Hello, people who are reading this. I would like for you all to review because I haven't gotten one review. Please review.
"O-ok, I have the l-l-list of names f-f-for you," Crona said interrupting an everlasting silence. They had been on the train for five hours now and they were all getting bored. Maka and Soul were just starting to fall asleep but snapped awake at that info.
"Really?! That's great! Let's hear them!" Maka said in her happy voice.
"W-well, they may not be the b-b-best," Crona said.
"I'm sure they will be fine," Maka said.
"O-ok," he said then started reading them off. "Emily... Carla... Madison... Kenika... Zenaku... Chris-"
"Wait! What was that last one?" the new girl asked.
"Z-Zenaku?" Crona asked.
Zenaku. That was the name she heard from her dream! Maybe it was a flash of the future. It was scary but maybe she could change it. I mean, it never finished anyway. "T-that one. I-I like it," she said.
"Zenaku, huh?" Soul said then looked up in thought. "Doesn't that mean evil in Japanese?" he asked looking at Crona, who started shaking.
"I-I uh, h-had a flashback... o-of my m-m-mother... and I w-wrote down what was g-going through m-m-my head," Crona said hiding his face behind his pink bangs. Flashbacks of his mom kept coming in his head ever since he woke up from the hospital. He still thought he saw her at times but realized it was all in his head.
Maka scooted over to him and wrapped her arms around the scared boy. "It's ok. She's dead for good. Don't worry," she soothed whiling running her hand through his hair, causing the boy to blush a little. Crona still had some feelings for her but ever since he met the other girl, Zenaku, he started to change his mind. It was strange that she picked that name, because she didn't seem like the evil type. Then again, Crona was pretty evil back before Maka had shown up, so maybe it was the same for her.
"S-so, this academy, what's it like?" Zenaku spoke up.
"Oh, it's just a school where weapons and meisters gather together to kill 99 kishin souls and 1 witch soul to become a death scythe. It's pretty cool actually," Soul said as he leaned against the back of the seat with his arms crossed behind his head.
"99 huh?" Zenaku asked. "W-what if you kill more than 99?"
"They all get convescated and you'd have to start over," he answered.
"Well, then I'd have to start over. I've collected 508," she said causing them all to give her shocked expressions. "What?"
"508?!" Maka asked surprisingly. She had stopped comforting Crona now. Zenaku just nodded shyly. "It took us a long time to even catch 10!"
"Well, I've been collecting them ever since I started living on the streets," Zenaku said remembering that aweful day.
Crona noticed her sadness and shyly scooted to her and wrapped his arms around her body in a comforting way, causing them all to look shocked again.
Crona rarely touched anyone he barely knew, and here he is hugging a girl. They stayed like that for a few more seconds before Crona layed his head on her shoulder.
'The train will be arriving at Death City in five minutes. Please get your stuff ready to go,' the intercome said. Zenaku had woken and felt something soft rubbing against her cheek. She looked down and realized she had fallen asleep on Crona's head. His arms were still wrapped around her and she could hear his light breathing, indicating that he had also fallen asleep. He looked so peaceful that she would hate to wake him up. She shifted her gaze to Maka and Soul and saw them asleep also, but just waking. She sighed and looked back at Crona then lifted her head off his, but was careful not to move too much so he wouldn't fall off her shoulder and have a rude awakening. She looked at him one last time before whispering to him.
"Crona, um, it's time to wake up," she said with a hint of blush. The pinkette slowly fluttered his eyes open and lifted his head off her shoulder then stretched his arms out with a heavy yawn.
"Did you have any nightmares while you slept this time?" he asked with his eyes still half open.
"No, I actually slept peacefully last night," Zenaku replied with a smile. They were completely unaware of the two across from them smirking at them.
"Really? That's good. What did you dream about?" he asked her yawning again.
Zenaku blushed as she remembered the dream. She couldn't believe she dreamed about it herself. "Um... well, I can't really remember," she lied to him while giving him an embarrassed smile, hoping he wouldn't see through the lie. Thankfully he didn't. He just nodded with a small smile.
"Yeah, the good ones are always the ones you forget," he stated, then noticed Maka and Soul smirking. "W-what?" he asked, stutterness returning.
"Oh, nothing," Maka said while looking up but still had the same smirk.
