Chapter Two
by: La Plaridel
The first thing Hibari sees as he unlocks the door is that big goofy smile on this Italian and a hand raise as a greeting gesture. "Long time no see, Kyoya."
Unfortunately for this blonde, the skylark takes no interest upon such a so called reunion. Heck, he already met his future self not too long ago. "Great timing, I was about to begin my morning exercise."
"Ah no!" he quickly shakes his hands in disapproval. "There won't be any training from me, Kyoya."
"None that matters to me," he grabs his tonfas from who knows where, as he begins his first strike.
"I am not done yet!" He bellows as he backs away from his student. More strikes goes to the blonde as he dodges them all. He glances at Romario who sighs and forms a sweat drop on his forehead. Boy, he sure is lucky to bring Romario along if it has to be this guy.
"Listen," he dodges another attack again and again on each word he says. "Reborn sent me here to tell you about your special training!"
When the baby's name was mentioned, Hibari halts as his interest moves to that name instead. "The baby?"
"Yes." 'Ah, finally, he listens to me now.' "But before I will explain, is Haru inside?"
"Who?" Why would he question something so irrelevant and so unfamiliar to him?
This guy...how can he forget? Dino sighs as he scratches his ruffled blonde hair. "It's Tsuna's friend."
He doesn't understand who he was referring to but later realizes that it was that drunken herbivore. 'Ah, that herbivore. I almost forgot about her.'
Taking that look as a yes, Dino can now explain. "Your special training," his grin grows wider. 'This is going to be good.' "Your special training is to keep an eye on Haru at all cost."
……
Silence.
"Excuse me?" Hibari might be deaf by now. He really didn't hear that one right.
"Okay, make that you and Haru should keep an eye on each other or some sort."
What kind of training is that?! True, he despises being lectured or being trained by others but perhaps being trained won't harm anything as long as he can bite them to death.
But what kind of training that has something to do with a lowest of the low herbivore?
"You are bluffing," Hibari growls as his face darkens.
"I'm just saying as a messenger here!" Then Dino grins. "Besides Kyoya, have my future self already taught you enough? You are already strong enough since you defeated one of the Funeral Wreaths by your own." 'As my memory serves me right, my future self actually owed him one.' He recalls how Hibari brutally saved him from Daisy by kicking him out of the way.
"Wao?" He bemuses. "So the weak herbivore will be my next tutor perhaps?"
"Err...not that kind of way…rather, you will help her progress while she—"
"Get out," For some reason, he rather chooses to not bite them both to death than being insulted. "And bring that woman with you," he growls, very impatiently. "Both of you are trespassing in someone's house."
"You don't get any visits, do you?" Dino mutters.
Without expecting anymore words from the Bucking-Horse, the prefect turns around as he is planning to kick that woman out from his territory and makes sure that they will never come here again…alive.
"Kyoya," says he, "I am not done yet!" Dino yelps.
"Shall we intrude inside, boss?" Romario says.
"Y-Yeah." A sweat drops from his cheek. "This will take a long while."
(---)
"Oh no! Where is Haru now, Reborn?!" Tsuna yelps at the baby.
To Tsuna's dismay, the baby smirks like things go smoothly as it was. "Right now, she is at Hibari's apartment."
"EEEEIIII!!! H-HIBARI-SAN'S—WHY IS HARU IN HIBARI-SAN'S APARTMENT!! THAT MAKES THINGS WORSE!!!"
"Calm down, Tsuna, I meant to put Haru in Hibari's apartment."
"RE-REBORN! HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO HARU!! AND HIBARI-SAN OF ALL PEOPLE!!"
"Calm down, Tsuna."
"WHAT SHOULD I DO?!!" He scratches his head like an insane man would do. "H-HARU DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HIBARI-SAN MUCH!!
"Tsuna…" Reborn starts to grow impatient.
"SHE WILL BE BITTEN TO DEATH BY HIM ANYTIME NOW!!!"
