Author's Note: Wow, this took a while. I wrote a bunch of drafts for a chapter in between the chapter before this and the Mist battle, but in the end…I got too lazy to make the drafts better. Also, I really don't mean to sound like I hate Chrome. I think I said this in another chapter too…

I walk into the gym with Ken and Chickusa, dressed in a Kokuyo Middle uniform. "You're the Mist Guardian?" exclaims Tsuna.
"I wish, at least then I'd have something to do," I reply.
"So it is Mukuro!" shouts the Storm Guardian.
"Nay," says the puppet.
I frown at the puppet's illusion of the floor cracking and floating around. It's still weak…I sigh as the other Guardians start to freak out. To make it more convenient, I neutralize the illusion in the area where Ken, Chickusa, and I are standing. I'm impressed with the opponent's illusions though… The puppet uses another weak illusion and makes the opponent scream after being attacked by some blue tentacle things. Why would an illusionist fall for a trick like that? Then, the illusionist realized that they were just basketballs.
"You aren't able to see an amazing fight like this all the time," says the Arcobaleno.
"I would disagree…This one is quite a bore," I say, yawning.
"Illusions…Mukuro's First Path of Hell!" shouts the Vongola.
"She really is Mukuro!" shouts the Storm Guardian.
"Do I seem to be Mukuro-sama to you?" I ask, calmly.
"…No…" replies the Vongola, seeming unsure.
"All illusionists can use illusions! The title is 'illusionist' after all! Besides…Mukuro-sama's illusions are a lot stronger," I reply.
I nearly fall asleep at all the chatting. I should probably sleep more...I only pay attention again when I hear the puppet claim that she won't lose to anyone. I doubt that. I sigh and start to play with an illusionary bird. When she unleashes pillars of fire, she's copying Mukuro's attack, but I doubt that it'll ever be strong enough to actually useful. I neutralize the one that almost erupts underneath my feet. …That was careless…unless it was on purpose…The opponent, changes all the pillars of fire into ice. I smile; I always did prefer ice pillars over fire.
My eyes widen when the puppet's weapon shatters. "What's happening?" asks the Vongola.
"She's supposed to be dead. The weapon was the item keeping her illusionary organs stable," I reply.
"Organs made of illusions?" shouts the Vongola. I sigh as the puppet starts to cry.
I can faintly hear Mukuro's voice now. "You did well, my dear Chrome…" Then I feel some of my power being used, immediately, I stop it from being drained. I will not participate in this, I won't help. Somewhere, in the back of my mind, I can hear Mukuro laughing.
"He's coming," says the Vongola. I nod in agreement.
"'He'?"
"What are you talking about, Tenth?"
"Mukuro-sama," I mutter.
"Mukuro! Mukuro is coming!" shouts the Vongola.
Making a big entrance as usual, when Mukuro switches places with the puppet he says, "You all seem as lively as ever, little Mafioso. It's been some time. I've come back from the edge of transmigration," says Mukuro. When the opponent starts to talk about Mukuro's failure at escaping, I see Ken tense up. "Ken, calm down…" I whisper.
From there, the situation gets better and better for the Vongola and his group. That should be expected if the opponent ran into some trouble before though.
"Mukuro-sama…" says Chickusa.
"Amazing! You're so strong." shouts Ken.
"Nice to see you again, Mukuro-sama," I say.
"How dare you come here!" shouts the Storm Guardian.
"What?" shouts Ken
"Hey, Gokudera," says the Rain Guardian.
"H-Hold on!" exclaims the Vongola
"You should be cautious of me. I don't intend to become friendly with the mafia. Although, it appears that my cute little Kasumi is getting sucked in…" says Mukuro.
"I am not," I reply, crossing my arms.
"I became a Guardian because it would be a more convenient way to take over your body, Sawada Tsunayoshi," Mukuro explains.
After calming down his Storm Guardian, the Vongola thanks Mukuro anyways.
"I've gotten a little tired…This girl…" mutters Mukuro. I watch as he switches places with the puppet and her body collapses on the floor.
"Ken, Kasumi, let's go," says Chickusa, after Ken comments about the puppet being a human (which are apparently weak) as though he isn't a human.
"Right," replies Ken.
"Yeah, I'm bored again," I say.
"You're abandoning her?" asks the Vongola.
"When she wakes up, she'll be able to walk. I don't plan on giving that girl my attention. She's not Mukuro-san, after all," replies Ken.
"I don't go the distance for people who I have little respect for. They can do it for themselves. See you," I reply.
Walk around Kokuyo Land wondering to myself. It's weird to feel so bored and unmotivated. I have no short-term goals to reach…no orders to follow…so, what exactly am I doing? Even the puppet has a goal to work towards. Hm, so this is what it feels like to be useless. "Kasumi, you look like Kakpi," says Ken's voice.
"Eh?" I ask, turning around to look at Ken. Then I add, "That must have looked weird...Sorry, I spaced out."
"You always look weird!" he replies.
"Hahaha, thanks," I reply sarcastically.
"It's weird for you to space out though. What happened? Worried that the girl is better than you now?" asks Ken.
"Hm? There's a girl that had a chance at getting better than me?" I ask, rolling my eyes.
"Then what was it?" he asks.
"It's probably sounds really trivial. Then you'll say something along the lines of 'You really are like a human girl aren't you?' or something like that. Let's go back, okay? Then I can force you to take a shower," I reply.
