Chapter 4: Meet the Boss

Getting ready, I sighed and sat down on my bed.

'Damn.'

-Flashback-

I can hear the door clicked shut behind me.

I stood where I am silently staring at the pair of red eyes. They stared right back at me with a more piercing manner. I guess that's the Boss. Xanxus. In the dim-lighted room, I could also see another person beside the Boss-(at least,that's what I assumed he would be), and I would bet that it was the annoying 'Voi' guy as I looked at the long silver hair. Squalo,was it?

"Oi, Who's trash is this?" Xanxus said in an irritated manner. Judging from his expression,he seemed irked. Very irked.

"VOIIII! She's the new trash who's joining in." Squalo spoke with that loud voice of his. Seriously. Was there even a need to shout when the boss was right beside him?

So annoy-Wait. What was it? Trash? My eye twitched and I resisted the urge to scowl.

"Tch. We don't need another trash. Go home." My attention drifted back to the boss when he spoke.

That minute,I almost jumped up and down in joy. But an order is an order.

I stood straight and looked right back at Xanxus.

"The Vongola Tenth heard that you need a new member. So he sent me."

His eyebrows pulled together,looking at me.

"We want a trash that is strong. Not some stupid girl who can't fight."

Squalo gave a haughty laugh.

Well that was insulting. I scowled.

"Excuse me, I'm not a 'stupid girl' and I CAN fight. The Vongola Tenth himself sent me. I don't even want to stay here."

"Ooohhh...This girl's got balls. Oh wait, she doesn't have one. HAHAHA" Squalo laughed and a glass of wine was thrown at his head.

His face flamed up. And he turned sharply at the boss. "VOII! What was that for?"

"Shut up trash." Xanxus gave him a glare and Squalo tch-ed.

He turned his attention back at me and gave me a smirk. "So you can fight?"

Seeing him smirk like that, was unnerving. And I know I was to be up for some real challenge.

"O-of course!" Damn. Why did I have to stutter.

His blank face came back. "Then why don't we make a deal, trash. If you win fighting one of the Varia, I will take you in. You got that?"

I frowned and nodded. Well,at least I could prove them.

"Deal".

-End of flashback-

Is he going to let me choose who I'm going to fight? Or do I have the privilege to choose? If I could choose.. I frowned and thought deeply.

Whether I choose the strongest or the weakest, I can pretend to be weak and get out of here.

And there's no way I would do that since, what did he say? 'Stupid girl who can't fight'. Yeah.

So..the strongest would be a no-no. The weakest..if I were to win, they will say it is because the guy's the weakest and that I had no chance in fighting the others. But I could still earn some respect,right? And prove that I could fight.

So,the weakest I guess.. I will ask Fran for information.

This will work only if I have the privilege to choose.

Someone knocked on my door and I looked at the door,startled.

"Ami-senpai. Are you ready?" Fran's voice was heard behind the door.

"Ah! wait a second! Almost ready Fran!"

I took and wore my long jacket which covered my body until my knees. Slapping some invisible dirt off, I went and opened the door.

And again, silence ensued between us as we walked.

"Ami-senpai." Fran's voice startled me. I had not expected him to talk.

"Yeah?"

"What kind of person do you want to fight?"

I blinked. "A-ah..Uhh..About that.."

Fran looked at me at the corner of his eyes as I tugged my jacket.

"Do you want to know who the weakest one is?"

My eyes widened and I turned my head at him sharply."Who?" I asked trying not to sound excited.

"The one with the blond hair and a tiara. He's the weakest."

I blinked as I took the information in. The 'Shishi' guy?

I smiled gratefully at Fran."Thanks Fran"

"We're here." I turned and we stood in front of a huge door.

He opened the door and we went inside.

4 bored-looking boys were lined up. Fran went towards them and joined the line. That made 5.

I saw Xanxus in a position he was in earlier. On that royal chair,head rested on a fist.

"Hurry up and choose one, trash."

Oh. So I could choose.

"Uh... . I'm choosing."

I looked at them one by one,searching for the Shishishi guy. He was there.

He does look normal. In a way..

I pointed at him with my index finger.

"Him." I hope I made the good choice.

I can almost see Fran smirk at the corner of my eyes.

..What.

"D-did she just choose Bel?" Lussuria stuttered. He looked terrified.

"She did." The guy with the hair almost similar to Reborn said.

"VOI! She's dead!" Squalo said obnoxiously and laughed.

My eyes widened and I turned my head to Fran. He waved nonchalantly and I scowled.

Damn.

"Ushishishi~ Are you serious?" I turned my head to 'Bel' and regained my composure.

"I-I am!" Damn. I stuttered.

"Start already!" The Boss said impatiently.

While the other went to stand at the corner, Lussuria passed by me and said a quick little 'good luck darling'.

Bel looked at me,wide grin plastered on his face.

I frowned and turned to him fully.

"We're gonna have some fun, princess." He licked his lips and took a knife out.

"START!"

Review? :3
