Ynot7: Thank you, I'm glad you like it. As for disagreeing with me on the ending for the anime, that's fine, everyone has their own opinion on things. I myself just did not like the ending for the Anime, then again I don't like the Manga ending either. Bah, doesn't matter. Soul Eater is an amazing world nevertheless, and I love it regardless.

Now then, here's chapter two, please read, enjoy and review.


A sound soul...

dwells within a sound mind...

and a sound body.


The rising assassin!

Who's the chick with the witch get up?

Within one of the fanciest five star restaurant's Death City had to offer, sitting at a large table that sat about a hundred or so, were several infamous Mob boss's, many of their cronies, as well as the head and founder of the Death City Mafia. The restaurant was littered with red carpets, gold statues, marble sculptures and such. Quite fitting for the likes of the Mob leaders considering most of their lavish lifestyles. However this was no ordinary restaurant, at least not when it was closed that is. For once business hours are over and all of the employees have left, the Mob would service themselves to a great number of human souls. As all of them have strayed from the path of humanity onto the path of evil, and their souls have become Kishin eggs.

Which is why the DWMA sent an assassin that has been rising in the ranks rather quickly, who had demanded for this mission to be assigned to him and his weapon partner, to deal with them. This assassin's name is Black Star, and he, with his weapon partner, the Black Arm Tsubaki, were lying in wait for the time to strike.

The duo hid within the bottom of a currently moving food cart, the only one servicing the Mob, Tsubaki in her chain scythe mode. As the cart came to a stop, Black Star lifted the large cloth hiding him just a bit, so he could see his targets. He observed the Mob, sitting in wait for their food, as he whispered to his weapon partner, "So all the major players within the Death City Mafia are here, right Tsubaki?"

Tsubaki's upper body appeared within the right blade of the chain scythe as she answered that question. "Correct Black Star. All six leaders are here, including the head and founder. They are Johnny Montanna, he's the head of the Montanna family, Robert Carntine, the head of the Carntine family, Michael Corone, head of the Corone family, Leo Finnigan, the head of the Finnigan Family, Raphael Zara, the head of the Zara family, and of course, the very head of the Mafia, the leader of all of the families, the Godfather, Scarface."

Black Star's eyes scanned over the Mobsters, taking note of the six Tsubaki was speaking of.

Johnny Montanna wore the standard black mob suit, with a purple dress shirt underneath, black dress shoes and a nice silk black tie. He had dark purple hair that was cut quite short, brown eyes and fair skin.

Robert Carntine was bald, had purple eyes, and pale skin. He wore the black mob suit as well, with a white dress shirt underneath, a white tie, and some nice white dress shoes.

Michael Corone had blonde hair in the form of a buzz cut, a medium sized mustache, baby blue eyes and fair skin. He wore the standard mob suit, with black dress shirt, black silk tie, and black dress shoes.

Leo Finnigan had spiky red hair, a goatee, green eyes and pale skin. He wore the same suit as the others, with green dress shirt and gold colored silk tie. As well as some nice, but not as nice as the rest of the group's, black shoes.

Raphael Zara wore the mob suit, with a blue dress shirt, black tie, and fancier looking black shoes than the rest. He had long shoulder length black hair, a small patch of facial hair located on his chin, a chin patch, blue eyes, and fair skin.

Scarface had short brown hair, with sideburns going down just past his ears and a clean shaven face. His eyes were black and lifeless, his skin was fairly tanned, and true to his name, he had a large scar going diagonally across his face, all the way from the left side of his forehead, down to the right side of his jaw. Unlike the rest, who were all wearing the mob uniform, albeit with their own modifications thrown in, Scarface wore a black pinstripe suit, white dress shirt underneath, black tie and white cuff links. Another difference in their attire was that everyone's suits were buttoned all the way up, but Scarface's buttons were left undone. His shoes also seemed to be made of a different material, and he wore a black bowler cap to top it all off.

Black Star took a deep breath, exhaling only a moment later, closing his eyes as he did. Then he began to mentally go over and check off the three Assassin's rules, as per routine. "Assassin's rule number one, silence, dissolve in the darkness and erase your breath. Wait for an opening to attack your target. Assassin's rule number two, transpositional thinking, analyze the target in order to predict his thoughts and movements. Assassin's rule number three, speed, take out the target before the target notices your presence."

