Summary: In which Giotto, G and Asari dress up as pokemon and we all watch an insane play.
Disclaimer: Katekyo Hitman Reborn does not belong to me! If it did, a lot of questions would be answered… Also, Vocaloid does not belong to me! If it did, I would have turned myself into a Vocaloid so I could hang out with the Kagamines and the rest…
A/N: Um… hello?
*dodges rotten fruit and bricks and stones and stuff*
Ok, Ok, I'm sorry! I'm sorry I just kept uploading oneshots and not updating the rest of my on-going fics! But I swear to you, the updates are in progress. Really! Honest! Believe me please!
Thanks to Nightrel for letting me use her OC, Lena Stites. I'm still accepting OC requests guys~ Send in your OC requests guys! Send 'em in! Send 'em in!
Kudos to those who can spot the oh-so-obvious Vocaloid references.
I tripped over the hem of my dress for what must be the gazillionth time and landed in the dirt. My mask fell off.
"Dammit," I muttered as I got up. "Why does my dress have to be so long?"
"Lillian-chan!" AU-Hibari squealed and rushed over, his pink and violet dress swishing madly. "are you all right? Did you get any boo-boos? Shall I bite them better?" (Note: this is AU-Hibari's version of "I'll bite you to death.")
"Nooo need." I said slowly, backing off quickly. I slapped my mask back into my face and ran away. If I had stayed, AU-Hibari would have put me in bed and tucked me in and read me a bedtime story and god knows what else.
So, time to explain what's going on.
You see, KHR has just reached its 7th anniversary, remember?
So in order to celebrate, the studio threw a masquerade party.
Masquerade party. Pffft. Think girls in huge ballroom gowns covered in lace/ribbons/frills/things that make you go "BLEAAAAHHH" and guys in funny-looking coats and stockings covered in frills/ribbons/lace/things that make you go "GAAAAAAAAY". Both sexes were wearing masks.
Understand now?
Good. On with the story.
So here I was, navigating my way through the crowd, searching for a glimpse of reddish-brown hair that had blonde highlights in it (interesting color-combination, no?).
"Lenaaaaaaa." I grumbled. "Where ARE you?" Dammit, don't leave me alone!"
I finally spotted the girl in question. She was standing in-between Tsuna and AU-Tsuna. AU-Tsuna appeared to be arguing with his other self.
"…Look, there's nothing wrong with me offering her this glass of wine, is there?" AU-Tsuna was saying.
"The point is that you shouldn't even have that with you, much less offer it to Lena-san!" Tsuna hissed.
"We are perfectly happy to accept that glass of wine, Tsuna-kun." Lena reached for the glass.
AU-Tsuna smirked in victory, and suddenly the whole area was filled with a blast of sexiness.
"Oh, hell no." I muttered. I slapped AU-Tsuna's hand and glared at him. "Excuse me, Your Hotness, but you are a minor and you're not supposed to have wine on you."
"Stop being such a square, Lillian." AU-Tsuna pouted. "A little alcohol never hurt anybody."
"Anyway, there's no time for this. We've got to go! The performance is about to start!" I grabbed Lena and Tsuna's hands and kicked AU-Tsuna. "Move it!"
On the stage in front of the ballroom, the lights dimmed.
"Ladies and gentlemen," a voice (Reborn's) boomed out. "Welcome to the highlight of the party – the performances!" The audience cheered. "So put your hands together for… 'Giotto and Pals'!"
…wait, what?
A giant Pikachu shuffled onto stage holding a microphone. Behind him, there was a giant Margikarp and Jigglypuff.
Then the giant Pikachu turned around and…
OH MY GOD THAT WAS GIOTTO IN A PIKACHU COSTUME.
Ewwww.
And was that… oh lord.
G in a Margikarp costume and Asari in a Jigglypuff costume.
What cruel, sick, twisted person came up with this?
Then Giotto began to sing.
"Fruit salad! Yummy yummy! Fruit salad! Yummy yummy!" He sand energetically, while G and Asari began shaking their butts in rhythm to the song.
At that point, I fainted. Meanwhile, the show continued. Giotto continued singing enthusiastically. "Delicious fruit salad is the best!"
"Yummy! Yummy!" G and Asari chorused behind him.
Tsuna giggled nervously.
AU-Tsuna rolled his eyes.
Lena's eyes turned a dangerous blackish-purple color as she stared at the stage.
"FRUIT SALAD FTW~!" Giotto screamed before running off the stage. G and Asari followed.
Reborn's voice boomed out again. Next up, we have a play put up by Tsuna, AU-Tsuna, AU-Hibari, Dino, and others! Please put your hands together for this play titled "Story of Evil!"
The crowd applauded nervously.
"Now, bow before me!" AU-Tsuna, who had magically appeared on the stage shouted. He was wearing a yellow cape, and was the king of the Yellow Kingdom.
"Yes, my queen." Tsuna squeaked, kneeling before AU-Tsuna. He was wearing a yellow scarf, and was the servant to the evil Yellow King.
"It's 'my king', you lowly servant!" AU-Tsuna took out a carrot and bonked Tsuna on the head.
