Haru paced back and forth in her living room, fretting about what had happened today. "What should I do, what should I do?! I just ran away and left him standing there! If he really meant it, then I should've just let him hit me instead of running away like a scaredy-cat..." Haru flumped onto the couch and hugged onto a pillow. "Hahi! I should also apologize for annoying him so much..." Suddenly, she flushed and buried her head into the pillow. "...but how should I apologize to him...? A bento? My namahage costume? A hug?" Haru pondered that for a while. "Maybe I should make a bento... but in all these years that I've known him... I never knew what he liked eating! Whenever I asked him... he would always say anything's fine..." Then, her face turned red. "M-maybe he meant he would eat anything I make! Yes! That must be it! I can't wait to see his face tomorrow~" Haru jumped off the couch and went for her cooking books.
Kiku woke up from a startling crash and her eyes widened in surprise. The mirror in front of her had broken. "Could this be...?" She got up and studied the mirror in curiousity. Instead of glass, it had a colorful film of water-like substance, and instead of a reflection of herself, she saw a Hibari Kyoya lying on the street, unconscious, with a blue pineapple-haired dude and a purple pineapple-haired girl standing in front of him. As she looked at the blue pineapple-haired guy, she felt a spark of fear grow within her. "I-it can't be... b-but I thought..." As she studied him a bit more and studied the girl, she realized that he wasn't Daemon Spade. He was just a random person that looked like him. She felt relieved, but then noticed that not only Hibari was unconcious, but he was also beaten up.
"HEY YOU!" (she used the impolite form) She ran through the mirror and stepped between Hibari and Mukuro. "What do you think you're doing!?" Mukuro's eyes flashed with amusement. "Oh? What is a little girl doing here?" Kiku bloated her cheeks and glared at him. "I'm not a little girl! And if you do anything to Kyoya, I will bite you to death!" Mukuro stared at her in surprise. Suddenly, he started laughing like crazy. "Kufufu... KAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Are you Hibari's little sister or something?! And what are you doing naked out here in this temperature, little girl?!" Kiku stopped glaring and realized that she had no clothes on (the void doesn't support the materialization of clothing...). "Kyaaaaaa! Stop staring at me you pervert!" She continuously punched at Mukuro while her face flushed in embarrassment. Mukuro just stood there while Kiku gave punches that felt like nothing. "Kufufufufu... a pervert you say?" Kiku continued to punch him. "More like a... a... a pedophile! And why aren't you taking any damage from my punches?!" She stopped punching and dropped to the floor, tired. This is utmost unusual... I feel very tired just from giving several punches and they don't even do any damage! Oh wait! It must have been... yes it must have... Mukuro just continued to laugh. "Kufufu... so now you say you're a little kid?"
Σ(゚д゚lll)Kiku pouted. "Now I'm annoyed! I'm gonna bite you to death because you annoyed me and hurt Kyoya!" She was about to pounce on him and literally bite him to death, but Mukuro just sighed and waved her off with a smile. "Okay, okay~ If you're that concerned about your onii-san then I'll just leave~ how about it, little girl?" But before he gave her a chance to answer, he disappeared with Chrome in a burst of lotus flowers. Kiku sighed in disappointment. "I really wanted something to drink... anyways..." She looked around and noticed that people were staring at her and whispering. "Oh my... who's child is that? How indecent... she's naked!" She started to flush in embarrassment again and tugged at Hibari's sleeve. "Ne, ne Kyoya... I think we should go somewhere else, so please wake up...?" -no response- "Oh well... I'll try to teleport back to your house..." She pushed herself to the limits and teleported both of them back to his house. She sighed in relief and swayed from the dizziness. "Ki...ku?" Hibari, who woke up when they reached his house, got up and stared into her innocent-looking, purple and red eyes. Suddenly, he grabbed her into a hug. "Ku... Ku... how long have you been waiting for me...?" Kiku broke out in tears of happiness. "Uwaaaaaa... I've been waiting for 8 years already -sniff- but that doesn't matter anymore -hic- because I finally get to see you again..." "Ku, I'm so sorry... I had to make you wait for so long..." Hibari picked her up by the waist. "But why does it seem as if you didn't grow from when you were 7...?"
