Enjoy~!
o0o
Kimi panted, glaring at her enemy; herself. This is endless! She knows my every move! she thought, narrowly dodging the girls next move.
How can I kill myself? Whats my biggest weakness? she questioned herself, searching for an answer, there had to be an answer.
"Heh, I guess you haven't figured anything out yet." the young girl chuckled, enjoying the moment. "Its ok, you could always just give up." she suggested, smirking; she already knew the answer.
"No thanks." Kimi scoffed. "I'd rather die."
"That can be arranged." she told Kimi coldly, still smirking.
Kimi narrowed her eyes as they both launched at each other, looking for an opening. I can't remember what my weakness it! Why not? Whats going on? she growled, scowling as she tried to remember, but failed each time. She couldn't even remember what happened before this.
"Heh, is your memory leaving you, yet?" the girl asked, giggling. Kimi growled, tightening her grip on the knife. "If you want, I could tell you what your weakness is - well, I'd give you a hint." she suggested.
Kimi pondered that for a moment; agree? She doubted she would get the truth. But what was her other option? She cursed under her breath as she waited.
"I'll take that as a yes." she chuckled. "Its in one of these pictures. I'm sure you'll know when you see it." she told her.
Kimi gazed at the pictures, barely looking at them; she was looking for something -or someone- familiar. There was a flash of blue in almost every picture; did she know why? No. Did she care? Not really.
She continued to search as she dodged the girls attacked. She stopped suddenly, seeing something strange; in the picture there was a strange looking creature smiling in the picture. It was tipping its hat as he held its cane.
Memories came flooding back to her as her eyes widened at the picture. "Excalibur..." she murmured, taking a step towards the picture.
She got stopped suddenly, getting kicked in the side, making her fly towards the other side. She coughed out blood as she fell to the floor.
"Heh, got you." a teasing voice sung, giggling at the end.
Kimi sat up, grinning. The girl titled her head slightly, confused. "I know... What my weakness is..." she murmured.
"Oh?" the girl looked amused. "Please, enlighten me."
Kimi shakily stood up, lightly smirking. "C'mon, you have to already know." she stated.
The girl frowned. "I do." Kimi smirk grew. "But," Kimi scowled. "I'm sure you got the wrong person." she told her.
"What?" she scowled deeply. "No," she smirked lightly again, shaking her head. "I'm sure I got the right person, the one closest to me."
"Heh, then please, tell me. If your right, you get to land a hit on me." she told her.
"Whats the downside?" Kimi asked, eyeing the girl suspiously.
"If your wrong, you can't move for 10 seconds." she stated, smiling brightly, though it was twisted.
"What do you mean by that?" she asked, frowning as her eyebrows knitted together.
The girl sighed, shaking her head. "You can't move your feet. So, you would have to stay right there." she told her, pointing towards her feet. "Got it?" she questioned.
Kimi nodded, lightly scowling. "Your weakness - no, our weakness is Excalibur." she stated.
The girl froze, then relaxed, smiling. "Hmph, I thought, just for a second, that you might've figured it out." Kimi gave her a questioning look. "But, in the end, you got the wrong person." the girl giggled, grinning madly.
"What?" Kimi shouted, shocked. "Thats impossible! The only reason-"
"Its not him." she shrugged. "You two are too alike. He has no way of pretecting you. Hes not the one." the girl spat. "Face it." the girl got into a fighting mode. "Now, stay there for 10 seconds!" she laughed as she lunged.
Kimi gave an annoyed sound as she planted her feet in the ground, counting for ten seconds. The girl tried to kick her in the head, though, Kimi ducked out of the way, her feet not moving. "Face it, you can't beat me." the girl laughed madly.
Kimi scoffed. "We'll see." she spat. 5 second left. she thought as she used her arm to block the next kick. 3... 2... 1...
The girl jumped in the air, ready to peirce Kimi with the knifes coming out of her shoes(A/N: whoa... Kimi had some dangerous stuff when she was a kid xD). Kimi smirked lightly as she swiftly moved out of the way.
"Aw, I did it too late..." the girl sighed, smirking. "Oh well. We can always play again." she giggled. "Besides, you only have 10 minutes left." she stated, grinning.
Kimi's eyes widened, what? That can't be possible... We've only been her for around 20 minutes... "Did you know" the girl suddenly asked.
Kimi whipped her head up, seeing the girl play with her hair. "that time seems more slow here?" she gave a small smirk as she glanced at Kimi. "Wouldn't you hate it if you were stuck up here?" she asked, her smirk turning into a thin line. "I hate it."
Kimi rubbed the back of her head. "Of course I would hate it. What normal person wouldn't?"
