'Where the hell am I?' Was the first thought that Lolika had after regaining Consciousness. Her whole body ached. She moved each one of her limbs, to check if any of them were broken. Finding her body to be intact, she slowly opened her eyes. A white ceiling came into view. She shifted her eyes left, then right, before confirming that she was in the school's infirmary. A clock on the far wall told her it was late night. Slowly sitting up, she clutched her head as a headache started to come on. Finding painkillers on her nightstand, she quickly swallowed them dry. Turning the bottle over in her hands, her eyes caught the word morphine,
"Shit," Lolika muttered before her mind became foggy, she passed out once again.
Opening her eyes again, Lolika now knew where she was. It was bright outside, she heard the chatter if students. Blah, school. Standing up on wobbly legs, Lolika hobbled over to the bathroom, in search of a mirror. Breathing on it she dialed the number 42-42-564.
"Why hello , how are you feeling?" Lord Death's cheery voice came from the other side of the mirror. Lolika cleared her throat.
"Um, we'll I was wondering if you knew what happened, and stuff."
Lolika said lamely.
"Yes, Kid has informed me of everything, and well frankly, I'm confused." Shinigami-sama informed her.
"About what?"
"Well, when Tsubaki came to me the other day, and told me about the fight, it did end up the way she explained it, yes?"
"Well, what did she say?" Lolika questioned.
"That it ended with you in a bloody mess."
Lolika motioned to her bandaged body. "It sure did!" She said in a fake cheery tone.
"Well I can obviously see that, but what I want to know is how and why?"
"Well just because I can't control what my body is doing in that state, I can only control what happens to it in this state. If I wasn't getting hurt, my light would see no reason to burn out, so I didn't guard myself, and when any one of myself's here that tune," Lord death nodded, he knew what she was talking about, he had his own little music box, if he needed to stop her. "I, as you know will come back to this state, and that's exactly what happened." Lord Death thought for a moment,
"Yes ok, and what caused you to convert to that state?"
"Um, I was really pissed of and sad and PMS-y so yeah." She said awkwardly, not wanting to tell Lord Death that the reason all this happened was his son.
"Ah, I see, your staying in the dorms right?" Lord Death. Lolika nodded her head. "Well go get some rest then." He said shooing her away, Lolika walked back into her infirmary room to gather her clothes, which had been swapped for a hospital gown while she was unconscious.
"Oh, and Lolika?" Lord death's voice came from the bathroom once again. Poking her head back in, she looked at lord death who was still in the mirror,
"Yes?" She asked,
"Thanks for not killing kid." He said before disappearing. Shrugging, Lolika just began her walk to the dorms, all she wanted to do was sleep.
It was about 8:00 when she jammed the key into the locked door of her dorm.
"SURPRISE!" Someone yelled from inside, causing her to jump.
Peeking her head around the door, Lolika discovered that her someone was in fact, 8 someones. Maka, Soul, Crona, Tsubaki, Black Star, Liz, Patty, and Death the Kid all sat in her living room.
"What?" Was the only thing that Lolika could say. 'Way to sound intelligent,' she mentally scolded herself.
"YOUR BACK FROM THE DEAD!" Lolika was fly-tackled by Black Star. The two fell down, in a heap of limbs. Lolika groaned as her still throbbing head hit the ground. She sat up, shoving the heavy boy of off her.
"Thanks a lot dumbass." Lolika said sarcastically. Black Star gave a cheeky grin in response.
"It's nice to see your feeling better." A gentle voice came from above. Lolika looked up to see Tsubaki leaning over the two, holding out a hand, Lolika took pulling herself up.
"Would you like me to cook you something? You've been out for 8 days, and haven't eaten a thing." Tsubaki offered.
"I'm fine." Lolika said, giving a polite pass.
"Pffffft." Everyone looked over at Black Star, who was holding in a laugh. "Come in Tsubaki, you know Lolika won't eat that, this is what she really wants." He said holding up a pop-tart. Everyone looked over at Lolika who had her eyes glued on the pastry, she reached her arms out,
"Gimme." Everyone sweat-dropped. She was interesting alright.
"Only if you introduce yourself and be social." Black Star said. Lolika's eyes darted to her small dorm kitchen.
