Soul Eater:
Blood of Immortals
Ch. 3: Moon Rescue, Crona Returns
It was about 3:10 p.m. in the afternoon. Castor had just off-screen told of her plan to the DWMA and right now Kid was going to discuss it with Sid. They were walking down the hallways while talking at the same time.
Sid: Wow sounds like this woman has thought of everything.
Kid: Yes, she says that we need to use the same transportation that we used to get the moon in the first place, but I instead told her that in the time I too was trying to figure out a plan to rescue Crona I built a ship during my free time just in case that way we could get to the moon easily without any trouble.
Sid: I see so now what's next?
As Kid was about to speak an unexpected guest arrived all of a sudden.
?: YA HOO!
Sid: I know that scream.
Kid: Yes, I do too.
The mysterious stranger appeared next the two, but not alone. It was none other than Black Star and Tsubaki.
Black Star: Hey, Kid and Sid did you guys miss your star?!
Kid: The only star or stars I see are at night in the sky Black Star, but yes I am glad you're here.
Sid: Me too.
Kid: By the way how was your mission in London?
Black Star: Easy, Tsubaki and I really kicked that witch's ass straight to hell.
Kid: I see.
Black Star: Now Tsubaki has become a death scythe.
Tsubaki: Heh. Yeah it was quite the achievement.
Kid: Excellent I am glad to hear that, but it took long enough. I mean Maka and I already made our weapons death scythes before you even did.
Black Star: Yeah, yeah, so I hear something is going on?
Sid: Yes it's…
Kid put his hand on Sid's shoulder to stop him from saying anything else.
Sid: Sir?
Kid: Sid I think I should explain it to him. We really don't have much time. Go ahead and get the ship ready for takeoff.
Sid: Understood.
Sid passed Black Star and Tsubaki leaving the two confused.
Tsubaki: Um…Kid is there something that is going on?
Black Star: Yeah, start talking what is going on that is you keep making a big deal out of?
Kid: Alright if you insist I shall explain the whole story.
Kid told them in a few minutes off-screen showing the DWMA outside and Black Star screamed in shock.
Black Star: WHAT?!
Tsubaki: Are you serious there is a way to free Crona?
Kid: Yes, that is what I sent Sid for. He is going to get the ship I had built ready for liftoff.
Tsubaki looked at the ground in shock.
Tsubaki: I…I can't believe it.
Kid: Well let's go so that way we can end this pain once and for all…for everyone.
It was about 4:50 p.m. in the afternoon. All the students left the school leaving Kid and the others to continue in their plans with Castor. Underneath DWMA was a secret lab that Stein had built in the three months that Asura was defeated until this day. Its walls were stone and around the area were tables with computers, chemicals labeled dangerous, wires were hanging loose on the floor, and in the middle the ship that they would going use to get to the moon where Crona was.
Maka: Whoa, it's huge.
Soul: Yeah, though the question is does it work.
Black Star: Yeah, what if it's just a piece of junk that breaks down. I mean professor Stein you might be a teacher, but I think if we ride this were going to end up dead as those animals you dissect on.
Tsubaki: Black Star I don't think it's a good idea to insult the professor's work.
Stein was shaded in; his eyes were white due to the lighting in the room reflecting off his glasses, he turn around looking to everyone else angry and not happy with that comment from Black Star.
Sid: Oh man, you really shouldn't have done that Black Star. Now he really is going to kill you. He won't go easy on you like the time you came into his house without permission and tried to cheat on the exam.
Everyone was getting terrified at Stein because of the look on his face.
Maka: Professor Stein?
Tsubaki: Pro…Professor I can tell you Black Star didn't mean it. Please it was just a misunderstanding.
Stein took out a knife from his pocket pointing it at them.
Everyone: Uh…Professor?
Stein: Do you really think I am going to take that from a weakling like you Black Star?
Stein began to show movement in a way that looked like he was going to attack even Castor was worried, but then…
Stein: Just kidding.
Everyone: WHAT?!
