I'm back for another chapter. Sorry this chapter was a little late had a busy weekend and I have been really tired lately, but I promise I'll be on time for now on.
Hope you guys had a wonderful weekend!
After a review from last chapter I will try my best to not have way to many POV's since it might confuse you guys.
Disclaimer: I do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn
Now on with the story!
Oh also I forgot last chapter
"This means thoughts"
"This is speaking"
Chapter 2:
I-pin POV
"What have I done. I'm completely lost." Pulling out my phone hoping to have service to call for help was quickly extinguished when I noticed I had no bars. Frowning I took in my surroundings, the hotel was a 2 story building so there was no way I could see it.
"I'm a highly trained assassin and yet I lost my way in a forest! That's Lambo's job not mine. Sigh. There's nothing to do but wait here I guess."
The clearing had a few medium sized rocks scattered so I walk to the closest one and sit on the grass with my back on the rock. And now I just sit and wait.
Author's POV
Fon was not happy to say the least, he was just sitting there quietly with his arms crossed over his chest, eyes closed, and head down. I-pin has been gone for over an hour, she wasn't in the hotel or anywhere else so the only place she could be was the forest.
Leaning over to whisper to Fran Lambo asked "Fon's being awfully quiet, how calm do you think he actually is?"
Not even bothering to give him a glance Fran replied "He might not show it but there's no doubt in anyone's mind that he's actually pissed. Fon just doesn't show it."
Finally deciding that enough time has passed Fon opened his eyes and got up from his seat "I cannot sit here anymore while I-pin is out there. She is strong enough to fight against animals but who knows what else is in there. I'm going to look for her."
Lal Mirch spoke up " That's not a good idea to just blindly walk in there and look for her, it won't do anything. Just send Bester to look for her."
It was quiet for a few seconds before Mammon broke the silence "You do realize that Bester is a cat and not a dog don't you? It's like telling a cat to fetch."
Realizing her mistake and blushing heavily she tries to redeem herself "T-that's not what I meant. Don't cats and dogs have the same senses?"
Pushing his glasses up Verde answered her question "It is true they have the same sense but cats hearing and sight are much better than a dogs. Cats can hear higher frequencies than dogs so they like a woman's voice better than a male's. When it comes to sight cats can see better in the dark and can see much more detail at 200 feet rather than a dog-."
Verde was going on and on about the difference in senses to those around him but nobody was listening. Walking away from the unnecessary educational lesson that Verde was giving Fon walked over to Xanxus to ask for his help.
"Xanxus, I already know the answer but-"
"Then why ask if you already know the answer. It has nothing to do with me."
"She is family though why would you not help her. Look all I ask of you is to send Bester out to look for her." Staring at each other for a few minutes Xanxus finally gave up surprisingly and agreed.
"Don't get me wrong I'm not doing this for you, she's the only one I can tolerate." Pulling out his box animal and putting in his Sky Flame Bester came out. "Look for small trash she's in the forest."
"Meow" With that Bester left in search of I-pin
"Do you always have to call them trash?"
"Shut up."
I-pin POV
"OH MY GOD! I've been out here for almost an hour and 15 minutes. Are they really not gonna look for me." Groaning I lay down on grass not caring that my clothes will have grass stains later. Master Fon will not be happy that I walked away without saying anything he's taught me better than that.
"But I have to admit the animal spray that I brought with me is keeping all those wild animals away from me,. It's even keeping the bugs away how lucky!" Putting my head into my hands I think to myself because I must be going crazy, I've started talking to myself in the middle of nowhere.
It was a few more minutes before I heard something coming from the bushes,I quickly sat up and looked in the direction it was coming from. It was common sense that if you hear something never go near it could be potentially dangerous and since its I'm in the forest it could be anything from a bear to a wolf. So instead I quickly jump behind the rock was lying on and hide until the unknown presence makes itself known.
"I have 2 options, one I can fight against the animal and knock it out or two just hid until it goes away but the problem with that is it could stay here and if I try and run it'll chase me even deeper."
"Meow"
"Huh meow." Now I'm confused peering over the rock I was delighted to see a familiar liger. I called out to him. "BESTER, oh I'm so happy to see you."
I run over and throw my arms around his neck giving him kisses all over his face. Bester didn't mind this at all, I spoil him with treats when Xanxus isn't looking, he purred at the attention I was giving him.
"I'm so happy to see you my sweet Bester, when we get back and eat dinner I'll give as much meat as I can ok. Now let's go" Standing up from the grass and dusting myself off I follow Bester.
"Hey Bester was Master Fon upset?" Normally people assume animals can't understand questions like this only orders but not Bester. He nodded. I knew what that meant for me, divine punishment. Within 10 minutes we were back at the beach where everyone else was, no one seemed to notice me except Lambo.
He pointed in my direction and yelled out "Ah I-pin's back!" Immediately all eyes turn towards me, smiling weakly I gave a slight wave. "Hi."
Master Fon was in front of me before I could even blink, closing my eyes awaiting for punishment I was surprised when a pair of warm arms circled around "Master Fon?"
"I glad that you are safe" pulling back to look at me "You are not injured are you?" Shaking my head signifying that I was not, he smiled. "That's good now go get cleaned you are covered in grass stains."
