Chapter 1
(Death the Kid)

The footsteps of the target quickened as it took its next victim. An old man who had happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time met his end painfully slow.

"AHHH!!"

"More power....MORE, MORE!!!" The human with the soul of a Kishin egg bellowed as it slashed its victim with scythe like hands. The old man's body unraveled as it was replaced with a pool of blood and a light whitish blue orb of light. A human soul.

The tainted human greedily consumed the soul without a second glance on who was coming up behind it.

That's when Death the Kid struck.

After patiently waiting in the dark shadows surrounding the alley of Death City, he leaped and pulled out his twin pistols. The two silver weapons gleamed in the moonlight, he flipped over the Kishin egg and faced it, topaz eyes narrowed, his perfect even hair slightly lifting in the wind.

"Gra?"

"Slash the murder is it? Your soul has become a Kishin egg, and now...you die." Kid explained bluntly, he squeezed the triggers on his pistols at the same time, releasing identical bursts of soul power.

It hit the Kishin flat in the chest, destroying it until all that was left was a silently glowing red orb.

Even with the Kishin dead, Kid was furious. He yelled in frustration and slammed down the twin pistols on the cold floor.

"OW!"

"Hey!"

Kid raged, "DID YOU SEE WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!?" The two pistols glowed as two teenage girls appeared, one that was tall and had a cool disposition and long hair and another that was short with barely shoulder length hair and a cheerful attitude. They both wore the same outfit, white hats with a red trim, a red shirt that hugged their chests, a short black tie, and shorts that matched with red boots.

They're names were Liz and Patty.

Liz rolled her eyes, "What did we do now, Kid? We did what the mission asked for, kill 'Slash the murder' a turned human that strayed off the path of humanity."

Patty giggled, "Its body went splat! Can I eat the soul this time, kid?"

Kid rubbed the bridge of his nose in irritation, "No Patty, you have one more soul than your sister remember? It must be perfectly split up! But that's not the problem here!"

"Well please, enlighten us before you have another nosebleed and pass out."

Kid sighed, "When I fired you off at the same time..." He pointed an accusing finger at Liz, "YOU released your energy exactly 1.3 seconds after your sister!"

"...So?"

"So? SO?!? It wasn't perfect you twit! It was in the least of amount of symmetry I have even see, it was nearly as bad as that decaying Pharaoh...well maybe not, but this comes at a close second!" Kid ranted as he waved his arms in angry circles.

An anger vein popped onto Liz's head, "Don't talk symmetry to me, look at you!" Kid paused in his rant to raise an eyebrow, "What?"

Patty giggled and pointed at Kid's shirt, "You missed a button when you got dressed Kid, it's all uneven!"

"No...no, I didn't. I couldn't have!" Kid looked down and saw that they were right. His perfect jacket, with exactly three stripe shaped buttons, and three stripes on each shoulder was lopsided, with a hole that was empty and needed the button that was hanging uselessly.
