Chapter 4:The calm before the Nightmare

Shibusen, Death city, 1:10

"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN BY HE IS MY UNCLE!, WHY HAVEN'T I SEEN HIM BEFORE!"

Everyone winced at Makas yell, though thankful that it had broken the dreadful awkward silence that had covered the group. Our young heroes had spent 10 minutes at least trying to understand what Spirit had just said. 'This man was Maka's Uncle? No fucking way!' However they could not deny that they were similar in many ways, like how they stood, how their hair parted, and how their eye twitched as Maka continued to yell and rant about Shinigami knows what. Soul groaned inwardly, depressed about even more Drama in his life.

'Sigh, as if my life wasn't fucked up even more…ugh… That's it, I need a vacation. Maybe I can get Shinigami-sama to give me some-time off.' Soul sighed, already unhappy with what had happened earlier. He then frowns, looking at the self-proclaimed uncle. 'Hmmm… it's a bit odd…If he is her uncle….then how come up until now we have never seen him before…and that women…' he looked over at the angelic woman, who was just standing there and smiling as Maka ranted, and frowned deeper. 'What is her story…'

Kid was thinking something similar to Soul, his golden eyes narrowing, and his arms crossed, looking thoughtfully at the man and the woman. 'Hmmm... if this is the man Father sent Spirt-Sempai to collect… why exactly is he here? Is it about the body from earlier? And why can't I sense both his and the woman's souls? Could they be like Fathers? Ugh…so confusing…' Liz and Patti were standing close to Kid, Liz's eyes looking suspiciously at her, growling possessively and inching closer to Kid when the women looks over at him and smiles brighter.

Patty does the same, though her growl is less threatening and more playful, narrowing and looking at the women like a dog challenging another one. Kid looks at the exchange with confusion, not sure what was happening but knowing that it wasn't good. He sighed and thought to himself 'Greeeat… more chaos and confusion in my life, just what I needed.'

He looks over at Black*Star and Tsubaki, and flinched in fright when he saw that Tsubaki was literally steaming out the ears. He looked at Black Star, wondering what could have gotten her so mad, and he mentally face palmed as he saw him staring at the blonde woman, blood coming out of his nose and drooling all over. 'Damn you Black Star, damn you and your hormones'

Kid sighed to himself again, and looked over at Maka who was still ranting but nearly done, Soul who looked like he needed a vacation, Stein who's hand was twitching , no doubt wanting to dissect something or someone, and Spirit and Maka's uncle who's right eyes were twitching madly.

Maka finally ran out of breath and she fell to her knees, taking deep breathes, her lung's exhausted. "You done, Niece?" Everyone except Stein and the blonde maid jumps at the sound of the suprisingly deep voice, and looked at Maka's uncle, who had an amused look in his eye. He then holds out a hand to her, smirking softly.

Maka looks at the hand suspiciously, and scoffs at it, getting up on her own and folding her arms, glaring at the man. "Alright 'Uncle', what's your name?" The man raises his eyebrows and chuckles, looking over at Spirit. "She's your ex's daughter alright brother, no question at all."

Spirit smile's sheepishly, scratching the back of his head. "Umm…. Right, I'll uh, I'll let you guys get to know each other better… um… bye." Spirit turn's and walks away, waving, before running off. The man shakes his head, chuckling, and looks back at Maka, who was glowering at him, and Soul, whose whole body was tense and ready to intervene at a moment's notice.

"Well, 'Uncle'? What' your name, or maybe you don't have one, huh? Maybe I should just call you Uncle, well Uncle?" The man stares at her, his face blank… and then he laughed out loud, startling our young heroes and making them jump 3 feet in the air.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!" He laughs loudly, and then slaps Maka's shoulder with his hand, making her wince. " eheheheh…ahahha…. Ahhhhhh…. Shinigami above you are exactly like your mom…whew…" He smiles down at her, eye closed. "My name is Azoth Arridana Albarn, it's a pleasure to meet you my niece."

He bows low, then rises back up and gestures to the buxom maid. "This is my maid, Alexandria." Alexandra bows gracefully to Maka and soul, smiling serenely. "It's an honor to meet you." He voice is soft and quiet and had a musical note to it.

