"Nonononono." A brown haired witch runs through the forest. She knows the two witch hunters are right on her. She ran into them at the worse possible time. She had just finished practicing her strongest spell yet...Of course she had to kill humans to get there. There had to be sacrifices. How is she ever going to make it up the ladder in the council if all she can do is measly spells.
Yet after everything she did, she wasn't able to do the spell and had a rebound. Not only that but it alerted the witch hunters to her presence. They're everywhere like cockroaches.
She holds her injured hand against her chest, trying to think of her options. If this keeps up the witch hunters will catch up with her. She can't use any of her magic. She needs a miracle.
The witch skids to a stop when she sees her. Her miracle. There's another witch here. Though it's faint, she couldn't mistake that glow in her green eyes. She stands there under the moon light, her blonde hair brushing against her bare shoulders, and this witch can't help feel that an angel has been sent.
"You must help me! Two witch hunters are chasing me and I'm out of magic! Please get us out of here!" The witch takes steps towards her.
The blonde witch tilts her head as if she didn't understand what she said. But then her lips start to turn into a smile. Not one of kindness or reassurance. She knows that smile all too well. A smile filled with malice.
"What-" In the witch's panic she didn't get a good look at this girl. She isn't dressed like a witch should. Dressed in only a tank top and shorts...gripping a scythe in her right hand. It isn't unheard of that a witch would carry around a weapon and if she didn't hear the rumors she might not think anything of it.
The rumors of the witch that became a witch hunter. A witch that is actively hunting her own kind.
Dread fills her heart as she takes steps back away from this girl. She starts to laugh.
"What's wrong? Don't you need help?" She asks taking steps closer.
"Are you...Are you seriously hunting our kind?" This blonde witch just laughs more. "How...why?...The rumors are true! I need to tell the others-"
"Sorry but this is where you die." She's much faster than she thought. That's all she can think before the scythe buries it's blade in her stomach. It slices through her with ease. The witch falls to her side. Her body convulsing in shock. She tries to get up but finds she can't. She glances down at her legs and freezes.
Her lower half is separated from her body. Blood is just pouring out of her. The shock of it all numbs the pain. She looks up at this traitor, wishing for all her heart that she has enough magic to kill her-
The scythe swings down again. And it's over.
"Man I have to say, ever since I became a witch these hunts have been a lot easier." Maka cracks her back, waiting for the Mayor and Kid to pop up. They've been using this plan and it works like a charm. Kid and the Mayor attempt to kill the witch. If she starts running, Maka runs ahead to cut them off. The witches seem to think she'll help so they come right for her. Then Maka kills them. This one said something interesting though.
"Good work." The Mayor hums, bringing the lighter fluid.
"Mission successful." Kid rushes over towards her, he's smiling as he holds out a bag of some kind of plant. "I found this too. With this you should have all the ingredients to try to make that stomach ache potion."
"Nice!...Though it is like the lamest potion in the book."
"It should be the easiest too! We can finally put that cauldron to work." Kid is so excited about it. Maka can't help smiling. Kid wants to try his hand at magic. Potions are cool and all but Maka knows she needs more spells to get stronger. The Mayor sent out a request for any spell books that the organization has but they haven't got any yet.
It's been about two weeks since the day she was locked up by the Mayor. She's been training most of these days. Training to be a witch hunter in the morning. Training to be a witch in the evening. School work smashed in between and witch hunts. There's no time to do anything else. She gets why she has to work so hard. Medusa could attack at any time but still...She wishes she had some energy at the end of the day. She's starting to get a bit frustrated. She doesn't know if Kid is scared to get her pregnant or if he just doesn't want to strain her body but he hasn't started anything either. Maka is too tired to start it and Kid doesn't act.
She might have to force herself to have enough energy. She's getting aggressive again in these hunts. She's not even trying to go for the wrists or their head first. She loves chopping them up too much. This one though-
"Oh yeah." Maka watches the Mayor set fire to the witch. "She said something that caught my attention. When she realized I was going to kill her, she said something along the lines of 'so the rumors are true'."
"It musts be spreading that there's a witch working with the witch hunters. I figured this would happen but not so soon." The Mayor thinks. "Right now it's still a rumor but soon the witches should be more wary of witches they find while witch hunters are around. If that rumor is spreading to the witches it will soon make it to witch hunters. I wanted to wait but I might have to make the announcement soon."
"How are you going to announce it?" Kid stomps the witch's ashes.
"Hmm. Maybe I could throw a big party. Butter them up and then at the end be like 'oh and here's Maka. Our first witch member. Say hello.'-"
"That's a terrible idea! What if they turn into an angry mob?"
"I'd rather not be in a room with a bunch of pissed off witch hunters."
"Well I could do it the corporate way. I could send out a mass email and just say it plainly. I suppose who is mad is going to be mad but it's not like they can complain. I even got approval from the government."
"Excuse me what?" Maka blinks.
"Ah we haven't gotten to that conversation yet." The Mayor sticks out his tongue. "...I kind of made this organization with the only intention of killing witches and making the world a safer place. After awhile I was approached by a government official. They are well aware of witches and the threat they pose. They have their own...supernatural branch? It's top secret. Long story short, They give witch hunters money monthly for being witch hunters. All my members are getting decent checks for just being witch hunters. Of course there are some that just take that money and don't do anything but I'm quick to find out. Everyone has to pull their weight-"
"Wait you guys are getting paid?" Maka looks between Kid and the Mayor. "Where's my money?"
Kid opens his mouth but the Mayor cuts him off. "I'm not done with my story! I'm getting to that! Now when you officially became a witch hunter I had to resister you. Witch hunters have to work for a month at least before getting paid, Now I also had to go back and report to the government that it just so happens you are a witch. A witch that wants to continue to be a witch hunter. It was looking pretty dicey but I assured that you would be my responsibility. Now they're excited to see what you'll turn into. There's scientists that want to get their hands on you. Of course we wont' let them." The Mayor says when Kid looks upset. "They even want you to get stronger as a witch! A witch on the government's side is a good tool to have."
"Maka isn't a tool father."
"We know that but you know how the government is son. It's a good thing that they accept her. That means you have protection. We don't have to worry about government officials at my door trying to kill you. And you'll get paid-"
"Where is my money?"
"In all good time Maka! Now what was I saying? Oh yes. The organization. Even with the government backing you I know a lot of my members wont' accept this. I'll try holding off on saying anything for the time being but if I start getting calls and emails wondering about a rumor of a witch joining our ranks...I'll have to come clean. I wanted you to be a bit stronger as a hunter and witch before then but these rumors are spreading like wild fire."
"Okay. I get all that but what I don't' get is...My money?"
"Anddddd here's the part with your money!" The Mayor cheers. "I spent it all on that cauldron and equipment for that room-"
"You what?! That was suppose to be a peace token-"
"Hey now I gave you another one of my rooms and did the research to make sure it was made correctly and had it delivered and made sure you had all the things you need for it. I think we're even. Besides what do you need money for anyway? Just think about it as going towards your rent and witch training fees~"
"Wait so you're going to keep taking my money?! What the hell! I thought I was living there for free-"
"Now Maka you are an adult and a witch. Your money is being put to good use. It's all coming back to you in a way. I also need a little something don't I for all my hard work?" He's smiling too much. "The government put me in charge of you so I also get your money."
"Aggggh!" Maka kind of gets it but it pisses her off. "You greedy man. Taking a poor girls money-"
"You are a witch aren't you? Why don't you make us a money tree or something? Then I wouldn't have to take yours~"
"That's not even a thing!" Maka glares. "...Right?"
"Father stop teasing her." Kid shakes his head. "Maka don't worry about that money. We can share my earnings."
"You shouldn't have to do that Kid." Maka grumbles. "Ugh I'm in a bad mood now-"
"A perfect mood for practicing your spells yes? Because of this hunt you haven't gotten to use your spells today."
"It's like eleven at night right now."
