Chapter 9
A/N: Hey guys just want to say thank you for reviewing, also I know that some of you won't like this but I ask this question in every one of my stories because I want you guys to have the option of seeing this kind of thing in a story. Really I think the story line will be more shown than pairings but it'll make a very good epilogue.
Should the story have Mpreg?
This will probably be the end of the Kokuyo arc unless I feel sadistic when I meet my quota and leave you guys hanging.
Summary: The Dark Lord returns and before he could even get to Harry, Dumbledore sends the boy away with a guard to Japan thinking Voldemort would never look for him there. Harry, along with his guard, meets the mafia's greatest hitman.
Warning: Yaoi probably, pairings are 99% decided, (One more chapter and the pairings will have been completely decided and I think it'll surprise you guys unless you read the author's notes at the beginning of the chapters.)

-Last time-
"I know but…but…we need to do something about Rokudo Mukuro!"
"Thanks' to Hari, Lanchia isn't dead but we need to get an antidote within the hour."
"The yo-yo guy has to have an antidote," Harry reasoned
They took Lanchia and Yamamoto to a secluded spot in the trees to wait until they came back for them. "Let's go, he's in there," Reborn pointed to a build broken down building.
"I see,"
"He's in there,"
"This is it,"
"Let's go
-Currently-
"The stairs have been destroyed," Harry pointed out to them as they reached a destroyed stairway in the building, without all the pieces he couldn't just conjure up new stairs, they'd have to find another way.
"Mukuro is probably a floor above us, there must be a stairway still intact somewhere." Reborn reasoned
"What do you mean?" Tsuna asked, thanks to Bianchi, he now had a new pair of clothes after his old ones were destroyed when he went into dying will mode, it made the situation more serious now that he wasn't naked.
"It's easier for them to defend against us if they limit the number of passage ways between us, but on the other hand they cut off their own escape routes. It means that they are prepared to fight." The baby explained to his student who grew even more nervous at hearing that
"There's a cell phone on the ground," Gokudera picked the cell phone up and investigated it, "It's broken,"
Harry realized with a start that he had seen that cell phone before, "That's Hibari's cell, he has to still be here." He picked it up and pocketed the cell phone, hoping to give it back when he sees Hibari.
"Hibari's?"
"I'm sure of it; remember his ring tone is the school's song."
"We've got more important things to do; we need to find a stairway that goes up." Bianchi reminded
It took them awhile as each stairway they looked for that went up was destroyed. It wasn't until Tsuna saw a ladder that went to the next floor in a spacious room.
"It's an emergency ladder,"
There's was a hissing sound behind them and they turned around to see Chikusa healed and ready for a fight. Gokudera immediately attacked first by throwing a smoke screen in the air, "Leave him to me, you guys go on ahead."
"Hayato, the side effects from Shamal's trident mosquito will still cause pain just like before." Bianchi reminded, "Do you still intend to fight?"
"Of course, that's why I'm here,"
"Let's go Tsuna," Harry said heading in the direction of the emergency ladder
"But-,"
"Please go Juudiame; you need to take care of Mukuro,"
"Come on Tsuna, Gokudera can handle this," Harry reasoned though Tsuna still seemed unsure if to let his best friend go or not, Harry had full faith that Gokudera could handle things here, even with the effects of Shamal's poison.
"Let's all hang out again after this,"
That was enough to convince a little at least, "Y-You're right we will." Tsuna headed towards the ladder as Harry went up behind him so the boy would get up there safe.
Gokudera turned back to Chikusa with a knowing look, "You let them go without much of a fuss,"
Chikusa readjusted his shades, "Such was Mukuro-sama's request,"
-Line break-
"He's not on the second floor," They had made it safely to the second floor but only found a bowling alley. They deduced that Mukuro was on the third floor and just their luck that there was an intact stairway that lead up to the third floor.
"Mukuro's close,"
"You can feel it too can't you?" Harry asked rhetorically, it was this feeling that he got when he first stepped onto the second floor. It was like the room was distorted and the air was pungent with something he couldn't place his finger on. He could see that Tsuna also felt the same thing to a lesser extent and he had to guess it was his magic that was making him more aware.
They cautiously opened two steel doors that led into an empty dark room that only had a couch as its one item. On the couch was someone that was familiar to Harry and Tsuna.
"I'm so glad we could meet again," The blue haired boy greeted
"You're the boy from before," Tsuna remembered, he moved closer not fully aware of the danger of the situation, "Is this where you're being held?" He looked back at his friends confused at why they hadn't moved, "This is the Kokuyo student we met earlier; he's being held here." He informed them
"Kufufufu, please take your time, we're about to start a long relationship together….Vongola Juudiame,"
Tsuna's eye's widened, "How do you know I'm Vongola?"
"Because that's Rokudo Mukuro," Harry answered; he had guessed it from the very moment they had walked into the room. From the moment Harry met the boy he could sense that something was…off…about him.
"Kufufufu, that's right, I'm the real Rokudo Mukuro…"
The door behind them closed
-Line break-
Gokudera dodged the needles that embedded in the wall directly behind him. He had been dodging this guy for a while and he couldn't use his bombs because the space he was in was too small. He maneuvered out of the room and onto the floor but had to roll to dodge more poison needles, "You really suck!" He taunted before he ran ahead, he had to finish up this fight so he could go assist Tsuna and the others in their fight with Mukuro.