"It's just the only person you won't stutter around is Maka," Soul said.
"I think he's right!" Ragnarok said coming out of Crona. "You won't stutter around anyone unless you have feelings for them! And you won't talk to anyone unless spoken to directly! Ha ha! This is great!"
Crona felt heat rising to his cheeks. "R-Ragnarok! I told you not to mention that!"
Maka's smirk disappeared and she looked at Crona shockingly with blush rising to her cheeks. "Y-you have feelings for me?!" Maka asked. Now who's the one stuttering?
"What?! No! Well, not like that! I like you as a close friend! And... I don't know how to deal with this!" Crona said burrying his face in his hand in embarrassment.
"Stop being such a pussy, Crona! You knew she would find out sooner or later!" Ragnarok yelled.
Mikel then came out of Zenaku and sat down next to her with an irritated expression on her face. "Well, I for one think we should change the topic. You're embarrassing the poor kid," she said.
Ragnarok glared at her. "And I thought you were cool! You're just another idiot that enter my li-"
Mikel cut him off by chopping his head with her hand, knocking him out and forcing him to sink back into Crona. "That's better."
"We need to g-get our stuff r-ready. We're almost t-there," Zenaku said.
So they all got everything together then exited the train when it stopped.
Zenaku stood behind the wall of the classroom she had to go to. Maka had boughten her some clothes for the Academy. It dealt with a red short-sleeved shirt, with a white collar and a cartoony skull on the collar, a black skirt that went halfway to her knees, white leggings, and black flats. She was too shy to enter the classroom and stand in front of many faces she had never seen before. 'But I have to be strong' she thought then slowly and shakily opened the door and walked in.
Rows and rows of people's eyes staring down at her were around the room. She paled at the sight of it and regretted walking in. Then a guy with stitches across his face, with a white lab coat, with stitch designs in it, and glasses, sitting in a chair rolled beside her. Then she noticed something extremely wrong with him. 'He has a screw in his head!'
"Good to see you finally made it," he spoke to her. "We thought you wouldn't show up today. Class, this is our newest classmate. She goes by Zenaku. Her last name is unknown though, due to her not wanting to remember her mother. So, no one ask what her last name is," he said excused her to go sit in a seat of her choice.
She didn't realize that Crona, Maka, and Soul were all in the same class as her until she saw Maka wave for her to go in that direction. It made her feel a little more relaxed. She made her way up to the row they were in and sat in a seat by Crona. She couldn't help but notice five more kids aitting in that row. One was a boy with blue hair, another was a girl with long black hair put up in a ponytail, then there was a girl with short blonde hair, a girl with dirty blonde hair, and a boy with black hair with three stripes that were only on the left side.
She noticed Crona taking notes on a dissection the teacher was doing on a... cow? Who dissects a cow?! She sighed and took out a spiral to take notes on also.
Zenaku was walking to lunch with Crona, Maka, and Soul. Soul and Maka were having a conversation about their homework. Soul didn't look to interested in it. Then the five kids she saw earlier came to join their little group.
"Yo! Soul!" the boy with blue hair yelled happily, getting the white haied boy's attention.
"Hey, what's up Black Star?" Soul asked with a smile on his face. They locked hands together.
"Oh, you know, showing off my glory and awesomeness!" the kid, Black Star, said.
Then the boy with black hair and three stripes came up to me with a smile. "And you must be Zenaku. Maka told me about you," he said causing the purple haired girl to blush slightly. It wasn't a love kind of blush, but a nervous kind. "By the way, I'm Death the Kid, son of Lord Death," he introduced. He couldn't help but notice she was perfectly symmetrical. "This is Liz, and this is Patty," he said gesturing to the two blondes.
"Helloooo!" the girl, Patty said happily. She had a strange blush that always stayed on her face.
"Hey," the other one said casually.
"I'm Tsubaki. It's nice to meet you," the girl with the black ponytail said with a cute smile.
Maka had been glaring at Black Star. "Hey, idiot! Say hello to the new girl," she said with an irritation vein.
"Huh? Oh! I'm sorry! I didn't see you there through my awesomeness!" Black Star said. "I'm Black Star! And you shall remember my name because I will be the one to surpass God! HAHAHA!"
"Uhhhhh..." Zenaku had no idea how to respond to that.
Please review! I really need it!
