Hey hey! So, I posted chapter 5, and the second I get home from school, I see that two, TWO, people have already reviewed! That is so freaking epic! Oh, and I forgot to mention last chapter, but OMG! OVER 20 REVIEWS! I AM IN HEAVEN RIGHT NOW! You people are the BEST! This chapter is for all of you who have reviewed, and for TheSecretDoujinshi99 for wondering if Sara will kick Black Star's butt or not. Well, you'll see~
Also, THANK YOU random creeper for reviewing every chapter! Even though I threatened you on Facebook for, like, two minutes!
ALSO! For those of you who like listening to music while reading, I was listening to "Ride With Me" by Decyfer Down, so you might wanna look it up on Youtube and listen to the fight scene. IT SHALL BE MORE EPIC IF YOU DO! Just letting' ya know! You don't have to though, if you don't want to. …But you should…now…go look it up…we'll wait. *sits and waits….before being hit over head with stick by Joelle, again* Oh well, guess you don't have to now…and HOLY FISHSTICKS SHAPED LIKE KISAME! This author's note is taking WAAAAAY too long…DISCLAIMER TIME!

Chapter Six: Battle of the Souls!
Oh. My. Excalibur. And again, no, not really Excalibur.
Black Star.
He had this crazed look in his eyes, and he seemed all too happy at the idea of beating the crap out of me.
Why was I agreeing to this again? Oh yeah, cause of all the cool stuff I would be able to do…and because Stein said so…and he scared me…kind of…sort of…though he was still cool…and kinda smexy, in a fangirl kind of way.
Back to Black Star.
(EPIC MUSIC STARTS!)
He was just staring at me, which was severely creeping me out, and he was…smiling…in a 'madness' kind of way.
"Here I come, Sara." he whispered, still grinning.
I smirked, remembering my resolve to 'take it to the next level'.
He was going DOWN!
"BRING IT ON!" I yelled, rushing forward.
He ducked, only to bring in an upper-cut, one packed with his soul wavelength. Dodging, I sent him a swift kick while I flipped backwards, landing on one of the classroom desks.
We lunged forward at the same time, only he used his Shadow Star, and whooshed by even faster. Only unluckily for him, I was used to speeds so much faster, thanks to Joelle, who fought with me constantly, for fun. She was the definition of speed. Try and race her, and you'll be one inch into the race before she's finished, lapped you twice, and now casually eating her lunch as she walks beside you. Only her version of walk is my version of sprint, so Black Star was nothing, compared to her.
I dodged, then rammed him right in the gut with a 'Soul Punch'.
He didn't know what hit him.
'Whoosh!' was the sound he made, as he flew backwards, only a blur. He crashed into to chalk board behind him, making it crack hugely. I smirked.
(END EPIC BATTLE MUSIC!)
"Hehehe, taken down already, and by little ol' me?" I asked, trying to anger him. I wasn't finished yet.
He struggled to stand, clutching his stomach, looking like he was trying not to spew it's contents all over the ground.
He was still smiling though, cocky as ever. He had guts, gotta give him that.
"Hehe, no way am I gonna be beaten like that…not…me…" he said, wheezing and gasping for breathe. Did I really hit him that hard?
Then I took a look at his soul, which I just realized I could do, and noticed it was pulsing strangely…
Dear Shinigami-sama, it did not look good…
It wasn't pulsing in a normal, rhythmic pattern like they were supposed to. No, it was in a dysfunctional, erratic beat. Like a heart that was having a heart attack.
"Black Star! Holy crap!" I yelled, running up to him, just as he collapsed, completely unconscious.
Instantly, everyone was at his side with me, concerned.
Stein, always the calm one, immediately called for Mira and Sid to take Black Star to the infirmary, once Stein had checked him over first. Stein had concluded that Black Star would be just fine, and the only thing that happened was my 'Soul Punch' had messed with his own soul wavelength, and it freaked his whole system out, so he passed out.
Breathing a sigh of relief, I looked up at him, questioning what to do next. Tsubaki had gone with Black Star, so she wouldn't be with us for anymore training, but I had no idea if that would stop Stein's lesson or not.
"No, we'll continue. But this time, you won't attack. You'll be on defensive only. We don't want a repeat of Black Star.." trailed off Stein, who looked at me with teasing eyes and a smirk.
I immediately went to my guilt corner, and started fertilizing mushrooms with my depression, causing everyone to sweat drop.
"A-ano, Sara, no one thinks bad of you, because we know it was just an accident. We should probably get back to training, so that we can visit Black Star soon!" encouraged Maka, as she held her hand out for me to take.
Looking up at her, I noticed how open and friendly she was with me, and it reminded me of the episode where she saves Chrona and becomes his friend…aw, Chrona's so cute! He's just so freaking KAWAII! I was also Chrona's semi-fan girl, but I was TOTALLY and COMPLETELY in love with Kid, which so did not need to be said now…moving on…wait…
Where was Chrona anyway?
Oh well, I'll get back to that after the lesson, since I also wanted to visit Black Star quickly.
Smiling, I reached up to take her hand, letting her pull me up. I kept smiling, as we headed back to the group to resume training.
"Alright, now that that's taken care of, let's get back to the lesson. Maka, Sara, I want you two in the center." said Stein, and once we were standing where we were supposed to be, he continued. "Now, I want you, Maka, to charge at Sara, and swipe at her with Soul. Sara, I want you to compress your soul energy together into a tangible shield. Make sure your soul energy is as compacted as possible, or else the blow might sting a bit."
"…You're enjoying this, aren't you?" I asked, even though it was obvious to everyone he was. All he did was smirk, before going back to his bored expression, like normal.
Soul transformed, did a cool shiny flip thing, and landed in Maka's hand, where she then twirled him around, doing super cool ninja moves. Show-off…
"Ready?" asked Maka.
"Um, just a sec…let me try and focus on my soul's wavelength, and when I've got it, I'll give you the go-ahead, okay?" I answered, nervous.
She just nodded, then waited as I slowly closed my eyes, visualizing my soul. Everybody else waited patiently, watching with interest, as the air around me started to swirl. My hair was twirling around, rising higher and higher with each gust of wind. Only it wasn't really wind. It was my soul wavelength, which was pulsing stronger and stronger as I focused more and more.
Then, my soul appeared, shocking everyone. And yes, everyone could see it, even the ones who couldn't normally see a person's soul. And they gasped.
My soul was HUGE. So big, in fact, that it took up most of the classroom. But that wasn't the only thing they were gasping about. No, it was what my soul looked like.
It was completely white, except for the black chains that wrapped around it, which little black skulls hung from. The chains were wrapped, much to Kid's enjoyment, completely symmetrically around my soul. But another thing about my soul, was that it had two giant horns protruding from the top, a giant, skull-like face, and the creepiest grin known to man. My soul looked freaking bad-butt, and I knew it.
I would have showed off too, except I was concentrating so hard. I molded my soul into pure, white energy, then made it wrap around me protectively. Like it had a mind of it's own, it wrapped around me so firmly, yet in a way that allowed me to move freely. It also, which I found pretty awesome, formed these two big horns, made out of soul energy, on top of my head, like the ones my soul had.
I was in heaven! This was so epically cool! Okay, I'll squeal in excitement later, for now I had a scythe to block!
Turning my head to Maka, I nodded, making my soul energy, which now looked like a ghostly mist, flow around me, giving me a surreal and other-worldly look.
Maka, after getting over her shock, smiled determinedly at me, and nodded also.
Then she charged.
Here we go!
