Broken Reaper: Chapter 2.

Writer’s POV:
It was now near lunch time and Stein had decided to just let his class go home since he knew they probably wouldn’t be able to concentrate after they had heard the terrible news about a certain young Reaper. Most of the students from ‘Crescent Moon’ had gone home or were just making their way now, those students included the gang of what used to be seven but is sadly now just six.
“Hey are you two alright now?” Tsubaki asked as her and her Meister walked over to Liz and Patty, with downhearted looks on their faces.
“Yeah, I think so, thanks,” Liz answered with what was obviously a forced smile, as she turned to the two and wiped her eyes (which were now all red and bloodshot from her crying so much).
“Sis…..I wanna go home now,” Patty whispered as she was still holding onto her older sister’s shirt tightly.
“I know Patty, we’re going now okay?” Liz comforted her younger sister as she put an arm around her shoulders, and started to gently rub her back in a calming motion, “We’ll see you guys later, right?” Liz asked as she turned back to Tsubaki and Black Star with another forced smile.
“Yeah sure,” Tsubaki replied with a small smile, while her Meister just nodded to the twin weapons.
The two sisters headed for the classroom door, but were stopped in their tracks when the other weapon called out to them again, “You’ll call us if you need anything right?” Tsubaki called to the sisters.
“Yeah, I’ll be sure to,” Liz called back as she turned back to the other weapon for a moment, before her younger sister and her left the classroom, and headed for ‘Gallows Manner’ (their home).
Tsubaki and Black Star were planning to do the same and start making their way home as well, when Soul suddenly came running over to them both with a worried look on his face.
“Hey, have you guys seen Maka anywhere?” The Scythe asked as he panted heavily for a minute.
“No,” Black Star shook his head.
“Wasn't she with you?” Tsubaki asked with a slightly confused look on her face now.
“Yeah she was, but she told me she wanted to go for a walk on her own for a bit, so I let her do that, but she hasn't come back yet, and I can’t find her anywhere so far,” Soul explained as he got his breath back, but obviously still seemed to be in a sort of a panicking state.
“Okay, okay calm down, I'm sure she couldn't have gone far, why don’t we help you look for her?” Tsubaki asked trying to lend the other weapon a hand.
“That would be great, thanks,” Soul sighed a little in relief as he thanked the two.
“It’s no problem, really,” Tsubaki replied with a kind smile to the other weapon.
“Are you sure?” Soul asked, seeming a little unsure about having his friends help him find his missing Meister.
“Of course,” Tsubaki nodded simply.
“What else are friends for, right?” Black Star added with a small smile to his friend.
“Thanks you two,” Soul replied with a grateful smile to the two.
“You’re welcome, now let’s go find that Meister of yours,” Black Star stated proudly before the three ran off to go search for Soul’s missing Meister.

Maka’s POV:
I could feel the cool wind blowing me from side to side slightly as I stood on top of one the roof pillars of the D.W.M.A, and was slowly making my way to the edge of it, ‘It’s not true, I don’t believe it. Kid-Kid can’t be…..Gone, there’s just no way, right?’ Was all I could think as I came closer and closer to the edge of the thin pillar that I was walking along.
‘Why didn’t I listen to those strange thoughts and feelings that I was having? Why didn’t I tell anyone about them? I could have saved him, I should have saved him, so why didn’t I? Why?’ The entrance to the school was what was below me, as I was slowly running out of pillar to keep walking along.
I didn’t know what I was doing here, or why I was doing it, I just knew that I had to see him again, ‘You’re not dead, right Kid? Please come here and tell me that this is just some terrible nightmare that I’ll wake up from soon. Please…..I need to see you again, I wasn't ready to say goodbye for good back when you left, none of us were, so please….I just need to see you one last time,’  I stopped just at the very peak of the pillar as I gazed up at the white, fluffy clouds above me in the sky.
Tears were still running down my cheeks as I closed my eyes and sighed. I stayed completely still for a minute, as I was ready to just fall to the hard concrete below me. My head would probably crack open, and I’d no doubt die from the impact on my body, but I didn’t care about that now, all I cared about was seeing Kid again. I just needed to see him one more time.
“MAKA!” I gasped and opened my eyes as I heard my named being called out.
“Maka, come away from the edge please,” I sighed heavily when I realised that it was only my weapon calling from behind me.
“Come here, Maka,” Soul urged me to turn around and come away from the edge of the pillar, as I could hear his footsteps coming closer to me as they became louder and more clearer, with every small step that he made.
“I can’t,” Was all I replied with as I didn’t even bother to turn to my weapon.
“Listen I know it must be hard for you to believe that Kid’s gone, and I know you don’t want to believe it, but we can talk about that later-
“NO!” I cut Soul off as I screamed back at him, and more tears began to stream down my cheeks.
“Listen Maka you don’t have to do this, this isn't the way for you to deal with all this, please just come away from the edge,” Soul pleaded as I could hear that he was just a few inches behind me.
“I need to see him again, just for a second,” I whispered, not really caring if Soul heard me or not as I closed my eyes again and sighed slightly.
I let myself go limb and could feel myself falling slightly forward, but just before my feet left the edge of the long and thin pillar, I felt Soul grab my hand and pull me away from the edge, as he wrapped his arms around me and held me in a tight embrace.
My eyes snapped open as I looked to my weapon and could suddenly feel my heart pounding in my chest for a minute, “Let’s go home Maka, okay” I heard Soul say to me in a calming voice as he rubbed my back gently.
Soul walked me off and away from the roof pillar as he wrapped an arm around my shoulders, and held onto me tightly. My shoulders began to shake violently as I let small, slight sobs escape my lips.
Writer’s POV:
Once the two were back in the school, Soul pulled out his mobile phone and called up Tsubaki, “Hey, I found her,” He stated with a slight smile as he looked to his distraught Meister.
“You did? Oh thank goodness,” Soul heard Tsubaki sigh with relief as he could tell that the other weapon must have been terribly worried until now.
“Yeah listen I'm going to take her back home for now alright?” Soul stated.
“Okay you’ll call us if you need anything yeah?” Tsubaki asked.
“Yeah, sure,” Soul answered as he ended the call with a small ‘goodbye’ to Tsubaki, before he put his phone back into his pocket and sighed, while he looked to his devastated Meister, who was now shaking uncontrollably all over as she stood completely still, like she had just seen a ghost or something.
“Come on then Maka, let’s get you home,” Soul stated before he took his Meister in his arms and stared to carry her out of the school, and to their small apartment.
‘Kid, I'm so sorry,’ Maka thought before she buried her head in her weapon’s shoulder and started to cry again, while he carried her to their home.
