NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
...
Summary
Is AU and contains some OOC.
The truth is a single thread, in a web of lies, sticking to it is almost impossible, its absolute, but as part of the mafia a single lie is more important than 100 truths, they are the down fall and uprising of all. But now at least, I don't have to lie anymore, now I can revel to you what should have been said long ago… I give you NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH.

Prologue
Memories are only a burden, when I think back to the happy times, the FAMILY still strong, where I could train and play with my best friends Hontaru Imai and Natsume Hyuuga… when my dad was still around.
I'm Mikan Yukihara of THE Yukihara's…
Haven't you ever heard of us, I know it's been a while since… well I guess you could say that the family went into hiding but the name should still hold some respect, right? After all we are, or should I say were the most infamous Mafia family this side of Europe, to be forgotten so easily takes the piss.
BAKA, BAKA.
"What was that for?"
"Swearing, keep it pg. please."
That was my best friend she said that she'll help write my story down to make sure I don't muck up. But anyway reciting our Families past charades would take too long, so I guess that I will have to refresh your memories, using my own.
Let's see we Yukihara's were so feared because of the way we were raised, for the sub-parts of our family – those which were invited to join our ranks or married a branch member – a month after their child's birth, the parents have to start the testing. Endurance, strength, intelligence and speed, any ranked member of the Yukihara clan must be extremely strong in each, if you don't reach a certain level your worthless, and depending on the current head, will be either executed or forced to do the mundane jobs of a lacky, you will never get to leave headquarters as you're an embarrassment to the family, in fact your lucky to even receive a family crest.
Of cause not all of that stuff can be tested straight away, until we are able to walk, it mainly consists of adding small amounts of poison to our food, running volts of electric through our muscles to stimulate them, and leaving us in varying temperatures to see how we cope with dehydration and frostbite, you get the picture, well let's just say that most don't get too see there second month…
Only the strongest survive, its rougher on us main branch children – the ones who OWN the Yukihara name) as we are going in inherit the whole family, our tests start the day after our birth and they're far worse - 1 in 20 get to live past the first week – within the family its known as the purging of the weak!
BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!
"Oww, HONNTTARUUU! What did I do NOW?"
"I just read that you wrote my family as a sub-part… AND you're taking you long, we agreed no family history. Now get on with the real story."
"Mou, you're so mean, your family IS a sub-part or we would be related AND if I didn't do that then they weren't going to understand why there's so few of us!
BAKA! BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!
"Not everyone is as dense as you Mikan!"
"Okay, just don't hit me again."
Now let's see…
