Me- Was Kid complimenting me? -Shrugs and walks away-
Normal
I opened my eyes and saw that I wasn't in the meadow anymore. I was in a dim room with a black and white checkered floor. I sat on a red velvet chair and a record player sat next to me playing jazz.
'My favorite kind of music.' I thought. I was going to put my hands in my jacket but I couldn't find the pockets. I looked at myself and I wasn't wearing my black jacket, I wore a tux instead. I had a red dress shirt under and a black tie. 'What the hell?' I thought. I rubbed my head and then realized that I didn't have my headband either. I shrugged and ignored it.
I was in the meadow one minute, the next, I'm in a dim room with what seemed like jazz music coming from somewhere. I looked around the room and spotted a mirror. I looked at myself and gasped. I wore a blood red dress with black lace over it. I had black lace gloves that passed my elbow with red ribbons and black heels. No wonder I felt weird. My hair was loose instead of the usual pigtails. I looked around the room and saw a curtain not far from me.
I looked around the room and saw a curtain across from where I was sitting. Someone with heels walked closer and I got up. Before I took a step toward it, the curtain pulled back and Maka appeared. I looked at her from head to toe. She wore a black lace dress with red under it, black heels that didn't make her look too tall. She had black lace elbow length gloves with red ribbons and red ribbons in her hair. I smiled at her.
"Hello Maka."
I walked over to the curtain and my heels echoed across the room. I pulled back the curtain and saw Soul standing in front of a red chair. He wore a black tux with a red dress shirt and a black tie. He smiled at me.
"Hello Maka." he said. I smiled and walked over to him, stopping a few feet from him.
"Hi Soul." I said. Soul stepped aside and with his hand, gestured to the chair. "Thanks." I smiled. I sat and Soul sat on the chair next to me.
We sat in a comfortable silence. All I could think about was how nice she looked. The song ended and a slower song started. I looked at Maka and she was looking at her dress. I got up and stretched my hand out to her. Maka looked at it and she looked at me. I rolled my eyes and grabbed her hand. I led her to the middle of the room and, without letting her hand go, I grabbed her waist. She put her hand on my shoulder and we started dancing.
The jazz music was calming and I enjoyed it. I looked at our feet, well my feet, hoping I wouldn't step on him.
"Maka," Soul said. I looked at him and his crimson eyes stared back at me. I tried really hard to not stutter but I failed.
"Y-Yeah Soul?" Soul chuckled.
"You look really nice Maka." I stared him and lightly smiled.
"Thanks, so do you." I said looking down. I felt my face get hot and Soul sighed.
"Maka, why are you so nervous? Just chill." Soul said as he shook his head.
She looked at her feet, trying really hard not to step on me. I shifted my eyes and stared at her dress. I know nothing about fashion, but I do know that it brightened her eyes more.
"Maka," I said. I thought I whispered it but she heard me. She looked up and her eyes met mine.
"Y-Yeah Soul?" she stuttered. I chuckled. "
You look really nice Maka." Maka stared at me and smiled a little.
"Thanks, so do you." Maka looked at our feet again and I could see a faint red appear on her cheeks. I shook my head.
'She needs to calm down.' I thought. "Maka, why are you nervous? Just chill." Maka nodded, took a deep breath and relaxed.
"Okay," She said more confident.
I can chill. I took a deep breath and nodded. "Okay," I said as confidently as I could. Soul grinned showing his teeth and spun me. I tripped and Soul caught me in a smooth dip. I laughed and we stood up straight. We kept dancing until the music stopped. Soul looked at the record and let me go. He walked over to it and searched for something.
"Damn..." he muttered. Someone pulled my dress behind me and I turned. A little red demon stood behind me smiling evilly. I screamed and jumped back.
"Don't worry, I don't bite."
The fact of having Maka in my arms made me happy. The music stopped and I looked at the player.
