Kryptonite - chapter 9 ^^

Disclaimer: I don't own Katekyo Hitman Reborn. If I did, there would be a lot more coupling amongst the characters! I'm just borrowing Amano Akira's characters for the sake of this story because I love it! *shot*


The next day after another sleepless night, she went to school as usual. The note that Mukuro gave her now resided in her pocket. Slipping through the gate she was greeted with whispers. She knew what they where all saying however she chose not to listen.

Sliding the note into Tsuna's locker she walked into class being greeted by most people, the brunette in particular as well as a grin from Yamamoto. Although she rarely spoke to the two, they walked over while Gokudera sat rooted to the seat, never talking to anyone but Tsuna and Yamamoto.

'Hey there' Yamamoto chirped happily. 'I heard from the little guy that your part of this mafia game too'

Azura remained silent for a moment. 'Game?' she whispered. She didn't know whether to be socked or upset by this. 'You really think this is a game? My mother is dead because of this so called "game"' She spat bitterly.

Yamamoto was speechless. He had no idea what to say but he knew he had offended the girl.

'Ne, ne, I didn't mean it like that, im sor-' He was cut off by the sight of her back.

'I'm leaving' she muttered walking briskly out of the door and into the girls room.

Moments later the door behind her burst open. Girls charged in surrounding the brunette, whispering petty words.

'Why did you say that to Yamamoto?' one asked pushing her into an opposite wall of girls. She knew she couldn't use the steel rod on them, as that was still a secret. All she could do was remain silent and defenceless.

She was thrown onto the ground, the girls around her screamed at her while endlessly kicking and stomping on the young girl.

Minutes later the door once again burst open. Azura looked up only to see a trio of feet walking in. The beating stopped and the sea of girls parted to reveal the three.

The gang of schoolgirls where shocked that boys entered the toilets let alone Yamamoto being one of them.

'Hey!!' Gokudera screamed. Azura sat there stunned. He actually spoke to someone besides Tsuna and Yamamoto. The girls immediately scattered and Tsuna was helping Azura up while Yamamoto helped her up.

'Hey' Yamamoto spoke softly, 'I'm sorry for what I said earlier.'

She smiled at this. 'It's okay, thank you for helping me out there.'

'So, err, this is the what the girls toilets look like?' Tsuna mumbled looking around.

'Get out!' she shouted shoving the three of them out of the door.

They stood outside the room for a moment.

'So that's bloody gratitude for you' Gokudera spat.

The hallways remained silent for a moment, all except the pacing of footsteps which headed towards them.

They all looked up at Hibari, whom stood there glaring at them. 'Get to classes now, or I'll bite you to death'

Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Azura was cleaning herself from the makeup which had run, and wiped the blood from her lip.

She now regretted slipping the note into Tsuna's locker. She wanted to get it back but how? Then she remembered Hibari. Surly if anyone could, it would be him.

Exiting the bathrooms and climbing up the stairs, she crept into the disciplinary room only to be greeted by a sleeping Hibari.

She didn't know whether to wake him or not so she sat opposite him, debating it over and over again in her head.

'What are you doing?' a voice broke her thoughts. Hibari lay there staring at her through hazy eyes. Damn it, he looked so cute.

'H-Hibari? How long have you been awake for?' she asked startled, jumping about 3ft in the air.

'Long enough to hear you come in without permission. Now answer my question, what are you doing?' He asked sitting up.

'I really need your help. I put something into Tsuna's locker I really shouldn't have.' Her face was in her hands.

'And…' he said wanting her to go on.

'And I really need it. Please Hibari, I've never asked you for anything until now' she spoke looking between her fingers and leaning towards him.

'Except to live with me, eat my food, wake me up last night, come here without my permission and wake me up again.' He was standing now and walking out of the door.

'Hey, you offered me all of that! And I didn't wake you up last night, you where already-' she shut up, recalling last nights events.

He stopped dead. 'I was what?' he blatantly couldn't remember anything of the night before.

'You where already awake and went to bed as soon as I came in.' she mumbled, sure she left out a few minor details but what could happen.

He looked at her and nodded his head signalling her to follow. So she ran after him, down the halls and to the lockers. Slowly Hibari revealed one tonfa and with ease knocked the lock off.

'Well I could've done that' she mumbled, earning a death glare from the prefect. 'I mean, thank you' she smiled sweetly opening the small door and retrieving the note.

'What is that?' he asked, trying to grab the piece of paper.

'Nothing~' she sang, shoving it in her bag and running off.

That lunch she ate with Tsuna and his friends (Since Yoji was absent) and the spoke about everything that had happened in the last week, mainly the people whom had been coincidentally absent from school due to random attacks around Namimori.

The bell soon rang and everyone packed up their bags before Reborn appeared wanting to talk to the four.

'About these unknown attacks around Namimori' he spoke in a serious tone. 'Ryohei has been targeted and attacked.'

'You mean, Sasagawa? Isn't he part of the boxing club though?' Azura spoke.

'Yes' He replied. 'And he is also part of our family.'

With intentions of going to the hospital after school, they all headed back to class. All except Azura who decided to skip the next few lessons.

She lay in the sun for what felt like hours until a voice broke her out of her trance.

'Azura, get to class now' Hibari spoke sternly.

'Please Hibari, I really don't feel like going to classes this afternoon. A lot's happened.' She breathed, closing her eyes.

'You mean the attacks on your friends? Im going to sort it out tonight' he replied sitting down beside her.

This of all things caught her attention 'Y-your going? Why? Where?' She asked frantically sitting up.

'Anyone who disturbs the peace of Namimori will be bitten to death.' He muttered lying down and closing his eyes.

'So you wont be home this evening?' she followed him, closing her eyes.

'No, I'll be in. I won't be going until early in the morning.' She said. 'Why do you ask, you have training tonight don't you?'

'Yeah, I just don't like to be alone is all.' He mumbled, quietly drifting off into a light sleep.

A few hours later, the evening bell rang, awaking Azura abruptly. Not to any surprise Hibari was no longer beside her. She looked over the edge of the rooftop to see him with doctor Shamal, whom was new at the school.

Below her she heard someone shouting 'Who the hell would do this to tenths locker!'

Yeah it was Gokudera, and they where all heading towards Ryohei.

Running down the stairs and out the exit she met them and walked towards the hospital.
