Hey guys. Sorry for the late update.
Recently, my uncle has died. I had to attend his funeral. And during this period of silence, I couldn't manage to let the words out.
Sorry.
Disclaimer: I don't own Soul eater. I borrowed it
A week had passed since the incident of the ruined dinner party. Soul and his group took Bloody's advice, and decided to not go anywhere near Urban Legendz.
The halls were still buzzing from the excitement of having the world's most popular band in the DWMA. The delighted screams of fangirls and boys could be heard through out the academy, which annoyed Soul to no end.
"GODDAMMIT!" Soul screamed, stomping on the academy's front steps. That particular day was sweltering, which only pissed him of more.
"I don't understand why those snotty brats are getting so much attention from all the students! They aren't even all that great, with their stupid perfect faces and killer songs!" Soul shouted, waving his arms in the air.
"YEA! Everyone should be paying attention to me their god, the one and only Black*Star! Soul, we needed to show those uppity rich kids that they're in out city now!" Black*Star screamed, jumping down from his perch on one of the academy's spires. Kid walked up beside them, staring off into death city.
"I would agree with you two blabbering idiots, but we can't," Kid said, shaking his head. "That group is a little to influential and powerful to take down. Of course we could engage them in battle, but we don't know how they fight. And something tells me that they have us all figured out. Not only that, but that dreadful fan club of theirs would tar us apart." They all shuddered at the thought.
"Now now boys, it's best to leave them alone. They asked us not to get involved with them, and I think it would be in everyone's best interest if we didn't try to challenge them." Tsubaki said, lightly scolding the boys for trying to get back at the band.
But there really was no talking to Soul and Black*Star. They were all fired up, and ready to take revenge on the members of Urban Legendz.
"Just you wait you dirty rotten spoiled rock stars! We're gonna take you down one way or another!" Soul yelled, facing the academy.
"Oh, really now?" a voice called out. Soul stared, looking straight in to the face of Slender.
"AHH!" Soul and Black*Star yelled surprised at the sudden arrival of the guitarist.
"You know, you guys are really annoying, standing out here and shouting all day. And yelling that you guys challenge us and want to take us down? Ha, yea right. We've don this once before gentlemen, and you, as I recall, lost." Slender said with a yawn.
"Oh yea?! So you think that you're such a big tough guy, huh? I guess you're challenging us?" Black*Star said, trying to provoke the young weapon.
NOT even the slightest bit of emotion passed over his face. He merely stretched his arms and turned around to walk back inside the academy.
"One more thing," Slender said, stopping in his tracks, slightly turned to the four behind him, "Just as fair warning, don't go challenging us again. We have very little patience left." The four gasped as they caught sight of his stare, which was narrowed and deadly, almost exactly like a snake's. Slender simply kept walking, stretching his arms as he went and complaining of the heat.
"Where did you run off to?" Bloody said, nodding her head in acknowledgment at the guitarist. She knew he didn't like to move around that much, so it was a surprise o her that he decided to go on a stroll.
Slender grinned, showing his canines. "Just had to deliver a message. Don't worry about it. So, are we setting up now?" Slender asked, looking at the stage that had been set up in the courtyard.
Bloody nodded, a little exasperated that he wouldn't tell her where her had gone. "Yes, so get in to position and tune your instrument. It's been a while since we played, so this is just to make sure that we haven't fallen behind where our levels of mastery should be at. "
"So that's why there is a stage and lights?" Slender asked, raising an eyebrow. Bloody grinned.
"And maybe to give the people what they want. Hey, when your at the top, you still gotta work hard to stay at the top." Slender nodded, and began to tune his instrument along with the other band members.
"Oi, Nagisa! Where ya been mate? Bloody's been wondering where you had gone." Vamp said, staring at the navy haired teen. Slender shrugged, not wanting to divulge the details of where he had gone.
