Chapter 25
I'm so sorry, I totally forgot to list the song from last chapter that got Harry and Draco so hyped up, it was either Doubt by Blue Stahli or Holy Thunderforce by Rhapsody. Doubt has an amazing KHR AMV that I would love to give the link to anyone, Holy Thunderforce is a Fairy Tail amv that's pretty fast paced.
This chapter is going to be kind of choppy because you will need the events in Italy to learn more insight about the events happening in Japan. If you already know then you can probably skip what happens in Italy.
Summary: The Dark Lord returns and before he could even get to Harry, Dumbledore sends the boy away with a guard to Japan thinking Voldemort would never look for him there. Harry, along with his guard, meets the mafia's greatest hitman.
Warning: Yaoi
-Last time-
"How are her organs?" Tsuna asked
"Chrome's organs are functioning properly, thanks to Mukuro's powerful illusions."
"She gets tired so easily," Ken scoffed at her sleeping body, "This is why humans are so pathetic,"
They looked at him with an incredulous look, 'Aren't you human too?'
Chikusa walked away, "Let's go, Ken,"
"Right," The animal boy said following him
"A-are you abandoning her?!"
"When she wakes up, she'll be able to walk. I don't plan on giving that girl my attention, she's not Mukuro-san, after all."
"Don't feel sympathy for him," Reborn said at seeing the look on Tsuna's face, "You can't forget everything that Mukuro's done up to now." The boy didn't know what to think now he saw the condition Mukuro was in
"Each side has four rings,"
"So we will continue the conflict,"
"Tomorrow is the long awaited final battle between Guardians, the match between the Guardians of Cloud."
"It's finally Hibari's turn."
-Currently-
"You know everyone's at the hospital asking Dino about Hibari," Draco said, it was to be expected of course, if Hibari lost then they would all lose. Dino was the last person to be seen with Hibari so of course the man would know where the boy was.
"I know that of course," Harry said, cracking the eggs and placing them in the bowl with the rest of the ingredients, "The perv was Hibari's teacher so he would know his state."
"Why aren't you?" Draco asked curiously as he leaned against the kitchen door
"Why should I be?" Harry shot back
"Well it's just that Hibari's your friend and tonight he's going against that Guy so I thought you would want to know if he's strong enough to survive." Harry simply scoffed as he put the batter into the over
"You fail to understand that there's no way Hibari's going to lose the battle."
"And how are you so positive?"
Harry shrugged, "A hunch, but if it makes you feel better Draco we could go to the hospital and ask Dino."
"Only reason I would possibly go to see the state of Hibari is to see the perv hit on you again." Draco walked out of the kitchen and the front door.
Harry put a charm on the oven that would take the cookies out upon completion as he took off his apron and followed Draco, "Of course, Draco," The both of them apparated to the front of the hospital and walked inside to see the rest of the family, plus Dino, already inside. Except the three idiots were asleep on the couches
"Let me guess, you're here to ask about Hibari?" Dino asked him
Harry shrugged once more, "You caught me," Like he had said to Draco, he wasn't really all that worried about the last Guardian battle. He was just wondering when he would have to fight because he would be pissed if he had let Draco kick his ass for nothing.
"As his home tutor, not even I have anything more to say to him," Dino relieved Tsuna's worries
"I feel relieved, and all of a sudden I'm a little sleepy." Tsuna yawned
"You have to train!" They looked towards the window to see Reborn in a little ninja outfit having Leon as a headband, "We're going to complete the Zero point breakthrough."
"What are you talking about, tonight's battle is going to decide everything, is there any reason for me to train?"
There were groans coming from the couch's as the two of the three boys were awoken from their slumber, "Let me sleep a little longer," Draco patted the boy's head in order to make him stay asleep.
"It's because this is the last match, let them do all the cheering." Reborn told him
"Why?"
