I couldn't see, I could only hear muffled voices every once in a while. Some of the voices were light others were deep, somewhere soft and others were loud. The voices said my name, they were asking me if I was ok, what happen or were telling me to wake up. The all voices sound worried. I wanted to reach out and say I am fine, but they shouldn't worry. But I was frozen in my place, my body wouldn't move. I wanted to scream, yell for someone to help me, I was so scared.

This voice is suddenly stopped, they left me alone in the darkness with no way out. I felt a hand touch my arm, they gripped my arm hard, and I thought there was blood dripping down it. The person's nails were digging into my skin. A deep hushed voice whispered into my ear, I couldn't tell what they were saying. I screwed my eyes shut and bit my lip hoping the person would let me go. When they eventually did I opened up my eyes and I saw a big burst of light I ran towards it.

At first I saw a little white spots in my eyes. There were two faces hovering above me, I slowly one by one blinked away the spots. I was able to make out the faces hovering above me was Tori and Katie. I was no longer on the stage, instead I was on the floor just before the stage end. Is a crowd of people for on all around me, everyone had to stop what they were doing and swarmed around me after I passed out.

Well almost everyone, in the back of the skating ring there were few people trying their best to avoid eye contact with anyone and everyone. They were standing hello in a group staring at each other, every once in a while their eyes and shift to the group around me. My dad was being held back by Stein. Even without looking at them, and then looking at me, I thought their eyes burning into the back of my head.

The group that have formed around me slowly moved away to let the paramedics in. The paramedics made everyone but my friend move away and go back to what they were doing. They checked my pulse, breathing, heart rate, my eyes and my temperature. The whole time Jack sat next to me on the stage. When I could, I would glance at Nikki who was yelling at my father in Spanish.

"We think you passed out because of dehydration, we suggest that you go home, drink lots of water, and get some rest." A female paramedics said with the sweet smile on her face trying to calm me down.

"Ok, thank you." I replied trying to smile back but I couldn't. I was just so exhausted by today's events.

I was so exhausted that I even fell asleep on Jack's shoulder. It wasn't until he should gently shook my shoulder and put his hand on mine. I rubbed my eyes not knowing I was on his shoulder.

"Hey Maka, wake up." He said in a smooth voice.

I sat up, rubbing my eyes still half an asleep. "What…?"

"Hey sleepy head, have a nice nap?" He said in his sexy smooth voice. Wait…did I just call his voice sexy? What is going on with me? The more I looked at his face the sexier it became. I just couldn't stop staring. I felt a blush start to form on my cheeks.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"For a good hour or so."

"Why didn't you wake me up?" I was so mad at him for not waking me up. I sleept on his shoulder for a hour and he did do anything? Well… it was nice of him to use his shoulder as a pillow. (I blushed harder at this tought.)

"You just looked so cute sleeping like that, I didn't have it my heart to wake you up form such a pecaful state." He looked at me with his deep brown eyes.

If my face wasn't all ready red, it was now. "Thank you…"

He put his hand to my fourhead, "Are you ok? Your face is red."

At the touch of his hand I felt my hart jump out of my chest. I couldn't find the worlds in my mouth to say anything. God what wrong with me?! Why am I acting like a fan girl all the sudden? "Yes! I'm fine." I said in a hury trying to force the words out of my mouth. He looked at me one last time before taking away his hand. I let out a small sigh in relief, he didn't see that I'm nervous.

"If you say so." He looked pass my shoulder over to the food stand area. "Hey, do you know those people?" He said pointing to a group of table pack with people eating and talking about random things happing in their life.

I squint my eyes looking for the person he was talking about but I couldn't tell who he was pointing to. "Who are you pointing to?"

"Someone with white hair, the only person over there with white hair."

It took me a while to finally spot who he was pointing to but when I did, I wish I hadn't. There was Soul and everyone else siting at a table taking to each other. "No I don't know him." I said in a hoarse voice.

"Are you sure? He has been straying at you the whole time."

