Fratellanza

"You know what? You deserved it!" I shot Arro an annoyed look. I was stuck in bed. Literally, I was connected to three different machines, had an IV in my arm and was almost handcuffed to the bed. Alaric had been ready to find some if Shamal had asked. "Fighting them on their own!? In your state!?"

"I was lectured enough, please don't add to it." My eyes found Superbi, leaning against the wall and dressed normally. "Why are you still in Namimori?"

"Vooiiii I wasn't going to leave town until I knew if you were going to make it or not! I don't want to be killed!"

"Your concern over my well being is truly touching Superbi." He looked away with his usual scowl. I looked up at my best friend. "Did I miss something while I was out?"

"Nothing interesting, really. Superbi is squatting the couch now."

"You've punched Sawada in front of everyone and told him he was an ungrateful brat!" I raised my brow and Arro rubbed the back of his head. "And you said to the Ninth if Luciana died he could say goodbye to his son for good!"

"You told me I was right on this one!"

"Why the ungrateful brat?"

"He was spouting nonsense about how it was his friends waiting for him on the island, and except for Chrome it's bullshit. You were on your way to the ER at this moment, so I told him not to forget what they did to Yamamoto or you, and how you could have killed him during the Sky Battle instead of just watching." I pursed my lips.

Oh.

He used that particular argument.

"Did Li come see you?" I nodded.

"Yeah, he's pissed to have been beaten so fast but felt better when he saw me." Arro snickered. Superbi stepped forward and shoved his cousin toward the door.

"I have to talk to her, go take a coffee or something."

"Hey but she just woke u…

"Vooiiii do as I say!" He slammed the door shut behind Arro before coming back to my bed. He sat in the chair next to it. "You're still mad at me?"

"Mad?" I repeated in confusion. "Oh right, I was angry at you. Sorry, a lot has happened." He scoffed.

"I'm aware." There was an awkward silence. "You didn't tell me right away you knew Arro either brat!" I blinked in astonishment.

"Sure, but he asked me not to tell you. We bonded over badmouthing you." He widened his eyes comically.

"Vooiii are you fucking kidding me!?" I snickered and he shook his head, his arms crossed. I raised a brow when I noticed his cheeks were turning red.

"Superbi?"

"Vooiiii I'm sorry!" I gaped at him in shock. That guy's pride was as big as my terrible drawing skills.

"Apology accepted!" I replied eagerly. "I didn't know you knew the word 'sorry'!" He blushed scarlet in embarrassment.

"Shut up!" I chuckled.

"I'm sorry too for not telling you about Arro." It calmed him down. "Thank you for stopping Lussuria as well."

"He would have whined for hours otherwise."

"Sure. Thinking about it, if you have your memories from the Future, do you know what your future-self meant by 'I won't be too late'?" He froze, his lips moving but no sound was coming out. "Superbi you're okay?" He jumped on his feet, his face red once again.

"Anyway brat! Give Cavallone some rest or he'll really have a heart attack! Bye!" He almost ran away. I stared at the door, speechless and my brother appeared shortly after with Fon.

"What's gotten into him?" he mumbled under his breath.

"Master give me a hug." He jumped next to me on the bed.

"Will you stay nicely in the hospital until you're allowed to go?" I nodded. "Then I'll think about it."

"Thank you~."

"I won't be long, I just wanted to tell you something. I had Iemitsu on the phone. If the Shimons, once everything is over, were to try to come back to Namimori for whatever reason possible, him and I will decide whether or not they're allowed to. As you're in Namimori, you'd have to assess them and tell your impressions to Iemitsu."

"Got it."

"And I'm staying until I decide otherwise!" I blinked at Dino.

"Really?"

"Yeah, isn't that great!?" I smiled nervously.

"I mean...at home there's a lot of space. Let's hope I don't end up killing you in your sleep by accident!" And Kyoya would stop using my bedroom window as his personal entrance.

