I do not own Soul Eater or any other character (hahah get the pun?)
PS: for the readers who believe Maka's out of character my bad this is an AU so I needed to use something other than MAKA CHOP but I'll find something similar hahaha.
For those of you who miss Kid I GREATLY APOLOGIZE I was way too caught up with that one moment but here he is!
After saying his goodbyes Kid exited the café to get his skateboard. He had left it leaning in one of the bike railings, the one in the middle to be exact. Hands in the pocket of his black suit, he rode down the streets towards City Hall. A meeting was being held there and President Shinigami was the guest of honor, Death City being his hometown. Kid was also invited to the meeting, and if it weren't for the symmetry of the architecture of the building, he would not have come. This would have been a scene where So Crazy would play in the background.
He had lived slightly on the outskirts of town, in a mansion that was of course, symmetrical. Even as a child he was a very able and sophisticated boy so he lived by himself most of the time, along with numerous maids and butlers that would rarely bother him. Since he had been close to the city all his life, he knew all the detours and shortcuts that he used so often to disappear in one place and appear in another quickly, this was no exception.
He made a swift turn down an alley. He had calculated his speed and the distance so that he could get to City Hall on time. Kid was after all a perfectionist. Halfway down the alley he heard a shuffling noise and he turned his head around hoping to catch a glimpse, but he saw nothing. He shrugged it off and continued down the alley.
BANG.
"Huh?" He felt something fly past his head. It was fast and close it almost grazed his skin or touched his hair. The surprise didn't completely catch him off guard, he had expected something to happen after he heard the rustling noise. He stopped and took one foot off of his skateboard, looking around him.
"Who's there?" He asked.
Silence clouded the alley for only a few minutes, while he was patiently waiting for a response.
"Ow…."
Kid turned his head and looked at a pile of garbage bags sitting right next to a dumpster.
"…it hurts…"
Is that a girl? He could see a figure laying on top of the bags but he wasn't sure.
"someone…help…"
She was barely whispering. Her voice was hoarse and she sounded weak.
Kid got off his skateboard completely and slammed his foot on one side, making the other side lift up so he could catch it with one hand. He held it with one hand like a book, bending his wrist inward so the board was in between his hip and his arm as he walked over to the girl.
She was clearly visible now. Bright blonde hair, huge rack, wearing shorts and a jacket. She was sprawled all over the top of the garbage bags face up like she had fainted or something.
What should I do, I can't just leave her here, but at this rate I'll be late for sure. Kid thought. It was a choice between two of his most noble characteristics, punctuality or helping citizens.
"Are you okay?" He asked, placing his board so it was leaning against the wall, he himself leaning over to check on her.
A wide, evil grin took over her face. "I'm awesomeee~~!" Her voice became sing-song when she began to giggle violently.
"Hey there boy, don't move or I'll shoot."
Kid felt something cold press against his head. Unafraid he turned around so he was now facing the gun head on. The girl holding him at gunpoint was a tall dirty blonde who looked similar to the girl all over the garbage bags. She was wearing jeans and the same jacket, her blue eyes were greedy.
"Are you going to shoot?" Kid knew how not many people would dare to pull a trigger on him; no one would want to face the wrath of his father.
"Oi, don't test us kid." The tall one warned him.
He chuckled at the joke. Did she know 'kid' was his name?
"What's so funnnyy~~?" The girl on the bags sang, putting up another gun to the back of his head.
"Do you know who I am?" It was clear now, he was toying with them, trying to turn the tables around as if it was HIM putting them at gunpoint, not the other way around.
"Eh? How should we know! You're just some kid it doesn't matter to us!" She smirked.
Once again, he chuckled at her unintended pun.
"Oi oi you shouldn't be laughing in this situation~~" The short blonde warned.
Kid's face became serious. "Are you going to rob me?"
It was the tall girl's turn to laugh. "I wonder about that." She joked.
"Sorry, I don't have money on me right now. You should come back to me later." Kid had his hands in his pocket as he turned his head to walk away but stopped when the tall blonde shoved his back against the wall. Now the two girls had both of their guns pointing at each of his golden eyes. He felt fear creep up behind him, even if he was the president's son and no one dare kill him, being his son also made him a precious target.
Now that they were both in front of them, he could see their faces a little better. They seem familiar… he pondered over the thought. A smirk grew on his face. That's right, they're that girl's friends. Her name was Maka right?
"What are you so smiley about?" The tall one asked cautiously.
There was nothing to fear. "You two were at the gala last night. You escaped through the window am I correct?" I hope I'm right he double thought his question.
"Heh, I have no idea what you're talking about." She responded.
"You sure ask a lotta questions kid~~!" The short one stated in that sing-song voice. He mentally laughed at the pun that seemed unavoidable.
