Disclaimers:I do not own KHR.

And I'm not putting in so much Hibachrome in this chap cuz i feel the need to introduce everyone before putting in Hibachrome.

Chrome's fingers nervously fingered the catch of the bag. The school was big and intimidating.

"Fran." She said, lightly tapping his fingers on his shoulders. "Fran." She said slightly louder since he wasn't responding.

"I heard you the first time. What is it?" he said his face inscrutable. Chrome nervously looked at the tall gleaming building. Then back at him. He nodded and gestured for her to follow. She hesitated, then went in behind him.

"Its ok." He walked inside the building and immediately bumped into a guy that had blonde bangs covering his eyes, a huge grin that looked like it would split his face at any moment, and a sparkly tiara perched weirdly on his hair.

"Ushishishi, Good morning Froggy. Ushishi-"He was interrupted mid-ushi.

"Sorry Bel- senpai, but could you stop smiling?"

"…What?"

"Stop smiling." Fran repeated. "It's creeping Chrome out."

"…Chrome? Is that an animal's name or something?" he said, confused. Fran pointed behind himself. Belphegor craned his neck and saw a small girl cowering behind Fran. She was completely blocked by Fran.

"Ushishishi. New kid?" He asked Fran. Fran nodded. Belphegor waved and giggled which made him even more disturbing to Chrome.

"…Did you just…giggle?"asked Fran.

"No. I laughed."

"No. You giggled."

"Absolutely not, stupid Froggy. It was a laugh. Not a giggle."

"No senpai. A laugh is a manly. A giggle is not." Chrome sighed and left them to bicker. Since First period was free period, she decided to go to the roof. After all, who's goes to the school roof? The trouble was, when she opened the door, somebody was already on it.

*K*H*R*

Hibari Kyouya was lying on the school roof and staring at the clouds. The sound of the door opening caused him to jump up and whip out his tonfas, settling into a battle stance.

"Who's there?" He called out.

"I'm sorry! I didn't think there would be anybody here!" squeaked a small girl cowering in the doorway. Hibari's eyes narrowed.

"This is my territory ,herbivore. Get out or I'll bite you to death." He said, shifting out of his stance. But the girl was clearly as thick as a rock, because she didn't leave. Instead, she tilted her head and said-

"Herbivore? Do you even know what it means?" Hibari mentally growled. Did the girl really think he was that stupid!

"Yes. I. Do." He ground out, irritation breaking through his façade.

"Then why are you calling me an herbivore? I'm an omnivore. Humans are omnivores. Not herbivores." She said with an air of finality, waving her hand to emphasize her point. "And this is the school's property, not your territory." She added.

"Get out before I bite you to death, annoying herbivore." He snarled, sinking into a stance as a warning.

"Bite you to death? Is that your catchphrase or something?" she asked, confusion clouding her features. Hibari snarled, unable to keep in his anger.

"You've got a lot of nerve, Pineapple-head."

"I'm not a Pineapple-head!" she said indignantly. "Its always been like that a-and.. it st-stays like th-that…" she faltered as Hibari loomed over her threateningly. Then he suddenly smiled, although it was more like baring his teeth.

"You've got guts, small omnivore." He said, putting his tonfas away.

"I... I'm not small!" she blustered, her face heating up. He raised an eyebrow. "I… I'm… I just haven't hit my growth spurt yet!" He smirked. "Why aren't you in class?" she said, trying to change the subject.

"Prefects don't need to." He shrugged. He glanced at her inquiringly.

"Free period."

He nodded, understanding. Suddenly, the bell rang signaling the end of class. The girl gasped.

"Crap! I gotta go, see you Cloud Person!" she called over her shoulder before disappearing through the doorway. Hibari ground he teeth. Cloud Person? CloudPerson? Cloud Person!He growled and lay down, staring once more at the clouds. It was only when he yawned, closed his eyes, and started to drift off till he realized that he didn't ask the girl what her name was.

*K*H*R*

"Class! I would like you guys to give a warm welcome to our new transfer student, Chrome Dokuro!" Said Dino, smiling widely. The class didn't do anything, but just sat there taking in her eye patch and purple hair. Chrome looked up nervously at Dino when the class didn't do anything. He grinned. "Why don't you introduce yourself?" She swallowed nervously and nodded.

