Chapter 8: Realizing What's Right

*Soul's POV*

The wind blew through my hair. It was nice to finally get some time alone, where i didn't have to think about my problems. If only it were like this everyday. Sadly, life is never fair nor perfect. I sighed and I drifted my motorcycle into a parallel parking position. I liked doing that, since it made me feel cool. I got off my bike and strolled down the path to where you entered the forest and into the park. This place always let me relax. I kept walking and came to a halt, deciding to take in a deep breath of fresh air. Around me, I could sense the life of the small forest. It seemed at peace and for once, i finally felt at peace too. Then I remembered that in this life, there's no such thing as peace. My mind wandered, and so did I. I had reached the exit of the forest and the entrance to the huge park.

A strong breeze came towards me and made my clothing and hair ruffle the same direction as the wind. I closed my eyes to savor the soothing, icy touch the breeze had left on my skin. Childrens' laughter filled the air. I opened my eyes to reveal a group of kids chasing a full grown black and white dog. I began to walk when i noticed a bench and i made my way towards it. I took a seat and stared into the open. There were people strolling down the bricked path together, smiling, laughing, holding hands. That made me remember about Maka. I do miss her, but its just, i cant believe she'd let this happen. Its not like her. Oh wait.... Its mostly Kid's fault. Should i just forgive Maka now and remain uncool with Kid? After all, i really want to talk to Maka again without us having awkward moments. I sighed as my eyes fell upon a couple, holding hands, and holding eachother on the lush grass that sat a long way across from me. Envy burned in my stomach. That's a cool way to be with someone in the park.

Well done man, well done. If only i knew how to use Soul Perception without having Maka to help out. Only when im in my Scythe form and am resonationg with her can i actually hear the soul's wavelength. Id want to see how the guy's soul is like. He must be a more sensitive, yet subtle guy. Who knows. I could be wrong. He could be two faced. I shook my head. I shouldnt interfere with this type of thing. My eyes wandered some more until I felt something bump into my arm. I rubbed at it and looked down to see a football. "Watch where your throwing the ball!" I called out while i was looking down to pick up the football.

"Sorry mister... I cant catch the ball. Im trying to impress this girl by catching a football but i cant seem to catch it. Ive never played football." I sat up and saw a boy with dark brown hair and dark blue eyes. I handed him the ball and stared at him.

"Which girl are you trying to impress?" He turned around and described the girl.

"Shes over there, the one with long, pale brown hair and a light pink ribbon holding some of her hair. Her name is Lynette." He looked at me and i saw that he was slightly blushing. I could tell this one liked her.

"Thats actually a pretty name for a beautiful girl like her. Whats she like?" His eyes brightened as i asked him the question.

"Oh thats easy! She's very sweet and smiles all the time. Sometimes she can be quiet but other times, she's real fun to be around. Mostly every boy in my grade wants her to be theirs. I wont let that happen though because I'm in love with her!"

I couldnt help but grin. "Wow kid, you really are determined. You got spirit. Here's a tip for you. If you want to impress Lynette, dont show off for her. Stick up for her. To me, it sounds like Lynette can be a bit too sweet and can have a hard time sticking up for herself."

"Mr. Your right. She does have a hard time doing that."

"My name is Soul. And i figured."

"What a strange name. I like it. My name is Jason. And i guess. Well thank you, Soul. I hope-" He was cut off by a loud scream. "LYNETTE!" Jason screamed out. I turned to see some girls surrounding Lynette. Jason ran straight to them. He squeezed himself into the middle where he tried to defend Lynette. Suddenly the girls backed away and called out to someone. That's when a bunch of older boys came running towards them.