"You need to practice every day so get stronger. We'll do it right here. This is our territory so we shouldn't have to worry about another witch hunter being out and about."
"Are you not feeling up to it?" Kid asks. Maka sighs.
"No...I can do it." She's just going to be too tired to fuck. Kid hands her that spell book. He's been carrying it around with him. Maka has been doing this training every day. She uses her magic till she almost rebounds. She has noticed that she's starting to be able to do more magic. It's such a slow process though.
"Why don't you try the spell shockwave?" The Mayor asks. " Have you gained enough power for that yet?"
"...I think I might have enough."
"Don't push it if you don't." Kid flips it to the shock page. "This spell requires your target to touch you or for you to be touching your target. It's a close range attack. It could be useful if something grabs you...or if you're blocking an attack. It should connect."
"Alright. You should step back Kid." He does. Maka closes her eyes, she moves her fingers, feeling the magic gather. She doesn't know for sure if this will be too much but she feels like it's a safe bet. "ShockWave!" Her body glows yellow and sparks. She can't hold it long. She quickly stops the spell, sweat falling down her face. Any longer and she would have had a rebound.
"That was great Maka! You did a new spell." Kid is thrilled.
"It looks like that's your limit though. From now on I think you should do this spell. We can see progress that way."
"Yeah...Can we go home now? I feel like I'm going to pass-" She gets dizzy. Kid is quick to catch her.
"I'll carry you to the car."
"I don't-" Kid picks her up, cradling her against his chest. "Kid I can walk." Maka pouts.
"Your legs are about to give out on you. You worked hard today. Let me do this much for you at least."
"You worked just as hard." Maka grumbles. Kid did everything she did except for the witch training.
"I enjoy carrying you so let me." Kid lays his forehead against hers. She knows there's no winning. Not that she's really upset about it. She is exhausted. It just makes her feel weak when Kid has to carry her.
He's just as tired. Yet he carries her to the car like she's nothing. She needs to get stronger faster so he doesn't have to worry so much. When he gets like this Maka can't do anything. When they get home, Kid is already picking her up to carry her up the stairs.
"Do you want me to help you shower?" Kid asks.
Maka blinks. Now this is different. She's usually tired but not tired enough that she needs help showering. Because of that new spell she almost rebounded. She's more exhausted than she usually is. She can use this. Kid's concern...she can use that.
"Yes I need your help in the shower." Maka puts her head in his neck, grinning from ear to ear. Finally. She doesn't care if she's falling over herself. She is going to get something out of this.
"Of course." Kid walks into the bathroom only setting her down to start the shower. He gets a good temperature before turning to her. "Are you sure you're okay with a shower? Or would you rather a bath so you can sit-"
"A shower is fine." Maka takes off her clothes before getting in. She does get a little dizzy but she pushes through it. Kid comes in after he undresses.
"Don't move so fast. Here let me wash-"
"Actually let me wash you first." Maka grabs the soap before he can.
"Oh? But-"
"Nope I'm fine to do this so I am. Then you can wash me up." She lathers her hands before running them over his chest. He lets her scrub him. Usually when they're just washing each other they don't touch anything too intimate. It's always about showering and nothing else...well except for that one time but that was a special instance.
"M-Maka I can get that." Kid tenses up when Maka starts touching his soft dick.
"Nah I got to scrub everything right?" She reaches under fondling his balls.
If he had any other complaints he doesn't speak them. It doesn't take long before his cock hardens in her hand. She lets go of him, moving so the water and wash him off. "Now it's my turn."
Kid's face is flushed but he gets to work scrubbing her. He started at her stomach and then worked his way up to her breasts. She leans her body against his, pressing her lips against his. He groans and just like she wanted he starts pinching her nipples, his breathing becoming uneven.
"Kid it's been too long. I can barely move but I want you to fuck me." Maka sees how his eyes have darken. "I've been wanting this the whole time...are you scared to fuck me?" She licks his lips " Am I the evil witch trying to seduce the handsome witch hunter? I'm aching for your cock-"
She gasps when Kid pushes her against the shower wall. He lifts both of her legs up, holding her weight up. Those eyes are unfocused. She can feel him at her entrance.
"I've been holding back then you have to say things like that to stir me up." Kid licks up her neck. "You're wrong. It's this witch hunter who's taking advantage of the exhausted witch." Kid pushes his full length in. The water makes it even easier for him to slide in. Maka can't help her scream of delight. Feeling that stretch so quickly feels great. Kid isn't going easy on her either. He holds her up by her ass pounding into her, pressing her more into the wall. "Ah fuck-" She's already starting to feel build up. Kid pulls out of her completely. "H-Hey-"
"Aren't you enjoying this too much?" Kid swallows up her complaints with a kiss. "Shouldn't a witch hate this?" Maka doesn't know what kind of play she started but she finds she's digging it a bit too much.
"I can't help it. I love your cock. I want you to fill me up-"
He shoves into her again. He's gripping onto her so tightly. She can't do anything with her legs held up. She is at his mercy and she loves it. "K-Kid."She groans. His breathing is erratic. "Please...inside."
"M-Maka." He pushes her down and in that moment he finishes inside of her. Kid shutters her name, keeping himself deep in, her insides getting lathered in cum.
He pulls out and puts her down but she can't stand anymore. "I'm sorry i-i was too rough-"
"No! I liked it! I loved it!" Maka stands with Kid's help. Kid wraps his arms around her. "Honestly we need to do that more! Jeez going two weeks at a time is too long."
"But you're so tired-"
"I don't care if I'm tired. I still want it! I don't care if it's one in the morning before we get to sleep I want some dick."
"It could hurt your training. You should get as much rest as you can." His face is red.
"Kid." Maka groans.
"...We'll do it more." He tightens his grip around her. "...I've missed it too. I just worry about you."
"Yeah I know." Maka sighs. Kid starts washing her again. She got all sweaty. "Maybe sometime we could do more with that role play."
"Role play?"
"Yeah! The whole witch and witch hunter thing. It's hot. We could do something like...'oh no I've been captured by this witch hunter, what's he going to do?' and then you just fuck me talking all mean. You could be super rough-"
"I don't want to hurt you like that-"
"You're not it's fake. You started doing it a little bit just now. And you're already getting excited talking about it."
"T-That's not why-"
"We could also do it the other way around. I have you tied up and I'm like 'oh ho look what I caught?' something like that and then fuck you, milking you-"
"Ahh! Maka good lord the things you think of." Kid fans himself but he digs it. Maka can tell. It might be too soon for him but Maka is sure he'll come around.
"I have a nasty mind. This is what happens when you don't fuck me for two weeks Kid. You know witches have crazy sex drives. We should be doing it like every day."
"I am aware." Kid tries to refocus. "But you push your body everyday. You can't be doing all that and pushing your body with sex. I'll satisfy you in the other ways if I need to. I'll be...more conscious of your needs."
"Ohh really? I'll hold you to that." Maka perks up. "I'll try my best tomorrow so give me something nice tomorrow Kid~"
"Lord help me."
"You say that but look at how excited you are." Maka grabs his dick, smirking when he groans. "Why don't we go for another round-"
"On the bed and gently this time." Kid picks her up out of the shower, helping her dry off.
"I'll take it." Maka giggles when he picks her back up and brings her to the bed. It feels good. It's a need at this point if she craves it so much.
There's a part of her that wants to drain Kid dry.
"Alright now what do I do?" Maka looks over at Kid who is reading the book intensely. She used her magic to light a fire under the cauldron like he told her to do.
"Now we add the ingredients. First the mushroom."
Maka grabs the blue mushroom off the table. He's already set out the ingredients for her and everything. He looked it up and it's not poisonous so she just chucks it into the pot.
"Now the grass and then the clay."
She chucks those into the pot. The ingredients float on top of the water. "Uh...I don't think I'm doing something right Kid."
"It says you have to stir the ingredients while saying these words." Kid shows her the book.
