Alright, after that brief aside, we're back on track with another review! …for the time being, anyway.
Today's story comes recommended by Zoomatron, who is apparently as sadistic as I am. Since this one is just ridiculously aggravating. Anyway, you agree with the choice, or disagree with it, it was all his idea.
Onward!
/
Maka once told Crona that "you learn something new every day".
This was a difficult concept for Crona to wrap his head around. After all, if you learned something new every day, how long would it take before you learned everything there was to learn? And just how much was there to learn? The revelation of his fictional nature was proof enough that there was so much that he didn't know. Would it even be possible to learn everything there was to learn?
Crona didn't like to think about that sort of thing, so he wasn't really open to learning anything new. Not that that didn't stop Maka from teaching him things.
"Now then, Crona…" Maka began as she leaned over him. "What have we learned from this?"
Crona gave a slight moan, both of his hands resting on his stomach as he leaned back in his chair. He looked up at Maka, taking a moment to think before replying.
"…not to drink the extra large vanilla milkshake?"
Maka nodded. "Right. And why is that?"
"B-Because now I feel sick…?"
"Exactly. And why do you feel sick?"
Crona frowned, taking another moment to think as he tried to not focus on how much his stomach hurt. Is she hinting at something else…? The answer's obvious, so maybe it's wrong…but what else could she mean? he wondered.
"…um…b-because it was too much ice cream…?"
Maka nodded, sitting in her seat and leaning over. "Yes, it was too much. There's a lesson in this, you know."
"There is…?" Crona asked.
"Mhm. "Too much of a good thing can be a bad thing"."
Crona blinked, his mind processing what Maka just told him.
"…too much good…is bad?"
Maka nodded. "Yeah. I mean, just look at your current situation. The milkshake obviously tasted good, but because you had so much of it, now you're feeling sick. Not to mention the sheer amount of sugar that went into you. I'm surprised you're not bouncing off the walls from a sugar high."
Crona frowned, looking down as he thought. Too much of a good thing…what else does that apply to? Is it just material items? Or…something else?
He was brought out of his thoughts when he heard Maka giggling, and looked over to see her shaking in her seat, both of her hands over her mouth.
"W-What is it?" he asked.
Maka shook her head, removing her hands. "N-Nothing…just picturing you actually bouncing off of the walls…"
She promptly resumed giggling, trying in vain to stop herself from doing so. Crona gave a small chuckle in response, but quickly returned to thinking about the new "lesson" he was given.
…could it mean that me being with Maka too much…is bad? he wondered. No, that can't be right…I can't imagine that ever being bad for me…but…maybe it would be for her? Would she…get tired of me?
His eyes travelled back down to his feet, as he tried not to think about the possibility of Maka being tired of being around him. It was probably the most difficult task he had up to that point, and he was failing miserably.
She'd leave me…she wouldn't want to be around me anymore, and then I'd be all alone again, and I definitely can't deal with being alone anymore, but what would I do then, how would I react, what would happen if she got bored with me, would it be because of something I-
His thoughts were interrupted when he felt two arms gently encircle him, as well as Maka's head resting on his shoulder. He gave a sigh of relief, leaning his head over so it touched Maka's. It didn't take very long for his worries to seemingly melt away, as he reveled in the warmth that he was feeling, that particular kind of warmth that only came from Maka hugging him.
"You looked like you were thinking pretty hard there…" Maka whispered to him.
"Y-Yeah…" he whispered back. "…I don't think I like this lesson…"
Maka gave him a gentle squeeze. "Well, not everything you learn is supposed to be pleasant…but in this case, it might just be because you were thinking too much…"
Crona blinked. "…you can think too much?"
Maka giggled. "Sure, I do it all the time. The problem with thinking too much is that you wind up analyzing every little detail and possibility, and eventually you just give up or make the wrong decision. Sometimes you just need to step back and take a moment to relax."
"…but…isn't that sort of "too much of a good thing" too…?"
"…yeah, I guess it can be, if you look at it like that."
Crona gently lifted his head away from Maka, allowing him to turn so as to look at her.
"So…how much thinking do you need? What isn't too much or too little?"
Maka gave Crona a small smile, then reached up behind him and gently grabbed the back of his head. She tilted it forward so their foreheads touched, and she closed her eyes soon after. Crona blushed at the contact, but made no objections. After a few quiet minutes, Maka gave a small sigh.
"I really wish I knew the answer to that one, Crona…"
She pulled away after that, leaving Crona slightly surprised. She doesn't know…?
He gave a small sigh. Of course, Maka couldn't know everything. She was smart, much smarter than anyone else Crona knew. But even so, there had to be some things she didn't know about. To think otherwise would just be silly.
Sometimes, Crona hated how childish he could be.
"Anyway…" Maka said, interrupting Crona's thoughts again. She held up one of their many fanmail letters. "Let's get to these, shall we?"
Crona nodded while Maka opened her first letter.
How do you think you'd react if your father happened to be a guest star?
Maka sighed. "Honestly? I wouldn't be happy. As much as I absolutely can't stand him…he shouldn't have to go through this."
Even though you said you have no artistic talent whatsoever, would find an art museum interesting at all?
"I doubt I would…but I guess I could at least try."
Whats the lowest score you've ever gotten on a test?
Maka grumbled. "73…"
Crona fidgeted slightly. "Th-That was only because you came in with a fever, Maka…"
"It was an important test, there was no way I was going to miss it."
Did you decorate your apartment, did Soul, or was it mutual?
"Actually, it's pretty much the same since we first moved in. Except for our rooms, and one or two minor additions here and there."
Apple juice or orange juice?
"Orange. Apple's a little too sweet for me."
Maka placed the letter aside and opened her next one.
We'll probably never meet, but if we did, would you teach me the Maka Chop?
Maka placed the letter with the other, then placed her hands together under her chin, giving a small "hmm" while leaning forward.
"Well, I'm not entirely sure. For one thing, I have no idea who you are, so I'd need a basic idea of what sort of person you are. Then there's the rigorous practice and teaching involved, which could take quite a while. I can't say for sure if you'd be up for it. Very few people are."
Crona blinked as Maka grabbed her next letter. "But you taught Raven…"
"I only taught her the basics because we were low on time. I could tell she was a kindred spirit, and I knew she would make good use of what I had taught her. Besides, from what you've told me, she's doing her own thing with it now, right?"
"That's true…"
"So, in the end, it works out…oh, this one's actually for all of us."
Crona blinked, leaning over to read the letter.
Yeah sorry for the overly personal questions. My sense of humor tends to really cross the lines sometimes. So i know this probably doesnt help at all, but again, sorry. They are impulsive and usually involve caffeine or sugar.
Maka sighed, shaking her head as she placed the letter with the others. "This is why I seriously wonder about our fanbase's collective sanity."
Crona frowned as Maka opened her next letter. "W-Well…at least she gave a reason for it…"
"And it's that reason that I'm talking about. You don't just automatically ask the first question that comes to your mind when you're talking to a friend, do you? You have to think about it first! And I'm glad this person is admitting her mistake and all, but it really should be common sense!"
From what I`ve seen in the manga, it seems that you enjoy reading mangas as well as regular books. Any personal favorite manga series?
"Well, I do have a few favourites, but right now I'm liking K-On."
Does Soul ever get frustrated when playing board games?
"When he's not trying and failing oh-so-miserably to cheat, yes."
So...do you have any idea why exactly Stein turned Sid into a zombie? And why Sid seems okay with this now?
"I think Stein just liked the idea of actually creating life…so to speak. And why wouldn't Sid be OK with it? If I had a second chance at life, I'd snatch it up!"
How many languages can you speak? Which ones?
"Well, my mother did teach me some Japanese when I was younger…but I haven't used it since, so I'm probably rusty. I can also read German, but I'm not too sure on speaking it…oh, and I've been studying French, so there's that too-…Crona, are you OK?"
Crona was looking away, trying to hide his heavy blush. "Y-Yes, I'm fine! J-Just go ahead with the questions!"
"…oooookay…"
Whats your favorite type of flower?
"Daisies, actually."
Whats your favorite type of candy?
"Reese's Peanut Butter Cups."
From what I`ve seen, some of you guys have survived some nearly impossible things. For instance, Black Star has survived multiple wounds very easily and quickly. And Stein too. You`ve survived some pretty nasty things yourself that normal humans wouldnt have lasted long under. Are you guys naturally above average humans, or are you just normal humans with a lot of luck?
"Oh, we are very, very lucky to have survived what we've survived…well, Kid is the son of Lord Death, so I guess he can survive quite a bit…and Crona here has the black blood, which makes him practically invincible…but yeah, the rest of us have been pretty damn lucky. Having an awesome medical staff at the academy helps, of course."
Do you enjoy the snow?
"Like watching it, hate having to be out in it."
What was one of your most favorite books as a child?
"I liked reading The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster…I should give that another read sometime soon…"
She placed the letter in the slowly-growing pile and opened the next one.
I get the feeling that even if Spirit wasnt the lying, cheating, scum of the earth, you'd still hate him, is this true?
"I can't really answer this question, since that's basically who he is, and I don't know what he'd be like if he wasn't like that."
Did you truly forgive Crona the moment you touched his soul for hurting Soul? cuz i dont think a normal person you be 'ah, your a sweet kid, even if you ripped my weapon open and almost killed him, i'll forgive you' didnt you still hate him just a little bit for that? Like, not now, but like the day and next day after befriending him.
Maka sighed, turning to look at Crona, who was guiltily looking at his feet. She reached over and gave him another hug, squeezing him gently. It took a few seconds, but Crona eventually returned the gesture.
"I can't explain my reasoning for that, because it's very difficult to put into words. Nor should I have to. It is what it is, and that's all there is to it."
She pulled back slightly, reaching up and gently cupping Crona's face.
"And I don't regret my decision. At all."
Crona flushed at that, eyes widening in surprise. Maka smiled, then pulled Crona back into the hug, giving a small hum of content while resting her head on his shoulder.
Her hum quickly stopped when she heard a small sniffle come from him.
"Crona…?"
"J-Just a second…please…" he mumbled into her shoulder.
Maka started rubbing his back, attempting to soothe him. She heard him give a few more sniffles, even shaking a little while doing so. No sobs followed, however, but instead she felt Crona take a few calming breaths. His breathing soon returned to a normal rate, and she felt Crona gently squeeze her.
"OK…I'm OK now…"
Maka slowly pulled back to get a look at Crona's face. He reached up and rubbed his eyes a little, but gave Maka a small, reassuring smile all the same. Maka returned the smile, then let him go, turning back to the letter.
Have you ever considered shooting Blackstar with enough sedatives to knock an elephant you and locking him in an aslyum? (Like, chaining him, keeping him chained 24/7 and whatever else it tkaes to keep him from breaking out)if not, i sugest you start considering it now. (He REALLY needs to be in one)
"Oh, that's a perfectly normal reaction. Honestly, as much as he gets on my nerves, Black*Star doesn't need that."
Who do you love? Like, romantically love?
Maka flushed, speaking through grit teeth. "None of your damn business, that's who."
Have you read the Warriors Saga? (If not, i highly suggest you do, its an amazing series with around 30 books in the series)
"If I can get some time on my hands, I might give it a try."
Maka tossed the letter aside, sighing as she opened her next one. "Why do I have this sneaking suspicion that I'm going to be getting a bad one soon?"
Crona gulped. "B-Because we're just unlucky…?"
"Sounds about right."
Do you like L from Death Note?
"Uh…he's…interesting? I guess?"
What do you think of crona?
Maka grinned, reaching over and hugging Crona. "Oh, he's just my bestest best friend in the whole wide world, that's all."
Crona blushed heavily, giving a small smile in reply.
What would you do if crona was kicked out of the DWMA?
"Then there wouldn't be a DWMA anymore."
Crona faltered slightly. "W-What do you mean…?"
"One thing you should know about me, Crona: When I get really, really mad, I get creative. So I'm sure I can find a way to burn a brick building to the ground, given the proper motivation."
Crona flushed, looking down at his feet. "You…you would really go that far…for me…?"
Maka blinked, then gave Crona another hug. "Did you miss the whole "bestest best friend in the whole wide world" thing I said a few seconds ago? Yes, I would, without a second thought."
Crona opened his mouth to speak, but Maka held up a finger to silence him.
"And don't you dare turn around and say you aren't worth it. I say you are, so you are. End of discussion. Alright?"
"Y-Yes ma'am…"
Try reading Breaking Point by Roving Otter it really is not that bad and it is pretty acurate.
"Yeah, hope you realize that I'll be taking that recommendation with a grain of salt."
Maka tossed the letter aside and grabbed the next one.
Did you come up with the Maka-Chop yourself, or what?
"No, my mother taught me. As her mother taught her, and her mother before her, and so on, and so on."
I watched the last episode of the anime again, and as much as the 'punch of courage' thing or whatever annoyed me, how is it possible that no one had to be hospitalized. Seriously, after you had your weapon moment, it looked like his grip would have at least broken a rib.
"Who's to say we weren't hospitalized? Just because you didn't see it, doesn't mean it didn't happen."
Maka sighed, opening her last letter. "I have a feeling I'm going to regret saying that…"
Crona blinked. "Why…?"
"Because they can easily use that as an excuse for whatever psychotic idea they have for their story being canon."
"…I'd ask for an example, but I don't think I want one…"
"No, you really don't."
Seems that if someone references a specific chapter and page then it immediately shows up in your memory but let's say that if I said:-
Chapter 4 page 39
Both Maka and Crona flinched as the image in question appeared in their minds.
Would it immediately pop up in your mind? Also would it work if it had other forms like; Chapter 4 last page or the chapter where Soul gets gutted like a fish and Maka shouldn't blindly call someone a fangirl? Would it work?