He turned a corner as Chikusa chased after him, but when Chikusa turned a corner it was too late for him to dodge the bomb that was stuck to the wall. Gokudera threw more bombs as his opponent was caught off guard, "Two times the bombs!"
Chikusa used his Yo-yo to take out the fuse making the bomb useless, "You must be upset that you were beaten last time, you made your move too quickly and thanks to that your legs were wide open."
Chikusa looked down and cursed at the lit bombs that were at his feet. The explosion wasn't enough to destroy the floor but it did deal extreme damage to his body.
"My weapon is most useful in areas with obstacles, you lost the moment you ambushed me here." He saw a figure in the smoke and pulled out enough bombs to finish the battle, "I forgot you're tough, die with-," Gokudera choked as he grabbed his chest in pain. He dropped the bombs and had to lean against a nearby wall for support since pain was coursing through his body, "Damn, at a time like this!"
-Break!-
They turned around to see that Fuuta had closed the door on them; "He seems safe," Harry went to inspect the boy and grew concerned at the faraway look in the boy's eyes, "We've been looking for you for a while now." Bianchi took a protective spot in front of the boy
"It's dangerous so stay back," She looked back and had to do a double take at the sharp end of a trident Fuuta was holding.
-According to the anime-
Gokudera coughed up blood at the claws that had pierced through his chest. He strained his head to look back and see the blond guy from Yamamoto's fight had sneaked up and attacked him from outside, "You were wide open," Ken taunted
-You'll see why they did it-
Bianchi gasped at the trident spear that was stuck in her abdomen. She looked down to see that Fuuta had stabbed her, she lost her footing as her vision blurred and she fell to the ground.
-No, no you won't-
Ken sat on the window sill as Gokudera grabbed at his bleeding chest, "You're all right," Chikusa observed of Ken
"I thought I was about to die though," Ken said his tongue stuck out like a dog, he looked at Gokudera, Sadistic glee in his eyes, "Take that you moron."
Gokudera breathed heavily as he limped back from the two not noticing that the wall he was backing up to was actually a curtain. He fell through the curtain down the stairs it hid, one of Birds bird's took perch on a wall, "Beaten!" It chirped
'Great now that pervert's bird is laughing at me too,' He coughed pitifully, 'How can I call myself Juudiame's right hand man? I haven't been able to do a thing for him.'
The bird started to chirp something, it was hard to make out but Gokudera had thought that it sounded very similar to the school's song. He looked towards the wall and saw tonfa's lying on the ground. He pulled out a bomb hoping that his intuition was right.
The two Kokuyo members started to walk confidently down the stairs, "Does he still plan on fighting?"
Instead of throwing the bomb at the members, Gokudera threw the bomb at the wall behind them. Gokudera chuckled as he realized his intuition was correct, "Your the only one I know who like our school's song that much." He saw the white shirt and the black head of hair sitting where the destroyed wall was blocking
"Who's-,"
"Namimori middle school disciplinary committee chairman, Hibari Kyoya."
A battered looking Hibari acknowledged them; "You look well," Gokudera said sarcastically, "You have Potter worrying about you."
"So this half dead guy is supposed to be your reinforcement?" Ken asked cockily
Hibari stood and picked up his tonfa's, "I could have gotten out myself but…this works. Leave these two to me," The bird took perch on Hibari's shoulder
Gokudera smirk, "Do as you wish,"
"Look at that, he's tamed Birds bird." Ken put in one his cartridges making his skin darken and his teeth lengthened even more. His hair turned orange and his hands turned into paws, "Lion's channel!"
Hibari smirked, "Ah, you're a little kitty,"
Ken charged able to dodge Hibari's first defensive swing but not the second or third which sent him up the stairs and out the window. He limped up the stairs to the other one, "I'll bite you to death next,"
-Break-
"Bianchi!" Harry called out and kneeled next to the woman he shook her in order to get her to awaken, "Bianchi!" He then produced a medic kit out of nowhere and started to bandage Bianchi where she was stabbed.
"Fuuta, what are you doing?" Tsuna demanded of the unresponsive boy. Tsuna had to dodge as Fuuta had tried to stab him as well.
"Seems like he's under mind control," Reborn assessed
"Wake up, Fuuta!" Tsuna cried but the boy could not hear him as he tried one more time to impale him with the trident spear. Tsuna was pulled back from the mind controlled child by Reborn
"I brought the whip Dino gave you,"
"What do I do with this?!"
"If you don't do something, you'll be killed."
"But I can't hurt Fuuta!"
"Stupefy!" Fuuta fell in Harry's arms unconscious, "It's alright, I've got you, you did nothing wrong," Harry cooed in his ear. He had thought that the situation called for it, for Tsuna was not going to hurt Fuuta and Fuuta had to be stopped. Tsuna hanged around a lot of strange people with strange abilities so maybe this wouldn't seem that strange.
Mukuro laughed, "You're always surprising me," He stood from the couch, "I didn't think that one of your people would be anywhere near here. You tend to stay near your own kind."
"Mukuro Rokudo, what do you think people are!?"
"People are merely…toys,"
"Don't shit around," Tsuna grabbed Dino's old whip, even though he had no idea how to use it, and charged at Mukuro.
"I never thought I would have to fight directly," His right eye seemed to change and only Reborn and Harry noticed it. For Tsuna it was too late for in an instance he was cut by Mukuro's complete trident. Tsuna cried in pain as he felt every nick that only happened in a second, Mukuro's eye glowed a violet color, "Is something the matter?"
