Clouds... and Pineapples? 1 by ~gsnks and sai51592
A lot has happened to the 10th Vongola's family. They were thrown 9 years and 10 months into the future and now Tsuna must defeat the Millefore. As if anything could get worse, Reborn has decided to take the Judaime on an important assignment. Without being told the details, Tsuna reluctantly agreed with his home tutor. Only to his surprise the base has already received a new commander to hold his position while he's away. "W-what?!" Tsuna was both shocked and a little frightened at Reborn's proposal. "Yep." the infant like hitman had already lept from his seat at the table and was half way to the door
A lot has happened to the 10th Vongola's family. They were thrown 9 years and 10 months into the future and now Tsuna must defeat the Millefore. As if anything could get worse, Reborn has decided to take the Judaime on an important assignment. Without being told the details, Tsuna reluctantly agreed with his home tutor. Only to his surprise the base has already received a new commander to hold his position while he's away. "W-what?!" Tsuna was both shocked and a little frightened at Reborn's proposal. "Yep." the infant like hitman had already leapt from his seat at the table and was half way to the door. "But Reborn he can't possibly-"
"Of course he can," interjected Reborn, "this won't be his first time in command. Besides with Yamamoto and Gokudera from the past here, he is the only one for the job." Tsuna had seemed to be a little deeper in thought than he was the second before. However the more he thought about it, the more his face turned a pale, almost ghostly white. Though its color came back full force when his arm was practically twisted off as Reborn dragged Tsuna away. On their way out, they had passed the control room. Sitting there alone was Hibari Kyouya. An indifferent expression to his face; the same one he wore when the baby told him that he could do as he pleased as long as he would head the base for awhile.
------------------------------------------
"Judaime? Judaime?" Gokudera frantically ran from room to room calling out for Tsuna. With each turn he became more fearful for his boss' life. He made a quick turn to the right when something came flying into him. Its claws latched deep into his face. "Uni!" In a fit of pain and agitation, Gokudera managed to pry the box animal off. Unfortunately, standing before him was Hibari, seemingly radiating his killing intent. "This is not the first time you have interrupted my sleep. I will not stand for anymore of your undisciplined actions, herbivore." Needless to say that by the end of his sentence, Gokudera was already rounding the corner at the end of the hall; almost as if he was running for his life.
Hibari stood by and waited for a moment, trying to give the storm guardian time to run. Where would the fun be if he bit him to death in a matter of seconds? The cloud guardian calmly began his walk towards the training room, the one he Gokudera was running to.
------------------------------------------
Not too far from the food storage room, a small hairball was skipping down the hallway. Or at least that may have been what it looked like if it weren't for the cow print it was wearing. Not only that but it distinctly had a twisted lollipop stuck to the front of his face. Having candy, Lambo was completely oblivious to the world around him. That's why he missed Gokudera flying past him, screaming for the stupid cow to get the hell out of his way. Lambo continued on his way, in almost a drunken stagger until his path was overly obstructed. Unknowingly, he walked right into it, consequently his giant lollipop tumbled to the ground. Immediately, Lambo lunged towards his precious candy only to have a black clad foot crush it to bits.
"Noooo!!" yelled the guardian of thunder as he fell to his knees in tears. "Lambo's going to kill you!" he pulled out several grenades and looked up to the assailant. However, all the small troublemaker could see was the black figure stride past him without any regards. "How dare you ignore Lambo!" and with that the 'stupid cow' launched the grenades toward the retreating figure. Anyone within the base could have heard the explosions. The smoke cleared while Lambo continued to hyperventilate until he saw the face of a very pissed off Hibari. "I'll bite you to death" came his monotone response. The small trembling kid before him took off in the same direction that Gokudera had run in.
