Chapter 5 - Wavelength Part 2!

Our Heroes stood in front of an Odd house that was covered in Stitches.

Soul: "So this is where we find Stein. Let's hurry and finish this guy off. I'm ready for these lessons to be over."

Y/n: "Whoever this guy is, he must really love stitching to even put them on his house."

Maka: "Wonder what kind of guy this Stein is."

*BANG!*

Slowly, one of the metal doors to Steins home opened and the sound of something approaching quickly towards them. Our heroes stood on guard until.

*clink*

???: "Woah-"

*thud*

A man scooted in at high speeds on a Office chair backwards, but, one of the wheels on the chair were caught by the donor's frame, causing him to fall on his butt. He then got up and sat back down on his office chair while turning the huge screw inside of his head.

???: "Dammit. Still doesn't feel quite right."

After twisting the screw for a moment he stopped.

???: "Hmmm. Maybe that will take care of it."

He then got up with his chair in hand.

???: "Ok. I'm gonna try that again."

He then walked back into the house with his chair behind him.

Soul: "Uh. Shouldn't someone stop him?"

Maka: "But, we just met him, isn't that rude?"

Y/n: "Rude or not, my curiosity has peaked."

Blackstar: "I'd like to see what happens next."

Tsubaki: "Yeah, so would I."

The rolling sound came from inside the house again, meaning that the man had started once again... but...

*Clink*

*Thud!*

???: "GUAH!"

Changing nothing but your head and expecting different results from the same process isn't very scientific.

Soul, Maka, Blackstar & Tsubaki thoughts: "Is this guy for real?"

Y/n thoughts: "Curiosity is beyond it's Peak!"

"LEGENDARY SOULS"

Episode 5

Y/n's Malleable Soul

Introducing The Ultimate Mister, Stein

The man with the screw in his head laid on the ground after his second failed attempt at creating Wheel Chair travel.

???: "Is there something you kids needed me for?"

Soul: "Yeah, if your really Dr. Stein."

Maka: "You did this! You're the one who turned Sid into a Zombie!"

Yes! This was indeed our new Character! Doctor Franken Stein!

Stein: "Oh... I guessing you're all students from the Academy then."

Stein said sitting in his chair with a bored expression.

Maka: "Why did you do this? Revenge? A grudge?"

Stein: "No nothing like that. I have a simpler motive, Experimentation and Observation, that was a true scientist cares about, and I am a scientist. Everything in the world is an experimental test subject, ofcourse that includes myself aswell."

Stein stared at the five with an odd look. Maka thought something strange was happening, but Stein was just looking at their Souls.

Stein: "Your Soul's Wavelength aren't very stable, and they're quite diffrent from one another. I see one Soul that is Carless and Arrogant, while the other is Ernest and Strong Willed. They appear to be in Resonance, but they aren't."

Soul: "What the hell. You mean you can see the Soul of someone who's still alive? In that case you must be a Mister."

Maka: "He's able to read the character of the Souls too. Only the best misters can do that."

Soul: "So what. You can see Souls like that too, right?"

Maka: "Oh! Well of course I can."

Stein: "Your Soul seems confused by that last statement. How cute."

Maka: "SHUT UP! QUIT IT! STOP LOOKING AT MY SOUL YOU CREEP!"

Blackstar: "YEAH! SHUT UP YOU LITTLE DOCTOR MAN!"

Everyone looked up to see Blackstar standing on the roof of Stein's house

Blackstar: "No one wants to hear you talk anymore! YAHOO! How about we change the subject to a more interesting conversation topic! Like me for example!"

Tsubaki: "When did he?"

Y/n: "You should be more concerned that he gave himself away, even with that perfect sneak attacking spot position."

Tsubaki: "*Sigh* You're right."

Blackstar: "Who care if you can see Souls! Not like you're gonna see anything interesting! As far as I'm concerned the only Soul worth looking at is mine!"

Blackstar said as he jumped off the roof and landed in front of Stein.

Stein: "HAHAHAHAA! Yours is an interesting one. You Soul is extremely self centered and more that a little bit wild. It must be rather difficult to find a Soul that's compatible with your own, isn't it?"

Blackstar: "No more talking!"

