Okay! This chapter ios a bit of a crack, parody, and kinky one. Okay yeah, its actualy pretty bullshit. And its short as well, but please don't kill me! :)

I hope you enjoy it, as the next chapter will KNOCK. YOUR. SOCKS. OFF. Sort of, well atleast i hope it will, hahaha.

Yes, a bit of a warning, Shizuko act's like a kinky power whore in this chapter, bullying Akito like that. Hahaha, i'm so mean to him :3

Enjoy!

"Okay, I've made a list of the things I think Shizuko would absolutely love us for if we got one of these for her birthday" Death the Kid took our the list he had spent all night thinking of, clearing his throat so he could read it out to Liz and Patty. "I want your opinion on these present ideas, okay?" His two partners nodded in agreement.

"A new scythe" Kid flicked his piece of paper, looking at the expressions on Liz and Patty's faces.

"If you want Akito to beat you to an asymmetrical pulp, yes Kid, go find her a new scythe as a partner" Liz sighed, motioning her hand so that he would move onto the next option.

"We're giving her Soul?" Patty brought up, looking happier than she should have. "Wouldn't Maka get all green-eyed like a scary monster with a dictionary?" She concluded with a slight pout and a frown.

"Hahahaha, no Patty, no. We're not giving Shizuko Soul for her sixteenth birthday, although silly Kid over there thinks it's a lovely idea..." Liz chuckled awkwardly, patting her sister on the back slightly.

"Moving on," Kid coughed, putting all attention on him. "Okay, this should work; A trench coat! Like Maka's of course! To enhance fighting ability and looking awesome whilst doing so!"

"I don't think Shizuko and Maka are friends" Patty raised her hand, giggling a bit. "So that's a big no no! Kid you dummy!"

"Kid, Patty's making more sense than you..." Liz sighed, shaking her head at the idea of giving Shizuko a coat exactly like Maka's.

"Okay, this I guarantee you would be perfect!" Kid said after a while of thinking. So far his 'perfect' ideas weren't working at all. "A gift voucher!"

"I give up." Liz sighed, starting to walk up the stairs towards her room.

"NO!" Kid cried out loud after realizing all his ideas ad failed and Shizuko wouldn't like any one of them. "IM USELESS! ABSOLUTELY USELESS! I CAN'T EVEN COME UP WITH A BIRTHDAY PRESENT FOR A FRIEND! IM TRASH! UNWORTHY OF BEING A SHINIGAMI! JUST THROW ME OUT WITH THE REST OF THE GARBAGE!"

Death the Kid fell to his knees, ramming his clenched fists into the ground repeatedly as the list dropped to the floor. Curious, Patty picked up the piece of paper and looked all of Kid's options.

"New death scythe, designer trench coat, gift voucher..." She read out to herself as she unfolded the rest of the paper to see a scribbled out option. "NEE-SAN!" She called out to her sister. "KID WROTE SOMETHING ELSE!"

Patty had caught the attention of Liz and she started to walk back down the stairs.

"What?" Kid looked up from the ground, realizing that Patty had noticed the mistake. "No!" He shouted out one last time before Liz came and grabbed the piece of paper from Patty's hands.

"Paaah..." Liz tried to read the awkward scribble. "Paah? Ne.. Doh.." She continued, making faces at the paper.

"Oh for Shinigami's sake, it says Pandora, Liz" Death the Kid sighed, standing up and brushing the dirt and other bacteria off the front of his perfectly ironed black pants. "To be more specific, a Pandora bracelet" Kid turned slightly pink as he fixed his clothes.

The eyes of his two partners, Liz and Patty, lit up immediately as they smirked to each other and looked at Kid sheepishly.

"Eh?" Kid stared back in confusion. "As if I would get her something asymmetrical like a Pandora bracelet"

"Kid, it's perfect!" Liz shouted, throwing the piece of paper in the air behind her, and then putting both her hands on each of Kid's shoulders. "You must get it for her!"

"But the present is far from perfect!" He shouted back, moving away from Liz.

