Pure Confusion

"W-What's happening-?!"

"June-Chan?!"

"Eh? Takeshi?"

The confused, and younger, June turned her head to see Gokudera and Yamamoto, her face brightening at the sight of her friends.

"You guys! You've been gone for a couple of days, now! Where did you go-?!"

"Damnit, woman! Now is not the time for that!"

The girl's blue eye blinked at the, before turning back to the blonde before her, just growing more confused.

"Well, I'm not quite sure what's going on, but it looks like you've got an issue. I'm not an unreasonable man…how about you tag her out."

"Tag me out? What-?"

"June-Chan!" She turned a little red when Yamamoto ran behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her backwards, towards the tree he had been near, while Gokudera just glared at the man before him. "Gokudera, we need to-!" "YOU need to back the hell off. I've already said my peace. I'm not teaming up with you, so get lost."

June watched the two, very confused by the matter at hand, but looked up as Yamamoto released his arms from around her waist. The look on his face made her shudder, as she looked into his, actually angry, brown eyes, as he glared at Gokudera.

"T-Takeshi…?"

"Fine. Go ahead. Do whatever you want."

"I intend to. Now, stay out of it."

"C'mon, June-Chan. Stay here with me, you'll be safe."

She didn't get to respond, besides from with a bit of a wince, as Yamamoto roughly grabbed her wrist and backed off from the area of battle, leaning himself against a tree and letting her wrist go.

"T-Takeshi, what's happening?"

"Don't worry, June-Chan. I'll make sure you're safe."

"That isn't explaining anything to me, Takeshi! What is this?! Where have you all been?! And who the fuck is that guy!"

As their battle started, June was pointing to the blonde haired man, Gamma. Neither really payed attention to the battle, much, especially Yamamoto.

June never knew that Yamamoto could hold some kind of grudge and it was terrifying…

"Takeshi, please-!"

"June-Chan, it's all really hard to explain."

"Try me, dumbass. If you know what's going on, I'm pretty sure I'll get it once you explain it."

Yamamoto would have laughed, but he noticed that June was constantly watching the battle, jumping in worry. He would have been more surprised if she wasn't shocked. One minute, she'll have been in the Namimori of ten years ago, the next she's thrown into the future with no idea what is going on.

He noticed her jump when Gokudera began firing his Storm attribute flames at Gamma, who blocked them with ease.

"Has Hayato always been able to do that? Because I've never seen it! Takeshi!"

As Gamma began summoning pool balls, Yamamoto just shut his eyes and sighed, not even watching as he attacked Gokudera.

"Takeshi! What are you doing, he's in trouble! Tch…if you won't, I will-!"

"No."

As she tried to pull out her gun, she felt Yamamoto take her hand into his, pulling it away from her belt as she turned to look at him angrily.

"He's going to get hurt!"

"He wants to do this alone. He won't accept help, even if you try."

"That doesn't mean-!"

"June!"

Hearing him drop the 'Chan' made her jump, especially since he was raising his voice quite angrily at her, gripping her hand tighter, almost painfully.

Gritting her teeth, she, just as angrily, tugged her hand away from his, looking back to the fight between the two, just in time for Gamma to attack, firing the balls around his feet, using electricity to shock the silver haired teen, hard enough to cut his body, forcing out spurts of blood from some parts of his body.

"H-Hayato!"

"June-Chan."

"B-But…"

She was surprised to see Gokudera standing back on his feet, just in time for Gamma to throw another round of those balls at him, only just giving him enough time to dodge these ones, but Gamma wasn't letting up on the assault, instantly firing another barrage at the Storm guardian.

"Takeshi, please-!"

He didn't need any encouragement. Except that he still looked utterly pissed off with Gokudera as he ran out and shoved the other guardian out of the way, except…he pushed him out of the way with his sword, basically attacking the guardian.

That wasn't what June meant when she wanted to help Gokudera…

"Guh…! W-What stunt are you pulling, baseball freak-!"

"I'm going to beat that rotten temper of yours into shape. The more I think about it, the angrier I get."

"T-Takeshi-!"

"June-Chan, I beg of you…Please, stay over there. I promise, I'll tell you what's going on soon enough. Right now, I have to sort this out…"

With the glare Yamamoto was giving the storm guardian, she wasn't going to argue with him. She didn't want that glare used against her. Though, when he did look at her, his glare softened a little, at least proving he wouldn't be mad at her.

