Hello! This is my first fic, so I want constructive criticism (ex. Be more descriptive), but no hating! Also, there will be a slight SoMa, but it'll be more of a friend thing.
Hundreds of women swathed in black robes were hunched over, their hands clasped together. They chanted in low voices, and their ancient words weaved powerful spells.
A small figure in a dark cloak stuck all over with safety pins and an eye-patch scuttled onto a rock that overlooked the entire cavern. It was Mabaa, the most powerful witch in existence, whose powers could rival Shinigami's. Silence suddenly descended upon the rest of the witches, and their chanting ceased. She began to speak, in a rather squeaky voice:
"Buttataki Joe of Shibusen was the only known person in the world whose Soul Perception could penetrate our Soul Protect, but thanks to an unknown force he was eliminated."
The audience murmured happily among themselves; their greatest threat was now gone, and they were momentarily safe.
"However, that does not mean our troubles are over. We have been informed that there is a new predecessor to Buttataki Joe who has the potential to see through the Soul Protect-"
Roars of outrage suddenly filled the room, and Mabaa could no longer continue over the din that echoed through the cavern. How could such a powerful person spring up in such a short time?!
"SILENCE!" screamed a witch, obviously Mabaa's loyal right-hand partner. A pink-haired witch snickered at the throbbing veins in her neck. Everyone fell silent once more.
Then a beautiful, but severe-looking woman stepped forward. "Excuse me, but just who is this person? And how on earth can we protect ourselves from him?!"
"Don't fret, Kurotori. And I was going to inform you of this meister's identity before you so rudely interrupted," Mabaa said coldly. "As I was saying, this predecessor is Maka Albarn, scythe-meister and daughter of Kami and Spirit Albarn."
Kim's POV
My heart skipped a beat. Maka?! I had known her Soul Perception was strong, but I had no idea that she might be able to see through Soul Protect! Blackstar was right: she is a human radar.
But now her ability put her in danger. And if they knew this information, then that meant there was a traitor at Shibusen, although I couldn't imagine who.
I cleared my throat. "Pardon, Mabaa-sama, but how did you come across this information? And how will you deal with this . . . problem?"
Mabaa looked at me. She always gave me the creeps, what with her being all covered up and that eye-patch. "It does not matter how we got the information, Kim. As for how we shall deal with Albarn, it's quite obvious,"
I had the sick feeling that Mabaa was smiling. My stomach was roiling, and I tightened my grip on Jackie's hand.
"We are going to kill Maka Albarn."
Sh-t.
