Nevertheless, this is a bit a no-good chapter…..enjoy!

Chapter 13: Apologize

"Chrome-chan? What are you looking for?" Mukuro's brother asked in a conservative manner, seeing the innocent Chrome who seems to be looking for something inside Rosso's room.

Chrome answered "Ano…Shichirou-sempai, have you seen a silver diamond necklace around here?"

"No…I haven't my dear. Is that a gift from Mukuro-kun?"

"No, no, it's actually from Hibari-san. He gave it to me as a gift from my Return party."

It seems that somehow the jewelry is so precious to her; as to how Shichirou thought it was. After all, Hibari never handed a gift to someone for no reason. It would be ashamed if he found out that she lost it. Hibari might get furious and that is something every person should avoid from happening.

"Ano….you don't need to bother looking for it anymore Chrome-chan. I'll just have my subordinates look for it for you. After all, the Estraneo's laboratory base is quite large that it would be completely impossible for a cute girl like you to find it all by yourself."

"Uh…will you….give it back to me once they've found it?'

"I sure will Chrome-chan!" he said with a kind smile "anyways, while I ask my subordinates to do the job, may I ask Chrome-chan to wear this." He favored, handing her a white and light pink Lolita dress.

Meanwhile, at the arena of the towered floors of the base, Mukuro and the others were getting warmed up as Ken gave Hiroshi the first blow.

"You're dead meat for blocking our way!" Ken shrieked, jumping as high as the ceiling and to Hiroshi as he is about to give him an impact.

Hiroshi grab hold of his cross-spear "That won't be necessary!" and he blocked Ken's attack.

"Just because I'm a one-man-show doesn't mean I'll lose that easy! I didn't became boss Shichirou's right-hand-man for nothing." The blonde yelled, casting fire ball illusions at the group.

"Kufufufu….illusions won't beat us."

"Oh they're illusions alright…high class illusions that is." Hiroshi mocked as the fire spheres began causing injuries towards the guild "Oh, and by the way, don't ever call boss Shichirou's guards as mere weaklings!" the blonde gave an assault at Ken, making him unconsciously hurt as he was dropped dead to the ground.

"How did he do that? I just saw him gave Ken an attack. It's impossible for someone to fall ill by just one attack." M.M. wondered.

"You kids are going to be an eyesore for boss Shichirou, its better if you don't see him…Bianco Fiato!" Hiroshi spins his cross-spear at one direction as thick dusts of fog began sprouting from his weapon, making the group fall their visions in blur.

"My eyes….I can't see anything." Chikusa exclaimed, rubbing his eyes with his hands.

"Of course you can't see. The technique that I have just used onto you will make your eyes powerless to see for an hour or two. This way, I could give you your death while you're sightless." Hiroshi ran towards Chikusa and strikes an attack, causing his head to hit the floor.

"What did you do to him?" M.M. questioned, feeling her hands being wrapped lock by the enemy.

"It's a nerve attack. The same hit I did with your doggy friend over there." The blonde replied, pointing his weapon at M.M.'s neck "What now Mukuro? Are you just gonna let this pretty girl die like the rest of your friends? Or you'll just be a nice boy and pull back already? After all, I don't want to hurt girls you know." Hiroshi threatened.

"This man is dangerous as I have expected." Mukuro said in silence while he decides his next move on the enemy.

"Kufufu….you're amusing." Mukuro laughed "this has nothing to do with them. Fight me with that hatred you have instead." He said, pulling out his trident.

"Nothing to do eh? Then I guess you wouldn't mind if I silence her for a minute or two to avoid some noise." And he strikes another nerve attack at the red-haired girl.

"Kufufufu….I must say, for Chrome's brother, you make a good villain!" Mukuro attacked, giving his first blow and finally causing an injury on Hiroshi's cheek.

Hiroshi attacked as well, avenging himself from the pain he was given "Are you blind?" he yells "Don't call me a villain you freak! You're the criminal in this whole charade!"

"Indeed. I sure am the criminal of this whole trouble." Mukuro gives another blow.

Hiroshi blocks the young illusionist, twirling his intersected spear to avoid Mukuro's trident.

"I'm not going to lose you, bastard!" Hiroshi exclaimed, casting blue fires circling around towards the former-Estraneo member "This is for taking Nagi away!"

"Oya?" Mukuro dodges and gives Hiroshi a playful smile "Kufufu….such power. No wonder I've chosen your sister as my vessel."

"SHUT UP!" Hiroshi yells again, spelling out hallucinations of rocks falling from the ceiling "Erasing her memories away is the biggest mistake you've ever done to me! And now you'll pay for that deed!"

"Kufufu…lo nego signore." Mukuro answers, casting volcanic flame illusions at the other mist guardian while he finally got his sight opened from the technique used earlier "Bringing Nagi into my life…I must say…is the most beautiful thing I've ever done in this mortal world."