"H-hi, I'm Chrome Dokuro, 15, My favorite color is Indigo, I like eating chocolate and malt sugar and I –" She broke off when she heard people snickering. She gulped. She hated being the center of attention. She glanced at Dino and he gestured for her to sit down. She walked down the aisle and sat next to a boy whose hair look like a demented porcupine. He smiled softly at her.

"Hi, I'm Tsuna. Nice to meet you." He whispered, holding out his hand and smiled. Chrome stared at his hand until he dropped it. Tsuna shrugged, and turned around to stare out the window.

"Nice meeting you too." She said quietly. Tsuna turned, smiling. Chrome bent her head down, and flushing, she focused on her geometry.

When class ended, Tsuna offered to show her around. She didn't complain. Fran was off with the weird blondie.

"Next is world history with Byakuran. He really scary and always makes the class play "World Domination"." Said Tsuna, shivering and leading her into the room.

"TENTH!" Tsuna sweat dropped.

"Hi Gokudera."

"Tenth! Did you do the homework that Byakuran gave to us?"

"Hieee! I forgot! He's gonna kill me!" Tsuna moaned, and started rolling on the floor clutching his head.

"Don't worry Tenth! You can copy mine and-"

"Why do you call him 'Tenth'?" interrupted Chrome. Gokudera stiffened, and turned to look at her.

"And who are you?" he said rudely. Chrome took a few steps back. She bowed quickly and said "I'm sorry." When he continued to glare she started to sweat and quickly stepped behind Tsuna who quickly introduced them.

"Ah! Gokudera-kun! This is Chrome, she's new here and I offered to show her around." Gokudera beamed.

"As expected of the Tenth! Always thinking of others!" He said, tears coming to his eyes. Chrome was stunned. One minute he was glaring at her and the next he was grinning stupidly.

"Ah, Chrome, there you are." Chrome turned to see Fran walking towards her. "I finally got rid of senpai." Chrome nodded.

"Why does he call him 'Tenth'?" she asked, pointing.

"Ah. Its because Octo-head over there worships Tsuna."

"Why?"

"Its because Tsuna's a legend. He knocked out ten thugs in a minute. That idiot over there was a witness. Ever since then, he follows Tsuna around like a lost puppy." Fran said, side-stepping Gokudera as he charged toward Fran yelling "Who are you calling an idiot?"

Chrome ignored this and softly said "Wow." Who would've thought it? The bell rang and the class quickly got into their seats. Byakuran sidled in with a bag of marshmallows and sat down. She stared. Byakuran had white hair that was sticking up all over the place and a tattoo under his left eye.

"Homework on the desk please. Now." He said, smiling sadistically. No one got up, since Byakuran was famous around the school for his weird but torturous punishments. "Dear me, no volunteers?"

"Ahaha! I'll do it!" Called out a tall boy with black hair and a wide grin. He got up and started collecting papers. Chrome turned to look at Fran inquiringly.

"That's Yamamoto Takeshi. He's a baseball freak and never stops laughing." Fran whispered. Byakuran looked up and smiled at Fran.

"Can you be quiet, or do you want me to shut you up?"

The class went quiet. Fran sat there emotionlessly. Byakuran's gaze wandered to Chrome. "A new student? Why didn't anybody tell me?" He said.

"Ahaha? I guess it because you didn't ask?" Said Yamamoto, grinning at the teacher, while setting the stack of sheets on his desk. Gokudera slapped his hand over his eyes and Tsuna sank into his chair till only the tip of his brown hair was visible. Chrome quietly stood up and said "Chrome Dokuro. Nice meeting you." And sat back down.

Byakuran nodded, and smiled. "Good. Now lets all play World Domination!" He said clapping his hands, his dark aura disappearing almost immediately. "Why don't you start first, Tsunayoshi-kun?" He said grinning and stuffing yet another marshmallow into his mouth. Tsuna jumped and stood up.

"Uh…"

Chrome sighed. It was going to be a long period.

*K*H*R*

By lunchtime, Chrome had met a lot of new people and students and sat down at a very crowded table. There was Yamamoto, Tsuna, and Gokudera. Fran was eating with the "Prince". At the table there were a few new faces which Chrome met during class.

There was Kyoko, a girl with light brown hair and Tsuna's crush.

