While the DWMA's anniversary party was going on the witch Medusa and her crew have gone to awaken the Kishin locked in the shines under death city. To make matters worse they have used a spell to trap everyone, meister and weapon alike, in the ballroom. Well almost everyone: Maka Albarn and her partner Soul'Eater'Evans , Black Star and his partner Tsubaki Nakatsukasa, Death the Kid (Lord Deaths son) and his partners Liz and Patty Thompson along with professor Stein and the death scythe Spirit have all managed to escape and have gone to fight the group who wishes to revive the Kishin. Even though they are free from the spell sealing the ballroom Stein finds himself trapped by Medusa but in a much more personal way.
Maka, Black Star, and Kid (along with their weapons) have gone ahead leaving professor Stein and Spirit to fight the witch Medusa. Their battle begins with each participant giving their all in an effort to defeat their opponent; when an unexpected interruption occurs.
Stein-Wait, Spirit. Something isn't right.
Spirit—What is it?
Stein-It's Maka, something is very wrong. Her soul's wavelength has drastically changed.
Quickly jumping into his human form Spirit panics.
Spirit-What, Maka?! What's happened?
Stein-I'm not sure, but you should go on ahead. Leave Medusa to me.
Medusa glared at the two
Medusa-My you must be stupid if you think I'll just let you past me.
A grin grew across Steins face.
Stein-Spirit, transform now!
In no time at all Spirit was again a Scythe. Stein leapt forward and simultaneously hurled Spirit past the witch. Quickly he jumps into his human form and sprints to his daughter's aid.
Medusa-Very impressive Stein, but you've left yourself unarmed.
Stein lit a cigarette.
Stein-Well then I supose fighting is a waste then. So you won't mind me asking you a few questions.
Medusa-So your friend goes to rescue his child and you want to play twenty questions with me?
Stein-No, Maka has defeated the demon sword. She is in no danger.
Medusa-Ah, I see I've peeked you scientific curiosity. You must want to know why I plan to revive the Kishin or what I want to do when madness takes over the world.
Stein watched the arrogant witch rant.
Stein- No my questions are far more personal than that.
Medusa stood confused as the scientist began.
Stein-For some reason I'm fascinated with you. You're will, your cunning, your soul. Yet my interest isn't that of an opponent or a specimen.
The witch (caught off guard) lowered her gaze.
Medusa-What is this? Your pathetic way of saying you have feelings for me.
She looked up to see Stein gazing into her eyes with intense passion.
Stein-No, I don't have feeling for you, but I want you.
Tossing his cigarette aside he took her in his arms and kissed her. Astonished by the act she found she couldn't move. After a few moments passed she found herself, not fighting the scientists embrace, but returning it. They fell to the floor.
Medusa-Oh, professor I never knew you could have such passion.
Steins mind raced until a thought came to it.
(stein)-Is this passion?
He held the witch close as they continued their embrace
(stein)-Or could this be her Magik
The scientist let the thoughts carry as he kissed Medusa
(stein)-Or have I fallen into the Kishins madness.