I spent the afternoon with my brother, Arro coming back an hour later saying Superbi was leaving.

It would be nice to spend time Dino again. Technically, it had not been that long, yet it felt like it was an eternity ago.

"Stop attacking me!" I told Arro, my eyes glued to my gray Nintendo DS Lite, just like he was staring at the blue Nintendo DS that I got him for his birthday two years ago.

"I'm making a point: it's not because I'm playing with Luigi I'm going to lose!" My fingers were moving as fast as they could, I witnessed Mario being thrown objects at him by his brother. Luigi won and I closed my game console out of spite. "You're such a sore loser Lulu~."

"I suck at these games anyway."

"Yeah, I know, why do you think I keep forcing you to play them? I'm winning against you!" I rolled my eyes and put the sound of the TV back on.

"How long has it been since they left?"

"Huh...they left the day after the inheritance ceremony and they had seven days...it's the sixth one right now." I had woken up in the night from the second to the third day. Kyoko, Haru, I-Pin and Bianchi had visited me. I couldn't eat what they brought me because of my new diet. They didn't ask about what the boys were up to and I was glad about it.

Fuuta and Nana-san visited as well, and Nana-san, being the wonderful woman she was, cooked a few things that agreed with my diet. Shamal didn't like that but he couldn't say shit.

Of course, Rick, Dino, Fon and Arro also visited.

I could walk without any problem and I still had an IV for...reasons, but I was kept under observation. I still had the rest of the medical exams I had to go through, and having Dino here was reassuring. Shamal was also curious as to how Byakuran did what he did, so he wanted to find out through blood tests and other stuff.

I probably should pay more attention to what medical exams I was going to go through exactly.

"There are rumors at school by the way, I heard them today!"

"Rumors?" He nodded.

"Yeah! Well, one of them is you and Hibari dating." I rolled my eyes. It was not as if we were just 'friends', but I was aware of that rumor since I joined the Committee so it was nothing new. "But there are rumors about us dating as well because someone saw us going home together."

"...we never really showed we knew each other when you were transferred." He shrugged.

"It's not important. There's the rumor that Sawada and his crew are all in a gang and that they somehow got Hibari to join them. That you and Sasagawa were involved because of the Future...funny enough, nobody noticed we knew Alaric on a personal level."

"If they knew that, with Alaric as a teacher we wouldn't hear the end of it."

In the evening, Dino was walking me back to my room after breathing some fresh air when we noticed a big group of people. I sighed in relief when I saw all of them alive.

"The Shimons are here as well," my brother whispered, his arm on my shoulders. I caught Kyoya's gaze for a second and nodded at him before looking up at my brother.

"They're no longer fighting and it doesn't look like there's any tension, leave them be for tonight. I'm tired." We turned around and took the elevator. "We'll be briefed soon enough anyway."

"I know." Dino was silent for a few seconds, a conflicted look in his eyes. "I just hope that whatever happened won't make Tsuna forget what they did." He kissed me on the top of my head.

The next morning, I ate a very tasteless breakfast with a morning show on the TV. Like a lot of Japanese TV shows, it was pretty dumb. Korean ones were no better. Apart from anime, I was not a big fan of Asian TV shows to be honest.

I opened the blinds, careful of my IV, and raised a brow at Kyoya at the doorway.

"Morning," I greeted him as I went back in bed. He locked the door behind him and sat on the edge of the bed. He was scratching his arm. "Did something happen to your arm?"

"Hives," he said quietly, raising his sleeve enough for me to see the redness on it.

"Oh my God how did you get that?"

"Too many people for too long." I sweat dropped.

"You...you seriously broke out in hives because of people?" He nodded halfheartedly. "Kyoya, are you okay?" I asked, sitting up. "Did something else happen?" He turned his body toward me, gazing at me through his dark locks. I gulped. I was pretty sure it was anger but I wasn't sure.

