I guess we did better on the reviews this last chapter… but there still isn't nearly enough! Oh, I hope you like the last chapter; I totally love Nekko right now.

I'll be experimenting with point of view and flash backs in this chapter. Tell me what you think.

Nikko

I crouched behind Nekko yet again. It was beginning to feel somewhat repetitive. Déjà vu. Of course, as usual, it was my fault.

*Flashback*

Nekko dragged me along behind her… not that I needed dragging, but she walked a little faster than I could keep up with. Her eyes flicked around frantically. I knew without having to ask; she was looking for somewhere to hide.

She brightened up immediately when she saw the door to the girl's restroom. She couldn't possibly…? To my dismay she made a beeline to the door. When we were a mere 3 feet away, I locked my legs. She was now literally dragging me now. She looked back surprised at the sudden dead wait. She looked confused.

I shot her a pointed glance. It was amazing how dense she could sometimes. Her face fell when she realized that I was boy and there was no way I was going to go in the girl's restroom.

She released my hand and slouched down the wall, hiding her face in her hands. I sat down next to her, just as miserable. If I hadn't been a boy, or if I was older and could have stayed home, or if I hadn't kicked that stupid jerk in the first place Nekko wouldn't be in this situation. I thought hard of a way we could make it better. Suddenly my face was lit with the light of a brilliant idea.

"Excuse me," I said to a nearby girl. "Do you know a place where we could hide from a person named Hibari?" Nekko's head snapped up and I saw tears in her eyes. Her eyes, despite being watery, were furious. I pretended not to notice and focused on the girl. She had frozen up at the mention of the villain's name.

Her companion paused as well. They looked at each other and whispered frantically, occasionally shooting us a terrified glance. All the while Nekko's eyes were shooting daggers at me. I noticed another group of girls nearby who had overheard our question. It was them who answered.

"The reception room would be an excellent place to hide," one of them purred. There was something odd about her eyes, but I dismissed it as a trick of the light. Nekko remained silent. "I'd even be willing to show you the way." I accepted her offer and thanked her.

I pulled Nekko to her feet, (Dang she was heavy.) and realized it would be my turn to drag her. It wasn't long before we were sitting on the comfortable couches in the reception room. Nekko was quiet. And I wondered what she was thinking. I lay down and allowed myself to fall asleep. We would be here for a while after all.

I was woken up by a loud crash. My eyes snapped open to find Nekko in her too familiar defensive pose in front of me, Hibari standing in the broken down doorway. We had been tricked, and it was my fault. Again.

*End of flashback *

"Why are you in my office?" the sadistic scoundrel sneered. There was nowhere to run this time. Once again it was like a slap in the face to see Nekko so scared, but still standing because of me. This time was going to be worse. I could already tell by the determined stance of the so-called skylark.

"S-stop," I stuttered. Both Nekko and Hibari tuned toward me. Nekko's expression one of fear, fear for me. Hibari's one of contempt. "It's my fault we're in here… so-so please leave Nekko alone!"

Nekko sighed. Hibari looked away. "He's here because I kicked and hit him, not because we're in his 'office'." Suddenly she was calm, and I knew why. Hibari had shown no interest in me. There was no need for her to fight. She would get killed.

It was my fault.

Hibari

Herbivores crowding together. Could there be a more repulsive sight? I pulled out my tonfas and approached them. I felt a vague surprise as I recognized the herbivores from the zoo, and this morning… it didn't really matter… they would all be bitten to death in a few minutes.

I warned them, and then prepared to attack. One of the herbivores, the girl that had made an attempt, albeit a futile feeble one, to fight me, approached. She screamed at me, upset that I had bitten her and her brother to death. No one had ever yelled at me before… I was contemplating this fact when, much to my frustration, she lashed out at me with her foot, and I didn't dodge. The sole of her shoe bit into my flesh and I watched the blood trickle out of me, the first time in years. As much as I hated to admit this fact, this girl had surprised me, and I was distracted. I felt a fist pound into my head. I felt an immense irritation towards this herbivore, but it was in sync with my desire to fight and her obvious offer.

I looked up ready for battle but was, yet again, surprised by the herbivore's actions. She had made it clear she wanted to fight, yet now she was nearly sprinting in the opposite direction. She grabbed the hand of what I supposed was her younger brother. She was going to fight with him? She was indeed an herbivore to crowd with him.

No... She was heading for the stairs. She was running away. Stupid coward. It wasn't until then that I realized my head was throbbing. I needed a nap, but first I would find that herbivore. I turned to the group of herbivore's who were gawking at me. They would have to go first.

I made my way to the reception room, reserved for the disciplinary committee; I used it as my office. Although I tried to ignore it, I was undeniably limping. My leg hurt, but wasn't serious enough to get in the way of my biting to death all the herbivores who so much as glanced at me.

