Cherry blossom petals fell and graced the soil of a region which is not quite heaven, yet nowhere close to hell. As humans die, they are given the chance to live a peaceful afterlife or become a guardian of death and work in this beautiful area. But don't be fooled by the nice, well-to-do appearance. Inside lie some idiots who have nothing better to do than perform endless shenanigans.

Fire followed the running feet of a tall man while his auburn hair whisked the wind rapidly. He made sure to stop at any door he could find so he could interrogate anyone he found. He turned the corner and stopped at one final door.

"WHERE ARE THEY?!" Yelled the man, his violet eyes beaming with anger. He huffed loudly due to all the running he did.

"Where are they…? Mind telling me what they are?" Asked Tatsumi. He didn't much care for what Tsuzuki was bickering about, but he had nothing to do. The least he could do was aid him with whatever he needed so bad. "MY SWEETS! YOU KNEW THAT!" Answered Tsuzuki, exasperated.

Sighing, Tatsumi walked over to where Tsuzuki was standing and replied "You can't be too loose with your things, Tsuzuki. You're lucky it was just sweets. Next time it could be your car keys or something."

"Uhhh…never mind. I'll go outside and retrace my steps from the bakery to now."

Tatsumi smiled at Tsuzuki's response. Tsuzuki was a bit dense, but this was actually a great idea. "I'll come with you to make sure you don't do anything stupid."

"I'm not gonna do anything #;!?# stupid! So keep your #;!?# comments to your #;!?# self! Do you think I like #;!?# yelling at you?! Do you?!"

Tatsumi's expression made the glasses fall from off of his face. He rubbed his ears generously, as to make sure his hearing was correct. "Excuse me, what?"

"I said I'm glad you like my idea." Tsuzuki answered while grinning like cherub.

While trying to retrace his steps, Tsuzuki bumped into his partner. "Oof! Hey watch it bub. Oh…Hisoka."

"WHY THE #;!?# DID YOU #;!?# BUMP ME?! I OUGHT TO BEAT YOUR #;!?# WITH A #;!?# , WRAP IT AROUND YOUR #;!?#, AND PUT DUCKT TAPE OVER IT!!

Tsuzuki looked up at him with a mixture of awe and horror. He flicked his ear several times over and told him "I'm sorry. What did you say?"

"YOU HEARD ME!! WHY THE #;!?# DID YOU BUMP ME?!"

At that instant, Tsuzuki launched at Hisoka. "What the hell did I do to you?! Why are you yelling at me like that?! I--Hisoka?" Right before him, Hisoka was looking confused.

"What are you talking about? All I said was I heard your dilemma and was willing to help. Now get off me." He said, shrugging Tsuzuki off.

"…I really need my ears checked." The brunette said to himself.
