Chapter 3

Later that day, everyone was getting ready for a party at Gallows Manor in honor of Marceline coming back. "How long has it been?" Liz asked the Reaper siblings. "Since you guys saw each other."

"Well I haven't seen her since I was nine so I'd say six years." Kid replied.

"Wait six years?" Maka asked. "That's crazy."

"Yeah." Kid said. "Something really bad happened that made her want to leave."

"And now I came back cause I missed you so much." Marceline said as she clung onto her older brother's arm. "She really is like your girlfriend." Soul observed.

"She's been like this since we were little." Kid said. "Come on Marci get off."

"No." Marceline replied. "And Marci? You haven't used that name in a while."

"I figured I may as well use it." Kid replied with a smile. "Yep just like a couple." The others said in unison.

"Hey no lovey-dovey buisness on my watch!" Blackstar yelled stupidly. "Only I can!"

"Does that mean you'll confess your love to Tsubaki?" Marceline asked. Blackstar and Tsubaki started to blush while they took one quick glance at each other, only to just turn away. "So we're off the hook?" Soul asked Marceline, hoping for the answer to be yes. "No." she replied. "You and Maka are still on my Couples that need to get together list."

"I could use a hand here." Maka called from the kitchen.

"Why don't you help Soul?" Marceline asked with a smirk on her face. "You are her weapon partner after all."

"I guess." Soul said as he walked in the kitchen to help his meister. Marceline let go of her brother and went to help Liz and Patty with the decorations. Blackstar was fooling aroun, Tsubaki was in the kitchen with Maka and Soul, and Kid was observing to see that everything was symmetrical. "Kid stop gawking at everything and get to work!" Liz yelled angrily.

"She's right Bro." Marceline said. "You oughta work once in a while."

"I am working." Kid replied. "I'm checking to make sure everything is perfect."

"And there he goes." Blackstar said while sweatdropping. Marceline was trying to put a decoration up until she fell off a ladder and landed in Kid's arms. "Thanks." she said while slightly blushing.

"It would be better if I held the ladder." Kid suggested. Marceline nodded as he put her down and she got back to what she was doing. "Right here?" she asked while holding up the bow. Kid put a hand to his chin and said "A little to the right." Marceline moved a little to the right and Kid gave a thumbs up. He held the ladder so Marceline could come down without falling like she did last time. "So what happened while I was gone?" she asked.

Soul and Maka walked out of the kitchen to hear what she just said, Blackstar and Tsubaki stared at her as well as the Thompson sisters and Kid. They all went to the living room so the seven of them could tell their story. "What!?" Marceline asked in pure shock. "Maka killed the Kishin!?"

"Hard to believe but yeah." Liz replied. Marceline went over and hugged Maka. "I'm a total fan of you now!" she yelled happily. "And you killed the witch Medusa?"

"Yeah." Maka replied. "She was giving a hard time to one of my friends." Marceline stayed quiet before she said "Thank you."

"Huh?"

"Marceline and I have a hard past with Medusa." Kid explained. "She destroyed something precious to us." Marceline nodded. "And that's why I left."

"Blackstar you're awfully quiet." Liz said. "Something wrong?"

"It's nothing." Blackstar replied. "I was just thinking about that fight. I would have killed the Kishin if my Enchanted Sword mode didn't die out on me."

"So who was that friends Medusa was giving a hard time on?" Marceline asked.

"His name is Crona." Maka said. "He's actually Medusa's son."

"What!?" Marceline exclaimed. "Why would she do that?! That's child abuse people!"

"Speaking of Crona we should invite him." Tsubaki suggested.

"Yeah good idea." Patty replied. "It should make him feel better after all that's happened."

"I bet he'll be happy to meet you Marceline." Maka said. "Unless he says"I don't know how to deal with people like her" or something." They all laughed then got back to work. Soon, the guest arrived and the party started. "Hey Crona over here!" Maka called over a pink-haired boy who looked rather nervous. He walked over and said "Oh hey guys. Long time no see."

"So this is Crona." Marceline said before she held out her hand to him. "Nice to meet you. I'm Marceline, Kid's little sister."

"You too." Crona said as he shook her hand. Then out of nowhere, a small, black figure appeared on his back. He had white gloves for hands, white eyes and a white X smack in the middle. "Oh great another one." he said.

"And who's the creep?" Marceline asked.

"That's Ragnarok." Tsubaki said. "He's Crona's weapon partner."

"And I am not a creep." Ragnarok said. "You little weakling."

"Who are you calling a weakling!?" Marceline exclaimed angrily.

"Weren't you listening at all?" Maka asked. "She's Kid's little sister."

"She's a reaper!?" Ragnarok asked. "That shrimp?"

"Watch it buddy." Marceline said before she clung onto Kid. "Why don't we take a bath together like we used to when we were little?" The group went silent. "What?" Kid asked the dumbfounded students. "We are siblings."

"Yeah you are but." Maka said. "I've never heard of siblings taking baths together."

"Wait does that mean you did that?" Blackstar asked, making the group gasp. "You idiot!" Marceline yelled while slapping him. "Why would he?"

"Blackstar why would you suggest that?" Tsubaki asked.

"That idiot." Soul said as he facepalmed. Patty laughed while Liz just sweatdropped at Blackstar's stupidity.

"Reaper Chop!"

Everyone except Kid stared at Blackstar, who was bleeding from his head on the floor. "How can you do that?" Maka asked surprised.

"I got it from Daddy." Marceline replied.

"Daddy? Wait you're the Grim Reaper's daughter!?" Ragnarok asked, making everyone facepalm. "Of course." Crona said to him. "You didn't listen?"

Soon, everyone said good-bye to the Reaper siblings and the party was over. It was late and the Thompson sisters were watching TV in the living room, and like what Marceline said, she and Kid were taking a bath together like they used to when they were kids. "So what have you been up to?" Kid asked.

"Well I was living in New York for a while then I went to Vegas." Marceline replied. "They wouldn't allow me in the casinos because I was too young."

"That's true." Kid replied.

"Then last year I decided to come back." Marceline finished. "It was weird when I saw red clouds in the sky."

"That was the Kishin's madness." Kid explained. "A witch and her organization were trying to plunge the world into madness."

"Good thing you stopped him." Marceline replied with a giggle. "Or should I say Maka."

"Either one." Kid said. He hugged Marceline and pulled her close. He didn't care that he was naked; He just missed his sister. Marceline hugged him back while her breasts pressed up against him and traced a finger down his back. "I missed how your body feels." She said. "It has been six years."

"Yeah it has." Kid replied.

"Hey Kid can I ask you something?" Marceline asked. "Can I sleep with you tonight?"

"Come on Marci." Kid said as he ruffled her hair. "You need to learn to sleep by yourself."

"I can but." Marceline replied while looking down. "I still have nightmares of what happened." Kid looked out of the window. "So that's why." He said as he stared into the night, remembering what happened when the two of them were nine years old. He kissed her forehead and rubbed her cheek. "But she's gone now." He reassured. "You can relax."

"Don't die like that ok?" Marceline asked. "Not like him." Kid rubbed her back and said "I won't. I promise."

"Thanks Bro."

Me: Sorry it's been a while but I have a stupid excuse: I haven't gotten a good idea for this story. That's why I haven't updated any of the stories that were last updated like months ago or something. I haven't gotten a good idea for them. If you could please lend me some ideas. Not for this story but for all of my stories. Of course I already have a few storylines running through my head right now. Stay tuned.
