Chap 7. The Indigo Mist, Viper

If all of you remember, the previous chapter ended with Reborn, Luche, Lal, and Colonello entering the hut and Viper is watching them through a monitor. Why is there even a monitor when he lives in a hut? Well, if you want to know, read carefully ne! XP


"Th-th-this hut is dark!" Lal said with a trembling voice, though she tried her best to sound brave.

Inside of the hut is dark. Yes, as dark as Lal said. You know it's REALLY dark since Lal is so scared. Even the four of them couldn't see each other's face once the door was shut. Lal really hope, from her deepest heart, that she won't encounter something occult.

BRUGH! A sound of something hit the ground.

"EEK!" Lal jumped and quickly hugged the arm of the person nearest to her. Colonello flinched a bit when he felt someone touching his hand. He grinned and blushed. "You're really scared, huh, La-HII!" Colonello jumped when he saw the person who was touching him is Reborn. Yes, REBORN.

Meanwhile, Lal is sticking herself up to Luche and didn't want to let go of her arm. "Calm down, Lal.." Luche said while smiling brightly. How can she act so calm in a place like this?

Back to Colonello and Reborn. "HOLY FUCK! Why are you the one who held my hand!" Colonello shouted.

"How am I supposed to know!" Reborn shouted back. Honestly, I want to hold Luche's hand!

"Shit! And I really wanted to hold Lal's hand!" Colonello shouted again. "I want to hold Luche's hand too!" Reborn shouted back again. The room silenced for a while before suddenly Reborn coughed after he's back to his senses.

"I mean.. It's much more better than holding your filthy hand.." Reborn said with his calm tone.

"Whose hand are you calling filthy? You're filthy yourself! That sideburns are the proof!" Colonello yelled while pointing at Reborn's sideburns. "Stop saying filthy! Don't you know someone once said it's attractive?" Reborn yelled.

PLAK! Colonello and Reborn felt the hot sensation on one of their cheeks. Is it a punch? Or is it a hit? No, it's.. The Legendary: Luche's Scary-Pregnant-Woman Slap! And it successfully landed both of them to the ground.

"Behave!" Luche said with a very scary tone, but her face still shows a smile. Incredible for her to be able to see Reborn and Colonello's cheeks in such a dark place.

"It's so dark, Luche.." Lal said while holding someone's hand. Yes, SOMEONE. Who knows who that someone is. But Luche quickly turned around to see Lal in the dark. "I'm here, Lal. Who are you talking to?" she asked. Lal froze for a while and start to examine the person beside her. Yeah, that person is wearing a white outfit, just like Luche. But there's bloodstain on it. W-wait, wait, wait! Wait a minute! Did I say bloodstain? Oh yes, it's bloodstain.

"Good morning.." that person said with a wide smile while her bangs covered her face, though one of her eye was seen through it and some blood on her face. Oh and! The blood is dripping from her chin.

"G-" Lal stepped back a little. Luche, Reborn, and Colonello also happen to see that person. She looks like Sa***o. They widened their eyes in surprised and horrified. And they also stepped backward.

"GYYAAAAAAAA!" the four of them yelled before they ran towards the exit as fast as they can. (Note: Luche is pregnant, but she decided to run after all)

But when they arrived, the door is locked. Reborn and Colonello used all of their strength to try to open the door, but unfortunately, they failed. "GAH! I can't take this! I have to use force!" both of them said as Reborn took out his gun and Colonello took out his rifle.

"Hey, hey! Wait a minute! Where did you get those?" Luche asked. Confused by how their weapons appeared when a while ago, seems like that weapons aren't there. But Lal patted Luche's shoulder hardly.

"Th-th-that doesn't matter anymore, right? As long as we can get out of here!" Lal said while trying to keep her jaw in the right place. Because it's trembling too hard and it feels like it's going to broke off. "Colonello!" Lal called. Colonello turned around to see his Commander. "What is it, Lal?" he asked. "Fire!" she said as she raised one of her hands up.

"Got it!" he said as he and Reborn began to fire all the bullets inside their weapons. BANG! BANG! BANG! DOR! DOR! DOR! Yee-ha! *Am I a cowgirl? O.o*

Finally, the door disappeared. I mean, because they fired to much bullet, nothing's left. As they see the light outside, they quickly ran out of that place. "Land!" Lal said as she lied herself on the ground happily.

"Wow. My strict and fearsome Commander who killed a bear with bare hands now trembled like crazy because of ghost.." Colonello teased her. She got up and quickly landed a punch right on his face. "Bear and ghost are different stories!" she said stubbornly.

"Hey, people!" Reborn stated. All of them turned their attention to him.

