A/N: Hello minna! I'm back!
I'm not sure if I'll be able to finish this in time, cause I will be quite busy this week...
Anyway, watashi, ganbalimas! ( Did I spelled it correctly? )
Disclaimer: I don't own KHR. I think this is obvious already anyway...
Squalo sat down in his usual seat beside Xanxus's at the dinner table. The earlier conversation they had ended when the shark noticed that his boss did not intend to answer his question, so he took that as a sign to leave.
The table was already occupied with people. Except for Lussuria, of course. He's in charge of the dinner so he's in the kitchen. Mammon was already in his seat, pressing buttons on his calculator. Bel and Fran seated opposite of Squalo. Bel was still teasing Fran while the frog spite out insults at the prince. Levi was there too, but as usual, everyone chose to ignore him.
But the shark saw neither Xanxus nor Meridionale at the table.
"Oh Squ-chan, you're leaving already?" Lussuria asked as he walked out of the kitchen with plates of food in both hands, seeing Squalo stood up from his seat and headed towards the exit.
"Ushishishi. Of course. He has that mission that he must leave tonight." Bel answered.
"Oh, that's right!" Lussuria exclaimed as he suddenly remembered. "But you could at least stay after dinner, Squ-chan. There's no point of you going so early."
"It's okay." Squalo replied, not even bothering to turn around or stop. "There's no big deal done if I went there early, isn't there?"
"But, Squ-chan..."
"It's okay, Lussuria." Lussuria turned to look at Mammon who spoke. "Squalo can do whatever he wants, can't he? Besides, it's not as if we're able to change his mind after he made it up." Mammon continued his speech before going back to calculating his amount of money.
"Even though what you said is true, but Mammon-chan..." Lussuria wasn't able to finish his sentence as three knives flew towards him and barely missed his head.
"Ushishishi." Bel laughed his signature laugh, showing his Cheshire grin. "Enough talking, peasant. Besides, there's no point of you continuing anyway, since Squalo had already left."
"A-re?" Lussuria looked around the living room, searching for the figure of the certain shark. "Mou~ Squ-chan should pay more attention when people are talking!"
"Senpai, should we just ignore him?" Fran asked in his usual monotone.
"Ushishishi. Agreed, Froggy."
"So, how's your stay with the Vongola's independent assassin squad?"
"Fufu, interesting, I suppose."
"Fufu, glad to hear that. But I hope you haven't forgotten the reason you're in there."
"Of course I won't. Why would I?"
"So, when are we going to start?"
"Tonight. And probably now if I want to be more accurate."
"Fufu, why is that?"
"Squalo had a mission tonight. He probably would have left by now."
"Fufu, okay then. Let's start, shall we?"
...
"Nee, has anyone seen that soon-to-be-wife of Boss'?" Fran asked. It's not as if he actually cared about that woman's presence, really. But it's just that he's getting very irritated by Bel's teasing, so he's trying to change the subject.
"Now that you mentioned it..." Mammon said as he looked up from his food.
"Oh, that's right!" Lussuria exclaimed for the second time of the day. "Her brother came just now and picked her up to the Fiancata mansion. He's probably worried about her. What a nice man!"
"Here we go again..." Mammon mumbled as he turned back to his food.
"So that means no annoying woman for a while?" Fran asked sarcastically.
"Ushishishi. Bingo, Froggy!" Bel answered. "And guess what else? The Prince don't care!"
"Hey, shut up, you guys!" Levi shouted. "Where's Bossu?"
*Stab Stab Stab*
"Ushishi. Shut up, octopus peasant." Bel demanded. "Now..." he turned to face the others. "where's Boss?"
"That's what I asked!"
*Stab Stab Stab*
"Nobody asked you, peasant. Now shut up!"
"Now that you mentioned it, Bel-senpai..." Fran said as he tilted his head as if he's running through his thoughts. "Me haven't seen Boss at all today."
"Me too." Mammon added.
"Me neither." said Lussuria.
"Hmm. Me wonder what happened." Fran mumbled as he placed a finger under his chin.
"Squ-chan should know." Lussuria pointed out. "He's the last person to leave Boss' office."
"But we can't ask him now, can we?" Mammon questioned. "Let's just let things fall into places themselves. I mean, what could actually happen to Boss?"
"Uhmm, you got a point, Mammon-chan."
"Should I go check on Bossu?" Levi asked.
"NO!" everyone replied in unison.
Awkward silence filled the room for a good few seconds.
"Wow, for once we all agreed on something!" Fran stated out, but his tune didn't sound as excited as his words. "How cool is that?"
"How about 0%?" Bel questioned. "The Prince refused to have the same thought as you peasants. Because I'm Prince after all! I'm not like you normal peasants!"
"Me thought you said that Me's not a peasant, you forgetful fake prince senpai?"
*Stab Stab Stab*
"Ushishishi. The Prince didn't forget saying that, Froggy. But that doesn't mean that you have the authority to be like the Prince, because you are his pet. And for Froggy's information, Froggy should be punished for insulting the Prince!"
Oh no. Fran thought. Here we go again...
