Chance Of A Life Time

Chapter 4

Spirit walked the halls with a trail of new weapons and meisters behind him. He tried to be happy but Maka's face kept on popping into his mind at inconvenient times making it difficult to be happy all the time in front of the new weapons and meisters. He was showing them to the boys dormitory if both weapon and meisters were boys, Marie was taking the girls and Stine was taking mixed partners to the apartment block which Maka and Soul lived in. The new students started in september but were settling in just fine. Spirit walked back to the death room and ate lunch with the rest of the teachers. He kept on looking at the mirror in the room which Lord Death was stood in front of. It soon started beeping and Spirit quickly stood up tiping his food onto the floor.

"Is that Maka?" He asked without a second thought. Stine 'accidentally' ran over his foot and he sat back down. Lord death faced the mirror and answered the call. Maka's face soon popped up and the teachers gathered around the mirror to look at the students.

"I can't talk for too long but we managed to encounter Free and Eureka." She said. Her eyes were full of fear but she kept her face neutral.

"How. They have been off the radar for years. Why would they resurface now?" Stine asked his face half stuffed with noodles. Everyone shrugged their shoulders and paid attention to the mirror again.

"Free doesn't seem like he's going to be too much of a problem it's Eureka i'm worried about." She said. Spirit pushed his way to the mirror to see Maka again.

"Maka i will help you if you need it." He said while trying to reach the mirror. Maka looked at Spirit and smiled.

"Ill be fine papa. Just don't forget about me if i dont make it back out." She said. Her eyes filling with sadness before it was quickly taken over with passion. She held up a victory sign before ending the call. Spirit just stared at the mirror while the rest of the teachers finished their lunch. The only time had gotten to talk to Maka and he let it slip through his fingers.

"I know you will make it back. You always will." He mumbled to himself. He pictured Maka's face when she ended the call in his head. He wasn't too sad that he didn't talk to her, he was happy to see her face again after the abrupt stop frm last time.

At the van Liz and Patty were singing along to the songs in the car, Blackstar, Soul and Kid were having a boy chat and Tsubaki and Maka were on the roof. Maka lent back and sighed. She had just ended the call to the D.W.M.A and felt out of breath. Tears gathered around her eyes but she managed to hold them back.

"Why did you tell your dad that. He's going to be worried about you." Tsubaki said taking her mirror back out of Maka's slightly sweaty hands. Maka rubbed her face and sat up a bit. The wind caught her hair again but the van started slowing down.

"Soul what are you doing?" Maka yelled down to him. The van soon came to a stop and everyone got out of the van. The doors clicked shut and Maka and Tsubaki jumped off the roof. Maka looked around and saw that they were in a city. It was a normal city full of humans but the market they were near was buzzing. She stopped in her tracks and looked around the city in more detail. Thousands of human souls gathered in different places all enjoying themselves. She rejoined the rest of the group and looked for a place to stay. They soon found a large hotel not far from where they parked the van but it took them a long time since the market was so busy it took them a while to navigate through it. They walked in and maka looked at the furnishing. A faded rug in the center and some faded sofas to the side. It wasn't much but they wouldn't be staying long.

"Ok so three rooms that will be eighteen dollars for all of you." The receptionist said. Everyone reached into their pockets and collectively got the money together. They walked up to the separate rooms and got settled in. There wasn't much but the balcony from everyone's room lead out to overlook the busy market place. The all got rooms on the same floor in a line. They all went out at six to find somewhere to eat. The market had a small pub close to it and it didn't have a lot of people in it even with the seven of them inside. Without them there was only two other people there. It was a couple the guy was tall and buff while the girl was a lot smaller than the man and her hair was silver with some pink highlighted into it. They ordered and were about to pay when the woman turned from the bar.
