Chapter 10

Disclaimer: I don't own Soul Eater but I do own Mizuko so please don't steal!


Kid's P.O.V.

I quickly made it to the apartment complex. I went up the stairs past Maka's floor and up to the apartment that Mizuko told me she lived. I was about to knock on the door when it opened and Mizuko's small face peeked out.

Come in she told me. I stepped in and looked around. I was amazed at the sheer number of books. I could have sworn that she has more books than most libraries. Tea? Mizuko asked. I turned around and saw her coming out of a small opening in the wall that obviously lead to the kitchen. She was carrying a big tray with tea and snacks.

"Have you read all these books?" I asked

Almost I haven't read the Odyssey,The Iliad, The Elements, and Pride and Prejudice. She answered pointing to the books as she named them. I looked at her in shock. How had a seven year old manged to complete such a large number of books in her short life time and how was she reading such advanced books? Even the majority of the seniors struggled to read such books such as The Elements.

I am able to read one of these books in approximately half an hour. I also remember everything I have ever experienced. Mizuko said reading my mind.

"How did you get all these books?" I asked

I help out at a book store and he pays me with books and I also use the spare money I get form your father. He gives me way to much for just me.

"How do you speak in our minds?"

I send my brain waves into your mind so I am pretty much controlling your thoughts when I speak. Lets sit down shall we? I assume you wish to ask me plenty of questions. We both sat down on her couch and I began asking her what I wanted to know.

"How long have you been able to speak like this?"

I have been able to do so since the day I was born. It gave mother quite a shock.

"Have you ever talked to your dad?"

No, he is a pervert and untrustworthy. I could tell that from the day I was born too.

"How do you read minds?"

Every thought you have sends out electric pulses. I simply have a strong enough mind that I can feel them and understand them.

"How come you live on your own and not with Maka and Soul?"

After my mom left at the age of 5 I stopped being able to trust people besides the ones I already have and that haven't let me down. But can you really blame me? My own mother left a 5 year old girl with an irresponsible drunk. If I can't trust my own mother to stay I can't trust anyone anymore.

"Oh, well I am out of questions for now," I said.

I now have a couple questions for you. Why do you think I trusted you in the beginning?

"I have no idea."

I saw how much Maka liked you and how you were always there for her. She would rely on your strength through the toughest times and you had no hesitation being her support. I trusted you because of Maka and for Maka. If I hadn't spoken to you she would have thought you were untrustworthy and stopped being friends with you but she needed your friendship so trusted you with her. I looked at her emerald eyes. She trusted me for Maka's sake and not her own? What about her own sake?

I am different and always will be. I will never be understood so I will never find a reason to trust for my own sake. Anyway my second question to you is do you like Maka as more than a friend? I felt my cheeks go red with that question.

"Yes," I mumbled

I am glad. I will trust you not to hurt her. I truly believe that you two are meant to be together.

"Wait, does she like me too?" I asked hopefully.

I know she likes you as a friend but you'll have to figure out if she likes you more than a friend yourself, I refuse to tell you the answer. Now you better get home Liz and Patti are worried. I looked at my watch and saw it was a quarter til 6.

"Thank you for inviting me over but I really must go now," I said as I hurried out the door. When I got outside I summoned my flying skateboard Beelzebub pondering what the strange little girl had said to me.


I am so sorry I took so long to update I have been reading Fruits Basket (which is extremely awesome by the way so if you haven't read it read it now at ) and I have been using the time I usually use to write.

Please review I really like to know how to make my writing better.
