Chapter 3 The Battle with Franken Stein
Patchwork Laboratory-
Outside the lab the Shibusen students wondered what kind of person Stein could be, they had managed to force Sid into telling them where to find him by Black Star lifting up the end of Tsubaki's dress, showing Sid her thong and Soul lifting up Maka's skirt causing her and Tsugumi to hand out dozens of Maka and Tsugumi Chop's to the head, though Naruto had manage to avoid it when he saw how pissed off Maka became at what Soul did and Tsugumi joining in because of her dislike of what Soul did to Maka.
"Well we're here." Naruto said as they walk up to the door
"Yeah now lets just take this guys soul and be done with this lesson quickly." Black Star said feeling no need to drag this out longer then need be.
"Training grounds a bit of a dump though, isn't?" Soul commented. Their attention was quickly brought forward though as they heard the front door begin to creak open. Much to their surprise a man emerged on a caster-wheel chair... it toppling over as it hit the doorway.
"Shit I'm still not feeling too well." he proclaimed siting-up and twisting what look like a screw in his head.
(Thats gotta hurt!) Naruto thought completely grossed out.
"May be this'll work, okay let me do it again." he said going back to try his stunt once again causing Maka to sweat drop.
"Hey somebody stop him." Soul said.
"But we've just met him." Maka told her partner.
"Yeah and I kind of want to see how this turns out." Naruto add causing Tsugumi to sigh.
"Naruto-kun this really isn't the time for that." Tsugumi said to her Meister.
"Either way I'm really disturbed by this guy." Black Star put in.
"So am I." Tsubaki agreed as the man came out again... only to fall on his face once more
(Dr. Slip-over!) the six thought at the same time...
"And... did you have some business with me?" everyone face faulted at his words as he looks up at his visitors.
"Your Stein right, we've come to eat your soul." Soul said speaking up, causing Stein to smile at them mysteriously as he got back up and sat down in his chair.
"I assume your students from Shibusen?" Stein asked causing Maka to speak up next.
"It's you isn't it? The one who's been attacking students?" Maka asked, he have her a nod affirming their suspicions.
"What do you have against us."
"Not much... My motive is very simple, Training and observation." Following Maka's questioning, Stein informed them that he was attacking for research purposes, as he regards everything in the world, including himself, as an experimental object.
"Hey Soul do you feel something weird?" Maka asked getting the creeps from the way Stein was staring at them.
"Really?" Soul replied watching as Stein kept staring for a moment.
"HM~HM~. Your 'Soul wavelengths aren't very stabilized." Stein spoke at last.
"A serious person who tries too hard and a twisted person, with a very sarcastic soul... your not working well together at all." Sten said surprising them.
"Wait you can see the soul's of living human? This guys got to be a Meister like us!" Naruo said impressed by his ability.
"Not only that, he must be a first class Meister to be able to see our personalities!" Maka added.
"Who care, you guys can see everything too… right?" Soul asks as he and Tsugumi turned seeking assurance that Naruto and Maka can do the same.
"Of course." Maka reluctantly replies.
"Your soul is quavering quite a bit… cute." Stein said exposing her lie.
"Shut up! Don't look!" Maka yell as Tsugumi turn to Naruto.
"What about you Naruto-kun?" Tsugumi asked her partner who just shruged.
"No, not really..." Naruto replied causing tears to fall from Tsugumi eyes.
(I know your just being truthful, but shouldn't your attitude about it be a little more- ya know.) Tsugumi's thoughts were interrupted by Black Star who without anyone realizing it, was now on the roof of the building.
"Ah... ah... shut up, shut up! Your boring conversation for commoners is over! Starting now, we'll start an advanced conversation centered on me!" Black Star howled causing Maka to sweat drop.
(Since when did he...) at that point Black Star jumped down from the roof.
