As the six of them were tearing through the zombies, Death the Kid was arriving back at his home and opened the front door.
"I made it in record time. Now to check the toilet paper and the picture frame." He said to himself.
It was the most important thing possible right now and nothing could be more important to Death the Kid!
'Liz and Patty will be fine, I'm certain of it.' Kid thought as he headed to the bathroom first.
Perfectly clean and perfectly scented, everything in its proper place. Even the toilet paper was properly folded in a perfect triangle at the end.
"Ah, it must of been my imagination after all." Kid said, sighing in relief.
Death the Kid then went off to check on the portrait, grabbing a roll of measuring tape along the way, and using it against the frame to make sure it's perfectly level and a perfect distance from the ground.
"Perfectly Symmetrical. As always." Kid said with a smile.
'I guess I was worrying myself for nothing. I really can be so silly sometimes.' He thought as he let out of the tape and rolled it up. 'Better head back to the pyramid then, I did leave Liz and Patty in a sticky situation. But I'm sure they're fine.'
Meanwhile back at the pyramid, Maka had shot the head off the last mummy and ended the somewhat long fight.
'Longest 10 minutes of my life' Maka thought as Liz and Soul turned back to humans.
"That was so cool! Maybe you should develop a gun transformation, Tsubaki." Black Star said as Tsubaki and Patty turned human.
"That's not how it works, Black Star. And no ninja uses a gun, they're too loud and lack grace." Tsubaki said before looking to Patty. "No offense, sorry."
Patty didn't care, she was just happy about how fun that fight was!
"It's cool!" Patty said with a thumbs up.
"Okay, now that all the mummies are dead again, how do we divide up the loot?" Soul asked, gesturing to all the kishen souls around them.
"I say we divide by kills. Who ever killed it, gets it." Black Star said.
"No, we need to divide them equally because if Kid finds out we didn't, he'll have another mental meltdown." Liz said, crossing her arms.
The looks she got from Maka, Soul, Black Star, and Tsubaki made her continue.
"Yes, he is THAT hard to handle." Liz said.
"Okay…..then how many did we kill exactly? I wasn't keeping count." Soul said.
"I was, we killed 48." Patty said while raising her hand.
"You huh?" Black Star asked, turning to her.
"It's a talent of hers, Patty's always been good with keeping count." Liz said with a small grin.
"Yeah! Someone has to do it for Kid!" Patty said with a dumb grin.
"Okay. So that means each of us gets 12 kishin souls each." Tsubaki said as she reached out and grabbed one.
"Sounds fair to me." Soul said as he also grabbed one.
"Let's gather then quickly before the necromancer makes more of them." Maka said.
Soul and Tsubaki nodded to Maka as they began eating the souls one at a time, with Soul eating them with his wide mouth while Tsubaki sort of ate them like you were deflating a balloon.
"So that's how other weapons eat them." Patty said, watching them eat.
"Yeah, don't try that, Patty." Liz said.
"But why?" Patty asked.
"You don't know what could happen if you eat them that way. Besides, our way is quicker." Liz said, holding her hand out.
"I guess that makes sense." Patty said as she turned into a gun, landing in Liz's hand.
She pulled out Patty's mag and sucked the souls in.
'So that's how they eat them.' Maka thought, watching them.
'Weird but they must've gotten a lot of kills to be able to do that.' Black Star thought.
Once the souls were gathered and the weapon partners turned back into weapons, the group began to head deeper into the pyramid.
The torches on the wall began to lit up, lightning the way for all of them but it made them worried about the necromancer. They might know the meisters and weapons are already there.
They followed the torches and found themselves in front of the pharaoh's sarcophagus at the center of the pyramid.
"Well that's the mummy, but where's the Necromancer?" Soul asked.
Looking around, Maka wasn't looking where she was going before she stepped into a puddle of blood.
"... I think I found her." She said grimly.
Everyone turns to Maka and gasped at the puddle of blood at her foot.