Maka looks at him with wide startled eyes, but then scoffs, and walks off with a "Hmph." Soul gapes for a moment before going after Maka, but then turns and bows to Azoth. "I am sorry about this. MAKA WAIT UP!"

Azoth watches Soul run after Maka, and chuckles, shaking his head. "She is waaaaay too much like Kami…Anyway," He looks over at the rest of the group, except Stein who went off after Spirit, and he smiled at them, bowing to Kid and Black*Star and their weapons.

"A pleasure to meet you all, I am Azoth Arridana Albarn." Kid bow back stiffly, keeping his body symmetrical." The pleasure is all mine, sir. I am Death the Kid, son of Death." Kid gestures towards Black*Star and his weapon, Tsubaki." Black*Star wave casually at him, and Tsubaki bows. "And these are my weapons, Elizabeth and Patricia Thompson." Patti wave's happily at Azoth, but Liz just glares at Azoth and Alexandria, her eyes narrowing, and she sniffs and looks away.

Kid looks at Liz and sighs, then turns back and bows again to Azoth. "I apologize for my companion, she's a bit temperamental- OW!"

Kid winces and hold's his ribs, glaring at Liz who looks away pouting. "Heh, it's I get it a lot, isn't that right Alexandria?" "Hai master, that is correct." "Anyway, I'll be heading off to see your father now, so later." He and Alexandria bow to them, then walk towards the school

Black*Star and Kid stare at Azoth's back as he walks into the building, both frowning as both of them disappeared inside the doors. They shared a look and nodded, then they walked off in different directions. "Come on Tsubaki, lets head home." "O-okay." "Liz, Patti, we're going home." "Hai hai!" "Yeah yeah, sure."

Maka and Souls Apartment, 3:00 pm

"Grrrrrrrrrr, Can you believe that stuck-up, arrogant asshole! Acting so familiar and nice, makes me sick!"

Soul sighed for the umpteenth time that day, watching as Maka ranted and raved around the apartment, throwing her books and pillows at the wall and smashing everything in sight. He casually dodges several thrown dictionaries that imbed themselves into the wall near his head, and sighs again.

The moment they had gotten home, after Soul had finally caught up to her, she had started going crazy, ranting and raving about her uncle's supposed 'arrogant' attitude. Soul of course thought that she was overreacting, though… he did sense something weird about him, some kind of energy that unsettled him… something old and ancient…

A loud cracking noise snapped Soul out of his musings, and he looked over to see Maka slamming her head over and over into the dining table. What was alarming, however, was the giant crack in the table that was expanding every time she slammed her head, and it was nearing the other side.

Soul ran over and grabbed her shoulders, and held her from hitting herself again. "Maka, enough!" Maka looked down, her hair covering her eyes, and Soul heard her sobbing quietly. He sighed, and held her in his arms, his eyes softening and he closed his eyes, hugging her tightly as she sobbed into his chest, shaking and shivering quietly.

The two of them stayed like that for what seemed hours, then Maka pulled her head away from Souls chest, sniffing and rubbing her eyes. "Thank you…" She whispered quietly, still looking down, blushing lightly. She had felt his chest, and her heart was pounding wildly from the feel of Souls tight, compact muscles, and the feeling of his strong arms wrapped around her body

Soul was also blushing, and he turned his head away from her coughing, trying to forget the smell of her soft hair and the way her smooth, curvy body fit against his, fighting to control his growing… problem. They remained that way for a bit longer, then Maka started to talk, her voice soft and quiet.

"I am sorry you had to see that Soul… I didn't mean to lose control… Its just… all my life, I have thought that all I had was Papa and Mama…. And now some stranger comes into my life, telling me I am his uncle…. I couldn't help it… and he acted like I had known him for years instead of just minutes… " Maka scoffed at herself, rubbing her eyes." Look at me… I must look so pathetic right now Soul…"

Soul was quiet for a moment, then he spoke up softly, mumbling out his words. "I don't think you're pathetic..." Maka's eyes widened, and she looked up at Soul who was still looking away, scratching his cheek and blushing profusely. "… I mean… it's only natural for someone to be upset when they found out something like this… that doesn't make you pathetic...it just makes you human… that not a bad thing, to be human… and besides… if we weren't human, we would be no better than the Kishin… so don't feel bad about expressing your emotions… also…" He coughed again and mumbled something that Maka didn't catch, so she leaned in close to his face, causing his breath to quicken. "What was that Soul?" "Um… I said… What I mean is, Agh, Never mind!" He jumps up and runs to his room, slamming the door behind him. Maka sits in the dinning table, her eyes wide and her face blushing bright red, the feeling of Souls arms still red hot against her skin, and her heart was pounding in her chest. "Soul…"

