Thank you all for reviewing!
Death the Kid, now known as Lord Death was in the Death room. However he was not alone. The day hadn't been unusual for anyone at Shibusen. Everything had pretty much played it's coarse. Like normally Kid was in the Death room with Sarah. They were watching a meister/weapon pair doing a very dangerous mission that involved a witch, and Sarah was growing very bored, so she decided to annoy Kid.
"Hey Kid, what are you doing?" Sarah asked in a sing song voice. Kid sighed.
"Please don't call me that," he said. Sarah shrugged.
"Why not? I'm your friend aren't I?" she asked.
"My friends don't even call me that," he said. Sarah nodded.
"Some of them do, but not to your face. Does your wife call you that?" she asked. Kid sighed again.
"Shouldn't you be doing your job?" he asked. Sarah shrugged.
"You hired me so that you didn't have to spend that much time over here. You don't even have to be here right now because of me, and yet you spend most of your time in the Death Room," she said.
"You should still be doing your job," Kid said. Sarah sighed looking back to the mirror.
"You know what Kid? I think you need to get laid. When was the last time that you had sex with your wife?" she asked. Kid blushed.
"I-I'm not telling you that!" he said. Sarah put a hand on her chin looking professional.
"That long, huh?" she said. Kid blushed even more.
"Why don't you take an early break?" Kid said. Sarah nodded and started walking away.
"Good idea," she called over her shoulder. Kid sighed once she left. He felt a soul just outside of the Death room, and he let it in. Across the long hallway of guillotines Ashton was slowly walking in. She felt a bit nervous. She had never met Lord Death. She really wanted the maid job to end her boredom. Was she too young for it? No, she didn't think so. She didn't even want to be paid. She just wanted an easy time killer, and what better way than to clean someone else's house? Her father had gotten a maid for them, and when she tried to be of help, she was just constantly told that she was getting in the way, but cleaning your own house is boring anyway. Ashton had finally made it to the platform. She saw someone who looked too young to be Lord Death. Was he the new Lord Death? She always thought that he wore a mask. Well, she never really heard about him before, she just kind of assumed it.
"Hello, are you lost?" Kid asked looking down at her. Ashton swallowed hard.
"H-Hello, my name is Ashton Fields, and I'm here to apply for the maid's position," she said. Kid looked at the young girl weirdly.
"What are you talking about?" Kid asked. Ashton looked down.
"I heard that you were looking for a new maid for your house, and I wanted to take the position," she said. Kid looked at her. She was wearing a dark blue sleeveless top with spaghetti straps that go around her upper chest and neck. She was also wearing a pair of jean shorts and black flip flops. She looked up with big blackish blue eyes and tugging on one of her shoulder length grayish black high up pig tails. Her eyes peaked out of spiky and messy bangs. Kid sighed.
"No," he said. Ashton frowned.
"Why not!" she whined.
"First of all. You're too young, and secondly your bangs are asymmetrical," he said. Ashton pouted.
"I'm not too young, and you don't even have to pay me! And I can fix my bangs," she said. Kid shook his head. He felt another soul outside of the death room, and he let it in.
"Sorry, but no. You should go home, your parents are probably worried about you," he said. Ashton shook her head.
"My mom's dead, and my dad is always working since he's a lawyer. He doesn't care what I do! And I'm so bored!" she complained.
Dokuro walked through the halls of Shibusen going towards the Death Room. It had been a long while since she last had come here, and she was very nervous. Come to think of it, it had been awhile since she last had a decent conversation with her husband. She sighed as she walked through the hallways. She remembered going to Shibusen when she was younger. She started out in the NOT class, then she was transferred to the EAT class. She had met Kid before she was an EAT student though. She really didn't talk to him that much during their school years. She did remember dancing with him at one of Shibusen's many dances. Dokuro was heavily lost in her thoughts. She wasn't paying attention to where she was going, so she hit the wall face first. She landed on the ground and her hand went straight to her head. "OW," she lowly muttered. She sat up and saw that she was outside of the Death Room, but what she was surprised to see was someone very familiar with their head on the door. She smiled and walked over.
"You know, that doesn't work," Dokuro said looking at Raven. Raven looked to where the voice had come from. She smiled when she saw Dokuro.
"Hey!" she said hugging her "I haven't seen you in a while." Dokuro smiled and hugged her back.
"Yea, I miss coming over here," she said. Raven giggled.
"I guess Lord Death's been keeping you all to himself," she said winking. Dokuro sadly smiled and looked down a bit. Raven looked at her a little bit worried. She didn't know the situation between Dokuro and Kid.
"Something like that," Dokuro said. Raven smiled at her.
"So, did you come to visit?" she asked. Dokuro shook her head.
"No, I'm actually here to bring something to Kid," she said "umm...is he busy or something?" Raven shook her head.
"Nope, actually some little girl went in to see him. I have no idea why though. That's why I'm listening in," she said. Dokuro giggled
"Well have fun," she said knocking on the door to the Death Room. "Bye," she said entering after being granted permission to enter.
"Tell me what's going on in there," Raven called as Dokuro closed the door. Dokuro sighed once the door was closed. She was happy to see Raven again. She walked down the long hallway of guillotines. She heard voices, so she suspected that Kid probably wasn't alone. As she got closer to the platform, she could make out people. She blushed a little when she saw her husband. As pathetic as it was, she hadn't really seen him long enough in a while to look, no stare at him. She was surprised that someone like her could marry someone who looked like...that. She felt butterflies in her stomach from looking at his amazing features. She zoned out for a bit, but zoned back in when she noticed a whiny female voice. She noticed that there was also a little girl there. Was that the little girl that Raven was talking about?
"Pleeeaaasseeee," Ashton begged. Kid sighed.
"No," he said. Dokuro approached the platform and walked up the stairs.
"Am I interrupting something?" she asked. Ashton and Kid turned to her, with the latter being a little surprised.
"Dokuro? What are you doing here?" he asked. Dokuro smiled a little.
"Mary asked me to bring these letters to you," she said handing him the letters. Ashton looked at Dokuro confused.
"I could have got them when I got home," Kid said. Dokuro looked down a bit.
"I-I know, but I wanted to come visit you," she said. Kid shrugged.
"Well, you can go home now," he said. Dokuro sadly nodded. She turned away to leave, but Ashton tugged on her arm.
"Hello Miss," she said smiling at her. Dokuro smiled back.
"Hi cutie," she said "who are you?"
"My name is Ashton fields," she said "I'm here to apply for the maid position at Lord Death's manor," she said.
"Aren't you a little young?" she asked then she looked up at Kid, "What about Mary?" she asked. Kid shrugged.
"Mary's fine, we just need another one," he said, "I don't expect you to do any work." Dokuro felt a little hurt by that, but she turned her attention to Ashton.
"No, I'm really bored. And my dad's always at work, and my mom died giving birth to me," she said. Dokuro smirked, although she still felt moved by the girls story.
"That sounds like someone I know," she said meaning Kid, but he didn't seem get the reference.
"I really want the job," Ashton said. Dokuro looked at Kid.
"Awww, why not, Kid?" she asked, Kid shook his head.
"She'll do a lot more destruction than cleaning," he said. Dokuro frowned a bit.
"Come on. Because we already have a butler, cook, and gardener ,and with your tendencies there's barely any work for Mary to do, so there's barely anything she'd have to do, meaning she won't mess anything up. Please," Dokuro said. Kid sighed.
"Fine, but just so you'll leave me alone," he said. Ashton jumped up happily.
"Yay!" she yelled. Dokuro smiled sadly.
"Alright," she said "Come on, Ashton. I'll show you where Gallow's Mansion is."