"I get to watch your past over and over again when you sleep." she told her, ignoring her comment. "Though, that only happens when you don't have any dreams." she shrugged.
Kimi raised an eyebrow. "That must happen alot. I rarely have dreams," she looked at her palms. "If I do, they are usually about..." she trailed off, looking back up at the giggling girl. "Whats so funny now?" she asked, annoyed.
"You are. You have dreams almost every night you sleep." she stated.
"What?" she barked, frowning. "That can't be true. I would remember them."
"Yes, you would." the girl nodded, agreeing, then she smirked again. "But, you choice not to."
"Huh?"
"Would you like me to tell you what your dream is?" she asked. "Its been the same ever since you came to DWMA."
Kimi looked horrified before she scowled, nodding.
"Its about a special blue haired ninja." the girl chuckled, almost sadly. Kimi looked horrified, this time, though, she didn't try to hide it.
"Its 'bout me killin' him, right?" she chuckled, nervously. "I knew I was a weirdo, haha." she suddenly got punched in the face, flying backwards.
She sat up, spitting out some blood. "Why, I'm gonna..."
"You wouldn't kill him!" the girl spat, scowling deeply. "Hes apart of your life. In your dreams, you would be depressed. Images of your -no, our- clans death would fly by. Though, it would suddenly change. You'd reopen your eyes and you'd feel much warmth. Besides you, is that blue haired kid. He's snuggling you..." she trailed off, smiling sadly.
"That can't be true!" she barked, shooting up, angered. Though, it felt so true...
"I'm jelous of you, yet I feel pity for you." she murmured, in thinking mode.
"W-what...?"
"Your pretty and you have someone who cares for you." she shook her head, smiling sadly still. "No, you have many people who care for you, you just don't relize it."
"Who would care for a monster like me? They all think that my clan is a monster, and grandpa doesn't help..." she murmured, holding back tears that threatened to fall.
"Heh, no one there thinks that." she snapped her head up, shocked. "Kid and Crona, they admire you. Along with Maka, Soul, Tsubaki, Stein, even Shinigami-sama." she told her. "Though, Excalibur and Black*star, they don't only admire you, they love you. Excalibur thinks of you like a little sister, while Black*star... Well, he-" she was cut off by a knife to her throat.
"Don't speak." she murmured, frowning. "I don't care about him!" she shouted, about to cut off her head.
Then, something strange happened; the knife suddenly fell from her hand, slowly falling to the ground. Kimi's eyes were widened as she fell on her knees as she tried to figure out what was wrong. Wha... Whats going...on...? it hurt to think, to even keep her eyes open and to breath.
"Oh..." the girls voice bent down towards the ground, where Kimi fell. "I guess times up. Too bad... I kinda wanted to see what happened between you and that blue haired kid." she murmured, sighing as she stood up. "I'm going to be taking over your body now. Your going to die, slowly. I can't really change that." she told her, truthfully. "I would end your pain now. I'm not a mean person."
"I'm going to have to kill your two friends; y'know, Excalibur and Black*star." she sighed, scratching the back of her head. "I'll end Black*star's suffering quickly, no pain, deal?" she smiled at Kimi's motionless body. She frowned. "I know your not dead yet... But, you seem like you are." she murmured, standing up.
Excalibur and Black*star... They are going to die...? she thought, cringing at the pain. They can't die! she thought, tears falling down her motionless face.
The girl bent down once again, petting Kimi's head soothing.
Black*star
Panting, he jumped backwards twice, dodging the pure black sythe. "Dang! Hasn't she beaten the madness yet?" he barked, growling.
Excalibur's reflection showed on the pure white sword. "No, not yet. If it was time for her to come, she would've fallen to the ground by now."
He scowled as he saw her body staggered, her eyes widening. "What happening?" he asked, confused.
Excalibur turned into human form suddenly, slighlty scaring Black*star. "Its time. It will show us if she made it..." he trailed off.
"Or not." Black*star finished, frowning. Excalibur just nodded.
Suddenly, Kimi's body gripped her head, squeezing her eyes shut tightly. Then she screamed in pain as wind started to pick up around her.
"W-whats going on?" Black*star asked, his arm infront of his face, pretecting him from the wind. Excalibur did the same as he gasped.
"No... Its not possible..." he murmured, eyes widened.
"Whats wrong!" Black*star shouted once again, angry.
Excalibur shook his head sadly. "She didn't beat it..." he murmured, then turned into his sword mode, landing in Black*star's suddenly cold palms. His reflection showed in the sword. "This is her most weakest state right now! The madness took over her body, so we can't afford wait!" he shouted in the wind. "We have to kill her now!"
