I'm sorry for being gone so long! I have no good excuse for my absence(Except the fact that I was not into Soul Eater anymore). However, I did recently get back into it thanks to Seijuku Ceremony's fanfiction and decided to get onto this.

Also, if you want to see some recent genderbent Soul Eater pictures, you can visit Ohisashi's deviant art account. She has awesome comics and pictures. XD

Well then, enough advertising. :3

A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and sound body.

"Maka, I said I was sorry."

"Hn..." Soul huffed as she rested her head on her arms. When Maka had come into her room to wake her up, Blaire unfortunately happened to be pouncing on top of her. She would have been most likely molested had Maka not kicked the tom-cat out the window. Unfortunately, he was silently fuming at her for her inability to stop getting pounced on every few seconds by Blaire.

"I was alseep until he woke me up non-verbally."

"..."

"And I can't help that he's... hot..." This only worsened her partner's mood as a tick mark formed.

The classroom door suddenly opened and a woman stepped in, much to everyone's shock except Maka, who grimaced immediately, and Soul, who groaned when the person who despised her the most walked in.

"Everyone listen up! Your teacher is in sick so until then, I'll be substituting this class. And when the bell rings, none of you brats are getting out of your seats until I say so. Got that?" All the students were instantly amazed while Maka rolled his eyes very obviously.

"Che. What a naggy woman." Soul stared his way.

"Isn't that your mom?" She whispered but her meister scowled.

"She's not my mother. I've never met this person in my life." Maka ignored the disapproving look he got and focused on his textbook cover.

"Hey! No talking in my class Evans!"

"What!?" Spirit was already writing her name up and Soul gaped. "But..!"

"Looks like you just earned yourself a strike two." Before Soul could yell about unfair the woman was being, Maka yanked her back in her seat and leaned forward.

"Write me up as well. I was talking, wasn't I?" He said coolly. Spirit only waved a hand dismissively with a large, loving grin and hearts for eyes.

"Oh Maka~ It would be unfair to fail my loving son!" Maka forced his vomit back down his throat and was about to retort when Soul this time, held him back.

"It's no good. You know how she is when it comes to me."

"But..."

"Oh right. Maka, Evans. Lord Death wants to see you two privately."

Privately?

...

"Do you think it has something to do with our screw-up yesterday?" Soul asked as she and Maka walked down the long corridor to Death's room. They walked along the long rows of red pillars but nothing more is shown after that except a cloudy, blue sky.

"Possibly. It's the first time we've actually failed a mission, isn't it?"

"True. Why don't I feel guilty about it?" Both teens laughed, unaware that a dark figure was crouched on the lined-roof of one of the pillars.

"Number One Rule of Assassination! D-"

"Black Star? Could you scream any louder?" Maka deciphered while turning around and was not surprised to see the girl frozen on her spot. Soul looked up as well and snorted.

"I was spotted!" Black Star screamed in shock before quickly looking at her kasuri-gama. "Tsubaki! This is all your fault!" The male switched into his human form and sighed. There was no point arguing with his meister.

"I'm sorry."

"Great, I accept your apology." Black Star hopped down in front of Maka and the male meister was once again, intrigued by her bouncing chest.

"Why are you guys here anyway?" He asked while turning back to resume his path with Soul. Black Star and Tsubaki followed alongside.

"Dunno. I thought I could decapitate you guys before seeing Lord Death."

"..."

The four students entered the room and found the Death God whipping around from the mirror.

"Hello, hello! How's everyone? I brought you here for a... a chance to catch up with the other students in simpler terms,"

Maka frowned.

"What do you mean 'catch up'? I thought we were at the top of the class?"

"Yeah. I thought my assassination skills were too good for you?" Black Star complained as well and Lord Death signed while leaning down.

"Sure... you used to have those qualities but... you both do remember your slip-ups right?" Soul grinned wearily.

"I wish we couldn't."

"To put it in serious terms. You all have 0 souls. Zero. Nada. Zilch."

This stumped everyone except Black Star, who laughed her butt off. Maka recovered but felt too weak to hit Black Star for laughing at their situation.

