A/N: Yeyeyey~, Belphegor~, he is the winner so let's get him into some actions! Shishishi~, enjoy, peasants! /stabbed
"Awhh~, is it true that we'll get a new recruit today?" said the macho-looking man, asking the blonde man who played stabbing game with his froggy-hat partner.
The blonde man laughed, kept stabbing the froggy with his knives. "Ushishishi, you should ask our strategy captain." The knife finally hit the hat, causing it to complain flatly. "Whoever comes, he'll be a good target board. Ushishishishi~"
Then the room was filled with a scary though different laughter, hinting at what they'd do to the new recruit.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-Meanwhile-o-o-o-o-o-o-
The cold wind caressing your flushed cheek made you shiver as you slowly walked towards the large mansion in front of you. The building was surrounded by some unknown 'dark' aura and you somehow knew that this place was 'dangerous'.
"So…this is where I'll be living from now on…" you murmured to yourself as you maneuvered your leg to take another step, trying to erase your nervousness and slowly knocked at the door.
You'd rather have gone home rather than joining the Varia, but you couldn't change the fact that Nono had pointed you as the recommended one, considering your ability was great to the point that Nono could stand up and clap his hands happily while complimenting you, saying something like "That's amazing!".
You inhaled some of the surrounding air then let it out in a sigh, remembering the past was frustrating enough and even more when nobody opened the door after the third time you politely knocked on it.
You had no choice but the use of violence since all the guys in Varia were a bit 'weird', and because Nono had given you permission to use violence whenever you wanted… You lifted your left leg up then kicked the door until it flew away, allowing you to see the mansion's lobby.
When you heard a sudden clapping sound, you canted your head towards the source and you saw a boy –probably the same age as you, sitting in the stairs' landing while spinning a knife on his index finger, grinning mischievously at you.
"Ushishishi, so? Are you my new bull's-eye?" he said as he kept spinning his knife.
Ignoring him, you looked away and began observing the place. It seemed to be neat enough since there was no trash or any other guy's thing scattered on the floor, and you knew Xanxus's personality since you'd met him several times – it was natural since you were his cousin and that made Nono your uncle.
You pivoted on your feet and dodged sideways when knives came flying in your direction, glancing back at the blonde boy who was now standing.
"Ignoring the prince? That's quite discourteous peasant~. Ushishishi." His grin grew wider.
You sighed then started head for him, "Forgive my rudeness… one of the Varias, I assume? May I ask about your boss' presence?"
"Boss is on the third floor, playing throw with our strategy captain." Said a green-haired boy who made a sudden appearance at the top of the stairs, his expression flat as a pancake.
You bowed to him, "Thank you for your cooperation. Varia's mist guardian, I assume?"
"Yes, and… are you the new one? Thank you for coming at the right time so Bel-senpai won't have to stab my hat with his knife anymore." His words were sharp, despite his looking like a cute boy who wore a froggy hat.
The blonde one, who the other called 'Bel-senpai' seemed angry. An anger mark appeared on his cheek, you felt that he was glaring but you couldn't tell because his bangs were covering his eyes –and his style was kind of fancy, a tiara adorning his yellowhead.
"Shut up, froggy. The prince still hasn't declared your retirement." He tossed the green-haired boy's hat his throwing knife.
"Ah…Bel-senpai, you are wasting time. Better waste your time on noticing that our new recruit isn't standing where she was anymore." Again, he didn't show any emotion and kept running off his sharp tongue.
"Damn that peasant, ignoring the prince and now disappearing into thin air. Punishment should be given to appease the prince, Ushishishi~"
The green-haired boy sighed and yawned as he said, "Why don't you admit that you are a fake prince?"
-o-o-o-o-o-o-
You didn't encounter any of Varia members beside the two you had met downstairs as you moved to the third floor, to Xanxus' office. You knocked on the door then opened it after you heard a glass hit the back of the door; you looked at the shards on the floor after you opened the door.
"VOIIIIIIIIII! Who do you think you are, entering without permission?" shouted the white-haired man, he seemed to have beautiful long hair but one might want to reconsider when noticing it was wine-soaked.
The man who looked very bossy ,sitting on a big black moving chair, lifted up his hand which was already holding a glass of Martel and then threw it 'again' at his second hand-man. "Shut up, trash."
"Xanxus-nii… Do I need to give you the recruitment letter?" you began, ignoring the yelling long-haired man beside you.
