☭ SOUL V

[Finally having grown sick and tired of pitying herself and feeling lonely, Maka has left her room with a new determination to stick it to this Netherworld. Having discovered she possesses Weapon blood, she developed a plan to make herself stronger and hopefully, inevitably find a way to get out of this forsaken world. After all, if that little, silly fairy could stand up to that monster, then what excuse did she have for being scared?

Maka hid behind an outcropping outside of Baal's castle. She watched many of the demons and monsters, using her power to peer into their souls, and was surprised to find that...most were not evil. They were far from good and many had souls that were disgusting, but few where wholly evil, meaning very, very few were acceptable choices. Though they may be demons, Mister Shinigami would never allow them to be targets.

She continued to wait until an enormous baciel walked into her path. The enormous purple beast with a canon for an arm would appear to anyone else to be no different than the other demons and monsters, but the difference was readily apparent to Maka: whatever this monster was, he was genuinely evil: likely a merciless serial killer, cannibal, or someone having committed similarly despicable acts. His soul reeked of a Kishin Egg. Maka leaped out from behind the !rock and in front of the enormous creature, pointing at it.]

You! I will take your soul!

[The baciel was a bit confused why a little girl was threatening him, but it only took a moment for him to shrug it off and attack. He sneers and fires a single laser bolt at Maka. The bolt hits where she was standing and explode. The Baciel laughs, but then realizes it's bleeding from the neck. Looking over its shoulder, it notices Maka landing behind him. The girl now had two long, black blades sticking out from each forearm.

Upon landing on the ground, Maka immediately pivoted on her foot and ran back towards her target; the monster leveled its arm cannon at her and charged it, intending to fire another, stronger blast, but before being able to do so, she sliced through the barrels of the cannon. The cannon exploded and the monster cursed. Maka didn't slow and took advantage of the opening to strike the monster in the belly; she jumped into the air and sliced the Baciel open from belly to chest. With a shocked expression on its face, the demon exploded like a balloon and nothing was left.

Nothing besides a red floating orb.

Maka took the orb in hand and placed it in a bag at her waist. She wiped the dirt and sweat from her forehead.]

Four so far.

[Later, directed at Chrona but not filtered.]

Chrona, I'm...really, really sorry for being so quiet lately. There's no excuse for it. I think it's time we get together and start figuring a way out of this place.
