A Simple Daydream
"Wow! Japan sure is interesting!" I said excitedly, looking around me in awe.
"Sure is." Mys said, a little less excited than I was. Mys and I were in Namimori, or at least I think so. I hadn't planned to come to Japan at first, believe me, but I was here on an important mission. Only, something even more exciting would happen. You wouldn't believe all the things I've been through! But I'll explain later, after all, it's peaceful right now, so I can take as much time as I want. I just hope it stays quiet.
"Huh. So what should we do first?" I asked casually. "Find a dumpster, beg for money, or be lazy and walk around first?" Mys made a face, but she didn't respond.
"Walk around it is." I said, taking Mys's silence as an answer. So…. who am I, and why am I even typing this thing?
Well, I'm Jenna Smith, and my twin sister's name is Mys Smith. I know, I know. "Mys" is a tacky name, isn't it? Oh, wait, you mean "YOU HAVE A TWIN SISTER?!" Then, ouch, my ears. Yes. I have a twin sister. And no, it's not cool having a twin sister, because all everyone does is ask all these stupid questions. I mean, isn't it obvious? She's not my doppelganger for goodness sake! I have a nice feeling that I'm not going to die soon. I'd like to keep it that way.
So, my dad's name is Matthew Smith, and my mom's name is Angie Smith. Or was… I should've expected it. I mean, gone for two months! They didn't send a single letter! Or text! Not even a single phone call… I guess that's what happens when you're in the mafia.
Yes. The mafia. As in that place where people make alliances and kill people? That's the stereotypical type of a mafia. The mafia is sometimes like those ones in the movies, but the way they fight? It's waaaay different than just guns and swords! But I'll explain later, it'd be more surprising, you know? As for why I'm typing this, well, Reborn said for me too. Not sure why, as I'll tell the entire world all the secrets of Vongola, Melo, and pretty much what happened when Vongola and Melo collide with enemy forces. But that's all later. For now? Well, it all starts with that fateful encounter…
"Hey." Mys said, nudging me with her arm.
"What?"
"I'm hungry."
"So? Just get a bag from your backpack."
"It's empty."
"WHAT?!"
"We ran out of food on that train…"
I slid off the backpack from my shoulder and scrounged around for some chips. Noting the lack of food in my backpack, I gave her the last bag I had.
"Tch. Wait here. I need to get some more food." I said, sliding the backpack on. "Don't talk to strangers, don't talk to people with candy, and don't let anyone snatch you away, got that?"
"Yeah, yeah. I'm not a little kid, go already!" Mys said, with the air of an almost-teenager. "We made it here, didn't we?"
"Just because you're almost thirteen, doesn't mean you can't still be careful!" I said, turning towards the grocery a few blocks back. "I'll be back really soon!"
I saw Mys roll her eyes and make an irritated sigh. Now I just have to focus on actually getting the food and not being too shy. Ah, right, I've long since gotten rid of it, but the truth to who I really was back then?
I was a shy kid who did nothing but sit quietly in the corner and stare at everyone. The story of my past life. At that point, I had to act my way through several occasions. You know what I did? I adapted, so now I sound like one of those delinquents or yakuza people. I kind of mimicked what they said and built my entire façade with that as my base. I don't think I've ever said a thing to anyone that sounded like me other than Mys.
After standing in line, trying to gather up my courage to talk to the person at the counter, I exited the store, stuffing everything into my backpack. Bread? Check. Cheese? Check. Water bottles? Check. Various bandages to heal the people I beat up? Check. Bags of chips? Check! Walking quickly back, I was just about to walk around the last block and say hi to Mys when I heard their conversation.
"Come on! You're coming with me! I need to take you back to Juudaime!" A really loud, male voice came out of nowhere. Oh shoot! Mys was there? Could it be…?!
"Let go! I'm not going anywhere without my sister!" Mys's voice, defiant, answered furiously. Oh no! I gotta get there! Run, dang it! Faster, faster, faster, faster-!
"Let go of my sister, you jerk!" I said, rounding the corner and jump kicking the guy trying to kidnap my sister.
"Ow!" the guy said, releasing Mys's arm and flying back a few meters. He landed hard on the ground. Ouch, but I am so not sorry for kicking you there! "What the-?!"
I settled into a fighting stance, my legs apart and hands in front, ready to kick and punch.
"Jenna!" Mys said, gratefully.
"Huh? Jenna…?" the guy said, sitting up. I got a better look at him, as he looked up at me.
"You have a twin?!" the gray-haired guy said, shocked. His green eyes looked genuinely shocked, even though he must be connected to the mafia in some way. He did say Juudaime, which means Tenth in Italian.
"Yeah, dummy!" Mys said, jumping in. "Shouldn't you know that?"
"Who are you?" I asked coldly. "You're in the mafia, right?"
"Why should I tell you anything?" the gray-haired guy said, standing up angrily. "You just kicked me!"
"And you just tried to kidnap my sister. I think that's perfectly fair!" I shot back.
He gritted his teeth. "Gokudera Hayato." He finally said reluctantly.
"Jenna Smith." I said curtly. Why did I say my name then? That guy could trace me! But, he did know the Tenth after all. Which means I could use him to find what I was looking for... But first off! "Why are you looking for me?"
Gokudera-san hesitated. "I don't know why," he admitted. "but I need to bring you back to Juudaime."
"Why should we listen to this guy?" Mys asked. "He tried to take me by force!"
"Excuse me one moment." I said to Gokudera-san. I turned both Mys and I around.
"Seriously! Why should we listen to this idiot?" Mys hissed.
"Right now, he's our only connection to the mafia! We can use him to find our parents!" I whispered. Hesitating, I continued.
"And I want to know about these rings!"
I'll try and update really quickly! But who knows what horrors school will bring me? I've got a freaking lab to finish, so I hope this isn't "sayonara" for now!Please Review!
