Xanxus sipped his drink, watching his second in command discuss with the brat from the main branch, knowing that he was not necessarily a guardian, but too important to lose. Tsunayoshi would have his head... or attempt to have his head.
"Listen, Squalo, I understand the Varia's standards but this isn't something we can do alone." the man argued, his hands pointing to the confidential information spread out on the coffee table.
"Ushishishi, who's exactly planning on going?" Belphegor asked from perch on the couch arm rest, sitting to the right of the brat, "I won't do anything with the damn guardians."
"Mou senpai, you hold such a grudge, that was like ten years ago," Fran drawled out from his seat beside Squalo, playing with illusions he had conjured up of dancing broccoli on top of the information.
Belphegor threw knives at the young boy's head, "Shut up, you weren't even there." he snarled.
The man looked calmly between the officers gathered in the office, "Good then, it will only be me and Kino from the main branch." He said with a hint of finality, his arms crossing across his chest.
"Kino?" Squalo asked thoughtfully, "You and him, we can work with." He murmured as he swatted the broccoli away to get a better look at the information.
The man looked to Xanxus, staring right into his deep amber eyes without fear, "What do you think, we would only need two of-"
An unrealistic pop and smoke interrupted them, and Xanxus' eye twitched, knowing exactly what this was.
Xanxus approached the smoke, ready to knock the teen that would appear out, but as he moved to hit the shadow in the smoke, the figure fell forward, and Xanxus had no choice but to catch him.
"Ushishishi!" Belphegor snickered as he rose from his seat, "The peasant looks so pathetic!"
Fran butted in, "How stupid are you senpai, he's obviously sick."
"Why you-"
And true to Fran's words, the teen that appeared was awfully pale and completely hot in Xanxus' arms. His eyes fluttered open and close repeated, his mouth moving without sound.
"VOOOOOOOOOOOOI!" Squalo yelled, hitting the two younger members on the head to shut them up, "Someone hurry up and tell Lussuria he has someone to heal!" At those words, Fran disappeared in a quick fade of purple flames and Belphegor took his time to gather the knives that Fran had left behind.
Xanxus grew angry and shot a blast of sky flames at the shark, "Shut up trash! You're too loud!" he barked, one arm still steady around the teen's lithe waist.
Squalo started to yell at him about being a shitty boss, but he ignored him and picked up the too light teen, "I can't believe you grow up to be who you are maggot." As if hearing Xanxus, the teen tried to punch him weakly, but he never made it close to his face. Or the rest of his body, which was a feat in it of itself with Xanxus basically carrying him.
Xanxus arrived at the infirmary with Squalo and Belphegor following, Lussuria and Fran already waiting for them. He laid the teen down on the white bed and Lussuria's eyes widened underneath his sunglasses, "My dear, Mamo-chan how did you become so sick?" He asked concerned, already seeing the seriousness of the illness that plagued the teen, "I'll treat you right away."
Lussuria began to do his work, quickly, knowing there was little to no time left.
"Who… are...you?" the teen asked out, weakly.
Squalo answered, "WE'RE THE VARIA, NONO'S PERSONAL ELITE ASSASSINATION SQUAD, DUMBASS!" he yelled, swinging his sword arm around.
The teen took a second to laugh, "Right, of course." he weakly responded, before passing out.
"Ne, senpai, do you think 선배 will remember that you called him a peasant?"
Belphegor felt a cold shiver go down his spine, "Ushishishi, I just remembered I had to go do something. Bye-bi!"
"What do you have to do?"
"Princely things!" Belphegor spat as he headed for the door, his footsteps only slightly faster and his strides only slightly bigger.
"Ha?" Fran asked dully, "But you're a fake prince."
"Ka-ching!"
"Itai-yo senpai."
"VOOOOOOOI SHUT UP!"
"Scum!"
"Get out! All of you are distracting me!"
A few minutes later, the man returned in the teen's place, pulling out a string of cards immediately, "Now I remember," he growled out angrily, "BELPHEGOR HOW DARE YOU CALL ME A PEASANT!" He yelled angrily, launching himself out the door with flame enhanced steps.
"Ah. There's another person who holds grudges from ten years ago."
Squalo sighed and facepalmed as he watched the man leave, "This is why we work so well with him and Kino."
Xanxus nodded mutely beside him, swirling his whiskey around.
