Alright I am writing this chapter because I can not think of how to continue on the newest chapter of SMH2 even though I got two pages done I don't want it to be short.
Well welcome back! Now we are going to find some wacky alliances being formed in this chapter and the beginning of friendships! The 'What the fuck?' kind of friendships!
I aint using bold because I'm awesome like that! Actually I just am feeling LAZY today!
Alright and story start
NOW
In Africa
"Excuse me; miss, if you could spare one minute of your time- um sir could you perhaps help me with something- um…" Tsubaki was trying to ask the people of a small town if they knew anything about the Scythe but no one would actually stop to talk to her, or at least listen to her, they would all quicken there pace at her. She guessed the fact that she may have been messing up on her translation to there language (I do not know what language is the main language in Africa! I tried googleing it but it was a fail!) was a part of that.
"I wish someone would please just tell me about the Scythe…" Tsubaki mumbled quietly to herself as she walked hanging her head down in shame that she her attempt to get information was failing. She wanted to find the Scythe so that Blackstar might not abandon her for not being strong.
She suddenly ran into something hard and fell down. She let out a small mewl of surprise as she hit the ground.
"Oh! I am so sorry! I should have been watching where I was going!" A voice- a young male from the sounds of it- said quickly. Tsubaki opened her eyes to see a young kid probably her age with jet black hair and pale blue eyes holding a hand out to help her up.
"Sorry about that, I had my nose in a book and wasn't watching where I was going." He apologized and Tsubaki took his hand and he hoisted her up. He then knelt down to pick up the book he dropped. He was wearing a pair of dark blue jeans and had on a red shirt that the sleeves went down to his elbow showing his pale skin color.
"Touching Spirit Bear?" Tsubaki asked as she eyed the cover. He rubbed the back of his head.
"Yeah, I just finished a different book and thought this one would be cool to read." He admitted with a sheepish smile. Tsubaki noticed that he looked and sounded like he was from America, she wondered what his reason for being in Africa was then. "And so far it is a great book."
"I'm Tsubaki." She said realizing they didn't know each others names and held out her hand in a friendly gesture. The boy smiled and shook her hand and Tsubaki noticed that his teeth were sharp, not like Souls teeth, but more like, fangs.
"My name's Sora." He said and gave a sheepish smile. "You're probably going to say that's a girls name and I know, but a few boys are named Sora too." He smiled. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Tsubaki." He said.
"It's very nice to meet you too Sora." Tsubaki returned the smile and a thought struck her. This could be her chance! "Hey, um, Sora." Tsubaki began catching the teen's attention. "Do you, know anything about a weapon called the Scythe of Time?"
Soras expression darkened for a moment before he spoke. "Come with me." He said and walked off towards a café. "Better other ears don't hear thing's they shouldn't hear." He added.
Death City
"Oh boy….." Death sighed looking in the mirror that kept switching to scenes in different places around the world. "This is bad, very bad." The cheerfulness was gone from his voice.
"What's wrong? Something bad happen while the kids are drowning in there selfish desires?" Stein asked spinning on his wheelie chair.
"Yes, it seems that not only is people from Shibusen after it, but word must have spread…." Death said and moved so Stein could see the images of some of there enemies searching for the legendary weapon as well. "I don't know why, but I have a feeling that by finding the scythe, there going to end up causing something horrible- even worse then Asuras resurrection- to happen…. I'm probably worrying over nothing, but the way they've all turned on each other, friends who were so close…." Death trialed off as he watched the scene.
"If I could, I would go to each of them and give them a Reaper Chop." He added you could actually see the rage coming off of the grim reaper. "That might knock some sense into them."
Stein laughed. "I hope one of them bring the scythe to me, it might be interesting to study it seeing how an inanimate object with no life in it can conjure up so much power." He laughed.
Somewhere in New York
"Damn it all." Maka swore as she tried to get around the are covered thickly with trees. It was dark and she couldn't see more then a foot in front of her and she was running into branches so much she was ready to set the entire area to flames. But that would cause her to get arrested and she would never reach her goal, so she settled for Maka Chopping anything she saw that got in her way.
The poor trees were no match to the mighty strength of the pissed off female meister and her hard cover book. The birds that watched and all the other creatures that saw the abuse the trees were getting were all thinking the same thing: The poor trees don't deserve this abuse…..
Maka swore once more before tripping. As she fell her book flew out of her hand and she landed painfully onto the soft ground.
"Crap!" Maka swore realizing she couldn't see her book. She sat up and thought a moment on the surprisingly soft and boney ground.
Wait….boney and soft…?
"You sure do have a potty mouth." A male said from below her and stared at her so Maka saw three red eyes that seemed to have eyes in them.
"KISHIN?" Maka yelled jumping up and away from the demon god.
"Yes, who else would it be? Santa Clause?" Asura asked standing up and there was a rustle of clothing so Maka figured he was brushing the dirt off his clothes. "And you would be one of Deaths students if you know me." He said.
"Correct, I am a Shibusen student. What are you doing here? Collecting human souls to eat?" Maka accused pointing an accusing finger at him.
"I should be asking the same of you, you must not be on a mission if you don't have a partner with you. And to correct you, I am not searching for a meal, but a weapon to be correct." Asura said and Makas blood ran cold.
A weapon…? Could he be searching also for the scythe also?
Maka could see his red eyes glowing the darkness, the moonlight reflecting off them.
"What are you doing here anyways? On vacation?" He asked (I can not get online as I am writing this! Nothing will load!) casually and jumped to sit on a branch.
