So, this is the second chapter to Reborn from the Snow. Not much to say here so I hope you enjoy!
People of many ages stood at the Token Stadium waiting anxiously for the star of the show to appear. A cloud of smoke exploded on the stage and from beneath it stood a raven haired boy smiling brightly. Dressed in casual clothes, the boy stood out amongst the dancers standing in a salute behind him. In the midst of confusion, he called out to the audience, questioning their excitement. Which lead the crowd to respond with a roar of whistles and squeals. The boy gave a nod of approval and disappeared into the darker side of the stage. The crowd briefly went silent then grew louder at the sight of a single girl walking to the center of the stage. Lights of different colors danced over her, lighting the stage for all to see the pink haired girl raising the mike to her face as the music started.
"Who's that?"Nana Sawada asked her son staring intently at the dancing idol.
Tsunayoshi Sawada turned his eyes away from the television screen to scowl at his mother, "You don't know who Trinity is mom?"
"Trinity?"Nana looked thoughtful."Ah! You mean that little idol girl?"Nana asked.
From beside the brunet, a small baby dressed in an custom made suit nodded."Aa, Trinity is just her stage name. Her album 'The Void' has made her the number one teenage idol in Japan. Tsuna's head over heals for her."
"R-Reborn!"Tsuna cried."Don't tell her that!"
The smaller of the two ignored him."Poor Kyoko."He said."Dumped off by some idol."
"Stop it Reborn!"
"It's true isn't it?"
Tsuna didn't answer. He turned back to the idol who was busy stepping to the beat of her song's chorus. Her entire body was covered in sweat from the intense dancing and from the look in her eyes, she seemed completely focused on her singing. But the idol's professional posture didn't fool Tsuna. To him, it felt like Sakura was crying through her song, calling out desperately for someone who could truly understand her.
Before he had a chance to watch any longer, the song ended and the stage went black.
With her eyes closed and feet lifted on to the desk of her make up room, Sakura finally managed to get her tense muscles to relax. Dancing and singing for two hours straight seriously put a strain on her body. And just when she managed to drift off to sleep, a gentle knock on her door snapped her awake and made every fiber of her body tight with pain.
"Come in."She whispered.
The door to the small make up room clicked open, revealing a tall blond haired boy dressed in black pants and a dark orange jacket.
"Hey, Sakura."He said softly."That was a nice concert. You were really into it today."
At the sound of the boy's familiar voice, Sakura looked into her mirror and towards the cerulean eyes staring back at her in it's reflection. Standing at her door was, Naruto Uzumaki.
"Boss,"Sakura said, slightly surprised."What are you doing here?"
"I came to see your concert, of course."Naruto said."Is that a crime?"
Twisting her swivel chair around, Sakura glared at the blonde."You're always too busy or lazy to come see my concerts."
The blonde shrugged, making his way over to her "Today I had different plans."Naruto said with a shrug."There's a rumor going around about you."
Sakura turned back around."Yeah, from who?"
"The mafia."
"What kind of rumors is the mafia spreading about me?"
"Oh, I don't know, stuff like,"Naruto narrowed his eyes at her, "you're leaving the family."
The pink haired girl froze as Naruto's strong arms wrapped themselves around her shoulders and his warm breath pressed against her ear. Touching each other this way was common between the two but the feeling this time made her feel afraid. In his arms, it felt like life was slowly being sucked out of her.
"Are you leaving the family, Sakura-chan?"
Sakura opened her mouth to speak but when she expected to hear her voice, she heard something that sounded like a squeak and a sigh. Was it because she lost her voice from too much singing or because the fear swelling inside took it away? Either way, Sakura knew if she didn't say something soon, things would turn for the worse.
"Because if you are."Naruto said with a sigh."You do know the consequences of leaving the family."
Sakura wanted to say something, tell a lie at least. Every second she spent under him made it harder and harder for her to think.
Eventually her wish came true.
"Its true I'm leaving."She paused."But I never said I was leaving the family."
Naruto raised a brow."When will you be leaving?"
Sakura dropped her shoulders, her beating heart managing to slow in speed as her thoughts returned to her."This weekend."
"When are you coming back?"
Emerald eyes glared, "Don't worry about it."She said."And don't follow me either. It's hard to relax when I have your little slaves stalking me down every corner."
"So it's a vacation?"
"I never said that."
"What are you saying?"
Sakura opened her mouth to say something when she was interupted by a familiar voice calling her from down the hall. "Sakura! That was the greatest concert I've ever seen!"Came Charlie's voice as he appeared at Sakura's door. His large smile fell once he realized who it was standing behind her. He quickly dropped to one knee and bowed his head so low it touched his stomach.
"Naruto-sama!"He cried."Sorry for my interruption."
Said boss separated himself from the idol and waved the boy off."No need to worry. The door was open anyway."
"Thank you sir, I don't deserve your kindness."Charlie whispered.
Naruto smiled at him as he stepped behind the door, "The servant of any of my loyal guardians will always be welcomed by me, Valliere. Please keep that in mind."
"I will, sir."
The blonde haired boy left without another word, allowing Charlie to stand and gawk at his charge. "What was that all about?"He whispered roughly.
"Nothing."Sakura said quickly, throwing him a glare.
Charlie glared right back, "Does he know?"
Sakura sighed and shook her head, watching as Charlie relaxed from the other side of the room. He glanced at the large black bag under Sakura's feet and frowned, "Are those you're things? Are you really going to join them?"
"I'm not joining."Sakura said."I'm only going to test them, see if their truly worthy of holding the Vongola name."
"And if they aren't?"
"Then, "The pink haired girl paused, "Then I return to Konoha as if nothing happened."
Standing from her seat, the idol grabbed her bag and headed for the door, only to stop once she reached Charlie's side.
"Stop worrying."She said."If something happens you're in the clear. Me leaving will have no affect on you what so ever."
"That's not the point Sakura!"Charlie shouted but stopped talking when he saw the glare his charge was giving him. Then just like their boss, Sakura left, disappearing down the hallway and into the harsh summer weather.
From then on her test began. Were the Vongola a fake or the get away she had been hoping for?
So, this is my second story that I've put up here and all but I'd really like to know if I should continue this or not? I mean saving me to your fav's list and putting me under your alert list makes me feel GREAT but I'd really like to know what you guys think of it? It would be a big help for me and a mental boost to keep this up! So…please….review. Thanks! XD
