A play, that's what the world really was. A sick twisted play that involved the harmless, the innocent. Oh he knew that everyone played a role in the little play, for example a greatest Hitman in the world or a no good student that gets his life twisted around by mistake. But he soon realized that it wasn't a mistake, he found out he was dragged into a merciless world of the mafia. The underworld as some say. He knew that ever since that day he has been dangering the people around him. Dangering innocent relatives and loved ones but he was familiar with the consequences, that's why he left.

It's been precisely two months since the boys strings were pulled and left for 'cover,' many were worried and panicked for his strange disappearance. But some thought he left because he was a mere fool and was scared of the underworld. Though he was scared of it he knew to put himself in front of others, even is it meant his life. Now no one knows the real reason he left but some loved ones still pester about what happened. They feared that there love, friend, son- were in great danger and they were right.

/two months earlier/

A teen slept soundly in the soft comforter of the bed, he knew school would start in a later time but he just enjoyed the softness and the warmth of the cloth. The surroundings was per say quiet more then usual, alarming the boy as he shot up from the covers. The only noise he'd heard was the sound of the trees brushing against the wind along with a few birds passing by. The brunette cautiously stood up and stretched, popping the tense yet hardened bones. Uneasiness swept through him as he walked down the narrow stairs, his mind jumbled as he pondered on were his mother and the 'kids' were. His intuition picked up nothing but he still found himself in a tense state of matter. Quickly he got dressed in his school attire and grabbed his satchel, heading for the demonic ground known as school.

'Weird'

He thought curiously as everything around was quiet - despite the animals roaming the neighborhood. He tensed as he felt a familiar yet dangerous presence, quickly he shifted in to a sprint position and advanced forward. Chills ran up his spine as he felt the aura come closer. His mind pooled into mush as he tried to find anybody but it was no avail, the streets were deserted and he was left to fend for himself. He winced and felt himself bump into an invisible barrier, the force pushed him back as he collided with it. His body twitched as he felt a jolt of his intuition alerting him, warning him a bad presence was soon to appear.

He saw a familiar black flame, oh he knew he was in a deep situation where 'he' would show up. In front of him stood an Arcobaleno wearing a clear pacifier, he gulped as he looked at the baby before him.

"Tsuna"

The other started as he walked closer, inspecting the boy that laid on the ground.

"I need your help"

He knew as soon as the other said that he'd be in great danger. Knowing the person in front of him tried to destroy him, per say kill him at the very least- he knew he'd dug himself into a deeper hole. In all his life he'd never been more scared, so defenseless, he knew the other put up some force field of some sort to block the generation of humans from interrupting him. But yet after almost being killed by the baby, he felt something different and that's what made him scared.

"Tsuna, you must know what I'm about to say in the next few minutes, I'm running a tight schedule. For starters The vindice are slowly rotting away, and due to me being the caregiver of the container I poses I cannot increase my power at the moment to relieve them, you must understand my kind are falling and so I need someone else to take over. I can't do jobs anymore since I have to keep watch all the time, it's like being locked away per say but I also need you to know that my power is slowly draining. Due to the defeat of checker face I no longer have any revenge or bitterness towards that putrid man. Though I am still upset of the past time situation my hatred has lessen from the safety of the once arcobaleno. So I will give you the decision, will you like to become one of us or you can turn away from the hazard at hand? You choose"

Silence took over the two, the brunette shivered as he felt his intuition telling him to say yes. He very much knew what would happen to him if he joined the vindice, he'd have to leave his family and friends behind. He knew that if he stayed they see him as something else, deep inside he wanted to run away from the danger to keep everyone safe. The task at hand was dangerous and he was willing to take it, quietly he spoke. The raspiness of his voice lingered.

"Will everyone be okay if I joined you? They won't get involved, right?"

There was a quick pause of silence before the baby hummed in response as seeing the others internal conflict with himself, he knew he was pouring salt into the wound since the young vongola is already responsible for taking care of a important famiglia.

"Yes, they won't get involved and I will make sure of that, but you do realize the consequences and responsibility of being in vindice or do you not?"

The teen nodded numbly as he felt he was being controlled, he felt like something was forcing him to take the job and go into hiding. He wanted to take everything back but he knew it was to late, he wondered how he even managed to stay calm this long without screaming that this was all a nightmare. He felt like another side of him took control and took the responsible approach.

