Chapter 7 - Deadly Mixes and Good Intentions.

(Remember that Maka's voice is deep and demonic.)

"Go home, Soul." Maka's voice was stern, unforgiving. "You don't want to die today."

"HAH! YOU think you can kill ME?!" Soul fell over, laughing hysterically.

"I guess you do want to die today." Maka turned to face kid, her black eyes meeting his golden ones. "Can you handle a scythe?"

Before he could answer, Soul was on her. He pounded her into the cement, not knowing or caring where he got this immense strength. She was beaten and bloody, and Soul felt triumphant and victorious. He turned to walk up the steps where the Elite Meister class was standing. Lord Death had gone to collect the dead and protect the living.

Kid looked down at Maka. He was about to fall over and cry. She looked dead. Maka, who was face down in the cement, put one hand on the cement and propped herself up. She used her other hand to pick up a piece of the sidewalk and chuck it at Soul who was halfway up the stairs. Because of the black blood, her wounds healed and she was standing and ready to fight.

"I told you that your fight was with me." Maka moved quickly and ran up the stairs. She grabbed Soul by the hair and threw him down the stairs. The stairs broke underneath the force that Maka used. She jumped down and shoved her foot in his stomach, sending him deep in the cement. She stepped out and stared down at Soul.

"Don't act dead. Get up!" She screamed. Soul crawled out of the small crater she made and took a swing at her. She dodged it and punched him in the face. "How are you not dead by now?"

"I don't have the power you have with the black blood, but because I was exposed to it for a small amount of time, I have the healing ability." Soul hid his fear that the blood would give out on him. He only had a limited amount to use, where as Maka was fused with it. He knew he had a time frame to beat her, but somewhere deep he knew he couldn't. Still, his pride wouldn't let him admit it.

"Bastard." Maka muttered. She ran after him, punching and kicking him in places no one wants to be kicked.

He grabbed her wrist and pulled her up to him. She kicked him in the stomach which made him let go. She turned to Kid and reached for him. Kid ran down the stairs and grabbed her hand before Soul could recover. Maka transformed into a black scythe with a green and black checkered handle. Kid grabbed her and created a strong bond with her, stronger than anyone had ever seen.

"Ready?" Maka's face appeared in the blade of the scythe.

Kid looked up at Soul and narrowed his eyes. "Fuck yeah."

Kid ran towards Soul, carefully and skillfully spinning Maka in his hands. He swung at Soul, making him jump backwards. Kid kept swinging.

"Kid, stop!" Maka said. She looked at Soul who looked confused. "Soul Resonance."

They resonated and instead of having a giant blade like Soul, her blade enlarged, but it was double ended. Kid twisted her and threw her like a boomerang. Soul ducked in time to dodge it, but her sharp blades sliced the ends of his hair off. She transformed back and kept her arm as a scythe. She shoved it into Soul's stomach and grabbed his shirt and pulled him close. Kid stood there, eyes widening.

"You feel that pain?" Maka's eyes narrowed. "That is the pain you caused me!"

She twisted the blade in his stomach, and watched his blood pour. She pushed him away and turned around to walk back to Kid. Soul changed his arms into scythe blades and charged at Maka. She turned around in time and put her blade in him again. Blood spilled from his mouth, his eyes turning red as well. She changed her fingers into mini scythes and stuck them in his head. She watched as his eyes rolled back and started bleeding. She took her blades out of him and held him to her. She took notice that he wasn't healing as well. He'd live, but not the way he used to. She stabbed his eye with her index finger scythe and gouged his eye out.

The madness was taking over her, she started laughing hysterically and ran around with blades sticking out of her back like wings. She charged at Kid. Kid grabbed her shoulders and kept her at bay. Maka looked into his eyes, seeing them filled with worry, and suddenly returned to normal, falling to her knees. Kid knelt down with her while Liz and Tsubaki ran down to help.

