I do not own Soul Eater or Saigo no GAME. They belong to their respective owners.
I do own… blah blah blah yeah you know…
So I was looking at this after I uploaded it to make sure everything turned out okay and looking at Desmond I thought I spelt it wrong… It just looks so weird to me now…
I'm just barely learning Japanese so if anyone finds any mistakes later on in this and the next few chapters please let me know so I can fix them. =]
FLASHBACK
Desmond, Rain, Black Star, and Tsubaki were standing in Shinigami-sama's room. Shinigami had a 'special assignment' for them.
"In other words, remedial lesion," Black Star whispered to Desmond. She sighed.
"At least we're getting a chance to get souls," she whispered back.
"You four are being sent to Japan. You each have a list of souls to collect and I expect you complete that list. Okay, dismissed. Have fun, be safe, and get souls!" Shinigami-sama told the four.
They left the room and left for their 'trip'.
END FLASHBACK
Black Star, Tsubaki, Desmond, and rain walked through the streets of Tokyo. "So are we going to stay in a hotel or something?" Rain asked.
"Tsubaki smiled. "I actually have family tat lives here so we're going to be staying with them," she said cheerfully. "I've already made the arrangements."
Black Star smiled. "I can't wait to meet your family! Are they all weapons like you?" he asked.
Desmond was kind of amazed to see him take an interest in someone other than himself, but she thought it was to be expected that the only time he did this it was for Tsubaki.
Tsubaki smiled, "Some are. Most of my family is made of normal humans though."
Desmond was only half listening to the rest of their conversation, mostly just incase someone started talking to her. She was mostly looking at the giant signs and skyscrapers. It looks like someone picked up NYC and dropped it in a different dimension, she thought. Japan always intrigued her. While she was still in Nevada after running away she considered running to Japan but when she realized she didn't have much money, she decided on the next best thing. She looked at Rain. I guess its good that I didn't come here instead of New York. I wonder if he could have died if I wasn't there…
The group turned down a street that wasn't nearly as busy as the street they turned off of. As much as Desmond liked cities, se liked quieter places better, so she felt very comfortable being on the side street. Tsubaki turned to the group and asked them to stay where they were for a few seconds, then walked up to an older couple. After speaking to them for a little bit she walked back towards the group. "Doumo Arigato!" she called over her shoulder. Once she got to the group she said, "It's just a little further down the road." Then she smiled reassuringly.
The group stopped in front of an old fashioned Japanese styled house. It was bigger than Desmond expected it to be but was still a quaint place. The landscaping was beautiful, mostly pebbles where grass would have been back in America, bonsai trees and a small pond with a cute little red bridge to cross it. The four walked across the red bridge and walked into the house.
When Tsubaki opened the door a man was standing there to greet the group. "Konnichiwa, baku no namea wa Tatsuya desu," he said. (Hello, my name is Tatsuya.)
Black Star stepped up to him and said, "Konnichiwa, baku no namea wa Black Star desu. Ushi no hou ga saru hori ookii desu." He smiled, proud of what he just said. (Hello, my name is Black Star. Cows are bigger than monkeys.)
…
"Black Star, you just said-" Tsubaki said trying to help.
"I know what I said! I am God after all!" Black Star said putting his hands on his hips laughing.
Tatsuya looked at Black Star and said, "Kare wa kamidesu?" (He's God?)
Tsubaki opened her mouth to answer but Desmond did for her, "Iie."
"Nice," Tsubaki complemented.
"Konnichiwa, baku no namea wa Rain desu."
"Baku no namea wa Desmond desu."
Tsubaki leaned over to Desmond. "Baku is normally used by guys. Most girls use watashi," she explained.
"I know," Desmond said simply.
"Then why-"
"You should know by now Tsubaki, Desmond sees herself as one of the guys," Rain explained.
Tatsuya looked at her. "Why?" he asked to everyone's surprise.
"You can speak English?" Desmond asked with a slight laugh in her voice.
