Hey everyone! Sorry I couldn't post the new chapter as soon, I had a ton load of homework to do. :/ Well anyways I hope you enjoy the second chapter! Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN SOUL EATER
Chapter 2-
The Aggressive, Yet Stubborn one-
A New Student Enrolls to the DWMA?
"Hmm I see. Well, I have heard of some reports from time to time near Death City about some burglaries here and there." mentioned Lord Death. By now, they were all in the death room with the girl lying on the floor still unconscious. "So what can we do with her?" asked Soul. Lord Death rubbed his chin with his large hand. "Hmm, well for now all we can do is put her in one of the cells down below. It would be considered as a punishment for her crimes. I'll have to think about whether I should let her go, or have her in justice in some way." "Let her go? What about all the thievery she's committed?" kid protested.
"You are right about that kid, but unless anything valuable or anyone harmed or stolen, it is under city laws that we do nothing more than that since those crimes were never a real bother, or a serious case. Now," said Lord Death. "I suggest you go take her down to a cell before she wakes up, and causes more trouble around here, understood?" all the students nodded and spoke in unison, "Yes Lord Death." Soul picked up the thief again, and walked away with the others. Maka started to follow behind, but stopped herself. She turned back to Lord Death. "Lord Death, may I have a word with you?" she asked. Lord Death held out a peace sign. "Of course you can Maka! Chow you guys!" he waved to the others. Soul turned to maka. Maka gave him an assuring look, notifying him that she wouldn't be long, he nodded and left.
Soul, Tsubaki, Kid, Black Star, Liz and Patty walked out the room and entered the halls. They walked in silence until someone came and ran up to the crew. The boy held his right arm with his left shyly. "I-I'm back from make up class." Crona said.
"Where's Maka?"
"She went to talk to Lord Death about something." Soul answered blankly. It only took Crona a few moments to realize that Soul was carrying someone that wasn't awake. Crona yelped and backed away, "I-is she still a-alive!?" "Of course she is, she's just unconscious." Crona stared at the sleeping girl. "W-hat happened to her?" he asked. Soul was about to tell Crona about their little chase, when Maka opened the door and came out. "Okay I'm back. Thanks for waiting you guys. Oh Crona! You're back from classes with Ms. Marie?" Maka asked. Crona's attention turned to Maka. "Y-yeah...she let me out a little early today.." Maka smiled.
"That's great! Look, I know our whole early afternoon was busted by this little girl, but we still have the late afternoon to do things! We just have to put the girl in one of the cells downstairs and Sid will be keeping an eye on her in the mean time." "Sounds good to me." Soul said. "It's never too late for anything." kid said with a smile. "Alright! Let's go have some fun!" Liz chimed. "Yahoo! I guess this low life human didn't ruin our hang out after all!" Black Star yelled spitting in everyones' face. Patty just laughed and Tsubaki sweat dropped at Black Star's remark. Maka brought Sid over and explained to him about everything, while walking down the stairs with the others. They soon found an empty cell, and Soul gently placed the girl on the bed spread. After that, they gave their goodbyes to Sid and exited to the outside front of the academy.
"So now that that's over with, what are we going to do?" Liz asked Maka.
"Hmm well, I was thinking we could just go somewhere to eat around the down parts of Death City." Maka said.
Tsubaki gave an awkward smile, "Yeah, I am pretty hungry..." "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse" Liz groaned. They all started down the steps. "So what should we eat then?" Kid asked. "Well," Maka paused. "Hmm..oh, why don't we go eat some ramen?" "Sounds awesome!" Black Star cheered. "Sure why not." Soul said. "Okay" Liz added. Patty bounced in excitement. "yayyyy I like ramen!" Liz laughed, "You like a lot of things Patty." "Yeah I guess you're right about that Sis."
The orange sunlight rays from a window hit the girl's eyes, causing them to flutter open. The thief gained consciousness and found herself staring at a ceiling. She became fully awake and sat up vibrantly, as she held the back of her head feeling a shot of pain, that pain caused by the earlier incident. She looked around to find herself on a bedspread, in a dull room with only a window and a door. "Damn it, am I in jail?" the girl mumbled under her breath. "Well at least I'm not sharing a cell with some bozo."
