Author's Note: I feel so bad for Minako, she never got a chance to even see Sil! Then again, I wonder if she would have gotten severely hurt? If that happened, I could imagine Hibari flying over from Japan to beat up everyone that hurt Minako!

I turn to Squalo as I hear the conversation between him and Fran through my earpiece. "Captain Squalo, one of the six Funeral Wreaths is on the south side," Fran reports.

"Tch, we were on the wrong side!" Squalo replies.

"What? I wanted to fight a Funeral Wreath. You'd better have some extra fun fighting, Fran," I say.

"Gotcha," Fran replies. "Anyways, there's a real shocker. It's Bel-senpai's dead brother."

"Eh? What are you talking about?" Squalo asks.

"He survived, I guess," Fran replies, "and he's got a tough looking butler too."

"I don't really understand, but you can give me the details later," Squalo replies. "The truth is, I'm kind of busy…" Squalo and I slash at the group of incoming enemies. "…right now!" he finishes.

"Yeah, that's right," I say as I continue to attack the enemies coming from behind.

"Levi! Lussuria! We've got a Funeral Wreath! Go back up Bel and Fran!" Squalo commands.

"But we're slightly busy ourselves," Lussuria replies. "There was an explosion to the north and our guards were taken out."

I continue to run with Squalo. "What?!" he exclaims.

"Levi's on his way," Lussuria says. Then he starts to explain, "The enemy must by trying to overwhelm us with sheer numbers by attacking from all sides. We've got a bunch of injured here, so I can't go either."

I continue attacking the enemies that are coming up from behind us. "Lussuria!" Squalo exclaims, "Focus on providing support from the castle!"

Lussuria sighs on the other end. "I'm getting tired of this. I want to fight someone, but I'm stuck with all these chores. Guess I have no choice."

"Bel! Fran! You guys do something about the Funeral Wreath!" Squalo commands loudly. I continue to knock out the incoming enemies pretty easily, but there are just a countless number of them. It's annoying. Just like how Onii-san describes his day- beating up a never-ending flow of herbivores.

"At this point, it's just a matter of endurance," I comment as the next group of enemies fall to the ground.

Squalo looks as though he's about to reply, but suddenly, he looks up. "What's that?" he asks. I look up and see three blue things floating in the sky.

"We believe them to be three box weapons. They're headed for the castle," one of the grunts explains through the earpiece. "I shall launch an attack!" Bel and Fran got killed…

"Don't attack!" I shout.

"Hold off the attack!" Squalo shouts at the same time.

Through my earpiece, the same voice exclaims, "Arugg!" He was killed too, huh? I glance at the three box weapons flying off into the distance. A Funeral Wreath has this much power… Sounds like even more fun now.

"Lussuria! Do you copy?" Squalo asks as he jumps up onto a tree branch. I follow.

"Huh? What?" Lussuria replies. Suddenly there a loud crashing sound. I look over towards the direction of the castle. There's smoke.

"Tch," Squalo says.

I look around and I jump up. "They're gathering again…" I report. I scowl at the enemies. "Don't you know that I hate crowds?" I ask. I attack the enemies out irritation.

"You're too into the Cloud Guardian's description," Squalo says as he attacks the remaining enemies.

"Hah. Don't joke around. This is how I was to begin with," I reply. "Let's finish up here quickly. I want to get a chance to fight the Funeral Wreath."

Squalo laughs now. "You have too much bloodlust for a girl."

Squalo's shark flies around knocking people out as Squalo slashes at the people as well. I use my naginata and have my crows and raven flying around as I attack with illusions occasionally. The leader of the group curses at us. "How could just two people do this to us?!"

"If you wanna take me out, you'd better bring a million!" Squalo replies.

"The more you bring, the more aggravated I get. It's your loss both ways," I say as I glare at the very, very large crowd.

The man growls. "Overwhelm him with numbers! Use Storm Hyena: Iena Tempesta!"

"Yes!"