"I don't care whether you can see souls or can't see em! Like I care about others people's souls!" Black Star said landing, Tsugumi out the side of her eyes saw Naruto crack his knuckles, and knew what he was thinking.
"If I can see my own soul, i'm happy!" Black Star added at the end, Stein just laughed at the boy, while this was happening no one was paying attention to Naruto or Tsugumi who had kneeled down and transform into a her Halberd form planting it into the ground.
"HAHAHAHA! Your cool, however you also have a terribly self-absorbed soul..." right after Stein said that Black Star dash at him and tried to kick him from behind only for Stein to block with the back of his arm. Using this chance Naruto quickly picked the Halberd up, bringing Tsugumi to his chin and smiled.
"There isn't really a partner to suit a soul like yours, is there." at the end of his words he spin around while Black Star was still in the air and delivered a hard punch to his face, off to the side Naruto's smile turn into a vicious grin.
"Black Star!" Tsubaki's cries gave her away as Black Star's partner.
"AH! I see you're his partner." Stein said his eye darting over to her as a strong wind began to blow through the cemetery.
"You're very cooperative and have a lot of space to accept people, you match yourself to his soul wavelength." Stein said reading her soul's wavelength.
(What are you bastard!?) Soul thought now somewhat wary of fighting the man before them.
"What about me...?" Stein's eye fell below him just in time to see much to his and everyone's surprise Naruto inside Stein's defenses. It was literally only due to his faster reaction time that he managed to move out of range of Naruto's slash that cut his chair in half.
"What the..." Stein looked up only to see the male blonde of the group was gone.
(How did I lose site of him so easily?) Stein thought as he reached up to the bolt and began to twist it while looking around for his prey. Stein just barely had time to register the roundhouse kick that was sailing at his stomach. Still, he was able to avoid the kick only to receive a hook punch to his kidney. Wincing the man lashed out with a hammer-fist to the boys jaw, sending the boy tumbling away from him... though he was able to land on his feet.
"I see~~~" Stein said smirking as Naruto matched it with one that to be truthful if he was his son would have made Stein proud.
"Your an Assassin, that somewhat explains how I keep losing track of you." Stein said rubbing his chin.
"But what's really caught my attention is your soul's." Stein added as he began reading.
"A semi-psychotic, battle loving boy whose somewhat of a narcissist, and a girl who's clearly timid and shy around people and has a hard time trying to adapt to new things... just how did you two end up together as partners?" Stein asked as Naruto held Tsugumi at the ready as a vicious grin returned his face.
"Who knows, heh, to be truthful I'm not all that sure myself." Stein smirk darkly as he got ready to move while the wind around them began to pick up again.
"Not like it matters since your going to die here anyway." Naruto smirked, and then right before Stein's eyes the boy vanished.
(How!? I kept my eyes on him the whole time.) he thought looking all around him as Black Star jumped next to Tsubaki and Maka who was now holding Soul in his scythe state.
"That asshole is already using "Law of Assassin number 1..." Black Star growled as he landed kneeing down, Maka eyes darted to him.
"I'm still not sure what the difference between Naruto's style and yours." Maka said, Black Star stood up and crossed his arms.
"That's simple, law number 1 is to blend into the shadows...Hold your breath...And wait for your target to let down his guard." Black Star replied, Maka nodded understanding that part.
"However for Naruto, he doen't blend into the shadows but something else all together." Tsubaki stepped in as they all kept their eyes on Stein who was still looking for the missing blonde.
"Soul Resonance!" Naruto's voice yelled causing everyone to look up into the air Naruto had jump at least 20 feet into the sky spinning Tsugumi in one hand over head while grinning insanely, horrifying Maka, Black Star, and Tsubaki. "Uzumaki style!"
"Hey what the hell! Screw this, move it Tsubaki!" Black Star yelled wrapping an arm around Maka stomach.
