Notes:
First, I would like to say that this is my first KHR story, so please don't throw forks at me!
Anyway, please keep in mind that whatever chaos the Vongola XIII cause here is entirely fictional. They didn't really happen and I hope they never do happen.
Ah! Speaking of the Vongola XIII…Let's just say the XIII is replacing the 10th generation, that's why the Arcobaleno are still the same people as they are in the original story. As to why the Arcobaleno are adults…let's say the Curse of the Rainbow doesn't exist here…instead… [spoilers that I will not tell you of here]
Well…I think that's about everything I wanted to tell you, so…I guess we should begin.
Opening
Lately, there have been a lot of mass murders going on in the Philippine archipelago. Manila, Davao, Cebu, Nueva Ecija…those are only some of the places that have been hit by the chain of murders done by the notorious group of mysterious killers.
The whole country was in panic.
Naturally, this alarming news has called the attention of the Arcobaleno.
Surprisingly, even Byakuran and his Guardians were concerned by this.
All the Arcobaleno sat around a clattered table in a hotel room somewhere in Italy, said table being piled with newspaper clippings and photos, up to the point that the table could no longer be seen under all the papers that topped it.
Reborn sighed, leaning back on his chair as he dropped a set of seven photos back onto the table. "This is unnerving…We've been chasing those seven psychos for months now, and they've eluded us every time." He groaned, annoyed in tone.
To think…a group of children has managed to escape him, the world's greatest hitman…and they did it with ease!
The Sun Arcobaleno was not pleased.
Either the new generation of children was even better than he thought or he's just losing his edge.
"The Vongola XIII is just too skilled." said Fon, taking the pictures Reborn had dropped, "They're awfully smart…They've perfectly concealed their identities, flawlessly planned out their disgusting and gruesome crimes…I'm afraid to admit it, but they're good." He stared intently at the pictures, even though the appearances of the people in the photos were already etched in his mind.
In the photos was a picture of one person, and one person each…
The first one had the picture of a somewhat petite girl with shoulder-length green hair. She was grinning at the camera as she held a gun to it, her other hand doing a peace sign as the ring on her finger glowed with a green flame. She had a white mask covering her green eyes, the symbol for the Lightning element drawn on the side. Her small form was clad in a jacket, jeans and sneakers, all colored in black. The only thing she wore that wasn't black was her green top.
Written in Lal Mirch's handwriting was but one word: 'Fulmine'
In the next picture, a girl with indigo hair tied into a ponytail. Her white mask had the Mist symbol drawn on it, and her indigo eyes could be seen as well. Like the first girl, she was dressed mostly in black, the only different color being her indigo shirt. She was seen in the photo to be throwing grenades at the panicking neighborhood with a wide Cheshire cat grin on her face. 'Nebbia'
Next was the picture of a girl with long, light blue hair, her mask having the Rain symbol and her eyes a bright color of sky blue. She could be seen slashing at people with a bloody axe, staining her similar black attire and light blue shirt with the blood of the innocent. 'Pioggia'
The fourth picture was of a red-haired girl, wearing a red shirt under the black attire that I'm sure you assume by now is the group uniform. Her mask had the Storm symbol, and her red eyes glimmered with delight as she watched chaos unfold from somewhere off camera. She was apparently throwing bombs at people from a platform. 'Tempesta'
Next was a blonde with golden eyes that was hacking and slashing at people with a cross halberd. Her flame was Sun, made obvious by the Sun symbol on her mask and the fact that her weapon had Sun flames on its blades. Her yellow shirt stained with the blood of her many killed, she grinned like she was mad. And she most probably was. 'Sole'
In the next one, a purple-haired girl who was shooting people as she touched her mask with the Cloud symbol. Her purple eyes were gleaming happily behind the mask, and she was grinning like the psychopath that she is at the camera. Remarkably, her purple shirt wasn't stained in any blood…not a single drop was visible. 'Nuvoloso'
The final picture was of the one who the Arcobaleno found most threatening. The girl in the picture stood up on the roof a building, the wind in her orange hair. She was grinning as she looked down, probably watching the chaos that was unfolding below. Her eyes were orange, hidden by black mask with no symbol. She was wearing black jacket similar to those before her over an orange shirt, a pair of blue jeans and black combat boots accompanying it. Her name, written in bold, was 'Boss.'
"Mu…just who are these Vongola XIII…" said Mammon as he laid down the newspaper he was reading. "They've added 597 more people to their kill count just a matter of hours ago…no survivors at all."
Verde eyed the pictures as Fon placed them back down onto the table. "They're unbelievable skilled, I'll grant them that." the Lightning Arcobaleno smirked as his eyes fell on the orangette's (Boss') photo, "I'm quite interested in their skills…to think, they, a bunch of children, can easily escape us, the seven strongest people in the world…"
"Could we please stop praising this band of psychopathic killers already?" Colonnello practically shouted, slamming his fist onto the table. "They're mass murdering innocent people! We have to put a stop to them soon, kora!"
