Nine years later, Seirei is fourteen years old. She is a long bladed gun sword with the necklace Maka gave her as her keychain at the end of her handle. She has shoulder length red hair and wears a t-shirt with blue jeans and converse shoes. Her best friend, April, is a miester and she has long black hair and purple eyes. She wears an oversized black sweater and shorts. Even though Seirei is a weapon and April is a miester, they are not partners. They are unable to resonate their souls for some unknown reason that even Stein doesn't know.

"Ok try and focus relax your souls," Stein instructed.

Seirei and April both did as he instructed and tried to resonate, but Seirei's handle just ended up burning April's hands.

(No matter what we do we can't resonate!) Seirei signed after she transformed back to her human form.

"Why don't you two take a break," Stein said as he lit a cigarette.

Seirei nodded then she and April went out into the woods.

(Sorry, I don't get why we can't resonate.) Seirei signed.

"Its ok, we will figure something out," April said as they explored the woods. Seirei smiled and started to walk across a fallen tree. They sat down on the old fallen tree and signed to each other. Then Seirei froze like she was trying to listen to something. She closed her eyes to concentrate, she was picking up on a soul near them and coming closer. It was a kishin egg. Seirei jumped down to the ground and April followed her.

"Seirei? What's wrong?" April asked. Seirei looked around the soul was moving so fast she couldn't keep up with where it might be.

(Its a kishin egg) Seirei signed and transformed her arm into a blade. She waited for the kishin to pounce. For a brief moment, which seemed like an eternity to the young girls, the kishin egg finally revealed its self. The kishin launched its self at them with an attack, but Seirei was quicker. She blocked it with her blade and pushed back the kishin then sliced it as a counter attack. The kishin did its best to dodge Seirei's attacks but was caught off guard when it realized Seirei could fire compressed soul waves of her own soul. By the time the kishin saw the blade pointing at him he knew he was dead. She fired and shot him straight through the chest. The kishin's body faded away and all that was left was its soul. Seirei turned her arm back to normal and went over then ate the soul. Afterward, she turned around and looked at April.

"Oh, my gosh are you ok Seirei?" April asked as she ran over to her. Seirei nodded and smiled to show April she was alright. "Ok let's go back and tell your dad. There aren't supposed to be any kishins out in these woods." April started walking back. Seirei was about to follow her, but she froze again.

"Why didn't you let me handle it? You know we could have easily killed it! And yet you keep me locked away! Why Seirei? WHY DO YOU LOCK ME AWAY!" A voice said that only Seirei could hear.

Seirei covered her ears and mouthed "SHUT UP! SHUT UP! You are so annoying!"

April looked back and got a confused look on her face. "Seirei? Are you ok?"

Seirei looked up at her and started running back to her house. April followed her back not sure why Seirei is acting this way.

Stein was still outside smoking his cigarette when he looked up and saw them running towards him. "What's wrong?" he asked.

When they got to him the girls were both out of breath as they both took a moment to breathe. "There was a kishin egg in the woods, but Seirei was able to kill him and eat his soul all on her own," April said.

"Good job Seirei!" Stein said as he smiled at them.

Seirei nodded her head and turned towards April (Let's call it a day.) She signed.

"Alright, are you gonna stay the night here tonight?" April asked.

Seirei nodded and went inside. Stein said goodbye to April and went inside as well. Seirei was sitting on the couch while feeling the stitches around her throat.

"Hey if you're staying the night let me replace some of your stitches," Stein said and motioned for her to follow him to the examining room. Seirei did so then sat on the hospital bed and put her hair up in a ponytail. Stein started to look at which stitches to replace. He then put a gel-like cream to numb the area and began to take out the old stitches and replace them with newer ones. Once he was done with the stitching, he cleaned up her neck and put a bandage around her throat to keep the stitches in place. "See that wasn't so bad now was it."

Spirit came in "Hey how are you feeling?" He asked Seirei.

(Daddy just replaced my stitches so my throat is still a little numb.) Seirei signed.

"She also managed to kill a kishin egg on her own," Stein added on.

"Awesome see I told you all that training would pay off," Spirit said to her.

"You didn't say that I did besides you mostly sleep through training," Stein said and smirked.

"Oh shut up," Spirit said and he crossed his arms and pouted while Seirei giggled.

(I'm going to bed. I'm tired from all the training today.) Seirei signed and got down off the bed.

(Goodnight) Spirit signed to her. She smiled and went to her room.

"April has been telling me Seirei has been acting strangely," Stein said as he walked to their bedroom and Spirit followed.

"Really? How so?" Spirit asked as he took off his shirt and went to brush his teeth.

"Well mostly her just screaming at random moments," Stein said as he also took off his shirt.

"That's not like Seirei," Spirit said.

"I know that's why I want to run some test on her tomorrow," Stein said as he went into the bathroom and wrapped his arms around Spirit hugging him from behind.

Spirit smiled and finished brushing his teeth then turned around and kissed Stein. "Nothing is wrong with her, she is a teenager."

"I know but I just want to make sure," Stein said.

Seirei was in her bed hugging her knees close to her chest.

"So what you're just going to ignore me now?" The voice said to her.

(Believe me, I've tried to ignore you my whole life.)

"Hey, I want to show you something cool come on."

(No you will just get me in trouble again Seke.) Seirei signed.

"Aww come on it will be fun don't you want to see what's behind the door at the end of the hall?" Seke tried to talk her into.

Seirei didn't respond for a while as she thinking it over. She then got up and picked up her flashlight just in case she needed it. Seirei then went over to her door and peeked outside to make sure her parents weren't in sight. After making sure the coast was clear she tiptoed down the very long hall to the last door. Seirei then hesitated to turn the doorknob knowing she was not under any circumstances to open this door.

"Come on just open it," Seke said getting impatient.

She held out her hand to turn the doorknob but it wouldn't turn. (Oh well guess its locked) Seirei signed with a relief as she was about to head back to her room.

"Wait. Check your pocket first."

Seirei froze and put her hand inside her pocket feeling something cold inside. She pulled out the object for it to only be the exact key for that door.

"Now unlock it."

She went to put the key in the keyhole and turned it till she heard a click. Seirei then quietly turned the doorknob and opened the door. Behind the door were stairs going down to the basement she didn't know they had. A part of her was telling her to close the door and go to bed, but another part of her craved to see what was down there. She thought about for a moment before taking a step inside; the door slowly checked closed behind her.

"See now that wasn't so hard now was it?" Seke said.

Seirei ignored him and turned on the flashlight as she started walking down the stairs. After a while of walking down the stairs, Seirei reached another door. She assumed it would be locked and used the same key to open the door. Seirei opened the door the room was pitch black. Seirei tried to find a light switch. When she found one, she flicked on the switch and the light reveled an old laboratory.

"Wow isn't this cool?!"

(Yeah but… why doesn't dad ever use it?) Seirei signed as she looked around. There were jars filled with frogs, mice, and possums most likely for dissecting. Then there were jars that had eyeballs, lungs, and what looked like hearts. Starting to get grossed out Seirei looked somewhere else as she turned around to only be greeted by a body. She fell to the floor in shock her eyes fixated on the body. After she calmed herself down she stood up and looked at the body. The body had been contained in a large tank to keep it from decomposing it had and an oxygen mask wrapped around its face as if to keep him alive. He had red hair and pale skin his eyes were closed as if he was in a deep sleep, but Seirei could tell he had no soul. Then she realized there was a plaque that said.

In memory of our son who never got a chance to breathe. I made you this body in case you ever choose to come home. We love you Seke.

Seirei put her hand on the glass.

Brother…
