Thump

"Weak, weak. This is the famous Namimori Middle School Disciplinary Committee?" A voice teased as three shadows stood over a member of Namimori Middle School Disciplinary Committee."Heh, not even scary.

"Well these should be perfect for you, Ken."

The Committee member weakly turned his head to look at his attacker as cloud rolled in front of the room, shrouding them in the darkness. He could faintly make out the outline of two boys and a girl.

"W-Who are you people?" He asked.

"Huh? We just some kid from a nearby town playing for an away game." The first voice said.

The girl sighed, crossing her arms and shifting her weight to one side. "That's not funny. This guy's isn't one of them, we're just wasting more time."

The other boy pushed up his glasses. "She's right, Ken. Let's just get this over with so we can move on to the next guy."

"Sure." The first boy agreed in delight as the clouds moved away from the moon.

He reached in his pocket and pulled out something out of his pocket as he stalked towards his prey. "Don't hate us. We're just following orders."

"S-Stay back!" The committee member cried out.

A fearful, pain filled scream filled the air. The committee member lay on the ground, groaning in pain and barely conscious. On his chest was a gold pocket watch, the hour hand on the eleven.

~KHR~

The ocean. Misaki opened her eyes, the strong smell of salt water in the air. She looked around, she was on that beach again. She giggled as the warm water lapped at her feet, digging her toes into the sand slightly.

"Mari…"

She looked over her should and saw the red-haired woman.

"You…" Misaki said turning around. "Who are you and how do you know that name?"

The woman smiled. "That is the nickname my beloved cielo gave me. It's also the name she gave you isn't it?"

Misaki smiled. "Yeah,but I haven't been called that in a long time. Can I call you that? And you can call me Misaki or Misa, this way we don't get confused."

The woman chuckled nodded. Suddenly her playfulness disappeared as she looked around, a frown on her face. Misaki shivered as the mist rolled in, the warm ocean air slowly turning ice cold.

"Why is there so much mist?" Misaki asked nervously.

"Because a mist has arrived."

"A mist?"

Mari nodded."Misaki, please be careful. You have to protect them."

"Protect who? Who am I supposet to protect."

"Mi. Misaki, wake up."

Letting out a groan, Misaki rolled over on her back and opened her eyes, staring up at her cousin.

"If you want to grab something to eat before you leave, I suggest you get up." Hideaki said.

Misaki looked over at her alarm clock, it already seven fifteen.

"I'll be there in a few minutes."

Hideaki nodded and walked out of her room, call over his shoulder for her to hurry up before it gets cold.

Misaki sat up and touched her forehead. "What was that dream all about? She keeps talking about protecting someone.…"

She shook her head as she threw off her covers. She can worry about her crazy dreams some other time. After getting washed up and dressed, Misaki walked into the kitchen and saw Hideaki reading the newspaper, breakfeast already on the table.

"Where's your mom?" She asked sitting down across from him.

"She'll be back. Something about cheeking in with a friend that is in Nami." Hideaki said, raising an eyebrow at an article.

"Something interesting?" Misaki asked taking a bite.

"Yeah, Members of the Namimori Middle School Disciplinary Committee were attacked and severely injured this weekend."

Misaki choked on a pieces of egg in surprise. "W-What?!"

Hideaki nodded and showed her the article."It says it right here."

"This is crazy…"Misaki said, reading the article.

No one messed with Disciplinary Committee, or Namimori Middle School in general, unless you wanted to be bitten to death. Whoever was behind the attack had to be very stupid or suicidal.

"They have got to be strong to take out members of the Committee." Misaki thought. "This is crazy…"

Hideaki frowned. "Maybe, you should stay home, Mi."

The red-haired shook her head. "I'll be fine."

Hideaki frowned. "I'm thinking of joining a gym that has mixed martial art and kickboxing. I think you should join with me."

"Maybe. I'll think about it and let you know." Misaki said, as she stood up. "I'm gonna get going."

"Be safe." Hideaki called after her.