"I'm searching for a weapon also." Maka said confidently. She wasn't gonna let the kishin see her fear, he wasn't going to scare her! She would not show fear to this coward!
"hmm, would the weapon your searching for happen to be a legendary scythe told in a few myths?" Asura asked. "Because that is the weapon I am searching for." He added.
Maka said nothing.
"Heh, well wanna team up?" Asura asked and shocked the meister with that question. Maka couldn't say anything for she was to stunned to answer and Asura laughed. "I take that as a yes!" He said and Maka felt his scarves wrap around her body keeping her in a tight hold that she couldn't escape from. "We are a team now!" He cheered.
Maka had one thought running through her head- WHAT THE FUCK?
Excalibur's Cave
"FOOL!" Excalibur shouted smacking Kid on the head with his cane. "How dare you say there is a weapon mightier then I, the great Excalibur!" he yelled hitting the young reaper on the head once more. "There is no such weapon stronger then me!" He yelled and Kid dodged the third blow.
"I don't care if you claim your stronger or not, I just want to know what you know about a weapon called the Scythe of Time!" Kid snapped yanking the cane away from the white imp. "So just tell me already!" He snapped.
Excalibur was fuming with rage now! No one touches his cane! No one! Definitely not this insolent grim reaper!
"GIVE IT BACK INSOLENT BOY!" Excalibur yelled reaching for the cane but Kid held it at his eye level, out of the weapons reach. "Give me back my cane or you'll be sorry!" Excalibur yelled as Kid smirked.
"Are you challenging me? A grim reaper? You will die if you fight me," Kid snickered as Excalibur tried for the cane again. "Tell me everything you know of the Scythe of Time and I'll give you back the cane." Kid offered.
"Fine! Sit down and I'll tell you a tale handed down through years about the weapon you seek." Excalibur said and suddenly there was a table, purple cloth over it, a crystal ball, and Excalibur was dressed as a fortune teller.
Kid sat down crosslegged across him and Excalibur waved his hands over the ball and the image became cloudy before a image became to form.
"During the beginning of civilization everything was peaceful, there were no gods, no evil, and no misery, everything was peaceful and everyone lived in harmony" Excalibur spoke and the image showed a small village by a waterfall. The image zoomed in to a young man of roughly around twenty in ripped dirty clothes sweating and working at some sort of mill building something.
"But there was one man who wanted something more then peace, he wanted power, he wanted people see him as a god, as the line between life and death." The image turned to him again, but he had a darkened expression and Kid could sense the power hungry soul. "The line between life and death, that is what he wanted to control, he spoke to the eldest witch one of the first living creatures on earth and she told him a way to get what he wanted. 'Go to the sacred tree on the mountains with the youngest or your kin and kill him using the weapon of the one you hate most, let the blood mix with the sap of the tree and drink it, the blood of death and the sap of life will grant you the power you wish, but it will not allow a second try, one mistake in the process will cause you never to achieve your wish.' is what she said"
"The man despised his older brother to no end for his parents giving his brother the better half of the inheritance, engaging him to the woman he loved and fathering the child of the same woman. So taking the brothers hunting knife and stealing away the mans son of age only ten, the son was the youngest kin of his and the knife was of belonging to the man he hated, both key ingredients to what was needed. Thus taking the child to the tree he threw him on the floor and drove the knife through the child's still beating heart watching with cold triumph as the blood mixed with the sap that ran off the tree."
"dumping his hands in the mix he drunk a handful of the liquid. Feeling nothing different he saw a squirrel running by and tried to test his powers to kill it but nothing worked. Enraged he went to the witch. 'You have tricked me! I killed my youngest kin with the weapon of the one I hated most and drank the mix of the blood and sap but I am not a god now!' he yelled enraged. 'You did not kill your youngest kin.' The witch said calmly"
"The man grabbed her by the throat driven nearly insane with rage he tightened his grip demanding her to tell him why his brothers son was not his youngest kin. 'Your sister had given birth to a daughter, she bore the baby girl while you were making your trek up the mountain with the boy, the child was not your youngest kin anymore.' The witch said her voice broken and filled with gasps for air. 'What? How could that have been! She was not carrying any child! She was not even of marriage!' the man roared and tightened his grip on the knife intent on stabbing her suddenly everything around him froze."
"Looking around nothing moved, the leaves that were falling stood frozen in air the birds flying ahead were still as death. He let go of the witch to find her frozen still as well. 'what is this?' the man asked everything was frozen in time but him. 'Is this some trick from a different witch in hopes of saving her?' he asked gazing at the witch. Soon he discovered that he in fact had gained powers, the power over time and space."
"Finding his powers more entertaining he used his powers to make him king of the land his village was of. For ten years he amused himself with his powers until soon his powers began to use him. learning he could not control them he became engulfed with fear. He went to find the witch that told him how to get the powers only to learn that a law he made caused his men to kill the witch. With no knowledge of how to destroy the powers he did the only thing he could think of." Excalibur said and the image of the panicking man disappeared.
"Well what did he do?" Kid asked irritated that it ended, it was really good and was reaching the climax!
"That's all there is to it, there is no official thing as to what happened, some say he killed himself, some say he went back in time to stop him from gaining those powers. No one knows." Excalibur said with a shrug. "Now…Gimme back my cane fool!" Excalibur said and Kid handed the cane back to the midget. "FOOL!" Excalibur yelled smashing the cane on Kids head.
"…" Kid said nothing other then make the 'Excalibur Face' and leave.
