Hibari San...I'm sorry...you'll live without me...this is the only way...-Tsunayoshi Sawada
Tsuna coughed blood falling onto the ground, he was barely able to keep standing anymore. But he wouldn't let them find the others, if he was out of the way then they would be left alone. So he just tried to keep his body up, he was not sure what to do now. "Foolish Tenth...you cover for them...and now you will die..." Tsuna looked he couldn't see him, this enemy was fast, the only time he saw it was when he was being knocked against the wall. "I wont' quit! not ever..." He hissed, and used the wall to shove himself up again, he was in pain yes but he wasn't about to let that distract him. He had to fight, keep his friends and family safe, his life meant nothing if he couldn't have them by his side. "Then prepare to die...You cannot run away boy..." The flame on the other male's forehead flared up changing to a blue mixed with red color.
'Let's see how strong the bonds you share really are...' He ran forward, pushing off the ground slamming his hand into Tsuna. He had tried to hit him, but he could feel something holding him back as the smoke cleared. And what he saw was something even he hadn't expected.
~Namimori Middle School~
Kyoya stood in the committee's office, he could see Sawada's little friends running around. What were they doing here, didn't they have some other place to be. Rather then running around, making noise and causing problems at his school. He just tried to ignore them and go back to his work. They were nothing more then annoying nuisances that needed to learn when to make noise and when not to. "Oi!" That loud silver haired boy was talking to Hibari, more like he was glaring at him. The boy needed to learn to calm down or so it seemed. "Should learn to calm down boy...there is no reason for you to be here anyway..." He didn't react to the glare, he just looked at them from where he was, the second floor at that.
"Tenth was coming to see you! now where is he!" Gokudera was not in the mood for Hibari's little game, he knew the tenth was around here somewhere he had to be. That boy was coming here, Sawada wasn't here. The silver haired brat should really think before he started accusing people it would not get him anywhere here. He just had to understand that much less realize it one of these days. "He's not here...now get out of my sight before you annoy me further..." With that he turned away from the window and walked back to the desk, he was in no mood to deal with them. But the fact that Sawada was nowhere to be found, maybe it should have alarmed him. Though at the time it didn't, he was not clueless, and he could take care of himself. 'Don't be a fool Sawada...'
He didn't think of going to look for him, not with those other annoying ones. If he did it would be alone, or with the certain ones he trusted. Until then it was just a wait and watch game, see what they did.
~Gokudera, Yamamoto, and Lawn Head cause for the life of me I can't remember his name~
"Tenth has to be here! We have to find him!" Gokudera punched the wall, not caring that the blood dripped onto the ground. He was annoyed, the boy had been walking to visit Hibari. Said he had something to give him, and then out of the blue he hadn't come back at all. "Calm down we'll find him...Tsuna isn't foolish...he can handle himself...Think back to what he said to you before he left?" He stopped and focused on before the Tenth left, he seemed to be thinking over something. Almost like there was some secret, that he didn't want anyone to know.
~A few hours earlier-flashback mode: Gokudera and the Tenth-~
Tsuna was sitting in his room, a pencil in his mouth he was staring out the window as if he was thinking about something. They were supposed to be working on homework, but he didn't seem to even be paying any attention. "Tenth? We should get started..." Tsuna shook his head and cleared his thoughts looking to Gokudera. "Oh uh yea sorry...just distracted..." He slipped out his book, he hated homework it was boring and he didn't get it. Plus his mind was elsewhere today, with a certain black haired male that was still at the school. "What are you thinking about Tenth?" He was scribbling on the paper, trying to work on a problem on the homework. "Oh it's nothing..."He looked to the bag, and stood up. "I'll be um back...have to give something to Hibari San...!" He raced out of the room, sliding down the rail to the stairs. He landed next to his shoes, Gokudera following close behind.
"Wait Tenth!" He would go with him, but Tsuna just shook his head and smiled. "Take care of the others Gokudera..." And with that he had waved and was running out the door. Maybe he had known something that was going to happen, and hadn't told anyone at all.
~End of Flashback~
Now that he was thinking about it the Tenth had been acting weird, almost like something was up. He had tried to question but he was gone like it was nothing. "He...said Take care of the others...did he know something was going to happen?" Being the Tenth's right hand, they had to find him and fast. He should have noticed that he was worried, or something was wrong. Just a hunch was nothing if he didn't act on it. "Damn this all..." He got up and started to run, if he wasn't here. He was close, that feeling that he was in a fight or something was getting stronger and he didn't like that.
Unknown to them Hibari was following close behind, playing a little game is that what they thought he was doing. No he was focused on seeing if they found Sawada. 'Coming to see me Hah why does that kid even bother...' He cracked his neck and jumped down, to walk a different direction, it wouldn't be that hard to keep an eye on them if he needed to.
"It's like he was here..." Gokudera leaned down and saw the bag Tsuna had been carrying it was torn up, and stained with blood. The bloody footsteps seemed to be leading away from here and then they just vanished. He took off without another word, followed close by the others, he had to move quickly before something really bad happened. 'Tenth we will find you wherever you are...'
