Ben followed behind Damien and Blade with both hands rubbing the back of his head. He couldn't take Damien's shouting across the whole city for Crona. Just then, Ben snapped impatiently at the emo. "Damien, could you please keep the noise level down? Dammit, it can't even think to myself!" Damien started to sniffle in sadness, but then was hit by a sudden wave of fury. "BEN! Look, I know you're a bit stressed about Raven being kidnapped and all... but come on. We all want to see her again. Okay?" Ben's eyes widened in shock. "Y-yep. Okay... I'm just... freaking out a bit." After Ben spoke, Blade pitched in. "Ben, it's fine. We'll find both Crona and Raven. Now let's start searching again." When the three began searching again, little did they know that they were being followed.

Luna shouted, retracing her steps back to where they had last seen them. "Wait--stop shouting. I hear something..." Kitt interrupted. Concentrating, she could hear the echoes of an argument. "That sounds like Damien and Ben." Luna walked a little farther and saw the three silhouettes. "Hey guys!" Luna shouted at the boys. "It's us!"

Damien and Ben stopped in their tracks at the voices of Luna and Kitt. Before turning around to greet the two girls, Damien looked at Ben. "Hey... sorry I snapped at you, Ben. We still cool?" Ben smiled at Damien. "Uh-huh. It was all my fault anyway. Sorry I got pissed at you only for calling for Crona." Damien bowed his head in acceptance as he and Ben turned around to face the two girls. "Hey Luna and Kitt. What's up?" Greeted the dagger in Damien's hand.

"We found Maka and Soul." Luna added, nodding at Maka, who carried a large red-and-black bladed scythe. "We need to find Crona and Ragnarok...do you have any idea where they might be?" Maka then spoke. "We think it was probably Nicholas who took Raven; although it could just as easily be a human, or a different kishin egg. So the sooner we find Crona and kill Nicholas, the better off we'll be."

"Cool! And once we find those two, resulting in us finding Nicholas and killing him, then we could search for Raven, and kick Arianna's ass!" Ben clasped his hands together in excitement. Damien laughed at Ben's enthusiasm. "Well, it's good to see Ben's himself again." He whispered to Blade. Ben was just grinning happily when a sudden thought had entered his head. "Um... do you guys think that we should search the places where we'd least expect Crona and Ragnarok to be?" He asked his friends. "You might be right, but for now we should probably just split up and search the streets for now. Just in case they weren't captured." Maka explained to Ben. "Okay. So... should we be splitting up now?" Asked Ben. Maka nodded. "Well, if we want to find our friends, that would be best."

"Ben, this mission, we have to act serious, okay? No emotional explosions." Blade explained to his best friend. Ben nodded in agreement. "If you want us all to find Raven faster, we have to be patient." Ben smiled. "Of course. If anything I would go crazy over, it would be fighting those two bratty girls that keep treating Crona like shit." The dagger chuckled. "Heh, yeah. I agree. Now, we should get going before something else happens."

Can we get going now? with effort. Ben was certainly the wimpiest of the guys. "Let's go...howsabout...this way?" Luna said, gesturing towards a serpentine path. Maka nodded. "Ok." and trotted after the blonde-with-black-highlights-poking-out-from-under-her-hat girl with gold claw gloves speckled with black.

Once again, Ben decided to join up with Blade and Damien. As they walked throughout the town, Blade started to develop a strange feeling that they were being watched. Damien could tell that Blade was sensing something, even when Blade was in dagger form. The handle usually gets cold, like when a person freezes in fear. "Blade, what's the matter? Do you sense anything?" Damien asked, looking down at the dagger's ebony blade to see Blade's pale face appear. The goth's gray eyes were widened in what almost looked like fear. Ben ran up next to his Damien. "Does he sense something?" He asked. Blade glared at both of them. "Someone is watching us. They are lurking in the shadows where we can't see them... let's go look around these buildings." Just as the three continued, Nicholas was hiding in a shadow nearby, stroking a gleaming silver revolver.

