Hige paused, wondering if he should tell Jerrica that it had taken him nearly working himself to death and his mother practically kicking him out of the house to get him here. He decided that he would, if they were to be partners they would need to be honest with each other. "My mother has a weak immune system, which she passed on to most of us. Except for me. So of course, when an illness spread through our neighborhood, I was the only one in our family to catch it. The doctor's said it was because I was working myself so hard trying to help my mother. One of my friends told my mother about my dream of coming here, because they were worried about me working myself to death. My mother had to nearly disown me to get me out of the house and come here. Don't get me wrong, I wanted to, but I didn't want to leave them."
He turned away when he said the last part, feeling a little shy about telling Jerrica all this. Potential partners or not, they were still practically strangers. But he felt he could trust her, yet another thing that made Hige feel that they were meant to be partners.
Jerrica was fascinated, seeing similarities between both of their stories. She had told her own but she wasn't sure if she should or not... She lived on the streets, scrounging for food, doing anything to keep her siblings alive. How do you explain that you sold your body off so you could get the next meal for your family. She was hesitant to tell him because she let her guard down when she told about her past. Some parts of the past she didn't want to remember.
"We have a lot of similarities between stories. I lived on the streets with my siblings Dallas and Mary. It was hard and I did everything I could to get food for the next meal. Everything. I had to, I couldn't just let them starve."
She looked away from the boy this time, trying to not make contact. Just think of her brother and sister during that time made her so angry. She was angry at herself though. She was the one that got them out on the streets. Mom died and gave all the money to her good for nothing father. When she asked him to stay, he replied that Jerrica was a good for nothing bitch, just like her mother. She pleaded for him to take Dallas and Mary but he refused. All because of Jerrica, her brother and sister went close to starvation sometimes and that made her angry and disappointed at herself.
"Sorry... I didn't mean to dig up any old wounds..." Skylar smiles at Misano and shacks his head. "Doesn't matter, its not like Skyler or me are trying to hide them or anything and plus. If your gunna be our meister, its best you know everything about us right?" He smiles more as he takes a glace down and see's a boy talking to the girl who was looking at him and now the boy looked at him. He looked back at Misano wondering if they though he was weird cause he was wearing a stray jacket or something. Skylar then read her long note about her past as he sigh a little and shacks his head. He then looks at Misano and smiles at her. "Skyler and I both agree that you don't have to shoulder out pain. We are the weapon, its our job to protect the meister. So let us shoulder your pain, and will protect you. He looks at Misano as he notice her shoulders where shacking lightly. He then grabs her hand and pulls her into a hug as he hugs her tight, but softly. HE the whispers talking to him self forget that Misano could hear him whisper since he was hugging her. "Shut up Skylar, you know you like her too. Don't be jealous cause I get to hug her.....ow...ow....okay sorry.... He winces a little as skyler was yelling from inside Skylar head to his remark about him liking Misano.
Kelly smiled at the boy before nodding towards him. "Okay, let's be partners.", she said to him and listening quietly as he seemed to talk to himself. He was just to cute! Following his line of eyesight she found him staring at the boy with two souls. Pressing her hands to her mouth to hide the small chuckle that tried to break free she motioned with her other hand towards the boy who also seemed to be talking with a female meister. "You should go talk to him if that's what you want, no point in just staring. That makes you a creeper.", she commented at the boy before looking back at her work and began to doodle slightly in the margins.
The boy was nice but she knew when people had had enough of her quiet demeanour and she was simply giving the guy an out and a chance to go talk to me people in case he felt obligated to remain talking with her now they were partners. "Oh, And archer. I'm a Crossbow, just in case you were wondering. ", she commented to the boy having expected him to be turning to leave or something of the sorts, shortening his middle name and sending him a quick, encouraging smile.
"Thank you, Skylar... You too Skyler..."
Something else that had surprised her was when he saw Misano shaking, he hugged her. A warm blush came across her face. She was speechless for a minute before returning the hug.
'I... I think this is the first time I've genuinely felt happy. It feels nice...'
She then heard Skylar arguing with himself. Something about Skyler being jealous. Misano felt a grin enter her face as she wrote with her free hand.
"Seems like the tough guy act is just a front. I bet Skyler's a big softie~"
Misano made no effort to get away. She felt comfortable. She then saw a boy with blonde hair staring at Skylar. Grinning she wrote the boy a note.
"Hey, don't be a stranger~ Come on over!"
"Oh...Okay." he slightly blushed for an unknown reason and nodded. Not to shyly he turned to the green haired girl, Kellen? No her name ended in a y...Kelly? Yes Kelly. "I love Crossbows!" he said walking over to the other two. His face kind of opened wide and his eyes were turning a dull golden. "Hiya!" he said smiling not being able to stop taking glanced at the two souls in one person. He then bowed very clumsily and fell face first into the floor. He got back up and smiled. "Are you shy?" he asked the girl who at first gance he had thought was a guy...his face was in a forever smile.