Maka stared at the letter, the room having gone deathly quiet. Without even looking, she knew that Crona was most likely staring at his feet again, feeling guilty for his actions.
She quietly turned the letter on its side and slowly ripped it in half. She then placed the two halves together and ripped them again. Then she did the same for the quarters. Then the eighths. Then the sixteenths. And so on. And so on.
When she felt she had done enough, she dropped the pieces of paper on the ground, dusting her hands afterwards. By this point, Crona had since looked up at her, having watched her tear the letter apart, almost hypnotized by the slow, careful pace to it. He was now anxiously waiting for what her next action would be.
When she finally spoke, it was in an unusually calm voice.
"You know…you're right." Maka began. "I shouldn't have called you a fangirl. Because, as much as I hate on our fans, boys or girls, they at least like us. You clearly do not. No, what you are is, plain and simple, a sadist. A poor, sad, pathetic excuse for a human being, who gets off on other people's pain."
Her voice began to rise. "But I can say this about you: You are just barely underneath our esteemed host in terms of sadism. And that's only because you actually admit to your nature, whereas he tries to act like he's still a decent human being! But that doesn't change what you are, nor does it change the fact that you should've been put down like a dog at birth!"
She had got to her feet, her anger now very, very evident. "You see, I've dealt with people like you before. I know what you really are. Underneath your tough façade, you're really just a child. A weak, spoilt child who likes to break his toys because it gives him a warm, fuzzy feeling in his gut. And like a child, you throw temper tantrums when things don't go the way you expect, which is why I'm bothering to talk to you right now. Because I dared to call you a fangirl."
She had started to shake, glaring up at the screen as though it was responsible for her mood. "Wake-up call, numbnuts! I can call you whatever the fuck I want to call you, and there isn't jack nor shit that you can do about it! I can say your father was ass-raped in prison by about every other person in there, as well as most of the guards! I can say the only reason you even exist was because your mother sold herself for about 10 cents per person! Yes, I can actually call you the son of a thousand fathers, all of them bastards like you! How exactly do you plan on stopping me?"
Her hands had tightened into fists, the words coming out of her mouth drenched with pure hate. "But let me tell you what you can do. Right now, you can get on your knees, and you can pray. You can pray to whatever pathetic excuse for a God that you believe in that the very, very small possibility of us meeting face to face never, ever happens. Because if it does, there is nothing on this planet…no, in the entirety of existence, that will stop me from strangling you with your small intestine!"
With that, she flopped back into her seat, face red from her rant. She sat for a few minutes, fuming silently, trying as hard as possible to calm herself down before she broke the first thing she could get her hands on. She glanced over to see what Crona was doing.
She saw that he was staring at her in shock, his mouth hanging open. She wasn't sure if it was a positive or a negative reaction, which instantly worried her.
"…see? Told you I get creative when I get mad." she said, giving a wiry smile while doing so.
Crona's mouth slowly closed, yet the look of shock was still evident on his face. His head eventually lowered, his face now difficult to see.
…great, now I've upset him… Maka thought bitterly.
"Sorry…I just need a minute to calm down…"
She blinked in surprise when Crona's hand gripped her arm. His voice was very shaky when he spoke.
"C-C-Can…can I help? …somehow…?"
Maka stared at Crona for a few seconds, before placing a hand under his chin, gently tilting his head up to look at her. She gave him a small smile before answering.
"Well…there's the usual method."
His expression changed to one of confusion for a moment, before he gave a slight "oh" of understanding. He straightened up before reaching forward and wrapping Maka in a hug. She quickly did the same, squeezing him tight while her face fell into his shoulder.
He flinched slightly, expecting tears or muffled screams of frustration. Instead, all that he felt was Maka's hot breath against his shoulder, indicating that she was trying to calm down. He gently rubbed her back, which seemed to be the right move to make, as her breathing slowly changed to a normal rate. Finally, he felt her give a long sigh before raising her head.
"No one threatens you, Crona. Not ever."
Crona blinked in surprise. …wait, what?
He slowly pulled away in order to look at Maka's face.
"Maka…that was directed at you…"
Maka nodded. "I know…but, even so, he did threaten you, indirectly. And I won't let anyone do that. No matter who they are."
Crona's expression of shock returned, once again staring at Maka in disbelief. This caused Maka to give another smile, arms still around Crona.
"Do I need to refer to the "bestest best friend" thing again?"
What Maka didn't expect right then was for Crona to give a small laugh in response, returning her smile with one of his own.
"…unless I'm hearing things, I believe you just laughed, good sir."
Crona blushed, eyes looking off to the side. "Y-Yeah…just a little one."
Maka moved forward, hugging Crona again. After another quick squeeze, she pulled away again.
"Geez…all that and we haven't even got to your letters yet."
Crona looked at his pile of letters, giving a slight gulp. "I'm not so sure I want to now…"
Maka sighed as Crona reluctantly grabbed his first one. "I knew I should've brought the paper shredder like I planned…"
I'm not a fangirl, but I'd like to let you know you're definitely my favorite. (Right next to Kid. I can't choose.)
"…how does Kid have so many fans, anyway…?"
Maka shrugged. "I guess our fans like goofy things. Hence why Gopher's only claim to fan love is his stupid lip thing."
You're such an interesting person, and really, I'm intrigued by you. You've got this whole thing about you where it's just impossible to not like you. Stay strong man. You're super :)
Crona blushed at the compliment, and his blush only got larger when he felt Maka give him a small poke on the cheek.
"Well, she's definitely right about that "impossible to not like" part."
…my face feels like it's on fire… Crona thought, his blush getting brighter and brighter.
Whats your favorite jellybean flavor?
"Licorice…but I haven't exactly had a craving for jellybeans lately…"
Maka sighed. "Crona, honestly, you shouldn't let what an incredibly creepy fangirl says prevent you from doing something you like."
"B-But…like you said…she was incredibly creepy."
"I think we can consider that par for the course now."
Do you have a favorite flower?
"N-No, not really…"
Until a few minutes ago, that is… Crona thought.
Do you like reading fanfics about Soul Eater, or other fandoms better?
"Other fandoms. Definitely, definitely other fandoms."
Sugar cookies, or chocolate chip?
"Ch-Chocolate chip…"
Maka grinned as Crona opened his next letter. "So that's what's been happening to our chocolate chip cookies…"
"S-Sorry!"
Maka simply giggled in response.
You seem to be pretty flexible. Have you ever tried yoga?
"No…I've never really been interested in that…"
He then looked over his shoulder. "Ragnarok, there's a question for you…"
That familiar splortch echoed out as Ragnarok uncurled from Crona's back, peering over his head.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm up, let's get this over with."
Maka raised an eyebrow. "What's with you?"
"I know this is going to end badly somehow, and I have a chance of getting out of here, whereas you poor suckers don't! So the sooner my little bit is done, the sooner I can go back to sleep!"
Do you believe in karma?
"Hell no I don't! Because no matter what I did wrong, I can tell you I did not deserve to be stuck like this for the rest of my life!"
Crona gave a small sigh, letting Ragnarok's comment go as he opened his next letter.
"Yours are first, Ragnarok…"
"Good! Let's hurry the fuck up already!"
Why are you so mean?
"…hello? Look at me! Look at my current situation! Look at who I'm stuck to! Why wouldn't I be in a permanently bad mood?"
Whats your favorite thing to eat? If you have a favorite that is.
"Lady, if I was going to tell you everything I like to eat, we'd be here all day."
Is there something that scares you?
"Excalibur."
Both Maka and Crona looked up at Ragnarok in surprise.
"…hey, neither of you know the guy like I do! Why do you think I've kept us as far away as possible from him?"
Which, of all the different forms you`ve taken, is your favorite?
"I liked it when we were a pre-Kishin, if only because I actually got to have some swords of my own!"
Crona shuddered. "C-Can you please not bring that up…?"
"Oh, get over it already!"
Of all of Crona`s friends, who is your favorite? Or rather, who can you tolerate best?
"The one who gets on my nerves the least is Soul, and that's only because he doesn't talk every five freakin' seconds!"
Yeah i guess i was a bit hypocritical (which i again apologize for). But who isnt from time to time? Arent you usually a hypocrite?
"I'm sorry, I can't understand you over your hypocrisy!"
Are you a secret Brony? Do you watch My Little Pony Friendship is Magic when everyone is asleep?
Which is your favorite pony? Rainbow Dash? Fluttershy? Rarity? Twilight Sparkle? Apple Jack? Oh i bet its Pinkie Pie! Its Pinkie Pie isnt it?
Crona gave a small squeak before quickly covering his ears. Maka reflexively did the same, though she wasn't entirely sure why.
A couple of seconds later, when Ragnarok gave a literal room-shaking scream, she understood.
"That! Is! IT! If I hear one more word about those goddamned ponies, I'm killing everybody! Every single person I can get my hands on dies! Dies horrible bloody deaths involving cannibalism and…and…trees! I will think of a way to kill people with fucking trees! I swear I fucking will!"
Maka leaned over to whisper to Crona. "I'm getting serious Snails vibes from him…"
Crona simply nodded, but quickly stopped when Ragnarok leaned down in between them, glaring at Maka.
"I don't even know who the fuck that is and I can tell you that you're flat out wrong! Whoever that is I am nothing like them! I'm not some pansy-ass future-glue-factory-victim for you to coo and gush over! So you can take your character comparisons and-"
He stopped, suddenly coming to a realization. "…wait…"
He then turned to look at Crona, a very dangerous glint in his eyes.
"You…you agreed with her…"
Crona gave another squeak before picking up the letter again.
"S-So, next question for you is-URK!"
He was cut off by Ragnarok grabbing him by the collar and starting to shake him back and forth.
"I knew it! She fucking turned you, didn't she? She got you into those godforsaken ponies, didn't she? Why? Why do you keep doing this to me? Why can't you ever have any pride in your manhood? Why do I have to keep providing the testosterone for the both of us? WHYYYYYYY?"
"R-R-Ragnarok, c-c-can you ple-e-ease stop do-o-o-ing that? I'm ge-e-etting di-i-i-zzy!"
Ragnarok only stopped when Maka grabbed his head, pulling back so that he was staring at her, hanging upside down.
"You want to know what I think?"
"Does it look like I do?" Ragnarok shouted.
"Too bad, it was a rhetorical question."
She let go of his head, which hung there, glaring at her while she continued.
"See, the way I look at it, it's a good thing that he's willing to show that he likes something like that. It's a sign that he's comfortable with who he is."
"…you know what?" Ragnarok replied.
"What?"
"That doesn't change the fact that he likes those goddamned ponies!"
Maka sighed, shaking her head. "You're hopeless."
"Hey, you know what? Fuck you."
Ragnarok then moved back over Crona's head. "And fuck you too, pansy! Now hurry up with the rest of those questions so I can go back and act like this conversation never happened!"
Crona gave a small groan as he returned to the letter.
How many times have you been Maka Chopped?
"Fuck if I know! Since she likes to do it at the drop of a hat, I lost count ages ago!"
"MAKA CHOP!"
Ragnarok howled in pain, clutching at his head before glaring at Maka.
"What the fuck was that for?"
Maka gave a very cheeky grin. "Well, apparently I like to do it at the "drop of a hat", sooooo…"
Ragnarok gave an incoherent sputter, before throwing his hands up in the air and looking back at the letter.
What do you do when you are inside of Crona? Is it just like going to sleep?
"Oh, if only! And even though it's usually muffled in there, I can still hear what's going on pretty well! It's like living with a roommate, and the walls are made of fucking wax paper!"
Do you ever feel lonely?
"Lady, I wish I had that luxury!"
Ragnarok then gave another frustrated shout before diving back into Crona's body. Maka blinked, something popping up in her mind.
"Oh! That's right, I completely forgot about that!"
Crona watched as Maka suddenly pulled something out from her coat, but before he could get a good look at it, she quickly hid it behind her back.
"F-Forgot what?"
Maka tilted her head, giving Crona a wide smile.
"I got you a present, Crona!"
Crona blinked. She got me a present? She actually got me something?
"W-What's the occasion?"
"Oh, nothing special. I just saw it and I thought you might like it."
She pulled the object out from behind her and placed it in Crona's hands.
"Here you go!"
Crona looked down at the object in question. He soon gave a low gasp when his eyes fell on it.
He recognized the yellow skin, the pink hair, the feathered wings, and the shy look in its eyes. He gave it a small squeeze with his fingers, feeling the fabric that made the plush toy.
Maka leaned over, smile still on her face. "Your favourite one, right?"
Crona gave a small nod, still staring at it.
Maka grinned. "I take it you like it?"
Crona nodded again, slowly hugging the plush toy to his chest.
"Th-th-th-th-th-th-th-"
Maka giggled slightly. "Would that be a "thank you" you're trying to spit out?"
Crona nodded again.
Maka gently wrapped her arms around him. "You're very welcome, Crona."
She gave a small "umph" as Crona suddenly turned in his seat and hugged her back. She felt him squeezing her tighter than he ever did, and had to gently pat his back in response.
"Um, Crona? I appreciate the enthusiasm, but you're hugging me a little too tight…"
She heard him give a small squeak, before quickly letting go and returning to his seat, face bright red.
"S-S-Sorry…it's just…you've never given me a present before…"
Maka blinked, not realizing that fact. "I haven't?"
Crona shook his head, hugging the plush toy while doing so, almost as though he expected someone to snatch it away as soon as he let go of it.
Maka frowned. "Huh."
I wonder if he's going to react like that every time I give him something… she wondered as Crona looked back at the letter.
Ever tried meditation? It may help, even if just a little.