"What happened?" Tsuna kneeled
"He struck as the two of you crossed paths," Reborn explained as a shout rang out
"Expelliarmus!" Harry shouted the disarming spell but it had no effect on Mukuro's trident
"Kufufufu, my weapon's immune to magic," Harry choked as their chances of winning and survival plummeted, if he couldn't use magic then he was right useless, just the thought that his greatest asset proved to be his greatest weakness.
"There's a dying will flame in his eye!" Tsuna accused
"So you can see it, this power is called the fourth path, a combat skill I learned from the path of Asura." Harry's eyes shot full as he heard that, it had been in one of his classes, the teacher had told him something and he remembered the name Asura appearing, "Are you familiar with 'Transmigration through the six worlds,'?"
"When people die they are reborn as a demon, a hungry ghost, a beast, an Asura, a human or a deva." Reborn explained
"I have the memory of going through all six realms; I've obtained six combat skills from the six underworlds."
"That's impossible!" Harry shouted in protest, "When you die and are reborn you forget all traces of your past lives. You know none of their experiences, their knowledge, or their abilities, that is the consequence of being reborn." Harry repeated everything his professor had once told him, "You shouldn't exist,"
"It's possible, Hari, but if it's true then he's quite the monster." Harry cursed Reborn; if it were true Reborn was undermining the actual threat.
Mukuro turned to the baby, "I don't want to hear it from you, a cursed infant, an Arcobaleno. Now let me show you my next skill," The Kanji in his eye turned to one making both boys fearful of what was to come. Mukuro stomped his trident to the ground making the ground upheave itself, everything was literally breaking apart and the boys had to grab on to whatever piece they could get in order to stop themselves from falling into the abyss below them.
Tsuna saw all his friend fall into the abyss before he himself started to fall
Harry however saw nothing but the floor and a screaming Tsuna. Reborn walked over and slapped the boy across the face, "What you saw was an illusion," Reborn explained, that Harry could understand since illusions were Voldemort's favorite form of torture so he had been taught to see through them.
"An illusion?" The boy asked confused
"You saw through it…well done," Mukuro sarcastically commended, "The first path, the path of hell, is a skill that destroys the persons spirit with an endless nightmare. However I'm beginning to see you relationship as I observe you." Mukuro said talking about Tsuna and Reborn relationship, "The Arcobaleno is here to monitor Vongola,"
"That's not true," Reborn spoke up, "I'm Tsuna's home tutor,"
"Kufufufu, that's very unique. But is the teacher not going to defend his student? I don't mind taking on the both of you at the same time." He gestured to both Harry and Tsuna, the boy was confident Harry surmised and he had right reason to be. Going down every path of transmigration and still retaining the memories, anyone who did that would have Dumbledore weary.
"It's the law,"
"What a very proper, mafia-esque response."
"I don't need to do anything, my students will defeat you," Reborn said looking directly at Harry who had moved from Fuuta's body to stand in front of Tsuna.
"Very well," The kanji turned to three and the next thing they knew snakes were all around them.
Tsuna at first thought the snakes were an illusion, "Is this an illusion, too?"
"The third path, the path of beasts, gives me the power to summon any animal to kill my enemies."
"So no, they're real," Harry answered to which Tsuna started to panic more. He kneeled down to one snake keeping out of the way of its teeth, "We're not your enemies, as a parslemouth I am your master, turn on him!" He said to them and pointed right at Mukuro the snakes beady eyes widened a fraction and they nodded. They were starting to turn around when Gokudera's bombs flew above them and exploded
The snakes were taken out By Gokudera's bombs
"Gokudera you idiot, they were going to attack Mukuro!"
"How was I supposed to know!?" He shouted back, Harry helped Hibari off his shoulder
"Do you understand Mukuro, I didn't only raise Tsuna," Mukuro's eyes narrowed at the baby, " I've got more students than just him
Hibari threw Gokudera away, "I've paid you back now,"
"My, my, there are a lot of spectators, what happened to Chikusa?"
Gokudera chuckled, "The shades guy and the animal guy are taking a nap down below."
"I see…"
Hibari got off Harry's shoulders and faced Mukuro, "Are you prepared?" He asked, grabbing his tonfas off the ground
"You sure are scary," Mukuro said sarcastically albeit a little seriously, "Please don't get between me and Vongola, besides you can barely stand right now, I've broken many of your bones during out last altercation."
Despite that Hibari still took up fighting stance, "Have you prepared your last will?"
"You say such amusing things; I guess I have no choice but to take care of you first." The kanji in his eye changed to four as he charged at Hibari starting their battle.
Harry helped Tsuna stand up off the ground, "You're the only one not hurt, shouldn't you help him?" Tsuna asked
Harry shook his head, "If I interfere it'll take a truckload of sweets for Hibari to forgive me. Besides his odds of winning this are pretty high, " 'Mukuro shouldn't underestimate him, it'll be the last thing he does.'
"They are still growing," Reborn commented
"It seems so, we may never know how the battle would've have gone if he had not been hurt." Harry cursed, when he told Tsuna Hibari's chances of winning were pretty high he never factored in Hibari's wounds. When he did the results went down, judging by the panting of the coughing of blood the prefect wasn't doing so well.
"Let's finish this quickly," His kanji turned back to one and sakura blossoms filled the air
"Sakura?"
