Rise of the Staff Meister
Chapter 2:
The Parents Sacrifice:
The biggest tragedy of the DWMA?
To say that Dr Franken Stein, didn't have compassion would be wrong, which was why he kept looking up from his dissection. He had the whole class working, but he wasn't looking up to make sure no one was stabbing each other with the tools. A boy in the third row was pretending to stab the girl in front of him. It was the girl who sat in the front row. She seemed not to care about cutting something open. She was the child of the Summers. He kept repeating the talk he had with Marie the night before.
"Remember what?"he asked.
"What happened to them." Stein could tell that this was something major. "It's called one of the biggest tragedies in DWMA history! They where the ones taken by the witches Franken. They where the ones killed for keeping a DWMA secret."
Now it was hitting him. Now he remembered, he had been on the team that had found what was left of them. "I can't believe their daughter is old enough to go the Academy."
She didn't seemed bothered by anything. He wondered if anyone had said anything to her yet. Her parents where well known. What they did for the Academy was held in high regard. The class went on and no one seemed to be talking to her. She sat alone at the far right end of the front row. Did she want to be alone? The bell rang. Stein pushed off from his desk, he went flying out of the room fast then any of his students. He had a meeting with Lord Death and he wanted to get there as fast as physics would allow.
Miley stood up and began to head toward the door. She tripped and fell forward, her classmates laughed at her. There came a yell from the back row. "Didn't the teacher's pet mommy ever teach her how to walk right?" Miley bit down on her lip, they were just teasing. None of them knew that her mother was dead. She just stood up and headed closer to the door.
Someone threw something at her. "Do you think you are better than we are?" They called grabbing something else to throw at her. She took a deep breath and headed into the hallway. It was only the first week they would leave her alone as the year went on or so she hoped.
Stein entered the Death Room to find Lord Death and Death Scythe waiting for him. He smiled at his old partner. "Lord Death I need to ask you something about one of the new students."
The Lord of Death tilted his head interest. "Yes, go ahead Stein what is it?"
"One of the students souls wavelength seems to be faint." The screwed head Professor said. "At some points really hard to read. Is that normal?"
"I've only heard of it once before. The child was very young and had be dealt a huge emotional blow but it went back to normal after a few years. Does this student seemed upset about anything at all?"
Stein had a feeling where this conversation maybe going. He wondered if it could be the same person. "No, they seem alright a little shy, but lots of people are shy the first week." He pulled a cigarette out and lit it. "Was this child the Summers girl?" The name hung in the air. No one liked to talk about because they gave their lives, to protect the Academy knowing that their four year old girl was sitting at home waiting for them to come back.
"Yes, it was. As you can imagine finding out you have nothing left when you are four is rather difficult and the young girl hid her pain so no one would see it. People from the DWMA kept an eye on her from a distance till she was old enough to attend. Her wavelength was faint for several years after her parents deaths but returned to normal afterward."
He was right. Why had the issue come back? He would just have to tell Lord Death. "Well she's having the problem again. The student who is having the issue is Miley Summers. Do you think I will go away in time."
"Yes, I think so. Stein please keep this to yourself. I don't want to upset her."
"Other Misters are going to start noticing if they haven't already. Would you mind if I just talk to her about it?"
"I think that would be best, but Stein don't tell her how you found her parents."
Stein was heading back to his classroom. He wouldn't tell a child that, not unless she asked and she didn't seem like the type that would. He pinched the bridge his nose just under his glasses. Why did all the students with wavelength issues flock to him? He thought about Soul and Maka when he started teaching. He wondered if the girl had even found a partner yet. It was going to be a very long year.
A month had passed and students where getting excited. Parent's day was coming, Stein wasn't very thrilled and neither was Miley. Stein thought after a month her wavelength would even out but no it was still like a small spark not a flame.
Miley was staring out at the setting sun. She watched it try to fight sleep. She wounder if she should even bother to go to school the next day. It would be her classmates and their parents and she would show up alone. She really didn't want to... She wondered if her classmates even knew her parents story.