"Well…it works for Raven, so maybe…"
What is your favorite musical instrument? To listen to i mean.
"Flutes…they're very calming…"
You seem to like flowers. Any favorite kind in particular?
"…didn't I just get this question…?"
Sorry for causing you discomfort.
"A-Apology accepted…"
Which general subject do you enjoy most? (ex. English, math, science, history)
"English, I guess…"
What is your personal dream? Like if you could start over and do or be anything you wanted what would it be?
"…I'll have to think about that one…"
Sorry again that i am, well, a "fangirl". But the reason that many girls are a fan of you i think is because there really arent many guys out there with a heart as pure as yours, especially considering all the mess you had been forced to go though. Sometimes i dont think there are any. You are an astounding character for ending up as kindhearted as you are. I guess some fangirls just find hope that, despite the odds, there may be a decent guy out there somewhere when they see you, even though they know that you are, well to us at least, fictional. Any girl who has you as a friend is a lucky person.
Crona stared at the letter, mouth hanging open slightly in surprise. He could feel his face getting hotter and hotter as he tried not to think about the implications of that.
"Pure heart"? "Kindhearted"? "Decent guy"? Is…is that really true? But what does all that mean…? Is…is she just talking about as a friend, or…
Crona's thoughts were interrupted by Maka's arms encircling him again, her head resting on his shoulder once again. He heard her give a small "mmm" as she held him, but try as he might to use this to calm himself, these thoughts just wouldn't go away. In fact, it only made Crona think about them more.
Could I…could I really be good…in that way? he wondered, face still red.
"Any girl who has you as a friend is a lucky person"…hm, talk about understatements… Maka thought.
Besides Maka, who can you say that you admire the most?
"…can I get back to you on that…?"
Have you ever kept a journal?
"N-No…but I've thought about it…"
Do you know how to swim?
"Y-Yes…but I don't really like to…"
Maka tilted her head while Crona opened his next letter. "Why don't you like to swim?"
"Too many bad experiences…"
Have you ever though of some classes to help boost your own self confidence? If not, i'm sure there are some somewhere
"…they have classes for that?"
It never showed you taking any missions as a DWMA student, (I dont count that incident with Giriko a mission cuz it was some trial thing right?) Have you gone on ANY missions?
Crona twitched involuntarily at the mention of Giriko's name, before answering. "W-Well…I have been on a couple, mostly just to help out whoever I'm with…but I haven't got any souls yet…"
Have you ever heard of the song Dancing Lasha Tumbai? (Doesnt it make u wanna jump up and do a jig? XD)
"Uh…I've never heard of it…"
Have you any favorite books?
"Not at the moment…"
do you play any computer games?
"No, I don't own a computer…or a TV, for that matter…"
Maka frowned as Crona opened the next letter. "You know, you could just ask for things like that…"
"I-I don't think there are any outlets in my room…"
Crona blinked in surprise. "Oh…this one is for us both…"
Favorite drink?
"Coke Zero." Crona replied.
"Hot chocolate." Maka added.
If you could spend anywhere with anybody/bodies where and who?
Maka tilted her head. "Well, that's a pretty general question. I can't exactly answer that without taking a while to think about it."
Crona blushed, not answering.
Can either of you cook really well?
Maka smiled. "Well, certain people like to think I'm some sort of master chef, but really, they're overselling my abilities."
Crona looked down. "I tried it a couple of times…but I don't think I'm very good…"
Maka patted Crona's shoulder as he opened his next letter. "It just takes practice, is all. Besides, those brownies you made that one time were pretty good."
Crona flushed. "B-But…the cookies…"
"…that was just a freak mishap, is all."
Who is your favorite person?
Crona blushed brightly. Good thing Subarashii isn't here, or he'd never stop talking about how obvious this is…
Maka leaned over, cheeky smile on her face. "Weeeeeeeeell?"
Crona blinked. "H-Huh?"
"Your favourite person. Who is it?"
Crona's blush grew heavier. "Y-Y-You…o-of course…"
Maka giggled, reaching over and hugging him again.
"I know. I just like hearing you say it."
Mental note: say that to her every day. Crona thought.
What would you do if maka had died protecting you?
Crona gave a loud gasp, the letter falling out of his hands. He quickly started to hyperventilate, his hands grasping his own arms, his entire body shaking out of pure fear.
Maka quickly grasped his face, turning it to look at her.
"Crona! Crona, it's OK! I'm right here! Relax!"
Crona stared at Maka, his breath still coming in brief, rapid gasps. His breaths began to slow, but only to turn into sobs, as tears began to well up in Crona's eyes.
Maka quickly pulled him into a tight hug, his face falling into her shoulder. She squeezed him closer as he sobbed into her.
"I don't want you to go…I don't want to lose you…"
She gently shushed him, rubbing his back while whispering to him. "It's OK…I'm not going anywhere. I'm here. It's OK…"
It took a good five minutes, but eventually, Crona's sobs stopped. He slowly pulled away from Maka, looking into her eyes. Maka gave a small sigh, then gently reached up and brushed away his tears, a small, comforting smile on her face.
"I'm not going anywhere anytime soon, Crona. You have nothing to worry about."
Crona gave a small sniffle. "S-Sorry…I can't…I can't help thinking about that…"
"I know. Believe me, I know how scary that can be. But there's no way of knowing if that will happen. You can't go worrying about all the "what ifs", Crona. That's that overthinking thing I mentioned earlier."
Maka gently rubbed his cheek, the smile still on her face. "Please, just focus on the here and now. OK?"
Crona gave another sniffle, then slowly nodded.
"O-OK…"
You are my second favorite male anime character hope you and maka are happy together
Both of them quickly blushed at that, Maka's hand going over her face to cover hers.
Yeah, she says that immediately after asking that question…why do we have such stupid people as our fans? Maka wondered.
PS maka hit ragnorok for me.
"Already did, but I'm sure I can find a good reason to do so later."
Crona could swear he heard a grumble come from his back as he opened his next letter.
What was going through your head when Maka got taken over by the black blood?
"…can we just not talk about that?"
What do you do when our bored?
"I usually just walk around the city…"
Maka frowned as Crona opened his last letter. "Why not just come visit me?"
"Th-The time of day…"
"…Crona-"
"I-I mean it's early! Early in the day! B-Before anyone's awake!"
"…so you haven't been skipping sleep?"
"N-No…"
"Good."
Were there really no good memories of Snakey McTentacleRape (aka Medusa)
Crona twitched, his hands shaking. He slowly put the letter down, head lowered and face obscured.
"Crona-" Maka began, but was suddenly cut off by Crona raising a hand in front of her.
"P-Please…j-just…let me say this…"
Maka frowned, but nodded. "OK…"
Crona lowered his hand, placing it with his other in his lap. He took a few deep, shaky breaths, before speaking.
"…I killed her…because she showed me kindness, for the very first time in my entire life. Not once…before then, did she ever say a nice word, or give a nice gesture, or do anything even remotely kind to or for me. I killed her because it is impossible for her to be kind…and I was right. Because she knew I would kill her, and deliberately made me react that way..."
His head rose to look at the screen, his bitterness clear in his voice.
"But then again…you should know that already, shouldn't you?"
With that, he got to his feet, and walked over to the table, grabbing the envelope atop it and opening it.
Going by your respective personalities, your time allotted here, and just general common sense, I can tell you will not enjoy this one. It shouldn't take too long, though, so just grin and bear it as best as you can.
The story is called "a new problemor two" by Will. A. Lii.
Good luck.
"Problemor"? Crona thought as he walked back to his seat. He sat back down, giving a small sigh while doing so.
He felt Maka's hand gently grasp his own, and turned to look at her, noticing the concerned frown on her face.
"Are you alright…?" she asked.
Crona looked down, then slowly shook his head. He then gave Maka's hand a small squeeze.
"A-Are you…?"
Maka blinked, then sighed, returning the hand squeeze. "I can safely say I've been in better moods than this…"
She then leaned against his side, her hand still holding his. "Well, they say misery loves company…"
Does it ever… Crona thought as the show began.
/
I do not own Soul
Maka: I should hope not!
I did so many other things would of happened.
Crona: And we're probably going to see a few of those right now…
WACK!
Something hit my face waking me up.
Maka: Great, POV again. Can anyone actually attempt not writing in first-person?
"What are you doing?"I ask tiredly
"Get up Light!"My twin sister Star yells
Crona: …t-t-two OCs…POV from one of them…I'm not going to make it through this one…
"Go away,"I roll over
"Get up!We have school!"She hollars ,pounding me with her pillow
Maka: Oh, please let that pillow be filled with bricks…
Crona: We aren't that lucky…
"Fine,fine gesh you`re annoying,"I grumble as I climb down from the top bunk
"Just hurry up!"She yells and runs out.I quickly brush through my hair but I run thruogh it messing it up again.I have chin lenth,uneven messy black hair,my bangs fall infront of eyes which are light emrould.I wear a black sweater , red plaid skinny jeans and black my sweaters so it looks like its holding it together at the top is a yellow and blue bow, on the right side over my chest is a red tie,a zipper pockety an my left and on my left arm is a red and black checkered pocket,a lose think yellow belt slants towards my left on it is a dark blue my nexck is a red choker with a very detailed eight point star.
Crona: And they're Sues, too…
Maka: I thought that was obvious.
Crona: It's not until they devote a paragraph to what they look like that they're really Sues…
I walk out of Stars and my room and go down to the kitchen where I see Dad cooking.
Dad has long past his shoulder blonde hair pulled back in a ponytail, his eyes are ice blue under black wears a knee length black jacket,its really fancey , you can`t see his actul shirt but you can his black dress pants and his black lifts,he has white gloves and a tall black top hat.
Crona: They're going to describe the parents too?
Maka: Wait…who the hell wears a top hat as part of their usual outfit?
Crona: …demented Tim Burton fans?
Maka: That wouldn't surprise me…
I steal his plate of bacon and eggs and when his toast pops I snatch that it then lazily sit in the lazy boy in the living room and turn on the tv.
"Hey thats mine!"
"Finders keepers,"
"It was on the counter!"
"Where I found it , there for it is mine."Dad shakes his head
"Where did you learn how to twist facts?"
"My mom,"He smiles as he looks at a picture of her,My mom was a tall beautiful woman with long flowing raven hair and sparkling emrould we were young when she died so thats all I really know about her.
Maka: Sooooooo…if you don't know anything about her, how do you know you inherited anything from her? Wow, not even a quarter of the way through this chapter and we're already finding inconsistencies!
"Honestly Light stop being improper,"Star says"Sit at the table."I sigh and sit at the kitchen looks exactly like me only her hairs neat and has two clip placed on either side of her wears a think loose off the shoulder yellow long sleave shirt, a shoet dark blue jean skirt,striped yellow and blue socks that almost reach her skirt,high heeles ankle on the left side of her chest is a eight way black and red bow,on the right is white bottens,a safty pin with a chain hanging off to the right is a thick red belt on it is a black her neck is blue choker with a eight point star.
Maka: We get it, they think they're punks! Move on already!
Crona: They won't…they'll describe every single minute detail about themselves but say nothing about anyone else…it's happening again, it's Tempation again!
Maka: …was it really that bad?
Crona: Yes.
"Girls I have some news concerning work,"Dad says sitting down,we look at never talks about work,
Crona: Wait, talks about what?
Maka: I noticed that earlier too. They keep leaving out little spots of dialogue for some strange reason.
Crona: Those are pretty big mistakes to just miss…
hell I don`t even know what he does all I know is he comes home sometimes he`ll come home injured.
Maka: This is what happens when you don't unionize.
"What about it Dad?"I ask
"I`ve gotten notice that I might have to go to a differnt section,in a differnt country."
"So we might have to move?"Star askes
Crona: …no, I'd say chances are pretty big that you are going to move.
"Yes,and its to a place I`d rather you not go , though I know you`d love it partners coming if we do go,"
"Mom`s going?"
Crona: Wait, she just said her mom was dead!
Maka: Hmm…for the hell of it, let's just chalk it up to them being able to talk to her ghost.
Crona: But that would mean another character they would have to describe in detail!
Maka: …they already kind of did.
Crona: …oh, right.
I ask,when I say mom I don`t mean our mother,or a stepmother or even a girl at is D.J. my Dads bestfriend scince preschool.D.J.`s not gay he and Dad are in no relation,we just call him mom because he takes care of us and said we`re like his family so we started calling him mom out of joke now its habbit.
Crona: Well, that was…needlessly long…
Maka: That'd describe about 99% of the fanfics we've read.
"If we go,but I`m not sure we are.I want you to think about you want to go we will."
"Okay Dad we`ll think on it,"Star sees the clock
"Morning news is on!"She runs to the living roll our eyes and follow
Crona: …"living roll"?
Maka: What, did this person spontaneously press the delete key and forget to fix it afterwards?
"Huh...Thats odd."
"Whats up?"I ask sitting in my chair
"Last night around supper time six kids went out,"
"Whats so odd about that?"
"None retruned."
"That is odd."
Maka: And incredibly obvious statements are incredibly obvious!
Dad says sitting on the arm of my lazy boy the screen then shows pictures of the kids
"Hey they`re in our scince class."I say
"Yeah,"We hear the door leading from our garage open and hurried footsteps.
"Faith!Faith!"Mom lives in the garage we`ve asked if he`d like to live in the actul house but he said no.
Maka: …why?
Crona: Maybe the garage is more comfortable…?
He walks into the living room has shortish shagy , uneven dark brown hair and chocolate brown wears a black dress coat over a black graphfic t-shirt,he has dark blue baggy jeans and a black fancey hat.I forget what their called.
Maka: …"black fancy hat". Wow, award-winning description there.
