Me: Holy crap. Look at all those reviews. And just for the first chapter! Chrissyeatsmonsters and Neurochemicals you guys make me laugh.
Soul: Hey look at Mr. Popular. Pretty cool turnout.
Maka: Omg I'm so excited! Well we cant keep them waiting now can we?
Me: You're absolutely right Maka. Soul if you would please.
Soul: s0uleaterevans does not own Soul Eater or any of it's characters. He's not that cool.
Me: But I'm cool enough. So without further a due. Chapter 2 ^^
Chapter 2: The Game Plan
Maka's pov
I thinks something's wrong with Soul.
I cant put my finger on it but something is off with him.
He's tired often….well more than usual.
It almost seems as if he's losing himself.
Gah! What am I thinking. He's just being his same lazy self.
I need to sort my thoughts out.
Suddenly, I was startled out of my deep concentration.
"Oi Maka. You gonna finish your breakfast? It's getting cold." Soul had asked me.
"Oh. No I'm not really that hungry."
"Cool. Mind if I finish it? I love your cooking." he said with lustful eyes.
"It's not cool to overeat Soul." I said teasingly.
He shot me a glare.
"Shut up tiny tits. I'm the coolest guy in school and you kn-"
"MAAKAAAA CHOP!"
"Owww…never mind. Lost my appetite." he said, face still merged to the table.
I giggled a little at the sight.
"Alright then go get ready we are leaving for school in ten minutes." I told him.
"Yes mother." he shot me his signature smirk.
What a smart ass.
7 minutes later Soul came out of his room. Wearing his black jacket and orange shirt, grey pants, and dark grey shoes. His snow white hair was pulled back with the black hair band he always wore.
As for me. I wore the usual trench coat and plaid mini skirt. I also had my hair up in my signature pig tails. Its not easy making this look good when your 16.
"Why aren't you in your spartoi uniform?" he asked me with a questionable look.
"I was feeling nostalgic. What about you?" I asked him.
"Same." he gave me that toothy smirk I loved so much.
"Then why don't you wear that jacket and headband? I liked that outfit better." I told him.
"Yeah I thought about it. But then I remembered that it doesn't fit me anymore. I mean come on Maka. Its been a couple years since I was wearing that old thing."
"I guess you're right. Well lets get going."
And so we headed out of our apartment to his motorcycle. And drove off too school.
Soul's pov
Man. Why does she have to grip me so tightly whenever she's riding with me on my bike?
It puts a man in an uncool situation.
Part of me whishes she would grip tighter.
Another part doesn't want her touching me at all.
And that dream.
It still plagues me.
I cant believe I'm saying this, but I really hope I can get some alone time with Stein after school.
I need to know what the best path to take is.
Should I do as the demon says and take my relationship with Maka to the next level?
If I do that? Will she accept? Will she reject me?
Will she save me from my apparent fate?
Or should I not even try.
I mean if I do. She could get infected. And we could end up…..
I didn't even want to think about that damn nightmare right now.
We soon arrived at shibusen.
The shear size of the place always amazed me.
But right now I need to focus on getting through classes so I could have a sit down with Stein.
This is important.
No day dreaming.
I parked the bike in our usual spot and we hopped off.
"We better hurry or we will be late." my meister said with haste in her tone.
"Yeah yeah I'm coming." man she's such a pain sometimes.
"But she's your only hope you know." him already? What the hell.
"Look ogre now's not a good time. I'm trying to focus."
"So make a move already you idiot. she's right there!" the demon scolded.
"No. it's not the right time. Just be patient." I told him.
He let out an exasperated breath. "Fine have it your way." and with that his voice vanished.
Finally now I can think.
"Come on Soul. Hurry it up." Maka said in a annoyed tone.
"Don't get impatient princess I'm coming." I said sarcastically.
"Ugh. You're such an idiot."
"Tiny tits."
"Asshole"
"Bookworm"
"Moron"
"Would the two of you stop showing your love for each other and take your seats already. Class is beginning."
Both Maka and I looked up in surprise to find Stein sitting at his desk. Looking at us.
The entire class was looking at us. And laughing!
When the hell did we walk into the classroom?
Man not cool. Everyone is staring.
We both made our way to our seats. Heads hung low in shame.
Just not cool at all.
"Hahahahahaha. You guys got told. And by such a small person too."
That annoying ninja
"Shut up Black*Star. You get told by that screw head every single day of your life." I told him matter of factly.
"Yeah but you're nowhere as big as I am. So it doesn't really matter."
"Yeah whatever." I don't have time for this.
"Don't "yeah whatever" the man who will surpass god!" ok I'm ready to freaking knock him cold.
But I was too late.
Maka had already chopped him to limbo.
Man. She gave him a silent Maka Chop.
The deadliest of them all.
And only he received them.
That poor bastard.
"Alright everyone. Its time for class so listen up. We will be dissecting a rare species of bird today." Stein proclaimed with a sadistic smile.
This shit again?
Doesn't he ever change it up.
No need to pay attention I guess. I mean hell I've gone through this like ten times already.
But Maka's glare told me otherwise.
Great. Another wonderful day in the world of dissection.
