Necklace, a KHR FanFic 2

Hayato unactivated his Sistema C.A.I. and closed his box weapon. He stepped closer to the girl and No doubt! he thought. The girl is still wearing their uniform at Higurashi High like Hayato. Her eyes were green and her hair was brown and it was completely down.

"You are... Serizawa Hikari, right?" he asked.

The girl was surprised. "Eh? How did you know me?"

"I should be asking that question!"

"Answer me first."

Hayato sighed. "Alright. Well... it was just an ordinary day. We just moved here at Higurashi from Namimori and went out to a mall. That's when our boss, Tsuna, accidentally bumped you and he saw your necklace."

He looked at Hikari's neck to see if that necklace is still there. Yes, it's still hanging around her neck.

"Reborn was so anxious if Tsuna really saw the right thing," Hayato continued. "So what he did was he asked my sister to handle it. My sister hostage a magazine office and asked them to find you and put you as a cover for that particular magazine. They handled everything; the money for the talent and the money for the whole staff. They left without a trace."

Hikari was acting childish. "Oh, so that's the cosmetic magazine that suddenly came in my way and said that I was chosen."

"Yes. Have you received a copy already?"

"Not yet. It's cool that I'm a cover girl but I can't believe it is from an illegal work."

"Welcome to the mafia."

There was an awkward silence until Hayato spoke again. "Hey, it's my turn to ask you. How did you know me?"

"Why," Hikari grinned. "You're my classmate!"

Hayato's face was filled with confusion and then suddenly pissed. "Don't joke with me."

"I'm not joking with you! I'm really your classmate, Class 1-1. You even sat beside me!"

"Enough with the classmate thing. Why do you have flames on your forehead and in your both hands? And why have you used Lightning and Rain Flames? Why can you use both of them?"

Hikari's face suddenly became serious. She didn't answer and remained speechless.

Hayato's high temper showed. He pulled Hikari's right hand and he was too stunned to see what he just saw. It looked like a Sky Ring. It's a fusion of the Version I and II of the Sky Ring (fusion of the first ring at the Varia Arc and the second version at the Final Battle of the Future Arc. Imagine the Sky Ring Version II but remove the colours at the side and make it silver. "Vongola Famiglia" is still engraved at the top and bottom part of the blue emblem). He quickly pushed and pinned her on a tree. He was in front of her and he held her hands up so that she couldn't move.

"Who the hell are you?" Hayato's face was about only five inches away from Hikari's face.

"I'm happy that you're a man now," a voice from somewhere spoke. "But you can't do that in a place like this, Hayato."

"What do you mean, Bianchi-san?" another voice said.

A cute baby voice answered the question. "It is done in a room, Yamamoto. But you should be adults if you want to do it."

Hayato and Hikari both looked at where the voices were coming from. Hikari blushed and Hayato unpinned her.

"You are misunderstanding!" Hayato said defensively. "It's not what you think!"

"So you know what we are talking about?" Reborn asked joking.

"Oh!" Takeshi said smiling. "You're the girl from the mall that Tsuna told us!"

"Hello!" Hikari said enthusiastically. "You're Yamamoto Takeshi, right? From Class 1-1, right?"

Takeshi answered in the same way. "Oh, yes! But, wait, how did you know me?"

"Eh...!?" Tsuna yelped. "S-She's the Mafia Girl!"

Hikari turned her attention to Tsuna. "You are Sawada Tsunayoshi from Class 1-2, right?"

"How did you know me...?!" Tsuna was having goosebumps.

From her pocket, Hikari pulled out two hair accessories and fixed her hair. She pulled her hair up as two ponytails at the back of her head. It turned out to be twin-tails.

"Ha!" Hayato exclaimed. "You are my classmate! So you are that Serizawa that I sat beside with!"

"That's what I've been telling you a while ago," Hikari sighed and pouted. "But you won't believe me..."

Reborn stepped forward and talked to Hikari. "How are you related to the Mafia?"

I don't care if you tell other people about you and me, Hikari thought of what his brother just said the other day.

"Mafia?" Hikari asked innocently with a cheerful smile.

"Hey, don't kid with us, Serizawa," Hayato said, pissed off. He grabbed Hikari's right hand again and dragged her towards the others. "Look at her ring!"

The other guardians arrived in time, now together with Lambo, just right on time to see what Hayato wanted them to see.

"Ohhh~!" Lambo shouted obnoxiously. "It looks like Dame-Tsuna's ring!"

The ring that you are talking about is the ring before it is upgraded, Lambo. But he's right. The emblems inside both rings are also identical, Reborn thought. He is still surprised on what he saw.

"Let her go," someone spoke from behind.

The guardians looked at the person who spoke.

"Hibari-san?" Tsuna asked.

"I said let her go," the person known to be Kyoya Hibari said.

"Kufufufufu~" Mukuro laughed. "This is an interesting scene."

"Let her go, Gokudera," Reborn commanded.

Hayato freed Hikari as she stepped towards Kyoya with her head down.

Kyoya stared down on Hikari. "What are you doing here?"

"I-I saw you with the new guys so I followed you," Hikari mumbled.

Reborn again went near Hikari. "So you've heard what we are talking about?"

Hikari nodded. "I-I'm sorry. I should've not come. I'm leaving."

