A/N: Okay everyone, like I said, this next one will be out very soon. ( I hope this is within your definition of 'soon'... )

Okay, let's make it clear, I think I'm going to make the chpts longer for it to move a bit quicker, because apparently I'm running out of time... ( No, I'm not dying, calm down everyone! )

So let's just get it started.

Disclaimer: I do not own KHR, Vongola and Varia are all Amano's.

"Who's there?!" Xanxus shouted at whoever, or whatever, that is by the door and fired both his pistols once again at the already broken door. The result is just having the expensive materials of the door and more smokes sent flying in all different directions. A dark shadow jumped from its original position at the door and landed on one of his knees gracefully right in front of the Varia Boss' desk.

"Explain yourself, trash." Xanxus snarled, pointing his X-gun at the intruder's temple. "What the hell are you doing in my territory?"

"Fufufu." the guy laughed as he stood up, left hand reaching up to lower his tall black hat. "The most simple answer is, I just don't like you."

A knee was sent to the guy's stomach before he was send backwards and smashed against the wall behind him.

"Whatever shitty reason you have, prepare to die for your action, scum." Xanxus said as he placed his right feet on the toppled desk with a pistol in his left hand, charging with his unique Flame of Warth.

"Now, now." the guy got to his feet and patted the dust off his back. "The one who is going to die might not be me."

"Oh yeah?" the boss of Varia smirked as he pulled the trigger. A barrage of orange flame was unleashed simultaneously that it appeared to fuse together into one large super-powerful blast and charged at the enemy, who attempted to dodge it but half failed as he got half of himself burned.

"Urgh... that's powerful..."the guy hissed as he clenched his wounded side. "Guess the flame of Vongola Secondo and the gun of Vongola Settimo isn't just sophisticated after all..."

"Hey scum, I thought you say you might not be the one dying?"

"Yeah, but I wonder now..." a hand was placed against the wall for balance. "Maybe asking for help from some familiar person now is a good time."

"No one is coming to help you, trash." a pistol was pointed at the guy. "DIE!"

A bullet covered with the orange Dying Will Flame of the Sky came charging towards the intruder and would most probably end his life if it wasn't for the powerful fireball to be parted into two harmless condenses of gas somehow.

"What the h-" the Varia Sky wasn't able to complete his sentence as several small amounts of Gunpowder were sent flying in his direction. By Mafia instinct, Xanxus dodged sideways to prevent himself from being blowed up like the floor beneath him that got hit.

"What is this?!" Xanxus questioned, still a little shocked at the somehow familiar attack. Somewhere deep down in his memory he feels that it should be there... Something he was suppose remember...

*PING*

Before Xanxus got lost in his thoughts, he was pulled back by the sudden attack from his opponent and was just in time to block whatever that was attacking him with his gun. Then was when he could actually see the face of his attacker.

"Shark trash, WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Xanxus roared as he jumped back quickly to look at the man in front of him. Long silver hair with almost matching silver eyes, wearing a Varia uniform as well as a sword attached to the left hand. It's his Second in Command all right, no doubt about it.

"Fufu. Isn't it obvious?" the hat-guy stepped forward and placed a hand on the silverette's shoulder. "He's my ally."

"Subordinate of mine is never ally of yours." Xanxus protested. "Not before. Not now. Not ever!"

"Believe it or not, this guy is at my side now." the guy shot the Varia Boss a smirk. "Not yours."

"What the fuck are you anyway?" Xanxus questioned, nut the words come out more like a demand than a question. He aimed his pistol at the guy's hat and fired. The guy ducked to safe himself from being burned into ashes but his hat was unfortunately hit and burned, revealing short raven hair. The once closed black eyelids slowly opened, revealing baby blue eyes.

"Aren't you..." Xanxus stared at the guy who slowly stood up and ran his fingers through his dark locks. "Fiancata?!"

"Please, my friend, just call me Settentrionale will do." the raven said. "But that is, for the remaining time you have left."

The words fall like a command. At the end of that sentence, the shark sprung forward, trying to catch the Varia Boss off guard but didn't quite succeed as Xanxus quickly blocked the blade with his gun.

"Get a hold of yourself, you scum." Xanxus demanded towards his Rain Guardian. "What is with you?"

His words seemed to have reach death ears as Squalo apparently ignored his boss's words and continued attacking from various angles but were all blocked by the older man.

"Shitty shark, you asked for it." Xanxus growled in anger as he emitted the Flame of Wrath identical to the Vongola Secondo in his left hand and aimed his fist at the swordsman before firing a huge fireball that exploded near the abdomen. To the shark's disadvantage, he wasn't quick enough to react and got hit directly. The pressure of the flame slamming him backwards and into the wall where Settentrionale landed in few minutes ago.