As she walked to meet up with Tsuna, Misaki couldn't help but think about that dream she had. She had been having similar ones since she came back home. She would be on that beach, staring out at the ocean with a rainbow stretched beyond the horizon. The woman, Mari, always there. The two of them looked so much alike except that Mari had blueish-green eyes, her hair was more red then Misaki's,kind of like how her hair gets when she is out in the sun for a long time, and Mari's skin was a few tones darker then Misaki's pale skin. Every time they meet in her dreams, Mari always looked like she wanted to tell her something but held back.

Misaki sighed, playing with her mother's ring. "Maybe I'm just over thinking it…."

"Over thinking what?"

She looked up and saw Reborn and Tsuna. "Just some dream, it's not important."

"You sure?" Tsuna asked.

"Yeah. Did you hear about what happen to some members of the Disciplinary Committee?" Miasaki asked as they started walking to school.

"Yeah. Mom want me to take lessons for self-defense." Tsuna said, showing her the flyers his mom had given him.

Misaki looked at them. "You know I think you would be good at Akido."

The brunette let out groan. "Not you too. It's just Members of the Disciplinary Committee that are getting attacked. This has nothing to do with me."

"It might not hurt to learn at least the basic. Hideaki wants me to join a gym for kickboxing and mixed martial arts with him, you could join with us."

Tsuna let out winces. "No thanks."

"If Futa was here, we could have him rank the different martial arts." Reborn said.

"We don't need a ranking like that!"

"Speaking of Futa, has he been home at all?" Misaki asked.

Tsuna shook his head. "He hasn't been home in a few days."

Misaki frowned, worried. "I hope he's okay…."

Tsuna nodded in agreement. When they are arrived at school they were surprised to see members of the Disciplinary Committee standing guard outside the school.

"With the attacks, tensions are high." Reborn said.

"Do you think it someone one who has a grudge against the Disciplinary Committee?" Misaki asked, looking at Tsuna.

"No."

The two teen flinched and turned around nervously. Standing behind them was Hibari.

"H-Hibari-san." The two teens stuttered.

"Caiossu." Reborn greeted

"Hello, Baby." Hibari said before turn his attention to the teens."

"We were just on our way to school. W-We weren't badmouthing you or anything." Tsuna said nervously, holding his hands up.

"I have no memory of such mischief. " Hibari said. "Of course I intend to protect myself by extinguishing the root of the threat."

The two of them could practically feel the bloodlust dripping from the perfect's words.

"I pity the person responsible for the attacks." Misaki thought, smiling nervously as she shifted closer to Tsuna.

Suddenly Hibari whipped around, Misaki and Tsuna flinched as his tonfas just missed Tsuna's nose. The tonfas made contact with a man wearing a doctors, sending him to the ground.

"Dr. Shamal!" Tsuna said, surprised.

The girl Shamal was talking to screamed and ran away. Shamal winced as he sat up, holding the back of his head.

"What was that for?" He groaned as the black haired teen narrowed his eyes at him.

"I sensed a malice intent. Must have been my imagination." Hibari said, turning walking away.

"Doesn't mean you had to attack me." Shamal said standing up, rubbing the back of his head. "Man that hurt."

Hibari stopped, placing a hand on his neck before he continued walking. The two teen waited till the perfect passed before letting out a sigh of relief. Misaki looked over at the man as he said something to Reborn about cherry blossoms.

"Friend of your?" Misaki asked Tsuna.

"More a friend of Reborn." Tsuna explained before looking at the doctor. "What are you doing here anyway?"

"I heard about the attacks recently. I figured I should protect the girls." The doctor said, grinning.

"You're the one they need protection from." Tsuna grumbled, getting a giggle from his best friend.

"And who might this young lady be?" He asked, smiling at the red head.

"This is my friend Misaki." Tsuna said, his eyes flashing a warning.

Shamal raised an eyebrow before chuckling. "Relax kid. No need to get jealous."

Tsuna cheeks flushed red. "I-It's not like that!"

"Hovering above the green from Namimori.~"

"Isn't that our school song?" Misaki asked, looking around got the source of music.

The music stopped as Hibari flipped open his phone. Tsuna and Misaki shared a look of disbelief. Sure Hibari loved Namichu more than anyone but having their school song was his ring tone was a little much.

