School First Training Second

Fade's p.o.v.

After Lord Death gave Kid and I a long lecture of why we should stop fighting I went back to my room and put on my jacket deciding to go out for the day. I went over to my window and opened it climbing out and summoned my skateboard and floated to the ground on it then took off going to the mall. Shopping spree day! Yep, I left Noire alone at the house she probably had plans with James anyways. So I arrived at the mall and shopped for clothes. I bought Noire, Kid, Liz, Patti, and Lord Death something each. This took up over a few hours. I sat down at the food court and rested there for a bit checking out all the hot guys near by. I am in luck, there is a whole group of them a few feet away talking with each other.... Wait a minute. SHIT. They noticed me staring. I looked away blushing and took out my phone pretending to be busy on it.

"Hey." I looked up as one of the guys stood right in front of me and smirked. He had his hands in his pockets and sort of looked relaxed as he leaned a weird way.

"H...HI." I blushed and bit my bottom lip watching him.

"Noticed you sitting here all alone, why don't you come hang out with my friends and I over there, you will have a great time." Wait a minute, I feel like I seen this part in a scary movie where the stupid blonde chick goes and hangs out with a group of guys but ends up getting murdered viciously and a few other things happened as well.

"No thanks." I stood up and grabbed my bags. "I have to meet my boyfriend at my car in about three minutes. Good bye." I just blew him off, bet that never happened to him before because his jaw is dropping and he is looking a bit pale. I made my way past him and his group of friends and walked off to a victorious secret store so they wouldn't have the courage to follow me in. I stayed in the store for a few minutes till I figured they found another girl to stalk and I walked out exiting the mall. You always should play it safe. I summoned the skateboard and arrived back home after a boring ride. it is really hard to hold bags and skate at the same time.

"Hey Fade. Where did you go, get me anything?" Kid asked me as he held the front door open for me.

"Yeah, I went shopping." I put the bags down and picked up one and gave him the pink shirt I bought him. On the front it says: Pink is a manly color.

"UH...Are you serious?" I nodded and picked up the other bags going upstairs to my bedroom. He followed behind me. "But, it is pink..." I giggled.

"Read the front doofus." He got quiet as he stopped walking then I heard him hit the ground, most likely dying, the stripes are not even. I put the bags down on my bed and took Patti and Liz their bags before I went to Noire's room and knocked on her door.

"Who is it? You better not be Kid again."

"No, it is Fade." I walked in and sat the bag down on her bed. "I got you something."

"Fade! You're back! I can leave my room now without Kid getting Liz to ask me questions! Thank goodness! So what is it?" She sat up on her bed and looked at me.

"It is shoes." I smirked and watched her take them out of the bag, I got her high heels that were in the latest style apparently...

"Oh my gosh! These are so pretty! Thanks Fade!" She hugged me and giggled. "Guess I don't have an excuse to keep wearing my combat boots with my skirts. I will have to find another reason now, but I will still wear these too! Thank you!"

"No problem, I think you will enjoy being taller." I laughed and went back to my room before she could hit me.

"I'M NOT SHORT!" she shouted as she followed me. Kid sat up and looked at her.

"What'd she say Fade? I thought I just heard her say.... no can't be." I giggled and blushed as I ignored him and sat down on my bed while Noire closed the door behind her.

"Are you tired Fade?" She sat down next to me and looked at me.

"Are you?"

"Might be, might not be. Plus it gets me away from that idiot in the hall. He still keeps asking me if I forgave him yet."

"Well I am a bit tired we could go to sleep after I put my new clothes and shoes up."

"Ok. You go do that.... I'll just wait." She yawned and laid down. I put the clothes and shoes up then crawled into bed with her.

"So tell me what all happened while I was gone."

"I found you missing, didn't say anything and went to my room. Kid found out a few minutes later and pushed Liz into my room to get her to ask me where you went. I said I didn't know. Kid made her messenger for any other question he wanted to know. I left my room, and he followed me. Kid asked if I forgave him yet. I punched him in the face. Of course I didn't do it hard at all, but enough to where Kid got the message without getting too hurt. After that I stayed in my room listening to Kid yell on the other side about how I'm a big baby." She sighed and snuggled up to me.

"Wow, I should take that shirt back I bought him...or better yet, make him wear it to school tomorrow."

"Hey, it's no big deal. Kid's a baby too, and I would have told him that as well if I hadn't decided to give him the silent treatment."

"Well he is stupid. I think I can go back to school tomorrow my wound is healing up fast and I feel perfectly fine."

