Soul Eater: Ghosts Of Madness
Chapter 1: 1 1/2 years later
Kid sat in the classroom looking at the four empty seats around him while Stein was lecturing the class on the various types of souls. Every time the shinigami tried to focus on the professors teachings, his mind drifted back to those four seats. The cool scythe who dreamed of becoming a death scythe, the dangerous beauty who had taken him on as a partner for missions when his true meister hadn't signed them up for anything, the girl who slayed Asura that had been heart broken after the last battle, and the Blood Meister turned Kishin who left in order to learn control and restraint for his wavelength of fear.
"Hey Kid," Liz spoke as she nudged Kid's arm to bring him back to reality, "You ok?" Liz asked, she could tell where his thoughts were, she always had to bring him back. The reaper looked at his weapon with a distant look in his eyes, and she hated it.
"Yeah, just thinking about them again..." Kid barely said loud enough for her to hear, he shifted his attention back to Stein and half hearted listened to the professor, who had begun teaching about the rare and unique Redeemed Soul.
"I know, we all do from time to time, but remember Bella and Soul are out on a mission since Maka hadn't taken him out lately." Liz explained trying to get Kid to feel somewhat better, however Kid shrugged off the attempt.
"Yeah, I know, but Maka needs to stop trying to find him, she'll burn herself up if she keeps trying use soul perception to find him." Kid explained to his partner, she looked at him with concern for his own well being, "Besides I even told her I couldn't find him because of Ruina's necklace that had a soul protect charm built into it by Lamia." Kid finished.
"Look Kid she'll realize eventually that he'll return when he feels he is able to, she's just worried about him, you don't think if the situation was reversed Kai wouldn't be out looking for her?" Liz brought up a good point, Kid had to admit that those two would willingly die for each other if they needed to.
After the class ended Kid began to walk down the hall way towards his father's death room. Liz and Patty watched as their meister moved through the crowd of students.
"Kid will be ok, right Liz?" Patty asked her older sister without turning her attention away from the reaper.
"I hope so Patty I hope so..." Liz responded to her sister with sadness clinging onto her words. "Come on, lets go home..."
In The Death Room
Kid walked down the guillotine lined hallway towards his father who was looking into his mirror as usual. As he approached he saw that he was viewing the progress of Bella and Soul's mission, the two worked almost as well together as Maka and Soul did.
"Hey Kiddo, how you feeling today?" Lord Death asked as his son stood beside him and joined him in watching the two fight together.
"They make a good team don't they, unfortunately she's more of a sword meister than a scythe meister." Kid observed as he watched Bella try and manoeuvre Soul the best she could. "Her footing and positioning is off, she's attempting to use him in a kenjutsu form when he is a scythe, not a katana like her former partner." Kid observed.
"That may be true but remember, sword forms is all she knows, she is just trying to help Maka and Soul out." Lord Death reminded as he watched Bella cut through the kishin egg ending, their mission. "How has Maka been anyway?" Lord Death asked the young reaper who kept his eyes focused on the couple as they hugged each other over their success.
"She was out in the courtyard again, trying use her soul perception." Kid responded bluntly, Lord Death shifted his attention to his son, "You know she is hurting, you just need to try and figure something out that will take her mind, as well as all of your minds off of it. Maybe hang out with Petra and Lyra, have a party, anything that would be fun for you all." Lord Death suggested in an upbeat tone hoping that Kid would take his suggestion.
"What's the point, Maka will just try her soul perception again, Black*Star and Tsubaki left with Mifune to go and search for Kai themselves to try and give Maka piece of mind, and Petra and Lyra are in East Asia with Lamia, Scitus, Carta, Amicus, and Darman." Kid reminded his father.
"Right, well I'm gonna get in contact with Mifune and have him and Black*Star return, and I'm going to have all of you go out to a movie, some dinner, and then perhaps some volunteer work on the sections of Death City still left in ruin." Lord Death said cheerfully, if he had an actual face it would be beaming with excitement. Kid just sighed and relented to his fathers proding.
"Very well, we'll do as you ask." Kid replied as he turned to walk out.
"Excellent, I'm sure Spirit will also be happy to hear that she'll be doing something normal again." Lord Death shouted towards Kid, who couldn't careless over how his fathers weapon would feel. As he walked down the hallway he couldn't help but think about all that had happened, it had been a year and a half, and yet it still burned in his head as if it was yesterday.
"Kai...Where are you?" Kid asked himself as he left the Death Room.
In A Upscale Modern Apartment In Amsterdam
Kai walked through the door, he lazily removed Nox from his back and Whirlwind from his belt and put the two blades on the glass coffee table in the center of the living room. He allowed himself to fall onto the couch stretched out, the chains around his waist rattled as his body hit the leather. Kai turned his head to the large HD TV above the stone fireplace that was just adjacent to the couch. He reached for the remote that was located on a side table beside the arm of the chair that his head was resting on. The TV shot to life and he changed it to a news station.