As soon as he said that Soul looked up we locked eyes with each other. We stared at each other for a long time waiting for one of use to bark the connection. But no one dared to move our eyes. Scarlet tried to her Soul's attention but failed to do so. Instead she followed so eyes to me, in a second she leaned over the table and said something to my old friends. Instantly they all turned their head and stared at me. They whisperer over the table to each other about who knows what, their eyes would drift over to Jack and I on the stage. Just looking at them made my head spin, their eyes burned holes in my head. I can't stand it in here, I want to get out of here. No, I need to get out of here before I pass out again!

"Maka are you ok? Your face is green." He put his hands on my shoulder. "Do you want me to take you home?"

"Yes please," I spited out.

Jack help off the stage and put his hands on my hips, he lift me off the stage. Everything happen in slow motion, all I could do was look over to the group of people watching us. They had bug eyes and no one was saying anything. When Jack set me back on the floor he took my hand in to his, he lead me out of the skating ring (on the way out he told everyone else that we were leaving). The whole time as we left Soul's group stared at us.

My father was next to Stein sitting on a small wooden bench, he had a serious look on his face but at the same time his eyes were filled with saddens. I knew why he looked that way, when I left I must have put so much stress on him. Maybe I should've told him where I was going. But if I had told him he would've stop to me or flown down here to drive me back. It was for the best, right? Part of me didn't believe that was true.

When my father decided to look up, he looked right into my eyes. He started to stand and open his mouth to say something but he was cut off by Jack hurried me into his car. The whole time as I got in his car I never took my eyes off my dad, neither did he, my dad didn't even look away when some women in tight revealing clothes walked right past him.

The car roaring engine snapped me out of my zombie like state. I didn't remember getting into the car or putting on to my seatbelt, but here I am was the seatbelt was on and we were driving away from the skating ring. I slam down on the button that rolls up and down the windows. (What is that button called again?) I really needed some air also I could use this as an excuse to look back at my dad. When Jack stopped to turn, I stuck my head out the window and looked back. Nikki and everyone was walking past Stein and my father on their way to the car. Stein what's talking to Soul's little group, my dad was staring out at Jack's car. Nikki saw me and started yelling my name real loud all jumping up-and-down. Soon the others joined in all the yelling, Alex even ran after Jack's car to see if you could catch up to it before he turn. (Luckily no one was behind us waiting.) I couldn't help myself, with a huge smile on my face are yelled back in the top of my lungs.

Everyone was watching, but we didn't care, something about what we were doing made us all smile. It was dark and so cool that you could see your breath, all the stars were out, something about everything just seems so right. I felt like I had nothing to worry about, Soul being here no longer made me feel sick. I could care less if Soul's little group were staring at me weird, I felt like I was at home for the first time in a long time.

Nikki cupped her mouth and sucked in a big breath of air. "Hey, Maka want to race home with us?" She yell on the top of her lungs.

I put my head back inside the car and looked at Jack. "Nikki wants to know if we liked race them."

Jack looked up into the rear view mirror, "Yes let's do it!"

Sticking my head out the window again, I yelled out. "Let's do it!" A bunch of "hell yeah" erupted from of the group as everyone fan to their cars, all the girls went to Nikki's truck while all the boys ran to Gage's car. Jack slammed his foot on the gas pedal and we shot forward onto the main road, my head was still outside the window. I took one last look at my father and pulled my head back in. He was freaking out, everyone else stared at us in aw.

As soon as we hit the road we sped off towards the house, when you thought someone pulled in first with someone else zoomed passed them. The neck and neck race between the three vehicles. The boys tried to take shortcuts but it only made them fall behind. But eventually they catch up to everyone else. We were the first ones to pull into the driveway, the girls were in second and the boys were in last.

Once I thought the race is over Jack side of the car as fast as he can and speeds off to the doorway. He was yelling at me to hurry up or I'll lose. In a hurry I unbuckled my seatbelt and open the car slammed it shut and started and in a hurry I unbuckled my seatbelt, open the car door only to slammed shut once I was out, and toke off to the house. Maddie and I were neck and neck in the middle of the lawn, but luckily all that training at the DWMA gave me more of advantage. I ran up the front steps and slammed my hand down on the green front door. Eventually everyone made it to the front door (but Alex was last, he hates running), and once we were in side everyone was our doing their own thing. Katie was baking a cake, Alexis was watching, Nikki was eating something form a Tupperware, tv while Maddie was reading. Tori was out of the house, as soon as she got in, to go visit her sister and mother at their house. The boys were in the basement playing video games, well not all the boys. Jack was sitting on the window seal, he was looking out into the darkness of the backyard. He look like he was thinking about something very serious but I couldn't tell what it was. I couldn't stop myself from staring at him, he just look so sexy. My mind started to wonder.