"Ok. You better do your homework or Stein will stick you in detention." She closed her eyes and started to try to go to sleep. DAMN IT I FORGOT.

"Yeah you are right." I sat up and picked up the work and started to read over it and do the questions and worksheets. When I finished Noire had done passed out and I sat them down by me. What the hell is up this Stein asking 'A sound _ dwells within a sound _ and a sound _ .' It is such a weird question. I don't think it could get much easier then that. Maka always mumbles that stupid saying. Noire put her arm on me in her sleep. I turned onto my side and curled up to her closing my eyes and fell asleep with her.

Noire's p.o.v.

I woke up to Fade opening her bathroom door coming out from a shower in her jacket. "What are you doing? Go back to sleep silly." I mumbled and shut my eyes.

"We ha- well you have to get ready for school I am almost ready." I smiled.

"What's this school nonsense? Just come back to bed already." I put my face into my pillow and started to go back to sleep.

"Noire, we have school today remember. DWMA, training." I looked up at her.

"What the hell are you speaking? I think you said something about a school and.... training?" I sat up.

"Yes, school first training later."

"But we don't go to scho- Oh.... I'm sorry Fade!" I hopped out of bed and rushed to my room grabbing a white polo shirt and black skinny jeans. "I can't believe I forgot about school! What planet am I from? Planet loser? I guess! Jeez!" I put them on and grabbed my combat boots and put them on. I brushed my teeth and brushed my hair out. "No time to do my hair! Got to go before I'm late!" I grabbed a hairband and put it on my wrist for later. I ran into the living room and grabbed my bag and my keys, putting my cellphone in my pocket. I ran into the hall. "Fade! Wanna ride with me?" I ran down the stairs and tripped close to the bottom. "Owwww!" I stood up brushing myself off and realized that I wasn't alone. Kid was still here.

"Hey Noire, you do realize we don't have but like half an hour left before school starts right?" I looked at him and ran into the kitchen grabbing three cookies and ran back out shoving on into my mouth and handing the other to Kid.

"Fade! I need to know now! My motorcycle or the skateboard?"

"I want a ride with you!" Fade said as she entered the room from the stairs.

"Here." I handed the cookie to her and looked back at Kid who was staring at the cookie in his hand. "You are supposed to eat it." I turned around.

"Thanks Noire." Fade smiled and hugged me as she ate hers and Kid walked off eating his. "Hold on and let me go get the homework and then I will be ready to go." She went upstairs then came back down with a bookbag and went to the front door. "Okay let's go."

"Ok!" I ran over to her wondering what was wrong with Kid. Why is he acting like that? Did I do so- oh.... I forgot about that too huh? I said I wouldn't talk to him anymore..... I'm gonna have to do something about that, but how do you take something like that back? I've punched him in the face too.... He's right. I am acting like a big baby, and he's probably confused about that cookie.... Oops.

I climbed onto my bike handing Fade her helmet and drove off with her clinging onto me. We got to the stairs. "Alright Fade. It's gonna be the first day going all the way up the stairs for you." I got off.

"Hey Noire. transform." Fade summoned her skateboard. "I am not climbing this death trap every morning."

"O-ok." I transformed into my sword, and she flew up to the top landing. I turned back into a human. "You should turn around Fade really. Look, it's so pretty!" I pointed to Death City, but she wasn't paying attention.

"IT...IT...IT'S PERFECT SYMMETRY!" she fell to her knees and cried. "NOOOOOOOOO!"

"Fade, calm down. Look!" I ran over to the school and took out my pencil and made a mark on the wall. "Now it isn't!" I turned around and looked at her. It didn't do much for her. It's not enough....

"YAHOO! WHAT'S GOT YOU DOWN FADE?" Black Star finished walking up the staircase and went over to her.

Fade's p.o.v.

Why would Lord Death do something so cruel to me, suggest me to go here! Oh the horror. I will not spend the rest of my days here I have had enough of all the symmetry in death city, the manor and now here too?!? I won't allow it. Where is a can of spray paint when you need it? I looked over at the amazing Black Star as he dropped to his knees catching his breath. What happened did he run up the stairs or something? OH MY. Th....damn that view is amazing! I had looked past the blue haired boy and to the amazing view of Death City. I could get use to this...

"Well?" Black Star asked as he stood up facing the breath taking view.

"The school is symmetrical and she don't like symmetry." I heard Kid tell Black Star.

"She don't like symmetry, eh? Well I can fix this place up for her liking." I turned around watching Black Star go ninja mode and run up the building and knocked one of the spikes off making Kid go ape shit and run after Black Star out of anger.

