Shibusen front entrance:

Shinigami and Medusa stood side by side, the Meisters and weapons chosen for the rescue mission, clad in light cloaks, and sweaters, stood before the Snake Witch and the Great Reaper. "Shibusen students…" Shinigami boomed, "this capture and rescue mission will test your skills as Weapons and Meisters… it will also determine the fate of Shibusen and Death City, along with the fates of our comrades."

Shinigami's short but to the point speech got to everyone. Ox took a step forward, Harvar in his weapons form in hand. He took a small pause, then raised Harvar into the air. "For Shibusen!!!!!!" he yelled, the others got into the moment and mirrored his act as Shinigami clapped his big gloved hands together. Medusa had a small smile on her face, but they all knew that this was going to be a tough mission.

"Suzaku Minter, Kaiser Ward, and Kilik could not take part in this mission. We need a small but elite force, and if there are too many people it will be harder to move about. Medusa has informed us that Arachnophobia has abducted Kim Diehl, Jacqueline O. Lantern Dupre, and Hiti-Ame Doku, so Reilyta will be taking Kilik's place, and since she is able to match Thunder and Fire's Soul wavelength, they will be her temporary weapons," Shinigami explained.

"If needed a standby unit will join the assault… Shibusen Assault force… DEPART!!!!" Shinigami boomed.

Heart of Baba Yaga's castle:

Arachne the spider Witch sat on her Giant web. She looked as if she was meditating, but in fact she was actually going through a phase of power. With every phase her power increases. She seemed have to have something in her lap, but with such dim lights from the candles lining the room, the only thing you could see were dark green eyes…

The only people that were allowed into Arachne's chamber were specially picked Arachnophobia agents, her body guard, Giriko, Mosquito, and anyone of high importance. Out of the darkness Mosquito stood, but he had company, a girl with raven black hair. She wore a white cotton shirt, a skirt with a blue and light blue pattern. Her eyes had an eerie gray/purple color to them; she also wore a pendant that had an equally eerie shadowy purple glow to it.

"Arachne-sama… I have brought the one you've requested…" Mosquito said politely to the spider witch. Arachne gave a small nod and gestured Mosquito out of the chamber, "Ah… Miss Twi…it's nice to meet you." Arachne greeted the girl. The girl, now known as Twi, was very nervous. She was still young, and would only hear rumors about Arachne…but now… she faced the great spider witch face-to-face.

"Arachne-s-sama, it's a great honor to meet the great s-spider w-witch." Twi stuttered out.

"No, child, don't be nervous, are you not a witch yourself?" Arachne questioned.

"Y-yes, but not one as great as you." the girl mumbled.

"Well, I have an assignment for you." Arachne replied in a very monotone voice. Twi gave a nod and walked up to the gigantic web where Arachne sat. "I want you to take care of this tiny one." the spider witch requested as the small figure from her lap rose from its position.

The dark figure leapt from Arachne's lap and fell onto the floor with a small "plop" sound. Twi's eyes enlarged, what stood before her was an extremely cute, plushy-like, creature. "AH, KAWAII!!!" Twi squealed, like a fan-girl. She instantly cradled it into her arms and began to rock it back and forth, "he's so cute, what is this creature?" Twi happily asked the spider witch, forgetting about her fear in the process.

Arachne, though very powerful, would still smile at a child's playful acts, "His name is Hiti-Ame Doku, he is a hybrid, he is part mongoose, part cat…don't let his cute appearance fool you, he is a very fierce creature, his blood is…" Arachne stopped mid-sentence when she noticed that Twi had lost focus on the subject and was to busy with interacting with the mongoose/cat.

"Don't worry Arachne-sama, I will take good care of him." Twi squealed as she placed Hiti onto her head and ran off. Arachne smirked. 'Use him wisely…Twi…the raven witch…' Arachne thought as she went back to her power phases.

South America, Amazon River basin:

The group that arrived in the Amazon rode a boat to a nearby jungle, but were informed by Medusa that they would be walking from the entrance to the jungle. They trekked into the jungle where the vines and plant-life were plentiful, and a dense under-brush made it hard for the team to walk. Medusa took the forward position and used her arrows to cut through the dense plant life.

