Soul Eater: Season 5 Episode 4
Opening
Maka: A sound soul dwells within a sound mind and a sound body.
Narrator: Welcome to Death Weapon Meister Academy. More commonly known as the DWMA. It stands as a defense against the forces of evil, which would plunge the world into chaos and drag humanity to the very depths of fear and madness.
The demons known as Kishin and their insatiable hunger for destruction. To ensure the Kishin never regain their hold on this world, this academy was founded by the Grim Reaper, Death himself.
Lord Death: So basically, we're an organization that exists to protect and preserve peace. I guess it's not exactly a typical school. Oh well, that isn't important. For now, let's roll up our sleeves and get to work!
End of Opening
Everyone in class talking
Stein: Alright that's all for today
The kids all get up and talk with one another. Maka walks up to Stein with Asuna trailing behind
Maka: Mr. Stein, when is Ms. Marie coming back to DWMA?
Stein: I'm not sure yet Maka but I'll ask
Maka: She's staying in Death City right?!
Stein: I'm not sure about that either but I hope so too
Maka walks away with Asuna, asking about Marie. Stein sadly smiles as the students leave.
Opening Theme Song
Stein is walking home by himself
Stein: In all honesty I don't want Marie to go, but
Flashback
Marie and Stein are having tea in the living room
Marie: So I guess I should be going back to my other job…
Stein is shocked but quietly sips his tea
Stein: If it's what is best
Marie: I haven't talked to Death about it yet, but I'm sure if I'm to go he'd want me there sooner than later
Stein: Well if that'll be the case I can mail over any items you need shipped to your house
Marie: …thanks…
Flashback End
Stein's Head: Marie saved me from the madness
Flashback to when Marie saved Stein from Medusa
Stein: I wouldn't want to hold her back from anything she needs to do but… I don't want her to go
Stein walks into the house and sees all Marie's bags packed. Marie looks up startled
Marie: Oh hey!...Well this is it all. I just have to go consent with Death and I'll be out of Death City
Stein: Oh right…Well I can carry your stuff for you to DWMA
Marie: Really?! Thanks that'd be great!
Stein smiles to himself; Maka, Kid, and everyone are hanging out at the basketball courts. They're all sweating and panting
Soul: 45 to 32 Kid's team wins
Black Star: HAHAHA! Let's play again! This time I'll beat you with my eyes closed!
Tomi: Sounds like fun guys but we got to go to work, see ya
Maka: Oh, where do you guys work?
Tomi: uh…Deathbucks Café
Liz and Patti start to laugh. Asuna and Tomi stare at them confused. Kid rolls his eyes
Kid: For probation they had to work at the same café
Liz: Hey, if you see a little girl with black pigtails tell her the snotty twins say hi and thanks
Asuna and Tomi walk away confused but Liz and Patti just smile at each other warmly. They are in their uniforms serving coffee when Marie walks in and sits at a table. Asuna sees whom it is and is frightened. She pulls Tomi aside
Asuna: That's the girl! That's the girl who found us before…you know
Asuna points to Marie. Tomi sees and looks around for answers
Tomi: She looks like she doesn't suspect anything from us but to make sure why don't I serve her. I don't think remember me because I was in weapon form
Asuna nods and tries to avoid any contact with Marie while Tomi walks up to her
Tomi: What can I get you today Miss
Marie: Oh just a quick cup of coffee to go actually, I'm on my way back home; last night in Death City, sure am going to miss this place
Tomi: Well I'm sorry to hear that ma'am; I'll try to make sure the coffee is the highest of quality for your departure.
Marie looks up at him with a smile
Marie: Oh have we met before? You look familiar…
Tomi: No I don't think so ma'am, I believe I would have remembered such a sweet person. Now I'll go get that coffee for you
Tomi rushes away, Marie has a confused look on her face but doesn't think anything of it. Stein is waiting outside
Stein's Head: I wonder what I should say on the walk over, or if I should say anything at all… Maybe I could make a suggestion for her to stay, or should I insist she go?
A black shadow speed over the sky near the café
Stein: Was that a shadow of…a snake
Tomi walks over to Marie with a coffee to go. She pays him and leaves outside to find Stein looking at the sky
Marie: What's wrong?
Stein: What? Oh I thought I saw something
Marie: Is everything all right?
Stein: Yes, we should get going; you wouldn't want to miss your ride home
Marie: Yea…
Marie sadly looks at the ground and starts to walk ahead, leaving Stein a few strides behind her. At the café Asuna hears a whisper and gasps. Tomi notices and swiftly walks her to the back room
Tomi: Asuna you're shaking, what is it
Asuna: There was a shadow over the café, but not my usual shadow. This one was different…
Tomi: Did it give you a sign?
Asuna: No…But it was in the shape of a snake…
Tomi: Do you think it could be?
Asuna: There's no doubt about it… It's Medusa's soul
Maka, Soul, Raganok, and Crona are walking down the street and run into Marie and Stein
Maka: Ms. Marie! Wow where have you been, we haven't seen you at school?
Maka notices the bags Stein is holding
Maka: Ms. Marie… Why are you going?
Marie gives her a sad smile and hugs them
Marie: Awh thanks for everything guys. I'll miss every one of you
Raganok: I hope your not including me because I'm not gonna miss you!
Marie: Even you Raganok, you look bigger! Have you been eating Kishin souls? Take care of Crona for me
Crona blushes
Raganok: Of course I am, he can't do anything by himself anyways!
