Summary- The DWMA Gang is on a mission like no other. Lord Death has sent them on a mission to collect the soul of a pirate known as Jules Blake, AKA Bluebeard. Bluebeard is wanted for committing felonious crimes, including eating human souls, which means he is running the risk of becoming a Kishin, himself. However, the gang learns that this pirate is not from their world, but is in a place known as "the New World", located in the Grand Line. Once there, Maka, Soul, and company run into the Straw Hat Pirates, and after a case of mistaken identity, they quickly befriend each other and decide to make an alliance to put a stop to Bluebeard once and for all. Romance and friendships shall form, sacrifices will be made, and humor…well, there's plenty of it! Get ready for an epic adventure when Soul Eater meets One Piece! Luffy/Nami, Zoro/Robin, Maka/Crona (male), and Black*Star/Tsubaki inside.

(SPOILER ALERT: This takes place 8 months after Maka defeats the Kishin. Don't like spoilers, then don't read.)

Ch.1- A New Assignment: Depart for the New World?

7:30 am.

A sunny morning in Death City. The blazing sun is high in the sky, laughing as the citizens went about their daily routine.

Right now, four of these citizens are on their way to a certain school: the Death Weapon Meister Academy. It is none other than Maka Albarn, Soul Eater Evans, and Crona Makenshi. And where is this fourth citizen, one might ask? Well, we'll see him in just a bit.

It's been almost 8 months since the defeat of the Kishin, and life seemed to be returning to normal. Of course, there are still some Kishin eggs that needed to be hunted every now and then, but aside from that, Maka, Soul, and Crona are enjoying their lives anyway they can. Right now, the trio is headed for school for class. Apparently, there's going to be a new teacher.

"I'm so excited to see who our new teacher is!" Maka said. "Aren't you, Soul?"

"I don't see what the big deal is, really," said Soul. "To be honest, though, anyone's probably better than Stein. Crazy old man, always tripping on the doorway with that chair of his."

"Soul, have some respect!" Maka scolded. "Honestly. What about you, Crona? Aren't you excited to see our new teacher?"

"I guess so," said Crona. "I'm a bit nervous, though, too. What if this new teacher doesn't like me?"

"Oh, Crona," Maka said as she placed a gentle hand on the former Demon Swordsman. "A sweet boy like you? What's not to like?"

"Everything, if you ask me!" exclaimed a voice.

Suddenly, Crona gasped and tensed as a black blob came bursting out of his back and began to take a small, humanoid shape. It is revealed to be none other than his bullying weapon partner, Ragnarok.

"I mean look at him!" the demon sword said. "He's got PINK HAIR! What's up with that?!"

The little demon grabbed Crona's pink hair and began to pull on it, tightly, much to the sword Meister's surprise and pain.

"Ow!" Crona cried. "Ragnarok, stop it! Let go of my hair! You'll pull it out and make me bald! Bald people have smooth and shiny heads and I don't know how to deal with that!"

"Ragnarok, leave him alone!" Maka barked.

"And what are you gonna do if I don't?" asked Ragnarok.

"Oh, man, you asked for it," said Soul.

"Maka…CHOP!"

BAM! Maka landed a hard blow to Ragnarok's head with a book, making him shrink back into Crona's back.

"Thank you, Maka," said Crona.

"Anytime," Maka replied with a sweet smile, causing Crona to blush a light pink.

Before long, the group had arrived at the DWMA, where they are greeted by two of their good friends: Shino Kurohana, a One-Star Scythe Meister, and his weapon partner, Sicily "Spike" Clayborne, the wolf-eared, double-wolf-tailed girl with the blood of both of a werewolf and a witch inside of her. She is also Crona's self-proclaimed adopted older sister.

Ever since Spike had killed and consumed the soul of her father, Dark Fang of the Blood Moon Clan, Spike has become more outgoing and confident. She and her partner have become rather popular at the school as of late, as well, due to being involved in the battle with the Kishin.

For some reason, though, Spike's expression seemed rather…grim.

"Hi, Shino!" Maka greeted. "Hi, Spike!"

