One Phone call
Out of the many times Namimori property was destroyed by us, today we just had to get caught. "Sir, please! Can I please have one more phone call?" Tsuna pleads, hoping that the man in front of him would answer his request.
The man turns around slightly, a little pissed off,"Sorry kid, the policy around here is one call per person."
"Come on! Please! My parents weren't home at the time!" Tsuna begs desperately grabbing the handle bars of the mini prison.
"One call per person, I said it the first time, don't make me say it again," The head chief sighs heavily, he's been in these kinds of situations before and tonight he is not feeling up to fighting with the kid. So he fully faces the boy, while pointing his index finger at the boy and says, "You'll just have to wait another hour before you get another phone call."
"Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!" How scary!
The man grunts at Tsuna's pathetic screech and goes back to his desk.
Damn it, Reborn! Why did you of all people pick up the phone? Tsuna thinks, rubbing his hair with both of his hands frustratingly.
Walking through the police headquarters doors is another officer holding Gokudera firmly by his arm. "Here's the other kid who participated in the arson," the officer shoves the boy into his chief, "there's three more troublemakers coming in."
The chief in his swivel chair spins to the other officer, "Three kids?"
"Yep."
"So five kids?" he says to himself, "Five kids?" the chief says astonishingly, "are you sure that only five kids set that entire forest on fire?" the chief questions.
"I believe so, sir. They were the only five found there," his subordinate answers back.
"Five kids?" He can't believe it; he shows the number of five on his right hand to the officer, "are you sure it was just five kids?"
His subordinate nods,"I know that this is hard to believe sir, but they were the only ones found there."
"Good golly, There's just no way that these five middle school boys caused such havoc! It's just unbelievable!"
Tsuna ponders for a second, confused. Five kids, I thought there were only Gokudera, Yamamoto, Nii-san, and I stopping Verde's new invention in the forest. Who was the other kid?
"Well, it's the truth sir; the only thing that I can't believe is that these boys had nothing else to do," he snorts in Tsuna's direction, "what these boys did was pathetic and I think that they-" The authority figure gets interrupted when a hand grabs him by the collar of his shirt.
"How dare you snort in Juudaime's direction? He's a respectable boss that can kick your-" Hearing the pugnacious, white-haired teen was enough to get the other offers riled up to intervene the short-tempered boy's outburst by, of course, tackling him to the floor. "Get off of me or I'll blow your brains out!" Gokudera screams, trying to reach the dynamite in his front pocket.
"Maa maa, Gokudera we have to respect the police. We're already in trouble, besides, I don't think Tsuna would appreciate us fighting them." Yamamoto interferes jokingly, placing his hand on the nape of his neck.
"Don't get familiar with Juudaime!" Gokudera snaps, desperately trying to look fearsome under the copious amount of authority figures stacked on top of him, "and don't touch me you baseball freak!" he yells, at first struggling, to slap the taller boy's hand from him. "Make yourself useful and help me out of this pile!"
Another officer comes in dragging another person into the office.
From behind the officer the person yells, "Oi! Calm down octopus head! We're in the police-"
Gokudera recognizes the voice, "Don't call me octopus head Turftop!"
"Excuse me," Ryohei walks in front of the officer, "I'm not Turftop octopus head, you need to cool your head to the extreme!"
"You-" Gokudera glares menacingly.
"Senpai, Gokudera, we've been taken into custody we should behave." Yamamoto says, trying to quell the situation.
"Shaddup baseball idiot and help me out of this!" The smaller boy, still struggling under the stack of officers, shouts to Yamamoto.
"No, leave him there the octopus head deserves that to the extreme!" Ryohei yells to Yamamoto.
Tsuna watching the events unfold, in utter embarrassment tries to help the star baseball player out. "Nii-san, Gokudera you guys should stop fighting," the brunette words nervously, "we can probably get out of this situation if we all just stop fighting and use our one phone call to get home," Tsuna states, emphasizing 'stop fighting.'