The scary looking one glared at you, "No need to, just get your ass moving and start working, cow…"
He was making fun of you by calling you by a nick-name he gave you since you were a kid, but as usual he didn't even glance at you or tease you by smirking. Well, at least he didn't call you 'trash'.
"Arguing with you is a waste of time…" you sighed then turned to face the right hand-man, "I might need your guidance now, so why don't we get out so you'd show me around…"
Just when Squalo was going to yell at you, Xanxus hit him with something –which was clearly not a glass this time. "Get out….trash."
Then the both of you stepped up hastily, walking out from the room after you closed the door at your leisure.
"…So? Where is my room?" you asked.
"Che! Come with me!" he grunted but he moved, showing you the way to your room and after you put down your luggage, he guided you to the living room –where the Varia had already gathered .
"Shishishi, peasant~ running away just like a woman, aren't you?" the blonde one grinned at you, but you were sure he was pissed.
Suddenly a man stood up and approached you, checking you up and down in a 'scary' way then he got back to the way he usually acted, "Owiee~, what a cute one we have here~. I'm Lussuria, call me Lussu~. Ohohohoho~"
Oh yeah and you knew that he was kinda 'that way' once he grabbed and lifted your hand, greeting you happily. And you might want to admit that his hairstyle was…yeah…kind of fancy.
You tried to respond although you were a little shocked, "Nice to meet you…umm…Lussu-san…"
"Aaaaah~ that's a good one~. Owhh~ and I should introduce you, the white-haired man beside you is our strategy captain, Superbi Squalo." Lussu pointed at the man who was called Squalo.
"VOIIII! You do have some guts to barg in before allowed to, boy!"
'CLICK'
Did he….just call you…boy….?
Lussu went on with his introductions, "The weird one but also the most loyal to our boss, sitting on the black couch like he's the boss around here is Leviathan."
"Don't you dare become boss' obstacle, I'll kill you, you hear me little boy?"
'CLICK!'
Another sharp comment…boy…what a joke… they didn't even notice that you were a girl. It was your fault to though for wearing such boyish clothing –black shirt, covered with white short-handed jacket and jeans along with a pair of black-red sneaker worsened by your small breasts.
"Then~, then~, our well-known 'Prince the Ripper'. Belphegor~. He's kind of sadistic, so please just ignore him when he comes out holding something bloody."
After Lussu pointed the blonde one called Belphegor, the boy himself began, "Ushishishi, peasant, the prince will make sure you are my throwing knife's target. If you're a female maybe the prince could spare you, ushishishi~."
'CLICK!'
"And~! Finally our cute little one who's sitting next to Bel~ I'll introduce you to Fran~. Hmm~ hmm~, that's all of Varia~."
Fran greeted you well, but sharply…"Nice to meet you… since I'm younger than you I'll call you 'senpai'. Sounds good?"
'CLICK!'
You tried hard to show a smiling face, but failed, at least four angry marks appeared all over your face. "My turn I guess…" you trembled because of your anger, but you tried to hold it by clenching your fist.
"I am (f/n) (s/n)… Cloud's attribute…and I am a woman…Nice…to meet you…all…"
Your statement seemed to be so shocking that everyone, except Fran and Lussu, had a shocked symbol on their heads. Was the fact that you were a woman that unbearable ?
"VOIIIIIIIII! A woman joining Varia? I never heard that the new recruit was a woman!" Squalo swung the sword attached to his hand and yelled at you.
The guy named Levi stood up too and started complaining, "What is Boss' thinking, letting a filthy woman join Varia…"
You waited for the blonde's voice but never came to hear it; when you saw him, he was in deep shock.
"Ask Nono if you want… Xanxus-nii doesn't mind either…" you said, sighing out of disappointment.
Then Lussu suddenly began, "Didn't you notice from the beginning? Hohoho, Fran, you noticed?"
The boy nodded, agreeing with the macho, "Of course, Lussu-senpai. At least my vision of gender is better than others'."
You turned on your heels then paused a bit, "I'm gonna rest in my room… I'll take my leave now. Have a nice day…" whereupon you left.
In the middle of your way, you felt someone 'tapping' with something sharp. When you tilted your head, you saw Bel was tapping your back with the tip of his knife.
He then whispered, "The prince will show you around, ushishishi.", his usual laughter following along.
