Dino, Hibari, Sakura, and Fon all ended up on the roof of Namichu. It was already so late but Hibari was still very battle hungry as he spared against the bucking horse. Sakura paid them no mind as she sat next to Fon.
"Ah... I guess I should give this back to you." she said, taking off the watch. Fon chuckled as he took it from her. "Although it was short, I did enjoy teaming up with the two of you." he assured her. She smiled. "Thank you." she commented as she looked over at Hibari.
"Are you still thinking about what I said?" Fon asked her. She nodded. "Yeah. After you left Kyo said that he wants to watch me fight instead of me always watching him. I thought I would get to fight against the Varia in the last round but you two seemed to have all the fun." she giggled. Fon smiled. "I will say your control over your dinosaur is amazing. You made it big enough to protect you two but not big enough to do more damage." he praised her. She smiled.
Although she wasn't wearing her watch it went off anyways stopping Dino and Hibari's fight as they listened to the announcement. "Allow me to explain the details. Good job on completing the second day of the representative battle of the rainbow. I will begin with the second day's battle results." It was checkerface. A halo board showed up from her watch as they saw that both team Yuni and Team Fon had lost. "Oya..." Fon commented.
The screen changed to a picture of the Vindice. Sakura stood up. Her sky glasses began to glow. "Vindice." she muttered. "Wha. Third from the right... riding on the Vindice's shoulder is... a baby with a clear pacifier?" Fon couldn't believe what he was seeing. Dino had come over as well to see. "His name is Bermuda Von Vichtenstein. He is a man who was once the absolute strongest arcobaleno. Furthermore due to a little blunder, now he is under the same curse as you arcobaleno. Taking Skull-kun's watches, he has appeared accompanied by the seven Vindice. He has only one goal..." Checkerface got cut off as Bermuda decided to speak this time. "You understand quite well don't you checkerface. Especially concerning your desire, Bermuda-kun. I am being lenient, after all." Checkerface allowed them all to hear the conversation. "Then I won't hold back. We, as the 8th team, will be participating in the representative battle!" Bermuda announced. "Now everyone, I hope for good fights from all of you." Checkerface finished his announcement.
The watch got quiet. Sakura looked at Dino who turned to Hibari. "I'm sorry Kyoya. I need to go meet up with Tsuna." he looked panicked. Hibari allowed him to leave. "I'll go with you." Fon said, jumping on Dino's shoulder, leaving the couple alone.
Hibari yawned as he approached Sakura. "Ready to go home?" she asked him wondering if he was feeling satisfied after sparring with Dino for a bit. "Yeah. I'm tired. Stay tonight?" he asked her. She giggled. "That was my intention." she assured him. He smiled a bit to himself. He lifted her off the ground with ease. She looked shocked as she held tightly to his shoulders. "Kyoya what are you doing?" He held her tightly. "It's faster this way." he said and used Roll to create spike balls to jump down from the roof.
They landed on the ground and she looked at him. "I could have just used my storm boots." she reminded him as he put her down on the ground. "You used too many flames earlier when you summoned Hibi." he pointed out to her as he linked their fingers. She blushed but chuckled at him. It was adorable to see him so protective of her.
They arrived at his home and got used to their nightly routine before she looked out his window. "What is it?" He asked her, drying his hair from the bath. She looked over at him. "I think I felt the Vindice's flames near Tsuna's house. I hope he's okay." she said looking out the window again. Hibari went over and wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her to him. "As long as they don't come here or tear up my town, I don't care what they choose to do." he said as he kissed her neck.
She glanced back at him. "Still have energy after all the fights tonight?" she asked him. "No. I'm tired but I want to sleep with you." he said. She smiled at him and turned to look up at him. "I'm tired too. Let's go to bed." she said, holding his hands and allowing him to drag her to his bed.
They got comfortable with one another as she rested her head on his chest. His arms held her tightly as they closed their eyes. Sleep came easily and naturally for both of them.
Despite the battle that was to take place at midnight, Yakumo Sakura, Princess of the Yakuza slept soundly in Hibari Kyoya, the Tenth Cloud Guardian's arms.
