As everyone prepared for classes; studying lessons, honing spells, and hanging out with new bound friends. Some reapers were still arriving from across the globe and from different dimensions.
The Marked Seven along with their expert reaper mentors held a meeting in Grim's chambers. Reaper was Shadow's new mentor, Boogey was Mephitis, Grim was Faceless and Sage's mentor, Inu was Shroud's, Night's, and Shade's mentor.
"So what brings us here the night before classes Grim?" Boogey asked.
"We need to assign a leader to the Marked Seven; you all may not be in the same classes, but because of the recent appearances of the Demon Guardna and the Sin Demons, the Marked Seven will be sent on assignments to survey the dark dimension," Grim explained.
"None of them are strong enough to even face any of those demons," Reaper spoke out.
"Correction," Night said, "I held my own against one of them."
"Correction, that maybe true Night, but not until Destine forced you out," Shroud smirked.
Night scowled.
"Which one of you is going to take command of this seven person team?" Grim asked.
"I think I should Master Grim," Faceless spoke up.
"I think not, I have the strongest Death Mark Eyes out of all of us you clown," Night snarled.
"Bite your tongue; no one speaks to my brother that way!" Sage snarled as she stepped in between Night and Faceless.
"Don't let him get to you Sage, he's all talk, he isn't going to do anything to me," Faceless chuckled.
"Tough talk coming from a little boy that hides behind a mask and his older sister," Night sneered.
"And this little boy is smarter that any one of your brain cells," Faceless said as his eyes began to glow an eerie black, outlining his Death Mark Eyes.
"You little!" Night exclaimed as he began to charge Faceless until Shade and Shroud held him back.
"Calm down Night," Shade said as she struggled to hold back her teammate.
"You're lucky their holding me back child," Night snarled.
"You're not going to do anything to me," Faceless chuckled.
"Calm down you guys," Shadow said timidly, "We're all on the same team now."
"So," Mephitis smirked. "Little Miss. Psychic Death Mark Eyes speak."
Everyone looked at Shadow. She held her head low, fiddling with a string of thread that was loose on her robe.
"Go ahead Shadow, if you have something to say, say it, don't be scared," Reaper said placing his hand on Shadow's shoulder.
Shadow jumped with the sudden words from Reaper.
<Wow, Reaper, is sticking up for me, > Shadow said to herself.
"So, do you have anything to say child?" Grim asked.
"I think," Shadow said still looking at the ground, "I think Faceless should be team leader, my eyes tell me, he's stronger than Night."
Faceless laughed, "See!" Faceless said continuing laughing, "Even the pipsqueak with the strongest Death Mark Eyes says I'm stronger than you."
Night pushed Shade and Shroud aside and ran towards Shadow and lifted her off the ground and held her over his head squeezing her arms tight. Shadow let out a loud ear shattering squeal.
