Nurse Medusa
The Soul of a Shinigami
Chapter 6; the Hell
This is it. I wish I could've done something, but it all happened at once. Now that Soul's gone, I don't know what to do. The arrows are closing in, but it's probably best to start at the beginning of the hell…
Normal P.O.V.
Everyone heard a loud bang and Maka stood up suddenly.
"What the hell Maka?! Calm down!" Her weapon told her.
"A soul just appeared, its right outside the city, and it's strange. It's a disembodied soul, but it's still alive." At that, Ed leapt up and ran out of the apartment. "The soul, it's his brother."
After everybody runs outside like maniacs…
"It should be right here." Maka said, pointing at the ground.
"Start digging." Everyone stared at Ed. "He fell in, start digging!" Everyone was on the ground digging until a blue hand popped out of the piles of sand and grabbed Kid.
"What the-!" He then got shoved aside by Ed who was digging franticly.
"Al, are you there?" He said while pulling on the hand.
"Ed?!" The hand bent down, pushing on the ground. A big blue suit of armor popped out of the ground.
"And just when I thought this day couldn't get any weirder." Soul murmured to himself.
"Are you all right brother?"
"The question is, are you?" Ed said glancing at the suit; it had bended in some places because of the pressure of the sand. "Don't worry, once we're back in the city I'll fix you right up!" But suddenly, a perverted flirt and an insane scientist came bolting out of the city. Let's just say, Stein's students are used to his screw, stitches, etc. Other people…not so much.
"Gah! Who the hell is the creep with the screw in his head?!" Stein ignored Ed's rudeness and came charging on. Spirit transformed mid-run and Stein caught him and prepared to dissect. He got stopped in the middle of his swing by a scythe and a sword, there were also guns aimed at him, but nobody bothered to look at them.
"Maka, what are you doing here?" Spirit questioned.
"I could ask the same thing to you, these boys caused no harm and yet you seek to take them and-"
"Dissect them, yes, that's what I was planning." He then lit a cigarette and twisted his screw a few times. Spirit transformed back and landed on the ground.
"Is that any way to treat you Papa?"
"He's your dad!? I can't take much more of this." Ed said, he looked pale. Al on the other hand was just staring in shock of the things of this mysterious world he and his brother got themselves into.
"I don't consider you my Papa." She turned away, disgusted. His jaw dropped. He was then sitting in the hole that Al was in a minute ago, sulking and being emo and stuff. Stein looked into the eyes of the boy he had just tried to kill and asked,
"Who the hell are you?"
At Medusa's Hideout
"Did you tell them to come?"
"It's all been arranged."
"Excellent, now, go collect human souls to attract the reaper's attention."
"Understood, wolf wolves, wolf wolves!" He morphed into a wolf and ran into a local town to cause mayhem.
"Excellent, it's all going according to my plan." All of the sudden there was a sound outside of the room.
"Is this where they are?"
"Yes, there are clearly people in there, but no names or life spans." Two people walked into the room where Medusa was. One was ginger and looked about twenty, but the other one could pass as being fifteen. She was young looking and blonde.
"Are you Medusa?" The ginger one asked.
"Yes, that's me."
"So you're the one who contacted us. You seem younger than I imagined." She frowned.
"I have temporarily been reduced to this body." She gestured to herself. "But I should be back in my body soon enough. All I need to do is get rid of Death and his stupid school, which is why I need you to and your shinigami. Can you do it?" The witch asked them.
"I don't see why not, I've done far harder things."
"And I can try if Light will!"
"Excellent, I also have one of my contacts attracting Death's attention currently."
In the Death Room
"Also, Lord Death, the mysterious soul that appeared outside of the city not too long ago is not a problem. He's actually quite nice." Spirit said as the reaper took a sip of his tea through his mask (how does he do that?!)
Beep beep!
"Lord Death!" It was Azusa.
"Hm, yes?"
"Several human souls just disappeared near areas of several previous witch sightings. Should I take a team of EAT students to investigate?"
"That would be a good idea-"
"Take those two boys who randomly showed up too." Spirit quickly interrupted.
"Learn your place Death Scythe! You might be Lord Death's death scythe, but that's just because you're an actual scythe!" Then she gave him her devilish glare through the mirror.
"Now now, settle down. Azusa, please never do that near me again. Also, that was rude of Spirit, but I agree. Those kids should go; their souls seem different, stronger than normal. Spirit, contact Stein." Spirit looked up from sulking. "You're going to need your meister, aren't you? This is a strong witch we're dealing with; we would be wise to send a death scythe"
Later in the death room
Spirit, Stein, Maka, Soul, Black*Star, Tsubaki, Kid, Liz, Patty, Ed, and Al were gathered for a mission briefing. After they were briefed on the situation the reaper let out a sigh.