"GET BACK HERE YOU COWARD!!! YOU AREN'T SO AMAZING TO BE RUNNING LIKE THAT! FACE ME RIGHT NOW! YOU BASTARD! STOP BREAKING THE SPIKES! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID IT AGAIN!!!! AHHHHHH! IT'S ASYMMETRICAL! NOOOO! NOT MY BELOVED SCHOOL! THE HORROR! BLACK STAR!!!!!" Kid eventually fell to his knees when he couldn't get Black Star who was laughing. Then it dawned on him.

"Don't call me a coward Kid! I'm the amazing Black Star! I can't believe you called me that when I thought we finally became friends!" He ran off crying to me. "Faaaade! Your brother is mean!"

"Yeah, you just figured that out?" I giggled and turned back around seeing Tsubaki, Soul, and Maka coming up the stairs now halfway. "HEY GUYS HOPE YOU MAKE IT TO CLASS ON TIME!" I yelled down to them.

"Speaking of class, Fade come on!" Noire grabbed my arm and dragged me into the school pulling out a piece of paper and looking at it from time to time. She finally stopped in front of a room and walked in. "Hey Stein! I got Fade here this time!" Noire smiled cheerfully at Stein.

"Hey Noire. Hey Fade. Fade, did you do your homework?" He turned to me crossing his arms.

"Y..Y..Y.Y.Y.YES I did." He looks scary when he is in doubt. I took out the papers and handed them over then smirked.

"Every blank." I looked around the classroom, where to sit? Noire went and sat down in a spot like it was no problem and that was her spot.

"Yes I did Stein." I went over to Noire and sat down by her. Black Star stormed into the room and sat down on Steins desk.

"WHATS' UP STEIN?????" I crossed my arms and watched.

"Get off my desk." Stein said calmly.

"YA, Hello Stein I need to talk to you about the picture sent to me last night by Spirit." Stein went pale as he kicked Black Star off the desk.

"W...W..What picture do you mean sir?"

"The one where you are tied to a bed." Noire, Black Star and I busted out laughing. Stein shrunk a little.

"You just had to bring that back up..." He muttered. "I am going to murder Spirit." Why would Spirit have a picture of something like that? I swear they are gay for each other.

"HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA STEIN YOU WERE TIED UP TO A BED?" Black Star asked and Stein shot him a death glare. Yep he is definitely dead.

"Well that explains why Sid was babysitting instead of Stein and Spirit." Kid pointed out as he walked into the room. Noire looked confused.

"Sid was at the manor last night? I never saw him..... Oh yeah, I was hiding in my room the whole time.... So Spirit and Stein did something last night? I guess I was right about them being gay." She looked down at Stein as Spirit came into the room.

"Oh Stein, I got us coffee and some biscuits!" Spirit sang as entered holding up the bag of food.

"What is going on in here?" Maka walked in looking around. "Dad?!? What are you doing here?!? Go back to the Death Room with Lord Death! I don't want you here!" She pointed to the door.

"Too bad Maka I was here first." He pointed out and smiled happily and handed Stein the bag. "Thought we could eat together and- why is everyone staring at us..."

"MAKA YOUR DAD IS GAY WITH STEIN!" Black Star shouted.

"MY DAD ISN'T GAY! HE GOES TO CHUPACABRAS JUST ABOUT EVERYDAY!!!!!" Maka turned on Black Star and hit him with her book. "MAKA CHOP!" Spirit paled and looked at Stein. Stein looked at Spirit glaring.

"I told you not to send it Spirit. I told you. Maybe I SHOULD burn your doll in front of everyone." Stein went over to Spirit and reached into his pocket taking out what looked like....Maka? A Maka doll?

"NOOOOO GIVE ME BACK MY MAKA DOLL OR YOU CAN FORGET ABOUT BREAKFAST." Spirit reached for it but Stein held him back with his foot as he took out a lighter. What the hell is happening?

"I told you not to send it. I told you to unchain me. I told you not to dissect me too. At least you sort of listened to the last one even though you held a knife to my chest. I'm going to burn this doll. I mean it Spirit." He started to get the lighter to light.

"All right you two break it up." Lord Death commanded. "Give him back the Maka doll." Maka stared in horror at the doll.

"What is dad doing with a little doll that looks like me, and why is Stein trying to burn it?" She sat down holding her head confused.

"Dang it I was so looking forward to destroying it." Stein handed over the doll to Spirit then Lord Death cleared his throat.

"YOU TWO, DEATH ROOM. Now." Lord Death, Stein, and Spirit exited the room.

"Great, who is our teacher now?" I giggled as everyone started to come in.