"You…I thought you were dead." Maka seethed.

"Your soul perception, its something us witches can't do, so I'm relying on you." Medusa replied plainly, Maka was about to charge at the snake witch when Medusa suddenly raised her hand in a "stop" form. "Don't move…Arachne's sensors are behind you." Medusa explained. Maka turned around slightly and saw tiny lines cress-crossing through the vines.

"You probably don't trust me, but I am very serious about this battle, I know it is very difficult for you to take orders from me, but if you don't, you will be caught in Arachne's net and most likely die." Medusa explained, "That's why Shinigami chose us, because we can handle this kind of stuff," Ox replied.

Medusa gave a nod, and began to walk forward, followed closely by the team.

About an hour of trekking through the dense jungle, the team came upon a pond, but the pond water had a brackish color to it and the surrounding plants had strange lines covering them. Thunder and Fire began to sob, then began to cry hard.

"What's wrong?", Maka questioned.

"Thunder and Fire are earth shamans…nature is crying…so they feel the grief that is emitted off of this area." Reilyta explained.

"This is the result of Arachne using her magic, everything around the magic is affected…" Medusa added, "even if Arachne didn't intend to do this…her magic is still destroying…" Liz exclaimed

Suddenly there was a small popping sound, everyone looked toward Patti who had a very big smile on her face.

"Patti did you…?"

"Noo~ooo, it came from the ugly water." Patti replied happily. There were more bubbles, and the water began to churn…Maka could feel it…it wasn't human…suddenly the water exploded revealing a gigantic mutated squid creature.

"What is that thing?" Soul thought aloud, "The magical waste that Arachne is producing is not only affecting the plants, its also affecting the creature that live in and around them." Medusa explained.

The creature gave a roar and lashed out at the team with one of its gigantic tentacles. The team scattered except for Medusa who stood her ground. Maka hid behind a nearby tree, but the creature had noticed and shot a tentacle around the tree in an attempt to grab Maka. Before the tentacle reached Maka, it was sliced by one of Medusa's magical arrows.

Ox wanted to end this now so he charged himself up and sent a shockwave through the ground and into the water. The massive shockwave created a cloud of steam when the Squid was hit. It was most likely dead…or was it?... the creatures shot out again but this time its target was Ox. He had no way of avoiding the attack, the tentacles had covered his front and sides. The only way to avoid the tentacles was to move back, but the tentacles were moving to fast.

Suddenly an arrow-like plate appeared under Ox and sent him backwards just in time for Ox to avoid the attack. It had been one of Medusa's Vectoral plates.

Kidd unleashed a barrage of shots, but none of the shots even pierced the skin of the creature. "We can only cut of its arms, but it can regenerate them, but why aren't any of our attacks affecting the creature's body?" Maka questioned.

Medusa thought for a second. "The squid creature must have a thick layer of magical coating, that's why none of our attacks work… I'll have to disassemble the magic by sending my arrows in, make an opening and let Reilyta-chan deliver the final blow."

Medusa called Reilyta to where they were. "Nake Snake Cobra Cobubra" Medusa chanted and an arrow appeared along the side of Reilyta's arm and over the pot of Thunder. "Reilyta, this is a vectoral boost, it will increase your power 10 fold, I need you to deliver the final blow to this thing, just hit the opening that I'm about to open for you with as much force possible at this point."

Reilyta gave a nod and readied herself.

"Everyone, cover me and Reilyta-chan!" Medusa yelled as she sent her vectoral arrows toward the creature, the team did their best to distract the creature while Medusa disassembled the magic coating, and after a few seconds, a hole appeared in the middle of the spot where Medusa had disassembled the magic coating.

A Vectoral plate appeared under Reilyta and she shot her towards the opening on the creature, "Thunder! Soul Resonance!" Reilyta yelled as the vectoral boost arrow on Reilyta arm enlarged, the pot of thunder began to vibrate, "Thunder Shock Wave!!!" Reilyta delivered the blow. The attack, along with the vectoral boost, sent Reilyta's punch straight through the creature.