"What are you going to do if the worst happens?" Reborn asked, leaving a tense air in the room
Oregano and her ally ran down a brick corridor pointing their guns down every corner in order to not be surprisingly shot, "How are things over there, Oregano?"
"No good; no one's here,"
"Not here either," Lal Milch joined them as they continued their search for Iemitsu, "I never thought we'd have to charge in again. Iemitsu, where are you, wasting time like this?" Lal asked to no one in particular
"It's the master, if we keep fighting, he'll pop out."
Oregano stopped her running at a huge steel door to her right, "What's this room?" She hacked the lock system and the doors parted, they walked inside what seemed to have been a laboratory but there was no one inside, "What is this?" Every machine was off line and had been collecting dust which meant that this had been down here for awhile
The man had grabbed a journal and saw that every page had been blacked out. He got special glasses that allowed someone to see through the black out, to him they looked like a blue print, "This is a report on former Italian military weapons."
"The military? Why is that here?" Oregano asked
"I thought it was just a rumor, I heard that the mafia purchased a project which the Italian military tried to cover up after the war." He informed
"Then this facility was-,"
"Still active, until a few days ago,"
"Oi," They looked towards Lal who had managed to get a laptop to work, "It seems like the weapon that was made here was delivered to Varia." She said
"What was Kyuudiame thinking, for what does he intend to use this kind of thing?" She looked at the huge blue print that depicted a robot greater than any man and had breathing tubes on its face.
Tsuna's flame dissipated after that last failed attempt, "Tsuna, are you alright?" Harry asked as his own flame went out. Reborn had said that instead of Tsuna battling Basil, he would battle Harry. Harry had bet that it was more of a bet between Draco and Reborn which one of their students would win but Harry was just trying to get the boy to learn this Zero Point breakthrough Reborn was talking about.
"If you had messed up, you could have died, Baka Tsuna," Reborn kicked the boy in the chin, "You were thinking about something else, weren't you?"
"Itai, don't kick me while I'm down, Reborn," Tsuna cried
"Let's continue,"
"We're still going to? If we don't hurry, Hibari's-san's match will start!" Tsuna protested
"Leave Hibari's match to Yamamoto and Gokudera. You should concentrate on completing this technique," Reborn said
"But why?! Are you serious?!" Tsuna asked in disbelief, he didn't know why Reborn wouldn't let him go to Hibari's match.
"I am serious," Indeed his tone was grave
"Listen up, you guys, we're going to win no matter what!" He shouted encouragingly to the four of them
"What are you saying, Gokudera?" Yamamoto asked confused, "Hibari is the one who's fighting,"
"What good is it to get excited?" Ryohei remarked
"I know that!" Gokudera shouted, "But you heard it, Juudiame entrusted us with this, and he isn't present. We can't lose because we weren't cheering hard enough!"
Draco rubbed a hand down his face, "What the hell am I even doing here?" He asked himself, he apparated to the roof wondering how he got stuck hanging with Harry's friends even when the boy wasn't there.
"You bring your ass here!"
"Don't shout at him, Tako-head!"
Oh yeah, he was losing it alright
Once he had gotten a good view of the field he heard shouts coming from down below which meant that Hibari had arrived and probably shot down their offer to cheer him on. Everyone had arrived at the field and saw how it had been militarized
"This is the Cloud field, cloud ground,"
The field itself was like a death ring, there were multiple Gatling guns placed around the barb wire fence, "The duty of the Guardian of Cloud is to be the solitary, noble, floating cloud that protects the family while taking an independent stance-,"
"Without being bound by anything. Thus, we have prepared the most severe field, it is surrounded by barbed wire, and the eight automated guns will fire upon anything that moves within thirty meters." The Cervello demonstrated by throwing a crumbled up piece of paper near a gun and watched as it was shot to pieces
"Also, there are several underground traps which are sensitive to weight. They will explode after giving off an alarm,"
"It's like a battlefield!"
