Unchangeable
Everyone was really going stir crazy now. Not only has it been hours since Emma had made her escape, but they have no idea where she had ran off to, which was a major problem for them. Who knows what stupid shit her and the two psycho's could be out there committing? Meanwhile they all tried to get their head on straight, and found other things to do to occupy their time.
Blackstar and his desperate need to punch somebody in the face decided that him and Tsubaki would look around town and ask if anyone could have seen where Emma, Hiro and David ran off to and as for Liz and Patty they decided it would be a good idea to tag along knowing Blackstar might pull something stupid and Tsubaki is going to need all the help controlling that moron when he does.
Soul, Maka, Ruby and Kidd on the other hand decided they would stay at the mansion to try to get some clues on where they could of went even though right now they were getting nowhere.
"None of this makes any since in the slightest!" Kidd sighed. Maka only raised a brow as she looked over the notes that Kidd had collected together. From what she could tell by looking at the notes, it seems to read some of the places that Kidd knows where David and Hiro like to hang out a lot. But, what she didn't understand was what wasn't making any since to him?
"Kidd. I don't understand. What seems to be the problem?" Maka questioned him. Kidd let out another sigh as he dropped the papers carelessly on the table, before turning around and meeting's Maka's confused gaze."More than what I can explain, so I wouldn't worry about it." He implied, leaning more into the chair. She nodded her head meekly before returning towards the couch where Soul was resting.
"Hey Soul." Maka said, looking down at her drowsy boyfriend. He slowly opened up one eye taking a glimpse at Maka as she continued to stare at him with wondering eyes, very small strands of hair falling down one by one the more she leaned down and tilted her head to the side. He gave her one of his infamous smirks as he picked himself up.
"Something wrong?" He asked her, she lifted her head up a little."Nothing's wrong, I was just wondering. Shouldn't we try to do something to help look for Emma and the others?" She asked. Soul looked at her for a moment and shrugged his shoulders in response."Sure. What did you have in mind?" He wondered, that was a really good question.
"I don't know." She sighed, not able to think of anything."Maybe there is something I can do to help you." A voice called out causing Maka and Soul both to divert their attention towards the source of the voice."Hey Ruby. How are you feeling?" Maka smiled, walking over towards her. She gave her a weak smile in return."A little shook up, but other than that I'm quite fine." She admitted.
"Who wouldn't be a little paranoid after what just happened." Soul snickered, not trying to sound rude but in Maka's opinion that's how it came off. So she sent him a warning glare as he looked at her a bit confused. She rolled her eyes before looking back at Ruby."Your right about that." She sighed, casting her head down.
"Don't worry Ruby. None of this is your fault." Maka smiled, placing a hand on her shoulder indicating to her that everything was going to be alright. She slowly nodded her head knowing this wasn't the first time Maka had said that to her, but she couldn't help to think she was wrong."I know Maka, but I can't help to think that it is, I had the ability to warn you all of her bad deeds but I didn't." She frowned, brushing Maka's hand off her shoulders.
"You and Kidd got injured, because I wasn't thinking to say something before all of this happened." She pointed out. Maka sighed as she gripped her wrapped up arm."Ruby. Blame yourself all you want, but I can assure to you my injury is not your fault." Maka said in a stern voice. Soul sent Ruby a smirk as she continued to look at Maka's serious face."So don't worry about it. The past is in the past." Soul grinned.
"I think I might have finally figures it out." Kidd announced causing everyone to place their attention on him."You found out where they are?" Soul asked a little surprise knowing he was striking out earlier." I did, considering the data I had corrected the first time was wrong." He smirked, scanning through the notes."So we might actually have an edge?" Maka asked, Kidd gave her a nod."It's not that we might, we do, but if this information that I have now is not right. I sure hope Blackstar and the girls are getting somewhere." He said.
"Where the hell are you hiding!" Blackstar bellowed.
"Blackstar you don't have to scream." Tsubaki said.
"Yeah keep it down you big idiot before you attract a crowd!" Liz scolded.
"Your way to loud. My ears hurt!" Patty exclaimed.
They were now coming to a stop and they had no idea what to do next. Liz was getting really bored of this so called game of hide and seek. Tsubaki could do no more than agree with her. They had asked everyone if they had seen the people they were looking for, but they always ended up with the same answer. Which was that the names didn't sound familiar.
What Liz really didn't understand was how did the names not sound familiar to them at all? Seriously, the people they are out looking for are known for their crimes and nobody has heard of them? It's a little strange once she thinks about it a bit. It's either the people that they asked know who there talking about and won't fess up that they know, or maybe they really have no idea.
"What should we do now? We asked everyone there is to ask!" Tsubaki wined. Liz pondered at the thought a bit. But her striking out as well with idea's gave out a small sigh."Don't know. Maybe we can head back and see if the others had any luck?" She asked receiving a frown form Tsubaki, so she took that as a not such a good idea look and stuck with it.
