AN: Hey~! I have nine followers, seven favourites and six good reviews. Thank you so much, although if I tell Kiddo-kun about this, he would be depressed –since there's no eights-. In this chapter I'll give you a little time skip and also a song you might wanna listen to~! It's called Naraku no Hana from Higurashi anime –or it can be Higurashi second opening. Back to business. In some later chapters I will try to do a bit more SoMa, TsuStar, and PatLizKid, K?
A sound soul
Dwells within a sound mind
And a sound body
Soul's P.O.V.
It's been a little over two weeks since… the ancient happened. Me and Blackstar were getting the hang of taking care of Kid. His speech was getting better, he sounded better too. But he was mad that he couldn't speak 'formally' yet. Although he still can't move at all, which pissed him off. Maka and Tsubaki always came to visit after school, telling us how Stein almost dissected Ox for hitting on Kim in the middle of class and that sort of stuff.
As for Liz and Patty, they would visit from time to time but even then that was for about two minutes or less. I could tell from the way he acted after the visit that Kid not only misses them but felt alone after, like we locked in a dark room and never opened the door again. Maka told me that Liz and Patty are scared to tell their meister the fact that he will never be their meister again and that's why they avoid them. I understand, but that still doesn't give them a reason to never see Kid.
"Soul?" I snapped out my thoughts and turned to Kid. "Yeah, what's up?" I asked him. "Where did that idiot? I haven't seen him all day" I was going to ask 'which idiot' then I knew he was talking about Blackstar.
"Oh Blackstar? He went for a walk around the school, ya know, to say 'hi' to Maka, Tsubaki" I was going to say 'Liz and Patty' as well but thought best if I didn't. Kid looked out the window and said, "Oh ok." I sighed and got back to what I was meant to be doing, doing the quiz Stein gave the class. Since both Blackstar and I were taking care of Kid, we would skip all of our classes but get tests and stuff like that. It pissed me off but Maka would help me out, which was cool of her.
"Your star is back!" Blackstar yelled, great, just what I need to walk in. Why not Maka, why?
"How are Liz and Patty?" Kid asked bluntly, Blackstar looked surprized at Kid. So he did talk to them? How the hell did he know that? I told he might be talking to Maka and Tsubaki but… I don't even know. Blackstar open his mouth but Kid spoke, "Don't try telling me you didn't speak to them, I know you did, now answer my question, how are Liz and Patty?" He hissed at him. "They say they're alright but I think they miss you-"
"Don't lie to me, I know they couldn't care less even I were dead" Kid finished. I didn't know what to say to that, same with Blackstar. So for the rest of the day, we stayed in silence. It wasn't till the bell rang that me and Blackstar left, we told Kid we will be back.
Kid's P.O.V.
Alone, that's the meaning of my life. I was never meant to have friends in the first place. Father told me if I friends then I would have to watch them die as I live on for God knows how long. Maybe Liz and Patty not coming back is God's way saying my father is right. Even when I see them, all they want is to leave the room. Soul and Blackstar left about two minutes ago. I wonder if my tears will dry before the comeback. I heard they door open, how are they back that fast. But it wasn't them.
It was Liz and Patty.
Liz's P.O.V.
It feels like years since last we saw Kid, but it was just about eight days ago since last we seen him. I saw him in tears as he looked away from us. I guess we dissevered it. I have been avoiding seeing Kid for as long as possible, mainly cause it hurts us to see him. But Soul told me what he said today which made me drag Patty here. I walked over to him and said,
"Kid, I'm sorry about the last few days. I hate see you like this and both me and Patty find it hard to leave you here after. I can't for your forgiveness but can I ask you to forgive Patty. I choose not to see you, Patty just followed"
Kid looked at me with the same face he had when we walked in. His eyes were dull but not lifeless, just miserable. I was the only one to blame for this, it's not Kid's fault he's like this. I shut my eyes and cried and started blaming myself in front of him.
"I'm sorry, I was being selfish and didn't want to see you in pain. I should be here by your side but instead I'm running away. I deserve to go back on streets." I continued this until I felt a shaky hand on my face. I opened to see Kid in tears and his hand touching my face, h-he can move!?
Kid looked at me with his glowing yellow eyes filled with tears and said, "I forgive you, now please stop talking about yourself that way, you sound lot like me when I have a fit over symmetry" He finished, trying to smile. I cried and hugged my meister, who I missed since that day he got himself in here. Patty soon joined the hug and we all cried together.
Maka's P.O.V.
A few minutes ago, Soul told me what he and Blackstar did. They told me how Kid felt and that they told Liz and Patty and how Liz dragged Patty to see Kid. And now me and Tsubaki were peeking through to see them all together again, happy but in tears. I couldn't help but smile, I saw their souls connect again. Strong like before. Although I remember Kid didn't get the news yet, that he will no longer be a meister nor a Shinigami, Shinigami-sama still haven't thought of a way to tell him yet.
I walked in with Tsubaki, I smiled at them and they smiled back. A few minutes the other two came back with Crona. We talked the rest of the day away, like nothing happened, like everything was normal. It wasn't till Patty started yawning that I realized how late it was. Everyone but the boys were leaving. I kissed Soul bye and walked off, Blair wasn't going to be home, she was with Papa tonight. I was going to be alone tonight… again. I sighed and continued to walk home. I missed Soul being at home but at the same time I understand, I mean Kid is recovering and he has to take care of him. But still, I love him… I mean miss him.
