Something Brewing

Chapter 10

Susannah

They said I was out cold for 3 days. The first thing I noticed, when I woke back in my own bedroom, was that I felt really light. Once I knew what had happened, I began to realise how much of a heavy burden BREW had been. Now, it was safely in Shinigami's safe. It would be protected there.

I smiled to myself as Maka walked in. "Soul!" She cried, "Come quick!" She sat on the bed as Soul appeared.

"You're awake!" He smiled at me and leaned on the doorframe.

Maka took my hand and said, "You feeling ok?"

Surprisingly, I was. I was more content than I had been in a long time. Obviously my injuries had been healing while I was asleep, and I felt so happy. "Yeh, I am," I replied.

"Will you miss it?" Soul asked me. I shook my head.

"All it did was put me in danger." I answered, swinging my legs out of bed. I examined the spots where my skin had been badly bruised or cut. Only faint marks now. Sure, the bruises fade, but the pain will still remain in my memories. I still remember how they kept me so afraid. My strength is my friends for all the love they have given. It was all a dream to me now, nothing more than a memory. For once in my life, I could honestly say, I'm ok.

Death the Kid

I stood over his dead body, a gunshot in the back of his head. Ha! Not so immortal now are we? I laughed out loud. We had searched for Free, and had found his location, along with Medusa. I had pulled the trigger and Bam! He fell down dead. I shoved the body with my foot.

"What about Medusa?" Patti asked.

"She'll be long gone. Without any back up, she will have run off. I don't think we should worry about her for now." I took one last look at the man I hated, who had caused me so much pain, before walking to the nearest window. I breathed on it and wrote my fathers number.

"Hullo Kid!"

"Free's dead." I spoke with an emotionless tone, like I couldn't care less.

"That's good… Hey, guess who's awake!"

My eyes widened and without hesitation, I summoned my skateboard and flew back to Death City as fast as I could.

Susannah

I was with Shinigami when Kid called. I felt so much relief when I heard that that monster was dead. I could finally relax; He was gone from my life. A little ironic, but I felt, well, free. When I saw Kid in the mirror, my pulse had shot up. Dear God, I love him.

"Go to him. He'll be back in a few minutes," Shinigami had said.

I walked, feeling slightly nervous for some reason, down the corridor out of Shibusen and through the front entrance.

We both freeze. The guns fell from his hands and turned back into humans. In silence, we start to walk towards each other. I run and throw my arms around his neck. He pulls my waist towards him and kisses me, his soft lips pressing against mine. My heart sours. After a while, I pull away, open my eyes and say, "Kid, I love you." He grins as kisses me again, pulling me closer.

I hear Liz tut and Patti giggle. They walk away, leaving us alone. I feel so light. Finally, now Free was dead, and BREW was no longer with me, I could be with Kid without any worries. I couldn't help but laugh.

"I love you too," Kid whispers before he kisses me lightly on my neck. I swoon and closed my eyes.

All my life I had been trapped by BREW. My life had revolved around keeping it safe with so many restrictions. But now, I'm free, with the guy I love.

Maybe BREW was destined to leave me.

Maybe I don't have to be alone anymore.

My first fan fiction finished ;)
