I was still at Crona's side of his bed. I haven't moved, didn't budge, nothing. It's sort of like a loyal dog, who stays by its trainer because it wants love.

"Hey Maka, you in here?"

Soul asked as he walked in. I said nothing back. All I wanted, was my friend Crona back. He doesn't deserve to die, especially not like this.

"Come on Maka, everyone's worried about you. Tsubaki said she's sorry for what happened. Same with everyone else."

"If they're really "sorry" they would've come to visit me. "

I said, sniffling trying to pull myself together.

Soul offered his hand to pull me up. I smiled a bit and pulled myself up from his hand.

"Thanks Soul, I think we should go to the others now. "

"Sorry but they probably have left. "

"Left, for what?"

"Because, Lord Death said all that needed to be said. I showed them the note, told them about what happened. Lord Death is happy because two new students are gonna be arriving tomorrow. Funny, seeing two new people arriving to the DWMA, having a funeral service for Crona."

"I can't wait to see the new students, I wonder what they'll be like."

I smiled a bit.

"Come on Maka, you gonna come with me?"

"T...To where Soul?"

I asked curiously, tilting my head as I looked at him.

"Well, we have to get suits and something nice to wear for the funeral service. The whole group is going."

"Oh..okay, sounds like fun I guess. Guess it's a good reason to see them."

"Crona, you're a tough kid. I know that someday you will be seeing light again."

Soul said as he chuckled then held the door open for me.

"Thanks Soul, you're a good friend."

I smiled as I walked out of the room.

"Hey, we're partners after all. That's what we do, we look out for eachother. No matter what happens."

He smiled as he then walked out of the room. He slowly closed the door behind him.

We began walking, away from Crona's room. Trying to catch up with the others. Around the corner, they surprised us both.

"Hey Maka, looks like you're feeling great. "

Black star smirked a little.

"Hey look Maka's okay."

Tsubaki said as she smiled.

"How you feeling Maka? I know it's not my place to ask but-"

"Of course it's your place to ask Kid, you're her friend. Friends worry about each other even if its something small."

Blackstar patted Death the Kids back.

"Great now I'm going to have to fix my coat because of you Blackstar. It's now not symmetrical. "

I giggled a bit watching the others.

"Thanks guys for your concern. It's just so sad how Crona died. I wish he could live another day."

"I'm sure we'll get him back Maka. If I can surpass God, then I'm sure we can bring him back."

Blackstar smirked as he raised a thumb up.

"Well, I hate to interrupt our reunion but I think we should get our clothes before the shop closes. "

Soul said as he placed his hands in his coat pockets.

"Yeah, you're right. Come along guys!"

Blackstar said as he started to walk off.

"Must you always rush us Blackstar?"

Tsubaki asked as she caught up to Blackstar.

"You know me Tsubaki. If you wanna surpass god, you have to be early. Haha!"

We all started to walk out of the room.

It got real quiet, it was like we didn't have anything to say. 10 minutes rolled by as we started walking down the stairs of the DWMA. There were two students walking up the stairs.

"E..excuse us but is this the DWMA?"

One of the two asked us. It was a guy. Brown hair, medium height, looks buff, green eyes, and looked like he wanted to be a lawyer judging by his fancy blue suit.

"Yeah, this is the DWMA campus. I'm guessing you're the two new students Lord Death talked about?"

I asked them as I inspected them.

"Oh! So you guys know Lord Death? Wow, cool. Our parents know him. We've never met him, but we were invited to the school by Lord Death himself. I'm Ransa btw. This is my best friend Oshara. "

Ransa said as she smiled offering her hand to shake. I smiled and shook her hand. She seems nice. They both do actually.

"Well Oshara and Ransa it was nice meeting you. We'd love to chat but we have stuff to do. We'll meet up again tomorrow-"

"Now hold on Maka, I want to fight them-"

"Now hang on Blackstar, you can fight them tomorrow. Time isn't on our side right now."

Death the Kid said as he interjected.

"Bye! See you soon!"

"Can't wait to fight you Oshara! Yahoo!"

Blackstar shouted as we

We all said as we rushed down the stairs. I hated to leave them there but we had to get moving. The sun slowly fading, which means we have to hurry.

I hope we make it in time.
