One Bizarre Vacation

Stepping out of the train coming from Namimori to their holiday location, Lucia smiled, tugging at the ribbons tied on her neck to support her sun hat from falling off, which replaced her usual mushroom-shaped hat, and with silent footfalls following behind her, she stepped into the sunlight from the shadow of Morioh Station. And beamed.

"Wow! We're finally here! I didn't expect Morioh to be so beautiful!" The Sky among their group of eight exclaimed, doing a full 360 and clutching at her luggage in excitement, which would have killed someone with how tight she was holding it. As their boss twirled around in fascination, the rest of her entourage followed behind her, the dark atmosphere around them scaring off no few locals. The group, a peculiar mass of people with unique occupations according to dress code, looked far out of place in a quaint town like Morioh. Well maybe with the exception of Reborn who looked like an impeccably dressed businessman with a dangerous glint to his eyes and maybe Fon. Even Verde could pass off as a normal scientist. If he was one.

The Arcobaleno, called the Strongest Seven even though there were eight members in their little group. You can blame Colonello for the additional number. The blonde had joined on a whim when he was introduced to the group by Lal Mirch after they were established as a seven-person group. The others eventually got used to his presence-Reborn begrudgingly did so, and they didn't bother to correct the people of the underworld, so they remained as the Strongest Seven. No one minded the little detail. Currently, it was the year 1999, the soon-to-be Vongola Decimo was one brunette named Sawada Tsunayoshi, the bearer of the Vongola rings, while the Mare ring holder, the boss of the Millefiore Famiglia, Byakuran. As you can tell, the Sky Pacifier was handed to our lovely protagonist, Lucia, the sister of Aria and aunt to Yuni, who was currently in Italy as the newly appointed tenth donna of the Giglio Nero Famiglia. Aria had stepped down last December, handing the throne to her teenage daughter. The poor girl was probably buried under documents and paperwork, she. The Sky Arcobaleno could relate to that, especially with such destructive Elements whocantgoadaywithoutbreakingsomething. It was unfortunate that her dear niece was unable to come with, but she would bring her on a vacation the next time they met, even if she had to drag her from her office. 

Skull trudged with heavy steps down the stairs to the plaza, half sliding down the railing to keep up with his fellow Elements, the rest looking no better than him. Except-again, the sole exception of everything- Reborn, who looked like he got a full eight hours of sleep when they were sure he didn't. Neither did they, to be honest. For some reason, their ever so loving Sky decided that a vacation to Japan was in order and had them pack their luggage before departing in five minutes. In the middle of the night. Somehow, Reborn-that crazy psycho-actually got a whole suitcase in in five minutes and was already waiting at the lobby of their mansion with Lucia by the time they managed to pack a decent amount of clothes and personal belongings in a small knapsack. Skull ended up using a potato sack he conveniently found at the foot of his bed as a bag. Curse that trigger-happy hitman. He must have somehow known that their sky would pull a vacation card on them.

After two days of travelling, they finally made it to Japan, and consequently, Namimori. The Strongest Seven visited the house of the future Vongola Decimo, and as Fon was about to book a hotel room, their Sky yet again pulled a UNO reverse card on them and dragged them to Tokyo Station after a car ride of 30 minutes and boarded a train heading to Sendai. After two hours of seating in an excruciatingly cramp metal box, they finally arrived at their destination. Bless Japan and its smooth train rides. At least they didn't have to suffer through cramped AND bumpy rides. After the vacation was over, Reborn would have a word with the driver that drove them to Tokyo Station. Maybe with the assistance of a few bullets. Hmmm......
