Getting to Know You

Gokudera and Yamamoto

The two were currently on a roller coaster. Yamamoto having the time of his life, Gokudera, not so much.

A few minutes later, the two get off and Gokudera looks a little on the green side.

"Are you trying to kill me!" Gokudera shouted. "I thought you'd like this kind of rides." Yamamoto said. "Well, don't assume such things." Gokudera said.

So the two began to walk, but they did not know they were being followed. By none other than Dragon, who was also being followed.

"Hm, now, where would the best place be for them, and where the best place for the pineapples." Black Dragon said while staying hidden.

So Dragon kept following until she saw a haunted house. Knowing Gokudera didn't like the roller coasters, he probably wouldn't like it in there, which was perfect. So Dragon formed her illusions, stood at the entrance of the Haunted house, and waited for the two to come, while also keeping an eye out for any problems.

When the two got close enough, she spoke, though, because of the illusions and her personalities, she did not sound the same as before. This personality made her sound like a con-artist.

"Welcome. You two boys look brave. Why don't you two take a trial of courage." Mist Dragon said.

"I don't know..." Gokudera said. "Oh, this could be fun, lets try it." Yamamoto said. "Your type of fun isn't my type of fun!" Gokudera shouted. "Aw come on. Don't be a scaredy-cat." Yamamoto said. This caused Gokudera to flinch, but only Dragon noticed.

"Fine, let's go." Gokudera said as he grabbed Yamamoto's arm and walked in. When they were inside, Dragon jammed the entrance door, and the exit door so the two could not come out until she let them out.

"Adult puppy, the cats are in the bag." White Dragon said into a radio. "Enough with the nicknames." The voice said from the radio.

Suddenly, a shadow loomed over Dragon, but knowing who it was, Dragon elbowed the person, and ran towards one particular place, while being followed.

Inside the haunted house, things were going smoothly, or, badly. It depends on the person's view. On one hand, Yamamoto was having fun, on the other, every corner was a dangerous trap to Gokudera.

But so far, Gokudera hadn't made one sound, which was good for him because he didn't want to expose something. Too bad for him, Reborn was in the control room, looking through special night vision cameras. So everything in the house was controlled by him.

"It's time to make the cat howl." Reborn said as he pressed a button. This caused the coffin that Yamamoto and Gokudera were walking by, to open and allow a vampire to pop out.

This caused the wanted reaction. A cat shriek emitted from Gokudera. Yamamoto was startled, not by the object, but by Gokudera's shriek.

Before Yamamoto could say anything, Gokudera dashed off, only to crash into the exit door. When Yamamoto got there, Gokudera was on the ground, swirls in his eyes.

"Yo, what happened?" Yamamoto said as he helped Gokudera up. "I freaked out, okay." Gokudera said as he rubbed the bump on his head. "No, I mean the cat noise." Yamamoto said.

"Oh, so you heard that." Gokudera said. "What's the matter?" Yamamoto said. Gokudera sighed.

"Fine, since it's already been found out. I'll tell you a little about myself." Gokudera said.

As Gokudera spoke his story, Yamamoto pictured it in his head.

There was once a very rich and successful dog person. He had a very beautiful wife, and a special daughter.

But something unexpected happened. This man fell in love with a street cat. It wasn't the beauty, or her intelligence, but her personality. The two fell in love and committed something that should not have been done.

The result was a child that was part cat, part dog, and part human, but the child did not look part cat, so the father passed the child off as another dog boy. He forbade the street cat from having too much direct contact, but still allowed the two to see each other from time to time.

Then, on the fifth birthday of the cat/dog boy, a tragic event occurred. As the street cat was headed to the mansion to celebrate her son's birthday, the car suddenly skidded and swerved.

The car soon drove off the road and off a cliff. The mother did not survive.

"That's really bad." Yamamoto said. "Of course it is." Gokudera said. Silence over took the two, until Yamamoto broke it. "Well, if you ever have anymore tragic stories, I'll always be there for you." Yamamoto said as he wrapped his arms around Gokudera, which caused a wave of red to cover Gokudera face.