"Did ya hear `bout the kids?"
"Yes."
"Does it have to do with...?"
"I`m not `t `t he of told us?"
"I don`t know"
Crona: Neither do I, I have no idea what you just said…
Dad looks at us
"Girls its time for school,"He hands us our bags
"Bye Dad,Mom!"Star calls as she walks out
"Later!"I call
"Have a good day!"Dad yells
"See ya!"We walk to the bus stop and steped onto the bus
Maka: Which then catches on fire. The End.
Crona: …that feels significant, somehow…
Star and I walk outside for talks to her friends while I sit reading a manga-Soul eater
Crona: …we don't exist in their world?
Maka: Oh, great, this is going to turn into one of those "real life people entering fictional world" stories, isn't it? Fantastic.
there are quite a few differinces between Star and I ,one she is a girlygirl and I am a tomboy,she`s more social and everything has to be perfict I perfer to be alone and have evrything messied up.
Maka: "In other words, we're token opposites. Because those are automatically interesting characters!"
"Ligh why do you always read instead of talking?"Star askes
Maka: "You expect me to have anything interesting to say? What are you, nuts?"
"I just do,"
"Well-"
"Hey!Hey look!"A kid yells,we look,we see a boy limping across the leg is being dragged behind I`m guess its broken,his shrit is torn and covered blood.,he was on the and I run to him and help him to a pinic table.
Crona: He was on the what? The mickey? The drugs? The roof? Stop leaving these things out, I can't tell what's going on!
"What happned?"Star askes
"That."he says turn and see a tall thing its skin is streached over its sceleton tightly and is a sickly gray it`s hands are long sharpe looking blades hope I don`t find out how sharpe they face in a permit fanged grin.
Maka: …really? You couldn't even come up with an original pre-Kishin? You used Jack?
Crona: I thought you said we shouldn't expect these people to think…
Maka: …good point.
"W-what is that?"I yell wait...If he`s being chased by it..."Wheres the others?"
"It killed...them..."Then he fell limp,I checked his palse nothing.I close my eyes and do a silent prayer then I look up at the stares at us then and I jump up ,bending backwards,our hands on the table and flip so we`re standing on look at each other
"How`d we do that?"We askThe thing made a skin crawling noise
Crona: …I thought "skin crawling" was just an expression. And even if it wasn't, what noise would that even make?
we look at it it raises its arm and swings down we push off of the table,it cuts the table in charges again and we try to doudge eccept we don`t we get we land on grass,we stand and it charges again,I doudge but Star doesn`t ,she flies back into a wall.
"Star!"I yells,it walks towards her.I move without thinking I run towards it.I jump off a picnic table and kick it hard in the head.I land infront of thing step back,it raises its arm,I throw out a hand,a rush goes through my body,making me tingel from head to toe,power courses down my arm and out my fingers throwing it ten feet away.I stare at my hands.
Maka: Wait, wait, wait a second! You mean to tell me that she just spontaneously knows how to project her Soul Wavelength? You can't just suddenly do that! Professor Stein said it took years of training for him to be able to do that! I'm still surprised Black*Star can do it at his age! Hell, I still can't do it myself!
Crona: …Sue…
Maka: Oh, right. …it's still annoying!
What was that?It stands I stare at it and it charges.I pull Star out of the charges again and swings ,we fly through the air ,painfully landing on car windshuilds.I can feel the glass peirce my skin we stand and it swings again.I fly into another car Star into a tree
Crona: …shouldn't they be dead by now?
Maka: Sues.
Crona: …we're going to be using that a lot, aren't we?
Maka: Looks like it.
still she stands and it charges at her,she raises a arm to shuild herself but her arm starts glowing purple,when it stops glowing its a yellow and blue blade,it cuts deep into the things arm
"No way..."This is like Soul eater
Maka: I thought they weren't in our world yet. How is this even happening?
Crona: …maybe they used to be in our world, but then moved to the real world?
Maka: The sad part is is that's probably the case.
her arm anyway and that thing looks like a pre-kishion if I can wield her then...we might stand a chance"Star"I yell running to her,fear and confusion is in her eyes."I need you to figur out how to turn into a full wepon!"
"How?"
"I don`t know!"It swings and we duck"Just do it!"
Maka: Well, how can a plan like that fail?
We doudge as it swings again.I run away from Star"HEY!"I yell and chuck a rock at it,it turns and starts after me,I run as it chases after me ,it knocks down trees and flips cars as it runs after me my hearts as beating faster then a cheetah can run ,fear ices my stomach but I keep runnng inlucky for me I meet a dead end.I quickly turn hoping to run out before it catches to bad that didn`t work.I press my back against the wall maybe it won`t hurt...yeah right!It raises its arm,suddently a large yellow and blue boobarange
Maka: Pfffffft! *starts laughing*
Crona: …I probably shouldn't think too hard about that one, huh?
Maka: *between laughs* Definitely not…
(like Songo`s from Inuyasha)
Maka: …wow, now all potential humour is ruined. Way to go.
hit it in the head before landing ibnfront of me,in a flash its Star.
"You`re a boomarange!"I yell
Crona: To be fair, they're at least using a different weapon…just about everyone else would use something generic, like a katana or a gun or something like that…
"Guess so."We turn towards it
"How we gunna get out of this?"
"The only way we can,right?We`re gonna fight"Fear makes Star shake,its in her eyes and on her face She`s more scared then me.I mean at least I know whats happening even if I`m confused to why.I nod she glows purple but instead of a booarange a sword appers.
Crona: …I'll just take that back now…
"You`re a dark arm!"
"A what?"
"You can turn into more then one wepon!"
Maka: Of course she is! God forbid you pick one weapon and stick with it! No, you're just so super-special awesome that you can turn into more than one!
The thing roars turning our attention back to it.I pick up Star she`s lighter then I thought she` s swings I block it then swing it jumps back and I charge,swinging wildly.I manage to cut it a swingd and I duck and swing cutting it`s arm it roars and swings we go fling back,my head collids with a flag world swims
"Light!Light!"Star yells turning back to human beside me"light!"Light!"My head achs with raw pain"Light!"
"Star...my head hurts,"She propes me up and looks at my head,her hands come away covered in red.
"Light!"She yells
"I`m...tired..."My eyelids droop
"No Light!You have to stay awake!You have to stay with me!"I look at my sister,her clothes are dirty, blood soaks one sleave and I can see a deep cut,her hairs matted and covered with face shows she`s tears make me angry,it burns in my stomach it burns in my takes the place of most of the pain.
Crona: …that would probably be a very touching and dramatic moment…if I had any idea what this fic was saying.
I sit up strighter ingoring the stab of pain.I stand and almost fall,Star helps stare up at itWhat amI gunna do?Star to torn up to turn into a wapon, and in the condition I`m in I probly can`t wield her anyway.I take her hand
"If we die,"
"We die together,"This is a promise we made when we were things,
Crona: When you were things?
Maka: That raises more than a few questions…
we throw out of handsThe same power coursees through me,out my hand eccept this time its way,way,way wind picks up,car get picked up by the wind,the thing flies into a building.
Crona: Wait…did they just put their Soul Wavelength into the air?
Maka: …you have got to be kidding me! You would need a massive Soul Wavelength to be able to do that! Like on Lord Death's level! …I hate Sues so much right now!
Star and I fall,that took all our try to regain our charges and this time theres nothing we can slam our eyes shut waiting for the pain for the it never comes.
"Light!Star!"Dad voice rings out
"Are you okay?"Moms voioce open our eyes we see Dad kneeling infront of us but no Mom or the thing that attacked a staff.
Crona: *sighs* Or a staff…not like that hasn't be done about fifty times…
"Girls!"Dad yells hugging us tightly"You`re okay I thought I`d be too late!"His face holds fear of looseing us.
"As long as we weren`t,"Mom voice says staff starts glowing and turns into Mom he hugs us."How`d you survive?"
"S-Star turned i-into a b-boomarange t-then a s-sword,"I say shakily.
"Y-yeah and L-Light wielded m-me,"Star says just as and Dad look at each other.
"Did anything else happen?"Mom askes
" we made it fly through the air without touching it."They look at each other again.
"Come on we have a lot to do,"Dad says helping us gives me his coat and Mom gives Star his.
"Why?"
"`Cause we`re moving"
Maka: "I knew we shouldn't have come to Jersey, but did anyone listen to me? Hell no! We're going back to Pittsburgh!"
"Dad we`re ready!"Star and I just finished packing we changed and tended to our wounds.
"all right!"Dad calls"D.J. call him!"
"Kay!"Mom carry our bags down
"Girls theres a slight problem."Dad says
"Whats up?"
Maka: "You're both Mary Sues and therefore, we've disowned you."
Crona: …wouldn't that just add to their token tragic backstory?
Maka: …goddammit!
"Well in such notice I couldn`t buy a big enough apartment only two small ones that hold two,"
"So Star and I will be living on our own?"
"Yes."We look at each other
"Awsome!"We say together
Maka: Yeah, until you hook up with whichever one of the guys you're going to hook up with.
Crona: *shudders* Please don't jinx it, Maka…
"I`ll be just down the street,"
"Okay I called him!"Mom calls
"Come on girls,"Dad says
"Wait Dad how come all this is like Soul eater?"
Maka: A valid question! "Dad", your response?
I ask he pauses
"...Cause it go,"
Maka: …that wasn't even close to an answer! Good or bad! It wasn't even a complete sentence! Author, proofread!
We follow Dad into the living room Moms there but no laggege.
Crona: …I can't even begin to guess what that last word is.
"Mom wheres you`re stuff?"Star askes.
"Already there."We stare at him questionaly.
"Girls hand me your hand them to Dad
"Mom do you know where we`re going?'
"Yes,"
"Girls,"Dada says we turn to him"Meet Shinigami-sama"He steps to the side and we our tv is a tall man in a black cloak and a cartoon mask.
"Sup?Suuuup?"He says I look at Star and we smile
"Yo!"Star says
"Yo!"
Crona: …they seem oddly OK with talking to Lord Death, even though they initially thought he wasn't real…
"Its time to go."Dad says
"How?"
"Like this."Mom climbs through the tv,then helps me and Star then finally Dad.
Maka: …I…you…it…they…they actually went into the TV? I…I am honestly stunned. I didn't think they'd go there, but they did! Just…holy Hell, I can't believe I just saw that!
"Wow!"Star and I say in are standing on a circle platform,around us is blue sky but theres windows to sighn that we`re inside,theres sand and crosses,leading away from us is a path lined with arch like gilottens.
Crona: …arch-like gelatins?
"Staffmaster Faith,"Dad says
"Staff D.J."Mom says there bowing
"Are we supose to bow?"Star whispers
"I don`t know,"I whisper back
"Its good to see ya Faith-kun,D.J.-kun!"Shinigami-sama says
Maka: OK, I'm half-Japanese and I don't go around calling everyone "-san" or '-kun" or whatever. So why are the people with zero Japanese blood in them making everyone in these fanfics use honorifics?
Crona: …because they think it's more authentic?
Maka: Well, it isn't. In fact, it just comes off as tacky.
"Faith!D.J.!"A man with chin length red hair calls he wars a black suit,if I remember correctly he`s Spirit or Death scythe.
Maka: Joy.
"Spirit!"Dad calls they hug"Its been awhile!Hows Maka and you`re wife?"Tears gather in Spirits eyes
"Wah!"He cries in a corner...like Tamaki from Ouran high school host club...
Maka: Yeah, we don't need you to keep comparing us to other animes, we can stand on our own, thank you.
"Uh did I hit a nerve?"
"Spirit-senpai and his wife are Maka
Both: AGH!
Maka: I hate the terrible writing in this fic, I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!
hates him." We turn to see a man with short messy,ineven gray hair walking towards has glassees a screw in his head and a long wears a lap coat,a gray turtel neck sweater and black jeans and black `s Stein...I think.
Crona: You don't need to describe him, we already know who he is…
"Stein!"Dad calls they hug
Maka: Professor Stein…hugging?
Crona: But he doesn't hug people! Not even Professor Marie! …not without her going first, anyway…
"How ya been?"
"Fine thank you have you been?"
"Great."
"Hey,hey don`t I get a welcoming to?"Mom asks jokeingly but serous at the same time.
"Of course D.J.-senpai,"Stein says they hug.
"Um Mom Dad whats going on?'Star ask
"Mom?"Stein asks"Wow I knew Faith-senpai played on that team but not you D.J.-senpai.
Crona: …so, one of them is gay?
Maka: I just know this is going to end with the other being "turned gay" for the requisite happy marriage bullcrap. I just know.
"I don`t,it`s just a nick name."
"So these are your girls?They`ve grown quite a bit compared to last I saw them"Stein says
"Yeah,last we saw them they were Two feet high."Spirit says.
"I still have pictures of them playing with Maka"
Maka: Oh, come on! Now the Sues were apparently my friends or whatever while I was growing up! Can we get any more clichéd here?
Dad says"There in my bag somewhere,"Dad starts through his bag
"Dad!"we yell"No baby pictures!"
"All right,all right"Dad says smiling"I`ll show them later."
"Dad!"
"Well Faith-kun,what made you deside to come?"Shinigami-sama askes
"My girls were attcked by a pre-kishin,"
"Oh my!Girls would you like to join DWMA?"
Maka: *head hits tray* Aaaaaaaaaagh!
Crona: …I can safely say that you don't get into the academy just because you were attacked by a pre-Kishin.
"Yes!"I say automaticaly
"...I guess"
"Great!FAith-kun,D.J.-kun have you explained anything to them?"
"Uh no but Light reads Soul eater so...'
"She knows some stuff."
Crona: Is anyone going to explain that…?
