-I don't own Soul Eater!- POV: Unknown
I stood in the shadows, watching the girl who killed my mother. She was a pitiful creature. Even now I could smell the filth that clung to her, unwilling to let go. Oh, how I wanted to feel the shredding of skin as I ripped her open, hear her screams of pure agony, taste the sharp iron taste of her blood. But that would come soon enough. For now, I sat, waiting for my opportunity to strike at my little brother. But with the Professor and his Weapon a mere inches from him, they would surely hear me and the chains-not to mention the motors- of Left and Right's Weapon form. No, I would wait for my moment to strike. Mother, you will be avenged. I walked back through the small doorway back to the room which now held my Mother's crystal ball. I sat down at it, staring. I knew how to use it; it was the thought of Mother that stopped me. She was the only one that was allowed to use it, but now that she was gone, who was there to stop me? I placed my hand over the surface and murmured, "Eruka, report." Almost immediately, a small face appeared in the glass. She seemed to be just waking up. "Ugh…Medusa?" she asked groggily, rubbing her eyes. "Mother has been defeated. She is gone." I said flatly. "Geko! Sosa? Is that you? What do you mean, 'defeated'?" she asked, almost afraid of the answer. "She has been purged from this world by Scythe Miester Maka's Genie Hunter." To this statement, she pulled her hat over her eyes and started to cry. "Aw crap! That means I'm out of a job!" Her sobs were beginning to wear at my nerves. Didn't she ever shut up? "Eruka!" I yelled, my patience reaching its limit. She stopped momentarily, probably surprised by my outburst. "I will be taking my Mother's place until she is revived. And until that moment, you now take orders from me. Now tell me-what have you found out?" With this she seemed to pull herself together. "Well, from what the Mizunes have collected, Lady Arachne seems to be planning something big. That crazy ninja from the Academy is approaching Baba Yaga Castle, but don't worry-we have Mifune to deal with him…" she smiled and gave a slight croak. "Good. Keep me up to date at every hour, on the hour." I said, waving my hand over the ball to cut the transmission. This war won't last for long…I thought as I walked out of the room. I need to strike fast if I want to get to Crona. When I went back to my brother and his pack of friends, they were long gone. Even thought it was weak, I could still sense his Wavelength. "Left, Right. Come." I said, patting my thigh twice. My two wolves almost seeped out of the dark corner, their movements tense with excitement. Left gave a slight whine, then two sharp barks. I smiled. "Don't worry, girl. You'll get his blood soon enough…" I laughed, the sweet sound echoing off the dark walls.
