Happy Birthday, Tasuki!!!
"Sarah…." Tasuki spoke up in a worried tone as a pack of girls advanced towards him while Sarah was distracted.
"Not now, Tasuki," Divon admonished him. "Not while Tetris no Miko’s busy bragging to a bunch of people about her talents! You know how big her ego is, don’t you?" she asked with a little laugh.
"…And then that picture was put up on all of the brochures," Sarah chatted on, unaware of what the girls were doing to her precious man. "All the hotshots in ballet say I’m wonderful," she continued with a toss of her long hair.
Tasuki was now surrounded by at least 30 girls, all giggling, all drooling, all scaring the hell out of Tasuki.
"SARAAAAAAAHHH!!" he cried out desperately. "HEEEEEELLLLPP!!"
But by the time Sarah noticed her man was in trouble, it was too late. The mob of girls, lead by Kourin and Divon, had Tasuki pinned to one of the couches and were spanking him.
"How old are you now, Tasuki?" Rence said with an insane giggle as she gazed at Tasuki’s wonderful chest. Jill held her up so she wouldn’t faint, while some other girls spanked Tasuki some more.
Hating to be left out of the action, Ritz separated herself from the crowd and dragged out a large plastic mat. "I think it’s time for some strip twister!!" she announced gaily, jumping up and down.
The girls all agreed this was a good idea, and dragged the poor bandit (fumbling all the while to keep his pants on) over to the board.
"Now, the rules are simple," Ritz began with a little giggle. "Now, someone spins this little thing, and whatever color it lands on—"
"I don’t wanna play your stupid, fucking game!!" Tasuki growled, baring his fangs to the girls (who promptly sighed in awe.)
"Aw, come on; it’s fun!" one of the girls insisted. The others echoed their feelings, and all crowded the handsome bandit (each one desperate to touch his wonderful body.) Sarah had to just stand by helplessly and listen to her lover’s agonized cries for help…and pray; pray desperately for someone, or something to come and save her beloved…her prayers were answered by a knock at the door.
"Coming!" Sarah called hopefully, hoping it was the police so she could turn in every member of the DTFC for disturbing the peace. She was disappointed, however, when she found a blonde at the front door with a friendly smile.
"Excuse me," the blonde began. "Is this where Tetris no Miko lives?" Upon hearing her voice, the DTFC members stood cold in their spots, staring at the woman at the door with guilty faces.
Sarah finally found her voice. "Um…yeah. Who’re you?"
The woman grinned. "Tasuki no Miko…" Sarah immediately prostrated herself before her magnificence. Tasuki no Miko frowned down at the silly girl. "What are you doing?"
Sarah found her voice and apologized. "Oh, it is you! It is really you!! Tasuki no Miko, my hero!!!" Tasuki no Miko looked down in disgust as Sarah kissed her feet.
"Oh, honestly!" she said in an annoyed tone, stepping over Sarah and making her way to the middle of the crowd of girls.
Priya and the other girls came into the room with the frosting, talking excitedly. "We kinda accidentally threw the cake outside, but we have this frosting left!" Priya announced proudly…until she saw Tasuki no Miko’s cold stare in her direction. She sheepishly hid the frosting behind her back and looked down at her feet.
Tasuki no Miko waited a few seconds for dramatic effect, and then spoke. "I’m very disappointed in all of you." The DTFC members hung their heads in shame. "Tasuki’s finally settled down with a girl he loves on his birthday, and you revert to these childish antics!"
Kristi spoke up. "But Tasuki no Miko-sama, we were just—"
"Silence!!" Tasuki no Miko’s eyes darted from left to right, observing all the females in the room. "Now, I thought I had it clear that no one would do anything of this sort to Tasuki ever again…" she softened her tone and looked down at the girl by her feet. "Especially now that he has such a wonderful, beautiful girl by his side," she said fondly, helping Sarah to her feet. "Now, I think it’s time you all went home, and left these two alone," she finished firmly.
One by one, the members of the DTFC dragged their feet out of Sarah’s door, mumbling their apologies as they went. After a few minutes, the room was clear, except for Tasuki, Sarah, and Tasuki no Miko.
Sarah looked at the once crowded room with bewildered eyes, hardly sure of what to say. "Thanks…" she finally said quietly.
Tasuki no Miko shook her head and smiled. "Don’t mention it. I just had to do something to repay you for that wonderful shrine you and Éd made to Girl #2."
Sarah blushed. "You really went there?"
"Why, of course I did! You know how fond I am of Girl #2!!"
Tasuki finishes this last sentence with a smile on his face. "How nice!" he says in approval, smiling at Sarah.
Sarah blushes and smiles back. "You really like it?"
Tasuki stands up and hugs her gently. "Of course I do! That’s the best birthday fic anyone’s ever written me before…" he pauses, trying to find the right words. "That’s why I love you so much; you’re not like the other girls who are only out to embarrass me, or see me naked…you really care about me…"
Sarah looks down shyly. "Thanks…"
Tasuki kisses her softly and steps away. "Well, I think I’ll take a quick shower and then we’ll watch ‘Seinfeld’, okay?" he suggests.

"Tasuki kisses her softly..."
"Sure," Sarah agrees. As soon as Tasuki’s out of the room, Sarah rushes back to the computer, trying to contain her giggles as she adds on to the story…
"Well, I’d better be going," Tasuki no Miko said as she turned for the door. "I’ve got some more damned manga to translate."
"Thanks for everything!" Sarah and Tasuki called after her. Tasuki no Miko waved cheerily and closed the door behind her.
Sarah and Tasuki walked back to the couch in silence; alone again.
Tasuki grinned at her. "So, where were we?" He asked with fire in his eyes.
Sarah laughed seductively and leaned into him, closer…and closer….and
KNOCK, KNOCK.
"Shit…" they both complained in unison. Sarah rolled off Tasuki and stomped up to the door.
"Hello?" she said, opening the door. She found no person there, but a very large birthday cake with twenty candles, and a card with it that said "Happy Birthday, Tasuki. Love, Tasuki no Miko."
Tasuki walked up to the door to see what was so wonderful, and gazed at the cake in awe. "Wow…she bought this for me?…" he asked in amazement.
"Yeah, I guess it’s good having her for a miko after all, huh?" Sarah asked him with a smile.
"Yeah," he agreed, squeezing her shoulder lightly.
"Well, wanna eat some of it?" Sarah suggested. "Since Priya messed up my cake?"
"Okay!" Tasuki agreed excitedly. Sarah rushed off into the kitchen to get a knife and came back quickly with the biggest knife in the house.
"Wanna do the honors, birthday-boy?" she asked playfully, holding the knife out to him. Tasuki accepted the knife graciously, and started to cut the cake. He frowned, however, when he cut an inch through.
"Hey…this cake isn’t real…it’s made of cardboard, or somethin’…" He continued to saw through the "cake" with difficulty, until he finally cut through it. The cardboard fell away, and standing in front of Tasuki was a sight that will affect him the rest of his life…

"Happy Birthday, Gen-chan!" Kouji said seductively, pursing his lips sexily. The horrified look on Tasuki's face made for a wonderful picture (taken by a couple DTFC members who had never left the house), while the remaining DTFC members bursted back into Sarah's house through the windows, doors, and just about any other way they could get in. Tasuki no Miko ran up to Kouji, and gave him a high-five. Tasuki’s birthday party was, once again, a big success.
