A cloaked figure placed a basket on an orphanage's door step knocking loud enough to get the attention of someone inside before backing away and out of sight. Inside the basket was a baby girl sound asleep unaware of what was going on or where she was. the baby's eyes popped open and she began to wail.
A blond woman opened the door and looked door before scooping her up "you poor dear why someone would just abandon such a cute little thing." the baby calmed and the woman took her inside.
Age five
The woman Marie had named the girl Maka. With Maka as the youngest and constant rejections for adoptions Marie was closer to Maka to then any of the other children. Even at the age of five Maka could almost beat Marie at a battle of wits. Marie knew this but she had a trick up her sleeve reverse psychology.
Maka sat in her corner book in her lap she didn't have to look up to see Marie standing above her "Marie I'm not going."
Marie smiled a schemer's smile "But Maka they're looker for an older child and you're the oldest here so please."
Maka stood putting a book mark in her book to Mark her place "Alright I'm coming."
Marie smiled "goody now come on they're waiting."
When they entered Maka couldn't help but stare as a woman walked in the man looked normal enough but the woman her hair was purple. There was something was off with this woman.
Maka crossed her arms and pouted "You talked me up."
Marie smiled "Yes yes I did."
The woman stood and walked around the table and hugged Maka "Aren't you precious you wanna come home with us."
The man sighed deeply "Blair she can't breathe."
Blair released Maka and when she was free Maka bolted out of the room leaving them staring at the empty chair.
Marie let out a weak laugh "If you don't mind waiting, I'll go talk to her."
Marie entered Maka's room and found Maka packing her things in a suite case. Moving at an easy pace as she arranged books at the bottom of the suite case before placing her clothing of top of it.
Marie sat on a empty place on the bed "Maka why are you packing?"
Maka zipped the suite case "I'm going with them this would be good for me." she smiled "plus my cuteness is started to drop any longer I might not get adopted."
Marie smiled "This will be good for you Maka I hope you are happy with this." Marie stood and left the room.
Maka was led to a car that appeared to cost a lot. Mifune opened to door Letting Blair and Maka into the back seat before getting in on the driver side.
Blair settled herself before she turned to Maka "So what's your name."
Maka looked down at her hands "Maka miss."
Blair smiled and hugged Maka "Maka you can call me mama you don't have to call me miss."
Maka nodded "Okay mama but what about him?" she pointed to Mifune."
Mifune spoke in an even tone "Mifune is fine Miss." he looked at the rear-view mirror his eyes finding Blair's "We'll be home soon miss."
Blair smiled "Thank you Mifune."
Mifune pulled into a fairly large estate and right up to the main door and let them out. Blair paused on her way and placed a kiss on Mifune's cheek and gave him the rest of the day to himself. gentle she took Maka's hand and led her inside. Blair sat Maka at the kitchen and disappeared into another room coming back when a plate of cookies and two wine glasses with a purple liquid in them.
Blair laughed as Maka eyed the glass "Maka it's just grape soda."
Maka's mouth made an O shape and began sipping the drink.
Blair took one of the cookies from the plate "Maka have you been to school."
Maka shook her head "Not yet mama but I can go now."
Blair smiled "So Maka what do you like to do?"
Maka smiled "I like books."
Blair nodded "oh that's interesting, do you like kitties Maka."
Maka frowned slightly "I wouldn't know I never met one in person."
Blair stood and left the room coming back with a small black cat in her arms "Maka this is pumpkin." Blair placed the cat gentle on Maka's lap and pumpkin curled on her lap "She likes you."
Maka smiled "She's a nice kitty mama."
Blair sat down in her seat again smiling at her new daughter.
