A/N: Alright! New Chapter Time! :D Let's goooo!
Chapter 2; Patty's Story
I was standing outside of Shibusen Academy and….. Well the place was fucking huge! And trust me; I have seen some big houses. This place wasn't a school, it was a fucking castle! I am pretty sure I stood there with my eyes bulging out of my head and my jaw on the floor for like ten minutes. I probably would have stood looking uncool like that if a beautiful, ash blonde with the longest legs in the world, and fireworks in her green eyes hadn't walked around the corner.
"You must be new here." She said with a superior smirk on her face.
"Yeah, how'd you guess?" I put as much sarcasm in my voice as I could.
"I know because you have it written all over your face, newb." She laughed maniacally and began to walk away. Being the cool guy that I am, I decided to make peace with her.
"Yo, wait, what's your name?" I called after her.
"Not that I don't like you kid, but I dislike your kind." She snarled at me. Is this chick for real? Jeez, I thought she was actually pretty cool, but now I just don't know.
"Just because I have red eyes, sharp teeth, and white hair doesn't mean I have a kind!" I snarled right back.
"Not that, you Neanderthal, I meant the cool popular boy kind," She said, speaking slowly like one would with a toddler. I was in too much shock to reply back. This girl has to be the first to completely dismiss my appearance and instead dislike me because of my social status. Thinking about it, maybe that isn't such a good thing. All my life I had been judged because of my appearance. Everywhere I went, people would take one look at me and, even though they didn't say anything, I could see how afraid they were. This girl though, she just stood there, half glaring and half bored, not a trace of fear to be found,
"Can I go now?" She asked. I opened my mouth to say something and hoped to death that it wouldn't sound like a cracking 12 year old boy's voice.
"Wait, what's your name?" Good, it sounded smooth and cool.
"Maka, where were you?" Maka flinched as the brunette from earlier appeared next to her. She still had they haunted look about her, but as she looked from me to Maka, it made way to a mischievous smile. "Oh, I see where you were. Sorry to interrupt, but who is this Maka, and why haven't you introduced me to him?"
"Liz, I don't know who the hell this kid is and you haven't been introduced because I was about to leave." She all but yelled at Liz.
"My name is Soul Eater, and I take it that you are Elizabeth?" I turned my prince charming smile up to full blast as I grabbed Liz's hand and lightly kissed her knuckles. He turned bright red.
"Y-yeah, my name is E-Elizabeth Thompson, but you can just call me Liz." I released her hand and bowed.
"It was a pleasure to meet you Liz." I turned to look at Maka and found that she had been glaring daggers at me throughout the entire exchange.
"Soul is it? Can I talk to you in private?" She didn't wait for an answer before she grabbed my hand and dragged me away. I looked back to see if Liz was okay, but she was passed out on the floor, blood dripping from her nose. It works every time.
"What do you want to talk to me about Maka? Are you just jealous?" I teased.
"Shut up you idiot!" She shouted. "I don't like players Soul, and right now, you are playing with Liz." Her green eyes were hard with anger. I wonder what they look like when she smiles.
"Yeah, well, maybe you should have talked to me instead of bitching like your PMSing." I muttered.
"What. . Just. Say?" Uh oh. I hadn't thought she had heard me. Her eyes narrowed into slits and I saw her hand reach into her bag. This is it, I thought, this crazy chick is going to knife me. I closed my eyes and prepared myself. "MAKA CHOP!" I opened my eyes, about to question why she was referring to herself in third person when I was cracked on the head with a Trigonometry text book.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" I screamed, clutching my head in agony. Liz appeared, seemingly out of nowhere and was laughing over Maka's shoulder.
"Watch your back Sharky, because this kitten has claws, and she sharpens daily." Liz said through her laughing. Even in pain with her laughing, I couldn't help but notice how pretty she was when she was smiling, without the haunted look on her face.
"So Liz, you had been looking for me?"
"Oh yeah," And haunted is back, "There I still no news on Patty." Patty, why does that name sound so-
"Patty Thompson?" I blurted out before I could think. They both looked at me, eyes wide.
"You know her?" Liz asked excitedly.
"Short blonde hair, blue eyes, psychotic?" They both nodded excitedly, hitting me with a book had been forgotten. "She plays bass and does the lead female vocals for my band." They looked completely awe struck.
"When was the last time you saw her?" Maka asked, very serious.
"Last practice, I think it was Saturday." Her eyebrows shot up.
"Are you serious?! Please tell me you're not joking, please." Liz had grabbed my arm.
"I'm not, jeez. Why is it so important?" I asked, looking at them.
"Soul, Patty has been missing for over a year now, and nobody has seen her. The police even did an official search but nothing came up. She has been officially presumed dead. Liz has been hoping something would come up, and she was about to give up hope of ever seeing her little sister again." Maka explained in a gentle voice.
"Well, I am pretty sure that the Patty Thompson in my band is the one you guys are looking for, but don't get too excited. There is something else you should know."
"What?" Liz was on the verge of tears.
"The story of how we found Patty." I looked over and they nodded for me to continue. "My best friend Black Star and I had been walking to my house after practice, and there was a rustling in the forest. It was getting dark, so it was creepy to say the least. Anyways, Black Star had dared me to go into the forest and see what it was. I had walked into the brush and heard the rustling again, but this time it had been a few feet in front of me. I had seen a small clearing up ahead, along with a large shadow inside of it.
"When I pulled back the branches, I saw a small girl. She was huddled in a fetal position, crying softly. Being the cool guy that I am, and cool guys don't let girls cry, I walked up to her and asked her what was wrong. She had answered me that she didn't know. When I looked at her, I realized that her clothes were tattered beyond any hope of decency or repair, not to mention it was winter, so I had shrugged off my jacket and let her wear it.
"I asked her what she meant by she didn't know, and she answered, saying that she couldn't remember why she was here, but she knows that something bad had happened." I paused and looked up at Liz. She was pale and there were tears streaming down her face. I figured that there was going to be a lot more explaining going on so I stopped the story for now.
"Soul, what happened?" Maka pressed, wanting to hear the rest of the story.
"Come on; let's go somewhere we can talk comfortably. My place isn't far from here." And with that I took off towards my house.
