Yes, I am back. Surprise! I'm publishing earlier than the last one. BE PROUD DAMMIT! Whelp, I have no idea how this chapter is gonna go so... PLZ JOSH DUN JUDGE! Random Q: do you like lava lamps?

Maka's POV

Don't get me wrong, I want that witch soul. I'm sure we all do, but... Given the situation, I'm not sure if finding her is the best way to go. Honestly, it would be best if none of us were to look for her, but a witch doesn't just appear like that every day. That is why we're going to claim that soul.

"Where do I find her? I know she's working with weird black-blood Soul, but I need a location." I needed to know. This opportunity is rare. If we claim the soul in time, we could defeat the black blood in time. Unfortunately, a whole bunch of other students would be after the witch, not to mention those trying to stop the academy from being completely obliterated.

"She is apparently in somewhere I can't remember the name of." Blaire replied. Helpful. Thanks. "Well, I'm going to fish shop guy. Bye!" With that, she transformed into a cat and leapt from the window. That makes two of us who can't use doors.

Soul's POV

"So? What now?" I asked.

"Well, there isn't much we can do. I guess we should wait until some more news on the fire witch's location comes up."

"Wait? What good is that supposed to do?"

"It won't be long. Just wait."

~timeskip brought to you by that name new shade of blue. Ya know which one I mean. Like,my hat really nice one that is really beautiful? Yeah. That one. It's really nice, right? Yeah! My fave colour!~

Everyone's been on edge lately. News spreads fast: like wildfire. There isn't a single soul who hasn't heard of the plans to destroy us. Who knew that blood could be that intimidatingly? Speaking of blood, Crona still hasn't returned. He's been away on a mission with Marie for a while. I can only hope that they're all ok. I even hope that bastard Ragnarok isn't injured too badly.

"Hey, guys! I just got a great idea!" Blackstar came parading into the room with Tsubaki closely at his heels.

"What is it?" Kid asked. Him, his weapons and Maka drew closer to Blackstar to hear him out. The rest of the DWMA appeared not to care. "Let's have a strategy meeting on how to take down weird Soul blood guy and the water witch!"

"Wasn't she a fire wi-"

"Kid, let's have it at your house!" The fact that he just wanted to throw a party couldn't have been more obvious.

"I hey my house? It's your idea, so it should be at your place." Kid answered.

"If you don't make it at your house," Blackstar rummaged around in his pockets momentarily before taking out a picture of Kid wearing an asymmetrical shirt, "I'll show this to everyone!"

Of course, the reaper looked terrified.

"If you burn it, then yes. We can have the "strategy meeting" at mine."

So, it was settled.

Liz's POV

"Hey, Patty? How do I look?" I gave a twirl.

"Like a person!"

"That's not what I meant..."

I was wearing a semi-casual skirt and a random new shirt. I was just trying it out. Patty was somehow wearing a giraffe. She was wearing what looked like a "costume" apart from the fact that it was full sized and it felt liked giraffe skin. I have no idea when, where or how she got it, but she did. Kid, of course was wearing a perfectly symmetrical shirt with perfectly symmetrical trousers.

"Ready, Sis?" Patty murmured, a grin spreading across her face. (Of course the grin was symmetrical. Kid would've flipped out if it had been any other way.)

"Ready."

Mission: start!

Tsubaki's POV

When we arrived, it seemed that Soul and Maka were the only ones not in on it. Even Blackstar managed to stay quiet about it! I understand why they're doing this. With all the overhanging shadows of doom looming over us, a little light-hearted fun is what this world needs. It's kinda funny. Liz, Patty and I had been planning this for a while. We only invited Kid in because we needed to use the mansion and Blackstar joined as he was eavesdropping to try to enhance his assassin technique. Let's just hope Blackstar doesn't give it away or that the witch and black blood don't screw it up. Otherwise, all this planning would've been for nothing.

After a while, we were all there. Soul and Maka will either love us, hate us or be totally oblivious to out plans by the end of the night.

Step one: alcohol. Maka didn't drink much resulting in the plan being much harder than had it had to be. On the other hand, getting Soul to accept a drink was as easy as getting Kid flustered about symmetry. After a while, Maka caved in. Even a little alcohol could go a long way. Their reaction to questions would be easier to pressure into becoming the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

"So," Blackstar began as he turned to Soul and Maka, "who's up for a good ol' game of truth or dare?"

Uh... Well... I honestly didn't expect that to happen. I just wrote whatever. So... Uh... That's happening now. The next chapter, on the other hand, I know what's gonna happen. Originally I wasn't gonna have the part where everyone's in on a plan to cannon SoMa but that'll make the next part just that bit better. Well, it's happening. It's half one, I'm tired and I don't care about what I wrote. Too tired. Also, I'm going biking at 6 am so I'm trying to stay awake. I'm not doing a good job of it. Oh whale ? ﾟﾐﾋ. Bye!