Haru, a girl who could notstop squealing even if it would save her life.

Ryohei, Kyoko's older brother and was two years older.

Basil, a boy who absolutely adored Shakespeare and even spoke in Old English.

And Fuuta, a young boy who was Basil's best friend and called Tsuna "Tsuna-nii".

The cafeteria was loud and everybody was talking to each other. Chrome stared at her plate, then slowly picked up her fork and spoon and started eating, while everybody else was screaming, talking, and eating at the same time.

"Stupid woman! Don't cling onto the Tenth like that!"

"Ahahaha Gokudera, don't be so harsh."

"Haru is not stupid! Gokudera is just mean and rude, don't you think Tsuna-san?"

"Er… I dunno…''

"Octopus-head! It is rude to the extreme to talk like that to a woman!"

"Shut up Lawn head!"

"Basil, do you think that Tsuna-nii would read The Last Elfwith me?"

"Fuuta-dono, I do not know. Dost thou wisheth me to ask Sawada-dono?"

The chaos continued for a long time, and Chrome sat there listening. Suddenly, Kyoko turned toward her and smiled. "So, how do you like the school Chrome-chan?"

Chrome didn't know what to do. "Uh.."

"Do you think that academics are hard?"

"They're ok.." She said quietly.

"And the teachers?"

"They're ok too…" Chrome said, growing more nervous. She started fidgeting.

"Are you on any teams?"

"Uhh no…" Chrome felt like it was an interrogation.

"Me neither! Are you gonna try out for something though?" asked Kyoko, clapping her hands together and looking as if Christmas had come early. Chrome didn't get it and she felt so hot and stuffy and caged that she had to get out of there.

"I'm full. I guess I'll see you later." She said quickly and stood up and emptied her tray. She quickly ran down the stairs to the field, where it was wide and empty. She wasn't so sure if she could go up onto the roof after Cloud person seemed to be extremely possessive of it.

*K*H*R*

Mukuro sat underneath the tree with M.M ,Chikusa, and Ken. He gazed listlessly at the wide field in front of the school. Ken and M.M seemed to be arguing. He didn't care. He was bored. He wanted to skip school along with his Kokuyo Gang, but the school would put him in detention, which was even more boring and uneventful. He leant back and started to doze when a loud shriek jolted him awake.

"Ken! You stupid animal you slobbered all over my dress!" Shrieked M.M, holding her skirt up.

"I don't care you ugly woman! And I didn't slobber! Slobbering is for animals stupid!" Yelled Ken, glaring at M.M.

"Ken, you did slobber on her dress. And you are like an animal." Interjected Chikusa, playing with his yoyo.

"Stay outta this Kakipii!" Ken barked. Mukuro sighed, and quickly intervened.

"Kufufufu, M.M. why are you worried about this? Just wash it off and everything will be ok." Mukuro said, laughing quietly at their antics.

"Oh, but Mukuro-san," began M.M , her eyes wide. "Ken's slobber is exactly like a dog's. all thick and gluey." She pouted. "And this was one of my favorite dresses." Mukuro smiled.

"Don't worry M.M, I'll-"

"Hey! Look! Some girl over there is gonna get beat up!" Said Ken excitedly. "Look Mukuro!" Mukuro whipped around and saw a small girl with purple hair in the middle of the field surround by seniors.

"Kufufufu…" Mukuro smiled and slid his staff out. Now there was something that made his day a whole lot more fun.

*K*H*R*

Chrome didn't know who they were, or what they wanted, but she knew they were older, bigger, and stronger. First, she was sitting quietly in the field, reading Pride and Prejudice when those big guys sauntered up and said "Why, aren't you cute?"

She gripped her bag tightly. "I need to go to class now." She said softly, and tried to walk away.

"I don't think so. Why don't you stay with us?" A guy with a weird haircut and glasses cooed. "I'm Glo Xinia." He said, smiling creepily. Chrome shook her head.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think I want to hang out with a guy who looks like he's forty when he's still in high school." A vein popped out on his head. The other guys laughed.

"Please let me go or I'll have to make you." She stated, looking directly at Glo Xinia. He smirked.

"Well, I'd love to see you-" He was cut off as Chrome swung the butt of her Desert Eagle BB Gun(Fran gave to her five years ago for protection, since she was small and delicate) into his face. Glo Xinia tumbled backwards, clutching his face.