"Thank you, Skylar... You too Skyler..." Skylar shacks his head as he looks toward her and speaks softly. "You don't have to thank us, its what he ware here for." He smiles as he heard her writing again. He looks at the paper and he grinned. Before he could reply, Skyler yelled switch. Skylar sighed as he then moved the eye patch back. He then backed up a little so his face was now in front of hers. HE was still hugging her though, "What did I tell you! Don't get the wrong idea got it! He sighs trying to play it off and still look cool. His ears perked up as he then heard foot steps walking his way. He then let go of the hug of Misano, but he kept one arm around her as he held her close still not realizing it as he then faced the boy walking up to him. It was the boy that was staring at him before. Skyler sighed wondering what this kid wanted.
The boy got up to them has he said "Hiya!" and then gave a smile, before he tried to bow and ended up falling on his face. Skyler looked toward Misano as he gave the face. 'Is this kid for real? or just messin?' He sighed as he looks back to the boy as he stood up straight and looked toward Misano now. He then asked her "Are you shy?" Skyler couldn't help but laugh. He then grinned as he looked at the boy. "Shy? haha thats really funny, this girl likes to talk big, Ill watch what you say around her." Skyler then looks toward Misano as he laughs as he sures in his way he was messing with her. He then looks toward the boy again. "Any way, mind telling me why you and i am gussing your partner was staring at me? You guys think its weird I am wearing a stray jacket or something? Skyler couldn't help it by the way he talk.It was just the way he is.
"What did I tell you? Don't get the wrong idea, got it?"
Misano was ready to write a comeback when the blonde boy she invited to come over came. His eyes were starting to turn gold and his face was a permanent smile. He tried to bow... but fell on his face. Misano was worried before she saw him get up and speak.
"Are you shy?"
Misano blinked.
'A world of first times are happening today...'
She heard Skyler laugh.
"Shy? Haha, that's really funny. This girl likes to talk big. I'll watch what you say around her."
Misano silently laughed.
"Yeah, I'm anything but shy. I'm just mute. It's fine by me though."
Misano then heard Skyler ask what he was doing staring at him. Misano blinked before thinking of a reason as well.
"Hang on, let me guess... You're interested in Skyler and Skylar because of their two souls. Did I get it?"
It was then that Hige realized he didn't know whether she was a weapon or a meister. He really hoped they weren't both meisters because then they could be partners. They could still be friends though and he was certain that they would be. As much as he wanted to know what she was, he didn't say anything. His desire to not ruin the moment outweighed his desire to learn. But just this once.
Jerrica tried not to show emotion most of the time but with this person it was different. She saw something different in this boy.
"The only difference is that I got lucky and you didn't."
She looked at him, her piercing silver eyes gazing into his eyes as if they were examining his soul. He seemed to actually care unlike his father but she still could hear her father's voice yelling at her.
"What now?"
She questioned the boy confidently, keeping her emotions held back as she leaned back on the desk and uncrossed then crossed her legs again. Her legs now sat even closer to the boy, she seemed to have no regards for personal space, but that just wasn't her nature.
"Actually I was wondering....why do you have two souls?" he asked spotting it. He smiled as he spun around aimlessly. He had the feeling the red soul wasn't the only voice in there. Maybe he had a mental disability. Styxx, probably would never know. He seemed cool though, but he had Kelly as his partner. He was ready to become a meister. He just had to match their soul wavelengths.

Skyler looks at the boy as his eye narrows a little. "You don't know how to hold back on any qeustions you know? Well any way if you must know. We don't have two souls in our body. It might look like it but its not. Its all one soul. The only thing is Skylar and me have different minds just one body. So think of it this way. It me talking now and Skylar is like a inner thought. Then its the same when skylar is talk and I am the inner thought. Skyler sighs a little as he looks toward Misano and then back towards the boy and then the boy's partner who is still where she was. He then waves to her to come over. HE then turns his attechine to the boy. "You know leaving your partner alone is rude. If your gunna talk to someone else at least bring her with you to join in the conversation. hm!?" Skyler sighed as Skylar wanted to switch in. Skyler then moved the eye patch as skylar was now there. "Hi, sorry about Skyler attitude. He gets possessive and protective. He looks at Misano and smiles laughing a little. "But what he said about us is true. It looks like we have two souls, but it really is one."
Misano smiled a bit at that.
'So he's one of those considerate types, huh? I'm learning more and more about my partner every time I see him~'
Skylar then came out, apologizing for Skyler's blunt attitude.
"He gets possessive and protective."
Misano was a bit curious.
'What did Skyler have to get possessive about? I get the protective part because he was probably protecting Skylar but who was he possessive about...?'
Shrugging it off, Misano looked at the blonde.
"I never did introduce myself, did I? I'm Misano Amane; a Meister just like you. He's my partner Skylar. The first guy you talked to was Skyler. Nice to meet you~"
Misano smiled warmly.
"So, you enjoying yourself here in Death Weapon Meister Academy?"
She tilted her head curiously.
"Yes, and no." he spoke to Misano, he then turned towards Skyler and Skylar. "Well, to be honest. She is shy so I figured she didn't want to come over. Kelly!!" he waved to her and shouted her name. He glanced at Skyler and Skylar again. "Is it weird being in the same body? Why are you in the same body? Can't you just separate into two equal pieces? Oh, and Misano I'm Styxx...But I'm pretty sure you should call me Acheron I kind of go into a rage when people call me Styxx. "Oh, and I like love the classes but most teachers are mean." he said with a smile.