"Right so..." Maka grabs the large spoon resembling an oar. She stirs in large circular motions.
"Now say this." Kid points while he holds up the book eye level.
"Blah there's too many words Kid. It's hard stirring and reading this at the same time."
"I can stir if you'd like."
"Yeah knock yourself out." Maka grabs the book so Kid can grab the spoon. He starts stirring for her. "Alright so..." Maka focuses on the book. "With this mushroom, grass and clay of the forest, I will them to combine. May my magic turn them into a tonic for stomach-"
"Ah Maka the ingredients are dissolving!"
"Really?" Maka stops mid chant to look into the pot. The ingredients have mixed into a green liquid. When she stopped talking though the liquid quickly changes black. "...Uh...is that how it's suppose to look?"
"Did you finish the words?"
"Um-" Just as both Kid and Maka are peering into the pot, it suddenly explodes. Large amount of black smoke puffs into their faces. Maka and Kid cough, taking steps back away from the cauldron. There's black soot all on the floor. It smells like a zoo. "Oh god this is gross." Maka wipes the soot from her mouth.
"Quite." Kid offers Maka his handkerchief. She wipes her face with it, ruining the fabric. "It's alright. We were close. I think if you finished the words it would have worked!"
"Yeah maybe. Damn." Maka wrinkles her nose, looking at the mess.
"We can try again right now!" Kid is too excited.
"Okay but...How do we get this black stuff out of the cauldron?"
"My father said there's a draining system. It's suppose to be used for you to bottle up your potions but I'm sure it will work to get rid of failed attempts." Kid walks over to the back of the cauldron. He grabs a bucket before he starts draining the cauldron.
"This is a hassle. Kid this is going to take hours."
"You're right. Father did place a pump I could use. It's like a vacuum." Kid stops the pipe, placing the bucket to the side. He gets the machine from the closet. He puts the end of it, that does like a vacuum in the cauldron before turning it on. It starts sucking up the mistake. "That' should take about ten or so minutes and then we can try again."
Suddenly the door bust open. It's the Mayor holding an Ax. Maka's quick to move back, putting her hands up. "Whoa, Whoa!"
"Father it's fine! The potion failed. Nothing happen." Kid gets in front of Maka.
"...Oh my." The Mayor calms down when he sees that Kid is fine. He lowers his ax, his nose wrinkling from the smell. "What potion are you trying? This is a mess. Maybe you should start off with something easier-"
"This has to be like the easiest potion there is. It's a stupid potion that's suppose to help stomach aches." Maka mumbles. "There isn't a easier one."
"I distracted Maka. This time it should work." Kid walks over to the cabinet and pulls out another set of ingredients.
"I think I'll stay and watch this time. Just in case there's another explosion that scares me half to death."
"Pssh. We got this." Maka waves her hand. Once the pump finishes draining, Kid removes it.
"I just have to scrub it real quick." Kid jumps into the pot, with a brush. He starts cleaning the pot from the inside.
"Kid this is a lot of work." Maka blinks when the Mayor hands her a brush. He doesn't have to say anything. He's giving her that look with that smile on his face. "..." Maka groans but she jumps in with him and helps scrub.
"Oh Maka I had it."
"Yeah let me just help." They finish up the cauldron. Kid starts to fill it with water again with the hose they have in this room...Now that Maka is in this room she realizes that the Mayor was right. This whole thing must have been a ton of money.
"Alright we're ready to try again!"
"Okay so...It's the mushroom first, then the grass, then the clay." Maka throws the ingredients in one by one. Kid starts to stir for her. "With this mushroom, grass and clay of the forest, I will them to combine. May my magic turn them into a tonic for stomach aches and heal the feeling of being sick." Maka looks at the water. It's turned green and it's bubbling more. "Alright I did it!"
"I...I think it's starting to get darker in color."
"...What else am I suppose to do?" Maka looks at the book again. "...Wait here it says after the words I'm suppose to finalize it? How do I do that? What does that mean?"
"Finalize?" Kid asks, still stirring quickly to try to keep the mixture from turning black.
"I have seen a witch make a potion before." The Mayor hums, rubbing his chin. "I believe she did something to make a puff of smoke come out. It also changed the color of the potion to it's final form."
"Okay so I just..." Maka blinks. "How am I suppose to do that?"
"You're the witch. I have no idea what she did. I Just saw that she did it. Maybe just picture...burping a baby."
"What?"
"M-Maka it's black-"
It explodes. This time soot gets everywhere. Maka just covering the book in time before it gets ruined. The three of them just stand there, covered in soot. The smell making her want to gag.
"...Alright enough of that." The Mayor brings out his handkerchief wiping his face. "You won't be able to do any potion if you don't know how to finalize them. It's also going to take forever for the maids to clean this room."
"Yeah." Maka doesn't want to get the soot in her mouth. "My bad."
"Yes. Your bad."
"It's alright Maka. It was your first time. We'll find out how to finalize. Maybe there's a book on it?" Kid encourages.
"Yeah I'm just glad I don't have to clean this shit up." The Mayor gives her a pointed stare. "alrighty then I'm taking a shower." She quickly runs out of the room.
"No! you're going to drag it all through the-" The Mayor groans when she's already up the stairs.
"I'm sorry father." Kid winces. "I can assist the maids."
"No. We still need to do more training." The Mayor pinches his nose. A couple of Maids have gathered around. They already look pale. "Yes dears I'm sorry but could you clean up...all of this." The Mayor gestures with his hands.
"Good lord." Cassie comes around the corner. "It stinks." She came out of a bathroom, she was cleaning. She starts spraying some mist but it doesn't stop the smell.
"Good luck." The Mayor quickly makes his get away. Kid swallows when he's the last one there. The maids are all looking at him blankly.
"Thank you." He takes off his shoes but he still ends up dragging it up the stairs with him.
All the Maids groan.
"Damn that was awkward." Maka chuckles, brushing her wet hair while sitting on the bed.
"Yes. It doesn't help matters now our bathroom is a mess." Kid sighs. "...Or that we have to go back pass the maids to do more training."
"I didn't mean to make that much of a mess. I didn't think potion making was such a hassle. Maybe it's best we just scrap the whole thing Kid-"
"No!" Kid tenses at his own voice. "Ah I m-mean...Sorry. I'm very interested in it. It's not up to me if you keep trying-"
"Nah if you like it so much I'll try it out again. I just got to figure out whatever finalize means."
"Yes...Though to be honest we may not be getting any books from the organization."
"Why not?"
"Father sent out the email about you. They added two and two together and realized the spell books would be for you. They are refusing to send any. They had some choice words for me and father as well."
"I kind of guessed that was going to happen." Maka sighs. "What gives? I've been approved by the government. The big boss that pays them-"
"A lot of witch hunters become witch hunters because of tragedy that was caused by witches. The government is the government but each witch hunter is different. I know it's going to be a hard road but I'm sure that the longer you keep at it, and show them what you stand for, they will come around." Kid puts a hand over hers. "And I'll be here every step of the way."
"Thanks Kid." Maka closes her eyes. "Wait." Maka snaps them open, narrowing her eyes at Kid. "Speaking of the government. You said you'd share your money with me-"
"Don't look at me like that." Kid chuckles. "I haven't lied to you. Actually I've taken the liberty of making you a bank account. Its' with the same bank I use. It's under the government. I already put half of my earnings for the month into it. Here." Kid pulls out his phone to show her. "You can change your password if you don't want me to have it." He shows the username and password. "And here's what you got in it-"
"five grand?!" Maka chokes, looking at her account. "The fuck? Wait we make ten grand a month from witch hunting?"
"Yes. I think father gets more but I believe this is the median amount-"
"Holy shit! I've never seen so much money!And all the witch hunters get this much? How the hell does the government afford this-"
"I believe they use taxes."
"Wait since we're working for the government doesn't that mean we skip paying taxes-"
"Oh no. we still have to pay taxes on it. We can file our taxes together next year."