"Damn it, what the hell was I thinking! Saying that stuff, acting like a total fool, then just fucking running away, Gah I'm an idiot!" Soul slams his head again and again into the wall, cursing loudly and berating himself. Thankfully, the two of them had installed sound proof walls so Soul's snoring would not wake Maka up every night. However, that made the walls extra hard, and Soul cried out in pain and held his forehead. "Agh! Damn it all!" Soul paces back and forth around the room, grumbling to himself, but then he froze, remembering something. He looked down at his hands, his eyes wide and a deep blush coming to his face. "… her body was so soft… and so small… like a doll… and her voice… " He stiffened, feeling his pants growing tighter at these, and he growled loudly and slammed his fist into the wall. "… Damn it all…"

Black*Star and Tsubaki's Appartment, 4:00 PM.

Thwack! Smack! Snap! Thwack! Smack! Crack!

Tsubaki winced as Black*Stars fists smacked into the wall in the living room of their apartment, the noise getting louder and louder each hit. Ever since they had gotten home, Black*Star had been in a strange mood. He was quiet, almost thoughtful, and Tsubaki was worried he had cracked mentally somehow. Sure, he wasn't as obnoxious as when he was a young teen, but it wasn't common for him to be totally quiet. After dinner, he had marched into the living room, and ripped off his shirt, nearly giving Tsubaki a bloody nose and making her faint. Despite the fact that they slept in the same room, Tsubaki had never gotten over the sight of Black*Star with his shirt off. His tight, muscular chest rippled as his muscles moved, and his arms bulged sensuously as he took his stance in front of the wall. Then, to her alarm and surprise, he started punching the wall with all his strength. 'The only reason the wall hadn't been demolished by Black*Stars first punch was due to the fact that he is punching a support beam.'

'I hope Black*Star is okay….' SNAP! '…. That's another knuckle broken…. I wish I knew what I could do to help him…' Tsubaki looked at Black*Star with extreme concern. 'If he continues like this, he might very well break his hand.' "Um… Black*Star?"

Black*Star stopped punching, and looked at Tsubaki with an emotionless stare, making her flinch. "Um…. Maybe you should" Smack! "…Nevermind…." Tsubaki stood up and went to their bedroom, shutting the door behind her. She stood there, listening to the dull sound of Black*Star's flesh hitting the wall. '…Black*Star…'

Gallows Mansion, 5:00 p.m

Death the Kid sat in an overly stuffed up chair in his room, dressed in a white dress shirt and black dress pants, frowning deeply as he looked out the window, lost in thought ' Why on Honorable Fathers green earth did Liz and Patty act that way? It makes absolutely no sense to me at all. Woman are so damn confusing… and that man…'Kids eyes narrow sharply, clasping hands tightly. 'Why would Father request him to be here… who/what is he…' Outside, the demented sun was setting, painting the whole city in a brilliant stream of reddish orange. Shibusen itself was bathed in a wonderful light that made it glow beautifully. It was so beautiful, so magical, so… Unsymmetrical.

Kid sighs again, and stands up, stretching his long arms and yawn softly. 'Must I always get tired during the… Yawn…summer? Ah well, lets see what's for dinner." He claps his hands together and walks towards the door, open's it, and walks out into the hallway. The hallway was perfectly symmetrical, Kid noted with pleasure: black and white wall paper lined the walls in straight lines, and two vases of the exact same design sat opposite each other on two black stools… one of which was splattered with white paint.

Kids whole left side twitched with the familiar twitch of his OCD, but he calmed himself, and walked down the hall towards the kitchen, though his left arm stiffened when he passed the stool, so much so that it looked like he would have a seizure. He only unstiffend his arm when he reached the kitchen door, stopping right outside it. He heard the sweet hum of a familiar voice, and he smiles softly, a light flush coming to his face. He breathed in, then out, then opened the door wide, "Hey Li-WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN HERE!"