Maka: Do you really want to see this person's hackneyed explanation for this gigantic plothole?
Crona: …some sort of explanation would be nice…
"Okay!Okay!Girls!DWMA was made to protect and presurve the peace from the kishin!"
"Kishin?"Star askes
"A kishin is a person whose strayed from the path of good,"I say"Right?"
Maka: There's also that whole "eating souls" thing, but that's no big deal.
"Right!"Shinigami-same continued to explain after awhile he asks"Have you ever seen a witch?"We shake our heads he looks at Dad who looks away"Hm...All right girls!Why don`t you go look around?"
"Okay!"We leave
"Light."
"You noticed it to?That was a excuse to get us to leave."
"But why?"
"I`m guessing it has to do with a witch,"
Maka: Oh, gee, you think so?
"Yeah...Hey lets explore!"
"Yeah!"
Crona: I guess that wasn't that big of a concern to them…
Maka: Either that or they have ADD. Which wouldn't surprise me at all.
We run down the found the class crescent moon and a few other cool places.
Crona: …examples?
Maka: You expect them to know about more than one classroom?
Crona: Good point…
"Dude this place is awsome!"I doesn`t answer"Star?"I turn Stars no where in sight"Star?"I yell"Star?"I start walking "Star?"Panic covers my voice as I run down the stairs.
Stars POV
I run after Light as we look around the stop
Maka: Oh, not again! Pick a point of view and stay with it!
"Dude this place is awsome!"Light yells.I open my mouth to answer but a soft melody distracts me.I follow the music.I end up in a dark room,theres only one lamp and no only furniture in here is a piano.A boy with spiky white hair sits at it,his back to me as he musics dark erie,dark and gets darker as it goes,but thats what draws me in.I move music falls to a close and the last note hangs in the air,he starts another he relise I`m here?He stops halfway and turns.I bearly see his crimson eyes before I run.
Maka: Figures. Sucks to be Soul right now.
Light`s POV
"Star!"I yell"Star!"I run down stairs and halls`Star!Ì yell louder.I hear foot steps and run faster`Star!Ì turn the corner and
WACK!
Run smack into someone,we fall to the floor
"Im so sorry!"Ì yell jumping up.`They have black neat hair with three white strips
Crona: It would be Kid…
Maka: I still say our fans have weird reasons to like characters. Nothing against Kid, but his OCD isn't supposed to be endearing…I think…
" I am so sorry but I have to find my sister!"Ì run leaving them stareing after me"Star!"
"Light!"I hear Stars voice,we meet up both out of breath.
"Star where were you?"
"I`m sorry!Lets just go!"
"Yeah!"We run to find Dad.
No one POV
Maka: Oh for…why not just stick with that? Is it really so hard to write from third-person?
The white haired boy turns just in time to see a black haired girl run out.
"Hm...wonder who that was."He stands and shuts off the lamp"Oh well,"He walks out ,hands in his pockets"Its so uncool thinkin `bout it,"
Crona: …well…at least he didn't use his catchphrase as his first line…
He turns to see a boy with black hair and three white strips on the floor."Why`re you on the floor Kid?"He askes helping him up.
"Soul."He says."I was knocked over by a girl with black said they were looking for they`re sister."
"Black hair?A person with black hair just ran away from me .Don`t know who it was though."
"Strange."
Crona: "But not strange enough for this to end with a "you're twins!" surprise or anything! That would just be silly!"
Pounding on my door woke me up.
Crona: …didn't we just read something like this?
"Go away." I say and roll over and cover my head with my blankets.
"Get up Light! We start school today!" Start school today? Oh! I sit up.
Maka: Maybe the author was trying to be clever by referencing the opening of the first chapter. Key term being "trying".
"I'm coming!" I get up. My walls are painted red , my furniture black. My comfier is black with a red creepy moon. My room has the air of creepiness.
Maka: …so are you a punk or an emo? 'Cause I'm getting some mixed messages here.
I walk into the kitchen, I sit down as Star cooks. Wonder if I'll see that boy today, who was he anyway?
Stars POV
I cook Lights food, We're starting school today! I can't wait! Maybe I'll meet that boy. Wonder what his name is.
Lights POV
Maka: The hell was the point of jumping POVs for one sentence?
Crona: …to purposely antagonize us?
Maka: Would not surprise me at all.
Star and I walk to the school in silence. Both of us more then a little nervous. We walk inside, people stare and whisper.
"Star I'm gunna go find the bathroom,"
"Oh I'll go with you,"
"No go find the class I'll catch up."
"Kay," I run off down the hall. I don't have to use the bathroom I'm just nervous. Now where was it? I think it was something around here. I turn the corner and run into someone luckily this time we don't fall. I look up to see it's the same person I ran into yesterday, now that I can see their face better. I can see they have gold eyes and a cute face. They wear a black buttoned up dress coat, with a white button up dress shirt held together with a skull, black dress pant and black dress shoes.
Maka: We know what Kid looks like, you don't have to describe him!
Crona: Wait…she actually read Soul Eater, so shouldn't she know who Kid is?
Maka: …well, considering where that plot line is probably going to go, I imagine it's for unnecessary mystery. So that the "romance" is heightened or something.
Crona: …that doesn't sound very convincing…
Maka: Well, what more can you expect with this author?
"Sorry!" I yell "I'm so sorry! I did it yesterday too! I am so sorry!"
"Its all right,"
"I`m so so so sorry! I have to go!"I run back the way I came.
Maka: See?
Crona: Would that be why she's overreacting…?
Maka: I imagine so.
Stars POV
I head towards class,but just like yesterday I hear piano and I follow it into the same room. I see the same white hair I saw yesterday. I move into the room. He pauses writes something down and plays something then writes again ,then he scribbles it out.
"Not good enough." He murmurs
"I liked it," I say before I realised I had. He turns ,my face goes red. Now I can see him clearly, his eyes are crimson, he has a white headband, a black and yellow sweater and red skinny jeans and black and yellow sneakers. "I-I'm sorry for esdroping! I'm sorry I did it yesterday! I-I'll just go!" and I run
"Wait!" He calls but still I run" What is up with her running?"
Maka: Because we need unnecessary drama, Soul! Honestly, it's like you've never been in a bad fanfic before!
No ones POV
"Hey Kid," Soul says
"Hi Soul…"
"What's up?"
"I ran into that girl again. Literally"
"Seriously? I ran into the girl I saw too."
"Wonder who they are."
Crona: "They"? So we aren't doing the surprise reveal of them being twins…? That's a bit unexpected…
Maka: Yeah, I figured they'd definitely go for that cliché.
"No clue. But hey did ya hear about the new students? They supposed to have black hair,"
"Do you think its them?"
"No reason it ain`t,"
Maka: So, it has to be the new students despite having only one physical trait to go on, a high likelihood of there being plenty of new students arriving at any given day, and the fact that there's no way they would know every student in the school?
Crona: …how convenient.
"True. Lets go." They start off to find the new students" If anyone knows where they are it'll be Black * Star, cause he'll want to find them.'
"Yeah," They find Black*Star. He has spiky blue hair and blue eyes. He wears a black tank top and white pants and blak and white shoes and fingerless gloves.
Maka: We know what he looks like!
"Yo BS," Soul says
Maka: …*snickers*
"Hey Soul, Kid," He says.
"Hello Soul,Kid,"A girl beside him,she has very long black hair tied in a high ponytail,she wears a tan tank top with a star on it,a long skirt that has a split all the way up and white boots and gloves.
Maka: Oh for the love of…why are you wasting our time with these descriptions?
"Hey Tsubaki,"
"Black *Star do you know where the new students are?"
"What? New students?"
"You didn't know? Everyone talking `bout them,"
"What? They should be talking bout me! The great Black* Star! I will find these people who threaten to show off more then me!" He runs off
"Wait Black * Star!" Tsubaki yells running after him
"Well he usually finds the people he's looking for so…"Kid says
"Fallow that idiot!"
Crona: That sounds like the title to a really cheap comedy…
They run after him. As they ran around the school they got a name:Hosito.
Maka: Oh, so it's not "Twinkleshine" or "Sparklenight" or anything like that? Colour me surprised.
"Hey! New kids come and fight the great Black * Star!" Black * Star yells. Kid sighs
"We still haven't found them,"
"Yeah," Soul turns in time to see Star turn a corner" Kid there! I saw her!"
"Come on then!" They run ,Kid taking out his skate board. They turn the corner but see no one" That way!" Kid points to a corner. Soul and him run. Kid flies as fast as possible shooting past a girl who was tying her shoe. She stood.
"There you are!" Soul yells. The girl turns,
"Uh hello?"
"What's up with you? I`ve been looking for you!"
"Do I know you?"
"You know, the piano! You ran after you said you liked my song!"
"No I th-"She thinks for a moment" Oh! I have to go!" She runs.
Maka: …why? Why do you need to run away? You're not crashing into him, it's not an embarrassing situation at all! What the hell?
Kid sees a girl up ahead
"Hey!" He calls, she turns
"Can I help you?"
"Why'd you run those time?"
"Run?"
"When we ran into each other. You ran."
"I didn't…"she pauses" Oh! I have to go!"
Maka: Why is everyone running?
Crona: I think my head's starting to hurt from all this nonsense…
Star ran fast to Light who ran equally as fast to Star.
"Someone's looking for you!" They say at the same time "Me? Really? Who?"
"A dude with black hair!" Star says
"A dude with white hair!" Light says
"Oh…"They say together" Their looking for me?" The bell ring sending student to their classes.
Crona: …they used the "talking at the same time" cliché instead…
"Come on will think about it later,"
I meet the girl and she runs again," Soul says
"Same, Lets get to class." They leave
"Hey! Come on cowards!" Black*Star yells
Lights POV
We enter the class room at Stein's call
"Introduce yourself ,"He says, we turn to the class
"You!" Two voices yell. Its the boy I ran into and the one who was looking for Star.
"Soul, Kid quiet," Stein says" Go ahead girls,"
"Hello we are the Hosito twins," we say together
"I am Light,"
"I am Star,"
"I'm a miester,"
"I'm a weapon,"
"Good go sit,"
Maka: *sighs* a) We never had to do the stupid "introduction" thing. b) If we did, I can safely bet we'd need more than that!
We sit, there's only two seats left. By the boy with black hair. Stein takes attendance." Where's Black * Star?" We hear yelling
"Being a idiot." A few people say.
"Then the usual," He continues the attendance. The black haired boy turns to me and the white haired boy looks up to Star. They stare at us.
"Uh h-hello, sorry for the hit and run," I say. Two girls watch us. One a tall one has long dirty blonde hair , she wears a red tank belly button top , a silver tie and blue jeans and black high heeled next one is shorter and has short dirty blonde hair ,she wears the same top and tie their boots are the same to the only difference is she has jean shorts.
Maka: …you know what, I'm not even going to bother anymore. You want to waste time with needless descriptions, you go right ahead.
Crona: Why do people feel the need to pad their stories out…?
"Star said you were looking for me,"
"Why did you run?"
"H-hi…"Star says nervously
"Hi. Why'd you run after hearing me play?"
"W-well.." a girl with blonde hair in pigtails watches. She wears a long black coat, white button up shirt, a green tie, a yellow vest a red plaid pleated shirts and boots.
Maka: …I don't wear the coat to school, you know.
"I kinda thought you'd be mad…"
"I'm not mad, but I was looking for you.I`m Soul,"
"Star."
"So um I'm Light,"
"Death the kid."
"Awesome name!"
"Thanks"
"Speaking of star where's Black * Star?" The pigtailed girl askes "And Tsubaki?"
"Probably lookin for Light and Star,"
"Why?" We ask
"He always wants to have a match with the new students,"
Maka: Not always. He picked a fight with Kid because everyone was talking about him, not because he was new.
"Oh , I don't think we're ready for a match yet Light," Star says
"Yeah maybe we can avoid him,"
"Impossible," They all say together
"Soul, Kid, Maka, Light, Star if you have something to discuses do it later. And Light, Star I don't think you want me telling Faith-senpai and D.J.-senpai you were talking in class." Stein says. I look at Star Dad we can handle, Mom not so much.
"Do whatever, I'm going for a smoke," Stein says and wheels his chair out.
Crona: …since when does Professor Stein leave to smoke? And I don't see him abandoning class just to do that…
"Hi I'm Maka, Souls partner." The pigtail says
"Oh hi,"
"Hey,"
"I'm Liz and this is my twin Patti. We're Kids weapons." The tall one says.
"Hiya! Hahahahaahaaha!" Patti laughs.
Both: *facepalm*
Maka: First. Friggin'. Sentence.
"Care to explain how you know Kid and Soul?"
"Lets just say we ran into each other," I say, a knock on the door gets everyone's attention and in walk two people I`d rather not see at school.
"Dad!" Star and I yell
"Light! Star!" He yells "How are my sweet adorable daughters?"
Maka: Hey! He's just like Maes Hughes from Fullmetal Alchemist! …yeah, belittling, isn't it?
"Dad!" We yell, red face, some students laugh. We run down to Dad "What are you two doing here?"
"Can't a Dad come see his daughters?"
"Not when they're in class! Mom why didn't you stop him?" Students start whispering but we pay no mind" You have to go!" we push them towards the door
"Why?" Mom asks as we push them
"Cause we said so!" We open the door and in rolls Stein
"Oh hello Faith-senpai, D.J.-senpai"
"Hi Stein!" Dad says a tad girly.
"Hey Stein," Mom says
"What are you two doing here?"
"We came to see the girls!"
"I see, well your welcome to stay if you wish,"
Crona: …that's not normal, is it?
Maka: No, not at all.
"No!"
