Chapter 2
"Excuse me, that's impossible I am the last of the Star clan" Black star said
"Well sort of when the Lord Death and crew killed the Star clan, yes you were one year old and they had mercy for you, but my mother saved me by hiding me in a hollow tree, I was about three, then an old lady found me and took me in, she taught me how to farm, and support a family, she treated me as her son"
"Ohh that's nice" Tsubaki smiled
"How did you end up hear then?" asked Black Star
"Oh the old lady passed away, I wanted to travel so I gave the property she left me to a homeless family that the old lady knew they had five kids and thought they would use the property to good use, they said if I needed somewhere I could go back and join them, but I wanted to travel so I left. Then I heard about another Star clan who went to DWMA and I wanted to see for myself"
"Oh so you wanted to see, your awesome relative"
"Cousin, my mom was your father's sister"
"Oh, well it's nice to meet you couz"
"Do you have anywhere to go? I am sure you could sleep on our couch, sorry our house is so small" said Tsubaki
"Oh that would be great, you are too good to me Tsubaki" he stood and kissed her hand, she blushed then giggled. Black Star could feel himself flaming, but forced himself to stay calm
"Okay, I will start dinner" she stood and walked to the kitchen
The two boys sat in awkward silence for a few minutes, before turning on the TV.
The next day Black Star and Tsubaki went to school, they left Moon star at their apartment.
During the first class everyone sat in their seats but just as the class was about to start the door opened, and Moon star walked in.
Black Star sighted 'Damn it not him' he thought as Moon looked up at Tsubaki with a big smile.
But all around people gasped as they notices Moon Star wore his jeans and a tee-shirt that was black. People didn't gasp from what he had but he wore a star tattoo on his right forearm.
"Who are you?" asked Stine
Moon star gave him a piece of paper, Stine read it over then nodded "class this is Moon star our new student, be nice he is Black Star's cousin"
Everyone whispered to the person next to them, Black Star grinded his teeth in annoyance. Soul bent over tapping his shoulder, Black star turned "I will explain later" Black Star whispered Soul just nodded
"Hmm, Moon Star, sit in the empty seat next to Tsubaki since you have probably already met" Stine said ready to start his lesson
Black star spent his whole day, staring at Tsubaki, but not as he normally did, he store at her as she chatted and laughed with Moon Star, or watch as people would go up to Moon star and ask him question or just tried to talk to him. The Damn Moon star was stealing his girl and his spotlight.
Soul on the other hand couldn't help but be entertained by his friends growing jealousy, and temper, but trying to contain his anger knowing if he does something he would be the bad guy. Soul found his friend to be many things but he wasn't stupid, sometimes oblivious but never stupid.
Then the bell rang, and everyone filed out of the classroom. The girls had a hang out planned to the library; Moon star had to see Lord Death about books, and admissions crap. Soul and Kid pulled Black Star back so now they were the only ones in the room. Black Star told his friends about last night, he told them Moon's story and how he acted with Tsubaki everything.
"Wow your jealous" said Kid
"I am not" Black Star cried
"And childish" added Soul, then saw his friends annoyed look "Fine... know what, this Moon character could be a good boost for you"
"Think about it as a race 'who can swoop Tsubaki off her feet first'" said Kid
"Hmm" Black Star though
"Let's go shoot some hoop with Ox, Kilik, and Harvar" said Soul
About an hour later Tsubaki got board at the library and left to go back home. After a while at home she sat on the couch when Moon Star walked in.
"Hello, how was your day?" she smiled, but frowned when she saw his angry face walk up to her
"Cut the bull shit women, stand up" he ordered, frightened she did as told to find herself slapped in the face "I am not a good guy I want to destroy that damn Death Lord, but I can feel they will be watching me for a long time, so you are going to half to do my dirty work"
"What? No I would never betray my school" she said
He laughed "you will do exactly what I say" he held his phone up "In this house, that Death the Kids house and that Mister and scythe pear, all the houses are booby trapped I push any combinations on this phone and one of your friends could drop dead, they could be strangled, scuered, beat and many more but all traps end up killing"
"Fine" Tsubaki cried out "But what about the lady who raised you she would be disappointed in you"
He laughed "Yeah right she was a star clan friend who raised me to kill and raise a new line of Star clan assassins, anyways do you understand what's on the line for any mess up you do?"
"Yes"
"Good, oh and you can't tell any of them of my plan, I have full eyes on you Tsubaki" he grabbed her hair then sniffed it "Even if you slip and someone drops dead, you will have in your gut that it was all your fault" he laughed
"What do you want me to do?" she asked
"You will have a mixture of little tasks, mostly to collect me information I cannot get. Your first mission is go into Stine's home lab and use this hard drive to download everything on Lord Death" he handed her a USB.
"But wouldn't they be their? And. What about Black Star?"
