Chapter 3

It's been a long time, I'm sorry. Life gets hard. Going through surgery is even harder. Even though it takes me long, I'm not going to stop this story or put it on hold.
SO ENJOY!

"What the hell do you mean babysitting?" I said glaring at them. I glanced over to Maka, who seemed to really want to know the answer as well.

"Kid said you're having trouble so we came to help you." Patty said like nothing was wrong.

"I'm not having trouble. She got attacked by a kishin and I told him that! That doesn't mean I need help." I finished off the sentence more to myself then them.

"Wait, they know what a kishin is too?" Maka asked.

"We sure do, we hunt them and kill them." Liz said to her.

Maka's face becomes filled with shock. "You do that for a living? Are you crazy?"

"Well yeah but our mister holds us as we are in weapon form so we're not really upfront and center." Patty answers.

Maka now looked confused. I buried my head into my arms. Why are Liz and Patty telling her this? It's too early! They know better!

"Guys, can we go talk somewhere and not in front of Maka?"

"Sure thing Evans~" Patty snickers.

"We'll be right back." I say to Maka. She nods and waves me off.

Once Patty, Liz and I are out of the little diner place, I lose my cool.

"What the hell are you doing here and why the hell are you telling her this stuff? You know the plan, just like me, because you're part of it!" I yell at them.

"Soul, I didn't know that she didn't know." Liz says with a pout.

With a slap over my face, I start to walk away.

"Hey, where are you going?" Liz says to me.

"Dude, Maka is inside!" Patty says next.

I stop and look at them. "You're messing up the mission. Soon, all she is not going to know is that I'm her dog! But since you're telling her so much; she's going to put the pieces together and figure it out. I want her to act normal and talk to me about normal stuff. All she is going to do is ask questions!"

Liz lets out a sigh as she leans against the wall. "Sorry Soul, I guess I didn't think this though enough. I forgot that we were going to have her open up to you and your dog form. But how about we just tell her the kishin part and that's it."

"But you mention the mister part too!"

"All we need to say that a mister and weapon team kills kishins"

I look down to the ground. Maybe this mission isn't a failure after all.

"Now I know why he doesn't like us helping on missions." I hear Patty whisper to Liz. Ignoring them, I walk back into the little diner.

Maka looks up from her drink. "Hey wow, I didn't think you would come back."

I adjusted myself in the seat then raised a brow. "Why would I do that?"

Maka shrugged, "Don't know. You just seemed upset back there."

I shrug and play with the straw, spinning it around in the cup. "Look Maka, I know you're very curious and confused about what happened, but I can't tell you everything. Okay?"

"I know." Maka simply says. I look up shock, "Really, you're not going to ask more questions?" I can't believe she can be so easy to work with.

"Well, it would be nice to know but people don't tell me stuff anyway. I got used to it. I just wanted to know what a kishin does and how come I have never seen one before in my life." Maka looks out the window after she finishes her sentence.

I look over to see what she's looking at; only to find Liz and Patty talking.

"Maka, a kishin eats off of human souls. A mister and a weapon, team up to kill them. We live like humans, hiding so we can kill them and not have people see us doing this. But I came late when you got attacked.

"Oh, then that explains why you are here." Maka smiles at me. I nod; even though I lied about the last sentence. I don't think she would like to know the kishin is only after her, to bring her back to the witches so they can have her soul. But then, I think what if she doesn't have the power they wanted; she would just be killed for nothing.

"Alright, so let me get this straight. There is a kishin lose that eats kids like me. So you're here to kill it. But, had some trouble with it and that's why those two girls are here." Maka says smiling proud, since she now knows what's going on.

I looked over her face, eyeing her glasses. "Maka, why do you wear glasses?" I asked before realizing what I just said.

Maka looked at me strangely. "Because I can't see without them." She said as if it was a stupid question.

I played it off. "Well, um, I feel like you can't see when wearing them." I lied. Maka stiffened to my surprise.

"Are you okay?" I asked eyeing her movements. She looks at me then at the door. "Um, Evan or Soul, whatever name you use. I just remembered that I have to get dog food for Soul. So bye… see you tomorrow I guess, thank you for telling what happen earlier."

I stood up when she ran out. "Maka!" I called out after her. Liz and Patty ran in.

"Dude, where is she going?" Liz asked.

"To get dog food? But I really think she is going home. Then that means I have to beat her." I said starting to run out the door.

"Wait Soul, did you do something to scare her?" Patty asked. "I don't know, I mentioned her glasses and she freaked." I answered.

"Who freaks over that?" Liz then asked.

"Someone who is hiding something. Kid told me that she had 20/20 vision. So I'm going to go find out why she wears glasses. Hopefully she will tell it to the dog."

"Well good luck with that." Liz says. I nod and run down to my bike.

When I reached the apartment, I can see Maka opening the door. I jumped off the bike, putting it in my watch all at the same time as I ran to the window; then transforming into a dog. Lucky that I can jump high to the second story.

"Soul, come here little guy!" I hear Maka call out. I walk out of her room then starting to wag my tail. Maka sat down and started to pet me.

"You know what Soul? I had the craziest day of my life."

Sure, call it crazy.

"I was attacked by this thing called a kishin. But a cute boy saved me. His name is Evan or the same name as you. I find that funny. Like what are the odds?"

Did she really say I was cute?

"I noticed that Evan had the same classes as me. Like every single one of them."

I watch her take off her glasses, then rubbing her eyes as if tired.

"He asked me why I wear these." She says showing me the black glasses. "I noticed he wears some too. He has grey eyes, and white hair. You would think he was old if you didn't see his face."

Why must she skip her story? She was just about to say why she wears them! Now she's ranting about how I wear them too.

