Star:*lays face down on the couch, mumbling something.*

Misaki: I guess I'm doing the disclaimer. Star only owns her Ocs.

Star: *lifts head* On with the story. *head flops down*


"Are you okay?" Tsuna asked as Misaki wrapped a bandage around Yamamoto's arm.

"Don't' worry about me. I'm good." Yamamoto reassured him.

"It's not too tight?" Misaki asked as she finished wrapping Yamamoto's arm.

The baseball player shook his head. "Nope. Thanks Misaki." He looked at Reborn and smiled sheepishly, holding up the broken bat. "Sorry kid, your bat broke in the fight."

"Don't worry about it." Reborn pulled out a new bat. "I'll give you a spare."

"Oh, Thanks."

"Of course he would have a spare." Tsuna said while Misaki raised an eyebrow.

"You know, at this rate, taking down Mukuro might be easier than we thought, Juudiame." Gokudera said confidently.

"You know, you probably just jinxed us, Gokudera." Misaki said as she put the bandages and peroxide away. "Just because we took down two of his guys doesn't mean he is going to be easy."

"She's right." Reborn said, throwing a picture at them. "Mukuro isn't someone to be taken lightly."

"He's gotten through many close calls and defeated a number of opponents. "He explained as Tsuna picked up the picture and looked at the picture. "This time's no different. He got out of jail just before his death sentences was to be carried out."

"Mukuro Rokudo looks scary!"

Misaki rolled her eyes as she walked over and looked over Tsuna shoulder. "I'm sure his isn't that .."

Tsuna looked over at her confused, while Misaki started widened at the picture. "Misaki?"

"That girl…"

The brunet blinked confused before looking back at the picture. In the photo, next to the animal boy, was a teenage girl around their age with slightly wavy pale blond hair and pink eyes in a white t-shirt and light gray pants. She stared blankly at the camera.

"I Know her. I met her when Fuuta and I went to the store a few weeks ago…" Misaki said, an uneasy feeling washing over.

~KHR~

"If it isn't the prima bi-."

Mukro smirked as the red-haired girl flinched as a knife flew past her, imbedding itself in the wall behind her. It seems his prima donna was still upset.

"Is there a reason they're here?" Luchia growled, glancing at the redhead. "I can understand the other four but the harlot?"

"Excuses me?!" The girl shrieked in anger, reaching for her clarinet.

"Now now. Let's not fight among ourselves." Mukuro said, a silent warning hanging in the air.

The girls glanced at each other before Luchia walked over and pulled her knife out of wall. Out of the corner of her eye she looked at the large man, a slight burst of guilt ran through her before it faded. She slip the dagger into the holder on her thigh. She crossed her arms as she stared out the window as Chikusa came to, slightly listening to the conversation between. Her fingers gripped her arm as she heard about Ken.

"Of course that's why they are here." She grumbled under her breath as M.M said that Mukuro pays the best.

Luchia looked over her shoulder at Chikusa. "Since they're here, you can rest some more. We'll probably have to clean up someone mess."

"She is right." Mukuro said. "We'll leave the Vongola to them."

The sound of something hitting the ground drew their attention to Fuuta as he picked up his Ranking book. Luchia gazed back out the window, her anger growing as she heard Mukuro chuckle.

~KHR~

"Hey guys."

Misaki and the others looked back at Tsuna.

"We've been walking for a while, why don't we take a break for a bit?" He suggested.

"That might be a good idea. I'm getting kind of hungry." Yamamoto said, placing his hand on his stomach.

"Why don't we stop for lunch, Juudiame?" Gokudera asked.

"I think I see a place up a head, we can stop." Misaki said, pointing at a group of what looked like stone tables.

They walked over to the tables and Yamamoto took out the tea and sushi from his bag. Misaki took out her water bottle and took a sip, giggling softly as Bianchi got jealous and try to give Tsuna a cup of teal soup with bugs in it. Suddenly, her water bottle started bubbling, heating up. She drop the bottle, let out a surprised yelp as both her water and the cup of soup exploded.

"Is this poison cooking too?!" Tsuna yelled.