A vectoral plate appeared under Reilyta and shot her back towards the team, "Wow, a witch's magic is strong." Reilyta said with amazement. The team watched as the remains of the squid creature fell into the murky water in which it was created. Medusa had already begun walking away, as if nothing had happened…there was no time for interruptions…

After another hour or so of walking through the dense jungle, and they finally reached the entrance to the tunnel that would take them into Baba Yaga's castle. In the entrance stood a person in the Arachnophobia's uniform, but Medusa had informed the team in advance that she had some spies hidden in Arachnophobia.

Medusa started to talk with the person, but the mysterious person had a weird way of talking, all it said was "chi." but Reilyta remembered something like that, after Medusa had finished talking with the person, she informed the group that they would be entering through the tunnel.

After they entered the tunnel, it became very dark, so Medusa created a light source with her arrows…wow…her magic is very versatile, after a few minutes of walking, Reilyta approached the mysterious spy working for Medusa, "Excuse me…" Reilyta asked politely, getting a "chi" in response from the spy, "have we met before…or maybe you know of my weapon, he looks like this…" Reilyta took out a picture of Hiti at the beach with only his swimming trunks and the shine beating down on his tan skin, the spy took it and at one glance began to blush, the spy shock her head from side to side (obviously it's a girl) "Oh…well ok then." Reilyta replied, disappointed, but not noticing the spy slip the picture into her cloak.

Another hour past and a second agent appeared, this one another spy. It immediately reported to Medusa, it had the same speech pattern as the first spy, so she must have been a friend or relative (obviously again, must be a girl by way they talk).

Medusa had obtained some information that would help the children's moral. "Everyone, I've just learned that Kim and Jacqueline are in the castle." she announced. This particular information went straight to Ox who instantly began pumped and confident; Reilyta on the other hand was still worried that Hiti might not be in the castle. The first spy walked up to the second and began to exchange "chi's" and after a while, one approached Reilyta with another picture.

It had shown Hiti in his feral form, being cradled by a girl with blackish hair. 'That's Hiti for you, wherever he goes he attracts some kind of attention' Reilyta thought to herself but at least she now knew that Hiti was in the castle, and that was enough to encourage Reilyta to push forward.

Another hour of walking and Medusa made the team set up camp. They would continue further in the morning…how did she know what the time was? Everyone slept next to each other, even the spy's had a spot next to Reilyta, where at the moment she was trying to translate the Speech pattern of the spies.

Medusa on the other hand slept a few feet away from the group; she was approached by Maka, "Why are you helping Shibusen? Where is Chrona? What is your aim?" Maka questioned, Medusa just sat there. "Don't you look down on me! One day I will kill you." Maka seethed.

"Maka-chan…you have a parent right? I too am a parent, but to Chrona I'm obviously just an object of fear to her…but there is a reason for me helping Shibusen…Chrona…was captured by Arachne." Medusa explained, Maka had been taken completely off guard now, "and…Chrona will be sacrificed for some evil purpose…even I, would not let that happen to my daughter."

After speaking with Medusa, Maka had a new reason for finishing this mission, 'for Chrona!' she thought to herself.

The next morning the group began their walking, and about 2 hours later, Maka and Kidd could feel a large amount of souls. Medusa had informed them that they were already in the castle. A few minutes later, they came to meet another of Medusa's spies, "Hi, I'm Eruka the frog witch" greeted the spy, "Now put these on and we will continue on." Eruka explained as she distributed Arachnophobia agent uniforms.

"Hey, you're one of the people that helped Medusa revive the Kishin." Kidd implied, and Eruka smiled "Well, why don't we become friends instead?" Eruka said as she fanned her face with her hand in a flirty fashion…Kidd just ignored it.

About a minute later, the team members were all dressed in the uniforms, Reilyta had the hardest job, she had to have both the pot of fire and the pot of thunder on her head, it was hard for her to balance, but she managed. But now…came the fun part…