"You come here often." Came a cheery voice from behind her. She knew that voice she turned to face her homeroom teacher. "It is a nice place to think. One of my favorite places when I went to school." He sat down next to her on the wall. "How old where you?" He asked simply already knowing the answer.
"What do you mean?"
"When your parents died," he said blankly. "Sorry put it some plainly."
She pulled her knee toward her chest. "I was four. You knew my parents?" She asked looking over at him with her pale innocent eyes.
"They where two years behind me in school. I knew your mother better than I knew your father. She used to come here to. You had it harder than I did when I lost mine. I was sixteen."
He could tell she was looking at him in shock. He kept looking forward toward the sun. He wasn't really sure what to say now. He told her some thing personal but how would she take it. He felt her soul come out a little. Maybe it was time to talk about it. He hadn't really gotten the chance to speak with in since he told Lord Death he would.
"Hey, Professor. I'm having trouble with my soul wavelength but I'm not sure what the problem is."
"I noticed that to, how long do you think you been having the problem?" He looked over at her, then when he noticed there where tears at the corner of her eyes. He wasn't good with tears, he'd never had been. "It's nothing to get upset over, everyone has trouble somewhere. We wouldn't be human if we where perfect."
"It isn't just my wavelength, I can't bond with a weapon either." She muttered darkly. "Everyone else seem to found one right away, but I haven't even really made a friend yet." She wished the last part hadn't come out. He didn't need to know about her problems not her personal ones anyway.
"Don't worry about the weapon part just yet, you just haven't found someone compilable with you. It doesn't always happen instantly. We'll just worry about getting your wavelength up then we'll worry about the other stuff."
She stared at him. He had said we, he was going to help her? She was hoping he would maybe give her a few pointers, or even just a flat out no. She really was a teachers pet. She might as well take the help where she could get it. "What do you think I should do?"
"You might want to find a reason to get stronger." After that he walked away. It was time to test the theory that he created. He would have to wait till after parents day. He turned around and called to her. "I wouldn't bother coming tomorrow it wouldn't be helpful to you. Take a day and think about it."
Miley did as she was told. She try to think of what she could use to make her stronger. She knew what it would be. What would make her stronger, would be that there a weapon who wanted to be a death scythe and only she could help them.
Miley's idea fell apart, she was losing hope that she would ever find a weapon. There were people who tried to help but she either hurt them or hurt herself. So she returned to her usual haunt of the large stone wall. She stood up letting the fall breeze blow around her. She love the feeling it was almost like flying. She heard someone behind her and she turned around to see on of her classmates.
Miley had a feeling this wasn't a good thing. She wondered how she found herself in this situations. She often met by name calling but that didn't matter, but this classmate their weapon in their hand. She was meister without a weapon. So she was useless to fight them if it came to that. She came down from the wall. Maybe they where just training and happened to find her there.
"You are hard to find you know that. You hide your soul like witches do." She said darkly. "You shouldn't be here. Go back to the rock you crawled out from!" Miley didn't know what to do at this point. She just stood there between her classmate and the wall. The wind picked up again and then calmed again her classmate swung her weapon, an ax. Miley really didn't want to get hit with it. She moved out of the way but caught by the meisters foot instead. This girl was a lot strong then she was and Miley when flying. She slammed into a tree and crumbled to the ground.
"Hey, whats doing on over there?" An older boy and two girls came running up. He was wearing a black outfit with and had the Mask of Lord Death on his breast. Miley could look at him and tell she was Lord Death son. She had heard about him but hadn't really seen him on campus. He was one of the three who had beaten the Kishin. The other girl knew who he was as well and took off. "I'm Death the Kid are you alright?"
"Yeah, just a few scrapes I'll be fine." She said. "Thank you for the help, I have to get going, I have a lot of homework you know how it is."
"I do, and you are quite welcome. You're the one Maka told me about."
"She told you about me, I'm nothing special." She said waving behind her. She made it home and locked the door. She sighed and lay on her bed. She was so lonely she didn't like coming home alone every night. Maybe she should get a pet or something.
