"Y-your kidding, right? This is just some kind of cruel joke, right Reborn?" The nervous brunette said to the fedora wearing baby. Reborn could really expect the young Sawada to believe such a ridiculous mission. Besides, he was still in training for Kami's sake! How would he be able to handle such a mission if it was true?
"I am quite serious. A group of scientist in a rivaling Famiglia managed to gather DNA of you and your friends and used them to create clones. Though, my sources say they are not perfect, but are supposedly stronger then or have different abilities than the original." The Arcobaleno said with a serious expression.
"Why in hell would they do something like that!" The Storm Guardian spoke, not completely sure if this was true or not. "I mean, I understand why they would want to clone the Tenth, but why the baseball idiot and the stupid carnivore?
"Watch it herbivore." Growled the onyx haired male near him, gripping on to his tonfa's tighter as if ready to smack Gokudera. He was pissed with the information he had just received. Not so much the clone of himself part, but the fact that he know knew why and where his jacket had gone a few months ago. He was going to bite every one of those bastards to death when he got a hold of them.
Yamamoto just laughed. "Hahahaha. Really? A clone of me?" He seemed more amused about it then anything.
"I bet fighting myself will make for an EXTREME work out!" The boxer said, grinning. He was excited to meet his doppleganger. It would be great chance to test his strength and see how strong he was.
"Now lets get going." Reborn said, heading toward the door.
"Wha! We are leaving already?" The brunette questioned.
"Of course. Most the clones are still unstable and have not fully developed their abilities. Striking now will give us an advantage and we will be able to take the out before they become too much of a threat."
"B-but..."
Before the brunette could complain further, he suddenly found himself staring at a barrel of a gun that the baby Reborn seemed to pull from nowhere. "O-Okay! Okay, I'm going!" Tsuna said, putting his hands up and backing away slightly.
"I knew you would see it my way~"
|A little later...|
"UGH! God dammit, it smells in here!" Gokudera said, holding his nose with an annoyed expression on his face. They where walking around the underground lab after taking out a few pathetic excuses for guards. He expected a place where people where able to be cloned in would be much more impressive then what this place was. It was a dingy, messy, smelly place that would be better off being a sewer then a lab.
Reborn nodded in agreement, him also having expected something a little more clean and high tech looking. "I suppose it is to be expected. The Celeste Family is rather weak and barely considered rich. The only thing they are known for are their intelligence and even that only gets them so far."
"Che. Still, you think they could afford some air freshers or somethi- OW! What the fuck was that for you stupid carnivore!" Now holding his head with his free hand, he glared at Hibari.
"To make you shut up, herbivore. Your complaining annoyed me." He replied, also covering his nose. The smell seemed to bother the tonfa wielding guardian as well.
"Why you...!"
"Shh! Quiet!" Reborn suddenly said, looking around. He had saw some slip into the dimly lit room from the air vent and into the shadows.
"E-eh! Is some one here?" Tsuna said, looking around. This cause everyone else to put their guard up and look around the room as well.
Takeshi was the first to notice it. In a dark corner, a pair of gleaming eyes appeared. Soon followed by a spark and a familiar flickering that looked like it would belong to a fuse.
"Guys, I think I just found Gokudera's clone..."
