Chapter 6
Death the Kid
Last time…
But, there was someone sitting there. A boy in a black suit. He had a white shirt underneath it with a black tie. He had black hair, which was combed the same on each side. He also had three stripes in one side of his hair.
"And this is the man who I was talking about…" Liz said.
"Kid?" I said.
Everyone stared me. Everyone was impressed that I knew him. Kid, placed a smile on his face.
"It's been a while Maka." Kid said, with a wide smile. "Too long." He then, lifted up from his chair. "You look symmetrical, like always."
He came closer to me and we hugged each other. "Yeah, it's been a while." I said, almost crying. I missed him; I didn't saw him in ages. He was always such a good friend. Everyone, except from us were staring at us, weirdly.
"Um…" Said Liz, awkwardly. "Did we miss something?"
"Loo-Ok! Kid-Kun knows Maka-Chan!" Said Patty.
Kid, ignoring Patty's comment broke our hug and started talking. "Well not that much." Kid said.
"Well, if you ask me, you two looked like you know each other a lot." Liz said.
"Well, because our titles we know each other." Kid said. "And I'm friend with Maka." He then smiled.
Kid, he was also so kind. He lived through the same hell as mine. Maybe, even worse. We live so similar things. Under the pressure of everyone, expecting impossible things from you. We lived that same hell. We also shared something else, neither of us had…
Soul then touched my shoulder, interrupting my thoughts. "How do you know him?" He asked.
"By family matters." Said flatly. He then chuckled.
"Whatever you say." He said, annoyed. He then walked away.
"Maka! I thought you were kidnapped or worse!" Kid said, full of concern.
"No way in hell! I just escaped from hell!" I told him.
"I can't believe you did that! It must be awesome to live a normal life for one. Since all that was our dream." He told me.
"So, how did you two meet?" Asked Liz. "Maybe you were more than friends…" Said Liz.
I blushed a little by the comment and so did he. "We were not more than friends." I told her.
"Well…" Liz started. "The blush in your face says the opposite."
"I'm not blushing." I said, but my blush was brighter.
"Whatever." She said. "So how did you two love birds meet?"
"We are not love birds and it was years ago…"
A little girl with ash blond hair was crying. She was crying without stop. She was only five years old, but she had been through the living hell already. She saw people die in front of her. Many people dying in front of her eyes. Also, someone very important died in front of her eyes.
She was crying, with all she could, under a Sakura cherry blossom tree. The tree was withered; all the area around her was destroyed. All the houses in ruins. All the people dead. All the plants demolished and withered. All the blood around her.
Her clothes were in shreds. Her hair was untied. Her eyes were full of fear, anger and most of all sadness. She had been there, for three days. Crying with all she got.
Her dad had tried to convince her that everything was all right. That, she had nothing to fear about. That, know she was in a better place. That she was in heaven. But those things didn't care for her. She wanted her back.
Other people had come for her. Trying to take her away. To bring her back home. They brought her food, clothes and water. But those things didn't matter; they didn't know what she was going through. What they all cared was for money. They didn't give two shits about what she was experiencing.
Her father was the responsible for all this; if he hadn't fought with her; if he hadn't betrayed her, she would probably be here. Know, he was probably more drunk and with another whore. Like, if nothing had happened.
But, the one that was really at fault here was that witch of Medusa. It was all her fault.
A little boy, with dark hair and three white lines on one side of his head, sat beside her. He didn't say anything, like the others did. He just sat there, quietly. It wasn't at her side, but he was close. The boy didn't laugh or smiled. He didn't talk or offered her anything. He just, sat there, besides her.
He stayed with her for a day. He starved with her. He sits with her. In bare silence. He heard her cry for the day. He didn't sleep like her. He just stood there.
"I know what you're feeling know…" Was the first thing he said. "All the pain from losing someone important in front of your eyes." He told her. "It's a horrible pain. No words can describe how much hurt and hatred you have right know. You're hurt, because you lost that someone important. You have hatred, because you want to kill more than nothing the person who caused all this." He said. Then, he looked at the sky and stayed in silence for a while.