"Right." Tsubaki complied leaping high off the ground and up into the trees pulling Sid along with her, Black Star quickly followed carrying Maka, trying to get clear of the attack that was fast approaching. Stein failed to realize why the kids jumped away into the trees when…
"Doctor Franken Stein! Get out of the there," came Sid's warning. But it seemed it was too late for Stein to react as Naruto stopped spinning Tsugumi.
"Harudori bolt shot!" Naruto roared as he reared his arm back and threw the power at Stein who just before the blow landed, eyes widen.
-BAOOOOM-
"Hmm~~ Hmm~~!" Patti humed smiling at the chaos they were watching.
"Hey Shinigami-sama, what with that guy he's really hi-spec!" Patti asked grinning with stars in her eyes at the chaos, Kid who had just been thinking about going out there was surprised to see the mad Doctor taken out in one blow.
"To take out Shibusen's greatest number one Meister ever, what power he has." Kid mused with Liz thinking along the same lines.
Shinigami thought otherwise.
"Naruto-kun's attack was indeed Impressive, but I wonder if that's all it'll take to beat Stein-kun." Shinigami said causing the three kids behind him eyes to widen.
Back outside the lab there was a giant smoking crater in the earth, Naruto landed on a upturn piece of ground and was over looking the damage before him.
"Maybe I went a little to far on that one." Naruto mused before Black Star and Maka jumped down then hit him on top of the head.
"Ya think asshole!" Black Star shouted.
"You nearly kill us!" Maka added hitting him again, Tsugumi turned back to normal and went about trying to calm them down while Tsubaki who stay behind in the trees sweat drop at her friends as Sid over looked what had happen.
(Did Stein really just get beat by a one Star Meister?) Sid thought in worry.
"Whatever, Tsugumi hurry up and use Gonzui to bring in that guys soul, I'm pretty sure his body is gone anyway." Naruto told her rubbing his head.
"Right." Tsugumi replied before taking a deep breath and.
"Gonzui!" a voice called out startling everyone as they looked up to see a figure looming over them.
"What the..." Maka said with a sinking feeling in her gut.
"A unique suction ability among weapons, is called the Gonzui, with it they're able to absorb the souls from those who have just lost their bodies. When this form of eating soul is activated, the souls are collected through the mouth at a high rate of speed by suction... right?"
The smoke began to clear showing Stein looking down on them while... sitting back on his chair?
"How are you..." Naruto couldn't even finish his words out of sheer shock at seeing the mad Doctor was still alive.
"Through I'm still not sure how your movements work, that attack of your is something I can understand." Naruto's eyes dulled as he looked at him with a blank look on his face.
"Oh really.." Naruto replied.
"Yeah, all you really do is use that spinning of yours to monitor how the sync rate raises, and stop right before your partner takes on a corporeal form, using the energy to attack with as you please... am I right?"
Naruto said nothing at first but Maka was starting to worry at this point.
(He was able to not only read our souls but also see through Naruto attack so easily, this is really bad!) Maka gripped Soul tighter making him worry about his partner.
"It's a simple but very hard to trick to do! Due to the fact that the control needed for keeping the energy that should have other wise be use to make a corporal form from disappearing is a very hard thing to do." Stein added
"What now Naruto-kun?" Tsugumi ask him as he just sighed while Black Star slams his fists together.
"Man this is gonna be a pain in the ass, but looks like we'll have to work to together." Naruto said grinning Black Star returning it; Stein just raised an eyebrow at the two amusing students.
"Back and Attack style right, you'd better not screw this up, or I'll kick your ass!" Black Star replied grinned getting pumped up.
(Looks like I can have a little more fun with these kids.) Stein thought getting ready for their next move.
"OY, OY, OY, that my line! Tsugumi AXE mode."
Unknown Location
"For you to call me out here... your either very brave or completely foolish." a dark sinister voice said of an average build woman talking to two young men in grey cloaks, though one of them seem to be sitting up top a spider web, she was wearing a black body-length suit with a hood, which extended downward to her knees. The hood itself is adorned with an eye-like marking on each side; she was barefoot, with unique toenail and fingernail polish that were black featuring yellow arrows pointing upwards.