Shino and Spike looked up upon hearing Maka greeting them, and while the former gave them a warm smile to greet them back, the latter's expression still looking rather pathetic than Crona, and that's saying something!

"Spike, are you feeling okay?" asked Maka, a bit concerned.

"Aren't you happy to see us?" Crona asked his big sister. "Me, especially?"

Spike didn't respond.

"Oh, no," Crona mumbled. "I think Spike hates me now! I don't think I can deal with this!"

"What?" Spike asked. "Oh, no, Crona! It's okay! I'm glad to see you! I'm always glad to see you!"

"Then…how come you're acting so…mope-y?" asked Crona, fiddling with his hands.

"I…I don't really wanna talk about it," Spike said. "Let's just hurry and get to our classroom. The sooner we get there, the sooner we can get it over with."

With that, Spike entered the building with her Meister, plus Maka, Soul, and Crona following behind her.

"Uh…what the hell has Spike been smoking?" asked Soul.

"Soul!" Maka scolded.

"No, Maka, it's all right," Shino said before he heaved a sigh. "The truth is, she's been like this since last night. In fact, I literally had to drag her out of bed! I mean, I know she doesn't like coming to school, but she would never wanna miss one day of it unless she was sick or something."

"That's not like Spike at all," Maka muttered.

"I know," Soul agreed.

"You don't think that Spike is sick now, is she?" Crona asked.

Suddenly, Ragnarok came out of Crona's back, once again.

"I really hope so," he said. "It'd serve her right for giving me all those damn punches!"

"She only hits you because you deserve it, Ragnarok!" Maka barked. "And I don't blame her with the way you're always picking on Crona!"

"Oh, c'mon!" Ragnarok argued. "I don't do it as much anymore!"

"What about last week when you painted on Crona's face while he was asleep?" Maka questioned. "It took hours to wash that off!"

"He did look a bit funny with those polka dots," Soul muttered, trying to stifle his snickering so that Maka wouldn't hear him.

"It was just some old fashioned teasing," Ragnarok retorted. "Besides, Spike's little brothers were in on it, too!"

"What about the time you put glue in his socks, three days ago?" Shino questioned. "As well as yesterday when you pulled up his robe and you revealed his underwear to the whole class!"

"And need I remind you of this morning when-" Maka started, but Ragnarok quickly cut her off.

"Fine! I get it!" he said. "I'll cut down on the pranks! Sheesh!"

"Good," said Maka.

"Uh…Shino, where did Spike go?" Soul asked.

Shino looked ahead and saw that Spike had completely disappeared from sight.

"Oh, no, not again!" Shino exclaimed. "I can't look away from her for five seconds without her wandering off without me! You guys go on to class. I'll be there as soon as I find Spike."

"We'll see you there, then," said Soul.

"Tell her that we can sit and have lunch later," said Crona.

"You bet, Crona," said Shino before he ran off in search of his partner.

"You think Spike will be okay?" asked Soul.

"Knowing her, she probably will," said Maka. "Now let's go."

With that, the trio headed for Class Crescent Moon. Upon entering the classroom, they are soon met with the minor chitchat of the students. Apparently, the teacher had still not arrived yet, so that gave them some free time. Once Soul, Maka, and Crona took their seats, however, their free time soon ended, for the door opened to reveal a woman who appeared to be at least 46 years old wearing a clean white suit with a short white skirt, which had a little white rabbit sewn into the left side. She has long, sand-colored hair, almost like Maka's, only a bit longer than hers, and ruby red eyes. If one didn't know any better, he or she might say she looks like a grown-up version of Maka.

"Good morning, class!" the woman said as she went to the chalkboard, picked up a stick of chalk, and proceeded to scrawl her name on it. "I am Ms. Clayborne."

Everyone in the classroom gasped, but none of them are more surprised than Maka, Soul, Crona, and Ragnarok (who had chosen that moment to come out of his Meister's back, once again).

"It's Spike's mom. the White Witch!" one of the students whispered.

"It's Juliet!" whispered another.