"...I'm a witch/ witch hunter that works for the government and I still have to pay taxes? Taxes that I might add go back to paying me to witch hunt?"
"That's how it works, yes."
"You know what? Whatever. I got five grand! I can buy so much McDonald's with this! Hell I could live out my dream of buying a farm!"
"I think you'll need more then five grand but I didn't know you wanted a farm."
"It was never in the cards but now I could! Just imagine it. I could turn it into a money scheme. Farm for rehabilitating witches. I get free work and money for it. Also I'll have plenty of sheep-"
"I don't think that would work." Kid chuckles. "Though if you had a farm I'd help you with the work-"
"Pssh." Maka waves him off. Kid's eyebrows furrow.
"What do you mean 'pssh'?"
"I can not picture you working on a farm. There's no way."
"I can do hard and dirty work."
"Nah still can't see it. Like just picturing you with a straw hat, milking a cow-" Maka pictures it. It makes her crack up. She doesn't get why it's so funny but it is.
"I don't see what's so funny." Just looking at Kid's face makes her laugh more.
"Kid I can't. I can't see it. Trying to see you in your suit, doing farm work-"
"I would be dressed appropriately! I would not dress in a suit to do farm work-" Kid pouts. "I can be a farm hand. I'd work on one if that's what you wanted to do."
"Yeah when we retire we just have a farm. And it all starts with this five grand!"
"Again we'll need a lot more but it's a goal."
"Yeah for the future. Now lets go out and spend some of this money-" Maka grins.
"Nope. No fun. More training." the Mayor suddenly busts into the room again, getting them both to shout.
"The hell!"
"Father you can't just waltz into our room like that-"
"Oh I'm quite pissed right now with how my home looks. I"d hope you two weren't so shameless after running the carpet you'd go straight to having sex-"
"Father!"
"Jesus dude! I said my bad-"
"Training. Now."
And it was brutal.
"Fuck my whole body." Maka groans, flopping into bed. She's too tired to shower. Too tired to care if it's gross. Her hand hurts like hell. She didn't have a rebound but it was close. She was able to hold the Shockwave much longer but she over did it. "He didn't have to go at us so hard."
"I agree." Kid turns off the lights, laying next to her. He ended up showering again. "Father has been stressed more lately. The organization isn't taking the news well. He's been training us every day and there's also Medusa to worry about."
"Yeah I know and then I fucked up his house. I should be glad he didn't say fuck it and try to murder me today." Maka blinks when Kid wraps his arms around her from behind, spooning her. "Kid I'm gross."
"No you're not. I want to hold you."
"Not my fault if I make you stink." Maka relaxes in his hold.
"Are you alright?" He reaches for her hand, messaging it. "You did well but don't push yourself too hard."
"I'm fine. I made progress today. I just got to keep making progress."
"I know I ask you this every day but...you haven't heard from Medusa?"
"No. She's gone quiet ever since the Mayor accepted me. I haven't had a nightmare either. I don't know what she's planning. She knows where we are though. Ragnarok came here because Medusa told him where I was. Also Crona is close enough for Ragnarok to travel here. It's nerve racking...knowing she's planning to attack but not knowing when. Ragnarok hasn't been by either."
"I did replace the charms. That's what's keeping him out most likely."
"...No matter what I'll be ready for her. She's not going to get away with what she's done. My mother's death is all on her. She'll suffer for it." Maka's body trembles just thinking about it. Kid tightens his grip on her, bringing her back.
"Me and father will fight by your side. There's nothing to worry about. Even if we can't get the help of the other witch hunters, it won't matter. Father is the best of the best. I'm nothing to sneeze at either. And with your magic and hunting skills, we'll be able to overcome anything."
"Yeah." Maka closes her eyes. His words and his warmth luring her into safety. "We can do it."
Maka doesn't know when she fell asleep. She must have drifted off soon after she closed her eyes while talking to Kid. The next thing she knows she's been pushed gently by Kid.
It's already time for them to get up to run.
Maka's body feels so groggy. She's only gotten five hours of sleep. She forces herself up and forces herself to get ready. Kid grabs her hand before they head down the stairs to meet up with the Mayor. They blink when they see the Mayor at the kitchen table, having a coffee.
"No running today. We have a mission." The Mayor waves them to sit down.
"Damn you could have said that. I would have gotten more sleep-"
"Oh no. You'll need to go up and pack a bag. We'll be hitting the road soon. The drive is six hours long so-"
"Six hours?!"
"Where are we going father? Why are we hunting outside of our territory-"
"One of my buddies told me he found a den. Four witches reported. All living in this home where they lure their victims in. There's been many reports of missing men and young children. It's a big job."
"Okay but why aren't the witch hunters in the area handling It?"
"Because it's a test for Maka."
"For me?" Maka rubs her eyes and yawns.
"My buddy wants to see what you can do. Even though we've been friends for a long time even he is having trouble with coming to terms with you being a witch hunter. The witch hunters in the area are stepping back. They want to see you. It's a good chance for you to gain some favor with other witch hunters."
"Will we have to worry about them attacking her though?" Kid grips his fist.
"We'll have to be on guard. Though he is my friend, there are others under him that might try to attack. The hatred for witches is high. You'll have to be cautious Maka."
"Got it." Maka locks eyes with the Mayor. "So I do this and maybe gain some favor...will they help us in the battle against Medusa?"
"Maybe. Maybe not. It could make things worse. We'll just have to see." The Mayor looks between the two. "Get some clothes packed. We'll drive up there, and meet with the other witch hunters to discuss the plan. We may hunt tonight or tomorrow either way we are at least staying in a hotel for tonight. I'm already packed so once you're done we'll head out."
"Alright." Maka stands up, trying to pump herself up. She needs to wake up. She needs to prepare for meeting more witch hunters. "Lets do this." Maka rushes up the stairs to start packing. She winces when she sees the maids are still cleaning that room. They glare at her. Maybe it's best she leave for a couple of days anyway.
Once she's in the room she grabs her back pack that she used to move her stuff into Kid's house. She starts packing up her cloths for a couple of days. Kid enters the room soon after with a small suitcase.
"This seems like a big deal." Maka finishes up her packing to watch Kid put his neatly folded clothes in his suit case. She just shoved hers in.
"Yes. Its' good news that my father's friend wants to see you. There's nothing to worry about. I'll protect you no matter what."
"I can protect myself." Maka mumbles. She glances at her cross necklace. It's her proof of being a witch hunter.
"I can carry that with me. I know it hurts you." Kid grabs her necklace and puts in his pocket. He's already starting to fret over her. Maka understands he does it because he cares but it makes her feel weak. "Maka don't do anything reckless while we are there. If a witch hunter tries to get you alone refuse. I don't trust that they won't try anything."
"What if your father's friend just wanted to lure me out to kill me and there's no witch den." Maka smirks.
"I doubt that. That would be cruel. I am sure he really wants to test you. Even if that was his intention I would not let it stand."
"Yeah. I'm not really worried about it. I doubt it's a trap." Once Kid is done packing they head down the stairs. He tried to take her luggage but she refused. They meet the Mayor outside. He's already standing by the car. It's running.
"I already packed our weapons and equipment. The maids are aware we'll be gone for a couple of days. Now-" the Mayor hands them both a thermos. "I made you two coffee! We can stop for some food on the way. Isn't this great? Road trip!" He chuckles.
"Yay six hours of driving." Maka throws her back pack in the trunk, Kid doing the same. Maka gets in the back. Kid is about to do the same-
"Kid sit in the front with me. I get lonely." The Mayor pouts.
"But-"
"Kid sit with your dad. I'll be able to stretch out that way."
"Very well."
"Yay~" The Mayor perks up with his son sitting next to him. " Now buckle up kiddos it's going to be a bumpy ride."
Maka tenses when the Mayor suddenly steps on the gas. In contrast to Kid, the Mayor is a speed demon. His moments are jerky. All Maka can do is hang on to her coffee so it doesn't spill all over her.
