Chapter 6:
Extra Lesson with Stein:
Could Medusa still be alive?
The DWMA was closed for two whole weeks to fix the damages that the witches had caused. Miley had enjoyed the free time, she used it to read. She also had been pulled into Maka's group of friends. She met Chrona who was very shy. She liked him, they chatted for a bit then before Black*Star came charging into the room.
Miley and Maka got along great, they had read a lot of the same books. She also met Tsubaki, who she believed to be a saint. She couldn't believe that she could just accept Black*Star. She enjoyed being with them it was nice to have friends, though she wasn't really sure how she got them.
Death the Kid and his Twin weapons often went out of their to help her out. One day during the break she was once again cornered by some of her classmates they came out of no where and scared them off. It made no sense to her, she got along better with people who where two or three years older.
It was the night before classes where going to start and Miley wasn't tired at all. She stared up at the stars thinking about how fast her life had changed since coming to the academy. She realized that she would rather stay in Death City then go back home.
When Miley really thought about it, she knew she really didn't have a home. She had a house that she lived in, but there she had no friends, no parents, just a roommate twenty years older than her. She lived her one of her parents old school friends. Diana was kind but not really a mother figure. She didn't really care what Miley did as long as the police didn't come knocking on her door.
Miley now had friends something that was very new. If she could only find a partner then her life would be perfect. There would be nothing to worry about. She looked down at the burn she had gotten from Excalibur. She closed her hand into a fist. She was going to find her partner, but not tonight.
She headed toward her room. She sat down on the bed and grabbed a picture from the beside table. She stared at it for a long time. She kissed each person in it and muttered to herself. "Night mom, night dad." She fell asleep with the picture in her arms.
The next day every seemed subdued. No one wanted the mini vacation to end. Miley was glad she wouldn't have to deal with people bugging her this morning. Class stated as usual, and much to Miley's relief she could keep her attention today. Her reprieve from the harassment was over as soon as Stein turned around to write something on the board. Someone hit her with a ball of paper. She just ignored them and kept her eyes on the board. It was going to be a long day.
It turned out it was going to be longer than she could have imaged. After her first class, Miley learned that she was going to be getting an extra lesson with after school. She wondered why Stein just call it dentition?
Miley arrived at Stein's classroom at the end of the day. She wondered what it was all about. What could she had gotten detention for? She opened the door and found Stein waiting for her. He was sitting on his chair as usual. A cigarette hanging from his mouth. He gestured for her to come closer which she did.
"I had a talk with Angela, she told me you attacked a witch with your soul wavelength." He said simply.
"I knew something felt funny." She said. "When I hit the witch it felt different, so you can do it by accent?"
"Usually that's how you find out you do it. Think you can do it again?" She heard something in his voice. It changed in away that Miley didn't like. Before Miley knew what was happening Stein was behind her. He kicked her in the back sending her forward. Miley wasn't sure if she was going to pull off what she was thinking of doing. She used the momentum to push of from the ground and landed on her feet. "Nicely played, you seem to have fight in you after all. Let's see if we can't get more of it out of you. Well if you don't I'll just have dissect you to find it."
"Wait, you'll what?" She asked dodging to the left of him. She blinked and they where face to face. "Soul Force." He slammed his palm into her stomach. Miley went flying and slammed into a wall. It hurt, she couldn't get hit with that again.
She stood up shaking, had Stein really just lost his mind or if there was something she missing. She attacked the witch with the technique didn't she? So he wanted her to use it on him? She knew Stein was unstable, well everyone knew that. But this was an act, if he wanted to kill her he would have already.
Stein was waiting for Miley to fight back. He was taking it seriously, he wanted her adrenaline pumping. It was how she was able to use soul force the first time. He watched her running at him. He very amused and impressed. She really was coming at with everything she had. Sadly it wasn't enough he got behind her easily.
"I've got you!" She spun in the air to face him. She slammed her palm into his chest... nothing. He watched her eyes widen with surprise before landing a blow of his own. She slid five feet across the floor. "I don't get it, why can't I do again?"
