I told Fran everything that happened. How I met the peasant, how he sent me to another world, who's Sora, about the princess that looked like him, how she imprisoned me and of course, how she turned into a dragonish creature.

He found it hard to believe. I told him I was there for days but he said I was only gone for one day. Was that possible?

Anyway, everything started to go back to the way it was for me, except for being heartless. That part of me changed. It's been a month since that necklace incident. Fran and I were on a mission again. And now our captain, Squalo, was with us. We got so bored on the plane that I ended up telling the whole "princess" and Sora thing all over again to the both of them.

What was the mission? Well, it was really unclear to us three until we got there. All we knew was a letter was given to Mammon by some random guy telling him to send any team of three from Varia to Japan. And there was one condition, I had to be in it. Is it for Sawada?

While we were on the plane, Fran was going on again with another set of weird questions. I wanted to throw him out of the plane.

"Hey, Captain! What would you do if we met that Sora kid? Would we hire him to join Varia? Huh?" he asked. Oh, Squalo looked irritated.

"There, there, Squalo. It's your fault he's in Varia anyway." I said, teasing him.

"Voooiii! How is it my fault?" he asked.

"Umm. You're kind of the one who lead us to Fran and negotiated with Rokudo." I said.

Wow. He totally forgot. Or was it just because he's thinking about something? Oh well.

After several hours on that boring plane, we finally got to Japan. The first thing I thought of was eating sushi at Yamamoto's place. Well, we can't go on a mission on an empty stomach, right?

The three of us headed for Namimori where we ate sushi. It was the best! We were about to leave when we ran into Sawada.

"Hiee. It's Variaa!" he screamed like a little girl. I still can't believe this guy beat boss and that Byakuran guy and Bermuda.

"Don't worry, Sawada. We're not here for you. I think the arcobaleno summoned us here." Squalo said.

"So, you got my letter?" Reborn came into the scene in a parachute. What is up with him?

"So, you really are the one who called for three members of Varia, especially for Belphegor." Squalo said.

"Well, not really. A friend of mine asked me to send that letter because he knows Mammon wouldn't trust him." He replied.

Then who was it? I was really curious. But before we got off the plane, Squalo told us, especially Fran, to let him do all the talking and asking. So, I shut myself up. Squalo tried asking Reborn who was really behind that letter. But Reborn said: "Belphegor, you're the one that he wants to meet. Come with me."

Me? Why? I wanted to know so I just followed Reborn quietly. We went to the forest just outside Namimori. Then he said:

"He told me everything. So, I think you'll love this. Just wait here."

After that, he went back to meet up with Squalo. I waited for ten minutes in the forest but nothing happened. I was about to leave when..

"Bah. There's nothing here. I'm going." I turned around to face the town. When I lifted my foot to take a step forward, something grabbed me from behind.

"Wait a minute, Belphe-kun!"