"Father the speed limit is thirty!-"
"That's just a suggestion-"
"It's really not!"
Maka takes a sip of her coffee. She's already starting to get a headache. Six hours of the Mayors jerky driving and Kid freaking out about it.
Hopefully she'll be able to take a nap.
Maka groans, jumping out of the car as soon as it stops. She stretches her body. It's so stiff from sitting still for so long. Six hours of just sitting and waiting. They stopped twice to use the bathroom and get some snacks but it still didn't stop her from feeling like crap. It doesn't help that as soon as they made it to the hotel they just dropped their things off before getting back into the car. Apparently the witch hunters can't wait to meet her. They invited them out for lunch.
"Now Maka be cautious." The Mayor warns, getting out of the car. "Don't be too aggressive either. If they say something that bothers you, I will be your defense. Try to be on your best behavior."
"Yeah I get it." Maka sighs. "I won't start any shit. I'm hungry so I'll be focused on the food."
"Yes eat whatever you want. I'll cover it." Kid grabs her hand. They make their way inside of the restaurant. He gives her hands a squeeze to assure her once they spot the table. There's five men waiting for them. They stare at her intensely.
"Jacob my friend." The Mayor beams, ignoring the tense atmosphere. He holds out his hand to the biggest of the five. Jacob grins, standing up to shake his hand.
"Damien you son of a bitch!"
Maka blinks. The Mayor's name is Damien? She realizes this whole time she never really knew his real name. It would be weird to call him that. She thinks he'll always be the Mayor for her.
"And Kid! You've grown since I've last saw you!" Jacob holds out his hand to Kid. Kid takes it with a smile.
"You as well."
"So you've noticed!" He laughs loudly, getting other tables to look at them. He flex his muscles. He is ripped but Maka has to stop her face from wrinkling by how hairy he is. He is flaunting his tuft of chest hair.
"And this must be the infamous Maka!" Jacob turns his attention to her. He loses his merriment. "I can't believe it. You weren't pulling my leg. A witch as a witch hunter."
"That's me." Maka wonders if he's going to put his hand out for her to shake. He doesn't.
The other four men are viscous looking. She doesn't like how they're looking at her. They can't hold back their contempt.
"Here Maka." Kid pulls the seat for her. She sits down with everyone else. Kid puts his hand on her thigh. His warmth calms her down.
"Damien what the hell are you thinking?" The skinny man on the end says. "Why are we having lunch with a witch-"
"Calm down." Jacob wave him off. "I hope you don't mind but I've ordered your drinks for you. Just some waters. You can order something else if you want." They're waters sitting in front of them. They still have ice so they haven't been sitting out for long. Maka goes to grab her water- Kid grabs it first.
"I'll be testing her food." Kid announces.
"No Kid. I'll be testing her food." The Mayor takes the water from Kid. He looks surprised. "There's too much of a risk that it's poisoned. I wouldn't put it past this lot. So down the hatch~"
Before the Mayor can drink it, that skinny guy smacks it out of his hand. The glass shatters. The Mayor stares him down.
"Did you seriously poison her water?" Jacob snarls. "Get the fuck out Luca." The skinny guy gets up in a rage but he leaves. When the waiter comes by, quite angry with the commotion, Jacob calms him down with some money. "Sorry about that witch. My men are having a tough time accepting you."
"I can see that."
"I will be continuing to test the food." The Mayor hums. "No one try that again okay?"
"You invite Maka here and then you try to poison her. Are we on friendly terms or are we not?" Kid squeezes her thigh.
"We are. I'm always friendly when it comes to you and your son. I invited the witch out to see what she's about. I'm sorry about Luca. It won't happen again." Jacob soothes. She doesn't think Jacob would do anything but the other guys are a different story. The haven't said a word.
"Now Damien has told me a lot about you. Your story is interesting I'll give you that. A witch that didn't know she was a witch till recently. Sealed by your mother. Cursed by another witch. For a cursed witch you seem to be doing fine."
"I've gotten a pretty good handle on the curse. I wouldn't say I'm fine though. The sooner we break the curse the better."
"Yes of course. Medusa is our target." Jacob rubs his chin. " Don't got any information for you on that end but maybe these four witches will know something."
"Tell us about the job. What's the plan?" The Mayor cuts in.
"Right. These four witches are the cause of many disappearances. They target men and children. We've found where they've been living and have been monitoring it. As of right now they are out of the house. Unfortunately we haven't' been able to track them once they're out of the house. They can teleport. The plan is once my guy tells us they're back at the house, that's when you guys will attack. I can't tell you the layout of the house. I originally wanted the witch to go in by herself-"
"That's not happening." Kid cuts in.
"I'm aware. Your dad said as much. So now you three will bust in together. Kill the four witches. I"ll be joining you so I can make sure the witch actually does some hunting and isn't just for show."
"Just for show he says." Maka snorts. "I slice them up real good."
"A witch that kills her own kind as a witch hunter is unheard of. I need to see you work or I can't believe it. That's just how I am. I don't believe anything unless I see it."
"Man..." The brown haired man that's sitting in front of her says. It's the first time he's spoke. He looks greasy like he hasn't showered in days. "I still don't believe it even though she's sitting right here." He reaches over like he's about to touch her face. She moves back.
"Don't' touch her." Kid warns.
"Hey I wasn't doing nothing. Just wanted a better look at her." He grins. "Those are the eyes of a witch alright. She's weak. I almost killed over laughing when you sent that email. You really are trying to make a witch stronger. She is just going to get stronger and then stab you in the back. That's all witches are good for."
"I think we should order food." The Mayor cuts in when he could see Kid is getting ruffled.
"Food is good." Jacob waves down the waiter.
"Wait I haven't' even looked at the menu-" Maka starts.
"No need! We're all getting ribs!" Jacob laughs loudly. He orders for everyone. Maka doesn't really mind ribs but she's never had someone just tell her what she's going to eat. He did it to everyone else too so that must just be him.
"You should let people order their own food." The Mayor chuckles but he's not fighting him. The waiter has already walked off.
"Everyone loves ribs! It saves time too. You need meat for those growing muscles." He laughs.
"Tell me witch. What is your goal?" The black haired man asks her. It seems he was holding that question back. Not at all worried about the ribs.
"My goal is obvious. Kill Medusa. Avenge my mother. Break the curse-"
"After that. The curse is a simple fix. You kill Medusa and it's over. What are you plans after you've gotten what you wanted from Damien and his son?"
"I guess I'll just stay as a witch hunter and make bank. It doesn't matter as long as Kid is with me."
"Aw Maka." Kid flushes. He looks too happy about it. He should know she's not saying it to be sweet. She needs him at this point.
"Wait..." The shortest man who hasn't said anything this whole time finally speaks. He looks between them. "Don't tell me...you have relations with her?"
"I mean duh of course he does!" That greasy man smirks. "Whats the point of dealing with a witch on the team if they ain't fucking her-"
"Hold your tongue." Kid snaps, those golden eyes flaring up. "You-"
"Kid calm down." The Mayor puts his hand on his shoulder. "As you know I will never lay with a witch again. This is my son's girlfriend. Be respectful of that."
"Girlfriend?!" That greasy man is laughing too hard. It's starting to piss Maka off. "You hear that Jacob?! What the hell is wrong with you Damien? How could you allow your son to be with a witch? You know she's going to be fucking any guy that gives her the time of day-"
The Mayor grabs Kid before he stands up. Maka can tell he's seeing red. He might have jumped across the table.
"Now I believe I just told you to be respectful. You are upsetting my son. If you don't stop." the Mayor stares this man down with darken eyes, his expression enough to make this grown men sweat. "I'll make you stop."
"Alright alright I'm done." The greasy man finally stops.
"You must forgive his manners Maka." Jacob says but it seems he found the whole thing amusing.
