Reader's pov

I sat there. I sat in my old, broken home. A abandoned home. I was left here. My mother, a witch, wanted me to die. I want to be that, dead. I wonder what it's like. Is there a after life? Like they say, or do you just disappear? All that's left of you is a memory. I have trained, trained to no end. So that one day if my mother ever came back.... I'd be the one to kill her. I have counted every soul I have taken. All we're Kisha. All except 1. That was a witch from so long ago. She begged me to take it, saying that she wanted to die and for her soul to go to a good person. A strong soul. What does that make it now? My 203rd soul? I don't ever eat human souls. They don't deserve it.

Only evil does.....

All of a sudden it heard my front door open. There stood a man witg grey skin, black hair, and and black armor almost. His bright white eyes widen when he saw me. He ran over to me and gripped my shoulder, but I soon smack it away. "Please don't touch me....I don't like it." I say gently so he wouldn't be mad. He just looked at me with sympathy written all over his face. "H-how long have you been here?" He said. I gripped my arms. " For as long as I can remember." At my words, he froze. After a while his regained his compsure. Then he held out his hand. I was shocked by his kind gesture. No one was ever this kind to me. "My name is Sid, I want you to come with me. No one deserves to live like this. I work for a school called the DWMA. We train weapons and teach miesters."

"Thank you.....thank you so so much...." My eyes began to water as I hugged him. He hugged me back in comfort. As we separated he patted my back and we walked out of that house. "So, what are you? Weapon or miester?" He asked. "I-im both actually....My mother was a witch and my dad was a Kisha. My dad died and my mom abandoned me in that house. That was when I was 4...." I say as I look down at my feet. The sun was setting as it trys it's hardest to stay awake. I always thought that was funny. "No person like that should deserve to live...." Sid says. "I know. That's why I trained. I put everything I had into training. So that I may end her and bury the memory with her." I say, clenching my fists.

All of a sudden, I feel something warm run down my fingers. I stopped and look at my hand. Seeing the red liquid coming from my knuckles. Sid saw and pulled out some bandages. He gave me what he could of a warm smile. I feel my lips pull up to do the same. I took the bandages from him and wrapped my knuckles up, stopping the bleeding. I handed the rest back. He took them, put it back in his bag, and we continued walking. My (h/l) hair moving with the cool breeze.

Time skip

"Well well what do we have here?" A man in all black and a silly skull mask said. I can tell he was very powerful, even through his goofy voice. "I found a girl in a abandoned home. She lived there and I thought we should bring her back." Stated Sid. A man in a white lab coat, grey hair and a screw threw his head sat in the corner. He made me curious about him. He had stitches covering his body, even one on his face. His glasses covered up his eyes so I couldn't tell what his true expression was. "My name is Lord Death. What is yours" asked the man in the goody mask. "I-i think it's (y/n)." I said, putting my attention back on Lord Death.

"Well I am happy to bring you out of the hell you lived in." He said gently. I nodded. I could tell he closed his eyes, reading my soul. "You are welcome to stay here at the academy as long as you please. We can provide a room, food, and clothes for you here." He said opening his eyes. Again my eyes begin to tear up. "Thank you both so much. I only just met you and you all are so nice to me. I don't know how I could ever repay you." I say as tears flowed from both eyes. "No need. I just hate to see what could have been one of my students, in such a state." Said Sid. I nodded and wiped my eyes and face Lord Death. "You said this was a school right? Well I wish to join. That's the only thing I can do to repay you both. I don't care what you say, I want to at least do this." I say calmly.

Lord Death sighed. "As you wish." He says. I run over and hug him. "Again thank you." He hugged me back. "Your very welcome (y/n). Now you should go now and head to your room. Stein I need you to take her there." He says looking over to the man in the corner. He is now smoking a cigarette. "Ok, follow me." He says leading me out of the room. When we reach my room I am shocked by how well kept it is. "You guys bearly know me and yet you treat me with such kindness. Thank you." I say looking at the man. He just gave me a smile. "It's no problem. Since your starting school I will be one of your teachers. My name is prof. Stein." He said. His glasses were no longer covering his eyes. His eyes were a bright green eyes we're kind and had a soft look to them. I smile back, wipe my tears and head inside.

It was small but it was fine. The living area had a TV and a tan couch. There was tan carpet to match it. The coffee table was brown with a remote on it. There was a balcony that had green curtains covering them. The walls were white, matching the trimming. The kitchen had tiled floor, a coffee maker, a microwave, a oven, and a sink. It had brown drawers and cabinets. The bedroom had the same tan carpet leading into it at it connected with the bathroom. The walls were white as they matched the shelf along the wall. There were books that sat up there too, just waiting to be read. I had a side table next to the bed, along the a wooden desks. There was a stack of blank papers, unopened, along with a box of pencils. In the corner of the room was a dresser filled with clothes. There were a bunch of loose clothing and a bunch of tight clothing. A bunch from different colors to different styles.

I was so overwhelmed with it all, I didn't know how to process it. "This is all so amazing. I will have to thank Lord Death again when I see him." I said to myself smiling even brighter. I felt a big hand on my shoulder. "I'll let you get settled then." Said Prof. Stein. And with that he left me to do as I please. I was exhausted by todays events, I decided to go to bed early. I have a long day tomorrow.

