[TYL! Chrome x Mukuro] Reflection
Who was she? She didn't know.
Where was she? This spacious, white room with nothing; nothing, but the sound of running water. Where was it coming from, she wondered, was there a stream nearby somewhere?
And then there was him. Her wide eyes stared unblinkingly at the man standing before her. It was so strange, she thought, he looked so familiar. Where had she seen him before?
She didn't know.
A small, amused smile played on his lips; it was as though he knew what she was thinking. She was racking her brains, racking it, racking it…
A stream appeared behind her; she did not know how it could materialize, just like that. Her head turned slightly, and her round orbs widened even more as she watched the water trickle endlessly into white. And then, even as he watched, she edged timidly towards the running water, and peered into it.
A violet eye stared back at her. She blinked once. The other eye, the one hidden behind her purplish bangs, only saw black. She tilted her head back to look at the man, who was still smiling.
It hit her then; she had seen herself in him.
He then asked for her name, and offered her a chance to live – just like that, she was reborn.
Without him, she cannot live; she was Chrome Dokuro, his shadow. He had saved her once, when she had given up on herself, and then saved her several times more during her battles for the Vongola Family.
And now, ten years down the road, it was finally her turn to repay him. Standing before the Vindice prison, both hands gripping her trident tightly, she spoke in a small, but resolute manner,
"'I am Chrome Dokuro, of the Vongola Family," she began, "sent on behalf of Vongola Decimo, Sawada Tsunayoshi, to negotiate the permanent release of Rokudo Mukuro!"
Fleetingly, her quivering gaze and tensed body reflected on the heavy iron gates. And then, with a low rumble, the gates began to open…
An open end; may write a continuation, may leave it as is.
Not completely random.
Hope you liked it. 8D