"You'll pay for that, bitch." He snarled, spitting out blood. The others looked on, bewildered, wondering when she slipped the gun out. Chrome was unfazed as she swung round and shot to of Glo's thugs directly at their groins. They doubled over, wheezing, and clutching their crotches. Somebody lunged at her and she quickly shot him three times in the chest, before running away to the school buildings.

The fifth one ran after her when Glo howled, "Get that bitch! I wanna make her pay!" Chrome sped up, but the man was quickly gaining. He caught up with her and grabbed her arm.

"Got you at last." She struggled. "Let go!" He smirked, then punched her in the stomach. She fell clutching her stomach, gasping for breath. He smiled then viciously kicked her.

"You think you can do that to Glo and my friends? Think again bitch." He grasped her hair and started dragging her towards Glo and the others. Suddenly, a staff bonked him on the head, effectively knocking him out.

"Tally ho!" A man with purple hair yelled. He grinned at Chrome then offered his hand to help her. "Kufufufu...are you alright?" he asked. Chrome tried to reply, wantedto say, "You think I'm ok after getting punched in stomach and dragged by the hair?" but her strength left her and she passed out.

*K*H*R*

Mukuro was surprised. When he was running to beat up those guys the small girl did something that looked impossible for someone who was that small and looked as if she would have been blown away by the lightest breeze.

She fought back.

The purple haired teen heard them talking.

"I'm sorry, but I don't think I want to hang out with a guy who looks like he's forty even though he's still in high school." Mukuro chuckled. The girl had guts. He strained to listen.

"Please let me go or I'll have to make you."

"Well, I'd love to see you-"The petite girl swung a gun at his cheek and sent the guy tumbling backwards. He spat something and the girl turned and shot two of them at their crotches. Mukuro was amazed. It was a bulls-eye. The girl turned and ran.

Smart,he thought, running away when you know that you won't be able to take all of them on at once. Cripple them, then retreat.One guy ran after the eye patched girl and was quickly gaining. He grabbed her arm and viciously began beating her. It was then Mukuro decided to help.

"Tally Ho!" He yelled, striking the man on the head with his staff. The man was out cold. He smiled at the girl and offered his hand. "Are you ok?"

She tried to say something, but her eyes rolled back and she fainted. He sighed and put her on his back. Making sure she wasn't going to fall off, he set off towards the school. Then he turned and prodded the guy who he had knocked out with his foot, just to make sure he was alive. The senior groaned.

Mukuro nodded, satisfied, then started towards the big building.

"Mukuro! Wait!"

"Mukuro! Where're ya goin'? Lets go Kakipii!"

"Mukuro-san."

*K*H*R*

Chrome groaned and opened her eyes. She felt like she was run over by a truck.

"You were quite amazing in the fight back there."

Chrome whipped around so fast she cricked her neck. Rubbing he neck and wincing, she recognized the guy who had yelled "Tally ho!" and saved her.

"Thank you." She said, a little louder than a whisper.

"No, seriously, you did something I didn't expect you to do." He smiled. She suddenly noticed that his eyes were different colors.

"No. I meant for helping me." He tilted his head.

"Interesting."

"What's interesting?" she asked nervously.

"That instead of declaring 'Thank you! You saved my life!' and crying," At this, he gestured dramatically, causing Chrome to giggle a little. "You said 'Thank you for helping me.' " He continued.

"Is there a difference?" she asked, curious.

"A great big difference."

"How?" she said, leaning forward.

"It shows that you are independent, and that you're strong." He said, nodding importantly. Then he wrinkled his face. "I sound like an old wise shaman or something." Chrome laughed aloud. He smiled.

"You should do that more…er.. what's your name?" he asked. "I don't think I've seen you before. Oh, and I'm Mukuro Rokudo. Junior." He added.

"Ch-Chrome Dokuro. I'm in Ninth grade." His brow wrinkled in confusion. "Why didn't I recognize you? You stand out enough. No offense." he said quickly, seeing her blush.

"I just transferred here today." She said. He smiled sympathetically. "Rough day isn't it?" She nodded.

"Oh well." He said leaning back in the chair, crossing his arms and closing his eyes. "You'll get used to it soon enough." Chrome waited for him to say something. When he stayed silent, she asked, "Can I ask you a question Mukuro-san?"

