"Wait a second," said Mari from where she knelt on the cold theatre floor, her hands tied behind her back and her eyes scrunched up in thought, "Why did you kidnap me?"
Mukuro's mismatched gaze regarded her with an air of casual amusement. "To find out the name of the Vongola 10th, of course," he said, his voice as smooth as silk. "Or did you forget our little... interrogation?"
Mari shivered at the memory of Mukuro's illusions. "I wish," she muttered darkly. "But that still doesn't make any sense. How did you know that I know the name of the Vongola 10th?"
Mukuro paused for a split second, his own eyes furrowing ever so slightly in thought. "Ku fufufu," he laughed, a secretive smile spreading over his face and a mischievous glint in his eye, "Don't worry about it."
"I'm worrying about it," Mari replied instantly.

Hi! I'm Necho. I've been helping Alex out with this story. And this tiny little extra scene came about because we spent 20 minutes laughing and barely able to breathe when we realised we'd gone and introduced a massive plothole into the story.
See, we were operating under the idea that Mukuro would kidnap Mari because of her close connection to Tsuna, but that actually doesn't make any sense because Mukuro still doesn't know who Tsuna is at this point, let alone that Tsuna's the Vongola 10th and Mari's special to him. Oops.
So, um, yeah. We might go back and retcon/edit in some stuff so this whole kidnapping thing makes sense. Or we could just not worry about it ;)
Alex:This was a big oof on my part but at least we figured it out! So we decided to do a little bonus chapter about it. Honestly not too frazzled by this plot hole, it was worth the long laugh. Best laugh I've had in a while. Next chapter will be soon! Finishing up the end of it after dinner!
See ya soon lovelies!
