I had finally managed to escape from the crazies that I used to be friends with. I must have been out of my mind if I had them for friends. I thought as continue to walk towards the room I was told was mine. I had just made it to the door, when I heard a loud explosion nearby.
My first thought was that we were under attack, at least until I heard the pineapple's strange laughter, curses that you would expect from a sailor, and loud exclamations of 'extreme'. I was irritated that they were destroying the mansion and creating more paperwork.
I don't know when I will go back to my position as Vongola Tenth, but from the horror stories that I had heard, I didn't want to.
Reborn had told me that one time there was so much paperwork in my office that the maid that was bringing me coffee one day got trapped. Apparently, she was found the next day under a large pile of paper, praying to the 'paper god'. I shuddered just thinking about it.
I would have assumed that he was exaggerating if it wasn't for my intuition telling me that he was telling the truth. I shook my head to rid myself of those horrifying thoughts. The explosions that seemed closer now, brought my train of thought back onto the matter at hand. I debated with myself over whether I should go stop them or just go in my room to sleep. I finally sighed and reluctantly started heading towards the fight.
When I arrived there I was slightly shocked to see most of my guardians surrounded by what looked like a world war reenactment, minus the large amounts of blood that was present during the actual war. There was blood, just not nearly as much.
Luckily, they were fighting outside so there wasn't a lot of structural damage. I sighed, looking around at what was once a beautiful garden.
I looked to the place where I instinctively knew the bed of orange roses used to be and felt a flash of anger and sadness. I felt my head begin to hurt and I swayed as a memory came to me.
'I was looking out my office window at the garden with a peaceful smile on my face. It was a beautiful day, but I was locked in my office by the devil spawn since I tried to escape too many times.
I sighed and turned around in order to get back to work. I had just sat down when a loud explosion was heard from outside. I quickly stood up in slight alarm and hurried back to the window.
When I looked outside, I saw two of my guardians fighting with the rest trying to get them to calm down. Although, they were just making it worse. My eyebrow was steadily developing a twitch from irritation, but when I saw Kyoya land on my patch of prized orange roses, it developed into anger. I flung the window open and jumped out after I decided that taking the stairs would take to long.
All of my guardians had noticed me except for the two fools fighting. The others were trying to stay as far away from me as they could. I barely registered the fact that they were still there since I was still focused on the two that were now exchanging blows once again.
When I reached the war zone, I ran towards them and crouched to avoid a hand to the face before sweeping my leg underneath the both of them. They fell with Kyoya on top of Mukuro. It didn't take them long to regain their bearings and try to get up, but before they could, I placed my foot on Kyoya's back and pushed them back down.
They glared at me and opened their mouths, most likely to spew threats and curses, but I beat them to the punch by saying, "You two will be doing my paperwork for the next month." "Herbivore, you can not-" I cut him off before he could finish his retort, "Two months." Mukuro soon started to back talk as well, "Tsunayoshi-kun, I don't thin-" "Three months. Do you want to make it four?" They went silent at that. I nodded and removed my foot before turning around.
I started to walk away, but before I could reenter the mansion, I turned around and said, "You two start tomorrow, and don't even think about trying to get out of it or I really will make it four months." I turned back around and continued walking back towards my office.
When I finally got back, I immediately went to one of the couches and laid down, deciding that a nap wouldn't hurt.'
When the memory and headache faded, I found myself in the infirmary, laying on one of the beds. I tried to sit up, but the sudden bout of dizziness forced me to lay down again.
I felt someone put their hand on my forehead and I sighed in relief. The cold hand felt great against my overheated head. "Don't push yourself too much." It took me a few seconds to realize that Reborn was the one who said that.
I opened my eyes and peered up into his pitch black ones. I opened my mouth and said, "What happened?" He sighed and responded with, "You had just arrived at the fight, when you froze up and pass out." I racked my brain for what might have caused that, when I remember the dream. "I think I might have remembered something." This seemed to startle him, if the slightly widened eyes were anything to by. "What did you remember?" I tried to explain what had happened in the memory as best I could.
By the end, Reborn was smirking in obvious amusement and satisfaction. "That happened about a year before you were captured, and just so you know, you ended up making them do your paperwork for six months, since they kept getting into fights and trying to escape." I snorted and rolled my eyes. I was about to say something when the door was suddenly flung open.
I looked over shocked to see all of my guardians standing in the door way with varying amounts of worry on their faces.
They ran towards my bed and started to bombard me with questions at a million miles a minute. I tried not to feel too overwhelmed, but it wasn't working out the way I wanted.
They were soon shoved out by Reborn who said that I needed rest. I was completely alone in the white room a minute later. I just sighed and settled in to go to sleep.
