"Tsuna what would you do if you face to face with humans?"
"Ran as fast as I could."
"Correct. What if they tried to cornering you?"
"Distract them with fake growl, and pounch onto them that look like I want to attack then I ran away."
"Very good. The last thing, what if the plan doesn't work, what would you do?"
"Umm.. Attack them and possible killed them?" Tsuna didn't like it, he better to ran away rather than face and killed them.
"Yes, that's right my beloved kit." His father take him closer and nuzzling him with such love manner.
"But papa I don't like it." Tsuna pouted at his father. "Why do we need to kill?"
"Because we have to be the first one who did it before them. You do know that?"
Now Tsuna laying on his back between his father's front legs, he staring hopelessly at the blue eyes.
"I know.. but what if they're a nice human? Because we don't know-"
"Tsuna." His father's stern voice made him immediately shut his muzzle. "All humans are cruel, greedy and thirst for power, They'll not showed any compassion when they see us, even when we are in danger or injured."
"But you don't know that! Do you already meet them all?!"
"Enough. Tsunayoshi." Iemitsu stand up and Tsuna quickly following after, his father's face was hard as he staring down at his. They keep staring each other until Iemitsu gave up and let out a heavy sigh.
"I don't need to meet them all to see the truth about humans. I live longer than you so I have alots of experience with them, I watch my family member being killed by them. I just don't want losing you." Iemitsu didn't want to show his weakness infront of his family but he can't hide his emotion very well when its about family.
Guilty consuming the young kitsune when he sees his father in pain. He walk closer until his head bumping into his father's long leg. "I promised I won't go anywhere papa and you have to promised to me too do not leave me alone."
"I promised." Iemitsu said without hesitate, giving a long hug.
You promised me to always be there but in the end you break your promised. What kind of father you are.
{Scene change}
Tsuna was playing hide and seek with Kaeda and Kai and too into it made him accidently hiding too far from his den and he just realizing when he can't smell the other kit. He tried to calling his dad or mom with cries but nothing happen, no familiar form, no comforting scent, nothing. He's completely lost.He curled down under the trees hoping his family find him here.
"What young kitsune herbivore doing in our territory?" Sudden deep voice startling him, he instinctively stood up, ready to fight.
Tsuna couldn't help staring in awe, infront of him is byakko a tiger spirit but still young, maybe as young as him. He has white with black stripe just like what his father describe them and he has narrow gray eyes. This's the first time he met with another yokai.
"Herbivore stop staring at me and start explaining why you were here? Or I'll bitten you to death." Threatened him.
"Hiee.. Please don't kill me! I just lost.. I was playing hide and seek with my friends and accidently hide too far from the other." Explain Tsuna frantically. He flinch when the other spirit gave him a hard stare.
"Hn. It's better for you to find your way back to your pack then, because it will be rain soon."
Rain? Tsuna looked up to see the sky are cloudy. His body trembeling in fright thinking if he'll be alone with rain pouring down from the sky.
"Or you can stay with me until your family found you." Added the byakko.
Tsuna snap his head to stare at the tiger with wide teary eyes. "Really?"
"Hn and stop staring at me like that or I'll change my mind." Growled the byakko feeling disturbed.
Tsuna complied but his tail still swinging back and forth. "The name is Tsuna. Kitsune yokai."
"Kyoya. Byakko yokai."
"Nice meeting ya Kyoya!" Tsuna said happily while Kyoya only whispering 'hn' before start walking to the opposite way.
Tsuna clumsily following Kyoya when a thunder appears. He flatened his ears against its head. God he hates thunder. "Where are we going?"
"To my secret hideout. I am the only one known about this."
"Even your pack?"
"Hn."
They go to a higher place until it reach a largest brick. Tsuna stopped his step and stare incrediously at Kyoya when he passed the big rock as if there's nothing and disappeared.What the god of kitsune I just see?
"Herbivore until when you will stand there like a fool?" Kyoya's voice sounded muffled but pretty clear for him to still understand.