"Hey look who's home." A voice spoke up out of nowhere. Kai turned his head to see his cousin Claude dressed in a brown long sleeve shirt with the sleeves rolled up to just under his elbows, and a black belt that held up dark green jeans that had a lot of zipped up pockets. As he walked into the apartment he placed his drag sword that was stained red in a display case by the door.
"Hey, how'd your contract go?" Kai asked his cousin as he copied Kai and just fell into the love seat that was placed to the right of the couch and angled towards the Tv slightly.
"It went well, course everything is easier when you can move the earth of your enemies with my aura so that I can get in close to them." Claude responded as he put his hands behind his head. "So you find any leads?" Claude asked as he began to watch the news with Kai.
"Nope, I explored an abandoned town tho just on the border near a forest. There was some dried blood so I was able to use my soul and determine that he was there around three weeks ago." Kai briefed his cousin who was half listening.
"Damn, this guy your looking for is crazy than you." Claude chuckled to himself.
"Don't make me want to use my wavelength on you." Kai responded, Claude looked to one of the mirrors beside the tv to see Kai grinning with the red rings in his eyes glowing.
"Enough of that, I already have to deal with Conrad when ever he decides he wants to track your movements." Claude responded, the rings dulled out and went back to being just red rings that circled the hazel colour in Kai's eyes.
"Yea true, I think I might have an idea of where Cett will turn up next though." Kai informed his cousin who shifted his position so he was facing his tired out cousin.
"What happened to having no leads?" Claude joked, Kai chuckled to himself.
"Oh please it's just an educated guess, I know he's moving towards Russia though if his pattern stays consistent, so I'll check a small village that's essentially cut off from a major town or city." Kai informed him, "We'll see though, hopefully I'm right so I can go home and be with Maka again." Kai sighed as he thought of her.
"Not a day goes by without her on your mind." Claude said seriously as he rested his head back on the arm again.
"Yeah, well hopefully I'll see her soon, when I'm safe enough to get rid of this soul protect and contain my wavelength." Kai stated.
"Hey what about me! I'm part of your wavelength to you know!" Malus yelled out from Kai's shadow.
"See your outbursts through my shadow are what makes me want to contain you even more, I really wish you stayed in my head where you belong." Kai complained, as Claude chuckled to himself over his cousin arguing with himself.
"Not my fault I discovered that we were strong enough to do this now." Malus said with cchuckle before he returned back into Kai.
"Well no worries you'll go home as soon as your trained." Claude finished. They watched the news for three hours until they heard a scream down the hall. Both Kai and Claude groaned.
"Another break in...So who goes this time." Claude asked, they both raised a hand and began to play rock, paper, scissors with Claude being the victor. Kai groaned and got up from the couch and walked to the door. "You aren't taking a weapon?" Claude asked, Kai shrugged and walked into the brightly lit hallway.
He moved down the hall until he found a door that had a broken hinge, he listened inside to hear the sound of people moving things around and a woman crying. Kai stepped into the room, all the burglars were dressed in black with demented clown masks on their faces.
"Looky here boys, we've got ourselves an idiot!" The lead burglar yelled to the others who all turned to see the newcomer, they all began to laugh hysterically with their boss while Kai stood their looking bored.
"Hm clowns...I hate clowns." Kai responded in a tired tone, he yawned as the burglars all stopped their laughing.
"Well you won't be looking at it long." The boss said as he raised his hand gun towards Kai's head and fired. Just as the bullet approached, Kai made a shadow rise from the floor to stop the bullet from hitting him. The burglars looked at each other in disbelief over what they just witnessed.
"What...What the hell are you!?" The boss asked with a sense of terror in his voice. As the shadow dropped the red rings in Kai's eyes were glowing again, the intruders froze in fear over the site.
"I'm your worst fucking nightmare." Kai stated with Malus's voice synchronizing with his. The rings in his eyes seemed to expand from him. In an instant everyone in the room dropped. Kai watched with joy as the intruders had been taken down by the only power he had free control over with the soul protect active. One of them had his head between his legs rocking back and forth stating it wasn't real, while another gripped his head and yelled our as if something was messing with him from the inside.
"There, the police should be here shortly." Kai responded as he began to leave the room. He stopped as he felt something grab his leg, he turned to see the shaking boss at his legs.
"Make it stop...PLEASE!?" he yelled out in agony as his fears began to surround him.
"Sorry, this is what you get, it'll wear off in about...five hours." Kai said with a wicked grin as he kicked the boss's hand off his jeans.
"You...vile demon!" The boss yelled before he curled up into a ball. Kai stopped at the comment, he didn't bother turning around.
"Interesting...I guess you could say I am." Kai responded as he continued to walk back to Claude's apartment, tired from the long day. As he walked into the apartment he saw the TV turned off and Claude asleep where he was laying. Kai shook his head and made his way to the guest room. He got under the sheets and took out his wallet and removed a picture. He gazed at it for a long time, he looked at him and Maka the night before the battle with Ruina, she was in his arms smiling, and so was he. A tear rolled down Kai's face as he put the picture away and wiped away the tear.
"Soon I can be with again." Kai said to himself as he shut the light off and fell asleep almost immediately.