"I don't think so." Misaki said, pouting at the melted water bottle. That was a gift from Drew.

A low sound echoed in the air before the food started bubbling up. They instantly ducked for cover as the food and drinks exploded.

"What was that?!" Tsuna asked, panicking.

"We're under attack!" Bianchi replied.

"Yeah but from where?" Misaki peaked up over, only to duck back down again as the drinks exploded. "And what is that sound?"

Gokudera lit a few dynamins and threw them over towards a nearby building.

"That's a lame wepond."

As the smoke cleared they saw a red haired girl with a clarinet sitting on a large piece of rubble.

"I can't see why Kakipi and Ken had such a problem with you." She said,

"That's a Kokuyo Middle School uniform. " Tsuna said.

"Which means.."Yamamoto said, standing up.

"You have got to be the most pathetic Mafiosi I've ever seen." The girl gave them a look like they weren't worth her time.

"What?! You're just some girl in a uniform." Gokudera said annoyed.

"What's wrong with being a girl in a uniform, Gokudera?" Misaki asked slowly, giving him a side glance.

The girl jumped off the rubble. "Don't you dare talk down to me. I'm M.M," She turn her nose up at them, gesturing to her uniform in distast. "And I wouldn't dress like this unless Mukuro commanded me too."

"Mukuro.." Tsuna said.

"So there are more of them.." Gokudera added.

"Anyone else comment on how her name is the name of that candy or how it sounds like some Rappers name." Misaki shrugged as Tsuna gave her a look of disbelief at what just came out of her mouth. "What? It's true."

M.M let out a disappointed sigh. "Man, it saddens me to see all you losers. If I'm gonna stick around someone, Mukuro-chan's the best choice. Men are all about money."

Misaki frowned, crossing her arms as she shifted her weight to one side. "So basically you are just doing this for money. Wow, you sound like some gold digger."

Tsuna face palmed while Yamamoto chuckled nervously and Gokudera snorted.

M.M's eyebrow twitched, this girl ticked her off just like Luchia did. "I'm going to enjoy sending you to the next world and then I can buy all the expensive bag and imported clothes I want."

Misaki deadpanned. "You just proved my point."

"Shut up!"

M.M brought the clarinet to her mouth and played. A loud sound wave rushed at them. Tsuna shrieked as the bottles and food bubbled. They all ducked down, avoiding the hot water and drinks.

"That clarainet's a weapon?!" He asked, crawling away with his hands covering his head.

"What kind of attack is that?" Goukdera asked.

Misaki peaked over the table, but ducked down as another attack came at them. She hissed as some of mushed food hit her cheek. "Whatever it is, it's making the food extremely hot." She said, whipping her cheek.

"I'm too young to die!"Tsuna wailed.

"There is no way we can get closed to her like this." Yamamoto said.

Suddenly Bianchi jump over the table. "I'll go."

"Bianch!." Tsuna examined as he and other looked at her.

"You're mistaken." She said.

"Huh?" M.M blinked.

"Money isn't what's important….It's Love!"

The red head frowned. "What is with this girl? She is pissing me off."

"That clarinet works like a microwave huh?" Bianchi asked, crossing her arms. "It uses sound waves to raise the temperature by vibrating the water particles."

M.M Shrugged. "So what if you figured it out? Yes it dose. The special sound waves from this clarinet vibrate particles to five hundred million rotation per minute. The faster the vibrations of the molecules, the hotter it gets. In other words, if someone get hit by the sound waves, the water molecules in their body will start to boli and…BANG!"

"Seriously?" Yamamoto asked as M.M started laughing.

"That insane." Goukdera frowned.

"Enough chit-chat." Bianchi said. "Here I come!"

"Go ahead! I'll cook your brain before you can get close!" M.M. taunted.

Misaki gaged slightly as the pink haired woman pulled out two large plates of poison food. "Where dose she keep all that?"

"Another lame attack?" M.M asked, smirking slightly as Bianich ran at her. "Burning Vibrato!"

"She is using the food as a shield." Tsuna exclaimed as the poisonous food exploded on the trays but Bianchi kept running.

"She's good but will it hold?" Yamamoto asked.

