Aya: Yeah, another update my friends~ ( 9 * .*) 9

Mukuro: Kufufufu~

Aya: You again?

Mukuro: Oya? Do you not like my company?

Aya: Nope.

Mukuro: Kufufufu~ That would be preposterous…

Aya: Is it? I would rather enjoy a certain person's company than yours… *sticks out tongue*

Mukuro: Oya, oya? Who would that person be? *smirks*

Aya: I wonder...*smirks*

Mukuro: *amused* Oya? Your smirk seems pleasing~ Kufufufu~ Well, let me stop this conversation and let our readers start reading this chapter… We'll see you at the end of this chapter… Kufufufu~

DISCLAIMER: I. DO. NOT. OWN. ANYTHING. If I do, expect something that the original KHR series doesn't have…

WARNING/S: YAOI, SHOUNEN-AI, GENDERBENDER, CROSSDRESSING, OOC-ness & A -B-L-U-S-H-I-N-G- HIBARI…! .

PAIRING/S: 1827 (Hibari x Tsuna)

MAIN CHARACTERS: I believe everyone already knows them… :3

NOTE/S:

1.) Sentences in Italics are thoughts or recalling what they heard.

2.) (Spoiler Alert!) Though Tsuna changed into a girl, it is only temporary.

3.) This chapter is full of flashbacks.

4.) In this story, Luche is not a Sky Arcobaleno; rather, she's leading the group. She also doesn't have a short lifespan.

5.) Some characters might be a bit OOC, especially the Arcobaleno and Hibari.

6.) If Gokudera left his mansion and his mother died in the series, in this story, it didn't happen. Rather, when he turned eight, he chose to live with his mother.

7.) For those who didn't know, Lavina is the name of Gokudera's mother.

8.) Shinden-zukuri refers to the style of domestic architecture developed for palatial or aristocratic mansions built inHeian-kyō (平安京, today's Kyoto) in the Heian period (794-1185), especially in 10th century Japan. Though in this story, it is modernized.

9.) If I remember correctly, I said something about removing any mafia-related scenes in this story, but then again, I wouldn't enjoy it if there's no mafia… since KHR is very related to mafia, I decided to include it… and it would be entertaining if there are any mafia-related 'guests' entering the host club~ *smiles slyly*

Chapter 6 – Recalled by Emotions


*Previously on NHSHC*

"Hn." Hibari smirked. "Friendship? Who says anything about friendship? Since the day you showed up to us, you're disturbing my every existence, to the point where jeopardy occurred…"

"Ah… You still remembered it… Kufufufu~"

"If it wasn't for your family's mess, then I wouldn't be in this place…"

"I suppose so… But this way, we'll know which one will be chosen as the strongest one…"

"We'll see…"

"Kufufufufu~"


'I never wanted to experience this!'

"Oi, Tsuna! Stop daydreaming and continue with your studying!"

"Hai… Hai…" Tsuna sighed.

'How did it happen again?'


*flashback*


|Guest Room – Hibari's Manor House|


"Wh-What's that?!" –Tsuna

"A capsule." –Reborn

"I can see that… But… What does that do?!"

"No worries, this capsule will only change your appearance…"

"Then you will really change my body's appearance into a girl's?!"

"More or less…"

"MORE OR LESS?! How can I accept that?!"

"As the future boss, you must understand every situation and cope according to it… This time, you must change your appearance."

"No!"

"Desperate times calls for desperate measures…" Reborn smirked.

"Wait… What's with that look, Reborn? Reborn? Wha –!"

"Stop acting like a stubborn man!"

"Re-Reborn! Sto –! Wai –! Gyaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!"


"Work's done."

"My, my, Tsu-kun~ You're adorable~!"

"O-Oka-san!"

"Thanks for bringing it here, Fon…"

"My pleasure."

"Where is he?"

"At his room… It seems he doesn't want to meet his father, nor take a look at his fiancée…"

"Hm." Reborn smirked for the second time.

"EEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH?! Reborn! You told me my appearance will be the only one that would change!"

"I said, more or less…"

"I am a GIRL! Physically and biologically!"

"And how would you come up with that conclusion?"

"Can you even hear my voice?! THIS is a girl's voice!"

"Fon, you told me the capsule that Verde gave you is an appearance-transformation capsule."

"That's what he told me yesterday…" Fon sighed. "Yare, yare… It seems that Verde gave me a gender bending capsule…"

"This time, I'll spare his life… He gave me a fascinating invention." Reborn smirked.

"I wonder how long that capsule would take before he transforms into a boy again."

"I asked him for a long term transformation… It should be around a month or two…"

"A month or two?! No way!" –Tsuna

"It seems you have to be tutored with etiquette, young lady… Come, we'll start your private lessons… Fon, won't you mind me to make use of your study room?"

"I won't mind, Reborn, take your time…"

"I appreciate it." Reborn dragged the now-turned-lady-to-be-boss of Vongola to the study room.


*end of flashback*


|Hibari's Room|


"Young master, your father would like to have tea with you."

"Please notify him my rejection of his offer."

"But young master…"

"You dare discard my message to my father?"

"No sire… Excuse my intrusion…"

"Very well."


*sound of doors opening*

"Who gave you permission to enter my –"

"Yare, yare… What's this annoyance I am sensing?"

"What are you doing here?"

"Is it a taboo to come inside my son's room?"

"You are very aware of that."

"Kyoya…"

"If you have any intention on me considering you as my father then leave this room."

"I decline your command."

"What?" Hibari faced his father with a pissed-off look. Fon turned his smiling face into a serious one.

"It was never an imprudent decision."

"You do know that you should protect her yet she was caught up in jeopardy."

"I did my best to protect her."

"You removed her memories."

"We didn't."

"So how do you suppose to explain to me why she cannot remember anything in her past?"

"Kyoya, you do know the reason behind it. Our group was never involved in such occurrence."

"Tsk. And you call yourself a member of the Arcobaleno?"

"Do not let anger overcome you."

"We should never be in this place if it wasn't for you."

"There is always a reason for every incident."

"And you want me to embrace those experiences?"

"Emotions are not a bad thing."

"Emotions are humans' weaknesses."

"You are a human."

"I am different from the rest of them."

"And what do you call the rest?"

"Herbivores."

"I see…" Fon sighed. He turned and walked through the door but paused, "Kyoya…" he called. Hibari looked at his father.

"If she was able to regain her memories, she'll be disappointed by your actions…"

"Stop talking as if you know everything."

"I miss the old you, Kyoya… And so is she…" after that, he left, closing the door quietly.

Hibari sat in his chair, dazing at the ceiling. He recalled what his father told him earlier.

'I miss the old you, Kyoya… And so is she…'

"Miss…? Che."


*flashback*


"Kyoya…"

"What is it, father?"

"We have a guest…"


"Kyoya, this is... ..." –Fon

"Pleasure to meet you…" –Hibari

"Mm…"

"Please play with her for a while, Kyoya… Her father and I have to discuss some matters."

"Yes, father."

Fon left with his guest, the father of the girl.

"What do you want to do?" –Hibari

"…"

"Can you speak?"

She nods.

"Well then, speak for me."

"…"

Hibari raised an eyebrow.

"Are you scared of me?"

She nods.

Hibari sighed.

"Don't be scared… I'll protect you…"

Hibari hold her hand tightly.

"I'll protect you no matter what…"

She looked at him with awe.

"Promise?" finally, she talked.

"Promise."

She smiled.

He blushed.

But then, Hibari smiled… honestly.


"Thank you for discussing this with you, Fon. The boss will look forward to you joining the Arcobaleno…"

"Same pleasure as mine, sir."

"Reborn will be meeting you tomorrow by evening."

"Very well."

"Bye, bye…" she smiled sweetly while waving goodbye.

"Bye." Hibari replied back coolly.

She gave off a warm smile.

