*awkwardly publishes an update*

Guys.

We are sooo sorry for the long wait. School and life issues have made writing slightly difficult. So in hopes that you guys don't hate us too much,

we post the much requested chapter of Spirit finding out.

Love you guys more than anything,

Lemon and Kiwi.

Enjoy, and please review.

Black Star had a keen ability to screw someone over like it was no body's business. Except, in Black Star's mind, someone's personal secret was EVERYBODY'S business. Consequently, it was no surprise that the rumors of Soul and Maka's "sexcapades" circulated the academy faster than you could blink.

Everyone in the school knew that there was always something off about their meister-weapon relationship, so when the rumors spread it wasn't much of a surprise to anybody.

Except one.

Once a certain red headed death scythe got word of the steamy sessions between his beloved daughter and her good for nothing weapon, Spirit Albarn was on a mission. The plan was really quite simple in his mind: for defiling his baby girl, Soul Evans was a dead man.

So, Maka and Soul sat in their classroom, ignoring the glances in their direction accompanied with hushed whispers and giggles.

"When will these fucking rumors die down, already?" growled a very irritated Soul.

"I have no idea. All I know is I'm going to end Black Star." was Maka's angry reply.

She ground her teeth together as she heard the blue-haired idiot giggling in the row behind her accompanied by Tsubaki's "Black Star hush! They can hear you!" which only made him laugh harder and louder.

Maka resisted the urge to throw the chair she was sitting in at his head, when Stein wheeled in, making all whispering of the scandalous adventures cease instantly.

Professor Stein eyed Maka and Soul briefly before cackling and grinning mischievously while lightly shaking his head.

Maka put her head on her desk in humiliation. Soul wanted to die right there. If Stein knew, it was only a matter of time before Spirit found out.

And when that happened, he was a dead man.

"So, have you heard? About Soul and Maka?" Said pair both snapped their attention to Ox Ford as he leaned over to talk in a hushed voice to his partner Harver.

The other boy huffed, already bored with where this conversation was going, "Of course I've heard, who hasn't?"

Ox shook his head, "No, no, not about that."

"Then what is it?" Harver glanced over at his meister as a wicked grin spread across Ox's face.

"Spirit found out."

Maka blanched.

Soul felt his heart stop beating.

As if on cue, Spirit silently walked through the door, an expression of malice and promised pain on his face. He glanced up at his daughter and her partner, pointed at both of them, then pointed to the hall, and silently walked out the door.

Everyone turned around to look at them, grins on their faces and mischief in their eyes.

Soul was as white as a ghost, while Maka was as red as a tomato.

"What do we do?" Maka didn't dare look at her partner, knowing full well that the panic on his face was identical to what her expression probably looked like.

Soul calmed his voice as much as possible.

"I say," he began slowly, "we go out the window."

"We can't do that!" Maka glanced at the window, weighing the possibility of escape. "He'll most likely find out! He knows where we live, Soul!"

"Then," he set his face in determination, "we'll barricade the front door, and all the windows."

"He's a Death Scythe, you really think that's going to work?"

"We'll get Blair to put up a barrier around the apartment."

"Right, and after that why don't we all put on clogs and do a Highland Dance. I'm telling you, it's not going to work!"

Soul could barely move his lips to form a reply before an enraged yell from the hallway cut off their argument.

"SOUL EVANS, YOU GET YOUR SLIMY ASS OUT HERE RIGHT NOW, YOU BASTARD." Yelled Spirit from the hallway.

Maka and Soul looked at each other before looking toward the window.

"AND DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT TRYING TO ESCAPE THROUGH THE WINDOW."

"Shit." Soul muttered as everybody in the class giggled, Black Star doing his naturally obnoxious laugh while Tsubaki looked at them with worried eyes. Kid only sighed before shaking his head and huffing out 'idiots', Liz and Patty attempting to conceal their snorts of amusement with coughs.

The pair made their way down the steps, heads hanging low before reaching the doorway.

Stein patted the two on the shoulder while quietly muttering an amused "it was nice knowin' you two" as they walked out the door to meet their fate.

After they closed the door behind them, they turned to look at Spirit's enraged and disturbingly terrifying face.

"Now, I want to hear YOUR side of the story behind these rumors." he began calmly. "Are they true?"