----------------------------------------------
"Uni get off!" Gokudera had finally slowed his pace and even managed to detach his cat from his head. He knew that he should probably get Uni back into its box but, that face it always gave him, he couldn't do it. "Save me octopus-head!" Gokudera whipped around only to get another flying object latched onto his head. He began flailing about yelling curses and names at Lambo, who happened to have a death like grip on him. "Aren't you popular Gokudera." Not much to his surprise, Yamamoto was leisurely walking in their direction, tossing a baseball up to himself. "Shut it you baseball freak!" All the swordsman could do was laugh at Gokudera as he continued to struggle with Lambo. That was until he managed to scare the small kid away.
Having nowhere else to run to, Lambo started towards Yamamoto. By the time he jumped onto the rain guardian, his baseball had already left his hand. Being hit like that, Yamamoto lost concentration for a second. Gokudera stood there watching the ball, as if in slow motion travel past him. Oddly enough though, the ball bounced back rather quickly. He made sure to turn around cautiously, knowing that things really weren't going his way today. First the Judaime had disappeared and then he pissed off Hibari. How could it get any worse, right? That may have been remotely true until he saw Yamamoto's baseball sitting at the feet of none other than Hibari himself. "Shit" cursed Gokudera inwardly as he went to run off again only to come face to face with a wall. "Come on Hibari you should loosen up a little" jokingly stated Yamamoto. A sadistic glint flooded his eyes. "No but I'll be it."
The others looked to him with a questioning glance. However, his intentions were made very clear when he pulled out his tonfa. Seeing Hibari's declaration of war, Yamamoto yanked Gokudera away while scooping up Lambo with his other free arm. "W-what are you doing?!"
"Saving you from Hibari." All three of them darted from one hallway to the next, trying not to get lost nor beaten by Kyouya. They stopped to catch their breath on the far east side of the base. "I think we lost him," heaved Gokudera. "Why aren't you two training?" he and Yamamoto both turned to see Lal Mirch and Ryohei coming their way. "Can't you see it Lal, they're shaping their stamina to the EXTREME!" Looking at the two of them, something seemed to click within Gokudera's head, now that it was freed of attachments. "Hey, Lal, where is the Judaime?" She turned to him with a disappointing glare.
"Didn't Sawada tell you that he was leaving with Reborn for a couple of days? At least Hibari should have told you, he is in charge." Gokudera's eyes went wide with shock at the startling revelation. "But that Hibari is trying to Kill us! KILL US!" He was waving his arms around trying to make sure that she got the point. "Really? I would hold you still but Hibari wouldn't have much fun with that. Come on Ryohei." The storm guardian's jaw dropped in astonishment. All he could do was watch the two walk towards the surveillance room. Only their figures were replaced by one much more threatening to the three guardians. "Psst. Gokudera." He turned to where Yamamoto had been standing to only see an empty space. "Over here." Looking just beyond a nearby door, he saw the baseball nut waving him in. Approaching the room, Gokudera was wary. Unfortunately, he was pulled in and the door was slammed behind him.
----------------------------------------------------
"It's going that bad already?" Tsuna's mood had downcast immediately when Ryohei had called him with an update. It turns out that Gokudera, Yamamoto and Lambo hadn't been seen for hours. Hibari was searching for them but the Judaime was praying that he was not the one to find them. "Maybe you should appoint a second in command, No-Good Tsuna." He looked to his right to see Reborn standing there. "I'll do it to the EXTREME! I could go for a good spar." yelled Ryohei as he began to warm up with a few punches. Tsuna frantically waved his hands, trying to calm down the battle ready sun guardian. Just what he needed, a demolished base when he got back. "Don't worry, Tsuna" the boss turned back to his home tutor "I've already prepared for this situation. Let's go."
This time he pulled the Judaime away by his ear, as he screamed out in pain and started ranting about how good Reborn's plan was in the first place. Tsuna didn't even want to know anymore. The signal dropped out, leaving Ryohei alone in the communication center. At least he thought he was until he heard the clearly distinctive sadistic laugh come from the doorway. Moving slightly, the boxer caught a glimpse of the man and found it unnecessary to fully turn to him. "Your second in command is here-kufufuf-I want to play with Hibari-kun." His stature and had had both grown but his mismatched eyes had remained unchanged.