"Yes master. Come Bester I doubt Xanxus will care that you're with me." And it was true Xanxus didn't even bat an eye towards us or tell Bester to return to his box and with that we started walking towards my room.
Fon POV
I let I-pin go and get changed after I was assured she was not injured just covered in grass stains. I walk to where Xanxus was sitting to thank him for sending out Bester most likely he will tell me he doesn't care.
The closer I got I noticed that Reborn was sitting in the chair next to him giving the appearance that he was taking a nap but we all knew that he wasn't, for one he would have a little bubble coming out of his nose.
"Xanxus, I just wanted to thank you and your box animal for helping find I-pin." With no sign of acknowledgement I sat down in the vacant chair on the other side of Reborn.
"You're just gonna let her off no punishment or anything for making us worried?" I knew he wasn't sleep.
"No nothing bad happened and besides we're on vacation no point in punishing her for wanting to explore." As long as she doesn't get into trouble I'm not gonna punish her.
"Hmmm I guess so she's your daughter."
I-pin POV
Drying my hair and putting it into a ponytail I walk to my suitcase since I haven't put anything away yet. Opening it up I take out a pair of red shorts and a red qipao shirt, giving myself the ok after looking in the mirror. Grabbing a pair of black and sandals I slip them on and call over Bester who was sleeping on my bed.
"Time to go Bester. I think by now dinner should be ready." Walking out the door I close it behind him and we made our way to the beach. Ya know everytime I go back and forth it feels shorter and shorter and before you know it you have arrived at your destination.
"Welcome back I-pin"
I sat down where all four of them are at the table right next to Fran "Thanks Futa. So what did you guys do after we seperated.
"We went to gather firewood for the week Dino asked us too. Although I had to bribe him with giving up his desserts to me." There was no way the Fran and Futa went willingly they don't do manual labor.
"Actually I was tied up and dragged against my will and Fran was annoyed to the point where he had to agree or Lambo wouldn't stop."
"There we go, I knew it was too good to be true."
"But if you didn't go we wouldn't have brotherly bonding time now would we?!" Neither of them gave a sign of acknowledgement about his statement.
"Well I'm glad you guys had fun, meanwhile I got lost walking around a forest that had no signs or any type of path for me to get back. But I had Bester come to my rescue in the end." I lean over to where Bester was lying next to me on a blanket and pet him thanking him once more for coming to get me.
All four of us just talked to each other with the occasional jabs thrown wherever but they were friendly so no hard feelings. Soon enough Kyoko, Haru, Chrome and the three herbs were telling us that dinner was ready. It was grilled meat, vegetables and salad, I know I was going to have to force Lambo to eat his salad he always makes some type of excuse to not eat them but not today. There's no running.
Grabbing a spoonful of salad I put it on his plate without him noticing all he cared about was the meat I also put some salad on my plate, next was the meat I grab 2 portions worth for me and Bester since I did promise him. Lastly was the vegetable there was a wide assortment so I grab mushrooms, peppers, and tomatoes since I really liked those. Walking back to my spot I sit down and start eating.
"Here Bester hurry up and eat it." I whisper to him and give him a big piece "Good boy."
"Does Xanxus know that you're feeding him?" It was Tsuna-nii that asked me. "No and I intend to keep it that way and plus it doesn't hurt to spoil him."
I give him another piece but this time I wrap a small piece of mushroom inside, he's exactly like Lambo when it comes to vegetables so gotta hide it.
"I'm also trying to get his diet on track he may be a box animal but he's still an animal and they need proper care."
"Hahaha I guess so now eat you haven't had anything since we got off the boat."
"Ok Tsuna-nii." Walking away Lambo, Futa, and Fran come back and I place Lambo's salad on his plate. "Eat it no excuses whatsoever."
"Ugh fine but only because I get twice as much dessert." Hey that works for me as long as he eats it.
For the rest of the night nothing eventful happened, Lambo got his dessert as promised we talked with some of the other family members and cleaned up our mess to make less work for the hotel staff. It was close to 12 am and I was feeling really tired and so were the other 3 we told them good night and started walking towards our room.
"Hey I-pin you do realize that Bester is following us right, shouldn't he go back to his box?"
I had forgotten about Bester but it shouldn't be a problem right if he stays out.
"Hey Xanxus can I keep Bester for the night?"
"I don't care." I took that as a yes quickly thanking him we walk towards our rooms. Since my room was further I say goodnight and walk into my room.
Turning on my lights I take off my shoes and get out of my clothes and undergarments. I chose a pair of shorts and a tank top for my pajamas it's really hot on the island even at night, then walking to the bathroom I get changed, brush my teeth and wash my face.
I turn off the light and crawl into bed with Bester on top of the blankets, with him quickly falling asleep leaving me to my thoughts. "I had a fun day even though I was lost for a little bit but otherwise I was happy. There was no fighting occasional angry outburst and no shooting. Haha maybe tomorrow will have even more excitement." I close my eyes and fall into dreamland within seconds.
I am so sorry guys that this chapter was delayed so much I originally wanted it to be uploaded last week but my sleep has been way off like I wake up early then out of nowhere am tired all of a sudden and falling asleep without even knowing.