All the people in the room were shocked with anger and confusion.
Maka: Bu…but I thought you were going to kill us or Black Star. I mean professor he did make that one comment and we were just worried that you were mad at us.
Stein: No, actually I promised myself that I would make one little joke before we got serious and headed off to save Crona just to lighten the mood.
Kid: You couldn't have waited until…after we got back?
Stein: Nope, but did it help calm you all down?
Everyone: NO!
Stein: Well, fuck you all then.
Stein looked over and saw Spirit with that he gave him a friendly hello making his presence altered to everyone.
Stein: Hey spirit!
Everyone turned around and saw Spirit come down the steps.
Spirit: Sorry I am late I had more important things to deal with.
Spirit looked around at everyone to see who was her when he saw, Maka, his little angel (not really).
Spirit: Hi, Maka!
Maka: Hi…dad.
Spirit: So are we ready?
Kid: Yes, we are come along Liz and Patty.
Patty: Right, Kid! Yeah!
Liz: Ye…yeah right.
Patty: Come sis let's go!
Liz was shaking, but she stood behind Patty.
Liz: Ok. You though go ahead first Patty just to be safe.
Maka: Come on Soul let's go Crona is waiting for us.
Soul: Ok, ok, hold on my arm can't take it when you yank onto me like that.
Black Star: Come on Tsubaki let's go.
Tsubaki: Right.
Sid looked at Stein and Spirit.
Sid: You guys ready?
Both: Yeah.
Spirit: Hey, Stein is this thing really able to fly at full power.
Stein: What do you mean?
Spirit: I mean will it handle getting close to the moon and is it build for this mission. I need to know if they will be no mistakes.
Stein and Spirit looked at each other eye to eye.
Stein: Well…I guess we all find out.
Spirit's mouth dropped to the ground as Stein walked away.
Sid: Come on hurry up Spirit when running on a schedule here.
Spirit: Okay.
As everyone got onboard Kid stopped for a sec to talk with Castor as he grabbed her arm.
Castor: Yes, is there something Lord Death?
Kid looked at her with a fire in his eyes.
Kid: If you are trying something, if you are just using us, or worse if you plan to kill Crona or any of my comrades than hell will be brought upon you. Got that!
Castor: Are you done?
Kid: Yes.
Castor: Than let's get a move on.
All members were inside the ship with Stein and Sid piloting the controls and Kid and Castor along with everyone else were right behind. The ship itself had a grim reaper face similar to Kid's father's face on the front, the wings and most of the body were black, the white lines around Kid's head were the patterns around the ship's wings as well as it's cone on top. Lastly on the right side was the logo, DWMA painted in gold. The top roof of the DWMA started to open, smoke started to come out of the back of the ship hitting the ground, and slowly it started to rise.
Kid: Alright everyone our number one mission is to free Crona from the prison of the black blood surrounding the moon so when we get there Castor is going to be in command.
Everyone: Right!
The ship started to leave the city heading directly towards the moon at hipper speed.
Maka (In Thought): Don't worry Crona were on our way.
A few minutes later at about exactly 9:30 p.m. Kid and the others arrive at the moon.
Kid: Alright, everyone we have reached out destination.
Stein: I'll keep the ship running if we land we too could be stuck in the black blood as well inside the madness of Asura.
Sid: Right.
Kid looked at Castor.
Kid: Ok, Castor now I am handing the leadership over to you.
Castor stands up, standing tall, and in front of everyone. Stein looks at her again.
Stein: There isn't something right about that woman, but what is it?
Castor: Alright, now here is what we are going to do. I need each one of you to listen to me very carefully otherwise this mission will fail and none of you will see Crona again.
Everyone's eyes wide at the sound of that.
Castor: But, if you all listen and follow me than everything will go as planned. First, Maka I hear you are good at detecting souls.
Maka: Yes, I am Mrs. Castor.
Castor: I will only need you and your weapon for this part and as for everyone else stay here.
Black Star: Hey, hold up what's the deal I thought we all came here to help?
