Author's Note: Final transition chapter…


Disclaimer: I own Katekyo Hitman Reborn.


Once I get back from the beach, I shower and change into my yukata. "Minako, where did you get that?" asks Onii-san.

"Onii-san, I think that you bought it for me…" I reply, looking at the purple cloth with cherry blossoms on it.

He continues to frown and says, "I'll get you a new one then."


"50,000," says Onii-san.

"H-Hibari-san!" shouts Sawada.

"What are you doing here?!" shouts Gokudera.

"Could you be…?" starts Yamamoto.

"We pay the lot fee to the Discipline Committee?!" exclaims Sawada.

"To pay for operations. If you can't pay, I'll destroy the shop," says Onii-san, smirking evilly. Thus, he receives 50,000 yen from a nearby stand.

"Onii-san, I think that's it for this area other than Sawada's. I'll meet up with you again when I get bored, okay?" I whisper. In response, he simply pats me on the head and leaves.

"Did Hibari-san…just pat your head…?" asks Sawada, sounding shocked.

"Hm….? Is there something strange about that?" I ask, confused.

"Chocolate banana, please!" says Sasagawa and a brunette at the same time.

"Kyoko-chan! Haru!" exclaims Sawada.

"Hello, Sasagawa-san, Mirua-san," I say.

"Minako-chan, you look so pretty!" exclaims Mirua.

"Minako-chan, calling us 'Kyoko-chan' and 'Haru-chan' is okay. You don't have to be so formal. We're friends right?" says Sasagawa.

"Same here, we're friends so, 'Tsuna-kun', 'Gokudera-kun', and 'Yamamoto-kun' should be fine," says Sawada.

"…Okay then…" I reply, raising my right eyebrow.

"Here," says Gokudera, passing Kyoko and Haru two chocolate banannas.

"These look good, can I get one too?" I ask, passing him the right amount of money. Then, I see a little boy call Tsuna 'Tsuna-nii' as Kyoko and Haru leave. "Tsuna-kun, you have a little brother?" I ask.

"Eh? No, I don't. This is Fuuta," says Tsuna.

"Nice to meet you," I say. Yup, like Onii-san, I have a soft spot for kids.

"Nice to meet you too, Hibari, Minako. Actually, I haven't ranked you yet…" he says. Then, things start to levitate, myself included. "Hibari, Minako: third in most wanted women ten years in the future and first in people that Hibari, Kyoya cares for." Finally, everything stops floating and Futta writes something down in a gigantic red book. Then he leaves to see the mikoshi after saying good-bye.

"Number one in people that Hibari-san cares for…? That's a category…?" mutters Tsuna. I hear Gokudera mutter something about third.

"…What was that?" I ask.

"Fuuta just ranked you. They're really accurate since it's not raining right now…." he replies.

"Here," says Gokudera, passing me a chocolate banana.

"Thank you," I say, smiling politely. I see a faint blush form on his face. "Well, good luck," I say walking off somewhere else.


I walk around with Onii-san, now in regular clothing because he got so annoyed looking at the cherry blossoms. I see a very large group of people about to beat up Tsuna. "Onii-san, there's a really big crowd," I comment, eyeing the people. Instantly, he takes out his tonfas and beats up the nearest person. Sighing at the fact that I left my naginata at home, I take out my tonfas and, not wanting to miss out on the fun, I beat up the second closest person. "I thought that I found a delicious little flock, and it turned out to be the big catch of thieves I've been after," says Onii-san, smirking.

"My day of fruitless information collecting paid off then," I mutter.

"Hibari-san! Minako-chan!" shouts Tsuna.

"Who are those two?" someone asks.

"The Disciplinary Committee of Nami-Middle!" replies the other.

"The girl too?!"

"This saves me the trouble of collecting. The money you took will be taken by the Disciplinary Committee," says Onii-san, smirking evilly again.

"Isn't this a little much even for Hibari-san?" asks Tsuna, shaking. Then he goes insane and looks like he did while saving the little girl earlier today. "Come at me!" he shouts.

"You're in the way," Onii-san says to Tsuna.

"They're only three middle schoolers! One of them is a girl too! All at once, go at them!" says the leader. Then there's an explosion. When the smoke clears up, Gokudera shouts, "Tenth!"

"We came to help!" shouts Yamamoto.

"Don't kid around, I'm taking the stolen money," says Onii-san.

"No way," declares the ogre-like Tsuna.

"Naturally," agrees Gokudera.

"Yeah!" says Yamamoto, also agreeing with the ogre-like Tsuna.

"I really don't care, I just don't like these people," I state.

"Why are you getting all excited among yourselves? Get them!" shouts the leader.


Now the sun is down and the group of thieves are in a pile on the ground. It wasn't as fun as I'd hoped because it wasn't very hard. "They're so strong…" one of them says.

"Are you really middle schoolers?" asks another.

"Yes, and I really am a girl," I reply sweetly.

"I'll be taking this," says Onii-san, taking the leader's wad of money.

"I won't let you take this money," says the ogre-Tsuna, protecting the box of money. Gokudera and Yamamoto stand in front of him. Then Tsuna returns to normal.

"W-We worked together to earn this. I can't let you take it!" declares Tsuna.

"That's right, we won't let you take it!" exclaims Gokudera.

"That's the way it is!" says Yamamoto.

"Hah," replies Onii-san, still smirking evilly. I see him look at the two kids and then he says, "In that case, you owe me one." Then he starts to walk away. I run to catch up with him. When I do catch up with him I ask, "Onii-san, you're not going to collect any more money right?"

"No, that would be troublesome. Let's go home," he replies.

"Okay. Onii-san, look, there are fireworks," I say, looking up at the sky. I smile and ask, "Onii-san, doesn't this remind you of when we were younger?" He nods in response. I smile, my childhood wasn't that bad…

"While you we're collecting money today, I talked to a kid that Sawada knows. Apparently, he ranks things and they're really accurate," I say, as we continue to walk home.

"Oh? What did he say then?" he asks.

"He said that I'm the person you care for most. I already knew that though," I reply, smiling.

He pats my head and says, "You really are getting more and more like an herbivore. An omnivore maybe."

"An omnivore…Hm, that should be good enough. It's hard to be as strong as you, Onii-san," I reply happily.