As the cart began moving once more, his eyes opened and he cracked his huge, signature, shit eating grin, that only he could pull off and still be sane. The blue haired assassin, his weapon firmly in hand, then climbed from under the cart out to a table they were passing by, taking his place in this new hiding spot with quick and undetectable movement.

From there, once he was sure that no one was looking, only waiting a total of ten seconds before doing so, he got out from under the table, and hid within the very faint shadows at the edge of the room, ones so faint they were almost impossible to mask your presence in.

As the same cart that he had hid under only moments before made it to the table and began passing out the plates and bowls full of human souls, Black Star made his move. He took an unsteady aim, not really caring who he was gonna hit, and threw the right blade of his chain scythe, sending it flying toward the Mobsters. The blade hit a target only a second later, cleaving into Johnny Montanna's neck, cutting almost halfway through it. His eyes were wide in shock and pain, blood spraying from his half severed head, before he dropped dead, falling forward and slamming his face onto the table.

All of the Mobsters were understandably bewildered by this, not sure what in the hell had just happened, except Scarface, who looked irritated that he now had a bit of blood on his suit. He was also the only one to have his eyes on the chain attached to the blade, the orbs of his beginning to travel the length of it after wiping the blood off of his clothing. Before any of them could notice what their boss was looking at, make any kind of move, or even speak about what had just happened, and also before Scarface could follow the chain to it's end, the other side of the chain scythe came flying, the blade piercing one of the cronies heads from behind, the tip sticking out of the front of his forehead, covered in blood. This had killed him instantly, so there was no second of shock before he slammed onto the table face first.

Black Star then called out, "Tsubaki, smoke bomb mode, now!"

"Got it!"

Tsubaki began glowing then, her shape changing, as she morphed into a large smoke pellet, a smoke bomb, the glow fading as she entered her new form. The smoke bomb fell down onto the table and exploded, consuming the table and everyone sitting at it in smoke.

This was his chance, so the teenage assassin rushed into the smoke, giving Tsubaki another command as he did, "Tsubaki, ninja sword mode!"

Without a word, Tsubaki did as he said, glowing once more, though only for a moment, changing into the form of a short sword, before falling into her meister's right hand, the blue haired young man taking her with a firm grip.

Since their sight was far superior to the bunch of mobsters's, they could see through the smoke, or at least they could see silhouettes and could tell who was who from their body shape, so they could see them, while they themselves couldn't be seen. However with the small flash of light and the loud voice of their attacker, the mobsters had an idea of where the two were, so most of them pulled out pistols and began firing madly. This caused the once quiet restaurant to become filled with cursing and gun fire, and in turn, this led to a few stray shots killing a few unsuspecting grunts.

As this happened, Black Star managed to evade the bullets as he quickly made his way through the smoke and around the table, killing every mobster he could get his hands on. The fact that he was using speed star helped to rack up the kill count, plus the fact that Tsubaki's smoke was going to last about ten times as long as it usually does also helped. As he continued to round the large table, he sliced and diced anyone he came across, ending the lives of a bunch of cronies.

In doing this, it wasn't long before he came across one of the more important targets, Robert Carntine, and as he pointed his glock at the blue haired assassin, the teen's grin grew even wider than it already had been. Robert Carntine wasted no time in beginning to fire on the young man, shooting round after round from his handgun, while Black Star expertly blocked each and every bullet with the blade from his ninja sword, causing them to ricochet off of the blade and go flying in different directions. While this happened, Black Star's ego came out like it always did, in the form of his loudmouthed boasting, "You think a mere pistol could take out a huge star like myself? HELL, NOTHING CAN TAKE OUT A BIG MAN LIKE ME!"

This, of course, drew the attention of all of the trigger happy mobsters, all of whom were eager to be rid of Black Star's nuisance of a presence. Causing all the gunfire to be concentrated on the meister's current location. "Oh crap!"

Black Star, so as to avoid being shot, had to get out of there quick. He still had targets to ex out though, so, compromising, he rushed the head of the Carntine family, Robert. He sunk the blade of his ninja sword deep into high up mobster's gut once he reached him, blood beginning to stain his suit only moments afterward. The assassin then swiftly withdrew his weapon from the man's flesh and began racing to another target, doing his best to avoid the wild gunfire, bullets flying everywhere, while Robert Carntine crumpled to the floor and bled to death.

