I planned on using this on the Millefiore-arc mini-saga but I guess after reading the latest KHR manga (and I feel pretty hissy on Byakuran now. *huffs*) I suppose I'll just dedicate this to Genkishi. Mostly a eccentric-type drabbles, through the alleged eyes of two witnesses who had nothing to do with all of these.
I know, I know, the song seems a bit inappropriate, but Iono, spur of moment after hearing this song in Memorial Version?
This is kinda like a AU-ish for some reason. Iono, like I said, spur of moment?
I suppose this one is commemoration for the death of Genkishi in Chapter 148. He was a fairly ok character and I respect him so... which is why this is for him.
Message will ensure the victory of Tsuna in his upcoming Tuna-catching competition... though I just destroyed the mood.
=My Tomorrow
"C'mon! Start running now to a place that's not on maps,
Things to be afraid of, there are none.
Because it's only the 'Now' that can create tomorrow;
Take off, My faraway Tomorrow."
---
"A-ra~! How did you manage to get that in the system?"
"I don't; it just appear after I type in some weird things or something, how should I know!"
"But sis...."
"Yeah, I know, another spur of moment."
"Hey, look at that, isn't that~"
"~No way!"
Mouths open with shock and amazement, the two normal-looking teenagers stared at the monitor screen before them as the older male with ruffled-up, dark-blue hair tried to press any random keyboard button, only to be swatted away by the blue-haired younger sister of his who was seated in a chair in front of the computer placed at the table in front of them.
"Are you sure this is not the latest~"
"~Haven't you read Wakipedia or something?" The girl snorted, scrunching her nose a bit as she tried the reset button. Dammit, it didn't work, she thought as the only conclusion they had is to watch this thing until it finishes. "Anyway, I was just randomly browsing around and then this pop up!" She complained, leaning in front as she adjusted her oval spectacles with her forefinger.
"But, you know," The male, who seem to be older than the female, spoke in a curious tone. "That IS freaky."
"Yeah," the female agreed, nodding slowly, as gray optics glued onto the scene before her. "I know."
Genkishi.
From what the two had knew from reading (too much) information about Katekyo Hitman Reborn, he is known to be one of the best swordsman in the Millefiore, known as the 'Phantom Knight' and all the gist about him. Yeah, these two seems to be well-informed with that kind of world, even though that they are only just... well... they're teenagers.
The female also knew that he uses illusions to fake his 'defeat' with the Varia's Sword Emperor, Superbia Squalo, and knew that he had defeated Yamamoto Takeshi once. What's more amusing is that the female's brother seems to think of him as an idol or something, though she only think of him as somewhat of a git like everyone else.
Yeah, it was an unusual combination for the female to admire that anime, and yet sardonically comment on the characters.
Unfortunately, however....
"It's like watching the whole thing, LIVE FEED!" The male exclaimed, a grin seen onto his face as he picked a chair from across the room, sat beside his younger sister (by a year-and-a-half) and watched the 'not-suppose-to-appear-yet' scene of Yamamoto and Genkishi's battle, Round 2.
"I don't know," The female murmured, leaning back as she scratched the nape of her neck. "This seem look like a fan work to me."
"Nah, impossible!" He scoffed back. "It looks definitely like the real thing to me!"
"But how could they show this when it's not even reached that part in the anime?"
"Just stop complaining, girl!"
"I am not!"
But, instead of not watching, the young teenage girl glued herself onto the scene as Yamamoto Takeshi's attacks manage to give a full-blow onto his opponent, in fluid motion as it they were watching this in real live.
As if they were just in front of them.
"Damn, if we recorded this in MooTube, we'll get lot of hits!"
SMACK!
"I'll give you a damn hit if you don't shut up!" She growled before turning back onto the LCD monitor screen of her computer. Dammit, of all the computer to use, why hers?
---
He couldn't bear the fact that he was betrayed by the person he serves upon all his life in thanks for him saving his life. Dammit, why didn't he listen to his insides and just die instead of following him?
Genkishi couldn't be any stupider.
As the flowers that Kikyo 'implanted' spread further, he pleaded from his mind to be forgiven by this 'God' he calls upon as Byakuran. He was not sure anymore if what to and not to believe. He was a fool. Why?
Why, Byakuran?
This person had saved him from this illness with a cure, and he swore to follow him.
Like a real disciple to a God.
But here he is, slowly dying as Yamamoto stood there, not believing that a comrade would do such a thing. It couldn't be helped, Genkishi thought, couldn't be helped at all.
He knew death is near... he just knew it.
He'll die. As expected.
He had no regrets.
Genkishi finally felt peaceful at the last moment. It doesn't matter now if Byakuran is still a God or not; he had no regrets and he knew that he had done what he is suppose to do.
His role here... in this world...
Had ended.
---
As the screen finally returned to its original prompt where the female had left off from her fanfiction work, she couldn't help it but wipe the small remnant of tear from the corner of her eye as she looked beside her after hearing a loud wail to hear her older brother crying like a stupid sap. He always cry on these stupid kind of things, she thought bitterly.
