Chi: This has a weird start and storyline.
Black*Star: I'll say. I'm not the star!
Chi: Just because your not the star doesn't mean I should suddenly do it that way. Besides I'm already a few chapters in on the draft and editing.
Soul: I'm not even in character. How can you call this finished? I'm so uncool.
Chi: Zip it. I can't write you all perfectly in character. I may be amazing (not) but I lack some basic abilities. Including the ability to understand and use my 'Common Sense'.
Maka: Why does that happen to me?
Unnamed character 1: And when do I come in?
Chi: HEY! BACK IN THE SHADOWS YOU!
The house was mostly silent. Everyone had left for school that day. Maka though hadn't been feeling good earlier so she had started home. But had been making a speedy recovery as she sat on her bed reading her favorite story again. There was a slight knock at the door. "It's open Blair. Since when do you knock anyway?" Maka called out thinking it was Blair with one of her crazy ideas to help her feel better. The door opened and you could see a shadow walk by but no-one entered the room. "Blair?" Maka called out loudly setting her book down. Maka walked outside of her room to find Blair. Apparently she was asleep at the table surrounded by magazines. Maka went back to her room to ponder in what had just happened and to finish her book. She stood at the entryway of her room.
"I can kill two birds with one stone using this opportunity." A figure from behind Maka said as it covered her mouth with sleeping drugs and made sure she swallowed them by lifting her face up.
A little later,
"Blair, Maka I'm home from school. You feel better?" Soul asked as he entered the house unaware of Maka missing as Blair slept peacefully at the table. "Blair how's Maka?" Soul asked as he shook her.
"She's in her room I think." Blair yawned. Soul left the room to check on her. Maka's door was wide open and empty. After Blair checked the entire house they hadn't found her. "Soul I'm sure Maka felt better while I was asleep so she left the house for a bit." Blair assured the slightly worried boy.
"I know, but still something feels off." Soul mumbled.
That was when Maka didn't return for a week. The DWMA knew about Maka's disappearance. But she never came back. The Keashins got worse and started killing people more often. There style changing and becoming more efficient.
"Another three murders last night. It's weird. We could kill twenty in one night but the murders still don't decrease. What's even stranger is how there fighting technique has changed." Stein mumbled as Spirit was still running around frantically trying to find his daughter.
"Stein lets go we need to find Maka!" Spirit cried out as he tried to drag Stein out the door.
"That's not all though, I was outside last night. It seems someone's working with the Keashins. While I did prevent one murder I saw someone in the shadows. As soon as I defeated the Keashin I heard them walk off. Shortly after that a murder was done. Again the figure was close." Stein explained.
"And you haven't shared the information with the academy?!" Spirit yelled.
"Every student will be looking for them. It'll cause more unneeded deaths. But I have shared it with Lord Death. Tonight we go hunting." Stein said.
Elsewhere,
"Hey you okay Tsubaki?" Black star asked as the girl hardly touched her lunch.
"She's only worried Black Star. Although I can't imagine how Souls doing. He can't help find her since he's without a Mister and because he cares about her." Liz replied for her.
"Yeah. Fathers even having him stay at home. If he leaves them he wants him to take a someone with him." Kid said. Patti smiled as she kept drawing.
"... I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE IN GONNA GO FIND HER!" Black Star exploded.
"Black Star don't!" Tsubaki cried out.
"I agree with Black Star. Maka defeated Asura so if we can find her we'll be ablend to restore peace!" Kids agreed as Liz sighed and transformed. Patty got all fired up and transformed as well. Tsubaki gave up and transformed as well. All five of them started searching. They kept themselves with there weapons and miesters in case of an attack.
Later on that night,
Soul was running from his house and ran into Kid, Patti, and Liz. "Good timing, let's go!" Soul panted as he stood next to Kid.
"What are you doing here?" Liz asked.
"Long story short, house attacked by Keashins now chasing me." Soul said.
"What about the guards?" Kid asked.
"Dead. I escaped from the Keashin. But there headed this way now." Soul explained as the two started running in hopes of finding Black Star. Little did they know that finding them would be easy. The four kids ran from the Keashins. Black Star found them panting himself panting as well. The Keashins chasing Soul caught up easily but upon reaching them ran away .
