Blazerules34: Yay, everyone seems to like my story! Here's the next chapter! Sorry it took so long, didn't have internet.
It was Sunday night. Saturday had passed by rather slowly. Boys had taunted me, even thrown small objects at me. I had seen Kid walk pass me, and I jeered at him for a change. "Hey, mayor's son. "I cheered as he walked by.
"Hey, bookworm. "He responded, looked at me with pity, and hurried on. "Coward. "I spat when he rounded the corner. Death the Kid had also been one of my friends, until, same with Soul, we drifted apart. He got caught up with school, and with Soul.
Black Star could often be heard yelling about his godliness. What Tsubaki saw in him, Death knows. Black Star I knew the longest out of everyone. And yes, he had always been that way. Sadly.
Something had gone on earlier this morning, and Soul came by now to tell me about it. "Your friends tried to get you back. "He stated immediately. I looked up. "I'm thirsty. "I complained. "We'll talk about that later, "He said dismissively. "I want to know why their after you. "
"Well, I'm not anti-social. "I drawled. "Maybe I'll talk if you get me something to drink…? "I looked up again. He sighed and left. He came back a few minutes later, holding an ice-cold bottle of water. I drank half of it.
"So…? "He prompted. "I'm friends with all of the girls. "I shrugged. Hands closed on my shoulders. "You're lying. "He stared me in the face. I was seriously starting to wonder how my contact lenses were doing. I mean, their only supposed to last the night… But it's dark here in the alley.
"Actually that's true. "I told him. Oh how I longed to Maka-Chop him… I haven't Maka-Chopped anyone since Soul and I became…. Un-friended. "Ok. Fine, I believe you. May I ask you a question first? "He asked, half turned away. "You just did. "I smirked, kind of amused. "Is Maka Albarn in your gang? "He ignored me and I would have done a spit take if I had something in my mouth.
My smirk grew wider. "She's leader. "I smirked and I saw his eyes widen before he turned away from me.
Time to escape.
Did I ever mention that the manacles attached to my hands had two fatal faults? No I don't think I did. 1. Is that I could easily pull them out from the wall. 2. Is that I can slip my hands out. Fail on their part. I mean, seriously. Our manacles are polished down to the last chain link.
So I just slipped my hands out around midnight. I knew my contacts had fallen out, so I could easily be identified. I slipped around the corner, prepared to fight with my bare hands.
Turns out they all went to some bar. And they left no guard, but they left a note. And my weapons were just lying on the ground. Boys are so sloppy.
"Oh, my precious, my baby. "I crooned and stroked my beloved scythe. I found my belt and my gun, which I tucked into my hoodie pockets. I couldn't find my knife, but oh well. I could just buy a new one. The owner of the weapons store where I buy my gang's weapons is friends with my mom. So no worries.
I just kind of walked out. No, seriously. Men.
I walked home, surprised to find my house close by. I unlocked my door, ate my leftover fried chicken, washed my makeup off, and promptly fell on my bed and fell asleep. I have school tomorrow after all.
I woke up at 6 A.M. I wasn't very happy about it. But, I couldn't be late. What would Soul do today? He wouldn't be very happy that I escaped, but he wouldn't know I escaped, he thinks I lead a gang, which I do, but he didn't know it was me. Wow I'm confusing myself.
Anyway, I put on my white shirt, yellow vest, and plaid mini skirt. I put my hair up in pigtails. I studied my face in the mirror a few minutes before I left. I wasn't bruised, but I looked… Tired. My eyes were sparkling, and I looked happy, but tired. No makeup for me.
As I walked, I thought about my life. Sweet girl by day, gang leader by night. Like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide. I used to love that story, who knew my life would be like that. Not that I'm not happy with my life, I'm extremely happy with it. It's just, now that I think about it, if my Papa and Mama hadn't divorced, where would I be?
I was way early to school. So early, the school doors were locked. I looked at my phone and swore under my breath. Only a quarter after 7. School started at 8. I would be able to look for my friends, and Soul. See where he waited, if he did at all. Maybe he wouldn't come to school today.
As people started filling up in the yard, I spotted Tsubaki with her boyfriend. I was a bit wary, but I walked over to her. As Maka Albarn, I had nothing to fear of Black Star. So I'm not going to fear him. "Hey Tsubaki! "I greeted cheerfully.
"Hey Maka-chan! "I saw her eyes widen slightly, and I gave her a look that said not now. Later. She nodded very slightly, not even noticeable to anyone except me. "Black Star, "I nodded at him, which, of course, set him off. "You do not nod at your God! You bow at him! Now bow for me, peasant! "He ordered, and people started staring.
I gave him the look. I may be a nice, sweet girl, but that shit don't fly (A/N: My favorite line.). And I'm not sure what I should do in this situation, but my gangster side was slipping through.
"No, "I said coolly. "What did you say to your God? "Black Star snarled, and Tsubaki was shaking her head at me. "I said no. And I will continue saying no. "I smiled sweetly at him. "Black Star, trust me, you don't want to push her- "Tsubaki started but was interrupted by an outraged Black Star. People were surrounding us.
"How dare you! You are supposed to bow to me! I am your God! You, little girl, are nothing but a bookworm! That's all you'll ever be! No man would love you! You barely have any boobs! You will die alone, and be forever haunted by my words. "Black Star shouted. I narrowed my eyes.
"Ok, listen up. I am not a little girl. I will not die alone, and I will not be haunted by your words because they mean nothing to me. "I snarled at him, and he started laughing. I put my hand into my bag. "Oh, Maka, please don't. "Tsubaki pleaded. "Sorry Tsubaki, I don't take this from anyone. Especially, not one from Blood Rush. "I hissed my last words so no one but Black Star could hear them.
I drew out my big gun, the star in my collection, my biggest book. It was hardcover. I jumped into the air, and slammed the book onto his head. Blood gushed out, and he got knocked out. I removed my book from his head, blew on it, and stuffed it back into my bag.
"This is why no one messes with Maka Albarn. "I smirked and walked into the open doors.
I settled into my fifth period class. "Well, well, well. Maka Albarn, "A voice said and I stiffened. Soul was sitting behind me, leaning forward, anger and delight glittering in his eyes.
"I've missed you. "He said.
Blazerules34: Well then. Good cliffhanger, right? What will Maka's reaction be? We shall see.
Soul: Will she ever stop asking questions we don't know the answer to?
Maka: Maybe, maybe not.
Blazerules34: Well, before I go murder Soul, Maka…?
Maka: Blazerules34 owns the idea of this story, Amaya, Mori, and that's it. The picture belongs to her friend Monique.
