Akami strolled along the corridors behind Liz and Patty, trailing behind her was Kidd and Aito. Aito with a hand on the other boy's collar begging him to stop before his sister hits him again. Kidd however seemed determined to ignore him. The entire walk he stayed only a pace or two behind, simply begging her to let him fix her hair. She continued walking forward pointedly, ignoring him with the same determination that he bestowed her brother.
"Pleeease… You look much better when you're perfectly symmetrical. Please Akira. Pleease." If he didn't know they would leave him behind, he probably would have dropped to his knees begging.
The group stopped, and before them stood a long hall of doors… Or rather… Door frames. They were spaced roughly a few feet apart, and continued the entire way in a creepy mirror-like fashion. Kidd didn't seem to notice.
"Akira ple-" Her fist hit him square in the jaw again.
"SHUT UP ALREADY!"
Aito dropped his head into his palm as Kidd hit the floor before looking down with a sympathetic 'I told you' look on his face. Looking up to Liz and Patty he noticed something for the first time.
"Why don't either of you say anything when he gets that way, or when my sister hits him?" He asked. Liz shrugged.
"Two reasons: One, when he starts, you can't stop him. Two, he needs to be smacked once in a while." She replied. Akira grinned and cracked her knuckles. She obviously agreed. "C'mon, this way." Patty giggled running forward. Akira began after her but stopped short.
"OW!" The other three turned to her. Her hand was cradling the side of her arm as red began to seep through her fingers. Liz and Patty didn't get it at first but Aito understood right away.
"How did you manage to hit yourself on a smooth doorframe?" He snapped with a sigh.
"Owowowowowow!!" She whimpered in response.
It was a little while later when they had finally made it to a large black double door with a skull knocker on each side. Kidd had caught up by now and pushed the door open with a hand placed on each door, even length apart.
"Haiyo~!" The headmaster greeted them. Both siblings looked up at him, not sure how to react. For a headmaster, he seemed very… Cartoonish.
"Hello, Father, I found the new students wandering." Kidd smiled. His statement made Akira cross her arms in attempt not to hit him again.
"Correction… We found you." She replied
"Ho ho~!" He laughed. "And you must be Akira. I'm guessing this is your brother Aito. Are you two weapons or technicians?" He pressed. The two looked at each other a moment with an identical grin before Aito jumped into the air, taking on his weapon form. Akira snatched him out of the air and swung him around once before catching the other end in her opposite hand so he laid flat. "A weapon and technician! Oh ho!"He said delightedly.
Akira tossed her brother into the air and let him flip once or twice before he dropped to the ground, landing on his feet. The trio that led them there seemed to be thoroughly impressed.
"You're soul wavelengths are synched beautifully!~" The headmaster sang happily. "Welcome to Shibusen! The two of you will learn how souls sync, how to utilize your abilities, and if you train hard enough Aito could become a death weapon."
Aito seemed uninterested in the concept, though the sparkle in Akira's eyes was imminent. "How?" She demanded.
"Formalities… Don't worry for now… You'll learn everything in due course during your time at Shibusen. For the moment, you will need to know your way around." He turned toward Kidd.
"Uh… Is it possible to find someone else…"Akira began
"To tour us around the school?" As Aito finished.
"Wh-" the question was only half out before Kidd stepped out.
"I'm not worthy of such stunning symmetry… Fail…. Die…" Kidd was on the floor again, and the siblings just stared at Shinigami with a similar look of 'any more questions?'
"Hm… Alright, head back down the hallway and someone will meet you at the end." He responded as they began to turn and head for the door. "And welcome to Shibusen~!" He added once more.
"You said that already." Akira pointed out coolly, pushing the large door open. He didn't seem to hear her though.
As the door shut behind them he heard the muffled sounds of Kidd still whimpering on the other side, along with a scream Akira guessed to be Liz's. Aito stopped to turn with an odd expression.
"Just keep walking." His sister prompted him. "We probably don't wanna know."
