DWMA's Newest Oddball (Soul Eater Fan Fiction)

Chapter 4

Maka dressed in a hurry and was dragging Soul out the door twenty minutes early. "Why the rush?" Soul called to Maka as she ran along.

"I want to be ready to meet Saiko. This is huge, Soul!" She laughed as Soul flopped onto the ground outside the front doors.

"Can we just wait here?" He groaned. Maka nodded and sat down next to him, watching for Saiko and Kirā. Slowly, other students started to arrive and funneled inside. Black Star and Tsubaki sat down next to them and Kid floated above them on Beelzebub. Time ticked by, and finally Maka saw a flash of bright red and raven black hair. "SAIKO! OVER HERE!" She screamed in excitement.

Kirā laughed and hugged her, looking up at Kid. He paled. That was the person he had been talking to. He was sure of it. Kid looked down at him, a slight smirk on his face.

"Kirā, Saiko. You've meet Black Star and Tsubaki. That's Death the Kid and his weapons Liz and Patty. He's Lord Deaths son." Maka told them. Kid jumped down and Beelzebub disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"Pleasure to meet you. Kirā." He nodded. Kirā just nodded numbly back. Maka squealed.

"This is going to be great!" She giggled, grabbing Kirā and Saiko to drag them into Stein's classroom. Groups of friends sat in their spots, chatting while they waited for the bell to ring. Once it rang, Maka and Soul sat with Saiko and Kirā on one side and Crona on the other. The room fell silent. "Where's Stein?" She whispered to Soul. He just shrugged.

Without warning, Professor Stein rolled backwards on his chair into the room. The wheels caught on the door and it tipped backwards, throwing him off. Before he could hit the ground, he lept up and back flipped, landing on his feet. With his back to the class, he stopped to scratch his head. Once he finished turning his bolt, he grabbed his chair and spun around, facing the completely confused Saiko and Kirā.

"Well well well. Who is this, Maka?" He smiled, the light glaring off his glasses.

"This is Saiko and Kirā." She beamed.

"That works out perfectly. Class, today we will be going out into the fields or a physical exam. So I will be gauging your skill, strength and abilities." Suddenly Saiko let out a loud groan and let her head fall with a sickening thud on the table. Kirā picked up Saiko's head and muttered to her.

"Sit up you're gonna get us caught."

"Is she ok?" Stein said, the glare of his glasses looked intimidating.

"Uh, yeah shes fine."

"Ok then let's continue shall we." Kirā turned back to Saiko.

"What the Hell is wrong we you?"

"He gonna find out what are we gonna do?"

"Ok just try not to use your full power."

"Ok I guess that might work. Now pay attention." Kirā rolled his eyes.

"Okay, the pairs fighting will be:" Stein started rattling off pairs of Weapons and Meister, getting goans and squeals from the students. "Then we'll have Maka with Soul against Crona and Ragnarok. And for the last fight, we'll have," He paused looking Saiko in the eye. "Black Star with Tsubaki against our newest students, Saiko and Kirā." There was a stunned silence as all eyes went to Saiko. She hung her head, hiding her face behind her black hair. Her glasses glared at Black Star, a sickly grim smile on her face. This, she couldn't wait for.

Saiko and Kirā sat back and watched the fighting. There were some very skilled fighters in this class. Though, once Maka and Crona stepped up, everyone went silent "Whenever you're ready." Stein smiled to himself. Maka held out her hand and Soul quickly transformed. Crona just opened his palm and his sword formed out of blackness. "You know the rules, no actual harm can be done. Minor scrapes and cuts are fine. Just nothing big. No stabbing or slicing. Remember, these are your classmates. Be nice." Maka nodded, a determined look in her eyes.