M.M's eyes wideded slightly as Bianchi got closer.

"That's enough music!" The pink hair woman yelled, throwing the trays.

M.M stopped play, dodging the trays. Seeing an opening, Bianchi pulled out a cake, ready to slam it in the girls face. M.M let out a short scream before smirking, pulling the clarinet apart.

"Thought I'd panic?" She asked, dodging the cake and knocking it out of the woman's hand. "I'm also good at hand-to-hand combat too!"

"Bianchi!" Misaki yelled as Bianchi got sent flying.

M.M laughed. "What were you saying about love? Nothing beats money!" She smirked as Bianchi pushed herself up and glanced at the girl. "Time to finish you off with one last blow."

"Why you.." Misaki growled angrily.

Just as she and Yamamoto were about to go intervene, Gokudera grabbed their wrist. "Hold on. She already touched it."

The two of them shared a confused look before looking at M.M as she brought the clarinet up to her mouth, giggling softly to herself. Suddenly her eyes widened as a horrible taste hit her tongue, her clarinet becoming a mass of purple muss and bugs.

"The clarinet!" Yamamoto exclaimed as the M.M let out a scream.

"Isn't that Bianchi techniques?!" Tsuna asked as Misaki winced slightly.

Gokudera nodded, looking slightly sick himself. "That's right. Everything she touches instantly turn into poison cooking."

"I think I'm gonna be sick.." Misaki groaned. "I feel slightly sorry for her, only slightly."

"This is…impossible." M.M muttered as she fell back, her body twitching.

Bianchi stood up and Misaki was about to ask if she was okay when the woman rushed over to Reborn, who was asleep. "I'm so glad I didn't interrupt your nap." She said.

"When did Reborn get here?" Tsuna asked.

"So, the only reason she was fighting was so that Reborn didn't get woken up?" Gokudera asked.

"Love conquers all." Bianchi said, smirking.

"Bianchi is terrifying." Tsuna said, slightly fearful.

Misaki let out a nervous giggled as she nodded in agreement, making a mental no never to say anything is stronger than love around her. Her eyes drifted over the M.M, who had passed out, a confused frown on her lips. The only girl in the picture of Mukuro's gang was Luchia yet here was another person working for him. Misaki looked over at Tsuna and was about to ask him when a creepy laugh came from behind them. They all turned and saw an old man wearing a Kokuyo uniform, glasses and a bucket hat with a cane. On his shoulder and head were two small yellow birds.

"Glad to see that greedy little snip defeated." He said, smiling.

"Wh-Who are you?!" Tsuna asked

"Now, now calm down." The old man said as he held up a remote. "Take a look over here."

On the wall of the building appeared video feeds. The left one show Haru walking down the street, engrossed in a book with her head phones on while on the right one show Kyoko talking with Hana.

"Your friends are being targeted."

"Kyoko-chan! Haru!"

"Just who are you?! What are you planning?" Gokudera demanded.

"My name is Birds." The man said. "The Video you're seeing is being transmitted from tiny cameras placed on my feathered friends."

They watched Kyoko and Hana stop at the bus stop and Haru walk into one of the park and sit down on one of the benches.

"Huh? What's that?" Tsuna asked, seeing some movement behind them.

Misaki inhaled sharply as they saw two, grey skinned people, move behind the girls. They remind Misaki of a charater from a horror game Lucas made her play with him.

"Oh so you've spotted them." Bird smiled. "They're my loyal twin henchmen, the Bloody Twins. Adorable aren't they?"

"I wouldn't use the word adorable." Misaki said her under breath.

"Sadly, during their time in Prison, they considered such vicious serial killers, they had to be restrained at all times."

"What?!" Tsuna exclaimed.

"Please watched this." Birds instructed nodding his head towards the feed as the twins crept up behind the girls. "It seem the two of them would like to play with these adorable lovely lady friends of yours."

They gasps as the twin's nails grew, turning to long sharp claws, ready to slice the girl into bits.

"Watch out!" Tsuna screamed.

"Kyoko! Haru!" Misaki yelled as the twins held their hand over the girl's head.

"What are you planning?" Bianchi demanded.

