Maka woke up feeling quite refreshed. Being asked out by Kid the night before had put in her a great mood, she didn't think anything could destroy it. But she still didn't understand what was wrong with Soul. It wasn't like him to hide away in his room all night. She decided to go and check on him.

Maka hopped out of bed, and changed into a red tank top, and blue jeans. When she walked out, Soul was sitting on the couch with no shirt, and shorts, watching TV.

"Morning Soul." She chirped happily.

"Yeah.." He said, without removing his eyes from the screen.

"What's wrong Soul? It isn't like you to be like this."

Soul sighed and stood up. He walked towards Maka, but she didn't like the look in his eye. She began backing away from him until she felt her back hit something solid, obviously it was a wall. Soul put his arm above her head on the wall, and leaned in closer, Maka was beginning to think she might not leave the house alive.

"You wanna know what's wrong Maka?" His tone sent shivers up her spine, making her even more nervous.

"Y-yes?" She replied, trying her hardest not to run away screaming.

"I don't like that your going to date that creep, Kid."

"W-what? That's what's wrong? That's silly Soul." After she said that, she instantly regreted it. She knew she was in no position to talk to Soul that way.

"Is it Maka? You know Kid, he's a freak! If you two were to get attacked, he'd probably get distracted by something symmetrical, and end up getting you killed!" He looked totally pissed.

"S-soul..." She reached out to touch his arm, but he quickly pulled away, and walked back a few feet.

"Forget it, if you get killed it isn't my fault." He began walking away when Maka yelled at him.

"Why do you care anyway Soul?"

He quickly turned around and glared at her.

"Because your my meister!"

"Is that all I am to you?" She tried to keep the sadness out of her voice.

Soul's expression softened, and his shoulders relaxed.

"No."

Maka searched his face, but couldn't read anything from him, so in hopes to make things better, she opened her mouth again.

"Soul, are you jealous of Kid?" She asked jokingly.

"What? No!" The relaxed Soul was gone, and a different one was now standing in front of Maka, guess her plan to 'fix' things, failed.

"I-I'm sorry..." She began walking towards him.

"Don't! J-just, go on your date." Without saying another word he went into his room, slamming the door behind him.

Maka lowered her head and sat down at the kitchen table. She sat there for what felt like hours before there was a knock on the door.

She stood up and walked towards the door. She opened it to see Kid in the doorway.

"Hey Ma- are you okay?" He questioned.

Maka looked from him, to his hand and saw he had half a dozen red roses in his hand. She finally clued into what he had said, and realised that, as she was sitting there, she had been crying.

"Y-yea," she quickly wiped her face with her arm, and forced a smile. "I'm fine. Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah, here, these are for you." He held out the bouquet.

"Aw thanks Kid, their beautiful." She smiled to him as she took the flowers from his hand. She walked over and placed them on the kitchen table before walking out the door with Kid.

Once there was no more sound from outside his door, Soul walked out and was heading to grab a glass of water, when something caught his eye... the flowers.

"Oh great! Mr. Perfect brings her red roses... oh and look, there's a card." Soul reached out and grabbed the card, it read;

Maka.
I'm so glad you agreed to go on a date with me. I was afraid you might not agree to it because of Soul. Give me a chance, and I promise you will be safe and happy.
Kid.

"What a fucking bastard!" He screamed, as he threw the flowers across the room, watching them break and fall into a pile on the floor.

The walk to the restaurant was silent, but not a bad silence. Once the two finally reached the restaurant, they sat out on a balcony, that Kid had reserved for them, the view was beautiful. The sky was clear, there was a small, but perfect breeze, and they had the area to themselves, it was amazing.

Silence didn't last much longer though. Once they finished ordering their food, Kid got right down to the point.

"So, Maka. Why were you crying?" He asked looking, concerned, but also understanding.

"I ah, it was nothing..." She tried to keep her eyes off Kid.

"Maka you can tell me."

