Chapter 20

Hey guys.... does it bug anyone else that ppl always say that DTK had symmetry when the lines in his hair connected in the fight with Asura but they don't realize that he has a cowlick on one side and not the other? Cuz it bugs the crap out of me.

Maka's POV

Black Star had run in to get Tsubaki, and I had just found Soul. I had jumped in, hoping Crona could find at least one of the others without getting caught. I quickly started to untie Soul, and surprisingly, nobody stopped me when Soul regained enough consciousness to turn into a scythe and I stepped into the hallway, to see Black Star and Tsubaki had done the same.

"Where's Kid?" Black Star asked.

"I don't know." I told him, as Crona walked out of a room with Patty. "Let's split up. Each group just looks in different rooms to see if they can find anyone."

"Okay." Crona replied.

"Whatever." Black Star said, and we all headed to different directions. I went into a door close by, only to get yanked into the room with the door closing behind me.

"What the-" I shouted before the person who yanked me into the room put a hand over my mouth.

"Be quiet! If Sierra finds us in here we're dead!" he whispered. I looked at who the voice belonged to, seeing Mikey there.

"Are you okay?" I asked him.

"I'm fine. Where's everyone else?" Mikey asked.

"We're trying to figure that out." Soul said. "We have no clue what happened to your dad or Gerard."

"And we won't know if we just sit in this room." I said. "Let's get out of here. Just follow close behind us and you should be fine."

"O-okay" Mikey stuttered.

"Don't worry, Mikey. Your mom literally defeated Asura with a punch. You'll be fine." Soul reassured him.

Gerards POV

I woke up to see two unconscious guys laying on the ground, one of them looking bloody as hell. I could already tell the bloody one was dead, but there was something off about the other. He looked like nothing was wrong with him, like he just collapsed out of nowhere. I could see his soul was there, so I knew he had to be alive, but every other sign pointed to him being dead.

He had three stripes on his left side, just like mine, and the rest was black hair. he looked exactly like the guy I had always seen looming over me in my dreams, and so did the other, except the stripes were on the opposite side.

"What the hell happened here?" I thought out loud.

"Nice to see you're awake, Gerard." I heard Sierra say behind me. "How does it feel seeing your father laying there dead?"

"He's not dead...." I said. "I can see his soul."

"I guess I'll have to fix that." Sierra replied.

"You wouldn't!" I yelled. "Are you really heartless enough to kill your own son?"

"Do you not see what happened to his brother?" Sierra asked.

"What will it take for you to not kill him?" I asked. I didn't know why I cared so much. All my life I had imagined that when I met my father I would hat his guts, but now that he's lying on the ground dying, and I know I was kidnapped, I guess I couldn't help but forgive him, since he didn't actually abandon me.

"Why do you seem to care for him so much? What has he ever done for you?" Sierra asked

"He's my father!  without him I wouldn't be alive!" I yelled. "He hasn't ever done anything for me because he's never had the chance because you kidnapped me!"

"You don't even know any of my reasons!" Sierra shouted.

"There's no logical reason to kidnap someone!" I looked at Sierra like she was crazy, mostly because she was.

"Like you would know?!?!" Sierra screamed, making me jump back a bit. She started walking towards me and I backed up until I was pressed against the wall.

Black Star's POV

Tsubaki and I walking down a random hallway, a different one than earlier, and I heard a large thud against a wall.

"What was that?" I asked, turning towards the thud.

"I don't know, maybe we should check it out." Tsubaki replied. "It could be one of the kids."

"Let's go then." I replied.

I cracked the door open a little bit and saw Kid passed out on the floor and Sierra walking towards the wall, completely unaware of the door being open. I cracked it open a bit further  to see one of the kids (I'm guessing Gerard by his green eyes and black hair with three white stripes) against the wall with an expression of pure fear on his face. His entire body was shaking a lot, and I wouldn't blame him. That woman had just somehow apparently taken Death the Kid and Joseph, who I was just now noticing, down. Even without Liz and Patty, or really any death scythe for that matter, he was still a scary good fighter.

"I used to be the most powerful death scythe until people found out I was a witch!" Sierra screamed. "I become different kinds of weapons by eating weapon souls! The only reason any of you are alive at this point is because of the fact that your a lousy good for nothing meister that would rat me out if I killed the other three!"

"Are you stupid enough to just not kill me too?" Gerard said, which made me want to slap him for even giving her that idea.

"If I killed you too, I wouldn't get anything from it. Sure, I could do it, but there's some weapon blood in you. I've been waiting for you to learn how to use it first." Sierra replied pressing him even further into the wall, and I heard Gerard gulp really loudly, and he shut his eyes tightly, as if he knew the next thing that was coming out of his mouth was stupid or he was expecting to get beaten up. I decided to walk in before he made anything  worse for himself.

"Leave him alone, Sierra!" I shouted. "None of this is his fault, it's yours!"

"You're right. If I had just cast the spell to kill Kid right in the first place none of this would have happened." Sierra shouted.

"He looks pretty dead to me..." I thought out loud.

"That's not what she's talking about. And he's alive, I can see it." Gerard stated, just before Kid started stirring. He started to push himself up, and seemed like he was extremely high while he was doing so, since he collapsed a few times before he successfully got up.  I could have helped, but Sierra looked at me like if I had moved a muscle she would kill me. I understood why Gerard was shaking so much. When someone gave you that ice cold stare it would scare anyone.

"Y-You didn't k-kill me by k-killing Joseph." Kid stuttered, also sounding high as hell.

"How the heck would her killing Joseph kill you?" I asked.

"I split is soul in half just after he was born, which created Joseph." Sierra explained. "It was supposed to kill him."

"Why would you do that?" I asked from sheer curiosity.

"With him around it was easier for his father and Stein to track me down." Sierra explained, sighing because she was obviously annoyed by my questioning.

"Well, if you take Kid from him of course he's going to-" I started.

"She's my mother you idiot." Kid stated, suddenly sounding sober again. "She didn't take me away she left while she was still pregnant."

"And did your father seem to care what would happen to you before you were born? He still set Stein after me!" Sierra yelled.

"They made sure I was born before they tried to kill you!" Kid yelled. "Don't pull some kind of 'he doesn't care about you' crap! He's almost died to protect me on several occasions!"

"Then why did you run away when you were a child?" Sierra asked.

"That has nothing to do with it!!" Kid yelled, and Patty and Crona came running in.

"Patty I need you to turn into a gun. Now." Kid said, not even moving his head.

"But what about Liz?" Patty asked.

"I don't care about symmetry right now. I need a weapon." Kid said.

"Damn 18 years ago you never would have heard those words come from your mouth." I said.

"Just shut up and help me get rid of this stupid witch." Kid said, giving Sierra the death stare.