He nodded, his eyes still closed. "Why are your eyes a different color?" He opened his eyes, and smirked. "I was wondering when you would ask." She blushed. "I-I-I- I'm sorry! I didn't mean to be r-rude or anything! I was j-just curious and-"

"Heterochromia Iridium." He said, cutting smoothly through her babbling. Chrome was mystified.

"Huh?"

"Heterochromia Iridum." He repeated.

"Is that a disease or something?" He chuckled.

"Kufufufu..no, my cute Chrome," At this, Chrome flushed tomato red. He didn't notice. "It's a genetic thing. Don't worry, its harmless." He said when she opened her mouth to speak, looking concerned.

"Well! Its been nice meeting you Chrome, but I think its time for you to go home now." He stood up, stretched, and yawned. "Its already 2:45." He yawned.

"What?" Exclaimed Chrome, sitting upright on the bed. "How long was I out?" Still stretching, Mukuro raised up 2 fingers. Chrome's mouth dropped open. "Two hours?" she whispered, her eyes wide with shock. The teen stopped stretching and leaned down and patted her on the head.

"My cute Chrome, you were hit quite hard by that senior." He said gently. Chrome looked up at him, panic rising within her. "I missed all my classes! How-"

"Wahhhhh! You're finally up, Chrome-chan?" Shrieked someone. "Awww you're cuter awake than you were asleep!" The man in the doorway giggled and danced around the room, fetching an icepack, aspirin, and a cup of water.

"Chrome-chan, you're new here today right? Oh of course you are what am I thinking? I would've seen you before. Well, good thing that this young man, " He pointed at Mukuro, pausing from his babbling, "Was here and carried you here! Then he stayed with you the whole time! Oh, young love!" He finally stopped to take a breath and turned toward the two with huge eyes.

Mukuro was standing next to Chrome's bed and Chrome was sitting in it, both staring at the nurse. Well, just Chrome. Mukuro seemed to be perfectly at ease with the nurse.

"Lussaria, she's new, she's not used to your moe stuff." He said glancing at Chrome. Instead of calming Lussaria, he squealed excitedly. "Aww! You're looking out for Chrome-chan! Most people said to me that you didn't have a heart Mukuro-kun, but why didn't you tell me you had a girlfriend!" Lussaria pouted.

"And a cute one too!" He added. Mukuro sighed while Chrome turned red.

"I-um, we're not-" She stammered.

""Lussaria, its time for me to send my cute Chrome home," Said Mukuro smoothly, and bent down and planted a kiss in her hair. "She needs rest after today." Lussaria exploded into squeals and giggles. Chrome turned so red that resembled a tomato, and tried to explain that they weren't together, but no sound came out of her mouth.

Lussaria quickly quieted down and adjusted his sunglasses. "Well, I'd better let you two young lovebirds go then!" He giggled once more then waved them off. "Bye Chrome-Chan!"

Mukuro took Chrome's hand and led the flushed girl out of the room. He paused in the doorway and looked back.

"You wouldn't mind keeping it quiet would you? Me and Chrome don't want anybody to know just yet."

The nurse nodded quickly and squealed "Toodle-doo!" and flapped his hands, gesturing for them to leave. The moment they were outside, the heard a loud "WAHHHH! KAWAIIIIIII!" Chrome was brought back to her senses.

"Why did you say we were together?" she asked, her face still red. "We're not and-"

"It was to get away from Lussaria. Otherwise, we would have been stuck in there for an hour." He smirked. "Although it was worth seeing you blush and look so cute." He said, bopping her gently on the nose, which caused her to blush again, even though she had just stopped blushing.

"B-B-But you sh-"

"Chrome! There you are! We were getting worried!" she was interrupted by Tsuna. "What happened to –HIEEEEEEEEEEE!" Tsuna shrieked. "M-M-Mukuro!" He looked like he was going to faint. Gokudera, who was jogging behind Tsuna, leapt forward and declared, "I'll protect you Tenth!" Yamamoto laughed.

"Ahahaha! Don't get so worked up you two. Hi Mukuro!" He waved, and Mukuro smiled back.

