Ryu- Okay, here's another update for you.
White Dragon- Enjoy!
HikariNoTenshi-San – Don't worry, this will work out fine. I have a rough draft, with an ending that hopefully will make you happy.
-Shiroix3 – Oh, I thought the way I spelled it looked weird. Thanks for the notification.
yuki-nekolin – Gokudera 's ears are special. They are the upright ones, similar to a cat. So it can be either, and yes, it's possible to make that kind of onigiri. I made some before, it was a bit messy, but still looked like the animal.
Silver Star Celine- I'm glad you liked the cuteness I put into it.
Wind-master-redmoon – It's good you liked it.
The Locusts
The next day, Tsuna was still blushing from what happened yesterday. He hadn't expected things to turn out like that, but for him, it was okay.
It seemed like Gokudera's and Yamamoto's day went fine as well, yesterday. They seemed more friendlier. Though his bubble was popped when Dragon appeared and reminded him of that cursed information.
Now Tsuna was blushing even more than before. Hopefully he'll stop blushing by the time they got to homeroom. Thankfully, he did stop blushing.
Classes were normal, lunch was normal, if you count Tsuna starting to go to the reception room now, the rest of the school day was normal, that is, until everyone went home and only Tsuna's pack was left.
As everyone was about to the leave the classroom when suddenly Dragon came crashing threw the window. Tsuna had noticed that she was not present during school, maybe this would explain why.
"Oops, uh, don't mind me." White Dragon said as she got up and brushed the glass off her.
"Is it them?" Mukuro said. Dragon sighed and nodded. "Tsunayoshi, why don't you and your pack go for now." Mukuro said as he pushed them out, but unfortunately, he didn't successfully push them out when the reason Dragon came crashing threw, flew threw the window.
Just from looking at them, Tsuna could tell something was wrong, no, something was different about them.
"Oh, most of the rare ones are already here. How lucky." One person with vulture wings said. "All we have to do is find the other one and we'll be able to do the experiments." A person with magpie wings said. (1)
But before anything could be done, Dragon rolled up her sleeves. The first thing to catch Tsuna's attention were the marks shaped like dragons on both of Dragon's arms. The other thing was that there were metal shackle like bracelets on Dragon's wrists.
But they were no longer bracelets when suddenly the metal began to changed and shift into blades. Then red flames engulfed them.
"Human experimentation is against the law." Black Dragon said. "Hah! These people are no longer human!" The one with vulture wings said.
"Fine. Animal experimentation is against the law." Black Dragons said. The magpie one hit the other on the head.
"Well, it doesn't matter. When we figure out what makes them have the morph ability, we'll be rich." The magpie one said.
Dragon growled and charged. The magpie dodged, but the vulture was cut on the arm.
"Hah! That didn't do any-" The vulture said before crying out in pain as the red flame appeared and engulfed his arm. Soon it dissipated and left the vulture's arm severely burned.
"We don't have time for this, grab the morphs." The magpie said as he went for Mukuro. Unfortunately for the magpie, Mukuro was ready and had his trident out. He swung, but the magpie dodged.
Tsuna was as ready when the vulture appeared by his side and grabbed him. Then the vulture pulled out a needle, but before the contents of the needle could be injected, a tonfa came flying out of no where and hit the needle away.
Tsuna turned to look in time to see a large black wolf charge, then lunge at the vulture, successfully setting Tsuna free.
This time Tsuna was ready when the magpie suddenly came flying at him. Tsuna changed into his wolf form, it was the pup version. Since the target was no longer tall, the magpie rammed into the vulture.
Hibari jumped back and grabbed Tsuna by the scruff of his neck and walked to where the others were. The two birds were in a mess. One was the other bird, and two, with the desks.
"Argh! Get off me you bird brain." The magpie said. "No, you're the bird brain!" The vulture said.
Though the two didn't have time to say anything else when chains appeared and wrapped around their necks.
"Oya, when did you join Vindice." Mukuro said. "Shut it." Black Dragon said as she tightened the chains. (2)
"You don't have us quite yet." The magpie said with a smirk. Dragon tensed, but did not have enough time as talons went through one of her shoulders.
Dragon looked and saw a fairly large crow. The crow gave her no time to counter as it forcefully took it's talons out while throwing her across the room.
Then it suddenly turned to the grow and lashed out at Hibari. Not wanting Tsuna get hurt, Hibari dropped Tsuna and shielded him.
This caused him to take the brunt of the blow and cause him to go flying. The crow not finished, lifted it's other talons and made to strike Tsuna.
Time seemed to slow as Tsuna could hear his own heart beat. The heart beat was steady and soft, but it soon picked up pace and became louder until time went back to normal and Tsuna changed size instantly and latched onto the leg.
