I do not own Soul eater however I do own Stella and all the Earth Seven variants
So I brought some MCU things into this story, I really Love MCU so I'm disclaiming those items there isn't enough for this story to be a crossover though
Chapter 9: Star
"Any luck with anything?" Baki said approaching Star in the Mess hall
"No, nothing! I'm the science guy around here, I should be able to figure this out, I am the smartest person I know but I can't figure out how to power this damn portal. Not even Kyle can power it" Star said taking an angry bite out of his toast
"Have you slept recently?" Baki says
"No," Star says
"You need to sleep Dude," Baki said
"I'll sleep when I have my sister back," Star says as Mak came over with Soula, they were both beaten up
"Supply run go south?" Baki asks
"You could say that it was interesting" Soula said "We got the med supplies, food, and a Cell Phone"
"I didn't tell you to get a Cell," Star says
"We Ran into Crona," Mak says
"Again…" Star sighed
"She wants help, She's too scared to go to Free or Asura which I don't blame her. You know she didn't become a Keshin by choice" Mak says
"She threw my sister through an interdimensional portal," Star says
"She did that so she didn't have to kill her. She was told to get rid of Stella by Asura but she didn't want to kill" Mak says
"The answer is no" Star says "And Stella would Agree, Crona Demonsword can not be trusted"
"I could get to her, I can get past the Madness," Mak says
"And fall in it yourself, the black blood is nothing to toy with," Soula said
"You should listen to your weapon," Star says
"Like you listen to yours?" Mak says holding the phone out "She wants to talk to you"
"Why me?" Star says
"Well you're Kinda the defecto leader with Stella and Spirita and Stein all gone," Mak says "You're the Prince"
"Fine, give me the phone," Star says taking the phone from Mak's hand, Mak sat down smiling. Star sighed and opened the phone, on it he saw a single text message
'You have no reason to trust me, but I promise this is not a trick, Can we meet? I'll come alone, you dont have to. Text me when you get this
"She wants to meet somewhere," Star says
"This is a trap," Baki says
"Probably, but She may be the Key to getting Stella home," Star says
"You're not going alone," Baki says "You're no warrior"
"Duh," Star says "Mak this was your Idea, you and K are coming with me, and you're weapons"
"You're gonna meet her," Soula says
"I have to hear her out. It's the right thing to do" Star says
'When and where" He texted back to the keshin girl
'You choose" Was the response. So he sent her a set of coordinates.
"Come on, we need to head out, Mak, Soula go get Kyle to heal you. Baki go grab K and the boys. I need to go grab my Prototype"'
"The comic toy?" Baki says
"It's not a toy it's a weapon," Star says
"It's a Metal Suit, just like the one from the comics," Baki says
"Whatever," Star says thirty minutes later they were at the entrance of their base he hadn't actually been out on a mission before "Let's go," He said
"Does that thing actually work?" Mak asked seeing the Iron Man suit that was condensed into a ring
"We'll see," Star says "The AI system does"
"Are you gonna be good to make it there, that's a long way to walk, you didn't bring your crutches" Baki asked,
"My braces will do just fine," Star says "I'm not crippled"
"Technically you're disabled," Mak says
"Can you stop reminding me?" Star says, they walked in silence through the woods that all of them knew like the back of their hands, He and Stella used to play in these woods before the disappearance of their parents. Finally, they made it to the ruins of an old fortress from the first days of Lady Death, there were early. But star planed it that way. In the middle was a table of stone. Star sat down. Baki to his left, Mak to his right, and K standing behind him. Soula, Eli, and Patt transformed
"It won't be long" Maks says "It's nearly three-thirty"
"I know what time it is," Star says as he says that the Keshin appeared, he had never seen her before, she had long pink hair held back in two pigtails. She had a very goth appeal to her, and he could not possibly describe the black blob-like thing coming out of her shoulders. It was Small and yanking on her hair. She was trying to stop it to no avail.
"I could of Sworn Ragnarok was bigger than that last time we saw him," Baki said confused, so that was the Ragnorok. The story, as far as Star knew, went Crona was the daughter of the Evil Wizard Typhon who melted down the Demonsworg Ranorok and then when Crona was born he replaced hers with Ragnorok, thus creating the black blood, this was all back in 2014 before the Keshin was reborn. Crona is forever 16 because she became a Keshin, she's now immortal.
"Whoops," Maks said
"Mak Lee Alburn what did you do," Star says watching as Ragnarok attempted to pull the Keshin girls, Crona, he really needed to start calling her crona, Dress up.
