Hallooooooo! Shadowmistx98 here! =)

Here it is, chapter 8!

Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater.


The Next Day

After classes, Maka left the room without notifying Soul and BlackStar. She checked her things on her desk so that she won't forget any more of her things. She went to her locker and as soon as she opened it, the hallway was already silent. She got a few things from it. Then BAAAM!

Maka opened her eyes and saw that she was in a dark tight space. She looked at the hole where the light was coming from. She was in her locker. She was tied up and her mouth was too. All she could do is listen to some girls giggling.

"That wasn't too hard!" a girl with curly violet hair said.

"yeah! She's so fragile!" another girl with blonde long hair said.

"Now, that she's there, there's no more problem! She can't be found out until tomorrow! Or even longer... And Soul isn't going to notice she's gone!" they laughed.

"Wait... Soul?" she thought. "Urgh! That stupid boy and his fangirls..."

"But... what's the reason to imprison me? I'm not his girlfriend or something..." Maka struggled to be free but the ropes where too tight. What the heck? How did they get ropes?

"Hahahaha! We're so smart!" the girls said as they got out of the corridor.

"Yeah, smart, eh? I'd take it you didn't even think through of that little plan you made..." Maka thought.

"You should've had done your little victory speech in front of me..." Maka tried to bump the locker open with her body. She sighed as she mumbled.

"This is going to be hard... If only someone was here to save me..." Maka tried not to cry.


Soul looked at the entrance of the school uneasily.

"Hey! Soul! What are you doing? Let's go already!" BlackStar shouted at him as he prepared to leave the gate. Soul didn't hear him so BlackStar approached him. BlackStar knocked at Soul's head.

"Hello there! Earth to Soul!" BlackStar cried out.

"Ow! What the hell, BlackStar!" Soul exclaimed.

"Good! I thought you were already crossing the bridge to the other world!" BlackStar laughed.

"What?" Soul looked at him weirdly. "Stupid BlackStar and his nonsense..."

"C'mon, let's go home!" BlackStar tried to pull him but failed.

"Are you sure Maka already left?" Soul asked him.

"Yeah, she left the classroom without notifying us, she must've left school by now..." BlackStar pause. "Why? Are you worried?" BlackStar looked at him.

"A little..." he replied. BlackStar sighed.

"C'mon, Soul... Maka is a tough girl, don't worry! She can take care of herself! Now why don't we go home now" BlackStar assured him.

"You know..." Soul started.

"This is the part he's going to say 'You know, maybe you're right BlackStar. We're going home now'... hahahaha! I'm such a genius!" BlackStar thought.

"I'm going back inside to see if she's still there..." Soul entered. BlackStar stared at him and sighed.

"Maybe I'm not a genius after all..." BlackStar mumbled. "Hey, Soul! Wait up!" BlackStar ran up to him.

"You know, Maka may seem like a tough girl but she's fragile inside..." Soul said. "She doesn't like to show it..." Soul added. BlackStar sighed.

"I'm surprised on how you come to know her so fast..." he said then three laughing girls went past them.

"Oh! Hi there, Soul! BlackStar!" the girl with long blonde hair greeted them.

"Uuum... do we know you?" BlackSTar asked.

"Y-yeah! Of course! We're your schoolmates!" the girl with green short hair said.

"This is Alyssa, Riley and I'm Carla" the girl with curly violet hair introduced themselves.

"Uh, hi..." Soul said bluntly. "You guys don't happen to see a girl with pigtails, do you? Maka Albarn?" he asked. The girls froze and looked at eachother.

"N-no! Why should we?" Alyssa asked nervously.

"Well, we're off then... b-bye!" they ran. BlackStar looked at them.

"They look suspicious..." he said to Soul.

"You don't say... come on, we're going to the corridor... let's see if she's there on her locker..." Soul motioned him to go up the stairs. They walked at the quiet corridor and looked around. Maka was still inside her locker ready to give up.

"Soul, this is pointless..." Maka's eyes widened as she heard a familiar voice.

"The corridor's already a ghost town... she can't be in here..." BlackStar mumbled.

"Urgh... will you stop complaining already?" Soul glared at him. Maka knew it was Soul and BlackStar. Maka tried to shout but can only release small sounds because of the hanky tied to her mouth. Maka then bumped her body to the door of her locker.

"I'm not complaining... I'm just saying..." BlackStar paused. Then they heard sounds.

"Do you hear that?" Soul asked as they stopped walking. They fell silent as they tried to listen.

"Mmmmmoul! Mmmlakstar!" someone mumbled.

"It's coming from..." Soul and BlackStar looked around. "From Maka's locker!" they rushed to her locker and peeped inside. They saw Maka tied with a handkerchief around her mouth.

"Hold on Maka! What's your combination?" Soul asked completely forgetting the fact that Maka couldn't tell him because she was tied.

"Mmmmmmph!" Maka wanted to lecture him. Soul bumped his head on her locker.

"Urgh... sorry, I forgot..." Soul said.

"Soul..." Soul looked at BlackStar.

"C'mon... who needs a combination to unlock it, if you got me?" Soul stood back as BlackStar readied himself to do something.

"Me! The GREAT BLACKSTAR!" he punched the lock to her locker, breaking it. The locker door opened and Soul grabbed Maka free. He untied her. Maka took a deep breath, panting heavily.

"Thank goodness you found me!" Maka said.

