Yeah I'm back. It took me a while. This story seems to have come to me different from my other one. With my other story it was just one huge spill that I just typed but with this it's all over the place. I literally have written bits of pieces for chapters that should be at the end or the middle of the series. Weird. Oh Yeah I haven't given up on my other story though. I was just overly concerned with this one and hadn't had time to work on that last chapter. Now that I'm finished I can start it. It should be out in a few days. Now for my thank yous to my wonderful and amazing viewers.
Thank you Guest for your review. I didn't even realize it until I reread Demon's tamer. I wasn't trying to copy the outfit though. I just needed a way to show how his tattoos reacted when weapons were summoned. Like in Devil May Cry. That's not his regular outfit. I don't know about the other fanfictions your talking about so can you please tell me about them in your next review.

Now that that's done. On to the story
I don't own Soul Eater
A small white-haired child walked through the hallways of a large Victorian estate. He took no interest in the priceless artifacts and paintings that surrounded him. When he reached the music room of the glorious home, he was met with a older boy who looked very much like him sitting on the knee of another gentleman who was sitting in front of a Steinway & Sons piano. He seemed to be trying to teach the young man a song. The boy slammed his hands down on the keys, producing a loud and harsh sound.
"I can't do it. The piano sucks anyway"he huffed. The younger boy walked into the room.
"Don't blame the piano cause you suck at it. You can't be as cool as I am with it." The boy mocked.
"Whatever Soul. Everybody knows the violin is better than the piano."
"No it's not Wes. Violins are for pansies. Pianos are the manly instruments. Right Dad?" Soul asked. His father began to look between them with a very worried expression.
"Well eh um"he spoke timidly.
"Dad the violin is better than the piano right?" Wes asked.
"Eh um"
"Boys stop bothering your father and go get dressed. The guests will be arriving soon. And Soul you will wear a suit. No buts about it." Their mother said. Soul frowned as Wes snickered at him. "Wes I don't see anything funny so please stop chuckling." Soul smirked."You two can go now."
"Yes mother" they said in unison and both began to leave to get dressed. Their father let out a sigh in relief.
"Thank you. I didn't know what I'd do if you didn't come in. Those boys always have to compete in something."he said as he wrapped an arm around her waist.
"Yes well boys will be boys. Dante" she frowned. He noticed her sudden mood change.
"Annabelle? Is something wrong?" He asked.
"I have a feeling that something bad is going to happen."she answered.
"Everything will be fine. He will never find us here so stop worrying about it we have guests coming." He rubbed her back reassuringly.
"You're right. I'll just go ahead and get ready. You coming?"
"No I have something to do."
"Okay" she kissed his cheek and began to leave the room. When she left, Dante frowned and picked up the phone that was in the room.
"Yes master. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Yes. Can you go around the estate and check the barrier. Once you do that strengthen it"
"But Master what about the guests coming?"
"I'll meet them before they reach it. As long as I'm with them the barrier should let them pass."
"As you wish Master" Dante hung up and sighed. 'I hope nothing goes wrong and it was just her being too worried.' He thought.
The doorbell rang.
"Boys come down stairs and greet the guests please." Annabelle yelled up the stairs. Not too long after, you could see Soul and Wes racing down the stairs, pushing and shoving, trying to be the first to reach the bottom. "Boys" she yelled with a disapproving frown. They immediately straightened up and walked down the rest of the stairs in a dignified manner. A man with red shoulder length hair that was tied in a ponytail and blue-green eyes came through the door. He was accompanied by a beautiful woman with long ash blonde hair and forest green eyes.
"Hello Mrs. Evans it's a pleasure to meet you" the man said as he shook her hand.
"The pleasure is mine Mr. Albarn" she replied. She turned to the woman beside him. "You must be his beautiful wife Kami Albarn"
"Yes. That is I." She replied as she shook her hand. Kami then turned to the young boys who were sneaking small shoves at each other without their mother noticing. "And who might you two gentleman be."