"It doesn't bother me." Maka grabs Kid's hand. He always wants to protect her. From bullying and from physical attacks. He gets so angry for her. "He looks like ass."
"Excuse me-"
"Take a shower first and then try to insult me."
"Now now." Jacob laughs off the greasy man's anger. "You asked for it. And look our food is here!" The many plates of ribs are delivered. It smells good. They each got a full rack of ribs.
"Let me taste it." The Mayor takes small samples of each rib. He nods his head. "All good-"
"Hell yeah." Maka starts digging in. She's so hungry. She's never been one for table manners so soon enough her face is covered in sauce.
"Maka slow down you might choke!"
"Haha! I'm starting to like you already witch!" Jacob joins in on the mess, trying to finish his ribs before her.
"Ew." The short man looks disgusted. He hasn't touched his ribs.
"These are good! It's been too long since I've head a meal with you friends."
"Yeah it would have been nice if there wasn't a witch ruining it-"
"What? You gonna cry?"
"Don't talk with your mouth open witch!"
"Then don't talk shit-"
"Yup. A nice dinner." The Mayor hums.
It doesn't take long before Maka is done with her food. She didn't beat Jacob though. The Mayor is next and soon everyone finishes up. Just not the short one.
"Here Maka." Kid wipes her face for her. He chuckles. "You made a mess."
"Yeah I know. I'm a messy girl." Maka lets him do it.
"I'll make you into a messy Girl witch." That greasy man licks his lips.
"I got this Kid." Maka grabs a rib bone and throws it at him.
"The hell-"
"Do not speak to her like that. I swear to god I'll cut out your tongue." Kid is pissed off again.
"She threw shit at me-" He winches when another rib bone is thrown at him. This time it's the Mayor.
"You are testing me." The Mayor chuckles. It sends shivers down everyone's spines. "You are ruining this dinner."
"How am i-" Another rib bone. " Jacob not you too-"
"Shut your mouth man. You must forgive him Maka. He is a pretty gross man when it comes to your kind."
"I don't even agree with his practices." That black haired guy rolls his eyes. "I don't like you witch but I'd be careful with him around."
"There's no need to bring up that. Maka doesn't need to know how you kill witches." The Mayor cuts in.
"What do you torture them? I like slicing them up till they're nothing but a pile of meat." Maka chuckles, thinking about it.
"She's extreme too." The short man mumbles.
"You could say that." The greasy man smirks. Jacob gives him a look. "Fine. Why you so butt hurt about a witch-"
"I don't like it either."
"I'm not breaking the law. The witches have no rights-"
"I don't like where this is going. I don't want to hear any more about it. You." Kid points at the greasy man. "I want him gone from the table."
"You heard him get the fuck out." Jacob grabs that man by the arm and shoves him. The man looks like he's about to protest but no one is backing him up. He leaves cussing. "If he wasn't such a good witch hunter I'd have put a stop to him by now but I'm sorry to say...I don't care much about witches. Not enough to care what all the witch hunters are doing to them."
She's been listening to what they've been saying. It doesn't make it hard for her to guess what he does with how he talks. "...He rapes Witches?"
"I've never seen it happen." Jacob puts his hands up when Kid glares at him. "He's bragged about it a couple of times."
"Says he binds them up so they can't fight back before he has his way with them." The short one mumbles. "It's really gross. I hate when he talks about it."
"..." Maka wonders if she could get away with killing that witch hunter. She could make it look like an accident. Maybe she's a hypocrite. She kills witches. She tortures them while laughing and yet thinking of that man doing that to a witch before killing them is crossing the line. The way he was looking at her was disgusting. Like a piece of meat. "You must really hate witches to allow a man like that to roam around." Maka can't hide the darkness in her voice.
"Well it would be different if they weren't witches." Jacob is indifferent about it. "They are going to die anyway."
"Yeah I hate them so much." That short one mumbles again.
"The witches we kill have destroyed so much. We all have had witches take from us. You must understand-"
"A witch took my mother and father. You act like I'm different from you all. Yes I'm a witch but I'm here for the same reasons give or take. A witch destroyed something in my life. Still. I just want her dead. I'll make her suffer. I'l enjoy ripping her apart slowly...even still I'd never wish that on her. That's just sick."
"You call it sick while talking about ripping a witch apart in the same sentence. You don't make sense witch-"
"I think she makes plenty sense. A man like that shouldn't be a witch hunter." Kid snarls. "I had no idea that he was doing such a thing."
"The government won't do anything. Once a witch hunter is official they won't get rid of them. They would have to go against their wishes to stop paying him as one." The Mayor isn't smiling. "I've reported behavior like this in the past...they don't see it as a crime. If you reported it to normal police they would be paid off quickly to release him. There's nothing to be done about it."
"This is outrageous-"
"You only care because your girlfriend is a witch." that black haired man grunts.
"I would have cared regardless-"
Maka starts laughing. "You guys are the worse. You preach that witches are evil but in your hunts I think you've become evil just like them."
"Maka." The Mayor warns.
"Evil? Witches are the ones who are evil. You are evil." That short man is getting angry. "Do you know how many people have died because of your kind-"
"I'm sure there's been plenty. I just find it funny. That those who preach order are going around raping witches-"
"Well my friend I think that's the end of this lunch. Report to us when you spot the witches returning. We'll take care of this job."
"Without raping any of them. Shocker right?"
The Mayor places a large amount of money on the table before he grabs Maka by the arm and drags her out. Kid rushes after him.
"Father she has a right to get angry." Kid defends her once they're out of the restaurant.
"I understand that. In this moment we are trying to get other witch hunter support-"
"I don't want support from those ass holes." Maka shakes her head. "We can kill Medusa without them. Hell I'm glad they called us to handle this witch problem. If we weren't that nasty dude would have been involved. Yuck."
"Medusa is a powerful witch. She might summon monsters to aid her. We need all the help we can get. I'm sure Jacob is fine but I don't think the others-"
"They weren't' going to help either way. Everyone but Jacob was hostile."
Father we can do this mission but it's unlikely that we will get much help."
"..." The Mayor sighs. "Maybe we'll get lucky with more opportunities like this."
" Maybe with some actually good witch hunters." Maka grunts.
"They are some of the best."
"Some real gems."
"That one is the only one that does that to witches. The others are just harden from all their time being witch hunters. They do not care for your kind. The fact that they came to have a meal with you is a miracle. Try to get along with these four at least. They will be a great help."
"..."
"Father if that man even touches Maka-"
"I know. He's not getting near her. I'll deal with him myself if he tries anything. If he tries anything with you Maka that could destroy him. You have been recognized by the government. You are not like the other witches. Remember that."
"I hope he tries something so I can kill him-"
"No killing him. You can't kill anyone. That will give them a reason to put you to death."
"We'll handle him if it comes down to it Maka." Kid reassures He's holding it back but Maka can tell he's pretty shaken by that whole dinner. That nasty man is a menace. She wants him dead. She hopes that one day he falls and a witch kills him. She hopes the witch rips him. She hopes he dies In the most painful ways.
She hopes it gets to be her.
"It was nice of your dad to get us our own room." Maka flips through the channels. She's been trying to calm down since that dinner.
"Yes. It would have been awkward to have him here with us."
"Why? You trying to fuck?" Maka grins. Kid is taken off guard so easily.
"T-That's not what I-"
"You know I'm all stressed out. You should help take away that stress..."
"We're waiting for the call." He's trying to resist. "They might call while we're...involved."
"What are the chances? We've been waiting for an hour and nothing. We can play around while we're waiting. It will help me with my stiff body. You got to make me loose so I'll be good against the witches tonight. Besides it's been awhile since we've done it-"
"We did it yesterday." Kid says but he's already flushing.
