Chapter 9
Dino
"We're open to suggestions for your method of death." - Fran
You're welcome.
Here's Chapter 9: Dino.
For CC, because they wrote the badass-est review story ever.
It had been about three months after I visited the Giglio Nero Famiglia.
Every single visit, without fail, let me assure you, I attempted to convince Mama to let me go back to the HeadQuarters, claiming that Gamma would need me, who else would play checkers with that poor lonely man? Who else would prevent Nosaru from consuming all the cheesy food items in the entire base and the radius surrounding it? Who would creep on Genkishi from around corners (I'm sure he noticed me, considering how I'm 2 [OFFICIALLY, BITCHES!] and not-ninja at all.)? Who would poke Tazaru repeatedly? Who would get kidnapped every other day- I mean, get lost while playing hide-and-seek and looking for pineapples in the market? Not Mama, for sure.
Then Reborn came along and invited me to go visit the Cavallone Mansion for a day, probably to get me off of Mama's back.
I'm sure that they were secretly conspiring against me, trying to get me to shut the fuck up.
But of course, I agreed, going along with it. For now, at least...MWAHAHA- ahem.
A black car was waiting outside my house.
I smiled at my caretaker. "Irina-san, I'll be back later today."
She nodded, waving at me. "Bye-bye, Yuni-chan! Be careful~"
I hopped into the car, beside Reborn. "Hi, Reborn-ojii-san."
Reborn nodded his head at me, being all badass. "Yuni."
If Reborn was in the backseat with me...who was driving...? "Hello, Yuni-san."
I snapped my head, turning to the front seat. "Hi...?"
A man with glasses, a black moustache and black hair smiled, almost grandfatherly, at us. "I'm Romario. Reborn-san has told Boss and I all about you."
I smiled, almost shyly. "...I'm Yuni."
Reborn smirked. "Let's get going. I want to see the look on Pipsqueak-Dino's face when he meets Yuni."
Romario chuckled. "Hai, hai, Reborn-san."
The Cavallone Mansion was HUGE. I don't know how anyone HADN'T pinned Mafia to this location, because it screamed 'THIS LOCATION HAS SOME ILLEGAL THINGS GOING ON.'. It was a giant, beautiful manor, like the kind you'd see in those British movies, you know? Like slightly smaller than Hogwarts, but not as small as like, a house. So like a lot bigger than a house and smaller than Hogwarts. Like 3/4 inbetween. And it was beautiful, long, tall paned windows, with that colorful glass, with the images of like Virgin Mary and Jesus and all.
But that wasn't the bad part. No, there were men, wearing suits, patrolling the grounds, holding AK-47 rifles.
...yeah, that was the illegal part of the building.
"Yuni." Reborn called. "Stop looking like an idiot and follow me."
I snapped my mouth closed, with a snap. "Sorry."
Reborn rolled his eyes. "You're slower than Pipsqueak-Dino. Now, hurry up."
I winced, but ran after him.
I was gonna meet Dino. Dino, the boss of the Cavallone Famiglia, who would have the most beautiful hair IN THE WORLD (beside Squ-chan's, of course. Long, silky locks of sexiness, you know. And Mukuro-san's. Pineapples are the shit, after all.), and the third strongest Famiglia in the world. Was I nervous? ...a little bit.
But taking into consideration that I back-sassed Superbi Squalo(-chan.) and went up against the rest of the Varia, I think I could handle Dino.
Reborn jabbed a thumb at a ton of stairs. "He ought to be up in his room. Dino! Get your ass down here!"
"R-Reborn-ojii-san!" I protested. "Don't bother him, if he's busy-"
"W-Watch out- AHHHH!" someone yelled, from above the stairs.
I managed to turn around, like 90 degrees, before something- no, someone, crashed into me.
I slammed against the ground, tears pricking my eyes. "Itai...R-Reborn-ojii-san...save...me..."
Reborn kicked the guilty party off of me. "Pipsqueak-Dino, you rapist."
I sniffed. I was only two, after all. "Reborn-ojii-san...I think I'm broken."
Reborn kicked my shins, lightly. I winced. "You're not broken. You still experience pain."
"WHAT KIND OF GAUGING WHETHER I'M BROKEN OR NOT IS INJURING ME?" I shouted.
"R-Reborn..." someone mumbled.
I blinked, turning around.
A giant...pile of a green coat with a fur trimmed coat and blonde hair lay, nearby.
I sweatdropped. "Is...is he alright?"
Reborn waved it off. "If he's not alright, he won't survive in the world of mafia."
"But I don't want to be a mafia boss!" the pile protested, weakly.
"Stand up straight and greet the lady." Reborn commanded. "A good mafioso treats women with care."
The pile sighed and stood, straightening themself. He was quite handsome, decently long, blonde hair, kind eyes and a warm smile. "I'm Dino. Nice to meet you."
I scrunched up my nose. "Reborn-ojii-san...is this Pipsqueak-Dino?"
He was actually...kind of tall.
Reborn grunted. "Yeah. Introduce yourself."
I gave an exasperated sigh. "I'm Yuni. I'd say it was nice to meet you too, but you crushed my spinal cords, so I hate you."
Dino paled. "Y-You're not like...like Reborn, are you?"
I raised an eyebrow. "What the hell do you mean by 'like Reborn'?"
Dino gestured with his hands. "You know...like...spartan baby?"
I exchanged looks with Reborn. Mine of 'WTF', his of 'this boy is an idiot'. "You mean Arcobaleno?"