After a few moments, Kiku flushed and flailed in embarrassment. "Eeeeehhhh!? It was just because the void I was stuck in didn't support aging and I used up all my magic to get away from Daemon! And please stop staring at me when I have no clothes on!" Hibari looked at her in concern. "A void...? Daemon...?" Kiku stopped flailing. "Ah. Yea... I escaped from Daemon a month after I was taken away by using up all my magic and setting up a seal. It will take some time for my body to grow and for my magic to return, though... oh yea, if I remember correctly, you are now 16, yes?" Hibari nodded. "Yeah... why?" Kiku blushed and looked away. "Oh nothing..." Hibari stared at her in suspicion. "Do you have a fever or something? Before you were swaying a bit when standing, and now your face is bright red." Kiku pouted. "I'm just tired, and my face turning red has nothing to do with a fever." Hibari scoffed. "Oh? Is that so?" He carried her over to his room and dropped her down onto his futon. "..?" Kiku blinked and tilted her head in confusion.
"Sleep." "Eeeehhh why?" "Just sleep." "Nyuuuuu I dun wanna..." Hibari gave her an evil smile and held up a tonfa. "Sleep, or I'll bite you to death." Kiku bloated her cheeks. "Okies... but I still don't have a fever." She dove under the covers, still pouting. Hibari sighed. "We'll see sooner or later if you have a fever or not... now goodnight." "B-but it's still sunny outside..." Hibari twitched. "Just sleep. Please." "Okay..." Hibari stood there to make sure she fell asleep, which she did after several minutes. Then, he stared at her face and gave a light chuckle. She looks just like a defenseless little bunny when sleeping... He left the room and walked over to the kitchen. "..." I barely cook... but I guess I'll try and make some gruel for her... Hibari took out a pot and started to fill it with water.
Okay, so let me try to clear up some things:
Yep, she has different colored eyes. Her right eye is purple while her left eye is red. While she was lost in the human world many years ago, a lot of children made fun of her strange colored eyes, but Hibari was the only one she met that didn't say anything horrible about them. Instead, he said that they were... interesting. Anyway, normally, a Xenon would only have red eyes, but in some special cases, they would have a red eye and then a different colored eye.
Kiku mentioned that she was stuck in a void by using up all her magic and creating a seal. So. What she did was use a spell that was definitely a huge risk. She sealed and transported herself into a different dimension to prevent herself from being used by Daemon. The only way to break the spell and escape the void was to have Hibari remember her, which wasn't easy, as it took him 8 years to remember. In the last chapter, it said that Daemon needed her to erase his memories, but because of the blood ceremony, she was not able to do that, so instead, she sealed his memories and his vampire blood. Luckily, Daemon didn't know that, so Kiku and Hibari were safe. Anyway, back to the spell. (I bet you guys are really confused right now XD) The reasons why she even used this spell was to prevent Daemon from using her to create chaos, she knew that Hibari would remember her eventually since she left a small memory of her and Hibari, and she used the rest of her magic on the spell to "cloak" Hibari so that Daemon won't find him.
About the void:
The void... it freezes time, it's dark and lonely, and it doesn't support the materialization of anything else other than souls and bodies. Therefore, Kiku was not able to recover any magic nor was her body able to mature. Also, she wasn't able to have any clothes with her, but that's alright because the void doesn't even have temperature so yea... no need to got hot nor cold there... and you can't get hungry either because of the time stop. Normally, if she didn't use a spell to seal herself in the void, Kiku would've been able to use her magic to make her body mature in a minute, but since she currently has no magic, she can't do that. Oh, and Kiku is not the only one in the void, but because the void doesn't allow others to interact with each other, they are all separated in different sections of the void.
