A/N: The first chapter in my new fic, I know its short but the other chapters will be much longer. I've always wanted to do a Soul Eater fic. I hope you like it!

The sun was as black as night. So it was supposed to be since there was an eclipse. What Maka Albarn didn't expect is what came along with the eclipse she was waiting for. It had been a normal day for her, as normal as it could be. She clocked out of work early and walked to town. Ebony was a small town in the United States. Yet it always seemed deserted to her. She walked through the back alleys taking no attention to the scraps of trash and the occasional hobo or alley cat. She walked that way every day, and knew she was in no danger. There were no such thing as danger in Ebony. The police were a strict bunch of men who were plugged into the high school so any rumor of a party or any dealings were flushed out quickly. It took Maka a while to get out of the town and into the fields, she climbed a large hill. And as she reached the top she stood and watched as the moon over came the sun making it as black as night. She smiled and watched.

"I guess I wasn't the only who thought this would be a great place to view the Eclipse." Maka turned around quickly, her pig tails hitting her in the face.

"Who are you?" She asked taking a step back wary of the strangers face covered in the shadows of his hood.

"I don't have a name, not a real one anyways. Some people call me Soul, many other just Eater. My name is Soul Eater, and your name is Maka Albarn." He said.

Maka took two steps back now feeling a bit scared.

"How do you know my name?"

"Sorry, can't tell you that! I can only tell you this, I'll becoming back for you in 2 weeks time. Make sure your bags are packed."

"What the hell! Who are you!" I told you I'm Soul Eater." He said looked up enough of the sun was there to reflect against his blood red eyes and white shark like teeth. Yet the other features of his face remained hidden.

"This is the part where most people run." He said with a laugh. "I'll be watching you so don't even think about running away!"

And so Maka did and she didn't stop running till she got home and locked the door. She took a bottle of whiskey and laid down in her bed. She drank herself to sleep hoping she'd forget what happened. In a weeks time her paranoia seemed to have disappeared and a young polite man asked her to dinner. Things seemed to go back to normal and with a little help of whiskey at night she forgot all about the man with red eyes and passed it off as a hallucination due to stress.

"Maka!" Her father yelled from the other room. She rolled her eyes and went to him.

"Where's all my whiskey!?" He asked.

"You drank it all!" She said lying through her teeth. "Don't you remember or were you too drunk to notice?!"

His face went red and he didn't dare look at Maka's face. Her father was a drunkard, and every night he would drink the hours away, go to work with a hangover, and come home sober enough to drink a kegs worth of beer. Maka never knew why this was, she figured it was just his way of coping with her mother leaving him. Some nights he would leave the house and go to the local strip club. Her father disgusted her but he loved Maka without reserve.

One night her father, Spirit, was drunker than she had ever seen before. He came into the house stumbling with a brown paper bag with booze inside. He kept mumbling something about death, death this and that. Then about her mother Kami, and Frankenstein. Maka figured that he was so drunk his imagination was running away with him! Still though she pondered about what he said wondering what was true or not. Now Spirit sat there now depressed for their cellar was empty.

"Maka darling, Papa is going to the store!" He said.

She knew what that meant, he was going to the whorehouse outside of town. He wouldn't be back till late night or early morning. Depended if they ended up sleeping together or not.

"Bye." She said apathetically but he took no notice as he marched out of the house with glee.

Maka went back to her room and finished preparing herself. She wore a simple black dress with black nylons. Her hair was pulled up into 2 pigtails with black lace ribbons. She smiled and walked to the hall she was having dinner at. The hall was a new restaurant/ballroom. Where you ate dinner then could spend the rest of the night dancing on the floor to live music. It was quite expensive and she had never been there before. Her date came from money and influence so he was able to get them a table at the last minute.

She arrived at the restaurant just as he had. They sat down and enjoyed a conversation over dinner. She enjoyed herself and even after their first date she was sure he was the one. He was the perfect gentleman and he was quite attractive. He was exactly what she wanted out of a man and it almost seemed too much.

"Maka would you like to dance?" He asked holding his hand out to her.

