Varia's Chained Cloud (Nanbaka x OC x KHR)

Freedom - Epilogue

A week later...

Akiri sat in her office inside the castle, Varia's base in Italy. Idly sitting by since there were no missions (and because she was given a break after her months long prison mission), she worked on her long overdue paperwork.

Ring... Ring...

Her pen stopped and she looked over to her side to see her phone ringing against her desk. A small smile graced her face as she saw the number of the person(s) who was calling.

Putting her pen down, she picked up her phone, angling it so they could see her face during the video call.

"Hello."

"Hibari/Hibari-chan/Aki-chan!" four voices shouted at once and she let out an amused huff.

"Jyugo, Uno, Rock, Nico," she greeted. "It's been a while."

"I know right!" Uno pouted. "It sucks that Hajime will only let us call you three days a week!"

Rock nodded in agreement. "There's just too much to tell you in such little time. An hour a day is not enough."

"Yeah yeah!" Nico nodded his head furiously. "But anyways Aki-chan! Today Hajime-chan and Samon-chan switched places!"

"Oh?" She raised a brow. "Let me guess, an escaping bet."

The four mischievously grinned like cats.

"We won," Jyugo said smugly. "That guy didn't even stand a chance against the best prisoner breakers."

"It would have been more fun if you were here too," Uno added, sighing as he put his hands on his hips. "What's going on in Italy?"

"Not much," Akiri replied, spinning her chair so they could see the view in the background. "There's a party tonight for Vongola and Varia is being forced to come."

"A party?!" Nico had sparkles in his eyes. "I bet it's just like those animes where a fight is going to break out between mafia bosses and then they'll ***** and ********* just like in *******!" The three blurted out his words.

Akiri looked amused. "I assure you that won't happen. In the past it did though."

"Really?!"

"Wow! Japanese mafia!"

"The mafia is crazy!"

Jyugo sweatdropped. "It's a mix of Italian and Japanese though?"

"Man, I want to go to Italy and see you!" Rock exclaimed before drooling. "Just imagine all the food made by 5 star chefs..."

"All you think about is food all the time Rock," Uno laughed, slapping his back.

"Oi you four!" She heard Hajime shout. "Did you seriously break into this room?! You still have to wait another day to call #0!"

"Geh!" "RUN!" "Come on!"

The three went out of view, just leaving Akiri and Jyugo.

"Jyugo," Akiri said, making the ravenhead teen stop and look at her. "How's everything over there?"

"It's okay." Jyugo smiled. "Everyone is acting the same as normal like nothing ever happened." He looked down at his palm. "But knowing that Elf exists inside of me... I want to talk to Enki-san and Noriko-san about him and this power more."

"..." Akiri silently stared at him. "Jyugo. I'll be searching for the man with the scar, Elf, and any others involved with them from the outside. If I find them, I'll tell you." She smirked and he looked at her in surprise. "When I did, I hope you can steel yourself to break out of Nanbaka with Musashi. You both deserve to get your revenge."