"Hibari can't move when he's near sakura, Hibari's got the sakura-kura, Shamal gave it to him earlier with the trident mosquito." Reborn explained as Hibari's chances went down even more
Mukuro stood over the boy confidently, "Let's have you kneel before me…kufufufu." Hibari was about to fall over but in a sudden burst of strength landed one blow to Mukuro's body.
Gokudera laughed from the corner, "I gave him the medicine I got from Shamal," Gokudera held up a medical bag as proof
Harry's smirk returned as Hibari's results went up once more
Hibari landed a cross uppercut sending Mukuro to the ground,
"Tch, he took all the good parts,"
"He gets a free cake for this one,"
"We did it, we can go home now!" Tsuna shouted in joy
"But you two were perfectly useless in a battle with Mukuro."
"Leave us alone!" They shouted as one, Harry looked over to see that Hibari had fell over for real this time, "Hibari!" He ran over just as the boy was falling and kept him upright while he inspected him
"He was fighting unconsciously near the end. He must have been really upset that he lost once before." Harry surmised, the boy's body was definitely done for the day
"We need to take everyone to the hospital,"
"No need to worry, a very skilled Vongola medical team is on its way-,"
"That team will be useless," They stopped at that voice and turned back to see Mukuro with a white gun in his hands, "There won't be any survivors." That gun felt off to Harry, it was glowing white, guns shouldn't do that, he could feel a faint sense of magic from that thing. His magic could block gun shots though so he was prepared for Mukuro's attack if it came.
Gokudera moved in front of Tsuna
Mukuro slowly moved the gun from its position pointed at Tsuna; "Let's meet again," The gun was pointed at his temple, "Arrivederci,"
He pulled the trigger
That's where this chapter ends and unofficially I'll be continuing until Tsuna beats Mukuro.
You can unofficially call this chapter 10
"H-he killed himself," Gokudera said
"But why?" Harry wondered
"Maybe he would rather die than be caught, or…" Reborn trailed off as a feeling passed over his two students
Harry started to shake once he felt something wash over him. He could scarcely compare it to the feeling he got when Voldemort was resurrected but this felt more…dark. It just felt like something was wrong and he had to asses that maybe this wasn't over yet.
"I see you beat Mukuro," They turned to see that Bianchi had awoken, she turned to Gokudera clearly showing her covered right eye, "Give me a hand, Hayato?"
Gokudera begrudgingly walked over to her, "Fine, I guess just for today,"
Harry saw the glint just as Tsuna did, "Gokudera-kun, stay away!" Tsuna shouted and thanks to that Gokudera was barely able to dodge the trident spear Bianchi almost killed him with.
"Why'd you do that?!"
"That was strange," Bianchi looked at the trident spear as if she had never seen it before
'Something's off here, I can't tell what it is and it's frustrating but something is definitely wrong here.'
"Rokudo…Mukuro," Tsuna whispered and reminded Harry that of the feeling he had gotten when they first entered this room. Bianchi's body shook as she started to laugh
"We meet again," Binachi turned to them showing that her right eye was red and had a kanji in the middle, "I've still have something I must do so I've returned from hell." Mukuro laughed in Bianchi's voice
"Juudiame, let me take care of this," Harry face palmed as Gokudera started to chant in order to perform an exorcism.
Harry stared back at him with annoyance, "You can deposses someone like that, idiotdera!" Harry said, using Lambo's nickname for him.
The white haired boy gave his signature glare at him, "Well you try something then, Potter!" Harry was about to start a depossesion ritual when Bianchi started to choke before she fell to the ground unconscious
"There's no way that worked…Bianchi..." He inched closer to her body but stopped at seeing she was actually unconscious. The feeling washed over him a moment before it passed behind him and he turned around to see that Gokudera's had Mukuro's eye.
"Tsuna, move!" Harry pulled him out of the way as Gokudera tried to stab him.
"You're the first ones to notice that I've possessed someone in the first glance. You two amuse me to no end,"
"What's going on, Reborn!?" Tsuna asked frightened
"There's no mistaking it, you made it look like suicide but you used that bullet…the possession bullet is forbidden." Reborn's fedora covered his eyes, "Where did you get it?"
"Kufufufu, so you noticed that this is the possession caused by a special bullet?" Mukuro clarified
"A special bullet? Like the dying will bullet?" Tsuna asked not understanding what the two were talking about
"That's right, as the name says, the possession bullet allows you to take control of another person's body." Reborn explained
"No way!"
"That's why Bianchi and Gokudera are like this," Harry said
"The bullet was created by the Estraneo family. Not only must you have a strong spirit but you must also be suited for the bullet. Long ago the cold blooded use of the possession bullet cause it to be forbidden. The bullets and the knowledge to create them should have been destroyed back then." Reborn explained darkly,
"This isn't mind control, I don't control them; I completely take them over. Which means that this body is mine." It was hard to see, especially for Tsuna since that was his best friend's body that this monster was manipulating.
"That bullet must have been what you used to take control of men like Lanchia, but why do you have them?" Reborn demanded of the boy
"Let me just say…it's because they are mine." Mukuro answered in Gokudera's voice, "I'll be possessing you next, Vongola Juudiame,"
"I knew it, you're goal is to-,"
"It is not my goal; it is my means. My revenge can only begin after I have taken control of a young mafia boss." He start to come closer to Tsuna but Harry stood in front of him
"Kufufufu, would you really hurt your friends body?"