"ENOUGH! Never shall you speak of my sister again!" Hiroshi shrieked and gave Mukuro a large scar at the back.

Mukuro fell on the ground, terribly agonized by the wound given to him.

"And never shall you lay an eye upon Nagi again!"

"Chrome….Nagi….I hope you forgive me…"

Meanwhile, Dino and Hibari's hands were both busy with Rosso Calibri. The landing platform was full of chains as lightning flames continuously sprout off from the roped metals. It was almost impossible to move in the place; it was as if the area itself was already tied up.

Romario couldn't get off the chopper; he was stuck inside, helplessly watching his boss struggle to fight his former classmate.

"I knew it's not gonna be that easy to pass you." Dino smirked.

"You've changed as much as how Squalo and I remembered you were."

"I am not that weakling before Bronco." Rosso answered back.

"I'm not saying you were a weakling, and I never did."

"Yeah, but Squalo did!"

"Both of you are loquacious! This is why I'd prefer fighting a herbivore without another herbivore!" Hibari said, crashing a pie of chains already.

"You're right. It's not worth it, wasting my time with you fools." Rosso replied, hiking up her arms with her heavy chains creating a large wave approaching her opponents "I'll fry your bones and toast your skins!"

"That's it eh?" Hibari jumped to the ceiling as high as he can, avoiding the shock waves while his self-proclaimed tutor found a pack of chopper boxes to hide from the lightning attack.

"Stop playing hide and seek with me!" Calibri strikes an attack at the boxes where Dino was hiding and another at Hibari.

The prefect dodges again, eventually got a small injury on his left arm from a small spark.

"Rosso! Do you really want us to die so badly?" Dino scolds, giving the female an attack "You used to be a sweet girl back then."

"ENOUGH! I don't want to hear a word! I hate flashbacks!" Rosso swings a chain at Dino, making him to have his pulses shocked by the lightning flames that touched his skin.

Hibari then came in surprise at her back, giving her a hard impact at her head and her stomach.

"I won't….let you…beat me." She struggled to attack despite of the pain.

"You still haven't learned your lesson? Why don't you just give up already?" the prefect blocked before giving a blow at the Estraneo guardian "Don't pretend that you have no care of your past." He said before giving her continuous attacks.

"No….SHUT UP ALREADY!" she yelled, trying to give the blood-luster an attack, but found herself weakened from the wounds that the skylark gave.

Rosso finally fell on the ground; she coughed some blood, unable to carry on.

"If you have regrets on the past, better not carry them all the way to the future." Hibari quoted, passing the female as he walked towards the entrance.

Dino then rushed to the wounded lightning guardian "Rosso….are you okay? Sorry about Kyouya….he's a little too…." All of the sudden, he was cut off as he felt something heavy and slummy wrapping around his arm.

"Don't think that I'm finished yet, Hibari Kyouya." Rosso halted, making the prefect stop.

Feeling his leg was being wrapped by something with scales.

"Snakes?" Hibari uttered, noticing the reptile stopping him to carry on to the entrance.

"How could you have forgotten my one true power? The reason why I was called "Blood Medusa"." Calibri stood up from the ground glaring at the shocked Chavallone leader.

Hibari turned his head back, seeing in surprise that the opponents red locks suddenly grew longer and longer continuously with the ends of her hair turning into viscous groups of red poisonous pythons.

"What are you?" Hibari and Dino began struggling while the red reptiles rapidly increase from the female's hair as they began nuzzling and tying them up with their long lengths.

"Kyouya…don't move. You'll get bitten by these snakes!" Dino warned.

"Are you an idiot?" Hibari talked back "If I don't move….we'll be bitten for sure!"

"You seemed to be impatient about my little ones." Rosso spoke up, her eyes unnecessarily turned just as a snakes' eye as well "If I were you I'd follow what your teacher tells you. After all, my pets are quite hungry."

"Then what do you supposed I should do about this pathetic situation? I told you, didn't I? I'll bite this herbivore to death!"

"Kyouya….if you want to see Chrome again…..you have to follow what I told you." Dino repeated his order, making the chairman stop and follow what he was told.

"Hmm….I didn't know how weak your student is Bronco." Rosso comments, turning her head back to Dino "And Shichirou-sama wanted you to become our cloud guardian….I do not wish for a mere weakling like this person ruin the holy name of our family. This child shall die!" Rosso said as a python hastily went for the prefect's neck to give him a taste of its poison.

Hibari, who had one arm free from the snakes' nuzzle, grabbed hold of the python who was about to bit him.

This of course, shocked both Dino and Rosso as their mouths gasped in surprised.

"Of all the words you can call me…never…call….me….a weakling" Hibari glared, tightening his grip at the snake he grabbed hold off, making it suffocate from his fist.

Rosso inhaled sharply "How did you….get out?"

"I told you, didn't I? This time…for sure….I'll bite you to death!"
