"Do you remember the plan?"
"Of course. Infiltrate, obliterate, escape. Easier said than done."
"Hope Professor's Stein plan works..."

09.30 Crescent Moon, DWMA, Death City, Nevada, USA
Stein, along with 3 meisters, 2 alchemists, and 4 demon weapons, sat alone in the classroom of Crescent Moon. He fixes his giant screw on his head, rotating it counter-clockwise to adjust his Soul Wavelength while his assistant, the ditzy-yet nice Marie Mjolner, brings in a pile of test papers and winked at him before leaving the classroom.
Stein lit his cigarette. "Me and Lord Death devise a plan to enter the Fantina Manor" he explained, puffing a picture of Lord Death's mask.
They listened intently to his words, except for Black Star's usual ranting about "I don't need a plan" before Maka smashes his head with a book.
Stein grunted. "As I was saying" he continued, "Before we lay out a strategic plan, we will send a distraction team to cover your tracks once you enter the premises. Infiltrating the compound is not easy since the creatures who reside inside are easy to beat but in multitude, it's impossible for you to beat them even in Soul Resonance. Once Sid gives you the signal, enter now. "
Everyone nodded.
"I've never seen Professor Stein so serious" Al remarked.
"Try not to see him experiment on someone" Soul warned.
He gulped. "S-sure" Al stammered nervously.
"Oh by the way" Stein added, "We've heard that Fantina made creatures called the Seven out of Crona's Black Blood."
"Seven?" Maka wondered.
"Indeed" Stein said, "Now our plan is simple: while Sid and the members of the DWMA Strike Division, the lot will infiltrate the mansion, enter her laboratory and destroy her so-called 'weapons'. As a precautionary measure, take down each of the weapons and use Soul Resonance to finish them just in case."
Meanwhile...
15.00 library, Fantina Manor, Kent England, UK
As Scylla gazes at the fire place intently, she wonders as the flames consume voraciously at the firewood. But her train of thought was interrupted when Igor knocks on the door.
"I deeply apologise for intriguing your thoughts Mistress..." Igor said apologetically but Scylla gestures him to continue, "...but it seems the DWMA is going to assault the Manor."
"Don't worry Igor" she said reassuringly, "By the time they enter the premises, and they will know the true meaning of our arsenal."
Scylla faces Igor at the distance, her eyes are determined. "Release the creatures from their cages" she ordered, "And do tell the Seven to be at their station. Also, bring me a cup of Pu-erh tea if you will."
He bows before leaving. "Yes mistress."
Present...
20.55 outskirts of the Fantina compound, Kent, England, UK
A blue skinned figure, wearing camo pants and a bullet-proof vest, looks over the distance. Accompanying him is a Negro coloured lady with bandages all over her upper body and also wears camo pants. He carries a modified version of a sniper rifle and uses it to see long distance. What he saw in the scope are inhuman-like creatures, their skin is coal-black, their physical form is muscular and their eyes form a white infinity symbol. They stand guard, their swords and guns prepared in the grassless compound, unknown that their enemies are in the area.
"What do you see Azusa?" the blue skinned figure asked.
"Using my clairvoyance, I am able to pinpoint the location of the witch Fantina" the sniper rifle, Azusa, replied, "There are seven sections on the basement level, leading to a large laboratory."
"Is the supposed 'seven' residing in those seven sections?"
"Affirmative, there are seven of them Sid and it's not a walk in the park."
Sid brings out his walky-talky. "Bravo Team, move into the hot zone" he ordered.
An army of meisters and their demon weapons suddenly appeared out of nowhere from the bushes and the trees near the gates of the compound, their partners readied in weapon form. They smash through the gates, surprising the creatures. But the creatures soon retaliated as the meisters attack them.
There was bloodshed everywhere: blood spilled on the battlefield; flying body parts and internal organs were scattered like the wind; screams, both human and inhuman, was heard in the distance; and bodies fell lifelessly on the ground.
Sid shoots every creature in the head. "Give them the signal Nygus" he ordered the bandage woman.
Nygus nodded and shot a flare at the sky, showing an illuminating image of Lord Death's mask forming in the sky.
"That's the signal!" Ed said.
The 3 meisters, their partners in weapon form, and the 2 alchemists stealthily entered the Manor via window. They beat a few creatures that were guarding inside the manor and proceeded to a door going to the basement. The weapons decided to revert back to their human forms since that there's nobody to fight.
"Oh yeah!" Black Star cried, "Everyone bows down to the great Black Star!"
