Okay, so this is my very first fan fiction, so I hope it is alright with you. Please review, and try to be nice if you find anything that needs to be fixed with this story. Thanks, and enjoy!
Prologue
"Lord Shinigami! Sir, where are you?!" I run through the village, Asura's maniacal laugh echoing around me as I search for him. I see them both up ahead, floating in the air, locked in deadly combat over the torn battleground below.
"Adrina!" I hear him shout out to me. "Protect Kidd for me, now! They're coming for him!" His demonic mask, which shows just how much he is a death god, doesn't even turn to see me.
I turn to run to the main house, where the entrance to the underground temple is hidden. If I find Kidd in the house, I can hide him down there and protect him from the rebel spirit guardians. My friends, who were our fellow spirit guardians and my personal bodyguards, were murdered by the rebels when they first arrived, looking for the Shinigamis. I had barely gotten away, forced by my friends to leave them behind.
I charge into the house, only to watch in horror as one of the spirit guardians drives her blade through Kidd, stabbing him cleanly through the heart, which would kill him instantly. I scream as I tackle her to the ground, conjuring a blade of light picked out with bits of shadow. She freezes under me as I swing my sword high, swinging it down to cleanly behead her. The body turns to stone, then disperses into the air as glitter through the air around me.
"A- Adrina?" A weak voice calls to me. I turn to the left, finding Kidd barely alive, trying to reach for me.
"Kidd!" I crawl over rapidly, holding his hand in one of my own as I run the other through his black and white striped hair. He is covered in his own blood, and still bleeding, but there is nothing I can do for him now but hold him to comfort him as he dies in my arms. "I'm so sorry." I start crying when he smiles bravely up at me. "I wasn't fast enough to protect you from them."
"It's okay… it wasn't… your… fault…" His eyes close and his breathing stops.
"Kidd?" I shake him, knowing he's dead, but wishing I could have saved him. "No, no, no, NO!" Light explodes out of me as I rest my forehead against his. "We will meet again, and when I finally save you, we will be free. The time will come that when I die, I will be reborn one last time, and not to protect you." As I finish my promise, crystal forms at my feet, growing over my legs as I kneel in prayer, awaiting my time as I fall into an endless sleep.
Over generations, for the next eight hundred years, I slightly awaken, only to die again soon after I remember the events of that day. Living a new life every fifty years, I begin to lose hope as I remember every incarnation, every life, ending before my fourteenth birthday.
Okay, so I figure you are a little confused about what the heck is going on here. This takes place soon after Kishin Asura breaks free and leaves Death City in the Manga, just plenty of time has passed. This chapter here is a look back eight hundred years into the Soul Eater history so that I have something to work with later on. And don't worry, everything will be explained in time, so just hang in there, an update should happen hopefully at least once every weekend. Please review.