I looked at him, really for the first time. He was about my age. He wore a black suit. Also, a white under shit. A black tie was also part of his look. He had yellow eyes. "Ho-ow do yo-ou know wh-what I feel." I said, between sobs.
"I experienced the same as you. Not the exact same story, but it's pretty similar to yours." He said.
We then, stayed in silence again. After, his little talk, the next time a maid came, I ate. They were surprised that this mysterious boy, who came out of nowhere made little progress with me.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Death the Kid." He said.
"Death?" I said, with worry.
"Yeah, it's not like I'm here to take your life or anything." He said, with a smile.
"And why did you come here?" I asked him, he was very nice and all. But, I still didn't see a point why he is here?
"My father told me that someone is experiencing the same thing that I went through." He told me.
"And who is your father?" I asked.
"Lord Death." He told me.
I responded him with a simple. "Oh."
"You know, this is the first time that someone said that, after I told them who I was son of." He told me. "Usually, they bow and praise me. Why didn't you do that?"
"Well, I didn't do it in the beginning, so why would I do that know?" I told him. "Also, if you're talking about status I'm also by your level."
"Who is your dad?" He asked me.
"My Papa is Spirit. The red haired womanizer" She said and put a face, like she just had met the legendary Excalibur.
"OH! I know him; he's always with my dad!" He said with a happy face.
"Why are you so happy about?" I asked.
"Well, they see each other all the time. So that means I can see you again!" He told me. I blushed a little by his comment.
"And why would I be with you?" I asked him.
"Because we are friends silly." He told me, in a matter of fact tone.
"Friends?" I asked him, unsure of the word. I never had a friend in my life.
"Yep! Friends!" He told me.
"But, I never ever ever had a friend before! I don't know how to have a friend!" I told him.
"I haven't had also a friend before, we could both try." He said, and then he smiled again.
"Ok." I told him. Then, we sat there for a while. I hadn't cried since I ate.
"We should be going." He told me. He then lifted up and extended his hand.
I raised a brow to him. "You should take my hand, silly." He said. I then took it and I also was standing. And then, we walked to my home.
"And that's how we met." Kid told them. Everyone was paying full attention. But, Soul looked really annoyed by some reason. He was paying attention to Kid, but looked troubled.
"That's so cute!" Screamed Patty. "They were so cute little kids!"
"Know I remember you! Maka talk about you sometimes!" Tsubaki said.
I then saw, Liz and Soul. Who looked pretty annoyed. I was trying to figure out why they were so mad, but, a loud voice interrupted my thoughts. "I WAS WAY CUTEST THING IN EARTH WHILE I WAS KID!" Black Star said, he said it, just so we didn't take his spotlight, like he calls it.
"NO WAY!" Patty screamed.
"YEAS WAY!" Black Star, screamed back.
"NO!"
"YES!"
"NO!"
"YES!"
They continued, while Tsubaki tried to calm them down. I was near Kid now. "Liz and Soul looked annoyed." I told him.
He then, stopped daydreaming when I talk to him. "Sorry, I didn't hear ya?"
"What are you thinking about?" I asked him, it was very rare for him to day dream.
"Well about how much you changed and our promise." He said, and then he smiled. I blushed by both his comments. I then thought about our promise…
I was sitting on a swing. Kid, was sitting on the floor. I was thirteen and he was almost fourteen. We were both watching the wall and guards; those who prevent us to escape her; those who prevent us to walk and try to have normal lives.
"I wished I could live a normal life." I Started. "Just live one, like everyone else has. Not live under these stupid expectations."
"I wished that too." He told me.
We stayed like that, the swing creaked a little, but we stayed like that for some minutes.
"Why do they all expect so much from us?" I asked him. He always knew more than me in thing like this. I just knew normal knowledge. Things that you could find in books and others.
"Just because of our blood line and our politic rank." He told me.
"Yeah, but that doesn't mean that they have to expect so much from us. I mean, we don't expect them to do miracles, like the ones that they want us to accomplish." I told him.