"That would be me." Kid started to stand up but a knife was thrown at him.

"Sit down mister. I'm the teacher for today now." A blue person walked in. "I'm Sid, and yes, I'm a zombie." He went to the middle of the room. "Class starts... now." The bell went off. "I was always a man who would start class right when the bell rang. Open your textbooks to page 390. Today we will study souls." Noire looked down at him and whispered.

"But I already read that chapter...." I heard others whisper it and a few other things.

"Fade, I think he needs to pick something else." She whispered to me. "Tell him we already read that yesterday." I nodded and stood up.

"Sid, we already read that, give us something else to do." I put my hands on my hips. Sid turned towards me.

"Who do you think you are to talk to me like that?" Noire's eyes widened. She stood up with me and put her arm in front of me to protect me. Kid stood up.

"Who are you to talk to my sister like that." Kid pointed towards Sid.

"SIT YOUR BUTT DOWN ALL THREE OF YOU." I walked over to the door. "Where do you think you are going?"

"To Lord Death so I can get you fired." I sassed not telling the whole truth and walked out slamming the door shut behind me. The door opened and Noire came out handing me a piece of paper.

"I want this back." She went back into the classroom shutting the door. I followed the map to a bathroom and then fogged up the mirror writing 42-42-564.

"42-42-564 whenever you want, knock on Death's Door." The mirror rippled and Lord Death appeared.

"Ya? What's up sweetie, you are supposed to be in class."

"Sid was getting annoying, when is Stein coming back to class?"

"Very soon, after him and Spirit quit fighting it out in here." He moved over and I seen the two grown men battling it out. "Go back to class."

"But Sid is mean."

"No buts about it."

"He threw a knife at Kid."

"OH HECK NO." He disappeared and a lady's voice appeared on the school's intercom.

"Sid, Zombie Sid report to the Death room. Report to the Death room." I giggled and went back to class.

"I'm back!" I had passed Sid in the hall and he looked a bit frightened.

"Fade!" Noire jumped up out of her seat and ran to give me a hug. "I'm sorry for asking you to tell Sid that! I should have asked Kid!" She wrapped me into a hug, and she cried a little.

"It's all good because I was going to mess with him anyways. Anything to get out of reading from a stupid text book." I giggled and sat down at the teacher's desk. "Free period for everyone." I kicked back laying my feet up onto the desk and smirked.

"So you are really Death the Kid's twin sister?" A girls asked me coming up and I nodded.

"Totally."

"FADE! YOU BETTER BE QUIET!" Kid ran up to me blushing. Noire intercepted Kid and punched him in the face.

"She can say what she wants!" Kid fell to the ground holding his nose.

"Owwwwwww!" Noire looked at him.

"She's your twin. Accept it." She took his arm and hauled him to his feet. "And accept it that I'm done giving you the silent treatment. Sorry about your nose." She pulled his hand away from it to get a look. "Oh quit your whining. I didn't get you that hard. Your nose is ok."

"TSUBAKI!" I waved her over and she came over. "What's upppppp." I giggled and put on Steins extra pair of glasses that were on his desk. "Let's dissect something."

"How about you?" A voice asked from the door. "Put the glasses back and get to your seat. Everyone, settle down now." Oh dang, he is back. I took off his glasses and put them on the desk and followed everyone back to sitting down in the desks.

"Stein so glad to see you back instead of that zombie guy." I cheered.

"Stein, are you done fighting Spirit? I would like to do something other than punch Kid when he tries to do something to Fade." Noire asked.

"No you may not go find Spirit just to punch him. Let me start todays lesson on Souls."

"That's not what I said at all." Noire looked at him. "Please don't say page 390 either."

"No, today we will discuss-" I stopped paying attention after that kicking back in my seat as I looked around the class room. Why are teachers so boring in teacher mode? I glanced down at Stein only to see him about to dissect a- wait.... that's not a what, that's a who. At some point Spirit had walked in and Stein had knocked him out putting him on the table. "Who's ready for a different lesson? I think this one will be interesting to you." He looked up at the class. Maka was staring horrified at Stein.

"Um... Stein, can we NOT dissect my dad? I know that I fight him all the time, but I don't want to see him get dissected...."

"Nope, I really want to teach human anatomy." He laughed evilly. Noire stood up.

"Um Stein.... I probably shouldn't say anything and mind my own business, but I think that we shouldn't dissect Spirit. Lord Death might get upset. Plus.... I don't like looking at people's insides.... It makes me want to throw up just thinking about it...."

