Rise of the Staff Meister

Chapter 13

Taking on Medusa:

Did Stein really go alone?

Mason finally finished his detentions. Him and Miley where just finishing up some homework that was due the next day. When there was a knock on the door. Miley opened it to find one of her classmates. Miley blinked the girl sat two rows directly behind her. They had never spoken before Miley wondered what had changed.

"I just wanted to let you guys know that class is canceled tomorrow." She said. "It wouldn't be fair for you to go all the way there to find out."

"Do you know why?" Miley asked.

"Nope just got a text from a friend. Like I said I just wanted to let you know."

"Thank you, I really am grateful. Most would let me run around like an idiot."

The girl smiled at Miley. She had a nice smile. "Well it's time for the rest of us to grow up. You maybe different but that does mean we can't talk to you." After that the girl left. Miley came back in and started finishing the assignment.

"You don't think she's trying to trick you?" Mason asked. Miley shook her head. She wrote the last few things she needed then slid it over to him. "You're really going to let me copy? That isn't like you."

"I think I'll call Maka see if she's heard anything." She grabbed the phone and waited for the older girl to answer. They had a quick conversation. Maka had also gotten the morning off. Maka suggested that they take advantage and get the whole gang together for breakfast. Miley agreed then remembered something. "You're homeroom teacher is Miss Marie isn't she?"

"Yes, why." Miley hang up the phone and ran out the door. Leaving Mason to finally agree with himself that he needed to learn to read his partner better. He wasn't sure what had just happened. Most of the time with Miley he never was. He sighed, grabbed his shoes and headed out after her. He knew it was going to be along night.

Stein and Marie looked at each other. They both knew sending the news that both of their classes where canceled was a dead give away to anyone who was really paying attention. Stein pulled out a cigarette. "Are you sure you want to go, there is a big chance we aren't coming back."

"Franken, the chances are larger, if I don't go with you. If somehow she able to drive you back there, I can pull you out. We're partners I'm not leaving you to face this alone."

Miley was hiding around the corner. She wasn't really sure about what she was about to do but she did it anyway. She came out blocking the path. Stein had to admit he was impressed she got there quickly.

"I though your classmates didn't talk to you. The one time they decide to. I guess you called Maka to check? It doesn't take you too long to figure out one and one make two. Maka didn't even figure it out."

"It isn't safe to face her alone." Miley said. She was calm. "You should at least bring back up."

"This isn't your fight Miley and it never will be." Stein said, his voice was cold almost frightening but he couldn't frighten her any more.

"That's true I never said it was but it is Maka and Soul's and it is most defiantly Chrona's!" Miley said now getting upset.

"Do you think I'm going to bring children in on my battles Miley?" He moved closer to her. "I won't do that. I'm sorry for this but I can't have you or the others following me." Miley blinked and felt something slam into her stomach. She couldn't believe he had done that, but then again she could. She blacked out and awoke to Mason shaking her.

"Miley, wake up! Oh come on!" Mason begged.

"Mason clam down I'm fine. We need to get to Maka's, we need to get there right now." She muttered as she got to her feet.

When they arrived Maka seemed shocked to see them. Mason was still helping her stay on her feet. The soul force Stein had done was to keep her out of the way. Miley didn't know who else to go to. Lord Death must have given permission from them to go what they are doing. She knew Maka would help. Maka may even know where they where going. "What happened to you?" She asked as Miley sat on the couch.

"Professor Stein is what happened. He and Miss Marie are going after Medusa. I don't think they will come back with out any help." Miley said. She quickly told them what had just happened in the street.

"He told you it wasn't your fight Miley. He wanted you to stay out of it. You and Mason aren't ready for that kind of fight yet." Maka said kindly. She was resting the urge to run out the door. "You can't fight Medusa."

"I never said I could but from what I understand about her. She has lackeys that they'll have to get though. That's where he's going to need help. If he wares himself out he'll lose."

"He'll really mad Miley, you know that right?" Miley didn't understand why that mattered to her but she when thought about it. It did make since she thought about it for a second, then she looked at Maka.

"I deal with it, better mad then dead." She said Maka nodded and picked up the telephone. They were going to need some help.

Well that was chapter 13. Next two chaps will be about fight Medusa and there will be a bit of Stein and Marie. Alright you guys know the drill tell me what you think! Now a shout out to the reviewers!
