Soul Eater: Inner Blood.

If you aren't fighting Demons, you aren't fighting mind control. – Unknown.

Kimi Usara is different then others. She is the replica of Maka's nightmares. Maka and the others are convinced that she is the offspring of him. But Soul believes there is something different. Something that binds the two.

''Soul. You need a Technician. And Kimi needs a Weapon.'' Shinigami-sama spoke calmly.

Kimi&Mari owned by me.
Soul Eater owned by original owners.

Technicians and their Weapons – Kimi and Mari, Maka and Soul. No longer partners?

Bleep. Bleep. Bleep. Bleep.

Bright.

It was bright.

Almost too bright.

Mixed voices murmuring in her ear.

''This is so uncool.'' a strangely familiar voice muttered.

''Oh shuttap, it was your fault anyway.'' another strangely familiar voice said.

''What! Why me again!'' the first voice exclaimed.

''Because it can never be the fault of the amazing Black*star~! YAHOO~!'' the second voice yelled at the top of his lungs.

''Black*Star!'' a female voice hissed, ''Out! You'll wake her up!''

''Ouch~ouch~ouch~!'' the voice, Black*Star yelped and the noise of someone being dragged away was heard and slowly died down.

''Oh great. Now I'm here alone. So uncool.'' the first voice muttered. A scraping noise of a chair being pushed back reached her ears and then footsteps and the shutting of a door. The footsteps returned and it was silent.

Too silent.

There was something..

missing-

''MARI!'' Kimi shot up and looked around wildly, ripping wires off of her body.

~ the machine on the left of the bed started going haywire, signalling her death.

''Holy crap~!'' the voice yelled.

BANG~!

Kimi looked to the side and saw the Scythe from the fight lying down on the floor, still seated in a chair.

''WHAT DID YOU DO WITH MARI!'' Kimi snarled and jumped out of the bed she was in.

''AACK~!'' the Scythe's eyes almost bulged out of their sockets and blood started spouting from his nose as his head dropped backwards limply.

''SOUL!'' the door slammed open and a golden haired girl was standing there with the 'Assassin' from the fight and a girl with long dark hair.

''Kimi-chan~!'' a voice cheered from behind the golden haired girl.

''Mari!'' Kimi sighed in relief and then widened her eyes, ''What happened?'' she asked sharply.

''It wasn't as bad as last time Kimi-chan. You only fainted and then Soul-kun carried you here.'' Mari beamed at her from under the golden haired girl's arm.

''Soul..kun?'' Kimi frowned in confusion.

''C-could y-you please cover- up?'' a voice groaned from behind her and she glanced down.

Her chest was completely wrapped up in bandages, a red smudge going from her collarbone to the top of her left breast. The bandages under her breasts were unravelling and thus as she had stood up the Scythe had the perfect view of the bottom of her breasts.

''Where are my bandages, Mari?'' Kimi asked coolly.

''Here Kimi-chan.'' Mari said softly and walked over to a table on the right of the bed Kimi had been in where Kimi's bandages laid in a heap.

''And the rest of my clothes?'' Kimi asked as she started unravelling the bandages and wrapping them around her neck as a scarf.

''Well.. They got kind of wrecked with the fight.. So Liz-chan threw them away.'' Mari fingered the end of her dress.

Kimi glanced down. Her upper body was wrapped up in bandages and a baggy pair of red skinny jeans clung dangerously low to her hips.

''Never mind then.'' Kimi sighed slightly and then looked at Mari. She held out her hand and Mari took it, her bottom lip sticking out and her eyes wide.

''Are.. Is this it, Kimi-chan?'' she whispered.

''Yes Mari. I brought you here. This is the end of the line. You're safe and it's my duty to go back out there.'' Kimi told her.

''B-but.. You're my partner.. My Technician..'' Mari protested.

''I am... up until now. We came to Shibusen for a reason Mari. I'm sorry if it feels like I tricked you, but in Shibusen you are safe and can find your real partner.'' Kimi said, her face blank.

''K-kimi-chan!'' Mari exclaimed as Kimi pulled her hand out of Mari's.

''I take it these jeans are from one of you?'' Kimi questioned the Shibusen students.

''Well.. They are..'' the black haired girl looked at the Scythe nervously.

''Mine. But don't even think of taking them off.'' he said loudly and stood up. True. He was wearing an identical pair.

''Even thought I bet you are thinking of it.'' the golden haired girl muttered under her breath.

''Thank you. For.. taking care of me. And for taking Mari in.'' Kimi said and then started to walk towards the door.

Soul watched as if in automatic Maka jumped backwards as the girl walked towards her. She slightly raised her eyebrow at Maka and then passed Black*Star and Tsubaki without even a second glance at Black*Star.

