Puzzle Pieces (Soul Eater Fanfiction)

二 settling

"What did you need, Shinigami-sama?" Maka asked once she entered the Death Room. Soul followed behind her, arms lazily placed behind his neck. Kid rolled his eyes at them, mostly at the albino.

"There's new students coming today- they're surprisingly very talented meisters and weapons!" Shinigami-sama exclaimed cheerfully, he was ecstatic of knowing there's new people arriving. "So I thought, why not let you tour them around?"

"What?!" Kid looked at his father, not expecting that. Patty cheered about touring new students, while Liz sighed and thought about the things that will happen. "Even us?!"

"Yep! Even you three." Shinigami-sama replied. "Maka and Soul, wait for the guy with brown hair and the girl with white hair. Kid, wait for the girl and guy with black hair. Okay?"

"I'm fine with that." Soul shrugged. He smirked. "Let's go, Maka."

"Alright!" The pigtailed blonde piped up, waving goodbye at the death god and went out to the entrance. They passed by hallways and random students until they got to the doors. The sun was nearly out, other than that it was a cloudy morning. Soul sat down, leaning on a post. Maka just waited for the students they'll be touring, wondering how they will be. A guy with brown hair and a girl with white hair, right?

'Seems like Soul.' She thought, sweatdropping as she briefly pictured a girl version of her weapon. She then wrinkled her nose in disgust. 'She probably doesn't look like him. I hope she doesn't.'

"Oi, Maka, is that them?" Soul spoke, snapping the meister out her thoughts. Maka looked down, seeing a guy with brown hair. Behind him, a girl with white hair can be barely seen. She nodded, excited about meeting them.

"Hello!" Maka said aloud, waving at them. The brown haired guy looked up and waved back, almost losing hold of the girl behind him. Once they got at the foot of the stairs, the guy turned into a dagger(?) and the girl... flew?!

They got to the top, the guy turning back and catching the girl in his arms.

"Um, hello!" The guy smiled, putting the girl down. She quickly hid from them, peeking from behind the guy. He lightly chuckled. "I'm Stark, and this is Aila, my meister."

"H-Hi." The girl shyly greeted. Maka just noticed she had purple eyes and that she had thick black streaks halfway up her hair. Weird.

"Sorry if she's like that, she's just really shy." Stark lightly chuckled, glancing back at Aila. She awkwardly shuffled, Soul noticing that her shoes were changed with roller skates. "Are you the ones to tour us?"

"Yes, I'm Maka Albarn." She introduced. She pointed at the albino on the floor. "He's Soul Evans, my weapon. Should we go now?"

"YOU FOUR! BOW DOWN TO YOUR GOD!"

Aila squeaked in fear as Stark instinctively turned into a katana, the frail girl grasping the handle tightly. Maka took a step back, not knowing the situation. Soul rolled his eyes, standing up and walking to his meister. He looked up, seeing the usual blue haired meister shouting his introductions.

"Oi! Black*Star! You scared the newcomers!" Maka grew an irk mark, her fists clenched up at the annoying blue haired kid.

"Sh-Should I a-attack?" Aila meekly asked- Maka can see her as a lamb. Stark turned back, knowing that the kid was just a prideful idiot.

"No, no." Maka chuckled, lightly patting the girl's head. She flinched at the contact, making the pigtailed girl return her hand. "He's harmless, unless he-"

"You two! Prove your worth by battling a god such as me!" Black*Star exclaimed, now beside Soul.

"Shut up Black*Star, they're just new students." Maka sighed. The bluenette continued to speak, mostly about him being a god and them battling him and stuff. The pigatiled girl grew an irk mark once more, taking the book that was carefully tucked under her arm. She held it up high and, "MAKAAAA CHOP!!"
