Yyyaaaayyyy! I finally made it to my tenth chapter of Black Sky! I think I'm gonna write a couple more fun chapters and then go ahead into the Varia Arc. But for now, I shall continue with the adorableness XD And just like my other story, I will take ideas for a chapter. Just tell me what you think should happen in a chapter and don't worry I'll give you credit for it.

Here is chapter ten. Enjoy!

I do not own any of Katekyo Hitman Reborn. All rights go to Akira Amano, except for the characters and things I have created.


[3rd Person Limited: Kuroi]

Weeks have gone by ever since the incident with Mukuro. Kuroi didn't experience her visions often anymore. Everything was fine.

Kuroi was laying on the couch upside down in her pajamas. She had the TV on and she was watching it like a hawk. She took the remote and changed the channel until she found something better to watch. While flipping through the channels, she saw something that caught her eye. She stopped on a commercial and looked at it intensely. Kuroi slowly reached over for her muffin that was sitting on the coffee table in front of the couch, and took a bite out of it. As slow as molasses, she lowered her muffin on the table, never taking her eyes off the TV and still lying on her back, with her head hanging off the seat and her feet resting on top of the headrest. She watched the commercial and slowly raised the remote. She held it in the air for a few seconds longer, and then suddenly, she threw the remote at the TV.

"Gubid bamnamna*!"

*BAM*

The remote hit the TV, but thankfully, it didn't crack the screen. Kuroi heard Hibari's footsteps from out in the hallway and were getting closer.

"What are you doing?" He said when he turned into the room.

Kuroi glanced at the TV and then back at Hibari, "There was a spider... It's gone, now..."

"...Hn.." Hibari turned around and went back to whatever he was doing before he was interrupted.

Kuroi rolled backwards off the couch and headed up to her room. She looked around her closet and picked out an outfit that Haru and Kyouko bought for her. It was a white, short sleeved, puff shoulder blouse with long frills tied in a bow that was attached in the middle of the chest and flowed down to where the skirt started. A red, round gem with gold lining was placed in the middle of the bow to attach the bow to the blouse. The skirt was jet black satin and shined in the light. It was pulled up a little bit past her stomach and was supported with black satin suspenders. The skirt flowed down to her knees and poofed out just after where the ribbon was tied around the waist. A layer of thick, white fabric was attached underneath the skirt. A large black bow with long frills was attached to the back where the ribbon wrapped around the waist.

Kuroi put her outfit on after she was done getting cleaned up. She put black stockings on along with a white headband that had small, black frills lining it.

She ran back out to the living room and found Hibari sitting on the couch reading a book. Kuroi ran over to him and jumped on the couch.

"Neh~ Hibari?" She asked innocently.

"Hn," He mumbled and didn't pay much attention to her.

"Can we go to Namimori Park?" She asked him.

"No," He turned a page.

"... Why not?"

"I don't like going to crowded areas."

"But, you took me to the shopping district. Isn't that loud and crowded?"

"That was different. It was only necessary that time."

"... *sigh* Fine..."

Kuroi sat there for a few minutes and then got up. She headed over to the front door and looked back at him. She put her black dress shoes on and silently opened the front door and headed outside. She closed the door as quietly as possible behind her, and ran out the yard.

She jogged down the street, heading in the direction of the park. After a few minutes, she got lost in all the twists and turns of the neighborhood. Kuroi stopped running and observed the area. She didn't know where she was.

Just when all hope seemed lost, Kuroi spotted Gokudera walking down the street. A smile lit up on her face and she barreled down the road after him. When she was close enough, she leapt in the air and landed on Gokudera's back.

"Ha-ya-to-!" She sang.

"Nya~ W-What are you doing!? Get off me!" He shouted at her.

"Haha! I still got mad ninja skills," Kuroi teased.

"Just get off me!" He lost his temper.

Kuroi hopped down and smiled up at him.

"What's with that look?" He asked her, still annoyed by her pounce.

"What look? This is my face..." She pouted.

"Not that. Your clothes..." He gestured to her outfit.

"Oh- Kyouko and Haru bought it for me. They're really nice," She gained back her smile.

"Oh, Them, huh? ... So what are you doing here? I thought you weren't supposed to leave that bastard, Hibari's, side," Gokudera questioned her.

"Oh.. Um.. I'm not, but... I wanted to go to the park... Hibari didn't want to. He doesn't like crowds. So... I snuck out," Kuroi paraphrased the situation nervously.

"I thought you were supposed to be obedient?" Gokudera smirked.

"Well, he never said I couldn't go." She smiled back at him.

"Cheh... Smart. You find loopholes in everything, don't you?" He joked.

"I guess so, but on another note; I'm... I don't know.. Where the park is from here, heh heh..." She laughed nervously.

"It's just down the road from here," Gokudera gestured toward the park's direction.

"Oh... Well, thank you!" Kuroi smiled and ran off in the direction he pointed to.

Kuroi ran down the street and continued to her desired destination. When she finally got there, she saw that there was a lot of people there, but not too crowding.

