Normal speaking/ Thoughts
"Seek Seek Seek Power that is the Name, Seek Seek Seek Power that is the Game." They Chanted.
A blond haired youth stared past the broken rubble of houses of his precious town, gazing into space. Gazing into emptiness with his eyes that were once sapphire blue but were now a empty pitch black with black tears running down his face. Behind the 18-year old blond young man was his friend Cozart who witness the power that land deep with Giotto that cause mass destruction throughout their beloved town.
Cozart didn't know how he was able to stop him he only hoped that his voice would reached him when "They" came flying toward the town sending everything a blazed and when they themselves came across those people-no those creatures that had destroyed everything, attacked them for someone unknown reason that isn't clear but he knew was just more trouble.
Cozart looked up at the grey coloured sky chuckling at the irony of things that had happen.
Cozart limped toward his friend thinking," To think such a day could turn toward all of this."
5 Hours Ago:
"Giotto, you know that Theatre that opened up today? We should be able to sneak in if we get there early." Cozart said poking his friend's side,who was currently resting in his arm chair behind his huge desk covered in all sorts of papers ranging from file complaints among his allies, marriage proposals, and Mafia groups requesting a pact being made between themselves and the Vongola with the day outside being bright and sunny with the curtains wide open exposing them to sun rays coming in and the small breeze of summer air.
Cozart had been tending to his Family since they are recently new to the whole Mafia getup when he got a call from Giotto asking if he would like to visit and discuss current situations that could improve the Shimon Family alliances with the recent Vongola allies meeting were he could arrange alliances with some of the Mafia Families there. Which Cozart was quite interested in going but Giotto came down with a mass migraine that he decided to just stay and help him out ignoring Giotto's protest while G went to the meeting for Giotto and himself and came back with papers signed for Giotto and Cozart even though G was clearly grumbling about lazy people who couldn't get their own work done for themselves scowling at Cozart time to time.
The body directly in front of him grunted in responds and turning away from the probing finger poking him from the side.
"Oi, Giotto!" Cozart yelled in his ear.
"Gah!" Giotto exclaimed, jumping up and standing in a defensive position in which his chair fell over do to the violent action.
Cozart snickered at his friend's shocked look on his face.
Giotto glared at him and dropped back into his arm chair to sleep again clearly ignoring Cozart's presence. Cozart frowned a bit worried about Giotto's lack of reaction wondering if he was still suffering from the migraine.
"Hey, Giotto what's wrong? You usually have a speech about how I being annoying, could be the death of you or some such." Cozart said with concern and teasing a bit at the same time.
" Sorry but I will scold you later... Don't really feel well right now." Giotto mumbled back, not looking at Cozart with his eyes closed.
"Giotto, I think we should get you to a doctor." Cozart said with a frown that adored his face. "The migraine is probably back again with vengeance." Cozart thought smiling a little
Giotto grunted back.
Cozart signed as he turned from Giotto to the messy desk rummaging through Giotto papers looking for Giotto's private doctor number.
"Giotto, since clearly you are ignoring me I'm going to call up Dr. Lenovo and ask him to look at you." Cozart explained as he throw aside sheets of paper to one pile or other as he organize Giotto's paper as he looked for Giotto's not-so private contact book where the doctor's number was bond to be and where Giotto kept most of his contacts of people that either didn't pose a threat of being hurt or cause problems to Vongola and Primo himself.
"Cozart." Giotto grumbled from his side.
Cozart continued on looking for the contact book and organizing his papers, ignoring his name being called.
"Cozart."
Cozart picked up a marriage proposal contract assigned to Giotto of the Vongola with a photo of a woman. "Wheww." Cozart whistled. "This woman is gorgeous." He thought. "And looking quite fine too." Cozart added as he looked down at the quite voluptuous features that were literally pointing at the camera on purpose.
"Cozart."
He started to hum as he found more photos of beautiful women and putting them aside in one pile that was slowly getting larger. "Damnn, Giotto sure is a ladies man." Cozart thought snickering.
"Cozart."
"Oh is this a coupon to Tony's Pizzo." He thought looking it over. "Yes it is!" Cozart thought happily. He took a quick sneak look at Giotto who was grumbling to himself and quickly turned back around. "Better put this aside..." Cozart thought pocking the pizza coupon in his pocket. "Its not like Giotto needs it."
"Cozart!"
Cozart turned to Giotto and blinked innocently."You Kol'd." Cozart said in a Russian accent. (A/N:Major cookie to anyone who got that reference ^_^)
Giotto glared at Cozart while Cozart smiled a wolfish grin at him.
Giotto signed and turned around in his chair facing Cozart while he prop up his elbows on the desk and placing his chin in his folded hands, regarding at Cozart with a blank look. Cozart lost a bit of his smile from Giotto's blank look.
"Giotto?" Cozart questioned.
Giotto raised his eyebrow.
