Well I only have one thing to say and that is I'm sorry.
I've been busy lately, life at home is getting really stressful, but I definitely will not abandon something I already started.
Disclaimer: I do not own Soul Eater, but it would be cool if I did ^-^
Here's the next chapter :),
...
The girls had held in their tears throughout the day. The green eyed girl refused to give into her emotions and hid in what she truly felt, like she did sometimes, all though most times she knew she could confide in her partner. The raven haired girl made sure to smile for her partner for as many times as she could for the last time throughout the day. The pinkette spoke more than the usual daily words she said to her partner, she would be strong for him. The twins made sure their last day with the grim reaper was a memorable one, they hoped the best for him in his position as a shinigami.
Now it was time, to start their new life in New York city for two years.
The Thompson sisters knew people that would let them crash their place for a while there. They would teach the other girls the life style in New York.

Maka sighed as she lost another game to her red eyed partner. The huge red words appeared on the screen: Game Over, player 1 wins.
"Why the sudden urge to play? You knew I'd win." Soul chuckles lightly. The partners were sitting side by side on the couch with a game controller in each of their hands.
Maka smiled but did not answer. "Hey Soul, do you want to play some basketball?" Soul's eyes widened. His eyebrows shot up in surprise. He put the controller down on the coffee table then faced his best friend. "Okay, now you have to tell me what's up, you never want to play video games or basketball. Is something wrong?" His face expression was one of pure concern. Maka pressed the button and started a new game, so of course her partner would get his controller to avoid losing.
"...Maka?" Soul still hadn't dropped the subject. The green eyed girl gave one tiny sigh but kept her eyes glued straight ahead. Her fingers began moving rapidly, her character began catching up in level to the other one. "Nothing's wrong Soul, I just- I just wanted to be 'cool' for once." She sent a side glance and gave the albino a smile.
Soul grinned and looked ahead at the TV screen. His grin faded, he knew Maka had been lying, Maka Albarn doesn't care about people's opinions on her, he thinks. Soul's eyes widened again as Maka's character beat his to a pulp.
"Oh yay, I win. In your face Mr. 'Cool Guy'." Maka said pointing at the red eyed boy to her right. Soul rolled his eyes, "You just got lucky Albarn." He grinned.

The pinkette sighed as she typed on her laptop. Her novel was going along well, and this made her glad the readers were enjoying it. The romance, the emotion, the strange new feelings the main character was experiencing, were all based on her actual feelings in real life. The usually gloomy pinkette had a shy smile on her face as she poured the feelings she felt for a boy into the words and paragraphs. The boy she had a 'small' crush on, however, never seemed to notice her.
But if someone looked close enough, they would notice he actually did care about her. His name? Well it is Ragnarok.
He's a boy with brown messy hair, gray eyes with unique tiny 'x's on the pupil. He is tall and muscular, and what his usual wear is: a black sleeveless shirt with a collar similar to a turtleneck going around it, and spikes sticking out of it, dark blue jeans, black combat boots, he wears white gloves with thin black lines running along each finger and wrist. He also had two silver cuffs on each wrist with spikes sticking out of them as well, and his hair has white pins at each side of his bangs, crossing to form an 'x'.
Most girls considered him a 'hot guy' however his attitude always drove them away. Most who didn't know him well feared him and stayed clear of his presence. Ragnarok didn't mind one bit, as he so often told Crona: "Who cares about what people think of me? I don't need them, I have you, you shy idiot." His tone was harsh but Crona still smiled at this while he grinned.
The pinkette would miss him but in the end, their relationship had a very slow progress. He was to oblivious about his feelings, and she was too shy. However this would change, Crona decided she would gain confidence in her actions and words while she was away, and maybe when she came back, just maybe, would she tell Ragnarok her feelings. But until then, she would also get to be free, her inner voice would finally have the freedom, and it would be heard.

