Star: I'M SORRY, MINNA-SAN! I'M REALLY SORRY! I didn't get to update very soon when school ended because I was very busy with... stuff. A lot of happened... *sighs* I'm dame-author... *sulks in the corner* T~T
Natsumi: Come on, Star -san. It's not that bad... It was only... er... a month since you last updated.
Fuyuka: You're just making it worse, Nats.
Natsumi: hehehe...
I DON'T OWN ANYTHING FROM KHR.
Chapter 4: It's ON!
"And thus. . . the Famiglia is complete."
With those four words said, the Vongola famiglia was declared complete. It might have been a happy reunion if they weren't in a situation with explosions and screaming.
"What exactly is going on here?!" screamed Fuyuka inside her mind "and. . ."
All of them watched the sky fight the robot. Every clash comes a light. The sky fought that thing while talking to his main opponent. The said opponent was none other than. . .
"Xanxus." Said Tsuna, eyes showing displeasure.
". . . who is he?" thought Fuyuka, keeping her eyes on the battle.
"That is Xanxus, the boss of the Varia." Said Reborn
"Va. . . ria?" said Natsumi
Fuyuka gave Reborn a 'What the hell does Varia mean?' look.
Reborn gave her a 'We'll explain later.' smirk and 'Better yet. . . I'll explain later.' smirk, which was wider than the last one.
Fuyuka just shrugged it off and turned her attention to the battle once more. After Tsuna finally snapped and cut the robot into half revealing what was inside that shocked everyone out. It was. . .
A person. An old man.
Tsuna immediately stopped and stared at the person in shock. Everyone froze from their spot in disbelief.
"W-What?!" said Ryohei in a rather confused tone
"A person. . ." said Hayato "A person came out of that thing!"
"A-A person. . .?" Natsumi was now in the void of questions.
What was a person doing inside a robot? How did he end up being there? And. . . Who was this person? All the questions overloaded Natsumi's head.
The flame on Tsuna's forehead began to fade. The serious expression turned into a shock and horrified expression. The brunet fell on his knees with widened eyes. Reborn ran to the person and checked if he was all right or better yet, still alive.
"You attacked Kyuudaime." Said Xanxus, sternly
Tsuna was taken by those words. He muttered something that anyone couldn't hear. His face showed guilt and hurt on what he did. Natsumi noticed these expressions and deeply worried the brunet.
"Who mercilessly punched the old man?" asked Xanxus, out of the blue
Tsuna flinched and spaced out, looking at his hands with mittens on. Fuyuka swore he had gloves a while ago not mittens. She threw that thought away when her sttention met the person inside that thing.
"Who cute the Mosca into half, along with the old man?" asked Xanxus one more time making the brunet even more stuck into guilt
Natsumi wanted to shut the man, with the scar across his face, mouth. Even though she only met Tsuna, she treated him as her friend. She couldn't handle it anymore. She was about to shout out until she noticed the person moved.
Tsuna quickly turned his attention to the person. Everyone couldn't hear their conversation but just by looking at their faces. . . they seem shock. They didn't like where this conversation was going when the brunet was telling him to 'hang in there.' The person lifted his hand with his index finger placing it on Tsuna's forehead.
A flame appeared.
An orange flame appeared from his finger.
Tsuna couldn't handle it anymore until he broke down into tears. His guardians, including Fuyuka and Natsumi, noticed the flam was going out. The brunet held onto his hand when it almost fell to the ground.
"Kyuudaime. . ." muttered Tsuna
"How dare you kill Kyuudaime."
Everyone turned their attention to Xanxus. He began speaking to avenge his father, the Vongola Ninth. Tsuna's guardians began to boil in anger along with Fuyuka and Natsumi, who were just getting annoyed by him.
"This is for the sake of my father, who is the boss, and for the future of Vongola." Said Xanxus as he showed a ring on his right hand "I will deafeat you and avenge him."
"What are you talking about?" snarled Hayato "You're the one who captured Kyuudaime!"
Reborn then explained that he, Xanxus, planned all of this from the start to get the full trust of the family.
"Everyone, please refrain from conjecture." The woman with pink hair said
"We are officially recording all statements." Said the other
"I knew it. Cervello has always been on Xanxus's side!" snarled Hayato as he pointed an accusing finger
The hitman declared that they will do as they wish but to this situation, he already snapped on what happened to the Ninth. The baby then gave the one to speak more to his student, the brunet. Sawada Tsunayoshi.
Tsuna stood up with his brown locks shadowing his eyes.
"Xanxus. I'll be taking that ring back."
"I won't. . . I won't let you succeed Kyuudaime." Said Tsuna as he glared at him
Xanxus smirked and just told him, he will crush him. Until a voice gave his attention...
"He's not alone!"
It was Gokudera Hayato. Bringing out his dynamites out of who-knows-where.
"Juudaime's will is..."
Chrome gripped on her trident, Ryohei was at his fighting stance, and Yuki was already holding her bow and arrow.
"Is our will." Continued Takeshi
"Personally." Added Kyoya, showing his tonfa
Even though Fuyuka and Natsumi were getting confused, they sensed the tension rising.
