"God dammit women! All I did was mention that you look young; take it as a compliment!" Soul complained standing back up holding his head.

Maka scoffed. "Yeah sure, that was a compliment." She said rolling her eyes.

"It was. Ugh what the hell? Are there rocks hidden in that book, or are you just a human mutant?" Soul asked staring right at Maka.

Maka smiled. "I'm just hella strong."

Liz and Patty giggled watching the two. Liz walk over and dragged Maka away. "Come on, time to doll you up." Liz smile wickedly.

Maka looked over at Tsubaki and Kid. "Help me!" She pleaded. Kid put his hands up in defeated way saying 'sorry I can't stop her.' Tsubaki smiled sadly and followed the three to the Kitchen.

Liz slowly took Maka's hair out of her pigtails. Tsubaki ran her hands through Maka's hair fixing it, while Liz started on her Maka. Patty just stood by holding a mirror saying, "Maka your going to look soooo pretty when sis and Baki are done with you.

Once the girls were finished Maka looked stunning. She had red lips stick that went with her dress and eyes. She had eyes shadow dusting her eyes lids consisting of the colors purple, brown, and white. Her cheeks had blush lightly brushed upon them. Tsubaki and Patty sqeuled. "You look great, around 21."

Liz smiled at her work. "That a good thing, Maka. Because your going to need to look older if you want to actually get anything at the bar, even if it's just food." Liz said exasperated remember her street days when all the guys didn't want to get charge for being child molesters. But then Kid found her and her sister. The street punk and the rich kid fell in love and soon enough they owned a Cafe with their best friends.

Maka grimace. "A bar really? How is that different from what we usually do?"

Liz smirk. "Yeah but this time you going legally! Not to mention we're stopping at a casino." Liz said as she walked with all of them back to the guys.

Soul looked over at Liz confused. "I thought we we're also going to that club?" Liz hit him in the back of the head. Tsubaki glared at him while Patty made a signal to shut the hell up or she will make she he can never talk again. Soul gulped, 'Why must these girls be so fucking deadly?' He questioned it wasn't helping his was turned on by the deadliest one of the four, Maka.

Maka walked over ans sat at one of the stools by the counter by Kidd. "So, Soul... Why are you here exactly?"

"Ah that's a surprise." Soul said winking at her. Maka scowled at him.

"Fine then care to tell me how you know everyone here?"

"Huh? Oh.." Soul laughed. "I'm joining your friends pathetic excuse for a band." Soul said pointy at Blackstar empazaing that the band suck.

Patty glared at him while Blackstar said "Hey it's not pathetic; it one of the most rocking bands in Death city. No, no, in the World! Right, Patty?" Blackstar asked looking over at the band's lead singer/ guitarist.

"Yeah!" She cheered. If you're wondering about the reason Patty and Blackstar don't work at the café is their trying to start a band.. And they are well failing at it. Maka giggled at her friends.

Soul rolled his eyes. " Yeah 'cause a band named 'The stars and giraffes' isn't one of the lamest thing anyone ever heard."

"Come on, Come on. We're stopping at the bar first." Kidd said clapping his hands for everyone to quite down.

"Come one just one bottle and then we're going to the casino." Liz pleaded with Maka. Everyone dragged Maka to bars all the time, but never once did Maka dare even think about having alcohol it was bad enough she was at a bar when she was only seventeen. But now she was eighteen and it was legal. (I'm not sure what the drinking age in Neveda is so... let's just say it's around 20 or 18)

"I'm not going to have anything like alcohol you know me. Try my... 21st birthday." Maka whinned.

"You said that you would try it on your 18th birthday when you turned 17." Tsubaki tried to help.

Maka grab the bottle out of Patty's hand rolling her eyes she took a sip. "Yahoo goody-two-shoes finally let loose for once!" Blackstar cheered.

Maka started choking a little. Soul snickered. "What you don't like the taste?"

Maka scowled before chugging the rest of the bottle. She wrinkled her nose in distaste and once the taste of beer lessen in her mouth she turned to Soul and stuck out her tough.

"Uh... How lady-like Maka." Kid joked.

"W-why is it so loud in h-here?" Chrona stuttered as more drunk people yelled at the T.V. every time their team scored a touch-down.

Harvar, an old high school friend and also one of the workers at the only casino in Death City, waved the group over to an a row of slot machines. Harvar patted Maka on the back. "Happy birthday your finally an adult." He looked her over. "Uh.. sort-of." Maka sneered and lightly hit the back of his head.

"Hey how come he doesn't get Maka-choped?" Soul questioned the deadly move's namesake.

Maka smiled. "Because I know he isn't an asshole." Maka snuck a glance at Harvar. "er.. Maybe not as much as you at least. But if it makes you feel better you're not as bad as his room-mate."

"Oh just so you know Ox is still planing revenge for you getting a higher grade than him." Maka laugh when Harvar told him that.

"I'm surround by nerds. Whatever I'm going to go play black-jacks." Soul said walking away. Maka looked around everyone had already left either on a machine or some sort of card came.

"Hey S-Soul? Eh whatever you name is, wait up!" Maka said chasing after him.

He stop and turned around only to have Maka knock into his chest. He bent down and lower his head slightly so his face as level with her's. "Yes what is it you want, short stack."

Maka scowled and blushed at his new nickname for her. "Don't. Call. Me. That!" She muttered dangerously. Soul just smirk and put his hands up in surrender. "I-I don't know how anything works here." She mumbled looking away in embrassment.

Soul once again smirk. He nodded his head motioning for her to follow.

Maka couldn't deny that she was having fun with the tan albino. Who was that even possible, she question. She was seriously curious how she could have fun with a guy like... him. Sure he was snarky and crude, but he made her laugh. Also despise the fact that he said she had small breast, he made her feel pretty and beautiful. And the best and the worst part was every time a guy started to flirt with her, Soul would put his arm around her and tell the guy to walk. It was almost as if Soul knew about her past with men, maybe he did who knows what everyone told him.

"Alright so what's this club surprise thing Soul mention early?" Maka asked slidding into the limo.

Everyone looked to the side avoiding her eyes. Everyone but Soul who looked at her as if she was an idiot. "Well we're taking you to the only club in Death City. 'The stars and giraffes' got a gig there whole reason why I'm here, sweetheart." Soul rolled out the word 'sweetheart'.

Maka fumed not for any selfish reason, but because of the person who owned that club. The only clud in death city, 'Chupa Cabra', was owned by Spirit... Spirit Albarn to be exact. Maka felt like she was going to puck in the cramped limonene. She looked at all in her friends in pain. She shook her head furiously incapable of words.

"Hey what's up you look a little green, Maka?" Soul asked with concern.

Kidd finally decide to speak up and tell her the reason they agreed to letting the gig happen. "Look you know how my father and Albarn are good friends? Well Father took him off to Canada, along with Sid and Stein... Why Canada of all places I have no idea. Anyway Nigus and Marie are running the club for the time being."

Soul looked at everyone in the car. "Why is their something wrong with Mr. Albarn?"

"Uh well you see..." Liz started

"He's Maka's cheating lieing pig of a father." Tsubaki whispered.