Squalo arrived at his destination. A mansion. The mission was an easy one. Kill everyone in his way. Don't let anyone run away. He took down the guards at the entrance and made his way in. No body seemed to notice his presence. Normally, he would had shouted his signature "VOIIIIIIIIIII" out loud and made them be aware of him. But now, he doesn't feel like doing it. All thanks to that bastard boss of his.
On his way to the main hall, he passed by a lot of rooms. But no one came out and charge at him. So he just have to open each and every one of them. But to his disappointment, there's no one in any one of them.
Now that's strange. Squalo thought. They shouldn't have known that I'll be coming here? They also couldn't be hiding. So where in the world are they?
After reaching the main hall, he was even more surprised.
There, standing right in front of his very own eyes, is a giant Spinosaurus. In its mouth, a raven haired man.
"What the hell?" Squalo shouted as he noticed the scene. He saw this image before when he, along with the rest of the Varia, received the memory of the world 10 years later in the future. It was when he was fighting that one hell of a bastard, Zakuro, back at the Vongola Base to buy those brats time to bring Yuni to a safe place. While the rest of the Varias got to the forest and safe the sorry asses of that Vongola Storm Guardian, the Black Spell member and the failed Arcobaleno of CEDEF.
And that is when it happened.
While Bel, Lussuria and Levi were going after Bluebell, Xanxus went to attack Zakuro. Originally, it appeared as he had killed the Storm Real Six Funeral Wreath, but in reality, it was Zakuro who led the boss of Varia into Kikyo's area. And that is when Xanxus was killed by the Spinosaurus created by the leader of the Real Six Funeral Wreaths.
But thank God that it was later revealed to be an illusion created by Mukuro and Fran.
That's all the information he got. But there's something that doesn't fit in.
The Xanxus here...
had short spiky hair. And he's wearing the present Varia uniform.
So... does that mean... Oh crap...
Sure, the Real Six Funeral Wreaths were defeated and dead. But that's something that happened 10 years later in the future. Not to mention in another parallel world. So that means that Byakuran, along with his 6 guardians, could still be alive in this time. And that includes Kikyo.
Could it be that Kikyo came and attacked Xanxus? Speaking of which, why is Xanxus here in the first place? Nevermind those for now, if he don't want to see his boss dying in front of his very own eyes, again, he should just help.
It didn't took Squalo too much effort to jump towards the Spinosaurus and chop its head off in one clean stroke. His main aim in trying to free his boss from the giant monster's mouth is accomplished when it's head fell off from the rest of it's body and it's mouth opened slightly to give Xanxus enough room to escape. But what is more troublesome is that the detached head landed on the floor, and the rest of its body started to grow at the part where it's head was chopped, creating a new Spinosaurus. The same thing happened with the body. Causing Squalo to face 2 of them.
"What the hell?" Squalo shouted as he sliced both of them at the same time with his sword attached to his left hand, but it was futile. The detached body parts regenerated again like how it did the previous time.
"Shit. Cloud attribute propagation, huh?" Squalo muttered.
The battle is getting harder when the Spinosaurus splited themselves into halves without Squalo chopping their limbs down and continued with this until Squalo is face to face with an army of them.
"Tch. This is never-ending." Squalo groaned under his breath.
Now where is that son-of-a-bitch boss? Can't he just use his Sky attribute harmony to turn them into stones and burn them into ashes? That sure will save us, wait no, me, a lot more troubles.
Squalo jumped from his spot as a group of the Spinosaurus attacked him. He landed on the railing on the 2nd floor and stared as they retreated their heads to reveal a badly damaged floor.
Let's just use that.
Squalo took out his Box and punched his Rain-class Ring into it. Alo came out as the Box opened and swam around the area, spreading the whole room with Rain-class flame along with it.
That should slow them down from multiplying. Squalo thought as he once more charged towards them, cutting them down. But this time, they didn't regenerate. Thanks to the Rain attribute tranquility spread in the room by his Box Animal.
I better hurry with this. Squalo waved his sword diagonally at the Spinosaurus, tearing them apart easily. It was a good thing that they were already bathed in the Rain flame to prevent them from regenerating. Or else they probably will multiply into millions by now.
That should do it. Squalo looked around the area, the giant green monsters' limbs were all dispersed, blood were flowing everywhere. It was a kind of gory scene to witness, but it's not as if the Varia never witness anything gory before anyway.
Just as Squalo was about to sigh out in relief, he felt something behind him. But he was too late to notice the one Spinosaurus that attacked him from underground. It bit down on the shark's neck with its sharp teeth, causing the swordsman to scream out in pain.
Squalo passed out after that. Not noticing the strange arms wrapped around his body...
A/N: OMG! I'm so godamn sorry that I took so long to finish this! Gomenasai! ( I hope I spelled that correctly too )
Like I said, I was busy to the EXTREME this week, so I don't really have enough time to finish this in time. *bows bows*
I hope I phrased the words nicely enough... When I plotted it, I use my imagination ( power of self mental images... ) instead of words, so it's kindda hard to write it down.
Anyway... the next few chpts will probably took more time as well. Please forgive me. And no, I cannot ensure that it'll make your day, since I'm not very sure myself if it'll be like I imagined...
Please Review & Please forgive me!
