Symbiotic Insanity

Chapter 2
A CroMa Fanfic

It's Morning yet again in Death City; the sun is smiling a big-toothed-smile and laughing cryptically. Crona is lying down in a moderately comfy bed, underneath white sheets. It was almost as if he was in his own bed, but he wasn't. He could tell it wasn't, because he could feel something wrapped around his head, and he wasn't wearing a T-shirt and boxer shorts. No, instead it felt like he was wearing something made of paper, it was about the same size as his robe, but it had short sleeves, not long sleeves, and he couldn't help but feeling that there was almost nothing on his back. He didn't know what he was wearing, or if he could deal with it. He also noticed that he was leaning back on stacked up pillows, something Crona did not do when he slept.
Crona grunted as he slowly awoke, at that moment, he became aware that there had been another presence in the room besides his own, because he heard a slight gasp, a chair fall over, a door burst open, the door smash against the wall, and someone talking hurriedly, but also excitedly. He couldn't figure out what the person was saying, because he was still in a daze. All he could see was darkness. Suddenly, he heard big horde of footsteps enter the room, some louder than the others, a few quicker, yet quieter than the others. Then he felt two hands to touch his head, and tug on whatever was wrapped around his head and then one-by-one, he regained his vision in stripes, until he could see completely, however, his vision was very blurry. His vision started to regulate, and become less blurry. After a minute or so, his vision went back to normal, and he found out that he was staring at his own chest. As soon as he realized this, he felt someone leap off the floor, and land on his abdomen; he looked up and was greeted with a round face, with seemingly-shut-eyes, and a huge closed-mouth-smile, with the two front teeth poking out from under the top lip. He also noticed that this person was rather short; he could feel this person not kneeling, but standing on his abdomen, and leaning forward. He noticed that this person was wearing a dress that started at the neck, went over their shoulders, and down to their feet, with black and white, vertical stripes. This person was also wearing a witch's hat that was shaped like the upper half of a mouse's head. The front of the hat stuck out and was shaped like the snout of a mouse; there were two big fake eyes, on the sides of the snout, and the right and left sides of the rim of the hat, were folded up to look like big mouse ears. The last thing Crona noticed was a blue button pinned to this person's dress, and in black numbering, it read "# 1". Once Crona was finished analyzing this person, he immediately new he who it was.
"Hey there, Mizune" Crona chimed, and in return, Mizune chimed a happy
"Chi."
As Mizune said that, Crona heard 4 other "Chi's". Crona then looked to his left, down at the floor, and saw the other 4 Mizune sisters, standing in a line, side-by-side, with the exact same attire as the Mizune sister on his abdomen, except their buttons, in order from left to right "2, 3, 4, 5". The reason the Mizune sisters wore buttons with numbers on them, is so they could be told apart. However, they were all called "Mizune", except for when they needed to talk to a certain one, then they would say something like "Mizune #2" or whichever number was on their button.
"Hey Mizune Sisters" Crona chimed, to which all at once, the Mizune Sisters responded with a delighted
"Chi."