The blue haired teen ran past several more nameless grunts and came across Michael Corone, and before he knew what had hit him, the trained killer slipped up behind him, brought his weapon up and slid it across his throat, slicing his neck open, blood beginning to spray from the wound as he fell to the floor. The smoke had almost fully dissipated at this point, so Black Star quickly jumped onto the table and began dashing across it, hoping to get at Scarface and end him while he still could, since he was the most important target, he had to be taken out before retreating could be considered.

The smoke had finished fading as Black Star reached the end of the table and lunged at Scarface, Tsubaki in hand, aiming to puncture his jugular and kill him instantaneously. But instead of his jugular, or anywhere near his neck which he had been aiming for, the teen's blade pierced the chair. Scarface had moved his head to the side, doing so in a nonchalant manner, avoiding the blade entirely, letting it be embedded in the back of his chair instead. The cocky assassin, in slight shock at the fact that he had been dodged as if it was something entirely within normality, as if it was something that happened on the daily, glanced at the Mafia head, their eyes making contact as he did. The man's eyes were eerily calm, like nothing the meister and weapon pair had just done or tried to do affected him in the slightest.

Black Star, sensing something sinister from the man he hadn't before, quickly pulled his blade free and kicked off of the chair, back flipping away from him. The weapon and meister pair landed at the other end of the table, the latter of them peeking at the Mob boss to see that he had managed to keep his chair from falling back after being kicked off of. The teen then scanned the room, doing so only for a moment as that was all he had, to make a head count. He had killed Johnny Montanna, Robert Carntine, Micheal Corone and two dozen of their henchman, plus another dozen deaths were accounted for from friendly fire, because these idiots don't know how to be patient.

All the mobsters that were still alive turned towards the boy who had been making fools of them then, their guns ready to fire, Scarface though, stayed perfectly still in his seat. Without warning they all began to blast on the assassin, the teen dashing across the room as they did, doing his very best to avoid the rain of led coming at him. Mid run, Tsubaki spoke just loud enough to where her meister could hear her, but none of their enemies could.

"Black Star, look above us!"

While continuing to evade the bullets coming his way, the sixteen year old looked upwards, only to see a big ass chandelier. "Tsubaki, even a big man like me can't stop to look at this place's decorations when I'm being shot at! Besides, it's just a dumb light fixture!"

"No, I mean cut the chain holding it to the roof, then it will come down on the mobsters!"

"Oh, eh heh heh, I knew that! I was just testing you is all! HA HA HA! Let's do it!"

"Of course you did Black Star."

Black Star quickly changed course and went straight towards the closest wall. His momentum didn't slow, even as his feet met the wall, and he continued to run, rushing right up the wall. Just as he was about to run out of wall, he kicked off of it, shooting out towards the chandelier. Bringing up his ninja sword, he severed the chain that linked it to the roof with a single swing, sending it plummeting down towards all the mobsters.

Most of the mobsters didn't even notice what Black Star had done, they just kept following him with their weapons, firing at him non-stop, only stopping to insert a new clip every now and then. So as the chandelier fell, only Scarface, Raphael Zara, and Leo Finnigan had the brains to get away from the table. Since that was the case, everyone, excluding those three, were crushed along with the table and most of the chairs, becoming flattened by the large chandelier.

The trained assassin landed on the opposite side of the room from the wall he leapt off of, quickly turning to see most of the Mafia gathered here get crushed by the big ass light fixture at the last second. Seeing this, his huge grin widened even further. "Thanks for that Tsubaki."

The weapon girl blushed lightly, though her partner couldn't see this as he wasn't looking at the blade her image was in, as she responded. "You're welcome."

His attention then went towards the only three survivors of his attack, Raphael, Leo and Scarface. Intent on completing this mission to it's fullest, the blue haired teen raced towards them, their attention on him immediately after he began making his way towards them. Both Raphael and Leo looked pissed beyond measure, Scarface however, just looked irritated as he did before.

Black Star jumped towards them, but before he could reach them, one of the only chairs not smashed into bits by the chandelier came flying out of nowhere, slamming into him, and breaking into pieces in the process. He was sent flying to his left from the impact, the chair having come from his right, before he could ram into the wall he was on course towards though, he regained his composure and landed firmly on his feet, skidding back a bit, stopping just an inch or so before he made contact with the wall.