Not happy with the way his entire work place is falling apart, the head chief of police slams his hands on the desk, "Hey, this is police headquarters! You boys are already in a hell lot of trouble, you guys better start behaving or we'll make you!" the chief jabs his index finger at the boy on the ground, "Get that boy up and into the cell with other kid!" he then points to Yamamoto and Ryohei with his thumb prods it at the cell Tsuna is in, "take the other two in with him!" he snarls, starting to believe that these boys being taken in did cause that fire, "give those three boys their one phone call and get back to work." The chief commands, trying to recompose himself as the respectable hard worker that he is.
"Got it chief!" All the policemen in the building say in unison and does what the man commands.
The officer that brought Gokudera in earlier quickly leads the three boys into the cell with Tsuna and lock them in there, "If you didn't hear from the chief earlier, you each have one call" he warns the three of them; Ryohei raises his hand, "if no one picks up the call then you'll hafta wait another hour before you get another call," he says bleakly, watching Ryohei slowly put his hand down. "Use your call carefully; unlike your friend over there," the man says nudging his head towards Tsuna and walks to a nearby desk. "I'm watching you; like a bird to a worm, like a lion to a deer, like a shark to a fish, like a snake to a rat, like a-"
"Yeah, yeah, shaddup we get it already. You're watching us." Gokudera snaps irritably and grabs the phone first.
The man clad in blue glares at him and grabs his chair to sit in, but fails miserably and falls on the floor. Trying to grab the edge of the desk to get back up, he falls back down with a few of his papers and books on top of him. A bunch of his co-workers rush to his aid while the chief-of-police pinches the bridge of his nose and sighs.
Gokudera, having the phone first, turns to Tsuna and asks him if he wants to have his one phone call.
"No, its fine Gokudera; it's your phone call. Besides, my parents are out tonight and Reborn refuses to come pick me up. He says, 'that it's a boss' duty to accept responsibility.'" Tsuna quotes with his fingers.
"Are you sure, Juudaime?" he says solemnly, shaking the phone in his face.
"Yea, I'm fine Gokudera," he says reassuringly, "really, I'm fine. You need to call Bianci and hope that she picks up to get the four of us."
Hearing the mafia boss say that made the bomber happy, "You got it Juudaime! I will get sis to get us outta here! I will not fail you Juudaime!" Punching the numbers as fast as he could Gokudera puts the phone to his ear and waits eagerly for his sister. After a few rings the phone picks up, "Yo sis, we need help. We're-"
"Sorry, can't help now; running from Shammal!" The half-sister says quickly.
"Wait! Juudaime and we are-"
"Bianci~" Gokudera hears Shammal from the background.
"Get away from me!" Bianci shouts to Shammal, "I have to go, he's catching up."
"Wait! Wai-!" The phone goes dead and Gokudera pales, feeling guilty that he failed his boss. Gokudera turns to Tsuna and into the dogeza position he pleads, "I'm sorry Juudaime, I failed you terribly!"
"No, it's ok Gokudera, we just have to wait an hour; besides, we still have Yamamoto and Nii-san." Tsunawaves his hands frantically and is thoroughly embarrassed.
"Yea, Gokudera leave it to us!" Yamamoto cheers.
"We have this octopus head!" Ryohei jumps.
"Yea, whatever," Gokudera grumbles out, "Now I hafta leave it to Baseball idiot and Turftop to save the day." He scowls at the situation.
Yamamoto walks toward the phone and picks it up, turning to Ryohei he asks, "Do you want to use it first?"
"Naw, I'll wait to the extreme!"
"Ok!" Grinning from ear to ear, the rain guardian slowly types in numbers from his almost perfect memory and waits for the phone to pick up.
At the Takesushi Restaurant the home phone goes off with audible rings in the back of the kitchen; however, the owner is far too busy fixing up orders for hungry customers to pick up the call. The phone stops ringing and Yamamoto's father has no choice, but to check the caller I.D. later.
Removing the phone slowly away from his ear, Yamamoto tells his friends that his father didn't pick up and reluctantly passes the phone to the hyper boxer.
"I'll make this one phone call work to the extreme!" Typing the buttons a little too hard the phone breaks.
"Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!" Tsuna yelps.
"How the bitch did you break the phone?" Gokudera jumps up, angered at the sun guardians actions.
"I didn't break the phone! The buttons were old to the extreme!"
"Yea, the hell right!" Gokudera yaps agitated.
