Kitty moon priestess: I like the anime but to me the ending was crap. A courage punch defeated the greatest threat to the world? C'mon guys...
SoMa Forgotten Souls Chapter 8 Part 3
I don't own Soul Eater. If I did, it probably wouldn't be any good.
Finally, the end.
Maka began to make her way back to the demon. A hundred thoughts began to swim through her head. 'Now what?' 'What is the demon going to do now that I have the key?' 'Can I beat him?' 'How can I help Soul?' but the most fearful thought that kept creeping its way to the front of her mind was, 'What if I lose?' No. She forced herself not to think about it. Her footsteps echoed in the halls and soon she found herself standing in front of the demon. He was smiling evilly, as if he knew she had the key. Of course he knew. That's what was most annoying about him. "So, I see you found it?" Maka nodded, "Yeah. I got it." The demon held the box that contained the rest of Soul, out to her, "Well what are you waiting for? Open it! Then we can see which of us can get him first!"
Maka took the box and held the key tightly in her hand. Inside, Soul could tell Maka had found the key. "Good, now hide the key and get out of here!" From inside he heard the demon speaking, "Whats the matter? Don't you want to save your precious partner?" Soul grimaced. The demon was taunting her. If there was one thing Soul knew, it was that Maka would never back down from a challenge. "Don't listen to him Maka! Just take the key and get out of here!" He heard her voice this time, "Yes. I do want to save him." The demon laughed maniacally and said, "Then open it. We can't accomplish either of our goals with the box still closed now can we?"
Maka placed the key in the keyhole and turned it. A golden light enveloped her and she disappeared inside the box. The demon began to liquefy and followed shortly after. The lid slammed shut and the box crashed to the floor.
Maka saw nothing but darkness. She could feel she was moving forward. But she couldn't see a thing. When she turned around she could see the madness gaining on her. It wouldn't be long before it overtook her. Up ahead she began to see a light. The closer she got she realized that the light was a steady stream of images. As she flew by them she could see that they were Soul's memories. And they all had one thing in common, both she and soul were in them. She didn't have time to think about it long, she could feel the madness even closer than before now.
Finally she reached a large room with only a single shaft of light entering in. In the middle of the room was a large pillar. At the top of it, was Soul. From his waist down he was completely made out of stone. His hand was frozen in a reaching position, but his face could still move. And he wasn't happy.
Soul couldn't believe her! She just charged inside without even thinking about the madness. "Soul!" She began to move towards him. "Maka you idiot! I told you how to find the key so you could keep the demon out!" She didn't answer him but kept flying towards him. Behind her he could see the madness hot on her tail. "Maka! Look ou..." He couldn't finish his sentence, because her body had crashed into his own. She hugged him fiercely as the madness enveloped them both.
Outside, Blackstar, Kid, and the others were getting worried. "Look!" Maka and Soul began to glow a sinister red. The madness radiating from the two was almost overwhelming. Kid grit his teeth, "Oh no! They're being taken over!" Just then a blue light began to shine between them. It kept getting stronger as it battled with the red light, each trying to gain supremacy over the other. Tsubaki silently pleaded, "C'mon Maka..."
Soul just stood there as she kept hugging him. It wasn't like he could do anything else. He used his free hand to stroke her hair. "Soul..." He rested his forehead on top of hers. "Why? Why'd you open it when you knew I wanted you to run?" She leaned into his neck, "You'd have done the same for me." Soul grinned, "Yeah. Of course I would. I love you idiot." She lifted her head to face him, "I love you too Soul." She then pressed her lips firmly against his. Soul felt like he was going to melt. 'So not cool...' Then he smiled and kissed her back 'but i can live with that.'
The blue light then became so strong no one could look at it. The demon screamed in rage and pain as the light flooded him, erasing the madness. When the light dimmed, Soul opened his eyes and got up. Maka, still sitting only smiled up at him. Soul grinned and held out his hand, "C'mon Maka. Lets get everyone and go home." She nodded and took his hand, "Yeah."
Welp, for those of you who were expecting a good ending, sorry, you got this instead. The ending was rushed and really cheesy, but i Like cheese so it's all good. Adios!
