A Soul Eater FanFic: Your Eyes
Chapter 1: Loss

~.~

A girl with long, lavender colored hair tied in two low, loose pigtails and deep blue eyes stood at the door of her home terrified by the sight in front of her. Her feet were glued to the floor, and the rest of her was paralyzed by fear. She shook herself mentally and finally screamed, "Ali!" The girl took one step inside and transformed her right arm into a blade.

A pre-kishin hovered over the bloodied body of her sister. She was leaning against her propped up elbow while her right arm, which was in blade form, was raised in front of her in a defensive position. She caught sight of her younger sibling at the entrance and quickly yelled, "Romi Rain Jansette, don't you dare take another step! Get away from here! Run!"

"I-I can't!" Romi stuttered, shaking uncontrollably, "You'll die!" She took another step. The younger sibling gasped as the pre-kishin turned its head in her direction and started toward her.

"Dammit, Romi!" Ali cursed as she launched herself onto the back of the pre-kishin. She struggled to hold on while the monster screeched and swung around violently until Ali was thrown off it's back and slammed to the wall. The pre-kishin picked her up by her neck while Ali flailed and kicked frantically.

"Ali!" The younger girl cried, tears running down her cheeks. She desperately wanted to charge at the monster, but her legs were shaking so bad that she felt that if she moved, they would collapse.

Her sister simply smiled weakly, knowing her fate, and said, "I'm so sorry Romi."

"No!" Romi shrieked as the pre-kishin shoved it's disgusting claw right through her beloved sister's body. It grabbed at her soul hungrily and dropped it into it's drooling mouth. It whirled around so it faced her. It grinned demonically and said, "You're next."

"C'mon, Kid! Let's go, let's go!"

"Yes, I know! Stop pulling my arm already! It's going to come off and that will make me unsymmetrical!"

Liz and Patti were tugging at Kid's arms (Well, Patti was practically ripping it off his body.) and beckoning him to hurry up so that they could get back to Shibusen in time for the 'meet up'. (Maka suggested that, since they haven't really had time to hang out much, everyone should get together and play basketball, and then later go out for a group dinner.) The trio had agreed to attending, but they were soon going to find out that today's plans would have to be...delayed.

Kid suddenly stopped in his tracks. What's this? "Wait a minute. I sense something." Liz and Patti glanced at each other briefly and then nodded in understanding, letting go of his arms and transforming into their weapon forms. Kid cautiously followed the road he was on until he reached a simple, elegant house that was tinted grey all over. In here, He thought, It's definitely in here. He stepped through the already open door and his eyes widened.

There was a body of a girl-dead, he assumed-all covered in blood, with a huge hole in the middle of her chest. On the other side of the room sat another girl, also bloodied, backed up against the wall. There was a huge gash on her left thigh and her arms were raised above her head, attempting to shield herself. In front of her was a pre-kishin that was just about ready to lash at her until Kid raised Liz and Patti in it's direction.

"You there, don't move."

The pre-kishin turned around, obviously irritated, and grunted. "Well, if it isn't the son of Lord Death himself. What do you want?"

He didn't even bother to answer it's question. "Let that girl go." He nodded in her direction, "Or I'm going to have to eliminate you."

The pre-kishin laughed harshly and grabbed the girl by her throat. "Eliminate me, eh? Alright then, go ahead. But first I'm going to choke this girl to death and devour her soul." It's hand started to tighten around the girls throat, causing her to scream and pull at the pre-kishin's hand desperately.

Shots immediately rang out and the monster screeched and fell to the ground, covered all over in blood. All that was left was it's soul and its ugly dead body.

Liz and Patti transformed back into their human forms while Kid rushed over to the girl's side. He knelt down beside her and put a hand on her shoulder. "Are you alright?" He asked.

She looked up at him and big, bright blue orbs met his yellow ones. For a moment, all they did was stare at each other. In her eyes, Kid saw fear, pain, sorrow, guilt, loneliness, and...Awe? Before he could confirm it, the girl broke their eye contact and he followed her gaze down to the bleeding wound on her thigh.

Kid realized what she meant and quickly said, "Oh dammit, I'm sorry! Can you stand?"

The blue-eyed girl slowly tried to stand, putting a hand on Kid's shoulder for support, but was only able to go halfway before letting out a small gasp of pain and collapsing back to the ground. She glanced at Kid with a pleading look and shook her head.

He frowned and called out, "Liz, Patti! Can you call Soul and Maka and tell them that you'll be late?"

Liz and Patti appeared and either side of him, looking curiously at him. "That we'll be late? What about you, Kid?" Liz asked.

"Yeah,u weren't all three of us supposed to go?" Patti's childish voice added.

"Yes, but I think I'm going to take care of this first." He replied, never taking his eyes off the girl.

Both girls shrugged and went to the nearest phone booth while Kid and the mystery girl were left there. "What's your name?" Kid asked, since he'd never seen her around Shibusen, he assumed she didn't go there in the first place.

The girl's lips parted, and appeared to be saying something, but there were no words coming out of her mouth. With a look of panic on her face, she grabbed at her neck with both hands. She kept trying to talk, but it was hopeless. So instead, she looked directly at him and mouthed something.

"O-Omi?" He guessed, confused. But she shook her head and wrote something on the floor with her blood. As he read it, Kid struggled to suppress his irritation at the asymmetrical writing. He read it a second time and said, "Oh I see, your name is Romi."

Romi nodded, with a small smile on her lips. The smile faded fast as a pained expression replaced it, she groaned and pressed both her palms on her open cut.

Kid looked worriedly from the wound to her face and back again. She was losing blood, lots of blood. He had to get her back to the infirmary in Shibusen. He needed Beelzebub...Damn! He left it back home. Perfect, time to forget it, Kid.He thought to himself. He sighed and began to slide his hands in a good position to carry her when he hesitated. Kid looked up at her and asked, "May I?"

At first, it didn't seem like she understood. But her eyes widened a little and her cheeks became a light shade of pink. Romi nodded.

With that, Kid gently lifted her off the ground. In the corner of his eye, he saw her flinch. He smiled apologetically, "Sorry if this hurts." He carefully stepped around and over the scattered rubble and out the door. "Liz, Patti! Hurry, we need to get her to Shibusen!"

~...~

When Romi woke up, she had no idea where the hell she was.

She looked around the room at the unfamiliar white walls that surrounded her. Where was she? The last thing she remembered was going back home from a trip to the rooftop...Romi looked to her side and there, leaning against the window, was a boy with a black suit and three white lines in his hair, staring at her with a concerned expression on his face. But Romi didn't pay attention to the suit or his hair, what caught her attention were his yellow eyes. She stared at them. They looked familiar, like she'd seen them before...

And then she remembered. The blood, the pre-kishin , her sister... Her sister. Her only family, had died right before her eyes.

Slowly, she sat up and hugged her knees, ignoring the pain the shot through her thigh. Her sibling, her bestfriend, her last living family member, was lying on the blood-covered floor. Dead. Romi would never cry, never smile, never laugh, or even breath with her sister again. She was dead. Her beloved sister, Ali, was gone forever.

Romi -Sweet, and happy Romi- bowed her head and began to cry.
