There's a New Student a DWMA? Ch.3
Sorry for the delay. School tied me down, but since it's summer, I'm free. Mind you, I am working on a Potterlock fanfic and a Star Trek one as well, so I may not update as frequently.
Kirk: Evil doesn't own Soul Eater or Sherlok.
Me: Italicized and bolded with ~~ are Sherlock's thoughts and the plain italicized with ** is his conscience
Maka slipped into Sid's classroom and handed him her excuse and sat down. After she took her seat, a waded up piece of paper hither in the head. She opened it and read it. She shook he head slightly and got to work, mind still reeling at the information she gathered. After school they met up and Tsubaki asked the one question that was on everyone's minds. "What did you find out?" Maka explained her findings and her growing concern. "You heard what Professor Stein said. If this doesn't get healed soon, his soul will turn into a keshin egg and we'll be forced.." she trails off, trying to swallow the lump in her throat, "…to kill him." Kid finished. It was silent until Black Star spoke up. "What should we do about it? If it's incurable, why bother?" he asked. The next thing he knew, he was on the ground with a book indention on the back of his head. "You know? Things aren't always about you. Anyway I said there is no cures as of now, so what I think we have to do is keep him company and support him to keep the urges at bay until they find a cure." She said."Maka. That may be true, but who knows how long it will take to find a cure? It may take years and we can only hold off the urges for so long." Kid said. "So until then let's do all we can now!" Patty said cheerfully. "Patty has a point. There is no point worrying about the future when the present is still here."Liz agreed. After they agreed, they decided to head to the park and play basketball.
John and Sherlock woke up a few hours later and John climbed out of bed and headed to the bathroom. "You need some fresh air and there is a park nearby. Oh, and you are NOT wearing your coat and scarf."he said, popping his head back into the groaned and climbed out of bed and got dressed in silence. He pulls on a pair of black skinny jeans and a Union Jack T-shirt and slipped on his blue battered converse. John steps out wearing a buttoned up shirt and a pair of jeans with his red converse. "Let's go." He said, opening the window and grabbing their satchels. He climbs out on the sturdiest branch and Sherlock follows him, closing the window behind them. They carefully make their way down the tree and head to the park in comfortable reach the park and stops when they spot Maka and the gang playing basketball. John wants to join, but he is still shy and Sherlock is silent. Patty sees them and runs to them. "Hiya! We're playing a game of basketball. Want to join?" she asked. John agrees and Sherlock looks as if he wants to say yes, but he hears a *'They don't want a freak like you playing. They're trying to take advantage of you Sherly. Say no Sherly. Do it or I'll make you hurt John.'* Sherlock looks at Patty and John, who was looking worriedly at him. 'I'm sorry Miss Patty, but I'm afraid I must decline. Sports have never been my thing. You go off and have fun John." he said, heading to the bench. John looked at him once more before heading to the court with Patty, apprehension filling him.
Sherlock sits on the bench and watches with vague interest as he pulls out a book on Physiology. He is reading when he starts feeling dizzy. ~'Leave me alone'~ he thinks angrily. *'But why Sherly? We are the best of friends. Look at John. He's slowly abandoning you,just like your parents did.'* The voice mocked. ~'That's not true. My parents died fighting. The didn't abandon me.'~ He thinks warily,letting his defenses fall down. 'Join me Sherly. I'll take care of you.' Sherlock wobbles for a moment and his eyes close, not even feeling his body hit the ground. He opens his eyes and he's in a hallway and sees a door open and a silhouette of a person standing in the door. *'Come to me Sherly.'* Sherlock feels himself walking as if he's under a spell to the figure. As his arms wrap around the figure, it smiles and leads him through the door, closing it in the process. John was occasionally watching Sherlock and noticed his wobbling. 'Oh no. Oh nonononononono' he thinks, dropping the ball as he sees Sherlock topple off the bench. He runs to him and cradles his head after checking for injuries, tears leaking out. "Sherlock? Lockie?Answer me please. SHERLOCK! DON'T GO! HE'S ONLY LURING YOU IN! SHERLOCK! WALK AWAY! DON'T GO TO HIM!" John screamed in near hysterics. The game forgotten, everyone runs to John. "Oh my goodness! Is he…." Tsubaki trailed off. John looked at her. "He's still alive if that's what you're wondering."
He turns his head back to his unresponsive meister. "What were you going on about with the 'not going towards him'?" Soul asked. John was silent before he began. "As with all neglected children, they find solace in their own minds as it is their only way of finding peace. Usually their minds manifest another human being formed from their own conscience. Whenever the child is feeling alone, he or she shuts down and goes to the figure to find comfort and they fall into a comatose like sleep. Although it may lead them from the pain, if it goes on for too long, they may never wake up. With Sherlock however, he has been called all sorts of awful names and taunted and his conscience, whenever it's not being 'comforting', uses it against him, making him feel more alone than he already is. " John is only silence as they absorb the new information ."Should we move him?" Liz asked. "That would not be wise. Any sudden movements and he can wake up instantly, completely consumed by the black blood and will use anything and everything to hurt us,thinking that we are taking him away from his 'support'. He would not be himself and it's a risk I do not want to take." He said. "So what should we do?" Soul asked. John only sighed. "All we can do is wait.'
I hope this was all to your liking. As always, reviews are welcomed. Any and all flames will be Vulcan nerved pinched and sent to Delta Vega with no Selek(Spock Prime) and a handsome Scottish engineer.