"How I do that?"
"Just stepped into the bricks."Tsuna walked over and do what Kyoya told him. When he step inside, the temprature suddenly dropping but thank to his thick coat because he doesn't feel cold at all.
"Woah."
The place is so wide, compared his place and this, this's the winner. And not only that he can see why the temprature are dropping in here, the cave surroundings by ice glacier, so mesmerizing place.
"How.. How do you find this place?"
"I don't know. I just find it." Kyoya laying down, resting his head on the ground while watching Tsuna in amusement.
"That's weird thought." mumble Tsuna, he approach his new friend and lay down beside him. "I mean you said there's no one known about this place, no humans, yokai or another creature but you. Its like this cave want you to be the one who find it or like the cave invite you in. Maybe that's why you're the only who had been in here."
"Hn. I never thought about that before." His friend answered calmly made him sweatdrop.
"But why?"Hibari glance at him seems confused by his question but remaind quite."You said you never told anyone about this cave but why someone stranger like me are being invited to this place? I mean we're totally stranger and we only knows our names but why are y-"
"You talk too much, herbivore." Snap Kyoya, "And I don't know."
"Hmm.. hey maybe this's fate."
"... I'm straight."
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEAN!"
"Hn."
That's how he meet with another yokai for the first time. Actually, he never told his family about this meetings, Kyoya already left when his father found him in the morning in the exact place where him and Kyoya first met before they going to the secret hideout. And for some reasons he have this feelings if our meeting is not the last, someday they both will meet again.
{Present}
Tsuna feel like himself floating. He don't know if he was shutting his eyes or not because the place is too dark. Where he is anyway, how's his family, mama, Sora-nii, Kaeda, Kai, all of the pack, are they survive? Are they manage to escape from the explosion? Are they still alive? Those question in his head stressed him out.
He don't want to believe if they're dead even his feeling said so. He didn't want to believe it at all, he's not ready to live alone after all.
If this darkness feels so warm and comfortable, he decide to stay here forever.
But, is this the best choice at all? like a coward hiding for safety and don't want to face the problem. His father will be dissapointed on him or Sora-nii will scold him or maybe Kyoya will bit him to death if they met eachother for being such a coward herbivore. He inwardly chuckle at the though. He missed his byakko friend even if he's a jerk and always replying with short reply.
In the end, Tsuna dicided to wake up. At first it was really hard for him to do it because it feels like something holding his eyes to keep it shut. But slowly finally he manage to opened it.
Slowly one by one his system going back to him from hearing, smelling, tasting, feeling and the last eyesight.
The bright light of the sun immediately attacked the nerves of his eyes, making him have to blink a few times to adjusting.
He thought the first he woke up he'll be facing ground and trees not weird cave or something. And he should be laying on the cold and hard ground not in warm and comfort thing.
He tried to standing but find himself couldn't move his legs. He look over to see something covering his body. In panic he tried to free himself when feeling something went closer made him freeze.
He felt himself being lifted from the ground and turn his body around to facing a.. A HUMAN?!
Oh my kitsune! His soul seemed to drift away from his body slowly. He didn't expecting to face another human this fast.
He tried to escape by wriggling freely from the grasp, well Tried. It's easy said than done.
"Stay still, cucciolo." Scold the human unexpectedly made him go limp.
How he can understand our language or all do humans speak with the same language as ours? Well, except for cucciolo, what does it mean?
"Ah reborn you even made a yokai afraid of you!" A loud laugh from the new voice made him flinch and shrunk into the warm thing, hope it would just swallow him. He eyeing the laughing human warily until another stranger, a girl one whacked the human man's head and he couldn't help but winched.
"Shut up you damn ass, you made him scared!" The woman scolded the man.
Too daze to react before everything is too late,
"Hey, don't worry about that stupid lackey ne, kora." A sudden blonde human appeared so close to his face showing a creepy smile, smiling so wide showing full of teeth. He squeak loudly and begin trashed violently from the grip. He bit the man who was holding him, instinctively releasing his grip in surprised. The thing that wrapped on him, falls to the ground.
