I yawned. It was the day after Dino had arrived, and we were going to be late for school. Gokudera was telling Tsuna about Dino's famiglia, and when he had finished informing Tsuna, my brother realized that they had been talking about the mafia in front of Yamamoto and me. Yamamoto said it was a funny company name, and when Tsuna glanced worriedly at me, I smiled obliviously and pulled out an earbud. "Did you say something?" Tsuna was visibly relieved and told me it was nothing.

A cherry red sports car suddenly pulled up to where I was walking alongside Tsuna and his friends. Two lassos flew out towards us Sawada siblings, but I evaded the rope aimed for me and only Tsuna was captured. Yamamoto and Gokudera yelled in shock.

"Tenth!"

"Tsuna?!"

As Tsuna was dragged along behind the car screaming, I waved to him cheerfully, shouting "Have fun, Tsu-kun!" and then walked forward and around the corner, much to the bewildered stares from his future Guardians.

I could hear Reborn appear behind the boys and tell them it was the Momokyokai yakuza that had kidnapped Tsuna. They ran off, and moments later, the soft hum of a car engine informed me that Dino's car had circled around the block to end up back there. Tsuna was then untied and told Dino's motives. Then Reborn spoke up.

"Ah. I forgot to tell you guys." His student and past student looked to him. "Momokyokai is,"

I took this as my cue to re-enter the scene.

"A real, existing yakuza in this town."

Two heads spun around to face me.

"Nee-chan!"

I sighed and flipped my hair over my shoulder. "Really, Tsuna, your friends are so reckless. I heard the Momokyokai were really powerful too."

Dino and Tsuna started panicking and yelling at Reborn, who fell asleep.

"Hey, Reborn, are you listening?!" He wasn't.

Dino gritted his teeth, and told Tsuna they were going to rescue his friends, completely ignoring his protests. Tsuna looked desperately at me.

"I think you should go too. And I," I looked at my watch, "am going to school. See you later!" I waved.

"Yeah, see you later!" Dino waved back, and I let out another light giggle, to Tsuna's horror. I then skipped off to school.

Shit. Shit shit shit. Shitshitshitshitshitshitshit!

I was running. Again. Not from the yakuza this time though. I was running from something much, much worse.

"ROAR!"

I was running from an angry mama bear.

How did I end up like this?!

I couldn't even fight the animal yet, as there was absolutely no space to do so in this dense forest. My eyes darted left and right looking for a clearing, even as I leapt over logs and batted branches out of my way. The enraged bear after my blood simply charged through everything in its way.

I kind of wished our positions were reversed, just so I wouldn't have to jump and duck and bat things out of my way, then realized that was a ridiculous thought. Nobody in their right mind would chase after a bear. But then again...

There! I could see the light streaming in through the gaps between the trees, signalling a break in the forest wall. I poured on more speed, hoping I would be able to reach it before I was mauled by the bear. The bear must have also noticed that we would soon break out of the forest, because it started charging through the bush with more intensity than before.

Almost... there...

Yes! I was through!

But celebrations would have to wait. Right now, I had a bear to defeat.

Tsuna was asking Kyoko and Haru what they were doing in the forest when a figure wearing a black hoodie and camo pants burst through the trees with a furious brown bear on its tail.

"KYAAAA!"

The person seemed not to notice the screams. Tsuna watched as they turned around to face the bear and pull a long staff out of nowhere, then look at it and discard it. The next item they pulled out - again out of nowhere - was a short metal bar with hooks on the sides - a sai? - which they also found unsatisfactory. Then they found a pair of knuckle dusters, which they slipped on, and shifted into a fighting stance.

The apparently suicidal person also made a 'come on then' gesture at the bear. The bear did not like it. At all.

It roared again and charged forward, swiping a giant paw, which the person ducked under. In the opening, they stepped forward to land a hit on the bear's stomach and stepped out again just as quickly. It continued in this fashion for a while, with the bear swiping and the hooded person landing hits in the openings.

Then one time the person was a little slow to duck down, and bear's swipe made their hood fly off. Long brown hair flowed out and the person clicked their tongue in annoyance. They leapt backwards out of the bear's range and reached into their pocket while dancing around the bear to avoid its swipes. They brought something dark green out - a bandana? - and pushed their hair back with it. Tsuna could finally see the mysterious bear-fighter's face and when he did, he gasped.

It was his sister. His sister was fighting a bear. His sister was fighting a bear.

He nearly fainted. Nearly.

His sister was still fighting the bear, but even he could see the battle would end soon. The bear was slowing down. She must have administered a tranquilizer some time during the battle. Tsuna watched as the bear's swipes became less frequent and fierce, then it finally slumped onto the ground.

His sister stepped forward to pat the unconscious bear on the head. Whispering an apology to it, she turned and froze when she finally noticed that she had spectators.

She stared at them. They stared at her. She opened her mouth.

"I haven't killed anyone yet."

Omake – Other things she could have said, I had a hard time deciding.

"It's all in your head."

"You're all hallucinating."

"It's not what it looks like!"

"It wasn't me."

Yeah, I don't know how to fight. You can probably tell. I also had my braces adjusted today, and changed the colours. As a tribute to 182769, I had the top purple and the bottom orange. I'll be snickering like a loser about it for weeks.

Reaper Senpai: Yes, yes he is.

WindWhistle21: I'm glad you find it hilarious.

Guest: That is the type of reaction I was hoping to get.

turtlehoffmann2251: Yeah, I feel sorry for him. Doesn't mean I'm going to stop though.

Thanks for reading. Hope you enjoyed. Tell me if there's anything you particularly want to see, or if you noticed something was off, or if you particularly liked something.