"I told you I was the only one allowed to bite you to death so why do you keep being bitten to death by others?" I was taken back. Was it his way to say he worried about me?

"I'm sorry for worrying you." He remained silent.

In the blink of an eye, I was in his arms, my eyes locked in his as his forehead was against mine. His arms were tight around me, indicating he wasn't about to let me go.

"Kyoya?"

"There will be punishment Luciana."

"Su..." I was cut off by a pair of warm lips capturing mine. I relaxed immediately and closed my eyes, grasping the front of his shirt with my hands.

It was not like his future self, I could feel he didn't really know what he was doing but was following his instinct. I was doing the same after all, but feeling his lips moving against mine was more than enough to me. After a few seconds, his tongue poked my closed lips, asking for more and I granted him access. One of his arm went from my waist to around my shoulder blades and pressed me more into his chest. My hand with the IV in it went to his thigh whereas the other went to his cheek. His tongue started to be more initiating when I broke the kiss because of a lack of air. I smirked at him through my blush.

"Took you long enough."

"Shut up," he mumbled, lowering his lips toward mine once again.

It seemed one kiss was all he needed to grasp the most important as his tongue didn't waste time to engage with mine. I moaned in his mouth, which made him groan and push me on the mattress, him on top of me.

Kyoya was on top of me, kissing the shit out of me and I was enjoying every single second of our make out session. I lowered my hand from his cheek to his neck, then to the naked skin of his chest the three unbuttoned top buttons were giving me access to. I felt him shiver under my finger tip and it made me smile against his lips.

He could turn me into a hot, blushing mess but it seemed I had some power as well.

He broke the kiss just to get some air and turned his face to the other side before capturing my lips once again.

For the next few minutes, the only sounds you could hear in the room were those of panting and wet kisses. Afterward, he laid his cheek against my chest, one arm around me as the hand of the other was caressing where the scythe stabbed me absently over my clothes. I was running my hand through his hair without a word. It was an appeasing silence.

"Dino decided to stay for an unknown amount of time by the way." He sighed softly as my fingertip ran along his ear. "He'll probably stay at my apartment so use the door if you visit."

"It's too long."

"I'm sure breaking the lock of my window was faster, but I don't want to hear my brother whining. My apartment's already going to be crowded and I care about my furniture."

"Then he can go to a hotel." I chuckled.

"He's my landlord." He straightened up, his hands on each side of my face.

"How long are you staying in the hospital?" I pursed my lips in thoughts.

"I'd say one more week at least. Byakuran helped quite a lot actually." He didn't seem to appreciate the mention of Byakuran, but he didn't say anything.

"It's annoying," he whispered, moving his face closer and closer to mine.

I kissed him back without a second thought, but someone trying to open the door interrupted us.

"Ana!" Dino called from the hallway. "Why is it locked?" My lips were still pressed against Kyoya's and he didn't seem to want to move. "Are you okay? Do you want me to call a nurse!?" I managed to push Kyoya away. He was smirking smugly.

"I'm good!"

"Are you alone?" Kyoya stood up and opened the door. Dino stared at him and just as Kyoya was about to return to his previous spot, Dino shook his head furiously. "Nope, not on my watch." I widened my eyes when my brother, my Dino, my klutz of a brother, grabbed Kyoya by his collar, literally lifted him from the floor and almost threw him in the hallway before locking the door, and all of this with no men around.

Kyoya's wide eyes, filled with shock, would stay in my mind for a long time. It was hilarious.

I found myself clapping at him in awe.

"You're not allowed to stay alone in a room with a boy, especially in the hospital!" Let's not mention it was not the first time then. "I knew something was going on, I just knew it. Romario was saying I was overreacting and overprotective but I knew there was something," he mumbled to himself, pacing furiously.

"Heh...Dino? Did you want to tell me something?" He stopped in his movements and shot me a confused look.

"Some…oh right, Reborn briefed me on what happened. Also, Rokudo Mukuro was released from Vendicare." I stared at him, unfazed.