"So you finally woke up." the girl looked towards the door waiting for more to be said. "Who are you?" she asked. "The name is Sid. Back when I was alive I knew as a man that it was best to give some good advice. Stealing doesn't suit your style kid." was alive? Da hell is that suppose to mean? the thief only shrugged. "Yeah yeah yeah, I've been told that a million times already. So what am I gonna do, community service or what? You can't keep me in this jail cell forever guy." Sid was confused.
"Jail cell?"
"Yeah. You know, where you keep bad guys like me away." Sid leaned against the wall on the other side of the door. "Well this isn't particularly a prison, just somewhere where we keep people in like you temporarily. We're actually beneath the academy right now. Lord Death said he would make his final decision by the end of this day." the thief showed an annoyed look on her face. "Eh? Wait so you're telling me that, that girl took me to your academy?" "I think that girl you are talking about is referring to Maka. And yes she did bring you didn't know what other way could fit you." "What!? So she took me to her stupid school!? I'd rather be in jail than here!" the thief enraged. Sid only sighed and rubbed the back of his head. "What, you hate school that much?" the girl scoffed. "Hell yeah, more than anything in the world. Can someone please kill me now?" Sid ignored her last quote of sarcasm, and asked her, "So, where'd you come from?" The girl stopped yelling and fell silent.
"I'm not telling you. And if you're thinking about asking anymore questions like that, then guess what? I'm not gonna say a word. You can just screw off and leave me be in this cell."
she continued, "And who knows, maybe I'll end up in jail for all we know." "My orders were to supervise you. I can't leave you alone, or else who knows what else you'll do next." That's right bastard. I can do more shit than you think. "And so I'm going to be here a while so I'll need to know at least one thing about you kid." the thief frustrated and cursed at herself. Damn, I don't want to get annoyed by this dumb ass. Just one thing huh? Fine.
"My name."
Sid stared at the cellar door. The girl repeated herself. "My name. That's all I'm gonna tell you. You only said one thing so dont assume that I'm going to tell you anymore. Got it?" "Okay, it's a deal. So, tell me your name. What is it?" Sid asked. The thief looked down at the ground hesitating.
"It's Shonaku. Shonaku Miwasaki."
The sun was setting and the sky turned rosy pink along with the puffy clouds. Maka and the others finally reached a ramen soup restaurant, and went inside to sit on some stools. The place wasn't very large, just the small kitchen with a mini glass barrier to separate the customers and the cooks, with stools in one row together, but the restaurant itself was nicely decorated with Chinese lanterns, streamers, and bright lights.
They all looked at the menu above to see what they had, then a woman with black hair tied in a bun, wearing an apron came up to greet them with a welcome. "Why good evening, how may I help you all?" Maka gave a polite smile, "We'll just have water for the moment please." she said kindly. The woman nodded and left. Maka glanced up at the menu board. Hmm..I think I'll just have the regular ramen soup with beef. I really hope Lord Death makes his decision soon, she really needs my help. I know he'll say yes. Maka thought.
Crona's P.O.V
I wasn't really hungry-I had some lunch earlier-but I didnt want to tell Maka that, it would make her sad. She's helped me so much. I just wish that I could repay her in some way for all the care she's given me. I still wonder how she enrolled me back in the academy, and convinced Ms. Marie not to retire, but become a tutoring teacher. The woman came back with water for all of us, taking our orders after. I just decided to get some regular ramen with rice on the side. I thought about ways about how Maka had done so many favors that I didn't even ask for, and how to repay her, but I couldn't find anything. What if one day, Maka asked me for a favor and I couldn't do it? Would she still want to be my friend? Why can't I just forget about all of this for once? Questioning my thoughts? It's- wait. Great, I'm doing it again. This is all going to get up in my head and it's going to create problems if I keep thinking about it too much. I can't let that happen. I never realized how long I was thinking in my head being aloof from the others, until the lady came with our ramen. I saw that everyone had gone into a conversation of their own with each other, while I had talked to myself. I wanted to just forget the whole think and come back to it later. Just eat without thought. I stared down at my ramen, steam coming off of it.
Narrator's P.O.V
The sky turned a violet purple and the moon laughed, white teeth showing with blood oozing out of its mouth. "Huhhh, how much fucking longer am I going to be here? I'm sooo bored." Shonaku whined. It had been four hours since she was captured and put in the cell, stuck with Sid who wanted to know more about Shonaku, but didn't want to get her starting up again. "You know you have a liking in using curse words in almost every sentence." Sid said. "Okay and? I grew up that way, I learn words, I say 'em." Shonaku replied. Sid couldn't take it. He had never met anyone with foul words, and wanted to know why Lord Death bothered to keep her. He was out by the door for hours, not leaving the girl alone for one bit.
