Back at her apartment, Sasha was freaking out. Had she really just kissed Death the Kid!? "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! He's so going to hate me now!" She sat on her bed and hugged her pillow. What was she thinking? Sure, she thought Kid was cute, and funny, and she had seen that he was an awesome fighter… but did she have to kiss him!? Usually a person said how they felt about somebody before they went and kissed them. Besides, weren't guys supposed to make the first move?

"What's the use?" she asked herself. "He probably just thinks I'm a wierdo now and will never want to talk to me again." Sasha flopped onto her bed and stared at the ceiling. She only had to wallow in… whatever she was feeling… until school started up again. Then she could see what Kid would do.

Her thoughts were interrupted by somebody knocking on the door to her apartment. She got up and answered it. "Oh, hey Maka."

"Hi Sasha. I was asked by Lord Death to bring you to the academy for a few minutes. He thinks he found a weapon partner for you."

"Okay. Just give me a few minutes." Sasha said. She grabbed her jacket and shoes and followed Maka out of the apartment, remembering to lock the door as well. She and Maka walked back to the DWMA and went to the Death Room. As expected, Lord Death was there, along with two boys.

"Sasha, it's so nice to see you. I'm so glad you could come in. Now, I understand you still don't have a weapon partner, is that right?" Sasha nodded. "Well, I happen to have two weapons here who don't have a meister. This is Hisoka and Tama Kinoshita." Lord Death gestured to the two boys standing beside him. They were identical twins with short black hair and dark blue, almond shaped eyes. One twin wore a tight dark green shirt, dark pants and black combat boots. The other wore a pale orange tank top over a darker blue one, khaki shorts, and orange high tops. They each had matching red bandanas in their hair and a black leather jacket slung over their shoulders.

"Hello," said the one in the dark green shirt as he shook Sasha's hand. "My name is Hisoka." Sasha smiled warmly. The other twin came up and did the same thing.

"My name is Tama. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

"It's nice to meet the both of you. So, what's your weapon form?" The twins both got a sort of gleam in their eyes. They took a step back and transformed into a pair of katanas. Sasha reached out and grabbed one sword in each hand. "Wow," she breathed in amazement.

"So what do you think?" Tama's voice emanated from the blade in her left hand.

"This is really cool." She gave the blades a couple of swings. They felt so light in her hands. She let them go so they could transform back. Lord Death clapped his hands together.

"Splendid! Then from this day forward you three shall be partners here at the DWMA. Now, go on and enjoy the rest of your weekend." Sasha, Tama, Hisoka, and Maka all left the school. As they were walking down the street Maka branched off so she could go back to her own place. Sasha turned to her new partners.

"Where do you guys live?"

Hisoka shrugged. "Anywhere we want, really. We tend to travel a lot, so we don't really have permanent residence anywhere in Death City." Sasha showed them the way back to her place. She lived by herself, and the apartment was pretty small, but it did have an extra bedroom. There was a set of bunk beds in there, left behind by the previous owner. The twins were, surprisingly, fine with the arrangement. Tama instantly called the top bunk and climbed onto it.

"I'll let you guys get settled for a moment while I start dinner. Is there anything you guys prefer?" Hisoka and Tama shook their heads and Sasha went to the kitchen to make dinner. The twins seemed nice enough, and she or Lord Death couldn't see any wavelength incompatibility. It looked like the partnership would work out. 'And now I have twin weapons just like Kid!' she thought to herself. Then she paused… where did that thought come from? And why did she care about being like Kid? Sasha shook her head and cleared the thought. She finished dinner and called the twins into the dining room. As they ate they took a little more time to get to know each other. Hisoka was clearly the more mature of the two, while Tama was more mischievous and fun-loving. Hisoka enjoyed reading and playing soccer, and Tama liked playing guitar and cooking. "How long have you guys been attending the academy?"

"Not long," Tama said through a mouth full of food. "We started classes sometime last week, but you're actually our first meister."

"Really?"

"Yeah," Hisoka said. "None of the other new kids were compatible with both of our wavelengths. But we didn't want to separate, so we just waited around for Lord Death to find somebody for us."

"Well I hope we work really well together," Sasha said. The boys nodded in agreement. Sasha cleared the dinner dishes and went about her regular routine, leaving the boys to do the same. It was kind of weird for Sasha to have to live with somebody else, especially two boys. But they seemed like they wouldn't be bad roommates. Later on she said goodnight to Hisoka and Tama and went into her bedroom. She snuggled beneath the covers and fell asleep easily.

Back in the living room, Hisoka and Tama sat on the couch. "I like her." Tama said. Hisoka nodded in agreement.

"I just hope she can take care of herself in battle." Hisoka said.

"Of course she will. She'll have us on her side, remember?" Tama gave his brother a playful punch on the arm, and then stood up, stretched and headed to bed. Hisoka soon followed his brother. He wished he could have more confidence in their new partner like Tama did. Judging on first impressions, she seemed too nice and sweet to be capable of hunting kishin. Oh well, at least now they had a partner. Maybe his first impression of Sasha would be wrong.
