I raised my hands slowly, "The…. Box?" I raised an eyebrow, "The thing on my hip? I have no idea how to use it."

His gun poked my back, "Shut up and start walking."

I started to walk, "Wait, I don't need a box to fight my battles." I thought as I stopped. He shoved the barrel into my back.

"Keep moving!" his voice demanded. I sighed, and turned around while knocking the rifle out of his hands with my trident. He reached for his radio, and I slammed him to the ground.

"Try that again. I dare you" I glared at him, and smashed his radio, "You've pissed of the wrong person today."

The oblivious soldier dressed in white looked up at me with fear. I raised my trident, and paused myself for a moment, realizing that I'm just as evil as anyone else in the mafia if I'm to end the guy right now.

I lowered my weapon, "I'm not a scumbag lowlife who kills for thrills."

He stopped shaking with fear, "Too bad."

He jumped up at me and I knocked him to the wall with a giant swing of my trident, knocking him out.

I just sunk into me, what I'm doing for a living. What Mukuro brought me back for, "Oh my god…." I fell to my knees, feeling guilty.

"I'm not born to be a killing machine…. Even if it means protecting people." I shook my head, "I'd rather die…. I'm already dead."

"That may be, Kumoru." A voice called out. One I could identify as Mukuro, "But you did what you have to."

I ignored the fact it was a random time to start talking to me, "That doesn't make it right."

"You protected your own life. That's nothing to be ashamed of." Mukuro soothed.

I stood up, "What if someone dies from my hands while I protected myself?" I argued.

"Kufufu…. That just means their hourglass was a few grains too short." He cackled.

I picked up my trident and started walking farther, "How about some useful information and tell me where my sister is?" I demanded.

"Kufufu…. Use your instincts." Mukuro provided. Gee. That's really helpful.

As I was climbing up the stairs, Reborn tapped into my headset.

"Kumoru, it's over. Your sister is fine." Reborn happily informed me. I smiled, and ran up the last flight into another room.

"Umm, which way do I go from here?" I raised an eyebrow. I looked at debris, and started climbing my way up he rubble.

"Hey!" a voice called, "Who's there?"

I saw Gokudera lean over the edge pointing some weapon at me.

"Ah! It's me, Kumoru!" I widened my eyes in fear. I saw Chrome peek over the edge, and Gokudera lower his strange-looking weapon. My eyes perked when they saw Chrome, "Chrome!"

"Kumoru…?" she raised an eyebrow. I rushed the rest of the way and hugged her.

"It's been so long." I whined, and smiled. I opened my eyes and saw a red-haired man looking over at me.

"Ah, good. I need Kumoru-san as well."
