SOUL EATER: ~AFTERMATH~
Chapter 4 - A New Student to Attend... Consorting with the Enemy?
Stein slowly released the skull-faced kid's scythe. He proceeded to look him over as if studying him. Once he had finally finished "examining" the kid he clapped his hands together and spoke.
"Yes... You would make a perfect student... What is your name young man?" Stein spoke ecstatically.
"His NAME is Messor! And I'm sure he doesn't want to be your stinking student! Right buddy?" The scythe answered for him.
"I'm sorry? I don't believe I have your name either." Stein said this time to the scythe.
"My name is Ryder and that's because I didn't give it to you... wait... CRAP! Well either way, I'm sure he doesn't want to become your-"
"Shut up Ryder..." Messor dropped the scythe, which reverted to its human form. Ryder was a tall young man in a bright white suit. He had lime green hair that was almost down to his shoulders. The expression on his face was one of disgust.
"What? Messor you can't actually be thinking about going with this nut!" Ryder shouted.
"Last I checked... you're my weapon. Right? That means you really have no say in what I do. Now... what exactly would happen if I became your... 'student'...?" He asked Stein.
"Well... You would attend the Death Weapon Meister Academy. You wouldn't have to stay there but we insist you attend your classes daily. Also you wouldn't be able to kill other students-"
"YEAH!" Said Dani sticking her tongue out.
"...Where's the fun in that?" Messor asked tilting his head slightly as if twitching. Dani's expression went from one of self satisfaction to one of fear.
"Hm... I can't exactly say that it is fun... But you'd be able to hone your skills far better at the DWMA than out on your own." Stein explained.
"SHUT YOUR FACE! Me and Messor don't need your stupid academy! We're already the two most powerful peo-"
Stein delivered a blow loaded with his soul wavelength into Ryder's gut causing him to collapse.
"I hope you don't mind, he was really starting to get on my nerves." Stein said smiling.
"Not at all. Where is this school anyway?" Messor asked.
"It's in the center of Death City. Just follow the long stair case past Bob's Coffee shop."
"... I'll consider it." Messor said quietly before grabbing Ryder by the neck of his suit and vanishing.
Stein returned his view to Jake who looked completely worn out and Dani who was still slightly shaking. He put his hands on their shoulders.
"I believe I owe you a day off. What do you say?" Stein told them in a polite voice.
"Y-yeah..." Said Jake shuddering at the thought of his battle earlier.
"Thanks Professor Stein..." Dani said beginning to calm down.
"Well... with that taken care of, I'll see you on Friday..." Stein turned an walked away in the direction of the DWMA. Dani and Jake stared blankly at each other for a moment before following him... What would become of the kid with the skull on his face? Would he attend the academy? They decided that all would be known in due time.
