As my teacher carefully unfolded the note, he read it out loud. "If you think you are better than anyone, you're WRONG! People know your a freak, who starves yourself, cuts, and listen to depressing music. Your music is just like your life, meaningless and depressing!" A single tear rolled down my cheek. Stein pushed away from his desk and came to me and hugged me. "Please tell me? Are any of those things true? Please tell me you aren't causing yourself harm." I started crying harder and shook my head. I've seen myself as pretty and a little imperfect but that didn't matter to me.

Stein let go of me and got me a tissue, "Would you like us to transfer you to a new school?" I had calmed down, few tears rolling down my cheek, "we?"
"Yes we, Lord Death and me." I looked at my feet.
"I just need friends... Someone who would protect me, stand up for me." Dr.stein didn't take long to think who I should meet.
"Do you know who Maka and Soul are?" I shrugged my shoulders.
"Maka is the smartest kid in school, Soul and her are a team. Maka is the mister and Soul is the weapon. I know she is friends with Black Star, one of the kids who picks on me... He shoved me into my locker today actually..." I exhausted a deep sigh, still looking at my feet. "Someone tripped me while I was on my way here, that's why I have a bump on my head. I'm guessing it's a bruise now..." Stein nodded.
"The kids and I have worked together. I will tell Lord Death what is going on, he will excuse you from school tomorrow to take a break from everyone. If that's what you need?"
I laughed, "Everyone will think I killed myself... So I'm good." Stein looked at me and grinned.
"I guess I will have a conversation with every class about bulling then. Isn't that what they need?"
"Hey if it gets people to give me some respect! Please, do it. They need to see how it would affect people they say things to."

{Time skip: you left school and at home now}
I'm just going to take a warm bath to ease the nerves. Being stressed over everyone's wasted souls... So this is how I'm supposed to live my life. I've been strong when my dad disappeared, when my aunt died in a car accident, lets add the fact that I'm an only child because my mom died giving birth to me... I have no one, and no one means alone. I guess more time to listen to music. ¨It's funny how I'm my own weapon! I guess that means I don't need to depend on someone else for help in a battle. No one to drag me down more like it...¨ I mumble to myself as I slowly take off my socks and shoes. Suddenly, my silence was broken when something shattered my bedroom window. I covered my face as I felt glass go through my back. It pierced my thin skin, causing a lot of pain in my lower and upper back. I dragged myself to my phone and started to dial for help when my door busted open. It was Dr. Stein! ¨Are you ok? I heard the glass shatter and a bunch of kids running away from the street.¨ I laid there and started to cry as Stein reached for the first aid kit in my bathroom. ¨(y/n), I'm going to have to remove some glass from your back. I need you to try and tell me where it hurts.¨Through tears, I told him where I had the worst pain.