'Great,' I thought. I let go of Maka and searched for another record. "Damn..." I muttered. I couldn't find one. Maka screamed behind me and I turned around. A short devil guy stood there with a creepy smile.
"Don't worry, I don't bite." I got in front of Maka and glared at him.
"What do you want?" I asked. The demon looked at me and smiled. His teeth were sharp but, unlike mine, his were yellow and crooked.
"I'm here to inform you guys that trouble will start brewing." He said turning and walking to a chair.
"What do you mean?" I said still hiding behind Soul. The devil sat on the chair and turned the record player on. Different music played and he snapped his fingers along.
"I ruin a lot of lives but I seem to like you two, so I won't hurt you. For now at least." The demon laughed and Soul got angry.
"What the hell are you talking about!" The demon got up and walked to Soul.
"I live in your soul now. When the time is ready, I'll ask if you want more strength. That's all I'm saying, I don't want to ruin the surprise!" The demon laughed and Soul growled. The room melted around us and I was pulled away from Soul.
This demon guy was starting to piss me off. I started to feel light headed when Maka let go of me. I turned and she was being dragged away from me.
"Soul, just remember one thing: anything that happens to her, it's your fault." I stared at him and backed away. The room went black and I closed my eyes. "Face it Soul, soon you're going to have to die for her." I started hyperventilating. I opened my eyes and I was back in the meadow. I sat up and Maka was kneeling in front of me and she hugged me.
"He's awake! I'll put you on speaker!" Maka pulled back and I wrapped my arm around her waist and sat her on my lap.
"Soul! I need you and Maka to listen closely! My father found a witch and he needs us to kill her. He needs her soul for something so we can't keep it. Think of it as training for you and Maka. But I need you guys to hurry up and get your butts to my house NOW!"
~Normal~
Soul grabbed the phone, closed it and shoved it in his pocket.
"Let's go." He helped Maka up and they cleaned the mess. They climbed up, Soul trying to hold on to the basket. They got to the motorcycle and they drove at full speed to Kid's house.
~At Kid's house~
Soul stopped in the driveway and Liz came running out.
"Hurry up! Get your butts in here before I drag you guys!" Maka ran in and Soul ran after her. The whole group sat in the perfectly clean and symmetrical living room. The rug was perfectly white and it there was a candle stand in every corner with a candle. The black couches were made of some type of soft material and the three sat down. Lord Death sat on the big black arm chair his big white gloves resting on the armrests and he nodded. Black Star sat next to Tsubaki, he had an arm around her shoulders. Kid sat next to Crona and Patty. Liz sat on the floor next to Patty. Soul sat on the couch and Maka sat next to him.
"Nice of you two to join us." Lord Death said. Soul sighed and Maka nodded once. "Okay kids. There is a witch. Her name is Sara and she is really evil. She has unimaginable powers and I need you guys to take her tonight. I just ask that you guys be very careful." Lord Death said. Kid stood up and looked at his dad.
"Don't worry father. We can take her. Plus with Soul and Maka, if they are really good as you say, we can have her in a flash." Black Star jumped up and he started yelling.
"DON'T WORRY! THE GREAT BLACK STAR WILL BRING YOU BACK HER SOUL BEFORE YOU CAN SAY TIMBUCKTOO! YAHOO!" Tsubaki sighed and pulled him back down to the couch. Lord Death gave the kids instructions to a town across Death City and find the witch. With that, the group left.
~In a town outside of Death City~
"So... This witch. What exactly does she do?" Soul said looking around.
"Whatever she imagines happens. She can turn us into animals, things, or even kill us. Anyway let's get ready." Kid said scanning the perimeter.
"Tsubaki, Trap Star." Tsubaki nodded and she surrounded the group.
"Liz, Patty." Kid said.
"Right!" Liz said and they both turned into guns. Kid grabbed them without even looking.
