My original Puella Magi and Soul Eater crossover, Magic is Real, was terrible, so I'm rewriting it. It follows a similar plot, but it will be told in parts. The story begins at the beginning of Puella Magi, and just after Kid is kidnapped in Soul Eater. I will not use the exact text.

Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater!

Part 1: Wish

Chapter 1: Medusa's True Intent: The Revenge of the Snake-Witch?

"I wish…"

"Thank you, children." Medusa stood up and walked up to her sister's body. Maka looked up with wide eyes. Exhausted, she attempted to get up and stop the witch, but sank back down, realizing it was hopeless. "By killing my worthless sister, you have allowed me to take over her body!" Medusa spread open her arms and Maka could only watch with horror as her soul entered Arachne's body. Soul weakly crawled over to his meister and shielded her with his body. "Now to get rid of you! I really should thank you, but you really have just been tools. And why should I thank tools?" Medusa laughed and raised a hand. "VECTOR ARROWS!" Maka barely dodged the arrows heading her way.

"Time to finish you off." Medusa raised a hand and prepared to attack when an arachnophobia agent ran in.

"Mistress Arachne, the castle is surrounded. We must retreat." Medusa sighed and moved to leave.

"Until next time." Medusa left, a smirk on her lips.

Chapter 2: The Magical Girl- Homura Akemi is the Transfer Student?

"Today we will be introducing a new student." Dr. Stein took a puff of hic cigar. Maka was only really half listening. She continuously twisted the ring on her finger. The glowing runes on it were silver. She was fascinated by the silver design on her fingernail. She had yet to face a witch- after the fateful battle with Arachne she had been bound to the hospital for three days, and she was only now returning to school.

"Her name is Homura Akemi, and is a weapon. Akemi, please sit between Maka and Kid. The-" Dr Stein was about to explain who was who when Homura swept past him. As the girl passed Maka, she gasped. Her finger… And that ring…

This was another Puella Magi.

"Hey, Maka, do you get the feeling she was glaring in our direction?" Liz leaned over and whispered to Maka. Maka turned, having barely heard her.

"Huh?" Liz rolled her eyes and repeated her question.

"Oh? Yeah…" Maka stared at the magical girl. So she wasn't alone…

"Maka Albarn, Homura Akemi, please report outside with Spirit and Marie." Maka shrugged and walked outside.

"Your Grigori soul will allow you to use your weapon to fly. Homura here can create a kind of flying carpet. Homura…" Maka patiently listened to Marie. The black-haired transfer student transformed into a small shield, which grew large enough for Maka to sit on, which she did.

'Reach inside.' Maka was startled to hear Homura's voice in her head.

'Huh?'

'Inside the shield. Reach inside.' Maka did so, and pulled out a scythe. The shield slowly lifted in the air and moved in the direction Maka pointed to with her scythe. Kim and Jackie, also in the air, watched the exchange with awe.

"That's cool. Wonder how I could make money off of it…" Kim immediately began calculating as her weapon sighed.

"Hey, Kim!" Maka shakily stood up and waved to the lamp meister. Kim returned the wave and whispered to Jackie:

"I have an idea!"

"Oh death." Jackie groaned as the two steered off course from Maka and Homura.

Huh? Maka turned the shield around and they began to move in that direction.

What? At first Maka thought Homura was irritated, but then she realized it was desperation in the weapon's voice.

There's a kishin soul. Let's check it out.

Wait! But they were already gliding through the air.

"Die, Maka Albarn." Before the two stood a young boy, black wings coming out of his back. Maka stops. WIngs emerge from the boy's left fist, which he points at the pair. The boy flies by her, the wings almost cutting into Maka. Before she can recover, he throws more of the bullet wings at her.

"Time stop." Maka isn't even aware anything had happened until she realized the boy had stopped and only Homura and her were moving.

"What did you just do!?" There's no need to talk through the resonance anymore; nobody's around to hear them anymore, so the two can freely talk.

"I stopped time. Now let's retreat." The weapon urged Maka.

"No!" Maka raised her scythe. "We're going to fight." Time sped up, and the boy sped toward the pair again, ready to kick them into the cliffs.

But this time Maka was ready. She blocked with her scythe and then swiped, hitting the boy across the chest. With a grin, he kicked her from the side, knocking her against the cliff and almost off the shield. She gripped the edge and stood back up.

"How does it feel to have your own soul targeted now?" The boy mocked the scythe-meister as she forced herself to get up. Right. His soul- it was a grigori, same like hers, but some odd magic augmented it. Her eyes narrowed.

