AN: here's a chapter for you!
I don't own the song safe & sound by Tayler swift or soul eater (sad thoughts)
Ch 9:
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, "I'll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Don't you dare look out your window
Darling, everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby
Even when the musics gone, gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Just close your eyes
You'll be alright
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Soul turned quickly at the sound of Maka's voice, he walked over to the door and opened it. "Yes Maka?" he asked softly. The small women looked up at him, the fear in her eyes obvious. "I…I'm sorry about bravery… she's so much like you, probably why I care about her so much…" she mumbled, looking at her feet. The white kishen smiled softly and put a hand gently on her head, making her jump slightly. "It's alright Maka, she pisses me off to no end, but she protected you when I wasn't there." He said softly.
The meister looked up at him with the green eyes he had missed so much and nodded slightly. Soul put his hand on her cheek gently but frowned when she flinched. "I'm not going to hurt you, I would never hurt you." He said softly. "I may be a kishen but I'm not completely gone." He put his forehead on hers.
"But you have hurt me soul…" Maka said looking into his eyes. "You left me soul, you abandoned me, you abandoned your friends." She sniffed. "O god…I left them too….I left bs and kid!" she said and covered her mouth. "They could be dead and I would never know!"
Soul snapped up. "Do you care about them more than me?" he growled. Maka gave him a confused look. "Do you love one of them?" he pushed her against the wall. She turned her face away as tears fell from her emerald eyes. "Soul stop it." She whimpered and pushed him away. He blinked and frowned. "I'm sorry Maka, I'm sorry." He touched her cheek gently but she flinched away from him. "Don't touch me." She mumbled.
He gave her a hurt look then grabbed her hand and put it over his heart. "Look at my soul, Maka." He said in a pleading voice. She looked at him then his chest. His soul was a deep purple red, but it had the same droopy eyes and sharp teeth. "Kishen's souls alter completely, there's nothing left of their former self, I still have part of my soul." He said softly. "I'm not completely kishen."
Maka looked into his eyes. "I've never seen a soul like yours…how?" he shrugged. "Maybe we can turn you human again!" she gasped. "Then we might be able to save the others!" She smiled happily. "Maybe if I can get into the black room-" "No.." soul cut her off. "It's dangerous in there with Oni; I don't want him near you."
Maka frowned. "But you could become human again…I could get you back.." she said softly. Soul glared at her. "You have me back, I may not look the same but you still have me, isn't it enough? Or can you not love a monster? Has this become some sick version of beauty and the beast?" he snapped. "I want the real you back! I want my soul back!" Maka snapped back. "I AM THE REAL SOUL!" he roared. The blonde took a step back, her eyes full of fear.
The kishen sighed and pulled the delicate meister into a hug. "I'm sorry, Maka, I know I'm not the same, I don't think I ever will be, I can feel him eating away at me, Maka, I can feel my self slipping away, I love you Maka, even if you hate me, or if your terrified, I still love you and that will never change." He said in her ear, running his fingers thru her hair gently.
The meister trembled and tears fell onto Soul's shoulder. "I need in the black room Soul, it might be the only way I can get you back…" she breathed. Soul shook his head. "Oni will hurt you; I need to keep you safe…" he said softly. "Soul, please…" she hesitated then wrapped her arms around him and burying her face into his shoulder, breathing in his scent. Soul held her tighter. "I have to keep you safe…"