His eyes immediately sought out who was responsible for attacking him like that, shooting over to where the chair came from, to see a woman standing there. She was of average height, had purple hair that reached down to the bottom of her neck, yellow eyes, a figure similar to Tsubaki's, which was kind of strange, and finally, she wore a dead give away witch outfit. Said outfit consisting of a dark purple dress that went down to about her thighs, with skirt like end, thigh high purple socks, knee high black boots, and a pointed purple witch's hat.

"A witch?" The weapon and meister pair asked aloud in unison to themselves.

The purple haired woman gave a smug grin then, as she answered their question, "Yes, a witch. The name's Agatha though, if you wanna get specific."

Black Star's wide, shit eating grin, which had disappeared after that chair had been rammed into his side, returned at that information. "We've got a witch right in front of us, and whole bunch Kishin egg souls, guess what Tsubaki? TONIGHT YOU BECOME A DEATH SCYTHE!"

While her meister was extremely confident in that statement, she herself wasn't sure about trying to fight a witch who had just appeared out of the blue, especially when they didn't know a single thing about her or her abilities. She tried to get this across to her meister, as he prepared to attack, "Black Star wait, we don't even know what this witch is capable of!"

Black Star ignored Tsubaki's words though, rushing towards the witch, closing enough distance to put him in the prime position to attack, just before he could though, the witch known as Agatha simply flicked her wrist, and half of the broken table came flying at the teenager. He was stopped in his tracks upon seeing it coming soaring towards him, quickly whirling around and beginning to run the other way, so as to try and get away before it could hit him. "Oh shit!"

Just as the curse left his mouth, the half of the large table slammed into him from behind, ramming him face first into the wall a few feet in front of him. A grunt of pain escape him as the table fell backwards away from him, and he slid down the wall to the ground. He laid there for a moment, feeling just a bit stupid, but almost immediately got over it, preparing to get up. Before he could climb to his feet however, the witch began moving her ten fingers, and silverware, chair legs, pieces of the broken table, and a whole chair or two, began to levitate. She flicked both her wrists then, and all of these things came flying at the loud mouthed assassin.

Sensing something wrong, he rolled over and jumped to his feet, Tsubaki at the ready as all these objects came flying at them. Upon seeing them, his eyes narrowed a fraction, and he brought his blade into position, so as to be ready for the swarm of items coming at him. Just as they reached him, he began to dice them all up, cutting the floating objects into twos or threes.

As the the star assassin defended himself from the swarm of wood and utensils, Agatha, her smug smirk still present, stopped paying attention to the teen entirely, turned towards Scarface instead, and approached him. He regarded her with those cold eyes of his, his irritation still apparent on his face. Once within close proximity, she began to speak with him, and as she did his annoyed look fell away, becoming intrigued by whatever she was talking about.

After Black Star had finished slicing up everything that came at him into pieces, or smaller pieces in most cases, he looked towards the witch Agatha, Leo Finnigan, Raphael Zara and Scarface. Agatha whispered one last thing into Scarface's ear, to which he nodded affirmatively to, apparently ending their conversation as he did, and they began to stroll towards the exit together. This, of course, angered the teen, as they were ignoring him, and one of the things he hated most was to be ignored. "And just where do you think you two are going!? I, the great Black Star, won't allow you to leave here alive!"

Agatha turned back then, to glance towards the boy who had just declared such a thing, and snorted in amusement. "Yeah, right. Good luck with that." With that, she pointed towards the busted up chandelier, though the large metal frame it was made of was still intact, and in doing so caused it to begin to levitate, just as the objects the meister had just finished dealing with had. Then, she opened her hand into a palm, and pushed it forward, sending the large chandelier flying towards the blue haired assassin. Not bothering to watch what happened afterward, she and Scarface proceeded to exit the establishment.

The chandelier speeding towards him, Black Star prepared to deal with it, just as he had with the objects before it. Just as it reached him, with one well placed slash of his ninja blade, he cut the thing in two, it's momentum from before continuing to send it forward, causing the two halves to ram into the wall behind the black arm meister.

With that dealt with, he dashed towards the doors, looking to follow after the two. Unfortunately he was cut off by Leo Finnigan and Raphael Zara, both of whom were now dual wielding pistols, the weapons quickly aimed at the teenager. Knowing what was about to happen, the star assassin quickly took a defensive position, as the two Mafia family heads began blasting on him.

