Four! Enjoy!


"Where is Maka?" Kid growled, sighing as he, Soul, Liz, Patty, Tsubaki and Black Star waited for Maka to arrive.

"She went on a hike with Blair and Mica two days ago." Soul said. "It might be taking awhile for them to be getting back."

Kid huffed and said, "Come on, Black Star, let's get this over with and perhaps our other team member will be back tomorrow."

Black Star nodded and held his hand out for Tsubaki. She clasped his hand and changed into a double-edged sword. Hefting her, Black Star sneered at Kid as Liz and Patty changed into the pistols. As Kid took fire with tranquilizer darts, Black Star stealthily maneuvered around them. He had gotten better with his stealth training since the Kishin's madness had been defeated. Maka and Soul had been helping him out with it and he was actually improving.

Spinning Tsubaki expertly, Black Star charged and swung at Kid, who dodged out of the way just in time. Black Star reversed and tried to make a comeback attack, but Kid elbowed him in the side before he could. Black Star went one way and Tsubaki went the other. As Kid shot at the blue-haired assassin, Black Star flipped over to Tsubaki and deflected the darts coming at him.

Slashing at Kid once more, Black Star succeeded in cutting some of the hair on one side of Kid's face and grinned, knowing this would set Kid off.

"No!" Kid screamed, looking at his hair. "My hair! It isn't symmetrical! What have you done?"

Black Star gave him a smirk and said, "I just won this fight."

Rushing forward, Black Star used his speed attack and slashed Liz and Patty out of Kid's hands, causing the Shinigami son to fall to his knees. Kid smiled as he stood and shook Black Star's hand. Just as Black Star was about to let go, Kid's hand tightened and he flipped him.

"Hand-to-hand combat now, Black Star." He called, laughing as Black Star looked up from his position on the ground.

"I'll get you for that, Kid!" Black Star shouted, charging Kid head on and ramming his fist into Kid's chest.

Kid went flying and held up a hand. "I guess I deserved that." He muttered. "Alright, you win, Black Star. Good job!"

"I did it, of course the job is good."

"Yes, well, I guess practice is over since the sun's going down and there's no sign of-."

"Hey guys!" Everyone turned as the three girls transcended their human forms and six mouths dropped to the ground. Maka ran up to them and smiled, clasping her hands in front of her.

"No way!" Soul gasped.

"Sorry, I'm late. I had to go shopping for a bit of new clothing."

"Obviously!" Soul breathed, staring at Maka's new attire.

She had on a deep purple tank top that hugged her blooming chest like a second skin and the skirt she wore was even shorter than her previous one, showing a massive amount of thigh. On her feet was a pair of knee high combat boots that sort of resembled her old shoes. Her hair curled slightly at the end as she smiled at them all from beneath purple eyeshadow. She still wore the black cape and gloves, but they only added to the sexy outfit.

"So, uh, am I too late to practice?" Maka asked slowly, not sure why everyone was still staring at her.

"What?" Black Star asked, blinking a few times. "Oh, yeah. You can fight me since I won the fight against Kid."

Maka nodded and held a gloved hand out to Soul. He grasped it firmly and changed into a Scythe. Maka spun him a few times for effect before she and Black Star rushed each other. The sword and the Scythe clashed each other and Maka pushed against Black Star's strength. She had gotten more muscular so she wasn't as weak as everyone saw her.

Pushing against Tsubaki's sword form, Maka did a small spin and caused Black Star to go flying. He bounced a few feet away and got to his feet. He growled and charged her, using his quick attack. Maka smiled and closed her eyes, feeling for him before striking, hitting Soul's handle against Black Star's chest and causing him to slide a few feet away.

"You're good," he admitted. "But I'm better!" With that, he shouted, "Tsubaki, enchanted sword mode!"

Tsubaki looked at him in confusion. "But it's just a sparring match."

"Just do it, Tsubaki!" Black Star ordered and Tsubaki sighed, going into enchanted sword mode.

Maka grinned as Black Star charged her and shouted, "Soul, Witch Hunter!" Soul nodded and went into Witch Hunter.

The two weapons clashed together and Maka smiled at Black Star. Black Star pulled the sword back and made to slash at Maka's outfit, but was stopped by the Scythe just before the sword made contact with the skin. Pushing against Black Star's sword, Maka's eyes burned in determination as she used all of her strength to throw Black Star off. Losing grip of Tsubaki, Black Star went flying into the bench where Liz Patty and Kid were sitting. Tsubaki changed back and ran over to make sure he was ok.

"Wow," he muttered. "She's sexy and she has some muscle. Better watch out Soul, someone might steal her."

Soul grit his teeth and shrugged as he transcended to his human form. "Whatever."

"Please, Black Star," Maka smirked. "No one's going to take me from Soul. He's my partner."

"I don't know Maka," Black Star said, his eyes traveling her form. "I wouldn't mind if you joined me. Together, you, me and Tsubaki would be unbeatable."

"I'm a weapon meister," Maka told him through gritted teeth. "Not a real weapon. I'm staying with Soul." She stormed away as the six friends watched her go.

"Touchy." Black Star scowled.

"She is my partner." Soul told him.

"Oh come on, you know you love her." Liz said in a bored tone.

"No, we keep it strictly friendship." Soul retorted.

"Come on, you know you love her." Patty teased. "You love her, you love her, you love her, you love her…"

"Shut up, Patty." Soul growled.

"You love her, you love her, you love her…"

Soul grasped his head and shouted, "Of course I love her, you idiot!"

Patty quieted as Soul sighed. "She has a nice body, she's my best friend and she's my partner. How can I tell her I love her?"

"We'll help you out." Kid said.

"Yeah, it'll be a piece of cake." Black Star said, clapping him on the back. Soul gave them a sharp-toothed smile as he began walking back to Maka's house.
