Destination 3: A Lost Traveler


"We traveled together. And after countless summers, one day, I was all alone again. At the end of everything, I was truly… and utterly… alone…"


"Tsu-Tsuna…why did you do this?"

No…I didn't..! Yamamoto..!

"Juu-Juudaime…what are you…!?"

No, please! Gokudera-kun…!

"I thought that you're a person who's extremely loyal to my sister…"

O-onii-san, wait! This is not what you think…!

"Bo-bossu…why?"

Chrome, please don't look at me like that…

Lam-Lambo, don't be scare…please don't go..!

"Oya oya…to think that you've lower yourself like the other scumbag Mafioso…"

"Who thought that even you have this kind of side, Sawada Tsunayoshi…"

Kyouya…Mukuro…not you two too…!

"NOO! HE DID IT! HE DID THIS TO ME!"

Wha-what..!?

No…! No I'm not..!

"Ot-otouto…how could you…!?"

Dino-san, I don't do it! Please believe me!

Everyone, including Basil and Iemitsu who were along the group just stared at him with disbelieve.

Disgusting.

Hateful.

Shameful.

The said victim cried as much as she wanted, leading to Dino and Yamamoto to bend down to her, tried to calm her down. Tsuna sat on the floor dumbly, as he watched the rest slowly turned around and left, leaving behind Romario and Dino's other subordinates. Romario bent down and raised his hand to Tsuna, who stared at it before shaking, grabbed the handed hand. He did not know what had happened next until he felt the same hand touched his face and felt something wet against his skin.

He did not even realize that he was crying.


Tsuna woke up from his sleep after a strong shake shaking his boy. He looked around and heard the pilot was announcing that that the plane will be arriving at Namimori Airport, and the air stewards and stewardesses were busy explaining the passengers on how to buckle the belt or calming down the crying children. Tsuna closed his eyes as he sighed tiredly, both body and mind. He steadied himself as the plane shook before safely landed on the airport's ground.

It was one unpleasant dream that he had just now.

It was the fifth day of him missing from the Vongola Mansion. He managed to get a taxi that brought him to the railway station before boarding one to the St Petersburg. From Italy, he used a fake passport under the name 'Samuel Gerard' to book a train's ticket, and it took him more than a day to reach the said destination. As from St Petersburg, he took another railway journey to Moscow, and from Moscow, he booked one ticket to Narita Airport, Japan before switching a plane to Namimori. This time his passport name was no longer as 'Samuel Gerard', instead he came in as 'Hiiragi Tomofumi', a Japan citizen who came back from his traveling in Moscow.

As he carried the luggage and backpack on his shoulder, he felt like his legs were getting heavier than before. Aside from jet leg that he felt right now, he felt very tired and heavy. His endless journey to come back home had taken a toll on his body too much, especially since he was just discharged from hospital less than two weeks.

He went to the bus section at the airport and waited until the bus came, before it took him towards the small city of Namimori. Tsuna took the back seats in the vehicle, leaned against the window as he let sleepiness took over him. It's not that hard for him to once again, dreamed about 'that' dream.

The one that haunted him ever since that day.

He was framed with a crime he never did, his family did not believe him. He was left alone after the commotion, and Romario and few of his other co-workers were the only people that stayed with him. His PAs came by afterwards and were shock to find out what had happened. Katagiri Suzume almost went out and was about to beat the Guardians if not he stopped her from doing so. These people were the ones who listened to his side; unfortunately, Romario had to go back to his family and promised him to help him as much as he could.

The afterwards were not that pleasant.

Timoteo, the Ninth Vongola Boss came by the next day and Tsuna was shock to find out that the old man asked him to responsible of what had happened, without even asking him what had happened. The old man said he learned everything from the Guardians, Dino, Basil and Iemitsu, and of course, from the victim whom he met first. He found out that the victim was a daughter of a Family who always wished to be an ally to the Vongola and the incident had somehow damaged the family's reputation. The boss demanded for Tsuna to be responsible on everything, or he will make sure Tsuna would regret it.

He was unfortunately at the wrong place at the wrong time.

No matter how much he denied it, Timoteo did not believe him. He said there were witnesses who saw them and all the evident showed that he was the culprit. Tsuna was speechless, Timoteo looked really furious of what had happened and he did not believe him, every single words. Tsuna would surely broke down if not Suzume burst into the room despite the efforts of Nono's Guardians (yes, Suzume was very strong that Tsuna even wonder if her strength succeed the Varia Quality. Even Nono's Guardians were thrown away! Seriously) and took him away. She put her into his bedroom and from inside, he could hear furious fracas between the Ninth Generation and Suzume.

"How dare you do this!? You just listening to one side and then you accused him! Are you sure you're not suffering from Alzheimer Nono?" Screamed Suzume furiously.

"Watch your mouth woman! Don't you –"

"Shut up Ganauche!" And a punch was heard. "Listen here! Leave him alone right now! Attacking Tsuna-kun like that would never solve everything!"

"But everything is clear! There's even witness more than one!"

"Then investigate this matter! Until you do that, tell that SON OF BITCH to stay away from this family and this mansion, don't ever try to do anything stupid AND DON'T EVER TRY TO MEET TSUNA OR ANYTHING THAT COULD CONTACT HIM WITH THAT S.O.B OR HIS FAMILY IF HE WANTS TO LIVE LONG! YOU GOT THAT!?" After the last scream that would make even Tsuna turned deaf, Suzume opened the door harshly that accidentally hit his face (which surprised her a lot) and quickly locked the door.