"So, you wanna be like that ay? I won't letcha get away that easily!" Vamp said, tackling Slender and giving him a monster noogie. The twins squealed and screamed, "DOG PILE!". Soon all of the bandmates were rolling on the ground, laughing and tackling each other.
"EHEM!" a commanding voice said above them. Everyone stopped what they were doing, and stared up at their ash blonde leader. She was tapping her foot, her green eyes hardened and looked like real emeralds. Everyone gulped, and hastily began to pick themselves up from the floor.
"Uh, Bloody! Well...uh,... you see here.." Vamp started, visible swallowing. He was shaking, obviously terrified of the singer. She stared down coldly, an eyebrow slightly raised.
"You two..." Bloody started, closing her eyes and rubbing her temples.
"NAGISA, KAI! How could you two start a huge wrestling match before we start the show, which could possibly injure the twins, and..." Bloody said, staring at them and pointing, "how could you start a wrestling match without ME!"
Bloody then pounced on all of them, crushing them in a big hug. Everyone laughed, happy that their leader was having fun (and the fact that they weren't in for a major ass-whooping).
"But seriously guys, we're on in about forty five seconds so I suggest that we get moving."
Everyone yelped and leapt to their feet, rushing to finish any preparing that was necessary.
"Does anyone know where my pick is?"
"Hey, Nagisa, can you check and see if my bass is tuned properly?"
"Ugh, Kokurri! Fix your ears goddammit!"
"Damn, I'm not even hooked up to an amp!"
"Where's my microphone?!"
"CURTAIN UP IN TWENTY SECONDS!"
"SHIT!" everyone said at once.
"Oh god, can someone please fix the lighting?"
"FUCK! My finger!"
"WHERE THE HELL IS THAT DAMN MICROPHONE?!"
"UGH! My hair is caught in your chain necklace Red!"
"Fuck get it untangled."
"CURTAIN UP IN TEN SECONDS!"
"DOUBLE SHIT!"
"Found my microphone!"
"Fuck yea! My hair is untangled!"
"I've got an amp!"
"FIVE SECONDS TO CURTAIN!"
"OK! Is everyone ready?" Bloody called, taking her place up in the front.
"Ready." Slender said, plugging in his guitar.
"Ready as a kangaroo is to box!" Vamp said, testing his keyboard real quick.
"Ready!" Kokurri giggled, twirling with her bass.
"My jeans are a little to tight, but I'm ready." Red called from the back, twirling his drumsticks.
Bloody grinned, which made her look intoxicating, dangerous, and perfect.
"Then let's rock this academy so hard the roof will fall in."
"Oo, vandalism, I like it!" Kokurri yelled, jumping up and down.
With that, the curtain rose, and with a shout, Bloody screamed..
"LET"S GO!"
"LET'S GO!" the crowd heard bloody yell as the curtain rose. Soul and his crew were there, and, despite their dislike for the group, they had to admit they wrote killer songs.
"This song is our first single, Black Paper Moon."
I'm falling down into my shadow
Grasping onto every breath
As I await the Deadly night
Maka stared at the crowd with half-lidded eyes and a slow easy grin. She flipped her hair back and twirled the microphone's cord around her fingers.
So scary, but you can't give into this
Fear of pumpkin carraiges
'Cause all the witches see it in your eyes
See you in your dreams, yeah, baby
Your nightmares too, that's where I'll find you
With that last line, she pointed to the crowd, giving them a wink.
Fairy blue
It is only for you
That I would crush the stars
And put them on display
Black Paper Moon
If you really put your faith in me
When you're lost, here I am
"forever" with your soul
Waiting here above you patiently,
Just like the shining moon
With this verse, Maka stared straight at Soul and his group, with a pained look. Soul was startled, confused by her sudden attention. He focused on her for the rest of the performance.
A symbol rises to the surface
Of the crimson sweetness that I had submerged it deep within
Your destiny isn't so immutable
Anything that you can dream
Can also be the fate that you will have
Don't try to use deceit on me
I will not break, I won't surrender
Maka screamed to the heavens, her eyes steeled over with determination. She then dropped her head down, ad snapped right back up. She ran over to Slender, and leaned on his back.