"Now," the scarred man turned his blood-red eyes towards the other raven-haired man in the room. "what should I do about you?"

"Oh. no no no." the Fiancata Sky shook his index finger in the air. "Not that fast."

Before Xanxus could figure out what those words mean, he already got his answer when he was literally cut by the air in front of him. As he clenched his bleeding arm, he looked up to see his supposed-to-be subordinate already standing on his feet, sword in position to give another attack any time.

"You just don't know when to give up huh, shark trash?" Xanxus taunted as he closed the distance between him and the silverette with inhuman speed and delivered a punch to the shark's wounded stomach, causing him to spit out blood and land on his knees.

"That should do you enough," Xanxus glared at his Second in Command on the floor. "stop interrupting my business with the trash."

"My friend, my friend." the said 'trash' at the other side of the room shook his head disapprovingly. "You should know your subordinate better than me that he doesn't get defeated that easily. Nor does he gave up."

Xanxus was about to shut that mouth of the freaking trash the hell up by firing his X-guns at him but was disrupted when he was knocked against the back, causing him to fire the opposite direction of his target, creating the disintegrated clump beside the desk that was hit by the compressed annoyed, he was about to shot his Rain Guardian but was immediately cut off when a powerful blow was sent to his left gun, paralyzing his left arm in the process. The gun was knocked off from his hand and sent flying to the opposite end of the room soon afterwards. But it's not as if it'll have any use anymore since he can't use his left hand.

"Don't you ever have enough?!" Xanxus yelled. He attempted to hand his right elbow on the shark but was easily blocked by the other's sword. The raven pulled back immediately and lifted his left leg up, sending a kick to the surprised shark's side with a satisfying thud and got him flying across the floor.

"If I have to get through you before getting to the trash, I would!" the Varia Boss hissed lowly as he made his way towards the Rain who was trying to regain his stance. "So don't think I won't dare to kill you here and now."

The silverette still remained wordless but continued his previous attach by lunging forward and slashing his sword diagonally at his boss. The move surprisingly managed to cut off a few strands of dark hair from the raven, but other than that, he's unharmed.

"I really would like to remind you now," Xanxus said as he lifted his right gun and pointed it at Squalo. "that I'm you boss for a reason." the huge fireball exploded near the shark, who only just managed to dodge it to save his dear life, but his left arm seemed to have taken the attack and was bleeding, the red liquid soaked the sleeve, dyeing it red too.

With the Rain Guardian caught off guard, the Varia Boss quickly moved behind the swordsman to deliver a hard knock against his skull, sending him unconscious and falling onto the solid ground.

"Remember that."

"Bravo" Xanxus turned his attention to the person clapping at the other side of the room, the only word that could describe the expression on his face now is, irritation.

"Now," the Varia Sky forced a devilish smirk on his face. "where were we?"

"Don't think just because I lost my 'protector' I'll be totally defenseless." Settentrionale smirked back. "Do you recognize what is this?" he hold out a purple Box covered with cloud-like patterns of a lighter shade of purple.

"Scum, I don't have the habbit of remembering every Box I see."

"Fufu, is that so?" the Fiancata Boss smiled as he lighted the Sky Ring on his right middle finger and punched the orange flame of the Sky into the Box that was held with his left hand. Xanxus starred as the Box started to crack at the entrance surface and the rift keep extending around the other surfaces. Within a minute or two, the Box broke into pieces and the only thing that remained in the hands of the Sky is a sphere of purple.

"Does this ring a bell?" Settentrionale asked again. Xanxus tried taking a better look at the sphere and notices that the purple colour is slowly fading, replaced by a blinding white light. It takes a lot of focus for the Varia Boss to see the little hedgehog inside the light, curled in a small ball. Xanxus's eyes widened.

"Ho, I see you remembered now." the Fiancata Sky smiled as the light from the hedgehog keep expanding, covering a larger and larger radius until both Xanxus and himself were inside the sphere of light.

From the inside of the sphere, it looks as if they're in the sky, with a large invisible circular wall surrounding the two of them. There are spikes located on the walls inside the sphere like an arena ring.

"This is the 'Reverse Needle Sphere Form' of that Vongola Cloud trash..." Xanxus mumbled.

"Bingo!" Settentrionale approached the scarred man. "It certainly took us a lot of effort to create a Box identical to Hibari Kyouya's, but we still somehow managed it as you can see."

"And what are you intending to do with this?"

"Do you still remember how this sphere works?" *smirk* "Here is a completely segregated space that does not allow the presence of any other than two selected individuals. A battle could not be interfered with from the outside. Even other Box Weapons are prevented from entering and no Boxes can be used inside."

"Yeah, and so what?" the raven haired man questioned. "Do you think you could beat me just because I don't have my Box Weapon with me?" he raised his right hand to show the pistol still in it.

