A/N: Hi, this is my first fanfic so I'm not exactly the world's greatest author (see what I did there~:3) but I hope you enjoy anyway. I plan on continuing this but I don't want to do it if no one is reading so please review/favorite/follow. In this fic, the arcobaleno are adults because I think it's easier to right that way. I will try to update in a few days, maybe next week, but anyway, enjoy~

'Thoughts'

"Talking"

(Age 4)

Nana was a good parent. She always kept an eye on her son and made sure he was growing up in a safe environment. Taking him to the park was a weekly occurrence for her and her son. Tsuna really enjoyed it, which made Nana happy. But that happiness didn't last long.

During one of their park visits, Nana saw a small group of scary looking men standing by the park gates. They looked dangerous; covered in scars and tattoos. Scared they would hurt her or Tsuna, she decided to leave using another entrance. She picked up Tsuna and started fast-walking in the opposite direction of the men.

"Okaa- san, why are we leaving the park? I was having fun." Nana's fear melted away a bit at the sight of her adorable son's face. "We need to go home early today Tsu-kun. Don't worry we can come back tomorrow." She answered.

When they stepped out of the park, Nana let out a sigh of relief. She thought she could relax now that she was away from the group of dangerous looking men. That was, until Tsuna started screaming. His face looked horrified, and the next thing she knew, a sharp pain hit her lower back. Tsuna had screamed because he saw the assaulter come up from behind. Her legs gave out from the pain. She screamed and held her son as tight as she could. It was obvious to her now that she had been stabbed. Tears fell from her eyes, partially from pain but mostly because she was scared for her and her son's safety.

Her vision was going blurry and she couldn't keep her eyes open for more than a couple seconds. The grip on her son became loose as she fell to her side. The pain in Nana's side seemed like nothing compared to the pain of hearing Tsuna scream and cry. She just wanted to comfort her son and tell him everything was going to be alright. But she knew that is was a lie. She was dying and leaving her precious Tuna fish behind.

Tsuna screamed even louder when a man picked him up and put a brown sack over his head. His kicks and screams got more furious but were in the end, pointless. The last thing Nana saw was Tsuna being abducted. A black car came from around the corner at a dangerous speed and the men threw Tsuna harshly into the car and drove off. It was so frustrating seeing her son being taken away and not being able to do anything about it. The world then became dark and Nana's mind swarmed with thoughts of her son until the very last second. She had now left this cruel world behind, and also her darling boy.

Iemitsu was sitting and having a talk with Nono in the Vongola mansion when a CEDEF employee came into the room with a pained expression on his face. He then, grimly, gave the bad news he had been ordered to deliver. "Your wife Nana has been killed, and your son can't be found. Evidence from where it all took place has been found and confirms that Tsunayoshi was taken by force. I'm so sorry for your loss." The messanger set down a file including more information about the tragedy. And with that he was shooed out of the room by the Ninth. Iemitsu picked up the file and skimmed over the details, his face becoming more shocked and pained with every word. 'Nana had been stabbed and bled to death while Tsuna was nowhere to be found.' Everything hit Iemitsu like a bag of bricks. 'No, none of this was true, it couldn't be true. Not my beloved wife and little tuna fish.' It took a couple of seconds before reality struck him. He would never see his wife and possibly his son ever again. Then a surge of guilt hit him like a truck. 'I should have been there. I never should have left them. This is my entire fault. If I was there for them then none of this would have happened.' Iemitsu wasn't sure he'd be able to live with himself if this was caused my mafia. Him leaving was supposed to keep them safe, not the other way around.

Nono was grief stricken by the news and at the same time, concerned for his friend. He decided then and there that he would do whatever it took to reunite Iemitsu and his son. He could never bring his wife back, but no man should have to lose his wife and son on the same day. Nono's voice broke Iemitsu out of his thoughts. "Iemitsu, I am so sorry, but I promise you that we will find your son and bring him back." His boss's words gave him hope but, he was still devastated and broken-hearted. He needed time to heal, but right now, saving his son was the most important thing on his mind right now. Iemitsu nodded to his boss in agreement; his determination burning in his eyes. He vowed to find him if it was the last thing he did.

"Wh...Where a-am I? Where is okaa-san?"

Tsuna woke up in a dark room that was extremely small. It was the very definition of claustrophobia. He looked around with eyes half lidded; they had drugged him in order to stop his desperate efforts to escape. He looked down and saw his hands chained together. He tried to get up only to realize the ceiling was touching his hair. He moved forward only to be stopped by bars. His eyes adjusted to the dark enough to observe the size of the room. The walls were about as tall and wide as Tsuna's height. (A/N: Tsuna is around 4ft tall) Tsuna jumped when he heard a cough come from his right. The person responsible for the cough noticed Tsuna and spoke. "Were you taken too?"

When the boy asked Tsuna the question, he remembered everything that had happened at the park. Tears instantly began to fall from his face. His mother; where was she? He didn't understand why any of this was happening. A scary man came up behind his mother and stuck a knife in to her body, making her blood go everywhere. She screamed, which was proof that she was in pain, and Tsuna didn't like it. His mother had always kissed his bruises and cuts to make them better, but there had never been this much blood before; he had never screamed out that loud and horribly either. He just wanted it all to stop. He wanted to go home with his mother but instead, he had gotten a bag over his face and then later cuffed at the wrists and locked up in a cage. He looked at his hands only to find blood. Traumatizing images off when his mother was stabbed flashed in his mind. It was horrible to remember it all; the sound, the feeling of dread and being terrified. He then began sobbing uncontrollably.

Tsuna couldn't stop crying. His face was scrunched up in pain as he leaned back onto the wall. He pulled his knees up to his chest for comfort. And then, he felt a hand gently rubbing his back in circular motions. He looked up to find the boy who had asked him a question. The rubbing felt… safe, so he relaxed in to it for comfort.

"It's alright, let it out. I understand; I was taken from my home too."

Tsuna looked up at the boy when he gained control over his sobs. He thanked him and asked his name. "My name is Natsu. I… sort of forgot my last name. What about you, what's your name?" "Tsunayoshi Sawada, but you can call me whatever you want." Natsu smiled and said, "Alright, Tsu-kun it is then." Tsuna had a sad expression for a split second as he thought of something. 'That's what Okaa-san calls me…'

The two talked about how they had been kidnapped; the company each other gave was enjoyable. They quickly became friends, almost forgetting their problems, until they heard loud footsteps approaching them.
