Heyz Everyone~

Happy to see me? xP

Just kidding... heheh... I decided to continue to the next chappie cause I'm just funky like that XD

But before I start, I would like to thank Vongola-Nicole, anime-lyric, 10th Squad 3rd Seat, Mukuro rokudo, The Sky's Guardians, HikariNoTenshi-San, jrlrock, Shiary, XxShiroumiArisaxX, Sherry Leblanc, SakuraHaruno9 and ALL of my readers for reading and reviewing! Of course, there are many more usernames I would like to list, but there was so many of you(so awesome~!) so I decided to just list the names of people that reviewed on April or after. However, really, I love you all for having patience and reading through my story!

To XxShiroumiArisaxX,

Tsuna lost his flame because when he was brought back from death, they disappeared for reasons unknown xD...

To 10th Squad 3rd Seat,

Ahh, sorry for that. I couldn't think of 'summoned' while I was writing... I think it avoided me on purpose... =]

So here it goes, enjoy!

Silence hung heavy over the air. Four figures frozen at the kiosk. Iemitsu glanced nervously at the short, suit-clad figure in front of him. He couldn't see his expression, but his raspy voice just a moment ago told him everything; THE Cold-blooded mafioso Reborn was in the verge of doing something very un-Reborn-ish and stupid. Like running to the enemy lady. Who knows what weapon she was holding in her pocket right now?

So as he took a step forward to reach for Reborn, Leon started to glow, shimmering in a myriad of colors, and soon morphed into a phone. As if it was a cue, Reborn snapped out of it and flipped open the screen.

"Hello?"

Frantic sounds of footsteps. Earsplitting crashes of explosions. Noises were so loud that even Iemitsu could hear it through the speaker. Although no words were spoken yet, that was enough explaining for both Reborn and Iemitsu.

"Reborn! Help! There are too many enemies here! We're outnumbered!"

Iemitsu frowned. The enemies were in front of him right now. But Dino was telling Reborn that there are enemies attacking Namimori.

They were being attacked by two Famiglias. Damn bigtime.

The man next to the woman chuckled. "Wow, they are fast. I thought it would take a few hours for them to reach the school."

"Them?" Reborn inquired sharply. His face was composed again. His expressions were carefully concealed behind his mask again.

The man removed his sunglasses casually and hung it on the rim of his breast pocket. His startlingly bright green eyes met Reborn's squarely. "Yep. Our allies. You'd better get to your men right now. Our allies are not easy people."

The man paused and glanced at the woman, Elietta. When she didn't show any hints of trying to stop him from talking, he shrugged and said, "Who knows, maybe the Generisi massacre the students, as well."

The Generisi...?

BANG! CRASH!

Gokudera looked on as Tsuna effortlessly dispatched four mafiosi at once. A lot of people could catch barest flashes of orange in his irises now and then, but shrugged the thought off. They knew better than anyone what happened to the Boss's flame powers.

Nonetheless, his actions were swift and smooth, even better than the others who have been using various firearms their whole life. Gokudera would be more than happy to have a seat on the ground and puppy-eyed-ly admire his boss right now, but he knew situation was grim.

In the midst of the whole chaos caused by the battle, Hibari and Ryohei somehow had joined them. However, Ryohei, being a boxer, had no chance of winning against bullets. Sure, he could have used Maximum Ingram, but the Vongola couldn't reveal their special powers to normal citizens. So he had to back away to the temporary fort set up by the CEDEF.

The School authorities were evacuating the students as quickly as possible; they were thinking that it was a terrorist attack.

Che, what would a terrorist find here? A peaceful town full of innocent people? Gokudera thought, irate, as a white van from a local broadcasting company pulled up on the road next to the school walls.

Thank goodness Gokudera had to use pistols as well. Showing people that you could pop a flame on your ring would be very disturbing to 21st century realistic people. Anyways, using the Flame Arrow itself was impossible because it could hurt the student body. Its damage range was too wide to use in a crowded area. Fortunately, him being involved with the mafia since he was a toddler made him gun-wise useful. He had taken classes while he was staying at his Famiglia.

Yamamoto was slicing through bullets, but he couldn't last long. He already had scratches and bloody gashes were the bullets had scrapes him. Thankfully, not one of them had impaled him yet. Or his sword, for that matter.

Tap, tap.

The Guardians and Tsuna quickly stepped into the music room for some cover and a short respite period. Tsuna motioned to his Guardians when they all finished panting. Everyone(except Hibari of course, who decided to lean on the wall the farthest from the group) gathered around him.

