A/N: Ive been recently obsessed with Soul Eater, but I'm not done with the series yet so dont tell me! I wanted to do an Alice in Wonderland type of story, so I decided to do a Maka in Wonderland thing:)
I do not own Soul Eater(a girl can only wish)
Chapter 1: So Our Adventure Begins
"Tsubaki? Why is the sky blue?" Maka asked her older sister while gazing up at the cloudless sky.
Tsubaki shook her head making her long ponytail shake also,"I don't know, but maybe you'll find out if you let me finish reading this book to you."
Maka closed her eyes,"But I've already read it on my own. Remember?"
Tsubaki nodded,"I know, but Father's new wife wants me to read it to you again becau-"
"Because I'm the little sister who should be listening to stories, not reading them," Maka cut her off in a mocking tone,"I wish Papa never cheated on Mama."
And she did. Maka used to love spending time with her parents and Tsubaki as a family when she was little. She used to explore the nearby woods with him when she was only a small child. Her mother used to read stories aloud to her until Maka became old enough to read stories to her. It was a pleasant time that Maka really missed sometimes. Then again, those times included her lying dad so she usually just missed her memories with her mom and sister.
"I know," Tsubaki said, putting her hand on Maka's forhead,"But when will you learn that Mother is gone now and Father has remarried a nice woman who will take care of us like Mother used too."
The sandy blond opened her eyes and sat up.
She will never be Mama.
"Maka did you here me?"
"What?"
Tsubaki groaned, but then smiled,"I said you can go do something else. I'll tell Mother you were falling asleep because you already read this one."
Maka stood up and bowed. Her sister also stood, but instead of bowing back, she buttoned up Maka's dress. Then, she pulled ruffled her skirt and handed Maka some fabric,"Here are your gloves."
Maka took them, bowed one more time, then ran off.
She ran until she reached the creek by the woods. She plopped down on the soft grass and sighed. This place made her feel relaxed and safe. It made her feel like nothing in the universe could ever do her harm. This creek was also the place she went to the most with her father.
"Men are stupid and are all liars."
Maka kicked off her black dress shoes and let her bare feet dangle into the water. There wasn't much to do. Her choices were either sit there and be bored, or go home and face all Hell when her stepmother finds out Tsubaki didn't finish the book. The water was nice and cool so Maka decided to sit on the bank for awhile.
Papa...
"Where is your father? It's almost midnight!"
Maka grabbed her mom's hand and squeezed it gently."Don't worry Mama! Papa will come home and everything will be alright!"
To think she said that. To think she sat up with her Mama till midnight, waiting for him. To think she stood up for that cheating bastard. To think...
She shook her head slowly, feeling anger boil inside her and overflow into her eyes. The anger took the form of hot, salty tears that rolled down her cheeks and dripped off her chin. Feeling weak, she wiped her eyes and pouted.
Damn him. I wish I could just leave with Tsubaki and find Mama. I wonder if she's alive...
"No," she said stubbornly to herself,"Don't let yourself believe that Mama is dead. Ever."
A nearby bush shook a little bit, then stopped. Maka stood up quickly, her hands clenched into fists.
"Who's there?" she called out.
"Does your 'who' include animals?" a voice replied.
Maka was confused,"Uhh...Yeah..?"
The voice was hesitant in answering this time,"What about animal-human-things?"
She laughed,"I guess so."
Holding back another laugh, Maka watched as a boy walked out from behind the bushes. He had white hair that was a bit messy. His eyes were blood red and he was wearing a white dress shirt with a breast pocket. Hanging from the pocket was the chain of an old fashioned watch. His pants were black jeans that covered most of his feet. From what she could tell, he was wearing black tennis shoes. What made Maka hide a laugh, was that two long, white rabbit ears were sitting on his head.
"Stop laughing at me," he snarled.
Maka giggled,"I'm not laughing."
"Yes you are! Knock it off, it's not cool."
"Fine," she said, rolling her green eyes,"What's your name?"
The boy grinned,"Soul. Cool name, huh?"
What's with him and being cool?
Suddenly, he took off running. Maka grabbed her shoes and followed him. Soul ran quickly, making Maka trip over roots and getting her hair caught in stray branches.
"Soul! Where are you going?" she cried,"Stop!"
As if on command, he stopped dead in his tracks. Maka knelt over, breathing hard.
"You...run...fast," she said between pants.
"Following me is a bad idea, Maka," he said coldly without looking at her.
Shocked, she said,"Couple things. One, how do you know my name? Two, why?"
Soul looked over his shoulder at her,"Ever hear of the saying,'Curiosity killed the cat'?"
"Of course."
"Well pretend you're the cat. Now does it seem like a good idea to follow me?"
He took off running again, this time Maka was close behind him. She watched him jump over a small bush and disappear. When she jumped over the bush too, Maka ended up falling on her face.
Crap! I hope I don't lose him.
As soon as she was on her feet, she sprinted faster than she ever has before. Dodging rocks and trees, she caught a glimpse of his ears.
Maka never saw the ditch. All she remembered was falling into darkness.
