Hello everybody I know this chapter will be skipping the sky battle. I would love to write the whole thing out but it would take a long time and besides you guys already know it. I'm going to go to the after where they are in the Takeshi's sushi shop.

"Regular Thoughts"

Yurika's Dream thoughts

Everybody was celebrating in the sushi shop even Chrome was taking part in, though she wasn't as passionate about it as they were. Meanwhile Yurika was sitting in an empty booth next to Ken who she was able to bribe to come with her because there was free food, though Chikusa refused to go saying he had to catch up on something. (Secretly back at the base Chikusa was watching soap operas XD). The only one who wasn't there was Hibari and of course everyone knew he didn't like gatherings of any sort. Yurika sighed patting Ken on the back which looked as if she did it softly but it was hard enough to make him choke (though she didn't know that) "I'm going to go walk around, being around people like these guys make me sick" Yurika said as Ryohei and Gokudera turned towards her "What was that?" they both yelled at her as she stuck some California rolls in both their mouths "Shut it or you'll bust my ear drums" she said as Yamamoto laughed "Ahaha Sure you are going to go? There is plenty to eat no worries" Yamamoto said as Yurika waved it off, Tsuna went to go see her as she walked out the door "Masaomi-san!" Tsuna called out as she turned around sighing softly "What?" she asked her voice dull and impatient. Tsuna fidgeted forgetting for a moment what he was going to say as she stared at him. "T-That's right, thanks for fighting for us in the Snow Guardian battle it was really ni-" Tsuna said as he got cut off by a spears blade point aimed at his neck "I told you it wasn't out of the kindness of my heart or any of that useless feelings. My goals are same as Mukuro-san's and since he is still strapped in Vendicare it is my job to get to you for him. Under no circumstances are you ever allowed to say it was nice of me to do this or that, or whatever" Yurika said as she brought the spear back and sheathed it under the cloth. Tsuna paled as he nodded going back in as he glanced at her retreating back.

Walking along the road she reached Nami Middle School as she scoffed. She jumped up onto the walls as she passed the gates. She then walked up to the roof as she looked out across the wide horizon of the town, the sky was painted a beautiful orange with dashes of pink and purple as the sun starts to set. She then heard the door open as she turned her head to see Hibari his tonfas out and ready. "What are you doing herbivore? You are not allowed on school grounds after student release and also because you aren't even a part of this school" Hibari said as she sighed "Cloud Guardian, if so then why are you here?" she asked back as he glared. "I want you to fight me herbivore now" Hibari said as she shook her head "Don't be so territorial" Yurika shot back.

Hibari pulled back as Yurika dropped her guard for an instant as he charged in lashing his tonfas at her as she jumped up and back flipped off of the fence. Down below she saw men in dark brown cloaks and white almost loose bandages on their face. "T-The Vendicare guards? I thought they wouldn't bother me because Kukai paid them off" she thought as she landed into the arms of one of them as they cuffed her. "What is the meaning of this let me go" she said as Hibari jumped down "You guys better not be crowding around here" he said coldly as Yurika scowled at him. The setting sun disappeared as the sky was colored with dark blue and sparkling stars as they pulled her along, Hibari attempted to attack them but the third one on the left shot out iron chains as it wrapped around Hibari's frame and tightened as the guard lifted him up and swung him into the side of the building releasing the chains hold.

"Kukai paid you off why are you taking me?" Yurika asked "Because your father pulled back the money and left you now you belong to us again" the one holding onto her said as he knocked her on the back of the neck as she went out cold.

