Finally, second chapter is up. It's kind of short, sorry for that, but, still it's pretty good. A new character is introduced and we discover a little more about Leonardo. Anyway, read it and tell me what you think about it, please review!
Celeste was standing next to her father, a tall brown haired man, with an orange flame flickering on his head. His face was darken, even thought the room was filled with light. She smiles, as she took a step forward, in the palace looking room, and stood before the man. She smile, as he lights his hands with a similar flame as it was in his face, and a pair of black gloves with an X on their back appear.
Celeste watch as another man opens the door, and began to shoot into it. She saw as a bullet was about to hit her, but was instantly stop by her father. She then saw her father disappear, as he literally flew against the man and punch him. But he shot again, this time, an odd indigo color bullet that open up and let an indigo color flame hit Celeste's head, she then began to fall.
After a while, Celeste woke up on her house living room, with Leonardo and her mother standing beside her. She was on the big sofa, laid down when she came back. She looks at everyone, even though no one did anything. She then notices the little girl with green hair standing behind everyone, who was looking at her, kind of nervous. Celeste nod as the little girl ran to her and hug her really hard.
"Don't worry Tamiko, I am going to be ok…" said Celeste, as Reborn chuckle.
"Already you have the family feeling. I hope this means that you already remember…" after saying this, Celeste laugh, looking kind of down.
"Mister Reborn, I barely know who I am for what my love ones have told me. The last two years have been tough enough without people pushing me to remember. And you come here to ask me if I remember, I must answer I don't. I still recall your name, since Uncle Lambo holds a grudge against you. Which I would understand if you behave like this all the time; thus I must ask of you something right now: please go away, I am not accepting your offer to tutor me, I can do what I desire to be all by myself." But, once she had talk, everyone realize she was talking of something that hasn't happen.
"Dear, what are you talking about? Reborn came but didn't say anything of being you're…" but she was interrupted by Tamiko.
"No, Momma Sawada, she has remembered the time she meet Reborn for the first time…" once Tamiko talk, Reborn smile, padding the little girl head.
"You are really smart girl. Celeste, you gave me the same answer before. At that time you weren't half the woman you are. Am I right, Leonardo Gokudera?" Leonardo looks at the man with a killer look. "I know your identity, so don't need to worry…"
"What are you guys talking about?" asked Celeste, as Reborn rise his hand and touch a little chameleon that was hiding behind his fedora. The little creature jumps to his hand and transform into a gun. Celeste watches as she instantly panic.
"Reborn, how many times I have told you not to bring weapons to my house. I know you can do with that thing and your bullets, and I am not going to let you do that again!" scream Celeste mom, as Leon transform back to his chameleon form and hid behind his fedora.
"As you say, Miss Sawada!" then Reborn took his lead, as he walk outside of the house.
Celeste watches as the tall man walk outside. Leonardo kept his killer look on the man, responding to the action with a dental click. He moves his look back at Celeste who was silent, still thinking. Her look change for a second, but it was still one filled with horror. She screams, as she began to remember what she just dreamed. She touches her forehead while screaming and calling for someone.
"Dad, daddy; where are your daddy!" she scream by lowering her head, and putting in between her legs and holding herself tightly. Her mother ran to her, while holding her while Leonardo freezes, without an idea to what to do.
"It's ok, dear, everything will be ok…" her mother look at Leonardo, who nod and walk outside the room. Tamiko threw herself on Celeste's side, hugging her as well.
"So, her memory is trigger by me. Curious; I thought I lost my talent to activate things that are dormant…" Reborn imply, as Leonardo look at him, with glassy killer eyes.
"I am not known by my last name here…" he mutters. Reborn look at him lightly.
"What, I reveal your secret identity, Hayato's boy…" once said, Leonardo jumps at him, holding his neck tightly, and pushing him against the back crystal door.
"Don't mention that man's name, or call me his son! Not after what happen two years ago!" Leonardo screams at him, as Reborn chuckle.
"Lucky you, Decimo told me to not touch you, even if I wanted to kill you, or you put a finger on me. But, Decimo never told me to not defend myself!" after he scream, he hold Leonardo's head, throwing him in his back, and crushing his head against it. "Next time you dare to touch me, I won't be as forgiving as this time... Hayato's Son!"
Leonardo was about to attack, when he was suddenly stop by a strange voice. He looks back, seeing a tall man with a sushi cart passing in front of the school. He looks at the man, as he friendly waved his hand at Leonardo. He looks at him, trying to remember who the guy was. But nothing came to him. The man took a lunchbox out of his cart and gave it to Reborn.
"Reborn, here you go, as you order! It's been quite some time since the last time we meet. I didn't remember you being so tall!" joke the man.
"Don't play funny boy, my dear boy. I have trained you before; I know your real weakness…" Reborn respond heard more like a threat than a joke. "Aren't you supposed to be on a plane right now?"
