Wizard among Mafia√

Mafia Land

(Hello everyone!
This was a request I got from one of you readers.
(●'з')♡
You asked for Colonello next so I'm writing what he is up to.

Harry Potter and Katekyoshi Hitman Reborn are not mine. The art is not mine. My respect for the artist who inspire me to write!
"talking"
'thinking'
Enjoy!)

It has been 3 years, since Colonello was the leader of Mafia land. It had been 1 and a half since Lal joined Vongola's CEDEF. She had found her niche among them and ironically her Sky in the young Lion of Vongola. It had tickled him silly that his serious as hell partner got such a goofy idiot for a Sky. But he could not and would not hold it against her especially after everything that happened before. He had felt the betrayal through their bond and damn. Did it bloody hurt or what! Like someone literally ripped his heart and flames out. He tried to reason he should not feel that way, that he never connected with Luce like the others did in the first place, but it was difficult with the constant pain he's flames and body were going through.

He didn't understand why till 2 years after the curse Checkerface visited to check on them, Lal and himself especially. They went to attack the bastard who was the cause of all the misery but found it difficult with their chibified body. They glared at the masked figure with no small amount of hatred.

Flashback:

Checkerface, "Are you done cursed Rain users?"

Colonello, "Shut up bastard! Why are you here?"

Lal, "We ought to kill you for everything you have done to all of us."

Checkerface, "Hmmmm.... I felt a change in one of the elements but wasn't able to check on it till today."

Checkerface was looking at the two pacifiers that hung as a dead weight around their necks. A symbol of the curse. The irony of the situation didn't escape Colonello.

Checkerface, "Oh my! Isn't this fascinating?"

Lal, "The hell are you on about now!"

Checkerface gave Lal a cold laugh, "Isn't it obvious, reject? The Rain pacifier rejected you and chose the student as it's holder."

To say Lal was furious was an understatement. She attacked the harbinger of the curse with renewed vigor. Hearing all the commotion the others found them with Checkerface and attacked the masked figure as well. They all had a bone to pick with him. But unfortunately the slippery bastard escaped them.

Flashback end!

After that incident, Lal had retreated into herself and put her all into training like a zombie going through motions. Colonello despaired he was going to loose her. For a whole year he watched over her while he himself came to grips with his own situation. Then one day the youngest among them and yes Skull was younger than him, came back bright eyed and hopeful. He had first approached Reborn, the scariest and deadliest among them to train him to become stronger. Everyone was shocked by this sudden change of attitude.

'But', Colonello mused, 'That's when everything changed and things started to look up for the better.'

Lal, he could tell was affected by the ferocity the civilian Cloud showed during the training. No matter what Reborn threw at him, the little Cloud got up and fought back and sometimes the Hitman had Lal train him in his place, when he had missions. Colonello knew it helped Lal and sometimes he would join Skull in training and it was like being back in the army again.

'I wonder what caused the change in the kid back then. He had always cringed at the sight of death, even though he never shied away from them.' Colonello thought, 'I'll have to remember to ask him, that is if he doesn't divert the topic again. Reborn taught him diversion tactics well, a little too well perhaps.'

Colonello remembered when Skull had announced his taking over the Carcassa. He was quite shocked but it drove the desire and drive in him to take over Mafia land even stronger. It was a little funny how the Cloud had taken over and at the same time got their respect and loyalty. Colonello just hoped Viper never found out. For all his miser like attitude, Viper was very protective of the young Cloud. There were two reasons for the Mafia land take over though. One, he just wanted to and two, you can get all the information on the underworld through Mafia land, which also meant information on Checkerface.

One of the assistants knocked and entered the office he was in.

Assistant, "Boss! The new equipment for the ride you wanted to install has finally arrived! Should we start to put it up now and dismantle the old one?"

Colonello, "Leave the old one in place, it can still used after doing some maintenance on it. Start working on the new ride on the west field. It's about time Mafia land expanded!"

Assistant, "As you wish boss! Also we have the Visscos familigia and it's newest boss visiting. They wish to meet you."

Colonello smirked, "If they can pass the obstacle course, I'll consider it."

The assistant smirked as well, "Got it boss!"

Despite the crazy take over, most workers in the Mafia land didn't seem to mind the fact that an Arcobaleno was in charge. Colonello wondered if it was the monthly pay or the fact they always got customers who wanted to meet the Arcobaleno that appeased them. He gave a shrug and went back to the paperwork, he had a meeting with Lal later and didn't want to return to a larger paperwork than necessary. Paperwork the bane of any leader, how did Reborn handle this?

(And to be continued.....