"If you're scared then run away, like your boss did," Levi taunted
"Don't mock him! Juudiame didn't run!"
Yamamoto putting a calming hand on Gokudera's shoulder, "Tsuna has no need to come, Hibari's our ace, he won't lose." He assured
Xanxus scoffed from his chair as did Aserith, "Ace?" He laughed, "I can't wait!"
"Damn, the GPS isn't working," Turmeric, the man that was with Oregano and Lal, cursed as he lost his position within the catacombs.
"What a place…" Lal remarked, "A weapons development lab…this is a demon's castle."
"Hey, the humanoid thing that was delivered to Varia…was it really for anti-personnel combat?" Oregano asked
"Couldn't be, that'd be overkill against people. Besides, its weapons are much too destructive," A rumbling was heard and they grew surpsied when the very thing they were talking about burst through a wall and attacked Turmeric.
"Teme!" Lal shout her shotgun at its armor but found that it had no effect on the machine. Oregano tried her handgun but the effect wasn't any different, the beast pointed its guns at her but a powering down noise was heard as the beast froze.
"I made it in time," A male voice said from behind the machine
"Who's that?!"
A man with a beanie on his head came from behind the giant, "I'm on your side, my name is Moretti. I've been ordered to back you up by the master."
"How did you do that?" Oregano asked helping Turmeric to stand'
Moretti hit the machine on the head, "To stop this guy, you need to hit the emergency switch on its back."
"But that thing has a life detection system on board. How could you get behind it without being noticed?"
"That's because it reacts to living things, but not the dead. I can make my own heart stop to go into a death-like state. That's how I can sneak up behind it,"
"You're 'Moretti the murdered,' the one acting as a spy in Vongola HQ for the master?"
"Yes, I will accompany you from now on." He pulled out a map from his pocket, "I've obtained this map of the underground passage as well,"
"That would be helpful, I didn't think we'd run into a weapon here that had been delivered to Varia." Turmeric sighed relived
"No, this is only a prototype, the one sent to Varia isn't even comparable. It doesn't even have an emergency shutdown button, no one can stop it once it starts its rampage."
"Then we will begin,"
"Gola Mosca versus Hibari Kyoya, battle start!"
Thrusters came from Gola Mosca's legs, it started firing bullets from its fingertips at Hibari who simply dodged the bullets as they came. Hibari landed a hit on Mosca's head and used his second tonfa to dislodge the machine's mechanical arm making the beast fall to the ground with a thud.
The battle was over a second after it had started
"Are you ready, Hari?" Tsuna asked as the boy had suddenly stopped fighting to stare in the direction of Namimori
Whatever the boy was thinking about was brought to a halt as his mind reminded him of his current task, "Ah,"
The two resumed fighting
Everyone had a mixture of shocked looks on their faces at the shortest battle in history that had just taken place. Hibari connected the Mist ring and threw it at a Cervello who caught it, "I don't want this," She nodded surprised herself, "You, sitting there, come on down. I need to bite the boss of retard ridge to death before I can go home."
"What?"
"Not 'what' Tako,"
"Tako?!"
"We've lost this conflict, what are we going to do, boss?" Belphegor asked Xanxus who smirked
"Go, Xanxus," Aserith told Xanxus who stood from his chair and jumped over the barbed wire and into the ring
Hibari brought up his tonfa to meet Xanxus's boot, "My foot slipped,"
"I'm sure,"
"I'm not lying," Xanxus moved off of the bomb that was under his foot as the alarm went off, "I was going over to retrieve that piece of junk, we've lost," Despite saying that Xanxus still had a confident smirk on his face as if there was something he knew that they didn't.
"Your face doesn't look it," Every hit Hibari dished out Xanxus dodged while never dealing out hits of his own. They got close enough to the gun and Hibari moved to close to a mine, Xanxus was unharmed but Hibari was caught in the explosion. Despite that Hibari ran out of the cloud and continued his assault on Xanxus who had still not raised a hand, "How long do you plan on keeping this up?"