"Shonaku." Shonaku looked up to the door. "What do you want." She said in a flat tone.
"Why do you steal? Is it for your own entertainment?" Shonaku only scoffed. Sid wondered how her face looked like along with that scoff. "You're probably thinking that I'm stealing crappy luxuries. Well I'm not. Only food cause I need it...for survival."
Gave that away. Damn once I get to see that Maka chick again I'm gonna make sure that she regrets putting me in this stupid learning academy. Wait- why wait? I can just blast that door open! Why didn't I think of that before? I can just kill her now! "For survival? Does that mean that you don't have a ho-" Sid was interrupted by the door coming off and hitting the wall. The girl immediately ran out and to down the halls. "Hey! Come back here, you can't leave!" Sid yelled running after her. Shonaku stopped and turned around. "Is that really all you can say? I'm getting revenge on the bitch and you aren't going to stop me got that? It was nice talking to you though." she said the last quote with sarcasm. Before Sid could even get to her, Shonaku blasted the ceiling with her right arm, and chunks of the ceiling came tumbling down. The rubble blocked Sid entirely from getting shonaku. It was no use, he didn't have Nygus with him. Shonaku laughed and turned around, but arms wrapped around her. "Hey! Let me go you ass!" "Calm down. Even if you tried, you can't leave. Now come with me to my classroom and stay put in there." a man said. She kept struggling and looked up to find a man with a screw in his head, with glasses and stitches on his face. "What kind of fucking place is this!? First that guy who kept me down here was blue, and now you've got a fucking screw on your head!?" Professor Stein only carried her up the stairs and into his classroom. He put her down and went to go sit at his desk. "Now take a seat and stay there." Shonaku looked at him shocked. "So what? Are you really going to trust me in staying put and not leaving? Cause hell I know that this isn't a cell." Stein looked up at her. "I know you want to see the girl who brought you here. You can sit here and wait until she comes back. Go sit and don't bother me in my reading." Shonaku opened her mouth but no words came out. Defeated by only a small command she sat down, with a stubborn look. She waited quietly for Maka to come back, and Professor Stein read in silence while taking notes.
The whole gang talked altogether while they left the small restaurant giving the lady there a thank you. Everyone laughed an joked, not a thing they worried about as if the whole earlier incident had never happened. That was except for Crona. He still wondered how he could repay Maka- the thought still troubling him throughout the entire time. He was glad that everyone was enjoying their time, but their voices would interrupt his train of thoughts. So Crona decided that he would separate from them and walk alone for a bit. "Maka, I'm just going to go take a stroll around for a little while. if you don't mind." Maka turned to him with a smile. "Huh? Oh okay Crona, don't be home late though." Crona gave a small smile back. "Y-yeah okay." He walked another way as the others continued enjoying themselves.
They all arrived back at the DWMA, and everyone said their goodnights and left. Maka and Soul stayed.
"Are you sure maka?" Soul asked Maka as they walked up the stairs. "Yeah, I just want to see how that girl is doing. You can stay here at the front, I won't be long." "Alright. But if you don't come back soon, then I'll go in there. Just incase- she might still want to attack." "Don't worry I can handle it!" Maka said as she entered the DWMA. She walked inside to find the halls deserted. Maka whistled as she looked around, on her way to the cells, when Ms. Marie came up to her. "Oh hello Maka." she said. "Oh good evening Ms. Marie! Leaving home?" Ms. Marie smiled. "Yes actually! But I wanted to tell you that Stein said for you to go up to his classroom. He says that he has someone waiting for you?" "Oh yeah, I think I might know who that is. Thank you for telling me Ms. Marie! I hope you have a goodnight!" Maka said politely. Ms. Marie walked past Maka. "Youre welcome! Same to you Maka!" after she left Maka started her way to class Cresent Moon. Maka was now in front of the door. She wanted to go in, but something stopped her. She had a strange feeling all of a sudden, a kind of tension coming from the other side. Maka stared at the door, beginning to have second thoughts about going inside. Now she only wanted to turn back home, but she opened the door anyways, having no idea of what would be awaiting her on that other side of the door.
