Outside, the whole class has assembled on the front step of Shibusen, with Stein leading in the front. On his left stood Maka, Kid, Liz, Patti, and the disgruntled Soul. On his right stood Kilik, Pot of Fire/Thunder, Oxford, Kim, Jacqueline, and Harvar. Yards away stood Black Star, with Tsubaki already in weapon form. Across from him stood Reki, with Yasushi to her right, and Hidzuke to her left.
"Oi, who's the weapon and who's the Meister?" Black Star asked. Reki stepped forward.
"I'm the Meister." she said with a smile. Black star laughing heartily.
"You're the Meister? This should be easy!"
"Black Star!" Tsubaki scolded him. Reki turned to Yasushi and Hidzuke, who nodded. She took off her sweater and tossed it to the side. Underneath was a small pink tubetop, which wrapped around her neck.
"Had I known we'd been fighting today, I would have worn more comfortable pants." Reki sighed. "Hidzuke, Yasushi, if you will." Hidzuke and Yasushi nodded, and turned into two bright purple lights. They shot into the air, and the the lights exploded, two blades falling from the same spot. She caught them by the handles and got into a ready position. She was a Blade Meister, who specialized in elbow blades.
"Ah, a blade meister... This should be interesting." Stein commented, taking a puff from his cigarette. Maka cocked her head to the side.
"A blade meister? are they special?" she asked.
"Blade Meisters are a bit different. Like Black Star, a blade meister's weapon can turn into different weapons. But blade weapons can turn into /anything/ that has a blade - swords, fans, and even certain types of archery weapons. But they're very hard to control. I doubt Reki can barely use more than three forms." He explained. "And an elbow blade as a main weapon is surprising. They're hard to master, and even when they /are/ mastered, they have a very low rate of hitting a target." This got both Kid and Soul's attention now.
"OH HO HO HO HO HO. I'll let you have the first strike!" Black star laughed his legendary laugh, getting into a fighting stance. Reki shrugged. Reki moved her leg, and she disappeared. Black Star tensed. "Where'd she g--"
"Black Star, behind you!" Tsubaki yelled. Black star turned around and arched his back, narrowly avoiding a swipe of a blade. Reki, who was upside down in midair, slammed her foot down to the ground, missing Black Star yet again. But as she hit the ground, concrete lightly shattered. She stood up straight, and Black Star landed a few yards away."
"Tch, she's fast." He said. "But her weapon is close range..." He contemplated moves for a second, then flung one end of Tsubaki at Reki at a high speed.
"Left! Left!" Yasushi laughed. Reki sidestepped, but could not avoid being wrapped in Tsubaki's chain.
"Huh?" Her face went blank as her feet left the ground. She panicked, as she could not loosen herself from the chain, and Black Star was ready to slice her.
"Reki, optimize!" Hidzuke shouted. Reki snapped to attention, pointing out both blades so that they pointed towards Black Star. They would hit Black Star before he could stike. But Black Star knew what she was doing.
"Tsubaki, smoke bomb mode!" The chain around Reki disappeared, and smoke enveloped her. She put her blades together, and knocked the handles. "Tsubaki, ninja blade mode!"
"Yes!" The smoke disappeared, and Black Star got ready to strike. But he paused. Reki was pointing a bow at him, with a giant arrow ready to be shot. She smirked, and released the string, the arrowing firing with Black Star straight ahead. Black Star moved to the right, and the arrow missed.
"Yasushi!" Reki shouted. The arrowed turned into a throwing star, with a dozen small swords attached to each point. It flew towards Black Star, slightly cutting his stomach, and a tiny trickle of blood dripping from it. He hissed.
"Fine, I'll finish this!" He gripped Tsubaki tighter. "FeyBlade mode!" As the ninja blade turned into a katana, black marks clung to his face. "Go, Tsubaki!" he yelled, and shadows shot towards Reki. She could not flee in time, and was caught, hoisted into the air. Black Star jumped and sliced at Reki's exposed stomach - and hit. She coughed up blood, and dropped her weapons, who transformed back to normal.
"Reki!" Hidzuke screeched, and Tsubaki transformed. Reki fell, and was caught - by Stein. Yasushi hissed, but Stein's glare stopped him completely.
"Black Star." Stein said. Black Star walked over, a grin of accomplishment on his face. The other students followed, curious. Stein turned to him. "Black Star, you went too far over a little cut. Look at where she hit you, then look at her." Black Star looked to where a small rip was in his shirt - there was no more than a tiny scratch on his abdomen. He looked to where he had hit the transfer Meister. It was a deep gash, but bleeding slowly. Blood stained her mouth and chin as well.
"I.. I didn't realize I hit her that hard." He said, his face dropping.
"Kid, Soul," Stein said. "please accompany Hidzuke and Yasushi to the nurse's office, with Re--" He could not finish, or more, could not be heard. Yasushi was was hissing much louder than he could speak. He tackled Black Star to the ground, repeating the words "Hurt Reki! Hurt Reki!" over and over again. He raised his arm, which turned into a sparkling silver blade, and aimed for Black Star's face.