"I've wanted to kick his butt from day one, you've just given me an excuse." Harry pulled out his wand aiming it at Mukuro, the wondered if the magic worked on the blade or the staff
"Be careful of his blade, if your wounded by that he'll be able to possess you." Reborn warned
Mukuro threw the trident blade behind Harry and Bianchi's body caught it, "I actually like to call this ritual a contract," Mukuro leaned down and swiped the blade across Hibari's cheek forming a contract with him.
Hibari stood, body useless and was able to land a hit to Harry's stomach, "This body isn't of much use, fighting in a body like this, what a fearsome man." Hibari's body collapsed and they knew that Mukuro's spirit had left it
"Watch out he'll either possess Bianchi or Gokudera," But both siblings stood instead of one each being possessed by Mukuro. Harry couldn't use Stupefy since the body weren't really conscious and Expelliarmus wouldn't work on the trident spear so he had to resort to hand to hand combat but he couldn't hurt them to badly.
The door opened behind them and they saw Ken and Chikusa standing in the doorway. Their eyes were the same as Gokudera's and Bianchi's meaning they had been possessed as well.
"Possessing four people at once, it's unheard of."
"That's not all," Mukuro used Gokudera dynamite on them, possessing someone should allow the use of their magic as well Harry knew from studying, Mukuro really was a monster.
"He can use their abilities too?!" Harry shouted, dodging Chikusa's needles
Reborn himself had to dodge a swing from Ken, "You should be worried about your life as well-,"
"Arcobaleno," Chikusa launched his needles at Reborn making him block with his small jacket.
Harry took the blow from Gokudera's dynamite as he tried to block Tsuna from it.
"Kufufufu, the second path, path of the hungry ghost, is the skill used to steal the enemies abilities."
"He's possessed them plus he can use their skills," Right after Reborn said that fire pillars started to erupt from the ground.
"It's an illusion," Harry coughed from the ground, the smoke seemed real enough as it was filling his lungs, he shouldn't even be seeing the illusion so he wondered if this was Mukuro's true strength.
"If possible I'd like to take you without harming you."
"You can surrender you know," Mukuro spoke from Ken and Chikusa
"You haven't learned a thing," Reborn jumped at Gokudera but was cut off as Gokudera countered with bombs as the baby was in midair
"That shouldn't have killed you Arcobaleno!"
As soon as Ken saw Reborn's hat he stabbed it only to find out that he had stabbed the hat which Reborn grabbed a moment after. "I haven't felt the air of real combat for a while." Reborn said to himself
Tsuna helped Harry up off the ground, "Reborn…"
"I can do nothing, Tsuna, do something quickly,"
Harry put up a protego at Gokudera's bombs, Tsuna had put his head in his hands in fear, "This is beyond what I can handle!" The boy shouted, Harry could only look back at him as they encircled his protection
"If you're my student-," Dodge from needles, "If you're my student, you can overcome this."
"It's unfair to use unreasonable logic like that!"
Harry gasped as his bubble was cut into, "Tsuna, I need a plan!" Even pushing his raw magic at them was doing nothing as they were just bodies, and he couldn't harm Gokudera or Bianchi.
"Kufufufu, your teacher is panicking, he's falling into chaos over his students crisis." Bianchi tried to kill Reborn with her poison cooking but the baby expertly dodge it
"Your bro, Dino, overcame something similar,"
"I seriously want to meet this Dino!" Harry ducked his head so the bombs wouldn't hit him. Though whoever he was meant something to Tsuna obviously as the boy had mentioned him numerous times as his senior.
"Dino-san did?"
"When Dino was my student he faced a life or death situation. He overcame that and transformed himself, no longer the weakling Dino but he became the Bucking Bronco Dino."
"Became?" Tsuna shut himself in denial, "I don't get it! Dino-san and I are-,"
Harry saw it when Tsuna was sulking, "In front of you!" Tsuna opened his eyes to see bombs right in front of him but the impact of the explosion was lessened to just something hard hitting him. He looked down to see Harry in his arms and his back scarred from the blast, Tsuna saw his eyes bloodshot from the pain and didn't even consider all the pain his friend was going through shielding him.
"That's enough talk, let's bring this to an end," Chikusa had activated the fourth path but fell unconscious before he was able to use it. Ken picked up the trident flame as he activated his own fourth path
"What?" Mukuro said as if it was nothing, "It happens sometimes, every time I take over a person's body, when that body breaks, there's nothing I can do." Mukuro didn't seem to care that one of his subordinates was in pain
"That's…you're forcing them to move even though their wounds shouldn't allow it?" Tsuna said horrified
"That's why he didn't possess Hibari," Harry wheezed, he should have put a protego at his back when he defended Tsuna but he acted too quickly and could already hear Draco chastise him for being a stupid rash Gryffindor.
"Chikusa can go a little further," Chikusa stood up on shaky legs though he was still possessed by Mukuro.
"If you force him his wounds will-,"
Chikusa scoffed, "I'm fine, I don't feel pain,"
"I-Isn't that your friends body!?"
"That's incorrect," Mukuro answered, "Once I possess them it's my body, it's my right to decide whether it breaks or dies."
"That's-that's wrong," Harry accused, the man sounded just like Voldemort if not worse, at least Voldemort cared a little about his subordinates enough to break them out of Azkaban.