"F-fine. D-do as you please." Gokudera stuttered.

In the control room, Reborn smirked. "Goal accomplished."

Mukuro and Chrome

Dragon was running as fast as she could. Soon, a building came into view, she ran inside. Her pursuers followed after her.

When they all were inside, it was dark, meaning this ride wasn't officially opened. Though that didn't stop Mukuro, who walked further in. Suddenly, the lights turned on, and the entrance and exit doors slammed shut.

Dragon was the one to close them.

"Phew, good thing I have good eyesight and can fly." Black Dragon said, then she took out her radio again.

"The twin pineapples are in the illusions. Poochi and Kakipi have also been separated and locked in the revolving tower." White Dragon said. (1)

"....I'm not going to ask."

"Now that leaves Hibari-san and Tsuna. Oh, what about the others?"

"Leave them be, all we need to focus on is our plans."

"Okay, I guess I'll head over to where Tsuna and Hibari are."

Inside the building, it is revealed to be a house of mirrors.

"Kufufu. Interesting." Mukuro said as he took a few steps. Chrome was utterly confused. What looked like a way out was another mirror.

Mukuro laughed his signature laugh again and took Chrome's hand. Then he started leading her to the exit without bumping into any of the mirrors.

Soon, they made it to the exit door, though one problem, the door was locked.

"Kufufu. It seems we may need to wait." Mukuro said as he sat on the ground. He patted the ground next to him, inviting Chrome to sit next to him. Chrome took the invitation.

Mukuro wrapped his arm around around Chrome, which made her blush a little.

"Kufufu, this situation reminds me of how I found you." Mukuro said. "For that, I am still grateful." Chrome said. "Why don't replay what happened, we could be here for a while." Mukuro said. "Whatever you do is fine by me." Chrome said as she leaned in closer to Mukuro.

Soon, illusions took over their surroundings.

A young Chrome, around the age of ten was walking through the park in her wolf form. Her form was small, but it was still something special, though her parents and school mates didn't see it as something special.

Chrome sighed. She was always alone, her only friends were the full animals. One particular animal was a stray cat. She would visit it every day, though this day, the stray cat was not there today.

Then she heard hissing, it was her cat friend. Chrome ran toward the noise. She saw some dog boys chasing after the cat.

Chrome gasped, the cat headed out onto the street as a car headed it's way. The dog boys stopped to watch, but Chrome kept running.

Soon she got to the cat and picked it up in her jaws, but she had no time to run, so she did the next best thing, she threw the cat to safety, but she wasn't so lucky.

The car hit head on and Chrome went flying on the pavement. Because she was in her wolf form, people didn't pay any mind and walked on.

Chrome whimpered and stood up. It was painful. Soon she walked to where the stray cat had normally slept. It was no longer there, so Chrome was alone again.

Chrome gingerly placed her body on the bed she had made for the stray cat and waited for death to come.

Suddenly, mist began to appear, but Chrome didn't care. Then there was an eerie laugh.

"Kufufu. What have we here?" Chrome looked up and saw a large wolf with one red eye.

"She's just some mutt. Let's leave her here."

"Ken, that's not a nice thing to say, she got hit by a car."

Chrome moved her good eye to look behind the large wolf. It was a blond boy with a scar on his face, and a dark haired boy with glasses.

The large wolf seemed to ignore the two behind him and began to lick Chrome's wounds. She whimpered as she felt short bursts of pain.

Soon the wolf finished and looked at her, and she stared back.

"Do you have anywhere to go?" The wolf said. Chrome slightly shook her head. "Then would you like to come with me." The wolf said.

Chrome began to think, she thought she was of no use, but if she went with this wolf, she could be of some use, so she nodded her head.

"Then bear with me, this could hurt a bit." The wolf said as suddenly as it's red eye glowed. Chrome felt mild pain, but suddenly all the pain was gone, and she could walk without feeling any pain.