"I'm Wesley Evans"he said as he bowed.
"Nice to meet you and you are?" She said.
"I'm Soul Evans" he said as he grinned wildly at her.
"Soul your teeth" Wes whispered. Soul closed his mouth and sheepishly turned away. Kami noticing the now tense atmosphere, she asked him what was wrong.
"Because it scares people, I was told not to show my teeth." He shamefully said.
"Well I'm not afraid of your teeth." She said. Soul looked up in disbelief.
"Really?"he asked.
"Yes. In fact I think they're cool" Soul beamed with happiness. "I have a daughter about your age who would also think the same thing."
"Eww girls are disgusting." Soul said with a look of loathing. Spirit began to mumble about how white haired octopus heads had no right to talk about his wonderful daughter. "I heard that pervy old man." Soul shouted.
"Why you little-" Kami turned to her husband glaring at him so bad that if looks could kill he would have been pulverized on the spot.
"Spirit please refrain from using such language in front of the children"
"Yes of course."he shivered.
"It seems everyone has exchanged pleasantries" Dante said as he gave his coat to the family butler.
"We can now go ahead to the dining hall." Annabelle announced. Once everyone was seated, dinner was served and the children left for bed, the adults began the conversation they had planned to discuss.
"About the marriage proposal" Dante started.
"Ah yes about that. When my daughter comes of age, I was hoping to give her hand to your youngest son" Kami proclaimed.
"I'm fine with that. When should we tell the-" their conversation was cut off when the ground began to rumble. The butler charged into the room. His chest heaving from running to them.
"Master! They have found us" he collapsed onto the floor.
"Crap! How did they find us with the barrier put up. The only one who could destroy would be" He trailed off as his eyes widened drastically."Asura" he whispered.
"Shit Dante go grab your sons and hide them. We'll hold the demons back as long as we can. Kami call Stein and tell him Plan B is initiated" Spirit demanded. As everyone scrambled to do what he told them, he summoned his scythe and posted himself at the door. The ground began to shake even more and a disembodied voice screamed KILL THEM. "God dammit demons. Can you leave me alone for five seconds"he shouted. A mass horde of lessor demons, Known as Stygians entered the house. They resembled cracked porcelain dolls filled with a demonic black fluid, with steam punk-style weapons grafted to their arms. Since they were weak demons, Spirit was able to destroy all of them in mere minutes. Kami returned to him a second later.
"It has been done" she said as he glanced at her. She then summoned her sword and stood guard beside him.
"This sure does bring back memories of the war doesn't it" he asked as he turned to her. "Yes it does. Except last time I was against you and I kicked your ass. I still don't understand how you fell for me at that moment though."
"That's because I like my women strong-willed and ruthless" He smirked as he wrapped his arms around her.
"Is that so" she replied. They moved closer to each other and shared a kiss. This would probably their last so they made it count. It was filled with their love for each other and their sadness that they may be apart after this. It also was filled with the gratefulness to the other for helping created such a beautiful daughter. As they parted more demons finally arrived. They looked to them still wrapped in each others arm.
"You ready" he whispered.
"Always have been" she replied. They both got into their fighting stances and yelled.
"Let's go!"
Dante and Annabelle raced up the stairs to their children's rooms. "Annabelle I'll get Wes. You go and get Soul. We will meet in the basement" he shouted as he continued running to Wes's room. Annabelle ran into Soul's room and to his bed. Despite everything going on she still smiled at her son who was sleeping peacefully. She nudged him until he woke up.
"Come on Soul. You need to get up. We have to go."
"Where are we going?" he asked as he rubbed his eyes.
"Somewhere Now just hurry up and come on" She picked up her son and began to run down the stairs. She ran to the study and looked at the bookcase. After she chose the right book the bookcase moved revealing a stairway. (Yea I did the cliche secret stairway behind the bookcase thing Got a problem?)