"Should you be worried about yourselves when you are about to be killed." Bianchi and Gokudera came closer to the both of them
"You're an amusing man, you're not suited for the mafia," Tsuna noticed the blood from Gokudera's chest and Bianchi's stomach
"P-…Please stop this, they'll die!" Tsuna pleaded to the mad man
Mukuro laughed, "I remember now, when you were fighting Birds you were about to let yourself get stabbed to save those girls. Let's do it that way…because of your softness, you will be possessed by me."
"Listen, if you don't want any further harm done to your friends-,"
"Make a contract with me without running away."
Tsuna hesitated to answer, "In the end a person like you can't survive in this world, you're not suited to be Vongola Juudiame. Now give me your body," The trident spear glimmed in Ken's hands
"What should I do…Reborn…what should I do?!" Tsuna was desperate for answers but turned to the wrong person
"I can't help you, pull it off together." He nodded towards Harry
"B-B-but you always help me…" Tsuna was freaking out, "I don't know what to do!"
"Don't be so pathetic!" He stopped his panic attack at Harry's shout
"But I'm lost, I can't do it by myself!" His head was knocked to the side by Harry's punch before his shirt collar was grabbed, Harry's arm was bloody from trying to heal his back.
He couldn't believe it was his turn to start making the speeches, "Listen, that doesn't matter right now, that title, Vongola Juudiame, if being the tenth to mafia family means that you'd allow your friends to fight even though they're hurt then I know that's something you don't want to be Tsuna." He moved back so the boy could collect himself, "Be the dame-Tsuna who gets shot everyday in order to save his friends," Harry couldn't believe how much his own speech rang true to him as well, "What does dame-Tsuna want to do,"
Mukuro shook his head, "What he really wants is to run away from here or maybe you won't run away for the sake of your friends?" He said it disgustingly, as if the thought of caring for someone else was disgraceful.
"I want to win," Tsuna said in a small voice
Reborn smirked beneath his fedora
"I want to beat Mukuro," Tsuna answered
Harry smirked, "Are you sure that your resolved enough?" he asked
"I am, I don't want to lose to such a terrible person," Harry didn't know why but Tsuna's factors were increasing. It shouldn't be since his ability couldn't factor a person's resolve, it should still be at zero but for some reason Harry believed in Tsuna, that Tsuna could win which only helped fuel his own resolve.
"I'll hear the rest of the story after I've possessed you, after you've killed your friends with your own hands." Mukuro's kanji went to four which was his best combat path.
"I want to beat this guy!"
"We'll beat this guy!"
There was a bright green light that blinded all of them, once it faded some they saw bright green tendrils attached everywhere. They looked up to see Leon in the air being the cause of the tendrils and glowing.
"He's finally emerged," Reborn commented knowing what would happen next
"Emerged?"
"Like 'That' time…" Reborn smirked, "Like when Dino became the Bucking Bronco."
"I see, Arcobaleno this is your doing," Mukuro cut through the tendrils one at a time
"You're wrong, this is my shape shifting chameleon partner Leon. For some reason he becomes a cocoon when my students are given a trial and when the student grows he emerges." Reborn explained
"That's amazing,"
"I wondered what he'd show us at the end…his pet's emergence."
"You two certainly are unique,"
Tsuna turned to Reborn confused, "How is this related to Dino becoming the Bucking Bronco,"
"Just watch," Reborn told him
They looked up to see Leon's mouth was moving something around. His body also seemed to be expanding as well, "He's about to spit out a new item, just for you, my students."
"New items?" Both students asked
"In Dino's case he spat out the Bucking Bronco whip and Enzo,"
"Enzo was Leon's baby?!"
"I think there's more important things to talk about, Tsuna," Harry reminded, wondering how the boy could get so off track
"I can't put up with your playtime forever. Let's call an end to this break and finish this." Luckily Ken was blocked by Leon's tendrils but he resolved to cut through them, "This is in the way!" Instead of cutting through the tendrils he cut Leon in half completely
"Leon!"
"Don't worry, Leon is a shape-shifter, more importantly something was shot upward." They looked up to see three items glowing in the air, "It looks like they made it out safe, this is your new item." The items that belonged to them fell on their faces
Tsuna looked at his gloves that said twenty-seven and Harry looked at his gloves that had eleven.
Both had incredulous expressions
"Mittens!?"
"How are we supposed to fight with these?" Harry asked the baby
"Who knows just put them on," Despite the knowing look in the baby's eye they did
"You were amusing to the end," Ken tried to stab Tsuna but he put up his gloves to block which surprisingly they did. Tsuna felt the hardness in his gloves and pulled out the thing that had saved him.
"A bullet!"
Harry checked his own gloves for something but found nothing at all.
"Hand It over Tsuna," Reborn asked
"I won't let you!" The baby jumped from Ken's swing and grabbed the bullet from Tsuna's hand before hitting the ground, "I've never seen this kind of bullet before, we'll just have to give it a try."
"Give it a try?!" Tsuna asked worried that Reborn would actually shoot him not knowing what would happen
"I won't let you!" Tsuna looked up to a see a storm of bomb headed his way
"Protego!" Harry blocked them all with a shield and stood in front of the two, "Do it now!" He shouted just as the shot rang out and the bombs connected with his shield. Once the smoke cleared he turned around to see Tsuna lying on the ground but not getting back up.
"What an anti-climatic end," Mukuro taunted
Harry was surrounded but he had to protect Tsuna's body
'It hurts…it really hurts…am I going to die now? It's alright…I did alright…right? I'm sorry everyone…Hari…but this is it for me.' Tsuna entire body was in pain and it did feel like he was going to die, 'I've had enough of being hurt…I've had enough of being scared.'