"Ready Soul?" Maka said turning to Soul. Soul smiled and he turned into a scythe. The three miesters stood waiting for the witch. Black Star held one of his blades to his face and closed his eyes, repeating the three assassin rules in his head. Kid aimed his guns to the sky, ready for her appearance. Maka held Soul across her body the blade almost touching the ground and she tightly gripped the pipe.
Crona held on to Ragnarok, after he turned into a black sword.
"She's here." The three miesters simultaneously said. Just then a witch appeared with a distorted face and she laughed.
"Let's go!" Kid yelled. Black Star activated Trap Star and the witch dodged Tsubaki's blade. Kid fired at her and she dodged them with no problem. Maka ran to her and swung but missed when she flew up. Crona was pulled by her sword, Ragnarok, and she stabbed the witch. The witch laughed and it sent Crona flying back.
Black Star swung Tsubaki around and was able to cut pieces of her clothes. Maka from behind swung at the witch but she pushed Maka away. Maka hit a brick wall and fell face forward.
"Maka!" Soul transformed into a human and ran to her. "Maka! Are you okay?" Maka looked at him. Worried showed in his eyes and she smiled.
"I'm fine. Let's go Soul!" Soul smiled and helped her up. He transformed again into his weapon and she ran to the witch.
"Death Cannon!" Kid yelled.
"Enchanted Sword!" Black Star yelled. Patty and Liz turned into cannons in Kid's hands and he bent down aiming at the witch. Tsubaki switched to a black sword and Black Star had black streaks across his face.
"5...4...3...2..." Patty and Liz said.
"1" Kid said.
"Shadow Puppet!" Black Star yelled.
"Ragnarok, scream." Crona shyly said. The moment the cannon shot hitting the witch, Black Star's shadow got up and stabbed her. The night was filled with Ragnarok's scream. The witch laughed.
"Maka! Slice her!" Kid yelled. Maka nodded. Before she ran, the witch screamed.
"It's hopeless! I will still be here even after you take my soul!" The witch stretched her hand and the gang got shocked with what felt like a thousand volts of electricity. Maka, even with all the pain, ran to her and sliced her. The witch tore apart and all that was left was her red soul.
Maka fell to the floor and Soul clattered next to her.
"Maka!" Soul yelled. He turned into a human but once he did he crumbled next to her. Tsubaki and the twins by then were also on the floor. The pain was unbearable. Finally, it went away. Maka opened her eyes and looked around. Soul's long white hair covered him. Wait! Long? LONG WHITE HAIR! Soul looked at her and his eyes widened.
"Maka?" Maka sat up and looked at the rest of the guys. Kid had long black hair that went to the middle of his back. His white stripes still in his bangs. He wore a black short sleeve shirt and a black skirt with black converse. Liz and Patty had short spiked hair and they wore purple high top sneakers with blue jeans and a purple shirt. Tsubaki had kaki jeans with black shoes and a white T-shirt. Her hair was short and messy. Black Star had a sleeveless shirt and white pants and flats. His hair was still bright blue but it was straight and it went down to his waist. Crona still had short pink hair and she wore a black shirt, jeans, and gym shoes.
"What happened!" Liz screamed. Maka got up and looked at herself. She had black skinny jeans with silver high top shoes and a white shirt with red letters that said, 'Cool story babe... Now go make me a sandwich.' Soul looked at her and Maka saw him clearly. He had a yellow shirt and black shorts. He had yellow flats and his white hair stuck up at the top and the rest hanged down his neck.
"The witch switched out gender." Kid said looking at himself.
"Great! How am I supposed to go back to normal?" Black Star screamed. Everybody started yelling and Kid threw himself on the floor claiming to be 'unsymmetrical'.
"SHUT UP!" Patty yelled. The group got quiet and stared at her. Even Kid stopped his ranting. "Shut up! You guys are acting like a bunch of girls! Let's go back to Lord Death and find out how to fix this!" Kid got up and walked over to Patty.