"Relax, we just want to help you in completing your plans." one of the two said looking at the women sitting cross legged in the air on top an arrow.
"And why would you want to help us?" a pink haired girl next to her asked. She had a thin body, a monotone expression, and tall stature wearing a long black old-style robe that was tight fitting and ended at mid-calf.
"Crona is right, for that matter how do you even know of my plans anyway?" the woman asked keeping a close eye on the two, looking for any sigh of deception, she could feel them grinning.
"Eh is the great snake scared? HAHA wuss..." though they couldn't see it because of her hood, the two could tell her face took on the likeness of a snake giving them a psychotic smile.
"Did you know, my older sister, had a liking for spiders? And I really didn't like her, or anything that reminded me of her!" they could see her eyes now glaring at them.
(Damn, a certain snake back in our old world would have loved to meet this chick.) the one standing on the ground thought as he held his hands up in surrender.
"Hey easy now, the fact is the one you want to free, we too want to see his power." he told her causing the lady to raise an eyebrow in amusement.
"HEHE! So you know that much about my goals huh, how?" the lady seemed more amused then anything else, they just smirked back at her.
"Sorry but we can't tell you that." the one standing on the ground replied but the lady only chuckled.
"Well to be truthful, the smart thing to do would be kill you both here and now." she said making them both put up their guards.
"Don't worry, you kids have peaked my curiosity... so I won't." She told them, calming the two down.
"I'll let you help me just to see what happens... but understand, if I feel that your interfering with my plans. even a litttle..."
"I'll rip you bodys apart! And feed your souls to my child, do you understand?" the two nodded knowing the threat was very real.
"So what do I call you two?" she asked.
"Sakon, and this is my brother Ukon." Sakon said. To the ladies surprise another one of them came out of his back.
"There another person coming out of his back and it looks just like him! I'm not sure how to deal with that Lady Med-"
"Quite Crona, heh, you kids are something, and you?" the lady ask pointing to the other guy with six arms.
"The name Kidoumaru." the lady just smirked wondering what they were really after, not that it mattered. If in the end these three turn on her she'd just kill them.
Patchwork Laboratory-
Back at the battle things were really starting to heat up as Naruto and Maka jumped out of the way of Stein's Soul Force, which they had found out earlier was quiet painful.
"Maka what's your deal!? Quite dragging your feet!" Naruto yelled raising Tsugumi above his head, who was now in a golden long pole double headed axe form, and slammed it into the ground lifting up a large chunk of the earth with Stein still on top of it.
(This kid! I swear has more tricks up his sleeve then Spirit-senpai has been turndown by women!) Stein through smirking before jumping off the giant hunk of ground, that got throw all the way over his laboratory. Landing on the ground Stein rushed at Maka who looked startled. While trying to swing Soul at him only for him to duck under the blade and hit her with another Soul Menace attack sending her flying into the air.
"MAKA!" Naruto yelled taking his eye off Stein.
"Naruto-kun behind you!" Tsugumi cried out to her partner as he turn to see Stein rushing at him from the side before hitting him in the back with a Soul Force sending him flying back a good 20 feet before hitting the ground.
"Naruto-kun get up!" Tsugumi called out.
"I don't think so, Soul Thread Sutures!" Stein said out loud. Surprising Naruto and Tsugumi as stitches appeared all around Naruto attaching him to the ground keeping him in place.
(Damn it, I can't move!) Naruto thought in a panic as the crazy Doctor rushed over to him causing Naruto's eyes to widen.
"Shit!" Naruto cursed, about to be hit... but a hard boot slam into Stein's face as a girl with dark hair in pig tails and a school uniform matching Maka's appeared out of nowhere.
