Chapter 6: First night; Medusa's Agent?

A.N.: Alright, I know I need to update the other two stories I'm working on so, but for now let's just focus on this. As usual, my thanks to DragonDude23 for being Beta, 0er0 for allowing me to use Nanami and Weiss in this story and helping with dialogue and scenes and to all you faithful viewers. All of you guys are awesome. And those of you who I PM often thank you. You guys got ideas flowing on many topics. Well, enough thanks for now, I'd like to get this work done.

In the sewer system of Shibuya, all that could be heard was the drops of water hitting small newly formed puddles, mice scurrying around the pipes, wet floor and other things you find on the floor in a sewer. And most obvious: footsteps. The bare skin of her feet making contact with the cool wet floor. The woman was wearing a black body length suit with a hood and not a pair of shoes in sight. She also had twin snake tattoos along her arms, her hair was blond and had yellow irises in her eyes with black pupils. With an unnoticed nick in her left eyebrow. Her name was Medusa Gorgon. Medusa was a crafty witch (Both metaphorically and literally.) and can get anyone to do what she wants simply by her acting. She may be powerful and sinister, but saying she doesn't have a heart is in a way madness. She does love, just in her own dark way.

Medusa was walking along happily. The plan was already doing well thanks to her 'assistance' in her revival in the UG. She was brought back by the power of a Noise sigil. A very high powered one at that, so she was much stronger than before and she wasn't as easy to cut through. She was given the powers of taboo so her tattoos were a bit darker, but kinda unnoticeable. And this was all possible thanks to her 'assistant' or Agent.

She kept walking along until she came up to a big wide area in the sewers. It was a round area with a small square in the middle, big enough for her to sit. Around the middle there were more tunnels leading to various other directions. She leaped to the middle and sat down in a criss-cross fashion.

In a few moments other figures started to walk through the other tunnels. One was a witch like Medusa but she had long silvery hair, unlike Loewe's short and somewhat messy hair (For those of you who looked at the link I gave in previous chapter, you should know how is is.) and a narrow mouth. She also has a black circle on each end of her mouth, kinda looking frog like. She had a thigh length polka dot black dress, black pants and white heels. Also wearing an orange hat on her head with a frog face too. This is Eruka Frog.

Another figure stepped out of the shadows, this time male. The man was a tall and very muscular somewhere around his thirties. Over his left eye, or magic eye has the words 'NO FUTURE' tattooed where his eyebrow should be. He normally wears a black T-shirt with a prison shirt tied around his waist with typical prison pants. He also has messy black hair. His name was Free.

The final one to step out of the shadows was another male. This guy just loves his numbers doesn't he? He had grey hair under a red bandanna and black cap, a black overcoat with a diamond shaped necklace around his neck with ripped grey jeans. This guy was only 18 and he knew all the numbers of pi. This is obviously Sho Minamimoto.

"I'd like to thank you all for coming." Medusa spoke first.

"If you'd please keep this explanation brief and not interfere with my arts&crafts time, then I might help cooperate. At least your Agent said it would be brief and my cooperation necessary."

"Ah, yes. So you've been called here by my temporary Agent. He's a very good one at that. Now let's get to the main topic: I have a few experiments that need a few finishing calculations. As you probably can tell I'm in no position to carry them out due to my 'modifications.'"

"What kind of calculations?" Free asked.

"Well, a few tests to see how much resistance we'll be facing, a few missing variables in my equations and just straight down fighting."

"Well, since you need MY number skills, I'd be glad to help." Said the narcissistic reaper.

"I'm glad."

"Well, I've got no choice..." Eruka sighed. Still being held hostage with the snakes still inside her.

"Since you freed me, I'm willing to follow you." Free stated.

"Thank you. Now Agent, would you be kind enough to show Minamimoto the numbers? And Free, please be ready."

Agent seemed a little too good at explaining things to Minamimoto, "The numbers I have for you come from careful calculation. In exactly one hour from now. Time enough for you to make one of your works of art. Players of Shibuya and students of Death shall arrive with their allies. It's a simple matter of subtraction really. In terms of erasure, you are unmatched among the reapers. Let's just say it's an experiment of sorts. An experiment of resistance. Medusa can fill you on the exact variables I'm sure."

Agent may have been from another plane, but he seemed to have no problems working with Reapers and Witches. Sho had no moral code and Medusa was simply using them. None of them true allies, just allies of interests. Medusa, the Agent and Sho all had one thing in common. Their smiles. They all smiled in a way only liars mastered. Sho seemed to join in the smiling for a moment.

"Allow me to double check your meaning. You want me to test the radians and simplify complications in your little experiment. You want to gauge their power and uses. Fine. No matter. One person's experiment is another's joy. It would be my positive pleasure."

Agent didn't let him elaborate for long, "Tick Tock, Sho."

