Phont: Yeah, it's been so long that I forgot what was happening. What was Harry doing last time? Was he fishing?
Rocket: I think he was too busy not existing in the world of Soul Eater to go fishing.
Phont: Oh yeah... SOUL EATER! Wasn't stein killing someone?
Rocket: Never mind. Enjoy the chapter!
"SOOOOUL!" A boy with ridiculously blue hair burst into the infirmary, knocking the door off of its hinges. Loki had jumped under his covers the moment he heard footsteps on the other side of the door, and was out of the way just barely in time to avoid getting doored in the face. He silently congratulated himself on his reflexes. The boy with the blue hair rushed to the boy called Soul, grabbing him by the shoulders.
"SOUL! ARE YOU OK? TALK TO ME!
"Ung..." Soul moaned, shifting in his sleep.
"Maka..." A tone that filled those who knew it with dread.
"LET ME HEAR YOU SAY MY NAME!
"Chop!"
"OW!" The blue-haired-Thor-clone (As Loki had silently dubbed him) fell to the ground, nursing his head. Thor wondered briefly if the girl was in any way related to Lord Death. Maka stepped over the boy and fixed Soul's sheets. In the silence, Soul began to snore.
"Oh... did you get hurt again, Blackstar?" A girl entered, stepping over the fallen door.
Blackstar? Loki mentally snorted, Is that supposed to be a name?
"Ugh..." Moaned the unfortunately named child.
"He was going to reopen Souls wounds!" Maka said.
"Sorry about that," the new girl replied before turning to the blue-haired (bluenette?) on the floor. "Blackstar," she said sternly," what do you have to say for yourself?"
"I just wanted to cheer him up! He would have been sad if he didn't get his daily dose of Blackstar!"
"Maka...
"Oh dear."
"Chop!"
"OW!"
"Sorry again..." the girl said.
"You don't have to apologize. Thanks for coming, Tsubaki." Loki was suddenly crushed when something landed on him.
"OW" the weight lifted off of him again. "There's something sharp under there!" Then Loki went flying.
"AHHHHH!" Loki landed head-first near the open door. "WHAT THE HELL!" He shouted angrily as he righted himself. "Watch it!"
"OH YEAH?" The boy yelled, raising a fist, "WELL... WATCH WHERE YOU PUT YOUR SKINNY LITTLE BONES! IT'S YOUR FAULT FOR BEING SO SCRAWNY!"
"MAKA CHOP!"
"OW!"
"OW!"
Both Blackstar and Loki received impacts from Maka's heavy book.
"Why me?"
"Both of you, behave!" Maka demanded.
"...Yes'm..." Both boys replied.
"Ung..." Soul grunted, his snoring stopping.
"Is he..."
"Shhhhhhh!" Both girls hissed. Soul started snoring again. A silence followed, as the girls stared down the boys, daring them to say something.
WHAMP! The other door (there were two) was thrown off it's hinges, landing on top of the first.
BROTHER, I HAVE JUST RECEIVED THE MOST WONDERFUL NEWS!"
"shhhhhhhhh"
"Brother, " Thor whispered in what Loki assumed was his lowest volume setting (which was somewhere around 'dull roar' " I have just received the most wonderful news!"
"Not now, thor!" loki hissed.
"but I-" Thor whined back.
"No."
"But-"
"No."
"What happened to my doors?" Dr. medusa cried.
"Shhhhhh!"
"Oh... He's still resting," she said, sounding slightly embarrassed, "I'll come back later."
"thank you" maka whispered, then she motioned for them to follow her out. Thor carfully propped the doors up in their frames as he left, looking sheepish.
"um... thank you?" Said Loki.
"you are welcome, brother." Thor replied in his 'modestly heroic' voice. loki rolled his eyes.
"Now then," Maka said, clapping her hands together. "I haven't properly introduced you four yet." Maka said, "Thor and Loki, this is Blackstar and Tsubaki. Blackstar and Tsubaki, this is Thor and Loki."
"That's right! I'm Blackstar, the man who will surpass God!"
"Uh... you mean gods, right?" Loki said.
"Huh? Who cares! If there are lots, I'll- just beat the crap out of all of them!" Loki wasn't sure what the insane boy would do if he told him that he was a god, but he was sure that it would be violent. Loki wasn't in the mood for violence. But Thor was.
"I'd like to see you try!"
"Hold on,"
Please no. Loki thought, desperately elbowing Thor in an attempt to avoid the inevitable
"What's that? You have a god for me to fight?" Blackstar said, shoving a finger into Thor's face.
"Boys..."
"Can you not see?"
Loki intensified his elbowing.
"You have two right here!" Thor said, batting away Loki's elbow and throwing a brotherly arm around his shoulder.
NONONONONONONONO
"THAT'S IT! I'm challenging you to a fight!"
"NO!" Loki shouted, "no, we're fine..."
"Come on, I'll take both of you on at once!"
"Maka..." said Maka. Everyone in the room fell silent. "Good, that's better." Maka took a deep breath. "Now, boys, I know that I can't stop you from fighting."
"YES!" Cried Blackstar.
"That's why I'm sending you to find a teacher to supervise the fight."
"Awww.. but I want to fight now!"
"NO! You. Teacher. Outside."
"Yes'm."