At last, I reached the sanctuary of the room. I stretched out my hand and turned the knob. It stuck. It… was locked? I shook it roughly. It only locked from the inside. That meant someone wanted to be bitten to death so badly they locked me out of my own room. I knocked down the door without another second's hesitation. Standing on the other side of the door was the very herbivore I wanted to see, standing in front of that weakling sibling of hers. She wouldn't get away this time.

I snarled a question at her. The weakling herbivore answered in her stead. He was apologizing, asking me to let them walk free. That wasn't going to happen. I dismissed his presence immediately. At that moment my opponent's tense shoulder's relaxed, she explained to the child the reason we were going to fight. I examined her. She seemed… happy. Good, I thought, she wants to fight too.

Nekko

I was about to die. I was terrified. But I was, in a way, at peace.

There was no way I could hold my own in a fight with Hibari. I would last less than a minute before he pulverized me. Then, he would leave. He obviously wasn't into fighting little kids. He would just leave Nikko alone. Unless Nikko was stupid enough to provoke him, but I had faith my little bro was wiser than that. I stared at the one who would annihilate me, waiting. He lunged.

I was quick to block. We were too close to Nikko. I spun around, leading Hibari away from the 8 year old on the couch. He swung at me with his tonfa, I ducked under. He lashed out with his other. I took the blow with an outstretched hand. I fell back onto my butt. He lashed out with his foot. I rolled out of the way. He waited. I shoved myself up, my knees already buckling, threatening to give way. It was a dance. Attack, dodge. If you missed a step, you were knocked out cold

"Stop," I heard Nikko cry again. Damn it. Couldn't he just stay out of it? I immediately threw a punch at Hibari in an attempt to distract him. He blocked, as expected. He smirked, and then did something completely unexpected. He took long strides towards my dear innocent brother. Shit. I paused, shocked. It was a mere second later, however, that I was ferociously attacking the skylark to slow his advance. The dance continued, now we share the parts.

It went on for hours, or minutes. Time was nonexistent. All I felt was the desperate desire to protect Nikko battling with the screams of agony my body was sending. I was slowing Hibari down, but he was still making an advance. Why the hell was he going after Nikko!?

I was about to go down, I took a step forward and jabbed out at a blind spot in a last effort. He blocked, and my body gave out. I collapsed. I waited to feel myself make contact with the floor, but it never came. I fuzzily opened my eyes. Hibari, the very person who had beaten me relentlessly, had dropped his tonfas and caught me.

Hibari

I looked at the small defeated creature in my arms. She gazed up at me weakly.

"L-leave Nikko alone…" she gasped before passing out. She was weak, but not nearly as weak as the other herbivores. She had lasted 9 minutes and 17 seconds against me, and then lost because her body gave out, not because I had beaten her down. That was the best anyone at this school had ever done in a fight against me.

She hadn't done it by herself though. Without the weakling herbivore to protect she was useless. I gazed at her in my arms wondering how she had gotten there. I didn't remember ordering my arms to catch her. Even now, I felt my body move of its own accord, a benefit on her account.

It shoved the small herbivore whom she cherished so much onto the floor. It placed her gingerly on the couch, careful not to wake her. It lifted up lifted up the small herbivore it had just abused and placed it on a chair. It sat down across from it. All the while my mind was blank, but full. What was the matter with me? Now I stared at the herbivore and began questioning it.

"What is your name herbivore?"

"K-Konowa Nikko." Silence. "Who are you?"

"Hibari Kyoya, Head of the disciplinary committee. What is your relation to the girl on the couch?" At this the boy's eyes lit up. They were certainly livelier…but they were furious.

"That is Konowa Nekko, my older sister. Why did you do that to her?!" No answer. The boy's demeanor grew angrier and more hateful the longer the silence went on. Finally he stood, shot me a glare, and strode meaningfully to his sister. He began to lift her arm and I recognized immediately what he was attempting. I doubted he would succeed though; she was much heavier than he could carry.

I remained seated. I had no obligation to help these herbivores. I closed my eyes. I sat, trying to calm myself. This was interrupted, however, when there was a loud thunk on the carpet. My eyes snapped open. The small herbivore's face was pale, his eyes wide. The girl, Nekko, was equally white, a furrow of discomfort between her eyes.

I didn't want to do this. I shouldn't have to do this. I did it anyway. I got up and picked up the girl in my arms, not nearly as gentle as I had been earlier. I took long strides towards the door, relieved and upset when I found Kusakabe walking through it.

His eyes widened when he saw me. I dumped the unconscious girl into his un-expecting arms. He looked from me too her, then back at me.

"Take her to the nurse." I saw the boy lurking near me. "Him to." Kusakabe scurried out of the room, taking the herbivores where they were no longer in my line of sight. I wouldn't know what happened. I was glad. I didn't want to know… so why did I feel uneasy?

AHHHH!! so bad. Hibari is so ooc. I apologize for the suckiness. I hate this chapter. Plz review too agree with me. this chapter sucks asian pants!! .

P.S. I do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn or any of the characters. I only own Nikko and Nekko.(Go ahead and make gun of my uncreativity..)