"AAAAAH! Blood!" Liz screamed as she hugged herself in the weapon void.
"Did the necormancer offer herself as a sacrifice?" Tsubaki asked as she looked worried at the sarcophagus.
"No, Necromancers don't do things like that." Maka said before gazing at the sarcophagus with a mix of fear and rage. "The Pharaoh regained his mind and did it."
Right as Maka said that, the eyes of the ancient coffin started glowing. Making the weapon partners quickly turn into weapons for their partners' hands.
"Uuuuuuh." The mummy let out, shocking everyone as bandage wraps slowly came from his coffin. "More souls to consume."
The wraps launched at them as Maka was quickly and swung Soul to cut them.
"So you still hungry, huh?! How about a taste of Black Star?!" Black Star shouted as he slashed Tsubaki at the bandages and fires Patty at the sarcophagus.
The energy bullets didn't do much.
"Black Star, we need a new strategy!" Tsubaki said to her partner.
"Alright, let's switch it up! Tsubaki, Chain Scythe mode!" Black Star shouted.
"Right!"Tsubaki said as she changed and Black Star threw one part of her.
That half of the chain scythe ricocheted all around the room, slicing up the mummy wraps that tried to attack them.
"We need to get the mummy out of his coffin!" Maka shouted.
"How?" Liz asked.
"Maka, what if you hit it with an Impact Strike?" Soul suggested.
"But that... you know what would happen if I did that." Maka said.
Soul grit his teeth as he glanced at Liz, who was in Maka's other hand. Using Impact Strike would mean she lowers her soul protect and reveal to the Thompson sisters that she was a witch.
"... It may be the only option since we can't charge up for Witch Hunter." Soul said, before noticing something, "Maka, watch out!"
Maka looked to the left and saw multiple wraps heading towards her! She tried to slash and fire at them, but was too slow and they slammed into her.
"GUH!" Maka grunts.
"MAKA!" Soul and Liz shouted as they flew out of her hands!
The mummy then wrapped Maka in the bandages, trapping her.
"Black Star, Maka needs help!" Tsubaki shouted.
"Quick! Back to Shuriken mode!" Black Star said.
Tsubaki became a large shuriken and Black Star threw her at the bandages.
SLASH!
Maka's wrapped body was dropped to the floor, making her grunt in pain as she found her air cut off while Soul became human.
"I'm coming, Maka!" Soul said, grabbing gun/Liz to use.
He dodged random wraps and shot at the bandages, hoping that it would release Maka.
"I've toned down the bullets so they only sting Maka!" Liz said to Soul.
"Thanks!" Soul said as Black Star backed him up to make sure no bandages wrapped him up.
A "bullet" grazed her mouth as the bandages tore off, letting her breathe again.
"Thanks!" She said as Soul came to a stop before her.
"Don't thank me yet!" Soul said as he turned his arm into his scythe blade and slashed at the rest of the wrappings.
"Leave the mummy to me, Soul! Get Maka!" Black Stair said as he ran faster, blitzing around the room to slash through and shot more bandages!
'YEAH! We got this!' Patty screamed.
'Ugh, when is Kid getting back?!' Liz yelled, 'We could really use him.'
Meanwhile, back at the front of the pyramid, Kid was returning from his small moment of panic.
"Alright, time to rejoin the mission." He said to himself.
He rode his skateboard through the entrance. He glanced around for any signs of them, not seeing much destruction to the temple.
'Good, they're making sure the temple remains intact.' Kid thought before he heard what sounded like a battle.
"There they are! I better hurry!" Kid shouted as he kicked off, skating dashed than before to reach them.
Back in the Pharaoh's center room, Maka and Blackstar were getting tired.
No matter how many bandage wraps they destroy, more just seem to appear. And the main body was still inside of the sarcophagus, safe and unharmed.
'If only we could use a resonance attack or my magic.' Maka thought as she glanced at the Thompson sisters again.
She had no clue of what to do, and it frustrated her.