"But, because were high politic ranks, whatever we do have to be good and appropriated." He told me.
"I'll never understand these things." I told him, sighing.
"It's not like I understand this so well either." He told me.
"But you sound like you do." I told him.
"It's just that father explains me these things. I have to learn them, one day or another. After all, I'm going to be the next Lord, so I should know these matters."
"But, it's not like you want to be a Lord." I told him.
"Yeah, it's not what I want, but it's my fate."
"But, why do we have such bad fates?" I asked him.
"There's no reason why we have so, it's just that we have them and we have to accept them."
"It's not fair to just accept the things like they are." I told him. "If we do, the war will never finish. The poor will not seek to be rich. The withered things will not want to be healthy again. The people with hope to live will just accept their fate to die. The life will not progress if we just continue to accept our fates."
"Yeah, but we can't fight it." He told me. "I don't know why you always ask about these things. In the end, you're always right, but I'm also always right."
"I just ask." I told him. "And we can fight fate. It's not like we already have all our futures decided. We have hopes and dreams that can fight it. I always believed that we have more than one future. Each action, changes our path."
"Well, Maka this time I decide to surrender with this argument." He told me. "Then, if you really want to fight fate, let's have a dream we both seek for."
"And that would be?" I asked him. This was really strange. Kid, never ever surrendered. We always debated these matters until one of us had to go.
"Both of us will live a normal life for a while and do that together." He told me. I then blushed a little. He then, extended his hand, like the first time that we met. He smiled at me. I gave him my hand.
"Well, looks like were fighting fate know." I told him, and then we laughed.
I was now blushing madder, after thinking about that promise. I already had life my 'normal' life for a while, but Kid, he was still under the pressure of everyone in the world. Everyone was still expectations about him. He still hasn't lived his life. He still was under the eye of the world. He was still not free, even for a day. I had to do something about this.
"Kid?" I asked him.
"Yeah, Maka." He told me.
"I have to get you out of here." I told him.
"What, Why?" He asked me more confused than ever.
"Well if you remember the promise we made so well like you told me, then you still haven't accomplished your part of the bargain." I told him.
"Yeah, but that's impossible! I know that you know as well as me, how many guards and security is surrounding us." He told me.
"No need to tell me about it." I said, with an annoyed voice. "But, I already have an idea!" I said, with an evil aura, that caught everyone attention. Black Star and Patty had shut up when they saw my evil aura.
"Maka, by experience your ideas are not the best and never work." Kid told me.
"Common!" I told him. "It's not like we lose anything!" I said.
"Well, if you're 'Excellent' plan doesn't work out. There so many possibilities that they will catch you and you'll be domed with your life again."
"There's always a chance that this isn't going to turn out, but I'm willing to risk that so you can live a normal life. I mean, it's not like I've lived the most normal life in the world by the moment. Like hell, maybe it's the weirdest 'normal life' that there is! But, I've lived and I'm not going to let you inside here for the rest of your days!" I told him. Everyone, except Kid and I were extremely confused about our conversation.
"It's not like I'm going to live here all my life, Maka." He told me.
"Yeah! So do you have any ideas to escape your symmetrical standard life?" I asked him.
"Well, no but…" He said, but I interrupted me.
"Trust me! Kid we're not losing anything!" I told him.
"You're not going to surrender, right?" He asked me.
"Not a chance." I said smirking. Kid, knew me well and when I had an idea, it was almost impossible that I surrender when I really wanted it, like know. I'm really persistent, but it's fine by me.
"Well, looks like I have no other option." He said.
I then smirked. "So I'll need all your help, so we can fight fate!" I said, then I laugh awkwardly, like Black Star and everyone glared me, with fear more than nothing.
Next time…
"So, you want US to get Kid out of here."
"I know you want to leave here…"
"You and Kid are only friends, right?"
A/N: New Chapter! First of all, this will be SoulXMaka, but I need to spice up the things a little, right? LOL Bad me!