"We confiscated those," Tsubaki informed her. Her eyes now wandered to her room.
"Those are gone too." Black Star told her. Grumbling to herself, Lolika snagged the pop tarts and stalked into her living room, obviously annoyed with the whole situation. To no surprise she seated herself between Black Star and Tsubaki. After a couple minutes of silence, Tsubaki nudged her, eyes screaming to say something. Lolika sighed,
"My name is Lolika Lights, I'm the same age as you, ummm, I'm assuming you already know my backstory," half the room shook there head no. "Well, erm, I am the first Shinigami as well as living intelligent organism, my Parents were what was left over from creating the universe, today what is know as Madness, insanity, so basically a Kishin, and the other all that is clear, that's where weapon blood comes from. You have all heard of me before, under the name of Mother Nature. Because of my origin, I can bend the rules of life itself, I want it to rain? Poof poof." She did a little rain dance with her fingers. I want a pet unicorn? Boom boom." The room remained quiet.
Maka was the first to speak.
"How would 'bend the rules of life' to make a unicorn?" She questioned with immense curiosity
"Well I find a mommy horse and a daddy horse that are very much in love, and when the mommy horse has a baby in her tummy, lil ol' Lolika goes in and rearranges the baby horses atomic structure and structure of the body and our pops sparky the unicorn." She said with sarcastic enthusiasm. Soul was skeptical about Lolika.
"How do witches and immortals like free exist? And Blair, how does a cat get magic?" He asked.
"It all matters on your blood, witches blood is mixed with different proportions then say weapon blood. Free, he has too much of what's called Vita blood, Vita means life. Witches have more magicis blood, or magic blood. Same for weapons and just normal humans, though everyone has life blood in them." Maka was fascinated, with the whole blood mixing situation.
"What's the mix for a human?" She asked, eyes burning with interest.
"2% life blood, 96% blood and the remming 2 is usually a mix of Magicis and Arma blood." Lolika answered with ease. "As for free, he has about 4% Vita blood, just enough to reproduce without causing side effects."
"What's your blood mix?" A new voice piped up from the couch across from her. "I'm Liz by the way, one of Kids weapon, pleased to meet you." She greeted Lolika politely. The girl in question gave an awkward wave back.
"Erm, well, I don't really have blood." She said awkwardly. Not for the first time that night the room went completely silent. Liz broke said silence.
"You have to have blood," she walked over to Lolika and put her ear right up to her chest. "What else would be pumping that heart?" Lolika's pale cheeks were turning red.
"I never said that there was nothing going through me, it's just not blood." assassin
She mumbled the last part.
"Oh, ok." Liz replied simply not wanting to push it, seeing how the girl was obviously uncomfortable.
Small chit-chat was made between the nine kids until Soul let out a loud long sigh.
"Thanks for having us over," Soul said, shooting a sloppy grin towards Lolika, "I'm gonna hit the sack, night." Maka bid her farewells and quickly followed Soul out the door.
"Guess that our cue to leave," Kid said nonchalantly, "Liz, Patty." he summoned his two weapons, before briskly walking out the door. the sisters said quiet goodbyes before chasing after him.
"Your god shall be leaving now," Lolika turned to see Black Star and Tsubaki slipping back out the window, the way that they initially got in. she waved goodbye as the two jumped/fell to the ground. Sighing she headed to her kitchen to get more of her now returned poptarts.
"Um, ?" a timid voice came from behind her.
"Crona, what are you still doing here?"she questioned the frail looking boy.
"Um, well, Lord Death let me move out of the dungeon, and he said that this was the only room remaining, he said I would have a roommate…." he trailed off, with nothing else to say. Lolika looked at him, they were about the same height. he had choppy pink hair with droopy pale blue eyes. Unlike the others, he always seemed nervous. his posture wasn't the best, and he clung onto his own arm what seemed like for his dear life. He kept sending her quick questioning glances.
"Alright, what is it?" she asked breaking the not awkward yet silence.
"wh-what?" the Pinkette stuttered in surprise.
"Whats your question?" she demanded.
"oh, that," he mumbled. "Its a-about my blood."
"Go on…" 'its like you have to urge him to talk.' Lolika said to herself.
"Well its, uh, Black..."
