Monster

-chapter 1-

You were never one to think twice about your choices. Even if your life depended on it. And people should know this. It was obviously crystal clear when you didn't hesitate to jump in front of the truck pushing some cow-print wearing kid out of the way.

When you woke up, you were in somewhere new and unfamiliar. You heard something shift to the side, and you turned your head to see a man with a fedora and a green lizard resting on the hat's brim. His never-ending ebony orbs stared back at you as yours stared at him.

"Ciaossu," he spoke, his deep voice slicing the air, and a smirk slithered onto his face as you screamed and tumbled out of the bed in a flurry of blankets and pillows.

He chuckled.

"W-where am I?" You spluttered your hair unruly and tangled. "A-and who are you?"

"Nice questions you have, but first, I think I'd rather you explain who are you first," he replied, and you glared at him.

"I thought all men with fedoras and suits are supposed to be gentlemen," you mumbled under your breath, and somehow he had caught it.

His smirk grew as he chuckled again," Ladies first. Gentlemen always have good manners."

You frowned," Honda Tsuneko. Now, what's yours, gentleman." Another rumble from his chest made you notice he was chuckling from your emphasis on the last word.

"My name is Reborn, the world's greatest hitman. And as to where you are at, you're at Dame-Tsuna's house."