"...Well? What is it?" Cozart asked impatiently. "Perhaps I angered him more than I thought." He thought sheepishly.
"Cozart...I'm sorry." Giotto said looking at Cozart with a unfazed look, his eyes changing from blue to a hint of black around his irises.
" I- wha- huh." Cozart stumbled over his words, completely perplexed.
He noticed that Giotto's eyes had a hint of black flowing in them but assumed that it was from the open curtain of sun rays shining through playing tricks on his eyes.
Giotto cocked his head to the side as an impish grin came across his face. "What you think I am apologizing for?"
"Uh, I don't know..." Cozart said unsure, eyeing Giotto a bit warily wondering if the migraine was turning his friend insane.
Giotto laughed.
Cozart blinked at him even more perplexed. "What is going on?" Cozart thought confused as his face was set as a frown. He felt that something wasn't right...
Giotto snickered. "I freaked you out didn't I? Giotto said laughing some more. "That was a good tease. You actually thought I was sorry for something." Giotto chuckled as he wiped tears of mirth from his eyes.
"Ah No." Cozart said looking at Giotto with bewildered look." Giotto, you defiantly need to see your doctor if you think that was a joke."
"What it wasn't funny?" Giotto said still smiling a impish grin.
"Obviously not." Cozart replied, rolling his eyes.
' Ah well." Giotto coughed in his hand hiding his embarrassment. "Anyways I don't need to see the doctor." Giotto said sheepishly, running his hand through his blond locks.
Cozart just staring back at him opening his mouth to say something but thought better of it. " I don't want to encourage him to be funny or something." Cozart thought, sweat-dropped. The odd feeling he felt left as soon as it came.
Suddenly as like how their conversation started, the door at Giotto's office started knocking with great importance.
" Enter." Giotto answered with authority ringing in his voice now with no hint of his embarrassment from previously talking with Cozart turning his body toward the door and straightening up to greet the said person knocking at the door.
The door opened to show a young man at the start of his adulthood with reddish hair and a stiff expression with a curved tattoo running down his face, carrying a ruffed looking suitcase but besides the look some with sharp eyes could tell that what ever was in that suitcase is important to the man.
The man that had just enter was G of the Vongola who was Giotto's overprotective childhood friend and right-hand man. (A/N: The storm guardian title hasn't happen because they don't have the rings/flames yet.)
" Was I interrupting some thing Gio-Primo?" G asked looking warily at Cozart."I still won't trust this guy. Even if he is looking after Giotto." G thought suspiciously. G was cautious with anyone that was around his boss as he took his job as right-hand seriously and of course childhood friend.
" Ah, it's nothing G." Giotto said inwardly relieved it was just G not one of his henchmen. He didn't want them to see him in a state of illness.
" So G, what's has happen at the summit of our allies?" Giotto asked getting back in to a serious mode.
G had been at a summit of Vongola's allies who were growing with distress from neighbouring villages, that men and women were disappearing all around and Vongola ordered a issue summit to deal with the misfortune event that is causing people to panic who were in the Vongola's distract. Of course with Giotto's stress like condition couldn't make it and sent G instead to fill in for him.
G walked up to Giotto desk and placed his suitcase on the desk opening it, inside were odd shaped stones that you don't randomly come a upon.
" What are these G?" Giotto questioned looking at them with interest.
" These are what are causing distress all over the distract of our reach, it seems that just a couple of months ago some mine workers stumbled a upon these strange stones, of course they thought it was just harmless stones but the it cause them to be sick of illusions." G reported.
" Illusions?" Giotto asked, looking back at G as he propping his elbows back on his desk again.
G nodded.
" They were going on about flying creatures with no skin faces attacking them demanding the Sky or some thing of such." G said shrugging his shoulders. regardless of what the people at the summit had said, he didn't think this was much a big deal, suspicious-yes but huge deal, no.
Giotto paled at this.
"Giotto is something wrong?" Cozart asked concerned of Giotto's sudden paler complexion. G scowled at Cozart for stealing the words out of his mouth but that annoyance vaporized when he saw Giotto looking paler.
"No...I was just feeling a little tired. Especially finding out what's going on within the Vongola distract." Giotto said waving his hand to dismay Cozart and G who was looking at him intently, of any worry. He inwardly hoped this had nothing to do with his dream... "But that's preposterous dreams can't tell the future." Giotto thought unsure but the seed of doubt was already starting to growing and with that came worry as well.
"Has anyone other than the mine workers having these illusions?" Giotto asked hoping not for the worse.
" As far as we can tell only the mine workers... But that wasn't the only weird thing." G said frowning now at the thought.
" What else is there?"
" The mine workers after being in the hospitals a day later...all of them disappeared with out a trace." G concluded. " Perhaps this could be a big problem." G thought frowning now which wasn't so different from his usual scowl.
" Without a trace? all of them?" Giotto exclaimed, his eyes widening in shock.
