Mars: Ahahaha! I'm back! And the con was absolutely fun! You should have been there! ... No wait... You would have been pounced by fangirls who would have thought you were a really good cosplayer.... Who looked like the real thing, even though you are the real thing which would have been really weird to talk about... Anyway... How's your fine day today, my violent friend?
Kyouya: ...
Mars: Don't look so glum! You must have missed me!
Kyouya: ... No...
Mars: Meanie! Bleh!
Kyouya: ...
Mars: ...
Kyouya: ...
Mars: ... This isn't fun...
Kyouya: ...
Mars: Please don't ignore me...
Kyouya: ...
Mars: ... I love you?
Kyouya: ... *snorts*
Mars: Ha! A reaction!
Kyouya: ...
Mars: Fuck...
Kyouya: ... Language...
Mars: But you aren't talking to me!... Hey, you spoke!
Kyouya: *scoffs* Late much? You left me in this small room for 2 weeks... You should have just let me leave...
Mars: You're pouting because of that?! This room isn't even small! It's like a freaking hotel suite! The biggest in fact! Probably! I don't know! And I left you in here because you would have not come back! Also... You did know that the door wasn't locked... Right?
Kyouya: *shrugs* I've seen bigger... And I'm not pouting. And yes, I would have left... And I didn't check to see if the door was locked.
Mars: ... *eye twitched* The fudge?... *eye twitched again*
Kyouya: ... Since she's traumatized by hotel suites being bigger than the biggest she has seen and the fact I didn't check to see if the door was locked or not (which i should have done), she doesn't own any KHR characters (thank god) because Amano Akira does. She only owns the onna (Tsubasa), this stupid story, and the random characters that will randomly pop up out of no where. And baka herbivore here says that she is sorry for the stupid idiots swearing in here.
Mars: ... *still traumatized*
Kyouya: *sigh* ... Why aren't I getting paid for this?
Mars: ... 'Cause you love me so much you would do it for free?? Please?
Kyouya: Nope...
Mars: Don't be like Mammon! I can't pay anyone anything! I'm broke! I don't have enough money to pay anyone even 10 bucks! And I still owe my friend 8 bucks! Damn... Should have haggled with the lady.
Kyouya: ... Che!...
Mars: I'm sorry~!! *T.T* I still love you... Will you accept that?
Kyouya: ... Hell no... Stupid herbivore.
Ch.12 A Fight and a Stray Bullet! What's changed? (Tsuna's POV)
I sighed with relief. But I was also curious as to why she said "no". No one that I know of had ever said "no" to Reborn and got away without a scratch… No wait. No one that I know of had ever said "no" to Reborn at all… It's like you just can't say "no" to him and Tsubasa-san may have proved the impossible possible! If she can stick with it to the end, unlike me who says "no" but is forced into doing whatever stupid idea Reborn has anyway. Ahh... Sucks to be me...
Reborn just stared at her, no wait, glared at her. It was as if he was daring her to say "no" to his face again. I saw her gulp, probably trying to fight nervousness after saying "no" to someone she idolizes which slightly creeps me out. I can't see people worshipping Reborn at all- no wait!… I just did… Dang it! Now I'm going to probably be scarred for life by that disturbing, yet, for some reason, possible image. I shuddered slightly from the image.
Tsubasa-san finally spoke after a while. Her tone was monotone, icy, and almost too polite for perfection which scared the hell out of me."Reborn-sama… You have read my file have you not? Surely you must know why I cannot accept your proposal. My ways are different than most informants, but practically the same as regular informants of the mafia… Or any kind of informant for that matter."
I was confused by what she had said. I hadn't read all of her file -which Reborn had probably stolen- yet. She continued on with her short speech to Reborn. "But… That does not mean I will not stoop so low and break the oath I had taken before I had even become an informant of the mafia. I could never ever break any promise or oath that I swore to keep. That is just how I roll Reborn-sama. If I was exempted from that oath I had taken, then maybe, just maybe Reborn-sama, I will consider joining the Vongola famgila. There is no guarantee that I will be exempted from the oath though."