"Mukuro-san! Kakipii! I found him!" yelled Ken. He was pushed out of the way by M.M. "Mukuro-sannn! Where did you go after lunch? And who's she?" She added, looking at Chrome disdainfully. Mukuro turned to Chrome and said "Kufufufu. I have to go now. Take care my cute Chrome." He said, before leaning down to hug her.

Tsuna spluttered.

Gokudera's eyes widened.

Yamamoto grinned and put his arms behind his head.

M.M's mouth dropped open in fury.

Ken started jumping around barking "What the hell?"

Chikusa did nothing at all.

He let go of Chrome and patted her head. "I'll see you tomorrow." Chrome nodded. Then he went with the Kokuyo gang and the left the school building.

"Chrome?" Tsuna weakly asked. "Are you two together?" Chrome quickly explained what happened during lunch. By the time she finished, Tsuna'a eyes were huge, Gokudera nodded respectively, although a bit grudgingly, and Yamamoto grinned and gave her a thumbs up.

"Wow! You're stronger that we realized! Ahahaha!" Gokudera shot him a glare. "We know that already baseball idiot!" Tsuna tried to calm the two down when-

"Chrome! There you are!" Fran was walking down the hallway with the blonde.

"Ushishishi. The Prince is walking home with you." Bel informed her. "Froggy lost a bet so I get to sleep over! Ushishishi." Bel grinned and tugged on Fran's arm. When Fran stood there emotionlessly Bel decided to change tatics and stabbed his arm instead. Tsuna and the other gasped. Fran look at his arm and whined "Senpai…..It hurts…." His face remaining the same.

"Ushishi. Get on with it then." Fran sighed and waved good bye to Tsuna and Yamamoto. At Gokudera he stuck out his tongue. "Come on Chrome. Let's go home." Chrome nodded, shouldered her bag, and followed them out.

*K*H*R*

"Hibari! Hibari!"

Hibari looked up to see a yellow fluffy bird fly down and perch on his shoulders. He smiled softly at the chirping bird. His head snapped up when he heard a familiar voice.

"Kufufufu… hello Hibari-kun." Hibari mentally snarled.

"I heard that you beat the seniors?" he said. Mukuro shrugged and smiled. "Who knows?" a tic appeared on the skylark's cheek. "Discipline should not be defiled."

"Oya, oya Hibari-kun," said Mukuro, waving his hand carelessly. "You don't know whyI did it do you? I might not have been defiling discipline at all."

"But, knowing you, you would have beaten up those seniors just for fun. I find it hard to believe that you actually had a reason to beat them up. So," Hibari took out his tonfas. "Prepare to be bitten to death."

"Now, now," Mukuro said, skipping backwards a few steps. "You shouldn't be so violent Hibari-kun. Why should you make statements like that when you can't even lay a finger on me?"

Hibari sank into a stance. "Say that again and I willbash your head in." Mukuro smiled, pitiyingly. Hibari wanted to wipe that smirk right off his face but he held onto his temper.

"Where are your lackeys? It's surprising that you're alone." Mukuro shook his head, still smiling.

"Hibari, not all of us need to rely on people." Hibari's anger vanished and he proudly stepped out of his stance.

"Carnivores don't need to rely on herbivores. Crowding is a nuisance." He turned to walk away, triumphant that he finally got the last laugh. His hopes were quickly dashed, however.

"Oh my. You call yourself a carnivore when you can't even beat me in serious mode? Kufufufu, I wonder what I am…" Mukuro wondered aloud, rubbing his chin in a very satisfied way. Hibari swung round and pressed a tonfa to his throat.

"Say another word, and I will beat you up."

Mukuro laughed.

CLANG!

Hibari was forced backwards as Mukuro swung his staff to meet Hibari's tonfa. Hibari growled lowly then lunged at the purple haired teen. Mukuro slipped past and twisted Hibari's right arm behind him.

"Kufufufu…so impatient." Mukuro smiled and twisted the arm even more. Hibari was screaming in pain inside but he kept silent and fuelled that pain into anger. He glared and Mukuro and wrenched his arm free- possibly twisting a muscle- and brought his left arm with the tonfa crashing into Mukuro's face.

So Hibari allowed himself, just for a moment, to relish the idea of finally bashing the herbivore's face, like he promised.

"Kufufufu. You think you can defeat me with something like that?" Hibari snapped back to his senses, realizing that his didn't even scratch Mukuro. The purple haired teen had dodged the blow. Hibari glared and snarled.