"Thank you Stein!" Dad and Mom fallow him in. Sadly we fallow, we start towards Kid and the others" Oh no you don't! I came to see my girls!" Dad says grabbing us.
"Dad let go! Come on Dad! Mom help!"
"Sorry girls" He says simply
"Dad!" people openly laugh not trying to hide it, We look up to Kid and the others their trying not to laugh, well at least their putting in effort. Kid sends me a look of pity. We give trying to get away and sit on the floor by Mom and Dads legs.
Maka: …in fact, it's kind of creepy.
Crona: And needlessly embarrassing, it seems…
Maka: That too…
Finally the bell rings and we`re out of there before Dad can catch us. We lean against a wall and sigh.
"That was the most humiliating thing they could do!" I yell
"How could Mom let Dad do that?"
"So you're parents are gay?" a voice beside us say. Making us jump
"Kid! Don't do that!" I put a hand over my heart
"Sorry ,so are they?"
"Only our Dad .Mom and him aren't together. Its only a nickname. Unfortunately. We don't have a Mom so he took her place."
"Oh you have a mom? Neither does Maka."
Maka: Hey! That's personal! Don't go discussing that with two total strangers!
"Did she die?"
"No, my Dad cheated on her so she left."
"Are you mad at her?"
Crona: …wait, why would you be mad at her?
Maka: *teeth grit* Very good question.
"No I`m mad at my dad."
"Why?"
"Because he cheated on her."
Maka: Fucking DUH!
"Right…we don`t have to worry but that. Mom was his only one even now he promised never to love another girl because he says it`ll feel like cheating."
"So dedicated…"Liz trails off
Maka: And realistic! *rolls eyes*
"Yep" We go outside. Suddenly someone in front of me. A bluenette and a raven haired. This must be Black*Star and Tsubaki.
Crona: …"bluenette"?
"Hey! I finally I found you! You can but not for long `cause I the great Black * Star wants a battle!" He yells
"No," I say and start walking he block my way
"Scared you can't beat the mighty Black*Star?"
"No I just don't to fight."
"Sure! That's the most used excuse! Your just scared!Don`t worry the great Black*Star will let you keep your dignity!"
"Look I`m not scared!Why don`t you just go!"
"Sure your not!Haha!Its okay to be scared!"I clench my and ground my teeth,anger burning in my eyes.
"Ligh,"Star warns.I close my eyes and take a deep breath and turn
"Yeah you run!"And I snap .I turn quickly and punch him in the face,he stumbles others stare at me
"So fast…"
"Listen, you freak!I don`t wanna fight,so get yourself centered ass away from me before I cut open you`re throat!"Black *Stars face gets serous.
"You dare threaten me?I`ll kill ya!"he swings and I duck.
"That's it!"I throw out a hand and he flies back,he flips and lands he charnges as soon as he lands. He swings over and somehow without touching him I block,finally he gets so mad he tackels me to the ground.I punch him and flip wrestle on the ground rolling towards the stairs which we fall down,but still we fight.
Maka: Soooooo, what was the point to this again?
Crona: To show that Sue number 1 has an anger management problem?
Maka: …can you even tell the difference between the two Sues?
Crona: Not really…
"Hey!"A voice shouts and suddenly we`re lifted into the person who picked us up has blue skin,dread locks and wears a t-shirt and baggy jeans. "Fighting without a teacher present is against the rules!"
"What?"I yell"Thanks a lot Black*Star because of you I`m getting in troble on my first day!"
"You challenged me!"
"I did not!I didn`t wanna fight,but did you listen?Noooo!"
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah!"
Maka: Apparently, she's actually seven years old.
We try to hit each other,but the dude holding us hit us together
"Ow!"We yell holding our heads.
"Stop fighting!I was never the type of man who over looked fights when I was a live!"What?He`s a zombie?Oh right!I remember there`s a zombie dude in Soul eater he`s like Sid or something!
Crona: …author, can you please explain the point of making her a reader of the series if you're not going to use the knowledge she could have?
"I`m taking you to the new teachers!"New teachers?Oh shit!
"No!No!Anyone else!Please not them!"
"Whats up with you?Their just new teachers."Black*Star says
"One is my father!"
"Oh shit."
Crona: Wait, her parents are teachers too?
Maka: Then what were they supposed to be teaching when they were being creepy with their kids?
"Yeah!"Star and the others watch us "Guys help!He`s taking me to Dad!"
"Oh no,"Star says"Dear shinigami please protect her!"
"Star!"
"Bye!"She yells smiling
"Hey!When I get home your so dead!"
Sis dropped us in a room
Crona: I thought you just left your sister…
"Stay here."
"Sid-sensei a big guy like me can`t get in trouble!"Sid just walks out
"Great,this is just great!You know this is your fault right?"I ask crossing my arms over my chest.
"Its your fault as much as its mine!"
"Is not you started it!"
"You punched me first!"
"You called me a coward!"
"Did not! I just said you were scared!"
"Same thing!"
"Is not!"
"Is too!"
"Grrr!"
"Grrr!"
Maka: Shut up! Dear God, it's like her presence alone makes Black*Star ten times more annoying than he usually is!
Crona: She is a Sue, after all…
We tackel each other "Amit it!You started it!"
"You amit it!"The door opens
"I have nothing to amit! Its your fault!"
"No its not!"
"Is too!"
"yes!"
Crona: What are they supposed to be "amitting", anyway?
"Am-"we get hit on the head"Ow!"We hold our sore heads
"Why`d you do-"I look up"Oh hi Dad ,Mom"I say smiling just cross their arms and stare at me angerly.I sigh my smiling fadeing.I look they know how to make someone fell bad.I sit qiutly waiting for the blabk*Star.
"Hey!Teacher dudes!The great Black*Star demands you let him out of here!"He yells I grab his arm and pull him to the ground
"Shut up you ideot!"
"Why don`t you?"
"Hey don`t blame me when you get into shit because you cant shut your trap!"
"Why you-"
"Are you don`t yet?"Mom askes
Crona: …I can't even think of anything clever for that.
"yes sir,"We say
"So what happned ?"Dad askes
"Well he called me a coward-"
"She punched me and-"We start talking at the same time
"Quiet!"we fall silent"Your punishment is cleaning the school."Dad says
Maka: Uh…what about something simple, like…detention?
"But Dad its huge!"
"Theres no way!"
"Do it."
"Yessir…"We stand and left us to *Star sits
"Hey Ego boy get your ass cleaning."
"This is below a god like can do it."My eye twitches.I pick up a bucket of water and chuck it at him."Hey!"I stick out my tonge,he picks up his bucket and throws it on me.I shrick.
Crona: *winces* That sounds potentially fatal…
Maka: One can hope.
"Hey!"he smirks , I glare at him then pick up a soap bottle and skurt him
Maka: …do you even care about trying to make this seem good?
, he does the end up having a soap war.
"Light,Black*Star hows the cl-"Dad `re on the floor out of breathe and the place is covered in bubbles."What happned?"We point at each other
"They…did…it…"Then we fall to sleep.
Maka: …so, what, was that supposed to be them getting along or something? I really have no clue what the hell is going on.
"Hi guys!" Star yells as we walk towards the school.
"Hey!" Maka calls
"Hey,"Soul says
"Hello Star, light." kid says
"Hey Kid,hey guys"I say
"H-hi,"a small voice says,we turn
'Oh hey Crona!"Maka says
Maka: *twitch*
"H-hi Maka,"Crona has short uneven lavender hair,and wears a black dress.
Both: It's a robe.
"Crona this is Star and Light," Liz says
"Hi!"
"Hey,"
"H-hello,"a black blob popped out of Cronas back
"Hey!look more tiny tits!"The thing yells
"Tiny,"Star starts
"Tits,"I finish
"Creep!"We yell and .
Crona: …and what? Yell and do a silly dance? Yell and convert to Scientology? Yell and spontaneously combust? …can it be that last one?
Crona goes jaw drops. "Oh sorry Crona!"We yell running to him.
"I-its okay,"
"Ow!Fuckin bitches!"
Crona: Yell and hit me, apparently…
Maka: For once, I agree with Ragnarok.
"ragnarok please stop,"Crona say"Huh?Shut up!"It pinches Crona`s nose.
"No!Stop!I ccan`t deal with this!"
"Ragnark stop picking on Crona!"Maka says
"Shut up Bookworm1"
"Maka-chop!"She hits him"Sorry Crona!"
"Its s`okay,"Crona says a little dizy
Maka: Oh for-it was one time!
"So how`d it go last night?"Liz asks
"Black*Star and I ended up having a soap war,"
"Which I so won!"
"Did not BS!"
"Did too!"
"Did not!"
"Grrr!"
"Grrr!"
Maka: For God's sake, shut the hell up!
Someone clears their throat,we look up
"Oh hi Dad,Mom."I say
"Your not fighting again are you,"
"noo,"We say sweetly
"Uh huh,"
"So Dad what ya doing?"Star asks
"We were walking to work when we heared Light and Black* are these you`re new friends?"
"Yeah Dad,Mom this is Maka,Liz,Patti,Tsubaki,Black*Star,"Star says
"Kid,Soul and Crona and uh that thing on Crona`s shoulders is Ragnarok."I say
"You Light,Star now that I look at you I`ve relized something,"Kid says looking us over
"Yeah?"
" NOT SYMATRICAL!"
Both: Of course.
he yells "Light your hairs too messy!And why on the left arm do you have that pocket yet not on the right!And that tie!The belt!Why?And Star your outfit only has one bow!And the bottens!The belt!Why aren`t you two symmetrical?"
"Uh what?"We say,while the others sigh.
"Let me fix it!"He to fix my hair,I doudge
"Hey!"I yell
"Let me fix it!"I tries again,I grab his hands as he wrestles with me
"Get your hands off my daughter!"Dad yells ,him and Mom try to grab Kid but he pushes them away
"Just let me fix it!"
"No!Kid stop!"
"It`ll only take a minute!Then you`ll be perfitly symmetrical!"
"But you`re not symatr ical!"He falls to the ground
"I`m trash!Asymatrical garbage!I should die!"Star,Dad,Mom and me stare at him
Maka: Does anyone even try to factor in Kid's development when they write?
Crona: And still, why are they acting like this is new? Light supposedly read the series, and both their parents are former students and current teachers! Why wouldn't they know these things?
"Is he all right?"Star askes
"Is anyone around here okay?"Liz says simply
"…Oh."
Maka: It's sad how Liz has a point there.
"Kyahahahaha!"Patti laughs
Crona: …should we-
Maka: Don't bother, it's pretty much expected by this point.
"I`m not worthy to be a shinigami!I`m pathetic!"
"You got that right Kid,"I say
Maka: Bitch.
"Wah!"He bawls.I sigh and roll my eyes.I kneel next to him
"Oh come on Kid you`r not garbage,"
"I-I`m not?"He looks at me with tear filled …he really is cute!
"Of course not!You`re a shinigami!Now get up before I Light-chop you!"
Crona: …uh-oh.
Maka: Your entire family will BURN for that!
I say holding up a jumps up"Good boy."
"Looks like we have another Maka,"Soul says
"What?"I ask
"Maka does the Maka-chop,"Tsubaki explains
Maka: Explaining your poor attempt at humour won't automatically make it funny!
"-chop!"She hits Soul hard in the head
"Ow!Fuck Maka!"Soul yells.
Crona: …why'd she do that?
Maka: Because the author has no originality whatsoever, that's why!
"Well we gotta go,"Dad says"Have a good day girls,"He hugs us
"See ya,have fun"Mom says hugging us
"Bye!Dad don`t forget lunch!"Star calls
"Lunch?Oh damn!"He hits himself in the head"Thanks Star!"He runs sighs
"Later!"He runs after Dad.
"So ya guys gonna take a mission anytime soon?"Soul askes
"A mission?"Star and I ask
"Yeah so you can start collecting souls,"Maka says
"I don`t know…I mean its only our third day in Death city,"I say
"You`ll do fine!"Maka says
Maka: "I say that despite not knowing anything about your fighting abilities or any experiences you've had with pre-Kishins!"
Crona: Maybe she's secretly hoping they'll get themselves killed?
Maka: …this other me is smarter than I expected.
"I don`t know,"Star says
"Don`t worry!The great Black*Star believes in you!"
"Shut it BS."
Maka: You got that right, this is BS…
"Are we ready Light?"
"Maybe…"
"You`re ready,go on,"Kid says
"Yeah,"liz agrees
"I agree too,"Tsubaki says
"Y-yeah,"Crona says
"…`ll think 'bout it during class,"I say
"well we better get going then"
Maka: So, enjoy your gratuitous cameo, Crona?
Crona: It could've gone a lot worse, I suppose…wait, how can you be sure I won't come back?
Maka: …are you saying you want to be in this?
Crona: …never mind…
We head to I talk to Star.
"Star maybe we should take a mission,"
"But Light do you think we`re tready?"
"I don`t know,but the guys do so…"
"If we do we`ll have to take a easy one,"
"Yeah…So do you want to?"
"…sure,"
"Okay,I`ll find Kid and he can help us pick out a mission."I run off to find Kid.I run down the stairs and right into fall "Sorry"I look up"Oh!Kid!"I jump up,a little red faced."Sorry"I help him up
Maka: Really? You're not even going to try to do something different? Just crashing into him again?
Crona: Maybe it's supposed to be a character trait? Or a running gag?
Maka: A running gag is supposed to be funny, remember?
*SELF-DEPRECIATVE HUMOUR AWAY!*
Both: WAH!
Maka: Why does that keep popping up?
'You said that,"
"Oh righ sorry,"My face goes even redder as I relised I did it again"Sorry."my face turns cherry" I did it again sorry!Damn it!Sorry!Sorry!Fuck!So-"
"Light,calm, down,"
"Sorry,"I say quietly,my face super red
Maka: And people say you're apologetic, Crona.
