Prologue
"Ahh! I can't wait to get out of this place!" Blackstar yelled as he stretched, making his bones crack.
"You're making DMWA sounds horrible Blackstar." Liz said as she carried her backpack in one shoulder while Patty is happily skipping next to her.
"No, I don't." Blackstar replied, we all looked at him and he just raised an eyebrow, there was this long silence, all thinking what to say or how to change the subject.
"Why… Good afternoon guys." We all turned to look at the owner of that voice, but even without looking I already know it was him. "KID!" Patty squeals while jumping on Kid for a bear hug. "Oh, and I miss you too Patty." He said with a smile, a smile that would make any girl melt, even the very heart I keep on protecting. Liz smiled at the scene and walks toward the new Death Lord and her sister, she both gave the two a hug. I smiled at the scene that was unfolding, it had already been weeks since Kid became the new Shinigami, and he was often busy and rarely comes home according to the twin pistol.
"Are you going home tonight Kid?" Patty asked, and that is when I noticed the attire he was wearing, He was wearing the Spartio uniform, No Skull Mask on the head and Black Cloak over his shoulder. It was nostalgic, "Yeah, since I had cleared all of my appointments for the next couple of days. I feel like I need to spend more time with the people I care about."
"Ohh Kid, You don't have to! We completely understand why you are busy these days!" Liz said while stopping her tears and holding onto Patty. "Please, I insist. You two are my family…" He smiled then turns to look at us. "and I honestly want to spend time with the people I deeply care about." With that, we all smiled.
"HAHAHAHA! I KNEW YOU CAN'T CONDEM YOURSELF TO MY GODLY PRESENCE! VERY WELL! WITH THAT I DECLARE WE SHOULD ALL GO AND PLAY BASKETBALL!" Blackstar blurted out, and for rare occasions. We all agree.
"Oh wait! I just need to get a textbook at my locker." I quickly said, remembering I need to read a specific chapter I got glued upon. "Maka, the ever bookworm." Soul said while smirking at me, I stick my tongue out at him and proceeded to my locker. The gang was chattering who knows what topic until they all stopped – we all stopped and stood there in silence, staring at the not moving offender. "What the heck is that Maka?!" Soul screamed while pointing at it as the other girls scream like fangirls or what. "Ohhhh! Someone Likes M-A-K-A!" Patty said in a sing-sang voice.
"I can't believe it! Someone likes Miss Tiny-Tits!" Blackstar said while rubbing his eyes to make his statement more exaggerated.
"Come on guys, this might just be an empty piece of colored paper." I said, picking up the colored pink offender.
"Oh! For the Love of Death Maka! Just look at it! It is an elegant colored pink card with a ribbon and little hearts! It is clearly a Love letter! Err… Card!" Liz said exasperated, I look at the gang. Soul glaring, Patty Laughing, Tsubaki holding the most fangirl grin I ever seen, Blackstar dumfounded, Liz grinning, and Kid…. Nothing? Wait cross that out, His eyebrow is slightly raised like in annoyance? I don't know. I sigh in defeat. "Fine, I'm going to read or look at it so you guys can be quite." I said about to turn the card when "DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO WOMAN! NOT JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE LIKES YO-umhp!" Blackstar could never finish his words as a pissed ofF Tsubaki smacked him in the head, we are all shock with this. Never in our life we ever think that Tsubaki would be P-I-S-S-E-D. "Blackstar please be quite…" then she turns to me and said "please continue Maka" and turning into a thousand watt smile.
I smiled uneasily but continued, Note: Don't make the suspense unbearable for Tsubaki. I gulped as I feel some black Aura surrounding some of my friends. I can't pinpoint who and I am not daring to look. I turned to the card and just saw two hearts intertwined with an arrow, with that I feel like my eardrums are bleeding due to the screams of the girls or more like Liz and Tsubaki.
"See! WE TOLD YOU IT'S A LOVE LETTER CARD! KYAAAAHHH!' Liz and Tsubaki said with a high-pitched voice. "Y-yeah" was all I could say but still not dare to look. I opened the card and my world just stop, my blood rushing to every nerve I have in my body as it runs cold, Rage building up and black aura surrounds my body.
'WHAT ON EARTH IS THHIIIIIIIIISSSSS?!" I screamed on top of my lungs almost like a War cry. The gang was confused with my outburst and Blackstar seems to be the first one to snap out of it. He grabs the piece of trash from me, takes a look then starts to laugh on the floor like a hysterical person, Soul seems confused with this grabs the card and started to laugh along with Blackstar, now there are maniacs laughing on the floor like there is no tomorrow. I swear if I ever see that guy I would rip him to pieces! I was fuming all over the place, the girls who are now conscious are starring at the card with emotions I dare not say.
"FOOL!" Excalibur said as he twist his crane and on top of my locker. "YOU… YOU…. YOU! I'LL KILL YOU!" I scream, I was about to tackle him but strong arms had finds it way wrapping around me, holding me back, back pressing on hard chest, I was so pissed I didn't care who that person was. "Maka, please calm down" His voice suddenly bring shivers down to my spine as I half calmed and turn to look at the owner – Kid! I was about to say something when the pink offender had made its way to Kid's face. He grabs it, scanning it at every corner. "Excalibur, what is the meaning of this?" Kid asked in a monotone voice yet an eyebrow is twitching. In the card was a picture of Excalibur with little angel wings, holding his crane to the sky like his normal poses in a heart shape, and underneath it was written in a Monotype Corsiva Font was: F-O-O-L.
"FOOL! I shall be your Cupid!" He said while pointing the end of his crane right in my face.
