Chapter 2~ Soul Resonance
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM OWN SOUL EATER! [I wish.]
" Im going to bed.." He said, walking to his room. Maka waved to him. " Goodnight.." She avoided his name, but at least she told him goodnight. Maka sighed as she unpacked her stuff. This was going to be a long night. She heard Soul shut his door. She was going to pack in the morning, so she fell on her bed. Smelling it to see if she had to wash it. It smelled of Soul. She sat up and curled into a ball. " Why is it like this?" She mumbled, laying back down. After hours of thinking, she finally fell asleep. Soul had fallen asleep the moment he hit the bed. Today was exhausting.
The next morning was full of awkward silences and confused looks. Soul had got up earlier than usual, so he could cook some food, but he found out that Maka had food all set up and she was reading a book on the couch with Blair on her lap. " Wha..." He said, looking at the food on the table. " Did you..?" He asked, getting a slight nod from the girl reading the book. He sighed and sat down, he clapped his hands together and smiled. " Itadakimasu!" He broke his chipsticks and started to eat. A smile lit up his usually pale face as he gobbled the food down. H was about to say something, but was interupted.
" Eating like a pig.. As always.." Maka sighed, closing her book and taking the empty dishes into the kitchen. She slightly turned so she could see his face, he was pouting. She chuckled slightly, but quiet enough so Soul couldnt hear it. After the dishes were washed, Maka got ready for class. Her hair was currently down, so she put it up in a ponytail. She almost put them in pigtails, but told herself not to. She sighed as she went through her dresser. She had her old spartoi uniform and her other uniform. She sighed and shook her head, picking out a medium lengthed black skirt with a red shirt, that said, ' KAMISAMA' on it. She sighed and walked out, with her bag over her shoulder.
" Evans.. You ready?" She asked, looking at the albino-haired man, who was just plopped onto the couch, his crimson eyes looking into the distance. " Ah.. Albarn.. Yeah.. I guess.." He said, coming back to reality, getting off the couch. Maka noted that today he was wearing a red headband. It confused her as to why he even wore a headband. What happened to his other one? She shrugged her shoulders and made sure to pack her book and gloves. She was going to have to wield him at some point in time, so she had to bring her gloves. She noticed that Soul was a little... Out of it today.
" Evans." Maka stated firmly, waiting for him to look at her. He slowly turned his head, and gave her a what-do-you-what look. She sighed and shook her head. " Sorry. You just seem so.. Out of it today.. Cant blame me for being worried." She mumbled, hopping on the bike after him. He revved the engine and took off towards the DWMA. It was about five minutes before they arrived, and those five minutes were agonizing for the pair. Soul couldnt help but be concious about her small arms wrapped around him and she couldnt keep her mind off how nice he smelled.
Soul locked his bike up and took the keys inside with him. He walked next to Maka, because she wasnt exactly sure where the classroom was yet. The school was remodeled, so the rooms had been moved around. As the pair walked into the school, all eyes turned towards them. In the eyes of the students, the two walked gracefully down the hall, their eyes filled with determination. The all gawked at how well the pair matched. Soul ignored all the stares, but he could tell Maka was uncomfortable. He sighed as he quickened their pace. They reached the classroom in less than five minutes.
Soul took a breath and sat down at his desk. The first thing he spotted when he sat down, was the desk not that far away from his. It had a nametag on it. ' Maka Albarn' was what it said. He sighed as he pulled out the schedule for the day. They were going to have to demonstrate to the class today on how to do a soul resonance. Soul sighed as he tossed the papers onto Maka's desk. The bell was to ring in ten minutes or so. He sighed once again as he heard an annoying voice. " YAHOOOO I AM THE UNDEFEATABLE BLACK STAR! AND I AM HERE TO SEE MAKA ALBARN!" He screeched in his annoying voice.
