Chapter 7-Stein
I scan my students trying to figure out who to be Spirit's meister. We've ruled out Ox and Kim and need to find someone fast before a teacher or student finds her. 'Too many of the kids are known,' I think as I twist my screw. 'But someone who might work is Kilik, he's not popular and he can keep a secret.' I get up and walk over to Maka and Soul who are waiting for me. "I know who might work." I say. "Follow me."
We walk through the school and out into Death City, back to the apartment and Spirit. She is still in her spot on the couch, still clutching the pillow, laying down and staring at the ceiling. I here Soul whisper to Maka, "I told you she'd go insane." Once we walk in she immediately sits up and looks at us, expecting an answer.
"I found someone that might work." I explain.
"Well then, who is it?" She demands.
"Kilik."
"What?" All three of them say together.
"He's not popular and he can keep a secret." I say, repeating my thoughts from when I first decided on him.
"No," they all said together, again.
"Then you all better find someone quick." I'm not one to ask why.
"How about him?" Spirit suddenly says, now looking out the window and pointing. Outside is a boy with red hair, not like Spirit's though, his is more of a dark orange, and a black jacket and dark blue scarf. He looked like he was just randomly walking, no place to be or to go to. His white high tops were covered with snow that you couldn't notice against the color of the shoe.
"Drake?" Maka says, "Ya, he could work."
"He's definitely not popular," Soul adds. "And I've never seen him use his weapon except on a few missions."
"Can he be trusted?" I ask.
"He has to be." Spirit answers.
"Alright then, don't just sit here, you three go get him."
