Bribery
Of course, Harry didn't stay down for long.
Her magic lashed out, sending the idiot boy tumbling down, and she stood up, promise of pain in her glowing green eyes.
The tonfa-wielder was as resilient as always, however, shooting right back up with a feral smile of his own.
"Stop!"
A high pitched shriek filled the town, and orange flames burst from the diminutive boy Harry had helped.
Her opponent bristled. "Herbivore…"
Harry crossed her arms. "…Stop?" she asked calmly, smiling a half-smile at the boy glowing orange.
When their eyes met, his expression was quite delightful. "Hieee!"
Harry couldn't help but smirk. "You didn't really think this through, now did you?" Tsuna looked nervously back and forth between both the tonfa-wielder and herself.
Then again… Harry gave Tsuna a once-over, her gaze sweeping him from head to toe. …This boy had not ordered her because he thought he could. She felt no posture from him, or some sort of righteousness.
And he really looked cute, with those soft brown eyes wide with alarm making him look like a puppy. Harry really did have a fondness for cute things. Also the fact that those orange flames- Mammon had said orange was for sky flames, hadn't he? The rarest and most prized- the mark of a leader. Xanxus was one. Maybe the boy had a trait he shared with the Varia head?
She doubted that though.
"But of course. I've been losing interest in him, anyways," she lied insincerely.
Hibari bristled, but something must have gotten through him. He still looked annoyed as he asked, "Your name, carnivore?"
"My name, my name," she mused out loud. "What was it again?"
He narrowed his eyes.
He grasped her and pulled her in his personal space, face inches away from her nose. She smiled apathetically up at him, keeping her temper down realizing that this was the type of man that loved fighting. He itched for a fight and hated her inattention more- it was enough reason to keep hold of her admittedly fiery temper.
She twisted his wrist and they broke apart.
"Hibari Kyoya. Remember it, carnivore."
She tossed her hair and smoothed her clothes with plain inattention, and instead turned to the cute brunet.
He looked nervous.
The back of her neck prickled out in warning.
Harry sighed. He wasn't getting her name. But she supposed his skill alone proved that he was worth remembering. "Hibari. I'll remember."
Once the crazy tonfa-wielder, now dubbed Hibari left, Harry turned to the other two she had… saved.
"Well, hello. My name is Harry Potter." She gave them a winning smile. "You are?"
The brunet smiled awkwardly. "I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi, but you can call me Tsuna." He pointed to the silver haired bomber. "And this is Gokudera Hayato."
The first thing Gokudera did was to pull Tsuna behind him, fluffing up like a guard dog and shooting her rapid questions. "You shouldn't be so close to the Tenth," he growled. "Who are you? What famiglia are you from?"
Harry opened her mouth to reply, but her stomach rebelled.
All eyes zeroed in on her.
"...Are you hungry?" asked Tsuna hesitantly. Harry blushed.
The boy observed her, than spoke. "Well, Mama cooks the best food… Would you like to visit my home? It is time for dinner anyways, and Mama loves company."
"Are you inviting me?" asked Harry curiously.
Tsuna rubbed the back of his neck with a sheepish smile. "I owe you one."
"Tenth! We don't know anything about her! She could be an enemy of the Vongola for all we know!"
Harry ignored Gokudera, and focused her narrowed eyes on Tsuna. "You're trying to even this out with a home-cooked meal?"
"…Yes?"
Home-cooked meals. The food in Hogwarts, the home of her heart, was always excellent, and Molly's had been divine as well- no restaurant could compare to such meals. The Dursleys and Kreacher's cooking did not count.
Harry beamed. "Excellent choice, Sawada Tsunayoshi. It's almost like you know me."
She fell to the side beside him. "Lead the way," she chirped cheerfully.
Tsuna smiled awkwardly, and with rowdy Gokudera and a cheerful Harry in tow, walked home.
IMPORTANT AN: I am so sorry for the long wait, real life has been a pain. And I have bad news... I'm stuck on the plot. Plus I have a desire to rewrite the whole thing- just, I haven't made my decision yet. It's just that I want to write how Mammon and Harry met but I dislike flashbacks... I wanted to give you guys something though, so here it is. Hope you enjoyed. Please Review!
