"I told you, you'd be bored here."
Shoichi glanced at me from the corner of his eye before looking back towards the robots. I frowned at his statement. I wasn't bored, I was worried. I should've gone with the others when they mentioned they were going to Kokuyo Land, but I had already promised Shoichi.
"Shoichi I'm not bored, just..." Shoichi turned to give me his full attention. "I'm worried about my friends." His eyes widened as I whispered the last part.
"Oh, that's right. Namimori students are being attacked lately. I'm glad you haven't been hurt. Have any of your friends been attacked?" I smiled at Shoichi; he worried too much.
"Of course I haven't been hurt; I study Bojutsu, you know?" I nudged him in a teasing manner. "Thankfully, nobody close to me has been attacked, but enough about that. You've been waiting for this day for months! Let's make sure we see everything." I tugged his arm to visit the next booth.
"Why is everyone staring at me Sho-chan? It's a bit unnerving," I awkwardly pulled on my skirt trying to avoid the strange stares.
"They are shocked a cute girl is actually here." Shoichi mumbled under his breath.
"Huh? You were mumbling, Sho-chan." I looked over my shoulder at him as his face suddenly turned bright red. "N-nothing! Agh, my stomach." He bent over in pain.
"Shoichi, I wonder if you'll ever outgrow your stomach aches."
Still bending over in pain, he moaned an "I hope so."
"We've seen everything?" Shoichi nodded at my question heading towards the exit. "Are you sure? I don't want you to miss anything."
"I'm sure, let's go." As we walked out of the crowd, my thoughts went back to Tsuna. I was really worried; it wasn't that I don't believe in Tsuna, but a lot of our classmates had been hurt already, including The Disciplinary Committee.
"Sho-chan, I'm gonna head home." I turned around to look at the boy a few steps behind me. "Even if I don't know much about robots, I really had fun today! I'm happy that you let me come with you. I always enjoy spending time with one of my best friends."
"Miyu-chan..." He stared at me with a shocked expression. "I-I'm happy you feel that way. I didn't want you to have to go anywhere that would bore you." He rubbed the back of his head as he spoke.
"Well I'm off, bye!" I waved and headed down another street.
"Bye, Miyu-chan." Shoichi slightly waved back.
I let the smile drop from my face as soon as I'd turn down another street and was out of Shoichi's sight. I was really worried about Tsuna and the others. I started to jog trying to get home faster.
It wasn't long before I was standing in front of my house. I quickly opened the door and slipped off my shoes, heading upstairs to my bedroom.
"I should probably change out of a skirt and into something easier to move in." I opened my closet pulling out a pair of jeans and an old t-shirt, and after slipping them on, I turned towards my Bo Staffs.
Opening the case, I looked at the two I owned. I spotted the purple one my father had gotten me; I didn't typically use it often, and the other was a plain brown color. I quickly pulled out the purple one and walked out of the room. My parents had gone out before I left with Shoichi, and I was thankful I didn't have to run into them on my way out while carrying the Bo staff.
I quickly ran through Kokuyo Land towards the main building. I could hear what sounded like fighting deeper within the building. I came to a stop, glancing down a dark hallway that I was sure would lead to towards the sounds of fighting.
It wasn't so much that I was afraid of the dark; it was just a rather eerie place. I closed my eyes for a second, attempting to compose myself. They might need my help. Now is not the time to be paranoid.
After opening my eyes, I gripped my Bo staff tighter and ran down the hall.
Finally, I got to a room where I saw Tsuna, who looked oddly more mature and his voice had deepened quite a bit, a flame was burning on his forehead and his eyes were glowing a beautiful orange color that matched the flame. Though, I couldn't understand why Gokudera and his sister were attacking Tsuna.
"Tsuna's absorbing the attacks with his own body to protect them." I heard Reborn speaking from the other side of the room. As he spoke Tsuna went behind Gokudera and hit him. "Basically, he's intuitively striking at your nerve centers."
Gokudera's sister, Bianchi, spoke up while trying to attack Tsuna. "Intuitively? That's ridiculous!" I noticed her eye had a strange marking around it as Tsuna knocked her out also. He slowly lowered the siblings to the ground.
"Sorry...to keep you waiting."
Tsuna glanced at me before turning towards Reborn. "Reborn, treat them all right?" Reborn walked towards the two on the ground. "Now don't get cocky. Miyuki help me treat them while Tsuna finishes this." I nodded; I didn't exactly know what was going on but helping them came first.
"Mukuro, I know you're alive." Someone stepped out of the shadows with his dark blue hair spiked around the crown of his head. Looking up at his face I noticed he had two different colored eyes, though the red one seemed to have a number within it.
"Miyuki, if he attacks you avoiding getting hit with his trident. That's how he took over the others bodies." I turned to look at Reborn, shocked; he's able to take over bodies that easily?
"Kufufufu; I admit that's your fighting instincts have increased remarkably. Though, it would be troublesome for me if you got too carried away. Have you 'sensed' there is a battle realm I haven't used?" The boy before Tsuna spoke in a mocking tone.
"The fifth realm...human." Reborn spoke.
"That's right. The human realm, the very one we live in of all realms, it's easily the ugliest and most cruel. I'm not being cynical, I truly find this realm and it's skill repulsive." As Mukuro spoke, he lifted his hand to cover the red eye. "I had hoped I wouldn't need it. This human realm is truly the ugliest..."
I noticed his aura was dark and his right hand turned a purple color. I quickly turned to the two laying before me, getting on my knees, I needed to help them in any way I could.
As I turned to stop any bleeding I saw on them, Tsuna began fighting Mukuro. I tried not to let it distract me too much. Gokudera and Bianchi were my priority at the moment.