Fairy blue
You are my everything
The reason I go on
In this captivity,
Eternally
If you raise your voice and call for me
I will find you, my dear
Wherever you may be
And I will be sure to set you free from this ensnaring curse
She looked at the twins with that verse, pouring her heart into every word.
There are times when noone believes in me and
There are times where I feel like I'm degraded
But even in those times your words always echo within
My heart
This is my promise
Fairy blue
It is only for you that I would smash the stars
And use them as a sign
To guide you
And any time that you're lost or afraid, or you can't see your dreams,
I want you to look up
And Fairy blue
You are my everything
The reason that I live
In sweet captivity so faithfully
And I swear you'll never be alone
When you're lost, here I am
Forever with your soul
We can make it through most anything, if you can just believe
Maka sang, grabbing the microphone stand and staring straight into the heart of the audience. The performance was electric. Everything the musicians had was left on the stage. The fans couldn't quite grasp what had happened, but the could feel so many emotions being thrown at them. Unimaginable Pain. Pitch black Despair. Gritty Determination. Betrayal. But most of all, hope. Hope that someone with forgive, that someone will notice. That someone will know how much these people cared for them. And the audience was getting high off the effect.
Soul stared at the stage, happy and resentful at the same time. Why couldn't he be able to express his emotions like that?
But Soul couldn't shake the feeling that the performance was a little forced. Like the emotions were forced out of the band. Shrugging, he pushed the thought away, running to catch up with his friends.
Maka, I hope that you'll come home some day. I hold on to these friends and try to keep everything normal so we can all be happy again.
I miss you. God, I miss you so much it's hurting me.
Please come home soon. I'll wait for you forever.
But please, for my sake, hurry.
Backstage, everyone was breathless from the performance.
"Guys, did you feel that? That...that was insane!" Bloody said, laughing off her exhaustion.
"Y-Yea...definitely something." Slender said, collapsing on a couch in the middle of the courtyard. It was a miracle that they weren't swarmed by fans by now.
Everyone sighed, content with the show that they had just given, albeit the exhaustion was terrible. They left a lot of themselves up there on stage, which didn't really make sense. But nonetheless, they were happy that the fans were excited.
"You guys really seem worse for wear. Did the impromptu concert really take that much out of ya?" Fey said, staring at the half conscious musicians. Succubus would have been able to energize them with a home made remedy, but she was sick at home.
"We...We're g-good, I think. Man, why are we so exhausted?!" Red yelled, using his last bit of energy to cry out into the heavens. A second later, he was fast asleep, snoring like a pig.
"Huh? Hey, what happened to my brother?" Kokurri asked sluggishly. Her eyes were drooping closed, and it took all her effort to stay awake.
"This...doesn't...make any..sens..." Vamp started, falling asleep in the middle of his sentence. Kokurri followed suit, sprawling over her brother's chest.
"B-Bloody...what, what...the hell, is...going on?" Slender called, trying to stay awake.
"I-I know...why...are we...all...so..slee...", and with that, Bloody drifted off, her head tilting backwards.
Slender, in his last few moments of consciousness, stared at Fey, trying to question why she wasn't helping. However, Slender watched "Fey" grin, and pull off a wig. Long hair fell from the person's head, and this person grinned at them.
"You...fucking...bastards..." Slender managed to get out, before collapsing into a very deep sleep.
"Goodnight darling..." the girl said, staring lovingly at Slender.
The young teen looked straight up into the sky and said, "We have them. Send the chopper here."
She then tied her hair up in a ponytail, and opened her phone. She sent a text, and grinned at their reply.
"This is gonna be fun."
Oh no! They got kidnapped!
Sorry the chapter is kinda short, but the next chapter will be all thrills and no break.
Review I guess. It would make me feel better.
bye.