"Yes, most people in Japan can," he explained.
"… Then why did we all just introduce ourselves in Japanese?" she asked to the group. No one had an answer for her, Tsubaki just giggled.
"Please come in," Tatsuya stepped out of the doorway to let the four in.
Each of the four had their own room, and after each had settled into their rooms the house was mostly quiet.
Desmond's room was a lot like her room back in Death City. A bed, a desk, nightstand, dresser, an AC, and a TV. She set her bags down in the center of the room and took out the laptop she had brought with her and placed it on the desk. She sat down in the black swivel chair in front of the desk and turned on her laptop. She signed on to her instant messenger name and immediately got an IM from someone she had never spoke to before.
SymmetricalDeathxo: So how is Japan?
BreakingTheRulz: uhh… wow. Kid?
SymmetricalDeathxo: Yeah. How is Japan?
BreakingTheRulz: good. how did you get my sn?
SymmetricalDeathxo: Maka. She said it would probably be the best way to get in touch with you on your trip. What do you mean wow?
BreakingTheRulz: I mean, I wasn't on for a few seconds and you IMed me. desperate much?
(Just to let you know Desmond doesn't use correct grammar and capitalization when IMing.)
SymmetricalDeathxo: Sorry. Needed an excuse to get away from Liz and Patty for a little so I told them that I was going to talk to you and Liz walked into my room when you signed on.
BreakingTheRulz: ah.
SymmetricalDeathxo: Yeah.
Rain walked into Desmond's room while knocking on the door. "Hey I'm going to go for a walk. Do you wanna come?" he asked.
Desmond paused. "What does it mean when a guy IMs the second you sign on?" she asked staring at her computer screen.
Rain looked at her. "He probably likes you. Why? Who just IMed you?"
Desmond tilted her head towards the door, "What is this? Questions only?"
…
The two laughed.
"Do you wanna come?"
"Not quite yet. Maybe tomorrow or something."
"Okay." Rain left and closed the door behind him.
Desmond leaned back in her chair and looked at the conversation on the computer screen in front of her and sighed. "Well, now. I guess that raises a few more questions now doesn't it?" she said aloud.
Tsubaki walked out of her room with a few things the same time Rain walked out of his with his things. "Oh, sorry Rain. I was just going to go walk around and sight see a little," she said as she took a step to walk away. Then she turned towards him, "Would you like to come?"
"Sure, I was just about to go walk around Tokyo myself. It would be more fun to go with someone," he said.
"What about Desmond?" Tsubaki asked walking down the hall with the other weapon.
"She isn't in the mood. We'll probably see her roaming the streets later by herself just looking around," Rain chuckled at the mental image of the small girl walking around, mouth opened and wide-eyed. Tsubaki pictured it also and laughed.
Desmond sat in her room staring at the conversation until Black Star burst into her room. "Desmond! Tsubaki and Rain just left together! Do you think something's going on?" he screamed.
"No," Desmond said simply and quickly.
Black Star stopped being Black Star for a second. "Why not?" he asked.
"Because I know who rain likes and I know who Tsubaki likes. Trust me, it's not each other," Desmond said to keep any unnecessary questions from being asked.
"Oh… do you wanna go walk around and introduce Tokyo to my godliness?" Black Star asked, his tone flatter than it normally is while talking about himself.
Desmond laughed slightly at the change in Black Star then sighed. "Sure," she said putting on a pair of shoes. "I'll be right out."
Black Star nodded and left her room.
Liz walked out of Kid's room after seeing that he didn't just make up an excuse. As she closed the door Kid sighed out of relief when his computer binged, regaining his attention.
BreakingTheRulz: see ya around kiddo =p
Kid began to type a response and hit send.
BreakingTheRulz has signed off.
Your message has not been delivered
SymmetricalDeathxo: See you, love =p
Desmond walked out of her room and her and Black Star left the house onto the streets of Tokyo.
Tsuki o kono te ni nigirishimete
