Don't Dissever My Soul

Chapter 14

Maka's eyes flew open in panic as she felt herself shifting out of reality. She was in a painfully bright room, and a loud ringing ran through her ears. Her injuries were still visible, and as horrid as ever. Scarlet blood crusted around her legs and terrible gashes festered beneath her worn skirt. But she felt nothing. She stood up and took in her surroundings.

She let out a cry of horror and placed her shaking hand over her mouth. She was in Asura's bedroom. Flashbacks of pure discomfort and fear returned to her and brought her to her knees. This was where it had all started. The events in this room had ruined everything from her. It had taken her away from Soul.

"Welcome home my dear, sweet Maka," a voice of filthy charm called to her, hanging delicately on every word.

Maka's shoulders tensed as she turned with agony towards the voice behind the shadows.

"Silly Maka...Did you really think this would end just by killing me? No, trust me; I was planning this birth since long before you even knew of me. The end of my destruction is the beginning of hers."

His words stung her frozen frame like daggers. So it's a girl... But she could not breathe any words just yet.

He approached her from the darkness and put his gorgeous hand on her cold cheek. "Don't think I didn't enjoy it though...I mean, there's a reason I chose you. Your beauty and spirit is so...fascinating to me...you might say that I…love you..." He laughed deeply, with an edge of insanity.

"No. That was not love. Nowhere near it." She spoke with her fists clenched.

He laughed again, "Perhaps not. But get used to me sweetheart, you're back for good now."

She stood her ground as he ran his long fingers through her tangled hair. "No. I will not be taken advantage of again."

"Mmhmm," he sighed as he began to brush her neck with his lips. His touch was gentler than before, but she paid no mind to it.

"You are nothing!" Her head shot up and looked him straight in the eyes. She was answered by his laughter yet again. She slapped him in the face with every ounce of her strength. He smiled even bigger and continued with his light affections.

Puzzled by his softness, but angered by his mocking, Maka was put in a state of confusion. She stood dazed for a moment as he continued kissing her neck, though she could just barely feel his lips.

He then leaned towards her ear in a lingering, teasing motion and whispered, "I can't wait to see how that weapon of yours fares alone against our little Kishin."

Maka reached her boiling point and swiftly jabbed Asura in the stomach. He leaned over in pain, but kept his insane smile plastered across his face.

"I can't wait to watch him die by the hand of his true love's child!" He spat these words in her face, encouraging more blows.

She continued punching and kicking the Kishin, pushing him back towards the wall. She seemed to have extreme strength over him, despite her weak appearance. But he never lost his smile.

In the end, Asura's only weapon was his mind. He could feign madness to throw her off a bit, but he was weak nevertheless. He had never imagined she would have the strength to ever stand up to him after all he had put her through. And she truly wouldn't have been if Soul had not been there to keep her head in check every day. Soul had shown her the power lying within her. Her strength, her hope, and her perseverance could not be lost when Soul Eater Evans was there.

She gave one more hit to his head and watched him disappear into smoke before her eyes. Then the whole room evaporated and she was alone in the dark once more. This time, free of all injuries, but floating freely in the shadows.