"Don't know what that was about but we're in big trouble." Tsubaki cried as she transformed back into a weapon.
"This'll be fun. But I'm just looking for my weapon. Oh well I can play to." A voice giggled as Liz and Patti turned into weapons as well.
"Who's there?" Kid yelled.
"You don't recognize me? But I'm your friend!" The voice whined.
"Like hell you are! You tried to kill me." Black Star shouted as he stared at a figure in the darkness.
"Fine then! If I'm not your friend then what's preventing me from killing you? Nothing anymore! I was going to let you walk away with a few cuts but NOPE! Only a friend wouldn't kill you." The voice yelled at him as they jumped from the roof they were perched on. It was Maka. But she was differnt. Maka was wearing her normal attire except for the fact it was dyed black and red. While she had a black feathery mask on. What you could see of her eyes where just red.
"Maka?! What's wrong with you?!" Soul asked angrily.
"Nothing is wrong with me." She said coldly.
"Soul that is Maka. Unfortunately she's under a wizard or witches spell. One known as Possession." Stein said from behind them.
"Hi again Stein. Still upset that you took away my prey but I'll get you back." Maka said coldly as she dived at him quickly. Transforming half way into a weapon cutting him. "I'm sorry, did I hurt you?" Maka asked playfully.
"Spirit hope your up to this." Stein said as he attacked Maka. Maka dogged quickly and struck him again. The two blocked and parried before Maka grew bored and stopped. "Giving up already?" Stein asked.
"Nope." Maka replied as Stein tried to figured out her next move. "Let's play." Maka said as she dived for Stein but jumped over him at the last minute and struck Black Star instead sending him flying back into the wall. Tsubaki right behind him and transforming into a human again. The two were bruised and full of cuts. Black Star got up and charged at Maka angrily. But Maka hit him again with her weapon. This time though he didn't get back up. "Always wanted to do that for the times you humiliated me." Maka said as she quickly struck Kid who barely managed to block. Stein had regained his footing and attacked Maka despite Spirits protests. "Too late." Maka chuckled as she jumped up and landed behind Kid and hit his back hard and leaving him buried in a wall with his weapons scared to death. Both making sure he was alive. Liz transformed and Patti got Maka with a couple blows doing no damage. Maka hit her and Stein with one blow burying Patty with Kid and Stein still on his feet. But Maka was standing next to an angry Soul.
"Don't touch him." Stein warned as Maka reached for Soul since he was against the wall but stopped and stood still. "Soul if you can grab her." Stein mouthed to him.
"Aww I can't finish our game. Oh well you won't make it next time." Maka pouted as she jumped into the first roof and ran off with Stein close on her heels. Maka stopped suddenly and swung around hitting Stein and sending him flying as well.
"Are you'll all right?" Stein asked still bruised from the damage Maka had done.
"I'm fine." Soul muttered angrily since he was unable to help. Kid and Patti moaned a bit before getting up and nodding. Black Star didn't moan but still got up. Angrily but worn out as well.
"Since when is Maka a weapon anyway? I thought she was a miester." Black Star asked.
"I don't know but I don't think she was aware of it. Spirit pull yourself together." Stein ordered as the red head cried. "In any case what were you'll doing outside?" Stein asked.
"My house was attacked by Keashins but as soon as Maka found me they left without question." Soul said.
"We were looking for Maka. Didn't mean to stay out this late." Black Star replied.
"I thought that your house was guarded Soul." Stein said.
"It WAS, but the Keashins killed them easily." Soul replied.
"C'mon let's go home. You'll will need some treatment." Stein said as everyone was personally escorted to the DWMA.
That's how everything began... several times had Stein tried to catch Maka and still make it out alive but failed. Maka had stopped killing innocents and now attacked students from the school when they went outside. No-one was ever killed as everyone was moved to the academy temporarily. Most of the students were grouping together to find a way to bring Maka back. While the teachers worked together to keep everyone alive and calm. The murders decreased dramatically and the style used to kill went back to the original way indicating that Maka was the one who was mostly causing them.
