Chapter 2: The Promise
~Kumusta!~
Oya~! Here comes the 2nd part! Enjoy~!
Summary: Vindice goes somewhere for the All Souls Day. Meanwhile, Luna has an unusual guest.
" Luna, are you sure you are not coming along?"
" Yes, I am very sure, Bermuda-san. I need to take care of this alone today."
" ...If that is your wish. Take care of the HQ while we're gone."
She smile. " Will do~!"
[Bermuda's POV]
I was really worried about that girl. It was just 3 months when it all happened.
3 months ago when the curse is finally broken. It was the time of celebration, but she can't when someone she was close to was gone.
That guy. Even he died he just can't stop hurting others, huh?
Speaking of that guy, we are going to a place where we all promised that our revenge will be successful, whether we sacrifices for destroying the current- no -former Arcobaleno System.
We made a monument that has the names of former Arcobalenos who died without becoming Vindice, died of battle, died together with us.
Every year, we state our usual promises in front of monument. But today it was different.
" We will protect the new system, the rules and regulation of Vindice, and we will sacrifice anything for the sake of the Law. Today, here and now, is our new promise. Guide us accordingly."
[ Luna's POV]
3 months are already passed and I can't seem to forget it.
Well, he just died in front of me when I finally saw him again for as long as I can remember.
That Worm-I'll kill him if it is the last thing I do!
Inhale, exhale...
Balance..balance...Light and Dark...there.
Maybe having a 1 year vacation really helps.
"-Who's there?"
I looked around and saw no one.
" Huh? That's strang-!"
" Luna-sama?"
" AHHH!"
I hide behind the table. Is he really him?
" M-Mist?"
" Yes, It is me. But you can call me Mewt. Or Kawa-"
" Ok, ok. Geez. Don't scare me like that! You know for a reason I can sense more spirits roaming today."
He laugh. I smile. It was like the days...
" Wait, where is everybody? I thought the others are here."
" They will be here any moment. Say. Do you have some ramen?"
I sweat-dropped. " So souls can eat huh...I'll be back."
I made 8 ramen (I feel they are already there) and make it's way back when I stumble to a familiar one.
" Sky- no -Sepira? Hello~!"
" Luna, I'll help."
" Thanks."
We immediately made it together to the living room when a sound of crashing and shouting was heard.
" WHAT IN THE TENTH HELLS HAPPENED?"
Storm and Rain is shouting while Mist and Cloud is fighting. The twins, Sun and Thunder just sit there, watching the others. They stopped and looked at us and paled.
" Mewt and Lucary started it!"
" You Storm just destroyed the table. Rain just tell you to fix it." Mewt looked at Rain and she nodded.
I looked at Mewt and Lucary. " Then why are you two fighting?"
" I just want to punch him for becoming a coward."
" I am not a coward! I was just protecting this world!" Mewt counterargument.
" Yes you are."
" No, I don't!"
" Yes."
" No."
" Yes."
" NO! How many times-"
" Enough! Sigh..." I think I'll have an headache coming. " Then Shiny and Spiky, why didn't you stop them?"
" We am bored." They both answer.
Sigh. As expected...
" Well, Luna. Let's give it the ramen to everyone before it get's cold."
" But..." I looked at the room. It was utterly destroyed. " Let's all go to the Dining room.
" Here you go!"
Everybody (except Mewt who already ate it) just looked at it as it was the first time they saw it.
" You...already knew about it...right?"
They shook their head.
Sigh. Now I know why Bermuda-san gave me some aspirins before they gone.
" Ok...This ramen was just, um, noodles! Right." I looked to everyone. " You..know about noodles right?"
Everybody nodded.
" Well um. Let's eat~!"
After we finished eating...
" So, how are you been, my Queen?"
" Good, I guess. And I told you to stop calling me that."
" Hn. But this is once in a year that we can talk to you."
" Guys..."
" Ahaha! Well, Mist is already here so we are already complete!-Ouch, Sky, what's that for-! Oh, sorry Luna."
" I-It's OK. It just...I can't seem to get over. I should see that coming Mewt. I'm sorry."
He stand up and pat my back.
" I should be sorry. I should never leave my back unprotected like that. And sorry for not finding you. But just remember that we will always here for you, right guys?"
Everybody stand up and make a group hug.
" Luna, don't cry."
" S-Sepira?"
" We are always here for you...We promise this to you. No matter what." And one by one, they are gone.
I just sit there when someone approach me.
" ...Luna? Are you crying? What happened?"
" Eh?" I tried to wipe it. " N-No, I'm not. It just some dust." I looked at him. " Bermuda-san, you're early."
" Yeah, I know. We'll talk about it tomorrow. It's too late. You need to rest."
" B-But what about-"
" We can do it. Come on!"
He tried to pushed me. And I laugh at his antics.
" ...Thank you, Bear-san."
And I have a wonderful dream after a long time...
~Meanwhile~
" Is Luna already sleeping?"
" Yes Boss. We also finished cleaning the Living and Dining room!" Sebastian smiled, proud of his(and others) work.
" Yeah, I am curious with that. Now about the next event..."
" Next event?" Jager curiously ask.
" You...forgot? Oh my, you really forgot about it!" Bermuda sweat-dropped.
" Forgot? What should-OH SHIT! I FORGOT!"
Everybody paled. They also forgot about it.
" It's Luna's birthday. How can you forgot about it?! If she knows about this..!" He smiled evilly.
" D-Don't tell! Damn, I am very sure her sadistic side rub unto you."
" Well then, I will not. But do you have any suggestions for the party and gift?"
They start to think.
In more than 400 years, her birthday is not always the same as the other year. They always done it the first time she became member of Vindice.
" ...I have a idea."
They stopped and looked at their Boss intensely.
" It's like this..."
At first, they don't like it but then, they starting to giggle and laughing like they are NOT the most strongest and the most fearsome Mafia Police group.
The third chapter will be post on Wenesday, my birthday!