Kuroi didn't think ahead about the crowding. She totally forgot about it and tensed up. She noticed that there was an old swing that no one was around, so she decided to head over to it.

She sat down on the swing and observed everyone's actions. She saw some kids playing around and chasing each other around. Others were socializing on a playground or messing around in a sandbox. Some of the kids seemed a little mischievous. About four or five were eyeing her... Kuroi tensed up and gripped the chains on the swing and looked down.

She knew those kids. They were all to familiar to her.

"Hey, guys, look who it is."

Kuroi focused in on them.

"What was her name? Shiro*?" A boy with spiky brown hair asked.

"No, it was something along the lines of Kuro*," Another with red hair teased.

"It's Kuroi..." She looked at them deadpanned, "My name is Sora Kuroi."

These kids were a few years older than her, and were obviously bullies to her. Kuroi remembered them fairly well. They were neighborhood kids that lived close to the orphanage. They were the ones that would abuse her the most. The children in the orphanage were cruel to her as well, but not as much as these kids were.

The one with the spiky brown hair walked up to her and gripped one of the chains above her hand and leaned closer to her.

"I almost didn't recognize you. You look so different now. Did you finally get a family?" He taunted.

"..." Kuroi didn't say anything to him. She just stared him down.

"I bet you she stole those clothes. There's no way she could afford them, they're too nice for her," A kid with black hair commented.

"I didn't steal them," She said sternly.

"Hah! Whatever, you're still a poor orphan. No matter what, you'll always be an orphan. Nobody will want to adopt you. I don't even understand why you're here. You're not welcome here and you never will be," The boy with brown, spiky hair insulted.

"Yeah, I'm sure her parents abandoned her because they never wanted her in the first place," A girl with dark brown hair laughed.

"Actually, her parents were killed in a fire, remember? Her nanny told us. She said that they died in a house fire and that everyone thinks that this little twerp did it," The red headed boy explained.

"Oh? Then I'm sure she killed them. I bet that she was so upset that her parents hated her, she killed them for vengeance," The girl with dark brown hair was smug.

Kuroi tightened her grip on the chains.

"... I ... kill ..." She murmured faintly.

"Oh my gosh! It spoke!" The red headed boy exclaimed sarcastically.

"I bet it's trying to communicate somehow," The boy with black hair said equally sarcastic.

"She's so stupid, she'll never have a family," The red head said.

"... I ... Didn't..." Kuroi was hiding her eyes behind her bangs as she held her head down.

"What was that? I couldn't hear you. Or, do you just not know how to speak properly?" The spiky, brown haired boy asked quizzically.

"... I... I... I DIDN'T KILL THEM!"

Kuroi jumped up from the swing, causing the kids to jump back away from her. Kuroi still hung her head down. Fury burning though her vains. The kids tormenting her became afraid. Though, it wasn't the fact that she stood up to them, it was the fact that her ring started glowing a red and inky, black flame that slowly started surrounding her. With that aside, the atmosphere, along with the actual environment became dark and menacing.

"You're such a freak!" One of the kids said and ran away.

"What the heck are you!?" The girl ran off as well.

"You're a weirdo, get away!" Another said and ran.

Kuroi looked up at the remaining children that were still there. When she opened her eyes... There was no color. Her eyes were black orbs. Not her iris, nor pupil were visible. The wind spontaneously picked up. Her hair and clothing blowing in the wind. The last remaining kids that tormented her witnessed her horrifying act, and not long after, they fled the area.

Kuroi took on a sinister aura. Her red and black flame consumed and swirled around her. She was beyond upset; she was infurriated.

She was going to take a step closer to them, seeking vengeance, however she hesitated...

'What are you doing!? This isn't you! Stop!' Kuroi heard the same voice from before when she was being mind controlled.

'Stop! Now! This isn't you! Please, stop!' The voice continued. Kuroi's flame started disappearing.

'What... Am I...?' Kuroi didn't finish her thought.

"What are you doing here?" A stern, recognizable voice was heard.

Kuroi turned around slowly to face the Head Prefect of the Disciplinary Committee. As her eyes became visible for him to see, they we already back to their natural gold color. The flame that emanated from her ring was entirely gone. No sign of it.

"I'm... Sorry..." She said in a daze.

Her mind was hazy. She had no idea what she was doing and why. She didn't understand what brought it on. All she knew, was that it was a dangerous situation, and what caused it were the lies that were spreaded by incompetent people.

Kuroi balled her hands into fists and lowered her head and stared in the direction of the children that abused her. After a few more seconds, she reluctantly relaxed.

She turned back to Hibari, "It's just that I wanted to go to the park is all..."

"What was that power just now?" He asked.

Kuroi's eyes widened and she shot her head up at him.

"W-What do you mean...?" She asked him nervously.

"... Nevermind..." He said and looked away.

Kuroi felt guilty that she went out without his consent. She didn't mean to make him upset.