''Kimi-chan..'' Mari whispered on the other side of the bed.

''Kimi-chan is my Technician.'' ''Kimi-chan always saves my life.'' ''Kimi-chan is always there for me.'' ''Kimi-chan always protects me.'' ''Kimi-chan is my best friend~!'' '''Kimi-chan is fine, Soul-kun. Don't worry. She's strong.'' ''Kimi-chan and Mari will always be together!~''

The words Mari had spoken as he had carried the girl- Kimi- inside echoed through his head. The pain of loosing a partner you care deeply for. Soul was the one who knew it the best.

''Coward.''

The six letters escaped his mouth before he could do anything.

Kimi froze.

Maka gaped at him.

''Pardon?'' Kimi said softly.

''Coward.'' Soul repeated, his fists shaking and his heart thumping hard for reasons he didn't have a clue.

You are afraid of her.

Shut up.

She looks so much like him doesn't she.

Shut up.

And you almost lost everything to him.

Shut up.

His power. His strength. It's just like reliving a nightmare.

You're supposed to be gone, Little Demon. SHUT UP!

''And why am I a coward?'' Kimi asked coolly, turning around to face him.

''You don't dare stay in a place where you know everyone will hate you for what you look like. So you decide to only drop Mari off here and then leave as if you had never existed. Well let me tell you one thing Kimi. That is so uncool.'' Soul said coldly. Mentally slapping himself.

That was so uncool? That uncool part was uncool, Soul.

I know.. I wasn't going to say that..

Laughter. Soul looked at her shocked. She was just.. Laughing.

''You are an idiot, Demon Scythe. You now nothing of me.'' her eyes narrowed darkly.

''What is there not to know. You know I spoke the truth.'' Soul took a step forwards.

''You weren't even quite near the truth, Demon Scythe. I'm leaving for another reason. One that is not cowardly as well. Once you find out that reason, then you'll be sorry for everyone word you just spoke. Now, I won't say goodbye, because this isn't a goodbye. It's neither a farewell, it's nothing.'' Kimi spoke softly with a slight dangerous undertone and swept down the hallway out of sight.

''Hi guys. Has anyone seen..'' Liz trailed off as she saw Kimi turning a corner.

''Kid~!'' Patti filled in obliviously.

''No.'' Soul muttered and pushed passed her, going the opposite direction Kimi had left in.

''If this is true..'' a figure clothed in black with a white mask on, mused, ''Then things might be turning ugly again.''

''What is it then father? Her Soul was bleeding.'' Kid asked in complete confusion.

''It's true, Shinigami-sama.'' Stein nodded after blowing out a cloud of toxic smoke.

''She is still here I take it?'' Shinigami glanced at Stein and Kid.

''I.. think so.'' Kid frowned.

''Let's have a look then~'' Shinigami beamed and turned to his mirror.

''Sorry. We haven't seen Kid since the fight ended.'' Tsubaki apologized to Liz.

''What's going on?'' Liz asked them once she caught sight of Mari's bewildered and hurt face.

''The Kishin Asura girl.. she left.'' Maka spoke through gritted teeth and clenched her fists.

Shinigami whirled around to face Kid.

''You have to go after her! She can not leave Death City!'' he exclaimed.

''What! Why?'' Kid's eyes widened.

''She just can't! It'll be disastrous! Go go go~!'' Shinigami flapped his arms in panic.

Kid glanced once at Stein and then sprinted out of the Death Room.

''Kid!'' Stein's voice echoed after him, calling out something that made him freeze for a moment and then sprint faster.

He ran through the guillotined hallway and busted through the doorway at the end, sprinting through the hallways to the Hospital Wing.

He ran around a corner just to

SMACK~

''YOU IDIOT! THAT WAS SO UNCOOL!'' Soul roared as he rubbed his head that had collided with Kid's head.

''Soul!'' Kid gasped and then also rubbed his head.

''...''

''NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~!'' the scream echoed through whole Death City.

''A BUMP~! A BUMP ON MY PERFECT SYMMETRICAL HEAD~!'' Kid wailed.

''Oh shit.'' Soul muttered, a sweat drop forming on his head.

''Damn~ Distressed~ Die~'' Kid moaned, thumping the floor in a corner.

''I-it's okay Kid!'' Soul waved his hands attempting to calm him down, ''Why were you running?'' he then asked, realizing Liz and Patti were really the only ones who could calm him down in one of his episodes.

''Oh shit! I almost forgot! Come on!'' Kid exclaimed shooting up, grabbing Soul's wrist and sprinting down the hallway again.

