You'll probably be seeing a few more chapters today because I'm trying to distract myself from my allergies. Hahaha -laughs awkwardly-


"The world's a strange place," I murmured in the midst of sweeping in the hallways. Kyoko and Hana looked at me curiously.

"Why would you say that Asakura-chan?" Kyoko asked.

"It's full of good things, bad things, and in-between," I murmured blankly.

"I guess that's true," Hana said, thinking.

"Though, I guess school is something 'in-between," I muttered. The three of us laughed.

"Have you reconsidered joining the family?" Reborn asked me. I blinked. Why was he following me walking home?

"I already said no," I said. He continued to walk beside me and looked at me for a moment.

"I've noticed that you've taken a liking to Hibari Kyouya," He said. I forced down a blush and frowned at the child.

"I don't," I said simply. Wow, this kid's sharp!

"Hibari's part of the family you know." I paused mid-step but quickly returned to walking normally.

"That's none of my business," I said. I could see the child just smiling unexpectedly at me. IT'S IN HIS EYES! I tried picking up my pace, but he had no trouble keeping up.

"I know about your incident with him." Ok, now I seriously froze. "Your many encounters and your lustful actions…"

"KID. HOW OLD ARE YOU!?"

"One."

I nearly cried, he stated it so simply… Was my job that obvious?

"You're no normal baby, I can tell," I muttered.

"It's not that obvious, so don't worry about that," He had mischief in his eyes.

"… It's going to cost me to keep you quiet, isn't it?" I asked. He just looked at me and I sighed and crouched down.

"Join the family and I promise to keep it a secret," Reborn said. "Or face the consequences."

I shivered as I saw something flash in his eyes. I fell on my bum and looked at him with a startled expression.

"F-fine, I'll join."

"Good, and I'd watch out if I were you." I blinked. I was surrounded by pink smoke again.

THE HELL IS WITH THIS PINK SMOKE!? I blinked as I found myself on a quite comfortable bed with someone hovering over me.

"Uh…" I didn't exactly know what to say.

"Tch, damn ten year bazooka," The man muttered. When he leaned his face closer I got a better look at his features. Oh! He's that man from my first 'futuristic trip'. The one that looked like Hibari! Or wait… If it's ten years… Is this guy Hibari? I heard some chuckling and then I noticed the expression I was making. A pondering pout with a light blush on my cheeks. The hell!? "Mm, even if this is your past self, I don't think you'd mind much if I…" He trailed off and I understood what he was talking about.

"Hey! Hands off," I growled and snatched his hands. I gasped as I found myself trapped in a passionate lip lock with the stranger. I was pulled into a tight embrace as our tongues twirled around. When we finally parted, I was rasping for air and holding only him tightly. I saw him smirk and some mirth twinkled in his beautiful, sharp eyes. I gasped again as he pressed his lips against my collar and nibbled on my skin. I held back a moan.

He must have noticed this because he paused momentarily and I could feel his warm breath on my neck. He smiled against my skin and then he bit me.

"Ah!"

POOF!

I found myself sitting on the spot I was before I was shot by the bazooka, holding onto my neck with a large blush on my cheeks. I saw Reborn smirking at me and some beat up kid with an Afro and cow suit.

"It looks like you had fun," Reborn said. I scowled. If he weren't a baby, I would totally pummel him! He doesn't even act like a one year old! I reached out to grab him to give him a nuggie but he jumped and I fell flat on my face. "Nice panties."

I WILL KILL THIS KID!