"Repeat that?"

"Mukuro was released from jail. He's free. Daemon Spade took possession of his empty body and they released him for the help he offered them." I blinked at him.

"Repeat that?" He sighed and sat down in the chair next to the bed.

"Right, it's better if I start from the beginning." I listened to him quietly.

Daemon Spade was an asshole, that I knew. I never thought he was that much of an asshole to haunt the Vongolas for centuries though. He caused the brutality the Shimons had to endure from other Families, then whisper a few words in their ears and he launched them on a path of revenge.

Of course it was sad for them, they had not asked for anything, their ancestor moving to an island and pretending to be dead to the world, and there was a small part of me sympathizing with them I guess, like I knew it was the case for Dino. However, it did not change the fact they killed three people, who had a fearsome reputation and fame as a Mafia Family, that they attacked the Vongolas and caused severe wounds to Takeshi, and I as well but Daemon was the one to directly wound me. I guess the Shimons were not really as much responsible for my injuries as they were for Takeshi's. In any case, they couldn't remain unpunished. No matter what the reasons were, you had to pay for what you did. My Trial taught me that the hard way. Daemon may have toyed with their resentment, but ultimately, apart from Katou Julie, he didn't physically force anyone else to attack or kill others.

On the bright side, nobody else died. Tsunayoshi and Mukuro were both in bed because they suffered the worst wounds. Ryohei had been treated when he was sent in Vendicare, enough for his body to do the rest of the healing on its own. Takeshi was back under medical observation, like his buddy...Kaoru I think? As Sun Flames did wonders though, they wouldn't stay in the hospital for long.

Even if Tsunayoshi had all of the bones in his body broken by Daemon and as it was Mukuro's body...they had to beat it to a pulp.

"The Ninth will hold a meeting to decide their fate. As we know all of the story, they're not really allowed to defend themselves and won't be in the room. Tsuna and his Guardians will be though, like Reborn and I."

"I'm taking part as Iemitsu's representative?" He nodded.

"Arro and Alaric will be with you. If you want my opinion, you should write a report and send it to Iemitsu before the meeting, so that you say what you have to say and end up with a 'This is what I sent Sawada Iemitsu, now it is up to him to make a decision of behalf of the CEDEF'." I nodded.

"Good idea." There was a mention of the 'Flood of Blood' too.

Iemitsu cared about his subordinates. When he noticed someone wanting to go on a suicide mission for one reason or another, he didn't beat around the bush and told us straight away why we shouldn't, even if it were things we did not want to hear.

From what Oregano told me, he became like that since the 'Flood of Blood'. Twelve members of the CEDEF murdered and stuffed in a hotel elevator. There was so much blood it went through the elevator's doors. Ever since, he was extra cautious about the missions he was sending us on.

Before, he trusted his subordinates' skills blindly. Now he refused to send us to our death if he had any doubts on the mission.

Iemtisu was not an ideal father, but as a Boss this traumatized him I think.

"Can you bring my laptop? Wait, do I have wifi here?"

"I'll send it myself if you want." I frowned at his concern.

"Something else?"

"It's just...Reborn told me there was a chance Tsuna asks for forgiveness. I understand where he comes from but..." He sighed and put a lock of my hair behind my ear. "No matter how you look at it, even if the Ninth sees in Tsuna a great change for the Vongolas, there's a high chance he crashes into reality."

"Better now than when he's fully in charge Dino."

"Sure, I'm just biased right now." He got up. "I'm going to bring your laptop."

"Thanks." He stopped at the door though and turned around with narrowed eyes.

"What was Kyoya doing this early in the morning in your room with a locked door Luciana?"

"He complained about having to be surrounded by people for so long," I replied without thinking about it.

"Huh...I see..." he replied, still in dubious tone. "I'll be back shortly." He closed the door and I sighed in relief.

