Yo! I don't own Hitman Reborn!
Thanks for reviewing chapter 9! Midirin, Kouyan, Queen of Vampires, and animelover78!
I have to apologize for not publishing yesterday. Curse my English assignment! But in any case, here we are!
Let's get it started!
Chapter 10: Reminiscing.
Yukime's POV
I can feel the breeze swept my hair, and it's unbelievably refreshing. Even the volume I of the tale of Hikaru Genji that sometimes people finds depressing, end up beautiful if you read it in the same situation as me. I'm resting in the shades of the tree, and enjoying a breeze while reading a book. Yep, a perfect scenery.
I stare to a locket which contains a reduced-to-small-resolution photograph of me, Charles, and a kind Oji-sama. Along with a ring I wore in my right middle finger, beside the Vongola Snow Ring. I sighed. The breeze returns with a cool voice.
"Yukime, get down."
I laughed. "Come on, Alaude. I'm enjoying the wind here." I stare to him. "Yeah, wind sure feels great when you're there. But, once you lose your balance you're doomed. Get down, now." He stretches his hand to capture me in case I fall. "Okay, okay." I jumped to a nearby branch and swing on the tree branch for a bit. Then safely lands.
He looked a little bit irritated.
Yeah, my… ummm, L-person is Alaude. I love him, and surprisingly, he loves me back. He's always irritated whenever I didn't use his kindness. I don't want to be a burden to him. "What brings you here, Alaude? Giotto-san said this place has been forgotten and no one comes here anymore." I asked. He petted my head. "I'm searching for you. I thought you'll be down because of…" He stopped.
He was talking about an accident I have with Demon Spade yesterday. I smiled. "I was just reminiscing, nothing else. I've forgiven him just so you know, Alaude." I explained. He looked irritated again. I always wonder how many scowls he could give in a day. "Who are you reminiscing about?" I'm glad he decided to drop the topic.
I show him the picture on my locket. "On the right is Oji-sama. That's me a year ago, and this is…" I blushed for a moment. Alaude wait patiently for my answer. "Charles…" He nods. I stare to the picture affectionately. "Was he your first?" Alaude asked in the usual coolly tone.
I almost choke myself. FIRST? FIRST WHAT? I falsify them to a cough. "Pardon me?" I asked innocently. "First love, of course." GOSH ALAUDE! YOUR TENDENCY OF BLURTING OUT EVERYTHING IN COOLLY TONE ARE SERIOUSLY MAKING ME DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO HERE! I took a deep breath and smiles. "Yeah…"
"It's passed though. I never met him again. He saw me dancing and he said it was cool, not the usual suck-up people that know I'm Asari Yukime would say." I lean on him closer. He gently pulls me backwards and we sat on a picnic carpet that I prepare earlier. The earth shook for a little and my book fell down from the tree.
"Don't use that flame, I don't like them." He ordered. "As you say, Mr. Cloud Guardian." I playfully tease him. Here we are seating in a very fine weather with a picnic basket, what will we call this…? Oh right I can find an appropriate sentence.
Alaude and I, we're on a date.
Giotto's POV
I'm in the lounge with my three Guardians. Lampo, Demon Spade, and Knuckle. Knuckle's in front of the mirror, practicing his speech for the church gathering five days from now. Even though I didn't really get what he said, people that'll hear him will most likely burst to tears if they understand bible or things like that.
Lampo is also in front of the mirror, dressing nicely and convincing himself for… I dunno one millionth times, that he looked fabulous. Demon Spade is reading a book about 'Vito Corleone' and will sometimes laugh with his usual Ku fu fu fu laugh. My three, no, four other Guardians are outside. Ugetsu and G are having times of their lives. Fighting (G is the one who normally brought this up) about whose fighting range are advantageous to the Famiglia.
As for Alaude and Yukime… they're having a date by now. My Snow Guardian woke up early, cooked our breakfast (this one is actually unnecessary. But, I gotta admit her cooking skills have surpassed our second-class Chefs and on par with the first class), and went outside. Then, Alaude catches up to her. I liked watching my Guardians, because they're… my precious ones. They make me feel happy or entertain me whenever I'm bored.
