So yes. I do not own Soul Eater. I'm going to argue with my characters again.
Alex: So how did you like your stay with Elizabeth?
Uni: It was great, thank you. By comparing her and I, I really got a sense of how warped your mind is.
Alex: So obviously Elizabeth wasn't enough. This time I think I'll threaten you with haveing Annabelle (another of my brain children but not and OC) beat you up.
Uni: Psh. I could take her.
Alex: She is a powerful fairy that can control the forces of nature. You wouldn't stand a chance.
Uni: *glare*
Anna: Tee Hee
Alex: *doubletake* What are you doing here!
Anna: Weelllllll. you only just recently dug me out of a pile of books on your bedroom floor and since have only written one sentence in me (I call the journals that I write the story of my characters in the characters) so I decided to come bug you.
Alex: I think I like Elizabeth best, she does what I say.
Review: "Well you were in foster care and it wasn't until after the defeat of the kishin Ashura that I was thinking that there would probably be more and that we could use all the help we could get then I remembered about you," He paused before asking, "So what do you say, the academy could really use you?"
Many thoughts passed through Uni's head. The one that stood out the most was: 'He's asking for my help.' Uni was not expecting that. She had figured that he would … well she hadn't exactly thought that far ahead. What did it mean? Could the DWMA be that much in need of meisters? She doubted that she was powerful enough for Lord Death to try to get her on his side with good reason. And what if she accepted? That would mean leaving her life behind to start a new one. But hadn't she already said that her life was going nowhere? It would mean leaving her foster home to live in an apartment closer to the academy. That wouldn't be that bad. but that would also mean leaving Yami and Mizuki. But she could still visit and Death knows that she was tired of Yami lecturing her all the time. And he had asked for her help. Uni was many things, but willing to turn down a cry for help was not one of them.
She was probably the most shocked of anyone in the room when she finally nodded her head. Although Lord Death showed no sign of anything but happiness as he exclaimed, "Great! Kid, why don't you show Uni around and introduce her to some faculty and students."
'Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa!' she wasn't about to just be enveloped by the academy, there questions that needed answering so that she wouldn't look like a complete idiot on her first day. First question, "Sorry for interrupting but, I was wondering what class I would be in?" It was a polite question, showing none of the panic that was in Uni's thoughts.
"Hmmm. Good question. Well, the way I see it you have two options. You can decide to start at the beginning with this year's recruits or you could get a tutor, work real hard and eventually be placed with the group your age. Even then you would still be at a disadvantage due to the fact that you wouldn't be able to practice with a weapon."
"I think I still prefer the second option." As an explanation she added, "I don't like being an odd-one-out."
Before Uni could get in another question Lord Death said, "It's decided then. Kid," and motioned for Kid to start the tour, effectively cutting off the other questions that Uni was about to ask.
The tour went … well I guess you could say well. Uni was rendered mute due to the presence of many people she didn't know but she was able to keep her eyes off the ground (mostly) and commit the layout of the school to memory. She was introduced to most of the teachers, all of them kind of bizarre in Uni's opinion.
One of the more awkward introductions was to Professor Stein, in which Kid made the introduction and Uni raised her hand in a slight 'hello'. When Uni finally looked up at him she saw that he was staring at her. Something about the way he was looking at her made her uncomfortable and she twitched slightly. At that Stein looked up at her face and into her eyes, "Well it was nice meeting you," he said and sped away on his chair.
By the time that classes were over for the day Uni had been given the tour of the school, introduced to most of the faculty and Kid had decided that it was time for Uni to meet some of her future class mates and he knew just the ones. Hopefully Maka would be able to get this girl to come out of her shell.
Kid glanced over at Uni; she was staring at the ground again, blindly following him. It wasn't actually as much of a shell as a shield. Her shyness kept her from meeting new people and the way that she was always looking at the ground gave off a feeling of being unapproachable. It was like she was shielding herself from the rest of the world, but for what reason he had no clue. She was a lot like Chrona in that regard.
As Kid kept pondering and heading towards the school roof, where he knew his friends would be, Liz remembered something and suddenly asked Uni a question that Kid didn't hear because he was too lost in thought.
"Earlier, before you tripped, you looked surprised and said, 'Wait that means-' what were you going to say?"
Uni had a puzzled look on her face until she finally remembered and said, "Oh! I was going to say that meant that it was you two who stopped the fight between me 'n Kid."
"Wait that was you!"
"Yeah," Uni blushed and looked at the ground again. It was silent for a while before Liz asked, "Why were you fighting him anyways?"
"Oh," Uni giggled when she remembered how miniscule the reason for the fight was. "He called my hair an abomination so I broke his nose."
Liz had a wide-eyed as she asked, "Really?" When Uni shyly bobbed her head affirmative, Liz burst out laughing which caused Kid to look back at them questioningly.
"What's so funny?" he asked after taking in Uni looking at the ground with a faint blush and Liz's full blown laughter.
"Oh, nothing," Liz replied. Kid didn't seem convinced but eventually he just shrugged and looked forward again, simply saying, "We're almost there."
AN:
So yes. - I say that alot. Oh well. Please review and please keep reading, trust me there are more fun parts to come, like in the next chapter when Uni meets the gang.
