Lazura: So Michael is going into the past, but will he be able to face his parents?

Past

"So, will I be getting an answer now?" Serena was undoubtly suspiscious about the trio, it made the atmosphere in the room turn tense.

"I-It's a replica! A replica!" Mayuri began spouting out, "We admired the vigilatnes' rings a lot so we just altered it a bit!"

N-Now that I think about it...how come my pin reverted to a ring form?

She quickly glanced over to Tsuna's and Enma's rings, they still looked the same, except hers.

The ring she was wearing now was similar to Tsuna's except it had Lop's ears sticking out of the circle while Rii's wings were in the center of the Vongola crest.

"I see..." Serena's eyes narrowed.

Of course she didn't believe that one line, there's no way someone can easily copy these rings. They were hand-made by someone who beared a strange power in creating rings, however Uncle Talbot fitted the group. It wasn't true, Talbot was still a young alchemist then, so it was never possible for Talbot to make such rings.

"Then I'm guessing you all came from a different timeline?" Serena continued, "From the looks of your previous clothes, they don't seem common in this era."

Mayuri didn't know how to cover for them, Serena indeed is a tough person to convince. It was as if she had a third eye that saw through their lies.

To Serena, she wasn't sure if her previous dream had anything to do with these three. However those same three rings were in it. When Serena looked at the rings on Giotto's and Cozart's hands from the picture she had, it was no doubt the rings on these two boys were the same. Except the one who looked like Giotto had a more modified version of Giotto's ring. What did this mean? Serena wondered.

"Something like that." Tsuna this time answered.

Tsuna tried to explain, except Mayuri frowned towards him.

Mayuri's words stung.

We can't tell her these rings are the same rings the first generation have. Anything of the future may prevent our present to disappear.

"We just fell here on accident." Tsuna explained, "We're supposed to head back home, but something caused us to land here."

"We didn't expect to drop here," Enma finished. Serena still seemed unconvinced, however relented seeing that the trio won't budge on their statements.

Serena sighed to herself, "You may stay as long as needed, but remember that this is Vonogla grounds. If you need me, I'll be in my quarters attending to someone."

Once Serena left the tension ceased as all three of them exasperated their breath.

"I didn't expect my ancestor on being that scary," Mayuri thought back at her times in the future, "She seemed so calm and caring. Yet she has a serious demeanor."

"But Mayu-san, what are we going to do from now on?" Enma this time questioned her, "We have no clue about how we'll be returning to the present."

"For now, we shouldn't disrupt anything that happens in the past. If Shoichi were here, he'd say it would ruin our time period. Hopefully Reborn and the others will find a way to send a rescue team into the past." Maury eyed Enma in particular, "So we have to let the event happen, Enma."

Enma swallowed hard painfully remembering the events of the Shimon Famiglia versus Vongola Famiglia, placing their pride on the line. "We have to let it happen...otherwise I wouldn't have met Tsuna and you, Mayu-san."

"Enma..." Tsuna seemed glad upon Enma's decision.

Although the only problem left...was to avoid meeting the other Vongola Guardians. If any of them were to see Tsuna, Enma, and Mayuri...the trio would be in deep trouble.

Present

"This communication bracelet will serve as a way to talk through the time periods," Spanner clicked the bracelets on Michael's and Reborn's wrists.

Shoichi warned the two,"If anything happens, please immediately alert us. We'll do our best trying to keep in touch with you guys to check your actions. Any alteration of the past will proven as fatal at this point."

"I understand." Michael responded as Giannini handed him three bracelets for the trio, "Ready, Reborn?"

"Yeah." Reborn replied while sitting on Michael's shoulder.

As Michael ran toward the portal, Shoichi yelled to him, "Make sure nothing happens in the past!"

Giannini floated towards Michael, "I'll tell Dino-san about the current situation."

"Thank you." Shoichi thanked the floating man as he watched the screen making sure Michael and Reborn weren't off coördinates.

Past (Michael and Reborn's side)

Landing on his two feet, Michael and Reborn found themselves in the supposed gardens of the Vongola HQ from 400 years ago.

"Shoichi, can you hear me?" Michael spoke through the bracelet.

"Yes, can you describe the area you're in?" Shoichi asked as Michael described the scenery.

"Yep, you two are within the same area of where they're dropped." Shoichi proceeded to explain, "Right now, Spanner found that two are alone inside a room in the HQ. Mayuri seems she is the only one outside in the gardens."

"Roger," Michael answered, "How about the first generation guardians or the boss?"

Spanner intercepted, "As of now, only the lightning and star flames are radiating off at high points in HQ. But if any of the big ones arrive, we'll alert you in time."

Spanner and Shoichi stopped responding as Michael stayed hidden from the views of the servants running around.

"Reborn, are you alright...you haven-" Michael stared at what was on his shoulder, it was a fake Reborn doll, "Damn it Reborn! Stop messing with me!"

"How are we supposed to find them if you go missing too?!" Michael raced off deeper into the gardens while Reborn hid in the shadows as a ninja to find the trio.

Shoichi sighed on Reborn's bracelet, "Reborn-san, do you think that was the wisest choice? Tricking Michael like that?"

"It's for the best, plus this was a favor I owed him when he was a child..." Reborn answered as he headed off through the trees to find where the trio were actually at.

Lazura: Small preview of the next chapter...

Michael: Why does this scene seem so familiar?

Serena: So your name is Kyosuke? It's a lovely name of a man your age.

Michael: I'm not from the present...I'm actually a being from 400 years ago...