Black*star froze, time slowing. New girl... She failed...? Thats impossible, though! How could she lose! he thought, slowly trudging through the harsh wind to Kimi's screaming body.
As he was inside the tornado surrounding her. He stopped, a few inchs from her. He suddenly stuck Excalibur in the ground.
"Black*star?" he shouted, confused.
"I'm sorry." he mumbled as he ignored the weapon and walked to Kimi, only an inch or two away from her. "I have something to tell you." he shouted, though, it still screamed.
"I love you, Kimi!" he stated. Kimi's body stopped screaming and looked at him, confused, though its eyes still seemed dead.
He smiled kindly as he started to lean towards her, closing his eyes. Soon, his lips locked onto hers, softly.
This is my first kiss(A/N: I'm sure its Kimi's too xD)... I-I think I love you, Kimi. Ya, that sounds right. I love you, Kimi.
Kimi
Her cold body suddenly grew warmer, mostly her lips. Wha... Whats going on...? she thought, tiredly. I could've sworn I was dieing she thought, sitting up.
She saw the girl laying on the ground besides her. Kimi crawled towards her, shaking her slightly; her body was freezing.
"What happened?" she asked outloud.
The girl smiled softly. "That Black*star kid is saving you -even when Excalibur stated it was too late. But, somehow, he managed to save you. I think its because of what he said." she gave a sly smirk.
"W-what?" she asked, confused and a little flushed. "Why are you all cold though?" she asked, concern.
"Because, your body isn't sure which one should go back into it. I won, so I should. Yet, you have unfinished business." she chuckled. "You'd have to kill me." she told her.
Kimi gasped. "What? But..."
"Its the only way. If one of us don't die, then we both disappear forever."
"If I kill you, then thats like cheating. You won fair and square." she told her.
"Heh, I thought that if you play fair and square it'd "only get you and your partner killed one day"." the girl quoted chuckling as she saw Kimi frown.
"But-"
"Its ok. I'll probly come back anways." Kimi raised an eyebrow. "You see, just because you kill me, doesn't mean I won't come back." she giggled. "I've been in your brain since you first met you grandpa." she told her.
Kimi sighed, shaking her head with a small smile on her lips. "I guess your right... I never could get rid of you." she chuckled. "I guess, I'll see you next time. Deal?"
The girl smiled, holding out her hand. "Deal." she and Kimi grabbed each others hands as they shook.
Then, Kimi cut off the girls head, no pain coming from it. It started to become brighter around her, though the large blank space was still there.
Instead, though, it started to play something.
She gasped as she saw Black*star stab Excalibur into the ground.
"Black*star?" he shouted from his weapon form. Kimi scowled, whats he doing? Gonna kill me with your bare hands? she questioned, resting her hand on her hip.
"I'm sorry." she heard Black*star mumbled before he stopped infront of the screen, only a few inchs from it. "I have something to tell you."
I'm guessing hes talking to me... she thought, swifting her feet, she felt like she knew what was about to happen. I'm guessing the screen is me... she guessed, watching closely.
Then something crazy happened. "I love you, Kimi!" he told her, just before he leaned down and kissed her.
Kimi's face became pure red, like a tomato. H-he... she paused, relizing something. He called me Kimi... Not New Girl... she thought, gapping before smiling softly. Then her face became red once more. He stole my first kiss! she mentally whined. (A/N: See? What'd I tell ya xP)
Black*star
He slowly backed away from Kimi's suddenly frozen body, only her lips were warm. "Whats wrong now?" he asked, worried.
"I-I don't know!" Excalibur called back. "Just come back over here!" he ordered. Black*star obeyed and bolted towards Excalibur.
Once they were reunited, they both stared at Kimi, worriedly, though Excalibur still smirked little. "I aprove." he muttered, though Black*star still heared.
"Huh?" he questioned, raising an eyebrow.
"I aprove of you dating Kimi." he told him, slyly smirking as Black*star became flushed.
"W-wha...!"
Before he could continue, the wind suddenly died down. Both Black*star and Excalibur heistated to run forward. "Kimi?" Excalibur called as Black*star stayed silent.
They heared caughing, before someone groaned. "Ugh... Excalibur...?" a voice echoed towards them.
"Kimi!" they both shouted as they ran towards the noise.
Kimi
My whole body is numb... Why can't I move it? Or feel it? she thought, groaning at the sudden pain that kept coming.
"Kimi!"
Black*star? Or Excalibur...? I'm not sure which... Why do I want it to be Black*star...? Ugh, my head hurts. she lightly whimpered as she cleared her throat.