Soul looked over at Maka, who was now looking at him, terror filling those beautiful emerald green eyes he loved so much. He chuckled and shrugged his shoulders. He got up and walked out in the hall, picking at his ear. " Geez. Black Star you needa lighten up." He said, smirking his toothy grin over at the blue-haired man. The man swiftly turned and pushed past him. Once the blunette had gotten into the room, he eyed Maka, who eyed him back. " Why hello Black St-!" She was cut off by someone tackling her with a hug. " I knew you would come back!" Was heard through sniffles.
Maka smiled and patted the unidentified persons back. " Tsubaki.. Its nice to see you again." She smiled, hugging the girl. The girl pulled back, her eyes filled with tears. Black Star walked over, giving Tsubaki a thumbs up. " See? I told you she was back!" He said, staring at the woman. The woman, Tsubaki Nakatsukasa, was a pure Japanese woman with long, raven colored hair, which was currently hanging down to her rear end. Her dark, gentle eyes stared at the smaller girl. Tsubaki was taller than Maka, but not by much. But her figure was different. She was fully-developed in every area.
The outfit she wore included a sand colored shirt, much like the one she wore when she herself was a student. It had a bright golden star on her left breast. But she wore a long sand colored skirt, it covered her fully and she wore silver boots, than shone in the sun. She was Black Stars weapon, not a death scythe, but a very useful and strong weapon. She had a gentle and caring nature, so she was worried for Maka. Soul, who stood in the background, noticed the bell was going to ring soon. " Hey. Nakatsuka-" Soul was cut off by the short blunette, whom was now glaring at him.
" We are leaving." He said, dragging the crying woman from the room. Both Soul and Maka looked at each other, confusion lurking in their eyes. The bell rang just moments later. Soul sat at his desk as students crowded in the classroom. While Soul took attendance, Maka went over the day plans. A small 'tch' noise was heard from her, but Soul didnt question it. He sighed as he walked to the front of the class, followed by his assistant, Maka. He sighed and took a breath. " Today we will be teaching Soul Resonance. I havnt been able to teach you because I didnt have a weapon, and im not as smart as Professor Stein, but I have Maka, and we will show you today." He mumbled, placing his hand on the womans ashe colored hair.
The class groaned as they knew this meant walking to the forest behind the school. Soul watched his class and chuckled. " We are behind the other classes because we havnt gone over this yet. We have only gone over basic attacks, since I am a weapon and I am limited. Feel lucky your in our class." Maka felt a blush coming as he said that, ' He already includes me in the class... Though yesterday was my first day..' Happiness filled her eyes as she eyed each one of her new students. Soul continued, " If you were in Mr. Stars and Miss Nakatsukasa, you would all be failing. If your were in Mr. Kid and the Thompson sisters class, you would all have OCD and have a nosebleed everytime something didnt match up." He said, eyeing as his students shuddered at the thought.
Maka smiled and nodded. " Feel lucky.." She mumbled, the butterflies just not leaving her stomach. She sighed as Soul instructed the class. But Maka noticed one pair, they seemed fidgety and restless. " First, everyone hold your weapons." He said, watching as students transformed and were now being held by their meisters. " Now, watch a learn. Soul resonance is where a meister and weapon pair is able to access new powers and skills. It is very important. You have to be able to cooperate with your meister or weapon. You need to be able to connect your souls. As Miss Albarn here is able to use Soul Perception, which is analyzing the soul of one person."
Soul stated, then turning into a weapon. Maka held him firm as she was surprised that her hands didnt burn. She could feel his feelings of regret for what happened that fateful day. " Alright!: Maka stated firmly. " You have to concentrate carefully, then as you feel your souls conjoin, you yell, lets go! soul resonance. It just happens naturally, the words at least. You dont have to worry about saying them any certain way. Watch now and carefully analyze the process." Maka felt so proud of herself, she made an impression on her class. They all watched her with awe.
Then, the next moment was incredible. Maka felt power surging through her as her soul joined with Souls. Naturally, they both yelled, " LETS GO! SOUL RESONANCE!" The two erupted in a blue light as the class watched in awe. Maka came out, swinging Soul gracefully, but with skill. " The legendary Kishin-hunter!" She yelled as she felt the power inside of her. It had been such a long time since she did this. The happiness on her face showed within her soul. Soul couldnt believe it. " We did it.. Miss Albarn we did it!" He yelled with joy. Maka could feel Soul's soul connected with hers.
