The Expirement; One Solution Causes Many Problems?

Violence in this chapter. First official appearances of this chapter : .

Rosephine's POV

"Are you sure it won't change his wavelength." I asked.

"No, of course not." Huey said in response.

Shortly after the fight with Black*Star, Shikudo passed out, so Huey and I dragged him back to Huey's lab.

"Hello." I heard a familiar voice enter. Kid.

"Hello, Kid." I said as I walked over to him.

"I see the expirement is about to start." He said. "That makes this harder."

"What?" I said as I looked in his eyes.

"I can't do this anymore. I feel. . . dirty."

"What do you mean? Why do you feel dirty?" My eyes began stinging with sadness. I wanted to know. Maybe it wasn't that.

"I'm sorry. My mind can't take it, the balance." He said as he let his hair cover his eyes.

"You don't mean. . ."

"I'm afraid I do. It's been fun. Friends?" He said. Friends? Why? He made me feel wanted, and then dropped me because he felt dirty. I ran past him and out the door.

"Rosephine?" He shouted as I ran.

Shikudo's POV

"Wait, why'd Rosephine leave?" I asked, but it didn't matter, soundproof glass.

She had me strapped down with electric modules pointed at me. Was this her treatment?

Maka's POV

I looked at him tied up. "Will he be okay?"

"Oh, no, but that is the point of the treatment, to awaken the 'cicatrice sangue' form.

"How do you know about the expirement, Proffesor Stein?"

"Ms. Huey asked me to help, and I did."

"That kind of formality isn't needed, I am a student after all." Huey said. "Now, let's start shall we."

Huey's POV

I flipped the switch. The electicity surged through Shikudo. I could not hear it, but I could tell he was screaming in agony. I saw in some places his skin had begun to split, making blood drip out of his body.

Oh, no.

I saw the crosses form in his eyes. "He's starting to weaponize his blood." Stein said as spears of crimson shot from the skin splits. They were strong enough to break through the glass.

"Perché fare questo a me quando si può uccidere te stesso?" He said, looking straight at me.

"The systems won't cooperate, I have to put the inhibitors on myself. Everyone else get out." I yelled.

"No, I can hold my own." Stein said.

Just then a blood spear shot my time machine prototype, and the resulting electrical blast hit Stein, shooting him across the room.

"Now it's really just me." I said.

"Uno a sinistra per uccidere, il resto sono lì per i giocattoli." He said to me.

I grabbed the inhibitor and ran up to him. A spear hit me in the chest and in the shoulder, but I still got up there. I could taste the blood in my mouth as I coughed it up. I attached the inhibitor, which worked in calming him. I know this because he passed out again. I felt my own eyes flicker as I lost consciousness.

Stein's POV

I stood up, in pain. I noticed Huey almost dead from blood loss unconscious in front of Shikudo, who had calmed down. I ran over. "Huey are you alright?" It was then that I noticed something: i was shorter, my voice was higher, and the cigarette i had in my mouth was about to make me sick. Am I . . . young . . . again?

Were you expecting KidxRosephine fluff? I'm sowwy, now get over it.