All that was heard after she finished speaking was silence. It didn't feel like a good silence though. It felt choked… Stuffed… Heavy… Just a really, really, bad atmosphere! It feels as if I can't breathe and if I did I would be poisoned and die instantly. That's how bad the atmosphere was.
I looked at everyone… Bianchi had her face shadowed by her hair so I couldn't tell what she was thinking. Reborn just stared at her looking… Amused for some reason. Gokudera-kun's eyes were hard like glass and you couldn't tell what he was thinking either. I bit my lip slightly. Gokudera-kun looked like he's taking in this new information hard. Especially since this is all about Tsubasa-san who says they are childhood friends.
I looked away from him to Yamamoto, onii-san, and Lambo who were all standing close to each other. They all looked confused, but only Yamamoto and onii-san looked as if they knew that whatever Tsubasa-san was talking about was serious. I then looked at Hibari-san and for some reason he looked like he was listening carefully to what we were talking about. He also looked slightly amused which kind of put me off. I hope he doesn't try to kill her... Again.
After a long time,or what felt like a long time, Reborn finally spoke. "I know… But… Would you truly give up the chance to be part of a famous famiglia?"
She flinched slightly and closed her eyes.
He spoke again. "Would you truly give up the chance to join a famiglia that you have friends in?"
She flinched once again and tilted her head down.
"Would you truly give up the chance to join the famiglia you were meant to join from since you were born?"
This time she looked up at him. Her eyes held shock and confusion in them. She asked in anger and confusion. "What are you talking about?! I wasn't even born into a mafia famiglia! My mother was a servant of father's famiglia! Other than that she had no other relations in the mafia world! She didn't even know that father even part of the mafia! There is no way I was born into this world fated to join your famiglia!"
"Shut up..." Gokudera-kun's voice was suddenly heard. We all looked in his direction.
He sounded menacing and venom dripped from his voice. I saw that his hair shadowed over his eyes which made it really hard to see his expression. He suddenly walked up to her and grabbed the collar of her shirt. When he finally looked up her, his eyes held mixed emotions like he didn't know how to process all these new things he learned about her. Her eyes had hardened to look glassy. Tsubasa-san looked really sad, but I didn't know what for. I decided to stay quiet for the time being until I heard the whole story.
Gokudera-kun spoke again. "Don't you dare call him 'father'… That sick lowlife doesn't deserve to be called anything other than 'bastard'!"
Tsubasa-san sighed. "Hayato… You're still a spoiled brat?" She glared at him making him stiffen. "You can't tell me what or what not to do! I can't believe you're still holding that grudge against him! (1) Didn't Bianchi tell you what really happened?!"
She looks over to Bianchi and Gokudera-kun does the same. Since Bianchi didn't have anything to cover her face, he fainted and fell flatly on his face. Tsubasa-san sweatdrops and mutters quite loudly (2) for a mutter. "Why don't you hurry up and cure that stupid curse of yours…"
I didn't understand why she called it a curse, but it seems I was the only one who heard her say that. I also wondered how Gokudera-kun wouldn't have noticed Bianchi in the first place. She turned to look at Reborn again. "I don't understand, Reborn-sama... How was I fated since birth to join the Vongola? I… Before my mother had… How should I put this… My mother and I… We aren't related to each other at all."
I gasped at this. I looked at Reborn who smirked slightly. I sweatdropped as I knew he was up to something… Though what it is I don't know. Everyone else looked just as shocked as I was, except for Bianchi, Hibari-san, and Lambo. Bianchi because she probably already knew since they grew up in the same household, Hibari-san because he is indifferent to most things (which causes me to wonder what he's still doing here), and Lambo because he's a kid who doesn't understand anything yet.
"What do you mean to the EXTREME?!" Onii-san shouted in bewilderment.