Blackstar's P.O.V.
I could tell Kid was proud of the big star today. His stupid smile didn't wipe off his face until he when to bed. Soul and I were sitting in the room, in silence since his 'highness' needs beauty sleep. I was bored so I got up and walked out, this was boring and the great Blackstar was hungry. I continue until I felt something grab my arm, it was Soul.
"Where are you going?" He asked, looking at him as if I did something wrong. "Somewhere with food and games, this is boring your god. I wonder if Tsubaki is in bed or having dinner yet." Shit, did I say that out loud? I guess I did by Soul's grin.
"Tell ya what? We will go get food and tomorrow we will set up an Xbox or something." Soul said, keeping his grin.
"HELL YEAH NOW YOU'RE SPEAKING GOD!" I yelled. Me and Soul walked towards to a café somewhere out of the school.
Kid's P.O.V.
I woke up from my dream to see that I was alone. "Soul! Blackstar! Where are you morons!?" I called, no reply. I sigh and try to sleep again until I heard a smash. What were they doing? I wanted to see what was going on but my legs couldn't. I soon heard a scream, Liz's scream. My eyes widen, I-I had to something! Fine out what the hell is going on! I tried to move but failed. I jumped when something smashed through the door, Liz and Patty. Patty was covered in blood and also in Liz's arms unconscious, Liz was also in blood but she was wide awake.
"KID! HELP US!" She yelled, but before I could reply. Soul ran through the door, licking his lips when he saw Liz and Patty, did he do this? Soul ran towards Liz with his bladed arm and grabbed her. Liz screamed again, what the hell was going on? Why is he doing this!?
"KID SAVE PATTY, I DON'T CARE IF YOU CAN'T SAVE ME BUT LOOK AFTER HER!" Liz looked at me with eyes in pain and sorrow. Before I could move –even though all I can move is an arm, but even that's almost impossible to do- Soul looked at Patty and silt her in half. I looked at my younger weapon with confusion, sadness and shock with eyes covered in tears. Liz was speech until she saw me.
"HOW COULD YOU!? SHE WAS YOUNG AND SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR! YOU'RE NOTHING MORE THAN WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT! DEATH THE KID, I HATE-!" Before she finished Soul…killed her.
I woke up in at state of shock and panic. The room was just like my dream, it had no Blackstar and… Soul. I tried to calm myself down, telling myself it was dream, Soul would never hurt my weapons, and Liz is at home with Patty asleep. It worked until I heard a smash, I felt the colour on my face drain. How is this happened? I try moving but I could only move my right arm, which gave me an idea.
I grab the side of my bed and dragged myself towards it. Then I pushed myself up in a sitting position -which hurt like hell-. I pushed through the pain and grab the pole which hold the IV fluid in and stood up. Well tried to at least, I fell on my knees. But I soon got up again and slowly started to walk. My legs wobbled while I walked, making me crash into many things. The room was soon a giant mess, I sighed and walked –well wobbled- out of the room.
Dream or not, I had to check on Liz and Patty, as their meister it is my job to make sure nothing happens to them. I continued to walk, thinking about my nightmare, what Liz said… would she ever say such things to me if that ever did happen? Tears stung my eyes just from thinking about it.
Soul's P.O.V.
"God damnit Blackstar, why did you break the vase?" I hissed at my blue haired friend. "It's dark! I can't see shit!" He hissed back at me, I could still here the sound of the smashed vase through the halls of the Shibusen. If Kid wakes up by this and freaks out, I will personally hit Blackstar at the back of his brainless head. We continued to walk to the Infirmary quietly, I yawned so much my jaw started to hurt. I was tired and wanted my bed back but I still had a bloody job to do so that's sucks.
We finally got to the room and walked in quietly to- "HOLY SHIT WHERE IS KID!?" I yelled, the room was a big mess and Kid wasn't here! If Lord Death were here and saw this, my head would have been reaper chopped by now. "WE HAVE TO FIND HIM BEFORE ANYONE ELSE DOES!" I shouted, pointing out the obvious. "Wait! Don't you see!? Kid got kidnapped!" He could be right, Kid can't walk and the room is messed up.
"We need to get going before it's too late!" I told Blackstar, who nodded and followed me. We ran up the hall towards the entry when we saw a wobbly figure. It was Kid, Blackstar ran to Kid and I followed. Kid looked like he got hit by a train. He was sweating, wobbling, panting, he looked tired, he couldn't stand straight and he looked like he was going to collapse any second.
"Kid what are you doing?" I asked the young Shinigami. Kid looked at me with wide eyes as if I killed someone and I asked him 'can I kill you next?' Soon he eyes rolled and he almost dropped dead on the floor, luckily Blackstar caught him just in time. Blackstar stood back up holding Kid bridal style, he started walking and I follow with the pole-thingy -that was attached to Kid- in my hand as it drag along the floor. Kid started to come around as we walked.
"Stop, I need to check on Liz and Patty" He struggled to say.
"No you don't, I don't know why the hell you 'need' to see them now but they're fine. I promise" Blackstar said looking straight ahead, walking back to the room. When we got there, Kid was asleep again and Blackstar put him back in bed. Soon Blackstar fell asleep on the floor while I stay awake. I couldn't help but think about the way Kid looked at me back there. Was he… scared of me? I'll ask him in the morning.
