Bold is Italian after lie 64, and general is japanese after they are in Japan. You can probably tell from the context. I MAY DO A DINOXFEMHARRY THING! IDK! (Why am I so hyped?) Tell me what you think!


Lie no. 59:

The Varia and their two new additions (how did that happen?) sat in the dining room as Harry pulled out a clipboard. "Don't ask me where I got it," he said as he saw Lussuria begin to open her mouth.

"Now! We are now beginning operation: Ruin Iemitsu!" Harry declared
"VOI! What?!" Squalo exclaimed.
"Look, idiot," Rosa began "You're all already in deep water because we broke out Xanxus, not that I'm against it, 'cus he's amazing. But let's be honest here, Vongola Nono screwed him over. We don't need to screw him over to mess with him, let's just crush the belief he has in his advisor! That's so much more fun!"
Belphegor looked at her for a moment, before snickering "Shishishishi, I like the way you think."

At this point, everyone turned their heads toward Xanxus, who was sitting leisurely against a chair that looked like a throne (how did he even get that?). Taking a large gulp of his wine, he looked at them before saying "Do it, trash. And don't mess up."


Lie no. 60:

Step 1: Getting in.

Getting into CEDEF was fairly easy. Squalo burst in with Harry at his heels, ranting up a storm of profanities about how he was getting sick and tired of finding CEDEF spies in the Varia (spies that didn't even exist). Mammon had gotten them access to the camera feeds so Rosa and Xanxus could watch from Sirius' home. Harry could hear his sister's running commentary, which was 100% insults, about everything they saw through the earpiece he was wearing. Every once in awhile Xanxus would say something condescending which she would respond to in kind.

It was nice to see them getting along.


Lie no. 61:

Step 2: Recon.

Once he and Squalo were in place and setting the perfect distraction, Mammon and Belphegor snuck in. The arcobaleno went about under a blanket of mist flames, listening in to any gossip they could find; whilst the prince went to the dark recesses of the CEDEF archives, grabbing files on everything he could find that Iemitsu had his fingers in. Including the files of his guardians and his apprentice.


Lie no. 62:

Step 3: Debrief

"So what did we find out?" Harry asked the table. Mammon stood on the table and used their flames to make a simple diagram to support their explanation. "I got a lot from his workers. But the best of what I found Iemitsu talks on and on about his beautiful wife and son. Says they mean the world to him. But… some of the lower level grunts, say he had an affair with his rain, Oregano. No one knows what came of it, but some think she got pregnant considering she disappeared for a couple of months." Floating above them were a series of images of Iemitsu, two faceless people in the place of the man's wife and child, and an image of Oregano.

A whiskey glass went flying over their heads and smashed against the wall opposite to Xanxus. The scars on his face began to grow and lengthen. "That bastard," the sky growled "He goes on and on about family and how it's sacred. That I would never understand! And then he does this!"

Rosa sighed and passed him another glass to throw.

"Shishishishi, It gets better." Belphegor chuckled, throwing a file onto the table.
"How?" Rosa asked
"I was looking the personnel files on the way here, and would you look at the resemblance between Iemitsu and his apprentice. And the similarity between the kid and Oregano."

The wave of wrath flames from Xanxus began to grow and cracks began to form on the new glass that Rosa had passed him. Harry looked at him and sighed, pouring him another glass. "Drink," he ordered "It will calm you down."
"Are you sure you are a doctor?"
"Who said I was a doctor?"

Drinking an entire gulp of his whiskey, he looked at Rosa as she said "Let's tell his wife. Even if she doesn't believe us, a single seed of doubt can make her do most of the work for us. Then we throw it all at the Vongola Don. Show him all the stupid crap he's done, then ask him that if Iemitsu can't be faithful to his own wife, who says he'll be faithful to the Vongola?"

Harry paused. Stared at his sister, before staring at his lover. Then back at his sister, then back at Squalo, before saying to the man:

"You've infected my sister. I can't decide if I'm happy and proud that she can make these kinds of plans and protect herself; or mad that she's a bit crazy now."


Lie no. 63:

Step 4: Become friends with the wife and son

Step 4 was most likely Rosa's favourite. Via the help of Mammon (and a lot of Harry's money), she and her brother moved into the house next to the Sawada's. Rosa joined the Namimori middle school and ended up in the heir's class.

A dial tone, ringing:

"Squalo, we just got here. Are you worrying about us already?"
"VOI! Aren't you the one who said you attract trouble?"
"Yes, but that doesn't mean you aren't deflecting."
A sigh from the other line
"Be safe. I hear an arcobaleno is there,"
"I will, don't worry."
Silence
"I love you, I'll call you later."


