So here is Chapter 3, since the story is finished, I'm going to release a chapter a day. Any reviews are welcome!


Justin's Point of View


It's been three months since we've came here, and we're at around 70 souls. I'm not sure because I've lost count; Jason tends to go on his own and gets the souls himself. It's hardly a group effort. Right now I'm at Maka's party, but Jason hasn't been showing up to these parties since last week.

"Hey Justin, where's Jason?" Asked Maka.

"He's been at home a lot recently; I don't know what's going on with him." I answered.

"Maybe you guys should open up more. " Said Soul, "Maybe we could help if we know what his deal is."

They're starting to get way more suspicious than usual; I have no choice but to tell them. "Jason suffers from severe depression." I mention. "In our old state, we weren't the popular guys because we didn't have something the other kids had; I won't mention it here or anywhere here because it is practically a plague."

Everyone gasps.

"One day, people really started to get on his nerves, so he killed them."

"What?! Does that mean we've been going to school with a Kishin this whole time?!" Black Star yells.

I sigh. "He may be a murderer but he never took any souls. That could be the reason why he never really comes to these parties but don't quote me on it."

"I'm going to go check on him, is that okay?" Asked Tsubaki.

"I have noticed that you two have been talking a lot, maybe he will open up to you but I don't think it'll work." I said.

Tsubaki looks determined. "I'm going anyway." And she runs out the door.

Death the Kid stands up. "I do remember him saying he was the forgiving type, maybe his past is coming back to haunt him."

"You could be right." I said. "But I guess we'll see."


Jason's Point of View


I look at myself in the mirror. "Is this what I've become?" I asked. "A monster?" I remember all of the people I've murdered, they may have been jerks but they didn't deserve to die. I start taking off my wrist tape; my right forearm turns into a blade. I think this is what I'm going to do.

Someone's knocking at the door. I quickly put on my wrist tape and run to the door. It's Tsubaki.

"Hey Tsubaki, what are you doing here?" I asked.

"I came to check on you." She said. "I want to talk to you."

I've been talking to Tsubaki for the past two months. "What's on your mind?"

Her eye's look like glass. "I want to talk about you."

My heart is beating; my anxiety is at its peak right now.

"Justin told me as much as I could hear. Tell me why you murdered those people?"

That bastard! He told her almost everything! Note to self, kick his ass when he gets home. "I've been bullied." I said. "I've always been lonely, and at most times, I feel as if no one cares about me."

She starts rubbing my shoulder. "If it makes you feel any better, I care about you."

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah." She said. "Ever since you came around, we've been talking for the past two months; I've told you some of my issues with Black Star."

"You deserve someone better." I said.

She looks disappointed. "Stop making this about me, I want to talk about you." She starts holding my hand. "I've never told anybody this, but I like you."

I'm in shock, is this some sort of prank? Is she being paid to say this? "Alright, come clean." I said. "I know this is a prank."

"It's not!" She yells as she hugs me. She's holding me tight. Could this be for real? Her face, she's blushing. She holds up her head to mine, and kisses me.

Is this happening? I think I'm dreaming. I kiss her back. She smiles.

"I think you just needed someone to love." Said Tsubaki.

Maybe she's right. I'm starting to feel much better. I smile and kiss her cheek.


Tsubaki's Point of View


I told him what I needed to tell him. I think he's taking the news very well. He did kiss me back.

"Now tell me." I said. "Do you want to come to Maka's party, as my boyfriend? Everyone's asking about you."

He starts thinking. "Do I need a suit?"

"I'm not in a dress, silly." I said laughing.

He continues to smile. "I would've changed anyway, let's go."

We walk out the door and start walking back to Maka's. We're holding hands. He looks towards me.

"Should we tell them the news?" He asked.

"Maybe it's best to wait." I replied.

"Yeah, I agree." He said. "It would probably be weird for everyone else."

We stop holding hands as we've made it to Maka's place. I knock on the door. Maka is there to greet us.

"Hey, look who finally showed up!" Said Maka, smiling.

We walked inside; everyone greeted Jason like he was a celebrity.

"Hey, sorry, I'm not used to this kind of attention." Said Jason.

Soul looks to Jason and smiles. "You two are dating, aren't you?"

Jason stuck with the plan, however he was stuttering. "N-no." He said.

Black Star puts his arm around Jason. "Come on, Jason, tell the truth!" He said.

"Yeah we don't care if you're dating each other." Said Liz.

Patty is laughing as usual.

I come clean. "Yes, everyone, we're dating now."

It almost seemed like everyone knew. But Jason and I just decided to move on and enjoy the party.
