Jabberwocky.

Fray sat on his own table and peered at his own son and daughter. They were both dressed similarly to him, the only difference was the fact that their face weren't bandaged. "Did you call, Father?" The chief warden of Vindice asked calmly. She was still holding her riding crop, signaling that she indeed rushed from one of the torture section. "Yes," Fray sighed.

R chuckled as he looked at his sister's direction, probably laughing at Fray for calling Fin when she's in the middle of her personal enjoyment. "Any particular reason?" Fin asked. R nodded, he also wanted to know why he needed to drag his sister out of the sacred chamber of torture. "Are you two still angry at Estraneo for stealing the anti-Rainbow matter?" Fin clenched her riding crop, almost breaking it. And R gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

"Yes." They both said in perfect sync, both sounding displeased.

Fray smiled under his bandage. "Then fetch me Jabberwocky." Both Fin and R looked excited. Jabberwocky had been their greatest source of curiosity for a while now. A creature who's not an Arcobaleno, and yet his body didn't reject the anti-Rainbow matter. They've tested it on some prisoners, and all of them died. It was a shame, and a great discovery.

"Are we supposed to kill him?" R asked. "No, no, no! Don't kill him, Aaron! I want to try being that child's warden. I can lock him in my personal water tank." Fin said to R, who looked utterly confused. "Sister, we're Vindice. We don't favor anything or anyone." R said as he scratched the back of his head. "I said I will lock him in my personal water tank." Fin pouted.

"Serafina, Aaron, I haven't finish my order." Fray said as he clicked his tongue. The chief warden and the vice warden fell silent, and returned their attention to their Father. "For now, you just need to capture him. What we do next will be decided after we have him." And then he disappeared, his null pacifier glowing as he left.

Aaron and Serafina looked at each other with confused expression before disappearing as well.

oOo

Mammon inhaled a deep sigh as she reread Luche's letter for the thousandth time. This really was happening. The cure of the stupid curse was out there, waiting to be found. She sighed again. "My oh my," She took out a roll of his tissue and frowned at it. "I need to tell the boss…" Mammon jumped from the balcony and flew silently.

She knocked the door to his boss' room and hoped for the best. "Come in," The voice was the normal tone, which meant he's not really drunk or in a bad mood. Mammon came in, and hoped that her luck will stay.

Xanxus was sitting with his feet on the table. A bottle of tequila was opened beside a stack of paper works. This was one of the days the boss actually did something, probably because he was bored. "What is it?" The red-eyed man asked calmly, something that he rarely ever does. "I… need to take an extended leave." This was the moment Mammon feared. Getting leaves in Varia were rather difficult since she was one of the important members. "For?" Xanxus growled. He didn't look really angry, but his tone and facial expression had shifted from the pleasant one (as pleasant as Xanxus could pull anyway) to slightly angered.

"I need to find the Jabberwocky." Mammon whispered, but quietness of the room actually made it audible. "It's the about the Rainbow, is it?" Xanxus asked as he took a sip of his tequila. Mammon flinched. Her boss really had a good sense for a normal human. She nodded. "I'll help," Mammon actually gasped. "I want that guy's ability as well. A sure-fire assassin is helpful to have in an assassination squad like ours." Xanxus yawned.

"Will you ask the whole Varia?" Mammon asked. She really didn't need the whole Varia move, she alone is enough. "No, just me." Xanxus took another sip of tequila. Mammon nodded. "I have someone I will want to ally with, boss, can I?"

"As long they have info on what we're searching." Xanxus signaled her to go out of the room, which Mammon complied. She took out a cell phone from her loose robe and dialed a call.

"Innocenti? It's Mammon. I'll pay you two million euro if you can get me any information about the Jabberwocky." With a few dial tones and everything, Mammon managed to get a hold of a certain professor who had disappeared for a few weeks because he went searching for the Jabberwocky's number. His name is Verde Sparks.

This man could just be the right man to ally with.

oOo

"Here you go, Master." I-Pin smiled as she served an oolong tea by her master's table. "Please don't call me that, I-Pin dear." Fon said as he received the green cup with a smile. The teen girl with two braids blushed and gave a shy smile. "Y-yes, F-Father." The former martial artist said behind the tray before running away as fast her Qipao allow her to walk.

Fon sighed as he looked at his former student and now his foster daughter. He opened the letter he had received a few weeks ago for the second time since he got it. Luche had sent it in an ungodly time when he was busy taking care of I-Pin's adoption papers and he only read it without giving it much attention. When he really examined the letter, he took a deep sigh.

"It seems that I really need to depart to Italy…" The Chinese man sighed again. He called his foster daughter and asked her to prepare everything.

Fon took a pen and a paper. He wrote a thank-you letter to Luche and smiled. "I will also need information, won't I?" The martial artist inhaled deeply and dialed a number with the cell phone I-Pin left on the table.

"Ah, Ni Hao. Yes, I'll be brief. May I ask for a favor and an alliance, Reborn?"

oOo

"I am the great Skull! And I request the aid of Shimon Famiglia in finding the Jabberwocky!"

"Who on Earth is this kid, Enma?" Adelheid shook her head tiredly. Enma only smiled as he tapped Skull's helm.

"I don't really know him, but he seemed interesting."

Oookay so I'm thinking to make the words in this story's chapters constantly about 1000 words-ish (thanks to a brilliant suggestion by Eli and Onee-chan)what do you guys think? And yes I made Mammon a girl. Why? Because of the hat she wore when they went looking for Fran XD
