Ch 19: A Painfully Horrifying Prediction
[ Parallel World ]
Tsuna sat up groggily. He felt that he had just woken up from a really long sleep.
" Well, it is rather long " A squeaky voice stated as if reading his mind. Then a feminine giggle followed.
Through hazy eyes Tsuna could make out two figures across from his bed.
"Rise 'n Shine!" The feminine voice chimed.
"Aria?" Tsuna called out as he rub the haziness away from his eyes.
"The one and only!" Aria chirped, as she drink her coffee.
"How are the travelers?" Tsuna instantly asked.
"Subdued" Aria simply answered. "Though Hibari Kyoya escaped. And Rokudo Mukuro is missing. He is not in Kokuyo Land, along with his underlings."
"That's better than nothing at all." Tsuna reassured. "And don't worry about Rokudo Mukuro. I'm sure he'll probably be on his way here right now."
He got out of bed and took a change of clothes from his cabinet and proceeded to the bathroom.
"What do you mean?" Reborn demanded an answer.
" How about Sasagawa Kyoko? " Tsuna asked from the bathroom. Completely ignoring the infant hitman's question.
A vein throbbed at Reborn's forehead. But chose to let it slide for once.
" Rescued " Was Reborn's answer.
"Eh? Did Reborn went there too?" Tsuna asked in childish wonder as his head peaked out of the door, toothbrush still in his mouth.
Reborn threw his Leon mallet over to the brunet's head. "Yes I did. Now finish your business there brat!"
"OW!" Tsuna whimpered. He took the toothbrush out of his mouth and growled at the infant hitman. "No need to be harsh, you stupid manfant!"

And faster than lightning, Tsuna closed the door to evade a bullet directed to his head.
Another giggle escaped the Sky Arcobaleno's lips before she called out happily to everyone over the door.
"He's awake~~"
On cue, heavy footsteps ascended the stairs and slammed the door harshly.
"Oi" Tsuna muttered annoyed as he stepped out from the bathroom. "Don't destroy my door, bastard"
"You idiot brother! You fucking made kaa-san worry!" Ieyasu shouted, but it was obvious that he was relieved to see his twin fine.
"Maa~ No need to cry, lil' bro" Tsuna teased. He smirked as he saw his brother slightly flushed and the blond's expression turned in to a scowl.
"Shut up!" Ieyasu hissed.
"Aww.. Iey-kun is embarrassed" Tsuna cooed and everyone laughed.
"TSUNA-NII !"Two voices shouted and then I-pin and Fuuta came barreling through and jumped at the brunet. Tsuna chuckled at their behavior and ruffled their hair affectionately.
He glanced at the people who now gathered in his room. Reborn, Aria, the Arcobalenos, his guardians, Ieyasu, I-pin, Fuuta, Bianchi and Maman. He smiled at that.
He caught the clouded gaze of Aria from the corner of his eyes. He frowned when realized that the Sky Arcobaleno is having a vision.
He sighed and ushered the kids out of the room with Nana. He returned back and ask the Sun Arcobaleno, "where's my Lightning Guardian?"
And true to his words, Gamma wasn't there with them.
Reborn just sipped on his espresso before answering. "Guard Duty"
Tsuna raised a brow in confusion before nodding in understanding.
By now, Aria's gaze refocused on them. Tears streaming down her cheeks as she stared at Tsuna with a pained expression.
Without another word, Tsuna instructed everyone (Arcobaleno & Mare) to wait with the Parallel World Guardians. Saying that he'll take care of Hibari and Mukuro by himself.
All of a sudden, Reborn kicked Ieyasu on the head saying to take after his brother and look for possible guardians already.
Tsuna chuckled and suggested that he knows a bunch of people who could be Ieyasu's guardians.
"Who?" Reborn asked.
Tsuna gave a mysterious smile before saying "You'll see."
With that, everyone moved out and went to their own destinations with Tsuna heading for Namimori Middle School.

[ Original World ]
Yuni sat on the ground once the attack seized... again. There was no one else left of her subordinates aside from the former Arcobalenos.
Suddenly, a vision of the near future flashed in her mind.
It was bright. But it wasn't the sun spreading her light everywhere, but fire.
Blazing fire spread everywhere. The ground, the walls and the dead bodies of her subordinates were set in a blaze. Even the skies was painted red mixed with the darkness.
As the blazing mansion slowly crumble down, a figure starts to emerge behind the flames carrying another figure in his arms.
The first figure's silver hair fluttered with the wind, exposing his sorrow-filled green eyes and tear-stained cheeks.
The next figure in his arms dangled, a seeming lifeless body. One gloved hand swaying in every move the silver head made. Face hidden under brown locks.
As her vision ended, she cried; alarming her remaining companions.
There is no need to see who they were, the insignia on the dead body's glove was enough to confirm her thoughts.
It was the Vongola X-Gloves. And there is only one who posses them.
Vongola Decimo, Sawada Tsunayoshi.
