"VOOIIIII!" comes from her watch. "Damn it!" she screams as she covers her watch, "Keep it down you idiot!" Xanxus pushes Squalo out of the camera shot. She nods as a thank you and asks what he wanted, so he asks her if there was anything to report. "He was really nice and innocent, but I can tell he's strong. He's kind of babyish and, at school, he's known as Dame-Tsuna." she reports. As Xanxus is about to close the line, Lussuria jumps in. "Hiiiii~! How's my little girl doing~? Are you ok~?" he cheerfully says.
"I'm fine Lussuria." she replies.
"Okay. Just checking~ Oh? You're not wearing the makeup I gave you!"
"I do not need it on a daily basis."
"But you shouldn't waste farewell presents like that!"
"I'm not going to waste it. I'd be wasting it if I used it everyday. Besides, im saving it for special occasions."
"Like reuniting with the Boss?" Interrupts Levi, with sparkles in his eyes.
Akari gives him a weird look, shakes her head, and tells him it's not that special. Xanxus gives her a nasty glare and calls her scum for that comment. Lussuria asks her what kind of occasions she has in mind. She shrugs as she says "Parties" tentatively.
Showing the caring side of him, Squalo asks what kind of parties she has in mind, hoping she wont say any kind of bad, nasty parties, with his loud and firm voice. She scolded him for being too loud again and called him an idiot a second time. Xanxus told her not to mind them, and closes the line. She rolls her eyes and stands up, flicking tiny twigs and leaves off of her legs.
When she turns around, she sees Gokudera looming over her. "What the Fu-" she screams before he covers her mouth and pins her to a fence. "Who were you talking to." he demands, more than asking. She looks at him with an apathetic expression and turns her head away. Getting pissed off, Gokudera repeats himself with a more firm tone "I'll ask one more time. Who. Were. You. Talking to." and lifts his hands from her wrists. After she rubs her wrists and tells him she's not obligated to tell anyone, she slaps his hands away, since they were still in her way, and tells him she can't waste any time with him, adding that she needed to spend time with her -she chuckles- brother, and walks away.
He looks at her with a sorrowful look and thinks "You've changed... What have they done to you?"
Later in history class, their Teacher informs the class about a pop quiz they were supposed to have that day. Everyone slightly freaks out and turns to whoever's next to them. "But," he says, "that wouldn't be very fair for our new student." Everyone sighs and cheers in relief and thanks Akari for coming to the school around this time. She quickly stands up and tells the teacher not to take her so lightly just beacuse she's new. "I know more than you think, sir. Let us take the test." she demands.
"Well then, tell me what you know ." asks the teacher.
She rambles for about ten minutes about Japanese history, then adds, "Other than all the Japanese history I just summarized. I know about the Mayans and how they created Xocolatl, that's chocolate. I know what both Montezuma's Revenge is, not including the rollercoaster in America. The scientific revolution in Italy and how artist Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci, A.K.A. Leonardo da Vinci, dissected bodies with Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni, A.K.A. Michelangelo, just so they can study human anatomy to paint/ sculpt/ draw human bodies better. How priests sold fake "tickets to heaven", which name I can not remember at the moment so I apologize, just to make money. My most favorite thing is Dante degli Alighieri's Divine Comedy which is an Epic poem about Dante's journey through the Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. I would go into details but I don't want these students to get scared."
The teacher, and students, are dumbfounded. "It seems we no longer have to take the quiz."
After school Akari asks Tsuna if he wants to have dinner with her. Of course he agrees but Yamamoto, having overheard her offer, jumps in and asks if he can tag along too. Naturally, she approves, but Gokudera also joins in and says, "Where ever Tenth goes, I go." also getting approval from Akari. Just then, Tsuna turns around because he hears a familiar voice calling his name. "Ryohei!" exclaims Tsuna when the caller came up to him. "What are you doing and who's the girl?" asks Ryohei.
"I'm going to have dinner with everyone, and she's my older sister." replies Tsuna.
"Yo." Greets Akari.
"You have an older sister?! And you didn't tell me?!"
"Well... I just found out about her this morning."
"What kind of sibling love is that?!"
"One better than mine." claims Gokudera.
"I wasn't talking to you, Octopus-head!" Ryohei exclaims.
"You never said you weren't talking to me!" retorts Gokudera.
"Just shut up!" screams Akari, "Would you like to join us this evening, Ryohei?"
He happily nods and thanks her for the invitation. Before they leave the school, Akari thinks about inviting Hibari. "Should I invite Kyoya?" she thinks, "But I don't want him to freak out, when he sees me. Especially in front of people..."
She takes them to an Italian restaurant some where on the outskirts of town. They walk inside and take their seats inside the large beautiful room with pillars, vines with wax or plastic grapes, wine bottles, clothed tables, and brick walls. Tsuna says he didn't know there was an Italian restaurant in Namimori so Akari tells him it just opened today. "How the hell could you know about this place when u also came today?" complains Gokudera. Akari tilts her head left to right as she tells him "Well..." tilt "It's top secret and" tilt "I might get scolded" tilt "or punished" tilt "by my masters" tilt "for telling anyone" tilt "about-"
"Stop that!" screams Gokudera "It's annoying!"
"It..." Akari continues.
Ryohei laughs a hearty laugh and pats her shoulder. "I hear you, my master trains me to a pulp if I don't follow his orders!"
She looks up and tells him she wouldn't exactly be trained to a pulp. Probably just beaten badly. Yamamoto gasps and tells her it's not very nice of her masters and that she should ask for a less painful punishment. She shrugs and claims it's their sinful nature.
A man wearing a black and white suit, short spiky black hair with blonde highlights, and a small goatee comes to their table with a small notepad and pen. "My name is Genesio and I will be your waiter this evening." he greets, bowing. Akari asks for her usual meal, Tsuna shyly asks for Fettucini Alfredo, Gokudera orders Vongola Lasanga, Ryohei loudly asks for Pasta, and Yamamoto happily orders Salmon. After Genesio writes the orders down, he asks for their drinks. Akari nonchalantly asks for wine. "Them too?" Genesio asks. "No, their under-aged." Gokudera screams that she is too so she orders Apple Ale. Gokudera orders Grape Soda, Tsuna asks for Apple Juice, Ryohei once again loudly asks for Orange soda, and Yamamoto orders Milk. Genesio nods and walks away. "What the hell is up with you and milk?!" Gokudera questions Yamamoto. "What the hell is up with you saying 'What the hell' all the time?" asks Akari. "I should be asking the same thing!" Gokudera exclaims.
Wanting them to stop fighting, Yamamoto smiles and tells him beverages are beverages no matter where you are, pissing Gokudera off even more. Trying to take his anger out on Akari, he harshly asks her why Genesio knows her usual order and what Apple Ale is. She explains that there's a restaurant just like this in Italy, and the staff there moved to Japan to work and learn abroad. That explains why she knew so much about this place. "But that Genesio guy looked like he was in his mid 20's" thought Tsuna. He disregards the thought and asks if she's going to ditch them and make them pay for the meal, hoping she'll say no.
She shakes her head and comforts him by saying it's on her. To her, doing things like ditching the party and making them pay is rude, but she's in no position to say that so she keeps her mouth shut. Tsuna apologizes before asking when and how she and Gokudera-kun met. She scratches the back of her head, tells him there's no need for apologies, and tells him she was training.
"And...?" asks all the boys, except Gokudera. She slightly blushes as she starts off by saying "To be honest..." she blushes harder "I kind of-"
"Here are your drinks!" Genesio says as he hands them out. "Your food will be ready shortly~"
