Third Person POV
...
Everyone stared at the dead girl standing by the dining hall doorway, the smile on her lips never leaving as she slowly approached Yui with jerky steps. Slowly kneeling down she examined her neck for a moment. "I don't think you'll die...Yet."
The words snapped everyone out the hypnotizing spell they happened to be under. Reiji straightened up and stared down at the girl. "You're dead."
The girl grinned and set her hands on her hips. "All those times I was reading zombie killing manuals I never thought it'd apply to me!"
Zombies...And the girl was dead, did that mean? Yui scrambled up and thrust a hand through the image, the feeling of cold water dripping over her skin sending goosebumps up her arms. "It worked?"
"Once again Bitch-chan has something to do with forbidden things," Laito mused. "I think you should finish punishing her."
"W-why though, this benefits you as much as it does me!"
"But you wouldn't have known about her if you kept to the rules." Kanato said with a twisted grin, eager to see the girl's blood spill.
Tsuna shook her head. "You're an idiot, you should do your best to avoid breaking rules and stuff here, or do you want to end up like me?"
No she didn't. That was the whole point of calling her up, so that she could learn from the past to be able to live in the future. But now that she saw Tsuna 'alive' and well she couldn't help but feel rebellious, casting off all the rules of the corrupt household.
"Tsuna," Yui all but shouted. "I have no idea who you are, but I called you to this plane to tell me what to do."
"Why?"
"She wants to leave," Subaru said. "why else? But going to answers from someone clearly dead was stupid of you."
She flushed a dark red. "I only did it since she seemed close to you all, at least that's how it sounded from the notes, diary entries, and your reactions to my finding out about her."
"This isn't about how it benefits us or if we care about a human, but about your disobedience and rude comments." Reiji pushed up his glasses and came towards Yui. "It also applies to the fact you opened up a doorway that you obviously haven't closed properly."
"You're right," She straightened up and stared the man down. "this is about you all being reminded of someone you legitametly cared about, and not liking that fact." She gazed over all of them. "You all missed Tsuna, admit it."
As the words fell from Yui's mouth and shattered into the air she could feel the tension tighten and wrap around her neck to kill her. But she didn't care, every word was true and she wasn't about to deny it. For far too long she had denied saying the truth to these sadistic creatures and now it was time they had a reality check.
And yet she couldn't help but feel like she was being cruel. The nearly hovering Tsuna was little more than an image of decay and 'could have been', nothing about her was alive, even her round voice had a whispering and muffled tone to it. But as Yui stared at the girl she noticed something rather distinct about the decaying face, there was a peaceful expression on it.
"Tsuna-san?"
The girl's hollow eyes turned to stare at the blonde. "Thank you, Yui...I think I finally see it now...How much they care..."
As the last words whispered from her mouth she slowly faded away.
...
A/N: I know this is short and not a strong ending, but it's not really meant to be. This whole story was about Yui coming out of her shell, not Tsuna and her relationship with the Sakamaki brothers.
Speaking of which we now come to a crossroads, what do you all want to see next? Would you like to see the 'canon' prequel as to what happened before Yui. A 'what if' story that features Tsuna being a ghost the entire time Yui is at the mansion. A 'what if' story that has Tsuna living past her expiration date and coming upon the 'awakening'. So choose one via review or PM, or don't and let me decide, your choice.
