Chapter 1: The Boy In The Graveyard
The air stank of corpses. In the pile of corpses, sat a small boy. The boy was crying for
the death of his comrades, his head in his hands. A dark-haired teenager, most likely older than the young man, stared at the boy. He could not
understand why he cried. He liked how little the population of Namimori had become. No one bothered him often, some undead lurking after death +
from time to time, but he did not mind that either. It was fun to bite zombies to death; life would be boring without them.
" You," the older boy called. The younger boy, eyes still filled with tears, stared at the man.
" A-a-are, you alive?" the boy stuttered.
The other boy glared in annoyance. This child was alive, and was probably going to try to crowd with him. Even so the boy answered. He must as well, considering this boy was going to die soon, anyway.
" Yes. I am alive."
The boy's frown, turned into a perfect, innocent, smile. His smile with filled with joy, something that the other boy was not used to seeing. His smile was different from the zombies and corpses that filled Namimori. His smile was not only perfect, but it, it was alive.
The boy, could not restrain his happiness of seeing a real person, and ran towards the other, with open arms. He was shoved away though; his face was met with a metal tonfa, which bruised him. He fell to the floor, nearly landing on one of the corpse. He rubbed his new bruise, but slowly got up.
" M-my name is Tsuna," the boy introduced, even if he was not asked. The other man, though, did not answer, and slapped away the hand he extended towards him.
Tsuna sighed. His innocent smile escaped his face, and soon turned back to the sad frown he had worn before.
" I guess you think I am a zombie, too," the boy said sadly. He sighed. He gathered the things he had with him (a bag, pills, water, and woolen gloves) and slowly walked down the hill. The other man watched him walk down the hill. The man noted the corpses near him twitch. After moving his fingers, making sure the corpse could use his hands once more. When he finally got used to moving in his dead body, he grabbed the boy's ankle, trying to pull him down. The man watched.
" He will be dead soon," the man noted as he watched from afar.
The boy stared at the undead. He took the small case with pills, and with a PLOP, the top came off. He forced the pill down and wore the gloves. The gloves transformed into black gloves that were lit with fire. His head was also lit with fire, and even his eyes changed brown to orange. The boy, with a single hit, made the strong undead flying. Even the man was having a hard time dealing the undead. How could this young boy defeat the undead, with only one blow?
The boy after that, continued to walk down the hill.
" Hibari. Kyoya. Hibari," the boy muttered. Tsuna turned around with his innocent smile back. Hibari walked towards the boy. Tsuna smiled tears almost coming out of his eyes.
" Are you alive?" he asked once more to reassure himself. The boy nodded.
So what do you think so far? The first chapter is pretty short, but the next one will be longer. Please review!
