The Misfortune of a Witch and her son(A Soul Eater Story)

Chapter 9

 Medusa's P.o.v. The Academy... 

 Once we arrived back into the Death Room, we already saw that everyone else was already there, and had their own captured minion...*sigh*. We walked to the steps where everyone was standing,"Medusa, Roku what took you so long?" Spirit asked,"Well sorry, we had to wait till dark to capture this guy." I said pointing a finger towards The Headless Horseman. I saw Lord Death and I couldn't figure his expression that head on his face because of that mask, grrr that cursed mask! 

  "So now that we are all here let's get started on each minion!" Lord Death said with his two gigantic hands clapping,"Let's see here we will start with our first group that came in, and you seemed to have captured the Black Gargoyle." I looked to see that the creature had been made out of stone, its eyes glowing to different colors, it didn't seem to have a mouth or nose, but instead a stone bird beak,"Well done Kami, and Spirit." 

   "Okay next we have Sophie and Vincent with their minion the Bleeding Widow" Lord Death said. I looked at the widow, she was probably the most scariest of all the minions. Her face couldn't be seen by her head down, and her black wet hair covering over her as if she was a used cleaning mop. I saw that dripping down of her legs was blood, and so was from her mouth. She wore a tattered up white wedding dress that was now stained with dark red liquid, she wore no shoes,"Excellent now to our third group." Lord Death said. 

     "Let's see here Psy and Diana you've got the second hardest minion here which is The Haunting Clown." Lord Death said. I saw the clown he was surely a kishen egg by the looks of him. He wore a fat clown outfit that drooped over his body, he wore a classic clown hat that had circles of different colors, his face was covered with a mask, and cracked mask with a crooked smile, coming out of the mask was little droplets of red blood. Diana looked as if she had no struggle of capturing the guy. 

     "And now for the last group, ah, Medusa and Roku! You've gotten the hardest and the oldest of the minions, The Headless Horseman." Lord Death said looking at the Horseman,"Wait a minute what happened to his horse?" Lord Death asked,"Well..." I said reaching into my bag and grabbing the glass that I held the horse's soul in,"Here it is." i said nervously. I've never seen an animal soul before so it looked different to me. I saw the soul it was not blue like a human's or red like a kishen egg, but it glowed neon green, it was beautiful. I saw Lord Death grab the soul with two fingers from the glass,"Well it seems that you have killed the horse, well at least Horseman no longer has any transportation." He said. 

        "Now I shall ask them for questioning...privately." Lord Death said, while everyone began to walk out. Oh no, what if the horseman tells Lord Death that I am a witch? I guess I just have to take the risk,"Wait I would like you to stay here with us, Medusa." Lord Death said. In my mind I thought Yes, thank you Unknown God! 

            "So first I shall ask you all to where the witch is?" Lord Death said,"You think that we are suppose to  know? WE are not suppose to speak of her location." The minions said in different rhythms,"I would like to make this easy enough on all of you guys, I wouldn't want to use force." Lord Death said with his gigantic hand popping out,"You think that using force will make us say where she is then you're wrong. You think that just because you are stronger you think that you can take control, well you are wrong at that Lord Death." The Horseman said,"I think that's enough out of all of you, wait a second." Lord Death said looking at something that we didn't see until now, Lord Death saw a black piece of paper come out of the Horseman's pocket,"Now let's see what we've got here...it's just a black piece of paper, but there has to be something of importance for you to have it." Lord Death said while examining the paper,"Okay that will be all from you all, I have someone that can keep you safe for now." Lord Death said. Lord Death now had a microphone in his hands and he spoke,"Excuse me but can Mr.Stein." Then Lord Death put the microphone away. 

                   A knock came from the door, and it opened, a young man about my age came forward. He wore a clock that had stitches all over, his pants were a dark color, his shoes black and also had stitches, his sweater beneath his cloak was a dark green, and dark purple also stitched. And then i looked at his face, he wore circle glasses, he had smooth facial features, his hair white, his eyes green, and then a long stitch running down diagonally from his face. Then he walked up to where we were,"So these are the people that you want me to keep Lord Death?" The man spoke to Lord Death,"Yes if you don't mind Stein I would like that." Lord Death said. Stein told all of the minions to follow him, and they did so, where are they going? I wondered. 

                        "Well it seems that is all for now Medusa you are free to go." Lord Death said,"Um Reaper you don't think that I may have that piece of paper that you found from the Horseman?" i asked,"Hmm...well I suppose so I mean you might have better luck at it then I do." He said now handing me the paper. I grabbed it and began to walk out of the room, out of the academy, and for some reason I did not go straight to home that night. 

                          Later that Night in a nearby forest.... 

                          I walked into a forest and came to a clearing, this should far enough I thought. I didn't want anyone else to see just in-case there was something on the paper. I took it from my bag, and I unfolded it. Hmm...blank or black or whatever. It had no words, no drawings, nothing. Maybe the book has something about it, I flipped on the Table of Contents to see that one of the last chapter sin the book was named, Black Paper. I read what it said. It said that witches has special ways of transporting their plans of destruction or where  their location is by sending each other black pieces of paper. It also says that to unveil what the writing says a witch must drop three drops of their own blood onto the paper. 

                            So I guess that is what I must do. I called out one vector arrow, and it slightly cut a little piece of skin, and I put my wrist over the paper, drop, drop, drop. My blood dropped on the paper, and I saw as words began to show on the paper, white words, and even a map. I looked to see that at the top of the paper it said, The Map to Blood Hole. Blood Hole? What the heck is that? I saw that the map began to draw itself, it seems that the first location that we have to began is at the Academy, but why would mother want the first location to be there?  

                                  The second location was to go through a menacing swamp, then the third location was a fiery volcano. I thought to myself jeez mother can you make this more harder than it is? Then I saw the fourth and last location It drew a castle that looked very ancient, and very abandoned. Beneath the castle white word escaped the paper and it read, The Blood Hole.  

                                     Two Days Later... 

                               After two days i decided to give Lord Death the paper so he can see it for himself but I didn't tell him how I got the words out of the map,"Hmm... so it appears that you all have your first quest on your hands now? Well this shows where the witch is so, you must all go to fight her, but before you fight a witch you must be prepared. So you may not go until I am ready to let you all go." Lord Death said while taking the paper and entering the mirror,"How long will that take?" i asked everyone,"Well since it is up to Lord Death he takes a while until we are assigned to go on a quest so, we must all be patient..." Kami said. 

                                   I thought to myself as we all walked home, What will happen when the time comes that I must face my mother in battle?
