Prologue
Normal POV:
A young girl lay on her stomach on her bed, her long clear blue hair spread over her back like a blanket. Her bangs are pinned to the side to allow her similarly colored eyes to see one of the many computer screens surrounding her. She is dressed in nothing but her undergarments and an oversized white sweater that reach mid-thigh. Her pale skin and long unkempt hair suggest that she has not been outside of her room in a ridiculously long time.
Her eyes squint to adjust to the long forgotten light as her door opens to reveal a small infant. The baby is dressed in a red Chinese qipao, and his long black hair is braided neatly down his back.
"Ni hao, Alice. Ni ji tian mei you can dao bie ren, a? Ni de jie jie hen dan xing ni chi bu gou."*
"Ni hao, Fong. Tell Kagura I'll eat when I'm hungry," the girl, called Alice, replies slightly grouchily.
The infant, called Fong, just chuckles quietly and continues to speak.
"Reborn says he thinks it's time to reveal ourselves to the Vongola," Fong states, thoughtfully looking at Alice to observe her reaction.
Alice lets out the smallest of smiles, which one would normally miss, except, of course, if you were Fong, which he was. Fong returns the gesture gently because he knows the rarity of the sight he just saw.
"Tell them to gather in the dinner hall on the ground floor," Alice murmurs, "I'll meet them there in ten minutes."
Fong smiles, nods, and gently closes the door behind him as he goes to find the six guardians to tell them to news. He laughs as he imagines their shocked reactions upon hearing that their antisocial leader will finally take her first step outside her room in months.
Translations:
* Hello, Alice. You haven't seen anybody today? Your older sister (can also mean a female acquaintance that's older than you) is worried that you aren't eating enough.