"…I guess wearing them makes me feel safe." I hear her say.

Wait what did she say before that?

"Mama and Papa always ignored me when I said I see things." I hear her admit sadly.

She got up from the floor and walked over to the kitchen. I followed.

"When wearing the glasses I don't see them… those red and blue circles."

Red and blue circles? Is she talking about souls?

Maka started to take some popcorn chicken from the freezer. She turned to look at me.

"I wonder if Blair is going to be okay with a dog in the house. She's more of a cat person. Always wearing those cat ear hairbands."

Ugh, there she goes getting off topic again. She really is easily distracted. I sat there watching her bring the popcorn chicken to the living room; sitting down eating them. Thank god I ate at the diner place.

"Oh Soul are you hungry?"

No.

Maka gets up with plate in hand. Cleaning the dishes then taking out some bacon. She is silent and freezes. I stand on all fours. A knock then happens. Maka runs to the door looking out the peek hole.

"What do you want?" She snarls through the door.

"I lost the money Blair gave me. I need some more." Was the reply.

"Get lost. I said this before. I watched Blair give you the money before she left. You don't lose money at all. You're just fishing for some more." She says back.

"Maka, open the door!"

Maka swings it open. I see a man with spiked up hair, a light brown color to me. I then noticed a silver thing on his nose. I walk forward. He looks at me. I stop.

"You have a dog?" He asked angrily.

"No." Maka says standing in front of me. "I'm just, ah, dog sitting for a friend."

"Since when did you make friends? And besides, no dogs are allowed."

"Well, since when did you start following the rules?" Maka says back.

The guy stares at her then at me. "Whatever, I will let you keep the dog until your so called 'friend' returns. He then storms out slamming the door behind him.

Maka jumps at the noise then faces me. "That was Giriko. I swear he is bipolar. Always asking for money and when you don't give him your rent money he goes well crazy."

I look back at the door. I wonder how Maka sensed him before there was a knock on the door. Maybe she has soul protection, but then does she still have that power inside of her?

"Come on Soul, let's go to bed." Maka says picking me up. When we reach her room I look over to the clock. Only 6 o' clock. What the hell? Little kids don't even go to bed this time!

Maka changes into a t-shirt and comfy shorts. Then grabbing her bag taking out what looks like to be homework. Why couldn't she just say that? I walked around her bed. I never been so bored, I can't just go watch TV or play games with my phone. Maybe I should just sleep.

I look over to Maka who sat quietly at her desk doing work. I will just close my eyes for a minute.

When I reopen them, Maka was gone. I shot up in panic. Where did she go? Something then stirred next to me. Jumping in the air only to find out it was Maka.

I sighed in relief. The clock shined 11 o' clock. Wow I slept for a good five hours.

I jumped off the bed making my way to the living room. Jumping up on the couch, I turned on the TV, turning down the volume real low so Maka couldn't hear it. I looked down at my small paw. It was so easy using the remote with this size. I stretched when a good show came on. I curled up and watched all night long.

BEEP BEEEP BBBEEEEP BEEEEPPPP

I jumped up from the noise, realizing that it was Maka's alarm. I notice the TV was still on; then turning it off just in time as Maka walks in. I wag my tail at her. She gives a sleepy smile then turns around. Where I'm guessing is to the bathroom. A door closing fills the room as everything lies quite.

Day 3 has just begun.

A week passes faster than I thought. I will talk to Maka only at lunch time. Running in and out of school when I sense a kishin. But when I get there mostly Liz and Patty have gotten it. I found out that Kid sent them to kill the kishins when I look after Maka. Feeling better knowing they're not really babysitting.

Kid told me Blair was really a real cat with a lot of powers. Kami and Spirit got her to protect Maka when they are gone.

I told him that Maka says her parents send her postcards. His answer was that Blair must be doing that.

I then told Kid that I believe Maka has Soul Protection and that she wears glasses so she doesn't see them.

Liz and Patty were a big help, talking to Maka when they see her. Maka still didn't talk to people at school. But anytime she did, it would be something rude. I will always have to hold in my laughter because I see her as a nice girl like Tsubaki.

Week two happens then week three.

Maka stopped asking about the kishin. Liz and Patty left when Kid told them it was all clear and that I could take care of it.

Maka would come home every day. Telling me what happen at school. Who was mean to her, what she got on her test, even though I see most of it at school.

I learned the Maka misses her parents that she even cried. I felt bad to know that her mom is really dead and that her father is missing. Blair still wasn't home either, which added to Maka's sadness.

Maka finally got dog food, which I refuse to eat or even try for that matter. She gave up and started to just feed me meat.

She and I will sometimes hang out at the little diner. She will still wear the glasses. She even asked where Liz and Patty were. I told her they went home. They had a mission somewhere else. She nodded and went back to her food.

Week four came along. Close to being a month and I still don't know if Maka has that power inside her. But I did find out that she can become a mister. Just like her mom.

Kid told me that I'm doing well and that it seems no one is trying to catch her right now. But I still have to find out if she has the power.

After this month is over I will bring her to Death City. She will be graduated as well. She doesn't seem happy about it. When I asked her why, she said she has no family right now, only her dog Soul.

I told her that I will be there for her. She smiled at me.

I stopped going to school and wait for her and walk her home. I will then hear what happen in dog form. I could tell she was not happy and it was getting worse.

Bringing her to Death City is not going to be easy.

And that's the end of chapter 3. I mostly did explaining at the end. Next chapter I can't wait to write because I can finally put down what I wanted! Yeah!
I'm really trying my best to get in the hang of this again. And I am really sorry that it takes me long to do this. But hey it's summer! I want to have fun and not be on a laptop!