"Yes, King." Tsuna squeaked.
"Now, go prepare my tea! I want carrots and carrot juice!" AU-Tsuna aimed a flying kick at Tsuna's ass and sent him flying off the stage.
The audience sweatdropped.
The stage dimmed and then lit up again. The scene had changed to show forest scenery with AU-Hibari in a green dress. He was humming happily and throwing Hibird and Roll plushies all over the stage.
"Hey. Heyyyy" Dino charged up, waving a white hat, He tripped over a Hibird plushie and landed face first onto the ground.
AU-Hibari squealed and threw a calculator at Dino.
"Kyaaa! What're you doing?" AU-Hibari shrieked, gathering up his skirts and climbing up a styrofoam tree.
"I wanted to pass you this giant chocolate chip cookie!" Dino shouted, magically producing the cookie out of his white hat.
"Oh, arigato gosaimasu!" AU-Hibari jumped off the Styrofoam tree and grabbed the cookie before shoving it up his skirt.
"By the way, have you heard of the evil king of the Yellow Kingdom?" Dino whispered.
"Oh! You mean King Ts-…" AU-Hibari replied.
"Shhh!" You must never say his name out loud! His name is cursed! If you say it you'll grow carrots all over your body!"
"Then what do we call him?"
"We call him… That Guy In The Yellow Cape." Dino said in a low voice.
"Dun dun dunnnn!" Dramatic music played.
"That Guy In The Yellow Cape?" AU-Hibari repeated in shock.
"Dun dun dunnnn!" The music played again.
"Does that music play everytime we say that?"
Dino nodded.
On the stage, the scene changed again.
"HAHAHAHAHA!" AU-Tsuna laughed, riding through one of the towns of the Yellow Kingdom on his giant Carrotmobile. (note: this is the carrot version of the Batmobile) with Tsuna shivering behind him.
AU-Tsuna suddenly pulled out a huge bazooka and started shooting carrots at the townspeople.
"Aaaaaaaaah!" They screamed, dodging the flying carrots.
Tsuna squeaked. "K-king… don't you think you're going too far?"
"Silence, lowly servant!" AU-Tsuna snapped. "I'll randomly shoot carrots for no reason at all if I want to!"
"B-But, King…" Tsuna squeaked even higher.
"NO. MY FROG COLLECTION." Fran appeared suddenly.
"Hahahahaha!" Looks like I destroyed his frog collection!" AU-Tsuna laughed loudly and cruelly. Fran said in The Most Bored Voice In The Universe.
"We are very sorry!" Tsuna apologized to Fran.
"Boohoo. My frog collection. Sob sob. I shall get my revenge." Fran took off his red shoes and threw them at the Carrotmobile.
"How dare you injure my precious Carrotmobile!" AU-Tsuna shouted, before throwing a carrot grenade at Fran.
BOOM! The grenade hit Fran and blasted Fran's clothes off, leaving only his red underwear and socks on his body.
"Hahahahaha!" AU-Tsuna laughed, driving off. "All your carrots are belong to us!" He shouted randomly.
Scene-change again.
"HOW DARE YOU STEAL MY CRAYONS!" A random person wearing a green coat screamed.
"STEALING CRAYONS IS A CRIME BEYOND CRIMES! YOU SHALL NOW BE BOOTED OUT OF GREENTOWN!" A randomly old man with a green handkerchief pointed dramatically at AU-Hibari.
"I only wanted to see what the crayons tasted like!" AU-Hibari wailed, clutching at the skirts of his green dress.
"And what did they taste like?" Dino, who had been standing behind asked.
"Awful. Like wax, except even worse." AU-Hibari rolled his eyes.
"HOW DARE YOU! I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT MY CRAYONS ARE TOP-QUALITY!" Green-coat shouted.
"THAT DOES IT!" Green-handkerchief thundered. "YOU BOTH SHALL BE BOOTED OUT OF GREENTOWN FOR YOUR CRIMES!" He pulled out a green whistle and blew.
Immediately, all the people of Greentown took out their (green-colored) boots and threw them at AU-Hibari and Dino. They screamed and ran away.
After running several kilometers, they stopped, panting.
"So we've been booted out of Greentown, our home for the whole of our lives. Now what?" Dino fanned himself with his white hat.
"Um…" AU-Hibari took out the giant chocolate chip cookie from beneath his green dress and chewed on it in thought.
"Oh! I know!" Dino waved his white hat enthusiastically.
"What, what?" AU-Hibari demanded.
"We can become bar-top dancers!" Dino slapped his leg.
"What a fantastic idea!" AU-Hibari squealed.
"Let's get started right now!" Dino shouted, pulling on AU-Hibari's arm and dragging him towards the nearest convenient nightclub.
Scene-change.
"Kufufufufu~" Mukuro laughed, adjusting his blue crown. He fought his way out of the crowd of fangirls, stabbing them with his spear.
"Now, now, ladies… I'm busy right now, I don't have time to entertain you." So saying, Mukuro leapt onto a giant turtle and shouted: "Forward!"
With said pineapple using it like a horse, the giant turtle slowly moved forward.