"I see." Hibari looked back at Tsuna, who flinched. "Isn't Ryohei Sasagawa an acquaintances of yours? He's been beating up."

"What?!"

~KHR~

"Onii-san? Are you okay?" Tsuna asked as he slid open the door.

The boxer turned his head and smiled slight."Oh Sawada, Ishikawa. Look at me. Pathetic,huh?"

"Hey at least you can get the boxing team to sign your cast." Misaki said, trying to lighten the mood. "Can I sign it?"

"How did this happen?!" Tsuna asked, freaking out while his best friend walk over to the other side of the bed.

"How to you feel?" Reborn asked.

"A few broken bones." Ryohei said. "I was caught off guard. Man,that guys was strong."

"Wait, you saw the guys who did it?" Misaki said, her words slightly muffled by the marker cap in her mouth.

"Yeah. He was wearing a uniform from Kokuyo Middle school." Ryohei answered.

"What?! He was a middle schooler?" Tsuna asked, disbelief.

"Yup. You two should be careful."

"Not you two. This has got nothing to do with us." Tsuna said, holding his hands up.

Misaki frowned slightly as Ryohei let out a yell about how he wished he had won so the guy could be on the boxing team. Kokuyo Middle School, why did that familer? There were quite a few middle schools in Namimori.

"Is this your?"

Misaki looked over at Reborn, who held out a gold pocket watch.

"No, I heard it was found on my chest when they found me." Ryohei said.

Reborn opened it. The minute hand was on the twelve while hour hand was on the five.

"Weird, there is no ticking or anything. I wonder if it's broken." Misaki thought.

"By the way, I haven't told Kyoko what really happened. She tends to worry too much, you know." Ryohei said. "So just go along with my story."

Tsuna blinked confused. He knew that Kyoko was against her brother fighting, but she would understand if it was in self-defense right.

Suddenly the door opened and Kyoko came running in a worried look on her face, rushing over to her brother's side."Onii-chan, what were you doing climbing the chimney of the bathhouse?!"

"What kind of story is that?" Ran through both Tsuna and Misaki's minds.

"Onii-chan, are you sure it just a sprain?" Kyoko asked, worried.

"Yeah." Ryohei said.

Tsuna looked at the siblings in disbelief as Misaki pinched the bridge of her nose. They had to give Ryohei credit for sticking to his story. Either Kyoko was just going along with the story for her brother sake or she believed he got all these injuries. With the attacks, anyone else would assume that he was attacked.

"Then again some of his injuries could be from a fall." Misaki thought as the idol thank them for coming to visit.

"I can't believe Ryohei was attacked." She said as they left the two siblings alone. "He's not part of the Disciplinary committee."

"What is going on?" Tsuna said, frustrated and confused, running his fingers in his hair.

"You aren't the only ones in a panic." Reborn said looking down the hall.

The two of the scared a confused look and walked down. In the lobby was what looked like most of Namimori Student Body. Everyone was talking in hushed and worried voice, all of them had nervous and worried looks on their face. Tsuna looked to his right, into one of the room. In the room was Kenskue Mochida, the kendo club captain, covered with cut and bandage with a oxygen mask on, his eyebrows frowned in pain.

"Mochida senpai!" Tsuna said.

"Oh it's Dame-Tsuna." A student who was by the room said.

"What happened to Mochida-senpai!? Don't tell me.."

They guy nodded."Yeah, he was beat up by the same guys."

"What?!"

"He's not the only one. Since last night, five three-years, four second-years and two first-year students, all non-committee members, were attacked. "He explained.

"Non-committee members attacked?!" Misaki asked, a uneasy feeling growing in her stomach.

"Students from Namichu are being indiscriminately attacked!" The boy said.

"No way!" Tsuna yelled. "Why is something happening?!"

Misaki bit her lip, looking around at the look of the students. Everyone seemed nervous and anxious. Given the situation, it safe to assume no one felt safe. Students started to move out of the way as the vice-chairman of the Displianary committee, Kusakabae-san and another member of the committee walked down the halls. Everyone instantly bowed.

"Still no sign of the chairman?" Kusakabae asked.

"Right, We believe he has found the location of the enemy." The member said. "The destruction of the culprits is only matter a time."