Birds cup his chin for a second before he smiled at them. "Nothing at all if you do what I say. Got it?"

Gokudera grabbed his collar, his fist raised. "Don't mess around! They're not involved in this!"

Misaki grab the angry sliverett's wrist. "Gokudera wait! I don't like it either, but if you hurt him, who knows what the Twins will do to Kyoko and Haru."

"You should listen to your friend, take a look." Birds looked over at the screens

Misaki's felt her stomach do a nervous flip as the twins moved behind the girl, eagerly awaiting the order to strike.

"I can give the order to strike from here. I hold your friends' lives in my hands. So don't run your mouth at me!" Bird shouted. "And get your hand off of me, you fool!"

Gokudera was tempted to get in one good punch but Misaki held tighten her grip on his wrist slightly and shook her head. He scoffed and shoved Birds away.

"As long as you do as I say, they'll be fine." Bird reassured them, even though it had the opposite effect. "So, shall we begin?"

They all waited as Birds looked at them, Misaki taking quick glances at the video feed. They could easily beat him with no problem, but with the twins' just inches away from Kyoko and Haru, they couldn't risk it.

"I've…got …it." Misaki felt sick as the old man's smile grew. "I want all of you to beat the Vongola boss to a pulp."

"W-What?" Tsuna stuttered.

"What was that!?" Gokudera said.

"Gokudera." Yamamoto warned, not liking the idea.

"Maybe he doesn't know that Tsuna's the Vonogla." Misaki thought, hoping that they could trick him.

"I said I want you punch Sawada-kun over there." Bird said, pointing his cane at the fearful brunet

"Or maybe not."

Tsuna took a step back before looking at the screen nervously.

"You want these two sweeties to get home safely, right?" Birds asked. "Then you'll have to hit him!"

"This isn't fair! It's a one-sided fight!" Gokudera argued.

"Don't be unreasonable!" Yamamoto demanded.

Misaki gritted her teeth as Birds laughed at them. She looked over at Tsuna, who was staring at the screen, scared and worried. Both of the girls were too engrossed in what they were doing to see the killers behind them.

"Do it or don't. Either is fine by me." Birds said "Okay,go ahead."

"Haru!" Misaki yelled as one of the twins swiped his claws.

She let out a sigh of relief as Haru blinked and looked behind her, the twin jumping out of site. The feeling of relief vanished when Haru returned her attention to her book, not noticing as the lamp post fell in pieces behind her.

"Oh yes, my other hobby is scaring people." Birds said gleefully."I get such a kick out of the surprised look on people's faces. Their defenselessness, their ignorance, their helplessness!"

"You sicko." Gokudera said in disgust as the look on Birds' face as he laughed.

"He's completely nut." Bianchi said.

"Do you really think you should be saying that?" Bird challenged. "If you refuse to obey me, then next time…"

One of the twins raised his claw as Kyoko continued to talk to Hana about her brother. Misaki closed her eyes tightly as he brought his claw down.

"I got it! Yamamoto, Gokudera-kun, hit me!" Tsuna blurted out quickly.

Misaki opened her eyes to see the claws stop inches from Kyoko's hair, hesitating for a moment before pulling back. She looked over at Tsuna, who realized what he just said.

"Darn, we were almost at the good part." Birds said disappointed before smileing. "Okay then, start before I count to five."

"All right,umm.." Tsuna closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down before he opened them as Birds started counting. "Y-Yamamoto, Gokudera-kun! Hit me!"

Misaki bit her lip as the two boys said they couldn't do it. "Guys this isn't the time for that! I don't like it either by we don't have a choice."

"Three."

"Misaki." Tsuna gave her a desperate look.

"I know. I'm sorry…" Misaki said as she took a step closer to her best friend.

"Four."

The redhead raised her fist and Tsuna squeezes his eyes shut tightly. Misaki was hesitant for a second, she couldn't do this, it was Tsuna after all, but if she didn't then...

"Fiv-"

Suddenly Tsuna went flying back. Misaki blinked as Bianchi grabbed her wrist,moved her hand around.

"Sis, how could you!" Gokudera said.

