A/N: *sigh*SORRY! i totally had the worst two weeks of my life! ..some problems at home AND a stupid writers block! But then! My muse came back from her holiday and made me burst with new inspiration!

I promise to have chapter two up before sunday!

Chapter one: Breathe in

It has been four years since she last saw her Weapon. Since anyone saw their Weapon. The day after that horrible night it became clear the world leaders had decided to take the Weapons and to store them somewhere they wont be a danger to society.

Of course every Meister opposed to this, but even Shinigami-sama said it would be for the best. So there was nothing they could do since they didn't knew where their Weapons were taken to.

Blair sadly watched Maka clean the entire apartment. She always did this on Thursdays. On Monday she did all the shopping, Tuesday was laundry day, Wednesday was the day she borrowed six books from the library and read them all in three hours, Friday was baking day, Saturday she'd spend the day grooming Blair and on Sundays she took some rest.

It had been like this for three years now. The first year after the witches took Soul away, Maka tried anything to find out the location of her Weapon, slowly driving herself insane. Luckily she snapped out of it in time and started up a busy schedule.

"Maka..?" Blair carefully asked. "The apartment is totally clean! Why don't you hang out with Black*Star and Kid today?"

"No," Maka replied, concentrating on some dust. "Black*Star is on some kind of assassin mission and no one knows where Kid is."

Blair blinked, "Why not?"

"He disappeared five days ago." Maka shrugged and got back to her cleaning.

Blair frowned, "If Soul-kun was here then he'd-"

The cat quickly put her hand over her mouth and watched Maka with wide eyes. It was highly forbidden to speak 'his' name when Maka was there.
Maka could feel her heart grow heavy and flashbacks appeared in her mind. She stood still and clutched the hem of her sweater in her pale hands.

Blair jumped in front of Maka, waving her hands innocently, "I-I didn't mean it like that Maka! You believe me don't nya?"

Maka smiled, which only scared Blair, "Did you say something?"

Blair slowly put her hands down, "N-no, nothing.."

Blair let out a sigh as Maka continued her cleaning. It still wasn't a good reaction, but they've improved the last four years..

Normally Maka would lock herself in her room and wouldn't come out for nothing. Not even to eat. After a few hours she'd eventually come out and act like nothing happened.

The few times Blair had seen Black*Star and Kid they'd tried everything not to bring up anything that would remind them of their weapons. Even though they wouldn't let anything about the weapons slip from their mouths, their eyes showed how much they missed them.

"Maka," Blair said sweetly, not wanting to upset her again. "I'm going to Chupa Cabra's, alright?"

Maka nodded, "Sure, have fun."

Blair nervously walked out the door, feeling a bit guilty to leave Maka alone.

Blair walked the streets of Death City alone, she knew something was off. People were running down the small alleys, all going the same way. Blair, the curious cat as she was, decided to follow them.
"Excuse me~!" Blair sang to a boy who was also running. "Why is everyone running?"

"Some guy announced he had find out the location of the Weapons!"

"Really!" Blair smiled broadly. "I have to go get Maka!"

Blair elegantly transformed into her cat form and ran as fast her her paws could go back to the apartment.

"Maka!" Blair yelled as she landed softly on the ground after jumping trough the open window. "Come quick!"

"What's wrong, Blair?" Maka asked, walking into the living room with a dirty cloth in her hands.

"You're coming with me!" Blair transformed back into her human form and grabbed Maka by her wrist and pulled her out to the hallway.

"What are you doing?" Maka yelled, trying to free her wrist out of Blair's grip.

Blair paid no attention to Maka's struggles, "You won't believe me if I told you.."

It took Blair a full 15 minutes to get Maka to where the large crowd of Meisters had gathered. The Shinigami fountain was surrounded by people, all talking frantically to each other. Blair let go of Maka.

"What's going on here, Blair?" Maka asked.

"MAKA!" no one other then Black*Star made his way out of the crowd. "You here too, huh?"

Maka nodded, "But what's going on.."

And as on cue someone silenced the group meisters by no one other then Death the Kid. The black haired man stood calm as the crowd waited for him to speak.

"Meisters of Death City," he said. "As you all can remember, four years ago our Weapons were brutally taken from us to a place unknown...until now."

Maka watched Kid with wide eyes as he continued his speech, "I have found the exact location of were the Weapons have been taken."

A wave of voices broke out as Maka let the information sink in. Blair watched her, hoping for the reaction she wanted to see. Black*Star was, of course, the first who spoke to Kid directly.

"Well what are we doing here then!" he yelled. "Let's go!"

"It's not that easy," Kid sighed. "We have to sail across a dangerous ocean and I have not found someone who wants to take me there.."

"Blair might know someone!" Blair smiled holding her hand up. "A captain who lives in the Port of San Juan."

"We'll try him then!" Black*Star laughed.

"You're underestimating the situation here," Kid said annoyed. "The Atlantic Ocean is full of sea monster and other dangerous beings. We don't have our Weapons so we are easy targets to them."

This didn't had any affect on Black*Stars enthusiasm and he started to jump around, "Tsubaki! I'm coming to get ya!"

"Will you shut up for one lousy minute, you noisy bastard!" Kid yelled in the blue haired boy's ear as he held him in a tight choke hold.

"Can't...breath.."

"But," Kid said when he let go of Black*Star, who fell on the ground trying to catch his breath. "I have a plan. Maka, Black*Star and myself will go to the island and investigate the situation. If it's safe enough we'll get the other Meisters there and free the Weapons together."

"YAHOO~!" Black*Star stood up, pumping his fist in the air. "Adventure! Adventure! We're going on an adventure! Tsubaki!"

Kid went to talk to Blair as the group of Meister talked to each other, "So you know someone who might take us to the island?"

Blair nodded, 'Blair met him on vacation! He's really nice. He lives in a small house in the Port. Lemme give you his address, nya."

Maka frowned as she watched Blair writing the captain's address on a small paper and handing it over to Kid. She couldn't understand how Kid and Black*Star could deal with this so easily. She was, to be completely honest, a little afraid of seeing Soul after four years. She's afraid he'll be mad at her for not rescuing him, for forgetting about him..

"OI, MAKA!" Maka looked up and saw Black*Stars smiling face. "Let's go save Soul and Tsubaki!"

A smile crept slowly on Maka's face and she nodded, deciding her fears didn't matter now. She would deal with them after their mission.

A/N: DONE! Next chapter: Port of San Juan and the crazy Captain!
