The New Battle Begins

Chapter 3

CHAPTER 3

Angel sat quietly in the library as she read her textbook, analyzing each word across the page. She had woken up early and gotten to the school. Her father, also shockingly, was able to let her in. So, she had made her way to the library and started studying. She never did poorly on a test. Always well because of her good studying habits. Jamie never quite did as well but she never fell below a B.

The doors to the library opened and Angel glanced up to see Kid stroll in and she swallowed. Her cheeks slowly heating up before she went back to her book paying him no mind.

Kid looked over, seeing Angel reading peacefully as her eyes scanned the pages. He looked at the book in his hands before walking towards her table.

"Good morning, Angel." Kid spoke.

Angel looked up, answering normally and casually. "Hey Kid, You're up early."

He nodded. "Yes well, I believe I have a test to study for." He paused and motioned to the empty seat beside her. "Do you mind?"

She looked at the seat and then shook her head. "Not at all. Go ahead."

Angel wasn't always a student of the DWMA which was why during Asura's defeat and such she hadn't come to the DWMA, but she always did live in Death City. For that, her father was close enough to Lord Death and with that access, she had known Death the Kid as a child. She watched him grow as a friend and as close as they were, She felt that growing feelings for the guy was inevitable. Not that she would ever admit it.

At the same time, as someone who dated both Liz and Maka, her own god sister, he didn't present what his type was between those two girls. Normally that was a good sign for girls who looked to dating him but Angel had no such interest.

Hearing the weak coughs from across the library, her eyes had only left her book to look at the clock at a nearby wall and she sighed upon noticing that class was bound to start soon.

"Make sure you get to your first period on time. At least by a few minutes preferably." She stated to Kid with a straight face and picked up her things and went to the shelves to return the books she was looking through.

Jamie yawned as she sat up in bed and looked at her alarm clock and her eyes widened as she fell out of bed. She was an HOUR LATE.

Not to mention she had over 20 missed texts from Soul about being late to school.

Jamie grabbed a pair of sweats and a tshirt that slightly hugged her body as she threw her hair up into a messy bun. She quickly ran into the kitchen grabbing the coffee pot and pouring some into a thermos and yawned as she picked up her phone walking out of the house, grabbing a bus to get to the school.

When Jamie did finally arrive to her second period class, students settling in, it was always this sort of class schedule. Science with Stein, History of Death City with Nygus ;who also was the Instructor of Martial Arts and the school's nurse, no one knew how she did it all, Battle Arts with Sid, regular gym that was shared with both the EAT and NOT class overlooked by Sid and Nygus, Meister 101 with Stein and Demon Weapon 101 with Marie Mjolnir, Study Hall or lunch, Social Studies with Spirit Albarn, and Soul Studies with Stein. At least, that was how it was for Jamie and Angel who were in the EAT class with the other upperclassmen.

Of course neither of them had partners, both being meisters but somehow they were let by to be partners together. Instead of being on Maka's or Kilik's team specifically, they were assigned on certain missions to with whichever team by Lord Death.

When Jamie finally sat down, Angel was sitting there with an eyebrow raised towards her friend. "I want to say you're lucky that second period's bell hasn't rung yet but you missed an entire class. How can you sleep in so much?"

"I don't know. My alarm just didn't go off and- Wait! What about you? You didn't even wake me up or wait for me this morning." Jamie argued with a firm pout on her lips.
