DISCLAIMER: I do not own Soul Eater!

Chapter 6

A Lost Soul

Soul sped on down the bridge, not hearing me.

Suddenly, a little girl ran out in front of us. She screamed as she saw us coming towards her, panick written all over her face.

I tried to yell at her to get out of the way, but the words hitched in my throat.

"Shit!" I heard Soul say as he swirved the bike. The child ran back over to the pavement and down the bridge as we hit a speed bump. The bike jumped and flipped, throwing us in the air with it. I screamed as we twirled around, grabbing onto Soul's back. The bike slipped out of Soul's grip and crashed into a steel pole that held up the bridge.

I was torn from his back as the fabric of his jacket fell from my hold. Soul slammed into a beam as I was thrown over the safety fence on the edge of the bridge.

I screamed as I fell to my death, falling into the dark canyon. The world flew past me as dust particles made their way through my system; making me cough.

"Soul!" I choked out before my body came into impact with the side of the black canyon. I let out a piercing scream as my flesh was torn. My arm burnt like crazy as I was dragged down the rock by a sudden gust of wind.

"Maka!" A male voice called from above.

Spots of blood filled my vision as it oozed from the cut slicing down my arm. Kid flew down to me on his air board, throwing his arms out to me. I stretched my arms; reaching towards him. He grabbed my hand before I fell into a ridge on the side of the canyon, hooking his arm around my waist.

He pulled me against him and carried me away from the canyon.

"Ow," a tear slid down my cheek. My arm was covered with black dust while thick red blood continued to seep out of the cut.

"Don't worry, I'll get you both to the hospital," he patted my head.

He flew up to the bridge, just hovering above the ground.

"Soul!" I jumped out of Kid's arms and ran over to him.

I shook his body but there was no movement. He must be unconscious. I checked him over and found that there was no blood.

"Kid, call an ambulance, quick!" I told the shinigami.

"Already on their way," he put his phone back into his pocket.

The sound of sirens came from behind as an ambulance pulled up. Nygus and Sid hopped out the vehicle and brought a stretcher over.

Sid picked up Soul before placing him on the stretcher.

"Are you ok Maka?" Nygus bent down beside me.

"It's only a cut," I replied, looking over to Soul.

Nygus saw my concern and commanded, "Take him into the ambulance, Sid!"

Sid pushed him into the ambulance before hopping into the drivers seat.

Nygus tore off the bandage around her hand and wrapped it over my cut.

"Thanks," I said as she helped me to my feet and into the back of the ambulance.

"I'll pick you both up when you've been checked out," Kid said before closing the back doors.

"There you go," Nygus finished cleaning my cut before tying a clean bandage around my arm.

"Is Soul ok?"

"He's fine," she replied.

We were in one of the cubicles where a pale green curtain stretched all around us. A hand slipped through and pulled it open.

"Soul," I said as he strolled in; showing off a goofy grin.

"Are you ok now?"

"I'm fine. Just a bit of bruising, nothing serious." He replied. "What about you?"

"It's just a cut." I stated.

"I'm going to prescribe you some antibiotics to help with the pain, so take only one a day until the pain disappears." Nygus wrote something down on a piece of paper.

"Soul, can you go and give this to Sid please?" She handed him the piece of paper.

"Sure, see you in a bit Maka." He said before walking through the curtain.

"Soul."

I ignored her as I stood outside Sid's office. I knocked on the door and waited for him to answer.

"Don't ignore me Soul, you know what will happen if you do." She sneered.

Thats right, the snake. Damn!

"What do you want now?" I growled.

"Come in!" Sid's voice came from the other side of the wooden door.

I pushed it open and handed the zombie the slip of paper. He scanned over it quickly before digging around in his draw.

"Here you go, Soul." Sid handed me a clear blue tub filled with tablets.

"Thanks," I said; closing the door behind me.

"Here is the second part of my plan."

"What do I have to do?" I sighed, walking around the corner and sitting down on an empty bench.

Doctors and nurses rushed by, hurrying to their patients.

"Unscrew the lid and keep your hand hovered above the pills." She commanded.

I did as she said, unscrewing the lid and leaving my hand hovered over the tablets. My hand started to tingle.

"What the-" My hand turned black. A black liquid trickled from my fingers onto the pills, being soaked up. The once white pills were now pure black as I put the lid back on.

"I have put black blood into her tablets, which will let me gain control over her; soon." Medusa explained.

"Is it time to go back?" I asked the witch.

"Yes."

"He's taking a long time," Nygus grumbled, tapping her fingers impatiently.

"It is quite busy today," I peered through the open curtain at the mass of people running around.

"I'm back," Soul walked through the curtain. "Here you go."

Nygus inspected the tub of pills, looking very worried.

"What's wrong?" I asked the anxious mummy.

"Why are the pills black? Their supposed to be white." She aimed her question at the weapon.

"Sid said that they were the last tub. He said that when theres only one tub of pills left, they are a differant colour. It helps to tell him he needs to restock." Soul replied with a smirk.

"Hm, fine." She handed me the tub.

I grabbed my bag that I had taken to Kid's sleepover and unzipped the front. I put the tub into one of the side pockets before zipping it back up.

"Your free to go Maka. You too Soul," she eyed him.

"Great, lets go Maka." He tugged on my wrist.

"Thanks for your help Nygus. Thank Sid for me too." I told the lady in bandages.

"I will."

After we exited the building, a sleek black limosine was parked right in front of us on the curb.

"Maka, Soul, your ok." Kid climbed out the luxorious car.

"Kid, is this yours!" Soul exclaimed.

"Yes, but I hardly ever take it out..." Kid said. "Hop in, I'll take you home."

"Really? Thanks Kid," I climbed into the vehicle after Soul before closing the door.

Kid hopped into the passenger seat before saying, "Apartement 3 in Death Way please, driver."

"Yes sir!" The man behind the wheel replied in a gruff voice before pulling off.

Once we were home, I made dinner which Soul happily gobbled up. After I cleaned up our plates and cups; I went to have a shower before returning to find Soul on the sofa.

Maka went to have a shower while I slouched down on the coach.

"Soul, you have proved your worth to me; so I shall now make you mine all together!" Medusa laughed in my mind.

"What you on about witch?"

"If I have you under my control, then I can accomplish anything! There is black blood running through your veins. If I awaken it, then you will be under my total control!"

I grabbed my round box of 'special' pills and swallowed one with a sip of water.

"Soul! Stop taking those pills, their ruining the connection I have with your mind!" Medusa groaned.

My body suddenly froze. Whats happening?

"I have now awakened the black blood inside of you. You will loose all of your memories while under my control. Goodbye 'old' Soul."

My body felt heavy, sinking into the sofa. My head slumped to the side as darkness shrouded my vision.

What's happening? Where am I? I am..where?

No...is it always this dark? Who am I...?

"Welcome 'new' Soul." An evil voice cackled inside my head.

"Soul?" A female voice said.

I managed to open my eyes to find a girl looking down on me, her pigtails hanging loose.

Who is she?
