This my first attempt at writing fanfiction. I thought it would be nice to write on Soul Eater, since in comparison with other manga such as Bleach or Naruto, there are a lot of unexploited characters that have a lot of potential ; Besides, I love the manga. 'specially the craziness dedicated moments. I'll probably try to put some here and there, but I don't know if I'm good at retranscripting their particular "atmosphere". Feel free to tell me what you think of it, it would probably be a great help. Anyway, enough rambling ! On with the fic !
Oh, and I don't own Soul Eater. Damn.
That couldn't be good. What was she gonna do ? Facing the door, Chrona gulped. She had to give the book back. That was one certain fact. The door opened on the outside, didn't it ? Good. Perfect. No trap. No foe. Just her, a book and the library. She sighed.
" I don't know how to deal with this... "
" Hum ? What are you doing here, Chrona ?
Maka. Maka and Soul. She was saved ! Maka would surely, she would surely know how to handle this ! Yet, she still had to ask...Easier said than done.
" Ah, uh, I...I was ret-returning the book y-y-you..."
" The book I lent you ? "
Nodding shyly her head, Chrona approved.
" Say, Chrona, Do you want it ? "
" Huh ? "
" The book. You've been staring at it for five minutes. Don't you want to read it ? "
" Ha, huh, th-that's not it ! It, it's just Medusa-sama never let me look at her's..."
" Here, take it. I mean it, you can read it if you want. Just don't forget to give it back to the Shibusen library when you're done ! "
Maka's smile...
She seemed so happy back then, how could have Chrona refused it ? So she took the book, and spent a really hard time reading it. The story was most strange, though, and the simple thought of doing the same thing as the book characters sent her shuddering in the reassuring embrace of Mr corner. Yet, it was the book Maka has entrusted her, so she made sure to read it until the very last word. And, at the end, when the principal characters were sharing a kiss, finally reunited again, Chrona wasn't so much shuddering at the thought. Instead of, she rather felt all warm and fuzzy, letting her thought wandering over the subject...
" Love... What is love ? I'm sure the little rabbit knew the answer... Shame it's dead though. Mr corner is very good for comfort, but he is not very talkative..."
Maka. She could ask Mak-
"Bye-bye, little rabbit."
Maka. An insane grin spread on Chrona's face. Who cared about the old puny rabbit ? She had another one now, a big one, that was far, far more better, yes ma'am, and it was the cutest litttle rabbit you could ever found ! She just wanted to watch it, and watch it, and then watch it some more ! And then she would smash it to the ground, make it look at her, with those fiery eyes, those wonderful eyes that revealed so much of its soul... Of course, she would be more careful with it, cuz' rabbits tend to break when you're not careful, yet... Chrona thoughts were quickly spiralling downward. Hugging the book, her maniac chuckle arised... Insanity was threatening to sent her over the edge, oddly shaped hands already surrounding her...
"Let's be friends, right ? "
No. This was wrong. Maka is no rabbit, she's Maka. This was so foreign to her... Was it even worth trying, being normal ? What's so good about it anyway ? Maka would still be here, by her side, and in the end, that was all that mattered. Yet... If she tried to be a bit more like a normal person, she could, she could...
" Chrona ? Is everything alright ? ". Maka was looking at her with concerned eyes. When she heard Chrona starting to laugh, she was happy at first. Then she noticed the way Chrona was looking at her. For a moment, it felt as if the old Chrona was back. Scary. dangerous. Insane. Yet Maka could swore there was something else in her eyes. A genuine interest. And it made Maka shudder all the more. Yet, she chose to dismiss it for now. Chrona needed her help. She was not going to let her down.
"Ah... Y-yes ! "Chrona quickly chose to divert the subject " Hum... Say, M-Maka, I was wondering, if you could h-h-help me with this "she said, holding the bookin front of her. God, she felt like an idiot.
" Of course, Chrona, I'd help you with anything ! "
"Now what is that", said Soul, stepping in the conversation. " A love story ? Maka... Really, you... Should I buy you a cute frilly dress or something on your anniversary ? "Soul had difficulty holding his laugh.
"Makaaa... CHOP !" The said book was instantly used as weapon, engraving a flawless mark in Soul's skull, who dropped to the ground in agony. Maka returned her attantion to Chrona, showing a bright smile.
"Now let's deal with your problem, shall we ?"
