Ciel hummed a small tune as she walked up the stairs of Vongola. Officially now a member of the family for two days Ciel was going to the meeting she promise to attend. Reaching behind her Ciel's fingers grazed her back as she wondered what the Vongola Crest looked like but she was too afraid to find out. Coming to the top of the stairs brown eyes connected with red ones down the hall. Walking towards each other G. stopped in front of the meeting room door. "What are you doing here?"

"Primo wished for me to attend the meeting today. Do you have a problem with it?" She asked as he opened the door.

"None." He said closing the door in her face. Huffing in frustration Ciel open the door again before closing it rather roughly.

Giotto looked up from a file only to see the anger between the new member and Storm guardian. Placing the paper down he leaned back to watch in amusement. "How very gentlemanly of you to slam the door in my face rather than letting me in the room first, I see why you work here."

"I closed it not slam. Primo did you really ask her to come today or did she seduce you."

Giotto watched as the woman's cheeks flared. "Unlike you Primo is very kind and yes he did ask me to come seeing as your barbaric actions most likely frighten him."

"Don't put words in Primo's mouth."

A gentle laugh filled the room as a hand appeared on Ciel's shoulder. "Now G. you usually get along with most women why do you not like Ciel." Looking behind her a smile appeared on the white haired woman's face.

"Ugetsu how nice of you to join us, you will keep your promise today will you not?"

The Rain guardian smiled at her gently."It would be a shame if I didn't."

The boss blinked owlishly at the two. "I was not aware you two had planned to do something today." Looking between Ciel and Ugetsu, Giotto stared at them questionably with wonder at their smiles. "Nevertheless we need another chair to seat out guest." Giotto said searching around the room for a chair. Spotting one across the room he stood from his seat but stopped at G.'s comment.

"She can stand Primo."

The woman gave G. a look before walking over to Vongola and sitting on the right arm of his chair. "I wish to stay here for the time being Boss, I hope you don't mind." Laughing in amusement at his friends face Giotto agreed sitting down wrapping an arm loosing around the woman's hips to make sure she wouldn't fall. Knuckles and Lampo walked in, the priest rather energetic this morning, and Lampo, sluggish as always.

"I see we are just missing the other two. Alaude must have had something important to do as he is usually the first or second one to arrive." Giotto announced fixing the papers in front of him. Ciel and G. glared at each other as Knuckles and Ugetsu got into a vivid conversation about recent events. Lampo automatically sat down and fell asleep. The door opened once again and closed as the last two remaining members arrived. The grandfather clock rung in the corner of the room filling the air with its chime while signaling the start of the meeting. Everyone went silent as they sat in their seats awaiting the boss to start the meeting.

Ciel looked at the wheat blond haired man, who had just walked in, sitting at the left end of the table. He looked to be the serious kind as he leaned back in his chair arms crossed and eyes closed. Clad in a trench coat Ciel had a feeling he was not one to mess with. On the other hand the bluenette gave off a sense of danger. Hair slightly messed up from a previous altercation not much earlier, she assumed, he wore a type of military uniform and didn't seemed at all faze by her presence. Pushing some hair behind her ear Ciel looked over Giotto's shoulder to read the papers he was talking thoroughly about.

Giotto smiled as he looked out the corner of his eye to see white hair falling over his shoulder as the woman beside him leaned closer. "As of the-" A knock cut the Boss off as everyone looked at the door. "Come in." Giotto said calmly placing the papers back on the table leaning back in his chair fingers laced in his lap. The door opened and a fairly pretty woman stepped in slowly nervous and obviously shy. Not a member of Vongola as she didn't wear the maid uniform, not that there were many, she wore a small tight tattered brown dress that went down perhaps mid-thigh. Shocked at her appearance Ciel smoothed out her own dress.

"How may I help you mio cara." The orange eyed man asked.

"I-I just wanted to t-tell Daemon that I-I was leaving." She mumbled.

Unsure which of the two men were Daemon Ciel looked at both of them. The bluenette smirked at the woman slightly turning to her. "I will message when I have the need for you again. If you want your money then it will be delivered when I have the time to get it ready." The two women were stunned at the man's words. The woman, now titled as a prostitute in front of everyone, excused herself and closed the door quickly.

Ugetsu sighed. "There were much better ways to deal with that Daemon."

Daemon opened his mouth to speak but was quickly cut off by the other woman. "You demonio." Ciel hissed out standing up from her sitting position. "How dare you embarrass that woman in front of your colleagues when all she had wanted was to advise your sorry life that she was leaving? I have every right and every fiber of my being to come over and slap some sense into you." Walking passed everyone and towards the door Ciel was stopped by a large snake guarding the exit.

"Daemon." Knuckles said softly trying to calm down the mist guardian who stood up from his seat.

"Oya who do you think you're talking to."

Spinning around on her heel brown eyes flared in anger. "I am talking to a man who obviously needs to be taught some manners on how to treat a lady!" She shouted. "It seems your mother had forgotten that lesson." Turning back around Ciel flung her hair behind her hitting the man in the face and rushed out of the room in anger. The Illusionist went to hurry after her but one look at the Boss stopped him.

Dying Will Flames covered his forehead as his eyes were a shade darker than usual. Looking at Daemon with a warning look, the man sat down anger seeping out of him.