Before they walk inside, Kid sees a picture frame of Scylla, standing majestically in the background. He notices that the frame is leaning a little to the left. He fixes the frame and made an approved gesture that he is satisfied. Again, he passes a frame that is also leaning to the right. Annoyed, Kid grits his teeth, knowing that someone is messing the symmetry of this Mansion.
(Author's note: it was actually Patty who leaned those frames)
While walking down the steps, Ed told them to stop.
"What's the big deal?" Black Star questioned.
"Quiet!" Ed hissed.
As he opens the door cautiously, a chilling breeze was felt. It was the first section of the basement and inside, there was a figure standing in front of them.
The figure is fairly tall, at least 5 ft 5 inches in height. He has mesmerizing yet bright blond hair, cheerful blue eyes, fair skin and a thin yet strong built. He looks like a badass gentleman stereotype: the figure wears a shiny but black tuxedo with an alpha symbol on his back; pointy leather shoes; rimmed sunglasses and a fedora.
"Oh we have some company" the figure said, his voice sounds like a kind person.
"Who the hell are you?" Soul demanded.
He smiled, showing his perfectly white teeth. "I forgot my codename as always" the figure replied sheepishly.
But a sudden burst of wind surprised the group. The figure smirks wickedly and then charges at them. "My name is Paris the Passionate" he introduced, "And I am going to kill you all!"
He sudden rushed caused his appearance to change drastically: his entire body turns into a body of wind, every gust has voices of lamented cries of human souls screaming inside of him; his cheerful blue eyes turned into demonic red eyes; and his perfectly white teeth turned into malicious smirk.
Everyone dodge his rush. The demon weapons turned into their weapon form and landed on their meister's hands.
They fought Paris with much difficulty: attacking Paris head on is suicide since his manipulation of the wind makes him faster and dangerous to close and midrange attacks. Also, every time they attack Paris, it only phases through him.
"Is that all you got?" Paris asked mockingly, throwing visible razor winds at them.
"This guy's tough" Soul remarked, "How are we going to beat him when he keeps phasing our attacks?"
"It doesn't matter how we attack him" Black Star exclaimed, "What matters is to attack him head on! The Shinning Star will teach you how to beat this son-of-a-bitch to a pulp, Black Star style!"
"Tsubaki, Uncanny Sword mode" he requested.
"Roger" Tsubaki replied.
The weapon that Black Star is holding, a shuriken, transforms into a black, double edge broad sword. His aura turns electrical blue, causing so much power that lightning strikes his body. His face shows determination, markings began to show.
"Here comes Black Star!" he shouted.
Black Star clashed into Paris with such force that he (Paris) became startled of his appearance. With one ultimate slash from the Uncanny Sword, Paris was cut in half before disappearing into the air.
Black Star twirls his weapon. "That's how you do the Black Star way" he said confidently.
As he was about to leave, a gust of wind blew in the horizon. From the distance, Ed looks at where Black Star sliced Paris.
There is something strange about that Paris guy Ed thought suspisiously His body composition is made out of entirely of air. That means that he isn't dead yet...
Then something snapped in his mind. Then the only way to attack him is to let him attack first!
"Black Star!" Ed called, "That freak show ain't dead yet!"
"What do you mean he ain't dead yet?" black Star questioned, "I sliced that guy like Swiss cheese-"
He was interrupted by a cry of pain. Paris suddenly materialize out of nowhere, reappearing behind Black Star with his hand turned to a lance and pierced him at the waist. Blood spluttered and landed on the ground.
Black Star landed on the floor, coughing blood. "Damn you" he cursed and fell unconscious.
Tsubaki reverted to her human form and approached him with much concern. "Black Star!" she called in despair, "Black Star, are you all right?"
Paris laughed maniacally. "I love to hear the screams of pain and despair" he said, "Its music to my ears."
Even in weapon form, Soul saw the ambush of Paris. "Maka" he said, "Let's beat the hell out of that guy."
Maka was surprised by Soul's sudden request. "Soul" she responded, "Alright, I understand."
"Soul Resonance!" they said.
Soul's weapon form start to change: the blade becomes bigger; the tip becomes sharper; and it began to glow colourful with energy.
Maka charges at Paris head on.
We now meet one of the Seven of the witch Scylla Fantina, Paris the Passionate, the sexiest yet the most dangerous of them all. Will Soul avenge Black Star? Find out at the next Soul Eater Brotherhood!