"Maka, cover me! I'm going to try my Big Wave!" Black Star said as he clenched his hand.
'But you can't get close enough!' Tsubaki said to him.
"It might be our only option." Maka said.
'And if that fails, I'll have no choice but to use my magic.' Maka thought.
"TSUBAKI! PATTY!" Black Star said, throwing them both back. "Cover me!"
Tsubaki turned back it human as she caught Patty, firing to give Black Star cover as the loud ninja ran at the sarcophagus.
'Alright you ugly mummy, let's see what you really look like!' Black Star thought as he dashed in a burst of speed.
Before the mummy knew it, Black Star was in front of it with his arms ready to attacking!
"BIG WAVE!" Black Star shouted as he slammed his fist and elbow into the sarcophagus!
The sarcophagus cracked all over from the attack.
"UGH!" The mummy groaned, feeling the shock of the wavelength attack!
"Oh yeah! Just one more should do it!" Black Star shouted.
That's when all the bandages went towards Black Star, sending him flying back!
"BLACK STAR!" Tsubaki shouted in shock.
Tsubaki rushed to help before bandages attacked her, wrapping her up and dropping Patty.
"No!" Maka said, seeing them in trouble, "Damn it! Soul Protect, release!"
'Soul protect?' Liz and Patty thought.
Maka's body gave off a white glow before it faded, making her glare at the mummy!
"Impact Strike!" Maka shouted, charging magic into her fist.
She ran towards it, but it knocked her back as well.
'Maka!' Soul shouted at her.
"I'm fine! Vector Plate!" Maka shouted as a white arrow appeared behind her.
She stepped on it and was sent at the mummy at high speed!
'HOLY SHIT!' Liz shouted as Maka sliced through several bandages with Soul!
'One more!' Maka thought as she charged up her attack again!
"Impact Stirke!" Maka shouted as she punched the sarcophagus, cracking it even more!
'What is this thing made of!?' Maka thought, wincing from the punch she used.
It couldn't be stone or metal, but something of a mix as Maka jumped back from more bandages!
'The necormancer either enhanced the coffin or that thing was made to keep the mummy INSIDE!' Maka thought as she landed.
"ENOUGH!" The mummy shouted as the room shook from his voice.
His sarcophagus began to shake, cracking and crumbling before them as the wrapping wee all pulled back and Tsubaki was dropped to the floor.
The Pharoah came out into the light, his eyes glowing with magic and bloodlust.
"I will crush you all with my own hands!" He said as everyone gazed at his true form.
The pharaoh didn't have a human shape, he had more like a half-human and half worm body while one of his hands was shaped like a hammer. He sported a golden lower garment with black stripes. He seemed to have a separate model head attached to one side, sporting black hair and red eyes. His face was oval-shaped and has three golden spikes coming off of it with a striped cane-like object in his mouth. He also possesses only one eye and on his forehead is a small disc with a smiling face design.
'What the hell kind of mummy is this?!' Liz shouted in shock.
'Wow! He's so ugly!' Patty said with a giggle.
"What the hell is this?"
Everyone but the mummy jolted as they turned around to see Kid standing in his skateboard with a look of shock and horror on his face.
'Nice of you to join the mission!' Liz shouted.
'It's no fun without you, Kid!' Patty shouted.
Death the Kid didn't seem to hear them as he was focused on the mummy, staring at his true form compared to his sarcophagus a moment ago.
"What a disgusting creation." The Pharaoh said, looking down at the son of death.
"Me….you call me disgusting?" Kid asked before looking infuriated. "But you are HORRENDOUS!"
Maka, Soul, Black Star, and Tsubaki were surprised from this whole Liz and Patty smirked.
'It's all over now.' Liz said.
'Kid's angry now!' Patty said.
"What kind of being are you!? It's as if symmetry has never even crossed your mind! Whatever deity designed you deserves to be dug up from his grave, shot, and reburied!" Kid said, ranting and becoming angrier by the second.
