Chapter 1: Crashing Down and Confession

Maka Albarn was currently sitting up on a hill, looking down at the small fishing village she was currently staying at. Maka had been there for two days. Kami had told her she would see her tomorrow, and to wait for her at this little village in her letter. She had just eaten some food, dinner here and breakfast back at home. She missed her home, the laugh sun, the eerie grinning moon. She missed the tall DWMA School, miss her rivalry with Death the Kid, one of her friends, and Ox Ford, member of her group the spartoi (I think thats what it's called...). She missed her friends the most probably, and she will deny it, even missed Black*Star's "godly" outbursts.

But she missed her weapon the most, Soul Eater Evans. She missed his snow-white hair and crimson eyes, his shark teeth that made him quite unique, and his signature grin. She would deny this also; she missed him saying he was the coolest. Because to her, he was. Most of the time anyway.

It was almost time for her to go back to her small hotel and sleep, but she wasn't tired. She had been in Japan for two weeks, and she still wasn't used to the time change from Nevada to Japan. But she jumped to her feet anyway, and started her walk back. It was as she walked past the first house that she first looked up. She gasped immediately, who wouldn't? A tall wave of water was rushing in: about to shallow her world and crush her loved ones, here and in Nevada.

"God no!" Maka gasped. She was using her meister skills to jump and run when she saw a lady struggling with her baby. "Give her to me!" Maka shouted, knowing the woman would have trouble hearing her. The lady, who had black eyes and black hair,saw how fast Maka could run and nodded. She spoke in Japanese but Maka could understand her.

"Find me if I live. Her name is Ai, and mine is Suzie. Go!" she shouted at the end and Maka took off, cradling the baby to her chest. Maka jumped into the air, and the wave descended onto the village, demolishing it.

Soul Eater Evans was ignoring his teacher, Franken Stein. He was turning on the TV saying some tsunami hit some country, but Soul didn't even notice. "And the tsunami hit and destroyed hundreds of small fishing towns here in Japan," the anchorman said, and Soul jumped up.

The screen showed the aftermath of the huge wave, the biggest wave since some random year he couldn't remember. "And here, a young lady was trying to save a young baby." he added, and the screen showed someone very familiar passed out on the ground with a baby curled up next to her, still alive. But barely. "MAKA!" Soul shouted, and everyone gasped. Tsubaki and Liz were holding back tears, hands over their mouths. Patty was singing "the giraffes will save Maka-chan, they like her". Kid was staring at the screen in shock. And not even Black*Star had anything to say. "The lady is now being taken care of by the paramedics. The survival of the mother is not yet known. The lady had taken her, and ran up a hill to try and save the baby, but was still hit by the wave, tossing her and the baby up to the top of the hill, where both clung to life with strength no one will ever have, and are in a life and death situation at the nearest hospital fifty miles away. More on this story later."

"Stein! I need to go to Japan!" Soul shouted, attracting everyone's attention. "I understand, but we have to wait and see," Stein said, and Soul fell to the floor, unable to believe that his beloved meister might die.

A doctor named Asuziki was watching Maka in her room, still passed out. The baby was going to survive, but he wasn't sure about her savior. They had managed to take all of the water out of her lungs, but he damage was done. She would heal, but that was if she lived.

"Doctor, the baby, if the girl wakes up, we must have her tell us who the mother is." a nurse appeared from around the corner. "I know, but I'm not sure if she'll even make the night." Asuziki responded as the nurse walked away to check on another tsunami survivor. "She is in good hands," the nurse left. "I hope so..." Asuziki mutter and continued his watch.
