Chapter 8 – Google Chrome
"When does it begin?" Tsuna asks already in HDWM. I smile and slowly take off my cloak. Folding it neatly and short-warping to Chrome. Everyone flinches(Except for Hibari, he's too cool to flinch) and I can feel Mukuro's intent to kill if I touch her.
"Chrome-chan, can you please hold on to this for me?" I ask nervously but don't show it. She nods slowly and I set it down next to her before short-warping back to my spot. "The match… starts… Now~"
It started off really fun if you ask me. Tsu-chan charged at me really fast but not fast enough. His hand was thrown back and when his fist was about to hit me I used my index finger to stop it. I mean sure I slid back a bit but I yawned right when I blocked.
"You're not even trying." Tsu-chan gritted his teeth in annoyance.
"No, I yawned. I haven't slept that much thanks to Bermuda." I pout but I don't think they can tell. "Anyways, my turn~"
I reach out and pulled his head closer, kissing his forehead(through bandages, yes). My phone starts vibrating.
I pushed him away and jumped back, taking out my phone and answering.
"What is it, I'm busy."
"It's Bermuda, sorry about this but we forgot that we had a lot of missions for you." My eye twitches.
"NYEH!" I throw my hand in the air in annoyance. "Fine. I'm coming, but give me a second. I was battling with an old friend, remember?"
"Right, please come fast. I'll explain when you get here."
"Yeah, sure, Bye-Bii~" I hung up and turned to Tsu-chan who was slightly blushing and rubbing his forehead.
"What was that for?" He hissed.
"For memories," I answered immediately, everyone looked surprised. "Anyways, do you mind if we postpone this gam—I mean match?"
"Why, scared you'll lose?" Tsu-chan smirked.
"I'm not scared I'll lose, I already know I'll lose…" I muttered the last part. "But I just got a call from Bermuda-chan and apparently I have a boatload of missions to go on. Don't worry, I'll be back to finish this ga—match."
She really thinks it as a game! Is it really that easy to read their minds?
"Course I think it's a game! Games are fun to play with friends! Anyways, is it alright?" I stare intently at Tsu-chan. He sighs and nods. "Thank you~"
I short-warp next to Chrome and grab my cloak, draping it over my shoulders.
"You," Mukuro says. "I think we all noticed this but… Why don't you have a pacifier?"
"I told you didn't you? I'm different than the others. But I guess I should say it while I'm still here." I say looking up at the ceiling. "I'm 100% human who was trained by the best in Vendicare for about 6 months."
"Why only half a year?" Fran asks, despite not wanting to, I turn to him.
"Oh, they said I learned fast and tomorrow is my birthday as well so, y'know…" I shrug.
"Tomorrow is your birthday? Why aren't celebrating with your family then?" Tsu-chan asks walking up.
"Cause they're all dead." I lied, creating a portal behind me. "I should leave for now…" I grab Chrome's hand and pull her in the portal with me. "But I need to borrow Chrome, sorry!"
"MUKURO-SAMA!" Chrome screamed. Yup, cute, little, timid, quiet Chrome screamed.
"CHROME!" Everyone stood, Mukuro looked like he was going to kill me but the portal shut before they could come closer.
We appeared in my room and I sat her down on my bed and I sat on a chair that was in front of my bed.
"P-please d-don't h-hurt m-me…" She stuttered, backing away.
"I would never hurt you, Chrome. You're my friend, I can't hurt a friend." I shake my head. "I just need you for when the battle actually starts."
"W-we're not friends! Y-you want to t-take back Mukuro-sama!"
"To think you were always happy with seeing me…" I sighed. Bermuda came in with Jagger.
"Oh, why is Chrome Dokuro here?" Bermuda asks.
"I sort of, well, kidnapped her…" I poked my index fingers together.
"Why is that?" Bermuda asks a little irritated.
"Cause I need her for the next part of my plan, do you have another uniform like mine?" I ask.
"In your draws, remember? We supplied you with a few extras."
"Oh yeah!" I smile. "Hey Bermuda, can I show Chrome-chan who I am? Since they're gonna find out anyways and I really don't want her to be scared of me." Bermuda looked at Jagger and they contemplated it.
"Whatever you'd like, Principessa." I pulled out an extra outfit and handed it to Chrome. "Here, go change in the bathroom. Come out when you're done."
She nodded hesitantly before heading towards my bathroom.
"Oh, and you can't reach Mukuro from here and he can't reach you either." I informed her while taking my cloak off and setting it on the bed. She turned around scared.
"Just go get changed. Wait, I need to help you with the bandages." I turn to Bermuda who sets down a few folders on my desk them leaves with Jagger I lock the door and turn back to Chrome.
"W-why are you making me d-do this…" She asks.
"Here," I start peeling of the bandages starting from my chin. I tilt my hat down so she can't see above my nose and I take the last bandages from my face. I hid all my hair in my hat because A) it would give my identity away, B) I didn't want to cut it.
"You… really are still human…?" She asks hesitantly.
"Always have been…" I take my hat off, letting my hair cascade dramatically down slowly to my knees. "I missed you so much, Chrome."
"L-L-Lacie?!" She stared at me and shock before starting to sob and I engulf her in a hug(annoying the fact her face is in my boobs, aye, she's like a little sister to me, even if she's older than me). "B-b-but… you… V-Vindice…"
"I've been in Vendicare for the past nine years, I got out 6 months ago and they trained me to be one of them. But it just so happened they planned on revealing my identity this way." I explained.
"So why do you need me…"
"Because, my sweet little Google Chrome, you are my hostage and partner in crime."
Bwahahaha. Yeah, the hint that I left before? That was one of the options of the chapter, then I didn't like it and changed the whole thing so… yeah. But I still might use that part.
