Target 004: Kyoko and Hana
Tsuru dashed around her house fishing for her necessities, it was all Kyoya's fault for challenging her to a stupid spar on the night before her first day of middle school. Yes, Kyoya better be watching out because she was going to murder him in cold blood, cousin or not.
Somehow she had also managed to nab a male's uniform because she had complained to her mother that the girl's skirt was too high, seriously though, if you just bent down your underwear was flashed to the entire world!
Once she was finally out of the house she immediately checked her orange watch. 7:50am, maybe she'd make in time.
She rounded a corner and nearly crashed into a middle aged man wearing a grey kimono, she fell backwards and her stuff was scattered on the ground. The brunette apologized and hastily rearranged her bag, she then took off for school once more.
She saw the entrance gate of her school just starting to close, quickly calculating the energy and time needed to beat the gates, Tsuru pushed forward hard onto the ground and had barely made it inside.
"Wao. Little Lion, you were nearly late." A sharp tone caught Tsuru's ears, she turned to her cousin and spat out in annoyance.
"Why thank you!" She hissed sarcastically, "I sure love being up until 2am because some spoilt brat couldn't wait to get his ass kicked!" Tsuru then pivoted and left to find her classroom.
Tsuru had officially decided that school life does not get better as you get older, rather the hurtful actions and words that students-and even teachers-say only gets harsher.
So far she had been called stupid, useless, clumsy, liar and even transgender, was it because she looked like both male and female in her boy's uniform? Well her short fluffy hair did not help the situation.
She wondered if her whole school life would be like this, full of judgemental people who speak with hateful masks of lies and deceptions, after all it was the nature of the human kind. Perhaps they would be better off listening to their primal instincts.
Live like the Hibari family where the strongest rules, like an Alpha, and the weak were protected or left to fend for themselves in the vast wilderness. Such was the rule of the wild, but these things would never happen because humans were too scared to live their lives like animals, barbarians they would say.
Suddenly the 12 year old girl was interrupted as a piece of chalk came flying at her head. She was very tempted to dodge or catch it but deception is an assassin's best weapon, or was it a ninja's?
The chalk hit her head and using her subpar acting skills, Tsuru clutched her head and pretended to moan in pain.
"Dozing off already?" Tsuru turned to attention to the teacher, an ugly middle aged man who wore a cheap looking suit, most likely trying to make himself look superior to everyone else. "It is only the first day…" He checked the roll, "Sawada, I expect you to listen."
The teacher, Dohachiro Nezu, she read off the board, continued with his speech, "I am an elite citizen as I graduated from Tokyo University, and I expect you to treat me with respect as I am an elite an-"
Tsuru had enough of this man's bragging, she didn't even think he was being honest, call it gut feeling or sixth sense but she definitely could tell his whole speech was a lie.
Tsuru rearranged her books so it covered her desk from Nezu's view and decided to take a nap, perhaps by next period someone interesting, smarter would show up.
A lunch Tsuru decided that school sucked. The teacher especially, they were either boring or plain stupid (Nezu)!
She took out two bento boxes, one with an orange cloth and one with a purple cloth. She automatically knew where to go, the roof.
Opening the door to the roof Tsuru felt the gentle breeze of the wind, she truly felt free in the open space.
"Kyoya." Tsuru bent down and dropped the purple bento on the ground. "Mama made lunch for you."
Just before Tsuru left she added, "You better eat it."
The middle school girl then searched for a place to eat lunch, eventually she settled on climbing a tree whose branches were at a perfect level with one of the open windows into the hallways, giving her a shortcut if she wanted to enter the school building.
She opened her orange bento box and looked at her food, typical of her mother, it was fit for a five-star restaurant. Munching on the food she heard voices, several voices.
"Come on, you're pretty cute, so why won't you be my girlfriend?" Tsuru looked down to see one of the sempai and two freshmen girls being corner to the tree she was on.
"Sorry sempai," The light haired girl smiled blindingly, "We just met, I couldn't."
"Its fine, I'll be gentle with-" The boy started, but was interrupted by the light haired girl's friend.
"Back off you stupid monkey!" The raven head hissed, "Kyoko already said no! Get it into that thick brain of yours!"
Tsuru heard that animal reference, maybe that dark haired girl was related to the Hibari? She seemed to have the same traits, dark hair, and love/protectiveness for cute things.
The boy seemed to be enraged by the girl's defiance and raised his hand ready to strike, "Now you little bit-"
He was unable to finish his sentence as Tsuru had finished her lunch and jumped down from the tree. It just so happened that she landed on the sorry fool.
Tsuru dusted herself and was about to walk away when the girl, Kyoko spoke up, "Um, thank you very much for saving me, Sawada Tsunayoshi-san, right?"
Tsuru was about to correct her but realised she could use this error in her advantage, by only looking like a female in private locations would be able to ward people searching for her from the mafia, as she is already a well-known hacker and a super-rookie assassin.
Tsuru nodded and made no motion to introduce herself, so Kyoko continued, "My name is Sasagawa Kyoko and this is Kurokawa Hana." She motioned to the black haired girl next to her, "I hope we can be great friends." She flashes another bright smile, it reminded me of something.
Tsuru hesitated before answering, "I… I hope we can become good friends, Kyoko-san, Hana-san."
So she was wrong, middle school wasn't that bad, but she was unaware of the danger to come.
In another part of the world the Vongola Nono, the Ninth's, youngest son and only successor had just died, the only part of his body was bones. Nono was greatly saddened by this and it seemed that his granddaughter would be the only heir left.
'Reborn will finally meet his betrothed.'
Primal: An early stage in evolutionary development, basically base instincts in this case
Alpha: In this case it is the dominant animal or human in a particular group
