Inheritance Gone Bad
God dammit! Will someone just show up? I growled mentally, not wanting or expecting Mukuro to respond. Thank God he didn't otherwise Chrome will be lacking a beloved friend. If something doesn't happen soon, I'm going to snap and it won't be pretty,
Karen, chill! Mukuro growled before retreating and building up mental defenses before I could retaliate. Unfortunately, the only way I could chill would be if I pummeled something right down to its atoms and that won't look good in the middle of the Inheritance Ceremony even if it is Levi I'm breaking but working on the wall Mukuro brought up was real tempting.
I couldn't see Tsuna's or the other's faces but I knew they were glancing all over the place praying the person who attacked Takeshi would reveal himself or herself. I know because I was doing it. Jitters started and I allowed them to allow me to fidget until Superbi put a hand on my shoulder. I looked up at him; the question of where was Takeshi glimmered unanswered. He, Dino and more than likely everyone in the Varia, saw through Chrome's illusion.
"How is it doctor?" Tsuna was dreading the worst,
"We managed to save his life, but today and the next day will be critical. There is a very good chance he won't ever again walk" had been the doctor's experienced sad answer. I clenched my fist. If Takeshi didn't recover, someone was going to have Jaguar-Shark hybrid after their life if their reason for attacking him wasn't sound, but even if it was self defense against Takeshi (which would happen when Xanxus decides he loves Tsuna) I think I would still try to kill them.
A shrill, ear shredding sound ripped through the hall. Everyone in the vicinity had their hands clasped to their ears in a vain attempt to protect them. I've found covering your ears doesn't do anything to keep sound out of them but this still freaking hurt! My ears are going to ring for a week after this! Explosions of smoke clogged the senses of sight and hearing but not the sixth. Within the confusion of the smoke, someone got inside the Difesa A Circolo and injured the Ninth in a vain attempt to get the Sin. Diletto was very similar to the English word, delete. Could it mean more than 'sin'? Could it mean 'delete' as well? Or am I over thinking this? I wondered in the back of mind, fighting down the fight or flight urges. The smoke finally cleared to reveal the Ninth injured and the Sin destroyed. The Ninth had replaced the original Sin with a faux. I could almost smack him, saying the real Sin was in a vault with the seven flames forming a shield! And saying where it is to boot! Like he implied with the order to close the exits, the culprit will be in the same goddamn room as us! Just as I opened my mouth to rebuke him,
"Ninth!" Ganauche Third yelled. What do you know, not long after he gave that particular information the vault was broken into and the Sin was stolen by the Shimon Family. Looks like I wasn't off the mark.
It took everything I had to not pounce on Kaoru. It was obvious he liked Takeshi and that he appreciated Takeshi's help! Fucking Son of a fucking bitch…wait that doesn't even cover and it applies to the entire Shimon Famiglia. It was hard to listen to them, not just because of screaming rage, but I couldn't believe. Sure the Vongola doesn't have the greatest history but the First Generation was allegedly the golden era. The meeting with Primo was brief but enough for me and Tsuna to believe that Primo would never do that….willingly. The fact that the Shimon family had been obliterated fitted with what little information I had but this is just their side and the Vongola's side of the story has vanished so what the heck are we supposed to do? When Enma asked Tsuna for his opinion and once again, Tsuna surprises me with his answer: he stated the plain and simple fact he had no idea what happened nor could he go back and fix but he knew Primo would never do such a thing. I think he should have tacked on 'willingly' because like he said, we don't know what happened. Naturally that sets the Shimon off as they don't know about the meeting between Primo and Decimo in the Future. Erased memories can be such pains. Next thing that happens involved a declaration of war against the Vongola to 'regain' the Shimon's pride. The only 'pride' that would be regained would be fear. Besides, taking revenge on people who have no idea what happened much less are even related to the mafia world, like Ryohei and Takeshi and Chrome, shouldn't pay for the mistakes of long deceased men.
"STOP!" my scream was lost in the crunch of stone and Tsuna's scream. Alone, without raising a hand, Enma sent everyone flying into the ceiling and walls leaving good sized dents. When everyone stood back up they just got crushed to the floor. Fear locked my limbs and dulled my head. I could only stare uncomprehendingly at the people who defeated the Varia, beat Byakuran and the Funeral Wreaths crushed like ants. A soft crack and shatter drifted across the room: the Vongola rings were damaged but no heed was paid to them by Tsuna. He only had thoughts for his friends.
"It's your own fault. I watched you. I thought the Tenth was someone scary and hateful but turns out he is someone a bit like me. I thought you would be different. We could have understood each other but instead! I find you are just like the rest of the Vongola bosses!"
"STOP!" my voice was finally heard, "Tsuna's nothing like the rest! He shouldn't even be in this world!"
"Shut up!" Adelheid hurled some form of substance. I shifted to tried and avoid them but only got myself clipped on the arm. It stung, like a paper cut but worse. I couldn't move to help Tsuna or the rest of the gang.
"Chrome!" Tsuna yelled.
"Julie you son of a bitch! NO way in HELL can you have date plans with Chrome!" No way. No fucking way.
"Whatever you need to tell yourself, Giaguaro".