"O-over here..." she barely called.
There were soon rushing footsteps running towards her before they suddenly stopped a foot or two away.
"Whoa! What happened to you?" a voice asked, shocked. Yup, thats the idiot. she mentally rolled her eyes as she tried to open them.
"What do you mean-?" Excalibur. "Kimi! How'd she get those?" he demanded.
What are they talking about? Get what?
"I don't know! Not from us!" Black*star told him.
What are they talking about? she thought, annoyed. "What are you talking about...?" she questioned, barely above a small whisper.
She slowly opened her eyes; at first, the images were blurry. All she could see was a blue haired figure, which she knew was Black*star, and then a pure white smaller figure, which she knew was Excalibur.
Soon, they images became clear -she found out she was right about who was who- and she gave them a questioning look. "You guys are idiots." she murmured before she sat up, grunting along the way.
Then the pain came. Well, atleast I can feel again... But why does it hurt all over? she pondered this for a moment before looking at herself.
Scars.
There was cuts and blood on almost every inch of her body. "Whoa!" she muttered, shocked. She studied them, they look fimiliar... she thought, narrowing her eyes as she studied them harder.
Her eyes widened as she figured it out. Thats it! These are the same wounds I got when I was fighting the little me! I guess they followed me when I came out of my brain... Weird. she thought, scowling.
She looked up, giving a sheepish smile. "Sorry, I got these when I was fighting the madness." she scratched the back of her head as she gave a nervous chuckled.
"Why didn't you be careful?" Excalibur almost whined as he helped her up.
"Sorry." she murmured, whincing as she tried to put down her right leg, the main one.
Black*star suddenly rapped his arm around her waist as he put her arm around his shoulder, though his hand still held onto her wrist. "Huh?" her face becoming red as she gave a confused look.
He just chuckled. "You look pretty cute when your red." soon after those words came out, he was hit with Excalibur's cane. "Hey!" he shouted, glaring at Excalibur.
"It wasn't me!" he told him. "Honest! Kimi did it."
"Heres your cane back." she smirked as she tossed him his cane, which he happily took.
Black*star growled under his breath as he suddenly picked up Kimi, bridal style.
"Ah!" she clunge to him, her face becoming red right after. She quickly let him go, though she found out he didn't do the same. "Oi, let me go, idiot." she murmured, poking his chest. Its... Kinda soft... she thought, chuckling.
"Lets get going before-" Excalibur was suddenly cut off by a sudden shadow appearing a few feet ahead of him.
"Whos that?" Black*star questioned, raising an eyebrow.
"No one else can get here without knowing where he lives..." Kimi started.
"No one knows where he lives but us..." Excalibur finished, sweat starting. "Run!" he hissed as he and Black*star took off, running back towards the woods.
Were not going to make it... Kimi thought, tightly closing her eyes. Hes going to catch us... He always catchs me... she shot her eyes opened, glaring at nothing really. This is no time to be scared! Its my turn to beat him! she growled lowly under her breath as they suddenly stopped.
Looking up, she saw the shadowy figure take off the cloaks hood, showing his face. "Where are you going, Kimi?" he asked, sounding as if he cared.
Kimi choked, swallowing. "I-I'm leaving..." she told him, obviously scared, though, not for herself, but for the two boys next to her.
"Hm. But you can't." he told her, smirking as he took a step closer. "You see, the only projects you had were #1 and #2. But you never gave me the first one."
Kimi scowled, standing up. She felt her heat leave her, making her cold once more. "Give me the diamond you two have." she told Black*star, her palm open for it.
"What? You can't give it to him." he told her.
"Give it!" she snarled. "You wanna live?" he kept quiet, never seeing her so... Angry. "Then give it to me!"
"Kimi..." Excalibur murmured, frowning slightly. She never got this mad...
"Heh, who said they would live?" he asked, smirking.
Kimi whipped her head towards him, in a fighting stance. "Then theres no point in giving it to you." she stated, coldly.
He frowned. "C'mon Kimi. You must be smarter then that! You have a chance to save yourself! I say you should take it." he told her.
Kimi scoffed. "No thanks. I'd hate to see friends of mine dead." she spat. Black*star beamed at the little sentence, happy he was her friend -or maybe more. "Anyways, we'll be taking our leave now." she told him, turning her back on his as she walked a little bit past Black*star and Excalibur.
"Why, you little...!" he muttered before he suddenly disappeared.
"Kimi!" Black*star shouted, turning around to see that Kimi was holding onto Excalibur's weapon form as they held off the old man.
"I know!" she shouted back. Black*star tried to kick the old man, since he was busy with Kimi, though he moved out of the way at the last minute.