Sho had another question, "And you. What are you getting out of this? What's your function?"

Medusa crossed her arms cocked her head. "Stay in your own vector. I've no reason to question his motives nor does he have reason to question mine. At the end of the day motivations for actions are meaningless. Motivations only serve as predictions for ones next move."

The Agent chuckled, "And let's just say I like to keep people guessing. Are you ready to begin?"

Shiki was walking along the road in front of the now closed Towa Records. Seemingly defenseless. But Kid with Liz and Patti in their silver gun forms and Neku with Loewe in his new weapon form watching from the rooftops above. "So Kid," Neku asked while they waited, "How come the girls you hang out with and Loewe can transform into weapons?"

"Well, believe it or not, they have part of a witch's magic inside of there Souls. Though only the ability to transform. There human Souls are bound into a weapon along with a Witch's Soul to create transforming humans. Although that's how the first ever hybrids and Loewe were ever made. Nowadays you're just born one."

"That must be cool. Being a weapon. How does it feel?" Neku asked.

"Honestly, not that different." Loewe answered.

"But in order to be able to use the weapon partners' capabilities fully, you must resonate your Souls into harmonious sync." At that word 'harmonious', for sounding similar to his old home, Loewe had fallen silent for a moment before his reflection appeared on the blade and looked down to see where Shiki was.

"But you wouldn't believe the excuses we had to give our parents to let us stay."

"Why?" Patti asked.

"We said we were staying at a friend's house. As long as my mother knows where I am I'm OK."

"What about Shiki?" Kid asked.

"I'm not entirely sure. I've never met her parents... Or parent if she lost one or never had one..." Neku had stated slightly more crestfallen.

"But isn't it a custom for the boyfriend to meet the girlfriend's parents in Japan? Vice versa?"

"W-we're not boyfriend and girlfriend!" Neku said defensively with a light blush on his face.

"Aw. Looks like Neku's in love~." Liz said teasingly.

Neku turned away from his comrades and looked back down to Shiki like Loewe."

She was still standing alone, that much hadn't changed. Until a guy in a ridiculously large overcoat with a strange top hat walked over to Shiki in a sloppy and disoriented fashion. "U-um, who are you?" She tried to sound scared. Which was working because this guy was just freaking creepy.

"...Souls..." He groaned quietly, barely legible.

"I wish I had some help now." Shiki said in a monotonous slightly convincing tone.

"That's our cue." Kid said. He had stopped kneeling and gripped Liz and Patti's weapon form in an upside-down position, which Neku and Loewe were still trying to wrap their heads around. He fired a pink projectile from one of the guns at the guy who was knocked back slightly. The man pulled out a blade from one of the many pockets on his coat and threw it had Kid who nimbly dodged it and landed on the ground in a different battle stance. Neku hopped down in front of Shiki in a battle stance too and Shiki took a stance with mimicking her thanks to her Skull pin.

The guy went into more pockets and pulled out more knives and held them between his fingers and threw one handful at Kid, the other at Neku. Kid dodged nimbly while Neku blocked the attack with the transformed Loewe. Shiki then went ahead and had lunge at the mystery man and sock him in the chest and uppercut while she did a hand then cheering motion. Kid fired a few projectiles at overcoat guy, leaving holes in various spots. Neku dashed forward and finished the guy by a horizontal slice. The man was cut in half and his body dispersed, revealing one of the strange red souls.

Neku sighed, "There are more creeps like that lurking around the city?"

"Unfortunately yes. But we're here to solve the problem."

"Alright then. But I have one question."

"What is it?"

Neku hesitated for the moment, worrying the others, but looked back up and didn't say anything. "Neku?" Shiki asked softly.

"I think I know what's wrong here." Liz spoke up, "You're wondering about your partner aren't you?"

"How'd you know?"

"Well I was too. Though it was a lucky guess. So I'll ask. Loewe, why did you agree to join the fight so easily?"

Loewe remained silent for a moment, lost in his thoughts. 'Should I tell them why... I mean, they are my allies now. No, I won't. They're not my friends or anything similar. I can't now.' He thought. "Well, let's just say it involves a long story I don't wanna talk about right now."

"Oh. Well never mind us asking." Neku said with a bit of sympathy. His and Kid's heads shot into a different direction when a huge source of soul came from said direction.

"That's soul seems... familiar." Kid said, "A mixed soul..."

"That's a soul?!" Neku exclaimed.

"... Oh no..." Kid said with realization dawned on his face. "Let's go."

A.N.: And this should wrap up this chapter. Although I don't think Chapter 7 will be up as quick as this one. Anyway, I'll see you all next time. :)

And before I go, I have terrific news for all of you fans of 'Trails in the Sky'. If you don't wanna know, then just skip this part. But Trails in the Sky Second Chapter (SC) is finally coming out in English. You've read right dear viewer, the sequel is coming out sometime in 2014.