"Before you met Tsuna, I heard you were one of those loner types that didn't trust anyone. It's because of that, that I can understand why you're so loyal to him. He was the first person to open your heart. But if you only open yourself up to him, you'll just put more pressure on him!"

"W-What are you talking about?! Fuck you!"

"A right-hand man is supposed to be somebody who can lead all the Guardians and be the man the boss relies on the most, right? You're supposed to pull us all together, but really you're turning them away! You don't have the right to call yourself Tsuna's right-hand man! Not doing such…such shit like that-!"

Nobody had ever really heard Yamamoto cuss before, so June's jaw dropped a little, while Gokudera gritted his teeth, being forced onto the side-lines.

"I'm tagging in! Sorry to keep you waiting!"

"Well, no issues, here. I kind of enjoyed the bickering. In my years, I've learnt to listen to my opponents. It makes sure I can remember them. But, now I'd better be rid of you, yes?"

June watched in horror, wishing she knew what was going on or even that she could fight back, but all she had was a simple handgun, against someone with weaponry that she knew nothing about!

What was she supposed to do?

Gamma charged up another barrage, but this time, the same thing happened. Except, Gokudera forcefully kicked Yamamoto out of the way, pulling both of them out of any danger.

"Do you want to die, dumbass?! If you did, the tenth would be devastated!"

"Hey, hey, you two…only one substitution per game, thank you. Both of you will die here, anyway. Then I'd gladly put the Snow guardian out of her misery."

"Now, that's pretty true…we probably would die, one after the other. But, that's if we fight one-on-one, like we've been doing. Hey, Spencer!"

"Oh, NOW you're calling me over?"

"Mostly to tell you to run for it and find someone. Avoid any enemies, okay?"

"…Well, if you INSIST. Tch…dumb asses…If you're finally working together, you better not go and get yourselves killed! I'll…I'll try find help!"

"Be careful, June-Chan!"

"I basically just said that to you-! I don't know why I bother…"

Ignoring the two, even though she was filled with worry, June ran off, heading out of the forested area, only looking back to see the backs of Yamamoto and Gokudera slowly disappearing.

Yes, she was worried sick about them both, but that's why she had to go find help. Even if it took her ages to find her way around-…no wait, this was Namimori Shrine? She was still in Namimori? Well, hell, that made this much easier…Kind of.

She didn't have much chance of even finding ANYONE. Well, except finding somebody she DIDN'T want to find.

"Hey, you-!"

"Oh, for fuck's sake-!"

Hearing an enemy voice, June quickly went into her usual mode; stealthing and running. Without a second thought, she speeded off, rushing up to the shrine, hoping she could find somewhere to hide as the enemy chased her down, staying close behind her.

Shit, Shit, Shit, SHIT-!

"Oof!"

Without really looking, she knocked into someone who, she prayed, wasn't an enemy.

"Oh…it's you. June Spencer."

Blinking her single eye, she ended up coming face-to-face with…a bird?

"Hibari! Hibari!"

"H-Hibari? E-Eh? Ah!"

As the bird fluttered around her head, almost like it recognized her, June looked into the cold stare of; "K-Kyoya!"

"…Hmp. Well, isn't this just a hassle. I'll make sure to bite you to death, later."

Staring down the enemy that had followed her, he stepped forward, menacingly and the enemy was barely given chance to realize who he was forced against, before he was knocked to the ground, Hibari standing over his body as the small, yellow bird flapped it's way over to sit in his hair.

As much as she didn't know what was going on (or why Hibari was stood in a fancy suit and looking even taller than usual), Hibari was now in front of her and her only hope.

"K-Kyoya, I-I…! I need your help! T-There's this fucking asshole fighting Takeshi and Hayato-!"

"Not interested. How long have you been here?"

"I don't even know what's going on, damnit! All I know is that they're in trouble! I needed to find help, you're here and-!"

"Quiet down, herbivore."

What was she supposed to say to this guy? All she knew about him was that he very much liked Namimori, so, this was just-! Oh…the answer was pretty much there, in front of her.

"K-Kyoya! If you don't care about Hayato or Takeshi, then…then what about the peace of Namimori-!"

"I told you to be quiet. You're putting me in a bad mood."

"When are you in a GOOD mood?"

"Tch…"

"H-Hey!"

Without another word, Hibari walked off, leaving June at the shrine, but he gave her a look that terrified her. Hibari was always a scary man, so June knew never to cross him. But…he was actually heading to where Gamma was fighting Gokudera and Yamamoto?

Either her trick had worked, or he was going there, anyway…probably the latter…
