Chapter 8~ The Shocking Meeting
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM OWN SOUL EATER! [I wish.]
However, I DO own Miss Ruby Sagara and Mister Aki Ueno. :3 They are my own OC!
Ruby watched as Soul got excited. He really wanted to see this Maka. She sighed as she looked at Azusa, who had a sympathetic look in her eyes. Ruby realized, that the love these two had for each other, was stronger than any. They were stronger than Lord Death and Spirit combined. She wanted to see these two fight together. They would be amazing to watch, but just as quickly as her thoughts came, they went. They were now focused on who they were going to be paired with. Azusa looked at the two. She eyed Ruby. " You will be able to wield Soul? Am I correct." Soul turned to look at Ruby, who had a smile on her face as she nodded. " Of course!" She yelled in excitement. Azusa smiled and nodded. " You two will be leaving tomorrow. At 12:00 P.M because your pair arrive around then. They will first go to their hotel, then they will be given directions to where to meet you. You two can leave early, to get to your hotel and relax for awhile, or you can get ready for the oncoming fight." Soul looked at her. " Whats our mission?" He asked, eager to go home. Azusa smiled. " You will be killing... Medusa Gorgon."
At first Soul just stood there, then a smile made its way on his face. " We.. Get to kill her?" Azusa nodded. Now, an evil smile found its way on Soul's face. " We.. Can kill her anyway?" Azusa nodded and watched Soul. " But.. You have to get some information out of her. Like, what were her plans with Crona? and the black blood." Soul nodded and looked at the now confused Ruby. " Who's Medusa?" She asked, Soul made a face. " She is someone.. Who deserves to die." Ruby nodded and didnt question anymore. " You are excused." She said, standing up and walking through a door behind her. Soul stood up and eagerly ran to his room. " Soul! Wait! You need to explain this to mee!" A still confused Ruby said, following him. Once they got to the room, Soul sighed at all the questions he was being asked. " You dont ow Crona, so I cant really explain. But tomorrow, we are going to leave early, and relax at our hotel until the others get there." Ruby nodded, deciding not to ask anymore questions. " Im going to go pack now." Soul blurted as Ruby did the same.
Soul was in his room, eagerly packing his stuff. He started talking to himself without knowing it. " Maka. I wish you could go on this mission.. You would just love killing Medusa." He smiled to himself. " Crona.. After this, you will finally be free from her.. Forever.." The smile stayed on his face. " Then I wouldnt have to worry about Medusa making you all crazy.. Though I wish I could be there to see him myself." He soon finished packing, so he walked to the living room, only to find Ruby setting her stuff by the door. " Oh hello Soul." She smiled at him. " He eyed her suspiciously. " Whats on your mind?" Ruby laughed lightly. " Well. I guess we forgot to ask who we were oging to be paired with. Im excited to know." She said, clapping her hands.
Soul just nodded. " Im sure they are good." He said, looking at the time. " We should probably get some sleep." Ruby nodded. " Good idea. Goodnight. I will see you in the morning." Soul nodded and waved her off, going into his own room. He pulled his phone out and texted Maka. This is what it said:
Going on a new mission. Its far from Death City though.. So I wont be able to visit you. Also, I cant text you for awhile.
Soul sighed, then closed his phone and fell asleep.
~At Maka's~
Maka woke up, feeling her phone vibrate. She was tired, so she just sent the text:
Me too.. Maka.
Then fell back asleep.
~At Soul's~
The next morning, Soul checked his phone. He smiled at the shortness of her message. He was kinda surprised that she didnt send a really long message about how he shouldnt send text messages to her late at night. He laughed and quickly got up, hurrying to take a shower, knowing Ruby had taken one and was cooking breakfast. He hopped in the shower, and took about 10 minutes, then he got out and dried off, then he walked out, and seated himself at the table. " Arnt you enthusiastic this morning?" Ruby muttered, keeping her eye on the food. " We are having a simple breakfast this morning. Eggs and bacon. Letting you know before you ask." She said, wearing a proud face.
