Chapter 13

(Maka)

"OK, I think that's the last of them. Black Star, did any get past you?"

"Pft, as if any of these freaks could get past a god like me."

"No worries Maka, we got them all." Tsubaki said with a smile.

"Good, that was exhausting."

"No joke, the boss of these things was so uncool." Soul said changing back into his human form. And started eating souls with Tsubaki.

"Yeah, you'd expect it to be at least a little human looking like the rest of them at least." Tsubaki commented.

"You know, the one thing I can't get over is the fact the big boss was a giant octopus." Soul said.

"It was a squid, and don't talk with your mouth full."

Soul swallowed before retorting back.

"Maka that thing was an octopus, didn't you notice the tentacles?"

"No Soul, it was a squid, the head was pointed." I argued back.

"It was an octopus."

"A squid."

"Octopus."

"Squid."

"OCTOPUS!"

"SQUID!"

"Squid, octopus, who cares. Let's just go already. A god like me can't be hanging around a gross cave all day, so let's just forget about the squidtopus and go."

I looked at the idiot claiming to be god and gave up.

"Fine, let's go Soul." I said with a sigh.

"Yeah, yeah, it was an octopus though."

"Squid."

"OCTOPUS!"

"SQUID!"

"Geeze could you two stop flirting and get hooked up already?" Black Star piped into our argument.

"WE AREN'T LIKE THAT." Soul and I yelled at him.

"Sure, you aren't." Black Star said with a look that said he didn't believe us.

Tsubaki just gave a helpless laugh with a smile on the side.

"Man, seriously drop it, it's so uncool." Soul said clearly irritated.

Black star just rolled his eyes. I grabbed my phone from my pocket and called the train station. After talking to a worker there for a bit I hung up the phone. In that short time Black Star and Soul seemed to be arguing about something and Tsubaki just let them with a gentle smile.

"Ok, I just got off the phone with the train station and it seems we won't be able to get tickets to go home till tomorrow morning, so let's head back to the hotel for the night." I said.

"Sure, thing Maka, but we still have some time today, so how about after we let the hotel know we're staying one more night we all go sightseeing together?" Tsubaki suggested.

"I'm up for that." Black Star said.

"Sounds good to me too." Soul said.

"Alright then."

We all went to several places after that and took photos together. We climbed to the top of a mountain, spent our time going through the local market eating the delicacies in the afternoon, and passed though the shopping district getting souvenirs. At one point we all got a bit turned around and I had to ask directions to get back to the restaurant we went to that morning for breakfast. We ate their then headed back to our rooms for the night. I was too tired from all the trekking I did that day and went straight to bed.
