In another mansion not too far from the Vongola mansion, stood a magnificent manor decorated with lots of flowers. There were some 'uninvited visitors' that night, so that means the people residing inside the manor must make a move before they are caught.

Inside a mansion wandering the corridors was a woman no older than thirty years old wearing her nightgown with a thicker jacket wrapped around her petite shoulders. Fearful Blue eyes scanned the corridors carefully before quietly making her way to her decided destination little by little.  

The night sky was bright today, so she had to be careful, for even a small mistake and her shadow could be seen.

She was getting close to it now, a room not that far from her own room. Upon reaching the door she looked around again while opening the door without making a sound.

The room was nice and spacious, windows that showed the pale moonlight were slightly covered by white curtains that looked like it was made from soft material. Colorful stuffed toys were placed neatly on the shelves and some papers with childish drawings on them were hung on the slightly rose-colored walls of the room. This was in fact a mere child's room.

And there, curled up in the layers of blankets and sleeping soundly on the bed was none other than the child. The woman smiled softly before approaching the bed and shaking the little dark green-haired girl lightly.

"Luce'' she whispered to the child "Luce, darling please get up" the child gave a soft moan and opened her eyes. The woman helped her sit up.

Rubbing her eyes, the child now known as Luce yawned and said "mama...? What are you doing up so late--" she was interrupted by the woman saying "shh...Luce, we have to get out of the house, it's dangerous in here right now" Luce got the message and got up from the bed and held her mother's hand tightly. She didn't know why it would be dangerous in her own house but when mama says it was dangerous, she meant it.

Stepping out of Luces room, the woman decided to carry Luce so she'd be safer. After all, nothing else was more important to a mother than her child. Nothing.

When they finally made it outside, it was more dangerous than before, they were now in the same place as the 'uninvited visitors'. The woman did not relax at all, she kept focusing on getting out and not being seen or heard by anyone.

When soundly someone shouted "THERE THEY ARE!" followed by the sounds of gunshots.