"That was yesterday it doesn't count for today. If you're worried about being worn out I'll do most of the work." She can't help to pounce on him. He likes to protest and yet he's hard as a rock. She can already feel it against her hip. "Here let me get my work out for the day~"
"T-The call-"
"Just a quicky." Maka unbuttons his pants. She smirks when he helps her take them off. She'll leave him dressed from the waste up. He's hot in his suit. He's going to sweat in it anyway when they hunt. Maka takes off her shorts. She leaves on her top half. It's kind of interesting thinking they have a time limit. That any minute someone could be knocking at their door.
"Let me prepare you-"
"I don't need it. We've done it plenty. Besides when you finger me you're too good at it. I don't want your fingers." Maka gets on his lap facing away from him. She's been googling different positions and this one seemed like fun; It gives her more leverage to move. Also lets Kid get a good view of her ass. The only disadvantage is that she can't see his face. Maka sighs is relief, lowering herself on him. The stretch is always good. Hearing Kid moan is a bonus.
It's different doing it like this. She can't see his expressions as she bounces on him. She can see that his feet are twitching . She wonders if his toes curl when he cums. "It feels g-great." Maka's loves the sound of their skin connecting. She loves feeling him hit her deep. "Your cock is amazing once again." She purrs.
It feels like he got bigger inside of her. He's touching on her hips and ass. "M-Maka you're going to make me cum too quickly."
"That's the point or should I slow down?" Maka stops her moving, holding his hips down so he can't thrust.
"Don't tease me." He breathes out, his voice husky.
"Or what?" Maka smirks but she starts up anyway. She wants to be filled up before they leave-
Kid's phone starts to ring. Maka doesn't stop. She keeps going. "You should answer that." Maka smirks. "It's important isn't it?"
"..." Kid bites his lip. Her eyes widen when he answers but like hell she's stopping. "This is Kid." His voice is strained but sounds pretty good.
Maka can't hear what the other person is saying. She wonders if she could be mean and start moaning-
"Got it." Kid hangs up. "That was the call."
"Oh then I guess-" She was able to tease him again but she's cut off when he grabs her by the arms and starts to fuck her viciously. She can't hold her screams. She loves when he's rough.
"Getting me so worked up before a mission." He thrust deep. "Not even pausing to let me talk on the phone."
"I c-can't help it." Maka feels that build up. "I want you to make a mess of me-" He slams into her again. It's enough to send her over the edge. "Fuck!"
"M-Maka." He says her name, finishing inside of her. She keeps herself down on him till she's completely lathered up in his cum. Maka has a problem. The feeling of that hot liquid inside of her always turns her on more.
"Too bad we have a mission to do." Maka moves her body off of Kid. She ends up being on all fours. Feeling it drip out of her makes her groan. She glances back at Kid. He's staring at her. She smirks, spreading herself so he can see better. More cum spills out of her onto the bed. "There's plenty of room for more."
He takes a sharp intake of breath. She yelps in surprise when Kid smacks her ass. She wasn't expecting the sting but it makes her shiver.
"You deserved that, trying to rile me up even more. Maka get ready. We have a mission to do." He's trying to be strict with her. His voice gives him away. She'll stop though.. She knows they have work to do.
"Yes sir." She chuckles, heading into the bathroom. She lets herself drain in the toilet before putting on some new shorts. When she comes out, Kid wraps his arms around her. He gives her a tender kiss on the lips before laying his forehead against hers.
"Lets focus for this mission. If you still want more later...I'll give it to you."
"Oh I'll want more." Maka can't believe this man that just fucked her like that is flushing, looking at her like she's some kind of princess.
"I love you Maka."
"Yeah yeah." Maka never says it back. She never believed in love. Kid doesn't seem to mind though. He gets her.
"Lets get father and let him know it's time to go-" Kid separates from her. He walks to the front door and opens it.
"Thank god you two stopped. Do you know how loud you were being?" The Mayor looks pale. He's standing at the door. He looks horrified.
"F-Father! Why are you-"
"I got the call. They said they told you too. I was waiting for you to come to me but you didn't. Kid I'm happy you have a good sex life but maybe not before a mission-"
"Don't talk about it anymore!" Kid looks like a tomato.
"Yeah my bad." Maka feels kind of bad but it's funny seeing how flustered Kid gets. "We better head out."
"Yes." It's the first time the Mayor has looked so traumatized. He leaves quickly. Kid looks like he wants to die.
Maka feels she may be strange for finding it so funny. She doesn't' have any shame. She wonders if it's because that's how she's always been or if it's because she's a witch.
"What took you three so long? The witches have been in their home for forty minutes now!" Jacob taps his foot. He's waiting by a bush outside of this large home. It's more like a mansion. It may even be bigger then Kid's home. He's being too loud for wanting this to be sneaky.
"Traffic was bad." The Mayor says with a straight face.
"Ah yes Traffic." Kid backs up.
"Yeah the traffic sucked." Maka agrees.
"Right...well anyway are you ready for this or what?"
"Hell yeah." Maka holds out her scythe grinning.
"What's the plan? Do you have a entry point for us?" The Mayor is looking around. The mansion is will lit.
"Nope. I was thinking we could make use of having a witch on our side. All she has to do is unlock the front door and we'll get in that way."
"Going in through the front?"
"The witches would sense Maka use her magic. Even if it's a small amount that's too much of a risk." Kid glances at Maka.
"I like going in through the front. They're going to know we're here anyway or at least that I'm here. I can sense their magic. They probably can sense mine too."
"Yeah and no one expects you'd use the front door!" Jacob laughs. "Then it's decided. Lets go men." He starts marching towards the door.
"It will be fine." Maka grins at Kid when he gives her that look. "All I got to do is slice them to pieces. We can take them."
"Where are your other men?" The Mayor asks.
"They'll be here later. They didn't want to pitch in to help a witch."
"Figures." Maka rolls her eyes. She walks up to the front door and mumbles the spell needed. The door clicks and she's able to open it easily. They all walk in without speaking, keeping their foot steps light.
"Stop." The Mayor commands once they make it to the middle of the room. "Something isn't right."
Maka senses it too. The air is too quiet and heavy. There's so much magic in here that it feels like they're surrounded. They keep completely still.
It's an ominous feeling. Like the feeling of swimming in the ocean at night with nothing but darkness underneath. Yet there's that feeling that you're not alone. That feeling that any wrong movement and the ocean will swallow you up.
There's movement.
The Mayor picks it up first. He grabs Kid and jumps out of the way. Maka catches it next. She could dodge but she has a feeling where the magic is aimed at.
"Barrier!" Maka rushes towards Jacob, casting a barrier around the both of them. It catches the spike of magic just before it rips through Jacob's skull.
"Shit!" Jacob grips his ax, watching the spike of magic fade away.
"Good catch Maka." The Mayor is glaring ahead. The air is thick with power. She got lucky. Maka takes one look at these two witches that have appeared before them and she knows this won't be easy. They are high level. There's only two. Two more are uncounted for.
"I can't believe it. The rumors are true. A witch helping and protecting the witch hunters." The witch with black hair sneers.
"A weak witch at that." The brown haired one chuckles. "Stop playing witch hunter and become my pet little witch~"
"I'm not playing. I'll show you how serious I am." Maka holds out her scythe, that itch to kill starting to consume her. "Get ready to be chopped into chunks~" She charges ahead first. It may be reckless but she's not mindless. It's better if their attention is on her. The others will be able to swoop in and do some real damage.
"I'm going to play with her!" The brunette cheers, holding out her hand. Maka has to jump and roll out of the way of those spikes. One wrong move and she's skewered.
Though Maka can't keep track of everyone she's aware that The Mayor is already on the move fighting with the other witch with Kid. Jacob is keeping his distance.
Maka breaks through and rushes towards the witch. She swings back her blade, it getting blocked by a barrier before she could connect with flesh. She jumps back and tries to swing for her legs. Another barrier. This witch has a lot of magic.
