Author's note:
Hi everyone. I have decided to make this story complete. So here's a brand new chapter. I hope you like this one too. It's a little bit longer than chapter 1. I have to tell you that I added one OC into this story and there will be more OC's. I also have forgotten to tell you that I had added a OC in chapter one. Hehe, sorry for that...
Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater, only my OC's.

Maka was having a hard time. Her breathing was unsteady and heavy and her heart was racing like crazy. She couldn't decide if it was a dream or a warning for in the future. The dream felt strangely real and at the same time like every other dream or nightmare she ever had. Eventually, she felt herself more awake than sleepy, so she decided to leave her warm bed and visit her kitchen. She put some water in a pan, turned on her hot plate and prepared some tea herbs in a cup. She discovered, two days earlier, that this was the best way to calm herself after having a nightmare such as she had experienced tonight. Since her kettle was making to much noise, she used a regular pan instead. While making her tea, she was wondering about her nightmare. She had felt she could sense souls just as good as right now. To confirm this, she checked if she could sense her best friend's, partner's and weapon's soul. She closed her eyes, panicked a bit, but sighed in relief when she found his soul. It didn't moved much, just bounced slowly up and down. Probably in the same rhythm of his breathing. The colour of his soul was just as equal and bright as always. She heard the water began to boil. She put her cup in the sink and poured extremely carefully the steaming water in her cup. She took the cup (grateful that the cup wasn't hot), blew a bit and leaned against the counter. She closed her eyes once more and, to past time, she recalled her dream to make sure she'll remember the most important details such as the witch she saw. I'll write it down later, she thought sleepy.
'Can't sleep,' asked Soul out of nowhere. Maka quickly opened her eyes and put a hand to her mouth to prevent for screaming it out. She gave Soul a irritating look. Nice, I'll have to start over again, she thought.
'Soul, don't scare me like that,' she whispered angrily.
'Sorry,' he said and opened the fridge to take some milk.
'Want some,' he asked. She shook her head. 'No thanks'.
'Alright,' he answered and took a huge sip straight from the milk carton. Meanwhile, he watched her carefully. Why is she up in the middle of the night, he wondered. He leaned against the fridge, facing Maka.
'Something's bothering you,' he asked, watching her as she took a deep breath and let it out quite frustratingly.
'No, was just up way to early. I was thirsty so I made me some tea,' she lied half. It wasn't completely lied. She actually made her some tea because her mouth felt a bit dry. However, Soul didn't believe her. She could tell because he sighed tiredly.
'If you don't want to tell me, I'm fine with it, but lying isn't cool Maka,' he said after taking another sip of his milk.
'I'm not lying,' she replied a little bit louder than she expected. Soul finished his milk, threw the carton away and walked just so he was properly facing Maka, but with 3 feet between them.
'I'm going to bed again,' he said. 'If you change your mind, my door is open.' He started to walk to his bedroom.
'Wait,' she said softly. She drunk her tea quickly, put her cup on the counter and walked to Soul, who was standing next to his bed. She leaned against the doorframe. Soul turned around, but he saw that Maka wasn't looking at him. She focused her eyes on the floor and folded her hands in front of her. She leant her head against the cold wall. Because she wore her hair down, he couldn't see her eyes. 'I just had a nightmare. That's why I was up. There is nothing going on'. Soul felt guilty and walked to her until he stood in front of her. He took her cold hands, probably gotten cold because she was tired. He tried to warm them.
'Wanna talk about it,' he asked. He wondered where her nightmare was about, he could see in her expression that it bothered her quite a lot.
'You'll think it's stupid,' she said. Soul moved one of his hands to put strings of her hair behind her ears to look at her.
'Try me,' he asked playfully and smiled softly. Maka smiled tiredly back at him. She noticed just how tall he was right now. It never came to her mind earlier because they weren't this close for the past months.
'Promise not to tell anyone,' she asked.
'I won't tell anyone,' he answered seriously and looked at her told him shortly what her nightmare was about. She also told him that she didn't know if it was a regular nightmare or something else and asked Soul what he thought. Soul didn't know either. They discussed it for a good hour, eventually discussing if they should tell a professor or not.
'I don't think we should tell anyone about this yet. It's not that I don't believe you, quite the contrary, but anyone else wouldn't say this is an evidence that a new enemy is among us,' Soul said worried. Maka sighed. He's right. Soul will believe her immediately, her friends would as well, but anyone else might wonder if she has become insane, to say it lightly.
'You're right,' she said. 'Maybe my dream was just a mix from the missions we had done earlier and Blackstar's creepy movies from yesterday'. Both Maka and Soul were forced yesterday to watch one of Blackstar's favourite movie "The age of ninja's" which were, of course, about fighting ninja's, defeating the enemies and saving the world from harm. Altogether, a rather boring movie because everything was so predictable. But, because it was Blackstar's 16th birthday, Tsubaki, Kidd, Liz, Patty, Soul and Maka agreed to give him the party of his life. It included Tsubaki's famous cooking, watching several movies (from movies about war to movies about haunted houses and those kind of things) and playing games. In the end, they all had fun yesterday.
'Come on,' Soul said after Maka nodded in agree. 'Let go back to bed. Unless you want to stay with me up all night,' he grinnend mischievously and started to tickle Maka.
'Noooo. MAKA CHOP,' she yelled.
"Ouch, sheesh you didn't have to hit me that hard,' grumbled Soul. Maka giggled softly.
'You should have thought twice before you started to tickle me,' said Maka. Soul mumbled an apology. After the battle against demonking Asura, the bond between Maka and Soul had become stronger than ever. They also understand each other better, although, they don't admit this to each other. And these are one of the reasons why they are the strongest couple of DWMA.
Maka smiled to Soul once more.
'Goodnight Soul,' she said softly.
'Night Maka,' he said to her. Maka made sure his door was almost closed, just open enough to let in some air like always, and walked to her own bed. She curled herself up under the thick covers of her sheets, praying that her nightmare didn't return. She put her hands close to her chest, to make sure Soul's warmth will protect her for the night, and falls asleep.
Somewhere in the distance….
The woman with the dark green robes, as green as a rainforest can be, sits silently on a rock. Her goldenblond hair was curled up so it hug her face perfectly. Although her hair was short, her bangs prevented everyone to look directly into her eyes, on purpose. She took a small knife, cut herself and closed her eyes. Suddenly she started to laugh very softly. Her laugh was very mysterious, like a laugh from evil itself. She sung:
'Rise from the dirt, stand next to me
Children of madness, stand up and be free
Take my blood and punish the one
Who thought they could supress anyone
With blood, unhuman-like
Come to me and bring them fright
And together we will rule
Starting tonight.'