Indeed it is. Juliet Clayborne, A.K.A "Juliet the White Witch". Aside from Kim Diehl, Juliet is the only known witch in history to have ever used her magic for good rather than destruction, and because of this, she had been labeled the number one enemy of all witches. She is also Spike's biological mother.

Ever since Spike had defeated her father, Juliet came out of hiding to help the DWMA do battle with the evil organization, Arachnephobia, as well as the Kishin. Now that the whole ordeal was finally over, Juliet had decided to settle down with Spike's two twin brothers, Marcus "Mark" Clayborne and William "Will" Clayborne, and get a new job in Death City, and apparently, this is it.

"So Ms. Clayborne is gonna be our new teacher?" asked Maka.

"Jeez, no wonder Mutt-Butt was trying to avoid coming to school," Ragnarok.

"Ragnarok, cut it out!" Crona whispered. "You're gonna make Spike's mother mad at us!"

"Still makes sense, though," said Soul. "I'd be embarrassed, too, if it was my Mom."

"Now then, class, today we're…" Juliet began, but then she trailed off. "Uh…Miss Albarn?"

"Yes, Ms. Clayborne?" asked Maka.

"Have you seen my daughter, Sicily, and her partner, Mr. Kurohana?" asked Juliet.

"Well, we saw them this morning," Maka answered. "Shino's in the middle of trying to get her here, right now."

"I see," Juliet said, although Maka couldn't help but notice that the White Witch sounded rather…disappointed.

Just then, the door swung open, and no sooner had it done so that a familiar figure came wheeling in, seated in a swivel chair. The chair ended up hitting the door frame, causing its owner to fall flat on his back, right on the floor with a THUD!

It is revealed to be none other than Dr. Franken Stein.

"Oh, good morning, class," said Stein, waving one hand to them while screwing the bolt in his head with the other.

"Oh, hello, Professor Stein," Juliet greeted the professor. "Can I help you with something?"

"Hmm?" Stein hummed. "Oh! Yes!"

Stein propped his swivel chair up and sat in it.

"Soul, Maka, and Crona," he said, not counting Ragnarok. "You're needed in the Death Room, immediately."

"Again?" Maka questioned, bewildered.

"Oh, what now?" Soul asked, irritably.

"Stein, it's my first day on the job and I just started class!" Juliet complained. "Can't this wait until later?"

"I'm afraid not," said Stein. "You know when Lord Death summons a student to the Death Room, they must go at once. Your daughter and her partner are already there."

Once again, Juliet put on a disappointed expression before she glanced Soul, Maka, Crona, and Ragnarok.

"Soul Eater Evans, Maka Albarn, Crona Makenshi, and Ragnarok," Juliet called them each by their full names. "You're excused from class."

"Yes, Ms. Clayborne," said Maka.

With that, the two Meisters and two weapons filed out of the classroom and headed straight for the Death Room.

They're lucky I'm not giving them a pink slip, Juliet thought as she watched them leave. Also…I feel like Sicily is trying to avoid coming to class…because of me.

"All right, class," said Juliet. "Today, we are studying the history of Soul Resonation. Please open your textbooks and turn to page 234."

7:45 am.

Later on, Maka, Soul, Crona, and Ragnarok have reached the Death Room, where they soon found that not only had Shino and Spike arrived there, but their friends, Black*Star, Tsubaki Nakatsukasa, Death the Kid, and the Thompson Sisters, Liz and Patty.

"Well, well," Kid said as he spotted the weapon and Meister pairs. "It appears we aren't the only one who have been summoned by my Father."

"Lord Death call you guys, too?" asked Patty.

"Yep," Soul answered.

"So what's going on?" Maka asked.

"Lord Death must have something important for us if he wanted us all here so quickly," Tsubaki answered. "To tell the truth, I was hoping we'd have just one day in class together."

"Whatever!" Black*Star exclaimed. "It's probably nothing too big for the great Black*Star to handle! YAHOO!"

"You and that overstuffed ego of yours," Soul said.

"Anyway, since we're all here, we might as well find out what Lord Death needs us for," Shino said. "Miss Maka? If you would be so kind?"