"Fine." He kicked the table away as it rolled across the room and he started to write on the board so I looked away. Damn it. More boring teacher mode. He taught us something I am guessing is important to know but I only heard half of it...more like a third of it. I walked out of class following Noire and She stopped when a guy called her name.

Noire's p.o.v.

"Oh hi James! I thought I told you not to wait for me outside of the classroom. I saved your skin last time! I don't think Kid will fall for it again." I smiled at him.

"Who cares about Kid? He's just upset that I am stealing a girl from him. He'll get over it." James walked up to me.

"James, I'm serious. I'll call you later. I don't want to deal with Kid right now. We're lucky he isn't out here yet. Anyways, this is Fade." I gestured to her who was watching us with interest.

"Hello Fade. I guess our little Noire isn't crazy after all." He laughed.

"Noire isn't crazy...you didn't call her crazy did you... hi James." I giggled.

"He thought I was crazy at first Fade." I told her. "Anyways, seriously James, you need to go before a certain someone comes out. Remember last time?"

"Yeah, I remember." He stretched. "Do you want to do something later Noire?" I sighed.

"Stein said that if I sneak out the window, he'll put bars on them. Plus, I can't very well go past everyone to get to the door without them noticing. Apparently my ninja skills are terrible."

"They are. I guess I could help you out though if you want to hang out with James." I turned to look at Fade.

"I'm not dragging you into this. Kid'll kill you." I looked back at James. "I'll figure something out James. Either I will get away with it or not. What matters now is that Kid will be here any second and we'll be screwed." If Kid comes out, I'll have to find a way to make him forget James. He can be so possessive sometimes.

"Kid isn't going to do anything extreme. Look, I can handle myself against him." I sighed and looked at him.

"No you can't." I started to push him down the hallway. "Go before it's too late."

"It's already too late."

"SHIT. Get out of here James!" I shoved him and looked back at Kid and Fade.

"Hey Kid." Fade smiled sweetly.

"What is going on here?" Kid asked crossing his arms.

"Just telling James here that I don't want his apology." I nudged James's foot trying to tell him to go.

"Hey Kid how about we go get some ice cream or something?" Fade asked cheerfully.

"Yeah! Ice cream sounds great right now! Come on Kid! What do you say?" I looked at him smiling following Fade's lead.

"Sure. That sounds good." He smiled and turned to walk away.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU GOING THEN?!?" I shouted after him. "THE WALL WILL HURT MORE HERE THAN AT HOME!" I put my hands on my hips.

"What do you mean? I was going to wait for you two down the hall."

"Oh... never mind." I grabbed Fade and followed Kid ignoring the idiot behind me as I tried to act cheerful. At least I didn't have to hug him or anything to get him to not pay attention to James here.

"Well will you two drive the bike and I will skate or what?"

"Unless Fade wants to give up the spot on the motorcycle voluntarily then yeah, you will ride your skateboard." I walked between Kid and Fade and glanced back over my shoulder at James who was watching me leave.

"Sounds like the plan. If you liked James you should have asked him to come along." Kid joked.

"I was scared that the ice cream would melt from the tension. I'm not stupid Kid. Plus, I'm supposed to be mad at him for calling me sweetie yesterday remember?" My heart rate sped up. Is Kid on to me? No... he can't be... but he might be...

"Just like how you are mad at me for lying, correct."

"About that....." I looked at him nervously. "I.... why are you pointing that out Kid?"

"Well because I can."

"That's a stupid reason." I laughed.

"No it's not."

"Ok, fine. Maybe not if you are Kid. Oh wait... you are, aren't you?"

"Well I am not Patti or Liz."

"No you aren't because I wouldn't have to say this to them: I'm sorry for acting like a brat. There, I said it!" I looked away and studied a wall as we passed it.

"Well I forgive you." He smirked and summoned his skateboard.

"I can't believe I had to say that to Kid...." I looked at Fade. "At least I'm not fighting him anymore right? That reminds me.... Kid! Am I still your nightmare?" I looked back at him.

"No."

"Ok, I won't doodle on your face tonight then." I smirked at him.

"I think you are very weird Noire. You two go get ice cream together I am going home."

"Yay! I succeeded in driving off Kid! I still got it!" I giggled as I grabbed Fade's hand. Kid left us alone.

"Yay! Alone time with Noire." I hugged her after she said that.

"After we get ice cream, do you want to go to the maze? I know you like that place." Kid came back quick.

"Almost forgot ladies, we have training in the gym, starting now."

"Eeeeeek! Run Fade! He's back! Why did you make him our trainer?!?" I yanked her away from Kid and ran towards the stairs. "Come one! Let's ditch him!"