Both remained silent, unsure of how to answer the question AND still escape with their lives. They could always lie; say the rumors were false, just tidbits of gossip that someone had thought would be funny to spread around. However, there were eyewitnesses. More specifically, a blue haired ninja who did not know how to keep his mouth shut, and, knowing Spirit, he would probably hunt down every bit of information he could about this before letting this thing slide.

If they told the truth though, Spirit would murder Soul on the spot before mounting his head on a spear and putting it up in the front of the school for the whole academy to see that trying anything with Maka would result in either death or castration. Not to mention, he would probably lock his daughter up in a padded room for the rest of her life.

So, they did the only thing they could do.

They stayed silent.

Spirit however, took this silence as a confirmation.

Spirit directed his glare completely toward Soul now, and as Spirit silently slaughtered Soul in his mind, Maka realized that they wouldn't be in this situation if it hadn't been for her jumping him in the garage.

Soul didn't deserve to die alone in this. It was almost completely her fault for starting this.

"Papa," she began quietly.

"What." He glared hard at her and she hesitated.

"It's not his fault. I started this mess." she said quietly.

"...huh? That's impossible." Spirit growled. "Oi! Octopus head! What kind of plan are you scheming by making my Maka take the blame?" Spirit grabbed Soul's shirt collar and bared his teeth in his face. "I swear I'm going to kill you-"

"PAPA!" Maka yanked her father off of her partner and stepped in between them, eyes narrowed in anger as they watched the red head fall flat on his butt in the middle of the hallway. "I told you! I was the one that started everything!"

"…what?" came Spirit's unintelligent response.

"I started it!" she yelled in rage.

A faint "OHHHHHH" could be heard from the classroom.

"What do you mean you started it?" Spirit asked nervously. His beloved baby daughter couldn't possibly be telling him that she was the instigator.

Maka sighed in exasperation, placing her hands on her hips and closing her eyes. "I MEAN, I'm the one who started it. It's pretty self explanatory Papa."

Soul felt a cold sweat starting as he could tell where this conversation was headed.

"I don't understand, how could you possibly have done something like that, my angel? And with that...that... JELLYFISH!" Spirit cried.

Maka ignored the annoyed "Hey!" that came from the boy behind her and opened her eyes, jaw set, anger at its peak.

"I MEAN I'M THE ONE WHO JUMPED HIM FIRST PAPA. ALRIGHT?"

The classroom echoed with chuckles, woots and whistles as Maka's father gaped openly.

Then, silence.

"...MAAAKAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Spirit wailed as he clung to the leg of his only daughter who in return gave him a completely disgusted look. "WHYYY MAKA? DADDY LOVES YOU SO MUCH! I RAISED YOU RIGHT DIDN'T I? WHYY-" his crying was abruptly cut off as a massive copy of "The Theory of Evolution" smashed into his head, leaving a rather large and painful looking indent.

"I always raised you with the best example to not become like your Papa..." wept Spirit as he laid in a defeated heap.

"Well THAT sure-as-hell didn't keep her out of my boxers..." drawled Soul.

Maka swiftly turned towards him, her expression that of horror and disgust, and slammed the book into his face, throwing him onto his ass as the class echoed with a series of "Oh burn!" and "Oh SNAAAP!"

"Watch yourself, Octopus head!" yelled Spirit from the floor as Soul nursed his aching jaw. "I'm still gonna kill you for defiling my little angel!"

"Oh please! She was MORE than willing! Probably even more than I was!" replied Soul.

Their argument stopped suddenly as they felt the menacing aura radiating off of the pigtailed blonde crawl over their skin. Both men looked up to see the rage filled expression that practically screamed malice and murderous intent, neither could get another word out before the 400 page book smashed into both their heads, knocking them unconscious and spattering the hallway with blood.

Maka walked away with a huff, muttering 'morons' under her breath as she wiped her book off and marched back into the classroom. Stein looked at the gory scene with mild amusement, pulling out a cigarette and lighting it before turning around and wheeling himself back into his room.

"Well, we can see who wears the pants here." he chuckled darkly as he shut the door.

And that's it! Hope you guys liked it!

We've kind of hit a stand-still with Secrets, so if you guys have any ideas, PM me.

Much love,

Lemon and Kiwi
