Chapter 2: One Witch's soul
Dai stands next to Ren, with his hands in the pockets of his pants and the hood from his jacket over his head. He seemed to glance up from his hood, towards the Death God himself.
Ren stood with her hands behind her back, as she would say "Well Shinigami-sama, what can Team Blackout help you with?"
"Hmmm…Well, you two only have the one witch soul left, right? He says with a concerned sound in his voice
"Well, yeah Shinigami-sama, isn't that great!" Ren smiles as she answered the question.
"Yeah it is Ren, but that also means that we have to step up our game…" Dai seem to say out of no where.
"He's right Ren. You have to take this situation carefully now, because no one of your age has ever become a 'death scythe'. Some tried and failed, not just failed. They lost their souls and lives, in trying to obtain this power." The Shinigami's voice seemed more serious than usual, as he continued to talk. "Fighting a witch is no joke; you have to take every step more carful than the last and you must fight with everything you got."
Dai and Ren gazed over towards each other, seeing how this conversation was really starting to get serious. Ren being concerned started to realize they could lose their lives in the process. The setting of the area around them seemed to get quieter, with the conversation deepen. For Ren and Dai, it started to feel more and more difficult to talk about the soon to be battle, with a most powerful witch.
"I think we both understand our combination of circumstances at the given time and the consequences behind our actions, right Ren?" Dai said this strongly and confident, with no hesitation in his words. He just wondered if Ren could handle this, as much as he could.
"Completely understood Shinigami-sama, it's crystal clear. Because if Dai were trouble, I would give my life for him, as I know he would do for me. That's just how we are, Team Blackout!" Ren smiles towards them, despite the fact she knows that, if it can down to it, she would have no idea what to do in a pinch like that.
"That's the spirit Ren. I love to see that in a woman!" The Shinigami said with a chuckle in his voice.
"Aww…Shinigami-sama. You're making me blush…" a slight red mark was seen upon her pale face, which seemed cute to others.
Black Star and a couple others made their way into the chambers. Maka, Soul, and Tsubaki entered the chambers, with question marks above their heads.
"Like I told you before, no one will stand out more than the almighty GOD…BLACK STAR!!" he says with a lot of spunk and loudness in his tone.
Dai and Ren gazed around as everyone started to surround them. The setting's seriousness seemed to be at peace when everyone entered the room, considering how calm and relax everyone was.
"Are we done here, Grim Reaper-sama?" Dai said impatiently, trying to wait for the conversation to be over, so he could go on with his day."
"Shinigami-sama, we as students attending this school, have the right to know what's going on here." Maka said, as she flashed a smile, when her eyes glanced up towards the Death GOD.
"Well, you all do have the…" as he was about to finish his statement, Maka's father the 'death scythe' rushed into the room.
"MAKA! PLEASE COME BACK TO ME!! DADDY LOVES YOU!!" he yells, running towards Maka.
"…" When her father reached where she was standing, Maka extended her arm and made a fist. Her father's head connected with her fist as he ran into it. "I sure as hell don't love you…"
All of them laughed a bit, as they seem to see somewhat of a comedy show, between daughter and father. The Death GOD finished talking to everyone and they all walked out of the chambers, as the conversation seemed to be cut short.
THE NEXT DAY
Ren walks out of the kitchen into Dai's bedroom, she smiles as she glances over his lifeless body. She stands with an apron and mitts on, with one hand on her hip. Part of her left cheek is covered in pancake mix, when she then yells…
"Hey, Dai-kun!! Its time to get up! Wakey, wakey, eggs, and bacey" she yells towards him, which seem to not even make him budge.
"Huh…what?" he opens his eyes and rubs his head, as he sees the really loud girl at 6:45am. "Ren…do you have any clue what time it is?" he complains to her.
"Yup, I sure do. It's time for you to get you butt out of bed, and come eat breakfast." She looks to him, and then flashes a big smile.
Ren was always the one to do things like this. She cooked breakfast every morning, and even made time for herself (considering girls take really long just to get dressed). This is the reason some people question; why she's so pretty if it seems she has no time for herself anymore. But of course, Ren didn't really mind, because she thinks of Dai as a husband more than a partner. She likes to help others sometimes before she helps herself.
Dai gets up and moved towards the bathroom, he opens the door as steam pours out of the room. Ren peeked her head in Dai's room, to get a glance at him, while he's wet from getting out of the shower. Dai dried his body with a towel and smirked to himself…
"Can I help you Ren…?" he said with a deepen voice
"Uhhh…no…u'hm" she falls to the ground as she was now caught by him. "Well, I was just…yeah." Ren picks herself up from the ground and started to walk away. "See ya at breakfast!" She rubbed her left cheek to get the mix off her face, as she walked away.
A smile is seen on Dai's face as Ren walks away. He closed the door and gets dressed for the day, Dai opens the door and walks to the table. He pulls his hood down as his black and blue, tinted hair is seen in the sunlight.
Both Ren and Dai sit down at the table and have breakfast. Dai finishes and Ren just gets down after him.
"Dai…Do you think we can really beat a which?" her blue eyes seems to glance towards his, as she knew what his answer would be.
"Well, it depends on how we work together as a Team…Our souls need to be in sync at all times, when facing a witch…" Dai's voice seemed to be more enthusiastic than usual as he talked, him sensing that today, might be the day… "I'm sure we can do this Ren, I have faith in us both…"
Ren's eyes started to sparkle in the sunlight as she heard his words, which he will most likely never say again.
Dai and Ren walked out of the home and started there way to school. The time there waling was quiet; it seemed they weren't in a talkative mood. Ren opens her mouth and says…
"Dai-kun?" she questioned his name
"Hmm?" he seem to look up at her
"I just wanted to say…" she glanced away looking up at the blue sky
DING DONG, DING DONG
