Chapter 5: Reality Part 1

Kidd's P.o.v

"Black Star, what about everybody else? Not just Liz, Patty, Kilik, Fire, and Thunder. A lot of other academy students." I said after jumping down onto the dirt floor.

"We can't worry about them now. We'll come for them later." He turned his back on me and started walking away.

"Then I'm not leaving." I said stiffly, crossing my arms.

His jaw dropped a bit. "Come on, Kidd. Don't mess around."

He reached for my arm but I pushed my shoulder back before he could grab it. He paused once I did that but slowly pulled away.

"What the hell is your problem? If we don't leave soon they'll know you're gone."

"How bout we come for them tomorrow?" Soul interrupted. I perked up my eyebrows.

"Oh, Soul...you're here?" I asked.

He rolled his eyes and said, "Not cool, Kidd, not cool."

I diverted my attention back to the situation. "Fine, tomorrow." I said.


Maka's

I woke up to the sound of something bubbling. It was pretty warm, probably because there were about 5 blankets on me. I didn't know where I was but it felt nice to be there.

I rolled on my side to find my self facing the back of the couch.

"Maka, Are you awake?" I heard a voice say. "mmm." I mumbled, trying to say yes.

"I guess that's a yes. the voice said. (Which I soon realized was Tsubaki's.)

"How many pancakes do you want?" Tsubaki asked, so close that I could feel her breath. I held up my pointer finger. "Okay, one." As she got up I put up another finger. "Okay, then, 2...wait 3..4? 5?...6 now? 7? Oh, now 8?"

"Ah, a perfectly symmetrical number!" Kidd said, bursting through the door.

"Kidd!" Tsubaki exclaimed. She ran over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. He stepped back a bit.

"Hey, lay off my girlfriend, Kidd." Black Star said, walking in with Soul.

Tsubaki let go of Kidd and glared at Black Star.

"Come on you know I'm just kidding." Black Star smiled, opening his arms. "How bout a hug for me too.

She grinned and hugged him tightly.

Kidd soon said, "Oh look who finally woke up."

He walked over to me, grinning wildly.

I sat up staright and rubbed away the sleep on my eyes.

I smiled back at him as I got up to hug him.

He was cold which felt nice on my warm body.

But then, something caught my attention. Or rather someone.

"No, it can't be." I inched away from Kidd. "I thought you were dead."

"But you saw me at the hospital. You should know I'm not dead." He said.

"I was hallucinating. That wasn't you, was it?"

"It was me, realize that. And I forgive you if you blame yourself-"

"OF COURSE I BLAME MYSELF!"

"Well, you shouldn't."

"Then, why did you say what you just said!"

"I said it so that it would make you feel better!"

I sighed...

How did this happen?

"What happened that day? How did you not die?"

"I never said I didn't die..."


Authors Note: Hey, I'm sorry it was pretty late. I'm just writing a ton of stories, fanfiction or not. I hope you liked it and the guy at the end was Soul if you didn't already know...And this would have a lot more to it but, that would take me like another month so that's why this is part 1.
