Second chapter... It would be nice if you guys reviewed... But I don't blame 'ya since I know a lot of people don't like stories with OCs haha~ Thanks for bothering about this story anyway!

Enjoy and Review!

" Why am I here again?... " Tsukiyo whined. She sat in front of a large desk, Bermuda behind it. " Looks like it's my turn to cut you a deal. We will help you hone your skills in return for bringing Lorenzo Benigno to justice. "

That felt more like a command...

" Also, you have to work for us- "

" What? Work for you? Like hell I will! " Tsukiyo folded her arms, glaring at the other man.

" It will be like a freelance thing, you don't have to worry about not having a normal life. As I was saying, if you don't agree, Sawada Tsunayoshi and his guardians will probably be killed by him. You want to help him, don't you? By the way, you might also get to know about your past... " Tsukiyo hesitated for a moment before agreeing. For the sake of Tsuna and my memories...

" Good, then let the training begin. "

~~~~~~~.

" Something is very wrong... " Tsuna mumbled. His hyper intuition was ringing like crazy but he didn't know what was going on.

" Kufufufu... Tsunayoshi, have you seen the skylark around? "

" Get away from juudaime, you bastard! " Gokudera yelled, jumping in front of Tsuna protectively with his arms outstretched.

" Ah! That's it! Something happened to Hibari! He hasn't been in school for three days! " Tsuna exclaimed.
Mukuro looked at Tsuna inquisitively. " And what do you think has happened to him? "

" I... I don't know... "

" Hey Tsuna! I heard that there was an explosion in school near the rooftop stairs last Saturday! " Yamamoto reported, returning from his baseball practice.

" Ehhh? Isn't that when Hibari disappeared? " Tsuna panicked, even though he knew that Hibari was the strongest among them. Still, Tsuna was Tsuna, meaning that he worries about all his guardians.

" What? Does that mean that the stupid disciplinary committee leader was targeted? " shouted Gokudera, immediately turning around when he felt a tap on his shoulder.

As the person cleared his throat, he asked, " I don't know why I'm asking you this, but have you seen Kyo-san? "

" Kusukabe! " Tsuna jumped back. " Even you don't know? "

" I wanted to ask him about the explosion but he was nowhere to be found. It is very strange of him to not return after so many days. "

" Oya? The skylark is gone from Nanimori? Kufufufu, the world must be turning in the wrong direction. " the illusionist smirked, as he turned to leave.

" Mukuro, wait. " a child-like voice called out.

" Reborn! " Tsuna shrieked as the arcobaleno landed on his head with a resounding thud.

" Ciaossu. It seems that Hibari is really missing. "

" Oh no... " Tsuna bit his lower lip. " What are we going to do? "

" We'll gather at Tsukiyo's place later. Don't be late. " Mukuro just shrugged his shoulders and sauntered off.

~~~~~~~.

" Why are you always gathered here? This is not like some meeting base! " Deimos complained, a book in hand as he stared at the Sun arcobaleno who was sipping tea peacefully.

" You guys are in it too. " Reborn said, watching Tsuna and his guardians enter.

" Where's onii-san? He should have been here ten minutes ago... "

" I bet that idiot forgot! " grumbled Gokudera. Another fifteen minutes had passed but Ryohei still hadn't showed up. Lambo was getting restless and Tsuna became worried yet again.

" Do you think something has happened to him?... " That possibility was very high, considering that Hibari was missing now.

" We shall have to get on with the meeting then. " said Reborn.

~~~~~~~.

" Alright! Off to meet Sawada and the others to the extreme! " Ryohei shouted, pumping his fists into the air and running at full speed.

" Hah, such an easy target, " a man in the bushes said to himself, aiming the sniper at Ryohei.

Bang.

Ryohei suddenly vanished into thin air.

~~~~~~~.

" That explosion in school could have been linked to the skylark's disappearance. " Mukuro said as he made himself comfortable. " Also, I may have been targeted. "

Tsuna's eyes widened, " What? Why didn't you tell us earlier? "

" Kufufufu... Don't get so agitated, Tsunayoshi. I can protect myself just fine. I was on the way back when I felt that someone was watching me, so I made an illusion of myself to trick him and as naive as he was, he fell for it. " Mukuro smirked, thinking back. " I got rid of him and unloaded the bullets he had in his sniper. Here. " he rummaged through his pocket and took out two silver bullets with blue tips, dropping them on the table. Reborn picked up one of them and inspected it. As he looked closer at the unfamiliar bullet, he knitted his brows and the group became slightly apprehensive.

" Is there something wrong? " Mukuro asked, guessing that that was the question everyone had on their mind.

" This is not an ordinary bullet for killing. It's a special type, much like the dying will bullet and the possession bullet. "

" Wha... What? Now he's creating special bullets? " he panicked.

Reborn sighed and shook his head. " Dame-Tsuna, he's an inventor, he invents. "

" What does it do? " Yamamoto inquired.

" Don't know. Let's try it shall we? " Reborn said as he loaded his gun and pointed it at his student.

" HIEEEE!... Noooo! "

" Just kidding. We have to send it to the Vongola to analyse it. " Tsuna gave a sigh of relief and slumped back down in his seat. Suddenly, a strange feeling rose in his chest and he felt uneasy.
" Something's wrong, I can feel it... " He mumbled, standing up and making his way towards the door. When he opened the door, he quickly ran out. The others were bewildered and chased after him.