She looked slightly annoyed by his shouting, but she ignored it. "I mean… My mother had found me in the woods close to the house because she had heard my cries. I don't know who my birth parents are."
"... I don't get it to the EXTREME!" He shouted again. I sweadropped on how slow he can be.
She rubbed her temples in frustration. "It means I was left there in the woods from when I was less than a year old to rot, you imbecile!"
I sweatdropped even more from her blunt and harsh answer. I couldn't believe anyone would leave a child, much less a baby alone in the woods. Or alone anywhere for that matter! What had happened to her was cruel and unforgivable but what's done is done. Nothing can be done about what happened to her because it is all in the past. I still couldn't believe someone wold be so cruel as to leave her alone to die.
This time Reborn spoke. "You will learn in all due time what I mean. But don't think that I'll let you off the hook for saying 'no' to me. I'll make you join no matter what."
And just like that he left. I sweatdropped somehow knowing he wouldn't just let Tsubasa-san say "no". Bianchi had also followed in suit. She put her hand on Tsubasa-san before leaving, whispering something to her that made Tsubasa-san sigh and nod. Onii-san had also left saying something about not understanding the whole conversation that took place to the extreme and needing to take care of Kyoko-chan. Hibari-san had also left sometime before. Lambo left as well and I bet that his stomach was calling out to be fed. The only ones who were left were Tsubasa-san, Yamamoto, Gokudera-san (who had finally recovered when Bianchi left), and I. I could feel a slightly tense and awkward atmosphere surrounding us. I decided to break this tense atmosphere. It was just getting too stuffy and even more awkward for us to keep standing here.
"H-hey, Tsubasa-san." I called out to her. She turned to look at me with hardened eyes. "I-is what you said true? That you were abandoned when you were born?"
Yamamoto and Gokudera-kun also looked curious to see if what she had said was true. Her eyes had softened at my question and looked more melancholy this time. She sighed and replied in a quiet voice, but loud enough for all of us to hear. "Yeah… It's true… My mother, the one who had found me, told me that she didn't know who my real parents were or who abandoned me. All that was with me were some baby clothes and a note that said that my name was Tsubasa, I was ¾ Japanese and ¼ Italian, I was female, how old I was, and to take care of me with love and affection. 'It was the sappiest piece of work that I had ever read' my mother said. But she also said it was the saddest and that's why she took me in. She couldn't bear to leave a baby all by itself where it could die. She had loved me like I was her own child until the day she died."
Gokudera-kun burst in this time. "She died?! When?!"
Tsubasa-san smiled sadly. "Yeah… She died. Sometime after you left the house she grew ill. And right before my birthday she was on her deathbed. She told me so many things like she was going to die and I hoped so badly that she wasn't! But it was all in vain… On my 9th birthday I went to her room to wake her up. But when I got there she was pale and she didn't look like she was breathing. I tried to shake her awake and when I touched her skin, it felt as cold as ice. And when I realized I couldn't wake her, the only thing I could conclude was that she had died in her sleep. I cried when I realized that. I wailed so loudly that it woke everyone in the house. They all came rushing to my mother's room and saw me standing by her bedside sobbing my heart out. Bianchi was the first to rush to me. She had hugged me and greeted me 'happy birthday'. Then she kept telling me over and over 'It's going to be alright.' and just let me cry on her shoulder."
As she told us about her mom's death, tears started to spill from her eyes. But it didn't look like she noticed at all and was off in her memories somewhere. I glanced at Gokuera-kun who looked guilty for not having been there for her when her mom died. Then I glanced at Yamamoto. He had a serious and solemn expression on his face. I'm glad Yamamoto had matured over the past year we had been friends. Otherwise he'd be getting beat up by Tsubasa-san for laughing at what she said. But not laughing because it was funny which I didn't get at all.
I looked at Tusbasa-san again. She seemed to have noticed that she was crying and was rubbing the tears away. She spoke again after she had wiped her face clean with her sleeve. "Hayato… You still haven't answered my question. Did Bianchi tell you?"
