Disclaimer: Here we go! I do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn! The characters, Sistema C.A.I, the mini bombs, Ten Year Bazooka are all Akira Amano's. I hoped they release the manga in my country though. So I won't have to read it via PC and thus increasing my eyes' minus.

Warning: Some killing here. And the characters are not teens anymore. It's the Mafia, you know. What do you think it will be? The Mafia's not a game.

Chapter 2 Arrived From the Future

The school was empty when he arrived. Some of the Disciplinary Committee members were checking the bullet holes where the bullet the sniper had shot hit. Gokudera hid himself inside the school and scanned the rooftop. No one.

When his ears caught a small click from above, he quickly dodged the bullet and hid behind the large tree. He lit up one of his smallest bombs and threw it to where the sniper hid. A small yelp and a loud bang confirmed the sniper's location. The small explosion caused a small fire at the tree where the sniper was.

Gokudera reached inside his jacket to the silver gun he had to keep if he couldn't use his dynamites, mini bombs, or box weapons (he didn't have them now). He had to use it when some foolish assassins attacked the Tenth under his nose. It was faster that lighting up his dynamite or charging up his flames to open box weapons.

He didn't like the gun though. It was too loud when he had to do some secret missions. It always felt so weird when he had to put the silencer before he shot whoever was unlucky enough to be his target. But now he needed it. The sniper would cause some mishap if left alive.

He got out from hiding and pointed the gun at the poor bastard who was still struggling to put out the fire that had caught his suit. He didn't even blink when the bullet reached its target: the back of the sniper's head.

Gokudera immediately holstered his gun back and jumped off the school wall before the Disciplinary Committee arrived. He stayed there for a while, listening for any sound.

"I think he was the one who released the shot a while ago. It looks like he is dead, Kyou-san." Gokudera perked up his ears when he heard the voice. It was Kusakabe, Hibari's assistant from the Disciplinary Committee. It meant that Hibari was just behind the wall.

"Tetsu! Round up your men and search for any suspicious person." It was Hibari's voice. "I will have to bite that person to death for killing my prey."

Gokudera gritted his teeth and fought back the urge to jump back behind the wall and strangle Hibari's neck. When he heard the Disciplinary Committee led by Kusakabe Tetsuya began their search, he moved as quickly and as silently as possible. He didn't need to attract more attention.

He dashed into the other direction: the baseball pitch. If he was lucky, the baseball idiot would be there practicing.

When he arrived at the pitch and hid behind a tree, panting and out of breath, he saw the baseball idiot in the middle of the pitch, holding his bat and ready to hit the ball about to be thrown by one of his friends. A pack of milk hung from his mouth. Then he heard some voices from the other side of the tree. Girls' voices.

"I really wonder where Tsuna-kun and Gokudera-kun went to," said the shoulder length haired girl in a low voice, Kyoko, the younger Kyoko to be exact. Gokudera's heart beat faster when he saw the other girl.

"I hope they're alright. Hahi…And Reborn-chan is missing too…"

Haru… Younger Haru. His wife's younger self was in front of him. He didn't seem to remember that he was supposed to be hiding right then, when he come out and ran to embrace his wife. Scratch that, his wife's younger self.

When a loud "HAHIIIIIEEEEK!!" and a hard slap landed on his cheek, he mentally slapped himself for acting too quick.

"Who are you?!" Haru screamed. "How dare you hug Haru like that?!"

Lambo and I-pin, (why were they not in the house?) who were just running around stopped and watched Haru scream her lungs out at him.

"It's the octopus-head!" Lambo declared when he saw him. Haru and Kyoko gasped and looked at him from head to toe.

"Tch!" he spat. "Shut up, stupid cow!" Gokudera scratched his head and curse himself. How could he act so stupid? Now what's he going to tell them?

Suddenly, a light bulb turned on in his head. He grabbed Lambo and inspected his hair. "Hey, stupid cow! Where's your Ten Year Bazooka?"

"Lambo-san doesn't know anything about a Ten Year Bazooka!" answered Lambo.

"Hahi! What are you doing to Lambo-chan!" Haru screamed. She snatched Lambo back and threw him a suspicious look. "Who are you anyway?"

"Haru-chan… I think we have to call Yamamoto-kun," Kyoko said. She picked I-pin up and both she and Haru ran towards Yamamoto.

