Stein's P.O.V.
I walked into Lord Death's room. He had called us before school started, saying he has something to say to us. "Yoohoo!" Lord Death called to me, Spirit was already there. I reach to twist the screw in my head and start turning it slowly.
"Yes?" I asked, still slowly twisting.
"There's going to be a new student today so we'll have to push the physical exam back just a tiiiinny bit for her. Kay?!" Lord Death said, clapping and then motioning his hands like he's sweeping the exam away from himself.
"Hmm, well, if she's coming today why can't she just take the exam today?" Spirit asked, rubbing the back of his neck.
"She might not have a partner, that and you can't just put a new student through an exam on his first day here....or can you," I said, still twisting with my head tilting to the left.
"You're right!" Lord Death jumped, pointing his index finger upwards. "She doesn't have a (meister/weapon)!" He said but now leaning to his side and wobbling back up again. "Sooo we'll have to have a ceremony before we do the exam!" He informed almost too happily.
"But there's only one other student that doesn't have a partner, what if their soul wavelengths don't match?" Spirit asked, now on the floor in a butterfly position. 'Just like a child,' I thought.
"Ohhhhhh, I have a feeling they will match quite well," Lord Death said turning to his mirror. 'I wonder what makes him so sure.'
"But how do you know???" Spirit asked.
"He must've met her before, or have a little knowledge of her." I said. He wouldn't accept her here if he didn't know anything about her. It's too risky.
"Ohh," Spirit says, looking up at the sky.
"Oh yes, I know her quite well!" Lord Death says as he turns to face us clapping his hands. "Now, off you go," he said as he started motioning us out of the room. "And be sure to tell the other students that the exams are pushed back! I'm sure they'll be relieved!" He said while clapping his hands and then doing a little bow. "Oh WAIT!'' Lord Death called to Spirit and I. I turn my face to the side, seeing him in the corner of my eye, with my hands in my pockets.
"Yes?"
"The students name is (Your name) (Last Name)! Kayy, Byebye!" he said turning back to his mirror again. I shrugged and continued walking out of the room seeing Kid walk in. He's early too. I didn't need the girls name, I didn't really care until now, still, I wonder if she'll let me dissect her. That'd be nice.
"Hmm, I think I've heard that name before," Spirit said walking with his arms crossed above his head. "Oh, hey Kid," he said while turning towards Kid slightly.
"Hello," he said calmly and continued walking. I thought I heard him crying about his hair before walking in. Patti and Liz must've calmed him down again.
"What'd you mean?" I asked Spirit. I already knew the name, but I wanted to know how he could possibly know. The fool doesn't read any books.
"I think I read a book to Maka once when she was younger. Ahhhh, the good days," he said and his eyes went all dreamy again. I sighed, it was probably just a kids book, but then again it was Maka. I walked towards the class, running into Maka and Soul.
"Oh hey, I was about to tell you," I said while Maka stopped, probably confused. "The exam has been moved back a couple of days, there's a new student." Her eyes glowed a bit, but then she snapped out of it when she figured out that the exam has been moved.
"Oh, okay, thanks!" She said then ran off, dragging Soul with her.
Kid's P.O.V.
"Yes father?" I asked while walking into the room, Liz and Patti right behind.
"Hellloooo Kid-kun!" My father said while gentling tapping the top of my head. I quickly fixed my hair, it was most likely the same as it was, but there was no way I'd take that chance! "There's going to be a new student today, and she doesn't have a (weapon/meister) so can you arrange a lil' ceremony/party thingy?!?!" He said, putting his hands straight out and wobbling them, constantly making them uneven. I feel sick.
"I suppose I can, but it would have to be tomorrow. No way everyone can make it today." I stated. It would be strange to suddenly have a party without proper symmetrical invitations given out before hand.
"Ooookaay! Good, I count on you to tell every with an announcement or something, don't make invitations though, you take a bit long doing that." My eye twitched as he mumbled the last part, and as if on Que Liz and Patti decide to join the conversations.
"Tell me about it," and "he sure does!" Were the two comments I got from them. Helpful.
"Goooooood!" He said clapping his hands together and titling his head a bit but then quickly adjusted. He must've noticed that I was about to break. I've had enough asymmetrical-ness today! I might not take another disaster!
