Quest for the Vampire! Part 2

xXxX-Why does the 音声VOICE of the 精神 SOUL cry ?-XxXx

"Wow." Soul thought out loud, looking at the Ice Tower, which really didn't look like a tower. It was like a cave, but it was ice. It had strange symbols on the front of something that looked like a cave entrance, just had a boulder in the front.

"This reminds me of Jesus' Tomb…" Maka, a person who reads the bible, said.

"Who's Jesus?" said everybody else. They weren't Christian or Catholic. In fact, they weren't all that religious.

"… Nobody in particular…"

"Then why'd you say that?" Black*Star whined.

"Shut up."

Once they got on a place to harbor their boat, Black*Star and Soul tried to move the boulder. It wouldn't budge.

"Why don't we see if Stein-hakase or anybody has a freaking idea about this thing, PLEASE?" Soul pleaded to Kid, very annoyed.

"Um, how?" Kid asked, very confused.

"YOU HAVE THE WALKIE-TALKIE! YOU CALL STEIN, CHRONA… MARY! I DON'T CARE!" Soul responded, really annoyed.

"Oh, right…" Kid said as he got the walkie-talkie from his belt.

Maka… Tsubaki…?

"?! What was that?!" Maka exclaimed warily.

"What was what?" Soul asked, wondering what Maka heard.

"Um, Maka-chan, was it a voice? Like one that you heard in your dream?" Tsubaki asked, worried as much as Maka was.

"I think… Yes, yes it was!" Maka replied, sounding even more scared.

"Well, probably that big imagination of yours, Maka." Soul said while putting his hand on Maka's head.

"WHAT? Th-that was a lie, right? Right, Stein-sensei?" Kid exclaimed with his eyes widened.

"What is it, Kid?" asked the older Thompson sister.

Kid sighed, and then put down his walkie-talkie. "Maka, that was the first part."

"What's that?" Maka replied in confusion.

"The voice that you heard in your dream, you heard it just now, right?"

"Yeah, why does it matter to you?"

"Well, that's because the first thing that happens, if you want the boulder to move. Did it say anything?"

"Yeah, it said my name and Tsubaki's name."

"Dang, why me?!" Tsubaki cried in displeasure.

"YOU because YOU have to write your name on the boulder." Kid answered.

"Oh," Tsubaki paused for a minute, "You got that from Stein-sensei, right?"

"Yeah. The second step is to write the other person's name, the one who didn't hear the voice but was mentioned, has to write his/her name in blood on the stone."

"Blood?! That's what happened in my dream, he wrote his—"

"Nobody cares!" Black*Star screamed in a British accent.

"WE CARE! STOP THE BAD ACCENT!" Everybody but the 'British' Black*Star shouted.

"Well, anyone got something sharp?" Black*Star said again in the British accent.

"Um… I'm already sharp." Tsubaki answered.

"Ah, ah, yes, quite."

"BLACK*STAR, CUT IT OUT, ALRIGHT?!" everyone screamed, again.

"…Fine…" Black*Star said in his regular, annoying voice.

After all the craziness, Tsubaki changed her left hand into a hand-scythe and cut her right index-finger. With the blood on her finger, she wrote her name in English:

TSUBAKI

Everybody stayed silent for a while. Nothing happened.

"When he wrote in blood, what language was it?" Kid asked Tsubaki.

"It was in Japanese."

"Then, write in Japanese, see what happens."

So, with that said, Tsubaki wrote on the boulder:

TSUBAKI

椿

They waited; again, nothing happened.

"Write his name… too?" Maka said, very puzzled.

"Sure."

And with that agreement, the boulder looked like this:

TSUBAKI

椿

12/24

Then the boulder disappeared. Without a trace, it just vanished into thin air.

"Scary…" Liz thought aloud.

"Well, let's go in and see if that 12/24 guy is even THERE!" Soul shouted.

"AGREED! HYA-HOO!" Black*Star yelled in pleasure.

"Wait, guys, don't rush." Kid said calmly but irritated.

"Hm?" Black*Star said annoyed because he really wanted to go inside the Ice Tomb.

"Why, 'Lil Shinigami?" Soul said seriously, not all that anxious to go in, I guess.

"The last people who went in here never came back." Kid responded with a slightly scared tone in his voice.

"And?"

"And we might end up DEAD."

"Well, too damn BAD! Let's just go!"

Everybody but Tsubaki and Maka ran inside the tomb.

"Maka-chan… Are you a bit scared?" Tsubaki asked Maka in a fragile voice.

"Yes. But we shouldn't worry much," Maka replied while walking inside, "We know the guy, right?"
