Heyyo, Im back from the longish break. Sorry, I've had the idea forever, I just haven't wrote it down. Anyway, thanks for all the comments :) Enjoy!
I slowly regained consciousness, leaving my eyes closed. I could feel something warm against the left side of my body, and I cuddled into it without thinking. That is, until I realized what I was doing.
My eyes snapped open. Somehow I had got even closer to him, and my whole body was firmly pressed against his. My head was on his chest, and he had let go of my arm to hold my whole body against his. His face was buried in my hair. I weighed my options. I could pull away and get up, but that would run the possibility of waking him. But if I stayed still, he might wake up with me still in this position. I groaned in my head.
I slightly turned my head to see if I could get up, and felt Kid stir. I immediately closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep. I felt Kid slowly wake up, and heard his intake of breath as he realized our position. I kept my breathing slow, wondering what he would do. The seconds ticked by slowly, and I started to wonder whether he had fallen back to sleep. Then I heard him sigh, and he untangled his arms from around me. Then he picked me up as easily as a baby, and gently lay me down on the other side of the mattress. He lay back down on the edge of his side, and pulled the covers over both of us.
A few seconds ticked by. Then a minute. And still I waited, and waited, and waited.
Finally, I heard the slight humming sound Kid made when he was deep in sleep, and I was able to open my eyes. He was lying symmetrically strait, almost like he was in a coffin. I slowly sat up, and looked around the room. And the sight of my other friends made me want to giggle so bad I had to pick up my pillow and push it on my face to stay quiet.
To my right Soul had his neck buried in Maka's neck, and she had her arms around his chest. Their hair was mixed across the pillow, making a brown and white swirl on the pillow. Next to them Patty and Alex were completely splayed out, their limbs hanging off the mattress. Yet amount the chaos of their bodies and the tangled blanket, they still somehow found a way to hold hands. Almost across from us were Liz and Kyle, cuddled together so perfectly that any model would be jealous. And over Kid I could see BlackStar and Tsubaki. BlackStar was splayed out like Alex and Patty were. But he still managed to put his protectively arm around his weapon, who had her arm on his chest.
I smiled at the adorableness of them all. Then I got an idea. I slowly crawled over to my bag, and took out my camera. I had bought it a few days ago to take pictures of my friends, to remember them all. I needed something to have of them if I had to leave quickly. I turned it on, and slowly crept around, taking pictures on silent. Finally I was satisfied with the angles, and I turned it off and put it back in my bag.
I stretched, then padded into the kitchen, looking for a clock. The stove said it was only six in the morning. Considering how late everyone else had went to bed, I assumed they would sleep in late. I grabbed my shoes, looked at them, then left them at the door as I walked out.
I navigated the maze of streets, watching the silent city sleep away the morning. I got to the border, and kept walking, far out into the dessert. I walked for at least eight miles before I found a hill that seemed perfect for watching the sun rise. I sat in the sand, and focused in on myself.
I felt my soul, and finally took off the soul protect spell. I relaxed as I felt my soul burst out, growing and growing until it had gone back to it's normal size, about the size of DWMA. It felt so nice to let all of my power out, instead of containing it in the size of a human soul as big as my fist. I hadn't realized how tense I was until I was so relaxed.
I brought my hand in front of me, closed my hand into a fist. When I opened it, a spark danced on my palm. I smiled and played with it, making it dance across my palm. I slowly increased the exercise, first expanding it to the size of my fist, then tossing between my hands like a ball. I tossed it into the air, then made it burst into a thousand fiery splinters which shot into the ground all around me. Then I played with the smoke, making it thin and invisible and then thick and dark. It twisted like a snake with a snake charmer, and I shaped it into a flower, then a skull. I tried making BlackStar, but it just didn't look right without his blue hair. I smiled as it disappeared into the air, floating across the desert and dispersing into the wind.
I fell back into the sand, staring at the sky. Maybe this could work. I would take on mission, work hard in school, and appear to be a normal meister. And when I could sneak out some days and let out my power, and no one would ever have to know. I mean, Kou must be far away by now, right? It had been a month, he should have stopped looking for me by now. And even if he was looking, why would he ever suspect a place where witches where hated? No, he would have passed it by, and hopefully he was far enough away he couldn't see my soul.
I shook off the thought of my brother, and turned my thoughts to lighter things. Literally. I gathered my pent-up power and pushed it through my body, rushing like blood in my ears. And then I was burning, like a star against the morning sunrise as I used the fire to propel myself upward, flying into the sky. The wind whipped through my hair, and I laughed as I spun up, up into blue sky. I hadn't flown, really flown, since I left home. That's why it had felt so nice when Kid had let me be up in the sky again...
I shook off the thought of the young Death God and just flew. Up and up until I was amount the clouds, and I kept going, tunneling through them until all I could see was white beneath me and blue all around.
And then I turned off my fire and fell. I spread out my arms as I shot through the clouds, and then flipped over to see the imprint of my body in the sky. I flipped again so that I was facing the ground like a swimmer about to dive, and I rocketed down to earth. 50, 100, 200 miles per hour, racing to squish against the sand.
And within 20 feet of the ground I shot the fire through my hands and feet and I arced back upward, screaming and laughing with the excitement and danger. And I looked around at the sky-
and choked. Three black figures were racing over the sand towards me.
I froze.
Then I flew like hell. I had taken into account my evil brother, but I had forgot the soul perception of my friends.
Run child run! Hehe kesse. Anyway, I was bored of all the drama, I wanted some action. I want to send her on a mission soon... If she survives this, that is :P
