I was running through the dark forest, running for my life. He was chasing me, for his own amusement. I was running, getting out of breath. Worst of all, I'm lost! I haven't been in this part of the forest before, it's really cold, dark, late. I looked at my watch and it said 22:45. I've NEVER been out this late. Especially in forests! Why can't he just give up?!

"Maka~" his voice echoed. I don't know where he is!

Let me back up.

(Earlier this day)

I was getting groceries for Tsubaki and I. When I got back to the apartment.

"Alright Maka how much do I owe you now?" She asked.

"Um, £12.34" I told, "oh, okay" Tsubaki said as she ran to get her purse.

"Here" she passed me the money. "Thanks" I thanked with a smile.

Tsubaki insisted to help put the groceries away. She did the puppy-dog-face, ugh.

"Thanks. I need to go to mama's. She phoned me that it was something important" I told.

"Can I come with you?" Tsubaki asked. "Um, shouldn't you look after BlackStar?" I said pointing at the black and light blue dog. In response he barked and wagged his tail.

"Yeah" she smiled as she kneeled down and stroked him.

"So, I'll see you later. BlackStar, behave" I told, he barked in response. I giggled and headed towards the door.

"See you Tsubaki" I waved. "Maka, wait. It's raining, at least take your jacket" she told, poking her head out of the doorway.

"Oh, yeah-" "ruff" BlackStar barked a little as he walked towards me with my red jacket in his mouth. I giggled.

"Thanks BlackStar" I patted him on the head. He barked as he stuck his tongue out and wagged his tail. He then ran to Tsubaki.

"Haha, bye Maka" she waved. She bent down a bit, "good boy. Want a treat" he barked, "come on then" she giggled as she ran in the apartment.

I giggled as I put my jacket on and started to head down stairs.

When I got to the door I saw loads of people running with there bags on their heads and some people were walking with umbrellas. It was pouring down. I opened the door and ran to the left of the building. I ran and was getting soaked. I stopped outside of the bakery. I don't have any money to buy any bread. So I took a few paces back until I saw an alley way. I stopped in the shade and caught my breath. I ran to the back of the bakery and jumped over the wire fence. I then ran into the forest.

It then stopped raining, so I took my drenched jacket off and tied it around my waist. I started to walk so I could catch my breath back from the running. It's a good thing I took gymnastics as a kid, or I would never be able to jump over that fence. I suppose I could've walked through the gate, but jumping is more fun. After a while of walking, I decided to skip. While I was skipping, I saw a deer in the bushes, it was eating the leaves. I took a picture, with the flash off so it wouldn't scare it. I started walking again so I wouldn't miss any wild life. The sun was drying me from the earlier rain, it must've been a shower. It was funny seeing those people with bags and suitcases over their heads running.

My phone rang, which made me jump. I looked at the contacts, and saw it was Tsubaki.

"Hello Tsubaki?" I answered quizzically.

"Hi, are you there yet?" She asked, is she really that caring, or does she just want to know why I was called here.

"I'm in the forest, almost there actually. Is everything alright over there?" I asked. I could here BlackStar bark in the background.

"Yeah, we're fine" she said, "oh, Tsubaki, I saw a deer eating, didn't notice me or anything" I told.

"Cool! Was it a male or female?" "Female. I'll send you a picture" I said. So I went on my images and sent it her.

"Cool!" She shrieked. We haven't seen a deer or anything close to that in ages.

"Alright, call me when you're coming home, bye" she hung up. So I carried on walking.

Once I got to the cottage I saw mama in the window, so I walked up to it and knocked. Mama looked at me and signalled for me to come in, so I walked through the door.

"Hi mama" I greeted, "hi Maka" she greeted as she gave me a cookie, I thanked her for it.

After I had finished eating and drinking she asked if I was alright and what was going on. So we talked on until a about, half a hour or something like that.

"Um, mama, why did you want me to come over so urgently?" I asked.

"Oh, well" she started then looked in the living room.

"There's someone I would like you to meet" she said as she got up from the table and walked to the living room, so I got up and followed.

"Maka, this is Soul" mama introduced a white haired boy, about my age.

"Hi Soul, I'm Maka" I smiled as I extended my hand out.

He looked at me, I saw his eyes, his eye colour was blood red, some people say crimson, I might start. I saw him smirk a bit, but he smiled straight after and shook my hand.

"Hello Maka, I'm Soul Eater" he smiled.

"Um, I adopted him, so he's your new foster brother Maka."

So, here's a beginning of a new story! Sorry it's a short chapter! :•(

This story isn't going to be a long one.
