I woke up on the kitchen floor with not only a huge headache but alone. Slowly I regained copiousness feeling an odd stiffness to my face. My gaze drifted around the easily accessed rooms. Maka's make shift room made out of curtains had been knocked down last night I remembered pleasantly. However there was something that boggled my mine. Where's Maka? Hiding? There weren't very many places to hide and certainly none that where small enough for Maka despite how petite she was. I lifted my body from the ground finding that my muscles didn't quite want to move yet. Still, no matter how much they complained and resisted I finally got to my feet. As I took the first step my leg collapsed. Before I can hit the ground my arms instinctively reach out and stop me from falling. My leg must be asleep. Once again I scan the apartment in case I missed where Maka could have shifted from my sight. There wasn't a trace that she was ever there. The curtains she used for walls were folded neatly back in there place. The food she had bought was gone and the dishes she used were washed and replaced back in there proper place. My mind grew even more confused as to where she went. Though my confusion was clear it was also very clear that she had cleared out of the apartment. As my mind came to realize this is also remembered that there is a psychopath killer out there. It was about time I swallowed my pride and asked someone if they'd seen her. Was she even real at all? From what I found in the apartment… could I have imagined someone like that?
I found myself standing in front of an apartment 3 doors down from Maka's apartment. I rang the doorbell and impatiently waited for someone to answer. The door slowly creaked open but when the time came where I could see who answered it caught me a little off guard. In front of me stood a purple haired, well-formed girl with not much clothes on (A: What else is there to say about her?)
"Hey I'm Soul from down the hall have yo-"
"Blair" She growled seductively. I tried to look away from her but it seemed impossible she was so… bare.
"Mmm, hi Blair. Have you seen a short brunet? Kind of-"
"I haven't seen anyone but you." Once again she interrupted me and once again I began to fear that maybe Maka was all in my head.
"Oh…" I felt a little disappointed but I wouldn't give up on her reality yet. "Sorry for wasting your time."
"Do you want to come inside? You got some stuff on your face I could get for you." She purred motioning to my forehead. I lifted my arms to wipe it off. I looked like dried blood. I wonder where that came from…
"No thank you." I sighed uncomfortably starting to walk away.
"Ugh fine." She hissed. "I did see someone who looked suspicious if that's what you're looking for." I paused and turned back around toward her.
"Who?"
"A few days ago a funny looking guy came around. He wore all black and had funny half strips on his head but I didn't get a good look at his face. He didn't look nice thats for sure." She looked to the side remembering. My head clicked. That's must be Kid, Maka's cousin. So If he's real she must be too. I mentally smiled. I looked down and began to walk out giving a thank you on the way out. She whined as I left but I had to figure this out. Maybe I was just overthinking it. Maybe she had to use the bathroom and ours is out of order or something so she used the public one down stairs. I slipped back into the apartment, half expecting her to be mad because I didn't let her know where I went even though she did it too. However when I slinked in I found it in exactly the same condition I left the place. I sighed and sauntered over to the window, glancing down below. There wasn't much to this view. Mostly it was just the back streets and alleys that I got to see. It was then when it caught my attention. There was some sort of shiny substance that looked to rough to be water and too smooth to be rocks. I had nothing better to do, why not investigate.
When I climbed down the long stairs of the apartment to the alleyways I saw the shiny substance was indeed something unusual. The substance was little shards of burnt metal and a slight amount of melted plastic. I pulled a plastic bag out of my back pocket I used yesterday for lunch and gathered the substance into it, carefully examining it at my own height. Carefully I placed it in my coat pocket ready to examine it later. Then it hit me. Kid was Maka's cousin. Maybe they were just playing a joke. Maka didn't like to be called Lucy Ambers and she wasn't at the age of the partner I thought I was going to get. Maybe the real Lucy Ambers was somewhere else… There was only one place to confirm this. The place I met her. The airport.