"Tsuna!!"Anger arises on the baby as he kicks his student on the same spot he did from the last chapter.
Poor Tsuna, who is still recovering from his battle with Byakuran, got kicked twice in this morning.
"You are still a Dame-Tsuna," Reborn mutters. "How can you still act like one even after that scary battle?"
"B-But Reborn! Why does it have to be Hibari-san's?"
Reborn smirks. "I will give your permission to excuse yourself from your studies. Right now, we should head towards Hibari's place." He jumps off from his desk as he goes to the door as his head shifts to glance at Tsuna.
"And I will explain to you along the way."
(---)
"Ugh...Hahi, Haru feels like she can't take it anymore," Haru grumbles as she washes her face. She was completely a mess. What did she turn herself into anyway? She can't tell knowing well enough that the last night is still a blurry to Haru's memory and how she ended up in a dangerous man's place. 'If only Tsuna-san helps me of my parents' whereabouts, no! She shakes her head with disapproval. I don't want to be a burden to Tsuna-san! Haru should remain strong!'
With fists raises as a rehabilitation of her tough self she yelps, "Fight-O! I will go find my parents without any help from Tsuna-san!" But another thought comes to her as she frowns.
"But first I have to ask permission to leave to that scary porcupine man without getting bitten to death before Haru will depart," then she adds a sigh. "But he is really hard to approach. ~Hahi.."
"You." A sudden barging of the door along with the rude remark makes the girl "hahi" as a surprise attack from the behind.
"You n-nearly gave me a heart attack!" She yelps as a tear comes out from her eye.
"Get out," he said, dangerously, ignoring her squirming as he points at where the exit is. "Now."
"Hahi?" Haru didn't hear that right.
"Get out now," he repeats, impatiently as calmly as he can. He really needs a day-off as what that Bucking-Horse mentioned awhile ago.
"So he really wants me to leave unharmed?" Haru mutters as a large creepy grin appears in her mouth. "Kami-sama is really at my side now!" She says with comically tears streaming out from her eyes as her hands place on her chest.
"What are you babbling there about? Do I really have to say it thrice?"
"Hai!" Haru quickly reverts to the reality. She walks passes by Hibari as she glance to him from his behind and smiles. "Uhm, thanks for the accommodation, Hibari-san!" Before she can make another move, her feet make her stop as a familiar blonde foreigner comes into the scene.
"Di-Dino-san?" Haru's eyes widen.
"Good morning, Haru!" Dino gives her his most charming grin.
"So Dino-san is the one who called Hibari-san?"
"Yup! He is my first student after all!"
"Sugoi! Haru can't believe that you can handle Hibari-san like that!"
"Yeah," he mutters. "There are tough times that I really can't."
"Wow, you are very responsible, Dino-san! You are truly an ideal adult!" Haru compliments him as the latter can't help himself get embarrassed over such a compliment.
"I guess I should say…thanks?" He chuckles.
Their conversation somehow ended when they feel the strange dangerous atmosphere right behind them. Dino stops laughing and Haru's eyes widen as her boots starts to shake when the dark violet aura surrounds the whole scene. And they know where that dangerous aura comes from.
Hibari is pissed.
No.
Downright pissed.
How can these herbivores crowd themselves here in his house?
Of all places, it has to be HIS house.
"Chill out, Kyoya," Dino, who is used to Hibari's "I will definitely going to bite you to death" aura, tries to reassure his student. "I will be gone once I'm done explaining things to ya."
"You are already done stating the unreasonable, Bucking-Horse."
"It isn't unreasonable," Dino says, calmly as he shakes his head. "Rather, this kind of training will help you grow."
"No," he glances at Haru at his side. "This will make both of you grow."
"Hahi?" Haru still couldn't get it. "Why am I being involved here, Dino-san?"
"Oh, Haru? I thought for a second that you wish to become strong for the sake of the Vongola Family," he says.
