Chapter 2 // Weapon of Hell And 'I Love Blossom' Boxers?

I tried to smile, but many of the others just looked at me. Their emotions spoke for themselves as each emotion said a different question or phrase. Some were astonished, another was surprised, but two out of the six were happy. I knew Kid was on the brink of knowing because Uncle Death explained some parts to him, but I didn't expect Soul to be happy.

He smiled at me and clapped a hand around my shoulder, "Blossom, you and I are gonna be good friends." I smiled and wrapped my arm to hold his shoulder. We both grinned like a couple of idiots on drugs as we waltzed into the academy. Maka and the others followed us in as well, especially Black Star who was trying to get in between us. I muttered, "Glad he's okay." It was sarcastic and Soul grinned more at the comment, knowing how Black Star is.

I let go off Soul and slipped out from under his arm, running as fast as I could to my first class. I opened room A303 and Stein was there, smiling like a person who was high on crack. He was just about to dissect a rare bird, but luckily he stopped. Soon, Maka and the others ran into the class and apologized from their tardiness. Stein brushed it off, but the thing was he kept staring at me like I was his next project.

I slowly walked to my seat which was beside Soul and asked him about Stein, but he was silent on that. I didn't bother to push him. The lesson began and Stein was talking about how a new principal had just arrived. He talked about how the new principal had black hair and wore a black vest. He also said that the new principal was a weapon of Hell, too. Many people started to talk asking, "A weapon of Hell? But that's a myth!" Other things were said, too.

I stood up and looked at Stein. "Professor Stein, shouldn't you not talk about the new principal? He must have his secrets to keep, especially that weapon of Hell stuff. Or maybe it isn't true? Are you making lies up, Stein?"

He grinned and looked at me. Soul was trying to pull me back down by my jeans, but I wasn't going to budge. Stein stood up from his chair and walked up the stairs, too. Now I was in deep duty! "Well, well, Aika. Would you like to tell the myth of the weapon of Hell, since you are one yourself?"

I growled and pushed away from Soul. I walked passed Stein and to the board in front of everyone. I asked Maka to come down, as well, so she could hold my scythe form at least. I looked at everyone and then my voice boomed, "Students, yes, I am a weapon of Hell and the only one at that, but the myth is a false one. One created by my own race; the Shinigami. Here's the true story of how I became a weapon of Hell."

I sighed and sat in a chair backwards as I leaned my arms on the back of the chair. Then I started, "So it goes like this. When I was born about sixteen years ago, Satan and Death had visited me. Satan was a good friend of Death, but that was before Satan had 'blessed' me with the gift of a weapon. So, sixteen years ago I was born to my father and mother who were partners of Death. I was their third child. My brother and sister were both five since they were twins. Satan and Death visited me and both gave gifts, since it was a tradition for every Shinigami birth."

"My eyes were closed when I was born, but they opened when Satan was standing over me. When I was younger, my eyes were a bright blue which reminded him of his blue fire. He blessed me as a weapon instead of being a meister, like how the rest of my family was born. What Satan forgot to mention was that I would be a Hell Scythe, one of the most powerful weapons in the entire universe."
