The Reaper Witch chapter 4
Disclaimer I don't own soul eater and I don't make any money from this fanfiction. This is purely for the enjoyment of writing and people reading. I do hope that you enjoy the next part of this tale.
The nurse's office
(NO no no no no, this can't be happening now. What could have triggered the sudden release of soul energy? Is my spell breaking? No I can still feel its strength, then what happened? Did the scythe shard I gave her really boost her power that much or is it something else? I need to get her back home in the Witch's realm to find out what's happening) Ouroborus was suddenly broken out of her worrying thoughts as Medusa placed a blanket over her shoulders as she had been sitting by Taimat's bedside for hours since the end of the sparring match and while Sever and Blaze had recovered quickly Tiamat was still unconscious and this made Medusa a bit nervous as she worried that her son and Sever could be in danger.
Inside Tiamats head
Well well looks like that witch actually helped me in the end. Being trapped in that boys mind was a nightmare, I mean seriously what was up with that kid and symmetry. In the end though, it was only because of his madness that I'm alive right now. It's almost time for the big show to begin, all I need to do now is trick that girl into unshackling me from the reaper's power and her creators spell so that I can be reborn not only with my old power but with the added bonus of dragon magic and reaper soul power. This time I'm coming back as a true god and then no one would be able to stop me ever again. However I need to be careful as that stupid witch nearly erased me when she made her daughter and I can't risk her finding me and I need to be extra careful as that kids soul seems to be waking up same as me so will need the girl on my side as the kid and I will be the equivalent of those cartoon consciousness but if I play my cards right I'll become an eternal. I'll have the power to become the representation of madness itself as I'll become even more powerful the more madness there is. Oh well looks like the girl is waking up, I just need to find a way to stall the reaper brat so that I talk to our host first.
Nurse's office
Medusa nearly fell on her backside when Tiamat just suddenly sat up in her bed clearly looking confused. "Where am I, this isn't the arena and where are those two jerks I was fighting?" (So she doesn't remember the fight that might be for the best though) As medusa gathered her thoughts she let out a breath she didn't know she had been holding as the Ouroborus lunged forward to embrace her daughter and the tension that had seemed to build in the air seemed to vanish. As Ouroborus fawned over her daughter Medusa quickly checked over the charts to see if they had recorded anything but beside some unusual brain wave activity all her equipment told her that the young witch was fine but non-of the information she got explained the sudden burst of spiritual energy. "Don't worry about that right now young lady and Lady Ouroborus you have no need to worry, from what I've been able to learn it looks as if your daughter just over used her power and needed some extra time to recover. I would however like her to stay here for another night just to be sure that she is 100% fine."(Something is going on that she doesn't want us to know about her daughter and I think we need to know what's going on) "Don't worry I just want to make sure that I didn't miss anything that could be potentially harmful". Ouroborus had a thoughtful look on her face as she contemplated just taking Tiamat home with her and ending this outing early but that would lead to her having to explain herself to Yabba and face Tiamats disappointment and from the way her daughter was looking at her she knew that Tiamat had an idea of what she was thinking. "Fine but please just take good care of her."
Tiamat had a look of relief on her face when she realised that her mother wouldn't be taking her home. "Don't worry mom I can take care of myself and I'm sure Nurse Medusa can take good care of me so there's no need for you to worry. You should go help the other teachers check up on my classmates also could you please tell Lilith that I'm fine I don't want to worry her she's a good friend of mine." Ouroborus just gave her daughter a smile as she left the infirmary.
Death's office
As Maka walked in to Death's Office she could instantly feel the serious mood in the room as she saw her father and Stein leave with sour looks on their faces. "Maka please have a seat, there are some things we need to discuss as I have just received news that is both distressing and problematic. You see I have just received some information that has led me to believe that Ouroborus may know what happened to Kid." "But sir that's wonderful news if we can get her to tell us what she knows we could finally get Kid back!" Maka couldn't hide her growing excitement but Death quickly shut her down before to stop her from getting her hopes up. "Now Maka don't get your hopes up this is a very delicate task we have at hand. Ouroborus has a lot of power both magically and politically. If we don't play our cards right this could end up with me fighting her and while I could win the collateral damage would be immense and we could also end up sparking a war with the renegade witches and neither we nor the Yabba is ready for something like that. You see while most of the renegades are scattered, with the right spark they would come together and rally behind Ouroborus." Maka was starting to understand why her father and Stein had looked as disappointed as they had left the room but also understood why Death was being so cautious but a few questions started filling her head as she had time to process the information she had been told.