Blackstar charged at Stein and tried to hit him with a spin kick, but Stein blocked it with his arm while spinning around in his chair. Blackstar tried to kick again, but Stien kept his arm up and spun his chair once again, sending Blackstar flying back a bit. Then when he least expected it, Stein charged forwards and Smashed Blackstar with his fist, sending him to the ground.

Tsubaki: "BLACKSTAR!"

Stein turned his attention toward Tsubaki.

Stein: "Hmm. Oh I see now. You must be the Wild one's partner. Your always willing to compromise and posses and very accepting nature. It makes sense that your the one who's able to co-operate with his Soul's Wavelength."

Soul: "Who do you think you are old man?"

*CLICK!*

S

tein: "Huh?"

Everyone turned their attention to Y/n, who was taking a Polaroid picture out of his Camera.

Y/n: "Franken Stein. Age: Blank. Soul Type: Human Mister. an eccentric but extremely talented doctor and Mister who is known to be the strongest Meister to have graduated from the DWMA. You experiment on yourself and others with reckless abandon for the sake of Scientific Discovery."

Stein: "A History Camera. Now where did you get such old yet magical technology?"

Y/n: "It's a long and annoying story. Hmm some of the stuff is smudged here. You able to hide your Soul's information by slightly altering you Wavelength."

Stein: "You must use that thing alot if you know it's weakness."

Y/n only shrugged before putting the camera away. Stein began to look at Y/n Soul with confusion before realization.

Stein: "Your Soul is very diffrent from the others. It's playful and money hungry but it'll still go out of it's way to save another's life, no matter the cost to it's own. But that's not all, it's an extremely strong weapon that's seen it's fair share of action and odd happenings. But your Wavelength is... odd... now that I've collected the necessary initial data from you, I think it's time we Begin the Experiment.

Y/n: "That's one if my lines. Gamer Driver."

Suddenly a neon green and pink Driver appeared around Y/n's waist.

He then summoned a Black object and pressed a button on the side.

Gashat: "*BWEEP* MIGHT ACTION X! *Video Gane Music*"

Y/n then inserted the Gashant into the driver and pulled the pink lever starting his transformation.

Y/n: "Henshin."

Gamer Driver: "GASHATO! GACHAN! LEVEL UP! MIGHTY JUMP! MIGHTY KICK! MIGH~TY ACTIO~N X!?"

Y/n: "Let's Finish This!"

Maka: "Right."

Soul transformed into his Scythe Form and flew into Maka's hands. Then Maka charged at Stein with her Scythe raised ready to slash. She tried to slash Stein, but he dodged all her attacks without getting off his chair, he then kicked off of Maka, causing his chair to roll until he slammed the back of his head into Blackstar's face. Y/n tried to hit Stein with a Rider Kick, but he dodged before grabbing Y/n and throwing him next to Maka. Stein than twisted his Screw and spoke to himself.

Stein: "Let's see, Scythe Mister Maka. Something about that name seems familiar. If I could just put my finger on it."

Stein then slammed his fist into his palm.

Stein: "Ah! Your mother was a Mister and your Spirit's little daughter, Aren't you?"

Soul: "Who's Spirit?"

Maka: "That's what my father was called before he became a Death Scythe. But I wanna know how you knew about that."

Stein: "Ah. So, you are indeed Spirit's darling little daughter. And the daughter of the woman who ended my greatest experiment. I wonder what kind of Subject you'd make."

Stein then charged at Maka with his hand reeled back.

Soul: "It's just a tap. I can block it."

Maka: "Ok!"

Maka quickly lifted her Scythe to block Stein, but, he went right past her.

Stein: "You are an interesting specimen... but I have my sights on a more interesting one."

Stein dashed right past Maka and slammed his palm into Y/n's chest.

*BOOM!*

*SHIII-CRASH!*

Suddenly a familiar blast of electricity came out of Stein's hand and blasted Y/n. He was sent back a few steps, but he was uninjured.

Stein: "So I was correct. You are unaffected by Direct Soul Wavelength attacks... physically."

Y/n: "What the hell does that mean?"

Soul: "Y/N! YOUR BODY!"

Y/n looked down at himself to see that his body was turning into Purple pixels and floating into the air.

Y/n: "W-What'd you do to me!?"

Stein: "I figured out your secret. Your Soul's Wavelength... is very unstable in the traditional sense."

Y/n: "What?"

