Okay so were finally getting ready for the battle against Soul and Maka vs. Rose.

Soul: "I'm guessing we don-" (Cover his mouth to shut him up.)

Quit! No spoilers.

Soul: "Fine. Uncool man."

Yeah, yeah just do the disclaimer.

Soul: "Whatever. Light doesn't own Soul Eater they belong to their rightful owners, A/N is Author's Notes and O.C., Like Rose and plot are his. There."

Thank you Soul. Now on with the store.

Chapter 2: Soul and Maka vs. Rose Thorn

"I really don't want to fight you," Rose stated.

"Then, you should just give up!" Maka said.

"That's so not an option! I'm sorry for what I'm about to do, but Black Rose Whip!" After she said that the rose in her hand turned into a spiked and leathery whip.

"Soul!" Maka exclaimed.

"Right," he then transformed into his scythe form. They were now going to fight the witch known as Rose Thorn.

Maka was the one to attack first, she strikes with Soul to slice up the whip, however, she couldn't cut through it. "What the heck?"

"Maka, look out!" Soul shouted, which caused Maka to turn suddenly to see she was about to get struck by three vipery rose vines, thankfully she jumped straight out of the way. Soul gritted his teeth and spat, "That bitch won't surrender that easy!"

"Yeah," Maka agreed with Soul landing safety onto the ground, "We're going to need to stay on our toes."

The witch summoned a gigantic onyx rose and sat on top of it, smirking. She held her left hand up and rose vines shot out of it, almost binding Maka and Soul. Maka dodged to avoid the vines and began to run to where she thought the main room was.

The witch began to sniff the air (A/N 1) and tried to locate Maka and her scythe. The window to the far right of her opened up a mirror and her dad appeared.

"Are you actually gonna call me right now? I'm trying not to die here!" Maka questioned, pissed.

"I know you are but I think I have a way that may help you, if you were to do the unexpected, that would be way easier and would help more than you making the same mistake as all the fools before you. Bye now!" The window went back to its normal stained glass.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Maka and Soul shouted in unision.

Just then, they were almost hit by another rose vine.

"Look out!" Soul shouted making Maka dodge.

Maka jumped up and disappeared (A/N 2) 'Wait! Why don't we try striking the mansion, instead of her?' She asked Soul through telepathy. 'Have you noticed that every time she uses a move the floor moves and you can always see movement from the vines outside?' Maka devised a plan and told Soul through the telepathy.

'You sure that'll work Soul?' she demanded telepathically, 'We might only have one shot at that.'

'Stage one: Separate!' Soul went to human form and began to run to the roof. Maka ran to the basement. The witch used her split magic and followed both of them.

'Stage two: Bind!' The master and weapon used their mind link to create a thin, and almost transparent yet extremely powerful string in an oval shape, which, therefore, trapped the witch.

'Stage three: Obliterate!' The final stage was commencing. The strings were meant to tighten and trap the witch, which allowed Maka to catch Soul and swipe at the Mistress but it didn't go as planned and the maids assisted their Mistress Rose Thorn to free herself.

"I am true sorry to fight you," Rose said, while dusting herself off, "But I can't let these girls stay on the street, Black Rose Whip!" She made an extremely spiked and ebony-colored whip, which was simply made of rose thorns appear.

'Take a step to the left and jump backwards three times!" Soul ordered Maka and she listened, avoiding a fatal injury that Rose sent out. The whips came crashing down on where she stood with three of her maids. The quartet of females appeared in the three steps in front of Maka. Rose lassoed Maka's ankle with a rose vine that neither Soul nor Maka saw; she got lifted into the air and lost her grip on Soul.

Maka was sent spiralling into the ground, the vines retreating back to their mistress.

"Maka!" Soul shouted as he transformed back into his human form and landed just behind a sore Maka.

"I'm okay, but I won't be if this carries on." Maka stated, already feeling the puke in her mouth.

She accidentally opened her mouth and it all spilled out onto the floor. "Eeeeww, that's disgusting!" Soul shouted while observing Maka vomiting, he was quickly met with a punch to the head. Soul clutched his head, moaning about how much it hurt.

Rose looked between the two and sighed, she began to chuckle.

"You two are really amusing," Rose giggled. "You remind me of me and my husband when we were just about your ages."

"Your husband, why do you mention him while we are still in a fight?" Maka questioned.

"Well, I just thought that I should mention it," Rose chuckled.

The blonde student was growing irrate with the fact that this witch was mocking her, she felt the urge to end this suddenly. She glanced towards Soul and gave him a nod, "Maka, really?" Soul asked.

"I need to know, now hush boy!" Maka barked, Soul resumed his scythe form. Maka glared at Rose and shouted as the witch sent a vortex of rose vines soaring towards her. The blonde scythe wielder was trapped in place as the vines formed into a cage.

"You do know that we're still fighting…,right...?" Rose said with a slight smirk on her face.

Maka took no time to slice the rose vines cage too pieces. Maka came running towards Rose, the witch gracefully back a space. "Who is your husband? Tell me now!" Maka yelled.