Gokudera-kun looked angry for a moment then it went away. He sighed and said in a tired sounding voice. "Yeah… She told me."
It was Tsubasa-san's turn to look angry. She raised her voice. "Then why do you still act that way towards him?! He's your father, you imbecile! You now know the truth, why don't you actually believe it?!"
Gokudera-kun shouted back at her in anger. "I don't care anymore! I've lived long enough to know never to trust any information about that man! I can't believe it at all!"
"No Hayato Gokudera!" She shouted making him flinch at her saying his full name in the opposite way of saying a Japanese name. "It's not that you can't believe it! You won't believe it no matter what! You can't bear to think that the person you hate with all your strength might not actually be as bad a person as you think he is!"
He scowled at her. I think she noticed it, but she just ignored Gokudera-kun.
She continued with her rant. "You drowned yourself with anger and hatred towards your father and now you can't swim to the surface because you're too blind to see where it is! He didn't kill your mother, Hayato! She died on the way to the house from her illness that consumed her since before she met your father! Before she had you! Why can't you believe that your father had cried is heart out when he heard that she had died?! Why couldn't you have give him the chance to explain why he didn't tell you she was you mother?!"
He interrupted her rant. "Because I just can't! That man wouldn't tell me anything!"
She retorted back at him. "I said it's not that you can't, it's because you won't! Haven't you ever thought what it must be like for him?! It's not that he wouldn't tell you, but he couldn't tell you! It was so hard for him to resist telling you whenever he saw how happy you were when you were with your mother! He wanted so badly to have her part of the family all the time, but she refused to marry him! Your mother knew about her illness and so did your father but he didn't care! He was genuinely in love with your mother, Hayato! Can't you look past all your damn hatred and all your damn anger to see the truth! If you can't truly do something like that Hayato… You truly are a sad person!"
She turned to leave behind us with a fuming Gokudera-kun. Just then a huge bullet, which looked strangely like the 10 year bazooka bullet, came flying straight towards the unknowing Tsubasa-san. I called out to her in fear. "Tsubasa-san look out!"
She turned around to look at me, but I was too late. The bullet was already closing in on her and I wasn't close enough to push her out of the way. She looked at to where I was staring and her eyes widened in shock. Gokudera-kun suddenly sprang from behind me and ran towards her. He reached her just as the bullet hit them both.
I screamed, er I mean shouted in fear. "GOKUDERA-KUN! TSUBASA-SAN!"
Smoke was covering where Gokudera-kun and Tsubasa-san were. The smoke looked kind of like the smoke that came from 10 year bazooka… Wait! It is from the 10 year bazooka! That means Gokudera-kun and Tsubasa-san were blasted into the future! Oh thank god! No wait! That might not be a good thing! What's happening in the future? Why was Tusbasa-san targeted? Who targeted Tsubasa-san? What's going to happen now that their selves from 10 years into the future are here? Ohh, so many questions! My brain is in pain!
I rubbed my head in frustration. I looked towards the smoke as it cleared from the area. I gulped in anxiety. I really wanted to know what they were like in the future. I glanced at Yamamoto and I think he felt the same as I did. He was really focused on the dispersing smoke and so I looked back at it too. There sat a 10 years older Gokudera-kun and Tsubasa-san coughing the smoke out of their lungs. Both had their eyes closed and were trying to wave away the smoke from their face.
I noticed Gokudera-kun's hair was longer in the future. He had it in a low ponytail like Mukuro from the other future had, but Gokudera-kun's hair wasn't as long as his. He had a lot of pierces on his ears like in the other future. He wore a dark red, short sleeved dress shirt, a loose gray tie, dark blue jeans, and black shoes. There were a few red and black bands around his wrists and he wore a ring on almost all of his fingers.