"Wait Mom what about Wes and Dad?"
"It' okay sweetie. They are on their way now" she said as she continued walking down the stairs. When they reached the bottom, the lanterns lit up revealing a huge steel door. She closed her eyes and her hands began to glow red as if fire was emitting from them. The door glowed red and then it opened. Soul looked at her in amazement.
"That's so cool Mom! Can you teach me to do that?"he asked.
"It's not the time Soul" she said as she closed the door behind her. They went into a huge room with no windows and marble pillars that ran from the ceiling to the floor. In the middle of the room was a huge table and some chairs and a couch. Not to long after they arrived, so did Dante with Wes following close behind him.
"Great everyone's here"
Meanwhile upstairs Kami and Spirit were killing every single demon that dared to come through the door as merciless as they could.
"Is this all he sent after us" Spirit chuckled.
"I know right. I could do this all day" Kami laughed. Right then a huge group of scarves swarmed into the room. They began to wrap around Kami.
"Kami!" Spirit yelled as he ran to her but the scarves wrapped around his arms and legs. They pinned him the wall and covered his mouth to stop his yelling. A very thin and pale young man walked into the room. The scarves that were wrapped around them seemed to be connected to the scarves around his neck. He seemed to be wearing multiple shirts covered by one red and black stripped blazer. He also wore extremely large black slacks that were too big for his body. On his forehead was an eye tattooed. His hair also had the same eye shape on each strand. Even his pupils had the eye in them. He made his scarves hold Spirit in front of him.
"He he he I got you" Asura chuckled. "Anything to say for yourself, General Spirit Albarn."
"Fuck You"he shouted as he spit on him.
"Tsk Tsk that just won't do. Let's see if I can change your little attitude" Asura began to tighten the scarves around Kami.
"AUGHhhhHHHHH!"she yelled in pain.
"STOP ITTTTTT!"Spirit screamed.
"Nahh, I think I'm enjoying myself right now"Asura said with a sinister grin.
"I'LL KILL YOUUU" Spirit shouted.
"Oh really now" Asura wrapped Kami fully in his scarves. He then squeezed her till he heard a sickening crunch and her screams went quiet.
"Oops I seemed to have squeezed too hard. Well whatever it was just a despicable angel."Asura said.
"KAAAAMMIIIIIII!" Spirit shouted. Asura let go off him. Spirit just dropped to the floor like a useless doll. His eyes were empty and his body slumped. He lost everything. He couldn't go back to his daughter or that would put her life in danger. All he had left was Kami and she was now dead. He lost his will to survive. Asura lowered himself to Spirit's level.
"You never betray a demon king. Ever" he began to cackle madly as he walked away. "Arrest him. I'll deal with him later."
Dante began to comfort his family. Telling them everything would be okay and that he couldn't find them there. A loud crash emitted throughout the room. Blood began to drip on Soul's face and he looked up to find the source. He wish he hadn't. What he saw would haunt him for life. There in front of him was his father Dante with a hand going through his chest. In that hand was none other than his heart. The hand crushed the heart spraying blood over everyone. Asura smiled at them and threw their father's body across the room.
"PAPPAAA!" Soul screamed. They all backed away from the man who killed him.
"Angels everywhere. I will never understand why my demons turn to such disgusting creatures." Asura said as he cleaned his nails.
"Get behind me"Annabelle said. As quick as they could, Soul and Wes followed their mother's orders. Asura turned to her and smiled.
"Ah there you are my lost mistress. Your sisters have been so worried about you. Oh how sad they will be when I tell them I had to kill you since you disobeyed me." Asura said as he touched her jaw affectionately. Wes walked from behind his mother and kicked Asura.
"Wesley!" she shouted.
"Don't touch my mom" he said. Asura became infuriated and marched up to him.
"You damn brat"he yelled as he picked him up and threw him across the room making his back hit the edge off the table successfully breaking his spine.