Later Yurika's eyes snapped open to reveal she was underwater as she heard faint mumbling coming from the other side. "Look she is awake, I thought the dose of drugs we gave her would keep her asleep, we might as well do what we did with that Mukuro fellow" a guy said, through the waters she could see them well, the one who had talked just now he had strong, handsome features his hair was of a rich chocolate brown and his eyes were a deep blue. The other two were different of course the one to the right had silver white hair and crimson red eyes with a toned body and the one on the left had shaggy black hair and light brown eyes. The one who had talked first came up to the containment Yurika was in as he tapped on the glass wincing slightly from the cold temperature "Hello there Yurika-chan I'm doctor Takuma nice to meet you" he said his voice flowing out calmly and smoothly. Yurika's expression was calm as she said nothing and obviously couldn't because of the mask connecting to the tube refrained her from speaking. Takuma chuckled as he sighed "I will be in charge of looking over your containment as well as Mukuro's to make sure they don't shut down or that nothing has happened to them" he said. She tried to move but it was hard because of the white strait jacket they put on her, she couldn't use her powers in her left eye either because there was something covering it as well. It was not called the impregnable Vendicare for no reason.

Takuma looked at her as he closed his eyes and turned away walking down the halls as he disappeared into the darkness. Yurika began to get sleepy and knew that he must have given her heavy doses of sleep drugs again. Everything was getting blurry as she slipped into a deep sleep. In her dreams she replayed back the words the guards had said to her "Kukai had paid you guys off! Why are you taking me?" she asked "Because your father pulled back the money and left you, now you belong to us again" the guard said. This just proves he wanted me gone…..that damn old man I will never see him as someone worthy of being called my father again.

Meanwhile Chrome and Ken were back at the Kokuyo land "Hey Kaki-pi ~byon did Rika-chan come back yet?" Ken asked as Chikusa shook his head ignoring the idiotic nickname that had somehow branded onto him. "No I haven't seen her since she went to the sushi shop" Chikusa said. Chrome was worried "Really? You guys stay here then I will go and find her" she said as she went out "Ah Chrome ~byon" Ken called out but she could not hear.

Chrome had started searching everywhere but could not find Yurika anywhere, she then went to Nami Middle School as she looked around and saw a small crater in the side of the school building with Hibari still out cold.

"Kyouya-san" Chrome said as she went to try and wake him up as she shook him softly. His eyes snapped open as he stared up at Chrome pushing her away "W-What happened Hibari-san?" she asked softly "Nothing" he said "Please tell me Yurika is gone and I can't find her anywhere" Chrome said her voice almost frantic "That's because she was taken back by the Vendicare guards" Hibari said bluntly as he walked away. Chrome's eyes widened slightly as she ran to Tsuna's house and knocked on the door. Tsuna looking tired and a bit frazzled opened the door "What is it Chrome what's wrong?" he asked sleepily with a yawn "Yurika-chan was taken back by the Vendicare guards" Chrome said and that immediately woke him up as he invited her in.

Reborn was already awake by the time Tsuna ushered Chrome up into his room "What? But her father paid a bail fee" Tsuna said "Are you sure Chrome? You sure you did mistake it?" Reborn asked calmly as Chrome nodded "I was trying to find her and saw Hibari and he told me what had happened" she said. Reborn looked deep in thought "Alright to confirm our suspicions we will go and ask Kukai about it tomorrow, for now Tsuna get some rest and Chrome go back to Kokuyo land so those two won't be troubled" Reborn said "But Reborn" Tsuna said but he was already fast asleep.

The next morning all of the guardians had been informed and they met up in the Nami park with the exception of Hibari once again. "Juudaime we heard what happened is it true?" Gokudera asked "Really Tsuna? They took her back?" Yamamoto asked as Tsuna nodded "Yeah since we don't know what happened exactly we need to ask Kukai-san about this" Tsuna said "ALRIGHT LET'S GO INVESTIGATE TO THE EXTREME!" Ryohei shouted as all heads in the park turned to look at him "Shhh big brother please be quiet about this" Tsuna said "Shut up turf head can't you see you are troubling Juudaime with your yelling?" Gokudera said "What was that octopus head?" Ryohei asked back as they glared down Tsuna spreading them apart. "Alright Kukai-san's home address in Namimori should be this way" Tsuna said, but after fifteen minutes of walking around in never ending circles Tsuna sighed. Reborn shook his head as he hit Tsuna "No good Tsuna you can't even find and address" Reborn said as he read it "It's this way hyah! Go no good Tsuna" Reborn said pointing in the direction as he sat on Tsuna's head. Soon they reached a really traditional Japanese styled home, the halls were of a rich dark maple wood color and the doors or screens were rice paper and the rooms had tatami mats on the floors. In the back garden there were some bamboo trees, a eucalyptus tree and at the end of the hall there was a slightly tilted sakura blossom tree that's branches seemed as if it embraced the house and was protecting it.

They walked into the room to see Kukai sitting reading the paper and drinking some green tea. He looked up and saw them "Oh it's you guys hello again" he said putting the paper aside as he shook their hands and invited them to sit. "So what is this about?" he asked pouring them some tea. Tsuna was hesitant to ask not wanting to bother him. Reborn gave a hard nudge as Tsuna winced "Um well sir we were wondering why Masaomi-san is back in Vendicare" he said. A silence set in and all that was heard was the soft blowing wind and the ring of the chimes hanging by the door. "Here is your tea drink up, oh how about snacks! I'll bring you some" he said avoiding the topic as he left the room closing the screen behind him as Tsuna sighed. "He dodged the topic. I knew it he didn't want to talk about it" Tsuna said sighing "That bastard, he should answer the Juudaime instead of ignoring him I'll blow him up" Gokudera said as Tsuna shook his head. Yamamoto thought for a bit "Ne Tsuna just be strong and ask him again" he said giving his signature smiles "I don't quite follow or understand any of this but Kukai-san must be hiding something" Ryohei said scratching the back of his head.

Kukai came back in with some cookies and two tea cakes cut into three. "Hey Kukai-san I know this is troublesome but please tell us why your daughter is being taken back into Vendicare" Tsuna said as he looked away "The sakura blossoms are so beautiful that is why I love spending time in this room" Kukai said avoiding it once more "P-Please answer-" Tsuna started "The fragrance of them is soothing as well" Kukai said cutting in as Gokudera grabbed the collar of his shirt "Stop messing around you bastard and tell Juudaime why the hell your daughter is back in Vendicare" Gokudera said "G-Gokudera-kun stop it" Tsuna said as Gokudera dropped Kukai back onto the floor. "I do not see why I should tell you anything so I suggest you leave now" Kukai said. Gokudera was about to pounce when Yamamoto held him back "Let go of me you baseball idiot" Gokudera said "Ahaha no need to get violent Gokudera-kun" Yamamoto said.

The group left as they all let out a sigh, after they had left Chrome had gone back to Kokuyo land. "We can't find out anything because Kukai won't tell us anything" Tsuna said.

Meanwhile Hibari was beating up street thugs like no tomorrow, he was really frustrated that he couldn't fight back and he was even knocked out cold. Hibari swung his right tonfa hitting someone's nose as he heard a crack. His shirt was splattered with blood as he sighed deeply putting the tonfas away. He walked to Namimori Middle school and up to his usual spot on the roof and lay down. He stared at the wide expanse of the sky, it's calm and soothing light blue color and pure snow white clouds drifting by slowly. "I could have at least done something for her but then I was knocked out like that" he thought and once he did he shook his head, the thought was weird because he had never had an idea like that drift through his mind before.

Hibari started seeing visions of her in the sky, the way she looked her hair, her eyes, her skin, and what she was wearing. He didn't know why but she was just suddenly on his mind.

Yurika woke up once more and realized she wasn't in the water containment anymore, and she can talk but her left eye's power was still restrained for safety purposes of the person who let, her out of course. It was Doctor Takuma, he wore a small smirk on his face as he looked at her "I wanted to talk for a little, get to know you" Takuma said as she looked away "I see no need for something like that" Yurika said "Come on don't be so cold on me" Takuma said chuckling "Was that supposed to be some cracked up joke about my powers? Don't joke around with me why can't you be quieter and leave me in the containment like previous doctors did?" Yurika said as more of a rhetorical question. Takuma had a playful gleam dance in his eyes as he patted Yurika's head "Are you saying you don't remember me?" he asked "Though I guess it has been quite long since then" Takuma said as Yurika slapped his hand away "What are you talking about?" she asked as he laughed "It's me the one who brought you into the Estraneo family in the first place" He said as the vision came back to Yurika, back then he was only a young teenager of about seventeen years old. A silence crept over them as they both did not talk for some time; Yurika looked away as she observed more closely what was outside of her containment. There were machines and wiring here and there that were connected to the water containment they held Mukuro and I in, he was right next to me, the only computer in here was a laptop connected to a separate outlet from the others, everything else looked like it could hold no life seeing as how dark the room was and how endless the hallway looked as the lighter part of it disappeared into the darker parts of the halls. The only light she could see was the containment tubes next to her and the lamp light over by the laptop.

For some reason it all felt nostalgic to her as she sighed turning back around to Takuma. "Fine alright I'll talk so what is it?" she asked breaking the cold silence that was once between them "Yay finally the Ice Princess' heart had now melted and she will open her feelings up to me as I embrace her tightly" Takuma said jokingly as Yurika threw a book at him "Zittisca, io già gli dissi circa quello che La successe di nuovo poi così ora voglia cosa sapere sinistra?" she asked her voice sound dull, and bored. Takuma thought for awhile as he nodded "Come circa Lei mi dica Suo piace e prova antipatia?" he asked as Yurika rolled her eyes just slightly thought Takuma caught it anyways "Mi piace leggere, non interessi che romanzi, libri leggeri che mi piace leggere solo; Mi piace anche tempo freddo e personalmente ora io non posso mangiare qualsiasi cosa caldo o scaldare a causa dei miei corpi la costituzione speciale; Mi piace essere la maggior parte delle volte da solo perché sia più quiete e rilassando senza alcune delle persone chiassose" Yurika said as Takuma nodded "I see but what about Ken, Mukuro, Chikusa, and Chrome? You are around them when you got out of here" Takuma said in Japanese "Mukuro e Cromo non sono un problema fin da generalmente loro è poi più quieto Ken, Per Chikusa lui sta importunando solamente circa Ken perché loro ottengono in argomenti, per Ken io so come trattare con lui da quando gli piace faccia a pezzi cibo io glielo do e quello lo chiude su" Yurika answered still speaking in Italian "I see now tell me what you dislike" Takuma said. Yurika yawned slightly as she proceeded on "Io provo antipatia Kukai, cibi caldi persone irritanti in generale, e la mafia la maggior parte di tutto" Yurika said as Takuma nodded.

"Well I think I should get you back in your water prison now or I'll get in trouble, I'm not supposed to let you out but then it gets so lonely down here and it's also really creepy having two sleeping people just right there I always feel like you guys are staring at me" Takuma said strapping the strait jacket back onto her and connecting the tubes and mask to her body and mouth. He then led her back in and closed the containment as the water refilled knocking Yurika out cold once more but this time Takuma used the same thing he used to keep Mukuro forever asleep.

Takuma looked over his work area and sighed not wanting to go back to work. He looked back up to Yurika, her hair was floating around the water softly and her face looked so at peace and innocent when she was asleep. Her pale skin looked so smooth in the water that he just wanted to reach in and touch it. Takuma shook his head of the thought as he walked back over and started typing up codes and working on some other paperwork.

"Come on Juudaime don't get discouraged lets go ask that bastard one more time" Gokudera said trying to cheer Tsuna up. Yamamoto was chuckling as he patted Tsuna on the back "Yeah come on Tsuna cheer up ne?" he said as Tsuna smiled slightly "Ok I guess we can try again but how will we get him to say?" Tsuna asked. Behind the three, Reborn was smirking as he whispered something into Ryohei's ears as he agreed loudly.

Hibari started wondering different possibilities like could he break into Vendicare and beat those guys up for making him look like an idiot? Or rescuing Yurika at the same time? It was impossible though because forget about breaking in what about breaking out?

Forget about breaking in or out, how was he even supposed to find this place anyways? He sighed in frustration as he just tried to forget about it and go to sleep. Ever since that girl came he has been feeling something tingling inside him but what was it?

When Tsuna turned around he couldn't see Reborn or Ryohei "Eh? Reborn! Ryohei-onii san where are you?" Tsuna called out as Gokudera sighed "Reboron-san, turf head where are you guys?" he called out along. "Hey could it be they went back to Kukai's house? I saw them talking about something" Yamamoto said. Tsuna paled as they rushed back to Kukai's house and saw him knocked out cold and Ryohei was carrying him "Hiiieee! O-Onii-san Reborn what are you doing?" Tsuna asked them "We are bringing him back to your place to interview him about the situation" Reborn said as he looked down slightly the shade of his hat covering his eyes as he smirked "But that's kidnapping!" Tsuna said as Reborn hit him "Shut up no good, clumsy, 17.1 averages Tsuna" Reborn said as imaginary weights pounded down onto Tsuna's head as his tutor mentioned his bad traits. Going along with it Yamamoto helped Ryohei carry Kukai back to Tsuna's house. When they got back Bianchi was making her usual poison cooking again and since she wasn't wearing anything to cover her face Gokudera dropped down in pain and had a stomach ache. His face went pale as Tsuna had to drag him up the stairs and onto is bed, while Kukai was strapped to a chair.

After a few minutes Kukai woke up "Agh I have a massive head ache" he said seeing blurry figures but in a minute they cleared up "You guys again, and and w-what is this? Why am I strapped to a chair?" Kukai said. "We have no choice since you wouldn't answer our question" Reborn said as he turned Leon into a gun and pointed it at Kukai "Now let's see if this works, if you don't answer then I will blow your brains out" Reborn said as Tsuna felt faint. "Now how old are you?" he asked as Kukai sighed "I'm thirty years old" he answered "Good what is your full name?" Reborn asked "What kind of question is that? Fine it's Kukai…Ellinor Masaomi" he said as Yamamoto and Ryohei broke out laughing "What is that? Such a girl name for a man" Ryohei said laughing loudly "Oh shut up you barbarians" Kukai said. Reborn gave a small chuckle "Tell us why Yurika is back in Vendicare" Reborn asked seriously. Instead of answering Kukai broke free of the ropes as he jumped out the window "I don't have time to play with you brats" he said as he made a break for it "He froze the ropes" Tsuna said as Reborn kicked him out the window "Go Yamamoto, Ryohei, Tsuna and follow him I will stay here with Bianchi and watch over Gokudera" Reborn said.

Tsuna landed flat on his face on the grass "OW!" he groaned in pain as Ryohei pulled him up and the three ran after Kukai. The chase went on for what seemed like hours on end as Kukai led them through narrow and dark alley ways, ran them straight into street thugs, went through crowded markets bustling with people, and when he went through the park was when they finally caught him. "W-Why do do you guys care what happened to my daughter anyways?" Kukai asked out of breath as Tsuna panted heavily, being as un-athletic as he was he wasn't used to running around this much. He looked to Ryohei and Yamamoto who were barely even panting and sweating like he was. "Because Kukai-san your daughter is someone I consider a friend of mine and I want to help her that's why" Tsuna said sitting down on the bench Kukai was on. Kukai sighed deeply "I'm going to be the bad guy if I tell you so why should I bother?" he said as Tsuna shook his head "You must have had a good reason to somehow so just tell us" Yamamoto said as Ryohei nodded "Though you seem like a jerk to the extreme it seemed like you loved your daughter" Ryohei said almost calmly. Kukai sighed as he nodded "Fine I will tell you why she is back in Vendicare" he said as he looked up to the bright blue sky the cotton like clouds floating by.

And that is the end for now until the next chapter and don't worry Yurika will get out of there again because I as the author will not allow for her to be in there for the whole story. Plus she still needs to get Hibari to love her! Lmao XD