"TRUST ME KID, IT'S PERFECT!" Liz grinned as Patty clapped in pure joy.

"But-"

"It's perfect!"

"Are you just going to sit there and boss me around?" Akito sighed, clenching a pink apron in his fist as his teeth gritted together in irritation. Shizuko simply nodded with a cocky smirk on her face as Akito sighed once more, opening out the apron. Looking at it Akito's jaw had nearly dropped to the ground; it was a baby pink, frilly apron with a picture of a cat on the front, how embarrassing for him. "You're stripping me of any manly pride I had left in myself, Shizuko-pyon"

"Pyon? What's gotten into you, Akito-nya?" Shizuko giggled, motioning her hand and staring at Akito intently, making him put the apron on. Finalizing her decision with a smirk, she took out the very signed card by Akito himself, that had allowed her to do anything she wanted him to do on that day; The Slave Card.

"Strip for me, my dear kitten" she came across a loud cackle-like laugh. "Keep everything but that apron on"

May this seem even a tad awkward for everyone, I shall explain. On this day of December the 9th, the birth date of Shizuko, and the day where she turns sweet sixteen, Akito had given her a choice for a birthday present. Her first choice was an all day shopping-a-thon, with Akito paying for everything and him holding the bags; of course, this was the easy way out. Second option for Shizuko was that Akito would break into Kid's house, and move every object in it (from paintings, to chairs, tables, and even kitchen utensils) two to five centimetres out of place, you know, just for laughs. The final option was a one use only trump card, a card that gave Shizuko power over everything; the Slave Card. Of course, she obviously wanted the slave card, but decided to let Akito draw one out of the three from a hat. Surprisingly, to her liking, the slave card was drawn. And now, we're back at the awkward scene.

"Go on, take your clothes off, little kitten" She smirked, resting her back, back onto the couch. "Entertain me as best as you can. If you fail to do so, I won't hesitate to punish you."

"Is it me.." Akito started off a question, clenching his fist slightly, "Or does this seem a bit kinky, even for you?"

"Oh pssht!" Shizuko chuckled to herself, "It's just for fun, Akito-nya!" She stood up, putting her hands behind her back innocently. Akito immediately knew something was up with her behaviour when he saw her beautiful violet eyes gleam a slight crimson colour. "Now, take off. Your clothes. Okawara Akito" Shizuko brought out a whip, hitting it into her hand as Akito's expression turned to one of fear.

"Where did you get that-"

"Whoa, Akito, what the fuck happened to you mate?" Black Star laughed at Akito's perked up face. As it was Shizuko's birthday, he had given her the pleasure of doing whatever she wanted to him, and how did she use this power? To draw all over his face in lipstick and black permanent marker. "Makes you look like some fucked up cat" Black Star continued to laugh as Akito's anger simply rose by the second.

"Shizuko.. Thought it'd be funny... To draw on my face... As a birthday present..." Akito took many pauses, trying to calm himself down and holding back his urge to punch Black Star in the face right there. Looking over at Tsubaki, Maka, Patty and Liz, the girls too were grasping their mouths, holding back their fits of laughter. Soul simply shook his head in shame, muttering 'how uncool' at Akito, whilst Death the Kid argued with himself about how much of an asymmetrical job Shizuko did on his face. Sighing, Akito had finally stopped caring.

"Okay, shut the fuck up everyone!" He shouted, slamming his fist on the coffee table. Everyone had gathered at his and Shizuko's apartment to start planning this awesome birthday party. "Lucky for you guys, I got Sorako to take Shizuko out shopping, so they won't be back for about another three hours. In this three hours, you should go home, get ready, and come back to help me set everything up, okay?" Akito had taken control, complete control.

"Yes yes yes, stop being so bossy" Black Star rolled his eyes. "BECAUSE I, THE GREAT BLACK STAR, IS THE ONLY MAN WHO SHALL SURPASS GOD, TO HAVE THIS ALMIGHTY POWER OF BOSSING PEOPLE AROUND" He ended up laughing with his hands on his hips.

