After Soul and Maka rested their tired muscles, Soul offered to walk Maka back to her apartment. It was around two in the morning and according to Soul, it wasn't safe for girls to walk alone at night.
"Oh really?" Maka said as she stopped and folded her arms, shifting her weight to her left leg, eyebrows raised.
"Yes, but don't worry if a cool guy like me is with you'll be fine" Soul smiled cheekily, stuffing his hands in his pockets as he continued towards the front doors. Maka glared at him before running to catch up with him.
"What about Tsubaki?" Maka questioned angrily.
"Tsubaki is a weapon and can defend herself" Soul replied, not looking at her, and then added to himself, "I wonder why they were here this late anyway."
"I can take care of myself too!" Maka yelled as she stomped her foot angrily. Soul gave her a look. "I've lived on my own for years, thank you!" Maka quickened her pace, heading towards her apartment building.
"Whatever." Soul said as they reached her apartment building. Maka opened the door and walked inside, heading for the stairs. Soul walked in behind her and shut the door. He headed for the stairs and as he began to head up them, he stopped. He took a quick look around the room, listening to the silence. "Must be my imagination." He said to himself before continuing up the stairs. He stopped at the second floor and followed the hallway to the door that was opened at the end.
"Huh?" Soul stopped and noticed that there were pieces of wood from the door on the ground. "Maka?" he called as he took a step closer, looking into the room. It was trashed. There was glass and clothes all over the place. Papers were scatter on the floor and along with blankets, feathers from pillows and a few other items. The furniture was either slit up with stuffing hanging out or flipped over and tossed against the wall. Someone had trashed this place in the search of something, and as Soul looked around, Maka was nowhere in sight.
"Maka!" He yelled running into the room, ignoring the cracking of glass beneath his feet. "Maka, where are you!?" He called. He heard a noise in the back room and he ran towards it. Stopping in the doorway, he saw Maka on her knees, looking inside a drawer that had been thrown away from the dresser. "Maka?" He asked as he stepped closer.
"Thank goodness it's safe." Maka said to herself, obliviously not hearing Soul.
"What is safe?" Soul asked as he crouched down next to her. Maka snapped her head up and looked at him with a surprised look as she put her hands to her chest to hide whatever she was holding.
"Oh Soul." She said as she breathed a sigh of relief. "What are you doing here?"
"I told you I would walk you home. Then I saw the door like that. What happened here?" He asked, looking around. Maka shook her head.
"I don't know." She then stood up and said. "I should go tell the landlord that this happened."
Soul remained quiet. He looked around her bedroom to see that it was just as messy as the other room. Clothes and sheets where thrown everywhere and it looked as if every drawer had been searched. His eyes glanced over it all but stopped on Maka. She had tears in her eyes as she examined the room with her own eyes. There was no way that this was done by chance.
"Come on." Soul sighed as he made his way to the door. Maka just looked at him with a titled head. "It's late and you've had a long day. You can stay at my place until we can get this solved out."
"But-"
"Just gather some stuff to take with you since we don't know how long it will take, alright? I'll be in the hallway until you're done." He said as scratched the back of his head. He then made his way to the door and as he was about to leave, he heard a faint voice say. "Thank you."
"Yea, yea" he said waving it off as he walked out into the hall to wait for her.
Maka woke up to the morning light shining in on her. She sat up in the bed and looked around. She had stayed the night at Soul's apartment that was surprising only about ten blocks away from hers. Looking at the clock that was on the nightstand next to her, she saw that it was still early. Today was her first day as a student from DWMA and after last night, she was looking forward to it.
Maka climbed out of bed and pulled some clean clothes from her bag that was lying next to it. As she combed her blond hair into pick tails, she heard a loud noise from the other room. As she finished tying it off, she looked in the mirror quickly to make sure everything was okay before heading to see what it was.
As she walked out into the living room, she saw that no one was there. She heard another noise and turned to look at the door that led to Soul's room. She walked over and knocked on it.
"Ah, Soul are you alright?" She asked through the door. When she didn't get a response back, she knocked again. "Soul?"
"Yea, yea I'm getting up!" he yelled at her through the door. Maka titled her head in confusion but decided to let it go. She went to sit on the couch as she waited for him to get dressed.
'What is taking him so long?' Maka thought to herself as she stared up at the ceiling, bored out of her mind. She had been sitting there for twenty minutes almost and she was starting to get annoyed. 'How long does it take to get dress?'