Tsubaki was spending her last day with Black*Star well. She constantly flashed a smile so that her friend would not suspect a thing. That was unnecessary since he was one of the most dense beings on this planet. But perhaps not as dense as everyone thinks. Yes he was unaware of the feelings he harbored for the camellia flower, and that she him, and maybe he could be quite a clueless idiot in certain situations, but when it came to his partner, one could say he knew her like the palm of his hand.
He had noticed a change in her behavior lately. Whether it was a good thing or bad thing, the bluenette wasn't sure. He noticed his partner was still as calm as ever except she wasn't much of a 'doormat' anymore. He didn't get away with his schemes as easily as before. She now took control of his 'godly' antics better than before and convinced him to stop the usual trouble he made.
Black*Star smiled at this, my loyal disciple has become more powerful. Not as powerful as my godly self, but getting close. He thought this as he did his homework. wait, why am I wasting my precious time doing this stupid homework? He smacked his forehead, dammit Tsubaki, you're becoming more dominant over your god than for your own good.
Black*Star stood up and walked into the kitchen where his partner was happily cooking with a smile on her face. She noticed his arrival and smiles wider, "Oh, hello Black*Star. Is there something you need?" Black*Star had come to complain to her but his mouth had gone dry. He found himself (surprisingly) having trouble over how to say his complaint.
He raised his arm and put his hand behind his neck. Since when does she have so much power over me? He looked up and held her indigo gaze. He bit his lip, he couldn't do it, he couldn't deny her, she is Tsubaki, she's...special.
He let out a sigh and dropped his arm to hang loosely by his side. "Is the godly lunch almost ready?" He asked with a smile. She nodded, "Yup just give it five more minutes."

The pinkette sighed as she typed on her laptop. She knew once she left she would miss her partner and him her. She hoped that when she went away she could gain confidence, boost her self esteem a bit, and let her inner voice be heard.
The boy of her thoughts was her friend and partner, some wouldn't call him a friend... well let's just say their relationship is complicated.
"Crona." The pinkette slammed her laptop closed at the voice of her partner on the other side of the bedroom door. "Um yes?" Crona called over. "Have you seen my bag of See's candies I bought yesterday?" Crona felt her lips quirk up slightly, her partner may be rude and rebellious but he always reminded her of a child who had a major sweet tooth. "Oh y-you left it o-on the table." She stammered. "Thanks." She barely caught his thanks but she was sure she heard it.
Crona had grown fond of her partner, they'd been in their little complex relationship since kids. Although Ragnarok didn't really show it, he too, cared for his partner. Though he coated his words in a harsh tone, if you squint, you can see the true meaning hidden behind his words.
I'm going to miss him... well maybe not that much Crona thought. She was getting tired of his tendencies to tease her constantly, she began to doubt that her childish partner would ever mature, he sure could be scary sometimes, and maybe intimidating to others, but inside he really was just a child.
The pinkette let out a small sigh and opened her laptop again. She glanced sideways at the light purple color of the suit case peaking out of it's hiding spot in the closet.
Just one more hour until it was time.

