Chapter 1: Tsubaki Flowers
I ran as fast as my legs could take me. Why was I running? No one other than the Kyoya Hibari was chasing me, of course I'd run. Only at the age of 13, and I was already called useless. In fact, I would proudly state that my name is No-Good Tsubaki.
"Come back here herbivore. I need to punish you."
"No way in hell!" I shouted, running out of Namimori Middle, my school.
As I wandered around, I hid near a shrine. For sure, Hibari-san wouldn't find me here.
"Oh, there's a girl here~."
Alarmed, I looked up to see a boy around my age. He had silver, fluffy hair and wore a fox mask. Even though it was summer, he wore a scarf. He probably attends a different school because I've never seen that uniform before.
"Um sorry, did I interrupt you while you were praying to the gods?" I asked him.
He smiled at me and picked up a leaf that was on the floor.
"I choose you." He said, and then left me alone in the shrine.
"What a strange person."
"Indeed. Now, Tsubaki, the punishment is going to be even scarier because you attempted to run away from me."
I screamed as Hibari-san appeared in front of me. He was preparing to strike me with his tonfa but I jumped to the top of the shrine roof and got away.
"My life would have ended if it weren't for my jumping power." I muttered to myself as I jumped from roof to roof, not even caring that I was wearing a skirt. I mean, no one really looks up these days. Rolling up the sleeves on my uniform, I took a break on a certain stranger's rooftop. Some people would call me a delinquent, others would say I'm just a loser. It doesn't matter if I'm skipping class either way, there's nothing to do in there. I'd rather spend my precious time practicing on the new song I have to sing. Yes, I am a voice actor but I specialize in singing. This song that I was given wasn't to my liking at first because it was rather scary, but now I really liked it. It was called Akakakushi and was rather creepy at times so I could tell it was meant for the horror movie I was currently playing a voice role in. I was the main character, a poor girl that wandered into the world of spirits and was chased endlessly by spirits who want to eat her. She dies many times but for some reason she always reincarnates and soon turns into a spirit herself and wanders the human world looking for people to eat.
"In the spiral door where Ubusuna laid; Your hand offered Camellia flowers.
In my inner shrine of dream, it was blooming and has a fragrant scent all night long-"
I finished the first verse pretty nicely. Smiling to myself at the soft, but pretty voice I was able to make and the strained voice that I changed to during the middle of the song.
"That's a pretty creepy song but I like it."
I looked up to see the same boy near the shrine standing next to me on the roof. He smiled at my alarmed look.
"You've got a very pretty voice."
"Thank you. I've got the talent of multivoice."
"Oh, that's pretty cool! You can change your voice to a different variety of people, right?"
I nodded my head. He held a leaf to his mouth and his smile disappeared.
"I like you even more now. You'll be my wife." He said and his smile reappeared at my shocked reaction.
"What!?" I screamed.
"You're going to be my wife. You see, I'm the god of spirits and most humans look alike to me so I decided if I ever find a human that looks different, they will be my wife."
"But I don't want to get married yet! I still have a career I want to pursue!"
"You can still pursue it. I'm the one who should be worried because I'm breaking the rules."
"What do you mean?"
"Normally, the god of spirits is supposed to eat his wife but you're too interesting~."
"That's, that's absurd! What happens if I no longer interest you?!"
"I'll eat you."
"I don't want that!" I said, stomping my foot on the ground.
"It's okay, I'll never get bored of you."
"But, you can't, I'm also a mafia boss." I unwillingly said.
A few days ago, I had been told that I was chosen to be a mafia boss for the Vongola Family by the world's greatest hitman, Reborn, who's also a child.
"Oh, that's so much more interesting~!" The boy said, as his eyes lit up.
"It is not! I don't even want to become a mafia boss!"
"It's okay, you'll make a great hitman! My name is Yuuki by the way. What's your name?"
"My name is Tsubaki Sawada. Wait, why am I telling you this!?"
He laughed a little, which made me calm down. He didn't seem bad at all. In fact, he seemed a little like a child who has yet to discover this world.
"Tomorrow there's a festival, do you want to go with me?" He asked me.
I stared at him as sparkles flew through his eyes. Sighing, I sadly agreed.
"Okay, I'll go with you." A small smile appeared on my lips.
"Great! I'll pick you up at your school tomorrow!"
"You know which school I attend!?"
"It's Namimori Middle, right? After all, I've been watching you for a long time."
"That's kind of creepy."
He simply smiled and then jumped down from the roof. I laughed a little as he waved goodbye and then headed towards the shrine.
"Well, although I'm against it, I'll admit it, this will be pretty interesting."
I decided to take a nap on the roof, hoping no one would notice me. To put me to sleep, I sang a song that my father taught me when I was little. It was said to protect me.
"Late at night in the autumn during my trip alone, I've been suffering from the feeling of empty sadness.
I miss my hometown, mom, and dad so much.
What I see in my dreams are roads back home." I sang before falling asleep.