Bianchi looked at Tsuna with an uncaring look. "You forget the real reason I came to Japan in the first place was so I could kill Tsuna and return to Italy with Reborn. You should be grateful that I'm only doing this."

Tsuna bowed his head slightly, rubbing his cheek. "Th-That's true…"

"Huh…. It hardly hurts at all." Tsuna realized, looking up at Bianchi.

The pink haired woman looked away. "I'm used to being hated."

"Bianchi."

She looked over at the younger girl who had a grateful smile on her face as she mouthed the words thank you. Bianchi gave her a quick smile.

"You cleared that stafe spectacularly." Birds said, drawing their attention to him."I'm sure you'll clear the next one just fine."

"Wait, there's more!?" Tsuna yelled in disbelief.

"Well, no one said it'd end at that."

"I really should have let Gokudera hit you." Misaki growled.

Birds chuckled. "Sinces you did such a good job at the last stage, I'll make this the final one."

The old man tapped his cane on the ground. The wood fell from it revealing a blade underneath.

"I want you to stab your boss with this." He grinned as the blade sparked.

"No way in fucking hell!" Misaki snarled.

"Misaki, hold on." Yamamoto grabbed her.

Misaki whipped her head to look at him and for a brief second, Yamamoto could have sworn her eyes turned orange for a second.

"I don't know how many times I have to say this, but you can refuse all you like." The old man said.

Tsuna slowly reached for the sword before pulling his hand back.

Birds grinned and looked back at the video of Kyoko. "Shall we begin with this girl,then?"

"Kyoko-chan!" Tsuna said.

"She's so cute. Like a little angel."

"You touch her I swear to god I will kill you!" Misaki snarled.

The other looked at Misaki, surprised at how angry she was getting. Tsuna couldn't help but look at her eyes. They weren't their normal brown with a hint of wine red in them. They looked like they were getting light by the second, like a growing flame.

"All he has to do is stab himself." Birds said, flinching slightly when Misaki glanced at him but quickly regained his composure. "If you don't…"

Behind Kyoko, one of the twins waited eagerly to sink his claws into her. Tsuna watched nervously.

"Do it." Birds said gleeyful.

"Wait!"Tsuna yelled, clenching his fists as the twin stopped. "There's no way I'll let Kyoko-chan get mixed up in something that doesn't involve her!"

"So, you'll do it?" Birds asked, grinning as Tsuna walked over and picked up the sword. "You have ten seconds."

"Y-You bastard!" Yamamoto said, tighten his grip on Misaki's arms when she lunged slightly when the old man chuckled.

"I'll do it." Bianchi told Tsuna. "I'll call for an ambulance immediately after wards."

Tsuna pulled the swords out of the ground. "No, I'll do it myself."

"Tsuna." Yamamoto said.

"Juudiame, think this through!" Gokudera urged him.

"Gokudera-kun protected me without worrying about nearly ended up not being able to play baseball, which he loves so much…" Tsuna gripped the swords slightly, his hands shaking as he thought about how he put Kyoko in danger. "So I.."

He raise the sword above his head. "I can do this much!" He yelled, bringing the sword down.

"Tsuna!" Misaki yelled.

Suddenly a painful scream filled the air.

~KHR~

"Ugh.."

Chikusa looked over as Luchia grabbed her head, a hand against the wall for support.

"What is happening to me?" She let out a slight groan as her head started pounding.

"Lu.."

"I'm going for a walk."

Luchia gritted her teeth as the throbbing intensified as she walked outside. It was as if someone had their large hands around her head and squeezing it tighter as she walked. She stopped and grabbed her head, leaning forward as she let out a painful groan.

"What….agh!" She grunted, squeezing her eyes tightly.

She heard the familiar roar of thunder and looked up, to see the clear sky, the roaring growing louder in her ears.

Suddenly as quick as it started, the pain was gone. Luchia blinked, confused at what had just happened to her.

Unknown to her, five others went through the same thing.

~KHR~

The blade stop inches from Tsuna's leg.

"What's wrong?!"

They all looked at the screen, a feeling of relief washing over them when they saw one of the twins on the ground, Shamal standing over him.

"Dr. Shamal!" Tsuna said relived.