The kitchen was a complete, utter mess: giant bowls of dough and flower were all over the floor and walls, and thick globs of dough hung from the ceiling. The oven was a disaster zone, with black smoke coming out of it and what looked like burned kidney stones were all around it. Toxic waste seemed to be crawling out of a pot on the stove, falling to the floor in a green pile of slop. In the middle of it all, of course, was Liz with headphones in her ears that appeared to be at full volume, shaking her hips to what sounded like a Katy Perry song, stirring what looked to be pasta. Not that Kid listened to Katy Perry of course. Kid's right hand twitched, his eyes following her hips as they shook to the songs beat, his face growing hotter and hotter with each passing moment, and a strange, light feeling in his stomach that grew larger and larger.

'Must… avert… eye's...' With great mental strength and a bit of reluctance, Kids tore his eyes away from Liz's hips and looked up… and saw her staring straight at him with her head phones off, an evil smirk on her face. "Why Kid, I had no idea that you were such a pervert." Kid blushed bright red and looked away, stuttering, but then he remembers the state of his kitchen and looks back at her, grimacing. "What the hell did you do in here, Liz? I thought I told you to not make a mess." "Awww, come on now, it's not that bad." The green pile of slop suddenly started screaming, freaking the two out, and they watch silently as it slowly slides its way out of the kitchen, screaming all the while, until it fades away into the distance. Kid looks at the door where it left, then looks back at Liz, his eyebrow raised and a smirk tugging on his lips.

. "…..Shut up."

"Make me." Liz's eyes narrow at this, glaring at Kid seeing him smirk cockily. "Don't tease me Kid." "Oh? And what will you do if I still tease you, hmmmm?" Kid walks slowly up to Liz, grinning sexily down at her, wrapping an arm around her waist and leaning close to her face, beautiful golden eyes lidded with a sexy smirk. Liz felt her face grow hot and her mind start to go blank, her breath coming in ragged breathes, a bright red flush coming onto her face. "… Idiot…" She puts her hands on his shirt, gripping it in her small hands, and leans up to Kids face pursing her lips, deep green eyes eyes slowly closing, the sexual tension in the air becoming palpable. Their lips grow closer and closer, the room gets hotter and hotter, their lips almost touching… all of a sudden, the town warning sirens went off, blaring straight in their ears and breaking the mood.

"What the hell is going on!" Liz yelled as loud as she could. "I don't know but there is something wrong… wait… GET DOWN!" Kid quickly tackled Liz to the floor just in time as the kitchen wall exploded and a blue skinned figure flew through the hole and kept going straight through the others ones. Kids eyes widened as he barely caught the figures features. "S-Sid!" Kid and Liz sat back up, their eyes wide with astonishment as they looked through the hole watching Sid continued to fly through the and then winced as he slammed straight through the wall of Shibusen.

They blinked, and turned their heads to where he had come from, and were shocked to see a giant line of destroyed buildings preceding theirs. Kid's eyes narrowed, and he ran towards the door, dragging Liz behind him. "Hurry, we have to see what that was!" "W-wait! What about Patti!" "We don't have time, lets go!" As the door slammed shut behind them, Patti's door opened, and Patti poked her head out of her room, her hair all frazzeled and messy, her eyes wide open. "…Lizzy? Kid-kun?"

Death's Room, Shibusen, exact same time.

"-and that is all we know about the deaths. Stein-kun is currently leading the investigation and will have more answers for you when he is done."

Lord Death, Azoth, and Alexandria stood opposite each other inside Deaths Room, Azoth with an deep and troubled frown upon his scared face, Lord Death bouncing around and bending side to side as usual, and Alexandria was still smiling serenely, though her eyes were troubled from the details that had just been described to them.

"I see…." Azoth looked down at the photos in his hand, eyes taking in the details. He had already seen the photos of what was left of the boys' body, but the girls' body was a whole other story. It had apparently taken a medic team 4 hours just to gather all the pieces of the body, then another hour to identify it, and then a hour to clean up the mess, not to mention telling the families the news. Azoth stopped at a picture and looked at it, grimacing at the sight. It was a photo of the girls head, or rather, what had been left of it. The medic team had done their best to put it back together, but what had once been a pretty face had become a surgeons nightmare, twisted in obvious agony. One of the eyes were missing, and shoved inside the hole was a ornate dagger. Half of the skull was missing too, so Azoth could see the gray matter of the brain underneath, or what wasn't mixed up with the blood and the snot.

