"Say, Reborn, where are you taking me?" Tsuna asked as she eyes Reborn suspiciously. The said tutor had suddenly appeared in front of her and started dragging her somewhere unknown, out of the Black Order. The tutor had refused to tell Tsuna where they were going and had banned the Vongola guardians from following them.
Tsuna had no idea where Reborn was taking her, but she sensed that Reborn had something important to show her.
"I'm busy!" Tsuna continued, frowning a little when Reborn's grip tightened.
"What are you busy about? Trying to plot your revenge against the Black Order?" Reborn sneered, not bothering to turn and look at his student's expression.
For the rest of the journey, Tsuna was silent, wondering how Reborn knew.
"Here we are. We are going to see someone who can help you." Reborn finally spoke, pointing to a small cottage in front of them. At full speed, it had taken both Reborn and Tsuna 2 full hours to reach the peak of the Earth Mountain, their destination.
Mukuro had told Reborn to go to the Earth Mountain's peak to search for Enma, who lived in a small cottage peacefully, up in the mountain.
Reborn had his suspicions whether the man recommended by Mukuro could actually help Tsuna, until the illusionist told him Enma's identity.
Right now, Reborn could only hope that Enma could help Tsuna…
"Why would I need help? I'm perfectly okay!" Tsuna exclaimed, her eyes full of confusion. There was nothing wrong with her! She did not feel sick at all! So why Reborn did brought her here? She did not need any treatment!
The female exorcist struggled against Reborn's grip, in attempt to escape, but it had no effect. Reborn was determined to let Tsuna know the truth.
"This man we are going to see is going to help you understand the truth." Reborn started, his eyes staring straight at Tsuna. Knocking on the cottage's door, Reborn waited for the door to open.
He is here to help you release your anger and sorrow…
"He's going to help me understand the truth? I know the truth! There is no need to side with the Black Order, Reborn! I know what happened!" Tsuna glared at Reborn and snarled, yanking her hand away from Reborn's grip.
However, deep in her heart, the brunette wanted to know the real truth, hoping that the Earl was wrong, that the Black Order had not betrayed Vongola…
Yet, another side of her feared the truth, scared that she was wrong…
Who should she believe?
Creak.
The door opened and a red-haired man stepped out glancing warily at both Tsuna and Reborn.
"May I help you?" the man, Enma, inquired slowly, wondering why he had visitors. It had been years since he last had visitors…
"This is Tsuna, the tenth boss of Vongola. I'm Reborn, her tutor." Reborn introduced as he nodded curtly in greeting. Tsuna, on the other hand, was staring at Reborn blankly, a little shocked. She did not believe that Reborn would give away her identity at the Vongola's boss so easily…to a stranger!
"Tsuna…she's the current Vongola boss? The family is still alive, isn't it? " Enma suddenly allowed himself a small smile as he watched the brown-haired teen before him. Tsuna, staring up at Enma before her, was curious. Did the red-haired man know about the Vongola?
"Please, allow yourself to be comfortable while I make some tea." Enma continued as he invited Tsuna and Reborn into his cottage.
_follow_
"Why are we following them?" Kanda asked harshly as he leaned against a tree trunk, hidden from sight. He did not admit it, but the blue-haired exorcist was quite curious where Reborn was bringing Tsuna, hence he followed the student and tutor.
"Ha, this is fun!" Yamamoto laughed as he stepped out of the shadows of the bushes before stretching his limbs.
"Be quiet, all of you! Reborn had forbidden us to follow him! If we are found out…" Gokudera whispered as he pulled Yamamoto back into their hiding place.
Right now, Yamamoto, Gokudera, Kanda and Hibari were all hiding in the shadows, quietly observing their boss. Although Reborn had told them not to follow, Gokudera was determined to protect Tsuna, his boss…
"Che, I'm not one of the guardians…" Kanda frowned as he crossed his eyes, a little annoyed with himself. He should not have come to the mountain with a bunch of fools.
Hibari, who had his eyes closed, unexpectedly opened them and sat up, his eyes narrowed. He too, had came with the herbivores to look after Tsuna...in case that Reborn...
"I will bite you to death, you herbivores."
_tsuna cottage_
"Enma here is a Shimon member?" Tsuna cried out in surprise when Reborn told her Enma's identity. The exorcist did not expect a Shimon to be still alive!
A Shimon was part of the Shimon family, a close ally of Vongola. For generations, the Shimon and Vongola family had always stood side by side.
Naturally, Tsuna was sure that she could believe Enma's words.
Nodding slightly, Enma began to tell Tsuna what he knew about the battle between the Vongola, Black Order and the Noah family…
_bush_
"Are they coming out soon?" Yamamoto asked cheerfully as he ran a hand through his hand, glancing at the cottage. It had been an hour since Reborn and Tsuna went into the cottage. The rain guardian was beginning to worry for Tsuna's safety.
"Could it be that the boss is in danger?" Gokudera abruptly asked his face full of horror.
Apparently Yamamoto was not the only one who was worried.
Kanda frowned as he tried to ignore Gokudera's worried speech and concentrated on his surroundings.
Earth Mountain was a peaceful place, but Kanda as not too sure whether there it was a completely safe and calm place…
"Hey look, they are out!" Yamamoto's voice got the other three exorcists' attention. All of them turned their gazes to Tsuna and Reborn, who were walking out of the red-haired man's house.
Reborn seemed to look the same, without any changes, but Tsuna seemed to be slightly disturbed.
"Thank you very much, Enma-san, now I know the truth." Tsuna smiled sadly, her brown-eyes looking straight at Enma. Thanks to the Shimon, Tsuna knew that the Earl had been lying to her.
The brunette was quite relieved that her friends did not betray her, but was rather guilty to know that the Vongola was actually the one who deceived Black Order…
It was for a good cause, Enma had stated, yet Tsuna still felt a little embarrassed and remorseful at the same time.
She should not have doubted her friends.
Now that she knew the truth, Tsuna knew what to do next.
She had to face the Earl and the Noah family, as well as to announce her decision to her friends and guardians at the Black Order.
Tsuna was going to leave the Black Order—for good.
