Chapter 1: Enjoying the Evening
"Black*Star! Pass!" Patty shouted, waving her hands excitedly above her head. Black*Star glanced over to double-check that she was open and passed the ball. Successfully catching it, Patty made a mad dash to the basket. Soul lunged at her and tried to snatch the ball away, but she merely jumped away from him and made a bee-line to the basketball hoop.
"Gotcha!" She giggled as she jumped in the air and dunked the ball into the basket. "Booyah!" She boasted, dangling from the basketball hoop like a monkey on a banch.
Soul sighed, "That makes it 17-15, we're down by two points, Liz." He stood up out of his "ready position and walked over to Liz, preparing a battle strategy. They huddled and started talking, while Patty and Black*Star were doing an obnoxious victory dance. Tsubaki clapped from the side lines, as the referee, and applauded both teams for their hard work.
Meanwhile, Kid and Maka were happily lounging on a bench right behind the court lines. They were laughing at Patty and Black*Star's silly dance.
"What a bunch of goof-balls." Maka giggled, teasing about her friends' behavior lovingly. Kid couldn't help but nod and agree.
"It wouldn't be the same without them I have to say." Kid smirked.
Kid and Maka were on the side-lines because, to be honest, they both didn't care much for basketball; Maka couldn't understand the rules (she was a bookworm after all.) and Kid couldn't handle any plays his team would assemble (nothing was symmetrical.). So, they decided to sit this one out and watch the others play the game.
It was a beautiful Saturday night from what Kid could see; there was a slight breeze that rustled their hair when it picked up briefly, the sun was laughing quietly as it slowly made its descent down to the horizon, and the temperature was a lovely 78 degrees. Kid had an eye for detail, so he absorbed these facts one by one, but he also couldn't overlook the fact that he was spending the lovely evening next to this ash-blond, green-eyed beauty he's been swooning over for a few months now.
"Kid?" He heard her soft voice ask, "Is something wrong?" She was waving her hand in front of my face. 'Crap, I must have spaced out.' He fretted.
"What? Oh, no! hahaha, I just got a little too absorbed in the game" He laughed and then paused, grimacing,"…nothings symmetric about it…" With that, his eye started to twitch as he slowly did begin to see the asymmetry; it was starting to drive him nuts.
Maka noticed his OCD behavior kicking in and tugged his light jacket, catching his attention. She pointed to the road that led to Shibusen's library and asked: "Hey, do you want to get out of here? I'm kind of getting bored… we could go to the library and look up more information about the Kishin, maybe?" She asked politely enough, but she blushed at the end and continued tentatively." T-that is…if you want to…" 'Wow, that was so lame…' She scolded herself in her head. She's had a crush on Kid for a week or so, but she's so inexperienced in love that she doesn't even know how to ask a guy on an official date yet.
His golden eyes locked onto her until he closed them as he smiled and laughed: "Sure, let's blow this popsicle stand." She laughed too, that was even lamer then her invitation to go to the library.
"Hey, Soul, Patty, Liz, Black*Star, Tsubaki," Kid shouted to everyone, catching their attention. "We're getting kind of bored so we're gunna go to the library, is that cool with everyone?"
Soul grinned and held up a thumbs-up. "Sure, man, go for it!"
"That's cool with us!" Patty giggled, including Liz in her agreement.
"Have fun!" Tsubaki smiled.
"Aw, fine, don't watch me act like a star." Black*Star pouted.
And with that, Kid and Maka headed toward the library, in appreciative silence. It was nice to walk without talking sometimes. All you need is company, right?
But little did they know that they weren't alone.
A lone man was shuffling his feet as he walked silently behind them. Wildly but quietly, at random moments, something invisible to the naked eye caused the man to laugh. His soul was deep inside the madness that was leaking into him. Deep inside this thick blackness that contaminated this citizen's soul, three eyes remained in his thoughts, seeing what the citizen sees; two teenagers walking down the street, headed for a large old building. The citizen followed behind them, controlled by something other than his mind.
Deep in the Himalayas, in a temple tucked away on a large cliff, Asura, the ruler of madness, sat up, agitated.
'What the hell is wrong with me?' he questioned himself. He had been using a man from Shibusen to spy on Maka for a while, as well as other beings like bugs, birds, and even pets. Everything was going great, he was learning more about her, more importantly about the power she alone held to defeat him. He observed her movements and daily occurrences, catching glimpses of her courage as well as kindness. Nothing had bothered him when he began to watch the meister go about her days peacefully, but about two weeks ago, he had started to become irritated when ever another male was around her. He discovered that he had become attracted to this puny girl.
He often saw her at times when she was alone: like when she was in the bath or reading a book, and he couldn't help but notice her soft features, attractive face, and strong and lithe body. These times had become his favorite times to observe her; often for selfish reasons. These feelings had led him to his present anger.
Asura's anger had not been too bad until about a month ago, for that was when Death the Kid had been growing closer to her. He saw the way Kid looked at Maka as well as how much time they began spending with eachother. With him so close to his Maka, Asura felt threatened. 'Why does she enjoy spending so much time with him…she doesn't smile like that to anyone else.'
Asura slammed his fists onto the cold ground. 'Why-", slam. 'Why-', SLAM. 'Why-', SLAM.
Ever since Kid had become close to her he found himself craving to meet her and steal her away from Shibusen City and keep her captive to enjoy her company himself. But for now he was thinking about breaking Death's son's neck in half. He had become protective of her. 'What do they call this feeling…' Asura thought, skimming through his past recollections of his life. "Ah, jealousy. I'm jealous…' Asura twitched, nervous about Kid bringing her to the library. 'What Is he planning?' His bandages wavered and shivered in his anger. He swiftly got up and stomped his way to the entrance of the temple. He wrapped his head bandages around his skull and stepped into the freezing mountain winds. His striped shirt and black jeans blew violently around him. He jumped off the ledge and started soaring towards Shibusen City.
"I swear if he tries anything with Maka I'm going to kill him and all of his precious friends." Asura growled.
Whoooooo first chapter finished! Asura is angry? Who could've guess he would be! Review if you'd like!