A teacher was found and a place set. Apperently, the surgeon that had stitched up the Soul boy was also a teacher. Loki supposed that it made some sort of sense. He was sitting backwards (at least Loki assumed that it was backwards. He really couldn't be sure in this bizarre universe.) on a chair that was mounted on wheels. He still didn't seem to mind that there was a screw stabbed through his head. Damn bizarre universe. Thor also didn't seem to care about the screw. Damn bizarre brother.
"Are you two ready?" The teacher asked, facing Blackstar and Tsubaki. For some reason the one-on-one that Loki had expected and hoped for between Thor and Blackstar had become a two-on-two, with Tsubaki (poor girl) and Loki being dragged in. Blackstar responded with a raucous affirmative, and Tsubaki nodded. Then Tsubaki disappeared in a flash of light.
"Where'd she go?" Was Loki's immediate and natural response. Everyone looked at him like he was an idiot, Thor included. Being looked at like this by Thor was a bit of a slap in the face for obvious reasons. "What?" Another flash of light, and Thor was gone. Loki's arms suddenly felt heavier. He looked down. In his hands was a long-handled, double-sided battle-axe. Loki did what always did when confronted with a weapon. He threw the axe away.
"OW!" The axe said. In Thor's voice. The axe. Said. "What'd you do that for, Brother?"
"What are you- why are you- how are you-" Loki gibbered, "you're an AXE. Why are you an axe?"
Sniggering was beginning to break out among the onlookers.
"...Why not? I think it's cool."
More snigering.
"That's not the- You're an axe!"
Some people were beginning to laugh in earnest.
"You noticed."
Blackstar was on the ground in tears, clutching his sides.
"But- nevermind." Loki gave up, turning to the teacher. "So what am I supposed to do now?" He asked.
"You fight." The teacher said over the laughter. "Pick him up." Loki picked the axe-Thor, he corrected himself- and faced the laughing Blackstar.
This has got to be the strangest thing I have ever done, Loki thought. Then he remembered the whole Sleipnir ordeal, and he revised his opinion.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAA" blackstar ran head first towards loki. loki braced himself for impact, awkwardly readying Thor's heavy form.
"HAAAAAAA" blackstar launched one end of the chain-scythe-Tsubaki towards Loki. Loki jumped to the right, narrowly avoiding the blade. Loki thanked god (figuratively of course) for his reflexes.
"HUUUUAAAA" the boy swept his chain-thing wide, and Loki ducked.
"Why won't you use me, brother?" Thor asked, "I'm your weapon!"
"Well it's not my fault you're so hopelessly big. I'm waiting for the right moment!" He was interrupted by another head-on attack. The boy charged forward, his weapon somehow shifted form to a large metal star. Loki used Thor to catapult himself into the air, over the boy. He let Thor plant himself into the ground with a thud as he landed behind Blackstar.
"STOP AVOIDING MY ATTACKS AND FIGHT ME!" Blackstar roared, "OR ARE YOU TOO SCARED TO FIGHT SOMEONE AS BIG AS I AM? COS' I COULD UNDERSTAND IF YOU'RE TOO INTIMIDATED BY MY GOD-LIKE STRENGTH!" He taunted, "PRETTY PATHETIC GOD IF YOU ASK ME! THERE'S NO WAY YOU COULD BET A GUY LIKE ME! I COULD SNAP YOU IN HALF IF I WANTED TO!"
"ENOUGH!" loki shouted over Blackstar's rant, hefting Thor over his shoulder and immediatly lamenting the bruise that would form where the axe rested later.
" OH WHAT YOU ARE YOU SCARED, LITTLE GOD BOY? WELL TO BAD, I'M GOING TO MMMPH!" Blackstar was cut off when Loki hit him in the face with the flat of Thor's blade, knocking him a few inches into the air before falling flat on his back.
" BLACK STAR" Tsubaki quickly shifted back to her human form. Human being a relative term, Loki noted to himself.
She rushed over to Blackstar and started to panic. Maka ran over to the blue-haired boy, the 'teacher' casually following her to the boy and started to diagnose the boy's condition.
"There's a pulse. No major injuries as far as i can tell, but a concussion is a possibility, even as thick as his skull is. That's quite an axe." a slight smile flitted across his face as he pulled out a cigarette and lit it in his mouth.
"Not any major injuries? He has a concussion!" Maka shouted indignantly.
"well all have to do more tests to be sure, but he got hit pretty hard back there."
"oh dear."
"uuuuugh..what..hap..en...g...m...s...o..u..l...y. .o...m..a...y...b...e..g..e..th..r...f..o..r...e.. d..e..r...
"Um..." Maka said
"blackstar! Are you ok?" Tsubaki
"t.u...n..g...f..e..l...w..i..r..d..?" Blackstar began snoring
"I'll talk to Dr. Medusa, and we'll figure something out," said Stein.
"thank you so much , I don't know what i would do without him," Tsubaki said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of him," Stein said. It would have been more reassuring, Loki thought, if he hadn't decided to begin rotating his bolt-thing as he was saying it.
cLiCk ClIcK cLiCk ClIcK
It was highly unsettling.
"You two better stay out of trouble," he said over his shoulder as he walked off the boy in his arms.
Thanks for reading. Drop us a review on the way out please! See you in less time than a month next time hopefully.