Please let class end early.
Maka's pov
Ugh Stein and his damn dissections.
But I will not let either of us dose off from boredom.
My perfect grade depends on both of us participating.
After about and hour or so the bell for break rang. Signaling the end of our dissection part of class.
Thank god!
I'm so sick of seeing the inside of a bird.
A few moments after the bell had rang I noticed my partner getting up from his seat and walking down towards where Stein sat.
What the hell is he doing?
Soul's pov
"Hey Stein. Is it ok if I have a word with you after class? It's important." I told the screw headed professor.
"Sure Soul. This sure is a surprise. I hope its not about your grades."
"Like I care about that. No this is a serious matter. I will tell you more about it later." I told him in all seriousness.
"Interesting. I look forward to it." he said with that sadistic grin of his.
Man he creeps me out.
I made my way back to my seat.
"What did you want with Stein?" my meister asked me. She looked kinda worried.
"Nothing important. I just wanted to talk with him after class. Just some guy talk." I told her.
"Awww. Has Soul finally hit puberty?" she teased.
"Haha very funny." I replied with a smirk.
"Alright everyone back to your seats. Its time to continue with class."
After class I told Maka I would only be a few minutes.
"Just wait for me by the bike kay?"
"Alright. don't take too long. It's not cool to keep a lady waiting." she told me.
"Ha. You're no lady." bad move Soul.
"Maaakaaaa-"
"Wait don't it was just a joke." I said hurriedly.
"I know. Just scaring you." she teased.
"Oh you're evil."
"Yep." she giggled.
"Well see ya in a few minutes." I waved her off and made my way over to Stein.
We waited til all the students left.
"So. What is so important that you need to tell me? He asked.
"It's about this dream I had last night." and I told him everything.
From the dream with the ogre.
To the last scene of my nightmare.
"Hmm….very interesting. Well I can check to see if what the demon is telling you is true if you want. We will have run by my lab." he told me in a serious tone.
I hesitated and he notice.
"Don't worry. I'm not gonna cut you open. Just run some blood test. Take a small sample to do a diagnostic."
"Yeah ok. Sounds good. I will take Maka home first and then head to your place."
"Alright and Soul?" He asked as I was about to leave.
"Yeah?"
"Don't do anything I would…..yet. At least not until we figure out a good game plan."
That old pervert.
"Tch. Don't worry. Cool guys like me don't try things funny like that."
And with that I left to meet my meister at my bike.
We had just pulled up to our apartment complex and my meister jumped off.
"Are you sure about this Soul?" she asked me. She was worried I could tell.
"Don't worry Maka. He's not gonna try anything. And even if he does, he's no match for a cool Death Scythe like me."
"Yeah I suppose. So what time will you be home?"
"I will be home by dinner. It shouldn't take long."
"Ok have fun." she said teasingly.
"Yeah sure." I said giving her my toothy grin.
And I drove off.
It took me about ten minutes to get to Steins place.
This place looked just as gloomy as when we first came here on a mission to hunt and kill him.
The door opened and out came Stein on his chair.
Well. He crashed. As always.
"Jeez when are you gonna learn that it doesn't work. Not cool at all."
"Ah but where's the fun in that?" he said with his crazed grin.
"Whatever lets just get this over with."
And he lead me inside.
It had taken maybe 15 minutes for him to go through the procedure.
It was just has he said.
Just taking a small blood sample.
After about 30 minutes of waiting he came back out.
"It doesn't look good." he told me
"What? What do you mean?"
"Your blood is 46% black."
"So the demon was right." I said.
"Yes, except he was wrong about how much time you have left. Based off of my test the black blood will completely consume your veins in 3 short months."
"WHAT?" I couldn't believe this.
"And it gets worse. Unless we find a way to suppress it. Your sanity will slowly deteriate."
Great. Not only am I on a time limit. But I'm fighting to keep sane too!
"So what should I do doc?" I asked him.
"Exactly as the demon suggest."
"You really think that's gonna work?" I asked him in disbelief.
"Its logical. Her anti-demon wavelength is strong and if you two do become closer emotionally than her soul's wavelength will have a greater effect on you. It's how Marie has been able to keep me sane all this time."
Hold on.
"Since when have you and Marie been "together"? I asked
"Well. We aren't really "together" so much as "closer". he clarified.
"Right. Whatever. So what now?"
"We come up with a game plan." he said with a mischievous smile.
"What the hell are you talking about?" I ask confused.
"Just be quiet for a moment and let me think." he said.
A few moments pass.
"I got it! Ok so here's how it goes…."
** Me: Oh boy this story is getting juicy. I cant wait to write the next chapter!
Soul: What the hell is that sadistic screw head planning?
Maka: I'm a little scared.
Me: You should be.
Soul: You know already?
Me: Maybe.
Soul: You're just as bad as Stein. Change your name right now!
Me: Like hell I will! I'm as much a cool guy as you are you big softie.
Soul: Not cool at all man.
Me: Well thank you all for reading and I hope everyone liked it. I know this 2nd chapter may have been a little boring. I will try to throw in some excitement in the next one.
Soul and Maka: Review or we will take your soul!