Dino shrieked, feminine-ly. "You know the name! You're one of them."
I facepalmed. "Dino-nii..." I gave my most innocent look. Ahh, the benefits of being a two-year-old. "I'm not evil. I'm adowable."
Dino eyed me, suspiciously. "Are you sure...?"
I cursed. He wasn't THAT stupid. But then I started doing Toddlers & Tiaras poses, my perfect pageant girl imitation.
The mafia-boss-in-the-making sweatdropped. "What...are you doing?"
I froze in the middle of kissing my hand and waving it to the crowd. I coughed and straightened myself. "Nothing."
"But you were just-"
I shot him a glare. "No-thing."
He squeaked. "Nothing. Got it."
I beamed. "I'm not an Arcobaleno, but it flatters me that you believed I was one."
Dino shrugged, scratching his cheek. "Well, you talk really well for a kid."
My expression turned dark. Dino edged backwards.
"Err...Yuni-chan?"
I froze him in his steps with the darkest, coldest glare known to mankind. "I'm prodigious."
Dino's expression was one of horror. He stuttered, "I-Is it even possible to...speak that well when you're two?"
I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath. "I'm fucking prodigious, bitch, is it that motherfucking hard to get through your goddamn thick skull?!"
Dino shook his head, not even bothering to reply, he was so scared.
I smiled, turning to Romario, all sunshine and flowers. "Romario-san. Can you show me to the kitchen? It's about lunchtime and I'm starving!"
As Romario led Yuni off to the kitchen, Dino turned to Reborn. "She's absolutely crazy. Where did you get her?!"
Reborn's expression was hidden under his fedora as he lifted his gun. "That's my acquaintance's granddaughter. You insult her, you insult me, brat. Got it?"
Dino turned white. "G-Got it."

The sky is bright, blue and endless, a never-ending source of acceptance. People believe that when the night comes, day ends. But the sky doesn't. It adapts, changing light to dark. It's always there. Always present. Always reliable.
Chapter 9 is up. Ahh, so many positive reviews.
Reviews~
GreenDrkness - I think Yuni and Spanner will meet, because it'll contribute to the story. Thanks for the review!
Chanaenae17 - I feel like this was the beginning to the reason why my breadsticks were stolen, lol. Thanks for the review!
xXxMentalPancakesxXx - Ahh, your name is so hard to type in, lol. The last lines are usually something that either comes to me, or a quote from a Character Song. I know what you mean, with the whole Asian mom thing. I swear, my mom keeps empty water bottles just to pitch at me, when I don't shut up. Thanks for the review!
TNM-Writer - That makes a lot of sense, I get where you're coming from. Not Yuni isn't freaking out, I know. But she knew she died. If you died, would you rather just...die or be reborn, and still understand what was going on? She was upset, but not nearly as upset as she'd be if she was just dead. Thanks for your opinion and your review.
TheParadoxicalOtaku - lol, I miss my breadsticks. I loved them! They were the good kind, too! I'm not focusing on either story...I have a schedule on my profile. The other story's chapters are longer, so I'll update that one less. And this one's chapters are shorter, so I'll update this one more. Simple as that, brah. Thanks for the review!
FYP - Ah! Someone who has been here from the start! Thanks for the encouraging words, ahaha, and for the review!
KatoKimeka-chan - If you need a description, PM me, k? Thanks for the work and review!
JackFrost14 - Thanks for the review!
xXGemini13Xx - Ah, that's fine. I love ya anyways, my homie~ Or as my friend would say, home skillet (she's a total crazy-person.). Thanks for the review!
Meli-chan27 - Your English is badass, my friend. I feel so honored that a non-English speaking person would like my story so much when they normally don't read fiction. Thanks for the review!
Ingmina - Ahaha, thanks! This, err, is an update, lol. Thanks for the review!
CC - OMG, YOUR REASON WAS THE FUCKING BOMB. SO THIS CHAPTER, MY FRIEND, WAS FOR YOU. I love you, bro. I love you. That was like the best reason that someone stole my breadsticks, ever. You rock. Fanfiction of me, lol, never thought this day would come. Until I take over KHR...that day is soon upon us! Thanks for the review and story, you made me smile!
MeLikesROFL - I can't write fluff *hangs head*. I'm a fail, lol. OMG, IS NOT YUNI A MARY-SUE?! I don't want her to be... but technically, isn't Yuni a canon character...? lol, I'm not sure. Thanks for the review.
Michiyo - I update a lot. It's like...my flaw. NO, SOME BASTARD FUCKING STOLE MY FUCKING BREADSTICKS. AND THEY SHALL DIE. lol, thanks for the review!
A lot of you gave reasons of why I lost my breadsticks...I didn't actually think anyone would give me any reasons, lol.
But my friend, CC's reason was the best. So this chapter is dedicated to them.
New question...is Not Yuni a Mary-Sue? I'm not sure...
And I'm gonna be putting a poll up on my profile, to who Not Yuni should be paired with. Because, honestly, I have no fucking idea. I was thinking Fran, but then I thought 'That is the crack-est pairing ever.', so I'm gonna have the poll up, after I update this chapter.
So, go to my profile and vote on my poll.
Thanks for all the support, so many reviews, and I'm only on my ninth chapter. Last chapter, alone, got FOURTEEN reviews. Like dafuq?! I love you all! You fucking rock!
Leave a review? My new goal is 15, ahaha. One-up my previous record, lol.
Expect an update this weekend.