Tsubasa-san's hair on the other hand was shorter like she had cut it. She had her hair in low pigtails. She still only had one piercing on both ears like she had now in this time period. She wore a short (3)(4) gray scarf, a light red medium sleeved shirt, a light purple sleeveless shirt on the outside of the red one, gray cropped pants, and black "Turvy" shoes. She wore multiple black bands on her wrists and forearms and a ring each on her pointer, middle, and ring fingers on both hands. She also had a black briefcase next to her.
The smoke had finally dispersed itself and both future selves had stopped coughing. Tsubasa-san sighed and opened her eyes. She looked around and spotted both Yamamoto and I. She went up to us, briefcase in hand. She looked really worried and confused. Gokudera-kun was still on the ground for some reason. He looked like he was thinking, taking in his surroundings before getting up.
"Excuse me!" She said snapping my attention back to her. "Uh… This is the past from 10 years ago… Right?"
I sweatdropped on how much more dense and shyer she became but I answered never the less. "Y-yeah it is."
She sighed with relief. Then she looked at me again. "You're Sawada-sama's younger self, am I right?"
I slowly nodded in reply and she beamed with happiness. "That's great! Um… Your future self 10 years into the future told me to give this briefcase to you! He said not to open it until I go back to the future though…"
I took the briefcase she pushed into my arms. I suddenly saw the Vongola crest on the other side of the briefcase. I was also confused as to why she called me "Sawada-sama" in the future. In this time she calls me "Tsuna". It was a huge drastic change from "Tsuna" to "Sawada-sama". Even if it is 10 years later.
"You!" Someone shouted. I looked behind her to see future Gokuera-kun finally notice us over here. "I'm stuck in the past with YOU?!"
"YOU are here too?!" Tsubasa-san shouted in disbelief and what it seems like horror as well. I sweatdropped at how bipolar she had become. I sweatdropped even more on how slow the both of them are in the future.
"You jackass! Why the hell are you here?! I thought we agreed never to even see each other!" She screamed at him. "Get out of here you bastard!"
"What about you freak?! Why are you here?!" He retorted back at her. "Why don't you get out of here you stupid bitch!"
(5)(6) She gasped in anger. "I'm not stupid! Neither am I a bitch! But you are definitely a bastard!"
Gokudera-kun narrowed his eyes in anger. "Take that back you freak! Don't you dare call me that! At least I know who my parents are!"
She narrowed her eyes as well. "I am not taking that from you! Why don't you come here and fight like a man! Oh wait a minute! You aren't one!"
He stomped towards her. "Why you little!"
She stomped towards him. "Oh, so now you want to fight! Well bring it on you dim-witted pansy!"
He shouted back at her. "Fuck you bitch!"
She scoffed. "No thanks! I don't really need something small in my butt!"
He flushed from both anger and embarrassment. "Well I wouldn't want to screw a freak like you anyway!"
Their verbal attacks they laid out on each other didn't stop. Both of them kept stalking towards each other glaring at one another. I gaped at the scene that had unfolded before my eyes. I also blushed at the sexual things they said. I don't get it at all! Aren't they supposed to be friends?! What happened to them in the future?! What's going on here?! Why's this happening?!
(1): That's a sort of spoiler for one of the chapters of KHR. Before they all went home, Bianchi told Gokudera what really went down between his mother and father. So what Tsubasa said was true and sort of taken from the manga.
(2): Slight spoiler for what is about to come. She called Gokduera's condition a curse. It has something to do with the mysterious character and what Shamal was talking about.
(3): Cropped pants are pants that stop at your thighs if you didn't know. They're really cool!
(4): Turvy's are shoes that are really cool looking. They are like ninja shoes. Sort of... Anyway here's a link to the shoes, but just to warn you, this is a shopping site.
http: //www. shoes .com/ Shopping /ProductDetails. aspx?p= EC1213810 (just get rid of the spaces, cause FF's being a bitch to websites!)
(5): Ok, a "bitch" is a "female dog". She is saying she isn't one because humans are not dogs.
(6): Ok, a bastard is an illegitimate child. A child born from 2 people who aren't married. In other words, a child born out of wedlock. Tsubasa is saying this is true about Gokudera because his mother and father weren't married when he was born.