"I see."

"Did you hear that?" The guys said, excitedly once Kusakebae and the other member had passed.

Tsuna nodded,grinning. "Hibari-san went to go deal with the Bad Guys!"

"Hibari-san's invincible! Now we don't have to worry!"

"We're so lucky to be in the same school as Hibari-san!" Tsuna cheered. "We're counting on you, Lord in heaven! Hibari-sama!"

Misaki smiled alittle as everyone in the room cheered. "Hibari-san is the strongest in Namimori, even the police fear getting on his bad side. He'll take care of this and we'll all be safe."

There was a slight pop. Misaki looked down and blinked as Reborn picked up something green and wiggling.

"What is that?" She asked.

"Leon's tail fell off."

"A chameleon's tail can fall off?"

"It's an ill omen."

Misaki frowned. The calm before the storm.

~KHR~

"Um excuse me…."

Kuakabae looked over his shoulder. "Yes?"

Standing there was a girl with blond hair, her pink eyes full of tears and worry. She was dressed in a dark green jacket and black skirt with lace and ruffles with black lace thigh-high stockings and brown leather combat boots.

"Are you part of Namimori Middle School Disciplinary?" She asked nervously, her voice quivering.

"I am. Is there something wrong?" He asked, dismissing the members he was talking to.

"C-Could you help me find my cousin? H-H-He's part of the Disciplinary Committee. M-My aunt said..T-That he was attacked and I..I.." The girl bit her lip, trying to hold back her sobs. "I..I just…T-They said it was and I…

"It's alright. Just take a deep breath and try to calm down." Kuaskabae said gently, resting his hand on her shoulder. "I'm the Vice-Chairman of the Disciplinary Committee. What is your cousin's name?"

"Tetsuya Kusakabe…"

"Wha-"

The girl grabbed his head and slammed his face against her knee.

~KHR~

"I-Is Leon okay? He keep clanging." Tsuna asked as Leon kept shifting into random items.

"Without his tail, Leon has no control over his shape-shifting memory." Reborn explained.

"What's with that?!"

"Is his tail going to grow back?" Misaki asked, takeing a sip of her water bottle.

Before Reborn could answer, a doctor yelled at everyone to move out of the way. Everyone started to panic when they saw who was on the gurney.

"It's the Dispciplinary Committee vice-chairman,Kusakabe-san!"

"I heard he was beat up right outside the horspital!"

"No way….Hibari-san should've dealt with those guys already…" Tsuna thought. "Could he have…"

"Tsuna…" Misaki looked at him with a worried look, having the same thoughts as him

"Hibari is invincible, there is no way he could have lost." Tsuna reassured her, though his tone was a little unsure.

"Take care of Leon for a sec."

Misaki blinked confused as Reborn threw a space ship shaped Leon into her hands. "Huh?"

"Reborn?" Tsuna called after the hitman.

Reborn hoped up on to gurney and on to Kusakabe's chest. He reached in his jacket and pulled out a gold pocket watch, opening it. He jumped off and started at the watch as the nurses pushed the gurney into the elevator. Misaki and Tsuna walked over to him, confused.

"What are you doing?" Misaki asked as Leon shifted into a rice cooker.

"There's no mistaking it." Reborn said, looking at the time on the watch. "There are picking a fight with you,Tsuna."

"Huh?"Tsuna asked nervously. "What do you mean they are picking a fight with me?"

"This."

Misaki and Tsuna stared at the watch confused.

"Is there something special about this pocket watch?" Tsuna asked. "It's not moving. Is it broken?"

"They guy that they just brought in, Kusakabe, had it on him." Reborn explained, pulling another watch out of his pocket."And this is the one that was on Ryohei Sasagawa."

"They are the same kind of pocket watch." Misaki said.

" I heard that there was similar pocket watch found on the guy that were beaten up before that. With the hands pointed at six's o'clock"

"Six, five, four…"Tsuna said.

Misaki felt an uneasy drop in her stomach. "It's a countdown…"

"What?!"

"That's when it hit me. Take look at this." Reborn said, handing Tsuna a list of some sort.

"A ranking list of strongest fighters at Namimori Middle School? What is this about?" Tsuna asked.