"Patty... Giraffes." With that Patty shook her head and started giggling. Liz shook her head and sighed.
"She's right. Let's go see what Lord Death says." Kid nodded and placed the witches soul in a jar.
~Back at Kid's house~
Lord Death stared at the group and muffled his laughter. "Until... I can contact... one of my old friends you guys... and girls... have to stay like that." Lord Death blew up in laughter. Kid groaned and stood up.
"You guys can leave now. I'll call you guys once I find a cure." Black Star and Tsubaki got up and awkwardly left.
"Soul, you coming home today?" Black Star said looking at Soul. Soul looked at Maka and she smiled.
"If you want to stay there is always the couch." Soul smiled and shook his head.
"I'll stay at Maka's again." Black Star nodded and left. The twins got up said good night and left. Kid angrily stomped out of the room while Lord Death kept laughing. Crona followed Kid and she waved at Maka and Soul.
"Let's go." Soul said grabbing Maka's hand and leading her to the bike. They got on and sped off.
~Maka's house~
Soul parked in front and they walked in 'Never once did I think a girl would be driving a bike and a guy in the back.' Soul thought. Maka knocked on Blair's door but no answer came out. They walked upstairs and Soul noticed that Spirit was gone. He flopped on the couch and Maka went to the kitchen. After a few minutes Maka muttered something about going grocery shopping. Soul thought a while and got up.
"I'll be back. " Maka looked at him and smiled
"Okay." Soul opened the door and left to Black Star's place. Maka sat on the couch and watched TV.
Black Star and Soul packed all of his clothes and they agreed that tomorrow the bed, and shelves were going to be put in Maka's place. After an hour, Soul knocked on Maka's door and she was greeted by three boxes.
"Sorry but I brought my clothes and stuff." Maka let him in and helped carry the stuff to his new room. "Here, this is my favorite sweater and T-shirt wear it tomorrow, and also these." Soul threw Maka some jeans a black sweater and a blue shirt. Maka nodded and went to her room. She came back with a green shirt, some shorts and her flats.
"Might as well let you use these." Soul smiled and put them on a box. They went to the living room and set up the blankets. Soul climbed on the couch and covered himself.
"Anything else you need?" Maka said standing by the other couch. Soul shook his head and closed his eyes. Maka nodded and went to her room. She took out some pajama pants and a T- shirt. Just as she was going to climb into bed Soul called her.
"Maka, I need something!" Maka rolled her eyes and walked over to him.
"Yeah?" She said walking in the living room. Soul looked at her and sat up.
"A coke?" Maka turned and took a can from the fridge.
"Here, if you need anything else just get up and grab it." Soul looked at her and lifted an eyebrow.
"Anything?" he said. Maka nodded and turned to her room. She walked three steps when Soul grabbed her and carried her to the couch.(1) Maka screamed a little and tried to free herself. "You said that if I need anything to grab it. I want you so I grabbed you." Soul said laying on the couch with her. Maka froze and sighed. She did say that...
"Fine but don't try any funny business." Soul chuckled and hugged her tighter.
A while later Soul carefully got up and walked to the hallway. Maka snuggled in the couch and closed her eyes again. "Maka?" Maka sighed,
"What Soul?" Soul didn't say anything.
"How do I use the bathroom?" Maka sat up and swore.
"You... uhh.. sit." Soul closed the bathroom door and he came out after five minutes.
"I don't know how you girls do this. By the way, in case you're wondering, you aim." Soul sat sitting on the couch. Maka covered her ears.
"Don't say anymore!" She said. Soul laughed and grabbed her arms pinning them to her sides.
"Let's go to sleep Maka." Maka looked at him and nodded. Soul laid on the couch, his back to the back rest, and Maka face him and snuggled into his chest.