"Relax, I won't lay a hand on you,"
"Either way, you will be bitten to death,"
Levi looked ready to join the fight, "Damn him, he's mocking the boss!"
"Hold on, Mr. Sullen,"
"Sullen?"
"If we, the losers, make a move, it'll be seen as a rebellion against the soon-to-be-tenth. All of us, along with the boss, will be executed,"
"So you're telling me to leave that insolent brat alone?!"
"Tako, I suggest you sit back and watch what our boss has planned." Aserith assured
"Oh?" Harry said
"Did I do it?" Tsuna asked
"You did it Tsuna, this is the Dying will Zero point breakthrough," Reborn congratulated
"You did it, Tsuna," Harry clapped the boy on the shoulder
"You completed the technique that only Vongola Primo could perform." Basil said
"It was an unexpected kind of technique like this…I couldn't have done this along, it's all thanks to the two of you, Hari, Basil-kun."
"Yosh, let's go Tsuna!"
Xanxus cursed as he had to use his hands to block the hit from Hibari, "I thought you weren't going to use your hands," The boy said smartly, Hibari continued to attempt to strike Xanxus in the face but the man easily dodged.
"Cervello,"
"Yes, Xanxus-sama?"
"Just watch how this is going to end, I am not attacking,"
Right when Hibari was about to strike once more a laser beam struck his side, "What was that?!" Gokudera shouted
"Hibari-!"
"Look out!" Ryohei shouted pushing the two out of the way of the missiles that were after them. Draco saw missiles come after him as well on the roof and apparated off the roof and onto the ground.
"You lot alright?" Draco asked
"Yeah, we're fine, what was that?" Yamamoto looked towards the field and was able to spot Gola Mosca fully operational
Xanxus looked at the scene with a smirk, "I told you, I tried to retrieve it, but their Guardian of Cloud stopped me." Gola Mosca fired dozens of missiles, lasers, and bullets in all directions, "Because of him, I lost control of Mosca,"
"It's on a rampage,"
"We're almost there, this way," Moretti told his allies as they walked the sewers towards their next destination, "I brought them," He stopped a particular hole and held up the glow stick to allow them to see who he was talking to.
Their Iemitsu sat holding a hand to his stomach that had bandages wrapped around it, they could see that he had been shot, despite being shot he looked at them with a smile, "I screwed up,"
"Please don't move," Oregano told her master
"I can't believe I made a mistake, I didn't notice until I was shot," They looked to where he was looking at and saw the ninth himself bound and possibly unconscious
"Kyuudiame!"
"No, this is a double," He told them
"A fake?"
"I fell for it…serves me right,"
"Then were is Kyuudiame?"
"I found Feniche's flight schedule. Up until a week ago…"
They knew what that was, "Feniche, Kyuudiame's private jet,"
"But the Feniche was in a hangar for repairs last week," Moretti informed
"That was also a lie," They gasped what reason would the ninth have to lie about where he was going.
"It flew to Japan,"
Gola Mosca was destroying everything in the near vicinity, it shot a particle cannon at the school along with missiles and you had to move around constantly to avoid haywire bullets. The scene was that of a war but through all that Xanxus had never lost his smirk, in fact it seemed amusing by how hard he was laughing, "This is a real disaster!"
"He's laughing,"
"He'd planned to cause this accident from the start, no matter what, to wipe us out." Gokudera reasoned, "That's why he taunted Hibari,"
"You used me?" Hibari said with rage filling his voice
"Why is Kyuudiame in Japan?" Oregano asked after that pause of silence
"It would've been natural to closely watch the Ring Conflict if he wanted to control it." Iemitsu answered, though he wasn't sure of this reason himself
"So, Kyuudiame went to Japan to make Xanxus a candidate?"
