Personally, people have thought of Patty as a short, energetic little girl. No one has ever really taken the chance to get to know her better. Except for one very special person, me. I'm Chrona, Medusa's son. As many people already know, I'm easily scared, I'm very shy, and I really hate being out of Mr. Corner. Whenever I'm in Mr. Corner, Ragnarok never bugs me, the blue man, Sid, never bugs me. Only Maka would come to visit me and she'd be the one to take me out of my shell, to make me act normal. That all changed the day Maka got sick and had Patty come visit me. Patty was obnoxious that day, but as soon as she came to visit me in place of Maka, she immediatly calmed down, and started to talk to me like I was a normal person, someone who was just like everyone else, just, not as loud.
"Hey, Chrona, how come you're still in that dingy old corner? Let's go ask Lord Death if you can go out with me for a bit! We'll have fun, you'll see." Patty suggested. I nodded, and slowly got out of my corner, my right hand gripping my left arm. As hard as I try, I've never been able to come out of that habit. I slowly followed behind her, my eyes never staying in one place for too long. "Hey, hey, walk faster, Chrona!" Patty giggled, grabbing my hand and dragging me towards the Death Room. I tripped over my gown, and she helped me up. "You have to be careful or you're gonna get hurt. Look, you have a brush burn on your hand!" She gently pulled my hand to her lips and kissed the spot. "All better!"
"Uh, um.. Th-Thank you, Patty." I mumbled, a blush slowly spreading across my face as I stared at the ground.
"No problem, Chrona. That's what friends are for, right? Anyway, we'd better hurry or else someone will get there before us and we'll have to wait. Oh yeah, while we're out, lets go get you a different outfit than this old dingy one. Plus, its getting a bit tight, don'tcha think?" Patty continued to ramble on as she dragged me along to the Death Room. "Miss secretary lady, we need to see Lord Death. Its an urgent emergency!" Patty glowered at the lady, and she lets us through without a second thought.
"Hello, hello, hello! How are you doing, Patty, Chrona?" Lord Death smiled down at us. Or so it felt like. You could never really tell because of the mask that hid his face from us. "Whaddya need? Need a new blanket or a new pillow? How about a new light in your room, Chrona?"
"Actually, Lord Death, I dragged Chrona here to ask you if I could take him out for a bit. I mean, he's been stuck in that room for so long, I thought that it'd be good to get some sun for a bit. Whaddya think?" Patty explained, then looked up at the towering man with a look of hope. "I'd really love to take him out, I mean, it'd be something nice for him, like, he gets to hang out with friends, and I could bring the other's, and we could all go together if you'd like. I just really wanna take him out."
Lord Death watched us for a bit, then he grinned, again, or so we thought. "Patty, seeing as you really wanna do this, I give you permission to take him out," Patty cheered, "also, you don't need to take anyone else, I can see that you really wanna be with him by yourself, so, I'll allow it." Patty grinned and thanked him. "Well, you may go now." I bowed then stood up, dragging Patty out insted of the ladder. She waved goodbye to him, and caught up with me.
"Where are you t-taking me, Patty?" I asked her. She put a finger to her lips, telling me that it was a secret. "P-Please tell me, I-I don't like surprises. I don't know how to deal with this!" I cried out, then scurried off to some random corner to sulk. I really do hate surprises.
"Chrona, come on. It'll be fun, don't worry. We're just going to a few stores so you can try out some outfits that will look good on you. Then we're gonna get your hair cut and dyed! Then we'll get ice cream, alright?" Patty clammered over to me, kneeling infront of me. "So don't worry, you dummy." She grabbed my hand and dragged me to a store called 'Hot Topic'. (A/N Sorry, couldn't think of a store. Don't worry, Chrona's also going to Aeropostale! And maybe another store... Dunno yet.)
"I don't know how to deal with clothes like these!" I cried out as I came out of the changing room wearing a gray Blink 21 shirt, black skinny jeans, and a pair of black and white converse. "C-Can I change out of this now?" I stuttered out. Patty shook her head and ran up to another stand, then came back holding a skull hat. She plopped it on my head then started to clap. After she was done with her outburst, she ran up to the cashier and paid for the outfit, saying that I was gonna wear it out.
"Time to go to Aeropostale!" She shouted as she dragged me from the store, my old clothes forgotten. "Hurry, hurry, I have an outfit in mind that would look absolutely charming on you!" She grinned at me, and I stared back. This was not gonna be good, I could already feel it. As she got me into the store, she grabbed random things off of random shelves, and pushed me into the changing room with them.
"P-Patty, I don't think I can wear this!" I told her through the door, quickly shoving a gray undershirt under the door. She huffed but picked up the shirt, telling me to try on the rest of what she'd grabbed. After putting on the outfit, I clammered out of the changing room wearing a dark blue Aero shirt, gray skinny jeans with a lighter blue than the dark blue shirt suspender hanging off to the left, and a pair of checkered white and dark blue converse. "Patty, please don't buy this outfit, its embarrassing!"
"To bad! I think its gorgeous! Ask the people behind me, and they'll tell you the same thing." As Patty said this, Maka pushed her way towards the front of the crowd, and looked from me to Patty and back again.
"Chrona, is.. Is that you? You look... So... Freaking... Hot." She said as her face turned cherry red. "Patty, I think I'm about to... Faint.." And as Maka said this, she passed out. Soul and Kidd also pushed their ways to the the front of the crowd, Kidd's eyes focused on what I was wearing, Soul's eyes focused on the passed out Maka who was on the floor.
"Well, I'm gonna pay for the outfit, Chrona, so go change back to your other one that we just bought a bit ago, 'kay?" Patty bounced away before I could say anything, and I quickly ran back into the changing room. When I came out again, I was wearing the outfit I'd gotten from Hot Topic, and almost all the girls in the room passed out with a nosebleed. The only ones left standing were all the guys and Patty. "Let's go, let's go! Hair cut and dying time!" Patty dragged me away and I waved sheepishly to Soul and Kidd. They just stared after us.
"Patty, I think we should go now, this is really embarrassing!" I mumbled as we made our way to Death Cuts. Patty just ignored me, dragging me into the store without a glance my way. She paid for the cut and quickly dragged me to one of the chair's where the lady was waiting.
"I think, like, just the bangs should be cut." The girl said between chomps on her gum. Patty agreed and so the lady removed my hat and cut my hair. "So, like, what color do you want his hair? We got, like, black, brown, blond, and, like, a light red color. Personally, I think he'd look good going with brown hair." Again, Patty agreed, and the lady had my hair dyed brown.
"You look so hot, Chrona! I just wanna kiss you!" Patty said, a look of pure happiness glinting in her eyes. I was just barely able to notice a small blush creep onto her face.
