Okay, I know it's my third part today, but what can I say. I'm bored. I don't own Soul Eater. You'll be glad I don't. Also I'm going to be starting off this chapter with a fight scene. I know it'll be terrible, so please read and review. Also still looking for a Beta...

Kid fired two shots at Black Star, which were dodged with ease. He kept shooting, but he missed every time. At one point he saw and opening and went for it, pumping dozens of bullets towards him... Which passed right through him. "After-images?!" Kid exclaimed. He turned around to dodge the attack that would inevitably come, but was far too late. The next thing he knew, he was on the ground, beaten. But that wasn't the worst of it. "You... YOU GOT ONE OF MY SLEEVES DIRTY! I'M COMPLETELY ASYMMETRICAL! A TOTAL FAILURE! I don't deserve to live, I should just go die..." "Yeah, yeah, whatever, it'll wash out." Liz said huffily, evidently annoyed at losing. Patty just taunted Kid. "Anyway, Kid," Black Star began, "We have bigger fish to fry. Apparently Stein needs to talk to us about something to do with the Kishin. That Kishin... I, as the man who will surpass God, will bury it's head in the ground!" He smacked his fist into the palm of his hand.
oOoOoOo
"Let's see, Shini-Shini-Goroshi... Hello hello, Shinigami-sama?" "Ah, Maka. Stein has asked to see you and Soul urgently. He says it's... Urgent." "MAAAAAAAAKAAAAAAAAA, are you perfectly all right? Daddy will protect you."
One 'Direct Noggin Shinigami Chop' later...
"Anyway, you'd best be going now, Black Star and the others are on their way too." "Okay," replied Maka, "Bye Shinigami-sama."
oOoOoOo
"Is everyone here? Then I'll begin. I'm sure you're aware of the madness wavelength that is caused by the Kishin and the Black Blood, no? There are some people, such as myself, who are prone to being affected by it and going insane themselves, causing another mad wavelength. Now, because of the nature of this, this causes the wavelength to grow, causing more people to become infected, and causing it to grow even more. However I've discovered a way of counteracting this in Justin here. When I am close to him..." Stein moved over towards Justin, "...The wavelength lessens, and the speed at which I am infected gradually slows, until finally it stops." "Why are you telling us this? We aren't prone to it as you are." Maka queried. "Everyone is susceptible to madness, some people are just more resistant than others. In the end..." The maddest look entered Stein's eye for a split second, then faded and vanished. "…We're only human." "None of us are prone to the infection though, so I don't see why we, specifically were ca-" "Maka." Stein began, "Black Star is actually very susceptible." Black Star's eyes suddenly widened, the veins in the back of the eyeball becoming visible. "His father, White Star, became obsessed with power and became a Kishin. The same thing nearly happened to Black Star. I saw it in his eyes, one time recently when he was fighting Death The Kid. He's trying to avoid the demon's path, but it's a struggle uphill. Either way, that's enough for tonight, we'll continue our discussion in the lesson tomorrow. The next part involves everyone."
oOoOoOo
That night, Stein went to bed earlier than usual. Something was troubling him. It had worked with all the other subjects, so why didn't his madness stop spreading when he got close to Justin? "You've felt it, haven't you Stein? The madness... It isn't going to stop. It will consume you. But I can stop it. We can rule this madness, together." "Medusa... Is this the insanity or is that really you?" "This is me. So how about it, Stein? Will we rule, together?" And just for a moment, the most insane grin went across Stein's face.
"I'll think about it."