"The traditional killing tool of grim reapers wasn't actually a death scythe." Everyone looked up when he said this, what was he talking about? He pulled out the slip of paper that Maka brought back from Japan. "This is no ordinary paper; this is paper from a death note." They all had just about no freaking idea of what it was.
"What?" They all just about said at once.
"It's a shinigami tool used to kill humans."
"But, how? It's paper." The crazy professor asked.
"The rules state:
The human whose name is written in this notebook shall die
This note shall not take effect unless the writer has person's face in their mind when writing his or her name, therefore people sharing the same name shall not be affected-"
"You can kill someone by writing there name on a piece of paper? Where did we even get this paper? And where's the notebook-?"
"REAPER CHOP!" Black*Star was a blood geyser on the floor. "Now, don't interrupt. Anyway, Maka found someone with this paper in Japan and brought it back to me. As for the notebook, we don't have one. Satisfied, Black*Star?!"
"Does this notebook have something to do with kira?" Maka asked before the reaper could (almost) kill anyone else.
"Yes, kira is definitely possessed by a shinigami and using a death note." That soul, this paper, that man, it all adds up, Maka thought.
"Anyway, I just want you to be prepared for anything that might happen. Knowing Medusa she allied herself with kira. Are you ready?"
"Yes."
A Few Days Later
"Is everyone ready? Remember, we're up against strong witches, an immortal werewolf, a shinigami who will probably show no mercy to anyone, and kira. You might die if you do, so weapons do NOT transform back into human form. Ed, Al, are you sure you don't need anything?"
"Yep, absolutely nothing other than the building itself." Stein lit his cigarette and flung the match away. He smiled.
"Then, what are we waiting for?"
End of chapter 6
Chapter 7 coming soon!
JOKING!
"That soul response, there here."
Crash!
"Then the wall shattered/ exploded sending shrapnel and crap everywhere.
"I see you made some new friends since we last met, Medusa."
"I see you've made some new ones as well, Stein. Although, what's with the blonde one, why is he so short?"
"HEY! YOU'RE THE SHORT ONE, BRAT! WHY ARE YOU SO SHORT?! HU?!"
"My, my, what horrible manners? Perhaps I shall fix that. Vector arrow!" The arrows flew strait at them. Everyone scattered as far away as humanly possible in one jump. Al was drawing a circle on the wall while Ed created a spear using the stone.
"So that's alchemy, but let's see if you can handle this, light serpent!" the serpent flew through the air towards the boys but Ed shoved the spear in its mouth to prevent it from biting down. Medusa wasn't pleased.
"Light! This is why I brought you here! Kill some of them!" He reached in his pocket and his eyes widened in surprise. Where did the paper go?! He looked at Maka as she practically read his thoughts. I've seen her before, in Japan. Did I drop it and she took it?! He thought.
"Misa! Do it! Write!" She pulled a notebook and pen out of her bag and wrote the first name she saw:
Spirit Albarn
The scythe knew what she was doing and suddenly transformed back into human form and held out his arms.
"No! Spirit!" Stein yelled at his weapon.
"It's okay; at least she now can't see your names." He smiled and started to have spasms and fell to his knees.
"PAPA!" Maka screamed.
"Maka…run…" He collapsed, dead.
"That was better than I had expected, now all of my enemies will suffer the same fate." She began laughing and almost was cut in half by a scythe meister, now filled with hatred.
"You will die! I won't let you kill anyone else!" Her scythe blade doubled in size, it was witch hunter.
"Nake, snake, cobra, cobra, portal locate! Magic calculation! Set!" Suddenly vector arrows flew in every direction and a portal appeared underneath Maka.
"Maka!" Soul quickly transformed back under her as she was falling strait towards the portal and shoved her as far away as he could before falling in.
"Soul!" Then the arrows were closing in. They had already reached Ed and Al; Ed got stabbed in the side and was bleeding heavily. I can hear them coming close. She thought. They're almost here.
End of chapter 6
Chapter 7 coming soon
No title this time! (I'm making it a surprise! ;) )
A note from the author;
Sup?
Sorry I haven't uploaded lately, but I'm back! And I apologize for the cliffhanger (not really) that I sort of left in the last authors note (again, not really). Hope you enjoyed, and just like I promised, people died and got mortally wounded, but the battle isn't even over yet! In the next chapter amazing things will happen and people will die. :). Yep, I like making fangirls cry, if you can't tell. :).
Hope you enjoyed the death and stuffs!