"Oh Stine stays at the school for another hour and Marie has Library duty and wouldn't be home tell the same time, and Black Star he is stupid I will tell him you went shopping or something"
"Fine" she snarled then walked out the apartment
She found herself jumping from building to building "Damn my niceness, I should have known this guy was a scumbag but hopped he was like Black Star... nice and somewhat normal" she jumped some more and chuckled to herself "At least my friends don't know about my really bad potty mouth" then she jumped off a building and walked up to the ugly, scary looking building with stitches, she shivered, she hated the building.
She walked up to the door, she tried to open it and it was locked "Figured" she huffed as she turned her hand into a blade to open the door "Damn kid" she muttered, before it opened and she walked into the creepy house.
She tip toed to the computer, sitting in the seat she turned it on. "Hmm password" she whispered 'if I were Stine what would I put...' she thought "Madness" she typed it in and the computer came fully on. She couldn't help but start to cry, she was betraying everything, and one she loved and everything she believed in.
She found three files called; Boss, Lord Death or Shinigami, and saved them all to the USB stick, but then she heard the door click open. She erased her breath, and held onto the ceiling, and crawling towards the door. Maria passed under her without noticing and walked to the kitchen. Tsubaki sneaked out and ran back home before grabbing a bag a groceries for her alibi.
The next day Tsubaki acted weird she sat at the very top of the class away from the rest of the class. When Stine asked her why she was all the way up there, she replied she was sick and didn't want to give it to anyone and did a fake cough, which her friends could tell. When she wasn't avoiding her friends she was with Moon Star which made Black Star mad.
After school Kid, Liz, Patty, Maka, Soul and Black Star met in the library, Tsubaki left saying she had stuff to do, and Moon Star said he was off to look at an apartment to rent while he was at the DWMA.
"Something's up with Tsubaki" stated Liz
"She has been acting weird today, I think something is bothering her" mopped Maka
"Maybe she is just stressed out" responded Soul
"What if it's me, I haven't said anything to her to make her not be around me, have I?" Black star frowned
"I don't think so, she has been avoiding everyone not just you" said Maka
"Maybe she did something she isn't proud of" piped Patty sitting on the ground drawing with crayons
"Tsubaki doesn't do stuff, she's more of a mother figure she doesn't believe in doing bad stuff" said Soul
Meanwhile at Tsubaki's and Black Star's house, Tsubaki was making muffins when Moon Star came home and walked into the kitchen.
"Did you do the job?" he asked
"Y... Yes" she handed him a folder that sat beside her
He flipped through it "Nice job" he smiled before putting the folder down on the table, then stepped closer to Tsubaki, she flinched, after a moment she found herself pinned, and struggling in the corner, while Moon Star made out with her. "Get off" she tried to push him but didn't work since he was larger, finally she got angry and turned her arm into a blade slicing his abdomen, leaving a 30 centimetre gash, she stopped harassing her, then she kicked him with all her force in the chest, that sent him backwards, into the wall.
"You bitch" he snarled "know what I will let that one go since I have another job for you"
The worried friends continued to talk about Tsubaki in the library untel they realize it was late and went home. When Black Star arrived home his cousin was passed out on the couch snoring, then in there room Tsubaki was fast asleep. Black Star smiled she looked so peace full and cute when sleeping.
The next day Black Star woke up to no Tsubaki in the bed next to him, he got up and walked into the kitchen, he was groggy and still half asleep walking around in his blue boxers and white tank top. On the kitchen table was a note that read:
Dear Black Star and Moon Star
Sorry I couldn't be there to make breakfast, I had to go to the library to finish a project meet you at the school. There are homemade muffins on the counter enjoy
Love Tsubaki
Black Star smirked 'their she goes disappearing again' then Moon Star walked in rubbing his eyes 'and the great day continues' he sarcastically thought to himself That day was pretty much the same as the last. But at lunch Black Star saw Tsubaki and walked up to her.
"Hey Tsubaki how is it going?" he asked
"Oh... um Black Star... I'm fine" she smiled
"Are you okay you seem a little off? And you seem like you want to say something"
"Oh... Yeah. Bl... Black Star I... I" she froze when she saw Moon Star a few meters away holding up a phone and smiling tauntingly
"Yeah. What?" She snapped out of it and turned back to Black Stars worried face
"Oh um never mind it's not important... I have to go" she rushed of before he could stop her, Black Star went to the lunch table, he told them what happened.
After school everyone filled out of the school, this time Tsubaki tried to rush out with everyone to avoid her friends but that was to late when a friendly arm grabbed her. Everyone disappeared leaving her and Maka at the front of the school.
"Tsubaki I want to talk to you" she said
"Oh okay" Tsubaki replied unsure and much rather just run away
"You have been acting weird, you have been avoiding all of us, you randomly go missing"
"Oh it's nothing... just catching up on work"
"What work we almost never get work the last two weeks, Black Star and all of us are worried about you"
"Don't be I'm fine" she said a little louder than usual Soul walked over
"No you aren't what is wrong"
"Nothing's wrong and it's none of your damn business, you wouldn't understand" Maka and Soul froze Tsubaki just yelled, and swore in the same sentence
"I have to go" she turned but was grabbed by Soul lightly "wait" he said She turned angrily "Get off me!" she yelled swinging he right arm and contacting with his face, sending him backwards to the ground bleeding, Maka crouched down to Souls side, and then looked up to her friend with worry and concern. Tsubaki was still, with her hands over her mouth crying she couldn't believe she just did that. She turned "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to" she cried before running off crying.
