AN: We come to the end of the Varia Arc and whilst it came too quickly I didn't want it to basically be a written version of the anime. However I believe I got it where I wanted and I am happy with that. Things are going to slow down a little as I figure out where I'm going to insert our MC into the Future Arc and how to intertwine it with the story. Without further ado enjoy.

I wake up and feel extremely lethargic and muddle headed wondering where I am for a moment, till I catch sight of the dresser with my fedora hanging off the chair and sigh leaning back.... as my mind starts clearing up I start cursing that ass and the old fart over this farce, when I sense 4 presences behind the door and curse under my breath... of course they'd be worried over me passing out.

"Well don't just stand there and come in." (Aloy)

The door opens and reveals my duo, Reborn and Colonnello standing and riding respectively. I try and sit up with limited success at which Mukuro sighs and helps me up, leaning me against the headboard of the bed before sitting on the floor with Chrome. Reborn and Colonnello jump to my side looking something like a cross between anger and concern, I sigh and give them a weak smile knowing I pushed too far last night as I AM feeling it.

"Before you four tear me a new one I'd do it again as it saved lives and I won't apologise for that, so moving on how is the old man Reborn?" (Aloy)

"*Sigh* I wish you'd consider your safety Hime..." (Reborn)

The other three all nod at this before I growl out my response surprising all of them.

"I WILL NOT allow those close to me to get hurt ever, and if I can prevent a death in the bargain I WILL!" (Aloy)

Their eyes widen at that as something has apparently pissed me off last night.

"*sigh* You headstrong fool... Alright then... Nono is stable and recovering well and will be able to go home inside of the week; his guardians have arrived and give you their thanks for what you did." (Reborn)

I sigh and lean back against the headboard closing my eyes whilst the others looked at me confused, ah yes how could I forget about them.... If they had interfered then none of this shit would have happened, I open my eyes and look squarely at them all before looking Reborn in the eye.

"My hands are tied over this matter but it doesn't matter this late in the game, but before I say anymore let me ask you something. Did you not wonder why last night's match happened when we had four rings?" (Aloy)

"I did find it odd yes." (Reborn)

"That's because it was all laid out by Nono and Xanxus, however it went a little too far..." (Aloy)

I break off seeing the looks of shock on everyone's faces I sigh and then Reborn speaks up.

"Do you have any proof of this? As it's a rather serious accusation Hime." (Reborn)

"As a matter of fact I do Reborn. Mammon obscured my visions leading up to this, last night's accusations from Xanxus, The fact that Xanxus was free in secret and the fact Nono's guardians showed up so quickly. The last one is the most telling Reborn as that should tell you they knew precisely where he was, as Dino would have only had notification from Iemetsu during or prior to the match" (Aloy)

"Okay I buy it but that still doesn't explain why?" (Reborn)

"It was supposed to be two fold by my estimation or rather three fold, the first one is basically Xanxus penance for the Cradle Affair, the second and third reasons are basically intertwined and the extreme methods still piss me off. This is a Test for Tsuna and his guardians of their resolve and to force them to grow, also it forces them to acknowledge the ugly side of the world." (Aloy)