Maka giggled at Shino's gentlemanly charm before she approached the mirror. She breathed on it, creating a fog on the glass before she started to write down some numbers.

"42-42-564 whenever you wanna knock on Death's door."

A pause, but then, the mirror began to ripple and glow a light blue, and soon, Lord Death appeared in the glass.

"Good morning, Lord Death," Maka said.

"Ah! Maka! Good morning!" Lord Death greeted the Scythe Meister. "And of course, good morning to all of you, as well!"

"Lord Death, is there something you need?" Shino asked.

"Yes, something important?" Kid added.

"Ah, yes!" Lord Death said. "Children, I have your next assignment, but I must warn you, it's nothing like you or any other student at this school has had before!"

"A mission unlike any other?" Black*Star questioned before he flashed a toothy grin. "I'm interested, already."

"What's the scoop, Lord Death?" Spike asked.

"You children are off to hunt down a legendary pirate known as Jules Blake, otherwise known as 'Bluebeard'," Lord Death replied.

"Bluebeard?" Liz repeated.

"What a silly name!" Patty said with a giggle.

"It may sound silly," Lord Death said, "but believe me when I say this is no laughing matter. Bluebeard is wanted for committing many felonious crimes at sea, from plundering to robbery, and worse yet: murder. What's worse, his soul, as well as the souls of his crew, have strayed from the path of humanity. Their souls must be collected before they all turn into Kishin! Do you understand?"

"Yes, Lord Death/Father," everyone answered.

"So, where is this guy?" asked Soul. "Is he sailing the Pacific Ocean or the Atlantic?"

"Actually, Soul, Bluebeard doesn't come from this world," said Lord Death.

The gang looked rather surprised at those words.

"I-I'm sorry, Lord Death," Maka started, "but…what did you say?"

"He's not from this world?" Soul repeated, questioningly.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?!" asked Black*Star.

"You're not really making much sense, Father," said Kid.

"I can't really go into much detail, now," said Lord Death. "I know you have class today, but when you get home tonight, I want you all to get plenty of rest, pack up your essentials the next morning, and depart immediately…for the New World."

The gang gaped at Lord Death in shock before glancing at each other.

~The next day~

9:00 am.

"Come on, Spike! We gotta go!"

"Hold your horses, will ya?!"

At Shino and Spike's house, located just on the outskirts of town, Spike had just packed up her dark violet Duffel bag full of extra clothes, toothbrush, hairbrush, etc., and now she is finally ready to leave. She approached Shino, who is holding a beige knapsack over his shoulder.

"Let's head to my Mom's place so I can tell her and my brothers goodbye," said Spike. "Lord Death didn't say how long we're supposed to be gone, so I just wanna tell them, just in case we don't come back from…wherever we're going."

"Spike, speaking of your mom," Shino said, "I couldn't help but notice that she was a little upset something after you left to go to the bathroom…and you never came back until after class was over."

"Uh…I had tail problems," said Spike, flicking her two wolf tails.

"…Spike…did you try and skip class because, maybe, you knew your mom is gonna be our new teacher?" Shino asked with a look concern on his face.

A pause, but then Spike walked right passed Shino.

"Spike, I'm just asking," said Shino. "Are you mad at your mom or something-"

"If you're done talking, Shino Kurohana," Spike began, "I'd very much like to go to my Mom's place so I can say goodbye to her and my brothers, okay?! Besides, Maka and the others are waiting for us!"

Shino started at his partner for a moment before he heaved a sigh and followed her out the door.

XXX

9:28 am.

Shino and Spike had arrived at the Death Room at the DWMA, where they soon found Maka, Soul, and company waiting for them, all of them having luggage of their own. Lord Death stood there, as well.

"It's about time you guys decided to show up," Soul said. "What kept you?"

"Spike had to say goodbye to her mom and her brothers," Shino answered. "Who knows long we're gonna be gone, you know?"

"Or if we're coming back," Liz added.

"Oh, no," Crona said. "I hope we do find a way back home. I don't think I can deal with living in another world."