"Oh no no no." Settentrionale shook his finder in disapproval. "Do you still remember the last part? The most important part?"

"Oxygen?"

"Wrong answer!" he shook his head. "In here, a Ring's attribute can still be used because it only seals the Box Weapons but not the Dying Will Flames from the user."

"And is that all?" Xanxus questioned once again, pointing his pistol at the other's skull. "If you planned on having that as you're last words, I'll gladly guarantee that."

He pulled the trigger, but surprisingly nothing came out. Not the large yellow-orange fireball that he had expected, but plainly nothing. More curious than ever, the Varia Boss turned his attention from his weapon to his opponent, demanding for an answer.

"Fufufu, you really are an impatient one, aren't you. I haven't even complete my speech yet."

"The hurry the fuck up and spill it, NOW!"

"Alright alright, since you asked for it." his baby blue eyes turned from a kind one into a serious one. "I may have said just now that this Box is identical to Hibari's, but actually we made some extra changes to it." *smirk* "In here, no Dying Will Flames are allowed, and that includes your Flame of Wrath that you're so proud of."

Xanxus's eyes widened. If his Flame of Wrath was sealed, he would be of higher disadvantage as he cannot use his main power. As for the other guy, since he decided to use this technique, he's probably very confident with his combat skills.

"Don't think I'll lose just because I have to fight you empty-handed." the Varia Boss said as he kept his gun into his jacket.

"Fufu, why of course." he smiled again as he took out a short metal stick from his pocket which expanded, turning into a quarterstaff. He took the first move by leaping forward and swinging his weapon in from the outside, which was easily halted as Xanxus grabbed the other end, but he was quick with his next move by leaping upwards and landing behind the other Sky, sliding his leg against both of the Varia leader's feet. But Xanxus jumped just in time before being tripped and released his hold on the other's weapon.

"Thanks for giving it back." Xanxus heard those words before a hit was delivered to his left shoulder and was sent landing heavily on the ground. Before he could get to his feet, the quarterstaff was already charging in his direction, and if it's not for the fact that Xanxus moved sideways just in time, his ribcage would have been torn by then.

Xanxus quickly made his attack by grabbing hold of Settentrionale right arm and threw him across the the space in the sphere, with his back almost making contact with the spikes on the wall.

"Phew, that was a close one." the younger male commented as he wiped the blood on his left cheek off with his free hand.

"That's to teach you to never underestimate your opponent."

"Fufu, I would never said that I have ever underestimated you, my friend." Settentrionale replied as he did a front flip and landed on his feet once again. He was quick to resume his attack by charging towards Xanxus and thrusting his weapon towards his target. The Varia Boss moved his head away just in time and moved again when the quarterstaff thrusted at him again and jumped when it made a horizontal sweep just centimeters above the ground.

During that split second when he was in the air, he kneed his opponent in the back, causing him to lean forward and almost tripped on his feet. Settentrionale spun around and send his weapon to the side and hitting Xanuxs right in the abdomen. Upon receiving the impact, the scarred man landed heavily on the ground, coughing out some blood at the same time.

"Fufu, what's the matter? Can't fight without your flame?" the Fiancata Sky mocked.

The Varia leader got up and lifted his right fist for a punch on the other man's face but was immediately blocked by the other's left arm. With his free hand tightening the grip on his weapon, he swung it against Xanxus's right arm, paralyzing it too with the strong shockwave.

"How is it? Do you wish to admit your defeat now?" Settentrionale asked. "Don't be irrational, you don't have your flame and neither of your arms can barely move now. Admit defeat now and maybe I'll reward you with a painless death."

Before Xanxus could utter another word, both men heard the sound of walls crashing. They look up and saw the ceiling cracking and the walls along with the spikes attached to it are beginning to fall. Both men hurry up and dodged the falling ceiling as well as the other walls that are corrupting.

"What the hell?!" Settentrionale exclaimed as he blocked another broken wall with his quarterstaff. "This space isn't supposed to be destroyed from the outside, how is this happening?"

A/N: Okay, this is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too hard for me. I swear my english sucks and my phrasing sucks too. Actually the main point is I have not clue to the EXTREME how to write fighting scenes!

URRRAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH！！！

I apologize if this isn't updated soon enough for some of you who are out there waiting ( if there's actually anyone... ) because I had a week camp overseas and when I came back I just feel like dying! And I should considered myself lucky because I wasn't bitten by any mosquitoes out there. *Phew*

Once again sorry, even though I said that the chpt would be longer, it's only longer by 1000 words. -.-

I feel so hopeless...

Anyway, I'm going overseas again tomorrow for two weeks. I'm not sure if I can update the next chpt there but I'll try, Okay?

Hope you enjoyed your day as well as this story!

Please review! That's the only thing that makes an author happy! Serious!
