Soul eater witches: The next generation, Alex and Eric
Medusa is gonna' KILL me if I'm late again! Thought Alex. Alex was a girl- a witch - that looked very much like Medusa, her mother. At least the same hair style* and body build. She ran through the forest, hurrying to return home. Her black hair fell in her face, but that was OK with her. There was always hair in her face, and it always covered her left eye. And only Alex and Medusa knew why. Her eye was red, while the other one was the same color as Medusa's eyes, amber. And being the superstitious witch she was, she believed that if her eye wasn't covered it would bring disaster. She didn't want to hurt the people around her.
When she finally arrived at home, Eric was waiting for her. Eric was the son of Eruka Frog and Free Wolf, and he cared deeply for Alex. He had short, gray hair, and his bangs were rimmed with black, it was his real hair color too.
"Your late, Alex. Its way past curfew!" he said fiercely.
"Screw curfews, I have Black Blood!" Alex retorted.
Eric sighed. "What am I gonna' tell Lady Medusa? She'll be wondering where you were."
"Eric, just tell Medusa I was upstairs sleeping. OK?" she ordered him.
"Fine." Eric let out a breathy sigh.
Alex than chanted "Naku Snaku Cobra Cobabra Transporting Arrow*." And was surrounded by Vector arrows in a matter of seconds and then disappeared.
I could have done that for her… Eric thought to himself, slightly annoyed with himself.
Moments later, Medusa walked in, rather panicked, exclaiming she couldn't find Alex anywhere. Eric then asked her if she checked Alex's room, saying that the last time he saw her, she was taking a nap. Just as Medusa turned to face the stairs, Alex walked down. Her acting was very convincing. She was acting groggy and her hair was messed up like it wasn't brushed that day. Her clothes were wrinkled, too.
"Alex, you need to come to self-defense training." Medusa began, relieved.
"What is more defensive than Black Blood?" Alex asked Medusa questioningly. Unlike her sister, Chrona, Alex had advanced black blood. Every time she was cut or hurt, the blood that seeped out of the wound would automatically slide back in and her skin would quickly heal afterward. She had the defensive version of Black Blood, while Chrona had the offensive version. The original.
"You've got a point about that, Alex. But what if you didn't have Black Blood? What if you somehow lose it, or it is deactivated? You'll need to know at least a little bit of self-defense." Eric said calmly.
"Thank you Eric!" Medusa praised. She then turned to Alex. "He knows what he's talking about!"
"Both of you are too overprotective. I will be fine, I promise." Alex told them.
A/N *Yes, Alex looks much like medusa, but the hair in front of her ears is not long enough to be braided.
*Alex, being part of the new generation of witches, she also has new attacks and spells, so... yeah...
