This is a KHR Mafia AU fic, there are a few changes such as:
· Xanxus is the Varia leader but is next in line to be the Vongola tenth boss
· Squalo and Gokudera are half brothers (Same mother)
· This fic is an XS and 1859 Fic (My one true pairing, I'm loyal and biased (^_~)
· Gokudera would not follow Tsuna like a love sick puppy EVER! He actually considers Tsuna a wimp.
· Chrome is not in this fic, Mukuro is instead.
· Hibari is the Varia Cloud guardian
There were few things that Made Xanxus angry… scratch that, he was always angry (Squalo can testify to that) but this was different, he was damn right murderous and the aura around him alone could kill. That scum Byakuran was underestimating Xanxus and the Varia leader would be damned if he let that trash win.
Byakuran had openly told the Vongola that he was going to take their rings, the Arcobaleno's pacifiers as well as destroy the Vongola and rumor had it that the Millefiore boss was currently building a weapon of mass destruction. The ninth had told Xanxus to handle the matter, as he was going to be the next Vongola boss and it would be an opportunity to show him his leadership skills. Also Lemitsu had told his son Tsunayoshi to join them on the mission as he would be the next CEDEF leader.
So here they were in the Varia mansion, having a meeting to discuss the latest threat to Vongola, the Varia, Reborn, and three kids (In Xanxus words) trying to figure out what to do.
"Oi, trash who are those?" Xanxus asked Tsuna pointing to two males next to him. Tsuna scratched his head nervously and replied "Ano, this is Yamamoto Takeshi, he's our Negotiator, and he is good with swords." Squalo looked at the one Tsuna had called Yamamoto, the kid had a big grin on his face, and Squalo couldn't picture the brat with a sword, he looked too innocent.
"Voii, can you really fight with a sword." Yamamoto replied by laughing cheerily, and for some reason that ticked off Squalo. Tsuna continued his introduction and introduced a tall blue haired guy with a weird hairstyle.
"This is Rokudo Mukuro, he our other negotiator, he's an expert illusionist." The Mukuro guy interested Xanxus and Squalo, but for some weird reason Hibari hated the guy, perhaps it was the creepy smile on his face, the pineapple hairstyle or his general dislike for illusionists, either way something about the Mukuro guy made Hibari want to bite him to death.
After all the introductions the meeting began, Reborn started the meeting "Byakuran is building a weapon that completely absorbs all dying will flames, how exactly it's done, we have no idea but a reliable source says he's creating a device that uses dying wills and some deadly highly radioactive materials, which creates artificial life forms such as animals and humans, the device apparently can also be used to make specially advanced military grade weapons."
"HIEE, how is that possible."
"Dame-Tsuna, anything is possible, the issue is how to fight against him if the rumors are true, it would be almost impossible to fight as the artificial animals gives of a shockwave strong enough to destroy a building. The Vongola has never dealt with anything of this scale before." Reborn brought out some files, with information and blue print about the new weapon, each person in the room was given a copy. Lussuria read the file and with each page his smile faltered, his face turned sickly pale. If this information was true, then the Vongola had almost no chance of winning, the only people who didn't look disturbed by the information were Xanxus, Squalo and Hibari.
The file contained some information Squalo couldn't make out, it was filled with drawings and formulas of all sort, he was by no means stupid, but this was beyond him, there was only one person he knew that would understand all this scientific stuff, just thinking of calling the brat gave him a headache. He was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't notice Reborn staring at him.
"Squalo, you seem to be thinking of something, do you have an idea of how we can destroy this thing?"
o.0.o
There was another meeting, to discuss the same thing as last time- Byakuran's new weapon, the same people were present although this time Collonello and Giannini were present, the meeting was interrupted with the doors banged open, and a very angry guy with slightly long silver hair stormed in, looking as if he wanted to murder everyone in the room. The intruder had a small bag that made Tsuna suddenly shiver.
