New Chapter! And please check my poll! (Good lord, I saw Gone and I am so fucking high! I loved it!)
Also, please review, I'm kind of worried whether or not my latest chapters are publishing correctly…
Luche: Reality doesn't own us, desu~
Rainbow High School 10
Luche sat on her bed as she felt life squirm in her abdomen. She had no idea whether or not she should smile or break down crying. Cosmo sat on her lap, worrying about her master.
"Ne, it's alright Cosmo~ I'm just feeling a little confused." Luche told her partner. Her smile wasn't as bright, though.
A shrill cry broke through the almost peaceful silence.
"How the hell did you get in here? Get the fuck out, Viper is next door!" Lal screamed out.
"Mah, mah, Lal-chan, we just made a mistake~" A Varia sun guardian said, only to be kicked in the face with a steel toed boot.
"VOOOIIIII! YOU DAMN ILLUSIONIST, WE HAVE AN URGENT MEETING THIS MORNING!"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU DAMN SHARK, ITS TOO FREAKING EARLY TO DEAL WITH YOU AND YOUR FUCKING UGLY MUG—Bel, don't you dare say a freaking word!" The normally reserve Mist user shouted out at the top of her lungs, gaining attention from the dorm before slamming her window shut and promptly conjuring an illusion to transfer her room and herself away.
Luche could practically hear Squalo and Bel crawl into a corner of sulking rage.
Luche couldn't help but smile and laugh fully then and there. Her family of rag tag students called the Arcobaleno sure was lively in the morning.
At School:
Luche walked to her second period class and a fellow second year bumped into her. "Get out of my way, cow!"
Luche had to hold Reborn's hand down as she saw his fingers twitch towards his hip, where no doubt, there was a USP there and loaded.
"Oi, her and Reborn are pretty close, ne?"
"Do you think Reborn is the one who got her pregnant?"
"I wouldn't be surprised; I bet that girl would open her legs for any guy."
Reborn twitched. "Oi Luche; two minutes, I promise not to shoot them, just rough them up a little."
Luche saw the twitch of his lips; that was a sign that he was surely and undeniably lying.
"No; don't let the normal students know who we're involved with." Luche murmured with a smile on her face.
Reborn 'tched' but complied nonetheless.
It was only three periods later when four girls pushed Luche into a bathroom with glaring eyes though.
"Oi, bitch, we don't know what kind of whore you are, but don't go hanging around Reborn-sama like that!"
"Yeah, I don't get it; even if you're Arcobaleno, that doesn't change the fact that you're pregnant!"
"Know your place, you disrespecting cow!"
Insults were thrown and kicks were aimed. If these girls were highly trained Mafioso like the Varia, Luche would have no problems swatting them away like the flies that they were.
However, these girls were just the average high school bitch; they knew nothing about the black world that Luche faced. So she just turned around as they kicked her, so they wouldn't hit the life inside her. It didn't matter that the other half of its DNA was worse than scum; the child can't help what the so-called 'father' did.
Luche would not let this child die out of pure malice for what the man who made it did.
"This damn cockroach won't die!"
"Maybe this will then!"
Luche saw it in the reflection of the glass mirror.
A knife; a simple knife that could've been stolen from the Home Economics class, but could still cause damage.
Her back was turned.
She would not be able to block it in time.
"Oi; I don't appreciate you poor excuse of human beings trying to hurt my Sky." A voice said, followed by the sound of a customized USP being cocked back and a shell hitting the floor in a check to see the amount of bullets within the weapon. "I'm giving you two seconds to leave before I blow your tits off."
The girls scrambled out of the bathroom, dropping the stolen knife.
"Luche. Are you alright?" Reborn asked, pocketing his gun. Luche gave a smile and nodded.
"Luche. I know that you smile your brightest whenever you're happy, but this isn't good. The little brat is more trouble than it's worth and it hasn't even been born yet. Viper is going to do another Thoughtography today after school to find the fucking bastard. It's just that… Luche, you don't deserve this."
Luche frowned sadly. "I know… But still; this child is mine and although I would rather have the father dead in a ditch, it can't help how it was born."
Reborn stared as she continued.
"Reborn… This child is mine and no matter who the father is, I can't help that everybody deserves a chance. Even though it'd be easier for me to get an abortion, I would be killing a life that hasn't even opened its eyes yet." Luche said. Her voice quivered at the end and tears began to flow.
