Disclaimers: Blah

After what seemed like hours, Hisoka finally walked out of the bathroom carrying the brown bag in front of his chest.  Three shinigamis were on the bed, turned their head and eyed the figure walking out.

"Hisoka, you don't have to cover yourself.  I told them," said his partner.  Mouth slighting gaping open, Hisoka couldn't believe that her partner had just told them.  But her mind clicked and thought it would be best that they did know.  So future complications wouldn't happen.  Ever.  Still hesitant, she lowered the bag and heard two smalls gasps.

Yuma and Saya's eyes nearly popped.  The front of Hisoka really did have…bumps!!  A stunning sight this was.  The green-eyed shinigami could really pull it off to look like a girl.  Small light complexion, large green eyes, a curvaceous body covered by a gray turtleneck and light blue jeans.  The golden hair would just be a boy-cut hairstyle on a girl.  And what a beautiful girl the boy had transformed to!

"Waaaaiii!  Hisoka-chan you look more beautiful as a girl!!" Saya squealed.  Yuma clapped her hands.  Hisoka didn't know whether to take it as a compliment or an insult, but whatever way she thought, the shinigami felt her face get hotter each passing second.  The two girls awed at the crimson vision.

"So cuter when you blush," Tsuzuki confirmed.  More shades of red were added to the poor girl's face.

"Can we take Hisoka-chan shopping?" Yuma asked.  "We saw some of Sanha's dresses and they would look soooo cute on Hisoka!"  Saya took Hisoka's bag and dumped the contents onto the bed.  Eyeing the plain clothes Yuma pointed out that these clothes weren't really stylish and frilly.  Only shirts, pants, and underwear.

"Please??  Even the underwear isn't lacey!" Yuma begged.  Tsuzuki clamped his eyes shut and turned red.

"I don't want to know that!" he stated.  Hisoka nodded in agremment.

"I don't want to know that either!  And I don't want to wear…lacey things!"  She crossed her arms and leaned against the headboard of the bed.  "I think these clothes are fine and I don't need anymore than this."

Saya and Yuma looked at each other.

"Well too bad!  Because we're going to buy clothes for you anyways!"

Before Hisoka can protest that it was a waste of their money, they girls turned and exited giggling among themselves.

"Idiots," snorted the young teen.  The older man plopped down from where he sat on the bed.

"I think you should go with them, Hisoka," Tsuzuki said suddenly.  "Otherwise they'll buy you these really crazy dresses."  He turned over and propped his chin on his hands.  Hisoka just snorted and turned her face away.  "Besides, I think my wife should wear pretty dresses."  He smiled.

"BAKA!!"

"Itaaii!  So mean!"

The purple-eyed shinigami had been kicked off the bed by his partner.  Tsuzuki's hands rubbed his back and his bottom from the impact on the floor, his ears and tail twitching.  When Tsuzuki looked up from his position he found Hisoka red from the comment and pouting.  Immediately, he found his heart warmed by her features.

"Hisoka, you're cute when you're all red and angry."  He leaned back on his arms and smiled at the view.  His partner just mumbled something while turning more crimson and crawled beneath the covers of the bed.

After the two had left, Watari and Wakaba went back to EnMaCho to resume their daily work.  Unfortunately for our cute scientist, he had to spend the next few days to develop an antidote for Bon.  Which meant all day and night, he would be cooped up in his lab until the tonic was done.  Fortunately, he had 003 to keep him company.

"I hope this doesn't take a few weeks," Watari sighed.  He began to look at his scribbles of notes that were used for the gender-change.  After a few thoughts, the genki shinigami began to scribble ingredients and mixing them at the same time.  Too bad he didn't notice the gray smoke rising from the beaker.  At least the explosion didn't kill anyone.  But then again, you can't really kill an already dead person.

From his thrown position on the wall, Watari could see that his lab was gone.  Instead of seeing the usual burnt, charred, and black room, he saw cherry trees and their petals dancing in the air.

