Count D sighed; it seemed as though the day would never end. Leon hadn't shown up today, or yesterday for that matter. He was working on a big case. Or so he said.
D looked towards the back of his pet shop. He had a new arrival a couple weeks ago; it was a rare species of bird. A young one, he looked exactly as a human, but he had the call and beauty of a bird. Q-chan flew down from her perch on the back of his sofa to sit on his shoulder.
"Let's go see him, okay?" D asked the small animal.
The small creature nodded his head and chirped.
D walked slowly into the bird room and walked into the back. The birds had all stopped their chirping to look at D. One flew down in front of him, "Hello." She chirped, "What should we make of your appearance, Count?"
"I'm here to see the new one." He said with a smile. "He's supposed to be a beauty." D walked passed the female with a gracious bow. "I'll see you later."
She nodded before flying back up to her tree and talked with the others who were there. Q-chan flew off of his shoulder and into the back room.
"Is he in here, Q-chan?" D asked with a small smile appearing on his face. When he spotted the small animal, he gasped at the beauty of the bird behind it. The bird had short sandy-blonde hair that framed his face perfectly. He had big eyes, and a small build. "Hello, my name is D." he greeted.
The bird looked up at him, "H-hello." He said softly. The bird looked back to Q-chan. "Who is this?" He said pointing.
"That is Q-chan." D said with a smile, "Come with me. I want to bring you out front." He held out his hand for the bird to take. "I won't hurt you."
The bird nodded and placed his small hand in D's elegant one. "That's good. Now, let's be on our way. I wouldn't want the others to become jealous of our new beauty. All of them are so vain..."
The young bird nodded his head again. "Here, sit on my arm." D said, holding out his arm in a way that he would to a smaller bird. "Don't worry, I'm stronger than I look." He added with a chuckle.
"Ah... okay." He said, looking at the ground before sitting on D's arm. He shifted to a more comfortable position on D.
"Are you always in this form?" D asked softly to the small bird.
"Yes...." He said looking at D's face.
"Well, if someone wants to buy you. I'll tell them that your name is Omi?" D suggested.
"Omi...." The bird said softly, "I like that name." A smile appeared on his face. "Thank you, D-kun." He mumbled happily as he hugged D's hand.
They entered the front of the shop just as three customers' came through the door. "Hello, welcome to this shop." D said, he still had Omi on his arm. But the bird didn't seem embarrassed by that. "Give me a minute to speak with Omi-chan." he said softly to the three men.
He placed Omi on a stand, "There you go, a perfect display." He looked around, "Q-chan? Do you know where I put those treats?"
The small bat-thing chirped and flew over to the table behind the three men. "Ah! Good Q-chan." he said happily. "Bring those over here, please. Thank you." He said happily as he gave a treat to Omi to munch on.
"Thank you, D-kun." Omi said with a heart-warming smile.
"You're quite welcome." D said with a smile, "Now! What can I do for you gentlemen? At this pet shop, we sell love, dreams and hope! I am the stores caretaker. The owner, my grandfather and the last count, is abroad. But, can I interest you with anything? We have a variety of pets, from cats and dogs to the rarest of creatures."
The brunette smiled slightly. "Ah... we're looking for a pet?"
"Ah, well you've come to the right place!" D said happily. He turned towards Omi before shaking his head, "What kinds of animal are you interested in?"
The blonde lanky one said, "Well, my fair lady..."
"Lady?!" A voice exclaimed, "He certainly is NO lady."
"Officer Orcot! So good of you to have stopped by! You've come just in time for tea!" D said.
"Aren't I always in time for tea?" The blonde homicide detective asked. "Well, what are you pushing on the boys, Count?"
"Drugs, other imported goods. The shady stuff." D said with a grin, "You know what I mean, Leon."
The officer in question looked as if he were going to pass out. He faced the three boys, "Is he joking?" He asked to the redhead.
"Of course I am!" D countered, "You know I only sell pets here!"
