Chapter 1 : The D-Day.
The sky was blue. The atmosphere was quite calm. Even the long-haired captain was silent, while driving, but it was easy to see he was pissed off.
-I'm not your driver, Fran. Get your fucking driving license.
-But, Captain, I'm too young for that… Anyway, it's here. Thanks for driving me.
-Be at the mansion, tomorrow, 8a.m. . Else, I'll kill you.
The teal-haired boy nodded and went out of the car. It had been hard to negotiate with the Boss to have a day off. It was even more to convince somebody to drive him here. He was lucky they were in Japan, otherwise he wouldn't event have been able to come. The fake Prince teased him a little, but when Fran said with his blank face "since you have time to mock me, senpai, you can drive me", the blonde disappeared suddenly.
-Okay. So, I have the present… My clothes are perfect… Good. I'll have no comments. Said the boy when the car was gone. He held a long box, wrapped with paper, with an orange ribbon on it.
With a lot of caution, we walked toward the disaffected building of Kokuyo Land. Each step was calculated – he had to avoid any mud spot on his black shoes.
The sky was blue. The atmosphere was quite calm. Everything was silent. So why this bad feeling ? He felt like something was wrong. Entering the building, he shouted, with a dead tone.
-Oi ! Master ! Your favorite… Excuse me, your only student's here ! Don't you come to welcome him ? You worth those Varia guys, in that case…
No answer. Not a sound. Not a sound of an argument, no voice, nothing. Fran had a knot on his stomach. Could it be he was worried ? That was stupid, he never was afraid or something like this. It was useless, being afraid wasn't of any help, whatever the situation was. But this time, it was different… No, he should stop having negatives thoughts. He walked toward to stairs, watching every object.
How many times did he fall on those steps ? How many time did he get scolded by Ken because he forgot to buy something, having to go back to buy it ? And this room, how many times did he get locked into it, because his illusions were too bad ? The flow of memories stopped when he stumbled on the last step. The box fell but he managed to catch it before it touched the floor. This was too precious to let it getting damaged.
But as soon as he stepped onto the principal room, he forgot this idea. The box crashed on the floor, but he didn't make a move to take it back. Petrified, he was looking at the blood puddle that was flowing from behind the only sofa. Suddenly recovering the control of his movements, he rushed towards the source of this blood. Somebody, badly injured, was lying there.
-MM ? Are you okay ?
Trying to keep a neutral voice was useless, he couldn't help but being worried. Was she still alive ? What happened ? Noticing she didn't answer he checked her vital signs. Her pulse was weak. She had a big opened wound on the stomach.
He took his phone and composed the emergency number. Calmly, he explained where he was, that he was with a girl injured, unconscious, losing a lot of blood. The person told him an ambulance would be here in a couple of minutes. He waited for fifteen minutes while trying his best to make a tourniquet with his hands. The ambulance finally arrived.
They asked him a lot of things he didn't know, like what happened. He answered, but it was like his mind was far away. Finally noticing he was shocked, the ambulance attendant told him to sit in the ambulance. Although he was still conscious, Fran lost any contact with reality. And, when he "came back to himself", he was waiting on a chair, on a white room, a blanket over his shoulders. A doctors walked towards him.
-Fran Smith ?
Yeah. That was the sordid name he gave. He needed a family name. So, the man was talking to him. Looking at him blankly, Fran said nothing, waiting for his to continue.
-We just operated your sister. She's out of danger.
Fran was a little relieved. But not as much as he thought.
-She's conscious and wants to talk to you. But if you prefer waiting, I could understand… You maybe need to calm down…
Fran interrupted the man by standing up, going to the room. She was there, lying on a white bed, wrapped in bandages. When she looked at him, a tear ran down her cheek.
-Fran… That's horrible… What they did… How could they…
Just like when he was a kid and she was the only feminine figure he could rely on, he took his hand.
-What are you talking about ?
-My clothes… My wonderful Ralph Lauren dress… They destroyed it… My dress… My lovely dress… That's horrible, oh, Fran, that's horrible…
She kept saying that, but the boy could guess she changed the subject of the conversation. Her grip on his hand became tighter. The flow of tears more intense. Softly, he asked.
-MM, what happened ? Where is Master ?
The evocation of Mukuro worsen her state. She was now really crying, so he gently took her in his arm. Like she did, when he was young.
-…Ce.
It was just a whisper. He didn't hear the full word. In fact, he did, but his brain refused to understand. Knowing what she would say, he asked anyway if she could repeat.
-The Vindice. Mukuro-chan, Ken, and Chikusa, are pursued by the Vindice. The only thing I could do to let them escape was to gain time. Fran, we have to save them, or else, they're dead.
Fran hesitated. He had a solution, but he wasn't sure it would work. And the Vindice were his only scare… Closing his eyes, he remembered all that Mukuro did for him. How he protected him when he was too weak to do it himself. How he treated him, scolding him when he was messing around but rewarding him when his illusions were good, smiling at him, ruffling his hair… No, he owed too much his Master to leave him in this kind of situation. Smiling gently at MM, he comforted her.
-Don't worry. I'll make sure they're okay.
And, taking his phone, he composed a number. A voice answered quite immediately, and he took a deep breathe.
-Bel senpai ? I need your help for the most dangerous mission you'll ever have.
I'd really like to have a review from you, that would be lovely 3
See you for the next chapter (it's a 3-shots) !
