"Hai!" I left.
I walked home, a cold breeze starting up, which made my legs and arms cold. "C-Cold...! Damn!" I sneezed. "Great! I hope I don't have a cold! Minsi'll hate taking care of me!" I sneezed again.
"G-Great...!" I coughed, looking around. "I'm lost and sick!" I sighed.
I whined to myself, finding myself in Shibusen's park. "How'd I get here?! I was near the cabarat club!" I sighed again and walked out of the park. All of a sudden, I felt a pre-kishin's soul. "Great, maybe it'll warm me up!" I looked around and I heard branches creak then the glint of claws as it jumped at me.
I smirked, and, grabbing a sharp branch, procedeed to whack it over the head, making it back away. "Girly..." It said. "I want that unique soul of yours!" In the street light's light, I saw it- it was a man- about 29- with long sharp nails. He cackled- I felt chills run up and down my back- and jumped at me again, swinging those claws at me. One claw scratched my cheek, and he licked the blood off. "Sweet with a side of danger, interesting..." He laughed, jumping at me, and pinned me down.
"Get-get off!" I said when he put his claws to my neck.
"Get off of Simone!" Minsi's voice sounded close- really close. The kishin's blood splattered me and I got up. "Are you okay, Simone?" He looked at me. "Always the one to attract danger." He shook his head in mock disapproval. "Ow!!" I'd just kicked him and stormed away.
"Always one to attract am I? Baka!" I ran home, wiping my eyes, and slammed the door to my room. "Baka!" I flopped down on my bed. I heard the front door open and close.
"Simone?" I didn't answer, only locking my door. "Oh, come on, Simone, I was kidding. Jeez... so sensitive." I flopped down on my bed, and I scratched my cat ears.
I stopped and I looked at my nails. They looked like the kishin's who attacked me. I gasped.
'Because of your unique ability you have yet to unlock...' I remembered what my mother said.
"Is this... is this my ability? To take the physical aspects of a kishin egg, like its claws, or weapon, and make it mine..?" The claws shrunk and my nails looked normal. "Oooh, I hope that Noah guy doesn't find out..."
"Noah-sama." Her long, dirty blond hair covered her green eyes as she bowed to the man who was half-hidden in the shadows.
"Crystal. Has your child discovered her ability?"
"Yes, she has, just now."
"Good. Justin?" The blue-eyed, blond-haired priest-like teen looked at the man. "Go and retrieve her. She'll be an important tool at helping us."
"Okay." The priest-like teen left, Giriko looking after him. "I'll be okay, Giriko-san."
"I-I don't care for your well-being!" Justin laughed lightly and left.
A man with black hair and purple eyes like Simone's stood in the shadows under her and Minsi's apartment. Justin approached him.
"So, Jura, your back?" The man cast a furious purple-eyed glare at the blue-eyed boy. "Is that a challenge? I would rather not fight you."
"I know I wouldn't escape unjuried, Justin Law. To hell with you if you think I'm going to let you hurt her."
"Still protecting your daughter?" Justin said. "That can be viewed as a sign of weakness...or strength."
"Damn right it is." Jura smirked. "Still have those earphones. Changed the design though, I see. Kishin eyes. So you went the path of a kishin?"
"Not a kishin. I just respect someone stronger than Death. The Kishin Asura."
"That'd make you a traitor. That would also make you wanted. That's why all the Death Scythe's- including me- are after you."
"My, my. So many, Yumi Azusa, Marie MjölnirDeath Scythe (aka Spirit), Soul Eater Evans, even Tezca Tlipoca, it'll be hard to escape them." The priest-like teen laughed lightly. "I can evade them." A light in Simone's apartment flickered on and both weapons looked up. "Ah, its time for me to go." He produced a piece of paper and disappeared into it.
"Another time, Justin..." Jura murmured, dissolving into the shadows of an alleyway.
"Ne, Minsi," I said, looking at my weapon. "Are you seriously telling me that you didn't hear anything last night? How come I did?"
"Maybe your crazy?" He rubbed his arm where I'd previously punched him. "Ow! Anyway," He said, rubbing his arm still- maybe I'd punched him too hard? "Why're ya gettin' all dressed up for? Going on a date or something?"
"Yeah, with Death the Kid, is there a problem?" I asked, catching his mutters. "I can hear you, you know. Having these cat ears helps!"
"Yeah, I don't like that guy. Kinda dresses boring. Black and white- that your type?" He said with slight venom in his tone. I punched him again. "Stop doing that!"
"Then shut up!" I took a deep breath, and fixed my knee-high black skirt and my white shirt with a skull on it- Shinigami-sama's skull that is. I opened the door, and paused. "I'm not the only one going on a date, ne, Minsi. You've had your eyes on Liz-chan, and you've finally worked up the nerve to ask her out- lucky she said yes." I smirked at his expression and left. I'd taken one earring out of my right ear and put it in my left ear. I've heard Kid has OCD over symmetry. I giggled as I reached the place he said he'd meet me- the basketball courts. Black Star, Soul, Maka, Tsubaki, and Patti were there.
"To surpass God, I've got to win this game!!" Star shouted, making the ball. Patti high-fived him, leaving him shocked when she kissed him swiftly, giggling as usual.
"P-Patti?" The blue-haired boy stuttered, quickly shut up by another kiss. Tsubaki smiled and sat down on a bench. Soul and Maka smiled and, thinking no one noticed, held hands. I noticed but Tsubaki didn't. Liz and Kid came. Kid had khaki shorts and a polo shirt on- much different from his usual outfit. Liz had a light blue skirt and a lilac shirt on.
"Hi, Kid," I said, smiling shyly at the the shinigami. "Are you ready?"
"Yes, you look pretty. At least it isn't all asymmetrical." Me and Kid left as Minsi came, wearing a light gray polo and shorts. Thus began Kid and mine date.
A/N- Yes~ Patti x Black Star~ oooh, and Simone's dad comes back, and he seems to know Justin~
