"In the ancient rules of the Mafia, when twins are born, they must fight for the throne. If either one gives up, then the fight is over. Death is also a choice, if the candidates kill the other, the victor shall win the throne." Diana Mercuirone, the founder and head of the Vendice, the one that upholds the law of the mafia said behind her bandaged mouth as she read the book of 'Ancient Mafia Practices and its Rules and Regulations', her voice echoing throughout the dark mansions of the Vendicare, located in a secret place somewhere in the snowy mountains which contained the prisoners in its hollow inside. Rising from her throne made of Onyx and lack iron with intricate designs of roses and thorns and the Vendice's symbol above the throne, she made her way to the great floating orb not far from her throne, her long mid-thigh length black hair which seemed to glow eerily purple flowing out behind her, her navy blue cloak swished as she walked, her laced black just-below-the-knee high boots' sharp heels clacked on the floor, the sound echoed hollowly in the large throne room. Diana stopped as soon as she reached the giant floating orb.

She stretched a bandaged wrapped arm which was covered by her long sleeved black dress with high collars and covered her milky pale white skin till mid-thigh, the orb suddenly shined brightly and shrank down in size and fell to her pearly clean white gloves. The founder of the Mafia police brought the glowing orb nearer to her face, her sharp heterochromatic eyes, the left red and the right purple, gazed at the orb as images began to form within it.

She chuckled darkly as she made her way back to her throne and plopped down to the majestic seat, throwing the orb upwards towards the high ceiling, the orb enlarged to its original giant state as the images played itself in front of the sitting queen of Vendice, "Ne, ne, Bermuda-kun," She playfully called to someone within the corners of the throne room, shadows moved within the darkness and rippled like a surface's water before an infant dressed in a miniature Vendice uniform and covered with bandages from head to toe, a clear pacifier hanging round its neck proved that he is the Night Arcobaleno, "Yes, Queen?"

The baby, known as Bermuda said, half-jokingly to the founder, Diana chuckled inwardly as she accepted the joke with laughs and replied to her second-in-command as the little one nested himself comfortably on her left shoulder in a tone which made her seemed like she was amused by the events unfolding in the world full of irony created by Humans, "What do you think of those twins," she asked, pointing to the orb with her hand that had no burdens resting on her shoulder, "Which one shall ascend to the throne of the clam of time? The rightful Sky of my choice that had been abused since he was a little bambino? Or shall it be the dark wrathful Sky that abused my little Bambino?"

"With all due respect my de-" Bermuda started before he got cut off by Diana.

"Oh please, Bermuda von Veckenschtein. Respects can just go to the Vendicare." She complained as Bermuda sweat dropped a bit before restoring, "I'm sorry... Well in my opinion, Diana -sama, my hopes are for the rightful Sky, Sawada Tsunayoshi instead of the other one Sawada Ietsuna. Tsunayoshi-kun I believe has a bright flame and a great potential."

"I guess you're right Bermuda-kun. But let us enjoy of this new amusement that the humans gave us to enjoy." Diana said with a mad chuckle as the two relaxed themselves and enjoyed watching the unfolding images in front of them, "But of course, Bermuda-kun. After all, the rightful Sky is actually my and Primo's beloved child that was lost..."
