Otakus Unite!

Chapter 5 DWMA Training

Kelly's POV

Everyone partnered up. As I predicted, Nick and Victor became partners. Victor's the weapon. He can transform into a halberd.

I partnered up with one of my other friends, Milli, who's a katana. Jennifer partnered up with a girl named Paige who's a sword. Edith partnered up with a girl named Emily who's a bow and arrow.

"Now remember, a sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body. You are going to learn a lot of things about how to maintain a healthy soul here. You need to, because you've been gifted with "power." Both meister and weapon are human beings. Weapons are not objects. If both weapon and meister stay on the same page, the meister won't even need to put any strength into wielding the weapon for them to move. But for this to happen, the meister must recognize the weapon's will and the weapon, the meister's." Maka said. Everyone nodded, understanding.

"First, we'll have some test battles. First off, Jennifer and Paige v.s. Edith and Emily." Stein said.

Jennifer and Edith face each other, as well as the two weapons.

"Transform." Jennifer and Edith commanded.

The two weapons nodded and they transformed. Emily transformed into a bow, and Paige became a sword.

"Alright, begin!" Stein exclaimed.

Jennifer ran straight towards Edith, immediately trying to slash at her. Edith dodged the attacks and she aimed at Jennifer and fired. Jennifer, luckily, dodged.

"Their souls are in perfect sync." Maka said. "Yes they are. I find the battle pretty outstanding as well. Maybe I can dissect one of them." Stein said. "You will not dissect them!" Maka growled.

The two girls continued to fight. In the end, Jennifer was on the floor, defeated. "Yes!" Edith cheered as she fist pumped the air. Jennifer stood up. "Good job." she said, smiling. Edith nodded and she shook Jennifer's hand. The two weapons shook hands as well.

"Alright, next match will be Kelly and Milli v.s. Nick and Victor!" Stein announced.

Nick and I faced each other.

"Transform!" We commanded.

The two weapons then transformed. Victor became a halberd and Milli became a katana.

"I feel sorry for you. A small katana against a giant halberd? I don't see a win in your favor." Nick said.

"Don't underestimate our power." I said with an almost angry tone.

"Good luck." Nick smirked.

"Same to you." I replied.

"Begin!" Stein exclaimed.

Nick and I immediately charged at each other. Nick swung the halberd...er, Victor, at me. I dodged and slashed the katana...erm, Milli, at Nick, easily seeing an opening. His arm then started to bleed, but that didn't stop him.

"Lucky swing." Nick smirked.

"We're just getting started." I said.

"Let's do this, Kelly!" Milli cheered.

"Right!" I said, charging at Nick.

"Come on, Nick! Fight!" Victor shouted.

Nick nodded and charged at me. I kept slashing at Nick and he kept swinging at me.

"Alright! That's it!" Stein shouted when time was up.

Nick and I both were still standing. Nick still had that wound on his arm and I had a small cut on my cheek and leg. Milli became human again and so did Victor.

"You did good." I said.

"You too. But like I said, you didn't win." He smirked.

"You didn't either." I laughed.

Other battles took place. There were very few ties though.

"Alright. Tsubaki here will show the girls to the girl's dorm. Black*Star and Kid will show the boys to the boy's dorm. Have a good rest. More training will take place tomorrow." Stein said. Everyone nodded and looked for their guides.

Jennifer, Edith, and I stayed put, knowing we weren't staying overnight. Kid walked back over to us. "The plane to where Fairy Tail is will take off in ten minutes. Better get out there." he smiled.

"We will. Thanks, Kid." I said, hugging him. I pulled away to see him blushing a little. We all waved goodbye and walked outside.

We saw the plane and boarded it. I looked out the window to see Maka, Black*Star, and Kid waving to us. We waved back and the plane took off. Even though I'd see them in about three days, I knew I was still going to miss them.