"Luche," Reborn said. "I know. It would be cruel to get an abortion. But I'm worried about your sake. How will this brat live if you endure this? If I wasn't here, both you and that baby would've died!" Reborn pointed out.
Luche flinched and wiped away her tears. "Reborn… I'm just scared and confused right now…"
Reborn stepped forward and pat her on the head. Luche stopped crying.
It was Reborn's strict policy to never, unless under the circumstances of an assassination, to touch anybody else in a way other than violently.
To pat someone on the head was like Reborn's form of a vice grip hug.
Luche looked up and Reborn and smiled again. She could honestly say that this time, the smile was real.
High School Principal's Office:
"So, you three threatened Luche, the adopted daughter of the headmaster with a knife stolen from the Home Economics room?"
"It wasn't only us! Reborn-sama had a gun on him!"
"Is this true?"
"This is the only gun I have." Reborn said, holding up his iPhone 4S with the Gun App open. After a few clicking, he opened a USP with a green skin (Verde's personal hacking secret) and fired a few rounds at the ceiling. The girls looked positively dumbstruck.
"I only used the noise on this to scare the girls away when they were about to stab Luche." Reborn explained.
"I see." The principal with his white moustache said before turning to the girls. "Do you have anything to say before I expel you from this school?"
The girls pouted and Luche looked slightly relieved.
Meanwhile, outside the door, the Arcobaleno smirked and agreed to jump those girls later. Nobody dared to fight their Sky and walked away alive.
After School:
Viper walked into the dorms, completely exhausted. "God, I hate the Varia."
The entire Arcobaleno gathered in the den and handed Viper some paper. Viper went through the process of sneezing the whereabouts of a certain fucktwit into the sheet.
Viper smirked. "The douche is returning to us. It's slow, but he's returning alright; I'm guessing that in a couple of days, we'll get to kill the fucker."
"Oi, we're not going to kill him, kora; we're going to torture him slowly and painfully, kora!"
Verde's eyes glinted. "Well, I suppose I could go through some files and retrieve certain methods. I heard that there was a way to remove vital organs while still keeping the person alive."
"Cool it, sempai. We're all going to have our turn with him." Skull said, completely out of character.
"Viper, so he's returning; is anyone else with him?" Lal asked. Viper shook his head.
"He's too cocky. He thinks he can take us all on. The bastard obviously doesn't know how hard we've trained while he was away." Viper growled out. "He's going to die."
"Now, now everybody, keep calm about this; getting riled up is a way to get killed."
"That's true, Fon," Reborn said. "But the adrenaline rush is so strong you don't need a cool head when it comes down to it."
"Alright then. Arcobaleno, this may be our most important kill yet, it's one that must be carried out with all cruelty. Leave your humanity at home when this goes down unless it involves killing techniques; all you need is barbaric human instincts." Reborn said coldly.
Three Days Later:
At a private airport, a man stepped out of a plane wearing a white suit. He had long, slightly spiky black hair tied into a ponytail.
This man was their target. He was the bastard man that supplied the Estraneo Famiglia, the lying head of the Sacrificio Famiglia, and most importantly,
Reborn's father.
And the hitman would go through great lengths to kill the savage bastard. The man had taught him everything he knew, but Reborn was the one that was named the strongest hitman.
'He is unguarded. Only one pistol as far as I can see. I'm searching through his head right now—wait, there's an alarm strapped to his arm; this means that any head on fighting, and he'll set it off. Is everybody in their stations?' Viper asked all of them through telekinesis.
Everybody thought back their responses. Viper held up an illusion to hide their appearances and Fon would keep the real assistants and attendants unconscious for the entire mission until the Vongola came to take them in, some to wipe their memories of the event.
Reborn looked at his father with malice while his fake brunette face was all smiles.
"It's good to see you again, Fernando, how was your visit to the States?" Reborn said in a fake voice as Viper instructed to him, still roaming in his father's mind.
Reborn's mission now was to wait until he removed the alarm; then he would move in for the kill.
Meanwhile, Verde would release several particles nearby him while serving him snacks that would dull Fernando's senses slightly, eventually knocking him unconscious. Colonello and Lal would view the alarm from a distance and shoot it off, seemingly from a different Famiglia. Skull would drive the getaway Ferrari to an abandoned area where Luche would wait.
After that went down, the Arcobaleno would all take their sweet time beating the shit out of him.
Viper relayed the plan and waited for anyone to object or complain. The only one she got was 'I call the first hit, kora.'
'That's for Luche, Colonello.'
'And after that is Reborn.'