"VOII, You shitty brat, you're late."
"Like hell, you fucking ruined my plans, why the fuck am I here anyway?" Xanxus smirked, he had never personally met Squalo's brother but he had done his research on the guy and Squalo talked about him a lot (Only to him of course, very few people knew the Varia strategy captain had a brother), the younger silverette had the same behavior as Squalo a decade ago, it was amusing watching the two silverette insult each other, it was their way of showing affection.
"VOII, this is more important?"
"Che, it better be." The rest of the audience watched the young male who just spoke to Squalo like that in astonishment, Squalo didn't even slice him up or make any attempt to hurt the foul mouthed intruder it was almost friendly. The Varia strategy commander got one of the file and threw it at the other silverette who caught it mid-air, opened it and read the content. His mood changed from angry to serious immediately, he dropped the bag he was carrying on the floor.
"Is this shit real? I heard about the rumors but I didn't think it was true." Squalo's lack of response meant it was true. "This shit shouldn't even exist. Fuck this is bad, a device like this would probably be supervised by the government; Italy doesn't even have the resources do build something like this. " His comment shocked everyone, as no one knew if the weapon was real as well as how to destroy it. Reborn broke the silence.
"Gokudera Hayato"
"Reb… before he could finish the word a book was thrown at him with a force strong enough to knock him down." He stood up and turned to the person who threw the book and was face to face with a blue eyed blond arcobaleno with a gun fetish. "Oi, the fuck, did I do this time."
"Is that how you greet me- Kora? You still owe me a gift from last time."
"Che, I got your gift here." He hand the bag he had dropped on the floor earlier to Collonello, who opened it and smiled. Colonello's smile made Tsuna move a few inches away from him.
"Ano, Gokudera-kun. Who are you." Gokudera glared at Tsuna who cowered in fear, the silverette muttered a silent 'wimp'. Xanxus smirked at this, he was seriously starting to like this guy, luckily for Tsuna, Reborn answered the question."
"Gokudera Hayato, Hacker and International thief, wanted in 9 countries, Younger brother of Squalo." Everyone (Except the Arcobaleno's, Hibari and Mukuro) gasped in surprise, that answered why Squalo didn't slice the guy, as well as why Xanxus didn't shoot him.
"Kufufu, so you are the Gokudera Hayato, I'm a fan." Gokudera smiled, something about the blue haired guy, gave him the creeps but he'd be damned if he let it show.
"That still doesn't explain how you know about the device." Giannini didn't like the guy, he had heard some things about Gokudera and none was good.
"Shut it fatty." Xanxus smiled, Gokudera was definitely Squalo's brother, they were so alike. Gokudera sat down and read the rest of the file. "Shit, destroying this isn't going to be easy, apart from dealing with the shockwaves, you'd end up with radiation poisoning if you are within 3 meters of it."
"So you're saying it impossible- Kora?"
"I didn't say that either, the first thing is to find out where it is, because it is definitely not in this warehouse."
"It's not?"
"Fuck no, it has to be in a place at least 10 miles away from people or building, preferably underground, the device is highly unstable, and can easily explode if the right conditions are not met, it also has to be supervised constantly and the experiments has to be done in a spacious and restrained place in case the animals go out of control. This shit is probably in a secure high tech factory, it doesn't look finished though, that doesn't mean it doesn't work, if the notes here are correct then it would work but it wouldn't be stable, a warehouse wouldn't be a good place for this."
"Are you sure? I mean it might not be the safest environment but there could be a possibility." Tsuna asked, his previous timidity replaced with seriousness, Gokudera laughed dryly.
"Have you ever been exposed to Xephyl radiation, you die within ten minutes if you're lucky." Tsuna winced. "Even a little exposure to Xephyl can make your heart shut down in an hour, putting this much in a warehouse is suicide." Tsuna turned green, he was starting to consider backing out of this mission, it was too dangerous and way too risky. The room was silent, everyone absorbing the news. Gokudera decided to ease the tension."