A few minutes later Soul sat on a bench with a ice back on his eye from the black eye, and blood coming out of his fat lip that he bit as he fell and Maka sitting next to him. Black Star walked out of the school with kid and the girls, and then they laughed at the site of his ugly friend
"What happened to you?" Black Star asked between laughs, while the Thompsons jumped around singing 'shiner, Shiner'.
"Tsubaki" he said which made them shut up almost instantly
"What?" they all yelled stopped instantly
"Tsubaki, got annoyed and bunched me, that chick can punch when angry this hurts more than a Maka-chop surprisingly" Soul said Maka then explained what happened and what Tsubaki said
"it was also weird when Soul grabbed her arm, she looked more terrified than angry"
"It's the innocent one's you half too watch out for" commented kid
"Where is she now?" asked Black Star
"She ran off crying, but I think you should, we all should give her some space, she is going through something that she isn't ready to talk about" Maka said.
Black Star sadly nodded 'what's going on with my weapon' The next five days were to same, Tsubaki avoided everyone she could especially Soul, even though he didn't hold a grudge it made her sad seeing him and being reminded of her bad behaviour. Then she was seen a few times with Moon Star in a corner talking.
The next morning when Black star awoke he saw Tsubaki was still sleeping, he thought if she was still sleeping she was probably tired, she must have been working hard, so he decided to let her sleep for a while longer. About ten minutes later he came back to their room Tsubaki was still sleeping he was tempted to sit by her side and watch her sleep beautifully but remembered they had to go to school and shook he lightly.
"Tsubaki, get up we have to go to school" he whispered She mumbled something quietly not opening her eyes
"What? Sorry could you say that again?"
"I don't feel well, go to school without me" she responded
"Are you sure you don't want me to stay with you?"
"I'll be fine, go ahead... I will just sleep"
"Okay, get better"
"Thanks, black star where id Moon star?" Black Star hated she was asking about him but said
"He left early, said he had an apartment to look at, and said to meet him at school, anyways I should go, bye"
"Bye"
Class was pretty quiet, everyone was told to complete whatever work they had. Stine said he had to do some research on something. But half way through the class two men and Spirit knocked on the door, everyone looked up. The men were large one black and one white; they had padded police vests and helmets on. Spirit look serious, it had to be bad if he was like this.
"We are looking for Tsubaki Nakatsukasa" said the white man, moving his right hand slowly to his gun, and looking around, the class whispered and gasped 'What did Death city police want with an innocent Tsubaki'
"What do you want with my weapon?" Black Star stood up But was ignored when Stine spoke up
"Has it gotten that bad?" then men nodded "Okay let me talk to my students" the men nodded again Stine turned to his students
"Black Star sit down now" he said sternly Black star reluctantly did as told
"Students, over a week ago my computer got hacked into, and very important files were stolen although I did not notice tell a few days later, apparently for the last week the something has happened to about 8 DWMA staff or former staff"
Maka stood angrily "So you think Tsubaki did this?" she was outraged
Spirit spoke up with a serious and stern voice "Maka sit down" Soul pulled at her arm making her sit
"Yes, I am 100 % sure she is the culprit, before anyone says anything just listen" Tsubaki's friends had a mix of anger, hurt, frustration, and 100 questions. Stine cleared his throat
"The culprit was sneaky and quiet like a ninja" he turned on the projector
"I later remembered I had camera's all over my property" He flipped to the first slide; it was a picture of Tsubaki walking onto the property. He flipped to the next, it was Tsubaki with her hand as a blade in the door and she was looking around so to make sure no one walked by and see her. The next was Tsubaki walking through the house. Then a picture of her typing a code into the computer, then the next was Marie waking in the house and Tsubaki hanging off the ceiling so not to get caught.
"This happened 8 more times with other staff"
"How did she know your password?"Asked Kid
"I don't know"
"It's probably something obvious like madness" Black star said, Stine froze and had a guilty face on
"It is" said Liz and she laughed "If black star can figure that out, I'm sure Tsubaki would"
"NO, I won't believe this, Tsubaki wouldn't do this" yelled Black Star standing up
"I agree, she wouldn't do this... willingly" Stine said everyone froze, Stine took that and flipped to the next picture it was Tsubaki sitting at Stine's computer crying
"I think she is being forced"
"That could be why she has been acting weird for the last week" Maka remembered
"That is what she meant that one day when she said 'you we wouldn't understand'" said Soul
"I can't believe someone would force Tsubaki to do something like this she is such an angel" said Moon star
Stine turned to the men "You to go to her house, she is sick today be careful she is smart and strong but also she is timid, she is one of my top five strongest students" then men nodded
"I'm going she is my partner" said Black star
"We are going too" said Maka as her Soul, Kid, Liz, Patty and Moon star also stood