He smiled back. This would be his second honest smile.

And they parted.


Fon took his ringing phone.

"Hello? Reborn? Yes, I'm near that place, why? What? She was captured? By whom? I'll take her back, I promise…"

"Father?"

"Kyoya, don't leave this house."

"Yes, father."

"I'll bring her back…"

That was the last sentence his father said before he went out.


Hibari sneaked inside a closet in his father's study room. Soon, Fon, Reborn, Colonello, Verde and Luche went inside.

"I never thought that such technology exists…" Reborn started the conversation.

"Since the creation of the Possession Bullet, their family is known for that, kora!" Colonello replied.

"Even so, what's their agenda for capturing the young madam?" Luche asked worriedly.

"No doubt, this has something to do with restoring their family…" -Fon

"Though they have a remarkable field in science and technology, I must say they are not that much outstanding to the point that they made such recklessness." –Verde

"We must find a way to hide the young lady." –Reborn

"I believe Luche has an idea, am I correct?" –Fon

"This would be the only way to keep her until the right time comes… Colonello, contact Lal Mirch. I need to speak with the Outside Advisor." –Luche

"Sure, kora!" –Colonello

"Is Skull still in contact with us?" –Luche

"Of course. I asked him to spy on the family." –Reborn

"What about Viper?" –Luche

"We all know that he wouldn't take a job with no monetary payment, kora!" –Colonello

"Luche, what would be the plan?" –Reborn

"We need to remove all her connections with mafia…" –Luche

Everyone went silent.

"Verde… I need you to keep her memories about being involved with mafia…" Luche commanded softly but seriously.

"By keeping you mean removing it temporarily?" –Verde

"Is there such way?" –Luche

"Yes, I can do that. I am a great scientist at all." –Verde

"Wouldn't that be crucial?" –Fon

"Are you questioning my skills?" –Verde

"No, but to keep her memories, isn't that a bit too much?" –Fon

"As far as she's concerned, I don't want her to be involved to danger as she grows up." –Luche

"I understand… That's more like you, Luche." –Reborn

"What about her appearance, kora?" –Colonello

"About her appearance…" –Luche

Suddenly, Hibari went out the closet, flabbergasted at what he heard.

"Kyoya…" Fon called, astounded.

"You'll remove her memories." Hibari spoke rather than ask coldly. Fon can't find the right words and kept silent. Luche, noticing it, approached the aloof young Hibari and spoke calmly and soothingly.

"Kyoya… Do you wish to protect her?"

Hibari nodded despite his cold appearance.

"Then, keep protecting her. Your father and the rest of us are protecting her as well but in a different way."

Hibari stared at Luche, not quite catching what she said.

"If she remembers the tragic incident that she was involved, she might get scared. You don't want her to get scared, right?"

Hibari nodded again.

"This is the best solution for her. I know she'll forget the times you spend with her but she'll remember it once she is ready… But that day would be soon… It's best if we give her some time to rest and continue living without any worries… At those times, we'll be getting the bad guy for hurting her, okay?"

Hibari nodded. Luche accompanied Hibari through the door and handled him to the butler outside the room. Closing the door, Luche spoke.

"Don't worry Fon… he understood. Give him a day's rest." Luche smiled while Fon nodded assuringly.

"What about her appearance?" Reborn asked, bringing out the topic that was left.

"About her appearance…" Luche smiled.


Hibari was back in his room, still silent at what he heard earlier.

.

.

'…I need you to keep her memories about being involved with mafia…'

.

.

'By keeping you mean removing it temporarily?'

.

.

'Is there such way?'

.

.

"She'll forget…" Hibari mumbled coldly.

.

.

'I'll protect you no matter what…'

.

.

'Promise?'

.

.

"Promise…"


*end of flashback*


"Tsk." Hibari hid his face with his hands, his ears red in embarrassment.

"Why am I so foolish when I was young?!" he mumbled furiously.

He took the photo frame on his table and stared at it.

.

.

.

.

.

And stared.

.

.