"Shamal?" Bird asked, suddenly looking nervous.

"Way to go!" Yamamoto cheered.

"About time, you crazy doctor!" Gokudera said as Misaki let out a sigh of relief.

Birds cleared his throat, composing himself before he held up his hand."Well hold on for a moment. Have you all forgotten? There is one more, you know. See, it's this girl's turn next."

"Haru!" Misaki and Tsuna yelled as the twin behind Haru slowly moved his claws towards her.

"If you don't want that to happen, perhaps you should continue." Birds said, smirking. "Go on, Vongola X, please cut yourself as you were now!"

"Hah!"

They all instantly looked at the screen as an older I-pin kicked the twin away.

"I-pin!" Misaki said relived as TYL Lambo appred. "Lambo!"

"No way. Where did they come from?! No one should have known about this!" Bird started panicking.

"Why do I have a feeling you knew something like this was going to happen." Misaki said looking her shoulder, smiling at the smirk she received from the hitman.

"Reborn, y-you.."Tsuna said.

"It's nice that you have a Family who'll step up when things get hairy." Reborn said.

Tsuna smiled, nodding as he rubbed his nose before he realized what the hitman had said." Wait, they're not a Family!"

Misaki giggled, getting Tsuna's attention. He looked at his best friend and noticed her eye's had returned back to normal. Misaki gave him a confused look before she looked at Birds, sadistic smirk spreading across her face.

"So who gets the first hit?" She asked as she and the other walked towards a panicking Birds, who ordered the twins get up and attack.

"It seem your twins are out matched, Birdy." She challenged as Shamal and I-pin took down the twins with ease.

For a second, Birds didn't see a teenage girl, instead he saw a red haired woman with a sadistic smirk and glowing amber eyes.

"W-Wait y-" He never got to finish as Misaki slammed her foot into his face.

"I'm sorry, what was that?" The red head blinked as the old man slid down the wall, knocked out. "Oops. I think I kicked him a little too hard."

"You broke his nose." Gokudera said, impressed as blood drip down the man's face.

Misaki rubbed the back of her head, giggling nervously.

"By the way, Reborn, who are these guys?" Tsuna asked, looking at the hitman.

"The people who escaped from prison with Mukuro."

"Wait a second! I thought he only escaped with three other people!" Tsuna said.

Reborn help up three mug shots. "I got an update from Dino. It's been determined that M.M.,Birds, and the twins were also part of the group that escaped, for a total of eight people. All but those four had vanished. Who would've guessed they were working together?

"Yeah, who would have guessed that." Misaki said sarcastically, rolling her eyes.

"That's not what you should be saying!" Tsuna said.

Reborn pouted. "But…But….Dino said they weren't connected!"

"Don't try changing your character to cover it up!" Tsuna yelled before he looked around. "I guess he's gone now."

"No. He's here." They all looked at Bianchi who glance at some trees on to of a small hill. "Don't hide! Show yourself! We know you are there. If you don't come out, we'll just come to you."

They wait anxiously as they started at the trees.

"W-Wait, it's me." A meek voice said as a familiar head of light brownish-blond peaked out from behind the tree.

"Fuuta!" Tsuna said as young boy step out.

"You were here?" Goukdera asked.

"You didn't run away?" Yamamoto asked.

"It doesn't matter." Misaki said shakeing her head before giving Fuuta a smile. "We're just glad that you are okay."

"She's right." Tsuna reassure him, taking a step closer."Everyone's here, so it's safe now. We can all go home together."

"Stay away from me, Tsuna-nii." Fuuta said. "I can't go back with you guys anymore."

Misaki step up next to Tsuna, a worried look across her face when she saw the look on Fuuta's face. "Fuuta, what are you talking about?"

The look on the young boy's face painfully remind her of one she had seen on a little girl's years ago.

"I'm going with Mukuro-san!" Fuuta cleanced his eyes shut before turning away."Goodbye!"

"Fuuta wait!" Misaki ran after him, Tsuna right behind her.

"That look…Mukuro, what did you do to him?!" Misaki thought, promising to give the man hell for whatever he put Fuuta through.