Castor: You did, but as backups I only need this young girl right and this book.
She held up the Book of Eibon right in front of everyone.
Castor: Hey, Zombie I need you to open the roof for us to get through.
Sid: Okay. Oh, by the way the name is Sid.
Sid opened up the roof of the ship slowly until there was enough space for the two to get through unharmed.
Castor: Okay, that's enough come on Maka.
Maka: Right.
Castor looked at Soul.
Castor: Soul come on this mission won't be successful without you and your partner.
Soul: I trying to get up there, but I can't reach it's too high.
Castor: Maka grab his hands.
Maka: Come on Soul.
Soul: Alright.
Soul grabbed onto Maka's hands as she pulled him up with them.
Kid as well as everyone else looked at them.
Kid: Be careful you guys. This is only a one shot experience.
Castor, Maka, and Soul were near the moon standing on top of the ship.
Castor: Ok, this is where things get crazy. First Maka turn Soul into weapon form and lock souls with him.
Maka: Right, Soul now.
Soul: Got it.
Soul transformed and as he hit Maka's hands the two remained calm and still.
Maka: Remember Soul this is for Crona.
Soul: Yeah, I know you don't need to remind me.
Castor: Now concentrate you two and don't mess up. While you do that I will give you the signal to transfer you soul energy into the Book of Eibon.
Maka: Why the book though.
Castor: Because you energy will fill the book making it enough power to make a connection to Crona's location and allowing us to get a grip on her pulling her out, but first you two must lock souls, then Maka use your ability to track Crona's soul at the same time while in control. The last part I already told you now are you ready?
Both: Yeah.
Castor: Now…do it Maka!
Maka: Soul.
Soul: Right.
Both (Maka and Soul): Soul Resonance!
The two started to glow and the souls started to combine to the point where it was visible to the Earth itself. Castor waited and then looked at the moon slowly opening the book.
Maka: Come on Crona I know your there.
Maka searched deeply for Crona's soul in the black void, but there was nothing at first until. A small light appeared right in front of her.
Maka: Cro…Crona? Crona!
Maka kept reaching on and on trying to get a grip and for a second on the other side Crona could feel Maka as well.
Crona: Maka?
Soul: Hurry Maka we need to hurry time is running out!
Maka: Almost got it.
Then for a second a bit of madness surrounded Maka separating her away from Crona's soul.
Maka: No, Crona! Uh…no, I won't lose her again. Not this time.
Maka grabbed onto Crona's soul busting through the Kishins eyes as well as the madness.
Maka: Got it!
Castor: Excellent, now transfer you resonance over to me into the book.
Slowly they did carefully inch by inch until all the energy of the two students was now in the book. The book itself started to glow light blue as the sky.
Castor: Perfect now time for my part.
Castor put her hands on the pages of the book and recited an ancient spell of unknown. As she did so a huge amount of energy flowed out of the Book of Eibon and launched itself at the moon.
Castor: Yes, it hit the moon. Now all it needs to do is break through the black blood.
Kid: Their doing it.
Liz: Alright go you guys!
Black Star: Dam it they better succeed.
Sid: Stein, check it out. Something is happening to the moon.
Stein: Huh?
Sid: The black barrier around the moon it's forming a crack.
Stein: That means that the power of a very powerful meister and weapon combine with the Book of Eibon is too much for the madness or the black blood to handle. Whatever Maka, Soul, and Castor are doing it's working.
The black blood started to crack a little making a small point big enough to reach inside.
Castor: That's our point we need. Now activating resonance!
The energy reached inside making black blood drip out of the small crack , but then a little bit of madness as well came forth affecting most of everyone that was near.
Kid: Uh…dam it they need to hurry. If we don't close up that hole soon Asura will be able to escape.
Tsubaki: Guys look something is coming out.
The line of soul resonance started to come back pulling an object out.
Maka: Crona?
Soul: Come on.
The line was freed along with Crona in its arms.
Maka: Crona!
