Chapter 10

WELCOME TO THE LIGHTNING NATION

Today, the sun was shining ever so brightly in the sky's horizon. A sign of good weather as the big ship continued to soar so gracefully, hitting the clouds on its way as it slowly reached its final destination.

Inside the ship, there were a total of 50 rooms. There were 10 private areas, 20 for semi-private and the last 20 rooms for commoner areas. The rooms for the private area were located in the upper section of the ship. It was designed for rich people that were on board, obviously because of its luxurious designs. Every room had its own comfort room, the walls were painted white, and every area had a red carpet along with expensive furniture such as the beds, cabinets, and chandeliers. Of course, the dining area for the private area occupants was beautifully arranged and the food that they were served was top class.

Just below the private areas were the semi-private rooms. They were usually occupied by people with normal jobs with a little higher salary per month. The design of the rooms were the same as the rooms above, just remove the red carpets and expensive things and replace it with the not so expensive furniture. For their comfort rooms, it was located outside their rooms while the dining area was shared by the occupants of the semi-private and commoners room occupants.

The lowest floor inside the ship was the commoners' rooms and was usually occupied by normal people with normal jobs with a not so high, but not so low salary. The rooms were actually okay because the cleanliness was still done for them, the walls were purely wood and the beds per room were double decked and the comfort rooms were the same as the semi-private rooms.

And that's how the rooms of the ships were divided.

All of the people on board were enjoying the temporary peaceful environment inside their respective rooms, except for one room occupied at the commoners' area.

"Close your eyes." the baby commanded his brunet student, signaling the beginning of their first meditation session.

"Free your mind."

'Free my mind.'

"And focus."

'Focus.'

"Feel and imagine your aura flowing freely inside your body just like calm water."

'Feel and imagine.'

The brunet sat with his legs crossed, trying his best to focus with the upper part of his body, completely relaxed while his eyes were completely shut.

'Drops? Hmm...I can actually feel and even hear something.'

He continued to concentrate, but his mind was loss in the moment, trying to figure out why he felt different.

"Slowly, sense your own energy as it comes out of your body.

'I feel cold, or rather soaked...Is this energy flowing inside me?'

While he tried to understand the sensation he was feeling, he heard a faint chuckle, obviously coming from his baby tutor.

'Hmm...Something's not right here.'

The brunet slowly opened his eyes and saw water running from a mysterious green hose…

"R-Reborn!"

The baby hitman, wearing white clothing suitable for yoga, was currently holding the said hose as the brunet concluded that Leon was definitely shape shifted into a hose.

"You're not supposed to open your eyes while meditating, Dame-Tsuna."

Tsuna secretly complained in his thoughts and frowned.

'Does meditating require getting wet? More importantly...'

"What's with that paper?" The curious brunet pointed at a piece of paper Reborn was holding in his left hand.

"A note from my friend, Fon. It's a guide for your meditation, Dame-Tsuna."

Tsuna stole the said paper and decided to read it in his mind. His face turned into a twitched while looking at the piece of paper he is holding.

"Is this…?"

'Cheat notes...'

"You see, meditation is not my forte." Reborn pouted while acting like a child.

'Next time, do not attempt to teach me if you have no idea what you're doing.'

He sweat dropped and decided to change his clothes or else he would catch a cold. He was about to remove his upper clothes when he saw Reborn, watching him intently. His face became red, but then shook his head as he opened his mouth to speak.

"Umm, R-Reborn? Could you t-turn away for a while? I-I'm kind of distracted, you see."

The baby smirked mischievously, but then decided to look away for a moment.

"1 minute."

Tsuna knew what Reborn meant and what he needed to do. He had to change his clothes as fast as he can before the time Reborn allotted was consumed. Without further interruptions, Tsuna quickly removed all of his soaked clothes while grabbing his new clothes.

30 seconds left.

Tsuna already finished putting his brown pants on before leaving his upper body exposed and grabbed his top, continuing to change in a fast manner.

And- Oh!

The brunet collapsed in tiredness, he just finished putting on his plain white shirt.

'You perverted baby.' the brunet thought while he sighed deeply and shrugged his shoulder a bit.

Reborn, however, grinned and stared at the brunet with an 'I know what you are thinking' expression and was quite amused by his student's thoughts about him right now.