"Tch!" Gokudera spat. He couldn't look away too long because his ears caught a whirling sound from above. He shot his gaze upwards and cursed at the two big bullets he recognized as the Ten Year Bazooka's missiles.

Gokudera ran as fast as he could but it was too late. One of the bullets hit Yamamoto and a puff of pink smoke engulfed his body. The second bullet hit Haru, Kyoko, I-pin and Lambo. More pink smoke engulfed them.

Yamamoto's baseball friend froze when he saw what had happened. When the pink smoke cleared and revealed Yamamoto, Haru, Kyoko, I-pin and Lambo from ten years later, he dropped his ball and ran away.

"Wha…?"

"Hahi?"

Gokudera held his breath. Yamamoto looked like he was ready to retrieve something with his left hand while his right hand held the sword. Lambo and I-pin looked tired and they had wounds all over their bodies. Kyoko sat on the ground holding her ankle. And Haru… his Haru…

"Hahi?" Haru cocked her head when she saw the surroundings. "Where's Tsuna-san?"

"Gokudera?" Yamamoto called. "You've grown again?"

"Gokudera-shi!" "Gokudera-san!" Lambo and I-pin looked really happy when they saw him.

Gokudera was too stunned to react. By the look of the situation, they must be in the middle of a battle. His heart pounded loudly. He was too afraid to think about what would happen with their younger self when they arrived in the future. What was going to happen to the younger Tenth if Yamamoto was sent here?!

"Hahi!!" Haru screamed. "Hayato!" She ran in his direction.

Gokudera couldn't move when she finally stood in front of him. Her big smile made him forgot all his worries for a bit then. She spread her arms wide and he hugged her. "Haru…" He whispered in her hair. After almost three months not seeing her and only hearing her voice over the phone, he felt his empty heart had been filled again.

"I've been wondering where you've been, Hayato," Haru said while holding her tears back. "I thought something bad happened to you…"

Gokudera patted her head and let her cry silently in his chest. He understood why she cried though. She was happy and so was he. "Don't worry. I'm alright as you can see. There's nothing that could kill me." He kissed her forehead and looked deep into her teary eyes. It said don't talk about bad things like that! He cupped his hand in her cheek and then leaned down to kiss her. Her small sobs stopped immediately.

As he savored his wife's lips he wondered how he could've lived without seeing her after they got married. Their lips moved fluidly against each other, filling their thirst for each other for the past three months. His hand traced back to her short hair and the other held her waist steady. Her hands were pulling his neck down so she didn't have to tip-toe.

They broke off when a loud "Ahem!" came from Yamamoto. Haru let out a small 'Hahi!' and Gokudera cast Yamamoto an annoyed look that said 'What do you want, idiot?'

"I don't mean to disturb you and your wife's lovey-dovey time. But, it really isn't the best time." Yamamoto pointed to Kyoko, Lambo and I-pin's direction. "We have some casualties."

Kyoko was massaging her ankle and I-pin was trying to help her take her boots off. Lambo was trying not to move around too much.

"Hahi!" Haru slipped out from Gokudera's embrace and ran towards Kyoko. "Kyoko-chan! Are you, okay? What happened to your leg?"

"I think I sprained it when I fell in the warehouse," Kyoko said. "Where are we anyway? Where's Tsu-kun?"

Gokudera cast a questioning look to Yamamoto. Yamamoto frowned as he approached Kyoko and the others.

"We were sent to the past, Sasagawa," Yamamoto began to explain. "This is Namimori ten years ago."

"Not exactly ten years," Gokudera corrected him. "I've checked. We were sent nine years and ten months back. Today's 28th October."

"But, that's impossible, Gokudera-shi!" Lambo interjected. "The Ten Year Bazooka should have sent us ten years back."

"I know that! That's what I've been trying to investigate. Blame your stupid younger self for this whole mess!" Gokudera shouted at Lambo; his blood pressure seemed to go up due to lack of sleep and anxiety.

"What's a Ten Year Bazooka?" asked Haru.

Gokudera, Yamamoto, and Lambo looked at her and then looked at each other, obviously thinking of what they should say. Kyoko and Haru didn't know too much about the Mafia thing. Especially Kyoko; Tsuna (the older Tsuna) had been particularly strict about not to involving his fiancée. Tsuna understood when Gokudera told him he had no reason to hide anything from his wife, though. He let Gokudera tell Haru bits about his work in the Mafia.

