Prologue 2: Saying Good-bye Again
Warning: Slight Cussing and this chapter will be happier and long-winded! (I think...)
Recap: Akemi's brother died. Yeah, that was pretty much it...
Blood.
That was all I could see.
It was everywhere... and I was scared.
I ran as fast as I could... but what was I running away from?
" Argh!" I woke up immediately. That dream had been hunting me since 3 years ago (A/N: Yeah, so 3 year time skip! I'm lazy, deal with it! XD). I clutched onto a single snowflake necklace. Memories of that day came flooding back to my 8-years-old mind...
(Not So) Epic Flashback~ (In a hospital)
" Eisuke-nii..." Tears kept flowing down my cheeks and I let them. I still can't believe that he is... dead. As it turned out, the truck's driver was a drunkard. Don't they ever realize that in a matter of seconds because of their goddammit fucking urge to drink while driving, they can take away an innocent live?
" Can someone by the name of Akemi come here?" a nurse said, breaking my thoughts. I dragged my feet across the floor and lifted my head up to meet her gaze.
" You are Akemi?" I nodded my head, tears still streaming down my pale face.
" Your brother clutched onto this bag that seemed to be a present for you. It took a few nurses to take it out of his grip," she explained. She handed me a light blue bag with a little bloodstains.
' This is...' My red, puffy eyes widened. I unwrapped the bag carefully as if it was fragile. Inside the bag was a snowflake necklace and a small note.
It read: Happy Birthday! I know you love snowflakes so Ta-Da! It was really hard to get so treasure it!
" E-Eisuke-nii..." My hands trembled from clutching the note too tightly. My knees buckled and I began to cry all over again with my little hands wiping my tears away but to no avail.
' I will never forget you, Eisuke-nii'
(Not So) Epic Flashback Ends~
Till this day I still could not move on about his death. I had stopped watching animes and stopped crying since then. I became a somewhat emotionless shell. My so-called parents took it hard but not as hard as I did. They stopped caring about me, not that they cared about me in the first place anyway. The reason why they even let me stay at their house still, it's because they do not want to lose face.
I stared blankly at my alarm clock which read 7.06 am in bright red color. My parents are still sleeping, I suppose. I decided to sneak out of the damn house to take a breather. I changed my PJs to a yellow hoddie and an orange shorts with my necklace still on, and yes I know I suck at fashion.
I climbed out of the window and jumped. My animal instincts took over and I landed safely on the ground. I put on my black and white sneakers quickly and walked along the streets. Ever since I was young, I have this animal instincts which basically means that I have certain animal abilities at times I want or in danger, unfortunately it does not work all the time. I suppose kind of like... Ah ha! Tsuna's hyper will intuition! It's kind of like Tsuna's hyper will intuition!
I walked aimlessly on the streets, looking out for vehicles. I always can't help but flinch whenever I see a vehicle near me.
' Maybe I should go to the mall...' I thought before heading in the direction of it.
' Oh fuck. Just great,' was all I thought when I am being held hostage with a knife on my neck. Hostage, knife and neck. That's right, people! A random weirdo just grab me because I am a fucking eight-years-old and threatened to kill me if the police don't let him off.
" Damn bastard, just had to catch me during my break, don't you!?" I yelled into his ear. Disbelief was seen on the witnesses' faces. Well, it wasn't everyday you see a kid shout someone's ear off, especially if the guy is trying to kill you. I caught him by surprise and I managed to elbow him in the gut, hard. He let me go out of pain and I kicked him in the place where the sun doesn't shine.
" Serve you right for ruining my mood," I said as I glared at him. Though I did not know it looked more like a pout. However, what I did not expect was that he recovered quickly and stabbed me in my stomach. He fucking damn stabbed me in the stomach. It hurt a lot as I fell to the ground, face planted to the ground. Not really a nice way to die, is it?
' Wait, does this mean I will be able to see Eisuke-nii again?' That was my last thought before the curtains close on my life.
