I sigh and ask, "Mukuro-sama…Why are you wasting your energy like this?"
"Kufufu, it isn't much of a waste if you stay in Kokuyo," he replies.
"I'm sorry, Mukuro-sama…I don't think that I can go through so much mental agony everyday…" I say. Then I bow and leave, dressed in a Naminori uniform.
"This is unexpected, but we will be welcoming a new student into our class today. She came here from Kokuyo. I know what you're thinking, but we checked her records and she is not a criminal. It appears that she got sent there by mistake. You can come in now," announces the teacher.
I open the door and step in. "Thank you for explaining that, sir," I say to the teacher. "Hello, my name is Sato, Kasumi. I'm glad that I was allowed to transfer here after the mistake that was made. Either way, it's nice to meet you all," I say, with a small smile on my face. Then, I bow. I overhear some whispers between two guys saying that I'm cute. "Kufufufu…one introduction and they've already noticed you. Oya, oya, I guess I'll have to show them that my cute little Kasumi is already mine."
Mukuro-sama?
"Good, now then, why don't you sit next to Gokudera right here?" says the teacher, pointing at the desk right in front of him.
"Okay," I nod.
"Sato-san, do you want to join us for lunch?" asks the Vongola.
"…Oh, yeah…Thanks, Vongola the Tenth," I reply. Then I feel my eyes widen slightly as both the Storm and Rain Guardians look at me.
"How do you know about the Tenth?" shouts the Storm Guardian.
"W-Why don't we all go to the rooftop first?" suggests the Vongola.
Once we get onto the roof top, I start to explain. "Yes, I guess you can say that I'm part of the mafia. Of course, Vongola the Tenth already knows about this. He was one of the people who helped me get into this school. I am also part of the Kokuyo Gang, but you have to understand the reason that I'm there. Either way, I'm here now to help with the ring conflict. I have no idea what the Arcobaleno has in mind though. In other words, I'm an ally…I guess," I say.
"Tenth! Is this true?" asks the Storm Guardian.
"Yeah," replies the Vongola, nodding.
"Then tell us, woman, why are you following Mukuro?" says the Storm Guardian.
"Imagine this for me. You are a child, everyday since you can remember has been filled with pain. You are experimented on everyday, a human guinea pig. The pain of theses experiments are overwhelming because put simply, they don't care how you're feeling. One day, you meet another person. He offers you freedom from this seemingly eternal pain and suffering. In return, all he wants is your loyalty. Wouldn't you give him your loyalty as well? Do you understand now?" I ask.
"Y-Yeah," nods the Vongola's Rain Guardian. The Storm Guardian nods gravely, as though he couldn't believe that someone like me managed to survive.
"S-Sato-san…You never did tell me what sort of experiments they did on you," says the Vongola.
"Hm? I thought that you heard the other day…" I say.
"Actually, I was too busy panicking…" he mutters.
"No matter, I guess I should tell you that too. Apparently, I was supposed to be a copy of Mukuro-sama. In other words, I would posses the same abilities as him. However, they only managed to strengthen my illusions. They were going to make me go through the Six Paths like Mukuro-sama did that day…The day we broke out. I don't think I would have made it though. I probably wouldn't be here if Mukuro-sama decided to break out a day later. I was already half-dead. They forced me to use my illusions every day. Over and over to the point where I almost died due to lack of rest," I say, recalling the pain.
"So, you're an illusionist?" asks the Rain Guardian.
"Correct," I reply, nodding. I let out a sigh, "Sorry…If you don't mind. I think I'll take a mental nap from here…"
After class I walked to the Disciplinary Committee Office and found the room empty except for…Bird's bird?
"Kasumi, Kasumi!" it chirped.
"Hello, so this is where you have been staying. I trust that your new owner is treating you well?" I say, petting the bird.
"Hibari, Hibari!" chirps the bird.
"Hibari-san huh…" I say. Suddenly, the bird starts to sing a familiar sounding song. Then I realize that it's the school anthem. I heard it a lot a Kokuyo when Hibari was kept 'prisoner' there. Feeling bored, I decide to sing with the bird until the door opens.
"Hibari, Hibari! Kasumi, Kasumi!" says the bird.
"Hibird? I didn't teach you that," says Hibari.
"'Hibird'? Ah, thank you for taking care of 'Hibird' then, Hibari-san," I say.
"Oh?" he says.
"The day we fist met," I remind him.
"Ah," he replies. "So, who taught you?" asks Hibari, probably still wondering about Hibird saying my name.
"Pineapple head!" replies Hibird.
"Rokudo Mukuro…" says Hibari. I cringe slightly from the amazingly strong killing intent.
"Please calm down Hibari-san…" I mutter.
"You seem to be awfully calm," he comments, the killing intent fading.
"Thank you," I reply.
"Hmm…? He actually calmed down," comments Mukuro.
Huh? You were listening?
"Of course, I have to see what my cute little Kasumi is doing," he replies.
"Are you coming?" asks Hibari.
"Oh…Uh, sorry, Hibari-san," I reply, following Hibari outside
