The Great Nation Divide Part 3 Tracking a Demon
Lunar sniffed the ground until she hit a brick wall nose first.
"Ouch" Lunar said reverting back to her human form, rubbing her nose.
Chrono landed beside Solar and Lunar, astonished that these two haven't pulled a dirty trick out of their sleeves.
"So it seems that Rena's trail ends here" Solar assumed inspecting the wall.
Soul and the others came along too to see what was going on.
"You find anything?" Rosette asked.
"Only a brick wall that pretty much turned Rena's trail into a dead end" Lunar said.
"There has to be some kind of switch somewhere" Soul said looking around for such a device.
Everyone searched but so far there was no such luck, that was until Lunar heard sounds of collapsing rocks coming down like a earthquake had started.
The first to look was Rosette who spotted Chrono holding one hand standing in front of a now collapsed brick wall.
"That was weird" Solar said.
"Or it might be a clue, since Rena is a demon I'm guessing when I went to touch the wall; it must've reached to me and collapsed it" Chrono explained.
"That makes sense" Rosette replied.
"Sister and myself will keep everything safe up here in Death City since our powers don't work underground" Lunar said.
"Thanks for your help" Maka hugged them both.
After they left, Soul and others entered this catacomb in order to find Rena and stop this resurrection of dangerous proportions.
"So just an added question: What will happen if for some reason Satsuki does get brought back?" Rosette questioned a possibility.
"Rosette if the Demon Neko arrives, our world as much as many more will be in serious jeopardy so we need to hurry and stop them before that happen" Soul explained.
"Right, sorry about bringing it up" Rosette apologized for her rudeness question.
Soul dismissed it and patted her on the back to say that she gave a legitimate question.
Walking down the final fleet of steps a band of heavy armor knights drew their weapons and proceeded to walk towards them.
"Well I guess she knew we were coming" Chrono said.
Soul transformed into a scythe that Maka caught.
Rosette pulled out her twin pistols and switched settings to armor piercing while Chrono went into his devil state.
"Get ready for a fight!" Maka proclaimed.
The knights charged at them, going for Rosette but she shot one in the head knocking him over. Chrono fought off 2 more with bone shattering kicks and pulse pounding punches.
Maka engaged in a clash with one knight and she did a flip kick which also brought upon a single bullet piercing through the knight's armor, knocking him out.
"Well I must admit that was awesome" Chrono said changing back to normal.
Everyone agreed including Maka who released a lot of aggression on those knights.
Soul transformed back to his human form looking at all the downed armored soldiers from medieval times.
"So I guess we all had some pent up anger that needed to be let out and from the looks of things I would say we all did a good job" Soul examined his current surroundings.
Rena meditated on the floor peacefully when all of a sudden her eyes popped open and looked behind her to see Christine standing there.
"I apologize for the interruption but master I keep having these nightmares of them killing Sebastian" Christine feared.
"Those are tricks of your own mind my dear they will fade over time" Rena promised, stroking her protege's head.
"Thank you master" Christine bowed before leaving.
Rena smiled as she went back to her meditation state.
Meanwhile, Lord Death looked in the mirror at himself ashamed.
"What have I done?" Lord Death said to his reflection.
Flashback - 15 years ago
Sebastian walked into the Death Room with a serious yet sophisticated look on his face between his long black hair.
"Ah Sebastian you're here I wanted to come here to first congratulate you for defeating the Kishin" Death started.
Sebastian nodded.
"Though the doctors have told me otherwise that after fighting that Kishin you started to feel...different" Lord Death continued.
"Different how?" Sebastian asked raising his voice a little bit.
Then it hit him like a ton of bricks as he held his head falling to his knees groaning in pain.
Lord Death called in other personnel to take him away before blood starts to shed.
End of Flashback
"Oh Sebastian, between you and Christine you two always got along so well. What happened then once everything changed?" Lord Death asked himself.
He heard the sounds of approaching footsteps and turned around quickly to see who it was. To his surprise it was a hooded figure that stepped in the Death Room to see the big man himself.
"Who might you be stranger?" Lord Death asked.
The figure removed his hood to reveal Sebastian with a battered right eye.
"Sebastian...I thought you had perished during the prison riot" Lord Death never figured another one of the older graduates would arrive here.
"I escaped through that while the other prisoners were going at it" Sebastian explained.
"Well what brings you here?" Lord Death asked still baffled that he came back after 15 years.
"I'm not here for you, I'm here for my weapon" Sebastian got straight to the point, not sugarcoating anything.
He must want Christine, I can't tell him she's with Rena and are plotting something
"Well where is she?" Sebastian demanded answers.
"To be honest I have no idea but I'm sure that she's out there" Lord Death had to lie in order to keep Sebastian from losing it.
"I'll search this whole god damn city to find Christine" Sebastian proclaimed leaving the Death Room.
Lord Death gave a long sigh.
What did I do?