But this was not enough as the crow began to swing Tsuna around. Then it started banging Tsuna against the wall until he let go and flew away from the crow. Though this did not stop the crow, it landed and began to walk towards Tsuna.
Across the room, Dragon was secretly doing something. She silently called forth a orange flame.
"Let's hope you're just like you ancestor Giotto, Tsuna." Black Dragon said as she threw the orange flame with her good arm. Unfortunately, the crow was in front of Tsuna, but it moved as soon as it sensed the projectile.
"Hah! You missed." The vulture said. "Who said I was aiming for the crow." Black Dragon said.
The orange flame hovered above Tsuna for a second, and then landed on Tsuna's head and disappeared. Silence took over, and just as the vulture was about to speak again, there was a loud snarl.
The crow had no time as a larger than normal wolf attacked, but that was only part of the abnormal, the wolf that everyone assumed to be Tsuna had a orange flame mane and the same flame was gracing it's feet.
Tsuna was about to aim for the neck, but Dragon stopped him.
"Wait, there should be something in the wing." Black Dragon said. Tsuna listened and pounced on the crow. Then he looked through the feathers until he found a metal object. Thinking back to what was said, Tsuna grabbed the object and destroyed it.
Immediately results happened. The crow began to change until it turned into a girl. Mostly everyone gasped, okay, only Chrome, Yamamoto, Gokudera, and Tsuna gasped.
"No! Our wild card. Common, we have to get out of these chains." The magpie said. "You should have done that when I was out." Black Dragon said as she kicked them both unconscious, and as she made to pick them up, she stumbled backwards and was caught by Mukuro.
"Whoa. The room is spinning." White Dragon said. "Kufufu. Perhaps it's best if we go to the infirmary." Mukuro said.
Everyone agreed. Tsuna carried Hibari, being that only he could carry Hibari alone because of his size. Ken and Chikusa carried the bird brains, Yamamoto carried the girl, and Mukuro carried Dragon, much to her dismay.
The injured were placed on the cots, except for the bird brains. Wounds were tended and Chrome had to leave the room because she was overwhelmed by the blood.
Dragon had the worst of everything, but much to everyone's shock, when Mukuro cleaned Dragon's wounds, much to her dismay again even if it was a cloth, her wound was gone. Dragon moved her arm to check her shoulder, and winced.
"Well, at least the wound is gone." Black Dragon said.
"Do you mind explaining?" Hibari said as he woke up.
"Well, okay. Um, those two birds are part of a group called Estraneo." When Dragon said that, Ken growled loudly. (3)
"As I was saying, that group kidnap people for the sake of 'science'. They do horrible experiments just to get results that will never appear." Black Dragon said.
"What do you mean?" Yamamoto said. "Let's see. Um, it's like trying to find the meaning of life, or why death happens." Black Dragon said.
Then suddenly everyone began to ask questions, but Dragon stopped them.
"One question at a time." Black Dragon said as she pointed to Gokudera. "What'd you do to tenth?!" Gokudera shouted.
"Nothing bad." Black Dragon said as she pointed to Yamamoto. "How did you heal so quickly?" Yamamoto said.
"Something similar to what I did to Tsuna." Black Dragon said as she pointed to Tsuna. "What's 'Vindice'?" Tsuna asked.
"It's a group that maintains balance for society so that nothing goes out of control. Now, any more questions." Black Dragon said.
"Kufufu. What are you doing in Vindice?" Mukuro said. Dragon choose to stay silent, then decided to whistle.
Wanting the answer, Mukuro got really close to Dragon's face and asked nicely. "Please answer the question."
Dragon pushed Mukuro's face away and sighed.
"You'll kill me if I tell you." Black Dragon said. "Try me." Mukuro said. "I'm the founder of Vindice." Black Dragon said.
At that, Ken and Chikusa tried to go after Dragon, but Yamamoto and Gokudera stopped them. Mukuro's eye merely twitched.
-TBC-
1. Vultures and Magpies were birds I thought were villain like.
2. Vindice are the people who capture, or punish anyone out of line in the mafia. I wasn't sure about the spelling, so I looked at the manga scanalation. I thought I would use them.
3. Estraneo is Mukuro's, Ken's, and Chikusa's old mafia family. Because they have a history of doing experimentations, I decided to use them.
Ryu- Well, I hoped you enjoyed the chapter.
White Dragon- (Runs past with Ken and Chikusa hot on her tail)
Ryu- Hm, I guess they're still angry. Well, that's because-
Mukuro- Let's not spoil it for the readers.
Ryu- Uh, okay. Um, oh, I will post a picture of Tsuna's new form on deviant. Just look on my profile for the link.
