"TIME TO KICK SOME BUTTS" the three of them said

Soul and Daichi jumped on stage and loosened their ties

Maka walked out from back stage in her prince outfit.

"we're here to save you princess" the three of them grinned

Juliet blushed, of course she would. The crowds started to whisper, Daichi looked over at Taku, Taku smirked and waved goodbye as he walked away. Fuck. Damn him Daichi thought he promised not to hurt anyone.

The people in hoddies got into stance and so did Maka, Soul and Daichi these guys aren't normal, they are part of the group Maka thought

One of the people in hoodies swang his fist at Maka, which was dodged and punched by Soul.

"one down" Soul laughed

"three down" Daichi corrected as he took out another person

"no, four down" Maka said as she kicked one of them in the face "soo... how many more to go?"

"ummmm... 15 – 4 is... –

"11" Daichi interrupted while Soul was trying to work it out.

"thats a lot" Maka sighed

"no worried" Soul grinned showing his sharp teeth "we will take them all down just like the old day, isn't that right Daichi and Romeo"

"eh? Romeo?" Maka asked

"your still in the play" Daichi laughed

"oh right, i am here to save you princess" Maka said in her prince voice as she did a back kick which hit another person in the face "10 more to go"

"8 more to go" Soul said as the smashed two person's head together

"5 more" Daichi laughed as he took out another three "they are easy"

"i know" Soul laughed

"i thought these newbies were strong, but without us, they are shit, no wonder why he wants me back" Maka giggled

Within another 1 minute, not even one minute... they were all wiped out. Maka, Soul and Daichi did not even break a sweat , the audience cheered.

"romeo, oh romeo. We now know your true strength and passion, we shall leave the princess in your care" Daichi and Soul bowed and left the stage. And this way, the play continued like it was supposed to. But, something was missing. Tsubaki...


"who are you?" Tsubaki yelled after the people in hoodies

They stopped and grinned. "didn't Maka tell you?"

"w-w-what? M-M-Maka? Why do you know Maka?"

"looks like she did not tell you, i feel bad for you... let me tell you something. DON"T. HANG. AROUND. HER. You will die one day if you do, she is not normal."

"SHUT UP, are you going to tell me why you know Maka or not?"

"did you just tell us to shut up?" They charged at Tsubaki

"you disgust me" Tsubaki sniggered, she has snapped

Tsaubaki against 15, Tsubaki punched and kicked them wildly, they are losing one by one.

"so, it's only you left huh?" Tsubaki laughed as she wiped her sweat, She ran towards the guy and punched him in the stomach, not knowing that there is another guy behind her holding a knife.

What is this? It hurts, it's inside my back, it's dripping? It's warm... and red...

Tsubaki fell to the floor and the guy ran away... Black Star who walked by stared in horror

"TSUBAKI" he screamed "fuck, who did this?"

He hurriedly carried her to the hospital and told Maka, Soul, Daichi, Kid, Liz and Patti what has happened.


"TSUBAKI" Maka yelled as she ran into the room "who did this to you?"

Everyone crowded around Tsubaki, Tsubaki smile sweetly and said "can i please talk to Maka alone?"

They all left the room except Maka just like Tsubaki requested.

Maka looked at Tsubaki.

"there is a lot of things we don't know about you right? Maka." Tsubaki started

Maka sighed... "so it is them after all right? The people in hoodies"

"yeah, so... tell me about it, isn't it about time?"

"why didn't you ask them?"

"it's better to hear it from you" i did ask, they just didn't answer properly...

Maka smiled, "yeah, thanks, sooo... it all started like this, me, Daichi and Soul were all childhood friends. Shiki, a friend we met in primary school was always bullied, we stood up for him and how should i say this? We spoiled him too much, every time he gets bullied we would always beat them up for him, we taught him how to fight and then he went a little overboard... he wanted to start a gang cause he wanted to prove that he is strong now, we obviously are part of the gang. Everything went well, we reached the top of the ladder and people of our kinds respected us but then a new gang showed up and on the day we were suppose to raid that gang, he betrayed us. He betrayed me, more like it. We had an argument just before the battle and when the time was critical he just left... so did Soul and Daichi"

Maka lifted up her shirt, on her back was a big scar "this, was after they left, i got stabbed" Maka continued "and sooo... i left the group, i know that Soul and Daichi are not really at fault, they just wanted to protect me. Shiki told them "leave Maka here, she will survive. If we stay here any longer then she will die as well as the rest of us", at first they didn't agree to it but then the situation got worse, our people were defeated badly and Shiki told them to call for help and so they did, not knowing that Shiki planned to abandon me all along"

Tsubaki looked shocked.

"sooo... thats the end of the story, are you scared of me?" Maka laughed

Tsubaki shook her head and began to cry, she reached out and hugged Maka, "i'm sorry" Tsubaki sobbed "i'm sorry for doubting you"

"you shouldn't be, i deceived you" Maka said trying to hold back her tears

"i should have known better, you didn't deceive us, we just never asked. Remember when you first came to school? On the first day you told all of us "hi, my name is Maka, nice to meet you all, oh and i hope to make friends do fun things, i will try my best to study and live my life to the fullest" i thought you were pretty funny ever since then but what was really funny was the next day, you fell asleep during homeroom. We all laughed and said "didn't she say she will study?" later on that day you told us "i said that but... if i did study then it will be boring and if it is boring then i am not living my life to the fullest" do you remember that?"

Maka cried, "shut up, that was embarrassing"

Not soon later, Tsubaki went to sleep and Maka walked out of the room. She saw Dachi and Soul eavesdropping

"what the hell are you doing?" Maka yelled

"you know? Like um... waiting?" They both tried to hide the fact that they over heard to whole conversation.

Maka didn't look convinced

"were sorry..." they both apologized

"no worries, it was in the past, i hardly care cause i still have a life to get on with" Maka laughed "whats important is how did Shiki know about the play? Daichi didn't tell him... so how did he know?"

"how did you know Daichi didn't tell him?" Soul asked

"oh... i have been stalking Daichi for the past few weeks and he didn't see Shiki even once" Maka replied

"you stalked me? WHAT?" Daichi sighed... "you know Taku?"

"yeah" Maka replied "that fugly dude, what about him?"

"he is Shiki" Daichi answered

"what?... Shiki is ugly now?"

"NO. It was a facade, he has like 20 of them"

Maka grinned "are you betraying him now?"

"yeah... he broke the promise" Daichi laughed

"is the place still the same?" Maka asked

"the hideout?" Daichi replied

"yeah"

"yup, still at the usual place"

"let's go then, i'm going to straight things out once and for all" Maka smirked "he dared to stab Tsubaki..."

"YEAH, LETS GO" both Daichi and Soul yelled
