Shinigami-sama

"Oiiiiiiii….Wake up missy." A voice called out as they poked the girls face.

"mmm…Wha?" The girl opened her eyes slightly realizing something she got up quickly "Where am I!? Who are you!?" She looked around confused wondering herself she couldn't remember who she was anymore. Only one word browsed through her mind.

"Nao…."

"TO!" The male said cheerfully "Your name is NAOTO, N-A-O-T-O."

"N-Naoto?"

"yup! Everybody in the organization gets their name change…oops I shouldn't have told you that, I'm Maru by the way." He grinned at her happily.

"…..Maru…." she looked at him. He was tall and masculine, his hair was a pretty autumn red it was a bit messy. His eyes were chocolate brown and were very happy. She blinked a few times as she turned away and looked at the bed sheets with no expression.

"Naoto-chan? Whats wro-" He felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up to see a tall black haired man whose bangs slightly covered his eyes. His eyes were a bright green and slanted sharply to show a mean look. Smoke arose around the room,. He was a smoker too, one side had a ripped off sleeve to show only a tattoo, A cross tattoo. Now that I think about it…Naoto looked over at Maru and notice a cross tattoo in the upper right corner of his face.

"Don't push it too much Maru, She's new so it can't be helped that she doesn't understand. So all you do is tell her the truth." He looked over at Naoto "Oi, listen up you." He pushed Maru out of the way and scooted a chair besides the bed.

"I'm Toya, you got that little missy." He looked at her with determined eyes not letting her reply to him. "You want to know why you're here? Well I'll tell you even if the truth hurts. Your parents were on the deathbed and wanted to still live. There souls were already to old so it wasn't worth selling it to us. So they sold us your soul to pay for the price. Now then onto you little missy. Your real name is Nao. But now your Naoto so lets erase that." He smacked her forehead once. She blinked a few times.

"What's your name missy."

"N-Naoto…."

"Okay then that worked. We erased all your memories of being human, you are now a Shinigami. As you can see a Shinigami has a cross tattoo. The mark is wherever is the most strongest part of a humans soul. Yours is in your pupil. You have very unique eyes you know. Pure black hair but blood red eyes, great combo." he spun his hands in a circular motion and a mirror appeared out of nowhere showing her reflection. Her eyes widened, her right pupil was that of a cross in it. The mirror disappeared. "There you see, you are now a Shinigami, lets test out your abilities." He picked up Naoto and walked out of the room. Maru followed after

"H-Hey!" she said with a flustered face as she squirmed to get down

"She's getting her personality now, isn't that great boss, she's a quick learner!"

Naoto said nothing "….hey….Toya was it…What was your real name."

Toya quickly stopped her set the small girl down "I thought I erased your memories of that."

"No, Since you guys kept calling me Naoto I just figured that was my name."

Impossible every Shinigami in here shouldn't remember their names, unless something nostalgic happened to them. He looked at her.

"Just saying that since you change peoples name when they are sold. You changed mine to Naoto which is a boys name and yours is Toya which is a girls name."

Maru grinned "Naoto-chan is really smart, right Toy-" He got interrupted by Toya as he kicked him out of his way.

"You're a nosy girl you know that missy."

"Nosy? I was just speaking the truth."

"hmmmp, whatever. Time to see what you can do." His cig started to burn and scattered away into ashes. He placed his hand over the tattoo on his arm "I am the wielder of death; Toya. In order to perform exorcism give me the death gods pupil;Kira." He gripped his hand into a fist and the tattoo suddenly disappeared a handle of some sort of weapon came out from where the tattoo was. He swiftly swung his hand away and a weapon came out, a large scythe that deeply resembled the grim reapers. He really was a Shinigami….

"…M-Matte!" She said quickly "I don't have anything to use!"

"That's the point we need to know if your trash or not."

A chuckle was heard from behind. Maru grinned "You have no heart for cute girls Toya-chan" he made fun of his name only to have a fireball thrown at him

"Lets begin." He darted to the girl the scythe in his hand. She stood there motionless, he was too fast, all of a sudden he was right in front of her the scythe was swung very quickly to her neck

"Stop!" She yelled as she closed her eyes and placed her hand in a defense position as if someone was trying to kick her. She blinked a few times since she felt nothing had happened. Was she dead already? What happened. She turned to look and saw a transparent golden shield that was bent due to the scythe. "E-Eh?"

Toya looked at her "Kotodama." He quickly turned over to Maru "Maru, She's a kotodama user just like you."

Maru eyes narrowed as he stood up "Really, then lets see who's is stronger. Stay still."

Naoto felt like she couldn't move This is what Kotodama is?

Maru walked over to her and cupped her chin to make her face up to him "Freeze." She felt a cold breeze and saw ice forming around.

I get it now kotodama is the use of words. Her eyes suddenly blanked out into a cold doll like expression "stop the ice and melt it with blazing fire."

"heh you get it now? But that won't work you're a rookie kotodama user and long details won't wo-" he got interrupted as a blaze of fire shot beneath them melting the ice. He darted backwards away from Naoto "Impossible."

Naoto raised her hand a few centimeters away from the fire "Disperse" The flames disappeared. She looked at the blank spot confused at what had happened she had no idea what had happened. She felt herself being lifted "WHAAAA!" she looked down and saw Toya picking her up and setting her on his shoulders. "Amazing, Welcome to SOUL, Naoto-san." he said as he started to walk with her still on his shoulders. She looked at Maru. He grinned and waved to her. Just as they were out of sight he kicked the chair over his eyes menacing "That bitch"

Naoto said nothing as the man walked around the area. "Um…What exactly is SO- ACK!" she yelled as her face got rammed into the top of the door way.

Toya set her down "Crap! I'm sorry." he took out a napkin and dabbed her red noise he chuckled a bit "haha, you look like Rudolf!"

Naoto looked at him "How rude!" she said angrily

Toya looked around "ah, Now then lets go look for a stupid human that is stupid enough to sell his soul to you."

"Soul?"

"YUUUUUP"

"…..But…I just got here…"

"Don't think I'll go easy on you just because you're a rookie little missy."

"….can you please stop calling me little…"

"hmmm…but your WAAAAAYYYY shorter than me."

"How rude!"

"Anyways…." he placed his left hand and wrapped in around Naoto's waist "Lets go!" he said as a black pit appeared under them and they fell in.

"W-Where are we going!!??" she yelled as they fell in a never ending hole

He laughed as he lit a cig "Ah…where are we going!?" he chuckled obviously making fun of the young girl.

Naoto frowned "How rude! Listen to be me you teme!!"

Toya looked at her "Teme?Pfft. Then you're a brat, missy."

Naoto glared at him

"…….anyways, we are almost near so…" his left hand reached for the side of her waist as the whole disappeared and they where in the deep blue sky.

Naoto looked around "W-Where are we? Why do I have these tiny wings that are different!?"

Toya shook his head "man…We are at Lightning high." he pointed to the not so shabby high school with not much students, won a lot of sports games, has random fags, terrorist attacks, and supernatural happenings. "Okay then come on..."
