Forgetting Has Consequences
Peaceful…Everything was quiet. On days like today, I didn’t mind everything being quiet. I sighed as I laid on top of the school’s roof. I sighed as I enjoyed my time alone. Being a freshmen at 15 isn’t so bad until you had to begin the new Disciplinary Committee at the high school. What made things harder for me was that now I was back in the same school as my soon-to-be boss, Nakamura Tsuyoshi who was 16, a sophomore, and the new Sky Boss of Varia to be.
Like him, I was also in Varia, the Mist Guardian; he and I was going to be the third generation of Varia. We always hung out with each other due to that fact, but we also did because we’ve been friends since childhood. I closed my eyes as the sun bared down on me. Varia, Vongola’s Elite Independent assassination squad. Vongola, one of the biggest Mafioso in the world, headed by Sawada Tsuyoshi, 10th Generation boss, a close friend of my cousin/mother figure Chrome Dokuro, and a friend of mine as well. Still, no matter how much I liked him, he wasn’t fit to run a mafia family. I sighed as I reminded myself not to think about any of them. “Just enjoy the facts that I’m alone for once.”
“So, you and I is your definition of alone?”
“Eh?!” I sat up quickly and turned around to face him.
He smirked at me as I stood up. “Guess not.”
“What are you doing here?! I thought you went out to eat lunch!”
“Finished early. Those girls in the restaurant kept starring at me…”I laughed; Tsuyoshi was good-looking; so, every girl just had to stare at him. “Not funny.”
“It is to me.”
“….” I smiled at him to give him some reassurance that he just has to ignore them. “So, what were you doing here?”
“Well, today’s lunch was quiet so I decided to stay here and relax.”
He smirked at me. “Sure…”
“Hey! What’s that supposed to mean?!”
“You were thinking about that him were you?”
“No I wasn’t.
“You know I could just introduce you if you’re that intrigued…”
“No! Now I have to go and patrol. You can come if you want, but if not, then I’ll meet you at training this afternoon.”
“Fine. I’ll come with you…someone needs to protect the freshman.” He followed me as I patrolled the area. I tried not to keep thinking about what he said to me…
‘You were thinking about him were you?’ I knew who he was, Sawada Shinichi, age 18, senior, and the 11th Generation soon-to-be Vongola Boss.
Of course, I never knew Tsunayoshi-kun had a son until I “meet” him at school. This year though; I don’t see him as much. He’s tall and good-looking, better looking than Tsuyoshi-kun to me. Although, he is a senior so I might as well not bothered, besides he never gets in trouble so I never have an excuse to talk to him normally.
I couldn’t focus on that though…besides, I think his girlfriend is that Daidouji Rin, Rain Guardian, 18, and a senior. I sighed as I put all that stuff away in my mind. Besides, I’ve never truly meet the 11th Generation main family and I don’t plan on ever doing so.
~After School, training area in the small Varia Base in Japan~
I sighed as I put my gloves on and grabbed my trident, getting ready to train. I didn’t need the gloves, but it makes me look cooler wielding my trident. I glanced across the field at Tsuyoshi, who was also preparing himself for battle/training. I sighed as I grabbed my trident and walked towards the middle of the field. Sky vs. Mist, cane vs. trident, box weapon vs. no box weapon, little training vs. years worth of training. When we trained, everything and anything went.
“Ready?” He looked at me with intense eyes, when this time came, nothing mattered.
I nodded my head as I retracted my trident and rushed forward. Our weapons clashed together as we fought hard and deadly. In the midst of the battle, he showed his true purpose for his walking cane. Only I knew that he didn’t need it for actually walking but to make sure his weapon was always by his side. He retracted his cane and spikes appeared on it, making his whole cane be engulfed with Sky Flames. “Finally, you show your true self.” I playfully smiled at him.
“Whatever Misty.” He came at me with that weapon. I dodged easily however and fired back. Everything training was like this…Us fighting. Neither of us caved though, not unless made too.
