Trust My Soul

Chapter 5 "Torturous Despair"

-Stein: 2 days have passed and so far nothing has happened regarding the curse Jinx cast, we have her body in the dungeon infirmary for the prisoners we hold, her body is under constant super vision by 2 guards. Soul and Maka on the other hand haven't had any problems, it's as if they weren't even cursed. I sit at my desk and lean back thinking of the different possibilities; did she really cast the spell? Maybe she recited it wrong and it didn't work, maybe she didn't finish it in time before blacking out. I sigh and consider that her magic is so weak it takes time for the curse to take affect, I stretch and yawn. "I need to sleep, this constant researching isn't good and yet I still do it without sleeping, hehe, oh well..." I get up and take a nap, 2 hours later I awaken to the phone ringing, I sluggishly get up and head over to the phone on the wall, "Hello...?" It's Spirit, he sounds worried but at the same time stern and serious.

-Spirit: "We need you down here, Soul and Maka are having....issues..." I say as I look at my daughter whose reaching for Soul while a guard has her held back, she's grinning weirdly and giggling as if she's being playful.

-Maka: "Soooouuuulll quit playing! I want a kiss on both pair of lips hehe." I grin and wink as he blushes and nearly nosebleeds. "Hehe see you want to, too!"

-Soul: I stay a few feet from my meister as she gives me a lustful look, all morning she's been acting weird, *accidentally* walking out with only her underwear and a baggy T-Shirt, bending over right in front of me, I knew from the obvious show of cleavage she gifted me with when leaning forward in front of me to *wipe something off my face*, that something was wrong with her. I called her dad up to call Stein since he hadn't picked up the previous 6 calls and 2 voicemails I left; and then brought Maka to the Death Room at school where Lord Death and Spirit usually are. 15 minutes pass and Stein enters the Death Room, we all turn to him excluding Maka who still has her lust filled eyes locked on me. "I dunno what's up with her but she's been acting strange. Exposing herself alittle too much and being awfully flirtatious." Although I loved the attention she was giving me, I knew it wasn't real, saddening me that this was in reality, torturing me. I turned to Stein who was examining Maka, he lifts her shirt and skirt and tugs on her underwear to look at her privates. "What do you think you're doing to my meister?!" Anger builds in me a lot more than usual, my arm turns to a scythe but a guard comes up and gestures for me to stand down. I grunt irritably and turn my arm back to normal. "What are you doing to Maka?!" I ask sternly, demanding an answer.

-Stein: "Don't get your panties in a bunch I'm just checking if she has any markings that indicates she was injected with a serum or bitten by something toxic that could make her this way. I have to check all over so just calm down Soul. It seems she's fine, no bumps, bruises, scratches, nicks or anything. This may be Jinx's curse taking affect now." I assure him I'm only doing what any doctor would do in a similar situation, he calms down then shows a confusing look on his face.

-Soul: "Curse? What curse? And who is Jinx?" I ask confused.

-Stein: I look up to see Maka staring at me with more lust in her eyes, I look into her eyes and notice a dust-like sparkle deep inside, not as if we're in some fairytale story though. Then I notice her eye color is moving around as if jelly in her eyes. "I see, there's a hint of magic in her, it's starting to make a little sense now. About 2 days ago you and Maka set out to aid Spirit and I in a fight against a witch whose magic and identity was unknown to us at the time. I held her off but her magic was strong, but her true witches power came out when she cast her spell on you and Maka."

-Soul: "Wait, what? She put a curse on us?" All this information is so new, I don't remember any witch named Jinx and the last mission Maka and I went on was some 4 star Kishan if I remember correctly. What is going on???

-Stein: "She's a reincarnated witch called Jinx. Every lifetime she looks the same and her prime objective is to cause despair and sadness throughout the world until she dies. Her magic is strong, very strong, but only at a certain peak in her power does her past life, Jinx Magic become hers too manipulate and use. It seems in our battle it came to her, and her first spell was a curse set on the 2 of you. I believe the reason it took so long to take affect was either because it was the first spell of Jinx's reincarnated magic, or the fact that it was a curse to begin with."
