Taming the Skylark (A Katekyo Hitman Reborn fanfiction)

Disclaimer: I do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn; Amano Akira-sensei does. Though, of course, the OC is mine.

Teaser: "I'll bite you to death." Everyone knew what this meant; except for Senritsu Nanami, who believed that it was only her underclassman, Hibari Kyoya's roundabout way of saying, "Notice me, senpai!" With him chasing her around the campus and, from time to time, even in the streets of Namimori, was she on the right track after all?


It had been a few days since that incident. And, not a single morning had passed without Nanami being ambushed by Hibari Kyoya. Weird enough, today, the crazy freshman did not chase her to school. Nor did he lie in wait for her at the entrance, or pop from the other side of the lockers.

Nanami heaved a sigh of relief. She never felt so thankful to Kami before. Maybe he got tired? she thought.

Boy, was she wrong.

The moment she opened the door to the disciplinary office, she was greeted with the sight of Hibari seated on her chair with legs resting on top of the table.

She closed the door, praying that it was only her eyes playing tricks on her.

Upon opening it once again, she was surprised to see that the man was already standing, with tonfas on both hands. She locked those in her drawer, she was sure!

"You've done well to avoid me for this long," Hibari gave her a death glare.

She closed the door.

"W-Wrong room." Nanami nervously muttered.

Not less than 10 meters away from the said room, she heard the door slam.

The chase was on.


As soon as the bell rang, the teacher dismissed the class and some students ran for the cafeteria.

It was time for lunch.

Will I eat in the classroom again? Nanami sighed as she turned to look at the door. Indeed, Hibari was already there, waiting for her.

She have always wanted for someone to fetch her so that they can eat lunch and walk home together. CLANG! As if to mock her fantasies, a loud sound was heard near the doorway. It most likely came from Hibari's metal tonfas.

"Stop hiding in your nest, herbivore," he called out impatiently.

A depressing aura enveloped Nanami. I want a boyfriend to fetch me, not a God of Death. Dammit! she cursed beneath her breath.

"Hibari," she finally spoke and faced him. If looks could kill, she would have probably died right there and then. She gulped before continuing. "Aren't you going to eat?"

"Yes." He narrowed his eyes. "I'll bite you to death."

Nanami sighed. No words can get through that bloodthirsty head of his, huh?

However, a single detail had piqued her curiosity. She noticed that he hadn't put a single foot in the classroom.

It seemed like he started to pay more attention to the rules after their first encounter. From what she heard, he was able to run amok in Namimori Middle by using his authority as the head of the Disciplinary Committee. However, as a new student without any position to rely on, he cannot make any reckless actions in Namimori High.

So, he can't attack me with all of these people in the classroom, was her silent assumption.

Nanami decided to ignore him and reached for her bento when the intercom suddenly played.

"Good afternoon, everyone. This is Chi-chan of the Beautification Committee! Today, the physical inspection will start at 12:30. The following people will be asked to attend this mandatory activity..."

As if on cue, murmurs spread in the room like wildfire.

"The participants this time are mostly freshmen, huh? I bet they weren't informed of this tradition." One of the students commented.

"Poor them. Shinpachi will be running the activity again!" A guy shrieked. Cold sweat could be seen forming on his temples. "Eeek! Just imagining it gives me the goosebumps."

Ah, I have to prepare. Nanami stood up, took her bento, and hurriedly walked towards the door.

"Hibari," she stood a safe distance from him.

At the mention of his name, Hibari took a fighting stance and raised his tonfas. "Finally gathered your courage, herbivore?"

"I have council duties to attend to. Let's postpone this for another time."

Silence fell on the whole room. Everyone paused on their individual activities, as they paid close attention to the unbelievable development that was unfolding right before their very eyes. Did Hibari Kyoya just get rejected?

Oblivious to the curious onlookers, Nanami quietly waited for his response.

With an almost inaudible sigh, Hibari lowered his weapons. "Hurry it up or else, I'll bite you to death," he said before walking away.

Everyone sweat-dropped. T-That actually worked?!