"Hold on a second. We didn't ask that guy." Blackstar pointed out. Liz and Tsubaki turned their heads in the direction Blackstar was pointing. He was pointing at a girl...or maybe it was a guy? They couldn't really tell if he was a girl or a guy. So being Blackstar he walked up and tapped the person on the back causing him or her to jump.
"W-who are you...w-what do you want w-with me?" He shuttered. Blackstar rolled his eyes as he looked at him up and down. He defiantly was a boy because the way Blackstar could tell, he had nothing. Flat as a board."Calm down will ya. I'm not gonna eat you or anything like that." Blackstar snickered placing his hands behind his head.
"What do you w-want then?" He asked again hoping the creepy man with blue hair would just leave him alone already considering he didn't know how to deal with people with weird colored hair. He couldn't even deal with his colored hair."I was wondering if you seen a maid and two douche bags running around here?" He smirked."N-no. I haven't." He replied shaking just like a leaf.
"Sorry...we weren't trying to scare you." Tsubaki bowed."Yeah. Blackstar intends to get a little loud and demanding." Liz smiled, pointing in Blackstar's direction and she could tell he was glaring at her."It's a-alright. I guess I'm just not that used to people." He sighed, rubbing his arm up and down like it was freezing out."What's your name?" Tsubaki smiled."M-my name?" He asked with wide eyes.
"That's what she just said smart one!" Blackstar huffed, receiving a smack in the back of the head by Liz."Hahaha." Patty laughed, as Blackstar rubbed his now sore dome."My name...is...Crona." He muttered, Tsubaki nodded her head."Wait, I think I heard of you before." Liz said a little surprised, this made everyone give her questioning looks.
"What do you mean Liz?" Tsubaki asked her brunette friend. Blackstar raised a brow, he was now tapping his foot impatiently waiting for her to respond to Tsubaki's question."Yeah Liz. How do you know this dude?" He scoffed. Liz pondered at the memory a bit."I remember now, when Kidd, Patty and myself were out on a case. It happened to be at a mental hospital, and Crona here was one of the patients." She smiled.
All eyes were turned on Crona now and he was nervous as heck. He knew he had some problems, but that was all in the past right? The nice doctors told him that he was going to be alright. He kept thinking to himself as his hands twitched a bit."Crona, if you don't mind by me asking...what were you in the hospital for?" Tsubaki questioned, trying not to put pressure on him. Blackstar nodded his head."I would like to know that too." He agreed.
What was he supposed to say? He got locked up in mental health care for stabbing his mother and father in the neck with a knife several times? HE has gotten better in his opinion, but there was no way he was going to tell them that even if he did see Liz and her sister once before. All eyes were on him. He didn't want to answer, so he could just tell them that or he could knife them. Just like his parents.
The nice doctor told him everything was going to turn out alright. He was going to have a good life. He trusted this doctors every word and why? He told him that if anyone was to pry into his business to much. Don't push them away if you have a knife handy. He grinned to himself."Crona..." Tsubaki trailed as the young boys eyes moved in countless directions.
"I'm sorry, but I can't tell you that..." He grinned making Liz, Patty and Tsubaki flinch a little bit."But, you know what I can do?" He sang. This made Blackstar wonder once this dude was all bland, dull and quiet now he was giggly and creepy about everything. What the hell was going on."Tell me what can you do?" Blackstar challenged curiosity striking him.
"I can always use a knife to solve my problems...that's what the nice doctor told me!" He grinned and quickly pulled out a knife."Shit!" Blackstar snapped as he grabbed Tsubaki and pulled her out of the way before Crona could take a swipe at her."What the fuck is your problem man!" He questioned wondering what was going through this kids head at the moment.
"Blackstar what do we do?" Tsubaki cried out from a distance."Go back to Soul's mansion. I have a feeling that Crona here knows something and he doesn't want to spill it." He smirked cracking his knuckles."Be careful Blackstar, he's pretty messed up int he head." Liz warned. He nodded his head as the girls made their mistake.
"Finally, some goddamn action!" He screamed."My doctor tells me to eliminate you all." He smiled, waving the knife back and forth in the air."What do you mean all?" He asked in a serious tone."All as in everyone...but my orders were to leave Soul alone and make Ms. Albarn suffer." He grinned not even looking at Blackstar."So you do work for those bastards!" He snickered."Not bastards doctors." He corrected.
"Whatever little man, I wont let you even get a inch near Maka!" He snorted."You sure are a loud one. Good thing I'm getting rid of the nosy toys first...It should be a lot quieter when your gone." He hummed."I'm not a toy! I'm a god and shut your mouth brat, who the hell do you think you are!" He challenged."I am nothing more than me." He muttered pointing and knife towards Blackstar's face.
"Looks like were gonna have to see about that!" He bellowed charging right towards Crona before knocking him down cold. Thinking that everything was all over he had another thing coming. Crona quickly got back up on his feet smiling right at Blackstar.
"You have some serious issues." He twitched knowing this fight was going to be a while.
