This is a Soul Eater fanfic based on both the manga and anime plotlines.
Summary: What if Lord Death was able to defeat Asura in the final arc of the anime? Causing Arachne to once again go into hiding, making her the first on DWMA's hit list.
For now, things have calmed down, and the people of Death City can return to their peaceful lives. Including our main gang. Although, their lives are about to get a lot more difficult as they encounter problems that leave them conflicted.
From Maka being a young meister who is trying to hard to be like her mother when she was a meister, and attempting to deal with her over caring father, Spirit. To her weapon, Soul who deals with the demon that lay dormant inside him, and dealing with the family he distanced himself from.
From Black*Star, a meister with a God complex, overworking himself to surpass his goals, or is it a way to deal with the facts that his own father was a monster? To his weapon, Tsubaki, a young girl who tries to hard to fix her friend's problems, that she doesn't realise she's suffocating in her own issues.
From Death the Kid, the immature Death God who struggles with OCD and the need for perfection, confused and lost, he doesn't understand his own father, as he discovers there is a lot of grey area between black and white. To his twin weapons, Liz and Patty, young girls who were left on the street to fend for themselves, but were saved by their meister, might just lose the life they worked so hard to gain as they choose between right and wrong.
How will they overcome their problems? That is, if they want to, will they perhaps give up, already tired of everything they have done in the past and will have to do in the future?
Hopefully they can overcome their issues before Arachne can launch her plan.
Is it just me or do all the meisters have daddy issues and the weapons have family issues?
