Perfect Symmetry

CHAPTER 1

CHAPTER ONE

KID CARES FOR NO ONE.

EXCEPT FOR THE NEW GIRL?

(Kid's POV)

Professor Stein adjusted his glasses and spun in his chair. "Well, class, I'm happy to say that we have a surprise." He announced. "Ah, great. Another dissection." Soul muttered under his breath. Stein chuckled. "I wish. But, sadly, we are not, today," he has a sense of excitement in his voice. "Today, we will be welcoming two new students; meister Eridan Ampora and his weapon, Aradia Megido."

Aradia. A pretty name. The two students walked into the room, my eyes locked on Aradia. She was actually... symmetrical. Everything about her was perfect symmetry; her hair, her face, her eyes, even the zodiac symbol on her shirt was symmetrical. Same went for her meister, Eridan. I could learn to like these new kids...

ARADIA POV

I was finally a weapon student at the academy! My meister and i did get along pretty well... I just have a feeling that he likes me more than a friend...

Whatever. I had to put my thoughts aside. Professor Stein seated me next to a black haired kid with three white stripes in his hair. Everything about him was symmetrical, even his two weapons, Liz and Patty, i believe their names were. The kid looked at me and said, "Excuse me. I just couldn't help but notice how... Remarkably symmetrical you are." Remarkably symmetrical? Was this guy okay in the head? "Oh well thank you... I like your... Hair... Its... Different..."

Thats when he lost it. "OH I KNOW! ITS ASYMMETRICAL, A DISGRACE TO LIFE! I DON'T EVEN DESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIVE, DO I?!?" I came to my conclusion. This kid was definitely insane. His head rested on my shoulder... Strange. I didnt even know the kid. I stroked his hair to reassure him that it was okay. "There, there. Why would you think that? I happen to love your hair the way it is, asymmetrical or not." I smiled at him welcomingly. "My name is Aradia, by the way." I noticed Eridan hiding his face in his scarf, and blushing and pouting as if he was upset. "Eri, you okay?" i asked. "IM DOIN JUST FINE, THANK YOU." he looked like he would burst into tears any second. "Death The Kid." i heard a voice say. "Thats my name; Death The Kid. My friends just call me Kid. Im a reaper, you know. My father runs this school." interesting name.

"Alright, students. Class is dismissed."

Everyone poured out of the class room. Before Kid left,i grabbed him by the shoulder. "Hey, come here. People don't just cry on my shoulder and not talk to me afterwards." I smiled at him. "You're crazy." he seemed to look a bit hurt by that remark. "I like crazy people." I noticed Eridan, still pouting. I grabbed his arm. "This is Eridan by the way." Eridan looked at Kid like he was something at the bottom of his shoe. "Yeah. Thats me. Her MEISTER. Meanin' her ONE AND ONLY. She is my WWEAPON. MINE. MY. WWEAPON. Got it?" And with that said, he stormed off. Kid looked like he had been struck by lightning. I felt so bad. "Ignore him. He's just really... Over protective. Hey. My friend Dave is having a party tonight. Do you want to go with me?" Kid looked surprised and nodded. "Of course. How could i possibly reject a girl with such symmetry?" he said. "Pick me up at 8."