Technically, I didn't lie. I just didn't say we made out as well.

I blushed thinking back about it, a dreamy smile on my lips.

He really did take his time.

"Stop grinning like an idiot." Dino chuckled and spun me around. I was wearing a suit with a black skirt, close to my legs, that ended up mid-thigh with thigh-high boots with short heels. My new glasses made me look professional as the frame was quite thick, rectangular and black.

"But my baby sister looks so grown up and professional!" I rolled my eyes.

"You've already seen me like that," I reminded him as we entered the elevator. The meeting was in a meeting room in the Ninth's hotel.

"Sure, but you have to play a big part today!" I sighed. I wouldn't change him, it was impossible to change him.

"Let's get this over with. I'm not getting out of the hospital anytime soon if I keep having professional obligations."

The table was long in the meeting room. At the end of the table was the Ninth and on his right were his Guardians. Dino and I sat down next to them. Tsunayoshi and his crew were quick to arrive, barely two minutes after us. They sat down in front of us, with Reborn directly next to the Ninth. Alaric and Arro stood behind me, their arms in their back.

It was a beautiful sight, we were all wearing black suits.

"As you all know, we are here to decide the punishment the Shimon Family will have following their actions ever since they entered Namimori. Sawada Tsunayoshi-kun, as the Decimo candidate and the one who dealt directly with them, please tell us what you think their punishment should be." Tsunayoshi stood up, nervousness written all over his face and in his body language.

"Well huh...I know Enma-kun and his friends did bad things but...Daemon Spade used them for his own personal vendetta, and it started in the Primo's era. Ultimately, they were victims too, especially with how the Mafia treated them in the past, especially Families under the Vongolas from what they said. I don't know a lot about this world but I know that you can't not take into account their past when judging them for what they've done. Ultimately, they're our friends, and the Vongolas and Shimons have been allied for centuries. We should help them. Maybe...maybe have them under surveillance or something, but ultimately we should help them!" I shot Reborn a look. His face didn't let anything through.

Then I looked at Hayato. He was conflicted over what his precious Boss was saying. Kyoya was staring at the table, listening closely but seeing the flaws in Tsunayoshi's speech.

Even Hayato saw them. But these two were the only ones. They were the only two with Mafia or illegal backgrounds, they knew what Tsunayoshi was saying was a beautiful utopia.

"Is that all?" the Ninth asked him. He nodded. "Alright, you can sit back down. As the situation involved the entire Family, I judged necessary to have the CEDEF involved as well. Luciana Cavallone, please stand."

"Yes." I stood up. "Before I start, I would like to officially apologize on behalf of Arroganza De Luca. He let his emotions dictate his actions and it shall not happen again. Decimo, Ninth, please accept my apologies." I bowed slightly.

"It's fine!" Tsunayoshi said immediately in a hurry, waving his hands frantically in front of him. "Arro-san was angry and had every rights to be."

"Thank you. I am representing my Boss, Sawada Iemitsu, today. Although I will not be the one to take a decision, what I will say today is what the report I sent him essentially said. It will be his decision in the end." I took a deep breath. "The Shimons came in Namimori because their town was earthquake-prone and the one we caused by going back from the Future caused their arrival in town. Ultimately, this same earthquake revealed the Shimon Rings. When taking a decision concerning their actions, we cannot forget the part Daemon Spade played, and especially the fact he was a Vongola. The Vindice said it as well when they tasked Sawada Tsunayoshi and his Guardians to deal with him. As such, this conflict was in part an internal one as well that we failed to deal with in time and that ultimately created victims outside of the Family." The Ninth sighed deeply, knowing this as well. "By taking this into account, especially how that man was a master in psychological manipulation, the punishment the Shimon Family will have will probably not be death penalty." I saw Tsunayoshi sighing in relief and Reborn whispered something to him. "However, they're not innocent as well. Daemon Spade may have whispered a few things in their ear that turned their resentment into a strong reachable revenge thanks to their newly awakened powers, but the only person he possessed in all of them was Katou Julie. The others chose to fight on their own free will. They were influenced, but not forced to do anything."

