hand and twirled him around as though he weighed less than a feather.

'He is a death god, so I guess it makes sense that he'd be able to handle me easily.'

Maka grabbed Liz and Patty and stood eight feet away from Kid and Soul. Kid twirled Soul once more, testing the weight and adjusting his grip. Maka was a little jealous that Kid had been able to handle Soul so easily, even if she knew logically he was stronger than her by birth, it still peeved her that she had worked so hard and still couldn't match him. She tried to hold Liz and Patty the way Kid normally would, but her pinkies were too short so she simply held them normally. She flinched a little at the soul wavelengths merging, but it wasn't too painful which was a good sign.

Soul waited for the pain of a new soul wavelength trying to merge with his but it never came. Instead he felt his soul becoming more powerful, insanely powerful. Kid's soul wasn't just merging with his, it became a fountain of strength.

"SOUL RESONANCE!" The two meisters called out.

Naigus watched curiously, it would be the first time Kid picked up and actual Scythe weapon, scythes were said to be the most powerful weapons in a Shinigami's hands. Also, the two meisters would create two new Soul Resonance attacks.

Kid's shoulders grew spikes and black stripes painted themselves running down his cheeks, two on each side. The blade of the scythe elongated to almost twice it's original size, opposite the blade two curving points protruded from the shaft, soul wavelength arcing like electricity between the points.

"Demon Slayer!" Kid's voice rang through the air as he swung the scythe down in an arc.

Maka dropped to her knees, arms extended before her. The twin pistols wrapped ribbons of soul around her arms, the two pistols merging into a hand held rail gun.

"Soul Breaker!"

The scythe completed the arc downwards, a compressed soul wavelength launching forward, the two spikes sending a bolt of lightning made of Kid's soul wavelength.

Maka shot the rail gun, her soul wavelength smashed into Kid's. As expected, Kid won, but it was a good fight. Maka and Kid both realized at the same time that this was an unexpected result. Their attacks had been stronger than anticipated, in fact they were quite possibly stronger than their usual partners.

Suddenly cheering erupted around them, it had been one hell of a show.