What disturbed him the most, however, was the writing carved into the forehead, presumably with the same dagger that was in the eye hole. The message was obviously done by someone with a sick mind:

POOR LITTLE TOYS BREAK SO EASILY

Azoth sighed and put the photo down and, feeling a migraine coming on, started rubbing the bridge of his nose. "What a mess…. Poor girl…." He looked up at Lord Death, looking weary and tired. "were there any witnesses at all?" Death shook his head gravely, and Azoth sighed, rubbing his eyes. "Ugh… this is a bloody nightmare…"

"Azoth." Azoth looked up at Death, surprised in hearing the Reapers original dark voice, getting shivers at the tone in his voice. "Do you really think that he has returned?" Azoth heard Alexandria's sharp intake of breath and he grimaced at the thought of that THING, but he nodded sharply. "Hai, my old friend… It seems that our old monster has returned after all these years." Lord Death suddenly sighed deeply, his body seemed to sag and he looked exhausted. "…After all this time huh?... Azoth," Death looked at Azoth sadly, "I fear… that I may soon have to tell Ki"

A loud explosion interrupted them and they turned in alarm to see Sid fly through the wall to their right and then land into the wall on the opposite side. Azoth ran over, eyes wide with concern and astonishment. "S-sid! What happened! Are you okay?" Sid groaned faintly in response, and Azoth sighed in relief. "He's okay. But how… Wait," He looked over to the hole in the wall where Sid had come from. "He must have come from the East entrance! But that means…" Azoths eye's widened. "Oh no!"

East entrance of Death City, 10 min before

Sid, Nygus, and two other meisters their weapons stood guard at the road to Death city. Sid stood to attention in his combat uniform with Nygus, while the other 2 pairs were half asleep from standing their all day. One of them yawned and looked over at Sid who was standing in the middle of the road right in the heat, and sighed. "Sid, why are we even out here?" "Because Lord Death ordered us to watch the roads so we will watch the roads, because that's the kind of man I was in life." "But why? It's not like the killer left the city or anything, I mean, why on earth would the asshole leave then come back?" "I don't know, but orders are orders so stop complaining."

The meister just sighed, and looked back to watching the road with half open eyes. He was nearly asleep when he thought he heard someone whistling. He opened his eyes, and saw someone approaching them, still far off in the distance. "Sid, someone's coming!" Sid looked over, and saw the figure getting closer, and her frowned. "Look through your binoculars and see if you can get a facial expression." The meister nodded, and picked up his binoculars. He brought them to his eyes, and looked through them, trying to make out their face. His eyes widened and threw them down, and looked over at Sid in alarm.

"It's Hi" That's all he got out as a dagger was buried into his throat, the blade going all the way in and sticking out the back, severing the mans jugular and making him choke on his own blood. Sid's eye widened in alarm, and he turned towards the other meister, about to tell him to run away, but then saw a another knife sticking out of the woman's chest. He looked back at the approaching figure, and saw that he had stopped a couple yards away. He was unable to make out any features still, and he growled low. "Nygus, Knife mod"

Sid's eyes widened as he felt a hand grab his face, and Lifted him straight in the air, and felt himself thrown straight towards Shibusen, and winced as his body slammed through building after building, until he felt himself slam straight into a wall in Deaths room. '…' He thought as darkness claimed him.

XxxxX

The being smiled insanely as its held Nygus by the throat, tightening its hold around her neck. It chuckled to itself as she weakly gripped its hands, trying to loosen its hold. After a minute, her arms fell limp as unconsciousness claimed her. It smirked, and threw her against a wall, and walked away from the entrance, the other weapons dead at its feet, blood pouring out their throats. "EHEHEHHEHEHEH…." It looked towards Death City, and focused its gaze upon Shibusen… and a wide, insane, child like grin grew on its face… the green eyes around its neck on the necklace shook as he chuckled to himself, turning into full blown laughter. "eheheheheheheehehehehehe hahahahahahahaahaha HAHAHAHAHAHAHHHA ….It's Playtime…"