"Patty, Liz, clean up this mess immediately." The black and white haired teenage reaper put his hands on his hips as he glared at the havoc the lounge they were in had become. The wallpaper had marks of what looked like wheels running along them. The long white couch was flipped over and one end was on top of the other couch making some sort of ramp. There was furniture stacked and forming a complex arrangement of some sort of monument done by Patty.
Liz popped up from behind the couch, a helmet on her head. Kid arched an eyebrow at it and Liz's now messy hair and slightly dirty face. She pushed the skate board under the couch with her foot so that Kid wouldn't see it. She took off her helmet and let it fall to the ground beside her.
"What were you two doing in here?" Kid looked around.
Patty stacked one last book on top of the structure she had built. "Done. No you can use this to do that cool trick you were talking about sis." She smiled happily. Liz chuckled nervously while reaching a hand to the back at her neck.
Patty finally seemed to notice Kid was standing behind her. "Oops." She laughed nervously while Kid let his arms hang loose on his sides, "I can't leave you two alone without you creating some sort of skate park in one of the lounges." He said this as he looked around the wide room. He looked up at the ceiling and walls to find the mark of his skateboard on it. He instantly knew what had happened, well the main idea of it anyways.
"Who tried using my skateboard? And where is it?" Kid asked looking from one sister to the other.
Liz looked away. She had tried using the flying mode on the reaper's skateboard, it didn't end well but it sure as hell was fun.
Kid sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "You guys really need to be more responsible, one of you could have gotten injured." He scolded them.
Liz felt a surge of teenage rebellion building up in the pit of her stomach. "Kid, we're not children anymore, we just wanted to have some fun. Why are you such a buzz kill?" She crossed her arms and furrowed her eyebrows. Kid's eye twitched.
"I'm just saying you two should be more serious, you have to know there's consequences to everything you do." Kid said, his golden eyes boiling with anger.
Patty felt a vein pop up on her forehead at how the young reaper was talking to her sister. "You have no room to talk Kiddo. You do stupid things sometimes too. You destroyed anubis, remember? You may be serious when it comes to other stuff but that doesn't apply when symmetry gets involved. You're just a spoiled brat who can't handle it when their perfect little world is set off balance."
Patty normally wouldn't talk like this but she could grow really defensive when someone picked an argument with her sister, she always ended up choosing her side. Liz sighed at the how a scold turned into an argument. This was secretly the last day with the reaper and they didn't want to spend it arguing. Patty sighed with a sad look in her eyes, she knew that if they ended their last day on argument, once they left, Kid would feel guilty or even blame himself for them leaving.
"I didn't mean that Kid," the blonde murmured and took a step closer to her friend who was like a brother to her. He cast his golden eyes away from the sisters' stare. He raised a hand and rubbed the back of his neck. "I apologize too..."
...
It was time, time to leave their old lives behind and to live a new one. Just a new adventure.
Liz clutched the strap of her bag going over the opposite shoulder of where the bag was actually at. "Are you ready Patty?" She whispered to Patty who was looking for something. They were currently in the huge bedroom they shared -getting ready to leave. It was only four pm but they had to leave a bit earlier to not have to catch the train taking off at midnight. They had many stops and a certain route they would have to take.
Patty found what she was looking for, it was a giraffe plushie, one that Kid have given her during the winter holidays. She carefully made her way through the stuff that were lying on the floor due to her little search. She reached the doorway where her sister was waiting. Kid was currently in their library doing what-not. This was their chance to leave. And they took it.
...
They silently closed the two huge doors to Gallows behind them. Liz and Patty exchanged sad smiles and took a step down the front porch. Eventually they were standing outside the huge iron gates. They looked back at the huge mansion, reminiscing in all the happy and sad memories they had in the first home that accepted them. They gave a small sigh simultaneously, Patty clutched the straps of her huge backpack packed with her belongings and things they would need such as cash, toiletries, etc.
"Let's go." Liz murmured and Patty nodded.