"These Clothes!"
Tsuna opened his eyes to see his mother picking around his room
"I keep telling him to take care of his things on his own."
'Mom?'
An image of Draco appeared checking his mail
"I accidentally got Sawada's test scores…" He opened the envelope despite it not being his own mail, "Hah, everyone was right he really is Dame-Tsuna judging by these scores.
'Why am I hearing Draco-san bad mouthing me?'
"It seems like it's the effects of the special bullet. What you're hearing is real-time rebukes to you from others." Reborn explained, somehow he knew what was happening
'Rebukes, why am I hearing rebukes at a time like this? Am I going to be told I'm Dame-Tsuna until the very end?
"Hi-hee! What was he thinking, charging into enemy headquarters was not the rational thing to do."
"Haha, Haru's crying!" Lambo teased the girl
"I-I'm not crying!" Despite her saying that tears were leaking from her eyes, "Haru's going to be a mafia boss's wife, I can't cry over something like this." She then got a tough look to her face, "Tsuna-san, do your best!"
The image turned to Draco talking to Ryohei at the hospital, "Aren't you worried about Sawada?" He asked as he leaned against the wall looking at the bandaged boy
"He is the strongest man I've ever crossed fists with, I won't forgive him if he comes back defeated."
"Don't repeat the same mistake I did, protect your family with your own hands." Lanchia took over
"I don't even think I have to voice my rebuke," Reborn commented
"I do!" Harry shouted trying his best to dodge the hits and punches coming from four different people, "If you-," A kick, "Don't get up-," A punch, "You'll always feel-," An uppercut, "Like dame-Tsuna!"
Tsuna's eyes snapped open
Harry felt a sudden burst of power come from him, it was as if Tsuna's magical core burst forth all at once
All of them stopped to look at Tsuna as his gloves changed and a bright orange flame appeared on his forehead. Harry also got a look at the boy's eyes which were so much different than his warm ones. They were warm but nothing like before, now they burned with passionate fire and determination
"If I don't defeat Mukuro I can't die in peace."
Harry had never seen the boy like this, this Tsuna was unnaturally calm while the other was usually hyper and worrisome. The sheer surprise made him fall back on his bum, "The flame seemed to have more might than when he fought Lanchi," Harry observed
"The rebuke bullet draws out Tsuna's calm fighting spirit. It's completely different from the dying will bullet. It's a bullet with a brand new power." Reborn replied, "I've only seen such a flame a few times before but never anything like this."
Mukuro laughed, "It seems to me that he's simply lost his will to fight. Either way he is no match for my skills." Mukuro's kanji turned two. Ken tried to get Tsuna from behind but Tsuna didn't put any effort into blocking him and elbowing him in the face. "That's not all," Mukuro used Chikusa's yo-yo to shoot out a needle shower that Harry was able to see was actually an illusion and luckily Tsuna saw it too.
Tsuna looked to the left, 'Over there!' He ran that direction and hit the real Chikusa in the face.
"I didn't even see him there," Harry blew out air, Tsuna was more aware than he was in this new mode.
"Impossible," Gokudera breathed
"He couldn't see through the path of hell's illusions earlier."
"This is an effect of the rebuke bullet, the blood of Vongola within Tsuna has awakened. Instead of removing external limiters and under pressure during a crisis, like the dying will bullet, the rebuke bullet removes all limiters from within by awakening the person's hidden awareness and at the same time it unlocks the limiters for his senses on the inside. Meaning this power only appears when one is succeeding the Vongola bloodline…hyper intuition."
"Hyper intuition?"
"The power to see through…all that the first Vongola was said to have. Tsuna has shown signs of it in the fight up to this point." Reborn crossed his arms and chuckled, "Though he hasn't mastered how to use those gloves yet."
"Kufufufu, you're amusing to no end, even though you can see through my attacks you cannot defeat me. I'm certain that you haven't forgotten that these are your friends' bodies. Can you raise your hand against them?" Mukuro used Gokudera to attack Tsuna and even with the boy's powers he couldn't dodge, Mukuro followed that up with attack from Bianchi
"Why isn't he dodging, he did before," Harry asked Reborn, his body was spent from fighting four people at once and without magic to boot.
"That's not it…their attacks aren't hitting him." Tsuna demonstrated by grabbing Gokudera's punch, "If he were to guard or evade that would staring Gokudera's or Bianchi's bodies. So he's catching and absorbing all of their attacks with his body in order to protect their bodies." Tsuna struck Gokudera right at the base of his neck disabling his body for a while, "He intuitively saw a way to stun their bodies' nervous systems."
"Intuitively…quit screwing around!" Bianchi moved to punch him but was tanked down as well. Tsuna put Gokudera's and Bianchi's bodies close to Harry and Reborn
"Reborn, Hari, take care of them,"
Harry whistled, "I knew you had it in you somewhere, Tsuna-kun,"
Tsuna stood and looked towards Mukuro's original body, "Come on out, Mukuro, you're alive aren't you?"
Harry groaned when he heard that tale tail laugh, "Why won't you just die and stay dead?" He asked rhetorically, all he wanted to do was go home, take a shower, and have a good nights rest.
"Have you noticed that there are one of my skills that I haven't used yet?"