' Or so I thought...' I am now currently floating among the clouds. Why the hell am I even here in the first place? Aren't I supposed to go to heaven or something? I wandered, or more like floating around cautiously. As I continued to float, I saw a mist ahead. Something seemed to be in there. I floated closer to the mist. As I went closer, the clearer the mist became. I was wrong, there was not something in there, it was someone.
In my thoughts of thinking whether I should go nearer, a voice broke my thoughts. A very familiar voice.
" Akemi... is that you?" Just that one statement was enough for me to glomp that person regardless of who it was.
" Eisuke-nii! I miss you!" I exclaimed, but muffled as my face was in his clothes. I felt a hand ruffling my hair and I purred contently. How I missed these feelings.
" Hey, there Akemi! Long time no see!" he said with a wide smile I have not seen in a long time, " well, judging from the events earlier, I presume you died?"
" Yes I did! Wait... judging from the events earlier... YOU WERE WATCHING ME!" I shouted a bit too loud.
" Umm no, I stole Hibird and made it report to me every details... OF COURSE I WAS WATCHING YOU WHAT DO YOU THINK!" he yelled in the same tone as me. We stared at each other for one moment... two moment... three moment... then we laughed out loud. I felt so refreshed! It's been a while since I laughed.
" Ehh... Akemi. I have something important to tell you," he said seriously. I nodded my head.
" So, how do I say this?" (Eisuke)
" How about from the beginnning?" (Akemi)
" Okay... When I died I had many regrets, leaving you was one of my biggest regret. Then I met this... angel I think and she agreed to grant one of my wishes to relieve some of my regrets, get it so far?"
" I see... no actually I don't."
" *facepalm* I somehow expected that but nevermind. As I was saying, an angel granted me a wish and I kinda gotten selfish there..."
" In what way?" 'I have a really bad feeling about this...'
" Well, I asked the angel to transport you into the world of your favorite anime which is Katekyo Hitman Reborn, so yeah."
"... SAY WHAT?!" I yelled, very loudly.
" Chill, Akemi. Chill," Eisuke-nii said.
" How can I freaking chill when I just realized you wasted a wish on me by transporting me to the anime world when I had stopped watching animes since 3 freaking years ago! Are you crazy, Eisuke-nii!?" I shouted while flailing my arms about.
" Truth to be told, I am crazy."
"... point taken," I said, giving in until I noticed that Eisuke-nii had started to glow.
" Opps, it is almost time up for me," he said sadly.
" H-Huh? W-What do you mean, Eisuke-nii?" I asked, afraid of the answer.
" It means it is time for me to be going," he said while petting my head, " and also time for you to be going too." He pointed at me with his free hand. I then noticed I too was also glowing. " However, we are not going together."
" W-Why *hic* n-not?" I was already crying for the first time in the past three years," you shouldn't have wasted that wish on me *hic* you should have used it *hic* for your own good. Why did you even want to do so much for me when I *hic* caused your death?"
He just smiled softly, and the words that he said moved me deeply. He pressed his forehead against mine and said," Baka. The reason I did this is all because of two things. It is because I am your beloved nii-chan[1] and because you are my precious immouto[2]." More tears came flooding out my eyes as I clutched onto his shirt tightly.
" It is time for us to part now, Akemi. If you ever miss me, remember that I will always be here," he whispered but loud enough for me to hear as he pointed to my snowflake necklace. ' Since when was that there?' I mumbled some words to him and we both smiled brightly.
All of the sudden we were both engulfed in a bright light.
In the KHR world~ (When Tsuna is about 12-years-old)
' I somehow have this nagging feeling that something is going to happen' thought Tsuna as he walked down the route to his house.
' Hmm? What's that lying on the ground?' In the middle of his path was a girl wearing a yellow hoodie, orange shorts and black and white sneakers. Lying on her neck was a snowflake necklace...

" Arigatou... and Sayonara!"