Soul just stuck his tongue out at her as he waited for his food. After a few minutes, Ruby had plates and food served. It was 7:30 A.M. They went to bed early for nothing. Soul yawned and stretched his arms. " Ah.. So tired.. But after breakfast, lets leave. I wanna see who these people are." Soul smiled evily. He had an evil plan in store for them. Soon after, Ruby and Soul had finished their food and Ruby cleaned everything up. She even tidied the house up, so they wouldnt come back to a messy home. " Ready?" Ruby smiled at Soul. Soul just nodded as they threw their stuff on the back of his bike. They drove off shortly after, it was about 7:45 A.M.
~At Maka's~
Maka woke up, bright and early. It was 4:50 A.M when she woke up. She was a little early, she didnt have to be in the Death Room until 6:00 A.M, but she wanted to head out soon. She starting cooking when Blair walked out. " Hey Blair. Could you go get Aki up?" Blair nodded. " Of course~ Nyaa~" She said, turning human form. Maka heard a couple crashes, and knew what Blair did. The 'squishing-men-with-ginormous-boobs'. Maka laughed lightly when Aki came out with a nosebleed. " Well, we needa get there early." Aki glared at her. " Why?"
" I want to be early, before the others." Aki sighed and nodded, going to take a shower. He noticed Maka cooking, and that she had already taken a shower. " Taking a shower..." Aki managed to say. Maka gave him a thumbs up as he shut the bathroom door. Aki got out and sat at the table, waiting for food. " Foods ready!" She yelled cheerfully. Aki stared at her. " How can you be so damn happy this early in the morning?" Maka just smiled. " Im excited for our mission! If only Soul could have this mission. We would kill Medusa the worst way possible." Maka said, clenching her fist as fire burned in her green eyes. Aki smiled at her enthusiasm.
~At the Death Room 5:30 A.M~
Maka and Aki stood around the mirror, expecting Lord Death to appear, but instead, he walked up behind them. When he tapped Maka's shoulder, she jumped and almost flipped Lord Death. " Its only me Maka-Chan~" He said, assuring her, and at the same time not being flipped. Maka sighed as she stood by Aki. " Scythe Meister Maka Albarn reporting for duty sir!" She yelled with excitement. Aki decided to try the same thing. " Scythe Weapon Aki Ueno reporting for duty sir!" Maka laughed lightly, as did Lord Death, they all heard a chuckle coming from the door. Spirit was walking in. " Death Scythe Spirit Albarn reporting for duty sir." He said, acting cool.
Maka rolled her eyes. " Papa your not cool at all." Her father looked away, trying not to cry. " Makaaa~ MY BABY~!" Spirit yelled, running after Maka. " Reaper Chop!" Lord Death yelled before Maka could 'Maka Chop' him. Aki looked at her confused. " Maka.. How do you get that book to appear out of nowhere?"
" MAKA CHOP!" She yelled, hitting Aki on the head with her ginormous book. " What the hell was that for?" Aki yelled at her. She smiled a sly smile. " Dont question my ways." She said as she put her finger to her lips. Lord Death chuckled. " Anyways~ Back to business." All of a sudden, it was serious. The humorous Lord Death was not stern and serious. The recently crying and dramatic father was now serious. Maka and Aki were both serious as well. " You know what you have to do right?" The Shinigami questioned the pair. Maka nodded. " We are going after Medusa Gorgon, witch, impersonator, and black blood experimentor. We are supposed to get as much information out of her as we can, then kill her. Which means get her under tight security, and interrogate her about her plans with black blood. She has already taken Crona from us once. It wont happen again." She said, death following every word. Aki nodded in acknowledgement to what she was saying. " Agreed." The Shinigami smiled and nodded. " You are free to leave. Spirit, give these two a ride." He nodded, grabbing his keys.
~Leaving~
It was about 6:45 A.M when they got everything packed and ready to go. It took till 7:00 A.M for Maka to explain everything to Blair about what she would be doing, Blair wrote eveyrthing down and nodded. " Nyaa~ Ill miss you~" She purred, pulling Maka into a bone and boob crushing hug. Maka slowly pushed away. " Lets go Papa." Spirit nodded and began the vehicle. Maka took the seat next to Aki in the back this time. She sighed as she waited for them to arrive. It was 8:00 A.M when they officially arrived at their hotel. Maka found the room number and headed up. " Seems like the others havnt arrived yet." Maka muttered happily. She wanted to arrive first, as always. She looked at the door, hoping for names. " Pair 643? What the hells this?" She looked at her father questionably. Her father smiled nervously. " Its pair numbers.. Yours is.. 644.." Maka eyed him suspiciously. " What are you hidi-" Her father cut her off by pushing her into her room. " I will stand out here until your done." He said, motioning for the two to enter the room. They did, to his advantage.