"You are slow." Reborn said, Misaki giggling at the slight at the pout on her best friends face. "The people who were attacked are on this list."

"Eh? You're right."

Looking over Tsuna's shoulder, Misaki felt her heart stop as she recognized the hand-writing. "This is…."

"One of Futa's."

"What?!" The teen yelled.

"The mafia has a code of silences, Omerta. It's a law that forbids Mafiosi from sharing their organization secrets from outsiders." Reborn explained, as Leon who had shifted into a mini Futa. "Futa's rankings are top-level organizarional secret. Civilians have no idea they exist."

"So then the only people Futa would be able to give this to would be…"Misaki said slowly, looking at Leon-Futa worried.

Reborn nodded. Misaki bit her lip, anger and worry welling up insider. She felt anger towards the bastard who did this and worry for Futa. He already had people after him, for someone to use him for this, just made her blood boil.

"So wait, If Kusakabe-san was fourth, then number three is next." Tsuna said, instantly looking at the paper. "Third, third. No way!"

"You know you shouldn't tell him he is below him. He might have a heart attack." Misaki couldn't help saying as she looked at the paper.

"This isn't the time to joke!"Tsuna yelled before looking at the hitman." Reborn, what are we going to do?!"

"We're in a bad situation." Reborn said, as he held out his hand for Leon. "You two go. I need to check something out."

"WHAT? US!?"

~KHR~

Gokudera paused from the game he was playing on his cell phone and looked around. "Whats going on? A bunch of people aren't here…"

His eye drifted to Tsuna and Misaki's desk. "Neither is Juudaime or Ishikaway…"

He looked back at his phone and frowned as a message popped up,say it was going to die in fifteen second. He let out a sigh hand stood up.

"My phone is dead. I'm going home." He said,swing his back over his shoulder as he headed for the door.

"Hold on Gokudera. You were late!" The teacher yelled after the sliverette.

Yamamoto raised his head. "Lunch time already?"

"Yamamoto! Try staying awake in class instead of falling asleep all the time!" The teacher scolded as the baseball player let out a yawn stretching.

"Yes, I'm sorry."

Yamamoto looked around the room tiredly. "The others aren't here?"

He let out a yawn, resting his chin in his hand. Within a few minutes he was back asleep.

~KHR~

"I have to tell him. This is bad. Very Bad." Tsuna thought as he and Misaki ran towards the school.

There was a bang. The two teens looked up and saw a net coming towards them. Misaki speed up, managing to get out of the way. Tsuna wasn't so lucky as he got caught in the net.

"Tsuna!" Misaki yelled, sliding to a stop. "Are you okay?!"

"We did it!"

"Huh?!" Misaki looked at Haru, Lambo and I-pin in disbelief.

"We caught Tsuna-san!" Haru said proudly.

"What are you doing?!" Tsuna asked as Misaki ran back to them.

"And where the hell did you guys get a net cannon?!" Misaki yelled.

"I heard about your school being targeted and that's dangerous, so I figured you wouldn't get attacked if we got you first." Haru explained happily. "As for the net cannon, Lambo-chan had it!

Misaki rolled her eyes as she started to untangle Tsuna. Of course Lambo would have it, he probably had it stuffed somewhere in the black hole on his head, along with the other stuff.

"That doesn't make senses!" Tsuna yelled frustrated. "I don't' have time to play around!"

Haru pouted. "I'm not playing around! Haru is very serious!"

"Tsuna-san is very secure!" I-pin said.

"Tsuna, You look like a bagworm." Lambo laughed.

"JUST UNTIE ME!"

~KHR~

A bowling ball raced down the lane before crashing in to a bunch of pins and bottles. A spiky blond haired teen with amber eyes and a scar across his face smirked.

"It only took you a twelve tries to get a strike, Ken."

He snarled at the blond hair girl. "I'd like to see you try that,Lu. By the way I heard blood is a bitch to get out ."

The girl rolled her eyes before looking back at her book. She could care less about her stockings, she could easily get a new pair.

"So how did it go, Mukuro-san?" Ken asked. "With Namichu boss. Sparrow, duck or whatever boy."