"Oh, snap out of it," The female retorted, though she knew that it was unfair on what that Byakuran had done. "Dead is dead; his role is done."
"B-b-but... WAAAAHHH~!!!"
Shaking her head, the female teen smiled as she gave a small pat onto her older brother's back.
"Yeah, I know, Byakuran's a bastard for doing such a thing." She reassured. "But Genkishi seems happy on what he did. Haven't you read the latest chapter? He had no regrets. I'm sure he's cool in a better place now." Seeing that he calmed down and sniffed loudly (in which she gave a slight 'eew' moment on that), she chuckled a bit and closed everything from her computer (loosing inspiration in making a fanfiction altogether) as she stood up from her chair and walked towards the door heading outside her room. "Besides," The female added. "It taught me something."
"What is it?"
"You can only look forward on today to make your tomorrow. Genkishi had no regrets; he was definitely looking at the present rather than the future or the past. I'm sure a character like him in real life are very rare and, yet, outstanding."
Somehow, he couldn't bother to wonder what in the world his younger sister is talking about sometimes.
---
A... new life?
"It's always nice to have you around to take care of them!"
Blinking his gray-amber optics, the older male with raven-black hair looked at the blue-haired duo before him, noticing that both of these children seems to look at him as if they were shock to see him.
"Hey, sis...."
"Yeah?"
"Is that... who I think he is?"
"Don't you mean 'was'?"
SMACK!
"Kon! Momiji! Be polite to the guest!" The older woman, who seems to be the sibling's mother, scolded after she whacked the two in the head with a slipper before facing the other adult before her. "Ah, I'm sorry mister... er..."
"Genkishi."
"Right, mister Genkishi! I'm sorry, they don't usually stare and talk like that... Ahaha, they must have been watching too much cartoons again in the internet, I presume." Warning glare from their mother. "Anyway, I hope you don't mind much about watching them while I go out to do some errands."
"None at all."
"Good, then, glad to hear that." She smiled as the mother looked at the siblings before patting them both on their heads. "Now, be good to Mister Genkishi, don't make any rude comments or whatsoever and treat him as if you know him, ok?"
'We do know him!' The duo, Kon and Momiji, thought simultaneously from their subconscious.
"Now, I'm off to work. Ta ta~!" Closing the door behind her, the blue-haired siblings looked at each other, and then at the person.
Who would have thought....
"I thought you're dead?"
Genkishi seem to twitch at the straight-forward comment from the female as he looked at her as if she was something like a freak.
"How'd~"
"THAT FREAKING BASTARDS KILLED YOU, MAN!" The male, Kon, shouted as he faced in front of the older male's face and shouted as if he was suppose to take care of him but failed. "DAMMIT, DON'T TRUST THOSE BASTARDS NOW!"
"I think there is something called 'Divine Intervention' or something along those lines?" The female, Momiji, commented, adjusting her spectacles as she watched Kon admired the male that was only seen in comics and all. "Either way, welcome to the 'real' world, mister Genkishi... or, Phantom Knight!"
"..."
"Yeah, watch out for Momiji; she may look like a geek, but she's a psycho. Times twenty."
SMACK!
"OW~!! MOMIJI~!!!"
"DON'T MAKE ME GO BYAKURAN ON YOUR POSTERIOR!"
So this is what it feels like to be normal for once, Genkishi thought, maybe I could handle this after all!
At least he has a new tomorrow to look forward with.
And he knew to himself who to believe now.
Yeah, the siblings' name are Kon and Momiji.
I warned you, this will be a bit AU-ish. And, yeah, Genkishi's thoughts? I dunno... for some reason. Haha, non-fluff, goodness me! And don't worry, the siblings- Kon and Momiji- are too young to have a relation; Kon's fifteen and Momiji's thirteen, so yeah.
Fans of KHR much? And if you noticed something... yeah, I dun want to get sued by using them, so I decided to change their names to parodied the real thing. Mootube? I got that from somewhere. XD
I just destroyed another good moment, huh?
Anyway...
The song is 'My Tomorrow' by Ai Maeda (AiM) from the anime Digimon Tamers, though I used the Memorial version sang by the following: Orikasa Fumiko (Makino Ruki//Rika Nonoka), Imai Yuka (Renamon), Asada Youko (Katou Juri//Jeri Katou), Hirata Hiroaki (Leomon), Nagano Ai (Li Shiuchon//Suzie Wong), Tada Aoi (Lopmon) and Kaneda Tomoko (Calumon).
Woohoo, long, I know!
I don't own the parody things (Wakipedia=Wikipedia, =, MooTube=YouTube), I don't own KHR, Genkishi and the song. I only own my original characters, this drabbles and probably this laptop or something. *shrugs* Yeah, I know. If, by chance, I own KHR, I'll bring Genkishi back to life and make him work in McDonalds.
*snorts* You just ruined the moment.
Anyway, message would make Tsuna be motivated to finally ask Kyoko for a date... or something.
Dammit, I should finish first with those oneshots instead of making this. Ah, well, spur of moment.
