Chapter Zero

Berlin, Germany

10:30 PM

It stalked the streets this night, as it had done every night for the two months since it was created. "Or maybe I was changed, or perhaps I was born this way", it thought, not really caring. All it knew were two things. One: to protect its master which created it and helped it hunt and two: it was always hungry for human souls.

Now it spotted its prey and its lips, or rather, its mandibles moistened. A young girl, possibly 15 or 16 years of age, walked down the streets alone tonight. It loved to eat young souls and it loved this part of the ploy the most for it always went the same way.

"Excuse me my sweet fraulein, but is it truly safe to be out this late?" Right on cue.

The girl jumped as the tall man walked from the shadows. His sleeked back hair, glasses, and overcoat suggested a medical profession of some kind- perhaps a surgeon. "Oh I did not mean to frighten you. I assure you I am not the monster," he said.

The girl knew of what the doctor was referring to: for the past two months a string of murders had occurred in Berlin. Witnesses report seeing some huge, hideous creature that resembled some sort of serpent or maybe a large insect. Whatever it may be, it had brought the night in Berlin to a hush. Only the bravest, or most foolish dared leave their homes at night.

"Come, my hospital is only around the block. Let us leave the night to the creature," the doctor said, offering his hand. The girl complied, and he noticed she wore pair of leather gloves, like those a construction or possibly a road worker would wear.

Curious.

Not overly concerned, the surgeon led the girl to a dark alley. The same dark alley where his creature now waited patiently. As the darkness closed about her, she felt the doctor's hand release hers and she was vaguely aware of a loud snapping sound. Too late. The creature lurched forward, letting the light reveal its abominable visage.

It was a creature of amalgamation. A twisted scientist's idea of the perfect hunter. The creature resembled a colossal centipede but its form and what it actually was were very different. Its legs were one thousand stamping and clawing human limbs. Its body was many human torsos sewn together and its head resembled that of a bald human male with a pair of synthetic insectoid pincers for teeth.

It towered over the girl, waiting for her fear to take hold.

But nothing happened.

She just stood there, looking up at the thing which could swallow her whole. The creature didn't get it. It couldn't understand this new development, couldn't comprehend that it was the one being hunted.

It started as tiny little stings running up its back but became sharp painful impacts. It turned its hideous head to see another young girl aiming what appeared to be a small crossbow attached to her wrist. She loosed another arrow.

It was aimed straight at the creature's face. It turned aside so that the arrow would smack into the ground instead, but then the projectile exploded in a flash of bright light. Blinded, the creature threw back its head and screeched in fear. It bolted back down the alley, looking for sanctuary from the girl and her stinging bow. Its vision cleared enough to see down the alley and to who blocked its path.

A young man not much older than the two girls, with red hair that nearly covered the nape of his neck stood in its way. He took a side ways stance, gripping something tied to his waist while his gaze did not waver from the thing. In no mood for a fight, the creature leaped ahead with its teeth bared.

With one precise tug, the red haired boy revealed his weapon: a long, silver katana with a white hilt and a guard shaped after a cherry blossom in bloom. Suddenly the creature felt much lighter, as the boy, just as quickly returned the blade to its sheath. It hit the ground at the boy's feet, struggling on legs that no longer had hands or feet. The girl with the crossbow caught up and now leveled another arrow at its face. It knew the end was coming.

"Stop!"

The two looked back down the alley to see the surgeon, with a desperate look in his eyes, holding a scalpel at the first girl's throat. "Toss your weapons aside or this good, young fraulein's blood is on your hands!" The two didn't move, only the boy crossed his arms as if he were waiting for something.

"Do you think I'm bluffing?" The doctor shouted, getting angry. "I assureyou, I am not a kind man who shows mercy. Now do as I say!"

The response came from his hostage. "Its not that they think you're a kind man, it's just that they know I'm not much of a "good, little fraulein". The girl's voice was gruff, almost boy like. Suddenly the surgeon heard a snap and then a clinking sound as his scalpels blade was snapped clean off the handle.

The man backed away, taking the girls hood down with him. She had long, light brown hair that was pulled back and braided, her eyes were a deep maroon that practically glowed with bloodlust. She pulled the sleeve of her right arm and removed the glove on said arm, revealing her weapoin. What seemed to be scales ran up the length of her forearm. They had a bright red color to them with blue lines that ran up the middle and grew out as her fingers.

"Doctor Franz van Krieger, creater of the human chimera: Homo-sapien Centipede" the girl stated walking forward and grabbing Franz by the collar. "Your name is on shinigami's list." With super human strength, the girl lifted him off the ground and over her head, tossing him down the alley to smack into the mutilated and still struggling body of his pet.

The girl's comrades jumped back, standing shoulder to shoulder with their brown haired friend. "We'll be taking your soul now." The girl with the crossbow announced coyly.

"Resonance link!"

They all called , as a huge globe of white energy took shape around them. With one last desperate bid for life, the centipede lunged forward to cover its master.

The attempt was futile. The brown haired girl with the crossbow went first. Loading a white arrow of pure energy into place, she aimed high- straight up and let it loose. The creature saw hope, then suddenly the arrow burst in midair into a thousand tinier arrows which sailed down and pinned both Franz and his monstrosity to the ground.

The arrows didn't hurt but they did there job. Next the red haired boy rushed forward again, pulling out his katana and as he passed he resheathed it again.

Franz watched in horror as his creation broke apart at the stiching he'd connected the things body together with. The creature's upper body was the only thing that still moved. It turned just in time to see the finale as the last girl readied her finisher. Her demonic looking arm now had a purplish glow at its core as did her right eye.

Her charging phase complete, she loosed her ultimate attack with her other arm gripping her demonic one, which now pointed straight out at her two targets. A ball of redish energy exploded from her open palm, speeding down the alley and exploding as it hit Franz and the Homo-sapien Centipede.

The dust cleared and where the two evil beings were, now floated a pair of red orbs. These were kishin eggs. The souls of those who do evil and devour the souls of innocents.

All three relaxed and their partners retook human form. Beside the red haired boy his sword changed into a young japanese girl with long black hair and wore what appeared to be some type of school uniform similar to what the brown haired girl wore minus the long black jacket.

Beside the blond girl now stood a young man that seemed younger than the rest, since he stood at least a few inches shorter than the red haired boy. Finally, after removing her black jacket that was too big for her, the brown haired girl's right arm returned to normal- as a boy who was much taller than all the others and possessed the same demonic looking arm the the girl used earlier.

He retrieved his jacket from the girl and slipped it on over his red t-shirt. He casually walked down the alley, grasped both souls in his hands, turning to his friends and said in the said gruff manner as the girl before:

"How the hell are we supposed to divide these evenly?"

Note: Alright, end of chapter zero. I think this is a good intro chapter and I will officialy begin the story, and reveal more about these characters next update. But first:

I do not own Soul Eater or its characters.

I do not own the concept of the demonic arm, it was based off of Nero's From DMC4.

I do not own the human centipede which this chapter's villian is based off of.