Soul: Yes, it worked.
Everyone cheered in joy and relief. Until…a huge spirit of madness was trying to escape and break free from the crack that was made. It was madness formed by Asura.
Asura: Yes….free…I am almost free!
Kid: Castor! Now, close it now before he escapes.
Castor: Right.
With the remaining energy Castor pushed the Kishin back inside, but it wasn't enough.
Ausra: No, I am not going back in that void!
Castor: Dammit.
Suddenly a hand was on Castor. It was Kid and everyone else except for Sid and Stein, who were helping by keeping the ship in the air.
Castor: What…are you.
Kid: Let's finish this together and go home.
Everyone: Right!
One by one each person transferred their energy into the book pushing the Kishin back further and further.
Asura: No! No! Dammit!
Everyone: Be gone Asura!
Suddenly Asura's spirit was sent back inside sealing the whole up again causing a huge explosion of light for a sec. There was a moment of calm for a few minutes.
Tsubaki: Is it over?
Kid: Castor, is it?
Castor stood up out of breath for a second, but then back at full strength again.
Castor: Yeah it is.
Maka: Guys look its Crona.
Everyone looked over at Crona unconscious and smiled with relief.
Stein: Kid we got to go.
Kid: Right, let's go everyone. Maka grab Crona and took her inside.
Soul: I'll help you Maka.
Black Star: Same here.
They all started to get back inside as the doors closed in behind them.
Sid: Alright everyone here?
Everyone: Yeah.
Stein: Heading back to Death City…now.
As the ship started to turn away it showed inside the moon a cave. Inside the cave lied the Kishin himself, Asura.
Asura: Fools…soon things will be going my way because there are more like me out there. I can sense them…isn't that right Justin Law.
Behind Asura in the shadows were the sound of headphones and then footsteps came out. It was none other than his loyal servant, Justin Law, and alongside him was the clown.
Justin Law: Yes, my lord of darkness.
It was about 10:00 p.m. everyone was in the emergency room waiting for Crona to wake up. It took a minute, but Crona's eyes started to open up.
Crona: M…Maka?
Maka: Hey.
Soul: Glad to see your steal appeal to speak.
Crona: Y…yeah I guess.
Kid: Alright look it's getting late we better give Crona her rest.
Stein: Agreed.
Maka: But, Kid.
Spirit puts his hands on Maka and smiled down at her.
Maka: Dad.
Spirit: Look I know we just got her back, but its best Crona have enough strength to actually talk. So let's at least give her some rest tonight.
Maka: O…okay. Crona will be back in the morning okay.
Crona: Alright.
Liz: Get some rest okay Crona.
Crona: Yeah.
Patty rushed up to Crona and hugged her with joy.
Patty: Good-night Crona!
Crona: Uh…good-night guys.
Everyone started to head out the door knowing that Crona was safe and sound. Though Crona seemed to be bothered for a moment with something as for a second she saw her mother, Medusa, once again and then gone in a flash. Crona cried a little bit, but quite.
Crona: M….Medusa.
Although what Crona didn't know was Kid was the last one to head out just now and he heard all of that. At that moment Kid stopped and turned around coming inside.
Kid: Crona? Crona is everything alright?
Crona: Huh…Kid?
Kid: I heard you crying outside the door. Is something wrong?
Corna's eyes widen realizing he heard her. She turned around and denied it.
Crona: No…I wasn't crying. I'm fine everything is alright.
Kid: Promise?
Crona: Ye…yeah.
Kid: Alright.
As he walked up to the door about to open it he stopped in his tracks. Crona looked up at him seeing that he hadn't left yet.
Crona: Kid?
Kid: Crona you can tell me anything you know that right?
Crona: Yeah…I guess. I mean yes.
Kid walked over to Crona's bed and sat by her side putting his hand on hers. Crona's face turned a shade of red.
Crona: Uh…Kid what are you doing?
Kid looked up at her serious in his expression and his eyes.
