Episode 1: Partners - I Don't Know A Thing

This is a fan fiction story based on the anime Soul Eater. If you've read the manga, don't complain that certain things aren't right since this is based off the anime. I highly recommend that you watch the series before reading this.

EPISODE 1: PARTNERS - I DON'T KNOW A THING

I sighed and paused at the bottom of the steps leading the Death Weapon Miester Academy. The building was huge and had very unusual architecture. The entrance way was a giant skull that had three spikes leading out its forehead. There were two large towers on either side of the building as well as a collection of smaller black towers in the center.

I glanced at my watch: 6:30 it said. I was a half an hour early like I was supposed to be. The school didn't start until 7. I headed up the steps. The entrance way was much larger than I had thought it would be. I looked around for the student who was supposed to take me to the 'death room', whatever that was.

"Hey! New kid!" I turned to see a boy standing in the middle of the entryway. He had a no-sleeved dark blue tee shirt on. There was a star imprint burned onto his shoulder and I could see a star stitched into his gloves. His gloves were dark blue and the star was white.

"Hello there." I said. I was a little wary since he had a weapon in his hands. I didn't know what it was called, but it looked a little like two small double sided hooks with sharp edges. There was a chain connecting the two pieces.

"Who do you think you are? You think you own the place?" He seemed rather oblivious and a little self-centered.

"Not at all. I was told to come here at 6:30 so I'm here at 6:30. Are you the one who's suppose to lead me to the 'death room'?" The name had thrown me when I had read it. It was odd.

"Nope. I'm Black Star and this is ..." He didn't get any farther because a girl hit him on the head with a book. I wasn't sure who he had been about to introduce, but I doubted it was the girl with the book.

"Idiot!" She said. The guy rubbed his head and was muttering something about it hurting. "She's the one who doesn't know about the school yet. You know. The contest winner?" The way she said it made me wonder if it had been some sort of weird scam.

"Come on Black Star. Give her a little time to get settled in before you try to beat her up." I looked over to see another boy sitting on the ground up against a pillar. He had loose wild white hair and a white sweat band on. His sweatshirt was orange and I could see his canine teeth were extra sharp.

"Okay. How do you all know who I am?" I asked. I shifted my backpack and looked at each of them in turn.

"Easy. Our teachers announced that the contest winner would be arriving today." The girl said, holding her book with both hands in front of her. She had her hair up in a pair of long light brown pigtails, a red plaid skirt, a white button up shirt, and a black trench coat on that was wider at the bottom.

"Oh." I said to myself.

"Anyway, I'm Maka and that's Soul." She gestured to the boy with white hair. He stood up and came over. "What's your name?"

"So they told you I was coming but not my name? Okay. Whatever." I shrugged. "My name's Dragon."

"Dragon?" Soul asked. He and Black Star started laughing slightly.

"Don't make fun of my name. It's not any weirder than Soul or Black Star." I replied. I was used to people teasing me, but I had hoped at a place full of weird names it wouldn't seem so out of place.