'No, I'll take the last hit,' the hitman said. 'I want to be the one to kill him.'
'Fine, Colonello gets the second hit.' Viper said irritably. 'Now all of you shut the hell up, you're giving me all a headache. Focus on your mission.'
"Hello, Sacrificio Ottavo, would you care for a treat?" A disguised Verde asked, with brown hair and green eyes. By the subtlest movements, Reborn could tell he was spreading his special toxins in the air around them now. It didn't affect the Arcobaleno, who were vaccinated beforehand.
Fernando shook his head. "No thank you."
"I see. Arrivederci." Verde drawled out.
Those thirty seconds of conversation would've given Verde enough time to spread toxins in the air that would knock out Fernando in ten minutes tops.
"Now, Daniel, how was the Famiglia while I was gone—"
The man was interrupted as gunshots went off and honed in on his arm. A small explosion signaled the destruction of the alarm.
"Come, Fernando, we must hurry. Step on it, Gabriel!" Reborn shouted to Skull, Viper sending him the names from Fernando's head.
With several more bullets for effect, Lal and Colonello completed their mission. They ran out to the meeting place where the torture would commence.
Fernando watched the scenery pass curiously. "I don't remember this location, Daniel."
"It's newly found. We found a dealer's house and killed him; this open land was what awaited us." Reborn replied. This was not a lie. The Sacrificio Famiglia brutally murdered a Vongola info broker and his family in their own home. This land was technically part of the Sacrificio Famiglia, but it wouldn't matter because Luche made sure that none of their members were there.
Fernando nodded before resting a hand on his head. "My, my, I'm feeling quite lightheaded." A yawn. "Wake me once we reach the house."
"Yes, Fernando." Reborn responded, adding 'in the most painful way possible' in his own head.
Everything after this point may or may not be appropriate for readers. Skip until you see a second notice that is BOLD, UNDERLINED, AND ITALICIZED like this one.
When Fernando woke up, it was by a mallet to the gut. "Guh! What the hell?"
The man was strapped tightly to a table with his shoes and pistol removed. They were all in an abandoned shed where the family that the Sacrificio Famiglia killed once lived in.
"Do you remember me?" Luche asked, clutching her mallet in tight fists. The Arcobaleno stood behind her, glaring at the man. Fernando then remembered.
"Ah, the principessa of the Arcobaleno. I remember you. I remember all of you. Heh, and you remember me; just look down at your baby bump, principessa—"
Luche smashed the man's ribs. Fernando choked and spat out blood. He continued to gurgle pathetically as Luche continued to smash the rapist in front of her.
"You be quiet!" SMASH! "Do you know what you put us through?" SMASH! "Even the Vendice are approving this due to your crimes!" SMASH! "Everybody you know is subjected to pain and suffering because of you!" SMASH! "What you did to me, to Reborn, to everyone!" SMASH! "You are nothing but a cruel bastard!"
With one last hit, Luche turned and dropped her mallet. She smiled. "I think I feel a little better now."
Fernando was beginning to choke on his own steady flow of blood. Verde smirked.
"Reborn, heal that piece of shit up or else he won't live for your turn."
Reborn complied, albeit reluctantly.
"Reborn. Do you still hold a grudge about what happened to your mother?" The man asked. He was met with a rock hard fist in the face and spat out a tooth.
"Yes. That and what you did you Luche, do you know that she was almost killed today because of what you did?" Reborn hissed at the man that lost his title as a father.
"So? The little whore enjoyed it—"
Colonello fired a round at his right foot. He screamed. "Move, kora. I promise not to hit any vital spots and kill him head on, kora."
Reborn smirked sadistically. "Go right ahead. Fill him with holes for all I care."
"Gladly, kora."
Another bullet. This time in the upper thigh.
Colonello put his precision firing to use. He used every bullet he brought with him. He aimed at the legs, the arms, even fired a round in every finger and three in each palm. Fernando was screaming, panting, and blood was splattered everywhere.
Colonello cocked back his gun to aim for the crotch "This is the big one, kora." When Colonello shot it, however, he was mildly disappointed to find that he was out of bullets. "Damn, kora."
"Heal him, Reborn. It's my turn now." Viper said, standing up from her meditation.
"Oh, the little illusionist? What can you do?" Fernando asked pointedly once Reborn was done.
Viper glared. She removed her hood.
