I'm just sitting here, guiltily, trying to find inspiration to write this more faster.

I'm not sure exactly when will it come out.

But until then, here's an interlude featuring Waiter-san!

... Just kidding, he'll appear at the end of the chapter like he always does. Can't break tradition, now can we? If you were actually looking forward to that, well- maybe next time, guys! You can always skip to him if you really want to.

Anyways, here's the long awaited second part you've all been waiting for!

Summary: Tsuna's family neglects him. His twin abuses him, both verbally and physically away from public's eye. The public itself avoids Tsuna. He would've fallen into depression, had Byakuran and Yuni not decide it would be a fun idea to kick down the Sawada's front door and freeload. ... Wait, what?

Warning: AU, OOC (both intentional and unintentional), some people's ages may be tweaked, un-Beta'd

Pairings: None

Inspired by Triple Layered Sky and Achromatic Sky

The Deceiving Mist, Part Two

"So how was it?"

"It was alright."

"Kufufufu, I will admit that the food was somewhat satisfying..."

Byakuran smiled at the somewhat positive responses. "Great!"

They had just finished eating at the restaurant, the group walking along the side of the street. Byakuran had taken great pleasure in watching the waiter's expression that was torn between exasperation and horror.

It's really fun to watch him squirm~ he thought to himself.

"... Byakuran, you're about to-"

Too late.

Byakuran had walked into a streetlight.

"... Byaku-nii, are you okay?" Yuni piped up, worried.

"Don't worry, Yuni," said Byakuran, smiling despite the fact that his face was throbbing with pain. "Just got distracted, is all."

Yuni stared at him for a few moments before she backed off. "So... Where're we going next?"

"Well," Byakuran shifted his weight onto his right leg, his index finger on his chin in feigned thought. "How about we visit the zoo again, since we're all here?"

QUICK. POST IT BEFORE YOU LOSE INTEREST AGAIN.

Sorry, guys. A good deal of the problem is that I've lost interest in KHR, but another is because I write stories on an iPad and apparently 's Document Manager seems to have a bone to pick with it. I'd try the laptop, but the laptop's broke.

But my interest tends to go on and off for things, so do not lose hope! I plan to finish this, and I will not give up for anything save the account of my death!

But for now... I have an obsession with Magic Kaito.