"What happened?" Soul asked. Maka touched her head in pain.

"Are you ok?" Soul asked again.

"Yeah, I'm fine..." Maka paused and looked at BlackStar.

"BlackStar! Your hand!" Maka pointed them out.

"Oh, I'm fine! You should worry more about yourself!" BlackStar smiled at her.

"Well, well, well... what do we got here? Breaking the school's property?" a man said behind them. All of them looked at him.

"P-p-professor Stein?" Soul looked at him nervously.

"Professor Stein?" Maka and BlackSTar looked at eachother.

"Oh, my! You're hand is a little bruised..." Nygus, the school nurse, said to BlackStar as he bandeged his hand.

"So, you're telling me, three girls did this to you?" Professor Stein sat in his chair.

"Uh, yeah..." Maka nodded.

"Can you please identify them for me?" Stein asked.

"Uh, sure... One with curly violet hair... one with long blonde hair and one with green short hair..." Maka identified them which surprised Soul and BlackStar.

"you mean them?" Nygus finished bandaging BlackSTar's hand.

"Huh?"

"We came across them earlier..." Soul said.

"You are aware that they are your fangirls..." Maka eyed him.

"I knew it!" BlackStar pounded his left hand on his right palm. "I knew there was something suspicious about them!" BlackStar said in his conclusion.

"Alyssa, Riley and Carla..." Soul said. Stein stood up.

"I know them... I'm going to the guidance office... You three better meet up with me tomorrow there... We'll bring those girls in an interview..." Stein opened the door.

"Get well, you two..." Stein left and so did Nygus.

"So, who's he?" Maka asked. "You look terrified there earlier..." Maka added.

"He's our biology teacher... he was absent for a long time because of an accident..." Soul answered.

"You mean Professor Sid is just a substitute?" BlackStar closed and opened his injured hand. Soul nodded.

"Thanks guys... without you... I guess I would have spent my night in there..." Maka bowed her head.

"It's no problem!" BlackStar said.

"And thank you for punching my locker BlackStar..." Maka looked at him as he grinned. Soul eyed the two and prepared to leave.

"Where are you going?" Maka asked.

"I'm going to get an ice bag for you... your head does hurt, right?" Soul looked at her.

"Oh, thank you..." Maka smiled at him as he closed the door. BlackStar looked at her as she sat beside him in the bed.

"You know..." he started. "You should thank Soul..."

"I already did" Maka replied.

"No, I mean, much more thanks than mine..." BlackStar said which confused Maka.

"He's really the one that was determined to find you..." BlackStar saw Maka's shocked expression.

"Really! I was really eager to go home this day... so I told him that you might got home already without really thinking what might've happened to you... but he insisted... he pulled me back here and searched for you..." BlackStar said. "He really cares for you"

"That's why... you owe him much more thanks than me..." he smiled. Maka looked at him and smiled.

"You know, at first... I thought you guys where bad... selfish, self-centered, dishonest, unfaithful..." Maka paused.

"Oh, c'mon... not all guys are like that!" BlackStar whined.

"Yeah... I know now... you two are really nice guys..." Maka looked at him. BlackStar was about to cry.

"Even though you two act like complete idiots at times..." Maka chuckled.

"Oh, c'mon! You ruined the moment!" BlackStar shouted as Maka laughed. Soul entered the room and caught the two talking to eachother.

"Did I miss something?" Soul asked as he handed out the ice bag to Maka.

"Not much..." Maka smiled to him. Soul raised an eyebrow. Nygus came in.

"Ok... all you have to do with that injured hand is place it in an ice pack... don't strain it..." Nygus said. "You may go... take care..." she added. The three went out of school and went home.

"Finally we're home!" BlackStar stretched his arms. Maka looked at Soul as he yawned.

"Um, Soul, can I talk to you?" Maka asked."Sure..."

BlackStar looked at them. "Alone..." he shot at him.

"Oh, ok... I understand! The great BlackStar doesn't eavesdrop!" he said as he entered his house.

"So, what's so important that you want to talk to me alone?" Soul grinned naughtily at her. Maka pouted.

"I just wanted to say thank you... thanks so much" Maka looked away.

"It's no big deal" Soul smiled. "Yes...! it is..." Maka looked at him. Soul stared at her.

"BlackStar told me how you are so eager to find me... he said that you were worried..." Maka said.

"I really was..." Soul smiled at her.

"And... t-that's a big deal for me... when I was in my old school... no one even gave a damn for me... just Tsubaki" Maka paused. "I was really... touched... to know someone cared for me..." she blushed. Soul's smile turned more gentle.

"Rest up, princess... you're turning red..." Soul laughed as he patted her head.

"I-I am not!" Maka turned away from him and went to her house.

"Bye... thanks again..." Maka went inside of it. Soul smirked and went to his house. Maka went upstairs and secretely pulled the curtains on her window to see what the two where doing. She saw them having a verbal and pillow fight. She didn't think the fight was serious because she could see them laughing and smiling. She closed her curtains and lied down her bed. She smiled as she rested her two hands on the back of her heads. "Idiots..." she whispered.

"They're worthy to be called friends I guess..."


I know BlackStar is a little out of character there... Ok, maybe really out of character, but still I tried my best to get him to be the original. But hey! This is an AU fanfic, anything could happen (sweat drop). SoMa is a little short here...

Today is the 20th of April in the Phil. It's my big brother's bday! :)

Anyways, Hope you like it!