Soul groaned and complained, "Maka, why is it so important that you know this babe's husband's name? I mean, come on, what's the big deal?"

"Yeah, so I need to know who her husband is, it's a female thing. Now hush, or else I'll make you."

"Sorry but I can't tell you," Rose tells them then mutters to herself. "But he is going it get a major talk after this..."

"Aaaawww come on~!" Maka then realized they were in a battle so she held her arm up, "Soul let's go!" He transformed and appeared in her hand. She cuts the vine around her leg that was holding her upside down.

"Geez Maka," Soul said, "I didn't know you had a girly side. HAHAHAHA!" She then hit him upside the wall. "Ow, okay, I'm sorry!" Soul groaned rubbing the huge bump on his scalp.

Rose looked at the two, giggling because they look so much like a married couple.

"What's the plan Maka?"

"I don't know?" she said.

Just then some of the girls transformed into weapons and she was wielding them with easy.

"Wait we could try Formation IZA(A/N 3)?" He asked.

"But we've never tried it out on an enemy before!" Maka complained.

"I don't think we have much of a chose."

"I guess we should try it then," Maka said getting into her first position, sitting cross legged and putting her palm to her other palm. She then rotated her right hand so her fingers were facing down. After that she pushed with her left hand and pulled with her right, flattening her hand so she left was on top.

She then pulled it back until the tip of each middle finger was touching the beginning of the other. She pushed her fingers on the right until they were facing up and the ones on the left were facing down. She created and arc-like shape until her fingers were inter locking.

A bright blue glow emitted from her hands.

'What is she doing?' Rose asked herself.

She released her fingers and clapped five times. She placed her middle and forefingers on her eyes and a bright, illuminating light began to emit from them when she opened her eyes.

The letters 'IZA' appeared in her eyes and she began to mutter in an ancient language "Ichiwa me qupe' we maziya, we takunpa me maziyo. Ichiwa me qupe' we matoya we takuruda. Ichiwa we naqusula kunuwla, me taquwla we awa'i. We mbega me ca tartibu, me taqubiga we ca nguvu. Naqu sula kun biga ndo laquini me ta quwla!"

After she recited that, she herself began to glow and Soul, who was now in her grip, did to. "Maka? What's happening? This has never happened before." Soul began to panic.

"She's using soul empowering?" Rose said in surprise. "I thought that move was lost years ago? How did she find that power?"

"Anyways, this is so awesome and I look so cool!" Soul shouted. Maka face palmed and sent a seismic sound wave towards the witch.

"Did I just do that?" She asked as she saw the witches trying to stand up.

'I'm really going to give my husband a piece of my mind when this is over...' Rose told herself.

Maka heard a weird voice saying something but she just put it off as her conscience. "Oh Lord of Souls hear me call, help us now, help us all!" A weird masculine chanted which sent a burst of light towards Rose.

Rose charged towards Maka and struck her with the scythe that was really one of the Black Rose girls. Maka's arm began to bleed and Rose was almost struck by the ball of light.

A figure appeared in front of her, they were clothed with a black robe-like thing and had black gloves on. The only thing you could see, because the hood was up, was his smirk on his pale face.

Maka began to gape as one name appeared in her mind…

"Jewell…?" Maka asked. The girl took off her hood and it was Jewell.

"Sorry Maka, Soul, but we can't let you hurt Mistress Rose," she tells them. "She helped us from living on the street. I hope you can forgive us."

Jewell held up her hand and blasted Maka. Blood began to pour more heavily from her wound, Soul shifted to human mode and ran to Maka. "Maka!" He turned to Jewell, ready to attack only to see, no one was there. "Where the heck did everyone go?" Just then him and Maka were blind side and tied up in rose vines. "What the hell?"

Just then Rose appeared again. "I'm sorry it had to turn out this way, Black Rose Dagger!" she summons a dagger that looked like a gain rose thorn and walked at Soul.

Maka jumped in front of soul and took the hit, unknown to her, some black liquid ran into her bloodstream and eased her nerves. "MAKA?" Soul shouted.

"Sorry Soul," Maka said, "but I would hate myself if anything happened to you." She then smiles at him. "I guess this makes us even…" she then fell on the floor.

"MAKA!" he shouted. He then then transformed his arms into scythes and cut the rose vines, freeing himself, then ran at Rose at very high speed. "You'll pay for hurting Maka!" He then hits her in the side and makes her bleed badly. Unknown to them some of Rose's blood got into Maka's cuts.

"Mistress Rose!" all the girls shouted.

Soul ran to Maka and picked her up bridal style, he began to run out of the mansion and ran back to DWMA. He took a single glance back, remembering the hate he now held for all these people.

The maids rushed to their Mistress and saw that she was no longer bleeding. "Miss, are you ok?" Jewell was the first to speak up.

"I'm fine," she said. "But I fear some of my blood might have gotten into that Maka girl." All of them gasped.

"But, Ms. Rose, if that is true then-"one of the girls started to say when her lips were hushed by Rose.

"Yes, she might become a witch." She said. "We are leaving."

"Why is that?" Elizabeth asked.

"To see my husband, of course."
