"It's almost over." Maka sighed inwardly as she apprehensively stepped on the chair. "All the pain, anger, hatred will be gone soon" she thought with a mixture of fear and joy. "Just a few seconds longer and I can be at peace." She smiled as she put the makeshift noose around her neck. A name escaped her lips before she could silence it. "Soul" she said softly. A tear ran down her check. Him. How could he ever love a monster like her? "Maka." She could hear him. She closed her eyes leaning off the chair. "Maka!" she heard him again louder this time. "I'm doing this for you Soul." She thought to herself. "You can find a better partner than me" she pushed herself off the chair, then sweet blackness.

…

Soul walk in the apartment and heard it. It was faint be he was sure that Maka called his name. "Maka." He called back but there was no answer. He went to her room to see the door was left unlocked. "That's strange Maka never leaves her bedroom door unlocked." He thought to himself. He was not prepared for what he saw when he opened the door. There was his meister, no his love standing on a chair with a belt around her neck. "Maka!" he yelled and rushed towards her but only a second too late. She had already pushed herself off the chair. Soul quickly cut it with his scythe arm and undid the belt around her neck. He bent down to check to see if she was breathing. She was but it was faint and he could see the bruises around her neck start to form. Shakily he stood up and called Professor Stien. "Hello" said Stien rather tediously. "Stien its Maka, she tried to hang herself, she is barely breathing and I don't know what to do. She is out cold. What do I do?" Soul said breathlessly "Soul calm down I'm on my way." And with that Stien hung up the phone.

…

Ten minutes had passed in what seemed like hours before Professor Stien walked into the small apartment. "Where is she?" he asked with concern and anxiety plastered across his face. Soul merely motioned to Maka's bedroom. He could not face to see what his meister had done. Stien quickly went to his work rushing into her bedroom. Soul stood at the kitchen island. His body trembling when he saw it. It was the note that she had left him. The last words that he might ever read from her.

Dear Soul,

If you are to read this then I am dead. Don't be sad. This is not your fault. I have felt this way for a long time. I am tired of hurting the ones I care about most. Especially you Soul. This is the only time I can tell you this but I love you Soul. I always have since the first time I met you. I am so sorry about all of the times that I have hurt you. I am sorry about the scar on your chest. That I could not be strong enough to protect you like you have protected me. I know now that the only way to save the ones I love and make their lives better is if I stop existing. Don't cry for trash like me. Good bye Soul.

Maka,

Tears fell to the island as Soul's world came crashing down. She had felt like this for a long time. How had he not noticed? Was this his fault? Could it be that his meister didn't understand that he just couldn't live without her? He felt the corners of his vision start to go dark as Stien came back into the room. "She is stable for now I need to take her to the D.W.M.A. for better treatment and conditions. She is not out of the woods yet but thanks to you she has a shot to make it. Soul?" Stien said putting his hand on Soul's shoulder. "Yeah, fine just call me when she wakes up. I want to be there." Soul said more to the island than to Stien. Stien nodded and went to pick up Maka. Before he left Soul looked over to Stien and said, "Will you leave your cigarettes?" Stien look a little surprised but tossed the half a pack of cigarettes to the boy "She'll be ok I'll make sure of it." And with that Stien left with Maka. Soul picked up the pack of cigarettes and lit one. He stopped smoking when he had met Maka because he knew that she couldn't stand the smell but now he couldn't help it even if he meant he had to be a little uncool.