Hayato rushed in front of Hikari as aimed his weapon at her. "You didn't answer our question."

Kyoya on the other hand, aimed at Hayato as well, ready to attack. "Put your weapon down or I'll bite you to death."

Hayato changed his target and now aimed at Kyoya. "Why are you overprotecting her? If she won't tell us, you tell us. Who is she?"

"Hey, hey," Hikari interfered and all looked at her. She turned to Kyoya and said something. "Should I tell them?"

Kyoya sighed then let his guard down. He turned his back around. "Tch. Do what you want."

Kyoya went to a very far place from there just enough to see what is happening but doesn't want to hear any of their conversations.

"What should you tell us, Hikari?" Reborn asked.

"Alright, alright. I don't want any argument so I'll speak," Hikari sighed. "I am Serizawa Hikari and yes, I'm involved inside the Mafia."

All were attentively listening to her. They did not speak for they were waiting for Hikari to speak some more.

"This necklace that you saw," she appended as he grasped her necklace. "This is authentic. It is well-made and it is securely sent to me. I do not belong to any particular organizations like Varia of CEDEF; I am just simply a member of the Vongola Family.

"How am I a member? That man who just left, the strongest guardian of the Vongola, the Cloud Guardian of the Vongola Family known to be Hibari Kyoya... he's my step-brother."

All of them felt a lump in their throats when they heard what Hikari just said. And then there occurred a long awkward silence.

I see. That's why Hibari is overprotecting her a while ago, Reborn thought.

Mukuro suddenly laughed. "I never thought that he'll have a little sister."

"They don't look alike," Ryohei exclaimed.

"Tch," Hayato growled. "That's because they are step siblings, idiot! They are not related by blood!"

"Idiot…?!" Ryohei started to be extreme again.

"Now, now," Takeshi was again in the middle of the two. "Calm down, you two."

Hikari then again spoke. "Wow. So these are the Vongola guardians. You're kinda rowdy here, eh?"

Reborn chuckled. "Meet the Guardians of the 10th Vongola Family."

"They look more lively in person than on stories."

"What do you mean?"

"I heard all of you from my brother. You must be Reborn, one of the Legendary Arcobaleno Babies. You hold the Sun Pacifier, right? And it is said that you are the Strongest Arcobaleno Member."

"Ciaossu."

"The boss of this family is that brown-haired guy: Sawada Tsunayoshi," Hikari pointed at Tsuna.

By the time Hikari spoke about the guardians, they attentively listened to her. "My brother said the Tsuna-kun is quite strong when in Hyper Dying Will Mode."

"Of course!" Hayato exclaimed. "Juudaime is the best!"

Hikari smiled. "Then he's Gokudera Hayato. The Storm Guardian of the 10th Vongola Family and the… right-hand man of the boss?"

"Yes," Hayato replied. "I'm glad Hibari recognizes me as the right-hand man."

"Not quite, Gokudera-kun," Hikari said. "He said that it is self-proclaimed."

Hayato was pissed. "What---?!"

Hikari ignored Hayato. "The Rain Guardian of the 10th Vongola Family: Yamamoto Takeshi."

"Hi!" Takeshi smiled calmly.

Hikari grinned. "Well, calm as always. Then… the Lightning Guardian: Lambo?"

They looked at Lambo who was busy picking his nose obnoxiously. He was carried by Chrome.

"Wow, he's a kid," Hikari said. "How did he become a guardian?"

Reborn chuckled. "Who knows?"

"I heard that his family, the Bovino Family, made the ten-year bazooka," Hikari said.

Tsuna nodded. "Yes. That's the reason why we made it to the future ten years later."

"Oh," Hikari said awed. "Then, the Sun Guardian: Sasagawa Ryohei, who is extreme all the time."

Ryohei was fired up. "Of course! Being extreme is my motto for life! EXTREMEEEEEE!"

The rest ignored him. They let him become extreme. They've become used to it.

Hikari shrugged. "You have two Mist Guardians?"

Then everybody looked at Chrome and Mukuro.

"Hmm," Hikari said. "My brother told me that Chrome is a tool of Mukuro so that he could still exist in this world."

A tool? That's very straight-forward! I hope Chrome won't get upset by what Hikari said, Tsuna thought.

"Kufufufu~" Mukuro laughed. "Your brother does hold a grudge, eh, Hikari?"

"Are you an illusion?" Hikari asked.

"No, Hikari," Reborn answered. "Mukuro has been released from Vindice."

Hikari smiled enthusiastically. "Oh, my brother would be happy to fight you now, Mukuro-san, now that you don't have any limits."

Mukuro chuckled. "Tell him I'm ready when he is."

"I will," Hikari grinned. Then she had a glance at Bianchi. "Oh~ You're Bianchi, right? Also known as the Poison Scorpion!"

Bianchi smiled. "I'm getting really famous nowadays."

"Well, now that we've already settled who Hikari really is, why don't we all go home?" Reborn proposed. "And besides, she already spoke too much."

The other guardians smiled and nodded as they agreed. But Hayato went in front of Hikari as soon as she advanced.

"No," he said. "You haven't spoke enough, Serizawa Hikari."

"Oi," Takeshi mediated. "Enough, Gokudera. She already said too much."

Hayato ignored Takeshi. "Serizawa, you still need to tell us about your ring."