Leon rolled his eyes, "Whatever, you're still a suspect..." he glanced at the boys as D began to talk.
"Do you want to join us for tea?"
The brunette nodded, "Ah.... sure?" He looked at the redhead. "What do you think, Ran?"
Ran nodded. "But, what about the pet?"
D smiled, "We'll look into that after teatime!" He walked over to Omi, who had been silent, the whole time. "Leon, be a dear and fetch the tea!" He smiled at Omi. "Do you want to join us, Omi-chan? It'll be fun. I promise that the others are nice."
Omi smiled and nodded. D held out his arm and Omi slid off of the perch onto it. "Looks like we have another guest for teatime, Leon!"
Leon came back from the back of the store with an angry looking Tet-chan chewing on his pant leg. "Here, Count." He said as he set the tea and cakes down.
"Tet-chan missed you, Leon!" D exclaimed with an amused face. "Isn't that wonderful? I think you two are becoming great friends! What do you think Omi-chan?"
Omi smiled, "It's nice..."
D lowered Omi to the ground and told him to sit next to the customers. "Go on, they won't bite."
Omi nodded his sandy blonde head with a smile as he walked over to the three men and bowed. "Hello. My name is...." He looked back to D, who smiled. "Omi."
The brunette smiled to him, "My name is Ken Hidaka, that's Yohji Kudoh, and that's Ran Fujimiya." He said pointing to the others as he said their names.
Leon laughed, "Is that your new pet, D?" He grinned, "He's cuter than this fucking devil!" He gestured by lifting his leg and shaking it, trying to Tet-chan off of it. "Could you get him off, D?"
"Tet-chan. Let Leon go." He said, pulling the brown fuzz ball off of him. "There, now go play with Pon-chan. She's probably wondering were you are anyways."
It jumped off of D's lap and ran towards the back rooms. "Ah, I've been blessed with such good pets." He said with a happy smile.
Leon fixed himself a cup of tea, then handed another glass to D. "Thank you, Detective."
He passed out cups to the other three, "Hey, D. Can this thing have tea?" D nodded and Leon handed Omi a glass. "There you go. What about a cake?"
"Sure, this birdie can have anything he wants!" D said with a laugh, he petted his shoulder and Omi jumped off of the back of the couch and landed gracefully on D's shoulder with his glass still full and cake in his hand. "Isn't he just perfect, Leon?"
"Why are you treating a child like that?" Yohji asked, "That's not an animal!"
"But he is. He's a rare species of bird only found in the... the... " he petted Omi on his head, "I don't know where you came from..."
Omi smiled again, "My previous owner's house."
"Didn't my father own you?" D asked the small bird.
"Yes, he did. A very kind man he was." Omi said with a smile, he quoted what D's father had said to D. "Give this precious bird to a kind person to bring joy into their live. He can bree--"
"That's enough, Omi-chan." D said with a laugh. He asked the three what they wanted. "So, have you decided on anything yet?"
"Can we buy Omi-chan?" Ken suggested.
"Would you like to go with them, Omi-chan?" D asked the smiling bird.
"Please, can I? They have nice faces!" he added with a cheerful laugh. He jumped down from D and walked over to Leon, "Thank you, Detective Leon Orcot."
"Gah! D, now you have the bird calling me 'Detective'?!" he shouted around the happy bird. He faced Omi, "Just call me Leon, okay?"
"Can you turn into a bird, Omi-chan?" D asked the please bird.
He nodded slightly. "Are you unsure?" he nodded again, "Okay, well then you'll act like a human."
Omi smiled, "That's easy. My father was human!" he said with a happy laugh, he faced the three who would take him home. He sat down on the edge of the table and stared at them. "I like them, D-kun."
"Ah ha!" Leon shouted, "I finally have something to put you behind bars, D!" He reached towards his handcuffs as a smile crept up on D's face.
"But, Leon. You're off today and you have no proof." D said with a smile.
