Chapter Nine

Tsuna was half asleep, knowing he was being carried by someone as he watched Tokyo burn in a haze. It was so warm and bright, yet he could hear people screaming and crying before he closed his eyes, the crystallized sphere in his hands. He ignored it as he was put in a car and then drove off back to the place Tsuna dreaded going back to.

"Well, you done an alright job Sawada Tsunayoshi. I won't harm Hibari Kyoya for now-" the head suddenly stopped in place, noting that the base that was miles away from anything was alight and in flames. He could see scientists running out of the building in panic, before he saw Hibari kneeling on the ground, Fong behind him and checking over burns. "Looks like they caused this... but I wonder what they used to cause such a blaze..."

Tsuna was wide-eyed at this point and staring out the window, looking as Hibari raised his head and stared at the car with a cold gaze before he flinched back. With black tinted windows, it was hard to tell who was sitting inside of the vehicle. Those words his mother told him years ago rung in his head again.

"Humans are selfish creatures. All they will want to do is hurt us. You can go to any other planet, just not that one."

Tsuna didn't like the fact that every time he was uncertain, those words would always ring in his head, as if telling him that he had made a mistake- by trusting Hibari, Fong and those really nice kids in the school. Perhaps they were all selfish, considering some of them just made him blow up an entire city without any form of reasoning.

He continued to look out the window, before he tried to get out, failing since they had locked the doors from the inside. He looked back at one of the guards, who was giving him a smirk that showed that he actually enjoyed watching him get distraught. He pressed against the window, still looking out and nibbling at his lip.

"Kyoya-san..." tired honey-brown eyes were watching before flickering slightly when he saw the man everyone cried 'boss' and flinched when Fong stood in front of Hibari. It was obvious Hibari was hurt, why else wouldn't he have made a move. Tsuna looked at the guard, not liking the leering look her was getting before his eyes glowed a soft orange.

"Good night."

There was a thud, and Tsuna's eyes went back brown as he stared at the guard now leaning against one of the doors, fast asleep. Why that thought never came to him before was a mystery actually, but it didn't matter now. He took his seatbelt off and then crawled into the front of the car, before slipping out the door that was still open and then hiding behind it as he peeked over.

He could see Fong in a fist-to-fist fight with the boss and when he looked at Hibari, he froze in place. He could see the crystals he had used to protect Hibari previously still stuck in his hair. What if... when he was blowing up Tokyo... he accidentally set the crystal off in his hair? It would explain quite a bit of the burns on him... he paused when he saw Hibari's head raise, but then ducked and then crawled off silently before he was sure he was out of sight, then got to his feet and then ran.

Giotto's heart was glowing in his hands, as if knowing he was upset, before settling down, not having enough charge to do much other than shimmer. Tsuna ignored it and continued to run. Run far away. He was tired, so the easiest place to go right now would be a place with lots of water. He moved through trees, flinching when branches caught on his face and scratched it, the blood on the verge of spilling before turning to crystal once more.

He had to get out of here, before he got hurt to the point that he crystallized fully.

He needed... water...


Hibari was now up on his feet, running past Fong who was still proving to be a challenge to the head, ignoring them as Fong spoke lowly.

"You're a sick man. You hurt a child and made him do something he didn't want to do," his eyes narrowed then. "You're all disgusting beings. You hurt a child and imprisoned your own family since the ones that protected the boy were considered a threat? At least the people who tried to protect him have hearts."

"If you think that was bad, you know nothing. Do you want to know a secret?" Fong's brow furrowed, before he jumped back when he heard crazed laughter. "You remember Alaude, don't you?"

"Of course I do. He was my boss previously," Fong grew suspicious when the head grinned widely.

"Well Alaude... he was like you and Kyoya. He didn't want to hurt that precious star Giotto. So want to know what I did? I sent Giotto off to his death, so when Alaude was broken, I killed him off as he slept."

Fong looked irritated at that. Alaude was someone he looked up to with admiration, as did many, but then those people changed their views when the new head was put in place. Everything changed when the new head came along. In fact...

Fong could remember the Hibari family used to be quite a reasonable Yakuza. They were different from the others, who only wanted money and fame. He could remember that Alaude wanted to keep everything in order, to keep reasonable peace and keep everything quiet. He never done anything that would upset people. He made things better.

That was why Giotto trusted humans. Humans seemed like odd creatures to him, yet he grew to trust them since he was in the care of Alaude, but...

That trust ended up killing him in the end.

Fong narrowed his eyes and then glanced over the heads shoulder, noting Hibari was gone before he took a stance.

"Well, I think you're no longer entitled to call yourself head."

"And I think you're no longer entitled to live, since I told you something I shouldn't have."


Hibari ran through the woods, following a trail of crystals littering the ground while picking them up, one by one, before he stopped and looked up, seeing a vast lake that was sparkling blue. The crystals stopped right at the edge, causing Hibari to pause and then look round himself, kneeling down to put his hand in the water, expecting it to be cold-

Yet it was so warm. He frowned and then called out softly.

"Tsunayoshi?" he got no response, causing him to sigh as he dipped his limps into the water, wincing slightly since the burns covering him reacted to it before getting covered in crystal. "Tsunayoshi, I know you're here."

He sat in the water, waiting for a response, yet nothing happened. He stared at the glittering water, looking further, yet eventually its dark depth didn't allow him to see anything. He frowned. He knew Tsuna was there, since no water a this time of year should even be remotely warm. He sat, before he spoke out softly.

"Tsunayoshi, if you're listening, I'll be at that apartment. No one should be able to hurt you now," he then got to his feet and then sighed softly. "I can understand... if you no longer trust anyone. This was never supposed to happen in the first place. I blame the fact that I live with such a family."

He then stepped out the water, noticing the amount of oddly light crystal sticking to him, glowing brightly before falling off him and turning into a soft glowing sphere, sitting right there for him to pick up.

"See you soon... Tsunayoshi."

And then he left, holding the glowing ball in his hands before he sighed. He had no clue if Tsuna would even come back now. He could only hope that he would.


A/N: Please say you read this note, because if you didn't then no one is going to understand why I won't be updating as frequently as I usually do.
Starting from today, I'm going to be an assistant in school to help younger kids with art. I know, I'm in high school myself, so I was surprised when they asked if I could help them- so i agreed to it.
So now I'll be doing my writing for half my day instead of my full day. The rest of the time I'll be learning and helping with art, so maybe I'll be able to draw some epic pictures for my stories .
So yeah... Might not be updating as much now. But I will continue my stories, like I always do.
High chance the last chapter to this storie will be tomorrow, sadly.
