Accusation

"WHO TOOK IT?!" Shizuo roared, causing for the walls to shake and the hallways to go silent with the murmurs of bystanders. "WAS IT YOU, SHINRA?!"

"Whoah, whoah, whoah!" Shinra exclaimed in defense. "I don't even know what you're talking about, Shizuo. Did you lose something?"

"Kadota?!" he growling, turning now to face his next target.

"Hey, man, I wouldn't take anything of yours without asking first. Have you asked—"

"Looking for this, Shizu-chan?" Izaya giggled, interrupting Kadota's question, presumably being about him. Twirling a rather brilliantly colored omamori* about his index finger, the raven-haired boy wore his all-to-infamous smirk, a notion that sent flames racing through Shizuo's veins.

"Izaya, you give that back RIGHT NOW!" Shizuo demanded, stomping forward.

"But Shizu-chan, it's so pretty! I think I'll keep it for myself," Izaya smiled, holding the charm close to his chest as if claiming it as his possession.

"IIIIZAAAAYAAAA! That was a gift from Kasuka, you better give it back right now, or I'll rip your stupid hands off!" Shizuo shouted.

"Kasu-chan, ne? This must be really, really special to you then, huh?"

"Hey, Izaya, why don't you just give it back to him," Kadota intervened. "You know it's important to him, so just hand it back."

With an arched brow of confusion, Izaya shook his head and scoffed. "Who's side are you even on, Dotachin?"

"Obviously not yours."

Izaya's expression turned blank, feeling now that he was fighting against a number that he couldn't quite handle. With an annoyed sigh, Izaya extended his hand that held the omamori for Shizuo to reclaim it.

He had all but snatched his precious gift out of the raven's palm, speaking lowly as he said, "Don't you ever think about taking this ever again, you hear me? I'll kill you, if you do." Storming off to class, Shizuo carefully slipped the trinket back into his pocket, checking the inside of his school pants every so often, a little too wary now of the "thieves" that lurked about.

"Tch, that was no fun at all," Izaya complained, folding his arms immaturely.

"I'm not condoning your actions, but if you're going to steal things from him, try not to take the things that he was gifted to by Kasuka. You see how he gets," Kadota said, scratching nervously at the back of his head.

"Yeah, whatever. His brotherly love is just so...ugh. It's so creepy," Izaya said, his face wrinkling in distaste.

"Come on, guys, we're going to get into big trouble if we don't get to class!" Shinra whined, his arms flailing about in some kind of frenzy.

"You go on ahead," Izaya said, waving to two off as he walked away in the opposite direction.

"Ehhh?! Where are you going?"

"I feel like skipping. Tell the teacher I felt sick."

"Nuh-uh! Tell her yourself!"

"Don't feel like it. Laterrr," Izaya giggled, winking at Shinra and Kadota as he pranced off down the hall.

Rounding the corner, Izaya smiled far too deviously for anyone to deny that he was up to no good.

'Now, let's see what other treasures Shizu-chan holds dear.'

*omamori:

Omamori (御守 or お守り omamori) are Japanese amulets (charms, talismans) commonly sold at religious sites and dedicated to particular Shintodeities as well as Buddhist figures, and may serve to provide various forms of luck or protection. [ source: Wikipedia ]

Hello! Chappy again! :D

Blahhh! This is a day late! To keep up my pace, after I come home from work today, I will be posting Day 3's story, as well! (:

Today's theme was "accusation", something that I found a little hard to write, seeing as one of my other stories, "Chasing Death", was all about accusations! XD

Still, I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. Albeit short, it's just enough, right? :D

Anyways! Thank you for taking the time to read and I hope you've enjoyed! :D