"Don't you think it's weird for a famous illusionist to live in a run-down hut?" he said as he putted his fingers under his chin.

"I TOLD YOU ABOUT THAT SINCE THE BEGINNING!" Lal yelled on the top of her lung. She's furious now. Since the beginning, she already asked them a couple of time, are they sure about this hut as the illusionist's house or not!


"Huh..? They've already figured it out? No fun.." Viper said with a bored voice while watching his monitor. Then he stood up from his seat. He walked slowly towards the door. "I better greet them properly. Maybe they'll pay me for a job.." he muttered before he closed the door.


"WHAT? Illusion, you say!" Luche, Lal, and Colonello yelled in unison. Reborn nodded.

"This is the only conclusion I can come up with. The owner of this hut, the famous illusionist, Viper is covering the whole house with his illusion. I don't know for what reason he did that though. But don't you think it's weird for him who has that much money to live in a place like this?" Reborn stated distinctly.

"Now that you mention it.." Luche said while wondering.

"He should've been living in a huge house or mansion.." Lal said. "Or a castle!" Colonello added. BUK! "Shut up!" Lal said after she gave her student a hit on his head.

"Splendid.." someone appeared from inside the hut. He's wearing and all-black outfit. Covering almost all his body and half of his face. Yes, that's the most famous illusionist, Viper! "..But I won't give you any reward related to money.." he added.

"YOU!" Reborn and Lal said in unsion while pointing at him. Luche just smiled and Colonello is confused.

"Hm?"

"You are the one in that room that time, right?" Lal said while walking towards him.

"And you rejected Luche's cookies too that time!" Reborn said while walking towards him too.

"Shut your fucking mouth, Reborn! How many times do you think it already is?" Lal whined. "What are you talking about?" Reborn asked innocently. "I mean the cookies, idiot!" she said as pulled Reborn's sideburns. "Everytime we meet one of the people from that room, all you said was about the cookies, cookies, and espresso!" she whined while pulling the sideburns as hard as she can.

"What are the two of you talking about..?" Viper asked.

"Don't you remember? We met several weeks ago in that room!" Reborn and Lal said. Viper silenced himself for a while before he parted his lips to talk. "Sorry, I don't remember anything about that. I've never seen your faces.." he said.

"Then get rid of that freakin' hood, you B***H!" Lal shouted while Reborn tried to hold her back before she killed something.

"Ah.. Maybe I'll remember with some reminder.." he said offering one of his hands. "What is it?" Lal asked.

"What a stupid child. I mean money. M-O-N-E-Y.." he said. And he even spelled every of its letters.

"You B*****D!" Lal shouted on the top of her lung. PANG!


"Heya.. I didn't mean to ask for your wealth, I just ask for some money.." Viper said slowly as Luche took care of the wound on his right cheek. It's swollen and it's red. Plus, he received a death glare from Reborn.

The five of them are now sitting on a comfortable couch inside of a luxurious living room. Yeah, it's Viper's real house! It was covered in illusion before, but now the real thing is shown by Viper after he received Lal's Monster Commander Slap! (Yay! Luche got a slapping rival! XD)

"You ask for some money when you're already this rich? And what's the point in covering your house with illusion!" Lal said as she slammed the table.

"To prevent burglary.." Viper answered calmly. "WHAT THE HELL!" Lal shouted again.

"You see. When people see a scary hut, they won't even have guts to get near, so I don't have to be afraid of burglar anymore. You know how important money is.." he explained. BUAK!

"How the hell should I know something freakin' unimportant like that?" Lal said after she sent a punch on Viper's another cheek.

"Money is important, you naïve. I don't need anything except that. You don't know when the world crisis will come again.." he said while rubbing newly wounded cheek.

"You are the naïve one, you freakin' illusionist scum!" Lal shouted at him. But then she inhaled deeply. "I'm going home!" she said while walking away.

"Wait, Lal! I'll go with you!" Colonello said while following Lal.

"Then, I guess we'll go home too, Viper-san. Pleased to meet you. Ah! Sorry about the late introduction. My name is Luche from the GiglioNero Famiglia. This Reborn from Vongola Famiglia. And the two from before are Lal Mirch and Colonello-kun from COMSUBIN.." Luche said. Viper nodded.

"I respect the GilgioNero. It's a pleasant to meet you.." Viper said.

"Come on, Luche!" Reborn said. He's already in front of the exit door. "Coming!" Luche said while running slowly towards Reborn. "How many times do I have to tell you not to run? You're pregnant.." he said while caressing her tummy.

"Hehe.. Sorry, Reborn.." she said with a smile.


"GilgioNero.. Vongola.. COMSUBIN..? This is going to be interesting.." Viper said with a small smile while counting his money.
