Maka's POV

After we made it out of that prison and into death city May called for some help. Well we didn't actually make it in death city we were outside it.

"Oh no, this can't be happening!" May said in a panicked tone. She started rambling on about how she left her medical kit in that prison and how someone needs to go to the city and find help." But who would know a lot about death city?" She waved her arms in exaggeration.

"Um May? I know where death city is. I actually lived there before I was kidnapped." I said a little shyly rubbing my arm. I didn't feel like talking about my past since Soul is in a major part of my past. And Soul really doesn't like me and then I'll drown in tears.

Who wants to see that.

"Maka? Are you sure? You're pretty hurt from that fight back there. You're actually the most wounded out of all if us and you can't see clearly." May said still panicking.

I rolled my eyes "May I'll be fine, you worry to much. And for my eyes, I don't need it to find my way to death city. I remember it like the back of my hand" I said smiling at the last part, puting my hand in front of my face like a little kid would. All the memories of me trying to learn how to play basketball and me maka chopping soul and Blackstar, trying not to get dissected by stein, and comforting crona until he could deal with his issues. I sighed at the memories.

"Maka,maka, you still there?" May asked snapping me back to the present.

"Oh yes May I agree fully with your idea and support it 100 percent!" I said with a smile not even sure of what she said. But hey, that's the one thing everyone wants to hear.

"Really? YOU agree that YOU should stay and let someone else go? That's not the Maka I know, but it's okay I know you were deep in thought." she said, I could almost feel her smirk like I did with Mark.

I was blushing bright red with embarrassment. Well at least now I know that's not what everybody wants to be agreed with all the time. I chuckled nervously. "Oh.... yeah I was thinking. I was thinking about my life here and if anyone will recognize me, and if they see me what will I say?" I told May.

"Well, tell them the truth. Now go. You offered to get supplies and I know it will be a waste to try and stop you. So go now before our wounds including yours get infected." she said in a teasing manner jabbing a finger at my gut and pointing forward to motion me to go.

"Alright, alright I'm going" I said with a chuckle while walking away.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've been walking for an hour. My injuries were getting worse. About every ten, twenty minutes the pain was getting worse. "I'll just not think about it. Yeah, that's a good idea, think of... All the great times you had here Maka." I said to myself. So I started thinking of the time we were playing basketball after the Kishin was revived. I chuckled to myself....I could defeat Kishin asura but can't win a game of basketball....How amusing. And how Liz had to stay home because she would mess up her nails if she played. I can't believe Soul dragged me there... I stopped in my tracks. Soul, what would happen if I saw Soul there? Would he acknowledge me or would he act like I never existed? Would he be glad to see me or disgusted? Would he care I was away for four years? All these questions were going through my head. My thoughts were interrupted when I tripped and started rolling down a hill being hit by sage brush and cacti on the way down. I bit my lip to hold back tears. It wasn't the needles that I got from the cacti that hurt or the fact that my leg was in total agony. It was the thought of possibly seeing Soul again. I stopped rolling which meant I finally reached the bottom. I groaned because it still hurt. I turned my head to see a blur coming at me. I couldn't tell who it was and I didn't care to move. Not yet anyway, I was in too much pain at the moment. The figures I saw running towards me became clearer now. They weren't too far away now. I didn't bother using soul perception. If it was a witch i didn't care and plus i couldn't fight, I used up all my energy escaping. Instead I just groaned and closed my eyes trying to shake the pain away. I have to get up I thought. If I don't I could die here and now. But maybe if I don't move they'll think I'm dead and take me to death city or won't pay attention. Yeeeeah I'll stay here.

I was feeling dizzy and my eyes were getting heavy. I caught a glimpse of who the people were in front of me. It was Kid with Liz and Patty in there weapon forms and Blackstar with Tsubaki as a chain scythe, no Soul. I sighed with relief before falling unconscious.

~~~~~~~~3 hours later~~~~~~~

I woke up in the dwma's infirmary and tried to get up but winced in pain. I laid back down closing my eyes. I snapped them back open realizing where I was and what I had to do. I'm in death city and need to get help. I quickly pushed the blankets off of me trying to ignore the pain, but it wasn't working. So each step I took I whimpered a little.

"You should probably lie down, Stein said your wounds were very fatal and that you need your rest and to get healed." a voice said.

" Thank you for worrying about my well being but I need to get help, I have friends a bit outside of death city who are injured also." I took another step wincing.

"Stubborn as ever I see at least I know that hasn't changed, but still the same caring person I once new" another voice said.

I suddenly realized who that voiced belonged to. My eyes widened as I realized it. I jerked my head up in the direction the voice was coming from. "Soul?!" I said before sliding to the floor and out of consciousness again.
