After a brutal lesson taught by Viper, I was done for the day.

I went to my balcony and slumped into my chair and closed my eyes. Sleeping is great.

That is, until it was interrupted by a giant robot. The, "Gola Mosca" I believe. He woke me up then picked me up. No rhyme or reason, he just did it.

It dragged me to all the other executives of the Varia.

"Mosca! Put him down. He's not a ragdoll." Lussaria instructed. And so he did.

"Why'd you bring me here?" I asked.

"To talk about your future, Kumoru." Belphegor answered.

"I don't even know my past. What makes you think I'll even consider the future?" I commented.

"Because. We want you to work for us. And we'll give you an offer you would be foolish to refuse." Viper advised.

"And you want to ask me now?" I asked a bit puzzled.

"You've been doing really well recently, and we just want to extend our hand out to you ahead of time." Viper answered. I looked at Squalo with an angered face.

"I'm still against this choice." He groaned.

"Thanks for the, uh, offer. Just give me some time to think about it, okay?" I backed away awkwardly.

"Take as much time as you want to think about it Ku-chan!" Lussaria smiled.

"Uhh, thanks." I left. Of all the qualified people, what made me so special? I'm a moron with a pointy stick and no idea on how to use it. Maybe it's because of my special flame? But even then, it's still a little puzzling.

Dino showed up a week later to pick me up and take me to another location to stay.

"So, did they teach you anything?" he asked.

"Yeah." I answered plainly.

"Anything bad happen?" he asked.

"No. But, where are you taking me now?" I asked back.

"Vongola base. The outside advisory unit will look after you there. They'll also teach you how to use your flame energy to your advantage." he answered.

"Why are you moving me?" I asked a tad confused.

"We're a bit afraid that they'll corrupt you and make you into one of them." he answered.

"That's not so bad."

"Well, they would turn you into something you aren't."

"So?"

"Does your heart say you're a killer?" he asked.

I thought about it for a moment. "No."

The rest the trip was silent. Could he be right? But they seemed so nice, especially Lussaria. Did they really want to make me into a cold-blooded killer?

We arrived at the base after a few hours of travelling. I got out of the car.

"Alright, this is Lal Mirch." he introduced.

I looked around me. I didn't see anyone.

"Down here." Someone advised. I looked down. It was another small talking baby.

"She'll look after you for a while. Be good." he waved off and left.
