"I heard." Reborn nodded.

"Well, being the person I am, I have to stay with her. And since she's with the Milliefiore-"

"You are too." Reborn filled in, "But, you weren't part of the Giglio Nero family to begin with."

"Not exactly." I shook my head. If I shake it any more, it'll fall off. I took of my Black Spell coat and revealed my Giglio Nero tattoo, "Since there was only Yuni left, I joined her family." I pulled my fingerless gloves back over my middle finger.

Bianchi came back and handed me a glass of water.

"You just went ahead and joined her?" Reborn asked.

"Well, I kinda owed it to her." I took a sip of water, "Well, that's a shorter version."

Reborn raised an eyebrow, "Owed it to her?"

I nodded, "Lemme tell you that story."

*~FLASHBACK~*

I dashed behind a wall and summoned my trident. Lal Mirch and Colonello followed.

"There's seven of them," I whispered as I looked around a corner, identifying seven men dressed in suits, well armed with boxes, "I'll distract them."

Colonello loaded his gun. I created an illusion of myself, Lal, and Colonello sneaking past them.

I heard them say nothing. Just an array of shocks, explosions, clicks, clacks, impacts, and all sorts of indescribable sounds.

"I'd say they're here for Colonello's pacifier, but no duh." I commented quietly, "We need to take them out ourselves."

"What are their flame classes?" Lal asked. I peered around the corner.

"One mist, two cloud, one lightning, two storm, and one rain." I counted, "They have some strong box animals as well."

"What are their ranks?" Colonello asked.

"It looks like A-class. I guess they figured out not to send their lowest to take us down." I recalled, referring to last week's battle in an attempt to take the three of us down with just five C-class.

"They're getting smarter, kora!" Colonello noted. I chuckled.

I pulled my head back, "If we want to beat them, we certainly can't use illusions."

"Hey!" I heard one of the men yell, "They're illusions!"

"No time now, get in position, kora!" Colonello barked. I swallowed one deathperation pill. As usual, my forehead and the steel plate lit up with rain and mist flames. I lit up my trident; and Colonello motioned for me to go above the building and take them from the front. I nodded.

I propelled myself to the top of the building out of sight, and took cover in front of a building. I saw Colonello walk out behind them, and I took a step in front of them.

They all looked at me, all according to plan.

"Nascondersi!" one of them yelled, "Morso della fiamma! (Flame bite)"

A storm class cheetah charged at me. I held up my trident and slapped him away from me.

In the time I had, I summoned my box animal. Raio, a mist and rain class Chinchilla.

Mist and rain flames lit and poured out his ears. I put him out just in time to defend me from the lightning armadillo.