" Yea." G said nodding solemnly. "And from the resource I got from our allies that specialize in health care work said that they would probably be all dead due to the state that they were brought in." G said remembering back to the photos that were shown at the summit of the mine workers who were brainless bodies mumbling about nonsense.
Cozart signed as he heard all of this. "Then that leaves only one possibility..." Cozart thought grimly.
" They were "Taking out" weren't they G?"
G looked over to Cozart who was standing a little ways from Giotto's desk and nodded slightly in agreement.
" Probably... but without a trace that's something not to be over looked." Giotto said, knowing that both G and Cozart were right and silently mourning over the lives that were once again lost in the Mafia world for someone else's gain.
G sighed at Giotto expression."Can't I do something neither than worrying him." G thought feeling helpless again which he had been feeling a lot lately with his boss in a stress condition and feeling like he couldn't go and do anything but update him on the status of Vongola and its allies.
All of them stood there in silence for the men that had lost their lives and thinking of the reasons again why they were in this deadly game called Mafia.
" Say G.. Where was this place?" Cozart asked turning to G after the moment of silence.
" What place? The hospital?" G replied raising a eyebrow in confusion.
" No, where the miners found the stones." Cozart said.
G narrowed his eyes suspiciously at Cozart. "Why do you care?" G said rather rudely.
"G!" Giotto scolded.
G flinched at Giotto's scolding tone."Sorry Primo." G said sincerely. Passing his hand through his hair just like Giotto had did only moments ago sheepishly.
Giotto signed. " One, G you can call me Giotto when it's just friends and me and Two, you should be apologizing to Cozart not me". Giotto said pointing his finger at Cozart looking expectantly at G.
"Sorry Cozart." G mumbled to Cozart, noting looking at him.
Cozart just smirked. "Heh it's OK." Then Cozart said seriously. " But where was the stones the miners found?"
"Hmph." Cozart replied avoiding looking at Cozart by looking the other way but complied when he felt Giotto's intended gaze at the side of his face."They were found not too far from here. Just around the mountains or so." G told Cozart. " But I think you shoul-."
"Whoa! What is this G!" Giotto exclaimed in surprisement. (1)
G and Cozart whipped around quickly, trying to detect any danger toward their friend but only saw Giotto behind his desk with a shocked look. " Huh? What is it boss?" G said urgently, walking over to Giotto's side behind the desk and saw what he saw. It was one of the stones but all of them had an unique colour of blue, purple, yellow, green, red, indigo but the one that cause Giotto to exclaim in surprise was the orange one that had burning bright orange flames inside the stone sprawling inside of the stone as if it was trying to get out.
" What the hell?" G said confusing. G reaching out with his hand as an intent to pick the orange stone up in a mindless act but was stopped by Giotto's hand shooting out catching his hand preventing from going any further.
G looked toward his boss to apologize for such a thoughtless act without thinking of any repercussions but was shocked of seeing Giotto's eyes that were now a deep rich orange amber colour.
" Giotto! Your eyes!" Cozart exclaimed looking closer to look at Giotto's eyes as he had rushed over as well when he heard Giotto's exclamation.
Giotto wasn't responding. He was just staring at the orange flaming stone with a peculiar look in his eyes.
" Oi Primo!" G shouted hoping for a responds while his other hand was resting on Giotto's shoulder unconsciously squeezing it with inward panic.
"G I am going to call a doctor!" Cozart said panicking. As he was about to hurry out of office, he was caught by Giotto's hand releasing G's hand as well in the process.
" It's alright." Giotto said hoarsely like he just woke up from deep sleep.
" Giotto. What happen?" Cozart scolded. He was only slightly angry that he had showed panic in a small situation.
" Don't talk to Primo like that!" G said arguing to Cozart.
"G. Clearly it isn't the time to be Bitc-" Cozart shot back at G but was interrupted by Giotto speaking.
"G, Cozart enough." Giotto said weakly but firmly. He tried slowly to get out of his arm chair but his legs were feeling wobbly and almost fell to the floor but was caught by both Cozart and G who were holding him up by his arms.
Both G and Cozart had the decency to look ashamed of themselves for arguing when their friend was obvious not well.
"Cozart I'll go to the secretary downstairs and find and call Dr. Lenovo from there. You can just take Giotto to his room." G said urgently as he let go of Giotto's arm and raced out of the room to heading to the secretary who had most of everyone's information sheets who lived in the Vongola Mansion, that weren't really important.
"Why didn't I think of that?" Cozart thought a bit annoyed with himself for not thinking of just going to the secretary for the number but focus his attention back to Giotto instead who was slumped up against him.
"I'm bringing you to your room Giotto and you WILL be seeing the doctor." Cozart said firmly expectanting a protest from Giotto of being "Just fine" but was answered with Giotto merely grunting to him.
Giotto and Cozart walked out of the office toward Giotto's room. Neither of them notice the orange flaming stone vanishing from the office.