" Tsuna? What's wrong? "

" Juudaime! "

" No way... Onii-san... " Tsuna bent down and picked something up. He turned to the others and opened his hand, revealing a bullet casing and an arm band. " That belongs to Ryohei... " Everyone was shocked and just gaped at the items.

" Kufufufu... I think I know what has happened to them... They were teleported to another dimension. " Looks of horror appeared on their faces as they processed the information.

" What the hell! How can that be possible? "

" He did say he was the greatest inventor ever lived... "

" Where could they have been teleported to? "

" Anywhere. Be it a volcano, the sea or another country. This means that we're all targets. Everyone, be on your guard. " Reborn warned. The guardians nodded and left on their separate ways, observing their surroundings more carefully than ever.

~~~~~~~.

Tch, what is this place?... Hibari thought as he got up from the ground and dusted himself. The sharp Hibari had acted quickly by jumping back upon realising that there was a bomb beneath him but at that point, he had mysteriously blacked out and now he had woken up to a strange place. He observed his surroundings and realised that he wasn't in Nanimori anymore. Suddenly, a scream was heard and it got louder and louder. Hibari tilted his head upwards and took a step back, allowing the thing that just fell from the sky to smash head-on with the ground.

" That was EXTREME! " Ryohei shouted as he jumped up and patted himself down like nothing had happened. " Hey Hibari! What a coincidence! "

" This is not a coincidence, noisy herbivore. " he growled. " Where are we? "

" I don't know! I was running to the meeting when suddenly, BANG! and BOOM! I ended up here! "

Ryohei explained, flailing his arms for emphasis. Hibari just frowned and walked off. " Hey, can I follow you? " No reply. " Okay thanks! " running to catch up with Hibari who just rolled his eyes and continued walking.

Their surroundings were unfamiliar; they were in some forest with widely spread trees, giving ample light and shade. It was peaceful and the only sound there was were the trees rustling in the wind. However, that peace was short-lived when another ear-piercing scream was heard. Both looked up and saw a black and white lump dive towards them, crashing into Ryohei.

" Gwaaaaaah!... Must... Tolerate... " Lambo mumbled. " I want mama! Lambo wants mama! " he cried, destroying the silence.

" Be quiet, herbivore, or else I'll bite you to death. " Hibari growled, giving off a deadly aura. With that, Lambo immediately shut up, staying as close to Ryohei as he possibly could.

After trekking for an hour or so, they chanced upon a campsite. Hiding behind the trees, Hibari looked around. No one. Hmph, they can't even take care of their campsite properly. Smirking, he moved stealthily toward the tents and grabbed some of the food. Ryohei's jaw dropped, " Hibari! That's stealing! "
" Shut up herbivore, desperate times call for desperate measures. Would you rather die of starvation here? This should be their punishment for leaving their place unattended. " They quickly finished their food and went on their way again.

~~~~~~~.

" Nagi, what would you like for dinner tonight? " Mukuro asked with a smile.

" I don't know... We should ask Ken and Chikusa first... "

" This time, it's your turn to choose. Don't let those idiots decide all the time, they would probably say pizza or convenience store food anyway. " he said sternly.

" Ahh, okay then... I'll have- "

" Nagi! Duck! " He shouted as they both fell to the ground. Gunshots were heard, causing panic in the restaurant. The customers were running about like headless chickens and strangely, no one got hurt. Mukuro looked up and what he saw surprised him. The bullet went straight through the people but no one was injured. It was like the bullets only hit specific targets... That's it! Mukuro grabbed Chrome's hand and made an illusion before running out. As he looked over his shoulder, he saw that his illusions were hit and destroyed. Kufufu... Looks like my hunch was right. Time to find Tsunayoshi and the baby...

As they ran through the streets, the gunshots became softer and softer and they slowed down. However, a man jumped in front of them and start to shoot. " Hah! The others before me failed but I will succeed! "

" Nagi! " he shouted, pushing her away, resulting in Mukuro getting hit.

" Mukuro-sama! "

" Tell them that the bullets only attack those with elements... " he faded off, leaving Chrome alone.

" Mukuro-sama!... Mukuro-sama... " she turned towards the gunman with her trident in hand but he had already fled. With a determined expression, she ran towards Tsuna's house to pass the important message.

" Boss! Boss! " she cried as she banged the door, looking around nervously.

" C... Chrome? What are you doing here? " Tsuna said, pulling the trembling girl in.

" Mukuro-sama... He was shot while protecting me and then he disappeared!... He told me to tell you that the bullets do not harm normal people and they only harm those with attributes... "

" Heh? Reborn, what do we do? Even Mukuro is gone!... First Hibari, then Ryohei, Lambo, and now Mukuro... " Tsuna broke off, his hands ruffling through his brown locks.

Reborn had a grave look on his face and was in deep thought. " If they are targeting the Vongola guardians, Chrome should be safe ... Now to worry about you, your Rain and Storm guardians... "

Why is this happening?... Tsuna thought as he held his head in his hands.

~~~~~~~.

" Four down, two to go... " he said, patting a little girl's head.

" Can I destroy them? " she chirped.

" Patience girl, patience... We have to wait for the others... "