The next morning Maka woke up and Soul was still holding her. Her head was under Soul's chin and she tried to get out of his grasp. Soul pulled her closer and snuggled his head in her neck. She got goose bumps and shivered. His breath tickled her neck. She slid out and just as Soul squeezed her she put her body pillow. Soul squeezed it and whispered her name. Maka giggled and went to the bathroom. She took a shower and questioned on how to use the bathroom. She walked out in a towel and quickly changed into the clothes Soul gave her. She put on the silver shoes she magically had on yesterday and walked to the kitchen.
The smell of bacon woke Soul up and he smiled. "Good morning Maka," He said hugging her. Soul felt her fluffy and he looked at the pillow. He narrowed his eyes and threw it to the other couch. He sat up and saw Maka in the kitchen cooking. He got up and walked up to her. He leaned against the counter next to her and she looked at him.
"Good morning sleepy head." Soul looked at her. Her short hair was sticking out in different directions. Somehow, Soul was still just a bit taller (since Maka's shoes made her a little taller). His clothes seemed to fit her fine and he chuckled.
"I wake up thinking you're still in my arms, and I find a body pillow." Soul said eyeing her. Maka put the bacon on a plate and began to scramble eggs.
"Sorry, but I got tired of laying down." Maka said innocently. Soul laughed and sat down at the kitchen table.
-0-
"We have to grocery shopping." Maka said. Soul sat on the couch and groaned. He wore the green shirt Maka gave him the shorts and her flats. Maka couldn't help but giggle a little.
"But what if people see us?" He said looking at Maka. She shook her head and shrugged.
"Oh well. Let's stay at home and starve." Soul's eyes widened and got up.
"Let's go shopping!" Soul quickly left and Maka followed locking the door.
-0-
Soul pushed the car and Maka put everything they need in there. Soul noticed a group of girls pointing at Maka. Soul stood up straight and glared at them, but they ignored him. All they did was giggle and talk about Maka, of course being Maka, she was too oblivious to it.
"Maka, you have some fan girls." Soul whispered. Maka from the corner of her eye saw them and tensed up.
"How do we get them away?" Soul thought.
"Just follow my lead." Maka forcefully had to pass them to get some sauce for spaghetti and they smiled.
"Hello!" One girl said. Maka looked at them and lightly smiled. "Hey." She looked at the sauces and tried to ignore them.
"What's your name?" another girl said. Maka tensed up. She felt like Crona, she didn't know how to deal with this! Maka looked at Soul and he smiled.
"Soul!" he said reaching her. Maka looked at him and caught on.
"Yeah Maka?" she said. Soul grabbed her arm and hugged it.
"We don't need that sauce! We need this one!" Soul said reaching to a random jar. Maka chuckled and nodded.
"Oh right! Sorry!" Maka said rubbing the back of her head. Soul smiled and clung to Maka. Maka kissed the top of her head and hugged her tighter.
"You have a girlfriend?" Maka turned and saw one of the girls ask her. Maka nodded and looked at Soul.
"Yeah," Maka worked up the courage and kissed Soul in the cheek. Soul blushed and stared at her. Maka winked and Soul walked back to the cart.
They checked out and walked back to the apartment. Soul was quiet during the rest of the trip and while they put the groceries away. "Hey Soul? What's wrong?" Maka asked. Soul looked at her and sighed.
"Nothing." Maka sat in front of him in the couch and stared at him.
"Soul, you're acting like a girl." Soul looked at Maka and got angry.
"I'm not acting like a girl! I'm too cool to be one!" Maka laughed and pointed at him.
"You sound like Black Star!" She said still laughing. Soul stared at her like she just grew a cow. (2) Soul's phone rang and he answered.
"Yo." Soul said coolly.
"Soul it's Kid! I think I found a cure to this whole mess! I'm on my way with the rest of the guys to pick you two up okay?" Soul sighed in relief.
"Thank Shinigami! Okay!" Soul shut the phone and looked at Maka. "Kid found a cure." Maka smiled and sat back on the couch.
"Great!"