"That fight wasn't for any of us, even Kid." Blackstar said sternly to Patty.

"He shouldn't be fighting someone else's battles." Patty replied, the first time she's ever sounded wise.

"Maka, baby?" Kid asked. She opened her eyes and looked at Kid. He hugged her tight, causing her head to turn and press her ear against his chest. She looked down at her hands and clothes. She looked around and saw Soul lying on the ground with one eye missing and all the students who were killed. She saw the sidewalk and parking lot destroyed, the cobblestone pathways splattered with blood. She looked back down at her hands and it clicked. She screamed bloody murder and pushed away everyone. She backed into a corner, screaming as if she was going to die, and held her head.

"Maka! It's okay!" Kid tried to confront her, but she just kept screaming.

"GET AWAY!" Maka screamed. Kid still approached her.

"I love you." Kid spoke loudly. "Maka Albarn, I love you."

Maka processed that thought, and in a few moments she stopped and collapsed. Kid ran up to her and held her close, rocking her back and forth while she cried gently.

"I... I hurt someon-" Maka was cut off when she saw Soul getting up from the spot where he was passed out. He ran towards them with a fury Maka has never seen. Before Soul could swing at Maka, Kid covered her with his body. Maka tried to push him away, but failed. She heard a squishing sound and looked up. Blood was dripping from his mouth, and he collapsed on her.

In a second, Maka's eyes return to their black state and her voice is back to the demonic way it was. It happened quickly, but to Maka it felt like slow motion. Liz, Patty, Blackstar, Tsubaki and Crona came rushing down to Kid. Maka laid him down carefully and ran to Soul. She dealt a kick to his face, letting her right foot set on his shoulder. She brought up her left foot and closed his neck in her legs, crossing them behind his neck. She did a half sit up and thrust her body backwards, placing her hands on the asphalt and using the momentum to pick Soul up and slam him on the floor. She quickly got up and jumped in the air, using all her strength. She hardened the black blood so she'd be heavier. Her body came down quick, but not quick enough. She drove her elbow into the asphalt and Soul was behind her. He stabbed her in the stomach and she fell over. She saw the blood pour out and realized something that went over her head earlier - She no longer has any human blood in her body.

Taking hold of the power, she hardened her wound and turned around to swing at Soul. She grabbed his leg and yanked him towards her. She got on top of him and with a fist of hardened blood, she punched him. Several teeth made their way out of Soul's mouth and met their new home on the asphalt. She pounded him into unconsciousness.

The rest of her friends stared at her from across the lot. She got up and grabbed Soul by the collar. She walked off, dragging him. When she turned the corner, her friends finally spoke.

"What.. the fuck was that!?" Liz asked, turning around to face them in disbelief.

"Did anyone else feel frozen?" Blackstar asked.

"Where's she going?" Tsubaki chimed in.

"We have to follow her!" Kid stated.

"Uh, no. Not you, Kid. We know you love her, we do too. But you can't help her when you're wounded. You're staying here with Nygus and Marie." Liz cradled Kid in her arms.

"No matter what happens.. I'm still the god." Blackstar muttered walking up the steps to get Nygus.

"Tsubaki, stay here with Blackstar and Kid until he's in Nygus' care. Patty and I will follow Maka." Tsubaki nodded and Liz ran off with Patty.

"What happened?!" Nygus and Marie ran down the stairs with a stretcher and Blackstar running towards Tsubaki. He ran towards the direction Maka went, holding out his hand for Tsubaki. She changed into sickles and transported to his hands with a flash of light. Blackstar ran and caught up with Liz and Patty who were hiding behind a dumpster of an abandoned mental hospital.

"Hey, what's going on?" Blackstar whispered.

"Stay silent, she went into the back entrance." Liz put her fingers to her lips. Tsubaki changed back to human form and stood behind Blackstar. They crept to the back door one by one. Slowly, they entered the hospital. They saw blood on the walls, writing and graffiti. There were knives underneath beds, ropes hanging from the ceiling with chairs underneath, some were tied and some weren't. There was cut hair on some of the nightstands. Blackstar grimaced.

