"Black Star! You have to stop this, it isn't fair to either one of them!" Tsubaki grabbed her meister by the wrist to stop him from leaving their apartment once more, she just couldn't sit by idly anymore, this jealousy streak of his was getting out of hand and the weapon had long realized that if this continues he was going to be the one to truly get hurt in the end.

"If you don't want to get hurt, let go of me." Tsubaki's eyes widened, she couldn't believe what she was hearing right now. He was threatening her, her own meister was threatening her. The blue eyed girl clenched her fist and grit her teeth, before letting go.

"Fine, but don't say I didn't warn you Black Star." Tsubaki didn't even bother to flinch when the door slammed behind her meister, leaving her to finish getting ready for school. The weapon gave a frustrated scream and tugged at her hair, why couldn't he see it. Why was he trying to so hard when she was right there, she'd always been there for him, and this was how she was treated in the end. Tsubaki gave a defeated sigh and fought the tears stinging her eyes at the moment, and tried to force the lump back down.

The demon weapon wiped her eyes and went to slip on her boots, grab her school bag and like Black Star, left the house. Tsubaki kept her eyes glued to the ground, her mind playing their argument over and over. It wasn't right to either one of them, she knew how much it hurt to have the one you love fall for someone else, but with the way Black Star was headed, it was going to end up in a complete and total disaster and she couldn't bear to see him tear himself up over this, people come and go, and these were just one of those times where you had to let go and move on.

" ...baki, Tsubaki! Hey, earth to Tsubaki!" The demon weapon looked when she heard her name being called and smiled softly when she saw it was just Liz, Patti, Kid and Soul. The eldest Thompson sister frowned, she could tell something was more than a little off with Black Star's weapon and decided she'd question later, away from everyone else.

"Where's Black Star, is he not here again?" Patti asked, looking around for the blue haired assassin meister. Seeing as he wasn't anywhere in sight, Tsubaki sighed and shook her head.

"We got into a fight this morning, so we're not... exactly talking." Soul raised a brow to this and looked to Kid, something was up and sighed. He hadn't seen the assassin since they had the sleepover, and it was more or less becoming a problem because if he didn't show up, he'd never graduate from DWMA.

"I'm sure whatever the altercation was, you two will work through it." Kid reassured with a warm smile, Tsubaki returned the smile and decided to walk with the group, unaware of the hardened gaze watching them from afar. Soul looked from the corner of his eye, something just wasn't right with his best friend and as much as he didn't ponder on the situation too much, the story Tsubaki had told and the note he received earlier this morning were beginning to click into place and he frowned even more.

"Soul, are you okay?" He snapped out of his thoughts when he felt a soft hand on his cheek and turned to see who it was touching him exactly, and gave a soft smile.

"I'm fine, Kiddo." He smiled and ruffled the two toned hair and began to catch up to the group ahead of them, probably realizing they were having a lovey-dovey moment again. Kid reached out for Soul, but stopped and let out a soft sigh, something was on his mind, and knowing his weapon, he was going to keep it a secret until it ate away at him and something happened... bad. Well, he intended to find out one way or another.

"Kid, are you coming or what!?" The Death God jerked his head up to see the group giving him a worried look, and nodded meekly before running to catch up to the other like Soul had done. Kid couldn't put his finger on it but, he had a feeling something terrible was going to happen today.


Tsubaki sighed deeply as she watched Soul get dragged off to Lord Death's office for god knows what punishment now, it wasn't his fault, the other kids had provoked it in the first place with such vulgar comments such as, "faggot." to thing such as "I heard you love sausage, here's one you can eat. Hope you don't choke on it." and from what had to be the worst was, "What's the difference between a gay and a refrigerator? The refrigerator doesn't fart when you pull meat out."

She could see Kid was on the verge of tears as he watched Soul get dragged off to see Lord Death, but she knew he knew better than to interfere with a punishments his father dealt out, the demon weapon could see Kid visibly shaking as he was now trying to be lead away by Liz and Patti, as it even took Maka and Crona to finally pull him away. She truly felt bad for Kid and Soul, not even a day and trouble was already beginning for the two.

"Whoa, what happened here?" Tsubaki jumped and turned around to see none other than her meister, Black Star, standing there, hands stuffed in his pocket as he looked at the broken and bloodied students being carried to the nurses office.

"Why should it matter to you, at least I don't interfere with other's love lives." Tsubaki snapped at the assassin, and turned to walk off. This was truly a new low for the meister, a new low.

"Yeah whatever. You wouldn't understand it anyway." He muttered as he looked around, the only one in the hall at this point. Might as well head to class, before he got detention as well... with Soul.

Tsubaki let out a quiet breath as she slipped into the girl's bathroom, god was she so angry with Black Star, how could he do such a thing. He already knew about Kid being treated differently, but to spread his and Soul's personal sex life out there, was crossing the line. She was officially putting her foot down, and taking things into her own hands. But, first she had to find Soul.

~lunch time~

Soul groaned as he wiped the last window down, god he was starving and ready to eat. The albino haired weapon dropped the rag into the bucket of now cold water and stretched his muscles on reflex, knowing well his arms and shoulders were going to be sore later on. Maybe he could get Kid to massage them later, after a hot shower. The scythe looked around seeing nobody else was around and just assumed he could go since he was done, Soul grabbed the bucket and began his trek to return it to dump the water out and return the bucket to its proper place.

"Man I'm starving." He groaned as he turned the corner, the sooner he got this done, the faster he could get food and begrudgingly catch up on the class work he's missed. The weapon rolled his eyes when he caught a couple making out in the hall, and by the looks of it, it was getting pretty heated. It was none of his business to really butt in on things like that, but to do it right out in the open was just something that shouldn't have to be seen.

Yet, he couldn't place his finger on it. Something was off about this couple, he couldn't bring himself to move from where he was standing, his grip on the bucket tightening before it fell from his hand with a clatter causing the shorter male to turn his head around, leaving the face of a very flushed and disheveled meister exposed...