"Relax, Crona," Maka said as she put a hand on the Demon Swordsman's shoulder. "I'm sure Lord Death can bring us back home, safely. Right, Lord Death?"

"That's right!" Lord Death answered.

"Good," Maka said.

Who knows how much homework I'll have to do when I get back home? she thought.

"So, Father," Kid said. "How, exactly, are we supposed to enter this 'New World'?"

"Simple, my boy!" Lord Death answered as he stepped aside and pointed to his mirror. "The mirror, of course!"

"The mirror?" Tsubaki repeated, puzzled.

"I'm confused," Patty said.

"How's the mirror supposed to get us there?" asked Black*Star.

"…it's a portal, right?" Maka asked.

"Ding-ding-ding!" Lord Death exclaimed. "Bravo, Maka! You've got it! My mirror will act as your doorway from here to the New World and back again!"

"YAHOO!" Black*Star shouted. "I hope that this New World place is ready for this big star!"

"Oh, Black*Star," Tsubaki muttered.

"Wait!"

Everyone turned to see Spirit Albarn, Maka's father, running up to them, followed by Stein and another Death Scythe, Marie Mjolnir.

"Papa?" Maka asked. "W-what are you doing here?"

"Can't a father come to see his daughter off?" asked Spirit with a grin.

Maka smiled a little at her father before she approached him and wrapped her arms around him in a loving embrace, which Spirit returned. Ever since the defeat of the Kishin, Maka and Spirit have decided to at least try and put aside their differences and get their relationship as father and daughter back on the right track.

"Now, you be careful in this New World, all right, Maka?" Spirit asked. "I know you're strong, but…that doesn't mean I can't worry about you, understand?"

"Yes, Papa," Maka answered as she pulled away from him.

"And as for you, Soul Eater!" Spirit barked as he pointed at Soul. "You better not pull off any funny business around my Maka, you understand me?!"

"Why would I try anything funny with your hot-tempered daughter?" asked Soul.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY?!" Spirit questioned, angrily, although Soul didn't seem to pay it any mind. Crona, on the other hand, looked very nervous, but that nervousness soon disappeared when he felt Marie put a hand on his shoulder.

"Be good, okay, Crona?" asked Marie. "Listen to Maka and Spike, and don't talk to any strangers, understand?"

"Yes, Marie," Crona answered.

"And don't forget to contact us, once in a while," Stein added. "We'll be checking up on you every now and then."

Crona nodded his head in understanding.

"Is everyone ready to go?" asked Lord Death.

"Yes, Lord Death," Maka answered. "We're all ready."

"All right, then," Lord Death said before he turned to his mirror and breathed on it. Then, he drew an odd symbol on the glass with his finger. Then, the mirror seemed to glow and ripple.

"The portal is ready," Lord Death said as he turned to the gang. "When you've completed your mission, just call me, and I'll have it ready so it can bring you all back home. Good luck to you all!"

"We won't let you down, Lord Death," said Maka. "All right, guys! Let's go!"

"Yeah!" the others shouted in agreement before they entered the portal, one-by-one, Black*Star rushing in first, of course.

"YAHOO!" he shouted. "Look out, New World, here I come!"

"Black*Star, wait for me!" Tsubaki cried as she ran in after her Meister.

"Come along, ladies," Kid said as he walked through the portal with Liz and Patty following behind.

"See you later," Liz said.

"Bye-bye!" Patty called, waving as she disappeared through the portal.

Shino and Spike followed afterward.

"Lord Death," Spike said. "Tell my Mom…I'm sorry."

"Hmm?" Lord Death hummed, questioningly as Spike walked through the portal.

Maka, Soul, and Crona were the only ones left.

"Well, this is it, boys," she said.

Soul smirked.

"Let's do this," he said.

Crona swallowed the lump in his throat, apparently even more nervous than ever, but Maka held his hand, causing him to glance at her.

"It's gonna be okay, Crona," she said. "I'm right here."

Crona smiled and nodded.

"All right," said Maka. "Let's go!"

With that, the remaining three joined hands and ran through the portal, which closed the moment they entered.

TO BE CONTINUED…