"I think we should lead the assault away from school. We're putting the students under too much risk here."

Right as he finished speaking, a small grunt of approval could be heard. Everyone whipped their heads around to the President of the Disciplinary Committee, but the said person just turned his gaze to the ceiling. Protective of the school, as always... Everyone thought.

"But where should we take the fight to?" Yamamoto frowned, and continued, "Anywhere would be dangerous for the townspeople..."

Tsuna seemed to ponder for a moment. Then he slapped his palm with his fists.

"We should enter the forest."

Tsuna-kun...

Kyoko thought with concern as a teacher ushered her with her classmates out of the school grounds. No one knew what was happening inside. Thick smoke and small debris particles obscured the school from the students' views. Nervous whispers rang among students.

Kyoko only catch some words, but it sounded bad. It seemed like the students were already thinking Tsuna was at the very base of this problem. There were some snickers, and someone joked about Tsuna being a drug lord. Kyoko winced. It wasn't far from the truth, was it?

She sighed and without thinking, put her hands inside her pocket. It was still March; the weather was chilly. She froze when she felt something smooth inside her pocket. It was her cellphone. "Maybe I can contact Tsuna-kun with this..."

She flipped open the phone, and realized she didn't check her message yet. She clicked "check message". Her eyes went wide.

"Hey, Kyoko-chan.

It's Tsuna. Err... I feel really uncomfortable writing this... hehe.

Well, the thing is, I'm leaving for Italy today. I have to attend school there to receive training.

I'm really sorry I'm telling you this now. The thing is, I didn't want to worry you.

I'm sure I'll be able to see you in a few years. After all, I already went through the basics with Reborn, didn't I? I hope you stay well and healthy, and I promise I'll be back to protect you.

I really love you, Kyoko."

Tsuna swerved from side to side. Metal bullets rained mercilessly on him. He didn't know who the attackers were, he could only guess that they were from the Cosa Nostra(real term for Mafia). Damn, I didn't think they would attack me here. Tsuna finally realized that Reborn was damn right about him being too naïve. However, he was focused on one thing now, and he didn't falter from moving frequently toward the forest.

Crap, they are fast. Yamomoto felt uneasy as he entered the forest. A creepy sense of deja-vu was beginning to engulf him. This reminded him too much about the fight with Byakuran. No, make it two. This whole situation reminded him too much about the two fights with Byakuran. Thankfully, he has been living his whole life here, and hopefully, he would be able to use his knowledge about the grounds against his enemies.

And another good news; now that the neighborhood was out of view, he would be able to use his flames.

This was going to start for real.

As soon as the two mafiosi's backs were turned on them as they left the airport, Elietta closed her eyes tiredly. Gionezzo looked at her worriedly, but it turned into alarm as Elietta swayed to the side and fell. Gionezzo caught her before she hit the ground. As he looked into her eyes, he realized the maroon color he loved had turn dull.

Wordlessly, Gionezzo put Elietta upright on the floor and helped her stand. She sighed deeply, closed her eyes, and leaned against a pillar close to where she was.

After a brief period of silence, Gionezzo decided to ask. "Who is he?"

Elietta's eyelids fluttered open at his question, but it closed again. Gionezzo felt confusion rolling off her in waves. Yes, Gionezzo was able to sense people's feelings. He couldn't read people's thoughts, but he could read their feelings. This was his special ability. Every member in the Vendetta Scura Famiglia each had a unique ability incomparable to the others.

Kyoko gripped her phone hard in her hands. A teardrop fell on the screen of her phone. Her classmates looked with surprise as she broke down, face covered by her hands. Hana hurried to her friend, and started to reassure her even though she didn't know what happened just now. Kyoko just cried harder and harder.

Hana could catch a few words through her sobs.

"Tsu-Tsuna-kun... leave... please don't... no!" Having no idea what her friend was saying, all Hana could do was to rub her friend's back in a comforting way.

BOOM!

It happened so suddenly. After a few seconds of silence, somewhere in the forest, something huge exploded. The impact of it was so immense that the ground shook, as if having a massive earthquake. Dust and debris flew everywhere, and in the confusion, the Guardians got seperated with each other. Trees fell to the ground, broken off at their stems, each squishing an unfortunate individual who happened to stand below it.

Yamamoto was right.

This was only the start.

Uwahh~! How did you all like it? I'm sorry it's short. I decided to update quickly, so with my sloooooooow writing skills, I couldn't write faster xD

I hope you enjoyed it, and REVIEW PLEASE!

Thanks for reading~ =D
