Aviva's POV

I wake up the next morning to find myself sore from the fight yesterday. It turned out different than expected.

~(•.•)~ (Flashies) ~(•.•)~

"Alright you're both ready, right?" Stein asks. "Hai!(Yes!)" Fawn and I yell and Kid, Liz, and Patty nod.

"Alright, 3, 2, 1... Go" I hold my arm out as Fawn transforms into my weapon, a pitchfork. "Liz, Patty!" Kid yells. "Hai!" The say then then into guns. Kid aims at me and starts shooting. I don't even have to use Fawn to block. I just jump around to dodge them. Then once it seems his turns over I try and go and hit him with Fawn. But he jumps around like I do. He hits me with one of his guns and I get launched back a little, but I'm still standing. "Well, I think we should get this over with quick and easy." Kid says. "Liz, Patty." He says, then his weapons turn into guns on his arm.

"1.8%" is all I could hear from Liz. Then after a few second I hear a countdown. "5...4...3...2...1" Liz says. "Ready to fire." Patty says. Kid gets up from kneeling then points his guns at me. "Death Cannon."

I smirk.

"How cute." I mutter.

At the moment Fawn and I knew what to do once he fired, his cannons lit up, then I yelled, "Steel Shield!" And it seemed like the blast didn't even come.

Fawn turns back into my weapon. Them when the smoke clears up, I'm still standing.

"Not possible." Kid says. I laugh and a huge grin appears on my face. "My turn." I say. "Soul Empathy!" I yell as mine and Fawn's souls connect and she turns into the best weapon any meister could have.

"Octagon of Death!(An octagon of pitchforks)" It may not seem like much. But this does a hella lot of damage to someone. I start spinning Fawn above me like she was the blade of a helicopter. "Boomerang!" I yell as I throw Fawn, she hits Kid right in the stomach and then she comes back to me, like a boomerang. "A-Ahh.." Kid gasps as he falls to the grounds. I'm still worried about how hard I hit him with my attack. Even though he's Shiganami, well I am too. If I got hit by that I would be down for a while too.

"Kid!" Liz and Patty yell as they go back to human form. "He'll be alright." Stein says. "Just give him a little." He says, then looks at me. "Good job." He says, I nod saying thank you as Fawn turns back into a human.

~(•.•)~(Flashies are done)~(•.•)~

I groan as I get out of my bed and walk down to Kid's room, I see Spirit in the kitchen but since I'm tired I don't think much of it. "Heya... Spirrrrit." I yawn. I then knock on Kid's door, he doesn't say anything so I walk in. And there he lay sprawled out on his bed. "Oh geez Kid." I say. I look around him room and everything was a mess. I couldn't believe it for someone that has to have everything symmetrical, his room is trashed. "Kid your rooms asymmetrical!" I say, he jumps up and looks around. "AHH!" He screams. I sigh and walk out.

Now since I was awake, I forgot about Spirit being there. "Umm, Aviva?" I grab a nearby pencil and throw it. "Oh Spirit!" I look and see the pencil landed right next to his head. "Sorry!" He had to scaredest look on his face. So I had to laugh just a little at least. I walk over to Spirit and ask, "So what brings you here today trespasser?" I smirk. "Oh I'm not trespassing, I have permission from Death." He says. "Oh fine whatever. So whatcha want?" I ask taking a seat.

"So I ask you to let me finish before you react okay?" He asks. "Okay?" I say. He sighs and starts.

"So, I've talked to Death about this and everything. I just wanted to make sure it was okay with you first. But, I want to adopt you." He says, he wanted to finish so I wait, trying not to explode with questions. "Death and I were talking and he said it was okay with him since he isn't going to be around all the time. He said that I could adopt you if it was okay with you, and that I would tell you that you can come back and visit any time. Well it technically still is your home, because it's where you grew up." Spirit sighs. "But ever since you met me you've wanted me to be your dad." He laughs. "You were so silly." He looks at me and I know he's done.

My face turns red because I know how stupid I was back then. Plus how scared I was, I shouldn't have been scared when I came face-to-face with my dad. Even though I was without Fawn I still should've been strong.

But he scares me.

He's who gives me fear.

Maybe it would be better just to try and move on. Just try to start a new with Spirit, just pretend he's my father, and replace all the bad memories with good ones.

But what if I get too upset and Spirit will take the place of my father in my mind, then I'll be scared of Spirit. And I don't want to do that, I've known Spirit for a long time and he means to much for my mind to do that to me.

"I-I don't know." I say. My face burries into my knees, that I brought up to my chest. "Can you give me until the end of the school day?" I feel a tear fall onto my knee. I'm fighting with myself. "Please?" I ask, not looking up. "Sure, yeah. Take all the time you need." He says. "I'm gonna make head down to the DWMA. I'll leave you to think." He says. I hear him get up and leave.

Not too long after I feel a hand on my back. I look up at Kid. "Kid.." I cry. "I don't know what to do." I grab onto him and pull him in for a hug. "I've known Spirit for such a long time and I think he's nice. I-It's just..." I trail off.

"Your mind, you're afraid of it." He says. "I know what you're thinking, you're scared of your mind. You think it's going to play tricks on you." He says. "If you really wanted to live around Spirit, I'd overcome the fear first." He says. "But I'm fine with any decision you make. As long as we see each other." He says, we stay connected in a hug until we realize we will need to get to school.