Though she still could not see through her right eye.

Suddenly the large wolf changed into a boy. Chrome blinked, then the boy handed her something. Chrome looked at the object, it was a black eye patch with a skull on it.

"If you don't have a mark, people will mistake you for a stray." Mukuro said. Chrome nodded and changed back into her human form.

She took the eye patch and put it over her eye. With that, the boy stood up and helped her up.

"My name is Rokudo Mukuro. That is Joshima Ken, and that is Kakimoto Chikusa." Mukuro said.

"M-my name is Nagi-" She said, but Mukuro placed a finger on her lips.

"You are no longer that girl" Mukuro paused to think "But Chrome Dokuro."

Chrome nodded.

The illusions faded and Mukuro looked at Chrome. She had fallen asleep, but she was nuzzling Mukuro's chest.

Mukuro chuckled and took off his jacket. Then he draped it over Chrome.

In the control room, Reborn smirked.

Hibari and Tsuna

Dragon sighed. Every attempt that she had to get the two alone in a inescapable ride had failed. It was either fail or blow her cover, but blowing her cover was not an option. So she had to take the fail.

The radio in Dragon's pocket vibrated, signaling a message. She took it out.

"Why don't you take a break. I'll take over from here."

"Fine, I'll just take a nap."

With that, Dragon headed to the Japanese playhouse. Which conveniently had a futon.

So Reborn looked through the screens linked to all the various cameras. It was already night and if something wasn't done fast, their final plan would not succeed.

But then a light shined, literally. The ferris wheel was their last hope.

With Hibari and Tsuna, Tsuna was relieved that Hibari wasn't choosing any of the thriller rides. So far they had gone on the Merry go Round, the swan boats, the go carts, and other rides Tsuna thought Hibari wouldn't even think of choosing.

As they were walking, Hibari suddenly stopped. Tsuna almost walked into Hibari's back.

"It is night, we have time for one more ride. What ride do you want to go on?" Hibari said. Tsuna was a little surprised, but shook it off and looked around.

Suddenly a bright light shined in Tsuna's face. When Tsuna looked, Tsuna saw it was the Ferris Wheel.

"That ride." Tsuna said. Hibari merely raised an eyebrow.

So they walked to the ferris wheel and got on. In the control room, Reborn smirked.

Right when the car that Hibari and Tsuna were in, the wheel stopped.

"Eh?" Tsuna said as he looked out. "I guess there's a malfunction in the system." Hibari said as he stood up.

"Well, at least we have a good view." Tsuna said.

True to his word, below them were all the rides. All the lights made them pretty. Silence soon reigned over. Minutes passed and still the wheel would not turn.

"I guess we could be here a while." Tsuna said. "Hm." Was all Hibari said. "Why don't we talk about ourselves. Uh, my birthday is on October 14, my family was small but it seems to have gotten bigger, and I like sweets. " Tsuna said.

Hibari just stared at Tsuna, who was now thinking that his idea wasn't good, until Hibari spoke.

"My birthday is May 5, I like Japanese food" Hibari paused "And I have no family."

"Eh, what do you mean?" Tsuna said. "It's none of your business." Hibari said. Then Tsuna took a bold move that surprised Hibari a bit.

Tsuna sat closer to Hibari and gave a stare that told Hibari he was not going to back down.

Hibari sighed. "Fine."

So Hibari began to tell Tsuna of his past.

A eight year old Hibari was playing with his toys while his mother was watching. Suddenly, the door slammed open. It was Hibari's father, who was in a drunken rage.

Hibari's mother went to Hibari. "Kyoya, go to your room." Hibari was confused but obeyed.

While he was in his room, Hibari suddenly heard crashing and yelling. So he left his room and went to the living room where his parents were. He opened the door and was horrified at what he saw.

His mother was on the ground bleeding and his father was kicking her. Hibari's blood began to boil. Then Hibari's father noticed him.

"You're next, brat." His father said. Tears streamed down Hibari's, but they were not tears of fear or sadness, but of anger.