Crona: Thank you Ms. Marie… I-I- I'm going to miss you
Marie: Thank you Crona, stay out of trouble. I'm glad to see you've made a home of DWMA. Bye Maka, bye Soul, tell the others I said goodbye
Stein: I'll see you tomorrow in class
Marie and Stein continue to DWMA leaving the kids behind. After they're out of sight Maka sighs
Maka: Asuna would have loved to had met her too…
The kids don't notice the black figure of a snake appear behind Crona and quickly bite his waist and drags him away
Crona: AHHHHH!
Maka and Soul turn around to see Crona being pulled away by a dark shadow
Maka: Crona!
Soul turns into a Death Scythe when an arrow goes through snake shadow, turning it to dust that blows away
Maka, Soul, Raganok, and Crona look up to see Asuna standing on the top of a small building with Tomi as a weapon. Tomi transforms and they jump off the house and walk over to Crona
Asuna: Crona are you hurt?
Crona: N-N-No
Soul: What was that thing? And what'd it want with you?
Crona: M-M-Medusa
Maka: No…
Stein and Marie get to the opening of DWMA and walk in
Marie: I'm going to really miss the kids
Stein: I'm sure they're going to really miss you too
Marie: Awh… Now I have to go back to work, how am I ever gonna get married?!
Stein: I wouldn't worry about that, you're still young and have many opportunities ahead of you. Just be patient and life will surprise you with many gifts you never could have imagined, but they always end up being the things we love the most
Spirit walks up to them
Spirit: Leaving so soon?
Marie: Yes, I have a lot of work to get back to
Spirit: That's too bad, I know there are a lot of people here who will miss you. And Maka loved you as a teacher
Marie: Yes I enjoyed her and many of my other students and will miss them very much
They walk into death's room and see Azusa standing next to Death
Spirit: AHHH! YOU!
Azusa flashes her glasses
Stein: Azusa, what are you doing here?
Azusa: I'm taking Marie home
Marie: Awh! You came for me!
Azusa: Yes, now grab all your things. The car is part just outside
Marie turns to Stein, pauses for a moment and hugs him. Stein is startled but after a moments hesitation, hugs her back
Marie: Thank you… For everything
Stein's Head: No, thank you
She let's go and hugs Spirit and Death and leaves with Azusa
Spirit: Guess she's really gone now…
Stein: Yup, guess I'm going back to being partners with you
Spirit is left with his mouth open
Death: With almost everyone going back to their old jobs, we now have limited amount of eyes that can watch over. Already Azusa, Marie, and Justin, who left pretty quickly after the battle oddly, are all gone. I've sensed a lot of darkness still hither around Death City, make sure that this problem is being solved or else…Death City may be in more trouble than we thought
Next morning. Kilik, Fire and Thunder, Jackie, Kim, Ox Ford, Harvar, Patti, Liz, Kid, Black Star, Crona, Raganok, Tsubaki, Soul, Maka, Asuna, Tomi, and Blair are all at the basketball courts
Kilik: So how do we start?
Ox Ford: Well Death told us that we had to help repair the city so why don't we start by asking villagers what they need help with
Kid: Why don't we split up, we can cover more ground faster that way. Kilik, Fire Thunder, Jackie, Kim, Ox, and Harvar you can take the north. Soul, Maka, Crona, Raganok, Blair, and Tomi can take south. Black Star, Tsubaki, Asuna, Liz, Patti, and I will take the east. And which ever group is done first can do the west.
Ox Ford: Guess where working together Kim!
Kim: In your dreams
Ox Ford: Don't worry; I'll wait for you!
Kim: Don't hold your breathe, common Jackie let's go
The groups disperse. At Maka's group Tomi is painting a wall with Crona. Soul is fixing a roof with Blair standing over him
Blair: I'm glad we get the work together sweetie! Maybe after work we can have a little fun!
Maka kicks Soul across town. At Kilik's group Fire and Thunder are fixing up a window with Jackie. Kilik and Harvar are rebuilding a wall. Kim is painting a wall with Ox Ford
Ox Ford: Kim! You're taking up the entire wall! Why don't you scoot over so we can paint the wall together!
Kim: GO GET YOUR OWN WALL!
At Kid's group Liz and Patti mopping a store. Tsubaki is picking up trash while Black Star is standing on the roof. Asuna is hammering in nails with Kid tying up curtains next to her.
Black Star: Yahoo! I AM BIG! Big men like me don't need to do scrawny men work!
Kid: Asuna, can you come over here and help me for a second
Asuna walks over
Kid: Put your finger directly over the center of these two string while I tie a knot
She does so while Kid repositions her until it's exactly in the center
Kid: I saw you the other day with your fight against Black Star. You're very powerful yet your soul stays the same size, why is that
Asuna: because I'm not using all my soul to defeat an enemy. You would understand that as a death god. If you were to use all your power right now you could travel down the wrong path…but by the look of your face you have no idea of what I'm talking about. Maybe I'm just saying nonsense, but whatever. Was the knot successful?
Kid: Uh-What-Oh yes thank you
Asuna: No problem
Kid is staring deeply into space, trying to understand Asuna's words. They all meet up again at the basketball courts
Kid: With the lack of work needed in the east we were able to get to the west in no time
Jackie: So does that mean the town's fixed?
Tsubaki: Yes! Now Death City is back to normal!
Kid's Head: I wish I were able to agree but I have this feeling…this feeling that…were not close normal, not yet