"I have my reasons." Reborn told the brunet as he pointed at the wooden window inside their room.

Tsuna went closer at the window, only to see the sky slowly getting darker as he heard a distant rumble of thunder. Unable to move from where he was standing, he continued to observe the sky which had completely darkened and a sudden flash of lightning frightened him followed by a very loud roar. He quickly closed the windows and covered it with the red curtain. He grabbed his jacket and immediately dashed outside the room, unable to sense his tutor jump on his shoulder as he made his way outside the ship, only to see the upcoming view of their destination.

'This is-'

"The Lightning nation."

A large, wide and futuristic city surrounded by tall and strong walls welcomed his vision. The area was so bright thanks to the lights from the tall buildings, houses and from the oval shaped, flying cars floating around the whole city. The place was very prosperous unlike his home town, Namimori, where they do not have any flying cars, but it still has a calming sense, the feeling that Tsuna could not sense in the lightning city. Most of the buildings were beautifully made with their own distinct features, like a building in the shape of a heart, or maybe a boat and even a human face. However, his attention was attracted into one building. It was the tallest building located at the centre of the city and had a spherical shape surrounded by a green and powerful lightning. He didn't really know why he was drawn to it, probably because of the strong lightning flames surrounding the entire building.

"That is the main power plant of the city, Tsuna." Reborn oriented the brunet since he noticed that his student couldn't get his eyes off the said building. "That is also where you will deliver the package, but we won't do that." He continued, leaving the brunet confused and scared at the same time.

Tsuna was confused…

If they won't deliver the package then, why? Why would they try and enter inside the Lightning nation and risk their lives?

And scared…

Since they were dealing with Bermuda, the leader of the Night nation and the most dangerous person living at their current time.

"Are you sure about that, Reborn? It's Bermuda-"

"Ah. You will have a different mission, which is finding the Vongola guardians, that's why we're here right now."

After Reborn explained, Tsuna was still confused, more confused than before.

'Finding the guardians? What does it have to do with me? It's the Vongola's 10th heir who should be doing this job!' the brunet thought as he concluded to himself that the Vongola might be slacking off somewhere or not doing his mission. 'That must be it!'

Reborn laughed inside as he read his student's mind once again. 'He's not actually slacking off, he's just complaining.' he thought.

Tsuna released a deep sigh and decided to follow Reborn for now to increase his percentage of survival. He looked up at the dark sky, observing the small flashes of lightning with small thunder roars as the ship successfully landed at the port.

"Let's go, Tsuna." The brunet nodded, now wearing his bag pack with the violin case hanging on his left side as he took his first step inside the Lightning nation.


Meanwhile, Ieyoshi and Lal arrived at the Rain nation.

"This is the Rain nation right?" the blond haired teen asked Lal Mirch as the baby only nodded in return.

"Then why does the land looked dry and cracked, like there is lack of water in this area?" Ieyoshi wondered as he scanned their surroundings while they headed inside Rain nation territory.

"It was rumored that the rain from this area is summoned through the rain citizens' resolve. It seems that they have lost their will to fight."

Lal stared at Ieyoshi before continuing, "Of course your rain guardian is included if he's here."

Lal's statement kind of worried Ieyoshi for a bit. For a person to lose his will to live was not a good sign for his rain guardian. But then he thought that he can't interfere with his guardian's decision. It's his life after all.

'Maybe looking after him would be waste of time.'

"Let's just find for a place to settle down first." the blond teen said lazily.


BACK AT THE LIGHTNING NATION

Tsuna, with Reborn on top of his head, was currently strolling as they headed towards the power plant and at the same time, observing inside at the lively city. The citizens were interacting with each other as if they can't see the patrolling Night guards, a factor that the people of Namimori lacked. The business industry was not neglected. Instead it continued to grow and develop.

'It seems like they weren't even conquered by the Night nation.' the brunet thought, but then a small takoyaki stand caught his attention and its owner was located beside a restaurant before an intersection. He saw the owner of the stand getting dragged cruelly by the Night guards because he was unable to pay his taxes at the desired date. They beat up the poor man as he begged for someone to save him, but he was ignored.

"Please...anyone...help..." The owner's quivering voice echoed through the area and still, the citizens didn't budge. But for Tsuna, the voice stayed inside his mind as he clenched his fists, wanting to help him.