"And I, Elizabeth Thompson, wants the almighty Black Star to shut the fuck up and get going" Liz smiled at Black Star, angering him completely.

"Okay, just get the fuck out and meet back here in an hour" Akito pushed everyone out before a fight erupted between Liz and Black Star.

Sighing, Akito headed to the bathroom to attempt once more to wash off the marks on his face.

An awkward silence had fallen between mother and daughter, as Sorako tried to bring up an issue of the past, trying to get her daughter to accept everything that has happened and will happen to her. Unfortunately, the lingering memories does nothing but bother the learning witch, whom still regrets everything to this day.

"I know I have to accept it one day, Haha-ue" Shizuko's gaze looked distant, gripping onto the shopping bags that rested in her hands. "The time just isn't now" She ended with a sigh, inhaling a deep breath of air.

"I'm sorry for trying to force all of this on you" Her mother looked over to Shizuko with a pitiful stare, reminiscing on all the broken pieces of her past, "You don't have to forgive me-"

"Shut up, mother." Shizuko cut through Sorako's words piercingly. "It's not your fault, and it never will be, yeah?" Shizuko smiled lightly at her mother.

"I doubt-" Shizuko stopped herself for a moment, trying to catch the words that were supposed to be coming out from her mouth, but hadn't managed to be expressed. "I doubt.. f-father.. Would have wanted you to be like this..." She managed to say, stuttering in slight anxiety on the way. "He'd want you to be happy. He'd want you to stop thinking like this. He'd want you to live with no regrets"

Sorako smiled knowingly, feeling at ease with her daughter's words. "Arigatou"

Shizuko nodded with a small smile pursed on her lips, "Don't worry, mother, one day I'll accept my family name with ease" She concluded, looking at her mother, who's pain was easing slowly.

"The day I learn to accept the monstrous creature I am..."

Turning the door knob, Shizuko took long strides into her darkened home, sighing as her legs ached from the hours worth of walking around, browsing through racks of clothes, and giggling endlessly with her mother. As much of a tom boy as Shizuko was, it wasn't bad to go shopping and show her girly side once in a while.

"Akito!" She called out, dropping the bags worth of clothes, accessories, and other numerous, feminine things. "Are you still hiding?" She giggled playfully, walking around cautiously, trying not to trip over the loads of furnature within her shared apartment.

Surprisingly enough, the lights turned on without her noticing completely, with a loud, and high pitched 'click'. That room that had been completely dark and empty were now filled with laughing, joyful people. Shizuko, who was, just a second ago, looking for a perked up Akito, was now surrounded by people throwing confetti paper and shouting out 'Otanjoubi Omedetou!' at her. What was this burning sensation in her chest? What was this feeling of comfort? Shizuko felt that thick armour of isolation encasing her slowly break.

"SHISHI-CHAN! SHIZU SHIZUUU~" Patty cried out in happiness, hugging Shizuko from the side. "HAPPY 16TH BIRTHDAY!" She ended as everyone cheered.

"Akito?" Shizuko called out his name, looking at the boy who still had whiskers on his face, drawn in a thick black marker.

"Hai hai?" He grinned. "Happy birthday, Shizuko" He concluded, not allowing her to speak as he approached her with a smile on his face. Before she knew it, Akito had taken her into a warm embrace. At her face was rested in the crook of Akito's neck, Shizuko could slowly feel acceptance in her heart.

'You know, he'd accept you for whatever you may be, Shizuko' A deep voice within her mind spoke.

'I know...' Shizuko replied, burying her face into Akito's large chest as she brought up her arms to hug him back.

"SHIZU SHIZU! KID-CHAN HAS A PRESENT FOR YOU!" Patty cried out, clapping her hands together.

"In fact, we all do" Soul pointed at the presents on their coffee table, and looked back to Shizuko with a soft smile. She smiled back, looking at all the faces of her newly made friends.

"Go, Kid" Shizuko heard Liz say, nudging kid on the side of his arm which ushered him towards Shizuko.

