Warning: Guardian-bashing, cussing to the max, Enma's rage, and family fluff with Tsu-kun and the Fantasmi. Oh, and a very very pissed off OOC Enma. Yeah. O_o
-~*Chapter 5: The Earth- Enraged*~-
-~*Vongola Mansion*~-
Seven figures sat together in the largest room. The shadows closed in around them as the sun set and the day turned into darkness. Most had the remnants of tears on their faces, others held their stoic facade but still felt like crying. They had done the worst thing they could ever do in the Vongola famiglia. Abandon their boss. Their kind, caring, and now gone Decimo.
"What will we do?" Asked one with short black hair and a scar on his face.
A man with white hair looked at the ground. "What can we do? We... We betrayed him, Takeshi! And Hayato hasn't even talked since our ancestors disappeared!"
The mentioned silverette stayed silent, as did a pair of people with a pineapple-shaped hairstyle. The girl was still crying, and the man's face was shadowed in the dim light. No one bothered to turn on a lamp, however.
"We should search for Tsunayoshi."
A distraught Yamamoto Takeshi looked at a certain skylark with shock. " Didn't you hear Primo and... Sera Lupo?"
Hibari glanced at Yamamoto. "Hn," he grunted as he crossed his arms.
"What's happened here?!"
The Day Guardians looked at the source of the voice to see Dino Cavallone and Enma Kozato looking shocked. Most likely because of the state of the mansion and the Guardians themselves. All of them avoided the duo's questioning and worried eyes, and feelings of unworthiness of such feelings bloomed in their chests. They had done something horrible.
And they couldn't fix it.
"Where's Tsuna-kun?"
Gokudera buried his face in his hands, struggled to keep back tears. He clenched his teeth to keep back sobs. How could he have abandoned him? He was the only one who cared, who excepted him! 'Juudaime...'
"We were so stupid, and now he's gone..."
Dino's eyes widened. "W-what? Kyoya, what does Hayato mean?!"
Hibari looked at the floor, bangs covering his steely eyes. "We left the Omnivore. It disgusts me that I was so herbivorous. Now the Omnivore has left."
Emma's eyes widened before they narrowed in rage. His fists clenched, turning the knuckles white. Dino had his eyes wide open and mouth gaping. The once-Decimo's brother figure ran the words through his head before the meaning of them clicked.
They had abandoned him. They had abandoned Tsuna.
Surprisingly, it wasn't him that snapped first.
"How could you?! How could you just abandon Tsuna like that?!" Enma demanded, fury shining in his red compass eyes.
Takeshi paled and looked at him. "W-we saw him... Kill many-"
"Shut the fuck up!" The red-headed Simon boss growled. "Those are fucking excuses! This is the mafia for God's sake! And it's not like you haven't killed someone, you bastards! If Tsuna's a monster, then you all are fucking demons! Hell, probably even the devil himself!"
Everyone in the room was still as Enma panted. He had never- never- cursed like that before. The Guardians' eyes were on the floor. But Enma wasn't done yet.
"You are all cowards! If Tsuna killed anyone, it was probably for your sake! And then you just abandon him?! What the fuck is wrong with you?! He treasured you more than anything! He loved you like a family! Do you have any idea what he was probably feeling?!" Enma paused for breath and glanced at Dino. He could see the man was as pissed as he was, but controlling it better. The young boss took a deep breath and glared so hard Dino was surprised the Guardians- or former Guardians- didn't spontaneously combust. He was quite disappointed they didn't.
With that, Enma grabbed Dino by the arm and stormed out of the seemingly abandoned Vongola Mansion. The group was left to their self-tormenting thoughts; some sobbing, some barely restraining themselves from destroying something, some looking blankly with dead eyes.
They all had the same thought running through their head.
'What have we done?'
-~*At the home of the Phantoms*~-
"Signorina Sera, I have news of the Rainbow."