Just the thought of a creature as scary as a kishin, even a kishin egg, scared her. She'd met up with a kishin egg before, when she was trying to get to DWMA, but...Luna didn't allow herself to think about that. There were a few tales of inexperienced meisters who'd died at the hands of kishin eggs. They were scant, at best, but there were still enough to make Luna judiciously nervous. And they'd mainly happened to inexperienced meisters and weapons, like herself and Kitt. Well,she thought, at least I have Soul and Maka with me.They--along with two of their other friends, Black*Star and Kid, as well as their respective weapons--had even defeated the original Kishin, a feat that Luna balked at. She'd tried to get Soul to tell her about it, but he wouldn't say. It didn't seem like he didn't like to talk about it, but more like he couldn't find the words. Luna sympathized. Something like that would be hard to talk about to one who couldn't even beat a kishin egg by herself. Luna sighed and trekked on.

"So Blade, do you know by any chance who is watching us? Or... do you just sense it?" Ben asked the dagger in Damien's hold. Blade's face then appeared once again. He shook his head. "No. I just have these weird feelings, you know? Even though I could sense someone watching us, it doesn't mean my senses are accurate all the time. Though, most of the time I am, and I'm pretty positive that we are being watched right this moment." Damien turned his head to look at Ben. "Maybe you should tell the others that somebody might be watching us." Ben nodded. "Right away." And he ran up to join Luna, Kitt, and the others. "Guys! Blade says he senses us being watched. Says they're lurking somewhere in the shadows. He said we should try searching in the shadows around nearby buildings." Ben seemed actually serious about this whole mission for once.

You have Soul Perception." Luna said. Maka nodded. "Yeah. I'll see if Blade's right..." Maka closed her eyes and concentrated. Luna could see her muscles stiffen and her grip on Soul tighten. "Blade's right. There's someone up ahead." A nasty, raspy voice spoke now, in barely more then a whisper. "Soul Perception..." Luna turned, her heart pounding. There was nothing to see. Maybe I'm just imagining things...she thought, trotting to catch up to Maka.

Damien hunched his shoulders, trying to think. "Blade, should we split up?" He asked the black dagger he held. Ben walked over to see what the dagger had to say. "I personally think we should, but should ask Maka first, she's usually the Einstein when it comes down to preparing for missions." Ben crossed his arms and shook his head. "Seriously, Blade? I pretty much figured that out, oh, I don't know... kind of a while ago." Blade laughed at Ben's attitude. Sometimes Ben could sometimes be such a smart-ass. And... not in a good way. "Ben, would you please go ask Maka if we should all split up or stay together?" The dagger asked his best friend. Ben nodded and was about to walk over, when he turned around again. "Hey, why do I always have to ask?" Damien shrugged. "Dunno, Ben. Just go already." Ben turned to approach Maka and the others. "Maka? Should we split up or stay together?" He asked.

Maka said shortly. Soul's face appeared in her scythe and looked at Ben. "Try not to bother Maka. She's trying to do a lot of Soul Perception, and she needs to concentrate." Luna glanced at him. "Soul Perception is hard and all-consuming, is that what you're trying to say, Soul?" Soul nodded. "Yeah. It's really hard. So don't bother her or we may not complete the mission." His face faded. Luna glanced at Kitt. "Soul Perception sounds like a lot of work." Kitt's face appeared in the claw-gloves. "No kidding!" she said.

He hated feeling this way. He didn't want his friends to think of him as annoying and ingnorant, he wanted them to feel as though he was as important to all of them. Ben just wanted to burst out and cry. Why do you people hate me! I don't want to bother you, I want to help! I WANT TO HELP! So Ben did something he's never done before. "I'm sorry, I just... wanted to help is all, really. I guess if I'm going to keep bothering you guys, maybe I shouldn't even help. Maybe I should just sit in a dark corner, weeping about how much of a loser I am to you guys. A stupid. Annoying. Nobody." And with that, Ben walked back to Damien, pouting with raging fury. They don't need me. I'm a useless piece of garbage to them. "I quit. Oh, and don't bother the others, just a heads up for ya." Ben spoke in a furious tone before trudging away.