Not wanting to have any more conflicts, Tsuna stands up and tries to stop the two from biting each other's heads off. "It was just an accident Gokudera, I don't think Nii-san meant to do that." How the heck did he break the phone?
"But Juudaime, how will we get outta here if we only get one phone call and the phone broke?"
"Uhmmm, we'll think of something, but I don't think freaking out will solve anything." Tsuna responds light-heartedly.
"Yea, freaking out won't help," the officer that fell from earlier requites, "Now you guys'll hafta wait if you want another phone call, but I think that you'll hafta wait for more than an hour seeing that the phone is broken."
"Che, thanks a ton for the help Turftop." Gokudera sarcastically tells Ryohei.
"Oi, it's not Turftop, octopus head! Get it right to the extreme!"
"Hey, it's-"
"Annoying," a voice says from the side.
Huh? That voice. Is that? The smallest of the group of boys thinks. Turning to the side, Tsuna's thoughts are answered when he sees the Namimori perfect coming in from the side with Kusakabe. Is Hibari-san the fifth boy, but if he is then why is Kusakabe with him? Wouldn't that make him the sixth kid? But Hibari-san wasn't even there. Was he? Wanting some answers, Tsuna opens his mouth to ask Hibari if he was the fifth kid being taken in for the burning of the forest.
Beating Tsuna to the punch the head chief of police opens his mouth and questions the perfect. "What brings you here Hibari-san?"
"Those herbivores," he says staring at the four mafia members in the small prison, "they disturbed the peace within Namimori; they will be bitten to death." Hibari merely states glaring at them.
The head chief of police was at loss for words, "Uhmmm, yes, uhh," the intensity in the perfect's eyes made the man pull at the rim of his collar, "you can take them if you want, but we need to call their parents about the repairs."
"I'll pay for them," Hibari bluntly said.
"Yes, of course," the chief scoffs.
Except for Gokudera and Ryohei, the sky and rain guardian were sweat dropping and gulping out loud to the skylark's words.
At least I found out that he's not the fifth kid. Tsuna thinks.
"You touch one hair on Juudaime and there'll be hell to pay!" the storm guardian voices.
"You want a fight, I accept to the extreme!" Ryohei howls.
Yamamoto and Tsuna just looked at each other knowing that the two boys trying to oppose the cloud guardian was impossible. The bomber and boxer just stood there having a profound glare fight with the raven-haired boy. Yamamoto being the braver person stood up and tried to yield the storm and sun's outbursts. "We should be glad that Hibari-san is here to bail us out of here. I mean our one phone call thing wasn't really working out and-"
"So you'll let that damn Bastard hurt Juudaime!" Gokudera yelled.
"No, I mean-"
"Real men never back down from a fight to the extreme!" Ryohei added, even though their meanings of Hibari's arrival were completely different.
Tsuna couldn't stand the hostility in the room and got up to help Yamamoto stop the madness, "Yamamoto's right, well, about the phone call thing, but being happy about Hibari-san bailing us out is ummm..."
Being done with the herbivores little verbal eruption, the cloud guardian signaled Kusakabe to open up the tiny prison to let him have access to 'biting them to death.' But before Kusakabe could take a step a rookie officer walks in with a boy dressed in a black cloak.
"I got the other boy, chief!" The rookie exclaims all too exciting. Everyone turns their attention to the rookie and the boy clad in black.
Who the heck is that? Tsuna thinks.
"I am not the 'other boy,' the kid begins, "I am Keith from the new world order and I believe that man stands in the way to complete success. Man is the ruler of man and land, so how do you anger man? By destroying what is rightfully his! That fire- that was first seen by myself- was calling my name! The flames of that fire burned itself in the very being of my soul. That fire made me realize my own inner turmoil! That fire was meant to be there today! That fire was the first step to destroy man! That fire was everything!" Keith, who he claims himself to be, says this exasperatedly and takes huge breaths of air.
Know one knows who this deranged boy is or what the heck the new world order is, so everyone stares at him – not knowing what to do.
Finally having his nerves hit breaking point, he becomes the only person in the room that does know what to do. He merely walks towards Keith, tonfa in hand, and bites the poor inner turmoil boy to death; not only the kid in black, but also the rookie officer for bringing him in.
I'll continue this if anyone would like me to...
