*I accidentally put __ instead of ((Y/N)) because it's easier. Hopefully it's not too confusing.*
Black Star's PoV:

I sigh and stay in bed. I'm taking a day off school along with Tsubaki. We haven't told Maka, Kid, Soul, Liz, Patty, or Stein. I cried a lot last night...I miss her so much. Why did she do that for me?!? If she really did like me...I suppose I don't want her to feel the way I am. I guess it's better if we leave her in peace.

_____is still at school. Laying there. Lifeless.

"Black Star? Are you awake?" Tsubaki knocks softly on the door. I sniff, wipe my eyes, and call her in. "I'm so sorry..." She doesn't bother to fake a reassuring smile. Tsubaki knows I'm smarter than that. ___ isn't coming back and I'm heartbroken.

I shrug and lay my head on the wall and close my eyes. I liked being calm and collected. But ____ has a way with words. So much, I can calm down. But she's gone...and I don't know what to think.

My phone buzzes from my bedside table. I reach over and read the message. It's from Maka. Medusa's soul is gone. As well as that weird one I sensed before. I wonder...

I gulp. No...was ____ 's soul really that soul?!? And I'm guessing when she pushed Medusa off the stairs...she died. And visited _____dream. And threatened to kill me...she knew ____ would plead her not to and do something with her instead. So Medusa...Medusa knew she was going to die. So she dragged ____ down with her. That witch....

I decide not to text back. Shutting off my phone, I think about my theory. I need to know...Tsubaki is smart...right?

"Tsubaki." I call as she turns to leave. Tsubaki turns back. "Do you think...do you think Medusa died and dragged ___ with her?"

"I guess it's a possibility." Tsubaki says, turning away again, hiding her pain. "Why?" She whispers. "Why are we so sad? I mean, we've only just met her...and so far she hasn't been the nicest. Yet I'm still crying."

"Because she's different. Cheesy, I know, but she was! Think about it, Maka told me Medusa's soul is gone and so is the strange one. That soul was ___'s."

"You're right... When should we tell them?"

"Tomorrow." I state, dreading tomorrow. "But." I pause. "Can you tell them? I-"

"It's fine. You should stay home tomorrow, anyway." Tsubaki smiles and I nod.

Tsubaki's PoV next day

"Guys..." I speak up while everyone talks over me. They turn their attention to me. "I have some...bad news."

"What is it?" Maka asks. "Is Black Star okay?"

"He's not hurt physically if that's what you're asking. But something happened when you left two days ago."

"What happened?" Soul asks. I start to cry again. "Tsubaki? What happened?"

"I-it's ____! She...Medusa...Medusa killed her." Everyone stared wide eyed at me. "We discovered ___ was in a coma...and somehow, Medusa corrupted her dream and threatened to kill Black Star. ___ didn't want that to happen...so she sacrificed herself and now she's-she's  gone and Black Star thinks it's his fault."

I finish as everyone stands wide eyed. I gulp, waiting for the worst. Maka and Patty look like they're about to burst out in tears. Soul, Liz, and Kid are frozen; just staring at me. I look down at the ground.

"We should go visit Black Star then...right? To make sure he's okay." Maka suggests. I nod lightly and so does everyone else.

Black Star's PoV

I lay with my face down in my pillow on my bed. A gentle knock and a few murmurs erupt from outside my door. Of course I locked it, just in case something like this did happen. I mean, not _____, but if I was crying. I don't want anyone to see that.

"Black Star?" Tsubaki softly says. I groan, letting her know I'm alive, but I don't get out of bed. Instead, I sit with my back against the wall, wiping my eyes from possible tears. I breathe in and out, and slowly call for her to come in.

Maka, Soul, Liz, Patty, and Kid enter along with Tsubaki. I hide my head under my pillow and groan.

"Are you okay?" Maka asks.

"A great assassin that will surpass god one day is always okay!" I yell, secretly hiding my feelings.

"Are you sure?" She responds.

"Just let me rest. School is hell and so are all of you...so just go." I simply state in the nicest way possible.

I hear the door click and I jump up, checking to see if they actually left; they did.

I bury my head into my pillows and drift off to sleep...

Black Star's Dream:

I'm in a white room. It's a hospital. But I'm not the patient. Who would I be visiting?

"Black Star? Visiting hours are over." A familiar voice says from behind me. I slowly tut me head.

"Medusa...you killed her!" I jump up and threaten to strangle her. She screams and security comes in and knocks me out. I never got to figure out who I was visiting.

Dream over.

"Black Star." A voice shakes me awake. My vision is blurry and I can't recognize her. It's a female voice. It's not Tsubaki's voice. "Black Star." It repeats. Her voice is soft and soothing, like silk.

"Y-yes?" My vision focuses on the face.

It's _____