Mizune #1, hopped off Crona's abdomen and on to the floor, then stood in line with her sisters, right next to Mizune #2. Crona then looked forward, and from left to right, saw Free, Eruka, Stein, Marie, Soul, Blair, Liz, Patti, Kid, and Maka. Free was wearing a navy-blue, T-shirt, blue jeans, and a read hoodie, tied around his waste by the sleeves. Eruka was wearing an Orange witches hat, on top of the frosty, blue hair on her head, the fabric was folded in such a way, that the base of the hat looked like the jaw of a frog, and two big fake eyes, with a single black horizontal line going across the white eye, were placed just on the right and left of the middle of the hat. Her she wore an overalls-like-dress, which was black with white Polk-a-dots all over it, with no sleeves. Under the dress, she wore a gray long-sleeved-shirt, and black jeans. Stein was wearing a white lab coat, with stitches randomly located all over the coat. Underneath the lab coat, he wore a gray sweater, with a red stripe going around the abdomen, and black jeans. Marie was wearing a black long-sleeved-V-neck-shirt, a black dress for pants, with two yellow stripes going down the sides, and a black eye patch, going over her right eye, with a yellow lightning bolt on the front of it. Soul was wearing a black denim jacket, with a white T-shirt underneath it, and blue jeans. Blair was wearing the same black tank-top, and the same black shorts, the only thing that was new, was that she was now wearing black high-heels. Liz was wearing a white cowgirl hat, with a blue band going around the base of the hat, a light blue denim jacket, with a white T-shirt underneath it, blue jeans, and white high-heels. Patti was wearing a black shirt, with a cartoon skull on it, blue jeans, and white and black tennis shoes. Kid was wearing a black tux, with a white dress shirt underneath, a black tie, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. Maka was wearing the same black hoodie, the same yellow, V-neck Shirt underneath it, the same read jeans, and the same green and yellow tennis shoes. They were all smiling, both happy and relieved to see Crona awake. Crona smiled in return and chimed
"Hey guys."
Patti shot forward, and grabbed hold of the foot of the bed and leaned forward as far as she could, and happily shouted
"HI CRONA! Hey Crona, look, look." Patti ran to the right of the crowded white room, with green floor tiles, grabbed the blue curtains in front of the big wide window in the room, and yanked them open, revealing the night sky, and the Moon laughing evilly, with a giant smile, with blood seeping out from between the teeth. Patti pointed at the sky, and happily shouted
"Look Crona! The 'Restless Star' is gone!"
Crona looked at the alarm clock on the right side of his bed, which read "7:30 PM"; he then looked at Patti with his eyes half-shut, and said with a slightly irritated tone
"I could kinda tell, considering that it smashed me head-first into the pavement about 8 hours ago."
"Huh? Oh…he doesn't know" Patti said with a sad tone. Suddenly everyone looked a little sad, because of what Crona didn't know. Crona noticed that they all looked sad, and was confused. He finally asked curiously
"What's wrong guys? Is it something I said, or something I did?"
Liz stepped forward and said
"Crona, you had us all worried sick." Crona look confused, Soul noticed and stepped forward and said
"Liz wasn't exactly clear on that, but, uhhh, dude, what she means is that it wasn't 8 hours ago…It was two weeks ago, Crona man, you've been in a coma for two weeks, and we were worried as to when you would be waking up." A look of shock came over Crona's face, and he shouted
"What? Two Weeks?"
At that moment, Stein stepped forward and said
"Yes Crona, two whole weeks, being the only eligible doctor in this room, I asked to be assigned to this room, I was assigned to keep note of your condition, and watch over you, till you woke up, and everyone here waited the majority of the day, in case you woke up." Crona looked around, and then asked curiously
"Where's Tsubaki and Black Star?" To which Stein responded, while turning the screw in his head
"They aren't here, they couldn't help it, they were assigned a sudden mission, they'll be back later."
Crona, content with the answer he was given, then asked
"So…can I leave now?" Marie then said
"Whoa Crona, slowdown, you just woke up, give it a few hours, in fact, I think we should all leave for a bit and let Crona rest." Everyone agreed and left. Soon after that, Crona felt Ragnarok approaching, and leaned forward, Ragnarok then bursted from Crona's back. Ragnarok then said with pain in his voice
"Just gotta say" he turned around, and looked at the pillow, but Crona didn't know what he was looking at, then Ragnarok said with pain still in his voice
"Nice ass" he then receded into Crona's back, with a sense of accomplishment, for making Crona feel uncomfortable in his hospital gown, knowing that Crona hates to be that nude. Crona then leans back on his stacked up pillows, closes his eyes, and falls asleep.
20 minutes later, he suddenly wakes up when he hears
"Pssst, hey, you awake?"
Crona then woke up, and looked around, but couldn't see anyone, then said with a little bit of fear in his voice
"I am now, but who and where are you?"
