Slicer McDonnelly looked into Codi's eyes. He was prepare to kill, to finish what he stared he started years ago. "I want to see the black blood." Slicer mumbled. Slowly he took one of his claws and started cutting open Codi flesh. "Ah ha! Zodiac Shiro, the last living member of the Shiro family. The one and only survivor of the day I destroyed your village." Slicer said bitterly German accent hard not to notice since it was so thick. Same as it was back then. "Oh how I would love to see your life come to an end. To watch the black blood pool. I shiver at the thought."

Codi couldn't speak he was in too much fear. Slicer claw jerk forward and gripped Codi's head. squeezing and crushing Codi's skull. Blood was spilling everywhere. B-but how was that possible? Black blood was suppose to protect him! Why wasn't it protecting him?!

Codi spang up in his bed. It was all just a messed up nightmare... It wasn't real was it? Slicer had to be dead by now. It has been years since he went and killed all of codi' friends and family. His whole village in Germany. Codi stood up and started walking towards the bathroom. He went to the sink and splash water in his face. He reach over and grab his glasses. Slowly he put them on.

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!

Codi wanted to screech those word when he saw slicer face in the mirror standing right next to him. Codi blink and then slicer disappeared. Codi shook his head walking back to his room. It wouldn't matter if he missed one day of school, would it? Little did Codi know that him missing this day of school was the worst idea of his life.

The whispered and the rumors went around.

"Did you hear?"

"Hear what?"

"Last week they found the kishen Kazama, and just last night they found the kishen Slicer McDonnelly. Both were targeting students from the E.A.T class. I think the kids names were... something like Zodic or Zodiac. The other students they were targeting were Hiro and Kaiser can you believe it?!"

"No, wait, People are out to kill them? Why?"

"I don't know, but it must be serious if they being targeted by Kishens"

Aqua was pissed as she walked down the halls. As was shadow the two made their way down the halls people sneaking glances at them spreading more gossip like, "I wonder how they feel about it, I mean isn't there a love triangle going on between those two and that one kid, Zodiac?"

"Yeah I would probably die if my lover was face to face with death."

Aqua felt like punching every signal one of them. Shadow just wanted to get away from the attetion and she was scared to know if the rumors were slightly true. Did Aqua have a crush on Codi? "J-Just ignore them come on were almost there, I'm sure Kiara is wondering where you went." Aqau muttered to Shadow.

Shadow nodded her head as she enter her third period class. She looked to her side to find Aqua with blood-shot eyes. "You alright?"

Aqua nodded. "I'm just scared. I know why Slicer is going after Codi, and I'm so scared..." Shadow was jealousy, but she ignored it as she grab Aqua and hugged her.

Trust?... Rose questioned her self. She was such a hypocrite. She just sat by and let Peter tell everyone Tori's darkest secrets, but when it was her turn to open up and trust everyone she just turned around and walked. What was that thing that Tori said? 'If you keep things hidden they're bound to come out...?' something like that. Her and everyone had study hall at the moment. They all sat at the same desk as last time. Everyone thoughts were all focus on their old life their own secrets. What had happen one minute they were all laughing and having fun, the next some ones committing suicide and three others are being watch by killers.

Codi rushed into the library heading toward their desk. "I-It's time I come clean. You guys deserve to know now that he is now a threat to you all. Now. That. I am. A threat. To you. All." Codi choked out.

Kiara jumped at his sudden appearance. "Continue" She encourage.

"I been keeping something from you all except you, Aqua" As Codi said that jealousy flared in Shadow again. "I-I have black blood inside me! My family was killed years ago by that Kishen Slicer. He destroyed my village! Now he wants me dead because of my blood."

Everyone stared at him in shocked. Tori slowly smiled. "Alright then things are starting to get interesting... We got two killers after DWMA each wanting to kill students. Hm there is only one way this is going to go down. You guys better prepare; I have a feeling those two won't just stop with petty fights with the death scythes. They're going to join forces and gather others."

Kento nodded his head. "Come on we should probably share this information with Lord Kid."

"Yeah, Yeah I'm on it." Tori said getting up. Everyone stared at her. She just stood there waiting for everyone to come to the death room with her.

Peter was the first to speak. "Is this the real you or this another act?" Everyone was standing now heading out the door they didn't want to be apart of this.

Tori thought for a long minute. "What do you mean?" She asked softly.

"Smart, cunning, normal." Peter said staring straight at her.

Tori sighed. "I forgot who the real me is months ago. When Jonathon jump off that cliff." She started to walked away following everyone else. "But just so you know the real me is far from normal." She shut the door behind her leaving him alone.

Where did he go wrong? Oh it might have been when he was born, probably before that; when he was conceived. Why you ask? Because his father was a kishen, killing is in his blood. There is no guarantee he won't betray anyone of these people he called friends. He grab his bag and threw it across the room, with that he stormed out.