A large ball of energy exited the boy's stomach. Maka narrowly dodged it, almost falling off. The boy sneered.

More of the bullet wings were fired at Maka. She looked at her weapon, hoping she would stop time again, but was met with silence. Maka narrowly dodged the wings and flew toward the boy, raising her scythe.

"Who are you?" The scythe-meister demanded of the boy. She was ignored. The boy's chest split open again and he grinned.

"NOAH-SAMA!" As the wavelength cannon fired another ball of energy at Maka, she flew to the side. But the ball…

"It followed us." Maka felt her mouth go dry. How…?

"You can't dodge this one." The boy smirks as Maka is faced with his daunting wavelength. "This will follow whomever I hate to the ends of the earth." Again, she looks at Homura for support but she has a feeling she won't find help there. She has a feeling the weapon is ready to do something big- big, and not necessarily in her favour.

Hmph. So it seemed like she was on her own. As the ball neared, she raised her scythe.

And cut it in two.

"Wha-?" The boy is forced against the cliff wall by Maka's scythe. The blonde girl snarls as she lets him go, preparing to bring him back.

"You're lucky you're not on Shinigami-sama's list," is all she says before preparing to force him to stand down.

The boy pulls out a paper.

"I don't want to flee… But it won't help us if I'm captured." The paper pulls the boy within, and he is gone.

Chapter 3: Ropes of Gold- Mami Tomoe shows up on the scene?

"Are you OK, Maka?" Patty tugged in Maka's arm. The girl was staring off into space, fiddling with her soul gem.

"Hm? Oh, yeah, I'm fine." Yesterday had been her first witch hunt. Her magical girl outfit looked like her black blood dress, but was silver and her soul gem hung from a simple silver chain around her neck.

"We have Stein today…" Liz sighed dramatically and fell over into Soul's hands, who looked mildly mortified. "I hate Stein!"

"Ahem." Liz gulped. In front of Spartoi stood the teacher himself.

"Time to get to class, children."

"Hey, Maka. Want to go to the music store with me?" Soul stopped his meister as she prepared to exit the school. Maka blinked.

"Oh, yeah." Maka and Soul walked side-by-side to the store, where Soul immediately began listening to his jazz. There weren't many people, just a blue-haired girl and black-haired boy. Maka sighed. Might as well-

Help! Maka turned to where the voice was calling her. Maka, help! It was Kyubey! She picked up her school bag and rushed to where the voice was calling her.

It was a door. She slowly opened it and gasped at the sight in front of her.

Homura Akemi shot Kyubey as he attempted to dodge.

Help… Maka ran past and grabbed Kyubey.

"Put him down." The gun was pointed at the scythe meister.

"No." Maka glared at the weapon. Homura raised her gun and pulled the trigger when a voice called:

"Run!" The blue-haired girl from the record store held a hose and was spraying water at Homura. Maka stared. What was happening...

"RUN! This girl is crazy!" The blue haired girl attempted to hold the black-haired weapon back, startling Maka out of her reverie.

"Ah- hai!" Maka ran as fast as she could outside, clutching Kyubey. With surprise, she noticed the walls fading and creatures appearing.

A witch barrier.

"Oh no…" Maka transformed, relishing the feel of having a proper scythe in her hands. "Well, here goes…" Maka stomped the familiars underfoot, slicing them up until she got to the witch.

She-or was it an it?- wasn't currently looking at Maka. She had long, beautiful flowing blonde hair and brushed it with her fingers as she sang a song that paralyzed Maka. She wore nothing as a top, revealing her beautiful and busty body, but somewhere around her hips, the skin molded into blades. The witch laughed and turned to face Maka. She nearly screamed.

The witch- had no face.

"Right." Makatried to move, but the song… It kept her still. She couldn't move.

This was so unfair! Only her second witch hut, and she was going to die. A blade sliced close to her neck and Maka gritted her teeth. She was going to die, right here, right then. It would have been better to take her chances with Homura...

Golden ropes secured the witch in place. Maka tried to turn, startled.

"Tiro Finale!" A gunshot went off and Maka was free of the paralysis. She looked up to see a blonde girl holding a gun.

"Here. This belongs to you." The girl handed her a grief seed. Maka held it up.

"Thank you… Who are you?"

"You can call me Mami."

I didn't use the exact dialogue because the story follows a different set-up than either Soul Eater of Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Next up- Part 2: Soul.