Crona: *blushes*
"Whats up?"
"Oh right!Star and I want you to help us pick out a mission!"
" go,"I nod and we walk away
Stars POV
Light runs off to find Kid.I wonder can we really be ready for this?Or are we rushing into it?
"Star?"I look up "Whats wrong?"
"Soul,its just Light and I desided to take a I`m wondering if we can really do it,"
"I think you can."
"Really?"
"Yeah,Light looks pretty strong and fast and you're her weapon.I think you can do it,"
Maka: …is Soul in on the "letting them get killed" plan?
Crona: If it makes you happy…
"But I`m scared."
"Everyone is on their first even I get a little worried every now and then and I fought Asura."
Crona: …so, despite Light reading the manga, this is the anime continuity?
Maka: I think we can pretty much toss that subplot out the window by now, Crona.
"I guess its normal for everyone to get scared,"
" if you still don`t believe me then here,"he takes something out of his four point star takes out my other clips and puts them in my hair."For good luck,"My face goes bright red, I touch them
"W-why would you give them to me?"
"Didn`t I tell ya?For good luck."
"T-thank you…"
"No prob,do you best on the mission kay?Don`t worry `bout winning just think about comin home alive,"I nod"Well I got to go,"He turns
"Oh bye…"
"Bye"He turns his head"Star you better come back."
"I will."
"Good,"he leaves,I reach up and touch clips would he give me these?Why did he even have them?
Maka: Token romance that isn't even close to how an actual romance would go, of course!
"Star?You okay?"I turn
"Hi Light,Kid,"
"Youre face is you have a fever?"Light checks my forehead
"I`m thinking."
"Okay,lets go pick out a mission,"I nod and we walk to the mission looked over them,an arm acrossed him chest,holding up the other arm as he holds his chin as he takes down three.
"These would be the best for your first mission."We look at them"The first choice.A group of three kids have started murdering people,for vigerous reason."
Crona: …"vigorous reasons"? What, is it good exercise?
"Three?Shouldn`t we go for one with only one person first?'I ask,he puts it back
"Next.A lady has been kidnapping and murdering kids for about a year,"
"shes escaped the cops for a year?She`s to use top killing,"light says he puts it on the board
"Lastly.A man has started raping girls late at night and started killing them latly,"
Crona: *twitch*
Maka: Of course. Because if we need a token villain, he needs to be a rapist. Why not?
"Well its only one,"I say
"and he hasn`t been doing it for a long time,"Light says
"Guess will do that one,"we take it
"Thanks Kid!"Light says smiling
"No problem ,good luck Light,"
"Thanks!"
Maka: Hmm, two underage girls going after a rapist. What could possibly go wrong?
A man corners a girl and pins her against the wall,she screams and he laughs
"Hey!"light calls,the man looks at us
"Go,"I say to the girl,she runs
"We`re gunna take you`re soul,"He smiles and charges,we doudge"Star scythe mode!"
"Right!"I turn into a scythe
Maka: *facepalm*
Crona: …just to clarify, Dark Arms usually have a theme to them. Tsubaki can turn into a chain-scythe, shuriken, smoke bomb, knife, and sword all because they're weapons a ninja like Black*Star would use. She didn't just pick the weapons out of a hat or anything.
Maka: But following a theme and not just turning into whatever you wanted to wouldn't be Sueish enough.
"Hm…she turns into a two will be wonderfull to try,"
"Keep dreamin dude!"Light yells and swings me at him,he runs and jumps swinging me he blocks us,she turns and `s arm is a blade,he runs at us an dswings,cutting Light.
"Light!You okay?"
'Yeah,"She runs at swings sending us lets me go.I turn to my human picks her up by hair.
"Gah!""Hehehe,you will be most enjoyable,"
Maka: …do you have any idea what just happened?
Crona: Not really…
"Don`t you dare!"His smile widens as he pins her,holding her wrists to unzips her sweater and it falls off reveling her v-neck red has a chopper cross and skull and of the colors are red and her wrist are thick black spiked bracelets.
Maka: Wow, you're describing what she's wearing when she's about to be raped. This author really needs to sort out their priorities.
"Light!"I yell and run towards them he pushes me back
"I`m gunna fuck you,then you`re sister,"
"If you so much as touch her I`ll kill you!"He laughs.I stare wide eyed as his hand slides down her froze my body,I can`t move I can`t do anything.I knew we weren`t rerady!But Light told me otherwise,and Soul he believed in me!I promised I`d come home!He gave me the clips for good luck and I can`t even do anything!Tears fall from my eyes,he unbottens Lights jeans and starts to pull them down.
Maka: Do something, you stupid bitch! Don't just sit there crying your eyes because "oooh, I can't do anything"! How is it that a turn-into-whatever-you-want Dark Arm is so weak?
*silence*
Maka: …that question wasn't rhetorical, Crona.
Crona: I-I know, I just know you won't like the answer…
Maka: …you're right, I don't.
"Get your fuckin hands off me!"She yells and knees him in a place the sun don`t staggers back
"Fuckin bitch!"
"You perv!I`m gunn fuckin distroy you!"Rage flamed in her eyes she punched him and he flew back a good 15 feet
Crona: Wasn't this fic supposed to be rated T…?
"Star,"
"R-right,"I turn into a short sward
"Its no use,not even bullets effect me."
"Then it's a good I`m not using a gun,"Light says and cutting him in two.
Maka: …*stands up* TRY!
I turn back
"…I sorta don `t wanna eat his was a creep."
"Just do it."Light says"Shinigami I`m fuckin pissed!I want to kill him 10x over!"She kicks a street light creating a giant puts on her sweater.
Crona: …*squints* She kicked a street light, which created a giant that put her sweater on for her? …I think that may be the most ridiculous thing I've ever read.
I take the red ball that is a kishin cold on my fingers.I open my mouth and swollow slides down slimly,its freezing giving me cold chills.
"Hm…slimy yet satisfying,"
Maka: You do not get to quote Lion King in my presence, bitch!
"Come on lets go,"
"Kay!I skip along beside street light falls over.
Maka: …so, despite her sister almost getting raped and her having a crying fit over supposedly not being able to do anything, now she's OK? …I hate Sues. I really do.
Crona: How is it that they keep being made despite everyone hating them so much…?
Maka: I'd rather not decrease my faith in humanity more by answering that question…
"Here,"I hold out Souls clip to me.
"What?"He asks
"I`m returning them,"He smirks and stands he takes them from me but instead of putting them in his pocket he puts them in my hair
"I gave them to you,They ment a lot to me, so now they should mean a lot to you,"
"But why give them to me?We just met,"
Maka: A valid question! Soul, your response?
"I think you should have if you keep them you have to keep your promise,"
"Mu promise?"
"To always come back from a mission,"I stare at him then smile
"Okay I promise."He smile
Maka: …a really stupid, nonsensical reason! Why am I not surprised?
"Good,"The baretts shine even though the lights not hitting them
"Come on Soul its time for class!"
"Kay,"We walk to class
Lights POV
I run down the hall wristling something I never hey I just completed my first mission give me a break!
Crona: …if I tried to figure out what she was trying to say there, I think my head would just hurt even more than it already does…
In my happy fit I forget to watch where I`m going and I run straight into Kid
Maka: Guess it is a running gag.
"Sorry Kid!"I say smiling
"Its all `re happy."
"Course!I just got back from my first mission!"He smiles
" here!"He pulls out a small box
"Whats this?
"For completing your first mission."I blink then take the box.I open it,in it's a diamond skull necklace.I look at him
"Really?For me?"
"Yes,"He takes it and puts the necklace on face grows red
"T-thanks,"I hug him
"Welcome,"We smile "I thought you deserved it so…"
"Thanks a lot,"We start walking to class
Maka: OK, why are they giving away stuff like this? To two people they've known for all of a few days?
Crona: Poorly written romance.
Maka: …I meant besides that.
Crona: …no idea.
Sun:Hi!I`m the writer of this story(Gothicangel)I`m doing this …. What do you call this little chatthingy?
Maka: Oh not this again…
Crona: "Gothicangel"? …this person didn't try with anything, did she?
Star:its called a notice
Sun:oh!thanks!So I`m doing this because I just relized I haven`t been doing the disclaimer a-
Maka:You haven`t been doing the diclaimer?
Sun:No I haven`t and I k-
Soul:But you don`t own not cool Sun.
Crona: "That's my catchphrase, by the way. Did you know that?"
(glares at Soul)
Sun:Shut it!Ididn`t mean to fo-
Liz:You know if you don`t do the disclaimer you could be charged as playdgerism.
Crona: "Playdgerism"? …I can't decide if that sounds like something involving playing or a really strange disease…
(right eye twitches)
Sun:Stop interrupting me!I don`t like it!I didn`t mean to forget!I just did you don't need to freak!So stop going on about it!
Black * Star:Geez no need to freak we were just pointing out you don`t own all of you should be watching me!(I fall over)
Stien:I think you killed her.
Both: YAY!
Kid:Not we killed the writer then the story can`t continue,and murder can`t be covered up.
Sun:KID!(glomps Kid)
Stien:Or not.
Both: BOO!
Sun:OMG!Death the Kid!I love you!
Maka: Of course you do, mindless fangirl. Of course you do.
Liz:Looks like someones got a girlfriend!
Kid:G-girlfriend?No!
Light:Let go of Kid!(I glare at Light)
Sun:Shuddup I could kill you.I made you.
Maka: Please do, your credibility would jump up quite a bit if you did. …it'd still be next to nothing, but at least it'd jump.
Light:Let Kid go!
Stien: (Sighs)Sun you have to do the disclaimer.
Sun:Oh!Right!I do not own Soul eater it all belongs to Atsushi Okubo!But I do own Faith,D.J.,Light and Star oh and any others...
Light:Let go of kid!
Sun:Bite me!
Maka: Right back at'cha.
Star and I have been here in Death city for a month,we`ve collected 3 and the others welcomed us into the group quickly.
Crona: I don't know, they seemed pretty friendly already…
"Hi Shinigami-sama!"Star says happily
"Hey"I say
"Yo!Yo!"He says in his funny voice.
"So why`d you call us here?"For some strange reason he called us into his death room.I`m kinda wondering why.
"I have a mission I want you to go on!T,Sanitin bloodthirsty spian!"
Maka: …did you catch any of that?
Crona: Um…maybe it…no, I've got nothing.
"Oh Spain!I`ve always wanted to go there!"
"Yeah we`ll take it,"
"O~kay!Good luck!"We walk out of the Death room.
Maka: Oh, she said Spain.
Crona: …why does this seem familiar?
It`s now night and Star and I are chasing after .
Maka: …chasing after…?
Crona: Patrick Bateman? Conan O'Brien? A Knight who says Ni?
He runs into a dead end.
"Star scythemode!"
"Right!"She jumps and I catch her,spinning her then leaning her on my shoulder.(kinda like Maka does in the first episode)
Maka: Oh, nice of you to acknowledge that you're blatantly copying me, you hack!
"A weaponmiester huh?Why do you guys get to kill?"I run at him and kill him
"Because we have people to protect."Stars head and arms apper out of the scythe and she eats the soul.
"Yummy!"She turns human"Lets go home and quickly get a new mission!"She starts to skip away
"Wait Star."I say suddently,a strange paules runs through the air
"Whats up?"I stare towards town square,somethings telling me to go there.I close my eyes.I concintrate on the stange feeling in the eyes snap ooen and they don`t look like my normal `re red with black circling my pupil.I see in red,theres a lot of people in town square.
Crona: *shivers* Changing eye colours…
Maka: I'm impressed that she can see what her eyes look like. I'm also confused by it, but mostly impressed.
"Is there a gathering tonight?"
"Uh yeah a do you want to go?"I focus on the souls
"No, I scence a miester and a weapon with the human `s no one in that group that would make Shinigami-sama`s list."
"Sooo maybe someones just havin fun?"
" lets just check it out in case."
"Okay."We take off towards the square
Crona: …wait a minute…
"No way..."We satre at the square buts its empty
"Where`d they go?" Star askes
"I don`t know."We enter the town in the middle of the room is a girl,she`s younger then us by at least 4 years and we`re has shoulder length spiky purple hair,in her hair is white bunny ears on a wears a pint t-shirt and a puffy light blue skirt,white knee shorts poke out from under it and sneakers.
"Huh?Its just a girl,"Star says in wonder
"Thats not definitly a miester and weapon souls here."
"Hi!"The girls says smilng
"Which means the weapons inside her."
"What?"
Both: …WHAT?
"Faith-senpai!"Spirit and Stien run into Faiths house"D.J.-senpai!"
"Oh hello!I just made cookies for when the girls returns,want to try one?3"
"Uh..."Stien and Spirirt look at each other"No thanks"
"You`re so mean!"
"Oh shut up Faith,I`ll eat one."D.J. takes a cookie
"Yay!Thank you!"Faith glomps D.J.
"Yeah yeah now get off."D.J. pushes Faith away but he has a small smile
"So what did you boys want?"
"The demon blade it appered...again."
Maka: Let me reiterate: WHAT?
Crona: It appeared again? But…there's only one Demon Sword! I should know, I'm literally stuck with him! How can he have appeared again?
Stars POV
"How can it be inside her body?"I yell I look at Light and for the first time notice her ?How?
"It just is...Its comein."A poof and a purple thing popped out of her backIts hits her head
"Hey breanna!Did ya tell Lady theia `bout them?Can we kill them?"
"I haven`t told her yet..."She says in a way that makes me think of a rich kid."Can we kill them?"She pauses"All right,lets go Rem."
