Tsubaki whispered the word before she passed out from the pain, she felt like she was going to be ripped in two. Maka looked at Tsubaki wide eyed. "So she knew it wasn't a rumor.. She knew it was the truth! Medusa is-" Black Star clamped a hand over her mouth looking to Soul who looked down at Tsubaki who seemed to have the ghost of a snake wrapped around her. Maka was shocked but Black Star just glared as he laid Tsubaki down out of Maka's hands pointing into another room. He was shaking feeling the pain Tsubaki was in from the mark on his hip.
Once out of the room Maka spoke up "So she isn't just a headmaster" Black Star shook his head, Tsubaki had told him a while back but had been promised if he kept it a secret she would be safe. Now he was pissed and knew it was a lie.
"She is a witch and has been doing experiments on the girls to see what she can do to 'improve' them" He looked at the ground now shaking with anger instead of the pain he felt from Tsubaki. "One pair she made into one they have this thing called black blood and live in one body" Maka looked at him wide eyed.
"Black blood happens when a Keshin is about to be born.. It's when a Weapon has consumed enough human souls and had enough witch poison in them to make them powerful weapon" She looked at Soul who spoke up.
"Wait you told us it was just a rumor, and she's wanting to make an all powerful weapon? But why? Lord Death could easily take out anything she makes" Maka shook her head
"If they continue to make this Keshin and she has control over it then it could go either way. The magic used in the poison could be increased, and the witch could then absorb the weapon into herself. She would then be.. If done correctly, even more powerful than Death" Black Star peeked in the door to Tsubaki checking on her before she went back "We have to stop her."
"We can't do that as easily as you think" All eyes went to Black Star "She has these" He paused looking disgusted "Things" He spat the word "That she puts on them, the snake you saw. They hear for Medusa and if something happens she doesn't like they do her bidding. You only see them when they are doing something for her though "She puts them in the food, no one knew about it, and no one will tell anyone out of fear. She may be killed if Medusa doesn't like what she heard." They all went silent for a moment, Black Star looked scared for once, but not for himself but for Tsubaki "So what do we do?"
"First we need to prove some things and show Lord Death, then we find the new Keshin and destroy it before anything else goes wrong" Soul grunted
"And how do you suppose we are going to do that?" Maka smiled giving him and uneasy feeling
"I can sneak in and get close to Medusa, I'm a girl and if I go to Lord Death he will have to send me to the girls dorm right"
"Oh hell no! Not after this happened" Soul wasn't about to let her go in alone. Black star agreed with Soul
"What would you do if she caught you or did something to hurt you, we can't be there with you and she has control over all the girls there" Maka frowned
"I can handle it! I was trained to be a Mister, and I can fight without a weapon. I don't need to be treated like a kid!" Soul glared
"We aren't treating you like a kid we are treating you like family!" He snapped making Maka even more angry.
"Then who is going to help these girls?! If we just go and get Lord Death involved he'll need a plan to get the girls out safe, I can do that!" Soul stood up straight and looked down at her, his eyes glinting angrily
"And what if you get caught?! You still haven't answered me that!" Maka glared right back.
"I assumed you would be able to feel the distress I'm in and help me out! Am I wrong to trust you with my life?!" Soul looked at her surprised and she took a step forward "We could work on our resonance and make it stronger unless you just want to sit back and watch me go. Because one way or another I am going and it will either be with your support or without it." Black star had gone back to Tsubaki who was starting to relax, she groaned which brought both the teens eyes to her. Soul sighed
"As long as Lord Death is ok with it.. I guess we can" Maka looked at him shocked
"Thank you Soul" She muttered after a little while of just standing there, Black Star came in looking put off.
"Well since you two are done arguing, can you go kill the Keshin egg.. I would go do it but Tsubaki needs me" He muttered angrily having wanted to kill the bastard but knew his priorities somewhat.
Maka looked up at Soul who shrugged "I see no reason why not"
(Back with Medusa)
"Lady Medusa! Ribbit" Eruka called out looking around before a snake picked up the little frog and threw her at the witch who caught her
"What is it?" Eruka gulped and shifted human falling on her rump.
"I have news about Maka Albarn!" She was given a look which provoked her to continue "She is the daughter of Lord Deaths Death Scythe Spirit Albarn, and the Mister Kami Albarn Ribbit. She was trained since birth to fight hand to hand, and would often fight against Black Star and Soul Eater Evans Ribbit! She learned how to fight with a Scythe at a young age when she and Soul Evans made a seal Ribbit. At the request of both parents the seal was removed r-ribbit." Medusa looked bored so Eruka hurried "U-unfortunately the seal could not be removed but was h-hidden so they couldn't f-feel anything! R-Ribbit that's all I know Ribbit"
"So this Maka is a female pretending to be a male with a strong link to her weapon. She would make the best weapon" Medusa had a wicked grin on her face as she looked into the mouth of a large snake that held an image of Black Star caring for Tsubaki "And I have the best leverage" She licked her lips happily.
