Sup? The next two chapters will pretty much include skimmed events up until the start of the series, so there will be a lot of time skips. Then chapter five will truly start the story.

Chapter 3: Unfortunate Scarring

I do not know how long I stayed in the hospital, but it felt like months before my new mother and I were released. Whilst I was in that hell hole I had learned some rather interesting things and had been scarred for life: twice. Not only was I conscious with a full grown mind through my birth, but I also had to breast feed with the mind of a 24-year old homosexual female. And I have to say sucking on the breast of a very attractive woman who's supposed to be my mother is extremely disturbing.

On a much less terrifying note I had learned that I had been reincarnated as none other than Sasagawa Kyoko. I knew this because of four bits of information. First is that Martin had told me I would be reborn in the world of Katekyo Hitman Reborn. The second bit is that I was named Kyoko, third is my mother's name is Sasagawa Haruhi making my name Sasagawa Kyoko and lastly we were visited by none other than Ryohei Sasagawa who I was told was my brother. Interestingly enough it appeared he had already become obsessed with the word 'EXTREME'- caps and all.

I honestly didn't know how to take my new identity. Was I Kyoko or Shouta? Both? I don't know, but i decided to dwell upon that confusing topic later.

When we got home my mother sat on a comfortable looking brown couch holding me in her arms. The house was nice and simple with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. Having lived in Nebraska since middle school I found that it was kind of hard to get used to there being no basement.

When my mother sat down I almost instantly found Ryohei in my face. "Extreme hello Kyoko!" he greeted me loudly in his high itched one-year old voice. I had to admit it was kind of cute, but I had never been a fan of loud noises, so I opened my mouth to tell him to tone it down, forgetting I was only an infant. Much to my annoyance all that came out was an odd gurgling sound which my mother seemed to find incredibly cute. She squealed and gave me a light hug gushing at how adorable I apparently was. Note to self: learn how to talk ASAP.

It took three months of pronouncing letters and various parts of words at night and within my gurgles during the day until I was finally able to say a word. I was playing with Ryohei and had built a small pyramid of three square blocks and I'm not embarrassed to admit that I was very proud of myself, because it took a while until I was able to gain control of basic motor skills.

I was admiring my work when Ryohei made on odd flailing motion after tripping over a block. Much to my horror his arm hit my small structure making it fall. I glared at my new brother and began to yell at him, but I had been thinking in English instead of Japanese as I was not used to the language being a constant in my life.

"Oi! Dude what teh fuhs?" I said unable to pronounce the harder syllables in the words.

The room went silent after I spoke. It was hard to resist facepalming as I realized my mistake. Both of my parents could speak fluent English so at least one of them would recognize what I said as English. Hell one of them might even recognize 'Dude'. I slowly looked up at them worried as to what their reactions would be. My mother was alternating between staring at me in shock and glaring at my father.

"Taka?" she asked her voice dangerously calm. I held my breath in anticipation and slight confusion. How would she react to a three month old, Japanese child speaking English? And why was she angry?

My father, Taka, gulped as my angry mother adressed him. "Y-yes Haruhi?"

"Why exactly did my dear, sweet, innocent Kyo-chan try to swear? In English for that matter. I know for a fact I haven't spoken English at all during my maternity leave."

"I-I don't know. Maybe it was in the book she took off the shelf?" he said sounding quite scared of his wife's wrath. I momentarily wondered as to when I took an English book and tried to read it, but then I remembered the Huckleberry Finn book I found that was on one of the many bookshelves located around the house.

"Taka she's three months old! She can't read."

"B-but I haven't spoken English around her!" he cried trying to defend himself. I could almost see the anime tears of fear rolling down his face. "Besides, shouldn't we focus on the good in this situation? She said her first word, her first sentence even!"

I gave a sigh of relief. My English didn't make them suspicious. Deciding to show father mercy I decided to distract mom. I widened my eyes innocently and stared at her, "Mommy."

It worked quiet well. Her eyes went wide and then after a moment of shocked silence she squealed, picked me up and hugged me.

"Did you hear that? She said mommy! Mommy! Oh I'm so proud of you Kyo-chan. You're a genius."

I looked at my dad and gave him thumbs up and a grin. It wasn't long after that when I began to speak pretty good Japanese and decent English, although my parents weren't aware of the full extint of my English knowledge. I even joined in on my mother teaching Ryohei to talk correctly- learning of course. If I were to teach it would be much too suspicious.

Martin's Guide to Death and Rebirth

Hello. I am the angel Martin. I am here to explain to you the finer details of the life, death and rebirth system. It'll be understandable by even fools like you.

I'll start with the basics- death and the assigned date and rebirth. As you should know everyone dies at some point (if you didn't know that then fools on your level of stupidity won't understand even my simple explanation). When a person dies and is reborn or a new soul is placed into the system they are assigned a date of death and a place and person of rebirth that corresponds to the time of death. If either dates are off then the soul won't be able to be reincarnated normally. The soul must also be compatible with the new body making it rather hard to assign these things- which is why we have angels constantly checking and re-checking on people. We have at least one for every person. If a death or rebirth is off and is not properly fixed within a 24-hour period then that soul will be lost forever, either in the afterlife or in the world were whatever went wrong happened.