I glanced up as Tsuna was thrown into a wall. I heard Mukuro talking about his strength to Tsuna.
"What? His aura!" Mukuro cried about as the flame around Tsuna's forehead seemed to grow stronger.
"If that was all the strength you had, I'd be disappointed." Tsuna reached towards the flames on his forehead, lightening his gloves in the process.
"Do it, Tsuna! Show him the power of the X gloves!" Reborn called out to Tsuna.
I relaxed a bit; it seemed Tsuna would be okay.
"How is everyone?" The flame died out as Tsuna turned towards us.
"No need to worry, the Vongola medics are here." Reborn answered Tsuna.
"How are you? You weren't hurt too bad were you?" I stepped towards Tsuna looking him over.
"I'll be okay, but what are you doing here?" He looked at me in confusion.
"Well, I was really worried about you. I felt bad I turned you down about coming here to begin with, so after I finished my plans I headed over here." He nodded at my response and turned towards Mukuro.
"He's not dead, is he?!" I smiled softly as Tsuna cried out, worriedly. He really did have a good heart.
"You're too soft." Reborn spoke, contradicting my own thoughts.
"Stay away from him. Mafia doesn't deserve to touch him!" A boy called out crawling towards Mukuro with another boy doing the same by his side.
Tsuna frowned at them. "He used you, why do you care so much?"
"This is nothing compared to what the mafia has put us through."
Three dark figures wrapped in bandages walked stepped into the doorway. I stepped back bumping into Tsuna when I saw them.
"Vindice." I heard Reborn speak.
Three chains came out and wrapped around the three boys on the ground, I forced myself to look away when I noticed them dragging their bodies. Did they have to be so rough on people who were already clearly injured? Reborn spoke about who they were and that they probably wouldn't be let off easy.
I frowned while I thought about everything, the mafia really is dangerous. I'm just a normal middle school student, is it really wise of me to join the mafia? I turned to see Tsuna had passed out from the strain on his body and glanced at the others around me who were hurt and being treated by medics. I couldn't just walk away from all this and act like it didn't happen, I guess I would be joining Tsuna's family after all.
I noticed from the corner of my eye Reborn smirking, I wouldn't doubt that he knows exactly what I'm thinking.
Miyuki
It's strange, you are always online...
Byakuran
Is it?
Miyuki
Don't you have friends to hang out with?
Byakuran
You're the only friend I need :3
I'd hate to be out of reach if you ever need me Miyu-chan
I froze and found myself re-reading those words multiple times. He didn't really mean that did he? I thought back to past conversations… there were times I was worried and just needed someone to take my mind off things. He always did that, didn't he? Without me even telling him how I felt it's almost like he just knew.
Miyuki
Thank you, I may not know you in person but I really treasure our friendship.
Byakuran
It doesn't have to be that way Miyu-chan~
Miyuki
What?
Byakuran
Your older brother goes to a university here in Tokyo right? Maybe you could visit him this summer?
Miyuki
My parents wouldn't let me go to Tokyo alone though, even if my brother was waiting for me.
Byakuran
I wonder what Sho-chan would think of Tokyo~
I sat back in my chair thinking about the conversation I just had with Byakuran, I know my parents trust Shoichi so maybe they would be okay with it if he went with me? After all, Naohiko would be there too. I reached for my cell phone to text my older brother.
-Nao-nii, I wanna visit you in Tokyo!-
I sat back and waited for him to reply, he responded a few minutes later.
-Oh? I was planning to head home for the summer, but if you wanna come here I guess that's okay.-
-Mom and dad won't let me go by myself though, would you mind if Shoichi went too? I mean if everyone agrees to it.-
-Sure! Ask them and text me later.-
I smiled at the text, Naohiko could be annoying but he's still a good brother. I looked up Shoichi's name in my phone before texting him.
-Sho-chan! Let's go to Tokyo, ask your mom okay? Naohiko said it's okay to stay with him?-
My phone went off telling me he texted back, looking at my phone I laughed.
-What? Tokyo? Why are we going to Tokyo?!-
I moved and fell back onto my bed laughing imaging Shoichi panicking about going to Tokyo.
-Please Sho-chan, we need to experience Tokyo!-
Around fifteen minutes later, I got a response from him.
-Mom says it's okay if your parents are okay with it.-
-Great! Let me ask them!-
I ran downstairs to the kitchen where mom was making dinner. "Mom, can I got to Tokyo and see Nao-nii if Shoichi goes with me?" Mom stopped stirring dinner and turned to give me an odd look.
"You and Shoichi go to Tokyo alone?" She turned away from the stove and walked towards the living room.
"Eisuke, Miyuki wants to go to Tokyo and see Naohiko with Shoichi." My father turned to look at his from some paper work he had. "Have you talked to Naohiko and Shoichi about it?" My father questioned me.
"Yeah, Nao-nii said it was okay with him and Shoichi's mom said it was okay if you are okay with it." He nodded at my answer and looked thoughtful for a moment.
"You'll behave? I guess if you stay with your brother it'll be okay." I smiled as he spoke.
"Thanks dad!" I went to hug him. "I promise I'll behave and Naohiko usually takes care of me." Pulling away I smiled at my father, he was probably as tall as Yamamoto now that I think about it.
"Call your brother and make arrangements and make sure Shoichi's mother is okay with them."
Okay, first! Please don't meet random people from the internet, if you do make sure you have a few people with you. It's really dangerous, Miyuki will be with Naohiko and Shoichi. Miyuki really needs to meet Byakuran in person for this story to work out how I pictured it...