"Tsugumi!?" Naruto gasped at seeing his partner leave her weapon form like that and attack Stein, Stein quickly regained his footing as a little blood fall from his mouth.
"Oh~~ you surprised me, I didn't think you had it in you to turn back to normal and actually attack me like this~~" Stein said in a sing song voice as Tsugumi gulped at the nut job before her.
"I might be scared of you, but I can't let you do it! I can't let hurt my Meister..." Tsugumi said standing over Naruto. A scythe blade came out of her forearm that she use to cut the stitches holding Naruto down, and if she didn't know any better Tsugumi could have swore she saw him smiling with approval.
"I see... I'm starting to understand how you two can work so well together now." Stein said while off to the side Soul was very unhappy with Maka at the moment, as she had been freaking out for some reason but before he could ask…
"Good job, Tsugumi!" Black Star yelled appearing behind Stein surprising the Doctor.
"Certain Kill: Black Star Big Wave!" Black Star yell as he elbowed Stein in the back to stun him, then sent a powerful punch sending a large amount of his soul energy through Stein's body... however it had no effect.
"What the hell!?" Black Star gasped backing up not understanding what had happen, the whole point of what they had been doing till now was to make a opening for him to hit Stein with his Big Wave attack but why hadn't it worked?
"I see, so you can use Soul Menace too, and quite well I might add." Stein light up a cigarette then turned to Black Star, A sadistic grin slid across the man's face.
"However I've already read your soul and only needed to adjust my own Soul wavelength to match yours thus canceling it out" Stein said rushing at the boy, and placing his hands on both sides of his head and used his Soul Menace nearly shocking Black Star to death, Naruto seeing this ran over with Tsugumi back in her Halberd state to save the blue haired Assassin but Stein giving off a psychotic grin stopped his attack grabbed Black Star by his shirt and slammed him straight into Naruto.
"Soul Force!" Stein said with a twisted expression shocking them both at once! Naruto and Black Star were sent flying, Tsugumi once again turned back to normal and managed to catch them before hitting the ground.
"Black Star! Naruto!" Tsugumi crier out see the two got taken down.
(This bastered took both of them down in one attack!?) Soul thought hoping to god that his friends were still alive.
"Shit they can't win like this!" Kid said getting up as he was no longer able to stand it watching the battle.
"Liz, Patty we're going too!" Kid said to his partners.
"Ye... yes..." Liz replied.
"Ooooy kay~~" Patty chimed in happy for some action, however Shinigami thought other wise.
"Hey... wait a minute, kid." Shinigumi said stopping him.
"This is their Extra lesson. Plus you're a Shingami not a Shibusen student!" Kid's father told him, Kid however just gave him a bored look.
"Then from now on we'll be Shibusen students as well, farther... I'll leave you to enroll us." Kid replied surprising his dad before calling Liz and Patty to come as they headed out leaving behind a bewildered Shingami.
"Black Star, Naruto, how are they Tsugumi?" Soul asked. Tsugumi just shook her head.
"Not good, there's no way they can fight like this." Tsugumi replied as Tsubaki stood off to the side shaking in worry for Black Star. Sid seeing this spoke up.
"Tsubaki... I won't run or hide!" Sid told her. "I wasn't that kind of man, so go to him."
"Stein! Bastard! I won't forgive you!" Soul said ready to attack.
"Maka I'm going for it!" Soul told his partner not seeing her shaking like a leaf behind him.
"No..." she said, Soul turned around only to see her shaking increase.
"What's up!?" Soul asked as Maka fingers were now clawing into the ground.
"I... see it..." Maka managed to get out; as before her eyes Stein's soul appeared before her as giant ball that was light blue featuring stitches everywhere and single giant screw on the top off to the side a little. But what really stunned Maka was the power behind it, his power out paced theirs by leaps and bounds!
"HEHE... It seem she can see my soul now." Stein said as a twisted chuckle escaped him and grew in intensity and volume before taking a drag of his cigarette.