When Soul turned back into a human, he was shocked at the stares by the class. " THAT WAS AMAZING!"
" HOW DID YOU DO THAT?"
" I hope I can do that with my partner!"
Many different people were yelling different things. Soul felt accomplished. Its your turn now. Everyone get into a line and Miss Albarn and I will help you through if you have any problems." Soul said reassuringly. Moments later, everyone was lined up. Soul and Maka watched as the first pair came up. Maka took note that it was the same pair she had noticed earlier. She walked up and stood in front of them. " Theres no need to be nervous. Either of you. Everyone is nervous, and if you mess up, nothings wrong with it." She smiled cheerfully at the girl. " Everyone is going to mess up today. So- I mean Mr. Evans and I had trouble as well, and since we were joined with Mr. Star and Miss Nakatsukasa and Mr. Kid and the Thompson sisters, we were all together. You and your classmates have nothing to worry about." She said, smiling at the pair once more.
The girl wielding the weapon nodded, the look in her eyes turned from fear, to determination. She could tell by the soul of the weapon, that they understood as well, but wasnt making an effort to try. A smile appeared on Souls face as she reassured the two. Then both Soul and Maka took a few steps back. Soul started off, " First, both of you need to close your eyes and concentrate on conjoining souls." Then Maka took over. " Once you feel the sparks between your souls, you'll know that you've conjoined. Then, naturally, yell lets go soul resonance." She said, watching the two and they concentrated. The girl opened her eyes, then her mouth, and yelled, " Lets go! Soul Resonance!" The girl yelled, but nothing happened. Maka watched their souls as they just sparked and rejected each other.
Maka walked up and took the weapon from her hands, her soul wavelength adjusting to his. She felt the confusion through the weapon. She smiled calmly and held the weapon. " Calm down. Dont reject your meister, just calm down and focus on the resonance. Her soul wavelenght soothed his. Maka felt the weapon respond. She smiled, this was a smile that show she accomplished what she had wanted. She handed the weapon back to the young girl. " Take care of your weapon. You never know what could happen." She whispered, her thoughts going back to the incident with Crona.
The next hour was spent helping the class with their soul resonance. Soul helped out the weapons as Maka did the meisters. It was about ten minutes before the bell, so they all headed back. Maka and Soul lead the class, and once they got back to the classroom, they had a hearty discussion on what they learned that day. Once the bell rang, the kids ran out and Soul sighed heavily, causing the meister to look over at him. " Whats with the heavy sigh?" She asked, kinda concerned. The weapon shook his head. " I just wasnt expecting things to go so well. I really didnt think we would be able to do the soul resonance. I would shocked." He admitted. Maka nodded, and sighed. " Your right. I didnt show it.. But that one resonance took a lot out of me.." She said, looking over at the man.
The pair was worn out and tired, so they headed home for the day. But what they didnt know was that they were being watched.. By a pair of sisters. " Shes back." One whispered, and the other laughed and clapped her hands. " Yaaay! Shes back! Shes back! Big sis! Shes back!" The younger sibling clapped happily and the obviously older one sighed. " But she hasnt come to talk with us at all! Even Tsubaki had a chance to talk to her. We are getting revenge tomorrow." The older one chuckled deviously. " Tomorrow will be hell for those two." The younger one started laughing again and clapped her hands multiple times. " Yaaay! Revenge! Yaaaay!"
" But you cant tell Kid about it okay?"
The older one said, coming out of the shadows, her long light brown hair shining in the light as the other, the younger one came out as well. Her short blonde hair also shone, and her blue eyes were tinted with... Was that craziness?
HELLO! IM SO HAPPY! I finished this one as fast as I could! Thanks to the reviewers! I felt determined and decided to type until I finished. xD Im pretty sure the two at the end are obvious~ But what are they planning on doing for revenge? o.o Watch out Soul and Maka!
