Author's Note: I need to stop posting drabbles individually but I know that if I make a Diary of Drabbles fic, I'll end up posting entire plot drabbles there instead and as interesting as that may seem, I don't think it's allowed.
I'll save that for tumblr.
There was a time when the Sky feared his Elements.
It's laughable, really, but true. Tsuna had feared the savaging tempest, the calming rain, the protective lightning, the brilliant sun, the free-drifting cloud and even the ever elusive mist—especially the elusive mist.
He feared the Storm because he knew he would be powerless to fight against those savage winds should they ever be turned against him.
He feared the Rain because those calming drops of water could turn into piercing blades of ice at a moment's notice.
He feared the Lightning because it was unpredictable—it could strike anyone at any place and any time.
He feared the Sun because it could cast away his shadows, his doubts, in a blink of an eye—if it could make the Sky's worries vanish, could it make the Sky vanish as well?
He feared the free-drifting cloud because it could make him disappear and no one would be the wiser. No one would doubt that the Sky would return… even if he didn't.
And he especially feared the ever elusive Mist because if anyone could make the Sky lose his way, it was them.
But the best way to conquer fear is trust—trust the Elements to protect and not destroy. Trust them to be what the Sky needs.
And for the first time in his life, the Sky took the leap of faith and trusted.
Owari.
Just something I'm writing before I fall asleep to wait out this freaking wind storm. (Shout out to those on SoCal!)
Thanks for reading~!
