The Marshmallow's Sunny Sky (HIATUS)

Dream part 1: Yuni

DISCLAIMER: I do not own KHR.

The sun shines brightly as white fluffy clouds drifting lazily across the azure sky. Sitting under the shady tree not far from a mansion was a girl with dark teal hair. She was having a fun time making flower crowns while enjoying the soft gentle breeze that blows from time to time. There were also two foxes that accompanied her; one can be seen lying contently on her lap while the other one snuggling beside her.

"Princess, sorry for disturbing but there is a call for you", the blond hair man walks towards her while passing a phone to her.

"Buonasera, Yuni. How's your day today?"

"Buonasera, Uncle Reborn. I'm fine here. So, is something matter? I'm sure you are not calling me just to ask that, Uncle Reborn." Yuni chuckled.

"Well, I just called to tell you that I have found the girl that you saw in your dream. Her name is Sendou Akiko. It seems like she..............."

"Ohh, I see. Thanks for telling me. I might come to visit again soon. Help me to say hi to everyone there, Uncle Reborn. Goodbye." As soon as the call ended, Yuni lets out a sigh.

"Is there something wrong, princess?" asked Gamma. It is rare to see the young don of Giglio Nero family sighed after all.

"It's nothing, Gamma. It is just that Uncle Reborn told me that he has found the girl that appeared in my dream."

"Did you mean the dream that you have about a month ago?"

"Yes. And Uncle Reborn was right. Those white orchids in my dream do represent Byakuran-san. I'm worried about them. If only I can see the dream till the end, I might not be this worried."

"I'm sorry, princess, for waking you up that time. But, I personally think that you shouldn't be worry so much about them. Tsunayoshi and his guardians are there to help. If they can defeat Vendice, they sure can defeat whoever that pull the strings behind that. You should trust them and the Gesso brat. As much as I hate to admit, that Gesso brat is more than capable enough to solve the problem", Gamma said while petting Yuni's head to reassure her that everything will be alright.

"It's ok, Gamma. It is not your fault. You are worry about me that time. I do believe in Tsuna-san and Byakuran-san but I just can't help but worried about them. Ne, let's find some time to visit them soon."

"Ok, princess. But, right now, we should get inside the mansion. It's getting windy here. I don't want you to catch a cold."

____________________________________________________________________

A little girl can be seen playing happily with her family members/friends in the middle of a meadow full of colourful flowers and chirping birds. Standing by the edge of the meadow was Yuni. She didn't know why she was there but somehow, she knew that she was inside a dream considering that she can't feel the wind or the grass on her bare feet.

Sounds of laughter fills the air as the little girl whose face can't be seen clearly by Yuni was playing tag with a boy slightly older than her judging from his height. Yuni can't help but smile at the warm scene in front of her. She idly recalled back the time she spent with her mother. Short but filled with happy moments.

As Yuni continued to watch over the little girl, she gained a sense of foreboding. She tried to look around but she couldn't find anything suspicious that can trigger the feelings of dread that rose within her. Yuni wasn't the only one who felt the sudden change in the atmosphere.

The little girl has stopped playing and was looking around just like Yuni when she felt something bit her. The pain was excruciating that she can't even let out a sound. All she can do was crouching on the grass as she fought with the pain.

Yuni saw something slithering away from the girl before a blinding light enveloped the whole meadow causing her to close her eyes using her hand. A snake?

When she opened her eyes, she was shocked to see that the once picturesque meadow has turned into a lifeless empty ground. All the flowers and grass has been burnt to ashes. Most of the fire has die down but there are still some part of the grounds that are still burning. The atmosphere was suffocating and scorching hot. It was like the whole area has been plunged into he**.

Yuni snapped out from her initial shock when she heard someone wailing. She turned around to see the little girl sitting on the burning ground, bawling her eyes out. A translucent shield was protecting the girl from the surrounding flame. Yuni knew that this was just a dream but she can't help but tried to approach and calm the girl down. It pains her heart to see the girl crying non-stop. As much as she wanted to help, Yuni can't move away from her spot no matter how hard she tried.

Dark clouds began to gather and the rain started to fall no long after that. It was not a heavy rain but it was enough to extinguish the flame that still burn some parts of the ground. The girl has stopped crying but Yuni can see clearly that the girl's mind and heart was broken.

The rain continued to pour lightly as if it was trying to wash away the little girl's pain. From far, sun rays can be seen seeping through the fading clouds. Grasses and flowers began to grow again on the bare ground that was well illuminated by the sun. Just like the environment began to recover to its original state, the girl slowly raises her head and stands up as the shield began to disappear. The fear was still there but Yuni could see that the girl will heal completely eventually.

Soon, the rain stopped and a gentle breeze blew away the rest of the clouds. Carried along with the wind were petals of white orchids. The petals danced around the girl as to reassure her that everything will be alright.

For the first time after the blinding light, Yuni saw the girl smile again. However, it didn't last long. A flock of crows flew out of nowhere and attack the girl. The girl having no other choices began to run away towards the end of the meadow which was unfortunately the edge of a cleft.

She turned around to see a shadow emerged from the flocks of crows aiming to catch her. Just as the shadow about to catch her, something on the girl glowed brightly and the translucent shield appeared again to protect her. Yuni can't really see the source of the glowing due to the flocking crows. But the impact of the clashing between the shadow and the crows with the shield causes the girl to lose her balance and she fell into the cleft. Fortunately, she was caught by a strong pair of arms before she reached the ground.

Yuni woke up from her dream without having a chance to see who caught the girl as she felt someone was calling her.

"Princess, are you okay?" asked Gamma. He was worried when he saw Yuni seems to struggle in her sleep. He was doing his paperworks in his office when Colulu came to him. He honestly thought that something happened to Yuni when Colulu nudged him towards Yuni's room without Widget since he has instructed both of them to guard Yuni when she is asleep in her room.

When he reached her room, he saw Yuni frowning in her sleep so, he assumed that she was having a nightmare and decided to wake her up.

"I'm okay, Gamma. I'm not having a nightmare. It's more like some kind of premonition if I have to say."

"I'm sorry princess for disturbing you."

"No. It's alright. By the way, it's already late at night. You should go to sleep now, Gamma. From what I can see, you have been doing your paperworks up till this hour. Again. Despite I told you to sleep early."

Gamma smiled nervously. He knew that Yuni doesn't like anyone especially him to work till late at night and forgo their sleep. "Err, I go sleep right away, princess. Goodnight." Gamma said while slowly backed away towards the door and leave.

As Gamma leave her room, she recalled back the dream that she has just now. I think I need to talk to Uncle Reborn about this. The emblem on the shield. It was blur but there is no mistake about it. The emblem belongs to the Vongola.

A/N: Just to say throughout the whole dream, Yuni couldn't see the girl's face clearly. You know, like how some anime intentionally didn't show or blur out the face of certain characters during flashbacks etc. Err,I really don't know how to describe this but I hope you get what I meant.

In case you forget, Colulu and Widget are the box animals of Gamma.

Buonasera- Good evening