"I told you I connected wavelengths with her" Mak says walking over to Crona and Ragnorok
"It's you! Look what you did to me, little boy!" Ragnorok yelled Star closed his eyes and reached out with his own wavelength. Then he felt it.
"You're not a keshin anymore?" He said
"No, I'm not," Crona says "Mak saved me, after that, I couldn't stay with Asura anymore, they would kill me if they found out I lost my powers"
"You lost your powers," K says
"Yea," Crona says
"What is it you want?" Star says
"Now, the same thing all of you want, too Stop Asura, I also want redemption, I have done so much wrong," Crona says
"Ughhhh," Star said sighing
"I know you have no reason to trust me," Crona says
"You're right, I have absolutely no reason to trust you, so you're damn lucky. I'm going to give you a chance but if you mess it up" Star says
"I understand, thank you," Crona says
"If we dont head back now, it'll be dark before we get back," Baki says "We dont want to be caught out at night, especially you sire"
"I suppose you're right," Star said struggling to stand Baki grabbed his arm and helped him to his feet
"You didn't bring your crutches did you?" Baki says
"I only need those when I dont have my braces," Star says
"It looks like they are locking up," Baki says
"Their old Baki, of course, they're gonna do that, my new ones aren't done yet. I'm more focused on building the portal than a pair of stupid braces" Star says "Stella is more important"
"You're no use to anyone if you can't walk," Maks says "Those things look tight as hell, they have got to be cutting of you're circulation"
"Again, I haven't had time to deal with it, I'm not worried about it till we get Stella back," Star says
"Can you even feel you're feet right now?" Soula asked transforming back human
"Nope," Star says
"Alright, take them off, that's not good," K says
"If I do that I cant walk," Star says
"Cutting off you're circulation for too long can cause necrosis" Maks says Bending down he released the strap on both of his braces, Baki had his arms under Stars to keep him standing.
"How ya'll plan on getting me back then," Star said
"Easy," Baki said scooping Star up "I'll carry you"
"I hate feeling so helpless," Star says
"I know," Baki says "You should focus on the new braces, Stella will be fine for a while. She didn't seem to be in danger when you spoke to her"
"What about our world's unstable core?" Star says
"You can't solve everything" K says "Tomorrow I'll go look for that ultimate power source mom used to tell me about. It could be the key to getting to Earth one. And possibly even stabilizing our own"
"Asura is harvesting the core. If we could get him to stop it should restabilize itself at least temporarily" Crona says
"So to save the planet we gotta kill Asura and too kill Asura we need Stella and a whole hell lot of friends," Star says
"I'm for just jumping ship, this world is doomed," Soula says
"I will not abandon my people," Star says
"You know Stella would agree with me," Soula says
"Actually, she would agree with Star, she would never abandon her people willingly. But I'm afraid there may be no choice soon if we dont do anything" Mak says
"What if…. We stabilize the core then jump ship for a while, get stronger and train and one-day return possibly get help from those in the Ocean" Soula says
"The ocean?" Maks says
"I'm using an analogy here, Realm Seven is the ship the other realms are the ocean," Soula says
"Then just say the realms," Star says "I'll figure something out. K at current rate how long do we have before Doomsday"
"Three Months," K says
"What if we try to find the Power Stone. And Stick it in the core" Crona says "it's untouchable by organic flesh, the Keshins could never harvest it and it could fuel the core for a long time"
"Not a Bad Idea," Maks says
"I'll look into it," Star says
"Alongside the portal and braces and a better defense," Baki says
"You're welcome to help," Star says
"Nah I'll leave it all to you mad scientist," Baki says
"Hey K, that power source you're mom spoke of what is it called," Star asks
"The reality stone," K says
"The infinity stones are real then" Star says
"Every dimension has its own," K says "Mom knew everything about the multiverse, all the books you have were all written by her"
"I know," Star says "I haven't even read them all…. Mak Lady Death's Archives, could I get you to research Power and reality stone in it tomorrow. I think I can get at least one of my braces done tomorrow"
"I mean if you dont want to do them you can always use your crutches," Eli says
"The quicker we get Stella, or to Stella the better. I can deal with my crutches for a while" Star agreed
"Ugghhhh" Baki groaned
"We're here, Star give me your access card," Mak says
"You have one," Star says
"Yours disables the Lazers and turrets without a code," Mak says Star huffed and pulled his card out handing it to Mak
