CHAPTER FOUR:- THE VARIA

She stood in front of the large mansion feeling rather out of place and awkward due to her odd time of arrival. She felt incredibly nervous about meeting these people even though in a strange way they worked under Tsuna. Inari had never had the opportunity to meet any of them in person though from what she had heard of them through Reborn, they were known by reputation by many. And from that rather vicious reputation stemmed the fear that people showed them.

'I wonder what weird and wonderful things await me in this dreary place.' She thought to herself as she stood observing the outside of her new home.

She was snapped from her thoughts when the front door jerked open and she found herself greeted by the scowling features of a man with white hair similar to her own. She could tell he had been sleeping just by looking at his rumpled clothing.

"VOOOI what do you want here woman?" he half grumbled, half yelled causing her to flinch back slightly.

"I'm Miss Kurosaki. I was called in connection to the advertisement for the position of the Head maid which was available. I got lost in trying to locate the premises hence the odd hour of my arrival, I was due earlier in the evening." she made sure to put on her most sincere façade as she stood feeling like an insignificant bug under the man's intense steely glare.

'He scowls as much as Hibari does.' she pondered while waiting for a reply from the man. Only to jump in fright when it was rudely slammed closed in her face. "Well seems this is a rather colorful bunch I'll be working with." she grumbled, sighing as she sat down on the cold stone steps and waited for someone more polite to let her in.

The sun was slowly starting to rise when the door opened again snapping her from her daze she was in. "Oh honey don't tell me you were sitting out here all alone all night?" gushed a strange voice from behind her.

She turned to find the strangest sight before her ever. Blinking a few times she cleared her throat and nodded. "I'm Miss Kurosaki, your new head maid. I arrived here last night and some…. Well… Gentlemen… opened the door with long white hair then slammed it in my face and left me out here." She half choked as she said the word gentlemen as it wasn't exactly the most perfect term to suit the man who had treated her so rudely.

"Oh darling come inside, I'll take you straight to our boss, his been expecting you. My name is Lussaria, I'll introduce you to everyone, they all in the study with the boss at the moment."

"It is a pleasure to meet you Lussaria." She smiled as the rather feminine male helped her carry her belongings to her new room before dragging her to the study to meet her new boss.

"Xanxus-sama I have your new maid with me." Lussaria cooed in an awkward honey glazed tone.

"Show yourself trash." Was the simple order that she received and without hesitation she slipped out from behind the male to bow down before her new master who eyed her from the rim of his half empty whiskey glass. "Trash, make sure she knows what is expected of her and make sure she knows where to find everything."

Lussaria nodded and half bowed before grabbing her gently by the arms and pulling her along. "So that is Boss-sama, that man over there on the couch is my darling Belphegor, but if you want to stay alive call him prince. The white haired man you know from last night is Squalo, he gets very loud and is easy to piss off." Lussaria chuckled.

"Jerk." Was the simple word that slipped from her lips as she shot the loud man a withering glare.

Lussaria chuckled again, "That's right honey he is a jerk, if I can give any piece of advice it would be, stop being so polite, only be that way to boss-sama he is the one who will keep you alive, as long as he says they can't harm you, they won't try and kill you. Okay so the baby is Mammon and the man in the frog hat is Fran."

Inari nodded with a smile on her face as she followed Lussaria around the mansion.

"So this is the Varia." She stated to herself as she kept looking around.