Kid: Crona, you know if there is something bothering you that I want to make sure you are okay. You were in that prison for three months and yet still I feel that there's something you hiding that is making you suffer. So please I promise for it to be our secret, but please trust me enough to at least tell what's wrong so that way I may help you.
At that moment Crona's eyes widen at his words and at the same time tears came down her cheeks running down her dress.
Kid: Crona?
Crona instantly grab Kid and hugged him tight putting her face in his chest. Kid's face was a little red now mainly because of the sudden event.
Crona: Ki…Kid…I…I killed my…
Kid: What is it?
Crona: I KILLED MY MOTHER! I KILLED MEDUSA-SAMA!
Kid's eyes widen at this not only because it was true, but because of who it was that had been killed. But even though that happen Kid still looked at Crona with a pitiful look.
Crona: I deserve to die. My mother was finally being nice to me and I killed here because I wasn't used to her being so nice. I was confused and now I am alone. She must hate me so much right now.
Kid put his hand underneath Crona's chin rising up her head. Her face was looking at his.
Kid: Don't say such things Crona. You don't deserve to die because you done nothing wrong. Listen even though your mother did want to destroy us up till the very end I am pretty sure that even as a cold heartless witch she had a little love for her own child just as my father cared for me as well. Plus, you have friends and teachers here that care for you so much. In fact they put their lives in danger for you. My point is don't ever think you worthless and deserve such punishment because your mother even in death loves you and so do we, Crona.
Corna's eyes were wide now with tears still in them. Her heart was beating fast not only from what he said, but the way he said it. As Kid smiled he kissed Crona on the cheek to calm her down and comfort her. This two made Crona blush even more to where her face was a crimson red. Then Crona started to smile and hugged Kid again.
Crona: Thanks Kid. I needed that very much.
Kid: No problem I need to go now get some rest okay?
Crona: Okay, good-night.
Kid: Good-night.
As Kid got up he walked out turning off the lights. Crona laid there thinking of what he said. She closed her eyes peacefully with a simile as well.
Outside the building Kid was walking with Liz and Patty heading in for the night when he saw Castor walking by.
Kid: Castor!
Castor turned around seeing Kid was the one that called her. She walked up to him.
Castor: Yes what is it now?
Kid: I wanted to thank you.
Castor: About what?
Kid: About Crona. Everyone was so happy to see she was alright and I wanted to thank you because none of this would have been possible without your help.
Castor: Well I am glad to see that and thanks for the gratitude.
Kid: So now where are you going? Are you going to stay here or go somewhere else?
Castor: I might stay here for a bit. I still need to take care of a few more things. Plus maybe I help you out a little longer before leaving.
Kid: Great, well see you in morning.
Liz and Patty: Bye.
Castor: Yeah, see you guys.
As the moon started to shine pitch black and everyone headed in for the night something was entering Death City.
?: Well, well, well. Death City it's still the same as ever even back then. Though that's not important at the moment what is important though is the fact that you my son are here. You're here I finally tracked you down after these nine-hundred years. Now it's time to end this hunt once and for all.
As it showed this mysterious stranger he wore a black, leather jacket, a red T-shirt underneath, black jeans, black shoes on his feet, and a lustful look in his eyes as they were glowing crimson red. (Okay, now his face resembles that of Greed from Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, but before he possessed Ling's body.) (So basically it is his first form face.) (As for his hair it is back, but resembles that of Cobra from Fairy Tail.) (Lastly his blade it that similar to Ichigo's form Bleach only before it's in bankai mode.)
This mysterious person is a Kishin as well. He goes by the name of Austin.
Austin: Well now let's get down to business after all the fun is about began for the whole world to see as well as change in the process.
Chapter 3 End
Sorry if this was too long for all of you, but I really wanted to get into the more juicy details. Also if you know any of the characters or animes I mentioned than hopefully you got a view of what he looks like. Now if you wandering how Justin is alive wait until I explain before commenting about that. Hope you all are enjoying my fan fiction and I will give you more information as I work on chapter four.