"I'll bite you to death." Hibari said as he charged. Hibari's father scoffed, but suddenly howled in pain as fangs sank into his flesh. He looked and saw a large wolf biting down.

He tried to throw the wolf off, but could not. Suddenly the wolf had him by his neck, but before Hibari could bite down and end the life, the police charged in and ripped Hibari away from his father.

Hibari fought against the police, but could not break free. Soon, Hibari calmed down and changed back, much to the surprise of the police.

Thy let Hibari go. Hibari merely just stood there as the paramedic took his father away in hand cuffs and his mother in a body bag.

Suddenly a social worker appeared at the door. He tried to approach Hibari, but Hibari growled and changed back to his wolf form.

"Get out." Hibari said in a deadly tone. No one moved. "All of you, get out, or I'll bite you to death." Hibari said.

Everyone too the warning and left. Soon Hibari was left in his house all alone.

Tsuna stared wide eyed after Hibari finished his story.

"Now that you know, what will you do?" Hibari said. At first, Tsuna did nothing, but then he tackled Hibari to the ground with a hug.

Hibari was shocked, but did nothing to push Tsuna away. He just wrapped his arms around Tsuna and they stayed like that for a while, even when the Ferris Wheel moved to ground level, they stayed like that.

In the control room, Reborn smirked and took out his radio.

"Mission Accomplished." Reborn said, but there was no reply. "Hm, I guess she's still sleeping." Reborn said.

Yes, Dragon was still sleeping, but it wasn't of good dreams.

Dragon

A large lizard like creature was walking the halls of a mansion when loud noises caught it's attention. It headed toward the noise and ended up at a set of doors. Inside, it could hear yelling.

"Why won't you give me some of the flame!" A man yelled. "You don't need it!" The woman shouted.

It was then the lizard opened the door just in time to see the man take out a gun and shoot the woman in the head.

Instant death. The lizard was stunned. The man turned and saw the lizard.

"Ah, Dragon. Don't mind this. She's okay." The man said as he walked toward Dragon.

Dragon growled. "Aw, don't be like that. Just give me some Zodiac flame and it will all be better." The man said.

Dragon reared up and soon some flames were spilling out of her mouth and nose.

"Now Dragon, don't do this. I'm your father." The man said. Suddenly the flames turned to a indigo color.

"You're no father of mine." Dragon said as she fired a blast. The man dodged. "You leave me no choice. I'll just have to drink your blood once you're dead." The man said as he fire some shots.

But being a dragon, her hide was tough, so none of the bullets pierced.

"Leave now and you can live." Dragon said. "As if." The man said and kept firing, that is until he ran out of ammo.

Dragon gave him no time to reload as suddenly Dragon's claws grew very large and she used them on what used to be her father.

Blood splattered everywhere, leaving a gory scene. Though all was not silent as laughing could suddenly be heard.

"Kufufu. What has happened here."

"Murder. What else does it look like, Mukuro." Dragon said.

"Well, if someone finds this, then it wouldn't be good. People would be blaming people, such as Giotto-sama." Mukuro said.

"Then we shall make it seem like and accident." Dragon said as she turned to the fire at the fireplace. Then she began to blow air mixed with gases from her fuel stomach.

The fire began to violently flicker as Mukuro began to pack things needed. Soon the fire had spread and the two were were walking away from the mansion that was set a blaze.

"Kufufu. Still in the past I see." Mukuro said in Dragon's mind, for she was still a sleep.

The dream was replaced by a green scenery and a lake. Dragon was in her original dragon form, she turned and saw Mukuro.

"I have no choice in the matter." Black Dragon said.

"Maybe it's because you haven't gotten over it. Your personalities don't help much at all." Mukuro said.

"It doesn't matter if I have split personality. All that matters is that what's done is done." Black Dragon said.

"Kufufu. If that is what you want." Mukuro said.

The scene disappeared, and Dragon woke up. She was in a cold sweat, and was shivering violently.

"Never, never again." Dragon said.