"How'd you know I'm off today?"
"Because you don't have your handcuffs nor your badge." D said with a bigger smile. He faced the three who were going to buy Omi. "Now, I'll want fifty chocolate eclairs for him and sign this paper please."
"Eclairs?" Ran asked skeptically.
"He has a sweet-tooth," Leon answered sitting back down sadly.
"Paper?"
"For my release, and to say that this petshop will not be blamed for any accidents that I might cause." Omi repeated happily, "I won't be any trouble, I swear!"
Ken smiled, "I know you won't, Omi."
Q-chan flew down from where it was hiding and landed on Omi's head, chirping. "Hello, Q-chan!" he greeted happily, "How are you doing? Guess what? I found a home! They'll love me!"
Q-chan chirped again before rubbing it's face in Omi's hair. "I'll come back to visit. Don't worry!" he pulled the bat off of his head and kissed it on it's forehead. "I'll miss you too."
Omi snapped his fingers and inscense began to burn, "D-kun, I'm going to say bye to all of my friends okay? Can I bring my owners?"
D smiled at the smell, "Sure, go on." he said with a wave and he continued to talk to Leon.
Omi grabbed Ken's hand and pulled, "C'mon let's go!" he pulled them into the back.
"Aren't only employees allowed in here?" Yohji asked.
"It doesn't matter." Omi said with a smile. "This is the cat room!" he opened the door and about ten females were laying around with smiles on their faces. Kittens were around them and a the males were perched in various places. "Hey, I'm going away. I found a home." some of the girls whined and a mother came over and clutched him to her chest and licked his face.
"Come back here and visit us, okay sweetie?" She purred. "We'll miss you."
A male walked up behind her and she let Omi go, "Hello." he greeted. The male kissed his jaw and purred.
"We'll miss you, Omi-chan." he said before walking back and laying down. "You're always welcome in here..."
He nodded and walked towards the dog room. "Hey! It's the bird!" they shouted and ran towards them, "and he brought friends! Look their boys!"
"I found a home with these men, guys. I'll visit you alot!" Omi said with a smile as they began to whine, "Shhhhh, you don't want D-kun to separate you!"
They became quiet and he said his goodbyes and left towards the big cat room. "These ones in here like to play..."
He opened the door and shouted hello. Several of the cats came out and smiled. "Hello, Omi-chan." a big male greeted. He picked up the bird and set him on his shoulder. "What an honor it is that you've come back to us." he was purring and he licked the boy's hand.
"I just came back to say bye... I found a home. Aren't they nice looking?" Omi asked with a smile.
"Delicious."
He jumped down and hugged the male before leaving the room, "Let's go say good bye to Philippe and then we can go back to your home?" Omi said with smile and Ken nodded.
He walked into a door that should have belonged to a closet but when he opened it, inside was a lake. "Philippe, Chris!" he shouted. A little black haired boy came up to the surface of the water. Chris was sitting on the edge with Pon-chan and Tet-chan. "Hey! I wanted to introduce you to the men who are taking me home!" he hugged Tet-chan and then Pon-chan. Chris hugged him and then he walked over to the edge of the water and hugged Philippe. "I'll miss you guys! I'll visit though..."
The three watched as 'Tet-chan' hugged him around the waist. "I really wanted to eat you..." he squeezed a bit, "I'll just have to eat that blonde- thing."
Omi laughed, "I'll miss you too."
As the four walked back to the front of the shop D jumped up. "Omi-chan! I could have sworn that Tet-chan had eated you by now!"
"I was saying goodbye to everyone."
"Oh yes... I forgot about that." D said with a smile. "Did they approve of your leaving?" he asked the small bird.
"Sure, I said that I'd visit them alot. They seemed fine with it." He said with a smile. "Can I go with them now?"
D nodded his head. "Go on, they'd probably want to introduce you to their friends and families." he said with a smile.
Omi turned to the three, "Let's go home."