Just then, the door opened. Maka sat up and turned to find Soul standing in the doorway. He quickly closed the door behind him as he headed for the front door.
"Come on, we are gonna be late." He said as he shoved his hands in his pockets. Maka followed Soul out into the hallway and as he locked the door behind him, she looked him over. He was wearing his black and yellow jacket that he had been wearing the night before with his white headband covering some of his white hair. As he finished locking the door, he shoved his hand in his black baggy pants.
"What?" Soul asked when he noticed her staring.
"Oh nothing!" Maka said before following him in silence. They walked out into the street and Soul turned and headed down the road.
"Isn't DWMA this way?" Maka asked, pointing in the opposite direction. Soul looked over his shoulder and said. "Yea, but I need to get something." He said before disappearing behind the corner. Maka looked back the way that the school was in and began to wonder if they were going to make it in time. Suddenly, she heard the sound of a roaring engine. She spun around to see Soul pulling out from around the corner on an orange motorcycle.
"What is that?" Maka asked as he pulled up next to her, letting the loud engine die down a little.
"My bike." He answered her. "Get on."
"Ah, no." Maka said. Soul gave her a look of disbelief.
"What are you scared?" he asked with a smirk on his face
"No."
"Then get on." Soul said again, the smirk on his face growing. Maka frowned at him but slowly climbed on behind him. She gripped onto the seat behind her as she waited for him to go. "You need to hold onto me, or you will fall off."
"I will be fine!" Maka yelled over the loud engine that Soul had just kicked up.
"Alright then!" He yelled over his shoulder as he gave it another kick, making it come to life. The bike started to move forward slowly, but then shot off. Maka quickly reached over and wrapped her arms around Soul's stomach and buried her face into his back. She hated that he was right.
"Maka, Soul, nice of you to join us." Dr. Stein said as they walked into the classroom. Even though they had taken Soul's bike, they still ended up being late somehow.
"Cool guy like me show up whenever they want." Soul said with a smile.
"Keep telling yourself that Soul and see what happens when your grades start to drop" Dr. Stein said before sighing and pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "Now why don't you take your seats? Maka, you are sitting next to Soul and Tsubaki." Dr. Stein said before going back to teaching the lessons.
"Hey" Tsubaki said as Maka sat down next to her. Maka gave her a smile as she sat down and pulled out a notebook to copy the notes that Dr. Stein started to write on the board.
"Hey Soul!" Blackstar whispered loudly from the other side of Tsubaki. Soul leaned forward and to look at him.
"What?" He asked in an annoyed voice.
"Why were you really late?" Blackstar asked. "Was it because Miss flat-chest here was taking her time or something."
Suddenly Maka stood up.
"Ah, Maka?" Soul asked as he looked up at her. She ignored him and everyone in the classroom as the watched her turned her attention to Blackstar, who was looking up at her with a large smile.
"What? Are you ready to worship me?" Blackstar asked. Suddenly, Maka grabbed the book on her desk and slammed into down on his head.
"Blackstar!" Tsubaki yelled as she got down on the ground and looked him over.
"Calm down class." Dr. Stein yelled as people began to whisper. Maka just sat back down, ignoring the fearful look on Soul's face. "Let's focus here." He said before going back to writing on the board.
As class ended, Soul and Maka walked out into the hallway with Blackstar and Tsubaki.
"Hey." said a voice behind them. They all turned to find a boy walking over to them. "Father wants us to go to his chambers." He said as he stopped in front of them. He had slick black hair that, for some reason, had three white strips on the left side of it. His golden eyes were staring at them with a bored look as he placed his hands in his pockets.
"Hey, who's that?" asked a girl with short blonde hair as she peered out behind him, pointing at Maka.
"Patty, it's not nice to point." said another girl with longer, darker blonde hair as she shifted her weight to her right leg.
"But Liz!" Patty said in a sad tone.
"Her name is Maka Albarn and she is a new meister here." said the boy in the middle. Maka took a step back, cautiously.
"How do you know that?" Maka asked eyeing him.
"This is Death the Kid. He is Lord Death's son, so he knows everyone." Liz said.
"But you can call him Kid!" said the shorter girl known as Patty. "Right kid?"
Patty looked up at Kid, but he was just staring at Maka, not saying a word.
"Kid?" Liz asked as he followed his gaze. "Oh no." She said as she realized what was going on.
