Before the Bullet
Interludes
The Odd Couple
The world had changed.
The city air tasted the same, school was as boring as ever, Dad's sushi was still the best, and the center of his happiness remained the rush of home run and perfect throws.
But Yamamoto knew the world had changed.
And yet nothing was different.
Except…the little guy—that everyone called dame-something—and the crazy school monitor. The little guy smiled less and the monitor was more violent. At the same time, the pair seemed almost friendly to each other.
Yamamoto watched the two when he could—baseball practice took priority of course—but they seemed to disappear so easily. Neither had been particularly social before and no one seemed to have an idea of where they went. He got weird looks for even asking.
He wanted to ask, but that wouldn't be as fun.
Yamamoto would watch them and figure out their game one day.
But more urgent, baseball. And figuring out the boys' names.
Fears
She runs in her dreams. Runs a lot. She can't remember who she is running from but she remembers the color white. And Hana hates it.
She still feels like she should be running when she wakes up and that she should take Kyoko with her.
But she has no where to go and Kyoko would never leave her brother. And her brother…Ryohei will be involved. Big time. Just the thought of him brings up anger, concern, and something she isn't willing to name.
Her instincts, as much as the scream other things, scream dangerous when she thinks of Ryohei.
School's worse. The baseball freak, the crazy class monitor, and the clumsy kid all make her instincts scream. Hana has never been happier to be in the same class as Kyoko, even if the crazy monitor sometimes actually showed up for class. She could protect her best friend if she needed to. Maybe. Hana sometimes dreamed she had protected her before.
She would protect Kyoko again. Kyoko was too nice and Hana missed her smile even though Kyoko smiled at her every day.
No one guessed Hana, but she is an odd choice isn't she? Yamamoto definitely does not know and I will tell you Mukuro and Reborn do not either. I think they were the most common guessed. So now we have five announced, plus any guesses I said were correct. Next five! (Think outside the Vongola group.) Next chapter reveals someone who has not been guessed!
If you're more use to completely English versions, dame is what they translated as "no good." No good Tsuna/dame Tsuna is such an inspiring name for a mafia boss isn't it?