"You aren't getting to me~" She coos. "Come on keep still." Suddenly her feet get caught in something. She looks down. There's goo on her feet. It's holding her to the floor. "Hehe. Looks like my sister is about to get involved. You poor girl. No one is helping you. That witch hunter that you saved is just watching. Don't worry. I'll be sure to use all your parts. I'll record your screams so you can always be alive in my collection"
This witch touches her, caressing her arm. It's the opening Maka needs. If this keeps up she's going to die. She grabs this witch's arm and with all her might she shouts "Shockwave!" Electricity flows into the witch, causing her to scream. She tries to get out of Maka's hold but she just grips her tighter.
In that moment Jacob decides to act. He rushes her, slicing off her head with one swipe from his blade. Her body crumbles to the floor, Jacob getting to work on slicing off her hands.
Maka is already out of breath. She can feel sweat falling down her face. She doesn't have much more left in her before she'll have to worry about a rebound-
"You!" That black haired witch turns her attention away from the Mayor, about to send a spell Maka's way.
Kid slices her hand before she can. The Mayor goes in for the final strike but a burst of wind sends the both of them flying cross the room, slamming into the wall.
"Kid!" Maka grabs her scythe. She was going to make her way over towards them but she's cut off by a new witch. She's familiar though. It's the same witch that sealed her feet. "Release this magic-"
"Suffer." This witch with hair like green goo mumbles something. The floor opens up beneath her. She hears Kid yell for her as she falls into darkness. The floor closes up above her as she falls...and lands into a pit of slimy water.
Maka keeps herself afloat but just feeling all the slime coating her skin and hair is making her feel sick. The water is dark green. She can't see anything but she knows this is dangerous. "Fucking hell." Maka Lifts her scythe up, trying to not get it any more wet and she makes her way over towards a way out of the water.
She called it a pit but it's really a swimming pool. A swimming pool filled with slimy disgusting water Maka tries not to think of it. This mucous is covering her and making her body heavier. She's glad that her feet can touch now. She's almost out of the pool-
She feels something brush against her leg. Too firm to be a big chuck of mucous. Maka books it towards the end. She makes it and just as she's lifting up out of the pool she feels something grab her leg. She screams, her body being pulled back in. She turns to swing her scythe, her breath getting caught her throat. It's a large blob of goo. It's already covering her left leg, moving up her body as if it's devouring her. She can already see bones of it's victims stuck in the goo. A fresh corpse is stuck, the mouth open in a frozen scream.
"Oh fuck!" Maka swings her scythe but it's not doing anything. The goo keeps coming back. It keeps crawling up. It's up to her waist. It's burning. Slowly but surly. It's going to digest her. Picking off her flesh a bit at a time.
Her eyes swarm in her head. What can she do? Does she know any spell? She barely has any magic left. This blob seems to be made of water and goo...she's played enough games to know that water is weak to electric.
Maka has to risk it. It's up to her chest. "Shockwave!" Maka screams. The goo jiggles, making a strange gurgling sound but it's starting to retreat. She feels that tingling in her hands but she keeps it up. She needs to get away from it. Once it's to her feet, she's able to get out of its grip, stopping the spell.
She runs as far away from the pool as she can with her scythe. She doesn't know where this path leads but all she knows is that she needs to be away from that goo monster. She doesn't want to die like that.
Maka stops to catch her breath. She's made it to some kind of door. There's magic behind it. She leans on her scythe handle. She's trying to ignore the cramping in her hands. It's becoming more painful. If she needs to use magic again she's sure she'll rebound.
Maka groans when she looks at her legs. They're inflamed. They're starting to sting. She pushes past her pain. She needs to meet back up with Kid. They're fighting two strong witches without her right now.
Maka opens the door in front of her. It's unlocked.
This room has a cauldron. There's many bottles filled with potions. In the middle of this room is a witch stirring the cauldron. When Maka opened the door, the blue haired witch looked towards her. Her face which looked frighten, changes to surprise when she sees it's her.
"Oh!" The witch had stopped stirring. The potion turned black and puffed, covering her in soot. She wipes her face quickly, those blue eyes never leaving Maka. "You...Are you new?"
"Excuse me?" Maka blinks.
"Your legs! You're injured. It's always hard when you start off here." The witch makes her way over to her potions. She grabs a blue and red bottle. "Here this one will help with the burns. They threw me in that pit once. It was the scariest moment of my life! You did good to escape."
"..." Maka doesn't feel threaten. She can tell that this witch is weak. There's nothing hiding away her power. She sits down and lets the witch pour the blue liquid on her legs. She sighs in relief. The stinging goes away. Her legs have gained their color back.
"This potion should help with your exhaustion. You look like you're about to kill over." She hands her the red one. Maka hesitates for a moment. This could be a trap. She shouldn't just accept what this witch is giving her.
"I understand. You don't trust me. It's hard to trust anyone." This witch smiles at her. She's dirty from head to toe. Her clothes torn up. "My name is Mai. I've been in this mansion for about...five years now? Sorry the days kind of blend together. I've been alone for most of it. This might not be the best place to be a prisoner in but at least we can live...as long as we do as they say. I'm glad you're here."
"You're a prisoner here?" Maka takes the potion. She thinks for a moment longer before she drinks it. Her eyes widen. She feels a surge of power. She feels like her magic just got recharged. "You...You really healed me up."
"Yes! I'm no good at spells but I'm great when it comes to potions. It's why I'm still alive!" She says happily. "Sorry I don't mean to be so excited right now. This is a bad time for you. I'm just happy you're here."
"...Why are you here?" Maka asks. This can't be the fourth witch on the report. There's no way.
"That's a hard question you know? I guess you can say I'm here because I'm weak. I'm no good on my own but my mother didn't want me when she realized I was so weak. I tried opening up a potion shop but I was just attacked by stronger witches that would steal my work and not pay for anything. They would say and do horrible things! Then the madams came. They destroyed the whole shop and dragged me here. Told me I would have to work to live." Those blue eyes lower but she's smiling all the same. "It's not too bad. You just have to work. Do what they want. If you don't they'll kill you and harvest your parts. I've seen it. But you'll be fine! I'll help you. I've always wanted a sister! Oh and...they also like to...sometimes...hurt you. Hopefully you don't catch their eye too much. I'll try to put myself out there more. I wouldn't want you to be violated when you're not ready for it. I um...hope you've had sex already?"
"..." Maka can only stare at her. She can't even imagine what this witch has been going through. She nods her head to answer her. Then she keeps talking. It just gets worse.
"Oh good! Hopefully it won't hurt as bad. When they violate me it's not so bad. It's just...hard to stomach when they get the men they capture to do it you know? You just have to think of something else. It will be over. If they're really in a mood they get these terrible creatures to do it. That happens rarely though. No matter what you can't break! If you do they'll get rid of you-"
"That's sick." Maka snarls. "Where do they get off doing that shit to you? You got to get out of here."
"There's no way out." Mai shakes her head. "If you think like that, then they'll kill you-"
"Sorry Mai but I'm not a prisoner." Maka stands up, gripping her scythe. Mai blinks at her, tilting her head.
"You're not? But...you're like me. Are you in denial?"
"Tell me something Mai. Do you kill humans?"
"Oh no! I don't think I could pull it off even if I wanted too-"
"I'll bust you out of here." Maka grabs her necklace, the one her mother gave her. "My name is Maka Albarn. I'm a witch hunter. I'm here to kill all those witches that have done this to you. Once they're dead you will be free."
"Huh?" Mai blinks. She's looking at her like shes' grown another head. "A...witch hunter?" Suddenly her face turns pale. She falls on her ass and starts crawling back. Maka thought she was acting this way because she understood but- "Madam belle!" She gets on her knees and starts to bow.
Maka flips around. She didn't even sense this witch. Now that she's here, the air is crackling with magic. This witch has long white hair, with coal black eyes. Her hair and dress move as if she's in water. She's on the tip of her toes as if her body is weightless. This is the fourth witch. The one from the report.
Maka lifts up her scythe. She won't forgive her. She won't back down. She will kill this witch and save Mai from this hell.
She'll give it her all.
Thank you for the reviews!