"You want a fight?" said the man with spiky black hair, grabbing his weapon from behind his back
"Ushishi. Sounds fun." The blond chuckled as he pulled out his knives
"Eradicate them." Commanded Xanxus
"Please wait a moment." Two voices interrupted them all
Then the Cervello, as what Hayato called them, were explaining to them that THEY will be leading this fight, much to their dismay. Showing a seal of approval from the Ninth, himself. The dirty blond teen then protested at this approval and said it was force that brought it here. Xanxus smirked while Tsuna gritted his teeth.
"As we said earlier, please refrain from conjecture." Said the Cervello woman
"This battle, which will determine the next Vongola boss, will be called. . ."
". . . The SkyMatch." They said in unison
Everyone tensed over this, especially Tsuna.
"It'll be the last and final battle of the Ring Conflict that we've held." They said
"Does it suit you, Xanxus-sama?" asked the Cervello
"Not bad." Was Xanxus's reply.
"Then tomorrow night. . . would everyone please gather at Nami-chuu."
"So you've given them a stay of execution." said the blond
"Teme. . ." snarled Hayato
Xanxus threw something to Tsuna. The brunet caught it and stared at it for a few seconds. All of them thought that this "meeting" was over until. . .
"There is one more thing we have to say." Said the Cervello
Xanxus gave them a smug look, meaning 'Make it quick. There's a bottle of wine waiting.'
The Cervello merely nodded at this. They cleared their throats and opened their mouths.
"Before you leave, we would like to announce something." Said the Cervello woman
"We would like everyone to know that there is one more guardian." Said the other one "And that would be the Snow Guardian."
Everyone, including the Varia, was surprised by this.
Why? Simple.
They didn't know there was another guardian.
Yes, even the ever-so-mighty Varia didn't know about this. Tsuna was in the verge of panic. He was panicking because it might be one of his friends or worst. . . maybe one if his family, he really needs to do his signature scream. NOW. His tutor only sighed as he read his student's thoughts.
"As you all know, we kept some outsider in." said the Cervello "We strictly don't allow outsiders in but the outsiders that are here now are allowed."
"Wait. . . then that means. . . It can't be. . .!" Tsuna panicked even more.
"Oi, trash. We don't even have a Snow Guardian." Said Xanxus
"That's why we only have one Guardian of Snow." Said the Cervello
"So tomorrow's match will be. . ." Yuki trailed off for a moment ". . . the eight rings and one guardian?"
"That would be correct."
"Then who's the Guardian of Snow?" asked Takeshi
"That would be. . ."
A small thump interrupted the Cervello.
"Nats, I told you to stop pulling me." Said Fuyuka "Now you made me drop something out of my pocket."
Everyone's attentions were now focused on the two siblings. Fuyuka sighed and picked up the small box from the ground, not noticing the stares.
"Excuse me but will you open that box." Said the Cervello, more like demanding
"U-Uh. . . Okay. . ."
Fuyuka slowly opened the box and pulled out a silver chain revealing...
A ring.
The Vongola Snow Ring.
"U-Uso. . ." said Tsuna, he looked at Reborn "Reborn. . . she can't be the. . ."
"You saw it, Tsuna." Said Reborn
"Sorano Fuyuka is the Guardian of Snow."
Everyone's jaw dropped at this, except for the Varia of course.
"Ushishi. We get a peasant as well." Said the blond
Xanxus smirked at this, his face was showing amuse.
"If you lose this battle, we will have the rings and one of guardians." Said the blond
"I'm not letting you have my sister." Snarled Natsumi, taking a step in front of Fuyuka
"Nats. . ."
Every single one of Tsuna's friends stood in front of her.
"We're not letting you get her." Said Hayato with dynamites still in hand
Takeshi had a serious face on and was itching to grab his sword.
"We will protect her to the extreme." Said Ryohei, surprisingly, in a not so loud voice.
Chrome was set on her battle stance with her trident on hand while Yuki was beside her with a serious face, gripping on her bow.
"She's student here. I will not let anyone get their hands on student of the school . For they are barbarous people." Said Kyoya, surprisingly said it much to the others' attention
Tsuna was really speechless for a while along with his guardians.
"That's the first time I heard you say such words, Hibari." Said Reborn
"Hn."
Fuyuka, who hid her blush by looking away, was still surprised that she was the Guardian of Snow. How was that even possible? She was new in this town. How come it had to be her not someone else? She wanted to stay out of this dangerous battle. But, as they say, what done is done. She can't back down now.
"Then it's settled." Said the Cervello woman "Tomorrow's match will be for the rings and for the Guardian of Snow."
Fuyuka was gaping like a fish. Who wouldn't be surprise being a guardian of the strongest family?
Now that all of it was settled. . . Xanxus lit up flames on his palm with a blinding light making everyone looks away. Before they disappeared. . . the teen with the cloak took one glance at the Snow Guardian.
"What will you become after this?" he thought before losing at sight
"T-They're gone. . ." said Yuki
As soon as they were gone, a blond that looked like in his twenties arrived with men. They took care of the Ninth, ordered by the blond. The sky was standing in the middle of the field, determined to win this. The guardians were the same even a certain carnivore joined in just to see what can the herbivore do in this battle. One thing is for sure . . . they had a lot of explaining to do with the newcomers.
Star: *sighs* Guess my vacation was too long... Really sorry for the late update. I'll try to update much sooner.
Ryohei: EXTREME KEYWORD: TRY!
Star: Could you quiet down Ryohei?
Ryohei: BOXING TO THE EXTREME!