Stein: "You see, Souls have a specific Wavelength, and other Souls can only match that Wavelength by so much. It would be impossible for one weapon to be wielded by multiple people because of how diffrent every Soul is. But your Soul is an exception to that rule. Your Wavelength is undefined, allowing anyone to wield you if they use the right Weapon or Driver in your case."

Y/n had fully transformed into Pixels, the pixels then flew around before landing around Steins waist and transforming into a new Driver.

Stein: "What I'm saying is, if you can match Y/n's Wavelength with a tiny diffrence, you can change him into any form you want and wield him perfectly."

The new Driver then fully took shape revealing itself.

Y/n: "BAGURU DRIVER..."

Stein then connected the driver to his belt, causing a new Gashat to appear in his hand.

Y/n: "GACHAN... *EVIL VIDEOGAME MUSIC*"

Gashat: "*BWEEP* DANGEROUS ZOMBIE! *GUITAR RIFT*"

Stein: "Now how did he say it? Oh, right. Henshin."

Stein then inserted the Gashat into the Driver before pressing the Button, starting his transformation.

Y/n: "GASHANTO! BUGGLE UP! DANGER! DANGER! GENOCIDE! DEATH THE CRISIS! DANGEROUS ZOMBIE! *Zombie Groan*"

Stein: "Now... Let's try this again."

When Stein spoke his voice was deep and echoing. In a blink of an eye, Stein was in front of Maka with his hand reeled back. Maka acted quickly and lifted up Soul to block, but he used his Soul's Wavelength, which was stronger because Y/n was amplifying it. The Soul Wave slammed into Soul and flowed through him hitting Maka. The blast sent Maka flying back a bit.

Stein: "Let's see here, how shall I begin my experiment?"

Soul: "What's wrong Maka? Chill out! Your Soul wave are chaotic."

Maka then charged at Stein and swung her Scythe at him, but Stein seemed to Glitch out of the way before shocking Maka again.

Maka: "GAH!"

Soul: "THAT WAS A DUMB MOVE!"

Stein then grabbed Maka by her hair and lifted up her shirt a bit revealing her stomach.

Stein: "Ah. You have such lovely skin."

Stein the pulled out a Marker and wrote a line on her.

Stein: "Where should I insert the knife first. Let's see if I can turn you smooth skin into sandpaper."

Maka: "*Struggling* Y/n! Ugh! Do! Something!"

Maka tried to reach out to Y/n, be he couldn't respond even if he tried. She struggled as Stein held her, but he was interrupted by a familiar voice.

Blackstar: "YOUR GONNA NEED A NEW PAIR OF GLASSES BASTARD! HOW COULD YOU HAVE ALREADY FORGOTTEN THAT I'M HERE!?"

Stein: "Easily."

Blackstar charged at Stein with his Elbow and Fist raised in a familiar position.

Blackstar: "YOU AREN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN USE SOUL WAVES WITHOUT A WEAPON!"

Stein: "What!"

Blackstar: "BLACK☆STAR BIG WAVE!"

Blackstar slammed his fist and elbow into Steins back, blasting him with a massive Soul Shock. But... Stein stood there, completely unfazed.

Stein: "A Suprise from the wild boy."

Blackstar backed up a bit with fear on his face.

Blackstar: "You deflected my Soul Attack?"

Stein: "Don't you remember when I checked your Soul Data earlier. When I did that I Familiarized myself with your Soul's Wavelength, and I can adjust mine so that they match, it's the same thing I did to Y/n really. When Soul Wavelength's are the same the cancel eachother out, so your attack is powerless. You see in the exact moment you attacked, we temporarily bonded. It's like a connection between Mister and Weapon. That was a fun experiment..."

Stein suddenly glitched out before appearing right infront of Blackstar.

Stein: "But not it's my turn."

He then placed he hand around Blackstar's head before blasting him with his and Y/n's Soul's Wavelengths, causing Blackstar to Scream in pain. Stein then stopped, causing blood to fly out of his eyes and mouth as he fell to the ground.

Soul quickly ran over to Blackstar and checked on him. Before running back next to Maka.

Soul: "DAMN YOU STEIN! I'LL KILL YOU! Alright! Let's go get em Maka!"

Soul yelled to Maka, but she was petrified by what she saw. She fell to her knees and whimpered in fear.

Maka: "This is impossible...."