I jumped kicked his face into the wall while I dodged attacks from his lion box weapon. To counter that, I used one of the cloud hedgehogs that I’ve obtained. Mist wasn’t my only flame. Although, he got right back up, but, instead of attacking he looked at me, “how long?”
I sighed as I checked my golden pocket watch, “little over an hour. Why? Giving up?”
“You wish Spade.” He smirked as he rushed again.
“You know I hate it when you just call me Spade.” I charged towards him, soon the training room was filled with the sounds of our weapons clashing. He, carefully and quickly, kicked my feet from beneath me causing me to fall down. While I was falling, he grabbed my trident and pulled it away from me.
I did a back flip before he could stab me with his cane. Obviously, I landed perfectly back on my feet; however, without a weapon and only my flames. “Now, Miss Nagi Spade what are you going to do? Give up?”
“Yeah right.” Soon, the battle became a hand to hand combat practice. Both of our breathing speed up as we were both getting tired and weary. I jumped back before he could hit me again, “tired yet?”
“No,” he was panting and lying however, “I’ve just begun Spade-san.” He came at me with his weapon again.
“I said to stop calling me that!”
Yet again, our weapons clashed with each other; this time, though, it was more of a clash, breath, clash, breath. We were really tired. “So, what would you do if I didn’t?” He smirked at me forgetting that I knew things about him.
“Call you Nakamura Tsuyoshi.” I stood there a second, thinking over what I said.
“Nakamura…Tsuyoshi…” He looked down at the ground.
I realized what I said; I remembered how much pain that - that last name as caused him, the loss of his parents and grandmother, the regrets and sadness… “Anou…Tsuyoshi-kun I didn’t--” He didn’t give me a chance; while I was down on my guard, he slashed at me with his weapon. “Itai…” I held my left hand over the wound while I used my right hand to wield my trident. I forgot that he hated his last name and had a horrible temper…where he does before he thinks… “Tsuyoshi-kun, pl-please…”
Without saying a word, he kept slashing at me causing me to loose my balance and fall to the floor. My wounds were bleeding badly, forming a puddle of blood. My vision started to go…Training had never been harder than this.
~Namimori Hospital~
I winced a bit in pain…where was I? Slowly I opened my eyes to find myself in a hospital room. “Anou…” I rubbed my eyes and sat up only to fall back down, still dizzy from the blood loss. I looked at my door as it opened to reveal Tsuyoshi. “Tsuyoshi-kun…” I smiled wryly at him.
He quietly walked over and sat by my bed side. I looked at him as he looked at me; I wish I knew what was going on…
“Gomen Nagi-chan…I-I got carried away and.”
“It’s not your fault; it’s partly mine for teasing you in that way. Sometimes it slips my mind…”
He looked at me; his eyes showing a hint of regret. “Gomen…I had to bring you here due to the blood loss and our base being incomplete for that. The rest of your injuries has been taken care of by Sun Flames.”
“Arigato,” I smiled at him; he was so hard to read sometimes.
“Nagi…”
“Don’t worry, I’m a guardian you are the boss. I’ve received punishment for what I did. It’s even.”
“Yeah…I guess your right…”
We checked out of the hospital a few hours afterwards. As I walked back to the school where I left something, I thought to myself about how illusionist lie…When I got to the reception room in the school, I went to my desk and grabbed some things. I then walked over and laid down on the couch. Of course, I lied to him…I was actually hurt and everything wasn’t ok…I knew he had a temper; maybe, I should suggest that he get some help but that temper is also caused by stress from Varia…I sighed. He believed that lie that easily…maybe they were right…he was heartless, but I couldn’t believe that. They didn’t know that cute little kid that I knew… “That I knew…” I closed my eyes and fell asleep in that room, tired and worn out from the long night I had…Maybe things will get better for me…I just have to hope that…