"The.. our levels are just too different..." Maka said nearly in tears now as her head fall down and was breathing hard.
"Ol! What's wrong!? Maka!" Soul asked very concerned about his partner as her sweat hit the ground.
"It's no good... we can't win..." was the only thing Maka said.
"Dammit, Depressed, Die." Kid fell to his knee and mutter over and over again.
"Aww, again..." Liz said feeling somewhat annoyed.
"Kyahahaha~~" Patty on the other hand was just laughing at the scene.
"What is it...? Maybe I forgot to fold the edge of the toilet paper into a triangle..." Kid gasped only to be reminded by Liz that he always does so before they leave home, but it seemed he wasn't listening.
"Now is not the time for you to be worrying about that, if we don't hurry up those guys are done for." Liz said picking Kid up by the arms.
"Tell you what we'll just run home real quick and check, and once you see that you did we'll run over to the others even faster okay." Liz said not realizing how much of a mother she sounded like at that moment.
"I don't want to." Kid replied falling back to the ground
"WHY!?" Liz screamed now losing her patients with him, Patty just seemed to be doing nothing but laughing.
"If I did forget to make the toilet paper into a triangle then all the toilet paper will ignore my existence, I wouldn't be able to go on if that happens!" Kid told her.
"It just toilet paper! Ya know what just die!" Liz shouted back at the top of her lungs as Patty went on laughing her ass off.
"What wrong! Get it together! What're you doing idiot!" Soul yelled shaking her by the back but Maka smacked his arm away.
"Shut up! You only say that because you can't see his soul!" Maka snapped back. At this point Stein took on an amused smile as he watched.
"What the hell does that got to do with it?" Soul asked his arm shaking in frustration.
"All you saw was his soul right!? It's not like you saw the future!" Soul shouted trying to snap her out of it.
"We can't give up before we even fight! Out of all of us we're the only one who haven't really done anything..." Soul told her.
"Beside weren't you going to make me the strongest 'Death Scythe' so you can stick it to your womanizing dad? Raise your head I'm talking to you" Soul went on facing Stein.
"And this guy, even though he's a sadistic fuck and your wasting time crying while he's still waiting for us to make our move." Maka looked up at Stein and realized that was indeed the case as he could have attacked them at any moment. "Ha! He's a decent guy, a sadistic fuck but a decent one."
"Right? We'll be cool." Soul said smiling and Maka returned it as she stood up and Soul kneeled down with energy wrapping around him.
"I'm sorry Soul! for holding us up!" Maka apologized but Soul just said it was okay, off to the side Tsugumi who with Tsubaki was taking care of Naruto and Black Star had a proud look on her face.
(That the Maka-senpai I know...) Tsugumi thought now understanding why she was paired up with someone like Soul then looked down at her own partner.
"Even though he's a oddball, there just meant to work with one another... like us, eh Naruto-kun..." Tsugumi hoping her partner would wake up soon, meanwhile Soul had transformed back to his scythe state.
"Lets go Maka!" Soul called out while Stein stood there smiling, almost as if he was proud of them or something.
"Soul Resonance/Soul Resonance!" Maka and Soul said at the same time their wavelengths beginning to sync as Stein watched the two.
('Soul's Resonance...' a Meister sends one's 'soul wavelength' into his weapon, which amplifies it and sends it back... you can produce a massive 'soul wavelength' when you repeat the action.) Stein thought flicking his cigarette away to ready himself for the attack.
"Lets keep at it until it breaks!" Soul called out.
"OK!" Maka replied as Stein pushed his glassed up on the bridge of his nose.
(It' surprising they can use Witch Hunting' at that age.) Stein thought smirking.
"It seems you want to finish it in one attack, eh." Stein said as they finish it.
(It done! the Scythe Meister's legendary Witch-Hunter! And this time for real!) Tsugumi thought watching Soul in his crescent moon state.