Crona: …so, she's a combination of me and Misa Amane? …that's just terrible.
"The thing on her back turns into a shot sword.
"Star!Chain scythe mode."
"Right!"I jump and feel the sensation of turning to a weapon shoot through my catches me.
"Oh!Cool!"the girl whom I`m guessing is Breanna yells acting more like a kid."Wonder who will win."
"You`ve killed people not on Shinigami-sama`s list,you are here by marked as a target!"Light says readying to charge.
Maka: Meisters don't get to make that decision, idiot!
"But she told me to kill them,and she told me to kill you."Then she charges with amazing speed,My blade blocks jumps back,Light throws one of my blades and I wrap around a jumps at us,Light jumps out of the way and pulls on me,I fly through the air cutting Breanna and landing neatly in Lights hand.I stare at the wound,It bleeds but thats not why I`m staring I`m staring because its purple.
"What?"I yell
"Yeah, my blood is purple."She charges again
*silence*
Crona: …heh…hehe…hehehe…
Maka: …Crona?
Crona: *starts laughing hysterically* P-P-P-P-Purple blood? *laughs louder, pounding on his tray with his fist*
Maka: …*edges away from Crona*
"Scythe mode!"In a poof I`m now a uses me as a lever and jumps off the ground over her head then Light turns and cuts her.
"Eh?I can`t cut very far."
"Thats not enough to hurt me."
"Whats with that?"I yell
"I think her blood is her weapon and it hardened stoping the to cut her is worthless,resonance won`t work either I I could shoot my her soul into her I might beable to do some damage but I can`t do that."
Crona: *still laughing* Who-Who-Who-Who can take her seriously? "Oh, my blood is purple? Fear me?" *face lands on tray, still laughing*
Maka: …I don't think I get the joke…
"Lady Theia,do you really want them dead?"she askes"Can`t I play with her?"a pause "Rem Shock resonance."
Crona: *without looking up* Sh-sh-sh-Shock Resonance? *laughs louder and louder*
Ragnarok: …OK, even I'm starting to get a little freaked out now…
She holds up her sword and swings towards us,a eltric shock shot towards us and we go flying.I fly out of Lights hit the floor hard,my heads creaks against the wall blood warms my hair.
"Star!"She yells
"Don`t worry `bout me!We`re in a battle!"
"But...but..."
"Light!"I yell as Breanna attacks she turns just in throw out her hands and Breanna goes flying.
"How`d you do that?Are you a witch?"
"Hell no!"
Crona: *slowly stops laughing* Hehe…heh…hoo…
*Crona sits back up, wiping at his eyes*
Maka: …you OK?
Crona: Y-Yeah…sorry, that was just…I don't know what came over me…
Maka: Right…also, it wouldn't surprise me at all if Light turned out to be half-witch or something…
Light hollors and turns towards me and I stare frozen as she swings.I slam my eyes splatters across my face eccept I`m not hurt.I open my eyes to see Light on the ground and a giant cut that rips from chest to stomach
Maka: …right, this author's made it on my shitlist. If I have to explain why to anyone at home…well, I shouldn't have to, it's friggin' obvious!
"Light!"I scream my voice echoing.I fall to the ground,tears pouring down my face"Why?Why do you always protect me?Why can`t I protect you for once?Why am I so weak?"
Maka: Because someone has to fill in the whiny angsty spot that I filled when this actually-
Crona: But you do not whine!
Maka: …I know, I'm going by this idiot author's thought process.
"I`m gunna kill you now,"Breanna swings
"WHY CAN`T I KEEP MY PROMISES?"Suddently my clips glow and 8 lights flew aroung me then 8 fancey fairy like creatures apper.(think Orihime from Beach)
Maka: …are you serious?
Crona: …where did Soul even find clips that could do that?
"Hi!"A green girl says.
"Who are they?"Breanna I know!
Crona: …well, if Breanna knows, why is she asking?
"Un hi?"I ask my voice shaking
"We are your 8 star constilations!I am Gemini,"The green one says
"Libra,"Says a boy dressed in orange.
"Capricon!"A yellow girl says cheerfully as if we weren`t in a life and death situation.
"Pisces,"this time its a very pale boy says
"Virgo,"A red head girl says
"Aquarius!"A girl in blue cheers
"Scorpio."a orange boy says
"Aries."A very very very pale boy says
"Okay..."
Maka: So, can someone explain to me why a Dark Arm that can turn into pretty much any weapon needs these…things? …anyone? …no? Figures.
"We`re here to help!"Aquarius says smiling
"Just say freemitime then our names!Piscies,Aquarius and I ,Scopio and libra make a shiuld, Virgo and Aries attack,"Gemeni explains
Crona: …free-my-time? Why that?
Maka: And what do Pisces, Aquarius, and Gemini do? Kind of need to include that.
"Uh hello?Can i kill you yet?"Breanna askes and swings
Maka: Please do.
"Say it!"
"Freemitime Capricorn,Scorpio,Libra!"They glow and form a triangle shiuld which Breanna`s sword jumps back"Freemitime Virgo,Aries!"They at her in a flash of light,they fly around her cutting her.
"Shock resonance!"The shock hits them stars fly back hard.
"Wow,"They say
Maka: Wow indeed.
"Freemitime Virgo,Aries!"Again they swings sending them fling .She walks up to me
"Those fiaries are annoying!"She raises her sword and brings it down over my head,a blade smashes through the door and goes through stars turn into clips in my blade gets pulled out and Breanna jumps jumps through the door holding a turns to his human form besisde him.
"Mom!Dad!"I yell
Maka: *monotone* Oh my goodness, they rescued her, what a shock, they'll be OK now.
"Star!"They see Light"Light!"Mom bends down next to me and looks at takes off his coat and lays it on Light.
"So thats the demon blade,"Dad says
"Yeah,"Mom turns to a twirls him expertly
"You can block her right?"
"Course I look after you don`t I?"A smile speads across Dads face
"True."Breanna charges and Dad blocks her then throws her to the ground placing his hand on her stomach
"Soul wave!"
"Gah!"
"Wow...Dad must be powerful to beable to shoot soul waves..."Breanna`s blood floats into the air
"Blood dager!"The blood shoot at Dad,he easily dougde
"Hm..."Breanna charged again,Dad doudge and shot her again with his soul and nerrowly avoided the blood forced Breanna outside."Double plam soul wave!"He uses both hands on her ,she screams
"You ideot!"Rem shocked her again,she falls to the ground and started screaming.
"Soul regacton."Mom a giant wush of power washes over a girl appers in the sky.
Crona: Soul…reaction? Soul…mega-action? …Soul Megatron?
Maka: Yeeeeeees, please.
"Whats that?"I yell
"A witch."The witch uses her magic and she and Breanna didapper.
Maka: OK, I don't even know what they look like, and I can tell you that they are anything but dapper.
"Star,have you been waiting out here?"Soul askes sitting beside `re outside of the nurses office and Lights haveing sugery.
"Y-yeah..."I say sniffling.
"It wasn`t long ago I was in there because I got cut with a demon blade because I protected Maka."
Maka: "How oddly coincidental that it happened to you. It's almost like some completely unoriginal force made it happen!"
"Really?"
"Yeah,don`t worry Light`ll be -sensei might be a little weird but he`s a great docter."I nod"Star...somethings bugging you."
"Its my fault...she was trying to protect can`t I ever truely protect her?Why does she end up protecting me?"
"Star,"
"Everytime!I can`t do anything!I`m so weak and she`s so...so..."
"Star."
"So...So strong!Why can`t I-"
"Star!"Soul cups my face goes red"What are you saying?"
"I`m saying I want to get stronger so no one has to protect me,so I can protect them.I don`t want them getting hurt anymore..."
"I think if you really want to you can be strong enough.I already think you are."
Crona: …is Soul talking to someone else entirely now?
"But if I`m strong then why can`t I ever do anything?Why does Light always have to save me?"
"...Maybe you just need practice."
Maka: …I got nothing, that was just a really stupid statement.
"Y-yeah maybe."I look at the door"I hope shes okay..."
"She is."The door opens and Stien walks stand
"Star,Soul didn`t expect to see ya here."
"Um Stien-sensei hows Light?"I ask he smiles
"She doing fine,you can go in if you want."
"Thank you!"We run inside
"So tell us the truth."Dad says appering from nowhere.
"We know you`re lieing."Mom adds
"Is it Soul all over again?"Spirit askes
" demon blades blood mixed with hers."
Maka: Of course it is!
Crona: *snerk* B-But…wh-what could the p-p-purple b-blood do…oh geez, I can't take this!...
I stare at Light unconcious face and tears come to my eyes.I feel strong arms around me and the warmth of face goes red but I bury my head in his sweater and te doors are thrown open and we jump apart.
"Light!Are you okay?"Black*Star runs in"Wake up!I`m here!I`ll give you energy just by being here!"
"Star-chop!"I hit him with a ,
Maka: Damn right you hit him with nothing! Because you didn't hit him! Because you didn't blatantly rip me off even more!
Tsubake,Kid,Liz,Patti and Crona walk in.
"Shinigami Black*Star have some contral."Maka says"Star I want to say I know how hard it is,I was in the same position when Soul was injured by Crona."
"S-sorry..."Crona says
"Its s`kay."Soul answer
Maka: Oh, look, you did come back, Crona! And for token guilt, too!
Crona: Don't really see the point when they've apparently replaced me…
"I want you to know we`re all here for you."
"Thanks Maka."I rub my eyes.I look over to Kid,he hasn`t takin his eyes off seems more worried then the whats in the bag...
"Uh Star."He says
"Yeah?"
"Did anyone...tell you how Lights doing?"I stare at him
"Yeah Stien-sensei said she was fine."
"Oh good."He says in relief.
"Oh my is there a party going on?"A lady walks has chin length brown hair,the edges a blue,its covering one wears a blue dress under a lab gloves cover her hands and blue knees boots her feet.
"Eh!"I say in surprize
"Hello Theis-sensei!"Maka,Tsubaki and I say stares at her wide eye`...Theia-sensei`s is the nurse aid.
Maka: McSeriously?
"It seems Light got in a bit of trouble."
"yeah...its my fualt."I say sadly
"Don`t worry Star you`ll get stronger.I have work so you can stay as long as you like."We nod and she walks behind a curtin.
"Guys lets go...Light won`t be waking up right now so..."Liz trials off.
"yeah."
"Maka come with me?"Patti askes
"Sure."The walk outLiz and Crona follow Black * Star and Tsubaki
"Kid are you coming?"Soul askes
"just a secound please."we nod
"Come on Star."I leave with walks up to Light and puts the bag on the brushes the hair out of her face
"Get better soon."He hugs her then stares at her and cups her face"Good byr."Then her leaves.
Maka: Just to double-check: has anyone explained why these romances are going on?
Crona: Not as far as I know…
Maka: Didn't think so.
No ones POV
"Eruka,Free."A voice turn quickly
"No..."Eruka steps back and Free shiulds her.
Maka: *sighs* Big surprise…
"Hello again!"Breanna says happily.
"Breanna."Free says he looks at the two people with her,their faces are shadowd but he knows who they are."Shun, do you want?"
Crona: Who's Shun? …wait, another one?
"You remember Lady Theia?"Breanna askes
"How could we not?"

" are demon you work for us?"
"Why should we?We`re free from Medusa."
"You remember those snakes in your body Eruka?Well Lady Their ahs something in you too placed by Medusa."

The lights slowly came back on as Maka flopped back in her seat, sighing while rubbing her forehead.
"…how can any one person be so blatantly unoriginal?"
Crona simply shrugged in reply, causing Maka to continue.
"I mean, not only did this person create two characters with no personalities whatsoever, overpower them and yet somehow still make them look weak, and put them into romances with two characters for no reason at all, but then she copied a storyline from our story directly, only with different characters."
She turned to look at Crona. "And then, she makes another cheap character, but blatantly makes it a copy of you! I mean, really, what's the point of that? …other than to provide you with some laughs, that is…"
Crona had placed a hand over his mouth, trying to hold in his laughter. "I-I'm sorry…I don't know why that's so funny…"
Maka sighed again, shaking her head. "Honestly, if you make a clone of a character, it's destined to fail. No weak copy can match up to the original."
Crona's eyes opened in surprise, his need to laugh quickly disappearing. Not that Maka noticed, as she had got back to her feet.
"Anyway, this fic is garbage, whoever wrote it should die in a vat of concrete, and so on and so forth. Let's get out of here, my faith in humanity is diminishing the more we stay."
Maka walked past Crona and headed for the stairs. Crona didn't move.
"No weak copy can match up to the original." …she was talking about me, wasn't she? That's who the character was…a copy of me…was she complimenting me…?
"Crona?"
Crona looked over at Maka, who was standing at the bottom of the stairs, frowning slightly.
"You coming?" she asked.
Crona slowly got to his feet, holding the plush toy against his chest. "Y-Yeah, sorry…"
As he followed Maka up the stairs, he continued to think about what she said.
Nothing can match up…nothing can compare…so…nothing can replace…? Was she saying I can't be replaced…? No, wait, maybe I'm thinking about this too much…it was just stating a fact, that's all…right?
He looked up at Maka, staring at the back of her head as she ascended the staircase.
…I know she can't be replaced. That much I'm sure of.

Holy HELL, that was ridiculous! I swear, I did not think this would get this long when I started this review!
If I missed your questions this time, I'll get to them in the next review, promise!
Oh, and before I forget, it's that time again! I will be needing specific suggestions from you guys this time around! Of what? Well, it'll be the eighth review…so I'm sure you can figure it out. And I'm also pretty sure what a good chunk of the suggestions will contain…
See you next time!
