"Yes...Those two need to strengthen their souls more, but once they do, they'll be a powerful pair," Stein said and grinned. "What I wouldn't give to study them closely..." he said with a glint in his eye. In other words he would love to dissect them.
~~~
Ed put his glove back on and nodded. "Yeah...It happened in an accident, and a pretty bad one at that.
Maka looked down at her feet. "I see... I'm sorry about that."
Ed shook his head. "Don't be. What's done is done."

Roy shuddered. "Umm... right... I think I'm going to lock my door tonight, thanks for that..."
~~~
"Uh huh. Maka and I have had our trials and tribulations, so we get it." Soul nodded in agreement. He lifted up his jacket to show a scar that went from his right shoulder to his left hip.
Al gasped, "Ouch! What happened there!?"
"Me doing my job as a weapon, that's what happened."

Stein grinned and slapped Mustang on the back. "Well you keep up the good work! I'm going back to my lab," he said and rolled away.
~~~
Maka hugged herself, still not able to get over what had happened that night.
Ed shrugged. 'I wonder if anything like that will happen to us? No matter... I must protect Al at all times...' he thought, just as a loud crash came from the room next to them, making him jump.
"WHEN WILL YOU DO IT RIGHT!? AGAIN!!!" the yell of Izumi Curtis sounded.
"Guess this is Teacher's room...Heh..." Ed said, sweat dropping.

Al opened the door to see Ling huddled in the corner, with his hands on his head. "N-No more! P-Please!"
"Uhh... Teacher? Is this a bad time?"
From the seats, a boy with pink hair looked at Alphonse. "Oh dear, more new students. I don't know how to handle that..."
"Yikes..." Soul winced, "We have her next?"

Izumi huffed and turned to look at who entered the classroom. "Oh hello, Edward. Alphonse..." she said and sat down, picking up her book from her desk. Apparently there was a dark aura around the woman from irritation.
"Oh! Chrona! You're in this class too?" Maka asked, walking over to the boy. "Ms. Curtis isn't scaring you too bad, is she?"
Ed glared at the boy hiding in the corner. "Still being a wuss? It figures..." Ed muttered with a 'humph!' at the end. There was then a throwing star that flew by Ed's cheek and planted itself into the wall.
"Don't speak of Master Ling like that!" Lan Fan growled, going over to help Ling up.

"Lan Fan, seriously, it's okay." Ling grumbled as she helped him up to his feet.
Chrona shook his head, "N-No, not really Maka-chan. Sh-She was scarier than Miss Curtis..."
"I can imagine," Soul sighed, "And she was you mother."
Al walked over to his teacher and put his hands behind his back, "How're you feeling? It's been a while, yeah?"

Lan Fan bowed to Ling. "Young Lord, I don't think she's treating you fairly. If you want to drop out of this class then you should do so. Don't bow your head to someone so low..."
Izumi suddenly snapped her book shut, her aura turning red and eyes glowing with rage. "If you want to drop out of this class then go ahead!! I can do nothing more for an idiot like you!" she yelled, suddenly stopping short as she spit up blood, answering Al's question.
"Teacher!" Ed yelled and ran over to Izumi, digging out a handkerchief for her to wipe off the blood. "Still sick, huh?"
Izumi took the handkerchief. "Thanks, Edward. I'm fine..."
Maka nodded to Chrona. "Don't worry, Chrona. I'll make sure no one harms you," she said and looked at Izumi. "Oh my! Is she okay?"

"Second time today..." Chrona whimpered.
Al frowned, "Maybe you should lie down for a bit, Teacher."
Ling glared at Izumi, "No way, Lan Fan. If I'm going to the Emperor, then I've got to get stronger. This school is the only way."
"Heh, then good luck," Soul said to Ling with a smile, "This place will chew you up and spit you back out if you're not careful. But it's certainly done a lot for Maka and I, so I think you'll be fine."
Ling smiled back, "Thanks. I'm Ling Yao by the way."
"I heard. I'm Soul Evans."

"No...I'm fine..." Izumi said and stood up, walking over to Ling.
Lan Fan suddenly put herself in front of Ling in case Izumi was going to do something.
Izumi just stopped and stood before them. "Good. I'm glad to hear it..." she said, looking at Ling. "Then will you try again? Face your fears?"
Ed shrugged, looking at the floor covered in blood. He felt Izumi was pushing herself too much, but she would never listen to them.
Maka stared at Izumi and the two other students. 'She has a very strong soul. Almost as strong as Professor Stein's. But she also looks very ill...' she thought.

Ling nodded, "Yeah... one more time." But he was interuppted before he could get back in the game.
"THE INFAMOUS BLACK STAR IS HERE! LING YAO, I CHALLENGE YOU, MY NEW RIVAL!" In his hands was Tsubaki in her kurisigama form.
Soul sighed, "Bad timing there, buddy."
"Oh no," Chrona moaned, "Not another fight!"

Izumi nodded, ready to attack him again but stopped, glaring at the interruption. After a few moments of glaring at Black Star, she then grinned. "Hmmm... You know, having someone at a lower level fight Ling may not be such a bad idea," she said then stepped aside. "Fine, I will observe the fight and judge you on how well you perform," she said and sat down.
Ed sweat dropped. "Does this guy pick fights with EVERYBODY?" he mumbled to Soul.

"Pretty much..." Soul sweatdropped.
Black Star jumped for joy, "YAHOO!! Prepare yourself, Ling Yao! I'll be the one to take you down! Not that old hag over there!"
Ling's eyes grew wide, "Uh oh..." He knew what was coming. He had made a similar mistake earlier.
"B-Brother...? Is Black Star going to die now?" Al asked, shaking in his boots.
"You shouldn't have said that..." Chrona said, twiddling his fingers, "You're a goner..."

"Oh yeah... he's gonna die..." Ed said and hid behind a desk.
Izumi suddenly stood up, stomping her foot. "OOOOOOLD HAAAAAAAAAAG!?" she yelled and thrusted her palm into Black Star's stomach, releasing her soul wavelength and hurtling him through the already broken window.
Tsubaki transformed back to normal before she too flew out the window. "Oh, Black Star... You have to learn to respect your elders..."
Maka slapped her palm to her face. "Oh dear..."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaa....." Black Star screamed as he was he was thrown 30 feet.
Ling sighed and slumped down onto the floor, "Well... I'm glad I didn't have to do that..."
"You still have to go one-on-one with Teacher though..." Al said sheepishly.
"Yeah, but that's better than going at it with that guy. Totally not worth it."
"Actually," Soul started, "He's a pretty decent fighter. Just ask Ed and Al."
"You fought Black Star?" Chrona asked the two Elrics.

Ed nodded. "Yeah, we ended up in a draw..." he said and shrugged. "The guy's kind of an idiot though..."
"Humph!" Izumi said, brushing her hands together and turned to the others. "Forget what I said about fighting him, let's get back to what we were doing," she said to Ling. "Are you ready?" she asked, getting her wavelength attack ready again.
Lan Fan turned to Ling. "I'm ready, Young Lord."
