Chapter 10
And of course, i was right. At the school, in cages, were the others. Blackstar and Patty were in one, Liz and Tsubaki were in another, and Maka had her own. Kid was on top of the cages, next to Luna. Standing on either sides of the cages were Free and Eruka Frog. "Well, look who desided to show up!" Luna cried. She walked around Kid, who was bound by enchanted strands of... was that seaweed? Anyways, he was bound.
"Good to see your alive Jenifer. Oh, and look! Reggie's come out of his shell to play! Finally gotten over it?" Luna taunted, making Reggie linch. "Whats she talking about?" I asked, looking up at Reggie from the reflection of one of the blades. (I was in twin blade form! I really like that one!)
"The reason im a Meister instead of a Siren, is because i dont have any magic. At least, not any witch magic. You have to be born with it. So, i was disowned. Luna tried to stick up for me, but got tired of trying. Lord Death took me in, and found i had soul waves instead of magic." Reggie explained. "I was taunted and bullied as a child for not being able to do the simplest things. They went as far as attacking me with magic, and beating me up. Luna would save me from that, but nothing else." Reggie looked up at his sister.
"I would never let another witch hurt you and get away with it." Luna's face softened for a moment. But only a moment.
"Eruka Frog, Free." Luna commanded, and they jumped into action. Free transformed into his werewolf form, and Eruka Frog summoned giant frog beasts. Free and Eruka Frog lept into battle at the same time, only to be struk down by Stein, weilding Spirit.
"Go. Save the others." Spirit said boredly, while litting a cigarete. Reggie nodded, and charged the cages. We got to the first cage with Blackstar and Patty in them, breaking the lock and freeing them, when we were attacked.
Reggie turned and we were face to face with an old enemy of mine. "Britney?" I gasped, not believing what i was seeing. Britney was here, in Death city. She was wearing a cowboy hat, booty shorts, a long sleaved plaide shirt that was cut and tyed below the bust, and was holding a glowing whip. She was sitting on the middle red tip that were on the school.
"Dean?" Patty and Liz gasped at the same time. And sure enough, it was Dean.
"Britney, what are you doing here?" I asked, not believing the scene that was unfolding in front of my eyes. "Revenge." She said with such venom, and a sneer and her face.
She lashed out at Reggie, but he jumped back just in time. Britney jumped down with such force right where we were, that it created a crater. Reggie got ready, not taking his eyes off of the new enemy.
Quick as a snake, Britney turned around and shot Dean at us faster then we could blink. She caught Reggie by his wrist, and me by the hilt of my left blade. I transformed into a single blade, that Dean didnt have a hold of.
Reggie wiggled out of the whip, and sliced at Britney. She dodged everything Reggie threw at her. "Damn." Reggie muttered, then i turned into a hand gun. He smiled, then started blasting at Britney.
She could avoid one or two, but not when we shot multiple shots. We hit her with our 4th shot, then our 5th. And when we were finished with her, she rolled hard, smoking and clothes with holes all in em.
That was when the singing started.
Before i could warn Reggie, he was already under. He had no magic to defend himself. No defense against being controled. I transformed back to my human form, and jumped away from him. I looked to the others, and they had been in battle.
Maka had cuts and bruises, a black eye and a finger going the wrong way. Tsubaki's clothes were smoldering and holded, revealing a little too much. She was bruised all over, and unconscious.
Liz had a gash in her head, several cuts and a broken nose. Patty just looked like she had been in a fight, and lost. It was that bad.
The guys were already under Luna's spell, their wounds healing as the magic consumed them. "Just a little closer..." Luna muttered, and then her plan hit me. "NOOOOO!" I cried out, but it was too late.
Kid wasnt trapped. He was waiting. He was already under her spell, and waiting to be given orders. "Now." Luna nodded at Kid, and he exploded.
I blacked out, and that was long enough.
When i woke up, it looked exactly like my visison. The school was in ruins, my friends injured and unconscious. Death on a chain. Kid in the middle of it all.
"Kid?" I asked, getting up from the debri that was on me. His head whiped around instantly and looked at me.
"Kid? Please, this isnt you! Snap out of it!" I pleaded, struggling to stand. His face looked torn. He was fighting.
"Thats it! Fight her! She doesnt control you! No one does!" I explained, getting closer and closer to him. I think he was winning, because he started to walk towards me. "Jenifer?" He asked, as if in a misty room.
"Yes, its me! Come back to me Kid!" I pleaded, and then we were face to face. I reached out to grab his arm, and the red in his eyes started to slip away.
"Kid? What are you doing?" Luna asked, walking over to us. She was pulling Death on her chain, as if her were a dog and she was the human. Kid turned around to look at Luna, than back to me.
"You... dont control... me!" Kid managed to get out. Luna laughed. "Of course i do! And all i have to do is sing." Luna admitted with an evil smile.
I sighed. "Ive had enough of this." I said in a bored tone. I walked over to Luna, and then punched her in the face. Kid and Luna looked at me in shock.
"Did you just..." Luna asked. I nodded. Then i saw something in Luna's face that i had never seen before. Rage. Utter, blind rage.
She started to sing, rising up onto a broom so i couldnt reach her. She sung with fury, making Kids face change. Kid said one word before i lost him. "Run."
So i did the logical thing. The thing that anyone would do in a time like that. I ran.
I could hear Kid running behind me, slicing through the air. "Is this really what you want to do?" I asked, not bothering to look back. "You've hurt your friends. Your family. Everyone you love." I screamed at him, tears in my eyes as i thought about all the horror that happened to my friends.
I started to slow down. Not the best idea. Kid grabbed me from behind, kneed me with all his strength, then threw me. I kinda bounced and rolled at the same time down the road as Kid and Luna followed.
"I see you've made your choice." I said as he grabbed me by my throat, lifting me into the air. "Any last words?" Luna asked, lowering herself down to watch Kid kill me. This was it. Kid was really going to do it.
"Last words?" I asked, looking at Kid. "My last words are..." I thought about what i was going to say to Kid. Then it hit me.
"My last words are to Kid." Kid looked at me suspiciously. "Kid... I love you." I finally admitted. Through all of this, i never had the courage to say it until i was at deaths door. Literally.
I looked down at Kid to see what expressions were on his face. Hate. Evil. Smugness. Nothing. This is what i expected. But, i was greeted with something better. A smile. Kid lowered me down to my feet, then wrapped me in a hug.
"WHAT!?" Luna shrieked, looking from me to Kid. "No, this cant be happening!" Luna really looked like she was gonna loose it. She started singing again, but no matter how much she did, she wasn't getting my Kid back.