The ash blonde girl leaning against a wall looked to her left as the sisters arrived. Maka smiled, "Hi guys." The black haired girl with a ponytail stood up straight and smiled at the sisters, "You guys made it, now we're just missing Crona."
"H-hello." Tsubaki and Maka turned around to face the pinkette who was dragging her rolling purple suit case behind her with one hand. Maka looked around at the group of girls.
"Now it's time for the next step, a disguise." She reached inside her green duffel bag and took out tiny plastic light blue square packages. Maka handed one to each girl.
She opened it and took out a small blue pill. She swallowed it and grimaced at the bitter taste it sent down her throat. Liz looked down at the blue pill laying on the palm of her right hand, "What is this?"
"It prevents anyone with Soul Perception, like me, to be able to see our souls and recognize us." Maka explained as the other girls gulped down the pill.
"Aren't they illegal?" Patty asked after she had swallowed her's, giving the green eyed girl a curious glance. Maka smiled and nodded, "I have my ways."
She began taking a few steps ahead as the girls gathered their belongings, "Come on girls we still need a make over, it will only be temporarily until we know we won't be found." The girls nodded.
...
Maka grinned at her reflection, she looked to her right at the girl with red curled hair and bangs. "What do you think Crona? Isn't Laya the best?"
Laya is a friend Maka met a few months ago. Maka told her her plan to escape and Laya offered her and the girls help in getting the perfect disguise that would make them unrecognizable.
Crona smiled and looked ahead at her own reflection, she now had red extensions while the rest of her pink hair was dyed red. She now had neatly cut red bangs and was wearing blue lenses. As her outfit she wore a fancy black hat, mid thigh white dress with a black belt going around the waist, and black flats. The red head nodded, "She is the best."
The girls were sitting in salon chairs. Crona looked at Maka who now had layered black hair with side bangs. Maka had decided against wearing contact lenses but had mascara put on her lashes making them black. Maka now wore a white button up with the buttons of the collar undone and the bottom tucked in, she had a high waisted blue plaid skirt with black suspenders hanging off at the sides, she wore black combat boots (different from the ones she usually wears) that had shoe laces going in a criss cross pattern all the way to the top, she also had a black leather jacket on, and white head phones (with black shinigami skulls) going around her collar and neck, and black leather fingerless gloves on her hands.
"Girls meet the new (temporary) Thompson sisters." Laya announced walking into the room with dressers, mirrors, salon chairs, and small changing stalls. From behind the brunette with amber eyes wearing a white uniform, came the Thompson sisters. Liz had the left side of her hair braided while the rest went around her neck and hanged on her right shoulder. Her hair was now a darker brown. She wore green-blue lenses, had a red top with one short sleeve on her right shoulder while the other had a strap, she wore high waisted denim shorts, and black leather high heel boots reaching a little above her knees.
Maka and Crona clapped then Patty came into view. Patty wore a sleeveless pale pink collared top tucked in, and a high waisted black pleat skirt, she also wore black low heels. Her hair was still blonde except it had extensions but only enough to reach past her shoulders. Her bangs were turned into side bangs. Patty also had violet lenses covering her once blue eyes. The happy blonde gave her friends a smile. "Looks like we're ready." She announced.
"Wait, Tsubaki still hasn't come out." Maka said. As if summoned by her name the raven haired girl came out of the other room. Her hair was still black but was shortened. The ends bounced up in curls. The raven haired girl now wore a sleeveless white top with with three small yellow stars on one corner, denim short shorts, black thigh high socks, and short boots with straps crossing and going around the front, and she also had brown lenses covering her once indigo irises.
Laya looked around at each girl, "Looks like you girls are ready." Maka and Crona stood up and grabbed their stuff, along with the other girls, that were sitting against the left wall. "Once you're in New York, will you join their branch of the DWMA?" Laya asked Maka.
Maka shrugged, "Probably, the pills we took only last eleven months so I brought extra, we can last for quite a while without being found out." Laya grinned, "I see, anyways you best get going. The 6:00 train leaves pretty soon."
...
"This is it girls, after this train we take another, then we get to take a helicopter to the next stop, from their we take the subway and arrive at our destination." Maka said as their bags were taken by the workers to be put into another cart.
"A helicopter?" Tsubaki asked. Liz and Patty and Crona exchanged glances. "Like I said, I have my ways." Maka smiled as the girls got on the train. They were seated, ten minutes later the train started, and their new adventure began.

...[The next day, after school]
"Soul, Kid, Ragnarok!" The blue haired boy ran up to meet the said boys. He had been dying to talk to them all school day long. Soul, Kid, and Ragnarok picked up their pace and met Black*Star at the foot of the DWMA stairs.
"Tsubaki, she's been missing since yesterday, some of her stuff is gone from her room too!" Black*Star said panting as he tried catching his breath after running down the stairs. Soul sighed sadly, "Yeah, Maka's been gone too,...I haven't seen her since yesterday afternoon after I met up with you to play basketball. " Soul scratched the back of his head nervously.
"I was hoping the girls were having a sleep over." Kid said looking down to the floor, then casting his gaze to Ragnarok whose expression was thoughtful, "I haven't seen Crona either, you know what this means, right?"
The other boys nodded simultaneously.
"They ran away." "They were kidnapped by aliens."
The boys glared at Black*Star.