"A god cannot be in a place like this..." Tsubaki hit him on the arm.

"We need to make sure Maka's okay. If she goes bat-shit insane, we're all screwed." Liz stated. They turned the corner and was met with darkness. Holding each other close, they walked forward until they could no longer see the light behind them.

"Please, let me go Maka." Soul pleaded. She had attached him to the torture chair with leather straps on his hands, feet, torso, and head. There was no escape. The room around them was all cement with sound blocking padding so no one could hear the horrors that occurred. The doors were plain metal with several locks to make sure no one interrupted. There were small tables, like the ones in an operating room, with sharp knives and things to cut and stab with. Maka looked around and grabbed a scalpel. She walked over to Soul and placed the scalpel on his left cheek.

"You can have a scar to mirror mine... Or maybe you can have a worse one." Maka moved the scar way down south. Soul struggled and struggled with no prevail. She lifted her hand and brought it down quick. Soul screamed out and pleaded with Maka.

"Please! Please stop!" He looked at her with eyes full of tears.

"You think that saying 'please' will make me stop?" Maka asked. Soul realized that those were his words when he abused her. Maka looked at him with her black eyes and opened her mouth.

"Why did you do that to me?!" She screamed, her demonic voice shaking the doors and tables. "ANSWER ME."

"Because I was scared!" Soul answered, staring at the blade in his pants that Maka's hand was no longer wrapped around.

"Scared of what?!" Maka grabbed a hammer and nails. She placed a nail gently on his left forearm.

"That you'd leave." Soul hoped it'd be enough to stop her. She held the hammer high.

"This is for everything you've done to me." Maka brought the hammer down again and again until the head of the nail met his skin. She placed another one right next to the first one. She grabbed the hammer and held it above her head. A demonic smile took over her as she hammered the nail into his arm. She saw the blood dripping from the bottom. She grabbed both nails and pulled them out.

"Go rot in Hell." Maka said. She undid one arm, knowing she doesn't want him dead yet. On her way out, she was met with her friends. Her eyes had returned to normal and her voice was back to the sweet woman she was. She kept walking, even though the black blood had taken the energy out of her.

"Hey guys!" Maka smiled.

"Hey Maka!" Everyone ran to her and held her close. "Kid's at the DWMA. Let's hurry, he's worried about you."

They ran to the DWMA and Maka burst through the doors. She bolted down the hallway and into nurse Nygus' room. She ran to Kid and put a hand on his. He groaned slightly and turned his head to face her. He looked into her eyes and smiled.

"Hey." Maka said softly, placing light kisses on his forehead and cheek.

"Hey, you." He smiled back at her. "Nygus said I can be released when you came back."

"Then let's go home." Maka smiled. Nygus said to make sure he didn't move around a lot, but that wasn't an issue. They had already graduated, and there were no upcoming missions for them.

Maka and Kid ended up going home alone. Liz and Patty went out to celebrate with Blackstar and Tsubaki. Maka pulled into the driveway and carefully helped Kid into the house and to the bedroom. He laid down on his back as Maka curled up against him on the side that wasn't hurt.

"It's almost dinner time..." Maka looked at her clothes and body, covered in blood.

"Wanna order in?" Kid asked while wrapping his arm around her.

"Sounds great!" Maka jumped up and ran to her dresser. She quickly threw her bloody clothes in the hamper and ran into the bathroom to take a bath. Kid carefully got off the bed and followed her.

The bathroom had white walls with Lord Death's symbol on the back wall. Half of the bathroom was a gigantic tub which also served as a jacuzzi. There were sinks on either side of the bathroom. There were also two toilets on the side close to the door, with curtains for privacy. He walked over to the tub and took off his pants so he was in his boxers and sat on the edge of the tub, letting his legs soak in the water. Maka added more bubble so he wouldn't see anything.

