As soon as they were in the kitchen, Maka rounded on Blair. "Have you figured out how to undo it yet?" she asked, fear lacing her voice. As cute as Soul was as a puppy, she knew he couldn't stay that way forever.

Blair shook her head. "No. Bu-tan has not."

She growled lightly as she grabbed Blair by the collar of her shirt. "Find a way to fix this, now!"

"N-nya! If Bu-tan knew how she would but Bu-tan doesn't know how!" As all of this was going on, Soul was still chewing on Maka's boot, wagging his tail happily as he did.

"You need to figure this out soon Blair. I'm afraid he will be like this permanently if we don't do something soon," she sighed, walking out of the kitchen. "Soul!" she yelled, running over to him as she saw him chewing up her shoe. When she got to him, Soul picked up the boot with his mouth and offered it to Maka with his tail still wagging happily. She sighed. She couldn't be mad at him. She took the boot and crouched down in front of him. "Soul, you can't chew on my shoes," she scolded gently.

He put his tail between his legs and pouted a bit. "I'm sorry Maka."

"It's okay Soul, just don't do it again," she sighed, pulling him in for a tight hug. Soul hugged her tightly but keep his tail between his legs. She released him and petted him, trying to make him feel better.

He smiled a bit. "What was Maka talking about with Blair?" he said as he cocked his head.

"Nothing much. Just asking if she knew how to undo her spell yet," she smiled, picking him up. "Do you want to go on a walk?"

He smiled as his tail began to wag. "Yes!"

"Okay," she smiled, walking to the closet to grab her jacket. "Blair, we're going on a walk! Maybe you should go talk to Stein!" she called before leaving. Once Maka opened the door, Soul began to run out of the apartment, eager to explore as Blair went to Stein to see if they can fix the spell. "Slow down!" Maka yelled, chasing after him. She didn't mind him exploring, but she was afraid that she would lose track of him, and that thought terrified her. Soul ignored her and continued to run, wagging his tail happily as he did. She saw him nearing the street and she felt her heart clench in fear. "SOUL!" she screamed, running faster to catch up with him. Soul stopped and turned to look at her as he cocked his head in curiosity. She caught up to him, embracing him as she tried to catch her breath. "Don't run off like that again! Okay?"

He nodded. "But why not Maka?" His tail wagged quickly. "It was fun!"

"I was afraid I was going to lose track of you or that you were going to get hurt!"

He licked her face. "I won't get lost or hurt Maka."

"I don't know that though Soul, I love you and don't want you getting hurt!" she cried, not realizing that she admitted she loved him.

Soul hugged her tightly. "I love you too Maka." He did not know what it truly meant or what way she meant it. She smiled, liking the sound of him saying I love you to her even though it wasn't the same way. She would forever keep that in her memory. "Let's go to the park now," she smiled as she let him go. He smiled as his tail wagged quickly and walked with her to the park. "Want to go run?" she asked as she crouched down in front of him. She figured letting him get some of his extra energy out would be a good thing.

Soul nodded happily. "Yea!" he said as he got ready to run.

She took him over to the little trail that circled around the park. "Okay! Ready? Set? Go!" she yelled and they both took off. Soul ran beside her happily, but when he saw she was starting to go faster than him, he dropped to all fours and began to run faster. She giggled as she saw him speed past her, so she picked up her pace, determined to not lose him. He looked back and tried to go faster but failed, letting her pass him. She slowed her pace down slightly, not wanting to overtake him too much. Soon Soul stopped, too tired to continue, and started to pant hard. She saw that he stopped and she turned around, jogging to him. "You okay?"

He nodded. "I'm just tired Maka."

"Okay," she smiled, picking him up and carrying him to the nearest picnic table. Soul sat on the table still panting but he was happy he was outside still. Maka climbed on top of the table, lying back to look at the clouds drift by. She still had many worries, but she enjoyed the time she was having right now. Soul crawled on top of her and did the same. She giggled as she saw him curl up on her. He was so adorable like this. Soul yawned and fell asleep on her, snuggling her as he did. She stroked his hair, humming lightly. This was so peaceful and she was enjoying it. She began wondering if Blair had any luck with Stein. Soul's leg twitched a bit in his sleep as he growled. She smiled at him and she couldn't help but wonder what he was dreaming about. He turned onto his side in his sleep and barked. She giggled and squeezed him to her before her eyes drifted shut.

