AN: Written for @khrrarepairweek 2018 - Storm Day (Day One).
It’s an odd sight that Bel walks in on, when he’s out strolling at night. Possibly not as weird as it could have been, seeing as he’d taken the Vongola Decimo up on his kind offer and decided to stay the night, after bringing a message in from the Boss. But definitely weird.
The fake-Decimo’s precious Storm brat was digging. In the gardens out back. Well, they were more like a mini-forest at this point, which was either good or bad when you started thinking about security but- Bel wouldn’t have been quite so surprised if he’d seen this happening at the Compound. See, the Compound had plenty of secret body drop sites hidden away through its grounds. And in the actual building, too.
…it probably made sense that the Vongola Estate had its own hideaways for dead bodies, but it was so strange to really think about it. The Boss’ old man did a pretty good job of acting like he was as pure as a baby’s freshly powdered bottom, so it was easy to think that the Estate wasn’t as drenched in blood as the rest of them. The Prince probably shouldn’t let himself be swayed by pretty pictures so easily, but he couldn’t help himself. The Estate had never been Varia Quality - it’s why they had the Varia at all. The cowards.
