(Yeah, I only own Spirit Taker and Diamond. The rest of the characters belong to Atsushi Okubo.)

As he fell closer to the ground, Maka didn't know what to do. This had all happened before, except it wasn't the hit from a person she barely knew, and this wasn't by choice, she had to fight this person.
But why was Soul so protective? She might have never known why.
And now, on the ground lay Soul Eater, lying in his own blood…
A Soul to be forgotten… part 2
"She is your sister?" Maka eyes widened as she heard those words come out of Soul's mouth.
"That's all I'm saying, Maka…" Soul said as his voice trailed off.
Shinigami-sama noticed the entire gloomy aura in the room. Soul was sulking because his sister was an insane person that was so close to a Kishin, Maka was sulking because soul felt bad and she thought it was her fault, and Diamond was in a corner, sulking because of being annoyed of Excalibur and realized the fact that the DeathScythe that was his was a killer, but he always knew that. He wanted to forget.
So, Shinigami-sama attempted to cheer them up, or at least get them to speak again.
"But, Diamond-kun can release her from the insanity and we can be all happy, right?"
Then Soul realized that his sister could be brought back to sanity, and then Maka realized that Soul was happy, but Diamond was still annoyed.
"Then, you three; shoo-shoo." Excalibur commanded the three children.
"Alright, then, bye, Shinigami-sama… and you…" Maka said as she walked down the hall with Soul.
But Diamond was giving Excalibur the death-glare and didn't budge.
"Let's just go already!" Soul yelled as he dragged Diamond from his staring contest with a thing that never blinks.

Far out of Death City… in a cave…?
"Holy crap." Maka said as she stared at all of the fresh blood on the ground. She swore she even saw a hand detached from an arm.
"You might wanna get used to it Maka…" Soul said with fear as he as well stared at the gore.
Diamond didn't seem to mind. He walked just like it was normal to him, which it probably was.
Maka noticed some movement in the shadows. She jumped when she heard something like metal hit the floor.
Soul's head turned around to see where the sound was, but there was no source of it from anywhere.
Diamond turned his head to the right of himself. And he walked in that direction, saying: "Come on, this way."
"Is that where the noise came from?" Maka asked, not wanting to go here anymore.
"No, but I smell a Kishin soul being consumed." Then he stopped for a second, "I want to eat something…"
And, with that said, he ran over to where ever he was running to.
"WAIT!" Soul and Maka screamed at the vampire, running after him.
Soul transformed into a scythe, because he didn't want to run.
Maka seemed to read Soul's mind, she had an annoyed look on her face, but picked him up and started to run faster.
As they advanced into darkness, they heard a scream. It was a male voice screaming, whatever what or it was, it was a scream of absolute pain and fear.
Maka felt a large amount of Soul Wavelength, so she kept on running, curious of where the soul was.
But, curiosity killed the cat… Maka thought to herself.
With the thought of being attacked and getting killed, she stopped.
Once Diamond noticed her stop, he turned around and ran towards her.
"Maka, is there a problem?" The vampire asked, trying to make her move.
After Maka heard his voice, she snapped out of it, and responded, "Just a scary image in my head that's all!" She faked a smile.
And Diamond could tell that, but he really wanted to get a move on, so he just ran, and Maka followed.
--
After a long amount of time running, slipping on the bloodied floor, breaks, and a bit of nagging, Soul, Maka, and Diamond noticed a piece of armor on the floor, all torn apart.
But where it was torn, there was blood, and the soul was gone.
Diamond sighed, and then called out to thin air, "Spirit, kiddo, where are you?"
"YOU CALL MY SISTER KIDDO!?" Soul screamed at the vampire.
"That is because she acts like a child, no wonder you are related…"
Then Soul grabbed Diamond, "SAY THAT AGAIN, VAMP-BOY?"
"YOU FREAKING ACT LIKE A KID, KID!"
"Hey, hey, you two; quit fighting…" a voice from nowhere demanded.
"Who was that?" Maka asked, trying to get an answer.
Soul let go of Diamond and turned to Maka, "I think that was my big sis…"
Once Maka heard big sis, her eyes filled with fear. She didn't need this. All she really wanted to do was get out of her and read, or something peaceful and calm, not scary and filled with anxiety.
Diamonds started laughing, "No wonder you would be in a place like this, Spirit," He laughed even more, but he silenced when his stomach growled.
"Huh?" Maka said, wondering why that happened.
"Um… I think he's hungry…" Soul responded to Maka.
Diamond replied with a different look on his face, "Yeah, I am hungry, but I can smell some souls that were consumed. Man, I'm jealous…"
"Nice discussion, nii-cha, Dia, and that cute little blonde." Spirit Taker said with a tone of commenting.
She walked out of the darkness and her appearance just showed her how scary she was. She had sapphire-like eyes and black hair with teeth sharper than nails. She wore a head band with the word SPIRIT on it along with 精神, the same word, but in Japanese. She was covered in blood, not hers, but somebody else's
"I wanna taste of your souls, be you friend or foe!" she laughed insanely.
Maka was a bit scared, but she forced Soul to transform into a scythe, not knowing what would happen, still.
Spirit looked at Maka, "Wow, a blonde girl… you lucky kid… I just have my plain black hair…"
Then she smiled insanely, "Then you're first!"
Maka eyes were filled with fear. She tried to run as fast as she could, but Spirit was faster than her.
Diamond just noticed, but he was all the way across the room, trying to run in time so Maka wouldn't be dead.
Diamond didn't save her from the Black Blade that Spirit was. It was Soul.
Just as Spirit was going to slice her guts out, Soul transformed back into his human form,
And he got stabbed pretty badly in the chest, not at his heart, just the chest.
But it was a deep wound, a life-threatening wound.
As he fell closer to the ground, Maka didn't know what to do. This had all happened before, except it wasn't the hit from a person she barely knew, and this wasn't by choice, she had to fight this person.
But why was Soul so protective? She might have never known why.
And now, on the ground lay Soul Eater, lying in his own blood, probably dead, because of his sister.
His very own sister.
The only bit of family he had left.
Diamond wasn't in time to protect Soul. He was off by a millisecond.
Maka started to tear up, remembering the fight with Chrona, déjà vu for her, she wanted to rewind and pretend it never happened,
But, sadly, it did. And it would have happened, no matter what.