Maka was looking at Stein and Y/n's Souls only to see that Stein's Soul was light blue and had stitches and a large screw sticking out of it, it was also 2 times bigger than his body.Y/n's Soul was F/c and had hundreds of Symbols that she's never seen before rotating around it, some resembling animals, faces or bugs. But the most striking part was the size of the Soul, And the fact that it was bigger than Stein's house.

Stein: "The little girl can see my Soul, huh? And Y/n's too."

Maka: "We can't beat them... we just can't. The diffrence in us is just too great. And Y/n. With Stein wielding him like that... we'll never beat him..."

Soul: "What's the matter with you Maka!? Get up!"

Maka: "SHUT UP! You wouldn't be acting so tough if you could see the shape of their souls like I can!"

Soul: ".... YOU'RE WRONG! I WOULDN'T CARE! All you saw was their Souls, right? You didn't see your future! You can't give up before you even fight! You're supposed to turn me into the strongest Death Scythe ever! You don't want the worthless father of yours yo outshine us do you!? Look up and listen to me! Do you hear me Maka!? I'm talking to you!"

Maka slowly looked up causing Soul to smile.

Soul: "Good. Now look over there and see. He's been waiting patiently for you to finish this tantrum. Isn't that polite of the ground Dr. Stein?"

Maka then smiled.

Soul: "Come on! If we die we die cool."

Maka then got back up.

Maka: "Sorry about that, I'm better now."

Soul: "No, Problem."

Soul then transformed back into his weapon form, Maka spun him around before slashing infront of her.

Maka & Soul: "LET'S GO! SOUL RESONANCE!"

Maka and Soul roared with power as their Souls Resonated.

Stein: "COME ON! LET'S SEE HOW MUCH YOUR SOULS CAN HANDLE!"

Maka then lifted Soul causing him to transform once again.

Maka: "The Legendary Super Skill of the Scythe Mister! WITCH HUNTER!"

Maka then tried to Slash Stein from below but he caught the blade Inbetween his hands.

Stein: "You can control the Witch Hunter too."

Maka kept trying to push past Stein and slash him, but it was worthless.

Stein: "But I'm afraid your skills are too rough."

*CRASH!*

Suddenly, Witch Hunter Shattered sending Soul and Maka flying back. Stein then walked and squatted next to the injured and tired Maka. But suddenly Soul appeared over her, guarding her with his body.

Soul: "Back away. I won't let you touch my Mister!"

Stein: ".... In that case I'll start with you."

Stein slowly reached over and put his hand on Soul's head.

Stein: "... You earned a passing grade. Good Job."

Maka & Soul: "Huh?"

Stein: "Your extra lessons have been completed... you gave up your own body to protect you Mister. That's all you need to pass from me."

Soul: "I'm sorry, maybe I wasn't clear the first time. Huh?"

Stein: "This was all planned out by Lord Death. He wanted me to help with these Extra lessons."

Soul: "BUT IF YOU WERE IN ON IT WHY DID YOU KILL BLACKSTAR!?"

Soul turned to see Tsubaki helping us a slightly unconscious Blackstar.

Soul: "He's still alive... THEN WHAT ABOUT Y/N!?"

Y/n: "Yeah. What about me? Can I turn back now."

Soul's attention was turned towards the Baguru Driver, where Y/n's voice was coming from.

Y/n: "A God shouldn't be wielded by such a weal mortal for this long."

Stein: "Yeah sure it's over now."

Stein was covered in an odd light before it flew off of his body, revealing his normal form, then Y/n in his Dangerous Zombie form appeared next to him, stretching his body.

Y/n: "Hmph! This test is such a disgrace to my immoryal glory!"

Soul: "YOU WERE IN ON IT TOO!?"

Y/n: "Of Course I was! It's true I can be perfectly wielded by Anyone because my Soul's Wavelength is so weird. BUT YOU CAN'T JUST CHANGE SOMEONE'S FORM BY HITTING THEM WITH A SOUL WAVE! I'm just immune to Direct Soul attack."

Soul: "How!?"

Y/n: "BECAUSE I'M A GOD!!!"

Soul: "I mean, how did you know about this trick?"

Y/n then tossed Soul the Polaroid picture he took of Stein. Soul picked it up and read what it said aloud.

Soul: "Franken Stein. Age: Blank. Soul Type: Human Mister. an eccentric but extremely talented doctor and Mister who is known to be the strongest Meister to have graduated from the DWMA. He experiments on yourself and others with reckless abandon for the sake of Scientific Discovery. P.S. This whole thing is a part of the Test. Help me out by transforming when I hit you with my Soul's Wavelength. I'll pay you!?"

