I do not own soul eater...

Rise of the Staff Meister

Chapter 14

Catching up to Stein:

Will Medusa kill them before we arrive?

Marie looked at Stein. He gave her a look what told her say what she needed to say. She stopped and sighed. "Don't you think that was a little harsh?" She asked. He turned and looked at her. "I mean did you really have you use soul force? She just cares that's all."

"Wouldn't let her come with us be worse. You know that she wouldn't just sit there and wait for us to come back. Miley is they type who would follow us. She wouldn't let us go in alone."

"I know but, her soul do you think it took damage from that?" Marie asked while she falling into time with him.

"No, her soul might be small but it is strong. Miley wouldn't be out for long."

Miley was shocked Maka had her whole group over in less than a minute. They seemed ready to leave. They began telling them what had happened. Miley was wondering how Kid and his weapons had gotten out of the house with out Lord Death being suspicious. She decided not to think about it just yet.

"Well is everyone ready?" Kid asked.

"Wait someone notice we're missing?" Miley pointed out.

"Not till after it matters. Remember we don't have morning classes tomorrow by the time afternoon comes around we will be half away there." Soul said. Miley smiled she hadn't thought of that. She nodded she was ready to go. They headed out the streets where quiet and empty. Well almost empty. Miley saw a man. He was Lord Death's weapon. She told everyone else.

"I'll take care of him." Miley said. She strolled out into the street. Mason was in her hands. She felt really bad what she was about to do but she didn't want to think of Stein fighting Medusa alone. He walked over and asked what she was doing. She slammed the staff into his gut and knock him to the ground. "I'm sorry, Mr Death Scythe." She said before following the others.

The kids finally reached a spot in the desert and stop. Miley was shocked, there where still foot prints in the sand. They where unmistakeable they weren't to far behind their teachers. Miley sighed maybe they would find them before the reached Mudusa's.

Stein looked up at the lair. He had been to this place before. It held nothing but bad memories for him. Would she drive him over the edge again. He shook it off he had Marie with him. He knew he would be just fine. He felt her hand in his own. She looked over at her. Her face said one thing, are you ready? He nodded at her. He was ready he wanted to get this over with. He had a feeling the kids would show up and he really didn't want them involved.

Miley sighed. She stared at the others who where following behind her. She wasn't sure what she was doing there. She had already said this wasn't her fight. He was going to be so mad! Miley wondered at her own thoughts. Why did she care if he was going to be mad at her or not? He was just a teacher, he may give her detention or a lecture. It not like he was important to her was he? She sighed again.

You alright? Your seem like your freaking out or something. Mason said to her mentally.

Yeah I'll be fine once this is all over. Miley replied. Grabbing a tighter grip on the staff.

They traveled for along time. After a while the foot prints vanished. Miley wasn't sure if the two adults had hidden them or if it was just the wind. Maka took the lead from there. Maka stop in front. "We're here. You guys ready?" The rest of the group nodded. Miley was wondering if they would make her wait outside. "Let's go." She said simply.

Miley sighed, she wasn't really sure if she was really ready. She just hoped that they weren't to late. She shook of the feeling. She knew that they couldn't be to far ahead. She hoped anyway. She looked headed. She was just behind Kid. "Do you think they'll alright?" Death the Kid turned around. He had a smile on his face.

"I think so, they should be. Don't worry Miley it takes a lot to take him down." He patted her shoulder. "Now let not fall behind the others. Who knows what we could run into."

They soon ran into a road block. Miley knew her. She was with Free one of the times that he tried to kidnap her. Miley tightened her grip on Mason. She was ready but not at the same time. What if they couldn't save them? What if they died before they reached them? He must have been able read her body language. Kid patted her on the shoulder.

"I'll take care of her." Black*Star said. "She won't take less then five minuets. Get going."

The others took off. Miley looked back wondering if she should go instead of him. They turned another bend and when down a flight of stairs when they came to someone who Miley didn't know. She was tall very tall. She had a hat shaped like a mouse head. A shirt that only covered half of her chest. She heard Maka mutter something about a nose bleed. The woman's skirt was hung lower than her waist. Miley was glad Mason wasn't really able to see this. She wasn't really seen any one dressed like that.

Chrona step up and called his weapon. "This is our time. We have to prove we really are on your side. I'm not really sure if I can handle this but I'm going to try." Chrona didn't look like the timid boy any more. Miley gave him a big smile. "You guys get going me and Ragnarok will handle this." The rest of the team stared they had never seen Chrona look so serious. "Get going, I'll see you guys later."

After another few flights of stairs the next person blocking they way. Miley knew him very well. She had seemed him twice already and she wished he would stop showing up. Kid turned to her. "Are you okay? You seemed really freaked out."

"Well you see he kinda has a crush on me..." She said.

"He's seen you before?"

"Yeah, Medusa wanted to kidnap one of the students and he kept trying to. I'll tell you the whole story later."

"You get cuter every time I see you." Free said. "Oh come on just tell me your name." Maka stepped up to Free. "I don't want you. I want to little one. She's cuter than you."

"I'm not here for a date, I'm here for a fight. Kid, you and Miley getting going. I can handle him. You guys go find the Professor and Miss Marie. Then we'll get the hell out of here. Now get going."

Soon it was just Kid and Miley running down the hall. Kid kept looking back. "Miley, stop for a second." Miley turned to him. "I think I need to go back and help Maka. He's an immortal and hard to beat."

"I can't go alone, Mason and I are no where need ready to face her on our own." Miley said. "Why don't I go help Maka and you go on a head?" Kid looked at her. He smiled.

"Miley I just have a feeling this is something you have to do. I don't know why but this is your moment. You can't deny that. Get going, you might not even be needed. Going ahead there is less of a chance of fighting then going back. I know Maka's going to need help. Stein might not. Now get going."

Miley turned to go off again. She turned and looked back at Kid. Who gave her a double thumbs and headed back toward Maka. Miley stood there for another few moments. Then she took off at a run. She entered a room. It was large and empty... well not really empty it had two figures in it and they where locked in battle. Miley felt relief wash over her. He was still alive. She watched him go flying.

Stein slammed into the wall so hard he lost his grip on Marie. She when fly and had taken so much damage she turned back in to her human form. She was unconscious. Stein sighed what was going to happen to him now. Medusa came over to him. She was going to kill him, he knew that. He was just wondering how she would. He tried to move his whole body didn't seem to be working. "Vector Arrow." Stein waited for one of the arrows to impale him. The deadly strike never fell.

Stein wasn't sure when he closed his eyes. When he opened them there was someone standing over him. He thought it might be Maka for a whole five seconds. When he say the weapon he couldn't believe who it was.

"Oh it's you again. What's was your name."

"My name is Miley and I'm a Staff Meister."