The white haired woman watched as the carriage strode away carrying the woman she had come to comfort. Giving a sigh of exhaustion Ciel turned around only to run into someone. A light chuckle rung through the air as she looked up to gaze into orange eyes. "Boss what are you doing here."

"I came to make sure you and our other guest were okay. But it seems you have everything under control."

"Of course I would."

A smile spread across Giotto's face as the two started walking the grounds. "I apologize the meeting didn't go as planned." He said watching her carefully walk across the grass with her bare feet.

"I was unaware your meetings were planned from start to finish."

He chuckled again. "Yes well sometimes I like to have less unpredictable instances such as the one we just witnessed. I understand you are angry with Daemon."

Ciel stopped and turned to stand in front of her Boss. "I understand that my actions may not have been the most polite, and I apologize fully, but what he did to that woman is not forgivable." Pushing some hair behind her ear Ciel looked at the path the woman just went down. "I believe that men should respect and cherish women. They give birth, raise the children, take care of the husbands, the house, and support the family from the background. When a man can show me he can do the same as a woman then I'll rethink my ways."

"I see we have a feminist."

"I may be one but for a good reason. A woman can do anything a man can and they should be treated as such."

Giotto hummed taking the woman's hand in his. Bringing it to his face he placed it to his cheek. "I see we have lot of new views coming from you."

"Shall we go over them over tea Mr. Daemon?"

Giotto froze before a smirk covered his face. "Nufufu~ how'd you know?"

The illusion of the blond man disappeared as was replaced by the bluenette. "Primo would have kissed my hand not bring it to his face."

A chuckled sounded not too far away and the two turned to see the actual Primo and G. walked towards him. "I see you saw through the illusion Ciel."

"Is that what it was?"

Dropping her hand back to her side Giotto looked at Daemon with a smile then back at her. "Ciel I would like you to meet my Mist Guardian, Daemon Spade. He specializes in Illusions."

"And illusions are..." G. rolled his eyes stuffing his hands in his pockets.

Daemon laughed again grabbing her chin and forcing her to look him in the eye. "Illusions attack the senses to confuse the opponent. They are used to make the enemy feel, see, hear, or smell things that aren't really there. A first class illusionist like myself can use them to actually kill. As a guardian of Primo it is my job to create something out of nothing and nothing from something."

Giotto cleared his throat causing his guardian to pull away. "Daemon is also the one who sealed up your dying will flame."

Brown eyes locked with Blue eyes. "It seems we really will be having a conversation over tea, that is if you would like to join me."

Bowing slightly Daemon laughed. "Nufufu~ I would be honored."


Giotto watched out his office window his guardian and new member talk over tea. G. stood by his desk watching his boss. A knock came to the door. Turning from the window Giotto called out "come in." The door opened and Ugetsu stepped in with a smile.

"Are you worried Primo?"

Giotto smiled walking over and sitting on one of the couches. Ugetsu sat in front of him and G. leaned against the desk. "Daemon isn't the nicest person towards women."

"He never has been." G. commented.

Ugetsu shook his head. "Daemon was very kind towards Elena before she died."

G.'s head snaps over to him. "They were lovers; of course he was nice to her."

"They were?"

Giotto smiled as G. started to scold the rain guardian for being so oblivious. A few minutes passed before Knuckled walked into the room wondering what the fuss was about. Getting up off the couch the blond looked back over the two talking over tea. "Primo?"

"Hm..." Turning he saw the three guardians looking at him in worry.

"You are worried." Ugetsu stated.

"I suppose. Ciel had sparked Daemon's interest when she yelled at him. It's almost as bad as becoming a target for Alaude."

Knuckles shook his head. "Alaude is extremely worse." Giotto smiled in amusement.


Giotto walked down the hallway as the moonlight shone through the windows. A candle in one hand the Boss was heading towards his room for a much needed rest. Seeing light seep through the crack door of a room Giotto headed over pushing the door open a smudge. His eyes softened as he knocked on the door. "Ciel it's time for bed."

The white haired woman continued to sit on the window sill looking out into the night. "I was unaware that Vongola had a curfew for members."

"We don't but I don't want you tired in the morning. May I come in?" Nodding her head Giotto closed the door behind him setting his candle on her bed side table beside her own. Stepping beside her Primo saw her watching the night guards.

"They must be cold."

"They'll go in to get a jacket if the weather gets to them."

Fixing her dress Ciel looked at the Italian man. "Do you usually get attacked at night?"

Taking her hand in his he kissed her knuckles softly. "No...the guards are only there for precaution."

"Will we be attacked one day?"

"I cannot say." Giotto said turning to look at the guards talking to each other. "Are you concerned for your safety?"

The harpist shook her head in disagreement. "I'm sure if I was in trouble you'd come save me Primo. Or as Daemon said my flames may return."

Giotto took his other hand and pushed some hair behind her ear. "Well as much as I know you want your flames back to play your harp, putting you in danger is the last thing I want to do."

"I know. Daemon has asked me to go on a mission with him tomorrow. I accepted without your consent, forgive me."

Kissing her hand again he let go. "Inform me next time and I may be more lenient on letting you go. I do not wish for you to go but you have already accepted and I cannot freely pull you out of a mission you agreed to even if I am boss." Sighing in frustration Giotto picked up his candle. "Go to bed soon Ciel. You have a long day ahead of you."

"Of course Primo."


Thank you all for reading it makes my day so much brighter.

Sorry if it's rushed I didn't mean to.
