Authors Note: This is my first POV of Laurence! I start to show his side for things. Tell me how I do!
Laurence's POV
I had this strange dream, it's as if someone is calling to me. "Help me! Mizu please!" I always tried to grab her hand but was never successful. I got up and washed my face. Hearing the twins already up and about I give them a stern order before they walked down the hall. "Don't even think about going into her room." With a reply of "aw man, you got to ruin anything!" From Kiba, and from Tsume a chuckle. "Oh you realized did you?" Still I had more things on my mind right now. Taking a shower, I still couldn't believe what I said to my partner, only a day after she found out her parents are dead and that her brother is most likely as well. I hear come out of her kitchen? I quickly get dressed into my uniform for school a basic Black T-shirt and Jeans and walk out amazed at what I saw on the table.
A whole entire banquet for my family and I! Bacon, eggs, pancakes, even freaking Coffee! I couldn't help but say. "Wow…." I never had a home-cooked meal and to be honest, I kind of liked the smell of it that's an understatement I loved it! Daichi turned around her short brown hair shining with a red sheen in the sunlight coming from the window and her Chestnut eyes filled with energy. I blushed, wait why am I blushing? She was still cooking and had an apron on with her usual black jeans and red T-shirt. "So what do you think?" I then replied quickly. "It's fantastic!" Other gasps of astonishment came from Kasa, his purple eyes wide with disbelief. I heard Kasa say with Awe. "You did this?" My god he sounded like a fanboy. She nodded and said. "Is it not enough?" We both shook our heads and for the first time ever we agreed. Which P.S kind of scared me, "No you- this is great!" She sighed in relief. I was looking at the food and she said. "Well dig in!" I did and boy was it good! Whoever will marry her is a lucky man! She is so prêt- what am I saying? The twins said, "wow Hime! Your cooking is like hevan!" Hime really, why do they have to call her princess? I then got up and said, "H- I mean Sakura we have to go." Daichi nodded and said on the way out. "You can call me Daichi you know." I nodded and we headed off.
"Today class we are going to learn about Soul Resonance." I saw Daichi pull out her notebook and started to write down the lesson. That dream was so weird. Yet the voice was so familiar. I glance at her and she is so into the lesson she doesn't notice. I smiled, she was probably the best partner for me. I then was shaken from my thoughts as she said. "Hey creeper, are you listening to the story at all?" I sighed, uh oh I am, in for it now. "Sorry, I didn't hear a thing." She sighed and she said. "I can tell. Here." She pulled out a notebook and handed it to me. "Write down the lesson stupid." Yeap she was the best partner for me, she made me focus. At the end of the lesson for the day, I wondered what we should do. Only to see her reviewing her lessons, "Hey Bookworm, aren't you going to leave for lunch?" She shook her head. "No, I am going to study. We can really use this to help us with our assignments." I sat down and said. "Well I'll stay here to then." She smiled at me, what a gorg- what am I saying! Ugh, she is my partner just my partner!
After the studying, we both took a look at the assignments. Only to see Black*Star coming up to us. He said, "so how's it going Daichi?" She knew him? How, why I dunno I just looked at them as they talked. Daichi replied. "It's going well; we collected our first Kishin Soul!" "Congrats, Daichi!" I then smiled in embarrassment as he looked at me and said. "Is this your partner?" Daichi nodded. "Yeap, he's a great one at that!" Black*Star then said, "you guys are good but Tsubaki and I are the best!" She nodded in agreement as did I.
Once he left I asked, "Daichi how do you know them?" She turned and looked at me. "Black*Star and I are good friends, he use to stay at my house after what happened to his clan." I then heard a hiss. "Students at DWMA!" Everybody turned and I ran outside with Daichi close behind, who is that guy? His long black cloak covered his body while his mask covered his face. Daichi growled, "Darcia!" Darica then said. "I am here to collect someone of importance to me." He then looked at us, no Daichi! I got in front as he jumped down, the teachers were soul threaded to the ground, even my brother who was hopelessly trying to break free. I too was Soul threaded, Daichi is on her own. I struggled and I tried to break free. Daichi screamed as she was grabbed. Suddenly slash separated the two of them. A man wearing a mask wearing a medieval tux had saved her! The hat he was wearing which was semi-medieval. Had covered the top of his blue hair, Daichi had looked at him as he looked at Darica and held out a sword. Darica had jumped back before the slash could hit him and he said. "Interesting, I will be back." He disappeared in the shadows and she then got up and looked at him as he held out a blue rose. She blushed heavily. I felt a pain in my heart as the soul threads disappeared Kasa was already out and he then waited until the mysterious man disappeared. Kasa and I ran up to her, I was so worried.
She was shaking, still holding the blue rose. Kasa then said. "Are you okay?" She nodded and I tried to comfort her I then saw Death. "I need to talk to you three, it is of great importance." I already had a feeling I know what he would be talking about.