"Senritsu-chan, you're here!" A guy with auburn hair, wearing pink sweater and lavish accessories, exclaimed and ran to the other side of the corridor where Nanami stood. He jumped, opened his arms, and Nanami had to firmly remind herself not to dodge for it would be rude for her to do so. Thus, it ended with her almost fainting in his tight hug.

As soon as Nanami regained her breath, they proceeded to the last room in the corridor. "Are the preparations done, Chi-senpai?" she asked.

"Of course! They're all inside!"

Indeed, she could hear numerous voices from the room in front of them. One voice had particularly caught her attention: the voice of a silver-haired freshman that she knew.

"Eh~" Nanami hummed in excitement. "It seems like we'll be having more fun this year."

Both council members grinned maniacally. Unbeknownst to them, a certain brunette was watching them.

The door slammed open.

"Good afternoon, everyone!" greeted Nanami. "As promised, we will be conducting a heart-to-heart inspection today!"

"You again?!" Gokudera gawked and angrily pointed at Nanami who had just entered the room. "What are you planning to do?"

"Gokudera, it's good to see you lively as always," she smiled.

"Though—" With a swift movement, she shortened the distance between the two of them and whispered, "I wonder how long would that last."

"Well then," Shinpachi (aka. Chi-senpai) clapped his hands, successfully gaining everyone's attention. "For those who have unusual hair color, did you bring evidence as told?"

"Yes!" Some answered, one of them is a girl with orange hair.

"We'll start with the charming girl here." Shinpachi approached her. "Your name is?"

"Sasagawa Kyoko. Class 1-B," she said and gave him a picture.

"Sasagawa? Could you perhaps be Ryohei's younger sister?" asked Nanami.

Kyoko blinked, and her expression immediately brightened up. "You know onii-chan?"

The brunette nodded. "Yes. He's my friend."

"Ryo-kun, huh?" Shinpachi purred as he examined Kyoko's baby picture. "He participated last year! Indeed, he was extreme!"

Afterwards, the people with evidence were allowed to leave. As Kyoko exited the room, she bumped into Tsuna.

"What the hell! How was I supposed to know I was to bring a baby picture of mine!" Gokudera grumbled.

"It's called common sense, you know." The smile on Nanami's face remained intact. It was obvious that she enjoyed teasing the younger student.

From the window of the door, Kyoko and Tsuna could see Gokudera, along with some other students, protest and put up resistance against the two council members.

"Tsuna-kun, did you not tell him?" Kyoko asked.

"I forgot to..." he gulped. I'm sorry, Gokudera-kun!

"There's no need to panic, Gokudera. You still have one way of providing us with evidence," Nanami suggested.

He blinked. "Huh?"

Her smile turned into an evil smirk as she pointed to the door on the right side of the room.

"That's the toilet room. What the hell could I possibly do there?" Gokudera asked impatiently.

Shinpachi grinned and licked his lips—a sight that instantly sent shivers down the freshmen's spines. "That's where we'll be conducting the inspection ❤"

"Huh?" A pause came, before the answer hit him like a truck. Gokudera's face instantly went pale.

Shortly after, a scream and an explosion were heard.


"I did not expect that he really would have silver hair," Nanami muttered in deep thought, her eyebrows were furrowed. "The world is full of things that I am unaware of..."

She walked back to her classroom and was about reach for the door when she heard rushed footsteps. She glanced at her right and, at the corner of her eye, saw Hibari lunge at her. Pretending not to notice until the last second, Nanami swiftly dodged the tonfas, ducked, and swiped a leg, successfully tripping Hibari.

The man grunted and managed to regain his balance. However, Nanami had already entered the classroom. He was about to chase her, but was put to a sudden halt with a hand on his face.

"Article V: Section 3. Entering another classroom during a lecture is considered trespassing."

As if to further mock him, "You shall not pass!" she declared in a ridiculous tone before laughing.

"Senritsu Nanami," Hibari growled, his voice was dripping with pure, murderous intent. "You're a dead meat."

"Can't let you eat me up then," Nanami grinned.

"Carnivore Hibari-kun."