Tsuna did not realize that he already cried when the woman whom he looked up as a big sister came into his room. She let him cried his eyes out until his brother Arashi came by. They stayed with him, waiting until he calm down. For the rest of the day, or even after that, they always accompanied him together, as if they were his Guardians instead. At least he felt a bit calm since he always heard whispers and back talk about him and the said incident, which depressed him more. His relationship with Kyouko also was destroy after the said woman came all the way to Italy and slapped him hard. Someone told her about the incident that she was so angry that she said she hated him, and left him while crying. Sasagawa Ryohei stepped in and asked him not to meet again with his sister anymore, since they had broken their relationship and Kyouko's heart was hurt. This had left his devastated as his heart also was broken, but of course, nobody cared.

The climax of the incident was that he overheard the conversation of his Guardians among themselves about how they wonder if they still could trust him anymore. Went to his office, he trashed everything over until collapsed and was sent to the hospital, which left him almost a month hospitalization. That was when his PAs came by and suggested to him a solution, and making sure that they could provide and taking care of things before he left the family. They would make sure that at least, he has a destination to go after leaving Italy. That was how he ended up went to several cities in North Asia before he came back to Namimori.

Right now, he did not know where to go. After he woke up again due to his frequent nightmare, he pushed the 'Stop' button and stepped down from the bus after reaching the destination. He was all alone, nobody was with him, plus it was mid night so mostly people were already asleep now.

He felt like to cry.

But nobody was there for him.

Because he was a terrible sinner.

No.

He more like a lost traveler, who did know what to do in an isolate place that he barely known; he was send there because of his sin.

And he felt terribly in pain.

He knew nobody would care if he was a lost traveler.

After all, he was all alone.

It was his decision to leave the family.

Because he knew, nobody would ever forgive him for the crime that everyone believed he did.

Perhaps, Reborn too.

They thought that he really assaulted the woman, that's why they hated him.

They would happily forget about him too.

Why should he kept on remain at the place where everyone treated him like a stranger, especially his own Family?

So he left, and became the lost traveler.

Even in the place he once was belonging.

Leaving everything behind what had shaped him into the current him.

In the end, he was alone.

Without any destination to go.

He started to feel dizzy; it seemed like the stress and pressure he felt from the whole incident had caused him to have a migraine. He felt painful throbbing started to torture him merciless, and he walked limply, not aware where he was going.

He did not realize that he was in the middle of the road that he very familiar.

He was in front of the gate of his own house, once that he stayed before he became the Vongola Boss.

He only saw a bright light that suddenly appeared in front of him, when he heard the voice that he missed so much, especially after what had happened.

"Tsu-kun?" Tsuna stared at his mother, who stood at the door with eyes wider than usual. "Tsu-kun? What are you doing here? I thought that you…"

Nana was unable to finish her words, as Tsuna suddenly ran towards her and hugged her tightly. Cries slowly heard from the young man, who was sobbing uncontrollable. Nana, confused with what had happened, just let her motherly instinct took over and wrapped her son gently.

"Tsu-kun, what's wrong?" She asked gently, when her eyes landed on his luggage and backpack. Nana narrowed her eyes as she realized something must have gone wrong, "Did something happen? Why do you bring your luggage here?"

Tsuna shook his head as he buried his face on his mother's chest, acting like a small child who tried to seek comfort from his mother. Both of the mother and son sat on the ground, and Nana could feel that her son was trembling terribly. She knew something wrong had happened, but she decided to wait until Tsuna spoke to her, shaking.

"Kaa-san…" Tsuna said, tried to stop crying but fail. "I don't want to go back…"

"Eh?"

"I want to stay with you! I don't want to go back!" He cried, as he tightened his grip on Nana. "Please don't leave me alone…"

"Please don' leave me 'kaa-san, I'm scared…"

"I'm scared…"

I'm so scared to be alone…

Such small and fragile child, Nana was unable to say anything. She just nodded her head as she gently held her son, who was crying over and over again. She knew something worst had fallen on her son and nobody was there for him, not even her husband; no wonder why Tsuna was shaken terribly.

There is no way she would allow anyone, even Iemitsu, to get away from this. She would protect her son even if it's cost her life.

She wouldn't abandoned her own son, that's for sure.


Chapter 3 finally done, but I feel a bit awkward. The truth is, I finish this chapter first before I complete the second chapter. I wonder if it's because that this chapter is more easier to write than the second chapter. Ideas bloom like mushrooms after the heavy rain, so I'm stuck at this chapter before finishing the previous chapter.

I remember that there's train journey that went across Europe and went to Moscow, Russia. I don't remember the names or the cities that the train come across, but I know there should be some trains that follow this route. If any of you know about these trains please tell me. Also, North Asia is Russia. If you don't believe my word, feel free to look at the map. Russia is the largest country in Asia.

I also want to highlight here, that the air steward and stewardess are the words that I learned when I was in primary school; it's the same as flight attendant or cabin attendant. The English that I learn in my country (Malaysia) is 'Queen British', not American. Readers should know that there are some differences between Queen British and American English, so please don't tell me that some of my words and spelling are wrong, because it is not American English.

Thank you to those who are reading and reviewing my story. Please, don't forget to leave a review. –Aoi Kitsukawa-