Lie no. 64:

Somehow, without even trying on Harry's part, Nana invited her new neighbours over for dinner. Rosa was playing on Harry's phone through the entire thing, sending irritating message after irritating message to Squalo.

"Ne, Rosa-chan, how do you like Namimori?" the housewife asked.
"I… like it… a bit? No, a lot," she said, bouncing the words around a bit. She detested having to actually learn Japanese, when Harry could easily use his magic to give her an easy grasp over it. Apparently, it would be odd for her to suddenly be great at the language despite not being great at every other subject, and being a polyglot wouldn't help them in the long run.

"Rosa, what's your native language?" the arcobaleno tutoring the heir asked
"Language? Oh! Italian," she told him in japanese.
"Ah! I speak it as, well!" Reborn said "Now, what are people associated with the Varia are doing here?"

Harry paused in the middle of chewing. Swallowing, he gave an enigmatic smile to the hitman, before saying "I didn't expect you to know, but then again I really shouldn't have underestimated an arcobaleno."
"Who doesn't know about the Varia's new recruitment officer and his apprentice? But I have to know, are you really sleeping with Superbi?"
"Sorry, I don't kiss and tell."

Reborn laughed, scaring Tsuna even more than he already was. The Italian being thrown around was terrifying him. For all he knew, his new neighbours were probably associates of Reborn and were probably there to 'help him become a good boss'. Rosa placed a hand on his shoulder "Relax," she told him.

"Why are you here?"
"Isn't it obvious? We're here to cause chaos."
"I see. Tell me how it goes?"
"I won't need to. You'll know it when you see it."


Lie no. 65:

After a while, Nana decided Harry would be her new friend, and Rosa joined the next generation Vongola in school. Gokudera immediately hated her, as he knew about her connection to the Varia. He had been there in the Mafia Academy when she joined and could easily say she was a menace. The two argued like cats and dogs, not unlike the way that she argued with Squalo (maybe even like the way she argued with Xanxus, but that was pushing it a bit).

She remembered the way Harry reacted when he saw Tsuna's lightning guardian. Her brother was enraged. A five year old was chosen! It was as if the man didn't care what happened to these children.

She couldn't wait for Harry to spill the guts.


Lie no. 66:

After Rosa's japanese got better, it was a lot easier for her to make comebacks against Gokudera. It was ironic… Gokudera, of all people, was the one to help her with the language. Occasionally even translating things into Italian when she was completely lost (might have been because Tsuna asked but she would take what she could get). It was (god, kill her for admitting this) nice that she now had friends other than Belphegor (did he count as a friend? He spent most of his time trying t get her into fights. At least it meant she could practice her Muay Thai).


Lie no. 67:

Tapping her pen against the table, she stared at her textbook as she attempted to work through the questions during break. Tap, tap, tap. Over and over. Until a sharp kick landed on the back of her chair. Turning around, she saw the storm glaring at her. "Stop" he ordered.
"I can't help it," she replied "I fidget, sorry."

Standing up, he walked in front of her. "What are you doing here?"
"Learning."
"I meant in Namimori. Are you here to harm the tenth?"

She sighed before putting the pen down. Folding her hands in a way she had seen her brother do when he was annoyed and trying not to punch something, she looked up at him and switched to Italian. "No, I am not here to harm your boss. His father, on the other hand? I make no promises... The skeezy asshole… Frankly, I respect the Vongola heir, he's good, naive, but ultimately good. He loves you guys, like I love my brother. He'd be a good boss, once he got past the violence of it all."

Gokudera stared at her for a moment, unsure of what to say aside from the simple nod he gave her. "Just… be there for him in the fallout of what's gonna happen. He'll need friends like you guys to help him through it. And Miss Nana, but I'm pretty sure big brother will help her out, if Iemitsu decides to be even more of a scumbag. He has a soft spot for her."

The boy looked at her as she unfolded her hands and went back to staring at her work. After a few moments, he grabbed an empty chair before placing it in front of her and grabbing the textbook. "OI!" she exclaimed, only to be surprised when he asked "What are you stuck on, annoying girl?"


I loved writing this, I delved into my inner secret agent for some weird reason when I was writing this. I can't wait for the fallout of all this. Reborn getting along with Harry was not something I expected when I started this. Rosa and Gokudera being friends was planned, but my fingers/muse may have other ideas. Who knows! Also, you guys can speculate who said 'I love you' in the phone call between Harry and Squalo. It's generally open to interpretation. I did not expect for the focus of the second half to shit to Rosa but it was fun to focus on her for once ^-^