"Bring it! Come and show me your souls!" Stein howled challenging them, Maka rushed at him taking up the challenge.
"Witch-Hunter" Maka yelled, and Stein undaunted by this Witch-Hunt Slash took the attack, barehanded.
(For them to be able to control the 'Witch Hunter' this well...) Stein thought as cracks appeared in his glasses and was actually forced to put forth some effort.
"Go Maka-senpai!" Tsugumi cheered as Tsubaki watched next to her hoping she pulled it off, but was horrified when he manages to break it, knocking Maka away.
"Maka-senpai!" Tsugumi shouted in horror at seeing she lost.
(Sorry kid... but it's still... too early...) Stein thought watching Maka fall to the ground in pain and was no longer able to move.
"It seem you're barely conscious." Stein said raising a hand to her but...
"I won't let you touch my partner!" Soul said as he appears from weapon state and guards her, Stein seemed unimpressed, and began to reached for him now and... pat Soul on the head!?
"Great going you pass, the extra lesson is o~ver now..." Stein sang out of the blue much to Souls confusion.
"Huh!?"
"Willing to protect your Meister with your own body, that's really quite good~~" Stein stated as Soul looked up to him.
"I'll say it once more, huh!?" Soul repeated.
"It not good but Shinigami-sama asked that I take charge of you and your friend's extra lessons." Stein revealed causing Soul and Tsugumi's jaw to hit the ground
"But didn't you kill Black Star and almost kill Naruto!?" Soul yelled.
"HAHAHA, don't be silly..." laughed a down Black Star as Tsubaki laid him on her lap.
"Yeah don't joke around like I'd die from an attack like that, believe it!" looking to the side Soul saw Naruto was awake sitting cross legged with his hands behind his head like he had not almost been shocked to death Tsugumi was sitting behind him wearing a pence line smile showing she was just as confused as him.
"Their both okay!" Soul gasped.
"Then Sid sensei's is.." Soul said turning to the zombie who was grinning at the boy.
"Sorry you guys... I was the kind of guy who didn't trick people... but that was when I was alive too." Sid told them as Soul looked back and forth between him and Stein not knowing what to think.
"Don't tell me! What the hell is this!? Everything was a set up!?" Soul shouted out loud.
"HOHOHO! But you grew up a bit." Shiningami stated watching them.
"Well it was rather interesting to run you runts around as well, I enjoyed that part." Stein added causing a shudder to run down Soul, Maka, and Tsugumi backs.
(The sadistic bit was real!) the three thought with Naruto and Tsubaki being able to hide it better but still wanted to get the hell out of there... Black Star had fallen back to sleep.
"Well then! Everyone you're tire, right? Please feel free to stay the night here~~" Stein offer but the kids only had three words for it.
"HELL FUCKING NO!" Naruto, Tsugumi, Maka, and Soul all shouted at once!
Shibusen
The morning had come and the six students were back in class glad that the night had ended.
"Aang! Yesterday really wiped me out." Soul said rubbing his shoulder as Maka sighed.
"I know, and I had nightmares of the Doctor operating on me..." Maka mumble getting chills just thinking about it.
"But at least we didn't get expelled!" Tsugumi spoke glad for that while her partner sat next to her with his hands behind his back.
"True but seeing as Sid is no longer our teacher it'll be a pain if after last night we still have to deal with Maka's dad today." Naruto muttered really not looking forward to that headache, something Maka agreed with.
"Oh god, please have mercy!" Maka cried while Black Star complained about wanting to stand out, and Tsubaki told him he couldn't be doing that. Then all of them heard a clattering sound that froze them in place. When the class room door open a man in a lab coat on a caster-wheel chair topped over in to the room.
"OKAY! Well then I'll start the lesso~n!" Stein spoke shocking the six students he had just mat the night before.
"Your're Joking..." Soul gasped at seeing this nut job in their school.