"He wasn't the one. He is currently resting in the other room." Mukuro said.

Lu looked at the red and blue eyed teen. "Is he still alive?"

The smirk on Murkuo's face told her all she need to know.

"By the way, where's Chikusa?" Mukuro asked.

"Kakipi went to hunt the the third-place guy. He says he was getting sick of this whole thing, so he might not be able to hold himself back." Ken said gleefully.

Mukuro smirked. "I can understand how he feels. We are having quite a bit of trouble finding the right guy."

The sound of a book closing with a snap drew there attention to the girl. Mukuro raised an eyebrow was she stood up and walked off.

"Where are you going, Luchia?" He asked.

The girl looked over her shoulder at him. "I need some air. The smell of this place and Ken is giving me a headache.

Mukuro chuckled as Ken yelled after her that he took a bath yesterday. Lucia walked down the hall, her footstep echoing throughout the hall. She paused, looking into one of the rooms.

"You can come out." She said, quietly.

Futa peaked out of the room, his eyes dead and lifeless.

"You want to go for a walk with me?" She asked gently.

The two of them stood there for a minute or so before the boy nodded slightly. As the two of them walked towards the entrances, Luchia couldn't help but feel the guilt welling in her chest. She had to wonder if the other felt at least a little guilty as she did, well maybe Ken and Chikusa. Sure, this was all part of Mukuro's plan and they were all for it, but she still feel upset for dragging a kid into this. Sure he was the ranking prince that every member of the Mafia wanted at their side, but he was still a kid. He should be worried about school, not if people are going to kidnap him everywhere he went.

"Say's the girl who kidnapped him." Luchia thought, wincing to herself.

Her thoughts different her life might have been like if that hadn't happened to them. Maybe she would be a different person, maybe the others would be different and they could go to school like normal kids. Maybe she would be still have her brother at her side…

She sighed softly to herself, reaching up and playing with her shell locket. "I hope we find this guy soon…I want the Mafia to pay.."

~KHR~

"Dame it." Misaki growled slightly as she got flipped her phone shut.

After getting Tsuna untangled, Misaki tried to call Gokudera, only for it to tell them that he was either out of ranged or turned off.

"Of course the one time I need to get a hold of him, we can't reached his cell!" Tsuna yelled, gripping his head.

"Ah, Namichu students." A girl whispered as her and her friend walked past. "Just ignore them and keep walking."

"We don't want to get involved in that stuff." Her friend said.

"That's how we're being viewed?" Tsuna asked in disbelief.

"Well when most of the student body gets beaten up and hospitalized, I pretty sure other will stay away." Misaki grumbled.

"Did you hear about what's going on over in the shopping district?"

"Someone from from Nami is fighting someone from Kokuyo."

The two of them looked at each other before they ran towards the shopping district. Both of them prayed that they we're weren't too late. The sound of explosions made them run faster.

"Gokudera!" Tsuna yelled as they saw the silverette, sitting on the ground.

He was covered in small cuts and his clothes was slightly singed, but other than that he looked alright.

"Juudaime! What are you doing here?" Gokudera asked surprised.

"We heard about that the guys behind the attack where after you." Tsuna explained.

"So you came here?"

Misaki rolled her eye with a smiled as Gokudera bowed on his knee, telling Tsuna how honored he was. She could almost see the loyal dog in him wagging his tail happily. Suddenly she felt something inside of her scream to run.

"Gokudera, you took care of him right…"

He shot her a look, before looking over his shoulder. "Yeah he is should be laying over there…"

The three of looked over at the smoking spot, expecting to see the guy laying there. Instead, all they saw was the singed ground.

"He's gone."

"You saved me the trouble."

The three of them instantly looked to the voice. Standing there was a teen coved in blood, holding two yoyo. Even though he was teen, he had this feel to him that just screamed danger. Misaki tensed up as she saw his hand twitched slightly. Misaki raised her arms and closed her eyes waiting for the pain as the boys raised his left hand. The scent of blood filled the air, only she didn't feel the pain. Opening her eye, Misaki felt her heart stop and her throat tighten.

Standing infront of her and Tsuna was Gokudera, his shirt slowly turning red.