"Oh my," he murmured.  Blinking a few times, his mind was now functioning.  Watari was going to be in big trouble now.  The lab walls were blown off.

"WATARI-SAN!!!" a voiced that was undeniably the secretary's roared.  "WHERE ARE YOU?!"  The footsteps grew louder and Watari stood up, petting 003 on his shoulder.

"Do you have a good place to hide?!" he frantically asked his little bird.  She gave a sad hoot and puffed herself when her eyes were diverted to the man before her.  Tatsumi.

"Watari-san…" he glowered.  "Can you tell me what happened?!"  His shadows didn't look friendlier than his voice.

"I blew up the lab and made a giant hole?" he answered, trying to make it sound like it was an okay thing to say.  Maybe he shouldn't have mentioned the giant hole.  The fire in Tatsumi's eyes was sure scary.

"EXACTLY!!  DO YOU KNOW YOU ARE NOW IN A GIANT DEBT??!!" the blue-eyed man stepped forward, making the smaller man stepping back.  Two hands reached out before him.

"I am going to strangle you, Watari-san…"

"Eep!"  He took quick steps backward and felt his feathery friend stirred.  Without thinking, 003 was now in his outstretched hands as a shield between him and his reaper.  The brown haired shinigami tried to sidestep it, but to no avail.

"Don't kill me!  I'll pay for the damages someday!!" he swung his hands around, trying to block his friend with his owl.  003 didn't like it one little bit.  She hooted and squawked, widely flapping her wings.  She didn't want to die from Tatsumi's wrath.  But Watari held his grip on the bird.

"Wata-" his path was blocked by the bird in the other's hands.  "Watari-san!  Can [block] you put [block] the bird [block] down?"  Each of his step made Watari swing 003 this way and that, blocking Tatsumi from coming any closer.  Watari walked backwards, but suddenly there was no more floor but a wall.

"Uh oh…" Watari mumbled.  Tatsumi finally caught up to Watari, but the scientist still held the bird out.

"Don't kill me!  I'm sorry!!  I won't blow it up again!!" Watari cried out, shutting his eyes as he swung 003 around.  But he found his arms retracting and 003 nipping his hands.  He let go of his owl as Tatsumi slammed his hands on the wall, trapping Watari between them.  Tatsumi leaned his head down to meet the pair of scared orange eyes.

"You promise not to move now?"

Watari's blonde head bobbed up and down.

"Good."  He straightened his back up and folded his arms across his chest.  "Watari-san.  You are going to work until you pay for your damages.  And I don't care what you were creating, but it's going to stop.  Any more of these explosion and…" he trailed off.  "400 years of work without pay.  Understood?"

"Tatsumi-san!  But for the love of science!  I must-"

"NO MORE EXPERIMENTS!!!"

"Eep, hai."  Satisfied with the answer, Tatsumi turned around and walked back to his office.  Watari stared at his fellow's back as he walked away.  After the door closed, he pulled down an eyelid and stuck his tongue out.

"Big meanie."  Brushing himself, he stood up and ran his hand though his tangled golden locks.  Just thinking about what happened gave him a shiver.  Tatsumi was so close to his face, he could feel the warm breath.  The closest contact that ever happened.  Watari reddened at the thought.  Walking back to the lab, or what used to be the lab, 003 flew around and landed on the mass of hair, pecking, scolding.

"Gomen, 003-chan.  I was not thinking," he said, petting his friend.  She accepted the apology and nuzzled his face.  "Good thing I stored my experiments in this safe box."  He patted a metal cube with a combination lock.  After a few quick twists, he pulled out the cream that changed Hisoka to a girl.

"I think I should be using this again," he said knowingly to 003.  "If Tatsumi turns into a girl, then he'll definitely let me make more experiments, right?"  003 gave a sideway glance at her human, unsure of that outcome.  "Well, first thing first is buying a cake."

Don't you love Watari x Tatsumi?  I do I do!  XDDD  Please review! Thanks to everybody that reviewed.  I love you!
