Haha! So I literally have written most of this chapter IN SCHOOL. You see, we have had a lot of assignments and projects in class that we use laptops for. Basically after I finished the assignment I'd continue this on Google Docs. So... that's why I was able to finish this so fast. Anyways enjoy!

Chapter 6

The Death Room was crowded with all of the top meisters and their weapons, death scythes, and faculty of the DWMA. Their conversations flooded the room, making it hard to identify specific voices. Soul and Maka stood in the midst of the chaos, hand in hand, searching for their friends.

"MAKA!" Yelled a certain red haired death scythe. His yell was so loud it somehow made the noise of the room dim down to almost nothing, but it soon began to rise up again. Maka grumbled as her father, Spirit Albarn, rushed through the crowd to her side. "Where the hell were you last night?! Were you hurt or sick?!" He screamed in her ear. She shoved him away so hard he lost his balance and fell to the floor.

"Dad I'm fine. I was just... busy." She answered in an annoyed tone. She scooted closer to Soul.

"Trust me pops, she's fine." He said. The word "pops" made Spirits face turn red and it looked like his head was about to blow to pieces right there.

"What did you just call me, punk?" He snarled. Soul simply sneered and held up Makas hand, revealing the big, beautiful diamond ring on her finger. Spirits mouth almost dropped to the floor and his words came out like little whimpers.

'Maka... you mean... with HIM?!" He whimpered as tears formed in his eyes. Maka began to chuckle slightly.

"Yes dad, we're engaged. And nothing you can say will change that. I'm Soul's now." She hugged Soul and looked mockingly at her father who was now curled up in a ball on the floor, sobbing like a three year old. They both laughed then walked away from the sorry sight to find everyone else. Suddenly Soul zipped around and held up his arm in guard as Black*Star came crashing down from the ceiling with his fist extended. Soul easily blocked it and threw him to the ground, causing the floor to crumble into a large crater under him. Black*Star twitched as blood dripped from his mouth and nose. Maka gasped and kneeled next to him, but Soul just stood there and sighed.

"Black*Star!" Tsubaki yelled as she ran up to her meisters aid. "Soul why can't you be more gentle with him?" She said as she wiped a drop of blood from the side of Black*Stars mouth. Soul simply shrugged and and returned his hand into Makas grasp. Tsubaki looked up and noticed the ring on her finger. She gasped and stood up, and stuck her head in between theirs. "So guys, is there something you need to tell me?" She giggled. Maka began to blush and Soul grinned with his shark-like teeth.

"Well haven't you already guessed?" Maka said holding up her hand. She liked not even having to say it, that simply showing her ring said it all.

"Oh my god this is so exciting. I'm so happy for you both." She exclaimed as she pulled them both into a big hug. Black*Star groaned and held up his hand and gave them a big thumbs up. Soul laughed and helped up his friend. They bumped their knuckles together and laughed.

Soon, Lord Death held up his hand to silence everyone. As the room got quiet a serious feeling flooded the room. He stood for a few moments before speaking.

"Hello everyone. Thank you for coming so early in the morning. As most of you know we have a big crisis on our hands." He sighed then continued. "Our fellow meister Crona has been having strange visions from Medusa. He has gone off somewhere, and we cannot find him. We can only hope he has the power to keep himself from her control, but we cannot be sure of his victory. If he can't keep his mind from her grasp then Medusa could be restored. Then we would have a major problem. Her anger and hatred towards us will leave her with no mercy towards the city. So that's why I have called you here. We need many search parties out and looking for him. CHeck everywhere, even outside of the city. I want groups of at least 6, just for save measures, and I want them formed by tonight. When you have your group then report back to me so we can get you registered." He waved a hand at Spirit, Stein, and Marie. "Or to one of my death scythes. Make sure you have an adult with you, kids." He turned around. "That is all. Please be safe, and best of luck to all of you." Then he left. The room remained silent as everyone crammed out of the room. Of course Maka, Soul, Spirit, and everyone else stayed in. Kid, Liz, and Patty all met up with the five of them.

"So I guess it's obvious what our team is gonna be." Kid said. Everyone nodded in agreement.

"I think it's best we get all of our stuff together. We can report back to Death a soon as everyone's ready." Spirit suggested.

"Hey old man, who put you in charge?" Soul demanded. Spirit sighed and put a hand on his shoulder.

"Considering I'm not only the adult here, but a Death Scythe, I think you'd better just listen to me." He snapped. Tsubaki said her farewells and pulled Black*Star along and out of the room. Soon after Kid, Patty, and Liz left. No one was really in the mood for any conversations, or talking about Crona. As Maka and Soul began to walk out Spirit grabbed ahold of Souls arm.

"Can I speak to you for a minute. In private." He shot a look at Maka. Soul nodded and she walked out and left the two of them alone.

"What is this all about?" Soul asked. Spirit sighed and looked towards the ground.

"Look... as much as I don't like it, Maka loves you. She is always so happy around you, and you seem to make he sadness and agony go away. I can't choose those feelings for her. So just remember this: do NOT dare break her heart. Don't let her get hurt. Protect her with all of her strength. You will regret it if you don't." Soul grinned.

"You can count on that. I won't let anything happen to her." A sigh of relief came out of Spirits throat.

"Well then, let's get this Crona business over with, son." When he called Soul "son" it made Soul realize that Spirit had accepted their relationship and wouldn't have to worry about waking up to find Spirit holding a machete or gun up to his head. Soul turned and left to meet up with Maka. Spirit stayed behind and wiped a drop of sweat from his forehead. Good kid. I really hope I can trust him. He thought. Suddenly a voice from the shadowed part of the room made Spirit jump.

"Well look who it is." Said the voice. Spirit turned around, but as he did the figure jumped out and hit Spirit full on. He tried to wrestle against it, but it was too strong and he had to give up.

"Now give in. Let the darkness take you." Spirit glared into the figures pure white eyes before watching the room fade to black and losing consciousness.

OH NO! What is gonna happen to Spirit?! I'll work as fast as I can to finish the next chapter, but I highly doubt it will be released before Christmas break is over. But you never know. So seriously, R&R, I want to know what I can improve on! Anywayz see ya 'round (^u^)