In the morning

I woke up to a knock on the door. I was a very light sleeper so I assume it was this person just got here. I got out of the soft, warm bed and make my way to the door. Before I did I grabbed the brush that laid on my dresser, quickly brushing it out. I then open the door to reveal Prof. Stein there. "Hey (y/n), since it's your first day I decided to wake you up and walk you to class." He said in his care free voice. "O-oh thank you. Just let me get ready." I say and head back to my room and lock the door. I then head to my dresser, pull out a (f/c) tank top with a (sf/c) jacket to cover up my arms. Then I grab some black skinny jeans and head to he bathroom. I took off my old clothes, throwing them in the trash. Pulling open the shower curtains and turning the water on, the water felt cold. I shrugged my shoulders knowing that is would wake me up, I hop in.

It wasn't too cold so I had no problem with standing it. Once I was done, I got out and got dressed. I then brush my teeth and my hair, heading out of the bathroom. I then grab a towel and dry my hair. When I was done I put the towel on a rack to let it dry. I then unlock my door and heading to the living room to see a lazy Prof. Stein sitting on the couch, waiting for me. "Sorry to keep you waiting. Let's go." I said. He nodded as he got off the couch. We then left the apartment and make our way to the classroom. Seeing as he was a teacher we showed up early. "Hey Prof. Stein. When class starts, please don't make me introduce myself in front of the class. I hate being the center of attention." I say holding my arm and looking at my feet. "That's fine, but I don't normally do that. I like to battle the students so I can know how strong they are. Seeing as you've never eaten a kish-" I interrupted him. "Actually I have." I say. I realized what I did, is he going to do the same thing as mom? "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you." I half shouted. I look down at my feet, waiting for my punishment.

"It's fine, but I want to know how many you have eaten." He said calmly. I let out a breath a I didn't even know I was holding in. "I-" This time I was interrupted by the Bell. At that I took my seat as students began to pour in. I then become scared at I make it to the top corner of the class. Some kids noticed me and began to whisper to each other. I became a little self conscious at this. Once everyone took their seat Prof. Stein stood in front of the class. "Ok class, we won't have any work today. As some of you have already seen, we have a new student. (Y/n), may you stand in front of the class?" I gulped.

As I stood up, I could feel everyone's eyes glued on my every move. As I reach the final step, Stein began to speak. "Ok let's make this short, we are going to battle and I want to you to throw everything you have at me." He said. I could feel myself smirk. "I can't. If I did....I could kill you." I say. I heard a couple laughs coming from the crowd and couple "yeah right"s. "Don't underestimate me." Said Stein darkly. "Well, I'm sorry if I hurt you too badly." I say with slight worry in my voice. I could see his soul, it was strong but not strong enough. I get in fighting stance. A stance I learned to be called "human sin stance".

I heard a gasp from the sea of students. I ignored it and keep my eyes on Stein. I stand their waiting for his first move. Soon enough he strikes and dodge. Catching him off guard I elbow him in the back, knocking him on the ground. Before I can hit the ground I roll onto my feet. He then trys to jab me in the side, but I grabbed his hand and kick him in the stomach. He winced in pain as he held on his stomach. "I am so sorry." I say. This made him smile as he ran to hit me. I had enough and release the seal on my soul. This made him freeze mid-air. "W-why can't I move?" He said with a little fear in his voice. The crowd of students looked horrified and shocked. Guess none of them are stronger than me. "I told you not to under estimate me. Do you give up or do you want to continue?" I ask with a smirk. He growled in frustration. "I guess that means continue." I say. I put two fingers to his head and closed my eyes. I heard him gasp, knowing the attack. I sent a wave length to him, knocking him out.

I then put the seal back on my soul and catch him. I carried Stein to his chair and sat him down as he slept. I then put my hands in my pockets as I make my way back to my seat. Everyone looked frightened of me for a little bit but then began to make conversation. Some of them even left since the teacher was knocked out. I was about to myself but then a kid with black hair, a suit, and three lined stripes in his hair came up to me. "(Y/n), I am Death the kid. I want to know how you knew that stance and how did you knock out Stein?" Asked kid. "O-oh well I learned the stance from my mom, and I knocked out Stein by releasing the seal I keep on my soul. I have taught myself to hide my soul and use it to trap anything that gets in its area, or something." I said scratching the back of my neck. "Wow...well I have one more question. What are you? Weapon or miester?" He asks.

I tense up at the question, answer. "Actually...I'm both..." I say looking down at the floor. "Hmm." He says, pulling out a thing of measuring tape. I looked up at him questionably. He held it to one side of my face, then the other. "Yep I was correct. Your perfectly semetrical." He says rolling his measuring tape up perfectly and sticking it in his pocket. I just raise an eyebrow. Just then two girls who I assume are sisters walk to each side of him. "(Y/n) this is Liz and Patty. These are my partners." Said kid. I nodded and when back to staring at my feet. A loud bang could be heard from the classroom as the bell rang. I assume Stein woke up cause I could hear a growl and a thunk og metal hit the ground. I rushed back into the classroom to see kids pouring out of the class and a now pissed and awake Stein.

I ran over to him to make sure he was ok as he sits up. "How are you feeling. I'm sorry again if I hurt you." I say, my voice was full of worry. "I'm fine just gave me a headace. I really didn't expect one of my students to be able to beat me. Again how many souls have you eaten?" He asks. "O-oh up, 232 Kisha and 1 witch." I say. I began to hold my arm and looking at the ground. I could see Stein freeze. "So your saying you beat a witch in battle?" He said wide eyed. "No, she gave it up. She wanted to die and for her soul to go to me...." I said as I had a sad smile just thinking about it. "Come with me." He says getting off the ground. I did the same as we headed down to Lord Death's office. When we got to the door Stein knocked on it. "Come in!" Said Lord Death. We opened the door to find Lord Death, Kid, and a man with red hair wearing a grey suit. The man with a suit had a face of pure shock as he looked at me. "Lord Death, I believe (y/n) is ready to become a Death sythe."