Kid disappeared in a burst of speed, taking Liz and Patty from Maka and Black Star, before appearing in front of the pharaoh again!
"The only thing about you that doesn't make me sick is that jewel in your forehead! Something you don't deserve along with your life!" Kid shouted before unleashing a barrage of soul bullets at the pharaoh!
'Woah, he's insanely powerful.' Everyone but Liz and Patty thought.
"Die! Die! Die! Die! DIE! DIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIEDIE! DIE!" Kid shouted as he somehow unleashed a giant energy beam and blew a whole through the pyramid!
Smoke filled the room before it slowly cleared, revealing the single kishin soul egg floating before Kid as the symmetrical gem rolled to his feet.
"... I feel much better now." Kid said with a smile.
'………He destroys a temple just to feel better?' Soul said with wide eyes.
"Yeah……I guess so." Maka said as she was still shocked by how much power Kid was hiding.
'Damn. That's impressive.' Maka thought.
'No wonder he's a grim reaper, HE WICKED POWERFUL!' Black Star thought as his new goal was to surpass Kid before surpassing Lord Death.
"Well, I believe this mission is over." Kid said.
"Yep, with one last kishin soul to claim." Soul said as he turned human next to Maka. "So, who gets it?"
"Probably the person that destroyed the thing." Maka said.
Kid paused for a moment as he gazed at the destruction he caused and looked at the SINGLE kishen soul egg floating where the pharaoh used to be.
"……We'll take it back to the DWMA and let my father keep it until we get another mission." He said as the Thompson sisters became human.
"If only you didn't have to worry about some dumb painting, this could've been a lot easier." Liz said.
"Yeah. You would've been fine." Patty said, slapping Kid's shoulder!
Suddenly, the pyramid started shaking.
"Oh great, what now?!" Soul shouted at the shaking.
"The pyramid is falling apart! Kid's rampage must've done it!" Tsubaki said as Black Star helped her up.
"It will take too long to get back to the entrance!" Liz said.
"Then I'll make one!" Maka said, running towards a wall, "Impact strike!"
Maka's magic punish smashed through wall, making an exit for them to slide/run down the pyramid!
'Did she just use magic?!' Kid thought as he could sense it.
"Come on!" Maka shouted as she jumped out.
Black Star and Tsubaki wasted little time following.
"Move it, Mr. Symmetry!" Soul said as he ran.
"Come on before we're crushed!" Liz said, pulling Kid and her sister to the new exit.
"Not without this!" Kid said as he grabbed the kishin soul.
Outside of the pyramid, everyone slid down the wall at high speed.
"YAHOOOOO! Now this is an exit fit for Black Star!" Black Star shouted in glee.
"Ahahahahahahaha! This is really fun!" Patty shouted with her hands up.
They made it to the sand below right as the pyramid collapsed.
Everyone but Kid let out a sigh of relief, glancing at the reaper as he stared at the destruction HE caused.
"………I have robbed the world of a sacred treasure." He said, falling to his hands.
"Yeah, well, at least we're alive." Soul said, dusting off some sand.
"And we got a good amount of kishin souls. I'd say that's a good mission." Black Star said.
"Um, but won't those souls be taken from us since the pyramid is destroyed?" Tsubaki asked.
"Those are the rules. But maybe his dad will just take ours since Kid was the one who destroyed the pyramid." Liz said.
"Possibly and I will gladly accept that punishment. Now, I believe we should get back." Kid said, before looking at Maka, "We have a lot to talk about."
Maka let out a sigh as she dreaded this would happen.
Death the Kid now knew Maka was a witch, and he possibly might not be as lenient as his father.
"Yeah, there is a lot to talk about. And you'll get a full explanation on the way back." Maka said.
"Yeah, but first let's get back to that limo. I could use a new nap on the drive back." Soul said as he looked around for the grim reaper's limo.
Though they were all exhausted and in need of relaxation from this mission, they all couldn't help but wonder how Lord Death would punish them for destroying the pyramid.
