She was

by: ChosenAnika

Genre: Family, Friendship, Drama, Romance

Summary: She was not part of the Vongola famiglia, not one known by Reborn, and certainly not a student council of some sort. So what's so different about her? Maybe, just maybe, it's because of her catchphrase, "I'll bite your head off." Now definitely, that is something.

Chapter 8

...

Morning came and as usual, Tsuna was running in his uniform. Though this occurrence may seem usual, the unusual thing is that a man with blond hair in a white tank top and orange construction worker jump suit was looking at his retrieving back. It was Sawada Iemitsu, Tsuna's father. He was looking at his son with proud eyes.

"You aren't going to tell Tsuna who you are?" a certain arcobaleno, Reborn, asked.

Iemitsu only smiled at him and replied, "There wasn't a good time." while stretching. "But in the end it all worked out."

Iemitsu then started walking back to the house while shouting to Nana, his wife, for food. Reborn was looking at the scene when he suddenly spoke with all seriousness as he tuck his fedora down.

"Did you know?"

"Huh?" Iemitsu glanced back to Reborn, confused.

"Albino Chosen." Reborn whispered but Iemitsu heard clearly.

After hearing the name, Iemitsu stopped on his tracks and became quiet. The two stayed on their places for a while, not really minding the silence that enveloped them. But they both knew that they have something to talk about, and stalling is not an answer.

"Yes." Iemitsu answered before continuing on entering the house. "The ninth asked for her help."

"I see." Reborn mumbled before going on his way.

"Ah! Sa-chan, do we have tomatoes left?"

"Un."

"Ginger? Vinegar? Sugar?"

"Un."

This has been on and on since five'o clock in the morning. All Aihara's sister had done was question her about things that they have in the house and order her to buy things they don't have. She was practically annoyed to go to the market early in the morning because (1) it was troublesome, (2) there are crowds everywhere, and (3) some items were so peculiar she doesn't even know if they exist. This made all the shopping at the market difficult.

"Ne Sa-chan, how does kotatsu work?" Her sister asked as it scanned through the pages of a magazine Aihara didn't even know they had. "I think we should get one. It looks comfy."

Aihara did not bother replying anymore. She regretted wanting her sister talk. She kind of misses the sister that she had conversed with yesterday; the calm, collected and serious sister. Aihara sighed, never really liked dealing with her childish older sister.

"Oh! Are you heading for school?" Her sister asked and immediately shoved a lunch box to Aihara. "I made this bento for your lunch."

"Ah."

"Did you make any friends?" The white haired woman asked with glee. Her green orbs shining with excitement. "I want to meet them!"

Aihara only shook her head before heading to the door. She bid goodbye to Kuro and stroked its fur.

"Let me meet them tomorrow! I'll make beef stew." Aihara's sister said as she held onto Aihara's uniform. "And I won't take no for an answer."

She was smiling from ear to ear that Aihara struggled not to hit her in the face. Aihara never knew that a smile could be so annoying.

"Don't you have work?" She heaved a defeated sigh. "Don't concern yourself with worthless matters."

The older woman pouted. "I do have. But I am also your onee-chan so I need to know who your friends are." She pinched Aihara's cheeks hard.

"I don't have friends." Aihara bluntly said. Her expression dull as ever.

Suddenly, the air became thick and it was hard to breath. Aihara was starting to regret what she said when she saw her sister's face. Black aura was emitting around her and she was looking at Aihara with the intent to kill.

"What did you say, Sa-chan?" She asked in a low hissing voice. "You don't have... friends?"

Aihara would never admit that she feared her sister when it's mad. After all, we are talking about the First here. As quickly as possible, Aihara dashed out of their house, running from her sister's fury.

'She's late' Inside the Disciplinary Committee room, a certain raven haired prefect thought, while looking at a ring on his hand. He was sitting on the couch, waiting for his prey, Aihara, to drop by the room. The cuts and wounds from the battle yesterday were no longer as visible as they were before.

Waiting was never his forte so as time passes; he was starting to get impatient. Another thing that made him more impatient was the ring he was holding, he don't know what it was, why he had it and how did it get to him. All he knew is that its broken and has a weird cloud mark on it. After a couple of minutes thinking, Kyoya felt presence behind the door. The door then opened revealing a certain yellow haired Italian, Dino.

"So you're Hibari Kyoya."

"Who are you?" Hibari asked, eyes narrowing dangerously.

"I'm Dino. Tsuna's older brother." Dino introduced himself.

Kyoya only shot a short "Hn." as a reply. Not really interested to the guy until…

"I'm also Reborn's old acquaintance." Dino said with a knowing smile. Suddenly, Kyoya smirked. That last sentence was what piqued his interest.

"I see. So you're strong." Kyoya said before standing from the couch.

"I want to talk to you about the ring with the cloud mark." Kyoya no longer minded what Dino said about the ring. All he need is to bite the herbivore in front of him, who he assumes is strong considering he's an acquaintance of that baby.

"I don't care about all that." Kyoya revealed his metal tonfa, "As long as I could bite you to death."

Kyoya didn't seem to mind anymore that his prey, Aihara, was late. At least there is this new herbivore that he could bite while she's not around.

Aihara was heading to the school when she come a across a certain infant with fedora. She observed as trail of smoke in front of them and a running figure who she does not know.

"Ciaossu" Reborn greeted Aihara which was replied with a nod. "Going to school?"

"Un." Aihara answered before walking ahead of the infant.

The infant tuck his fedora down and said, "Tell the teachers that Sawada, Gokudera, and Yamamoto won't be attending the class."

Aihara glanced back to where the infant was a minute ago but found no one. She sighed before continuing on her tracks with only one thing on her mind. 'I don't know who those creatures are nor do I care.'

When she came to school, she went straight to the Disciplinary Committee's room. She was expecting to see a certain prefect in the room but what welcomed her was an empty room. She checked the time and found that around this time is when the prefect barges in to disturb her sleep.

'looks like someone's running late' she muttered in her mind. She placed her bag on the floor and lay down on the couch. Thoughts started to float in her mind.

"So he's coming." Aihara mumbled as she recalled her sister's words.

"Kyo's coming back" the woman with white locks whispered. "If I were you, I would take the orders seriously."

Aihara took a small piece of paper from her pocket. "Train. Fight. Orders." She muttered quietly to herself. She then sat back up and looked through the window. "Train. Fight. Orders."

She stood from the chair and went towards the window. A certain Hibari Kyoya went flashing to her mind. 'If it's about training and fighting, biting that creature is the best option.' She thought and headed out of the room not knowing that a certain white haired girl was observing her from afar with those dark red orbs.
