Me: Alright everyone I have some good news and some bad news.
Soul: Cool. The good news?
Me: I will be starting my first SoulxMaka multi-chapter story after this chapter of my collection of one-shots.
Maka: The bad news?
Me: I probably wont be updating this for a while. I will try my best to but the truth is I'm running out of good ideas and songs.
Soul: That's fine with me. I for one am tired of getting called cute all the time. Don't people know that only the cool guys can afford to be cute and emotional?
Maka: It's true.
Me: I believe its your turn Soul.
Soul: Yeah and about time. S0uleaterevans does not own Soul Eater or any of the songs that this story is based off of. Alright spill it. Which lovey dovey song did you pick this time?
Me: "Broken" by Seether
Maka: I LOVE THAT SONG!
Soul: Yeah that one is actually pretty cool.
Me: Well I hope everyone enjoys it.
Maka: R&R or I will take your soul.
Soul's Pov
This isn't right.
This is wrong.
What am I doing?
I shouldn't be here.
I shouldn't be alone.
Why am I alone?
Stupid Death Scythe missions.
Always pulling us apart.
I was driving down a road somewhere in New Mexico.
She was sent on a mission somewhere in Europe.
"This is wrong. I should be with her! I should be by her side." I thought to myself.
We had been together, as weapon and meister, for 5 years now.
Yeah sure I'm a Death Scythe now. But I'm still "her" scythe.
And now she's on some mission without a weapon. How is she gonna defend herself?
I know she's strong.
I know she's brave.
But she's also reckless, and stupid.
If she's not careful she will get herself killed.
She'd probably be laughing at me right now if she could hear my thoughts.
I love the way she laughs.
The way she smiles.
Everything about her.
Maybe that's away I hate the thought of her in pain.
But I'm her weapon.
I'm supposed to protect her.
I want to be with her. To steal her pain away.
"Maka…."
I looked at her picture I had taped next to the speedometer on my motorcycle.
It serves me well to be able to see her smile. Even if she wasn't here with me.
"Maka I swear as soon as I'm done here, I will join you. Just wait for me. And don't do anything stupid."
I revved the engine to full throttle and sped crazily toward my destination known to the towns folk as "the gates of hell".
Maka's pov
This isn't right.
This is wrong.
What am I doing?
I shouldn't be here.
I shouldn't be alone.
Why am I alone?
Stupid recon missions.
Always pulling us apart.
I was ordered by Lord Death to check out an "accident" at one of the old mills in Germany.
Apparently the use of my soul perception is critical to this mission. Which as why I was chosen.
A recon mission.
Things could get hairy if I wasn't careful.
I heard a bing and then a voice from the announcer.
Our flight will be landing in Berlin shortly. Please fasten your seatbelts.
I let out an exhausted breath.
I wish he was with me. He steals my pain away.
The pain of being alone.
Because I'm broken when I'm alone.
When I'm without him.
I just don't feel right when he's gone.
When he's out of my reach.
"No! Snap out of it Maka! All you gotta do is get this mission done and over with and you can go home" I thought to myself.
I took a picture I had of him out from my wallet.
Its nice to see his smile even if he's not here with me.
It gives me the strength to move forward. Even when I don't feel I'm strong enough.
"Soul…..I'll be home soon."
Soul's pov
Stupid kishin. All this trouble for one, ONE, kishin.
Ugh I need a drink.
But all the bars are closed.
Well that's just great. What a freaking headache.
I cant believe I was dragged out here to deal with one measly kishin. It didn't even put up a good fight.
And it tasted like shit.
I need to wash this flavor out of my mouth.
I did some driving before I found an open bar.
"Just one drink should do it. After all I got a lot of driving to do." I thought to myself.
"Oh wait, I should report back to Lord Death."
I used one of the windows on the bar and dialed his number.
"Hey hey hey, howdy, nice to see ya Soul. How'd the mission go?" the death god was as cartoonish as ever.
"YOU SENT ME ALL THE WAY OUT HERE FOR ONE KISHIN? ARE YOU TRYING TO PISS ME OFF CUZ IT'S WORKING!" I yelled at the death god. I was more then livid.
"Now now Soul it is your responsibility as-"
"Yeah yeah I know. As Death Scythe of America to blah blah blah. But honestly. A one star weapon and meister pairing could have taken this thing out with no problem." this was just a waste of my time and talent. Anyways I'm on my way back. Any word from Maka yet?" I asked with a slightly worried tone.
"No but I have been monitoring her for a while now. She's fine and almost done with her mission from the looks of things."
"Good. Well then I will be signing off. Be back soon." and with that I cut the connection."
Maka's pov
Well that was interesting.
Apparently the so called "accident" was nothing more than a small kishin making mischief.
What a waste of time.
I would have been more than happy to deal with it myself. But unfortunately I was ordered not to engage.
"Might as well report back to Lord Death." I told myself.
I found a nearby window and dialed his number.
"Hey hey hey, hiya, good to see ya Maka. What have you found?"
"It's just a kishin making trouble that's all. Kind of a waste of time. You sure I cant just deal with him now?" I asked almost pleading.
"I'm sorry Maka but no. I think I will leave it to one of our new students to take care of it."
"Fine. In that case I will be heading back on the next flight. By the way. How's Soul doing with his mission?" I asked, trying not to sound worried.
"Oh he's done with his already. Turns out there was only one kishin to deal with on his end as well. I'm really sorry about this Maka." the Death God said apologetically.
"I suppose it couldn't be helped. At least we are all safe. I'm gonna go then. See you soon."
And with that I broke the connection.
**back at the death room**
"Jeez I wish those two would just hook up already. This is torture watching them ignore their feelings like this." the death god stated.
"No octopus-head is getting anywhere near my Maka. I absolutely forbid it" Spirit yelled.
"You know you really are annoying."
"MAAAAKAAAAA!"
"REEEAAAAPEEEEER CHOP!"
"Honestly you should learn to control your outburst Spirit."
Third person pov
Both Maka and Soul were now on their way back from their mission.
Both were annoyed at how easy they were.
And relieved that it was all over.
Both wanting to be with their partner as soon as possible.
"I'm coming home Maka." Soul said as he sped down the desert rode.
"I'm coming home Soul." Maka said as the plane lifted off the ground in Berlin.
And soon both their broken hearts would be mended.
**Me: And that's that.**
Soul: Not a bad chapter at all.
Me: But not cool?
Soul: Eh. I've read cooler.
Maka: Well I thought it was cool.
Me: Thanks Maka. So I have will have the first chapter of my new story posted later tonight. Thank you all for reading and I will try to post new chapters in this collection as soon as possible. Send me out with a bang guys.
Maka and Soul: Review or we'll take your soul!