"Calm down, Colonnello-san…we'll put a stop to them soon, definitely." said Uni in soothing tone.
Lal Mirch cleared her throat, catching everyone's attention. "If you all don't mind, I would like to get back to the plan we were discussing." she sighed, "Anyway, seeing as all the murders have been occurring in the Philippines, it is only common sense that the group's based there. We just have to find them and hunt them down."
Skull spoke up. "Only question…where in the Philippines do we look for them?"
"They could be anywhere, true…but I have a hunch on where they might be living." Reborn moved away the pictures and newspaper clippings, allowing them to drop to the floor, and thus made the map of the Philippines that was buried under all the stuff before more visible.
Pointing at a specific part of Luzon, the Sun Arcobaleno said only one thing: "Manila."
Uni gave a nod. "Our flight is scheduled for tomorrow. We should be in Manila by 10 a.m. tomorrow." The other Arcobaleno nodded in acknowledgement.
Fulmine, Nebbia, Pioggia, Tempesta, Nuvoloso, Sole and Boss…the Vongola XIII.
Those seven formed the corrupted generation of Vongola…mass murderers…crazy killers…
The Arcobaleno were determined to hunt them down.
Manila, Philippines
The ringing of the school bell signaled the end of the school day. One by one, students began to stand from their seats, grabbing their bags off the floor and leaving the room in their respective groups.
A girl smiled to herself as she stood, taking her phone from her pocket as she took her bag from the floor and hung it on her shoulders. She was with straight black hair that ended past her shoulders, her brown eyes hidden behind glasses with purple frames. As she walked through the halls, she typed a message on her phone.
'Meeting place. Now.'
Send.
As the girl got to her destination, the roof of the high school building, she was greeted by a group of six that was seated in a circle.
"Skye~!" greeted one of the six happily, doing a certain gesture that the Filipinos know all too well (you know, the Funeral Wreath gesture). She was a blonde, her hair slightly curly, though short on the edges and long on the middle, and her eyes were a deep crimson color. On her head was a very cute black cat hat. As clearly seen on her ID, her name was Ren Herrera.
Skye gained a dark grin on her face. "Oya…we're not under 'normal' hours anymore. You know how to address me during our fun time, Nuvoloso."
"Oooooops~ Must've forgotten that school's done for the day. Sorry 'bout that, Boss~" The cat hat-wearing blonde nodded as she said this, giving a sheepish grin in addition.
The black-haired girl simply smiled and took a seat next to her. "It's alright, Nuvoloso." Her expression turned much more serious as she took a number of files from her bag and placed them in the middle of the circle she and her group formed. "Anyway, onto business…As I'm sure you all know by now…the Rainbow is coming."
Scowls appeared on the faces of those around her.
"Tch." grumbled the brown-haired girl sitting across Ren. Her brown hair was until her mid-back, a lock of it dyed with a red streak, and her eyes were of a black color. Maria Cancio was the name on her ID. "Those annoying Arcobaleno are coming again…I'm getting tired of them. We just want to have fun, and one of them just appears, ruining our games. I hate it."
"Maa…Patience, Tempesta. We'll be rid of them soon." The girl with long, curly brown hair said reassuringly, a goofy grin of some sorts on her face. "I mean, we've been planning their arrival for months. Surely, we'll get rid of them this time." Cerise Tatel be her name.
The shortest girl in the group nodded. "Pioggia's right." she had curlier brown hair than the earlier girl that ended on her shoulders, her eyes a deep blue color. Alisa Ting. "Just chill, Tempesta. Those fudging Arcobaleno will be gone in a matter of days." she said, pulling her red-white-strapped jacket over her wrists.
A girl with her black hair tied into a ponytail, deep brown eyes and glasses looked at Skye. "Well, we're ready for the Rainbow, Boss. Would you like to say anything else in addition?" she said as she adjusted her ID, which had the name Alex Estanislao, under her uniform's collar.
Skye grinned madly. "I have but one thing to say, my dear Guardians…The rule of Vongola XIII, have fun."
The girl with curly blonde hair flowing down her mid-back, a black ribbon on her head, and sapphire blue eyes grinned widely. She looked just like your typical impression of the main character in the story Alice in Wonderland. Also, her name was Alice Cruz. "Got it, Boss!" she chirped, "Vongola XIII will not fail you!"
Sky chuckled lightly at the statement.
"I'm counting only you lot." she slipped her hand into her pocket and pulled out a ring that was attached to a chain necklace. Grinning like the Cheshire cat, she made an orange flame appear on the ring. "They come tomorrow. Be ready to greet our guests, 13th Generation of Vongola." The other six pulled out rings as well, a different color of flame lighting on each respective ring. With manic grins, they recited all together.
"We are mad. We are insane. We are Vongola XIII…and killing is our game."
Weeeeeeeeeeeeell? How was it? Was it alright?
Please review!
Just…please try to make any negative reviews not too negative…my heart can't take it…