"What but senpa..." Reborn stopped Tsunayoshi from going any further.

"I can't suggest any potential punishment, I am still too young and inexperienced in that area to find a suitable one. However, I know that in our world, you have to be punished for what you've done, in spite of the reasons behind, because at the end of the day, it will not erase what you've done. Although no guests were injured during the Ceremony..."

"They regret doing it!" Tsunayoshi snapped, getting up abruptly. Hayato got up as well, clearly knowing where I was going and that Tsunayoshi would look like a naive kid.

"Tenth, please don't…"

"They're allies!"

"So was the Giegue Family." He widened his eyes, freezing in the process. "You do not know this, but this alliance was recent. An accident in Moscow three years ago made Federico Vongola, the previous Decimo candidate, submit the Giegues into an alliance. The main reason they decided to take care of the threat was to prove the Vongolas they truly were allies and would remain as such. You could say it was a gesture of friendship. However, they were slaughtered. I saw the bodies, and from what I was told and what I saw, I'd say Suzuki Adelheid is the killer. She was not possessed by Daemon Spade, hence making her in full control of her body and mental capacities when she killed them. Even if the Shimons are powerful and have been allied with the Vongolas for centuries, the Giegues were powerful as well, brought strong links in Russia and showed the Vongolas were able to connect in several different continents. There are a lot of other political or financial reasons for which the Giegues were better allies than the Shimons, but I will stop there. Most of all, if you were to pretend they didn't kill the Giegues and forget the latter, it would send the message to the whole Mafia that the Vongolas do not care for their allies and on the long run, it will cost us a lot, in money, power, reputation and blood." Tsunayoshi was livid. "I can see why you do not really see how the Giegues were really important, and you never met them after all, so you did not have any particular relationship with them. I will put this problem in another context so that you can understand." I took a deep breath. "Although I fell to Daemon Spade, he wouldn't have been at the Ceremony if it was not for the entire Family. Let's say I had died at the Ceremony though, and that you had the same arguments you have today. Do you think the Cavallone Family would have accepted that without saying a word?" He widened his eyes and sat back down. "Killing people in the Mafia is a daily occurrence, but some people are bigger kills than others. I'm the only sister Don Cavallone has. I also happen to be the only sister the VARIA Boss has. If I had died or even if I had suffered permanent damage, and that you had had the same arguments as today, no matter the decision taken, none of my brothers would have accepted it. The Vongolas could have lost their alliance with the Cavallones, or they would have severed several bonds without breaking the alliance, and the chances of the VARIA cutting all ties with the Main Family would have been very high. Daemon Spade or not, they have committed crimes. There are circumstances behind them, reasons for which they did it and of course Daemon Spade was a main trigger, but nobody can't forget what they did, and even if you wish to bring the Vongolas of Vongola Primo back, you can't forget that and forget the Families the Vongolas have bonds with today. Even your Storm Guardian and tutor know that. But if you still want to emphasize the fact they're also victims, then I am sure the Vongolas can find a Japanese-Russian translator." Tsunayoshi furrowed his brows at me. "The Giegue Family was composed of three members, but each member had relatives waiting for them in Russia. If you want to defend the Shimons' crimes, then go there and tell their relatives why the murderers of their loved ones are not punished for their crimes. If you can't do it, then it means you know they're guilty and have to be punished as well. Favoritism will get you nowhere, and ultimately will doom a lot of people." I turned to the Ninth. "It sums up what I reported to Sawada Iemitsu."

"Thank you Luciana, you can sit." I did. He asked Coyote to speak up on behalf of the Ninth's Guardian. When Dino was asked what he was thinking, he pretty much backed me up, saying a special treatment would send a bad message. "I see. I will discuss this matter with Iemitsu today and will announce my decision to the Shimons myself tomorrow. Some of you still need to be in the hospital, so I will not keep you here any longer." He stood up and it was the signal for us to do the same.