.

.

.

Then paused.

.

.

.

.

.

And blushed.

.

.

'…for every decision comes with great responsibility…'

.

.

He remembered Reborn telling him that.

.

.

'Kyoya is asking for your son's hand in marriage.'

.

.

'I am a very healthy 14-year-old young boy! How can I marry a man?!'

.

.

'YOU are a healthy 14-year-old young lady. And it is not weird to marry a man since you're a lady…'

.

.

'I AM NOT A LADY! I'M A BOY!'

.

.

'How can Tsu-kun be Tsu-chan?'

.

.

'Easy. Change him into a girl'

.

.

'Change him to a girl?'

.

.

'Change him into a girl'

'Change him into a girl'

'Change him into a girl'

'Change him into a girl'

'Change him into a girl'

.

.

"Change him into a girl…"

.

.

.

And because of that thought, the school's strongest and 'coldest' student, Hibari Kyoya, is now in different shades of red…


*On the other hand…*


"Gokudera-sama, your mother has arrived from Venice."

"Understood."

Gokudera left his room and went towards the piano room.


"Mother?"

"I'm back, Hayato…"

"How's your trip?"

"It's fine… By the way, I met Bianchi along the way…"

"Bianchi…?"

"Oh, and she gave me this… This is for you…"

"C-Cookies…?!"

"I told her that you'll be having your piano recital soon and Bianchi told me you used to eat her cookies every time you have your piano recital, so she made you these…"

"Ugh… That's not it…" Gokudera sighed.

"I also met your father…"

"Father?" Gokudera paused.

"He's saying 'hi'."

"I know."

"You know?"

"He keeps on sending letters to me…"

"That's good…" his mother smiled.

"Yeah…"

"Ah, how's Takeshi…? I noticed that he hasn't visited this week…"

"Don't know…"

"Hayato…?"

"There's some… misunderstanding… and he… broke up with me."

"I'm sorry, Hayato…" Lavina embraced her son.

"It's my fault anyway…"

"Let me cheer you up… You remembered that piece, right? Play it with me…" Lavina smiled at her son, accompanying him to the grand piano. Gokudera accepted her offer and both played a piano piece which echoed around the hall of the mansion. It was then Gokudera smiled after the break-up with Yamamoto.

"Be sure to clear up your misunderstanding with him... It pains me to see you suffer from heartbreak..."

"Yes, mother..."

'I'll talk to him, I promise…'


|Training Hall - Yamamoto's Shinden-zukuri|


Yamamoto was busy training his Shigure Kintoki when his father, Tsuyoshi, came.

"Takeshi, here." Tsuyoshi gave Yamamoto a bento full of various sushis.

"Ah! Thanks, oyaji!" Yamamoto gave off a 1000-watt smile.

"Takeshi, you can't hide that from me…" Tsuyoshi smiled sadly. Yamamoto then frowned.

"Oyaji… I screwed up… It's all my fault… I became jealous then, I finished our relationship…"

"Ah… You do know I'm not yet acknowledging your relationship with the son of the Gokudera Family…" Tsuyoshi said sarcastically.

"Sorry…"

Tsuyoshi sighed then smiled. "If it's bothering you, then why not discuss it with him? Seeing your state, I can feel that you still love him…" he teased jokingly.

"O-Oyaji!" Yamamoto blushed.

"What are you blushing at, Takeshi? He was your lover…"

"Was…" Yamamoto smiled sadly.

Tsuyoshi sighed.

"…Is…" he smiled.

Yamamoto looked at his father and smiled.

"I'll talk to him, I promise…"

"That's my boy…! But I still don't acknowledge your relationship…"

"Oyaji! And you even told me he would be a great wife!"

"Ahahahahahahaha! Did I?"

"Yup! If you still don't recognize Gokudera as my lover then I'll make you like him!"

"Good Luck with that, Takeshi… If the two of you make up…"

"We will…!" Yamamoto smiled.

'I'll talk to him... I'll make up with him… I promise…'
