"I will not let you destroy this perfect symmetry, monster!" screamed kid as he took aim at the tripod and blasted the living hell out of it. Or attempted to. His attacks barely left a dent.

Upon hearing the scream, green-hair, still in transformed state, looked down from the battle at kid.

"NO! KID, GET BACK! GET THE FUCK BACK!" screamed green-hair as he dove at kid. He snatched him by his shoulders and flew away with him.

The tripod stopped acting sluggish and moved with lightning speed, as it whipped one of its three tentacles up. The tentacle's bottom now opened into a gaping hole. The tripod whipped its arm at kid, and sucked him in.

"NOOO!" said green-hair, looking back at kid, who had disappeared into the now closing bottom of the tentacle. He made to swoop and save him. There was still time. But then he heard a scream, and saw Liz and Patty, falling to the ground from fifty feet. Even in weapon form, they would be killed. At impossible speed, he screeched to the ground and caught them as they were inches from the ground.

As he turned back to go for kid, though, he saw the tripod rocketing off into space from whence it had surely come.

"DAMMIT!" green-hair screamed. He transformed back to normal, and fell to the ground. It was ten feet above, but he landed gracefully as a gazelle. Liz and Patty didn't land as gracefully, but due to them being in weapon form, they didn't sustain any damage.

They transformed back to normal. "kid!" "kiddo-kun!" they yelled at the sky, as though they could conjure him back.

"Liz! Patty!"

the duo turned to look at the new figures rushing up to them: Tsubaki and Soul.

"did Kid get kidnapped too?" said Soul, panicked.

"yeah, how did you know?" said Liz, equally panicked.

"Black*Star got abducted by that thing! Maka too!" said Tsubaki, also panicked.

"hee hee! Three legged beastie kidnaps the meisters!" said Patty, leaping around with a smile on her face. Liz knew patty, though, that was her "worried as heck" face. Probably.

Suddenly, Liz was pounced on from behind. Next thing she knew, she was on her back, green hair was on her abs, and he was shaking her by her shoulders.

"YOU USELESS WHORE!" he hollered in Liz' face. "DO YOU NOT HAVE EARS? ARE THOSE JUST ORNAMENTS? WHAT PART OF 'KEEP KID INSIDE NO MATTER WHAT' DID YOU NOT UNDERSTAND? USELESS BLONDE BIMBO!" he screeched, his good eye filled with rage, his black-yellow eye expressionless as usual.

Then his head twitched, and a calmer expression came on his face. "sorry," he said, pulling Liz up. "anger got the hold there for a min. sorry bout that. But seriously, why the fel did you let kid out when I specifically told you not to."

"we… we thought… you needed help…" Liz was still a bit shocked at the normally passive green-hair's outburst.

"well I didn't." said green-hair, now looking at the sky. "I didn't…"

"I didn't expect her veangance to come so soon."

"what?" said the rest of the group.

"n-nothing. Listen, I'm going to go after them. You'll have your meisters back by the end of the week or your money back." He said, trying to get back his carefree attitude, but failing.

"wait just one tuxedo-wearing minute, pal!" said Soul suddenly. "whaddya mean you're going? We're goin with you!"

"yeah!"

"I guess…"

"kid, come back! Geoffry commands you!" yelled patty to the sky, waving a stuffed giraffe.

"it's too dangerous!" said green-hair.

"we can take care of ourselves!" said the three who were paying attention.

"well… ok. What the hell." Said green-hair. Suddenly, he turned happy, and shouted "ROAD TRIP!" he turned around and blue light began to gather in his palms.

He shot the blue light, like a "hadouken". When it was about 10 feet from him, there was a huge blue flash, and where the blue light ball had been, a huge orange rocket ship loomed.

"away we go!" said green-hair, beginning to scale the at least 10-story rocket. And it was lying on its SIDE. That's how huge it was.

His head turned around 180 degrees and looked at the four astonished weapons, and he talked as he climbed.

"this is one of the fastest and most luxurious cruisers in my arsenal. It'll get us there in about an hour or two, and you'll have plenty to do in the meantime."

"where are we going?" said Liz as a boarding ramp extended from a concealed (and opening) hatch.

Green-hair opened the cockpit, and climbed in. "my place," he said as he closed the cockpit above him.

another cliffhanger! Im on a roll! There'll be a lot of cliffhangers from now on.

I do not own soul eater.
