The Great Nation Divide Part 2 Kanji Message
Soul stepped in front of the school as Chrono landed beside them looking up at the design.
"So this is where we'll find Lord Death?" Rosette asked.
Maka nodded.
Chrono opened the front doors to see a hallway of broken bodies scattered all over, Maka shivered a bit at what she saw in front of her.
"What happened here?" Soul asked.
"Looks like someone was in here before we were and left a path of carnage in their wake" Rosette said, recalling what Aion did back in New York.
Chrono's heart sank remembering what Aion did to him psychologically and emotionally but for right now this was something different so he walked up, being careful not to step on anyone as they made their way to the Death Room.
I hope Lord Death is ok and that demon Rena didn't get to him too because if she did, I would make her way Maka promised if she Lord Death in a bad way.
Soul entered the room to see him standing but barely trying to heal from that attack from Rena and her apprentice Christine.
"Mister Lord Death my name is Rosette Christopher and we're here to see you" Rosette said.
Lord Death looked up at all of them before passing out.
"Lord Death!" Soul ran up to him and noticed a strange message etched on his forehead written in Kanji.
"Kanji?" Maka asked.
Soul nodded, looking at it closely.
"It looks threatening but I can't seem to decipher it, hey Chrono think you can make sense of this?" Soul asked.
Chrono walked over there and looked at them too, the look on his face when he deciphered them was that of pure terror.
"What does it say Chrono?" Rosette asked.
"A coming Apocalypse of the Queen of Hell" Chrono said, his voice cracking with fear.
"Soul that could mean only one thing" Maka said assuming the worst.
"Satsuki aka the demon neko" Soul said.
Rosette had a sudden flashback when that dreadful woman almost killed Chrono if Satella hadn't brought up a protective gen shield to take the blunt of that attack.
Remembering something like that made Rosette tear up.
Maka noticed Rosette tearing up and decided to give her a warm hug to lift her spirits up.
"Thanks Maka" Rosette sniffled and wiped her tears.
"Just looking out for a friend" Maka said smiling warmly.
"Now we know Satsuki is going to make a comeback, it looks like we need to find Rena and whoever else could be helping her" Chrono said getting up.
"Lead the way Chrono" Soul said.
Chrono led everyone else out of the school in a sort of ominous way and Maka could tell something wasn't right.
Two sisters walked up to them holding hands smirking.
"Solar and Lunar, never thought I would see you two again" Soul said.
"We return for one reason and that was to meet you all so we may help you to stop Satsuki's resurrection" Solar said.
"Wait you wanna help us and not kill us?" Soul questioned, knowing that last time they met it was a heated fight.
"I know but after we reformed thanks to Naruto we wish to offer out services" Lunar said smiling.
"Ok Lunar since you're the werewolf I need you to take Solar and see if you can track down Rena" Soul commanded.
Lunar transformed into a wolf and started sniffing to get a trail. Once she was locked on the scent, Solar followed her sister on Rena's scent.
"I'll follow them from above just in case this is a trap" Chrono said bringing out his wings and flying above them.
Rena walked into a brick wall smirking as she placed her hand over it and watched the wall collapse.
"I enjoyed beating up that old fool" Christine said expressing her joy towards hurting Shinigami-sama.
"He did mention something about you being a former student of his, you care to explain Christine?" Rena asked.
"It was when I achieved my mission of collecting 99 souls and defeating the Kishin but it wasn't about that" Christine clenched her fists.
Flashback - 15 years ago
Christine walked the hallways of the school happy as can be, in a way she expected to see her meister Sebastian ready to accept Lord Death's invitation as his Death's weapon.
This was entirely different.
Entering the death room she saw only her and Lord Death but no ceremony and no Sebastian.
"Lord Death what happened? I did what you asked me" Christine wanted to know why she wasn't going to be accepted.
"I'm terribly sorry Christine but your meister had an unfortunate accident after defeating the Kishin" Lord Death stated.
Christine feared the worst had come.
"After the fight he succumbed to its madness and had to be taken to a mental facility" Death continued.
"But he's MY meister, please Lord Death I wanna at least see him" Christine pleaded.
Lord Death hanged his head low and turned his back on her.
"I am sorry Christine but to ensure the safety of everyone here in Death City your meister must remain there so he can no longer spread madness anymore" Lord Death felt guity.
Christine's sadness turned into anger and hatred as she left the school.
Please understand where I'm coming from Christine and soon enough you will understand Lord Death had a range of emotions that clouded what little judgement he had left.
Christine walked out of the school and ran off into the forest until she could see a mental hospital in the distance.
I'm coming for you Sebastian Christine ran faster in order to see her meister again.
Running inside she checked the cell list posted on the wall next to where she came in.
"Cell 54 name is Sebastian Adams, that's where I'll find him" Christine put the list down and ran up and around.
When she reached his cell, he sat down on the far side, head hanging down ashamed he was sent here because they thought he went insane after defeating Kishin.
"Sebastian" Christine called out.
He looked up then without another word, he walked up to greet his weapon.
"Christine what are you doing here?" Sebastian asked.
"I came here to see you after what happened when we defeated the Kishin" Christine smiled.
She went to hug him but he stepped back.
"I don't want to give you my insanity" Sebastian wanted to ensure his weapon's safety.
Christine was baffled at what Lord Death said was true. It sent her into tears as now her meister was rotting in a cell in fear that his madness would spread across Death City.
"I promise you that one day I will have the power to break out of here so we can tangle Lord Death together" Sebastian proclaimed.
End of Flashback
"So Lord Death locked up your former meister in fear of madness running rampant across the city?" How awful" Rena expressed her disgust of what he did to Sebastian.
"Tell me about it" Christine added, wiping a single tear.
Rena held her cheeks smirking.
"Do not beat yourself up, once we resurrect the Demon Neko our victory will be more than enough to have Lord Death worship you" Rena promised.
Christine liked that idea.