"It would be wise not to interrupt, Tsuna." Reborn said to his worried student like he was about to rush and save the man.

Reborn was right and Tsuna knew it, but still he couldn't help it.

Trying to control his emotions, he shut his eyes and breathed deeply in order to restrain himself.

Tsuna finally realized.

The Lightning nation citizens were all running away from a fact. The fact that their lives were being controlled by someone. But they wanted to live normally, so they tried to ignore these horrible situations and focus on their own lives, only following the Night nation's demands.

But is this worth it?

To ignore the people while they were being punished or the worst case be killed for violating or just not paying their overpriced taxes on time.

They should not be satisfied with this kind of life.

The brunet slowly opened his eyes. Thankfully the beating session had already ended as they left the poor man covered in bruises lay on the street. He hurriedly went to the poor man and helped the said man into a sitting position while leaning on the wall.

"I'm sorry, mister. I wasn't able to help you." The brunet was the first one to utter.

"I'm alright now, kid, so don't worry about me." the man said as he coughed a little and stared at the brunet's wide caramel eyes which were full of hope.

"You've got good eyes, kid. Do not lose that no matter what." The man smiled warmly at the brunet.

Tsuna also smiled in return and nodded as he offered him a handkerchief. He stayed there for a while and then decided to leave when he could assess that the man was already free and could be on his own. He waved for the last time before he started to head to their destination once again.


He continued to walk, trying his best to ignore the delicious smell of the food as he passed by different establishments. He was able to at first, until he heard his stomach grumble.

"Ugh...Can we eat first?" the brunet said lifelessly as he held his stomach.

"I have no choice. I can't afford dragging my student all the way."

And so they went to a food stand and buy some corn. The brunet happily grabbed his wallet from his pocket when a small figure unexpectedly snatched his wallet and ran to the other side of the road.

"EHHHHH?" The brunet looked at the fading small figure that just snatched his wallet as he tried to process what was happening right now.

Wallet.

Snatched.

No money.

NO FOOD!

HIIEE!

Tsuna, despite being hungry, felt a sudden adrenaline rush and started to pursue the figure while Reborn sat comfortably on top of his head, holding the brunet's hair to keep himself on.

The figure he was following blended in the area full of people, but that didn't stop him from running as he took a little detour, now relying on his intuition to lead the way. His brown eyes turned into a shade of amber colour, but nobody noticed since he didn't mind the people calling for his attention while he passed by at a fast pace. He, with his fixed expression, was getting more desperate to capture the thief who stole his wallet as he felt himself get in close proximity to his target. And just after he turned into the right corner he finally saw the small figure that looked composed while he walked with his wallet.

'Finally!'

The brunet still didn't let his guard down as he tried to conceal his presence while the small figure approaching without a sound to as his features became clearly visible. A child like Reborn with black, braided hair and dressed in red Chinese clothing.

'He doesn't look like a bad person.' the brunet thought, but he still needed his wallet back or else he would faint from hunger later. His hands moved quickly and successfully took his wallet while the culprit didn't notice and happily tightened his grip so that he wouldn't lose it again. He put it inside his pocket and then decided to tap the shoulder of the small person and smiled.

"It's not good to steal other people's belongings, neh?"

The baby looked at the brunet and was surprisingly calm for someone who just got caught for stealing an item.

"You do have an interesting apprentice, Reborn." the baby spoke and his lips curved into a smile.

"Ciaossu, Fon."

'Eh? They know each other? Wait, Fon...Where did I hear that name before?'

"May I know your name young one?"

Tsuna suddenly snapped from his thoughts as he heard Fon ask for his name.

"Sawada Tsunayoshi. Nice to meet you, Fon-san" He bowed respectfully and then noticed another familiar small figure coming their way.

"Kora, Fon! Where have you been?" The brunet watched the other baby become aware of their presence as the baby hurriedly came to them.

"So you've found them, huh?"

"It's nice to see you again, Colonello-san."

"Do you enjoy following me, Colonello?" Reborn jumped from the brunet's head as they began their head butting/nice to see you again greeting.

Tsuna sweat dropped as he watched the two babies' style of greeting.

"They're still the same." Fon, in his composed state, chuckled and then observed the brunet for a while.

