Hotaru: Thank you all for your reviews~ I didn't think anyone would like this story honestly. *points at self* No self confidence whatsoever. Ah, yes, and as for pictures go, to give you a visual, I'll be putting a link in the next chapter...it might be 2 links… Oh yes, and I utterly fail at fight and action scenes- *shot*
Keika: I just checked the stats and I was like HOLY ****! Yeah. It exploded. And don't worry Tarucchi, I'm only good at romance scenes, not fight and action scenes- *gets bombed* …E…Enjoy… *dies*
Chapter 2: Day 1
Shinra grinned as he set a box outside Shizuo's apartment and slipped a piece of paper under the door, "I think you'll find these useful today."
From the moment he woke up, he could sense something wrong.
After smashing yet another alarm clock into smithereens, Shizuo groaned as he sat up on his bed. As he ran a hand through his hair, he felt like there was something off about this whole situation. His hair felt…heavier…
However, he thought nothing of it and proceeded to make his way to the bathroom, yawning as he went. And this time, he just couldn't help but notice that the yawn was pitched higher than normal.
This cued the strongest man of Ikebukuro to make a run for the bathroom.
"What the hell…"
The reflection that greeted his eyes was one unexpected image.
The first thing he noticed was the chest. It stood out in both definitions of the word. He, well, that noun wouldn't work anymore; she gave it a hesitant poke, as if not believing her eyes.
The second thing he, now she, noticed was the hair. Oh the dreadful hair. Prior to this unexpected change, it had barely even reached her shoulders. However, the golden curls of hair now extended past her shoulders and ended at her waist.
And one final thing, the height. The damn height. Her once 185 cm (6'1") had now shrunk to a degradable 171 cm (5'7")
A flurry of emotions flew past her face before it settled on one. And that one was the intimidating glare she would usually shoot at Izaya. She stalked out of the bathroom and to the kitchen. Maybe a glass of milk would calm her down.
As she made her way into the kitchen, she glanced at the front door, where she located a piece of paper she did not recognize. Her curiosity pulled her to pick up the piece of paper. Shizuo's eyes skimmed over it quickly before she opened her door, where a brown box sat. She brought it in and set it on the ground, tearing it open.
"At least I still have my stren…gth…"
What she saw in the box sent her in a fit of rage as a few veins pop.
"SHHHHHHINNNNNNNRAAAAAAAAAA!"
A few sets of the female version of her usual bartender clothes were what were in the box.
Shizuo hatefully grabbed a uniform and changed out of her sleeping attire, replacing the T-shirt in a blouse and vest along with the bowtie. The sweats she slept in the night before were changed to a skirt and a pair of pantyhose. To say that Shizuo's face was now burning with embarrassment would be the understatement of the century.
"I'm going to kill Shinra the next time I see him…"
Then came the shoes.
Shizuo looked in horror down at the high heels. Did Shinra really expect her to walk in those…monstrosities?
"I have nothing else to wear…"
She gulped in a deep breath before holding a hand on the wall and putting the heels on. Once she felt that she had stabled, she took a few hesitant steps before almost tumbling down in a face plant to the floor.
"Che. Work…right…"
After a few almost falls here and there, she deemed herself able to walk at least a little decently before making her way out the door. Once she entered the busy streets, she could feel stares from all directions. She blushed and growled, "Stop looking at me, dammit."
Shizuo lit a cigarette to calm her nerves before making her way over to Tom, "Good morning, Tom-san…"
The man turned around to face whoever had called out his name. What he saw was something that he thought was absolutely impossible in the world, Shizuo as a girl. He responded unsurely, "Shizuo…?"
"Mm…yes…"she said, trying to formulate a response that was understandable, "Lots of things happened…and then this happened…and then there was a flu shot…"
A moment of silence followed after Shizuo trailed off before Tom broke it, "I see…I don't think I want the details…do I…?"
A shake of the head confirmed Tom's question before Shizuo suddenly tensed and a frown formed on her face. "I smell the flea…"
And as if cued, Izaya skipped around and corner and froze upon spotting Shizuo's…new attire. His face quickly melted into a smirk.
"Oh~? Shizu-chan? I never knew you were into crossdressing~."
A vein popped in Shizuo's temple before she ripped out a nearby stop sign and flung it at Izaya, "DIE." However, as always, the sign missed its mark and it sailed past Izaya.
"Shizu-chan is a girl now~?" he questioned in between giggles, "Shizu-chan actually fits you now Shizuo~…or should I say, ShizuKO."
Silence.
"IZAAAAAAAYAAAAAAA-KUUUUUUUNNNNNN!" came Shizuo's battle cry before she launched a vending machine. Izaya smirked at his success in riling Shizuo up and side-stepped, the vending machine crashing who knows where.
"Are you shorter than me now?" Izaya trolled, "Without your…high heels?"
"GAHHHHH. SHUT UPPPPPPPPPPPPP!" She yelled out while launching anything she could get her hands on, a tear unknowingly welling from the corner of an eye.
Izaya laughed as he dodged every single item Shizuo attempted to bring him down with. It was all to fun to toy with the monster! He jumped around; twirling here and there just to piss her off before he noticed the single tiny tear that had formed and his face fell to one of confusion, "Shizu-chan…?"
"DON'T CALL ME THAT. ESPECIALLY IN THIS FORM, DAMN IT ALL!" She spat out and threw one final object, which happened to be a car, before stalking off, leaving Izaya to stand alone on the street in confusion.
Izaya watched Shizuo's retreating form, utterly confused. He hated being confused. He hated not knowing. A deep frown etched in his face, trying to piece together the information.
"Shinra….."
Hotaru: Before we head off to the post-script, I'll point out right now why I'm naming chapters by Days…you'll see in the next chapter! Pwhaha, I'm so evil. But it'll make sense soon. And as I said, gender-bending…is for a limited time each day, that'll make sense in the next chapter too~.
Shizuo: …Damn you all.
Keika: Damn you too.
Izaya: Finally my turn to appear~ But I must say, you look rather good as a girl—
Shizuo: SHUT UP LOUSE! throws trashcan
Keika/Hotaru: No littering, Shizu-chan.
Shizuo: DON'T CALL ME THAT DAMN IT!
Hotaru: I'm sorry but it's really fitting now… smirk
Izaya: Hahaha~! Well then…
Izaya/Keika/Hotaru: LEAVE A REVIEW FELLOW HUMANS~!
Shizuo: You guys are all dead.