"No!" Annabelle shouted as she summoned her scythe and charged Asura. She swung down on him but he dodged. Using the momentum from her swing she front flipped and landed a hit on his shoulder, slowly cutting him in half. He grabbed her staff with his free arm and tossed her across the room. Her back hit the wall, knocking the wind out of her. He wrapped his scarves around her neck and limbs.
"Really is this the best I can get from my strongest concubine. He really has softened you up. So sad to see you go." With a flick of his wrist tore the limbs off her body leaving a bloody carcass behind. His hell-hounds approached him salivating at the presence of her dead body. "You may eat them" The hounds quickly ran to the bodies of Annabelle and Dante and began to feast on them. "Now to deal with you children" he turned around expecting to see the two boys still there but they were gone. "Shit FIND THEM" he demanded his demons.
Soul was running as fast as he could with Wes on his back. He had to get as far away as possible from the mansion. "Wes, It'll be okay. I'll find some help and get you fixed up"Soul said as he continued running through the forest. "I promise"
Soul woke up from his dream. For awhile he always seemed to have that dream when he went to sleep. He could always remember it so clearly as if it happened just the day before. He got up out of his bed and stretched. He looked at the clock and it read 12:00 pm. 'Seems like I've got plenty of time for a quick shower before he starts nagging.' he thought. Beside him a cat mewed.
"Hey Blair" he said as he scratched under her chin. She began to purr. He then walked into the bathroom for a quick shower. As he stood there letting the hot water run down his body he couldn't help but think about why he was having the dreams all of a sudden. What do they mean? Is something going to happen?' he thought. He got out the shower and quickly dried off. When he got back to his room he got dressed. He wore some black jeans and a red t-shirt. Over that was a black blazer. He also wore a black head band to keep his hair out of his way. Once he was finished getting dressed he grabbed his keys and left the apartment. He decided to forgo his motorcycle and walk instead since the place he needed to go wasn't that far.
On his way he was bombarded with whispers of 'Is that him?' and 'I heard he attacked someone. Scary right?'. 'I guess I shoulda wore my beanie' he thought. Having white hair really made him stand out since everyone knew the tale of the white-haired demon. Soul sighed as another person decided to move away from him at an unnecessary distance. In order to not have to deal with the constant stares and whispers, he sped-walked all the way to his destination. When he got there he quickly unlocked the door and closed it behind his. As he caught his breath a shock of white peeked into the hallway.
"Soul is that you?" he asked. Soul moved from the door and walked to the room where the voice came from.
"Yeah it's me Wes"he answered.
"So you finally showed up. Hmm actually you're early for once" Wes said.
"Whatever. What are you doing? Soul asked as he looked down at Wes. Wes was sitting on the floor surrounded by different books. He wore a long-sleeved black shirt and blue denim jeans. He continued reading the book as he pushed up the glasses he wore.
"I'm doing a little studying" Wes replied. Soul got a better look to see what the books were about.
"Really? Talismans and witchcraft? You becoming an exorcist or something?"
"No little brother. I'm trying to see if they can help me with something else. Now stop your snooping and bring me my chair" he demanded. What Wes meant was his wheelchair. After he was thrown by Asura and saved by Soul, the doctors weren't able to fully repair his spine. This left him paralyzed from the waist down. Soul grabbed the wheelchair and brought it to Wes.
"So what you call me over here for" Soul asked. He picked up a random book and began to skim through it. 'Huh love charms' "Ah I see. You're doing a little bad in the romance department" Soul smirked. Wes looked at him as if he were the dumbest person on the planet.
"No idiot that's not what I need them for. Now the reason I called you was so that you can go to the library and get a certain book for me"he said as he snatched the book Soul was reading. Soul stuck his tongue out at him.
"Okay so what's the name of the book?"
"Here" Wes handed him a slip of paper. "I wrote the name of it on this. Don't lose it this time."