She looked up, and her eyes instantly locked with his, causing her to blush.

"I ah... it's just Soul."

"Soul? What did he do?" His tone became serious.

"Nothing... he just seemed upset this morning. It's okay..." She forced a smile, hoping he'd believe it.

"Okay... anyway, look at that view, beautiful, isn't it?"

"Yeah it is... Kid?"

"Yes?"

"Why did you ask me out anyway?" She questioned.

"I like you."

"Ohh..." She could feel the blush forming on her face again.

"Your an amazingly symmetrical girl."

As he said that, Soul's words echoed through her mind. 'You know Kid, he's a freak! If you two were to get attacked, he'd probably get distracted by something symmetrical, and end up getting you killed!' Those words made her feel uncomfortable through the rest of the date.

As they walked back to Maka's place, she couldn't help but to get the feeling that she shouldn't go home yet.

"Maka are you alright?"

Kid's voice brought her out of her thoughts.

"Yeah, I'm fine, why do you ask?"

"You just seem jumpy."

"Ohh... well I'm fine."'

"Alright..."

When they got to the door to her place she said bye to Kid and quickly gave him a kiss on the cheek, causing him to blush. Maka was trying to waist time, she really didn't want to walk into the apartment. They finally said their goodbye's and she cautiously opened the door.

The place was a complete mess. Furniture flipped over, broken glass all over the floor, holes in the wall. As she walked through the totaled house, she noticed a pile of red on the floor, it was her roses from Kid.

"S-soul?" Her eyes darted everywhere, afraid what would happen if he showed his face.

After about a minute Soul appeared by his bedroom door.

"How was your date Maka?" He sounded almost evil.

"F-fine... W-why did you mess the house up?" Normally Maka would flip by the sight of the house, but because of how Soul acted this morning, and now, she wasn't in any position to yell at him.

"Felt like it."

"Well ah... are you okay?"

Instead of answering her question, Soul began walking towards Maka. Once again he got her up against a wall, except this time, he pinned her there with one of his arms. He was looking at her, almost as if he was examining her.

"S-soul... please move."

"No."

"I ah, need to clean up this mess."

"No."

"Bu-"

"NO!"

"Okay!" Tears began falling down her cheeks. At that moment, she honestly thought she might die today.

Maka opened her eyes to look at Soul. There was something about the look in his eye that didn't seem human, that's what it hit her, she had seen that look once before. It was the look that Stein once had. It was madness.

"Soul. You gotta listen to me... this isn't you! This is madness, and the black blood. This isn't you!" She shrieked as tears continued to fall down her face.

Soul glared at her. Now she was sure that she wasn't going to make it out alive. Just then the two heard a voice, it was Kid.

"Soul back away from her!"

Soul's eyes darted from Maka to Kid. Maka swore she heard him growl, before his arm turned into a blade around Maka.

"Soul you wouldn't!" She screamed, as the tears fell even faster.

Kid raised his twin pistols.

"Don't make me do this Soul!"

Maka searched Soul's eyes, and saw nothing but pure evil. If Kid didn't think of something quick, she was going to die, right there, by the hands of her best friend, and weapon, Soul.

Kid wasn't going to waist anymore time. He knew by the look in Soul's eyes, that if he didn't hit Soul, Maka was going to die.

Kid quickly shot repeatly at Soul, until he fell to his knees in pain. Maka fainted, and Kid ran to her side, but kept the guns close.

Soul opened his eyes and looked around. How did the place become such a mess? He thought, that's when he saw Kid and Maka.

"W-waht happened to her!" Soul stood up and began heading towards the two when Kid raised a gun to him.

"Kid, what the hell are you doing?" He stopped in his tracks and starred at Kid.

"Stay the fuck away from Maka! If you come anywhere near my house, I'll fucking kill you!" Kid picked up Maka, and carried her. Liz carried her sister in gun form, they kept the one gun on Soul the whole time as the four slowly backed out of the house.