"If the Cervello organization is the hands and feet of Kyuudiame, that'd make sense."
"So Kyuudiame was behind this after all," Turmeric said
"Master, what shall we do?"
"I have a lot of things I'd like to ask him, we're going to Japan as…" Iemitsu tried to stand but had to sit back down when his wound became too much.
A cackling cut off their worries and they turned to see the fake ninth was laughing at them, "Things you want to ask Kyuudiame? It's too late for that,"
"What are you saying,"
"It's too late for that!"
"Oi, that field is dangerous!" Draco shouted at Chrome who tried to run away but ran onto the field instead, "Stupid chit," Chrome accidently stepped on a mine and was almost killed if it wasn't for Ken and Chikusa who pushed her out of the way. They were cornered though when a Gatling gun turned towards them as did Gola Mosca
The Gatling gun fired its bullets and the Gola Mosca fired its particle cannon.
The pain of bullets and disintegration never came as they looked up to see Harry blocking the laser with his giant flame and Tsuna burning the bullets with his.
Aserith narrowed her eyes at the white flame, "He's come,"
"The trash will be taken out in order, there is no change in that," Xanxus told her
"Let's go,"
"Ah," Together they flew towards Gola Mosca taking out his missiles as they came so they wouldn't be hurtful towards anyone. Gola Mosca shot bullet s at them but Tsuna burnt them with his flame taking out his only other arm and Harry, who had been behind Tsuna, kicked the giant towards the ground.
"Oi, piece of trash, we're your opponents," Right after he said that, Harry had to put up a flame shield to block all the missiles that came towards them.
"What's going on? All the missiles were aimed at Juudaime!"
"Gola Mosca's switched targets," Draco said
Harry let down the shield in order to let Tsuna charge in, he flew towards Gola Mosca before flying above him. He wasn't able to perfom the attack he wanted because Gola Mosca flew right above him charging its particle cannon. It fired at almost point blank range but Harry blocked that as well allowing Tsuna to punch the monster in the laser hole sending him shooting towards the ground.
"As expected of my student," Draco and Reborn said at the same time
The fake ninth cackled once more, Turmeric fisted the man's shirt in anger, "What's too late? Answer us, or else!"
"Do you really want to know? Then, I'll tell you," Turmeric let go of the man's shirt, "Did you know that Vongola was making the military's secret weapon? An accursed weapon that was supposed to be lost in the shadows of history."
Oregano's eyes widened behind her glasses, "You mean the humanoid weapon that was sent to Varia,"
"That's right, Gola Mosca. The reason why Gola Mosca was hidden, even though the military did all it could to erase it…" He chuckled madly, "I bet you don't know why."
"What are you trying to say?" Oregano asked with gritted teeth
"Gola Mosca is a weapon without a shred of humanity, that thing moves by eating human life!"
"What is he trying to say?"
"Strictly speaking, it runs off the life energy of a special kind of flame that can be harvested from a certain kind of person."
Iemitsu eyes widened, "C-could he mean…"
"Master?"
"What?"
"Cancel it! We need to cancel the conflict over the Cloud Ring right now!"
"There's one thing I'm hung up on," Reborn said, it seemed that Tsuna and Harry had defeated Mosca but there was something still troubling about the whole battle, "They could have unleashed Mosca at full power and defeated us, wiping us out. Xanxus…why did he act in this roundabout way?"
Tsuna turned towards said man, "Xanxus, what is-," He stopped as Gola Mosca's thrusters lit up once more and shot at them, Harry and Tsuna caught the monster with one hand not even struggling to push it back.
That pulse came again, Draco realized, he could feel it beating faster and faster and his eyes widened and jaw dropped a little when he identified that pulse as a heartbeat. There was a heart beating in Gola Mosca, he saw Tsuna was about to chop the monster in half to finally end this, "Sawada, no!"
It was too late
"A person-a person came out of that thing!"
I hope doing this makes sense to you guys