Suqalo's shark eats the Storm Hyenas. "I-Impossible!" the man exclaims. He turns around and I jump up. "Do whatever it takes to capture them!" he commands.

I slash at him with my naginata and land on the floor. "Shut up."

"Damn piss-ants, I don't have time to play with you," Squalo says. "Hey, Lussuria! If you can hear me, respond! Lussuria! You alive? What happened to the castle?! Lussuria!"

I jump from tree to tree with Squalo. He's to the left right now, so I stay on the trees to the right. "Tch. What's going on? Someone answer me! Respond! Can't you hear me?! Lussuria! Bel! Fran! Levi!" Squalo shouts into the earpiece. He stops jumping suddenly. "Hey! Boss! Respond!" I hear static and Squalo punches the tree angrily. "That stupid boss…" he starts. "He destroyed the earpiece again!" Squalo yells out to the heavens.

As we continue to jump towards the castle, there's a large explosion. I stop with Squalo. "Wow," I comment as I look up at the burst of light in the sky. "That's his power, huh?"

Squalo attacks the man in front of him. "That damn boss, it's been a while since he fought seriously."

I frown. "Sounds like I missed out on quite the show," I comment. "I can understand why Onii-san wanted to fight Xanxus a while ago now."
"A while ago? You're ten years in the future!"

"I know that. Anyways, it looks like it's over," I reply.

When we get to where the castle used to stand, Lussuria is talking to Xanxus about healing him. "Leave him alone, Lussuria! Our boss isn't so weak enough to be done in easily," Squalo says.

"Oh, Squalo! Mianko!" Lussuria greets happily.

Xanxus closes his eyes as he continues to sit on the chair. "You're late, you stupid scum."

"Because the other people were more useless than I expected," Squalo replies. I send him a glare.

"Are you talking about," Bel starts from behind me.

Fran finishes, "Us?"

"It is true, isn't it? You let the enemy through so easily," Squalo replies.

"About that," Fran starts. "It was because Bel-senpai was weaker than is brother."

Bel raises his hand to throw knives at Fran. "I'm the stronger one," he replies. The knives hit the back of Fran's frog hat.

"What are you doing?" Fran asks.

"How was your fighting, Minako?" Lussuria asks.

I cross my arms. "A boring game of endurance involving an irritatingly large crowd of weaklings," I reply.

Lussuria pats me on the back. "My, that's certainly upsetting," he replies. Levi comes trudging over. "My, Levi… You're all beaten up!"

"Never mind me. As long as the boss is safe," he says weakly before he crouches on the ground.

"Oh my. He's so noble," Lussuria says.

"But Levi-san was pretty pathetic, considering how much he bragged. Guess he's not as tough as he looks," Fran comments. I smirk.

Levi looks up and asks, "What?"

"Don't 'what' me, octopus," Bel replies.

"'Octopus?!'" Levi exclaims angrily.

Lussuria walks over to Levi. "Simmer down, children. Look, even Minako is acting more mature than you are," Lussuria says. He places his hands on Levi's shoulders. "Come now, stay still, Levi." He pulls out his box weapon. "Open box!" A peacock appears and Lussuria says cheerily, "Come on, Pea-chan!"

A bright light shines down on Levi and when the light fades, his hair and fingernails have grown incredibly fast. "Wow, he looks even dumber now," Bel comments. I snicker.

"I can't do anything about that," Lussuria replies. "It's proof that his tissue is activating."
"Couldn't we just leave him like this?" Fran suggests. "He looks dumb either way."

"What?!" Levi exclaims. Bel laughs.

"Oh you're right, Fran," I say. "Actually, it might look a little better this way even." I laughs from Bel and Lussuria.

"Hey, Minako! I'm contacting the brats in Japan! Should I let them know that you're alright too?" Squalo calls out.

"Between Onii-san and myself, it's naturally assumed that we're both alright. But, I suppose you should let them know for Tsuna-kun and Kusakabe-san's sake," I reply. Yeah, they'll be relieved to hear.
