Aria looked at her pocket watch. It's 9.55pm. They should had been arrived. But forget about them. She couldn't even sense their presence in the close proximity.

Bammm!

Aria turned her head in southeast direction. There was smoke coming from there. She sighed.

Those dumbasses!

And she ran straight there.


Varia and Sawada's group had finally met. It was a tense atmosphere. Xanxus looked like he could rip Sawada limb to limb, while Sawada just wanted to get out of this nightmare as soon as possible.

Mafia was just too dangerous for him!

"Eeeeekkk!" Sawada shrieked. Xanxus' aura was just scary. Really scary. Not to mention his scarry face. It's the worst kind of scariness.

"Sawada Tsunayoshi!" Xanxus prepared to attack and killed his underlings without any care for the world.

"Hold it, Xanxus!" A voice joined in. "That's enough."

Aria looked from afar the drama before her. She knew the man. That was the head of CEDEF, the outside advisor, Sawada Iemitsu.

Also the father of Sawada Tsunayoshi.

Aria saw the letter that Iemitsu passed on to both Xanxus and his son. The letter with dying will flame indicated it came from the Ninth.

After few minutes, Xanxus was seen laughing maniacally. Aria facepalmed. She knew it could only mean one thing.

There'll be battle to decide the next Vongola Decimo generation.


The next night, both team finally had their first round of ring battle. Varia came in full-force with an exception of Xanxus, while Sawada's group only had him, Lambo, Ryohei, Yamamoto, Gokudera and Reborn.

"The first match of the night will be...The battle of the Sun Guardians." Cervello announced.

Aria entered the luxurious suit at the top floor of Meridian Hotel. "Salve." Her greeting was replied with a flying plate of untouched best beef steak in town.

"Trash."

Aria caught the plate and invited herself to dig in. "This is good. Such a waste."

Xanxus eyed the girl. "Didn't you watch the battle?"

"Are you stupid?" Xanxus became irked at her question. "How could I watch it if I'm here eating?"

And more plates coming for her head.