"Yea yea quit your nagging"
"Now can you leave. I'm expecting a guest any minute now" Soul raised his eyebrows at him. The doorbell rang. "Ah look they have already arrived. Could you open the door for me?" Soul walked to the door and opened it. There stood a beautiful black-haired woman. Her eyes widened when she noticed Soul standing there. She then saw Wes and walked to him.
"Wow that shocked me. You do look-alike" she said as she kissed his cheek and walked to his living room. Wes smirked at Soul who was still standing there with his mouth agape.
"As you can see, I'm having no trouble what so ever. I may not be able to feel my legs or feet but everything else is fine. If you know what I mean."
"Aww come on Bro. I did not need to know that" Soul said with a look of disgust. Wes snickered and waved him off. He then reached beside and threw something at Soul. "A beanie"Soul said. He looked at Wes questionably.
"Lay low Soul. I saw some spotter demons recently. I think they're looking for you and with your white hair you stick out like a sour thumb"
"Gotcha" Soul began to leave.
"Also no clubbing tonight. They'll probably check there first" Wes shouted after him.
"Okay I got you. Bye Wes" Soul shut the door and sighed. He put his beanie on and began to walk away, mindful of the people around him. Instead of going to the club like he planned, he decided to walk to the local bar for some drinks.
When he arrived, the smell of old wood and beer filled his nostrils. He got a seat at the bar and asked the bartender for a shot of whiskey. After a while of drinking and watching a random sports team win the championship a new customer walked in the bar. Soul being occupied with what he was doing ignored the person. The person sat at the bar and called to the bartender with a small and silvery voice that was pleasant to the ears. Soul assumed it was a woman speaking. After the woman placed and received her order, she didn't speak for a while so Soul decided she wasn't a suspicious person and continued to watch the game. He was soon interrupted when the woman spoke to him.
"I know who you are Soul" she said. Soul turned around and was met by a small and petite young woman. She had ash blonde hair and emerald-green eyes. She reminded him of someone but he just couldn't put a finger on it. Soul sighed and went back to watching the TV.
"I don't know who you are or what you want but I didn't do anything you are about to accuse me of"He said.
"What I mean is I know what happened to you and your family" Soul quickly turned around and glared at the woman. He reached his hand to his hip where he hid his guns.
"Who are you and what do you want? Depending on your answer I might not kill you" He said. The woman in turn raised her hands up in a sign of peace and surrender.
"Calm down. I'm on your side"
"How do I know you're not lying and you aren't some spotter demon?" Soul was not in the least convinced.
"If I was a spotter demon you would have been attacked by now. As you can see, nothing has happened." Soul relaxed a little.
"Well what do you want?" he asked. Still wary of her presence.
"I need your help" she put her hands in her lap and looked at him directly.
"And why should I help you?"
"Because without us working together, you will never be able to get revenge on him for killing your family" Soul's eyes widen drastically.
"How do you know all this?"
"Because the same person took my parents away from me too. And were the same" She said. She pulled both her hands out for him to see. Both hands began to glow but one was red and the other was blue. Soul eyes widened even more, if that was possible, as he looked to her and back to her hands repeatedly.
"So you're a Nephilim" he whispered.
"Yea"
Soul ran a hand through his hair and sighed. "I still don't trust you but I'll listen to whatever you need to say"
"Thanks" She reached a hand out to him. "I'm Maka Albarn" Soul remembered who she looked like now.
'You must be his beautiful wife Kami Albarn'
"Yea I'm Soul Evans. Could you be related to someone named Kami perhaps?"he asked as he shook her hand. She looked up at him in shock.
"Yes She was my mother. Have you met her before?"
"Yea a long time ago"
Woohoo 4000+ words in the first chapter. Cool right. Oh yea if you're new to me you need to know that I love cliffhangers. So I'm telling you now before you freak out and start flipping tables. Hehe. See you next time.