Kid raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure you don't know? You were with another girl with black hair, looking for, Maka was it?" The facial expression on their faces gave it away.
"Who are you?" The tall one demanded, putting the gun to his temple. Kid shivered a little at how cold the metal was.
His facial expression changed to fake sadness. "You don't remember me, I'm hurt. After all I was in the room too."
The two girls raised an eyebrow. Is he lying to us? The tall one thought.
"Prove it." She said.
Kid shrugged. "There isn't much to prove anything with." He said in a disappointed tone. "But if memory serves you were chased by a blue-haired boy whom you found in the room along with a white-haired boy and Maka right?"
She lowered her gun, letting her arm droop to her side. The other one did the same and looked at her sister.
"Liz~?" She asked curiously.
"Damnit Patty we got caught." Liz said through clenched teeth. She backed away with her sister, ready to make a run for it.
"Caught?" Kid raised an eyebrow. The two blondes stopped their escape. Kid laughed, which confused them. "I never said I was going to turn you in, you made that assumption on your own."
"Huh?" The two sisters said simultaneously. What's this kid talking about we didn't assumer anyth- okay yeah maybe a little. Liz thought.
Seeing the way they tried to mug me I can see that their lifestyle is completely different than those who were invited to the gala, like myself. He sighed. It's a shame we let people like them sneak out without consequences. Clearly all four of those girls snuck in it's quite obvious; just knowing that makes me a 'partner-in-crime'. Oh no, what have I become a delinquent? I'm the first son I should have prevented this, no. I should have stopped it! I'm a heap of embarrassment, a pile of poop, I have no right to be the president's son. They should just turn me into some eco-friendly recyclable coffee cup.
His train of thoughts quickly changed from assessing the two girls to the memory of his failure to capture them last night. He slowly slid his body down, propping himself up on his shins and hands, his thighs parallel to his calves and his back completely straight like a tabletop. He hung his head and looked at the ground. "I'm hopeless completely hopeless…." He groaned.
"Hey don't say that~!" Patty was a very upbeat person. She walked over and kneeled beside Kid, patting him on the back.
"Oi Patty what are you doing?" Liz screamed worriedly.
"Ha-ha~! Look at him sis' he looks so lame~!" She sang.
"I-I don't think you should be saying stuff like that Patty…" He could turn us in any moment after all, even if he said he wouldn't. "I don't think you should get on his bad side…" We'll be done for!
They could faintly hear it, but was he…crying?
"I've failed…I can't go on…not like this…" He kept telling himself.
Liz was getting sick of it. "Patty." She motioned her index finger, telling her sister to come over to her. Once Patty was away from Kid and right next to Liz, her sister leaned over to whisper something in her ear.
"Hey, this brat knows about our little stunt last night at the gala. I think you got the right idea going."
"Right idea~?" Patty asked.
"Keep comforting him, that'll get on his good side. We should come to good terms with him." She smiled and the two of them both returned to Kid, each kneeling on either side of him, patting him on the back.
"Hey there don't be so down I'm sure you're not as bad as you think!" Liz exclaimed.
"Yeah yeah~!" Patty backed her up.
Kid lifted his head up and looked at them both with hopeful eyes, filled with tears. "You really mean that?" He asked.
"Of course we do! Now come on wipe that look off your face it's a beautiful day today!" Liz laughed uneasily.
After using one of his sleeves to wipe his eyes, he stood up and straightened himself out.
"Sorry you both had to see me like that." He quickly apologized. "What were your names again?" He politely asked.
"Patty~!" The short haired blonde's hand shot up in the air.
"I'm Liz." The other one smiled.
He smirked, anxious to see their reaction when he told them his name. "I'm Kid."
Seriously...? Patty's eyes were wide open and her mouth was in an 0 in amazement. Liz had a sweatdrop down her head. Now i get why he was laughing...unless that's not really his name?
Satisfied with their reactions, he remembered something and looked at his watch. "Crap I'm almost 15 minutes late!" He walked over to the wall and grabbed his skateboard, throwing it flat on the ground.
"Wait where are you going?" Liz asked.
"It was nice to see you two again, but I really should get going." He pushed the ground with one foot, the wheels began rolling forward as he lifted one hand by his head to wave goodbye. "Later." Soon he had left the alley.
"Sis is he~"
Liz turned her head from Kid to Patty and nodded.
"Yeah, the first guy to get away from us without a scratch." She smirked at the thought. "I like guys like him." She stated.
The two stood up from kneeling down and began walking out of the alley in the opposite direction as Kid, stuffing their guns in their pockets.
"We should get going, Maka and Tsubaki's shifts should've ended by now."
"Yeah~!"