"But with the right protective gear and a few shots you should be immune to the radiation for about two hours give or take." Okay, Tsuna knew the silverette was trying to cheer them up, but being told you would have two hours before your heart shuts down was not the most uplifting news.
"What about the shockwaves -Kora?
"Spanner and Shoichi should be able to make a suit that would withstand the shockwaves. We need to find out where it is before we can plan on destroying or stealing…"
"VOIII, you are not stealing this shit!"
"The fuck! Why not?" The Varia guardians and the Arcobaleno watched the siblings arguing with an amused smile.
"VOII, I'll hand your ass over to those German bastards if you steal this shit."
"Cmon, it worth almost a hundred million." Everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
"The fuck!"
Xanxus was amused, Gokudera was like a younger version of Squalo, Giannini had tried to argue with him but the hacker had explicitly told the Vongola engineer he would put him in a cage and ship him to México, and then started calculating how much he could make from his organs, needless to say Giannini was silent till the meeting ended.
Tsuna definitely did not like Squalo's brother, Squalo was crazy enough adding a younger version of him to the mix was hell, Gokudera kept calling him 'wimp' and replying with 'Aye, Aye Princess' which annoyed Tsuna, although Tsuna had to admit the hacker was terrifyingly intelligent and his help was needed in fighting Byakuran, he had noticed the barely concealed pride in Squalo's eyes when Gokudera was explaining how the device functioned, despite the siblings arguments.
Hibari disliked Gokudera the moment he stormed into the meeting; the younger silverette was loud, annoying and looked weak, When Reborn said he was a Hacker and a Thief, the dislike turned to extreme irritation. But when Gokudera began to explaining how the device worked, he could see the intelligence in the man; he assumed that the silverette wasn't completely useless after all. When Gokudera called the CEDEF herbivore 'princess', or threatened to ship the pathetic engineer and sell his organs, Hibari was amused. At the end of the meeting Hibari concluded that Squalo's younger brother was an interesting guy.
Lussuria, liked Gokudera from the moment he walked in, he was young, sexy and had beautiful tattoos, he was even more excited when Reborn said he was THE Gokudera Hayato – the famous Hacker and international thief, unfortunately that excited died when Reborn added that he was Squalo's younger brother. When Gokudera snapped and threatened Giannini, Lussuria saw the similarities between the two brothers, He wasn't going to give up though, after all it wasn't everyday one found a sexy, smart, famous guy and single (He wasn't sure of that one yet, but even if he wasn't Lussuria wasn't one to give up easily)
Gokudera was excited to meet his brother; it had been almost a year since they saw each other, even though they talked to each other occasionally. He was wanted in Italy and his brother's position in the Varia was technically one of the reasons he couldn't be arrested here, still he had planned to rob a bank but the pilot had refused to drop him where he wanted, even when he threatened the bastard he still didn't budge, so now here he was dropped in the Varia mansion against his will thanks to Squalo.
His anger died when Squalo threw a folder at him, and the contents of the folder shocked the crap out of him, who the fuck wanted to build something like this?! The person in charge of this was either psychotic or suicidal, or probably both.
He took a minute to study the rest of the people in the meeting, he already knew the Arcobalenos and Xanxus; the pineapple haired guy creeped him out, the smiling guy was cute but seemed to ooze stupidity, the blonde guy wearing a tiara was probably gender confused with a weird laughter - shishishi? the mustache guy with umbrellas behind him was fucking ugly, the gothic looking baby was probably an Arcobaleno, nothing seemed wrong with him/her, the guy wearing sunglasses indoors with a ridiculous flamboyant hairstyle looked crazy as fuck, for some reason he felt as if the crazy guy was ogling him, he felt a chill run down his spine at that thought, The raven haired guy with the frown was hot though and was probably only a couple years older than him.
