A/N: So recently, I haven't been having a whole lot of Soul Eater Evans in my life… so I decided to go back to his side of the story for at least this one chapter. ^_^
Soul was snoring on the ground of the guest room when the door creaking jolted him awake.
Sitting up quickly, he had to shield his eyes from the light that was coming from the hallways. "Rise and shine boys! It's eleven in the morning! Get up!" Kami yelled into the room.
Dagger groaned and rolled onto his side on the bed, clearly not wanting to get up.
"I made waffles!" Kami exclaimed.
Soul immediately got up. "Good morning Mrs. Star." He said.
"Soul, call me Kami." She said as she lightly slapped his shoulder. "You could go freshen up in the bathroom at the end of the hallway." She said as she went to push Dagger off of the bed. He landed on the ground with a loud thump and a groan.
Soul went to the bathroom and turned on the light, going straight for the sink and splashing his face with water.
The watch on his wrist beeped. Soul flipped it open to see the image of Justin. "Hey Mr. Law." He said, but frowned when Mr. Law didn't smile back. His face was filled with hatred but it vanished and was replaced by a calm, controlled look. "Mr. Evans, what have you found out so far?" he asked, in a calm tone, but there was a sharp edge to it.
"I found out that they are sending Maka to a training facility to train her for some sort of battle." Soul whispered.
Justin's eyes widened. "You don't mean Maka Albarn do you?" he asked. "How the hell did they get to her? Isn't she supposed to be with her mother? Is she a captive?" Mr. Law asked.
"Chill Mr. Law. Look, long story short, Maka's part of the Star Clan now, and they're offering me to be in it too. What do you think I should do?" Soul asked. "If I don't do it, then they're going to kill me." Soul whispered.
Justin's eye brows rose and he couldn't help the smile that graced his face. "Calm down Mr. Evans, if you are really loyal to the DWMA you wouldn't join the Star Clan." Justin said.
"But they'll kill me!" Soul growled.
"I already answered your question Soul. What else do we need to know?" Justin asked him.
Soul gritted his teeth. "No." he said, with a defeated sigh.
"Alright then, keep finding information for us." Justin said with a satisfied smile as he closed his watch. He doesn't need Soul to get to Blair, he could easily get his daughter back on his own.
Soul sighed and closed his watch and walked out of the bathroom and into the kitchen where Dagger was angrily munching on his waffles and the baby was sitting in its high chair while Kami fed it. "Hey Soul, I already served your food." Kami said, pointing with the spoon full of baby food in the direction of Soul's spot on the table, directly across from Dagger.
"It looks delicious Kami." Soul said, sending her a smile.
"Thank you Soul, at least someone appreciates my cooking." She said with a huff in Daggers direction.
"I would have appreciated your cooking if you hadn't pushed me off the bed." Dagger mumbled under his breath as he took another bite out of his pancake.
Soul rolled his eyes and began to eat his breakfast as silence filled the room. "When is Maka coming back?" Soul asked.
Kami sighed and looked down at the baby food in her hands. "I'd rather not talk about it." she muttered as she began to spoon feed Jason.
Soul sighed and finished his food.
"Are we supposed to stay in the house, or could we leave to go for a walk or something?" Dagger asked.
"You're stuck here. Sorry you guys." Kami mumbled as Jason finished his food.
"Maka is coming back… right?" Soul asked.
"She's coming back… I'm just not sure if she will be the same." Kami whispered.
"What do you mean?" Soul asked her.
"Jared talked to me about what happens over there… and he showed me the scars he has… I couldn't do anything to stop my baby girl from going there. I feel so useless." Kami muttered as fresh tears started to leak out of her eyes.
"Scars?" Soul exclaimed, standing up quickly, his hands slamming down against the table.
Kami jumped. "Lower the tone and don't smack things Soul." She told him.
"Why would he have scars? It's just training!" Soul exclaimed.
"You have a point Soul, it is training… but this man tortures his students when they don't do something the way he wants it done." Kami muttered.
"You have to take me over there." Soul growled.
"Calm yourself down Soul." Kami responded, wiping away the tears that had escaped her.
"No! This is my Maka we're talking about!" Soul yelled, causing Jason to cry.
Kami glared at him. "Your Maka?" he asked.
"I'll be in the other room listening to this." Dagger said as he stood up and walked out of the kitchen.
Soul realized his mistake. "I-" he started but he was interrupted.
"No, Soul. If you Maka was really yours, then none of this would have happened, you would have made sure that she never came back to me… you would have done so many things to keep her life in order… but you just messed it up for the rest of us." Kami growled at him.
Soul hung his head. "I regret a lot of things… but I still love Maka. She's my best friend, my meister… my happiness." He whispered.
Kami shook her head. "Maka isn't your meister anymore. You lost her." Kami growled, grabbing her crying child carefully and storming out of the room.
"Ouch." Dagger said with a chuckle as he leaned against the door way, this was his chance to rub lemon into Soul's wounds.
"Shut up." Soul growled at him. "I have to get to Maka somehow." He muttered.