He guarded himself from the bullets, deflecting them with Tsubaki's blade just as fast as they were being fired. However, seeing as two of the pistols had semi-automatic fire, he wouldn't be able to stop doing so for even a moment, lest he get hit by one of the small led objects. That was before one bullet ricocheted off of Black Star's ninja sword and went through Leo's knee, ripping through the flesh until tearing out of the back and continuing on until it buried itself into the wall.

The man fell to one knee then, grasping the leg that had been shot on instinct, as if it would lessen the pain, dropping both of his guns as he did. This caught Raphael's attention, his eyes catching on his injured fellow mobster, and while it was only a second's worth of a distraction, it was more than enough of an opening for Black Star to take advantage of. Doing so by rushing the two and burying his blade into Raphael's chest all the way to the hilt, the man's eyes widening in shock and pain, as blood began to stain his suit. The blue haired meister quickly ripped the sword from his flesh then, the mob family head's grip on his weapons loosening, causing them to fall from his grasp and clatter onto the ground, before he himself followed suit, collapsing onto the ground as he died from the internal trauma the blade had caused going in and being torn out of him.

The rising in ranks assassin then wasted no time in ending Leo's life as well, doing so by impaling his head from the side, the blade of his ninja sword ripping through the side of his face and skull, coming out the other side, still covered in blood, though this time it was mostly Leo's rather than Raphael's. He removed his weapon from the man's head, his body falling sideways to the floor, hitting it with a thump.

Those two now dealt with, Black Star raced out of the restaurant, hoping to be able to catch up to and end the two who had gotten away, so he could keep his word and make his weapon partner a Death Scythe.


Even after several minutes of thorough searching, there was still no sign of Scarface or Agatha. Since this was the case, Black Star took to the rooftops, hoping to be able to see them from the vantage point he would have from there. However, as he scanned the surrounding area from his position, he still couldn't find hide nor hair of them. Letting out an annoyed sigh, he prepared to jump back down to ground level, just before he could though, he caught sight of Soul and Maka. "Wait a sec, is that Soul and Maka?"

Tsubaki glowed for a second as she changed shape once more, transforming back into her human form. Once the glow faded and she stood by her meister's side, she too took notice of the two individuals below them, and they were indeed Soul Eater and Maka Albarn. They were standing by Soul's bike, between two buildings. They watched as Maka stamped one of her feet onto the ground in obvious frustration, saying something as she did. Her white haired weapon replied, prompting her to speak once more. Though since they were up on the rooftops, a building or so away from the two, neither Black Star nor Tsbaki could hear what had been said between the two. As the two then got on Soul's bike and sped away, Tsubaki, curious as to what they were doing out here, couldn't help but wonder aloud, "I wonder what they were doing out this late?"

"Knowing my Buddy, he's probably finally putting the moves on Maka. Yep, looks like my pure awesomeness has finally rubbed off on him and given him the confidence boost he needed to ask her out."

Tsubaki giggled at that. "I'm sure you're right Black Star."


Since they had been unable to locate either Scarface or Agatha, the black arm weapon and meister pair returned to the restaurant they had left in shambles, and the former began to consume the souls of the fallen mobsters. While all the bodies were gone, having disappeared in swirls of black shortly after they had perished, all the blood gave away the fact that many deaths had occurred here this night.

Once Tsubaki had finished with the last soul, her partner jumped for joy. "HA! That makes ninety eight souls! We're getting so close!"

The dark haired girl just gave a warm smile and a nod of her head in return.

Black Star's smile waned a bit as he spoke once more, "I'm sorry I let the witch get away Tsubaki, but don't worry. After all...EVEN GODS MAKE MISTAKES! BUT I SWEAR ON MY AWESOME GODLINESS, I SHALL MAKE YOU A DEATH SCYTHE ONE DAY, JUST YOU WATCH!"

Unlike how most people would react to the blue haired teen screaming this near the top of his lungs, Tsubaki smile merely widened. "I know you will." Black Star's smile regained it's original width at that.

"Well, it's pretty late, we should probably get home and get some sleep Black Star."

"Right, okay then, let's head back to my place of godly resting!"

With that the two left the building and began their way home.