"Fix it." Kid said as his gaze suddenly turned to a glare. "Fix it now."
"Ah-" Maka said, not knowing what was going on, or what to fix. Soul looked up and noticed it too.
"Ah, Maka, your-"
"It's….not…symmetrical!" Kid suddenly screamed as he pointed at Maka. She took another step back and Soul reached up to grab her hair.
"Hey what are you-?" Maka said but Soul cut her off. "Just stay still otherwise we will never hear the end of it." He whispered in her ear as he began to play with one of her pigtails.
"I can't believe you have had it like that for so long!" Kid said. "I mean, how could you!? Didn't you notice that one was lower than the next, or that one felt off or something!?"
Maka titled her head and said "No." She finally understood what he was talking about. Her pigtail was off.
"That is unacceptable!" He suddenly screamed. "It needs to be perfectly symmetrical, otherwise it will never work!" he yelled.
"But your hair isn't symmetrical" Maka said as she pointed at him innocently. Suddenly, Kid was on the ground, slamming his fist on the ground, mumbling to himself. "I know, it's horrible…I'm an ugly pig…why was I born with those streaks only on my let side? I'm nothing but a worthless piece of garbage!"
"Kid come on now." Liz said as she got down and patted his back.
"Damn, I'm so despicable…I want to die!" He said.
"You said Lord Death wanted to see us?" Tsubaki said, chiming in. Kid stood up and dusted himself off before turning around.
"Yes, we are to go and see him now." Kid said before turning and walking towards Lord Deaths Chambers. Maka just stared after them, not really knowing what to think.
"Don't worry. He is always like that." Soul said as he began to follow them. As the group walked down the hall, Maka began to wonder why they were being called to the Death room when a voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Hey peasant!" Blackstar pointed at Maka, who glared at him, "You should treat your god with more respect!"
Maka looked at him questioningly, before remembering he was talking about.
"But hitting you with books is how I show respect" Maka replied patting her bag with her hand.
"I'd hate to see what she'd do to someone she hates" Maka heard Soul mumble, but ignored him as they came up to the door that lead to the Death room. They walked through the hallway up to the mirror, which Lord Death was standing in front of.
"Hiya everybody!" Lord Death greeted cheerfully and everyone replied to him in unison.
"So what did you need us for father?" Kid asked, while everyone else just nodded their heads in agreement to his question.
"Well Kiddo-kun," Maka glared at Soul who was snickering. He just ignored her as he tried to cover his mouth with his sleeve, "I have a mission for all of you!"
Maka stared at Lord Death, shocked. A mission already? This was her first day for crying out loud!
"Um Lord Death?" Maka interrupted, Lord Death looked at her.
"Yes Maka-chan?" Lord Death replied as everyone glanced at her, confused on what was wrong.
"Well is it really wise to send Soul and I on a mission so soon?" Maka tried to ignore the look Soul was giving her. He looked like he wanted to yell at her for doubting him.
"Well Maka-chan I'm sure with how well you and Soul-kun did on your test with Stein-san and having two other sets of partners, you'll be fine" Death clapped his hands together, "Okay everyone make sure to get lots of rest! You leave for Crete, Greece tomorrow morning at ten" Maka gaped.
"Wait, what is the mission exactly?" Maka asked.
"You have to check on some disturbances that are around the Minotaur's maze in Crete, Greece." Lord Death replied. Maka was about to ask another question when Soul grabbed her by her collar, "Come on Maka" then he dragged her from the room, ignoring the fact that she was yelling at him to let her go.
Kat: Well that was fun! *leans back in chair*
Patty: Fun! Fun!
Liz: Patty calm down
Kat: It's cool, just as long as- *crash* she doesn't break anything *sigh*
Kid: Your room isn't symmetrical anymore!
Kat: *tilts head* It was symmetrical in the first place?
Liz: My thoughts exactly this place is a mess
Kat: *glares* Oh my Shinigami! Liz look! It's a ghost!
Liz: Waah! Where? Where? *runs out of room*
Kid: That was mean
Patty: Sissy ran away! Sissy ran away!
Kat: Hey Kid?
Kid: Yes?
Kat: There is a broken window downstairs

Patty: Let's make giraffes!
Kat: Awesome! Read and Review! Let's go get some paper and scissors!
Patty: Sissy says I'm not allowed to have scissors
Kat: Neither am I what's your point?
Patty: Ok Let's Go! Giraffes!
