Maka was glowing with happiness... literally. She was sitting in the grass next to Liz watching the others play basketball (mostly Soul of course). Next to her, the older blonde placed her sunglasses from the top of her head to the bridge of her nose, all the while muttering about the weird powers that angels have. (Her and Patty were a pair of the few humans that were chosen to work with angels, such as Kidd.) The smaller blonde suddenly jumped at the very loud male version of womanizer ringing from her pocket. She then groaned and pulled her cell phone out of her pocket to see it flashing bright blue with the words PAPA across the top.

The game stopped and the group walked over, all but Soul recognizing the ringtone and getting ready to be amused by Maka's strange father. The blonde held the phone out before swiping the call button and answered loudly so he could her.
"MAKAAA~!" he screamed hysterically. She brought the phone by her ear, but still far enough so that she wouldn't become deaf in case of a surprise spaz-attack from Spirit.
"Yes Papa?"
"Daddy's picking you up in a bit, so make sure you're ready, ok?"
"What?! But papa, I still have school!"
"Sorry my sweet angel, but we were called into work early today, you know how we can't do anything about that." Kidd's face grew grimm as his own phone started ringing along with Soul's.
"But Papa I-"
"I'll see you in a bit my Maka!" CLICK

Maka just sighed and stared as the two boys in front of her simultaneously answered their fancy-looking phones, got extremely pissed off, tried to answer back in protest, quickly shut their mouths, and have the other line end just as abruptly as her own. "My Papa will be here soon" "I gotta go" My father just summoned me" Maka, Soul, and Kidd said at the same time. Kidd and Maka glanced at each other, knowing that it was probably about the fallen and nodded once before Kidd grabbed Liz and Patty's hands and running towards his skateboard and their Vespa.

The blonde then turned to Soul. "I guess I'll see you tomorrow Soul." The albino's blue eyes had hardened, but he flashed a grin before turning on his heel and waving.
"See ya later Maka." he jumped on his motorcycle and sped off at an alarming speed that was anything but legal. She then turned to the remaining pair and smiled apologetically.
"We'll see you tomorrow Maka. Good luck with your job." Tsubaki smiled warmly at the troubled girl before dragging Blackstar to their next class.

She turned slowly before walking towards the front of the school to wait for her strange father to pick her up, which wasn't very long considering they only lived a few blocks away. Maka opened the passenger door and got into the car before her father took off.
"Papa, this is about the fallen, isn't it?" Maka stated more than asked, already knowing the answer.
"Yeah. According to Lord Death, he's about the same age as you and he's come to redeem himself. I'm not to sure though, this kid sounds like bad news."
"What did he do that made him become a fallen?"
"He killed his older brother."

Soul muttered all the way up the very (emphasis on very) long set of stairs leading up to the strangely symmetrical building that awaited him, the sun seeming to laugh at him for even showing up at this place and all of his goals. He was actually having fun for once and his"appointment" was moved up ahead of time. What the hell?!He finally reached the top and walked towards the massive doors. he stopped right before opening them to take a deep breath and putting on his "mask" so it would seem that he didn't mind the stares and looks of disgust that awaited him on the other side of this door.

3,2,1, go. He pushed his way into the building and felt a strange tingling sensation as he morphed into his normal form. His eyes turned from light blue to crimson, his white hair grew out in wild spikes, and the biggest change of all: his wings. He felt relieved being able to have them out again, but they also brought on those stares that he was predicting. He just kept on walking straight up to the lady at the front desk as his massive black wings spread out behind him.

"I have an appointment with Lord Death, care to tell me where I can find him?" Soul asked, looking as cool as possible. The lady just frowned at the albino.
"Why would Lord Death want to talk with you? Get out before I call security"
"That's quite alright Jacqueline. I will take him from here." an all to familiar voice said. Soul slowly turned in the direction of the voice to find Kidd standing in front of him, his stripes now circling his entire head. Soul groaned.

"Oh god, your His son aren't you" he said as he dragged his hand down his face.
"Yes, I am the son of Lord Death, Death the Kidd. And I see that my suspicions were correct in assuming that you are Soul E. Evans from earlier."
"Oh whoop-dee-doo, can we just hurry this up. I was actually having a good day and then this stupid thing got called up early."
"Ah, about that. If you hurt Maka in any way, just know that I will be the first one to put you back in your place Fallen." Kidd spit out the name as if it were poison.

"What, are you her boyfriend or something? Chill out. I'm not planning on doing anything to Maka, or anyone for that matter. Which, in case you haven't noticed, is why I am here." Soul gestured to himself and the building.
"No, I am not in that kind of a relationship with Maka, we've been best friends since I can remember. Not to mention her stunning symmetry!"
"Her symmetry?" Soul sweat-dropped.
"Why yes, it is just amazing! When we-" Kidd stopped himself as he realized they were right outside his father's office. "This is it. Don't be rude, got it?"

The doors opened and the pair walked inside, revealing the tall, cloaked angel known as Lord Death. His wings were huge compared to Soul's and Kidd's, along with the other pair of angels standing next to him. Soul then turned his attention towards them, drowning out the conversation between father and son. the one on the left was a tall man with red hair and a stern gaze staring straight at Soul, making him feel uncomfortable. He then looked at the girl beside him and felt that strange feeling again. She had long, dirty blonde hair and emerald eyes that seemed to sparkle with curiosity. Why does she look so familiar?

"Fallen!"
"Yes sir!" Soul looked up at Lord Death, standing at attention.
"You wanted to redeem yourself right? I decided that you should stay with Spirit and his daughter for a while as an example of what to do and go with them on any missions I may have for you. But only you will be able to turn yourself back into an angel again. Okay?" he said in a surprisingly cheerful voice.
"Uhh, ok?"
"Great! I'll leave you guys to the introductions, I've got a new episode of Once Upon a Time to watch." and with that he just up and left his own office, leaving a sweat-drop fest in his wake.

"Listen here Fallen, you do anything I don't like and I'll be the first to put you in your place!" Spirit demanded, suddenly with his face only inches from his own.
"Seems like everyone really wants to put me 'in my place'. Jeez, just chill out pops, I won't do anything bad."
"Papa, calm down. You shouldn't be so rude, he's probably a nice guy." the blonde said, her hands on her hips.
"Look who's talking tiny-tits, haven't even said hello to me yet and you already make it seem like you know what I'm like."

"what did you just say about my daughter?! You're a teenage boy right? Shouldn't you be more into stuff like that?!"
"MAKA-CHOP!" the pair were on the ground, fountains of blood pouring out of their heads, an irritation mark visible on her forehead.
"You two..." she clenched her fist.
"Wait a minute, that move. what's your name?" Soul asked, despair staring to sink in.
"Didn't I tell you? That's Maka. Soul, is this because your a Fallen, or are you just stupid?" Kidd asked.
"MAKA?!" "SOUL?!" they screamed at the same time, complete despair washing over them. What have I done?
