A/N: The reason these chapters are going up only twice a week and not every other day is because I've pre-written enough chapters to last me to the end of my school year (I have up to chapter 19 completed on my laptop.) Which is also why I have enough time to work on my other fanfiction, Colonello's Lost Son. So, yeah. Just thought I'd let everyone know.
"Why do you come here as a member of the Milliefiore?" Levi demanded. Today is just a sighing day. I sighed… Yet again.
"I don't represent them. Nor do I affiliate with them. I come here as the Arcobaleno Rappresentante and as a member of the ex-family, the Giglio Nero family." I explained, "It just so happens that I'm stuck with the Milliefiore."
"Prove it." Levi intimidated. I shrugged, and ripped off my black spell coat.
Underneath was a plain black shirt, a grey sash going from my right shoulder to my left side with the number "9" embroidered at the bottom of the sash. Also, there was an embossed square silver plate located above the halfway point on the sash about two-and-a-half inches by two-and-a-half inches, with an embossed pacifier with a crack going down it. Right below the right black sleeve of the shirt was a tattoo about the size of a US half dollar coin. The tattoo was the official crest of the Giglio Nero family.
"Convincing enough?" I asked. Lussaria ran up to me and hugged me, "Gah!"
"Convincing enough for me!" he smiled. I forgot how…. "Huggy" he is.
Squalo lowered his sword, "We're convinced."
"Besides, you would've attacked us by now if you were planning something. You know us too well." Fran noted. I glanced over at him and smiled.
"How is he?" I asked.
"Just fine." Fran answered, looking down. Belphegor looked oddly at both of us.
"Who's fine?" he closed his mouth.
"Oh, uh, I was talking about Xanxus." I improvised. I put my black spell jacket back on and followed them inside.
"Why did you put your Black Spell jacket back on?" Lussaria noted.
"Because it's fricken cold outside!" I shuddered, "And it looks good on me."
Lussaria looked me up and down, "You're right. With the hood, you look adorable!"
"Voi! You ladies can talk about fashion later!" Squalo yelled at us both. I chuckled, remembering getting yelled at when I was younger. Just like old times.
Everyone split apart and went to different places. Fran took me to the communications room, but I knew why he specifically took me aside.
"What really happened to Mukuro?" I asked, "You said just fine, but your eyes told me a different story."
He inhaled deeply, "I lost contact with Master about an hour ago."
I sat down, and he sat next to me, "What happened?"
"I don't know all the details. However, I know Master is alive. Well, I'm pretty sure." Fran answered in monotone.
"Hm," I pondered, "About an hour ago, when I left, I felt a disturbance, then I specifically was told to leave. I'm assuming now by Mukuro."
Fran nodded, "I'll keep my eyes and ears open. But here's the communications. Have fun."
Fran left. I put on the headset and started to contact the Vongola base.
"Reborn, you have a call!" Giannini called out. Reborn walked in.
"Who's it from?"
"The Varia."