''What are you doing!'' Soul yelled at him, ''Dammit. Bipolar much?'' he muttered.

''Liz! Patti! Maka!'' Kid called out as he turned the corner to where the Hospital Wing was.

''Kid-kun~!'' Patti cheered.

''Hurry up. We need to get that girl back!'' Kid told them and turned to run to the exit of Shibusen.

''No.''

Maka's voice was horribly cold.

''What?'' Kid turned back around.

''I said no. I don't want her back,'' Maka said calmly, ''Who knows she can be related to him. I don't want someone like that walking around here. We're better off without her.''

''It's fathers orders.'' Kid folded his arms, ''Then Black*Star? Tsubaki?''

''I'll go with you.'' Soul spoke up and glanced up from rubbing his wrist that Kid had almost squeezed the life out of.

''No you won't!'' Maka exclaimed sharply.

''Maka-'' Soul started.

''No. I'm the Technician. My decision is final.'' Maka growled, shaking all over.

''If you insist..'' Soul looked her in the eye, ''Then from now on until I decide. You are not my Technician any more.''

Every. Single. Word cut straight through his heart as he said it.

But

You made the right choice boy.

Do you think?

Of course I do! The girl means nothing except for trouble. And I live for trouble!

Soul growled and shook his head as he turned around and started walking.

''S-soul..'' Maka's eyes were wide and she grabbed the door post.

Kid, Liz and Patti glanced at her, but followed Soul quietly.

Tsubaki moved forwards and placed her hand on Maka's shoulder. The golden haired pigtailed Technician sunk to the floor on her knees.

Tears were welling up in her eyes and a furious fire lit inside of her.

''I KNEW IT! ALL MEN ARE THE SAME WORTHLESS DISGUSTING PIGS! ALL THEY THINK OF IS SEX~! AND YOU ARE EXACTLY THE SAME SOUL EATER EVANS!'' Maka screamed at him as he turned the corner out of sight.

''Soul?'' Liz said carefully as they left Shibusen.

''I'm fine.'' Soul muttered, though Liz and Patti could see he was lying.

And Kid saw straight through his Soul.

It was wavering and darkening.

'Little Demon has awaken again.' Kid thought darkly.

Kimi walked through the quickly darkening streets of Death City. She hadn't glanced back to the place she had left Mari.

Abandoned you mean?

Shut up.

Why Kimi-chan! Don't be so mean. We both know-

I thought I told you to shut up.

But that doesn't mean I will listen~

You will. For now I am still the boss here.

For now yes.

Kimi shuddered and widened her eyes in surprise. She hadn't felt this much emotions for a long time..

''Halt!'' a voice shouted behind her and she stopped.

''Hehe, we've got one now, boss!'' a second voice sniggered.

''Turn around and put your hands where we can see them!'' the first voice ordered.

Kimi turned around slowly and looked at her two 'attackers'.

One was big. And big meaning just plain fat. He had a sneer on his face, whiskers and was standing with his hands in his sides, leering at Kimi.

''She's a pretty one too.'' the second guy wheezed in glee. He was tall and lanky, with glasses and a slight beard.

''Good evening M'lady. What's a pretty girl like you wandering around the streets on your own in the dark.'' the big guy sneered.

Get him! Now!

Shut up.

Well so-o-rry!

''Yeah!'' the lanky guy piped up, ''there could be strange figures out at night. Won't want to meet them in the dark.''

''Hmm.. Really?'' Kimi said calmly.

''Yes. Really.'' the big guy took a step forwards.

''Like.. someone like-'' Kimi's foot shot forwards and her hands shot out, ''Me.''

''Don't let her fight again. I can't tell you why yet, but it'll be bad. Really bad.'' Stein called.

Kid froze. Soul, Maka and Crona's faces appeared in his mind and he started sprinting faster.

''LIZ! PATTI!'' a voice yelled and Kimi's head snapped up.

Two bullet's whirled passed her head and drove straight through the heads of her 'attackers'.

She narrowed her eyes as Death the Kid jumped in front of her and claimed the two bobbing souls that was left of the two men.

''Kimi.'' a calm voice said behind her and she whirled around.

''Demon Scythe.'' she nodded her head ever so slightly and felt her body tense up.

Kill him.

Next Chapter:

''Come on then! Kill me!'' Kimi challenged.

''KID!'' Liz screamed as Kid hit the wall and crashed through it.

''IT'S NOT TRUE! IT'S A LIE!'' Soul roared grabbing fists full of hair.

A/N:

For those who were quick to read the second chapter, my apologies. I accidentally put up a different chapter. My Shaman King one. Again, very sorry. Hmm, seems like I'm messing up a lot with this story, lmao.