"The fifth path, the path of humans," Reborn answered
"That's it, our world is the path of humans. In reality it is the most hideous and cruel underworld. I am not being ironic, that is why I hate this world and this skill." He reached up and grabbed his eye, "The path of humans is hideous," He squeezed his eye making a dark sinister black aura come from it. His hand turned blue as did a side of his face, "This is my most dangerous skill,"
Harry couldn't believe the others weren't choking on this aura, it was physically hard to breathe and his magic was working like crazy to give him his own protective aura.
"Can you see it, for warriors who emit an aura and fight, the size of the aura…" He launched at Tsuna with his trident making the boy use both hands to block that attack, "…Their strength!" Tsuna didn't see the punch Mukuro delivered to his abdomen
Harry moved to help him but was stopped by Reborn, "But he needs help," he wished Leon had given him a special bullet so he could join in the fight but with Mukuro being immune to magic and the best fighter alive he wouldn't be of any use.
He hated being useless
"He can handle himself," Reborn reasoned turning back to the fight
"How weak," Mukuro laughed, "I only intended on warming up,"
"It's gotta be…" Tsuna spoke up
"His aura!"
"It's brighter,"
"If that was all your power, I would've been disappointed," Tsuna had lit his gloves using the flames on his head.
"You're beginning to get it," Reborn commended, "The X-gloves are made from the same material as the dying will bullet. They were both born from Leon after all that's why it can light the dying will flame."
Mukuro still seemed confident, "Like a cat who puffs up its fur to seem bigger. Simply changing the shape of your aura is meaningless."
"The dying will flame isn't an aura." Tsuna corrected showing the flames on his gloves
"Oh…" Mukuro charged, "Then show me!" Tsuna grabbed his trident and Mukuro's eyes widened as his trident melted. He dodged the punch from Tsuna but felt his skin heat up
'The aura is emitting heat!'
"The difference in energy density between an aura and the dying will flame is too great. Unlike an aura which can only be seen by a select few people, the dying will flame has gained its own destructive properties. It's now a super condensed energy."
Harry looked down at his own gloves wondering what was wrong with them since they weren't like Tsuna's
"Then those gloves can burn as well?"
"That's not all," Tsuna replied before he ran at Mukuro who tried to swing at him with his trident but Tsuna disappeared. He reappeared behind Mukuro and the blue haired boy was barely able to bring up his weapon to block the hit.
"Aren't you done warming up yet?" Tsuna asked confidently
'Tsuna actually seems…cool…'
Mukuro chuckled before he started to boom in laughter, "What a happy miscalculation on my part. With your body, rather than scheming, I can attack the families directly and cause war within the mafia."
"So that's your goal,"
"Of course not, I am not so small-minded. I plan on possessing the body of every important person in the world. By controlling them, I will paint this world in a pure and beautiful darkness…a world war or is that to cliché?" Mukuro suddenly got serious, "But I will start with the mafia, eradicating the mafia."
"Why are you so obsessed with the mafia?" Reborn asked
"You hold a grudge against them?" Harry asked
"I don't have any intention of indulging you further, because, through my ultimate form, you will become mine. Behold," Mukuro sent out another illusion but Harry felt something off with this one
"There's something in it!" He shouted to late as the rock struck Tsuna in the head. Mukuro was up in the air faster than Tsuna could recover, "Tsuna!"
"I know!" Tsuna stood and disappeared before reappearing behind Mukuro in the air. With one hit he sent Mukruo shooting towards the ground before he landed safely
Mukuro looked up at him from the ground, "S-so t-this is Vongola Juudiame, the man…who…defeated me…" He said weakly, "Now finish me off, I choose death over being captured by the mafia." Tsuna turned away from him
"I can't do that,"
That was all Mukuro needed, he was able to catch Tsuna off guard by grabbing his wrists, "This softness is going to get you killed. I know that your odd abilities stem from the flames on your hands. If I can take ahold of your arms then you're nothing to fear. Why do you think I sent so many assassins after you? I planned to take over your body after you've fully drained out of your power." He kicked Tsuna far heading toward the wall, "Now see what you're heading towards!"
They turned to see that Mukuro had sent Tsuna flying in the direction of the trident spear that was put into a crack in the wall. Harry's wand was put down by Reborn, "Go, Tsuna, show him the real power of the X-gloves!"
"Let me do something, Reborn!"
The flames around Tsuna's gloves lit brighter and grew bigger as the boy used the fire like a rocket. He propelled himself from the trident spear using his flames and towards Mukuro.
"High speed maneuvering using the dying will flames as propulsion," Harry said amazed
With one hand Tsuna caught Mukuro's head, flames lit, and thrust himself and Mukuro into a wall. The flames seemed to purify Mukuro's body of the human path
"The dying will flame cleansed that ugly black aura." Mukuro actually seemed truly taken out now
"Please tell me that it's finally over," Harry pleaded
"It's over,"
That entire fight scene was just plain old fight and they weren't even good, I mean I wrote them I know they sucked
So I've got a few things to say
You saw Harry get gloves as well it's actually tied to his flame which you won't guess (If you do then two chapters in one day ((No Zept you can't answer because you already know)))
Haary's gloves don't tie into dying will bullets and you will see why in the Varia arc
Draco wasn't in here much but I'll do something for you guys by giving you a little DracoXRyohei next chapter…maybe.
Remember if you want Mpreg leave a review with yes or no and your opinion on the story.
HarryXHibari was shown but it's not the pairing
Zept don't leave any spoilers in you review please
