"Tsuna, sit down. I have an important matter to discuss."

As Tsuna sat down on the tatami mat across the table, he asked. "W-what is it about?"

"I need to set up an arranged marriage for my sister, Lala, and a certain. . . Vongola. . ." she answered, narrowing her eyes to his.

Tsuna gulped.


Chapter 4: Tsuna, Here's The Thing. . .

Sawada Residence
6 pm

The atmosphere around the place was so dense. Tsuna and Lillian didn't speak another word for a few moments, leaving those few moments very quiet. . .

"I guess it would be with that guardian that has to keep the lineage." Reborn said to break the silence.

"Yes. The descendant of Daemon Spade, Mukuro Rokudo." Lillian added.

"Tsuna, do you remember when Daemon was dying on his last battle, we found out he was strengthening the Vongola for Elena? Well, whether you remember it or not, Elena, the lover of Daemon, has a descendant. And it's Lala Francoise." Reborn said, putting a weird emphasis on the word 'strengthening'.

Mukuro Rokudo?

"I-I don't get it. Why does it have to be Mukuro? Can't it be someone else?" Tsuna questioned, clenching his fists on his thighs.

"You're volunteering? That would be better actually." Reborn teased with his casual smirk.

"N-no! It's not that! It's just. . . We both know that Mukuro is dangerous and doesn't want to get involved with mafia."

Lillian coughed to cut in their conversation. "Tsuna, there is this ring that has been passed down from one generation to another. Daemon passed on, not a ring, from what it seems, it is the symbol on the right eye, and looks. And for Lala, it was a pendant. If I am not mistaken, you have seen a photo with the photo of the Vongola Primo's family and Lady Elena?"

"That's right." Reborn answered.

"Just as guessed. Well, that is what the Francoise has gotten. Tsuna, as his boss, I need your consent and, it's because he doesn't have parents."

"How about Chrome-chan? What will happen to her?!" asked Tsuna, worried so much about the female guardian.

"Ah. Once the engagement is official, Chrome will recover her organs, completely and realistically, and Mukuro shall be freed from Vindice."

Both of the men, shocked from the things she said, became tense yet silent. The blonde female stood up. "Last thing, no need for that meeting with Dino. Sorry for the trouble."

She left.


In A Small Apartment
6. 30 pm

A thud from the school bag was heard in the small apartment rented by Lala and Xerion.

"Xerion, bring me coffee and something to snack on." She said as she trotted to her room, feeling fatigued and angered. On the way to the Sawada residence, Reborn popped out of nowhere telling that the appointment is cancelled! The nerve!

When the blonde student opened the door, she saw a piece of paper on her table. Curious to know where it came from, she took the paper and read the content. Her eyes widened as she was getting closer and closer to the end of the message.

To Lala,

Good evening, my dear little sister! Are you surprised to find this at your desk now? No? Then let this surprise you!

Lord Daemon's descendant is somehow nearby. Not only the descendant, but also Lala, keep in mind that, I'm not forcing you to marry some guy who's as evil as the present Daemon! I'm only forcing you to marry a strong Vongola 10th guardian. You wouldn't have a hard time with that. I'll be sending you information on all the guardians. Pick one (or two ;)) that you want. Here are their names.

Tsunayoshi Sawada- Sky

Hayato Gokudera- Storm

Takeshi Yamamoto- Rain

Ryohei Sasagawa- Sun

Lambo- Storm

Chrome Dokuro- Mist

Mukuro Rokudo- Mist

Kyouya Hibari- Cloud

Shocked, little sister?! You should be! Mwahahaha! And to piss you off, I've known about them for a long time. Well, don't reply! You wouldn't know where to send your letter if you'd reply anyway. The fax might be there already. If not, it will come.

Love,
Lillian Francoise.

"Xerion!" she called. Immediately, the butler came to her room.

"Yes? Is there anything bad that has happened? Are you—"

"It's being planned now. . ."

"Then let's get you ready. Which guardian do you want to visit first?"

"Hibari Kyouya. Vongola Family 10th Generation Cloud Guardian."

The sound of the fax machine started without warning. A lot of papers were coming in. None of the two bothered to touch the papers.

"Of course, mistress. Is there anything else?"

"My coffee?! And FOOD?!"

"It will be here shortly."

The butler left. The blonde lied down on her not-so-comfy bed and stared at the ceiling. She had a poker face on. After a few moments, a smirk formed on her lips.

"Hibari, will you remember me?"