"Yes! I would like that very much." She responded taking his hand. They walked out onto the dance floor and danced to a slow song. Soon a small rumbling came from his pants. He pulled out his phone quickly and checked the caller ID.

"I'm sorry Maka will you excuse me for a second."

She smiled and nodded. He left just as the song ended. Over the intercom they announced that a new musician would be performing, a pianist of great skill. Maka brimmed with excitement, her favorite instrument was the piano. The way someones fingers could dance across ivory keys excited her and the sound the grand piano made would make her melt. She walked over towards the piano to see the musician. No one else seemed to notice the pianist nor notice the change of music. The piano music was harsh yet tragically beautiful. She watched from behind as the pianists fingers danced across the keys making a beautifully tragic sound. She looked around and many people looked displeased with the music. Even a few boos from the crowd rang out but other than that no one took further notice to the music. Eventually the song ended and the band picked back up. She felt bad for him, and approached him from behind. He wore a black pinstripe suit with a red button down shirt and a black tie.

"Those people don't know what they're talking about. Your playing was beautiful." She said as he covered the keyboard, he had strange white hair that she only seemed to take notice of now.

"Thanks, I guess there not cool enough to understand real music when they hear it!" She was struck frozen at the sound of his voice. It was the voice of the man on the hill. The man turned around and revealed a toothy grin.

"Ah ah ah Maka! Dont scream, you're the only one who can see the true me so if you scream they'll think your insane." He stood up from the piano and took her hand in his. She seemed to be struck frozen. "Now dance with me."

Too scared to disobey the monster so close to her she nodded with a gulp and they walked out into the dance floor.

"You never packed a bag. " He said into her ear. "Don't worry though I have people on that right now."

She felt herself tense up a little, and he just laughed in response.

"You shouldn't be afraid of me Maka, you should be more afraid of your date." For the first time Maka looked at him, her curiosity overpowering her fear. "After all he works for a Kishin and he's going to try to knock you out. So that he can bring you to your boss so he can eat your soul."

Fear chilled through her body but the man, Soul Eater only pulled her closer.

"Dont worry I wont let that happen." He whispered into her ear.

"Who are you?" Was all she could muster.

"I keep telling you my name is Soul Eater, leader of the gang Soulless. I'm a weapon and after tonight your going to become my meister."

She didn't have much time to ask him what the hell he meant before she was pulled away from him, by her date. Soul moved quickly, as if to avoid further conflict.

"Goodbye Maka, I'll see you real soon." Was all she heard. Her date questioned her, and he seemed almost seemed to angry over it. He shouldn't have been so swept up with her that he was jealous so she figured whatever happened over the phone must've been bad. They only stayed for a few songs before he complained of lateness and asked if he could walk her home. Maka still wary of Soul's words told him she didn't need an escort.

"Maka I insist! I can't just let you walk home alone." He said as he followed her across the street from the hall.

"I told you I'm fine now go away!" She said no frustrated beyond belief. She walked into the alley hoping to lose him in the in-familiarity.

"What kind of gentleman would I be if I let you get raped." He asked her, still in pursuit.

"Your not a gentleman though otherwise you would respect my wishes and leave me alone!" She yelled never turning to look behind her. Only a few alleys more and she'd be home, but she was never destined to make it.

"You're right Maka, I'm not a gentleman." His voice sounded different than before she felt a hand grab her arm and another place a cloth over her mouth. In shock she breathed in sharply she was quick enough though to break his grasp. She stumbled to the ground the anesthesia starting to slowly take effect.

Suddenly Soul appeared out of nowhere and through blurred vision Maka watched as Soul's arm turned in a single long blade and slash across her dates chest killing him only instantly. Soul's arm reverted and he whipped on the blood. Ever worse Soul stood over his victims body and forced his hand into his body, but the skin never broke. Out with his clean hand came strange blue orb with a trailing light that reminded her of fire. She watched terrified as Soul put it in his mouth and swallowed it whole. She passed out shortly after realizing he just ate that mans soul.