'What is so special about Tsunayoshi that Reborn chose him as his student?' Fon's thought didn't seem to remove itself from his mind. 'And it seems that Colonello also wants to teach him.'

"Neh, Fon-san, would you like have a seat on my shoulders? You must be tired from running, right?"

Fon broke out of his deep thoughts and gazed at the brunet as he noticed that the aura surrounding the teen was warm and welcoming. Even to him, after he just stole his wallet, the teen was still worried for his sake. He grinned and accepted the teen's offer as he hopped onto the brunet's shoulder.

'What a delightful sensation.'

Fon concluded that the brunet was a sky born citizen since most of the people he knew with the same vibe were all known as sky flame users and citizens.

'But this boy should be careful or the others will use his kindness and might destroy him in the end.'

"Tsunayoshi, I believe you're feeling hungry right now."

'Eh?'

"I totally forgot!" The brunet deadpanned as his stomach began grumbling again.

"I suggest you eat since you got your wallet back." Then Fon pointed at a ramen stand. The brunet saw it and immediately went to buy ramen to satisfy his hunger, leaving the other two babies.

"They'll follow us after their done, Tsunayoshi. No worries." The brunet nodded as he bought 4 ramen and start eating his food with lightning speed, not minding the people who were looking at him. He just wanted to eat his hot and delicious ramen.

'He does look hungry.' Fon thought as he calmly ate his food and observed his fellow Arcobaleno who just came from their greeting session and started eating as well.


While the four of them were eating their warm and delicious ramen, the owner came closer to the brunet and muttered "Are they your little brothers by chance?" Tsuna, who was enjoying his food, suddenly stopped eating and thought for a moment before nodding.

"It must be difficult to be a baby sitter, huh?"

"H-Hai." He agreed while he reminisced the time when Reborn was training him, the first time he met Colonello and now Fon, who made him run around town. "It was really hard." Both of them nodded like they understood what it really felt.

'I hope Fon would be different from those two.


Time skip

After eating, they proceed to their destination with Tsuna, who now had 3 babies with him. He was listening to their conversation since they were whispering about something and he knew was important. However, the only words that he was able to hear were Vongola, Rain nation and search.

'Maybe the prince is looking for his guardians in the Rain nation?'

And an idea suddenly popped into his mind. The moment that he meets the sky prince, he would be sure that the Arcobaleno would be with him since it's their job given by the late King Giotto, and he would be able to return home in no time while he waits for them to defeat the Night nation.

He nodded to his idea, but then he remembered the scene he saw with the owner of the takoyaki stand and the people ignoring him.

Unconsciously, he stopped walking and realized that what he just thought as he stared solemnly at the dark sky.

'I'm just like them, a selfish person. But what can I do? I'm still a weak and a cowardly person. And I am just Dame-Tsuna.'

"You are Sawada Tsunayoshi." The baby hitman suddenly spoke as the brunet snapped out of his thoughts and saw the 3 babies staring at him. 'How long were they staring at me?'

"You look pitiful right now, Tsuna." Colonello spoke up.

'I know, Colonello. But I can't help it.'

"You just have to be yourself, Tsunayoshi." Fon also verbalized his opinion with calm vibes.

'Fon-san.'

"Fon is right, Tsuna. Stop acting like a hero." Reborn came closer and stared at his student.

"Just do what you want to do."

'What I want to do?'

The brunet stared with his wide caramel brown eyes, still staring at his tutor's black onyx eyes and then his lips slowly curved into a smile.

"I just wanted to protect."

'That's right, Tsunayoshi Vongola. Just be yourself.' Reborn thought and was unable to hide his smile as the three observed this, making them laugh.

"I-I thought smiling faced didn't suit you, R-Reborn!" The brunet, now with his cheerful side back, continued to laugh, unable to sense his tutor's killing aura.

Tsuna's pure sky flames ignited strongly the moment he stated his resolve, but it was concealed thanks to the silver ring.

However, two people were able to sense the brunet's flame in a faraway area from the Lightning nation.

"This sensation?" The shadowy figure clapped her hands happily and went closer to the other shadowy figure.

"No doubt, it's a pure sky flame." The other shadowy figure confirmed the first one's suspicions as he grabbed something small and rectangular and ate it.

"So are we going to summon it now?" The first figure talked again.

"It's not time yet. We'll wait until he gathers all of his guardians."
