Watching

There was a loud bang, followed by the sound of something hitting the floor.

A young boy looked from his hiding spot. He dusted himself off and peeked around the trash can. Standing there was a man dressed in all black. The only color he see could was the green the man held in his hand and the yellow stripe on his head. It was dark but the boy could see the man in the moonlight. In the man's black clothing.

The boy jumped when the man looked at him. 'His eyes are pretty' the boy thought. When he saw the man step towards him, he took a step back. Step forward. Step back. The steps towards him increased. The step back increased till the boy hit the brick wall behind him. Now the man was standing in front of him.

"Um… I-I didn't see a-a-anything," The boy said. He didn't want to die. Well actually dying didn't sound to bad. He's always been told he was useless and useless thing should die. He looked at the man straight in the eyes. "A-a-are you g-going to k-kill m-me?"

He could tell the man was a little surprised but he didn't let it show. He felt something cold pressed to his head. He's felt this cold many times. A gun was pressed to his head. He closed his eyes and waited. He heard something click but didn't open his eyes to check. He just waited.

Then there was shouting. The cold feeling was gone. When the boy opened his eyes the man was gone. The shouting was getting louder. The boy took a few steps to his right and crawled behind some boxes.

"...Damn he got to him before us," someone said. The boy held his breathe. He didn't want them to find him.

"When I find who did this I going to-!"

"To what? Get yourself killed? Kill the guy that dare to attack us?" The first voice said. "Only someone with talent can kill the boss. The kill was quick and there looks to be no struggle," There was pause.

"A hitman did it," a new voice said.

"How do you?" said the second voice.

"Someone placed bounty…."

The boy didn't listen to the rest, he just wanted the people to leave. That's when someone started shouting.

"So you're saying The Reborn killed him!"

Reborn. Was that the man's name? It sounded like a nice name. "Reborn…" The boy whispered very quietly. He liked how the name rolled off his tongue.

…R…

Watching from up above was said man, Reborn. He was tasked to kill the leader of a gang that was causing trouble for Vongola.

He watched from the roof of the building. Maybe he should kill these guys as well.

His partner clicked his tongue. Reborn looked back down. His partner was right, it's not worth wasting bullets.

He took one more glance down. Eyes searching for the small brunet. Not seeing for what he was searching for, the man turned and to leave.


I needed something to do while I have a little writers block for Game On!.

Don't worry, I'm not abandoning it. I'm just having problems with getting chapter four going.

Review on the way out.