Stein crouched down next to her and offered a hand. "I'm not sure, but if you understood something the first time learning wouldn't really be learning would it?" Miley took the hand offered to her.
"Let me try again." She said while leaning against a wall.
"Not today, your body can't take it right now. We'll try again tomorrow." Stein had a feeling it had to do with Miley figuring out she wasn't in real danger. She looked at him.
"You scared the crap out of me, for a minute there. I though you really where going to kill me."
He gave her an evil grin. "Well, that was rather the point. Go home, Miley." He walk out the door with a casual wave behind him. Miley grabbed her bag and followed him out the door. She wondered if she would ever fully understand him. Then did she really want to? Why did she care what he thought about her any way.
She didn't go home, she went to her favorite spot. She shivered when she thought of how Stein's eyes looked. She heard someone behind her. She turned to see a dark haired, tanned skin man. She couldn't really tell who the person was. She hopped down from the wall and headed toward him. "Excuse me, are you lost?"
The man looked at her, that was when she noticed his eye, it wasn't normal. It didn't have pupil it had some sort of circle with a triangle inside. Above where the eyebrow should have been no future was written. He smiled at her. For the second time that day Miley felt something was wrong.
"Well I was told to take a student I might as well take a pretty one. You are a cutie, she won't mind if I have a little fun first." He walked toward her. Miley backed away but not fast enough. He grabbed her shoulders and pushed her against a tree. Then he move in close to her. Miley didn't like the feeling at all. She felt her chest tighten. He was going to kidnap her! Would anyone notice that she was gone?
She slammed her fists into her chest. "Let me go!" She began to struggle against him but he was too strong. "My weapon will be here any minute." It was a lie and it didn't even sound convincing to her. She never really could lie, but then she never had to before. She closed her eyes. She didn't really know what else to do. Miley opened her eyes, the man's presence wasn't there anymore. She felt her eyes burn, she wouldn't crying was a sign of weakness.
She wouldn't let herself cry. It was no big deal. She couldn't even lie to herself. She found herself latching on to whoever had saved her. She clung to them balling her eyes out. She didn't care who it was.
Stein was surprised to find Miley sobbing into his chest. He had bent down to check up on her, but found her wrapping her arms around him and hiding her face in his chest. He wasn't really sure what to do... He patted her back awkwardly, he wasn't used to crying teenage girls. "Don't worry, I don't think he'll becoming back." He was just telling her what she wanted to hear right now. Miley didn't move or make a sound.
After a few seconds Miley looked up to see who was talking to her. She stared at Professor Stein. A flush ran up the back of her neck. "Who was that?"
"No one, forget about him. Don't tell anyone about this yet alright."
"But..."
"Trust me, I have to speak to Lord Death about this."
Miley arrived home and somehow did her homework. It was going to be quiet tonight. She hated nights like these. Tonight was the type of night Miley wished she just had a roommate at least. She was lonely and she didn't want to be alone. She sighed and looked out the window. Why did he want a DWMA student? She thought to herself, yep it was one of those nights. The type of night where all she did was think...
Stein stood in front of Lord Death's mirror. "I'm sure it was the wolf-man, Free." He had just finished telling Lord Death what had happened with Miley.
"Do you think Medusa is involved? You would think that genie hunter would have have destroyed her."
"I have no idea, but knowing Medusa, she's the type if her soul isn't eaten, she'll find away to come back."
"Do you think they targeted Miley pacifically?"
"Seems unlikely. Miley was more likely a victim of circumstance. She was there it makes her a good target."
"We have to be careful Stein. If they think Miley is important in some way they will double their efforts to snatch her. Also be on your guard if Medusa is alive she will come after you again" The Lord of Death said. He sounded serious but sometimes with his voice you can't tell.
"We'll keep this quiet for awhile especially from Maka and the others. Miley doesn't seem the type who would talk about it, I'll let Marie in on whats going on." Stein walked out of the room lighting his cigarette. He wondered what would happened if Medusa did come after him again. Then he shook it from his mind. He didn't really want to know.