He bolted away without any direction, try to find a way out.
"Closed all the door and windows! Don't let him escape!"
Those words only make it worst. Tsuna never felt so depressed like this before. Every time he managed to find a way out, the humans immediately closed it before he could reach it!
A huge net came towards him but just in time he dodge it before the thing can captured him. Thanks for his good reflection.
Jump into those glasses
What?
I said jump you idoit, or you want them catch your ass?!
No, I still want alive, so he did it. Tsuna ran to the nearest glasses ignoring the humans shout then let his body hit the glass until it broken to pieces. Finally free, he bolted away from the human's cave, running as fast as his small legs can take.
{Switch vision/character}
"God damnit he's getting away." Cursed Shamal while Viper going back to his room mumbling about 'I didn't being pay for this.'
A sounds of gun fired before following with scream made everyone on guard, they're looking for the sound only to find Reborn pointing his green gun to certain blonde man. The head of the gun's almost touching colonello forehead.
"You and your foolish action never stop amaze me."
Colonello with his hands held to the air, he glance at other begging for help until cold gun poking his forehead makes him flinch.
"I want you and Lackey go find that yokai."
"Why me too?!" Protest Skull.
"Because you're the first one being foolish around and you laughing at me."
"But Reborn, I didn't mean-"
"Shut your mouth baka-nello or do you want my bullets on your head?" Colonello shaking his head rapidly and took step back.
"Alright alright, we're going now."
Without second though Colonello dragging Skull out with him. He'd better go look for the fox instead of having to deal with an angry hitman.
"Reborn isn't that too much?" Asked Aria as she staring to the pair that running for his life.
"No."
"And I think this's the best way for them to learn." Continue Fon, helping Lal clean the glass flakes on the floor.
"But still.."
"Just let them be. This's their fault after all. You can't awalys think of them as children Aria because they don't. They can take care of themself."
"Listen what the green scientist said, Aria." Reborn said as he checking his watch before going to his room to change into his suit.
"I'm going."
"Wait Reborn you can't just leave like that." Aria chased Reborn who already far ahead.
"I'll be back at dinner. I just want to meet someone."
"... Umm if you met them can you tell them to go home before night?"
"Hn."
"Thanks. becareful Reborn." Aria said cheerfully.
No one can stop her for being worried toward us, huh. What a naive and foolish woman, Amused Reborn.
"It's been awhile, I hope the old geezer still alive."
{Back to Tsuna}
A young inugami was strolling around the street, sometimes he had to stop to greet the children of humans who wants to play with him. Human child is different with older one, they welcome him like ordinary pets. They willing to play with him without have to be worried being kicked.
His father was the leader of the pack until a stranger that much younger than him challenge him to be the next leader. His father was among the strongest in inugami clan but because of his old age made him tired easly. And because of that you can figure it out who's the winner.
They kicked his father out of the pack. Cruel? True, but thats how the rules goes, loser had two choise, left from the group voluntarily or with violence.
Well, for him. He still can stay with the pack because his father's the only one being kicked out of the pack, but he decide to follow him and out of the group.
He never regret his decision. He love his father dearly after his mother died left them both.
The young inugami almost ready going back to his father when he smell something unfimiliar. At first, he's feel hesitant to know where this scent came from, but in the end because of high curiosity he decide to investigating.
The scent took him to an empty house then lead him to the upstair before going left to an old room.
"Hello, is anyone there?" He called carefully afraid to make anyone/anything scared by his existance.
A small grow and whimper could be heard under the bed, so he came closer and bent down to look better.
"Don't be afraid I'm not gonna hurt you. And.. I'm not humans." He don't know why he say that but he felt he had to do it.
Finally after took awhile to convince the poor thing, he/she came out of the bed.
"O-oh."
A bright orange-yellow staring back to his black one.