Blushing a slight tinge of pink against his soft pale cheeks, Kid reluctantly handed over the perfectly wrapped box and placed it in Shizuko's hands. The perfectly placed and tied white bow on top of the black, symmetrical box intrigued Shizuko to the fullest extent. Never had she seen something so beautifully placed out for her like this before.

Holding the box in one hand, she used the other to pull out one of the ends of the ribbon, making the bow collapse over it's own weight and fall to either sides of her hands. She then reached for the top of the box and lifted the fitted lid that closed it shut.

Everyone watched intently as she opened the box to reveal a gorgeous silver Pandora bracelet, with little charms to represent the things Shizuko loves in life.

"I hope you like it, as asymmetrical as it may be" Kid muttered as Shizuko took the bracelet out of it's box to inspect it's charms.

The first charm she laid her eyes on was a shining music note. This had to be something that Kid could have only asked Akito about; Shizuko's love for music wasn't known to anyone but him, of course. The second charm, directly next to the music note, was a paint brush to represent Shizuko's love for art and drawing; yet another thing only Akito knew about her. The third charm that caught her attention was one of a small, miniature scythe, representing the relationship between her and her beloved weapon and partner, Akito. The fourth, a beautiful yet deadly wing, one much like, or rather an exact replica of the wing symbol on Shizuko's usual tie she wears for school. That was also the wing that appeared on Akito's blade in his weapon form. Apart from the charms, the bracelet itself was a beautifully crafted piece of silver, perfectly placed to fit Kid's likings.

"Oh! And one more thing..." Kid snapped his fingers, then digging his hand deep into his pocket as if he was looking for something. Shizuko looked at him intently, already feeling overwhelmingly happy over the present he had gotten her. "I want you to put this onto the Pandora too" He finished, holding a small charm of a skull in his hands. This wasn't a regular skull, it was the skull death mask that represented who he was and who his father was.

Passing the bracelet over to Kid, everyone watched as Kid attached the last charm onto Shizuko's much loved Pandora birthday present. Kid, his hands shaking slightly, unclipped the bracelet, as he took Shizuko's hand to put it on. Closing with a 'click', Kid sighed in relief as the bracelet was a perfect fit around Shizuko's small wrist.

"Well, I hope it's to your liking, Shizuko" He smiled with respect, brushing off the front of his blazer. He looked up to see Shizuko grinning quite widely at him. "What?"

Before Kid could finish straightening out his jacket, Shizuko had brought him into a hug, catching the Shinigami off guard completely.

"Thank you thank you thank you!" Shizuko smiled as she held Kid tightly. "Thank you, everyone!" She pulled out of the hug, leaving Kid standing there looking half pleased and half confused at the same time.

"Enough with the mushy stuff, open the rest of our presents! I command you to!" Black Star shouted out as he pointed towards Shizuko, and then to the lonely, wrapped boxes on her coffee table. "I'm pretty sure my present will kick Kid's present right out of the circle!" He ended up laughing at Kid.

Shizuko smiled, reluctantly picking up the nicely wrapped present that had said 'FROM BLACK STAR' on it, in large writing. She guessed that Tsubaki had wrapped it for him. Pulling off the wrapping paper precisely, Shizuko was revealed to a framed piece of paper.

"Black... Star..." She read it out loud. "What the fuck is this?"

"MY AUTOGRAPH, OF COURSE!" He laughed back, feeling proud of himself.

Well, Shizuko wasn't surprised; it is Black Star after all...

I was asked a question the other day, asking how i came up with the personalities of my two OC'S. I'm glad to answer that their personalities are strictly based on a friend and I.

Akito, is based on my friend Allio, who's a perverted, hyperactive, overprotective, teenage boy, whereas Shizuko seems like a bit of a Tsundere, like me, but is secretly pretty girly and warm as well :D

Yeah, i told you this chapter was pretty crappy. Crappy and short. And kinky. And weird.

LOL! Isn't it just like Black Star to give someone his autograph for their birthday? Hahaha, i think it was :D I'll try upload faster next time, i promise!
