"Just to make sure I didn't land in the wrong yard, your name is Kid… correct?" Maka asked as she examined herself for any damage. With a sigh of relief, she only saw cuts and bruises, nothing major.
"How do you know that?" Kid asked leaning forward in his couch to look her in the eyes.
She smirked. "Is that a yes?"
"It's a maybe. How do you know about me, no one knows about me, and I mean no one. My father is too ashamed of my mental disabilities… so he locked me up in here and made sure that no one could recognize me… hence the three asymmetrical stripes on my head and the golden eyes." Kid grumbled, his anger rising at the thought of his father.
Maka frowned. "I don't know everything… just that your name is Kid." She mumbled.
He looked at her. "What kind of guardian angel are you?" Kid grumbled, trying to distract himself from the thought of his father.
"Let me introduce myself properly. Hi! My name's Maka, I was the first angels out there. I used to be human, but I have no memory of it… all I know is that I had found my soul mate." She muttered looking down. "Ahem, anyways, I am a level ten angel for I have taken on a whole bunch of special missions and always have succeeded… and I am now your guardian angel. That means you're stuck with me whether you want me or not." Maka said setting a serious tone.
Kid sighed and looked down at the ground. "I guess I could use company around here." He mumbled as he looked at her uneven ponytails and winced.
Standing up he went to sit next to her and grabbed her hair, starting to fix it.
"What are you doing?" She asked him.
"Your pony tails were un-even, making you look asymmetrical." Kid grumbled tugging and pulling on her hair.
Maka smiled. "Is that your mental disability?" she asked.
"Yeah, everything has to be perfectly symmetrical." He mumbled.
She smiled at him warmly when he let his hands drop, shaking her head. "Go ahead, ask your questions and I'll do my best to give you that answer you want." She told him.
"How long are you going to be here?" he asked her.
"Until you no longer need me." Maka responded.
"But I don't need you." Kid said.
Maka looked up at him and let out a small chuckle. "If you don't need me then why was I assigned to you?" she asked.
"Uh… a glitch in the system? Look I don't need you Maka." Kid said when there was a knock on the door.
Kid was about to get up to answer it, a confused look in his eye, but Maka's hand shot up to pull him back down.
Maka had a gut feeling that this was not a good thing. "I'll answer the door." She said getting up and dusting her robe off, yanking off her floating halo and handing it to him. "Hold this." She mumbled as there was another knock on the door.
"Coming!" she called out as walked to the door and yanked it open a fluttering sensation spreading in her stomach.
She looked up to see what seemed like a human, but there was something off about him.
He had a cigar in his mouth, his hands in his leather jacket pockets. His jeans had holes in them.
His white hair covered his face as he looked down at the ground.
"Can I help you?" Maka asked, there was something about him that seemed familiar.
He looked up and they both froze when they looked into each other's eyes.
Maka looked into the deep red eyes… those were the eyes that haunted her nightmares… those were they eyes that made her want to remember her human life…
Soul looked into Maka's green eyes, his jaw slacking, the cigarette falling to the ground. It can't be... no… no, he had killed her, she was his first victim… he had seen the way those eyes had begged him to stop… these were the only eyes that had haunted him.
Wait a minute… that robe… she's an angel… Soul let out a small breath of relief and then chuckled. It's not every day that you get the chance to kill someone for the second time.
Maka was the first to react. "Can I help you?" She asked, louder this time.
"Yeah, you can." Soul said coolly as he stepped on his cigarette. "I need to talk to the man of the house." He said.
Maka glared at him there was something off about this guy… she just couldn't put her finger on it.
"Maka! What's going on?" she heard Kid question and she mentally slapped her forehead.
Soul peered in and smirked at her pushing her out of the way as he stepped inside. "The name is Soul." He said as he sat down next to Kid.
"Okay…" Kid trailed off, he had never met this guy before.
Closing the door, Maka followed his every move with a glare in her eyes. This guy was bad news, she could feel it.
"What can I help you with?" Kid asked him.
Soul chuckled and shook his head, his tongue running along the back of his teeth. "I'm your guardian angel." Soul said coolly.
"What?" Maka exclaimed. There was no way Kid could be assigned two angels! That has never happened to anyone! "I haven't seen you around! What is the meaning of this?" she growled.
Soul looked up at her and smirked. "You must be my tutor then." Soul said smirking. "Stein sent me here, I'm kinda new at this, so he said that you were the best option and sent me here to observe and examine." Soul said smirking.
Maka blinked and sighed. That did sound like Stein, but she should keep an eye out for this guy. Great… just… great, now she had to take care of two guys.
"Just so you know Soul… you really need to work on your gentleman skills, you seem to be lacking on that." Maka growled, a glare settling between them.