"Hey, get over here." Kid ordered. He grabbed the bottle of shampoo and lathered it in his hands. Maka sat between his legs as he lathered her hair and massaged her head.

"You have a lot of hair, woman."

"So I've been told." Maka looked down at the bubbles. "Kid?"

"Yes, Maka?"

"I love you too." She looked at him, soapy hair and all. She leaned up as far as she could without bringing her shoulders out of the water and kissed him. Kid leaned over her and deepened the kiss. She brought her hands out of the water and fisted his hair. She smiled deviously and pulled him into the tub. He swam around in the bubbles, the warm water making his wound feel better. Maka slid under the water to rinse her hair. Kid got out of the tub and walked out to change into his pajamas. He turned around half way with a serious face and grabbed his head. The paced back and forth before he faced Maka.

"I'm not going to disrespect you like that, Maka. I never will. I'm going to wait the proper amount of time to ask you to marry me, and only then will I ever do anything like that with you." Kid walked out of the bathroom and changed into black pajama pants and a black tank top, leaving Maka wide eyed.

Maka stepped out of the bath and wrapped a towel around herself. She dried herself on and put on red pajama pants and a Pierce the Veil logo tank top. She walked out to find Kid on the bed, turned on his side. She walked out of the bedroom and down the stairs. Kid turned his head and watched her leave.

"Hi, I'd like to order a large pepperoni pizza." Maka spoke into the phone.

"Would you like any drinks?"

"No. Just the pizza."

"Okay. That'll be $13.75. Delivery in 30."

"Thanks." Maka hung up the phone.

"Hey, you okay?" Kyle came down the stairs to face her. She sniffled and hid her face.

"I'm okay, I promise." Maka started walking away but Kyle got her arm and yanked her back into a hug.

"Who hurt you?" Kyle asked, kissing her hair.

"He didn't mean to. I wasn't asking him to do anything... I was just playing with him... I just... It hurts when he pushes me away..." Maka told him what happened, and from the balcony, Kid was listening. He walked into their room and opened the bottom drawer. In the drawer was a small, black velvet box. He opened it and stared at the ring.

"One day..." He muttered.

Soul hobbled out of the mental hospital. He clutched his arm and walked down the street to a pay-phone. He pulled some coins out of his pocket and shoved them in the slot. With bloody hands, he picked up the phone and punched in the number.

"Hello?" The voice on the end was deep and gravely.

"Wes?"

"Little brother! What's up?"

"I need your help."

"Anything."

"She needs to die."

"I'll be there."

They both hung up the phone and Soul made his way to the abandoned warehouse which was the emergency plan. He smiled as he wrapped up his wounds.

"Maka?" Kid asked, approaching Kyle and Maka. Kyle stood up and blocked his path.

"It's okay, Kyle." Maka was still holding his hand.

"Angel, I have to get to work. I got a new job at the club down the street as a bartender. I love you." Kyle leaned down and kissed her on the forehead.

"Love you too. Bye!" Maka waved as he left. When the doors shut, Kid sat down next to her and put his hand on hers.

"I'm sorry I was distant." He said.

"It's okay." Maka smiled at him.

"I don't want to be like Soul. I want to marry you the right way, I want to have a child with you the right way. Maka, I want my life to be with you. Every last bit of it."

"Kid..."

"I know that right now it's too soon to propose to you, but I promise you, when the day comes, the right day, I'll propose. But for now, you're going to have to settle for 'I love you.'"

"I love you too, Kid."

He kissed her head and when the pizza came, they went into the piano room. They fooled around and ended up making out on the piano. Maka fell asleep on the couch while Kid was cleaning up the pizza. He carried her upstairs bridal style and placed her on the bed carefully. He climbed in on the other side and watched her curl up against him like a cat. He put his arms around her and started to fall asleep, the image of the ring on her finger.
