Kid's P.O.V.

I could feel a suffocating feeling come over me as I looked at the beautiful, pigtailed Meister in front of me. Maka.... What happend? All I know is I felt something tugging on my soul when Maka and I tried our Soul Resonance.

"Maka?" She hasn't said anything since we tried to touch. My father and Professor Stein were still in the Death Room, talking about how to solve the new problem. Maka tilts her head to look at me and gives me a sad smile. Her usually bright emerald eyes are dim with hurt. My chest aches seeing her pain and I'm about to brush her cheek but pull away. I place my hands, now in fists, at my sides firmly.

"I'm okay. I just wish... It's just..." Maka's sentence dangles but her meaning is perfectly clear.

"Maka? I'm so sorry. If only I could have noticed something felt off sooner then I had." I say softly. Maka's head snaps up to look at me.

" You felt it too?" She whispers. I hear fear in her voice and my fists tighten.

Lord Death's P.O.V.

"Did you see that?" Professor Stein says as he turns the giant screw in his head.

" It seems as though their soul compatibility is stronger than we oringinally thought. It isn't strong enough though and in their current position, I don't think they'd be able to handle practicing with each other as a pair. I also don't think this problem is just going to go away. They're connection has to be stronger. Now we have to figure out how to do that without having them in contact with each other."

"What if... we try to mke their relationship with each other stronger. That seemed to work when maka and Soul had the same problem. Would that work Stein?" The Professor looks at me and thinks a little harder on it.

"Well, it's worth a try at lest. Let's ask Maka and Kid some questions first before we do anything." I nod and call for my son and Maka. This situation is exactly like the one I was in with Kid's mother. I hope we can fix it before things get out of hand....

Maka's P.O.V.

 "Kid." He looks at me sadly and frowns. I can see his pain and I want to cry. I remember what I had said before we went to the Death Room. How we didn't have to rush things. But, now, we can't even touch let alone hold hands or other couple like things. Are we even a couple?

"Yes?" He says. His voice has a hint of worry to it.

"Could you sense that thing, tugging at your soul like I did? It seemed, like madness almost." I shivered and squeezed my hands into fists. Kid looks at me concerned and I can see how much this situation hurts him. I swallow and Kid puts his hand on my leg where the dress covers my bare skin. I can feel  sort of vibration from his near touch but it doesn't hurt.

"I did. You would know better if it was madness though. I haven't completely felt it like you have but, the little I could feel was..." Kid's eye darken and I know what he meant to say. The feeling of the madness isn't something tangible but it feel as though a cold, damp liquids slides over you're soul and you are inwardly drowning.

I look at his hand on my leg and so desperately want to hold it in mine. I refrain and insted, rest my head on his covered shoulder.

"Hey kid. Don't worry okay? I'm sure everything will be okay. We'll figure this out together." Kid nods and kneels in front of me, removing his hand from my leg and looking up into my eyes as I sit on the bench. His gold eyes are set with determination. Kid smiles and his whole face seems to light up. My heart flutters inside my chest. So beautiful...