"S-Sir... I already said I would fix that. It'll take a while but-"

"I have to be fair with all students, even if you are my favorite ones." Tsubaki grimaced.

"Y-You don't mean..." Lord Death straightened up.

"That's right. You are all taking remedial lessons. And if you don't manage to pass this one, I will fail you all." Once again, everyone was stumped, leaving Black Star to laugh even harder.

"Aahahahaha! R-Remedial... Hahahaha! This'll be a piece of cake!"

In a deserted, cold graveyard, the two teams stood wearily around at their surroundings. While Tsubaki and Black Star checked the grave stones, Soul and Maka were checking out the area. At least, one of them were.

"Come on, Maka! The sooner we do this, the sooner we'll get back on track!" She egged on. No matter what she said, her meister would only groan and hug the tree more.

"I swore... I swore to my father that I'd be the top of class... How? How could I have fallen so low..?"

"You didn't fall low! Yet... But you won't if we finish this mission."

"..."

"It's a remedial lesson Maka," Soul said exasperatedly with a roll of her eyes, "This is pathetic."

"So I really am pathetic?" Maka grumbled in the tree bark and this made Soul squeak and shake her hands fast.

"N-n-n-n-no! I think you're awesome!"

Maka slid more onto the ground weakly with another sad sigh and Soul sweated.

Meanwhile, Black Star and her weapon were checking a tomb stone that was engraved with the words they were looking for.

"Sid... Wasn't that the man that took you in?" Tsubaki asked his partner who narrowed her eyes.

"Yeah... he was..."

"I wonder how he... passed away so early."

"Don't we all." Tsubaki decided not to ponder with the subject since he could see the many emotions running through Black Star eyes.

"I think he was a great man for taking in someone like you." He said in a soft deep voice that recieved a suspicious glare.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Tsubaki smiled.

"Well you are very obnoxious and energetic. Most people don't have the kind of patience."

"Are you just insulting me?" Black Star muttered while looking away from her weapon. Tsubaki shook his head in spite and leaned closer.

"No. I'm merely stating how special you are. I've never met a girl like you with such ambitions. And I'm sure Sid was glad he spent those years with you." The blue-haired meister turned her head away to hide her flattered blush.

"... S-Stop saying mushy things like that or I'll make you do forty push-ups."

"A-Ah, yes ma'am."

"Aaargh! Bakayaro!" Black Star and Tsubaki turned their heads to see what Soul was screaming about.

Soul was now at the point of trying to drag her meister from the tree.

"You're the worst!" Soul wheezed as she gave another harsh tug on Maka's arm. The attempt was as fruitless as ever.

"Soul..."

"Seriously, I have never been so disappointed in you! And it's usually the other way around!"

"Leave me alone..."

Soul huffed as she let go of the teen's arm and flopped on the dirt, glaring at the unaffected male. Black Star hopped over with a huge grin.

"I could pull him up if you need help, Soul."

Before Soul or Maka could respond about her being accidently breaking an arm, rumbling came from the ground. Rocks vibrated on the surface and finally, Maka seemed to be alert since he was slowly standing up and surveying the earthy surface.

"Lord Death mentioned that Sid was now a zombie..." He mumbled.

"And zombies come from the ground..." Black Star hinted.

"And that means... Soul!" Tsubaki gasped when the ground disturbed under her. Before the scythe could realize what was going on, a large, blue hand thrust up from the ground and grabbed her ankle.

Maka yelled Soul's name and was about to grab her when a large figure forced itself out the ground while carrying the screaming girl with it.

"Makaaa!" The figure's head moved down at Soul's flushed face due to being held upside down and Soul pulled the hem of her skirt up wearily.

"If it isn't Soul..." The zombie muttered before staring at the rest of the students. "Maka, Tsubaki, and dear Black Star."

Black Star clenched her fist.

"Sid..."

"Ha. I've always been a man to recognize his students before class. Ding Dong Dead Dong." Sid the Zombie added in a singing voice and shook Soul a little, who whimpered and clenched her skirt tighter.

"Class is in session. Good morning. Good evening..." His eyes roamed over to Maka specifically, who tensed.

"... Goodnight."