"Sir I understand that this is very sensitive in formation but why am I the only one that you called?" Death looked at Maka with a look of interest on his face as he contemplated what he was going to say next. "That actually quite easy Maka, of your piers you are the most perceptive and intelligent and while I doo respect your friends Maka they wouldn't be able to be subtle enough with this information. You see while I know I can trust you and Soul with this I can tell Liz and Pattie because they would most likely cause an international incident with the frame of mind they are in, I can't tell Tsubaki because she would eventually tell Black Star and while he may have calmed down over the years well I'm sure you understand." Maka did understand because while Black star was a ninja he tended to be very flashy and loud. "Now the main reason I called you was because you have the most powerful soul perception known to history as of date so I would like you to watch Ouroborus for me while she and her fellow witches are still here and I would also like you to watch her daughter."
Maka had a very confused look on her face as she waited for Death to suddenly tell her he was joking as she couldn't believe that he would ask her to watch a kid but after a while she knew he wasn't joking. Wait sir why? She isn't a threat is she and she's just a child." "Don't miss understand me Maka I want you to watch her because very little is known about her as Ouroborus has been very secretive with information about her second daughter, so much so that not even Yabba knows who her father even is and all that is really known about her is her age so I'm sure that if you can find anything then we can use that to get Ouroborus to give us her information about Kid. Also, please inform Soul of this information as he is currently off on a mission." "I won't disappoint you sir." However even as she said that she would do her best Maka couldn't help but feel a bit dirty that she would be spying on a child and not just an adult and that things were going to get very complicated very soon.
Nurses Office
As Medusa watched the young witch sleep she couldn't help but feel that something was off. While her original scans didn't show anything physically wrong with the girl her later test provided some interesting information that she felt bad for not sharing with Tiamat's mother but she wanted to live to see her grandchildren so she didn't feel too bad. While Tiamat was awake her machines and her magic couldn't find anything wrong however while Tiamat was asleep and someone was looking there was some interesting things to see. First off her soul was strangely unbalanced while she slept, next the reason for her unbalanced soul was that her inner madness that powered her magic seemed to have split in half, with one half powering her light and another powering her darkness and the slightly scary part was that while she slept she showed some very unusual readings from her brain waves and soul. The readings left an indication that made it look as if her madness was alive and made her look as if she was becoming a kishin. What-ever was effecting the kishin eggs and making them appear more often and more powerful than the norm seemed to be effecting this young girl but who could she tell without having the girl turned into a science experiment and having her mother on the war path. "Don't worry as a doctor it is my job to make sure all of my patients get the best care possible so I'll make sure that I can help you young one. You just rest I'll go get Lord Death and your mother. Hopefully with their ancient knowledge of magic, souls and madness they can help me help you."
DWMA lunch hall
Blaze and Sever where the talk of the school. Almost everyone had watched their match against Tiamat the daughter and future successor of Ouoborus's dragon magic and they were all in ah of how much power was shown during the fight. "Blaze I know you don't want to hear it but we should go see if that Tiamat girl is allright, I mean we did hit her pretty hard with that last attack and I really don't want to meet her mother if that girl is angry with us." Blaze had a sour look on his face as he knew it was petty but he really didn't want to apologize. "Fine we'll go after lunch and if she is available we talk to her." Just as they started eating their lunch a large snake suddenly grabbed them and dragged them into the janitor's closet. "Hi my name is Lilith, I'm a friend of Tiamats and I thought that your fight against her was awesome!" While Lilith was basically shouting her head off both boys just looked at her like she was nuts. "Hey it's rude to look at a girl like she's crazy. Look I don't know my way around and I don't really know anyone so I want you to take me to the nurse's office so that I can see my friend." "Hey why should we help you?" "Come on Blaze don't make things difficult. Sure we'd be more than willing to help, we were heading that way anyway after lunch so why don't you just join us?"
Tiamat's head
(Wait were am I, this isn't the Misty Mountains). Well well it looks like our other guest woke up early. I've got to say I honestly thought it would be longer until you woke up Kid. (Ashura! What are you doing here? Where is here anyway?) Oh that's the easy part but first what's the last the last thing you Reaper? (What? The last thing I remember was going to Misty Mountain on a mission for father and then…..pain, I was trapped in a spell but after that I blank out I can't remember anything else, what happened to me Ashura?) That oh well first things first I'm alive thanks to you Kid, You see when that Scythe Wielding brat destroyed my physical form I almost died but my energy, my conciseness latched on to the nearest living being that could survive my power and had the madness that could allow me to survive and that was you Reaper brat.
Kid just looked at Ashura in shock not believing what he was hearing but while it was terrifying he knew he needed to accept it. (So what? Were in my/your head?) Unfortunately no, you see your father's past caught up with him the day you were attacked. A powerful witch that your father had hurt many years ago caught you. Now that is where things get a little weird, you see using the fragments of the original scythe of the reapers and cast a powerful spell on your body sealing away our minds and binding and manipulating your body and soul. To make a long story short she turned you into a baby girl and raised you as her daughter. Basically the girls mind is in control and we are just along for the ride and the occasional power boost. (…WHAT!)