"I understand the situation clearly. Bermuda"

Before he knew it the Arcobaleno stood in front of him and cut his hand through the others flesh. Blood sputtered out the brunettes mouth as he tried to breath but the hand grasped an important organ, his heart. Black flames enveloped the hand and formed around the teen. Bermuda gritted his teeth behind the bandages as he used most of his flames to fill them in the other. After about a portion of flames was injected the baby pulled out his hand, wiping it as blood seeped through his bandages. He glanced at the brunette as he saw the other clutching his heart, black flames enveloped his body as it soon began to heal the torn flesh. A sharp gasp could be heard from the agonizing teen. He wanted the pain to stop, he wanted everything to end. He just wanted the feeling of his heart being squished to stop. And suddenly it did, the pain slowly decreased as the skin and organ started to heal itself, he knew he would be dead if it wasn't for the flame if night. His eyes widened as he wondered about his sky flame, weakly he spoke, his voice wavered.

"W-what about my s-sky-"

"Don't worry, your sky flame is still there but it seemed to have combined the night flame. So you don't have to worry about having hatred to fill it up since your pure sky flame joined with its own wants and needs. Now I must go back to my dimension since I can't be far away from the container to long since it feeds of my flames."

The other opened a portal and was about to head through it before the brunette shouted out.

"W-wait! What do I do now? I mean I know I'm a part of you but where-how-"

"Ask talbot, he has the supplies you need and be ready by tomorrow, I'll have jager come pick you up, I have an assignment for you to do. Also don't mention any of this to anyone, we can't risk the consequences. And if reborn ask to do training, tell them that your under a strict order to not use your flames, tell him it's a warning from an old 'friend.' Farewell tsunayoshi, until- tomorrow."

With those last few words, the clear Arcobaleno stepped through the portal and disappeared. Leaving tsuna in deep thoughts. Glancing around he noticed the barrier gone and saw the townspeople walk along the sidewalk. He knew he'd get yelled at a familiar tutor for skipping school and have a worried Gokudera and yamamoto asking where he's been. Sighing he stood up and dusted himself off, he noticed his vest had a hole where his heart is and the area was surrounded by blood. Oh he knew this couldn't get any worse. After checking his surroundings he headed back home, a place where a lot of fights occur and he knew he wasn't going to hear the end of it from reborn since he'd be pestered with questions as soon as he walked into the damn house.

Running a shaky hand through his hair he grabbed the doorknob and twisted it open.

"You're late, where were you?"

The brunette sighed and took off his shoes at the door he thenwalked pass his tutor. The raven haired teen eyed the hole in the vest and was about to remark about it but when he was about to speak, bianchi pulled him into the kitchen. He grunted as the younger teen pulled at him but didn't complain, 'guess I'd have to force it out of him later.'

Tsuna walked up the staircase and

Dropped his satchel on the floor once he'd entered his room, he pealed off his school attire and grabbed a change of clothes along with towel. Tying the cloth around his waist he headed to the restroom, before he could enter the designated place, he was grabbed and shoved against the wall. He gasped at the sudden attack and looked up to see familiar obsidian colored eyes.

"Tsuna"

The brunette looked down and saw a scar around his heart, his eyes widened as he failed to notice before. Reborn glared at the scar and gazed up at his students eyes.

"What happened"

The young vongola knew by now that the sentence wasn't a question but a statement, mustering up some courage he shoved the older teen off of him. His eyes hardened at his tutor before looking down. He quickly looked up at the hitman and muttered "I can't tell you" before rushing into the restroom and locking the door. He sighed and leaned against the wall, he then remembered he had to call talbot and ask for the items from Bermuda. Quickly he showered and got dressed, once done he peeked his head out the door for any sign of his demonic tutor but he sighed in relive as he didn't see reborn and walked out. He quickly went downstairs and put on his shoes and stepped outside. Running to talbots place.

"U-Uncle talbot" the brunette breathed out as he tried to regain his breath. Running almost 15 blocks was tiring to the youngling, he knew he could of used his hdw(hyper dying will) but couldn't risk the chances of being seen. The (old)man looked up and smiled,

"Ah, welcome young decimo; I figure you're here for your belongings as one of the vindice?"

The japan nodded as he looked at talbot. The man turned around and searched through the piles of mechanics and papers until he found and obsidian colored briefcase that had the label of a 'B.' the other handed the case to the vongola and said that everything was in there along with anchor chains(the medium sized.) tsuna thanked talbot and said his farewell, he headed home while carrying the heavy yet light case with him. Suddenly a portal came into view and saw jager motioning him into the portal. He huffed and walked in, feeling nauseated at first but grew used to the teleportation. Suddenly a loud voice boomed and he caught sight of Bermuda.

"Welcome to the vindice tsunayoshi"
