disclamer :i don't own khr !
Just like Mari said, the room was stinking. It was stinking of chemicals and …..Blood? …
He had to make sure. So advancing with shacking steps to the room's centre he observed the two mans standing.
There was knuckles and Talbot, not really realising the brunette's appearance, holding a variety of bottles and injections each.
On their right was another pair of men barely in their thirties. They were chained and
Hand-cuffed unable to move. One of them was pale and exhausted, while the other was numb , his eyes lifeless as if dead , but neither of the doctor nor the mechanic seemed to notice or they just didn't care even with the bloody river coming from the dead man .
Talbot , after mixing some chemicals , injected the man still breathing heavily with them , resulting in the latter's pained and horror filled screams and struggling , while knuckles kept his eyes forcibly on the experiment before him , writing some notes in some kind of data file .
The man kept, screaming and crying, asking of the two before him to stop this torture and just kill him already, while they ignored him.
Tsuna too horrified by the scene before him was unable to even move of choc .
"WHAT ARE THEY DOING?"
But before he could even voice his question, two arms caught him and forced him out of the room in an abnormal speed, and then he was dragged inside a storage room.
Breathing heavily he turned to see Mari before him face pale and expression twisted. And suddenly something clinked in tsuna's mind:
"Mari….you…..you know what they were doing right?"
The black haired teen stiffened and answered:
"y-you didn't have to see that! You shouldn't have entered! Why? Why didn't you just do as I –"
"MARI!"Cried the brunette making the girl jump in fear "tell me what they were doing!"
Turning to her friend slowly and observing him closely as if trying to buy time to think of a proper lie, she saw the great anger and irritation of the brunette and decided to answer truthfully:
"They…..they were doing experiments …on flames , I think ….."
Our little tuna had actually figured such a thing already, but the thought of having the nice man Talbot, and the kind hearted knuckles doing human experiments seemed ….. So absurd to him, and he just didn't want to accept such a thing, but Mari realising the boy's disbelieve quickly added:
"y-you said before that the Vongola was first to discover those flames! So it's only natural for them to have done some experiments of course, so-"
"NO!" and again the black haired teen was unable to finish her sentence because of the brunette's interference.
"NO! NO! NO! NEITHER PRIMO NOR HIS GUARDIANS WOULD EVER DO SUCH A THING!"
"T-THEN HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN WHAT YOU JUST SAW?" screamed the girl herself
"It's –it's a dream! Yeah! It's just a nightmare!i-I'll wake up after a moment ! I'll-"
And he was slapped in the face with great force.
Holding his cheek in pain, he looked at the girl before him, and saw that her face was red from anger:
"WHY? Why do you keep on denying everything? Just like before! You always refuse to accept the truth! Is it so hard to understand that this isn't a dream! These are Mafioso we are talking about Flora! MAFIOSO! They kill, they steal, and they will do anything for their familia's sake! Human experiments aren't that unheard of either!
Yet you won't accept it wills you? You don't want to accept it! That's why! That's why I didn't want you to enter the room! That's why I didn't tell you anything! Because I knew you won't understand! I KNEW IT!"
The brunette was shocked. He never had seen the girl so angry, and irritated.
He knew! He knew what the mafia is! He knew already! But, he knew as well that primo would never do such a thing!
"T-then, I will talk to primo! I will tell him to stop this! I won't let him do anymore experiments!"
"Idioto ! You can't just order a Mafioso around, and less the boss of the family you swore loyalty to! Saying something like that can be seen as an act of rebellion and treason! And traitors are to be killed!"
"BUT PRIMO WON'T DO THAT! I AM SURE OF IT! I just need to talk to him and he'll definitely -"
"NO! Trust me! You shouldn't! "
But the brunette was still stubborn:
"AND WHY SHOULD I TRUST YOU! I DON'T EVEN KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT YOU!"
"T-THAT'S BECAUSE I AM DOING THIS ALL FOR YOUR SAKE! JUST LIKE WHEN I MADE SURE TO GET RID OF LORICHER SO HE WON'T-"
But suddenly realising what she said Mari held her hand to her mouth shocked to have spilled such a secret without realising it.
"y-you, k-killed Mr Loricher?" asked the brunette terrified.
Mari desperate tried to explain herself:
"I-I didn't kill him, it's just! I just closed the door! i-"
"IT'S THE SAME!" yelled the brunette
"b-but! You should understand! I did it for your sake! I – I didn't want him to hurt you or anything! You should understand this! Sometimes you have to do such things to protect your friends and precious people! I –"
"YOU ARE JUST MAKING EXUCES! I DIDN'T EVER ASK YOU TO PROTECT ME !"
"BUT! FLORA I –"
"STOP IT ALREADY !"
Full of anger and hatred for his friend the brunette dashed out of the storage room, leaving the black haired girl alone calling for him desperately.