I quickly turned at the corner of the hallway, my brother and my Elements following me. I stared at the wall I was in front of for a few seconds and dropped on my knees with a big sigh.

"Damn I hope replacing Iemitsu in this kind of situation never happens again!" I whined, a hand on my heart. "Too much pressure!"

"But you handled it like a pro Lulu!" I got up and turned around, just to be embraced by my brother.

"When did you grow up in such a way? Alaric, did you know!?"

"I always knew she would become like this one day," he replied calmly, Arro putting his hands in his pockets.

"It's true you weren't there in the Future before we fled the base. Lulu was all like 'you you go there!' and 'you you go here!'. My future self was not ever surprised." I managed to remove my smothering brother's arms from around my neck and noticed Tsunayoshi and his crew walking our way.

"Senpai..."

"Are you mad at me for what I said?" He raised sad eyes to me with a small smile.

"No, not really, I just thought it..." He sighed. "I know you didn't say those things to be mean."

"You're right, I was being as objective as I could. If I had said what I thought, it would have been way worse." He blinked in surprise.

"What?"

"To put it simply, they have power but are too easily influenced because of their emotions. They're a liability." Ryohei, Takeshi and Tsunayoshi widened their eyes, Hayato averting his to the side. Chrome looked down and Lambo was strangely quiet.

"Hey Sini, aren't you a little bit too harsh?" Ryohei asked me with a frown.

"No. The Ninth knows this but might not take it into account because they're your friends now, and have been linked to the Vongolas for centuries. In normal circumstances, they would have been killed or had had a leash placed around their neck to be kept in check." Tsunayoshi smiled nervously.

"I don't think the Ninth would have..." I snickered wryly.

"Don't let looks fool you." Dino wrapped an arm around my waist from behind me.

"And this is the end of the discussion, right Ana, Tsuna?"

"Not yet," I told him. "Arro, you apologize."

"Heh!?"

"You're old enough to apologize on your own." He kicked an invisible rock and mumbled an apology. Alaric slapped him in the back, which made him step forward.

"Fine, I'm sorry for punching you Sawada!" He turned to Alaric. "Don't do that again!"

"Alaric, can you bring her back?" my brother asked him. Rick nodded.

"Let's go Miss. Arro, if you don't hurry up you're walking."

Kyoya was waiting at the car. The ride was silent, and Shamal didn't even let me go back to my room that he was kidnapping me for some medical exams.

"Reborn?" I said when I was back in my room, exhausted.

"Good job today Luciana." I waved him off and climbed into bed.

"Dino was there to check when I was getting too personal in my report." I yawned. "And Tsunayoshi? I mean, if you knew I was going to speak up as well, there's no way you would have let him go with so little arguments." He shrugged.

"I thought it would be better for him to be confronted to the reality of the situation now rather than the moment he becomes the Boss." He wasn't wrong here. "I knew you wouldn't hold back your punches." I smirked.

"Of course not." I looked up at my ceiling.

"Tsuna asked Dino if the Ninth had done something to you when they were alone." I sighed. "Dino didn't say anything, but Tsuna is confused right now."

"I'm sure he is. It's a lot to take in when you're new in the Mafia world and how it works."

"On another note, Dino came sobbing to me about you being in a locked room with Hibari two days ago?" I blushed and he smirked. "Oh? Did your hormones get the best of you two?" I widened my eyes at him, my face as red as a tomato.

"Reborn!" He puffed his cheeks in innocence.

"But you're not telling me anything about your life anymore Luciana!"

Fratellanza

Thanks for reading this chapter! Thanks to tenimyuohtori for their review! Luciana is not going to be cured anytime soon and it was her Future self who could not use the rings, nothing was said about her in her teenage years.

Bye!