~Tsuna and this unknown person~
Tsuna held the person's hand he had caught it, though he could feel his arm being shoved back. He didn't know what was with this kid, what did he want. Why was he doing this, and would the others show up. All he could say was he hoped they never did, none of them getting hurt that was all he wanted was to keep them out of harm's way. "Why are you doing this!" He shuddered, and shook his head slamming the kid away from him, he had to get him out of here. Or he had to get away, this fight was getting complicated, and he could hear someone or something getting closer to him.
"You have no power Tenth...should have known that from the start now die!" The boy held up his hand, the flames surrounding it, as he tossed them at Tsuna. 'He can't use these flames...his body isn't suited to using them...' He looked the boy, and backed up waiting for him. The smoke wasn't clearing, and yet there was something there, something off. Tsuna could hear voices, it was Gokudera, Yamamoto, and a few other faces he couldn't see. His vision blurred, and the flames started to fade. "So the others have shown up but you are too late! Die!" He moved to throw the fire at them, Tsuna cried out forcing his body up. "You will not hurt them!" He blocked it with his flames, only to get tossed into the building where his body fell onto the ground again. This time he didn't get up much less twitch, the others were running towards him. That was all he could see as his vision blurred and went black.
"Sorry...maybe it's for the best...if you just live without me...now...Hibari San..." He was trying to say that, but he couldn't talk, so it was more of a thought as he floated into the black that was the dark. The voices were fading, he didn't know what was happening, there was nothing more he could see, it was over wasn't it.
They fell at Tsuna's side, his body was badly bruised and beaten, the flame had finally faded. He looked around, Gokudera couldn't the person who had done this it was like they were gone till he heard a voice. "Get him stronger...none of you will live if you fight like that...and think he did that for all of you...to keep you safe..." The boy jumped over the roof and was gone, like he had never been there. "Darn we have to chase him!..." Yamamoto grabbed onto his arm, and pulled him down. "Take the Tenth we'll find him...you should stay with him shouldn't you..." He looked to Kyoko's brother who was already running around searching shouting extreme and some other words he couldn't make out.
"Fine..." He wanted to pout but right now it was about the Tenth and getting him back to be taken care of. He had to be careful, moving quickly to bring the Tenth back to the hideout. Here they were not hunting, but with how people seemed to be acting and with what had happened today it wasn't like they could have been too careful. He kicked the door open, the Tenth wasn't even moving, there was just a slight pulse there. "Lay him down here..." A blue haired boy spoke just one small sentence before he started digging around. He was one of the new medics that had shown up here, maybe it was a good time that he had. "Stop pacing and sit down...you aren't helping..." He was cutting Tsuna's clothes off, a bit annoyed by Gokudera.
"Please Meli get him out of here...he's not helping if you want to help the Tenth sit out there and pray..." that was all he said as he pulled gloves on and covered up his mouth. 'This...isn't good...but have to try...' He sighed and started to get to work, he wanted to make sure he was alright.
~outside of the room~
He was walking back and forth, sitting down then standing up again. Gokudera knew something was happening in there but he couldnt' be in there now. 'Come on Tenth...' He thought, hearing the door open behind him, it was Yamamoto and Sasegawa. "Did you find him?" they just shook there heads and sat down near him, they looked exhausted, most of them probably were. Whoever had wanted this done to the Tenth was good at hiding himself and the men that worked with him. "all we can do now is wait..." The door to the room opened, and the blue haired boy walked out his clothes stained in blood, his blue eyes looked tired for the first time since he had been brought here. "He's stable...just barely...only time will tell...if he gets through this do no leave his side..." He sighed and tossed the gloves and he knew he would have to burn his clothes later.
"Now you can explain what happened...no one gets that beaten up just by chance..." He sat down behind the desk waiting for someone to start talking. "There wasn't much to see...someone is targeting us and they started with the tenth...for what reason we still don't know..." He looked to the door where the Tenth was, he could hear the noise of the machines he was connected to that were keeping him alive, or at least monitoring his condition now.
"For now he stays here...and keep your eyes open for things do not let your guard down..."He moved to look at the file, not really paying attention to them now.
~Tsuna's room~
The window to the boy's room was open, a slight breeze flowing into the room, it seemed that the dark room was empty. Till a shadow moved passed the window, sitting there was Hibari Kyoya. "Hm...Sawada..." he didn't move closer to the boy, and just watched him sleep, he stepped closer now. The others were not listening but as he placed the stuff of Tsuna's that was left at the scene, he heard the boy muttering something. "Hibari...san...run..." He might have known he was there, or maybe he didn't but Hibari moved to cover the boy up with the blanket and smirked.
"Kid worries way too much..." With that he was gone as if he had never been there, leaving Tsuna and the others, not that they would ever know he was there. 'A threat to a student...is a threat to the school...' His thoughts were ones of dealing with it, the one that harmed him, a student and his herbivore. No one was allowed to do that, but him.
Author Notes: Well this a bit ooc I will admit that much...I just don't know trying my best maybe...ah well poor Tsuna yada yada. Hibari is going to fight back as always when doesn't he. and um...yea. And apparently fanfiction likes to cut words from my stories and screw up the spacing so yea sorry about that.
