A/N: I have no idea why but most of my OC's names tend to start with the letter J… it's weird XD.
Soul walked into the cafeteria of his new school, looking around, one hand in his jacket pocket and the other grabbing a hold of the bag that was thrown over his shoulder, in his usual slouched form. The school was small, but that didn't stop the nervous feeling that filled his stomach.
He saw the looks that everyone he passed by shot at him, and it didn't help his nervousness at all. He grabbed his lunch with his free hand and went to sit down in the far end of the cafeteria. It seemed like no one wanted to be with him.
He remembers that one kid that wouldn't stop throwing glares at him because Soul accidently tripped him in class, he had a feeling that something was going to happen but he pushed the feeling away and kept walking.
Setting his bag on the seat next to him, he grabbed the burger that was on his tray and took a bite out of it.
"Hey." He heard someone say, but he brushed it off, thinking that it wasn't meant for him, the person behind him repeated their words, but Soul didn't want to respond… he had a feeling that it will only cause trouble.
The person behind him growled in annoyance and shoved Soul's head forward forcefully causing his head to smash down on the table.
Soul held back a groan of pain as he took in deep breaths and lifted his head to look up at the jerk that just slammed his head on the table.
"Listen to me when I'm talking to you." The guy behind Soul growled. Soul noticed that it was the boy that he had accidently tripped earlier.
"And if I don't want to?" Soul responded standing up to confront the guy a glare settling in his eyes as he took a step towards the guy.
"This'll happen." The guy growled pulling back his fist and connected with Soul's jaw causing his head to snap back.
Soul stumbled into the table behind him, his back slamming down against it.
The whole cafeteria quieted down as their mouths snapped shut and looked in the direction where the animalistic noise came from.
Soul had had enough. His life was tough enough as it was, he wasn't going to let himself be bullied. The animalistic sound that came from Soul still rang across the cafeteria as he stood up straight, his hand going to wipe away the blood that was dribbling down his chin.
There was an intense silence as the bully in front of Soul waited for Soul to make his move a slight frown on his face.
He was the bully of the school, and he hated guys that embarrassed him the way Soul did. His name was Dagger Nelson and he had never lost a fight. School bully with a huge ego… the worst type of bully… and Soul is about to take him down.
Seconds passed by and Dagger's stance began to waver, that's when Soul attacked. Soul's good hand shot up to grab the bully's neck and swing him onto the table that was behind him. "Who the hell do you think you are punching me the way you did?" He snarled as his hand tightened around the neck and pulled the bully up only to slam him back down onto the table.
Soul felt something tug on his collar, hard enough to choke him and let go of Dagger. He was being pulled back, away from the bully. He looked back to see that it was a dude in a priest outfit… wait no it was Justin Law… the principle.
"Mr. Evans and Mr. Nelson, a word in my office." He said as he reached over and grabbed Dagger by the collar with his other hand and dragging the two boys out of the cafeteria and in the direction of the office.
Soul let himself be dragged, unlike Dagger who was thrashing his feet and hands, occasionally hitting Soul's shoulder or stomach on 'accident'.
When they entered Justin's office, he sat both of the boys down and walked around his desk to face them. "Alright what brought this on?" Justin questioned as he leaned back in his chair.
"He tipped me and I had to defend myself." Dagger said with a simple shrug as he folded his hands in front of him.
"I tripped him by accident." Soul corrected.
"And why didn't you guys fight in your weapon forms? At least that way you'd have the excuse of saying that you were practicing." Justin informed them.
Soul blinked at the principle. "Come again?" he asked, was this guy actually giving them advice on how to dodge a trip to the office?
"Never mind, as your punishment… you two are going to be partners whenever you practice." Justin said, fighting to keep a straight face when he saw their jaws drop.
"No, how about I just serve a detention?" Soul asked.
"I'll serve a suspension, I don't mind." Dagger said desperately.
"The point of a punishment is that you get punished… I noticed that you don't really get along so this is your punishment until you learn to get along." Just said, dramatically twisting his chair around so that he was facing the window that was behind him, his back to the two teens. "That is my final decision."
"If you'll excuse me, I'm leaving." Soul mumbled hastily as he shot up and walked out the door, remembering that he left his back pack in the cafeteria.
Just as he was about to enter the cafeteria doors there was a pat on his back. He twirled around to see that it was Dagger. "What do you want?" he spat at him, a glare in his eyes.
"Nothing, I can't wait to practice with you." Dagger said flashing Soul a smile and then walking away, back pack slung over his shoulder.
Soul shot him a look of confusion but then shook it off, walking into the cafeteria to get his back pack.
Looking around he started to see people pointing at him, and laughing.
Confusion shot through him as he tried to remember anything that would cause the people that were in the cafeteria to laugh at him.
That's when he remembered how strange Dagger acted just before he came in. Reaching behind him he grabbed a hold of a piece of paper that was sticking to his back and pulled it off. 'Dumb Ass' he read.
Anger tore through him as the paper crumbled between his fingers. Grabbing his back pack, he walked out of the cafeteria, a slight blush on his face as he thought of all the ways he could torture Dagger.
Maka blinked and flinched when she the light hit her face, closing her eyes again. "Ugh… what happened?" she mumbled to herself as she tried to sit up only to be pushed back.
"You fainted, something about pushing your weak body to its limits." She heard someone growl.
Why did that voice sound familiar? Maka opened her eyes and her breathing stopped. "Black*Star?" she whispered in shock. "What are you doing here?"