Maka
It felt nice to be home again. My own bed, my own room, familiar halls and shadowy figures. I felt normal again. I was with my own kind now. As I marched down the hall ways everything that could move out of my way. I was the big man on campus just like before. So much more reliving than the drama I went through with that pathetic mongrel Soul. I hadn't even realized how weak I had let myself become. Now that I was back I had only one desire again, and Soul barley had anything to do with it. All my heart ached for was to do as my master commanded. As of now the master had no orders for me. I suppose he was preparing to use the information I gave him. In what way I don't know and I don't care. So I'm about due to see my little prisoners of mine…
I clicked down the steps a bounce to my step. It's been a while since I've been able to torture anyone let alone kill them. It's safe to I was looking forward to hearing their screams. As I reached the bottom it wasn't hard to spot the two prisoners. The blue haired one sat head down and chained to the wall. I couldn't even tell if he was alive. The other was sleeping by his side. She looked peaceful, like Soul had when he slept. The sight made me nauseous. I opened their cage, quietly stepping in as to not awake them until I attack. Quickly I stomped over to the long haired girl names Tsubaki and letting my leg fly into her ribs. She jerked awake, howling in pain. This woke the blue haired one named Black*Star.
"Don't hurt her again!" He launched toward me though the chains stopped his attack. I'm in no mood for a fair fight.
"Shut up." I replied annoyed, kicking him in the face and sending him flying back to the wall. Tsubaki gasped worried for her companion. I scowled at her weakness, stretching my fingers around her neck. Of course the boy wouldn't stand for it and he talked me to the ground since he could barely reach me. I growled as I stumbled back and recoiled with a puch to his face, making him cough up blood on the ground. Tsubaki screamed. A sudden anger filled me. Screaming for the one you love? It's pathetic. Why don't you get up and do something. I took a knife from the outside torture tables and charged at her. Black*Star was still on the ground but I felt the resentment in his eyes; not only for the fact that I hit him, but that I was now out of his reach as he watched. I took the knife to Tsubaki's weak frail body. She must not have been fed in days. I held the blade to her neck hearing Black*Stars constant annoying voice by the side. Suddenly I heard a voice I didn't quite expect to.
"Maka. What are you doing?"
I whipped around to see if It was really true. As I looked half of me jumped for joy and half of me looked in horror. Soul?
Soul
I arrived at the private room at the airport that I first met Maka. It was completely empty now. No one was arriving, no one leaving. Just me. I walked up to where she stood when she saw me. There didn't seem to be anything unusual. I skimmed around the room for any sign of disturbance. Anything that might be out of place. The perimeter was clean. So was the center of the room. There wasn't anything out of the ordinary for sure. I sighed and started back towards the entrance of the airport when it caught my eye. There was a shifted door right in the private rooms exit way. I walked over to it, curious as to why it looked so unusual. I placed my hand on I and I could feel why I thought it so unusual. The door was bulging, rounded by pressure. Slowly I opened it a stench filling my nose. Horror filled my eyes as I found what was inside. It was a woman's body. Her head was clean off and her body completely cold and decaying. It was overwhelming. I plugged my nose, searching around her. On the ground in a pile was what looked like the same thing I found back at the apartment. Burnt metal and melted plastic. I took out the sample from my pocket and compared the two, finding little to no differences. Suddenly I smelt smoke besides the decaying flesh. I snapped around to find the source of it. Behind me I saw the man with silver hair smoking a cigarette. Stein.
"Interesting isn't it? The resemblance. Finding two of the same odd substances in one day." He spoke and I only listened. "I can tell you for sure those two are connected to your lover." I scowled. He talked so lightly of her. As if she's some sort of evil thing. His eyes drifted back up from the body and the dust. "It's funny, I've been here for a week and I've already solved it. Yet you've been here for much, much longer and you still can't see what's right in front of your face." This shocked me. He knew? He knew everything? I stood flipping out my cell phone. "Who are you calling?" Stein asked.
"My boss."

Hope you enjoyed! I really, really LOVED this chapter. It was really fun to write and twist my ideas. Tell me what you though in reviews! Okay. Now in this chapter there is the name of one of my favorite bands. If you can PM me first with what it is then I will do one of the following for you:
1. Put in a character of your choice (OC or from the anime)
2. Draw you a picture of one of your favorite characters or scenes from here.
3. Write a chapter according to your ideas (well… depending on what the idea is.)
Have fun ;)
Clue: it's in 1 of Soul's POV
