maka: why are you here?Soul...

Soul transforms into a scythe.

red: its the big streets .I can be at anywhere I want.

maka: you are in death city.Why?

red: I have my own business to do.

maka: what buisness?!! Kill more people?!!!

red: its none of your buisness. Don't follow me.

maka: tsk . You're good right?!! You're...one of us...right?

red: of course not. I am on my own side.Right from the beginning to the end.

Red turns away to leave when maka calls out 'wait!!!'

'what now?' she turns her head around.

maka: kid...kid misses you...

red:I will repeat one last time. I am on my own side. One more thing. Both of you like each other neh.

maka: *blush* what's...with the...sudden question...

soul: *blush* don't ask questions like that! !! Its not cool!!!

red: hurry up and get together already. You'll regret if you don't. Both of you dumbass.

Red walks away disappearing into the crowd.

tsubaki: hehe.Seems so.

liz walks in 'kid!!! Look at this!!! A ball!!!'

blue follows in after patty 'hi everyone...'

patty: We all get to go to a ball!!! You??

blue: eh...me too.

kid:well...it wouldn't be bad to get some relaxation in this tense situation. _____________________________________

'ohohoho... welcome to the ball made only for you!!' the emcee said as they entered through the door. ' I am rickie.'

'hi...I am invited too.' a little girl waved.

soul: who is she?

rickie:doesn't matter!!!Let's start this!!! Now... first and foremost. Clothes!!!

A rack on wheels wheeled to their front.

rickie: girls with dresses and boys with suits. Take your pick.

maka: eh...!!!

rickie: don't worry its free!!!

tsubaki: well... I guess it would be fine than...

Everyone picks their clothing and goes to change.

rickie: why are you not going?  kozo. (kid in literal meaning. Not name.)

kid: don't feel like.

rickie: don't make it hard for me. My job is to make all of you here happy.

kid: who gave you that kind of shit job?Its not my buisness.

rickie: maa... I will really get beat to a pulp so please...just do me a favour.

kid: alright than...

They were all done and got out of the changing rooms.

rickie: now...the music!!!

' classic music?!!!!' maka, soul, black star shouted.

rickie:its a ball.Of course ball music.

blue: erm...may I have a dance.

kid: sure...

Kid said it as if it was like a obligation. Kid put his arm around blue's waist and the other hand on blue's shoulder.  Blue blushed.

Blue shyly did the same. 'arigato...for taking the dance...'

kid pov:

I had to face her while dancing . Blue hair...black eyes...other than that...she looks so much like red.

blue pov:

Kid stretched out his hand from his shoulder and cupped it softly to my cheek. I...blushed...

His hand was slipping off my cheek but I held it and made it stay.

kid: blue...you...should let go.

Our steps stopped.

blue: red...its her isn't it...?

kid: gomen...

He looks away from me.

I push his head to make him gaze at me again.It was soft but guilty. I could see that he missed red a lot.

Maybe I should just give up on kid. Kid...he really loves red.And me...its just a crush.

blue: its ok to cast your emotions you have on red on me.I won't mind.

kid: I won't do such thing. Its disgusting.

blue: I know you love red . But...you should know that she's...gone.

kid: blue...

He hugs me and I could hear snifflings.He was crying. It made me cry too. I too...didn't want to admit the face red is gone.

I may hate red for taking kid but she's my sister. I didn't want her to leave my side . She's always been protecting me...

maka pov:

We were dancing in each other's arms.Awkward and shy... my cheeks blushing I could feel.

So silent...I don't know what to say.

soul: you...look beautiful.

maka: arigato.You too.

Suddenly I stepped on something onto the long hem of my dress and I fell backwards but soul grabbed tight on my waist and pulled me in.

I land hard in his embrace and I was blushing like mad. He let go of me and turned away.

kid: gomen.

He was going to walk away but I grabbed onto his wrist.

maka: soul...

soul pov:

I turn around.

soul: maka...

She tightened her grip on me.

maka: please... promise me...you won't die in the incoming war.If I die...run.

I walk to her front and close to her face.

soul: we're partners. We die and run together.

maka: soul...

She hugs me. 'arigato. '

soul: maka...I...I love you.

maka: soul...me too.

kid pov:

The ball ended and we all decide to head back.

'can I go with you guys?'

maka: erm...sure.

We headed back and...

That was when we saw red and the bunch of witches and people of shibusen standing right in front of each other.

berry: what are you doing here?!!

red: *smiles* I see you're doing a good job as the head of shibusen shadow.

berry: tsk.Answer the question!!!

red: *smiles* tell shinigami sama. My job is done. This is the remianing core.

'ahhhhh!!!!' red screams in agony and she collapses to the floor. A black sphere comes out from her mouth.  It floats in the air.

Red slowly and painfully , exhausted, she kneels and smiles.That warm smile...why?

She stabs herself with a dagger.

Red!!! I run to her side.

'sayonara...' she collapses in a pool of blood.

yukiri: red...red nee-chan!!!

Yukiri tries to run forward but berry grabs onto her collar.

yukiri: she's not harmful!!!!

Berry lets go and yukiri runs to red's side.

yukiri: red nee chan....don't die!!!

red stretches out her hand and her bloody hand softly reaches for my cheek. Red... my tears fall. 

red:*smiles* take care of blue.

Her bloody hand slipped of my cheek.

kid: red!!! Red!!! aahhhh!!!