"Are you ok Maka? You have been staring at me."

That broke me out of my trance, "Yes, I'm fine."

"Can I talk to you else wear?"

"Sure," we both left the room and walked to the hall way. When we got into the hallway, he leaned the wall on his right side facing me. He stared at me with his deep brown eyes, I couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"Maka you knew those people who were watching you at the skating ring, didn't you?"

"Yes... They use to go the DWMA with me, one of them use to be my partner. But he left me for someone else, didn't Nikki tell you guys why I'm here?"

"She said you were having trouble at your old school but that all. What happen?"

I told him everything that happen to me, by the end of it I was almost in tears again. Jack pulled me into his arms, my hand was on top of his chest. His face was buried in to my hair. "He was my first love and he left me for someone else!"

"I'm sorry Maka, you're such a sweet girl. That shouldn't happens to you." The whole Time I told him what happen he kept hugging me and didn't let go. Somehow I just felt so right being in his arms, I felt safe and secure. I wish we could stay in each other's arms forever, but sadly we couldn't. The hug ended and put his hands on my shoulder. He looked into my eyes, he didn't need to say anything. He lift up my chin and leans in for a kiss, his lips where about to press mine. The closer I got to him the louder my heart would beet faster and faster. We were so close to kissing but someone stop us.

"Hey Maka come here!" Nikki yelled form the living room.

With a sigh we broke a part, he walked away a towards the stair case while I headed to the living room. Nikki was pointing to TV screen, Soul's and his group were on the news. I couldn't look at the screen, I didn't want to ruin the moment I had with Jack. I no longer carried about them or anyone, I was truly happy here with all my new friends.

"I no longer cared about them." I walked away from them and went into my room.

Time skip!

It was around midnight when I heard the noise, coming from kitchen. I first I thought it was just so in getting a lightning snack but it sounded like someone was sharpening knives. You got to the point where I can no longer stand hearing that noise so I got out of bed and we walked to the kitchen about to yell at the person who woke me up. But I stopped in leaned against the hallway so I won't be seen, is someone was outside on the front lawn sharpening a big knife. I had no clue why he was doing it all or who he was. There was another boy next to him sitting on the ground, they both are wearing all black. No one was talking, they were just staring at each other and the knife.

After a while the first boy stopped sharpening the knives and the other hopped up off the ground. They headed to the front door, my instincts kicked in and I followed. They never went to the car but instead they walked along the street. It was hard to see them but I was able to do it, they never looks back it but also helped that I crouched down low and stayed find the bushes or trees. They keep walking and walking, they look like they didn't have any idea where they were going. The whole time they walked, the first boy kept the knife in his hand being careful not to cut himself.

They came to a stop, the first one put the knife behind his back, just a head was Tori, and she was just coming home from her family's house. They talked for a little bit and then the first boy moves the knife from his back. He took the knife and stab her multiple times. I stared and horror, I couldn't move, I was stuck in my spot watching my friend getting murdered.

Her lifeless body hit the ground, both boys leaned over and started to see Tori so lift up from her body. Oh no they were going to eat her soul, they are a kishen! If there's ever any time I wanted to see Soul it would be right now.

My wish was granted, the distance I heard someone yell loud as they could. "Black Star!" With that Black Star came down form the air and hit one of the boys in the head. Everyone else soon showed up and started fighting the boys, I stayed in my hiding spot.

No matter how hard the group got the boys still managed to get away, they were gone I was able to realize everything that happened. Tori soul hadn't been eating, everyone was trying to figure out what happen, and I wanted was to get out of here. When I tried to move away they notice me.

"Makes?!" Someone yelled, wasn't paying attention. I was too busy staring at Tori lifeless body. I couldn't stop staring at it, I felt tears run down my cheeks.

"Tori..."