"Come on, let's head for Venice."
My Guardians looked at me like I was some sort of a sudden thunder. "What are we doing there, Primo?" Asked Lampo. I stare meaningfully to Knuckle. "Oh, yeah! I have something I extremely needs to do at church." Demon Spade closes his book and chuckled. "Ku fu fu fu, I will go too. There are things I need to do." Lampo knows that he had lost the fight.
"Settled, call the other Guardians Lampo."
"Can't say no to you Primo…"
Lampo's POV
Why is the great me have to call the other Guardians while they're having the time of their lives? The first one I found is Ugetsu-san, he's having fun with G-san and doesn't seem to pay any notice to the great me. Gee, what a morons, the uber fabulous me is entering the scene yet they did not realize. "Your sword can't do you anything from this distance! I won! Boom Sonico di Tempesta! Sonicboom of Storm!"
I ducked to avoid his flame attack. Ugetsu-san suddenly stands in front of me. "Yo! Lampo! Sorry, but be still okay? I'll end this quick." He dropped the Katana and kicked it to G-san's direction. "Yarazu no Ame!" It hit G-san's sonicboom and the rain flames tranquil the sonicboom. "I won again, G. Now, let's go to boss' place." He stares to me.
"Yeah. We're heading for Venice. Boss' order."
"Shoot! That Giotto! I always told him not to suddenly impose unreasonable whims to everyone!"
G-san immediately left and Ugetsu-san followed him. The next ones are Alaude-san and Yukime-chan. I like Yukime-chan a lot. But, Alaude-san will bind me to death if I said anything weird. "Haaah, why the great me have to do all of this? A King like me!"
I finally found both of them. Alaude is carrying her, bridal style, while kissing her cheek. She looks towards me and waved. "Who on earth is-?" I hide behind the pillar. "Alaude… it's Lampo-senpai." Great goodness. She called me, the former youngest Guardian, -senpai! "What do you want with us?" Alaude-san asked with a fury tone concealed in it his coolly one.
"We're heading for Venice. Boss' order."
I replied what I said to the other Guardians and they nod. "Okay!" She jumped from Alaude-san's embrace. "Let's go, Alaude!"
And so, all of us go to Venice.
*Spazio HQ*
"Come on Carlos! Please~~~?"
"I already told you, Aureliana… no!"
"Please, Carlos… I wanted to buy some nourishment and a new whip for my new toys…"
"For Lord Hades' sake Claire! You're still into those pickpockets? It's still a no!"
"Come on chill out Carlos… it's not bad to go to town sometimes… right?"
"Listen to Antonio, Carlos! A pre-sale tickets and merchandise of Distruzione! please…."
All of them did the puppy dogs eyes.
"Okay fine! But, I'll also come to make sure you guys didn't make a mess!"
"You're the best Carlos!"
And so, all of them go to Venice.
*Arrived at Venice*
Yukime's POV
All of us get off the carriage. "I'm buying pre-sale tickets to Distruzione! band." Lampo rushed to the crowds. "Ku fu fu fu , I'll be heading to the bookstore." Then, he left, shrouded in mist. "I'm extremely going to church." Knuckle ran to the church. Giotto went for coffee. I stare to Alaude. "I'm grabbing the coffee with Primo. Use Chay if anything happens." Chay perched on my shoulder.
I smile and waves to them. I immediately ran to an Opera House that already attracts my attention from the first day here. I stare to it excitedly. Suddenly, a wind breeze, I look to a tree near the Opera House. A man was standing there. It perked my interest and I approach him. Just my luck, a puddle of water made me slip. That man helped me.
"Are you alright, Signorina?" He asked. I really don't want to lift my face of the embarrassment. After a couple of second staring to the ground, I lift my head. "I'm alright, thank you very much, Signor-!"
I was dumbstruck the moment I saw his face, apparently, he did the same too.
"Charles!"
"Dancing Maiden!"
Both of us stare each other in confusion.
Yeeey! It finished! Please review~~~! L-person is lover. I think it's kinda cute when Yukime and Ugetsu have a trouble saying the word lover. That's all I guess. Bye-bee~!