The turtle slowly walked, with Mukuro riding ont op of it, until they reached a nightclub.
Loud rock music blared out of the nightclub as a black-haired teen danced on top of the bar, his skin-tight, thigh-length sparkling green dress shimmering in the disco lights. Beside him, Dino held out his white hat, collecting money from the customers.
Mukuro entered the nightclub elegantly, his blue crown shining on his head. He looked around the room and spotted AU-Hibari dancing on the bar-top.
Mukuro immediately pulled out a magical blue lasso and roped it around AU-Hibari, who was dragged off the bar-top. He reined in the lasso, dragging AU-Hibari into his embrace.
"My darling," he cooed. "Let's get married right away!"
AU-Hibari, whose dress was torn to bits, fell into Mukuro's arms and shrieked "Yes! It is love at first sight! I want to marry you, my prince!"
Mukuro adjusted his blue crown, slid a blue ring on AU-Hibari's ring finger, swept up AU-Hibari and carried off bride-style, while Dino ran behind them, showering them in flower petals which he had magically produced from his white hat.
Scene-change.
"Faster! Go faster!" AU-Tsuna twisted his yellow cape in his hands.
"I'm… going… as fast as I can!" Tsuna panted, sweating in his effort.
"Put it all in!" AU-Tsuna howled, clutching at Tsuna.
"I am! I am!"
"Ooooh… not so rough!" AU-Tsuna yelled as he felt his whole body jolt.
Tsuna sighed as he pulled the brake on the Carrotmobile. He turned and said: "If you want me to go faster, of course I'll have to put it all in!" He indicated his foot, which had jammed the accelerator pedal all the way in. "And if we go that fast, of course the ride's going to be rough!"
AU-Tsuna frowned, straightening his yellow cape. He had been jolted out of his seat due to the rough road trip. He climbed back into his seat and said tersely: "Just drive."
Tsuna sighed again, re-tying his yellow scarf around his neck. He started driving again, and eventually they pulled up to a nightclub.
Suddenly, a giant turtle came into view. On top of it was Mukuro, blue crown and all.
AU-Tsuna gasped. "It's him! It's the Blue Pineapple Prince!"
"Uhhh… okay." Tsuna scratched his head.
"He's so cool." AU-Tsuna sighed, acting like a love-sick puppy. "I'd give all the carrots in the world to be able to go out with him." He suddenly sat up and grabbed Tsuna by his scarf, practically strangling him. "Let's follow him!"
"Weren't we here so that we could pick up your order or carrot juice – WEEARGH!" Tsuna squawked, his tightened scarf cutting off his air supply.
Together, the two of them slipped into the nightclub. AU-Tsuna followed Mukuro while Tsuna stood in a corner.
Tsuna's attention was caught by the boy in the tight green dress dancing on top of the bar. The cute figure was encased in a fitting green material, the slim legs flashing in and out… Oh god, he was in love. Tsuna tugged on his yellow scarf.
But then…
Tsuna watched in horror and shock as Mukuro entered the room, grabbed the beauty in the green dress and swept off. It all happened so fast! Tsuna didn't even get a chance to say hi to AU-Hibari.
Tsuna stared as Mukuro and AU-Hibari climbed on top of the giant turtle and went off.
Then, all of a sudden, he felt someone tug on his yellow scarf. Tsuna turned around to see AU-Tsuna staring at him.
"King? What is it?"
"I have a job for you."
"What job, King?"
"Kill…"
"What?"
AU-Tsuna jabbed a finger at AU-Hibari, who was smiling and laughing with Mukuro on top of the giant turtle.
"Kill him."
A/N: So. I guess I need to explain some stuff.
VOCALOID FANS WHO KNOW AKUNO-P'S DAUGHTER OF EVIL SERIES (STORY OF EVIL) READ THIS:
If you haven't managed to figure out my oh-so-obvious clues about which KHR character is playing which Vocaloid character, here's a guide:
AU-Tsuna – playing the Daughter of Evil, Queen Riliane d'Lucifen Autriche (Kagamine Rin) COLOR THEME: YELLOW
Tsuna – playing the Servant of Evil, servant Allen Avadonia (Kagamine Len) COLOR THEME: YELLOW
AU-Hibari – playing the Daughter of Green, peasant girl Michaela (Hatsune Miku) COLOR THEME: GREEN
Dino – playing the Daughter of White, peasant girl Clarith (Yowane Haku) COLOR THEME: WHITE
Fran – playing the Daughter of Vengeance, warrior woman Germaine Avadonia (Meiko) COLOR THEME: RED
Mukuro – playing the Prince of Blue, Prince Kyle Marlon (Kaito) COLOR THEME: BLUE
I am NOT following the exact storyline of Akuno-P's (mothy) series, as that would make things waaaaay too complicated and serious (this is a humor and parody fic with crack in it, remember) so please don't tell me that the Daughter of Green never fell in love with the Prince of Blue, and that she actually loves the Daughter of White, and that the Servant of Evil is the Daughter of Vengeance's stepbrother blah blah blah. :) Thank you very much.
PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO IDEA WHAT VOCALOID IS, READ THIS:
