Chapter IV

All of them just look at Haru's face. She wasn't breathing anymore, no one cried, not a single tear came out of their eyes. But they knew, they were grieving inside, they were screaming for her, Tsuna and Kyoko lost it. They were all staring blankly, no one moved, no one dared to speak.

Yamamoto was the first one who gained his mind back, but before he could even move, a flash of light took the entire room. They all shut their eyes, as the light continues to brighten their eyes.

"Get her" a voice they were familiar of said.

Tsuna felt someone took Haru away from his arms.

They couldn't move, it was like they were all being paralyzed.

Seconds after they heard that voice, the light that was keeping their eyes shut vanished.

"Haru?!" Tsuna yelled when he saw Haru gone from his arms.

Then they saw Bermuda and...an enemy they knew once, standing infront of a portal, it was Checkerface, he was holding Haru on his arms.

"Let her go!" Tsuna ran towards them but he wasn't halfway through when an invisible barrier stopped him from getting to them.

"Give her back to us, Herbivores" Hibari took out his tonfas and was ready to charge but they saw Bermuda raised his hand.

"We come at peace" he said.

"Oh, really?! Then give her back to us!" Tsuna yelled.

Bermuda sighed and then Checkerface leaped on the portal, and he vanished.

"No!" Tsuna screamed. "Where did you bring her?!" he was trying to punch the barrier but it was too strong, and then, he was ready to use his gloves again. "X-Bur-"

"Don't be stupid, Decimo. You'll blow up your whole mansion if you do that. Don't worry, we will bring her back to you" he said and walked slowly towards the portal. "When the time comes" he said and vanished along with the portal.

...

It has been two years and three months since Haru was taken away from the family. There was no day that every single one of them won't hunt Bermuda, Checkerface, and Polimo Famiglia, Tsuna's orders. They did annihilate the Polimo Famiglia, turned them to ashes, but Tsuna wasn't satisfied, he wanted every single one of them dead.

"Any news?" Reborn asked Yamamoto, they were on the dark hallway of the mansion.

Yamamoto shook his head, his face was gloomy.

"And Tsuna?"

The rain guardian shut his eyes and shook his head again.

Reborn sighed "It's been two years now, Yamamoto. Tomorrow will be his inheritance ceremony. He's been turning the ceremony down for the past two years, thank goodness he didn't reject this time."

"He's been gone through hell, Reborn. After what happened to Haru-"

"You never found her body, am I right?"

"Checkerface and Bermuda stole her"

"What do they need with Haru?"

It was a mystery for the whole Famiglia.

Haru never knew Bermuda, or Checkerface, why did they take her then?

"Oi! Tenth wants to see us!" Gokudera appeared behind Yamamoto, he looked pissed.

"What's the matter this time?" Reborn asked.

"Kyoko's pregnant"

"What?!" Yamamoto said, his face was really shocked.

Reborn raised an eyebrow as he kept his face hidden behind his fedora. He knew something was wrong about the news, and the way Yamamoto react. "Is it Tsuna's?" he asked.

Gokudera nodded. "She said it was Tenth's"

"Are you sure?" Reborn asked.

Yamamoto twitched.

"Well...I also doubt that at first, but since Tenth didn't-"

"He claimed the child?" Reborn was a little surprised.

"Of course, it's his! Why will he deny his own child?"

They were taken back when Yamamoto speak, his tone was like he was mad.

"Don't shout, Baka!"

Reborn jump off to Gokudera's shoulder. "Take me to him" he said.

Gokudera nodded though he was still glaring at Yamamoto, they walked towards the dark corridors of the mansion to get to Tsuna's room, they probably didn't notice Yamamoto's balled fists.

Or so he thought.

They arrived to Tsuna's room. When they arrived, they saw Kyoko sleeping on his king sized bed, he was walking towards her, holding a blanket since she had slept on top of the bed's covers, and placed it on top of her carefully, not wanting to wake her up.

"Tenth" Gokudera said.

They stepped in inside his room, Gokudera walked towards his boss, Reborn was still on his shoulder, while Yamamoto stayed on his place. No one bothered to notice that, he stayed there to look at her, he stared on her face but he quickly shifted his head towards Tsuna's. "What happened?" he asked.

"She's just tired. Why are you here anyway?" there he goes again. His voice was cold, he wasn't that caring, gentle, considerate, calm, and kind Tsuna anymore. His eyes doesn't show life like the way it was after the accident, the way he looked at them, it was like all the life on his soul was sucked away from his body, he was nothing more like a robot.

"You look like a corpse, Dame-Tsuna" Reborn said.

Tsuna sat on his swivel chair and turned his back on them. "I'm fine." He said.

"Whatever, Tsuna. Just don't appear on the ceremony tomorrow looking horrible as it is now, it's not like you've gone through hell-"

"I really did have gone through hell, Reborn! After all these years...after all these years she's been gone." Tsuna was choking back his tears, he doesn't want them to see him tearing up now that it's been two years she's been gone. "I've been through hell, Reborn"

All of them were taken back. They never heard Tsuna yell like this, much more yelling on his demonlike tutor, it seems like he had forgotten it this time. He placed his arms on his knees and he covered his face with his hands. Gokudera tried to approach his boss, but Reborn had stopped him. "You never stopped blaming yourself, didn't you?"

There a pregnant pause. Tsuna slowly raised his head and look towards the moon. "I never did stop. Not for one second I wished to see her again, I never admitted I was stupid enough to let her go, to let the only person who was always there for me die...and it was because of me she's been gone"

"Don't be such an idiot, Tsuna! I'm sure if Haru's here, she won't like watching you became miserable-"

"Don't you get it?!" Tsuna roared, he slammed his fist hard on his table, waking Kyoko. "She was killed because of me!" he spat. You could see, and feel the anger inside of him through his voice. "She's been taken away from us, and I never even had the chance to tell her I'm sorry! Do you know how hard it is for me to walk here inside the mansion everyday only to find out no Haru would be welcoming me anymore...I won't see her smile ever again...I can't tell her...I love her...anymore."

Kyoko covered her mouth out of shock.

Tsuna loved Haru.

All these time...she hurted her friend.

"Oh, Haru...I'm sorry." Kyoko's tears were drenching the sheet on Tsuna's bed, she gripped on the sheets tighter, letting all her anger out. "It's my fault."

Reborn wanted to smack Tsuna's head, big time. But he thought, this wasn't the right time to be violent, Tsuna looked really fragile. They knew he was just trying to control his emotions, he's been hiding all his hatred, and anger inside of him.

And no one would want a raging Tsuna right now. The whole mansion might blow off.

"We'll find her, Tenth."Gokudera said as he looked at his boss with assurance.

"When?" Tsuna asked. He went back to his seat again as he was already calm, and now he turned sad. "You know it's been years"

"We're Vongola. We will find her." Reborn said, he jumped off from Gokudera and landed on top of Tsuna's table. While the whole place was covered with darkness, from where Reborn stood, the moon was lighting him. "But for now...for her sake...do what's best for yourself...and for your inheritance ceremony tomorrow."