There was a reason that Viper wore her hood; the fabric was made specially to hold in all her psychic powers. When she went all out, she removed the fabric as a last resort. He eyes were her greatest prowess. The fact that she took off her hood for a torture session meant that things were going to get ugly. Daemon's Devil Lens was powerful, but they had nothing on the strength of Viper's pupils.
"Reborn, stand nearby, I can't promise he'll survive this without constant healing." Viper said, a ringing sound resonating through everybody's head. "Viper Mirage R: if anybody screams, they will feel true pain."
Viper summoned several large Uroboros and had them maul the man in question. It might've been an illusion, but he could feel his limbs being torn apart and shredded. The Uroboros didn't bite, they shredded into ribbons. Fernando screamed louder as he felt the pain increase by every octave that his voice raised. Viper illusioned the creatures away. "Let's take a trip to the past, ne?~" The girl asked with an evil smile.
The scene changed to a lab. The Arcobaleno recognized this as the Estraneo Famiglia's lab. "Do you know how many children were killed by the Famiglia you funded in this room? Allow me to show you."
Tubes and syringes surrounded him. Chemicals and acids were inserted, unnecessary organs were removed without painkillers and Fernando continued to break Viper's rule.
"Oi, snake, it's my turn." Lal called out. Viper frowned but deleted her illusion. Fernando panted unevenly and his eyes looked bloodshot. Lal walked forward and dropped her gun on the floor.
"You're a dead bastard." Lal only said. She walked over to the table and broke Fernando's shin with a crunch. The man groaned painfully and Lal continued. She broke his fingers one by one, and went to his arm where she twisted the limb painfully at the elbow. She broke his nose, other arm, and multiple ribs. Afterwards, she stood on the table he was tied to. "This is for Luche."
Lal jumped up with a flip and landed squarely on the man's testicles. If Viper's Mirage R was still up, Fernando would've fainted of pain by now.
"Oi, catch, kora!" Colonello shouted, tossing Lal her gun. Lal aimed her gun where all the broken bones were. At five bullets, Reborn stopped her.
"If this goes on, I'll never be able to kill him." Reborn said. "You guys will all beat me to it."
Reborn healed Fernando and added a smirk at Fon. "You're up."
Fon pushed the table so that it was right side up and Fernando was upside down. He only needed one move and pass the baton on to Verde. "Exploding Gale Fist."
Getting into his martial arts stance and executing his invincible fighting style, Fernando was left with broken bones, internal bleeding, and several bruises.
Reborn smirked while flicking Sun Flames at Fernando. "I always liked you Fon, simple and to the point. Verde, go ahead."
"Well, I didn't know that Albert Einstein was reborn." Fernando smirked at the scientist. Verde glared harshly and moved into a foreign position.
"What are you doing ballet?—"
"Electrico Thunder." Verde said as green lightning illuminated the room after about twenty seconds, the smell of burnt flesh welcomed the Arcobaleno.
"Go ahead, Skull. If I do it any longer, he'll die and Reborn will go on a rampage." Verde told Skull, who took out a tank.
Colonello whistled. "Damn, kora. What the hell have you been feeding your pet?"
Skull shrugged and moved his fingers in specific movements. Oodaku, who grew significantly from the time he was bought, immediately crawled towards Fernando and squeezed the man until his limbs turned purple. Skull made a fist and Oodaku squeezed even tighter.
Reborn smirked "Maybe you aren't such a useless lackey after all."
"You think so, Reborn-san?"
"I said maybe." Reborn said, pushing Skull's hand down. Oodaku stopped and returned to his tank. "Now, it's my turn. And this time, you're going to die."
Reborn stomped the man's body. The abused rib bones shattered and Fernando coughed out blood. Reborn took out a knife and put it completely vertical before dragging it through the man's skin. Deep cuts marred his chest.
Reborn broke every bone with practiced skill; hit every important vein and artery with bullets, stomped on the most painful pressure points, dripped alkali acid on him, and made it so he felt pure, unsaturated hell before dying.
VIOLENT SCENES ARE OVER VIOLENT SCENES ARE OVER VIOLENT SCENES ARE OVER
Reborn stopped and turned around. "Let's let him bleed it out. He's got only two minutes as far as I can see, anyway."
The Arcobaleno all stood up and left, blood staining their clothes, but unlike most of their missions, they felt unusually lighter than before.
"Ne, everybody," Luche said cheerily, "Arigato!"
The Arcobaleno knew that this kill was worth it. To see their bright Sky was all they wanted and the bastard that darkened their sky would die.
Now, all that was left to survive was high school. Oh joy.
