It was a beautiful day when it happened.

I mean, the sun was shining, the birds were chirping happily, the clouds were lazily drifting in the sky, it was all in all perfect! It makes me crave for my all-time favourite pancakes covered in maple syrup!

But, as we all know, life is a b*tch, trying to take away our happiness in this world.

And, ironically, everything started out because of pancakes. I'm even starting to resent pancakes after that. A little. Who am I kidding, pancakes are the best! No one can hate that!

*ahem* Anyway, as I was saying, I was sitting in one of my favourite corner in the most famous café that makes great pancakes, when a man with silver hair and piercings on his ears followed by a ravenet with... something strapped to him entered the café.

The ravenet said something at the cashier before he and his companion went to take a seat, which was coincidently situated behind me.

At first, I didn't even care what they say, until they mentioned a name.

Vongola.

My curiousity when sky high that instant when they said that word. I wanted to know more but sadly, it seems their order is done.

Taking those takeaway pancakes, they quickly stood up and walked out of the café.

Instead of doing what any sane human being would do, I stuffed the rest of my pancakes in my mouth, left a few money for the bill before darting out of the café like a madman.

Looking around, I saw where those two were and quickly followed them. No, I am not stalking okay!

I stealthily followed them from behind, my heart pounding in excitement while my guts... well, let's just say it doesn't agree with my heart.

When they went into an alley, I stupidly went in, only to be hit in the neck, passing me out.

When I regained my consciousness, I found myself sitting in a chair, bound by ropes, in what looks like to be an abandoned storehouse.

Two voices could be heard, whispering, or they tried to whisper.

"Should we really be doing this?"

"Shut up, Jyuudaime's too busy to handle such trivial things like this."

"But do we have to do this?"

"Well, do you have any other ideas?"

"I can hear you, you know?" I interrupted.

The silveret only 'tch'ed while the ravenet just laughed.

"Oi, woman."

"I have a name, dumbass."

"Whatever. Why were you following us?"

"You, storm guardian, had said Vongola back in the café. I was curious."

Both males tensed up when I said 'storm guardian'.

"What do you know about Vongola?" questioned the silveret.

"That it's a mafia group, led by a young japanese man. They say he's ruining Vongola-"

"Why you-!"

"-but honestly? I think he's fixing it back."

"Huh?"

The silveret blinked at me. "What did you just say?"

"Are you deaf, storm guardian? I said, that man, Sawada Tsunayoshi, is fixing Vongola."

Both males look at each other before looking back at me.

"Oi, since you know about Vongola and us, you have no choice but to join us, else-"

"Or else what?"

"You won't get these cookies," the ravenet said with a smile while showing a basket full cookies.

I only raise an eyebrow at that.

"Cookies? You're bribing me with cookies? I mean, they're good, but not that good." I said.

"No, we're bribing you with the antidote. You have three days until the poison kills you. Think about it," explained the silveret.

My eyes widened at that. "Woah woah, woah! Back up! You poisoned me?! Who said you could poison me!? My dad?! And seriously?! You put the antidotes in cookies?! How old are you? Ten?!"

"Haha, well, it's not our idea."

"It's that stupid cow's idea."

I only stared at them in disbelief. Shaking my head, I let out a sigh.

"Fine, I'll join you." I told them.

"Really? That easily?" the silveret looked at me with a questioning look.

"Well, it's not like I have any Family. Besides, I am curious about the Vongola. Now, let me out and give me those cookies."

The silveret complied and let me out of the ropes. The ravenet then handed me the basket. I gladly took it and took a bite on a cookie.

"Macademia with no nuts? Nice. It taste good," I complimented.

"Hey, what's your name?"

"Rina. Rina Orthello. Nice to meet'cha!"