"Bu-But…" her face softens as she lowers her head, unable to look at him in the eye. "Haru has some other business to deal with."
"Don't worry!" Dino grins. "My men will find your parents as farther as they can!"
"Hahi!" Haru jerks away from Dino as she yelps. "D-Dino-san, you knew?!"
Dino nods. "That's why you shouldn't overdo yourself by searching for them without any place to stay or money to use."
"So…you're suggesting that the herbivore should stay here?" Hibari grimaces as he raises a tonfa at Dino. "You don't have the privilege, Bucking-Horse."
"But it will be a good merit for you too, Kyoya," he grins. 'Man, dealing with a reluctant girl and a stubborn guy at the same time is harder than I thought!'
"Besides, you kept on wondering why Tsuna grows stronger and stronger at each moment, right?"
"Nani?" Hibari's brow lifts as his arm carrying a tonfa lowers.
'Jackpot.' He smirks. "In each battle Tsuna encounters, how can he, an ordinary student who is known as a No-Good Tsuna involved into interesting people such as Reborn and Byakuran? How can he progress so rapidly? How can he, despite nearly giving up when he knew he is at lost, begins to grow stronger whenever he makes a strange resolution? These thoughts came into your mind as if the battle at the Future baffles you so much."
Hibari can't understand how this idiot reads his mind perfectly. No, rather, he reads him like an open book, showing a hint of some sort of weakness.
Weakness?
Does he, Hibari Kyoya, really has one?
Pftt. How impulsive. Never has he, doubts his strength.
But still what he says is really true. He is currently in a state of a bad mood where he can't let that memory of that herbivore, defeating an interesting opponent right in front of him, away from his mind. Heck, none of Tsuna's battles aren't irrelevant to him; it just… baffles him this much.
"So…" he says after a short pause. "You presume that this girl will miraculously answer some of my questions for some strange reasons if I let her stay?"
"Yeah!" Dino grins.
Hibari has second thoughts about it then later says, nonchalantly, "Still not reasonable."
The next thing they knew was that Haru, Dino and Romario were, in a comical way, thrown out from his house.
….
"WHAT. JUST. HAPPENED?!" Dino bellows as he jerks up after that painful landing. He isn't sure how they ended up being thrown out for a second. Seriously, things are just getting smoothly but they suddenly got thrown out from there who-knows-how!
"It's alright, Dino-san."
"Huh?" He turns to her.
"Haru will only be a bothersome to Hibari-san. I can f-find a place on my own while looking for my parents!" She gives him a forced smile.
"I've told you, Haru," he sighs as he ruffles his blonde hair. "The Cavallone family will handle that, really."
"B-but-!"
"If Haru doesn't want to, we can't just force her to." That voice.
The two turn to see the hitman baby appears at Romario's right side.
"Reborn!" They chorus.
"Ciaossu."
"R-Reborn," an exhausting voice comes from behind the baby as he appears with green leaves all over him. "Why did you abandon me when I was chased by a dog?!" Haru's eyes widen when Tsuna catches her staring at him.
"Haru…"
He knows. She can tell. He knows without a doubt!
"T-Tsuna-san…"
End Chapter Two
Phew. This is a tough one! A conversation between Hibari, Dino and Haru is really difficult to manage! So I always re-do some scenes and whatsoever. Sigh, and here I thought that Hibari and Haru will begin their special training at Chapter Three but I quickly changed my mind when I've realized that Hibari is the type who doesn't easily agree on terms. (Unless if it is his) Oh well. Thank you guys! I am glad that you appreciated my story! And especially for those who reviewed, favorite/story alert it! It really made my day!!
By the way, this chapter might be very confusing as Dino didn't really state everything at all. Actually, it will be up to you guys if you notice the "real" reason as the training and the progress starts. Oh well, we'll see about that. Can't wait for it!!! Tee-hee!! Again, please review, it will make my day, ya know!