The voice said back to Crona
"Where am I?"
Then as soon as the voice said that, a big black string of slime, that grew bigger as it went along, and at the tip of the string of slime, a head, that sort of resembled a snake with no eyes, was staring him in the face, with a head a size or two bigger than Crona's, and very sharp, diamond-shaped teeth, bulged at the surface, so that it looked like it had no lips, only the giant-white-very-sharp-teeth, it then chimed
"I'm in your ear silly." Crona had a look of shock and terror mixed together spread across his face, too terrified to scream. He then stuttered with ultimate terror in his voice
"W-w-who a-are y-you?" Crona was shaking ferociously; he was so terrified of the creature coming out of his ear. The creature then responded
"First things first, I'm gonna move somewhere else in here, it's really crowded up here." The creature then went back in Crona's right ear, and out came a tiny black, slimy substance, and crawled from Crona's ear, over Crona's right shoulder, and sank into Crona's chest, where Ragnarok, and his soul was, then shot back out and stared Crona in the face again, then chimed
"Ah, much better, more room in here, as for who I am, I am from the race now as the symbiote, and you are my new host, and according to the rules of my race, the host decides my name. So come on, what is my name?"
"Wh-what." Crona stuttered nervously. To which the creature chimed anxiously
"I said to give me a name. What is my name?" Crona then stuttered very nervously
"H-h-hold on there buddy, I don't-" The creature then cut him off right there, and chimed
"Ooooo, Buddy, I like it, Ok, my name is Buddy!" Crona stuttered nervously
"O-ok." The Creature started rocking his string-like-body left and right, happily dancing to his new name. He then chimed
"Oooooh, I really LOVE that name, not too simple, but not too complicated, another word for friend, oh we're going to be the best of friends you and I. I'm sorry but I didn't get your name, your name, what is your name?" Crona then stuttered very nervously
"C-Crona." To which Buddy chimed
"Well Crona, you have no idea how lucky you are that my vessel collided with you!" Crona then stuttered less nervously, slowly deciding that Buddy really was a friend
"Y-you call getting my head smashed into the Earth by a falling meteorite, Luck?" Buddy then chimed
"No, no, not that part, the fact that I bonded to you, I can do all sorts of amazing things for the both of us. As a matter of fact, did you know that your injuries were so severe before the medics got there, that you would have been a coma for 6 months to a year? Well I can make the body heal at very, very, high speed, even my own, so before the medics got there, I fixed most of the broken bones and blood vessels in your head, and repaired the damage to any areas of flesh. In fact, you could have been out of here the next day, but if I brought you out of your coma too early, it would've hurt like hell, and people would've been too suspicious as to how you healed from an accident like that so quickly. It's what friends do for one another." Crona, deciding he was a friend, was able to ask normally
"But if you're race is that perfect, why did you need to bond with a host?" Buddy then said
"As perfect as we may seem, we are actually imperfect, we lack the necessary resources for certain elements, once we leave our planet, of which the rock provided the necessary elements, so when we immigrate to another planet, we need a host, a living being to provide those elements, do you understand now?" Crona then responded calmly
"Yes, I understand now" To this, Buddy chimed
"Alright! So just go back to sleep now, time flies when you sleep, and your friends will be back to take us to your living quarters, in a couple hours. So for now, I'm just gonna chilax in your chest." Buddy then recedes into Crona's chest, and is now out of sight. Crona notices that, just like when Ragnarok does it, when Buddy emerges from his body, he leaves the clothing intact, so there was no unexplainable hole in the chest of his hospital gown. Crona then said
"Well, that's one of the strangest things anyone has ever said to me, so I'm gonna go to sleep now, but no eating anything in there, or poisoning anything, or anything damaging." Buddy then responded, to which Crona heard in his mind
"Right, like I'm going to kill my new friend, host, and essentially, my life-line." Crona then responded nervously
"O-okay then" Crona then leans back on his stacked up pillows and falls asleep.
