After the Honeymoon

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!"