Stein: "It was the only way to truly assure that he would do it."

Y/n: "Speking of pay..."

Y/n held out his hand towards Stein and moved his fingers back and forth in a Gimme Gimme motion. Stein sighed before reaching into his pocket and slapping the money into Y/n's hand. Y/n quickly counted it before letting out an Insane maniacal laughter.

Y/n: "WAH HAHAHAHAHA HAAAAA! BLESS YOU PRIORITIES!!!"

Y/n then began walking away while counting the money over and over.

Soul: "But what about turning Sid into a Zombie!?"

Sid: "Oh yeah, sorry about this. Back when I was alive I wouldn't tell a lie like this. But alot of things have changed since then."

Soul: "You don't say! Then what the hell was the point of all this!? TO SEE IF YOU COULD SCARE US TO DEATH!?"

Sad Maka: "Seriously..."

Stein: "It was just a test. But I have to admit! It was pretty fun scaring you kids!"

Y/n: "WHA HAHAHAHAAA HAAAA!!! IT WAS HILARIOUS!!"

Maka & Soul thoughts: "Those two are seriously sadistic."

Stein then jumped back on his chair and spun around before throwing his arms into the air.

Stein: "Now you all look tired! Why don't you spend the night in my laboratory!"

Maka, Soul & Blackstar: "THAT'S A BIG FAT NO!"

Y/n laughed some more before transforming back to normal. He let out a large sigh before remembering something. Stein was about to roll back into his house, but Y/n stopped him.

Y/n: "Oh! I almost forgot! Dr. Stein, I need to ask a question."

Stein: "Huh? Ask away."

Y/n: "So I've been thinking about this since we left the Academy. When we were talking to Lord Death, Maka said that Misters feed their Weapons 99 Kishin Souls and 1 Witch's Soul to make a Death Scythe, right?"

Stein: "Yep. If you wondering that you need a Mister to do this, don't. There's already a someone who's become a Death Scythe without a Mister, and he holds the record for the Youngest weapon to become a Death Scythe.

Y/n: "It's not that. I was wondering. Can you become a Death Scythe 4 times?"

Everyone: ".... Huh?"

Y/n then pulled out a large notebook that said, Request Rewards. He quickly flipped through all the pages about money until he reached the most recent page. He read for a moment before pointing at what he saw. Everyone quickly looked at the Note Book from over his shoulder.

Y/n: "As of Yesterday. I have eaten a total of, 1032 Kishin Souls, and 4 Witch souls, it would have been 1033 Kishins and 5 Witches if that Fox didn't escape me... again. Anyway, does this make me a Death Scythe Level 4? Or something even further beyond? Or nothing, becuase I wasn't enrolled in the Academy beforehand?"

Everyone held expressions of Exteme shock and aw so wide that their Pupils had disappeared. They could only say one word about this phenomenon.

Everyone: "WWWHHHHAAAAAATTTTT!?!?!?!!?!?!!??"

Y/n: "OW! MY EARS!"

"TIMESKIP"

"Location: DWMA"

Maka, Soul, Y/n Blackstar and Tsubaki were sitting in class with Exhausted looks on their faces.

Soul: "I'm still worn out from last night."

Maka: "I dreamt that Stein was using me for his experiments. *Shutter*"

Y/n: "Man. I always forget how much Level X drains me..."

Blackstar: "TSUBAKI! Was Stein a bigger star than me yesterday!?"

Tsubaki: "Seriously?"

Y/n in distance: "YES HE WAS!"

Soul: "You think they found anyone to replace Sid?"

Y/n: "Maybe DeathScythe will teach again?"

Maka: "No! Anyone but him!"

*CLINK*

*SKKKKEEEERRRR!*

Stein: "Alright class are we ready to get started?"

Stein suddenly crashed into class with his chair and opened a book while upside down.

Depressed Soul: "This isn't funny."

Depressed Y/n: "You jinxed it Maka."

Depressed Maka: "This is the first time... I actually wanna see my father."

Blackstar: "Damn. That guy sure knows how to get attention."

As Stein spoke he twisted the giant screw in his head.

Stein: "We're gonna start by dissecting some frogs, should be pretty exciting."