School seemed to go by in a flash. It scared me too-

No, stop it

I can't be scared. I think I've made my mind up. But I'm scared to say it-

Stop!

My gosh I'm fighting with myself so much today. I really need to go see Stein about this. It's bothering me so much now.

I slowly walk down to the doors of the Death Room. I see Maka along the way, she waves to me but I give her a look back. She knows what the look says, but doesn't know what it means.

I knock eight times because I know Kid's in there. He was awaiting my response too. The doors open but I don't move.

I take a deep breath then walk in. I hear the doors slam behind me as I close my eyes and sigh.

Here we go.

I walk down the hall and count everyone up,

Uncle, Kid, Spirit, Fawn

I smile, perfect, everyone's here. Now to just get everyone into place. Then I hope Spirit will agree.

"Ahh.. Hello Aviva, have you made your decision?" Uncle asks. I nod. "But, I need to do something." I say. I walk forward and grab Fawns hand. She looks at me and I give her a grin, she returns with another grin.

I take Fawn to a place just a few steps away from where she was standing. I grab Kid's hands and take him over to where Fawn is. Then I do the same with uncle. Then I take Spirit who seems very confused and put him up by the mirror.

I look down and sigh. Then look back at Fawn, "Fawn." I say, she nods and does what she's supposed to do. She creates a shield around Kid and uncle. "W-What?!" I hear Kid yell. I know they won't do anything because it's Fawn, they don't want to hurt Fawn. And they won't.

"What was that for?" Spirit points, getting scared. "Spirit..." I mumble. "I know this may be weird. But to trust you, I need to do something." I say. I hold out my hand. He grabs it. I feel his soul wavelength, "Okay, please turn into a weapon."

"AVIVA ARE YOU CRAZY HIS SOUL WAVELENGTH IS NO WHERE NEAR YOURS!" I hear Kid. "Kid just let her do what she has to do." Fawn says. "Fawn how are you with her on this! She can lose part of her soul if she's not careful enough! Father aren't you going to do something?... Father?"

"Aviva are you sure?" Spirit asks. "I'm sure." I say. "Please turn into a weapon." I say. Then I feel him turn into a weapon. I grab onto him with both hands, my hands sting at first, but then I relax.

"Hey! You matched my wavelength!" Spirit laughs. I put him on my shoulder and start walking. "Wait, what are you doing?" He asks. "Please stay in weapon form." I say. He sort of listens when he pops out of his weapon self and looks around. "Aviva don't tell me you're..." He says. "Please trust me.. This way I can trust you." He knows what I'm doing.

I open the door, revealing my father on the ground. "Oh well if it isn't little Avi and Spirit. He chuckles. I look at Spirit and he goes back into his weapon form. I release him from his chains. "Ahh... Thanks sweets," he rubs his wrists. "Now I can beat this girl and cross." He smiles. "Spirit." I say, since I've matched his wavelength he knows what to do. "Alright," he turns into his scythe form.

"Ha, I can still beat you." He makes his arms turn into knifes. Yeah, I may've forgot to mention he is a weapon. "Here we go" I say

Well, to summarize most of the fight, it was one person would hit and the other would block. It got pretty boring after a while.

"That's it!" My dad turns his arms into swords. "AHH!" He runs at me, I use Spirit to block, but I can say my fathers hits are very powerful. "Spirit!" I yell. I could tell he was getting hurt. "Don't worry about me just keep fighting!" He yells.

I scream and kick my father in the chest which sends him back a little. He has to take a break to catch his breath. Perfect timing.

I run at the door I open it and throw Spirit out. "Thank you." I say to him before I throw him. "Wait, Aviva!" I know what he's doing, yet other people do too. I smirk at my father.

"I'm not scared anymore." I chuckle,

"I'm not even afraid to die."

Spirit's POV

I transform mid air, I land on my feet and one hand, my other hand on my chest to catch my breath as I hear a slam of the door. I look up and start running at the door. But Fawn beats me to it.

"Sorry." She says as she transforms into a shield protecting the door. She makes the shield glare so I can see her. "Fawn what are you doing?!" I yell. "I don't want you to get hurt." She says. "Hurt what do you-?"

Then there was screaming. Aviva's high pitch scream. My eyes go wide as Fawn looks like she's bracing herself, which she is. But what for?

Then, I know. I think the whole Academy knows now. A huge explosion happens behind Fawn's shield. Fawn mumbles something and then looks back up to us, she has blood coming off of her forehead.

"P-Papa?" My head snaps to see Maka at the entrance. "Maka! When did you get here?" I ask. Looking between her and the door. Fawn still hasn't put down her shield.

While turning back to Maka I see Kid's expression. He was about to rage, or cry. One of the other. Death just had no expression.

We all hear footsteps as Stein enters the room. "Alright Fawn take the shield down." Stein says. Walking towards the door. Fawn follows his order and turns back into human. The door was complete ashes.

Stein stops beside me. "Come out here you little insane-o" Stein says. I look at him then back at the door. A shadow forming in the smoke.

"Well that used a lot more power than I thought it would!"

Oh don't ever scare me like that again.

"Avi!" Kid runs and hugs her.

"Not afraid of dying, nice." Stein says. "What?" I ask. "She was overcoming a fear, fear of dying. Even though that was just one." Stein says.

Aviva laughs, she closes her eyes, and I hadn't noticed her eyes had changed until they went back to the yellow color they have been.

She looks up at me and smiles, "Yes."