The old man landed away from them, on his roof as he studied his prey. "Black*star," Kimi hissed, whispering to him. "we are going to make a run for it. Stay by me at all times ok?" she asked, he nodded slowly.
"Ya."
"Good." she murmured before she stood up straight. "SOUL RESONANCE: DARK!" Excalibur and her shout together as Excalibur glowed.
Black*star
Black*star gasped as he saw her soul for the first time. It had a thick chain around it. In the middle of it, there was a the word "curse" written. It was pure black and pure white at the same time, like Yin and Yang. It also had two sword-looking things going into the sword, as if it got stabbed by them.
"Whoa..." he murmured, studing the soul.
Kimi
Excalibur stopped glowing as his new form showed. Kimi looked down as she saw his new weapon form - the katara. One in each hand and a little chain hooking the two together.
Excalibur and I have two forms - dark and light. Our first form -the dark one- is when Excalibur turns into a katara; I'm not sure why... Hm, maybe I'll figure it out later...
If we live that long.
"Lets go!" she shouted as she lunged at her grandpa.
"Ah, so your finally going to kill me?" he laughed madly. "Great! Lets go!" he laughed as he dodged the attack. He suddenly disappeared.
"Whats happening?" Black*star asked, narrowing his eyes as he looked for the old man.
Kimi slightly relaxed. "Its ok. He went inside."
He gave her a confused look. "Why?"
"Because I need my weapon, silly boy." the old man chuckled, grinning, as he let his weapon rest on his shoulders. It was a bat-like sword kind of weapon. The hilt and the size was like a bat, while the shape was a sword - no one really knew which it was.
"Looks kinda rusty." Excalibur commented, his reflection showing.
"Its always looked like that." Kimi stated, indifferent. She tightened her grip on Excalibur before she disappeared, reappearing as she tried to kick the old man.
He used his weapon to dodge, though his shoes slipped, making him fall flat on his face. "Ow." he mumbled, not moving.
Kimi raised her fist, indifferent. "You've lost your touch, old man." she stated before she swung her fist down towards his head. Just before it would've hit it, she was suddenly hit in the ribs and thrown backwards.
"Hah, your still an idiot. If you didn't wait to talk, you would've killed me!" he laughed madly, licking the blood off his weapon.
"D-dang." she grunted as she stood back up, scowling. She quickly wipped the blood dripping from her mouth off. She got into fighting mode once more.
"Haha! You still wanna fight! This is so fun!" the old man laughed with pleasure as he disappeared. Kimi swiftly stepped to the side, just before the old man reappeared behind her. "Aw, I missed." he frowned as he lifted up his weapon again.
Kimi lunged at him once again, barely scratching his head. "I missed." she muttered, frowning.
"Kimi..." Excalibur whispered, his reflection showing. "We can't beat him by using our Dark mode." he told her.
Kimi scowled. "I know. We'd have to use our Light mode." he nodded, indifferent. Kimi opened her mouth to speak, then snapped it closed as she dodged the bat-like sword. As she landed, she continued. "But, last time I used it, it almost..." she trailed off, using the chain to stop the hit she was about to recieve.
"I know. It almost cleansed your soul." he finished, nodding.
Kimi scowled, its the reason I don't have a pure black soul anymore.
"But, I'm sure-" he tried again, getting cut off by Kimi using him.
"No! I'll use my own methods fight!" she barked as she used her soul to attack the old man.
"Soul Menace." she whispered as she twisted her foot, which was on the old mans back. The old man flew forward as Kimi slowly put her foot back down. "Black*star." she called.
He appeared behind her. "Lets go." she nodded towards the woods as she took off towards it. She was going at a jogging pace, which was full speed running to Black*star. "We are almost out." she called, relief. Though, it was quickly replaced with nervousness. I wonder what will happen when I get back? I alos wonder why he isn't following us... He wouldn't let us escape. she pondered this for a moment, then stopped when she heard a munching sound from a distance.
Her eyes widened as her eyebrows knitted together. No... He wouldn't... The munching sound increased. Kimi skidded to a stop just as she reached the outskirts of the woods. H-he...
"Whats wrong?" Black*star asked as he stopped a little bit behind Kimi.
"He..." Kimi gulped, her eyes stilled widened. "Hes eating innocent souls... Hes defently gone mad this time..." she whispered outloud as her grip of Excalibur tightened.
"Kimi-" both Excalibur and Black*star were cut off by Kimi.
"Stay here, or leave to DWMA." she told Black*star. "I'll be right back." she promised, though she knew it was a lie.
"But-"
It was too late, she was gone.