The man look change instantly, as his eyes became dead serious. "Oh, come on, Reborn, everything in its given time, someone must take care of those who stay behind." That wasn't what Reborn wanted to hear.
"Excuses are signs of weakness. Nothing shows a man weakness more than a dumb excuse. Besides, I am here, who would make a move."
"Last time you were there too, and they made their move…" to that, Reborn answer with a shot in the air.
"I won't be caught out of awareness twice, Takeshi!" This time, he was mad. "Anyway, where is your student? Isn't she supposed to be arriving today?"
"Changing the subject, that is so not you." Reborn growled at the response. "She may be arriving any second. She is coming by ship, the airport didn't want her to travel while holding her weapons, and she doesn't let them go not even for a second."
"I'll take my lead then…" Reborn took the sushi, and walk out to the street, as Leonardo stayed on his position, watching over the door. The man waves his hand again, as Leonardo hump.
"Just like your old man…" mutter the man, was he walk to his cart and took off, just as quickly as he arrived.
Celeste was fast asleep again, and was very late at night before she awoke. Leonardo was still on the door on the back of the house, which didn't bother her since it wasn't the first time he did it. She just chuckle at the fact he was actually awake this time. Tamiko was sleeping next to her, fast asleep, with her long green hair still braid into two ponytails. She slowly stood up, standing next to her window, and look at her blurry reflection. She laughs silently, trying not to wake the little girl. She was on her pajamas, which would mean her mom change her.
But it was then she notices something strange. She looks out the window, and saw a group of men walking by her house. They were five, all of them with hardcore looks. They smile as Leonardo took a step forward and began to scream at them. Celeste knew this was trouble, so she ran down to the backyard. Once she was on the kitchen, she saw as two of them men took out long baton like weapons, and got ready to attack Leonardo. She was about to exit, as a hand hold her on her shoulder and stop her. It was Reborn.
"You are not ready to fight. Let your Guardians take care of this…" Celeste looks at the man, who was wearing a pink dotted pajama.
"Why are you wearing such a pajama?" asked Celeste, as she instantly remembers about Leonardo. "Wait, what is happening out there?"
"Pesca Family remnants are angry. One of the Mafia Boss Candidates killed most of their family members, and they believe it was you…" once said, she saw the first of the men tried to swing a hit at Leonardo, who was still standing before them.
"Leonardo!" Celeste scream, but Reborn laugh.
"Don't worry; he is your future Right Hand for crying out loud." Once Reborn said this, she open her eyes, as she sees that both men on floor heavily wounded.
Leonardo stood with two black guns with a red XI on their sides. He smile as he pointed the guns and pull the trigger, shooting a strange air like bullet that hit the guys, one on the face, and the other on the chest, both of them, possibly, breaking bones. He laughs, putting his feet on the back of one of them.
"This is Vongola Undecimo house! If you want to see her, you will have to pass by my dead body!" once said, one of the other three got scare and run away. The other two laughs, as one of them walk forward, taking out a chain. He raise is left hand, showing off a ring with a green stone on it. The stone then light up, creating a strange spark that charge the chain in a green electricity. The man ran toward Leonardo, who didn't understand what just happen, jump back. The chain took a swift swing, hitting the ground and breaking with ease a stone that was on the yard.
Leonardo tried to shot, but couldn't, as the man swiftly hit his guns and broke them into pieces. The other man, possibly their boss, laugh, as he was then hit on his left shoulder but a sheathed sword. The hit was so strong that it broke in his clavicle. Quickly, a young figure moves again, hitting again in the man's gut. The guy fell on his knees before he could see the attacker, who finishes him with a third hit on his face, breaking his neck.
"Leonardo, I thought you would be dead by now…" said a female voice, as a young girl dress in a really short skirt, a white t-shirt and a long red necktie. She had her hair messy as crazy, while having two chopsticks holding her hair off her face.
"You, back again are your games!" mutter Leonardo, as he watch the girl walking to the other man.
"I call this one the Ballad of Haruka Jin!" she screams, as she instantly disappears again. The man tried to protect himself, but couldn't as she appear again behind him. "Attaco di Squalo!" she swings her sheathed sword down, hitting the guy's neck, breaking his clavicle with ease. She then hit his knee, throwing him with his face against the floor.
Leonardo hump, as Celeste walk outside, followed by Reborn. "What it's happening here?" the question offended the girl.
"Oh, that was just me doing one of my part time jobs… being a bodyguard." The girl explains. Celeste was still uncomfortable with the girl, so she maintains silent, waiting for her to say something else. "Oh, right, I almost forgot!" she walk toward the backyard door, taking a bag filled with letters and packages, she took two boxes and a letter out, gave the first box to Reborn, the second to Leonardo, while giving the letter to Celeste. "A letter from Vongola Decimo, miss Celeste Sawada…"
"Who the heck are you?" asked Celeste, as she took the letter.
"My name is Haruka Jin, personal bodyguard and messenger for the Vongola Family, your Family, of course…"