Sera stood on the balcony outside her room looking at the stars. She did not turn as a tall, blond-haired man with fierce emerald eyes emerged from the shadows. The two's long hair was lifted slightly in the gentle night breeze. It was as if the night was caressing them like a mother. Finally after a few silent moments, the girl with hair of moonlight spoke.
"What is it you have found, my dear Tiger?"
The man shifted slightly and pushed a lock of hair from his face. "The Rainbow has been searching for their lost Sky."
Silence reigned once more.
"... I see... What were their words?"
"They wish to see Signore Cielo. I told them to come to Andria when the Great Lion appeared in the sky. Was I wrong to do so?"
Sera shook her head and turned to Illusorio Tigre, a small smile playing on her lips. The man notice she had been happier since Tsunayoshi had come to them. He was happy for her.
"No, he most likely wishes to see them. Especially the one called Reborn. I have heard that they were more like father and son than him and his real father were. The dear Sky would most likely be overjoyed to see him again." This time Sera smiled a full-blown smile. "But thank you for waiting until Leo has taken command of the night. Tsuna is still fragile."
Illusorio laughed. "That is probably the most I've heard you say in a while, my lady. I'm glad to see you speaking so much."
Sera turned back to the wide open sky and smiled.
"Thank you, Cavallo. For everything."
Cavallo smiled. "You're welcome, sorellina."
The man disappeared into the shadows once more, leaving the Wolf alone with her thoughts.
-~*At the same time, in the main room*~-
Tsuna sat surrounded by the people he loved and cherished. After using X-Burner to rid the world of one more corrupt famiglia, he had become slightly hysterical. Sera and he others, however, had assured him they would never leave him. They stayed by the young Fantasmi Primo until he had calmed down. Now they were laughing and joking- or in Rosso and Notte's case, arguing- as usual. A smile graced Tsuna's lips as he stared at his new famiglia. He felt wanted here, he felt he belonged. He felt loved.
But it was missing one thing. Reborn.
The man he thought of as more of a father than his actual one. The man who trained him to become who he is now. The man that turned his whole world around. The man that cared for him in his own twisted way. He missed him.
He would never admit it, though. Some of the hitman's personality must of rubbed of on him. Tsuna almost chuckled at the thought of some of his own personality rubbing off on Reborn.
"Tsuna-nii? You okay?"
Luna's voice snapped him out of his thoughts. He saw his Night Guardians staring at him- some in worry, some in wonder.
Tsuna chuckled sheepishly. "Sorry, I was just thinking. What did you say, Luna?"
Rosso rolled his eyes good-naturedly. "Geez, sometimes you can be as much of an airhead as my sister!"
"Hey!"
Everyone laughed as Stella glared at her brother. As the laughter died down, the room filled with a comfortable silence. The light from the lamps in the room made it bright, but not as bright as day. The strange family sat in the slightly dim light as Luna posed his question again.
"I asked you what we are to you."
If Tsuna was surprised by the question coming from then young whitette, he didn't show it. Instead, he smiled at his makeshift family warmly. He mocked a thinking pose as he spoke.
"Hmm, well Rosso is the hotheaded big brother, naturally..."
"Hey!"
They all laughed at this.
"... Stella the childish but reliable sister..."
Stella smiled brightly.
"...Notte is the eccentric and funny brother of the bunch..."
"Thank you, thank you!" Notte exclaimed as he bowed.
Tsuna continued with another warm smile. "...Eclissi and Luna are the lovable but trouble-making outotos..."
"We won't deny it~" the duo chorused.
"...And Sera is my dear imouto who acts more like a mother than anything," Tsuna finished with a chuckle.
"I'm afraid you have got me there, my dear fratello."
Everyone turned to the stairs to see Sera smiling at them with Lupa on her heels. She joined them in their conversation. They all became a little closer that night. And they where happy they did.
Zera: Sorry for not updating. School's a bitch. By the way, fratello means brother and sorellina means little sister. Signore and Signorina mean Mr and Ms. Or they could mean Lord and Lady. I also want to thank all my reviewers, faves, and followers. I have a special present for you if you search my Deviantart, AmaraOfTheMask. :) Thanks again!