"This might be the first time... I ever thought 'I want to see papa'..." Maka put in as well going white as a ghost.
(Dear Shinigami -sama haven't we suffered enough already!?) Tsugumi thought in dismay.
"This crazy asshole is our new teacher!?" Naruto muttered with a nerves smile wondering if maybe it would have been better to just get expelled, and was annoyed at Black Star who only commented about Stein getting all the attention.
"Today we'll be dissecting a fro~g, so everyone... oh I almost forgot!" Stein got up and sat back in his chair backwards like always and looked to the class.
"Today is quite a special day, not only am I becoming your new teacher, but you'll be getting a new class mate and some other students have been promoted to the Eater class today~~" Stein said shocking everyone but Naruto who wasn't sure what was going on.
"OY! Tsugumi what the hell is this nut talking about?" Naruto ask his partner getting a look of surprise from her.
"Naruto-kun, you been a student for half a year now! When are you going to crack open your student hand book!?" Tsugumi cried as she reprimanded him causing Naruto to raise and eyebrow.
"Why would I do that when I got you for that stuff!?" Naruto told her outright. He was rewarded with a slight whack on the head.
" 'sigh' Anyway Shibusen has two type of classes, the Eater classes are for Students like us, who are battle ready and capable of handling the mission given by Shinigami-sama." Tsugumi began though on the inside she felt the only reason she was in the Eater class was because Naruto was a fight crazy lunatic and had the power and skill to back them up otherwise she felt like she would not be here.
"And the second is call the NOT curriculum or Eater not classes! The ones in these class are judge by Shinigami-sama to be low battle power and not yet ready for the missions we face..." Naruto nodded understanding now where this was going.
(So whoever it was that got promoted must have become skilled enough that Shinigami-sama feels their ready for harder missions, huh...) Naruto thought as Tsugumi gasped at who walked in.
"It can't be! That..." Tsugumi whispered in shock at seeing who came in, a young boy wearing a shihakushō that was white and yellow with blue buttons in front, He had pale skin and violet eyes. His hair was light purple down to the middle of his back in length with scraggly bangs framing his face, next to him was a fourteen-year-old girl of Japanese descent who was very well-endowed for her age with chin-length brown hair, a small bunch of which is tied up on the left side of her head with a red ribbon off to the side came in who was...
"Meme-chan!" Tsugumi shouted out loud enjoy causing everyone to turn to her in surprise but for once she didn't care, the brown hair girl's hazel eyes turn to her and had a huge smile on her face at seeing Tsugumi.
"Tsugumi-chan! I was hoping I'd get to see you soon!" Meme said waving back before receiving a slight whack on the head from... a long red haired girl wearing a black tank top and black pants with the same open toe shoe as Naruto walk in with a scowl.
"Get in there! You can make out with your girlfriend later ya damn airhead!" she told the brown hair girl who quickly apologize, though hope this wasn't how the red head treated her all the time.
"Settle down you two, now everyone I'd like you to meet Haku Senlong a weapon. he doesn't have a partner yet but is very skillful in hand to hand combat so for the time being he will be in the Eater class but will not taking mission until he get a partner, then we can see whether or not he's fit for the Eater class."

"And this is Meme Tatane who as of today is being promoted into the Eater classes, and her partner... Tayuya Satan!" Stein finish, Tsugumi was giggling in joy about having her best friend in the same class as her and everybody went about welcoming the three new students into the class, everyone but two students that is. One was Kirikou Rung who was at the moment looking at his best friend Naruto, the blonde eyes were locked on the red head but not for reasons you might think.
(That girl... I remember that girl...) Naruto thought as sweat started to form on his brow as he looked at Tayuya.
"What's up bro?" Kilik asked sitting next to Naruto whose eyes wouldn't leave Tayuya.
"Tayuya... the last thing I remember before I lost my memory was chasing that red head and someone else through a forest..."