Spirit stood in front of the door, expecting Soul to come up any second now. It had been about 15 mintues. He eyed Soul coming up, and told Maka and Aki to rest, as they did. " Look at you. Death scythe and all. Wheres your partner?" He asked, looking around. " Hey.. Maka's dad..." Spirit smiled as he noticed ruby red hair flutter. " Is that her?" He asked, pointing to the girl clinging onto him. " Come on. Your not shy." Spirit listened in, he could hear her whisper, " B-But its Death Scythe!" Spirit smiled as Soul pushed the girl in front of him. " H-Hello! I am Ruby Sagara!" She bowed quickly and a blush was stuck on her face. Soul smiled, then went serious. " Hows Maka?" He asked, Spirit smiled and gave him a thumbs up. " Shes good."
" Papa? What are you doing?" Spirit stiffened. He hoped to keep them apart till he left. Soul also stiffened. His gaze went up to Spirit. " Is.. She in there?" He asked, his heated gaze torturing Spirit. Spirit shook his head. " N-No not at all.." Soul sighed, heading to his room, when he heard the distint voice. " Papa! Open NOW!" Soul stopped, turned around and shoved Spirit out of the way. " No! Not yet!" Spirit yelled, running down the stairs. Soul almost broke the door down, he saw her.
Ash blonde hair, pulled up in pigtails, recently redone. Olive green orbs, shining. Her pale skin looked soft. Soul stood for a moment, taking it all in. " SOUL!" Maka screeched, hurting his ears. Tears formed and threatened to fall. Her eyelashes were brimmed with tears. " Maka.." Soul walked towards her, wanting to touch and hold her forever. Maka stood, stiff, not believing this. " B-But.. We... We were supposed to be far apart.." Maka took a step back as Soul took another step forward. Soul's eyes were filled with sorrow and regret as he grabbed Maka, hugging her tightly.
At first, Maka just stood there, not knowing what to do. Then, she slowly wrapped her arms around Soul. The two embraced each other, the space between their lips decreasing. Aki walked out of the kitchen, wondering what the noise was. He stopped, and dropped the apple he grabbed when he saw the two. " Uh. Maka? Hello?" Aki said, breaking the moment. Maka and Soul both erupted in a deep red and quickly pulled apart. Aki noticed the albino haired man. " You must be Soul 'Eater' Evans.." Aki muttered, stretching his hand out. " Im Aki Ueno, Maka's weapon." He had a big grin on his face, but instead of a handshake, he got a punch in the face.
" What the hell was that for?" Aki yelled, clutching his cheek. Ruby walked in the room shyly, towards Maka. " Umm.." Maka turned quickly as she stared at the ruby haired girl. " I-I am Ruby Sagara... Soul's meister.. I deeply apologize for what I said on the phone then.." She said, remembering the scene clearly. Maka took a small step back, then smiled. " Oh its okay. Soul cleared it up, I know you didnt mean any harm from it." Maka smiled, and so did Ruby. " So I have heard stories about you and Soul! I want to see you fight together! If.. You can.." She mumbled. Soul and Maka looked each other in the eyes, the fire flickered in both.
" Of course we still can!" They yelled in unison. Aki slowly got up off the floor. " So what the hell you guys doing here anyways?" Aki yelled, frustrated. He then saw Ruby, his heart pounded. He instantly fell for her. Ruby smiled at him. " Im Ruby Sagara!" She outstretched her hand. Aki slowly reached out and shook hers. " I-Im Aki Ueno..." He mumbled timidly. Ruby laughed aloud. The fire burned in Soul's eyes, except the fire was energy, not anger. " We are here to kill Medusa!" Soul exclaimed. Maka smiled. " Us too. So guys.. Mind switching? I use Soul, you use each other?" Aki thought for a moment, and nodded. It would be great to be held by nodded in agreement. " Why not?" The four headed out, towards Medusa's home.