"Oh my. What a ferocious look. Hi-ba-ri- kun." The two teens stood there standing still for a moment. Then, bristling angrily, Hibari lunged again. The tonfas and staff clashed against each other, sparks flying all over the place.

"You WILL be bitten to death Pineapple. Even-" He swung his tonfa up to block another strike, "if it's the last thing I do." Mukuro smiled. "I'd like to see you try Kyoya. But next time. I see my Kokuyo gang coming. Ta-ta!" And with a grin, Mukuro disappeared. Hibari growled, and slammed atonfa into the nearest wall.

"Dearie me! Now listen young man, clear off before I call the police!" Hibari glared at the little old woman before stalking off, Hibird flying after him.

*K*H*R*

Chrome sighed as Fran and Bel would. Not. Stop. Bickering.

"Stupid fallen prince, why can't you go home?" Fran complained monotonously. "Chrome is gonna be frightened to death when she wakes up in the middle of the night and hears your weird laugh."

"I am not a fallen prince," Growled Bel. "And the Prince's laugh is not weird." He continued, lifting his chin up defiantly.

"But Bel-senpaii," Fran whined. "Everyone who looks at you think that you must have dropped when you were a baby. Or that you have a bad case of ADD." Fran added as an afterthought.

In response to this, Bel stabbed Fran with his weird knives. Chrome gave a little "Eep!" and stepped backwards quickly. Fran calmly took out the knives and started bending them. Bel snatched the knives away.

"Don't bend the Prince's knives." He said sulkily. Fran sighed and walked on. "Bel-senpai, you have thousands of them. Just throw away all of them till you have only, like, ten left. Then I won't bend them."

Bel pouted. "What about all the other people I need to stab then?"

"There are other people?" Chrome asked.

"Ushishishi. Of course. There's Levi, the stupid secretary, Squalo, the art teacher, Lussaria the nurse…" Bel ticked them on his fingers. When Bel mentioned Lussaria, Chrome turned bright red.

"…oh, and of course, there's the idiot who hangs around with Tuna." Bel concluded, after several minutes of listing people in the school. Chrome was quiet, trying to make her blush fade.

"Oh, Chrome, where were you today after lunch? I didn't see you at all." Said Fran, oblivious to the fact that the girl's blush started up again. He turned toward her. "Did something…What happened to your face?"

"N-Nothing." Chrome jammed her hands into her pockets and stared at the ground. Fran shrugged, then turned toward Bel to discuss the people who weren't on the stabbing list. Chrome felt a piece of paper in her pocket and pulled it out.

Hello my cute Chrome. When I saw you fight with those seniors today, I must say that you were quite amazing. Your aim was astounding. If you didn't notice, all your bullets were spot on, and the man you shot in the chest, you shot it directly at his heart. I recommend that you try out for the Special club thingy. They only accept special students and they do all sorts of funky stuff. I'm sure you'll shine there.

Mukuro

P.s My email is Mukuro69atvongolashellfishdotkhr.

P.P.s Here's my phone number. Give me a call when you have time. 069-666-6996

Chrome stared at amazement at the slip of paper in her hand. When he had written it, she had no idea. But she knew when he had slipped the paper in; when he leaned down to hug her, he must have given it to her then. Suddenly, a pale hand reached over and took the paper from her.

Fran silently read the paper while Chrome stood there nervously, not knowing what to do while Bel-senpai read over Fran's shoulder.

"Mukuro huh?" Chrome nodded. Fran and Bel looked at each other and nodded. Bel suddenly appeared behind her and hit her on the head, knocking her out for the second time in a day. Bel caught her and put her on his back.

"Ushishishi. Froggy, who shall be in charge of interrogating this time?"

Ok so that's my first fanfiction. Pleasepleaseplease no hate reviews. And if you guys are gonna review, then please vote if you want 6996 or 1896. (Mukuro x Chrome or Hibari x Chrome) and also vote if you want 8059 or 5986 (Yamamoto x Gokudera or Gokudera x Haru) I don't mind writing yaoi seeing as I'm gonna do BelxFran anyway. I can't stop laughing when i imagine Mukuro hiding behind a bush listening to Chrome fight with Glo Xinia and his gang. So. Reviews?