Mars: ... I am brutal... I actually wanted that to happen before I even wrote this chapter. Funny huh?
Tsuna: You wanted them to be fighting in the future?!
Mars: Yep! Wait, why are you here? Where's Hibari? Did he leave me?!
Tsuna: H-Hibari-san got tired of being here and threatened me to get someone to take his place or he'll bite me to death. He thinks you are the most annoying person he has ever met in his entire life.
Mars: *sniff*
Tsuna: Oh crap! Don't cry! Please don't cry!
Mars: Hibari rejected me! He hates me! That meanie head! Waaah! Jerk face! Bloody weirdo! Stupid Hibari! Waah! I'm sorry but I can't pay you!!
Tsuna: *sweatdrops* Ok...
Mars: I decided to change the pairings to my original ideas since no one is really telling me who to put except for 3 people. I still don't get how I'm turning this into a yaoi story, Kaze-07?? Anyway here they are! Also, major character spoilers down here! Ok, well not so much...:
Tsuna: Bi polar much?!
Tsuna x Kyoko (One sided on Tsuna's part... Or is it? Should it be? Need voting for one sided or not!)
Mukuro x Tsuna (One sided in Muku's part. Forever one sided!)
Mukuro x Tsubasa (One sided on Tsuba's part. Probably will stay one sided, but will switch around maybe... Most likely will stay as a maybe sibling relationship or teacher/student relationship.)
Hibari x Tsubasa (One sided on Hiba's part. Should it be only that or more? Most likely the only one that will progress in the story. I'm just gonna go with HibaTsuba... Yeah, I'll just keep it at that!)
Gokudera x Tsubasa (Unknown feelings for either. Not originally a pairing. It was actually popular sort of last voting so I just put this in. Probably will be one sided on Goku's part though. May turn into "protective older brother" on his part. Or as people like to call it... "Sister complex"!)
Yamamoto x Gokudera (One sided in Yama's part. Forever one sided! Sorry 8059 fans! I like this pairing too that's why I thought of it. Goku will never agree to it though, so sorry!)
Mukuro x Chrome (More brother/sister type love though. Chrome mistakes the feelings for love... Finds out it's not though.)
Dino x Sakura (Kind of a teaser to my friend who DOESN'T GO ON ANYMORE!! I actually want this to happen. Sakura belongs to xXxBlackNightmareRosesxXx... When I finally get myself a FF account she bails on me and stops going on! I'm so sad! I think she's dead... I hope not though... Anyway! This is definitely a pairing so yeah... Sakura and Dino will appear later in the story. They are in denial though!)
OC x Tsubasa (I killed off the OC before I wrote the story. Sad, huh? Tsubasa had one sided feelings for him, just didn't tell him because of 2 reasons that I can't spoil yet! In actuality he loved her too, but didn't think she loved him back so he didn't tell her. Will tell you the name soon! I think... I'm gonna have to do it soon because I'm slowly forgetting the name!)
OC x Tusbasa (One sided on the OC's part. This OC's evil~ I didn't kill him though. Just left him beat up and near death in the hospital! He did something evil! Can't tell you what he did or his name right now, but I will soon! I think... Shoots... Already forgot it... Need to find new name!! Okay... I'm lazy so people help me come up with a name!!!)
Tsuna: ... *eye twitches* I really need to find someone who will be able to withstand this freak of nature's mind...
Mars: Hm? What did you say? *innocence shinning from me*
Tsuna: ... *eye twitches again* I better find someone fast!
Mars: Bye bye! See you next week! Say bye Tsuna!
Tsuna: Bye.
Tsubasa: Also, I made a new policy to my updating. I will update every 2 weeks unless I get at least 10 to 15 reviews! And it has to be different people, not 1 or 2 people reviewing every time! Besides... If not many people review, I have time to write the chapters! I still am on Ch.13 that's why... Trying to make my chapters longer that's why... Thanks and vote please!!