"Alright we will send out teams to track those two down. Thank you for all your guys help. The school's going to be going in a grave time. You guys learned what happen what happen years ago before you were all born; when the kishen Arusa had awoken. The past seems to be repeating it self here just with new people and new enemies. I hope you will all use your time wisely and train anything can happen now, and there is no guessing how long it will take for things to take action."

Everyone bowed their heads before leaving the room. The all went to the park and sat around. "So... We could all die." Tori said boredly.

"You know you have a beautiful outtake one life?" Shadow said saracasticly.

"Yeah I know, but since your stating the obvious I might as well too. Hey guess what your boyfriend will probably be the first to have his head rip off and severed on a platter!" Tori retorted.

"Atleast he isn't dead yet unlike yours. Oh and might I mention at least I'm dating a guy around my age, shank!" Shadow said spitting in Tori's face. Tori jump up and bitch-slapped her.

Rose looked between them "Stop! Stop please stop!" She screech.

"Yeah take a breath you two. As much as I would love a cat fight break out now's not the time."

"Tori what has gotten into you?" Kai asked with shock.

Tori looked to the side a far-away look in her eyes. Her eyes frittered back to Shadows. She smiled. "Sorry, I just extremely stressed." A tear slid down her cheek.

Kiara looked between the two of them before going back to examine Shadow's red cheek.

"Hey Codi what are you doing?!" Hiro shouted over at the orange hair boy.

"Using soul perception I want to see if I can find him to help with the sreach!" Codi called back.

Hiro looked over at Kaiser. "Would you mind trying to find Kazama as well?" Kaiser asked.

"On it."

"Jeez Codi you can't do this on your own black blood or no black blood. Come let's do soul resonance." Aqua said walking to stand next to him on the huge rock.

Everyone just sat around as those two continued with that. Peter hadn't been seen since they all left the library.

Rose sniffed. "I have something I need to tell you all."

Everyone stared at her. "Care to elaborate?" Emily asked

"Well you when I was younger my family was killed. People one day came and burned down my house. My mother found me. We ran out of the house. everyone else died." Rose sniffed again. "My grandma, my dad, and my younger sister." Tears now ran down her face. Kiara brought her in a hug. "A year later my mother died in a car crash she was driving drunk, again. I was left alone, a orpahne. Some one adopted me... A man. He abused me a lot. I still have the scars on my back from the whip." Rose whipped at her tears as she smiled bitterly at the thought of those rugged lines marking her back. "He thought since he adopted me I was his property, his toy to use, he thought I would never break he ignored my screams of pain every night as I turned onto my back when I was sleeping. He ignored the tears running down my face every time he slap me. I think that is where Thorn came from, she came to protect me from letting people in my life, because they might hurt me and in hurting me they hurt her."

Everyone was quite as they as stared at the crying girl in front of them. The girl who they thought was naive and childlike was actually scarred and broken beyond repair. Rai looked to the side only to find a dog in the middle of the street. "Amaya girl is that you?" He asked.

That was all the dog needed it came running jumping on top of Rai to get to Kai, knocking down Rai in the process.

Kai crack a smile and look over to Rose. "Hey looked my dog knock the idiot over." It work Kai got Rose to smile. Amaya went over to Rose and started licking her tears. Tori walked over to Kai; stepping on Rai in the process which wasn't good for Rai since she was wearing combat boots. Kento, Kaiser, and Hiro were on the floor laughing at Rai's pain.

Tori put a hand on Kai's hand. she brought her head down and whispered in Kai's ears. "Thank you. I-I know things are change and my damn argue issue aren't helping anything, but we need stuff like that more often people making others smile. Thing are going to get tought soon, the only thing we will have left when this is done is smiles and tears."

Kai looked over and smiled at Tori. "You came here to change right? Well don't We all might not have become friends if it weren't for you meeting us all in that training room, if you had not invited us over to your apartment. We would not have met if you were not this mess you are."

Another tear fell down Tori's face. That was what she wanted was to have real friends one who didn't use her. She wanted to make people smile like everyone else, but her damn flaws always made them frown. Screw it! She was going to make sure they all made it out of this fight alive. But how much could she really handle, perhaps she wouldn't be at help at all, and everyone else will have to save her and clean the mess she made once again. Well all there is left is to wait and see now.

I still got two more enemys I can use I can't wait for those. Uhg okay so where is this story going from here? Let's see I pretty sure you can guess. A lot of fights all of them leading to the big fight where The twins, Codi, and Peter get their revenge. If you couldn't already guess Tori is going to be absolutely useless in that fight that was what I had hinted at here. They starting to trust people more, and your seeing more of their true selfs. So many charters have depressing background's, right. Trust me it should all be happy sunshine and smiles in the end.
