Reborn had just finished cleaning his guns when Ayame stormed back into their shared rooms.
"Reborn-san, please tell me you've found a perfect spot to hide a body?" she sweetly asked, venom dripping from every word.
Reborn raised an eyebrow up. "That depends on who you're planning on killing."
"It's pink and looks like a toad," Ayame said, smile still frigid cold.
Ah. Dolores Umbridge. Technically speaking, Reborn had yet to actually meet her, but he had heard enough about her to know she was a headache walking. Thankfully, he would never have to deal with her. Reborn casted Ayame a smug look.
Recognizing it, Ayame snarled. "Just because you don't have to deal with her on a daily basis doesn't mean you get to gloat about it."
Karma was a bitch and Ayame deserved every ounce of it for making Reborn's life hell when he first arrived in Namimori. Now she knew what it was like to deal with someone absolutely infuriating.
The door slammed open and in stormed Dino. The normally cheerful Sky was snarling. "How bad would it be to arrange a hit this early in the school year?" he asked.
That… was mildly alarming. Reborn's other eyebrow rose. While it was infinitely true that his first student was a mafioso born and raised, it was extremely rare to witness Dino willing and easily talking about killing people. Much like Tsuna, Dino was soft hearted and preferred not to kill anyone unless it was the only way left. (He did hit that threshold faster than Tsuna due to the nature of his family history and childhood.)
"That depends," Ayame said with good cheer. "Is it a pink toad?"
"Yes," Dino hissed.
"Then no, not at all," Ayame agreed. "I thought about just snapping her neck but-"
"That felt too swift," Dino finished.
Alarm bells went off in Reborn's head. Never he thought, would he be the one telling people not killing others. Especially when it came to Dino. (Ayame didn't count. She was as loose of a cannon as he was, only restrained by Tsuna.)
"If you kill her now, they'll send someone worse," Reborn felt obligated to point out.
"It might be worth it," Dino said irritated.
Of course. Well Fon better come back soon, before Dino convinced Reborn that it was a good idea to kill this horrible woman.
If not, Reborn would throw Tsuna at them both.
That always worked.
Now, now Reborn. That's not fair. Ayame didn't make your life hell in Namimori. She just didn't tell you anything. (Or visit We Weren't Born to Follow to find out why Ayame and Reborn don't like each other).
Just wait until you meet Umbridge, Reborn. You'll want to kill her too.
Please leave a review on your way. :3 See you on Tuesday 8D