Hibari started walking away from her. Most likely back to his home. Kuroi still wanted to play at the park, but without the bullies hindering her. Surprisingly though, Hibari actually headed over to a rather large tree and sat down beneath it and started reading again.

"Hibari...?" She was perplexed at his actions. Certainly he would rather be at his home, which is a lot less crowded and not as noisy, than being at the park with tons of people shouting and what not.

Kuroi walked over to Hibari a bit slow. When she got to his feet, he looked up at her.

"What is it?" He asked her with no emotion.

"I thought we were going home..." She was still confused.

"... Hn~ I was thinking of going home, but it feels nice out here.." He explained.

"Hibari, Hibari."

A little yellow bird that seemed to look a lot like Birds's bird flew down and landed on Hibari's shoulder and started singing the Namimori Chuu~ anthem.

"You're still off key," He said to the bird.

Kuroi walked over to the side of him where the bird was perched. She sat down and scratched the little bird's head. The bird seemed to like her touch considering it would press into her hand to be petted more.

"Haha! He's adorable! I love animals," She smiled as she petted the bird more.

Hibari just looked at her and went back to reading his novel.

For some reason, Kuroi felt extremely exhausted and started to drift off to sleep. She must've drowned out her energy when she summoned her flame. She tried to stay awake, but it wasn't easy. She leaned her body against the large tree trunk and looked up at the branches. Not long after, she fell asleep.

Because of the way she was positioned, she fell over on the ground and continued to sleep.


[3rd Person Limited: Hibari]

Hibari looked over at Kuroi. She was fast asleep on her side on the grass. Hibird flew off of his shoulders and landed on her hand and rubbed his little head against it. Hibari watched the bird as it nestled in Kuroi's open hand and fell asleep, as well.

"Hmpf..." He went back to reading his novel.

About four hours later, Hibari looked up at the sky and realized evening was beginning to settle in. He looked over to Kuroi. She was still asleep in the same position as before. He closed his book and stood up. Hibari walked over to Kuroi and tapped her with his foot to wake her up, but she didn't move a muscle. He bent down and placed his hand on her shoulder and gently shook her to wake her up. She still did not move. Hibari resulted in shaking her more violently, but she did not move even after all of that effort.

Hibari sighed and picked her up bridal style and carried her home. During his walk back to his house, Kuroi started clinging to him. She grabbed his shirt so tight, it seemed as if she would tear right through it with her fingernails. He stopped walking and looked at her. He analyzed her facial features. Her expression showed that she was in pain, but he didn't know of what. He thought that it might've been just a nightmare or just an uneasy mind. He decided to just continue onward to get home as soon as possible.

When they finally got home, he sat her down on the couch and took her shoes off to put at the door. When he returned to her, he noticed a small glow coming from her hand. He examined it closer and saw her ring emitting a red and an inky, black flame.

He narrowed his eyes and knelt down by the couch. He picked up her right hand and observed the odd flame. Hibari thought about taking the ring off. He reached down for it, but stopped when Kuroi's eyes suddenly flew open and she started breathing heavily, panting and gasping.


[3rd Person Limited: Kuroi]

When Kuroi woke up, she saw Hibari just a foot away from her. She was gasping for air, and she started to sweat a little bit. She had the feeling that she had some sort of nightmare, but she couldn't remember anything...

Kuroi noticed that her hand was in Hibari's and she instantly got confused. She looked at their hands and saw that he was holding her hand that had the ring on it. This caused her to become a little defensive and nervous. She retracted her hand from his.

"I.. Um.. Uh..." She couldn't come up with any words.

Hibari narrowed his eyes at her. He seemed to know that something was up with her, and, for once, he wanted to know what. But, he decided that if she wanted to tell him, she'd tell him herself when she's ready.

Hibari stood up and walked up to his room. Kuroi remained baffled and anxious. She looked at her ring, but didn't see the flame she saw before. Exhausted, Kuroi got up off the couch and headed to her room. She changed into her pajamas, which were long, baggy, cotton pants and a tank top, and rested on her bed.

She thought about what happened earlier at the park and why it happened. Then, she thought of her parents, their death and what caused it... This made her depressed and she hugged her old rabbit. Suddenly, Kuroi remembered what her dream was about. Though, it seemed more like a video reel for memories... Horrifying memories... Memories of that tragic night when her family was murdered...

[END]


Looks like Kuroi's powers are getting more interesting. Sorry if this chapter want really an adorable chapter. I kinda put it together at the last minute. I didn't have a plot for the chapter already on my head, so I decided to just wing it. :P

*"Stupid banana"

*This is a play on words. Kuroi's name means black in Japanese. So does Kuro. Shiro translates to white in Japanese. Ergo, the kids were making fun of her name because it's a color.

Anyway, let me know what you think in a review and tell me your favorite part and (or) quote.

And since I don't really have any "fun chapters" planned, please tell me what you think should happen in a "fun chapter" and I may use it, but of course I will give credit to your idea. I won't steal it.

But until next time, I will see you in the next update!

POOF!
