Chapter 3! Woop Woop! Well, In this Chapter: Mai is pronounced like May. And Mai was created by my good friend Minish-Mae C: We just came up with creating a meister and a weapon pair soooo :P
It took a couple of days living on the street, with the little pocket money I had before getting to the DWMA. It was the best few days away from my parents, but it was still really horrible to be in this situation. Lost, homeless, poor… I was all of these things. It was not fun. But when I got there, it was a well paid off wait. Filled with new faces, new and old students, hopes, and dreams. I walked in, and talked to the person in the front of the school.
"New student?" He asked me.
"Yeah…" I said back, kind of tired from my journey here.
"Glad you're here. Welcome to DWMA! Are you a weapon or a meister?"
"Weapon…" I mumbled, and he handed me a pin. On the pin there was a big bold print saying 'Weapon' across the top.I followed a bunch of other new students to a huge, open room.
We had this whole welcoming ceremony, and then we could wander around and eat something. I ate about 5 platefuls, and I stuffed myself so much, I was stuffed from the days past. There was so much to eat! Crab, steak, fruit, anything you could think of was right there. It made me wonder about Mira, her food, her shelter, her love, and it made me wish that I brought her. No… I couldn't… It would be more dangerous here than at that dreaded house anyways.
Just when I was thinking about my little sister, I slammed into someone. We both stumbled back, and I actually fell down. "Hey, watch where you're going…" I heard a girly voice say.
"Sorry…" I responded, getting back up. Standing in front of me was a girl, who looked about my age. She was dressed in a black long sleeved shirt with black and white striped sleeves, and black and white striped pants. Her eyes were a greyish blue, and her long hair was a dark brown, like dirt. In her hair was a black bow, one with Lord Death's face in the middle part, and his face was also on her shirt. My eyes instantly directed to her pin, which had the word 'Meister' on it. "You're a-"
"-You're a weapon." She said, cutting my sentence off.
"I'm still looking for a meister…" I responded, looking away, kind of blushing.
"Well, that's good. I need a weapon too. There's something about you. It's interesting. Care to be my weapon?" I just nodded. "Great." She finished. "The name's Mai. Nice to meet you… What's your name?"
"Akihiro.." I said to her, shrugging. "I'd rather not say my last name…"
"Why? Don't like it or something?"
"Something like that…"
That's where it all began. Mai and I talked all night, with a friendship in bloom. I managed to forget my pains, forget that worry, just for one night. We decided on getting a small apartment to share, she would take the bed and I would take the sofa. I learned that she likes fighting and eating, but she dislikes being treated like a prissy girl, being treated specially because she is a girl, and she also hates warm weather. I feel bad though, because after everything that she revealed to me, I still had many secrets inside. I just hope that someday, I won't be afraid to let those secrets out.
Next chapter: A 5 year timeskip! Mira will be 10 and Akihiro will be 15! :3