"My Maka." Soul mumbled. "No one touches my Maka." Her eyes cracked open and she looked at him, wishing that she really was his Maka. An errant tear rolled down her cheek as she knew that that would never be a possibility. Soon Soul woke up to see her shed a tear and cocked his head in confusion. "Why is Maka crying?"

She squeaked seeing him awake before burying her face into his fur. "It's nothing Soul, no need to worry," she whispered. He nodded but looked at her worriedly. "No need to worry Soul, I'm fine, I promise," she smiled. She sat up, petting him as he was curled up on her lap. "Should we head back home now?" He nodded and wagged his tail a bit as he jumped off the table. She smiled and hopped off the table, following him as he ran around in circles, waiting for her to lead him back to the apartment. Soul wagged his tail happily and barked at her playfully. "You are so cute!" she squealed, walking in front of him to lead him home. He looked at her curiously as they walked when she said that. She just smiled at him as they reached the front door. She unlocked it and he darted in, heading towards her bedroom to make a nest for himself in her covers. When he was done he saw his tail wagging and began to chase it. When she walked into her room and saw him chasing his tail, she couldn't help but to giggle at how adorable he was. When he heard her giggle he stopped, looked at her and cocked his head to the side on confusion.

"You don't have to stop on account of me," she laughed, walking over to scratch behind his ear. He closed his eyes and pushed his head up into her hand. She smiled at him and continued scratching behind his ears until he fell asleep. It was then that she heard the door creek open and Blair entered the apartment.

Blair found Maka in her room and smiled a bit at the sleeping Soul. "Bu-Tan found a way for Soul to turn back to normal." Maka just grumbled, not aware of what was going on. "Pum-pum-pumpkin pumpkin pumpkin!" she chanted as she shot a spell out of her fingers.

The cat's magic turned Maka into a fox as Soul slowly came out of the room. "Maka?"

She yawned and sat up, noticing that she was in a heap of fabric. "What the?" she asked, trying to move out of bed but finding it harder to do.

Soul helped her out of it and tackled her "Maka!" he said happily as his tail wagged quickly.

"Hey," she smiled, reaching out to pet him. It was then that she noticed that her arms were shorter than she remembered. "Do I look different to you?" she asked curiously. He nodded and pointed at her fox tail and ears.

She looked at her swishing tail in horror as she felt her ears. "Wha-what?!" she shrieked, panic taking over her.

He looked at her curiously. "What's wrong Maka?"

"H-how did I become a fox?!" she cried.

He shrugged, "I don't know but I think Maka looks cute," he said as he blushed.

She blushed bright and looked at him. "You think I look cute?" He nodded and looked down to hide his blush.

She crawled over and touched his cheek. "No need to hide," she smiled. He just turned around as he blushed more.

She turned him around to look at him. "No hiding."

"W-Why not?~"

"I don't want you to hide from me."

He nodded. 'Okay."

"Good," she smiled. "Now, we will get through this together," she promised.

He looked at her curiously. "Get through what Maka?"

"You being turned into a puppy and me into a fox."

"I wasn't always a puppy?"

She gulped, she figured he knew this already. "No Soul, you were human, well as human as possible, before you got turned into a puppy by Blair's spell." He cocked his head in confusion.

"It was an accident that you got turned into a puppy. You and I were humans. I am a meister and you are a weapon," she explained carefully. "Blair tried doing a spell on you but it backfired, making you into a puppy. I'm assuming that the spell that turned me into a fox was intended to change you back into a human."

He nodded but was still confused. "I knew that…" he said trying to make it sound like he wasn't completely ignorant.

She smiled softly at him before resting her hand on his cheek. "We will get through this together, okay?"

He nodded. "Okay."

She lied her head against his shoulders, feeling sleepy again. "We can do this," she murmured. He blushed again as he stared at her. She fell asleep leaning against him. He blushed harder as he laid down with her.

Blair walked in as they slept and cooed, wrapping them in a blanket so they could sleep better. "Night my kittens. Sleep well," she purred, turning off the light and shutting the door. Soul unconsciously cuddled closer to her. Maka snuggled him too, prepared to face life with him when she awoke.
