Chapter 7: First Kill

What was she doing in Tsuna's place again? Oh yeah. Apparently, Sawada Tsunayoshi had made his first kill and he's probably going to arrested. That didn't stop her from congratulating him. "You've finally took a step towards adulthood." Mori said cheerfully.

"THIS ISN'T A GOOD STEP TOWARDS-"

"Don't be too loud, Sawada san. You'll attract the police." She lectured almost sternly. "So, why don't we find a way to hide this body?" she kicked the prone figure. It was a man dressed in burglar's garb. "I know someone who can do this."

"That's not right in so many ways!" Tsuna wailed. Haru was somehow with, crying.

"I'll wait until you're out of jail, Tsuna san!"

Yamamoto and Gokudera stared at the dead body.

"You sure he's dead?"

"Ah! He moved!"

"I called someone in for this." Reborn announced. He was about to say something else when...

"Ack! Hentai Isha!" Mori pointed rudely as the intoxicated man entered Tsuna's room. "And he's...drunk...that's gonna be helpful."

"I don't treat men." The guy said in slurred language as he glanced at the body. "Besides, is that guy even alive? If he's not breathing, has no pulse, no heart beat, and has dilated pupils, he's dead."

Gokudera checked his pulse. "He doesn't have a pulse."

Yamamoto put a slip of paper in front of his nose. The paper didn't move. "He's not breathing."

Haru checked his heart beat. "He doesn't have a heart beat."

Mori glanced at his eyes. "His pupils are dilated."

Dead silence.

"I'm calling someone else in for this." Mori sighed. "Reborn, you're helping me." She took out her cell phone and...this time using the right side, dialed a number and waited. "Mm...it's Hibari kun, right?"

"WHAT!!!!!" Everyone but Reborn screamed. "YOU'RE CALLING HIBARI KYOUYA?!"

She ignored them. "Reborn has a favor to ask you...it's not my...just...you want me to throw paint on your walls again...well...not really...Reborn's the baby...you suck at remembering...alright, point taken...geez...I think I'll do something nasty to him..." There were clouds and sun today. Mori is in a very active mood (also known as violent). She handed the phone to the infant, who began discussing with the prefect in an undertone.

A few seconds later, Mori snatched her phone back. "How long are you going to...you have a motorcycle?! I never knew that! Can I run someone over with it? No? Aw..." she hung up with a gloomy expression. "Vampire kun won't let me run someone with his motorcycle." And sighed. Kyouya probably wouldn't care, except it was his motorcycle and he might be blamed for the murders. And he most probably doesn't want blood on it. "He'll be here in a few minutes..."

Sure enough, two minutes later, they heard a motor engine run outside and Kyouya appeared through the window a few seconds later.

"That was fast." Mori commented.

"Perhaps." It was officially decided between Gokudera, Yamamoto, and Tsuna that the two third years got along the best when Mori was in her sadistic mood. They actually go through a civilized conversation together. Well, as civilized as Mori can get, anyways. Which...ah...isn't exactly that civilized...

Anyhow...Kyouya walked up to the corpse, kicking it experimentally. "Good going. You got the heart in one shot."

"Isn't Sawada san growing more mature? His first kill." Mori sounded like a mom whose son just won the Nobel prize at age ten.

"Perhaps."

See what I mean? You call that a civilized conversation? Definitely not. A normal conversation is supposed to contain minimum or no violence and here they are discussing killing as a first step in growing up! Not right! So not right! Cough, cough, cough...anyways...back to the...yeah...

Kyouya shrugged. "The baby owes me if I do you this service."

"That's why I called you."

"Fine. I can get rid of this corpse for you." He said, not sounding guilty at all. He was probably used to dealing under the table stuff like these. He was...Kyouya after all. Why was he the disciplinary committee head? He was not supposed to be doing black deals with little Mafioso! Oh well. "I'll arrange it so the corpse will never be found."

"WHAT? THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT MORI SAID!"

The blue haired girl shrugged, delicately adjusting her somewhat long bangs (at least, in comparison to the rest of her hair length) like nothing was happening. "Hey, I get to know the guy's line of work during project times." Well, during sunny days with clouds. Where their interests are somewhat similar. Violence, fighting, more violence, under table dealings, and more violence. "What, you've buried how many bodies? Fifteen?"

"sixteen including this one." Kyouya said before turning to leave. "I'll send someone over from the disciplinary committee later to get rid the corpse." And with that, he jumped out the window. "Later, Fujisaki."

"Mm...bye. Hibari kun." Mori waved airily with her broken arm (casted) while examining the corpse with a peculiar expression. "Hey...this guy really isn't...he's using that..."

Just then, Gokudera stuck a bunch of dynamite out the window and towards Kyouya. The dynamite expert was yelling something about revenge. The prefect simply knocked it all back. Gokudera got a sweat drop. "Geh..."

There was a huge explosion in Tsuna's room, along with some screams and curses. So that's what happens when people try dealing with Kyouya...huh...

When the smoke cleared, Tsuna found that his room was still intact, but the floor was kind of...messed up.

Mori found herself staring at the carpet. She should be staring at a body! Not a fake, red, Persian carpet! "Mm...Yamamoto...the corpse is gone..." she mumbled, tapping the boy on the shoulder.

"Eh? She's right! The corpse..."

"Oh Kami sama..."

"In the explosion...did it..."

"I knew it." Mori glared at the man in front of her, who turned out to be the corpse, alive. "You weren't dead. It's addio...gah...I hat that technique."

The burglar laughed sheepishly. "Yeah. Sorry, but how did you know?"

"Your skin wasn't changing color." Mori pointed out. "Addio's reaction to temperature is slower than normal death. The skin should've been at least white, or blue by now if it were real death."

"What is this?" Tsuna and Haru screamed. "Zombie!"

"Moretti is a specialist in the Vongola family." Reborn said. "He uses a technique called Addio to stop his heart beat, giving him a semblance of death." He turned to Mori. "How did you know this?"

"One of my martial arts teachers knew how to do it." She explained. "He taught me how to tell the difference between real death and what's a ma call it...Addio," She sighed. "It was good times. I used to push him into the lake when I wanted him to come out of that state. Because he can't help me when he's dead, you know?" she frowned. "I think that's why he was sent to the hospital that time. I didn't know the water was that cold!" Actually, quite the contrary, she thought the water would boil him alive. That was the reason she pushed him into the lake...still murderous intentions...There were clouds that day. But it was sunny..."It was good times..."

Tsuna sighed. The poor guy's life was never going to go back to normal, was it...? Mori's going to make sure of that...