But they never explained when Lambo would occasionally disappear and switch with his annoying younger self. Now… they had no choice but to explain everything.

"I think Lambo would be the best person to explain," said Yamamoto sheepishly. "You guys have a little talk while Gokudera and I discuss what we're going to do next, okay?"

Lambo looked like he was going to faint at that moment. He sighed defeatedly as I-pin grabbed his hand, pulled him down and said, "You've owned it for your whole life! You're the one who has to explain!"

Yamamoto chuckled watching the teens while Gokudera just 'Tch'-ed and started to smoke. As Lambo began to explain about the Ten Year Bazooka, Yamamoto walked over to Gokudera's direction.

"What happened to all of you?" Gokudera asked in a low voice.

"We were attacked by Black Spell," Yamamoto answered. "Lambo and I-pin were just about to secure both women to our underground base when two of the Black Spell attacked them. Luckily, Tsuna, younger you and I were on our way out of the base to find Hibari."

"Was the Tenth all right?" Gokudera couldn't hide his panic hearing Yamamoto's answer. "Are the Black Spell strong?"

"We were separated when Tsuna was trying to find Sasagawa. I just hope your younger self will be able to use the box weapon and save us… I mean our younger selves…" Yamamoto paused for a moment and let out a small sigh. "It's really confusing!"

"I bet it did for your tiny brain," Gokudera growled. "Anything you could tell me other than that?"

"The little guy's in the future too. And… we found a little bit information about Hibari's current location. We thought that he finally came back to Namimori. At least Hibird is," Yamamoto replied.

"Tch! That crazy bastard better be there and protect the Tenth." Gokudera looked at the four people in front of them. Lambo had finished explaining about the Ten Year Bazooka. As he expected, Haru looked really confused and so did Kyoko. What the fucking hell was he going to do now?!

"What are we going to do with them?" Yamamoto asked as if reading his mind. "And on second thought… Do you know who shot the Bazooka? By our current position when we first arrived, it's not Lambo who shot it. Do you have any ideas?"

Gokudera turned his head around sharply to face Yamamoto. His eyes looked as if they were about to pop out. "We have to go away!" Gokudera hissed at Yamamoto. "There was an assassin a while ago! I don't know who the hell shot the bazooka, but it's time we were out of their sight!"

He ran towards the group and smacked Lambo's head. "Oi! Stupid cow! Help Kyoko and follow me! We have to go way from here ASAP!" Gokudera ordered. Lambo and I-pin looked confused but did as he told them. Yamamoto quickly pulled Kyoko onto his back and the four of them ran from the baseball pitch.

"Hahi? What's wrong, Hayato? Where are we going?" Haru asked, confused. Gokudera didn't answer but grabbed her wrist and followed Yamamoto.

"I have no time to explain, Haru!" he hissed while glancing all over the place looking for something, someone, or anything that threatened their lives.

"Where are we going?" Yamamoto asked when they reached a more secluded area. He put Kyoko down and told I-pin to take care of her. "Maybe we could go to Tsuna's house," he suggested.

That was what Gokudera said to Bianchi a while ago. But he meant to bring the others' younger selves, not these adults.

"We can't!" Gokudera said. "What do you think we're going to say to Boss' mother if we go there? I'm sorry your son is dead. We were followed by some assassins. Could we stay here for a while?" He immediately regretted his words when he realized the women were looking at him with disbelief.

"Hahi?!" Haru shook her head. "What are you saying, Hayato? What do you mean? I just saw Tsuna-san a while ago!"

"Tsu-kun…is dead?" Kyoko mumbled. She looked questioningly at Yamamoto and Gokudera.

"I…" Gokudera was lost for words. He didn't dare to look at Kyoko right now. He glanced at Yamamoto.

"Maybe we should find some place first," Yamamoto said, breaking the silence. "After that we'll tell you everything."

Gokudera mumbled a silent thanks to Yamamoto. "We should avoid any place that could involve civilians. Do you think Cavallone is still here?"

"If what you said about the time is true, it should be still around the time after the ring battle. I think they're still here," Yamamoto said, looking at him with a raised eyebrow. "You want to seek their help?"

"I won't, if you could give me another idea. We have no fucking choice!" Gokudera' expression told Yamamoto that he'd rather die than ask for someone else's help. Vongola the Tenth's Right Hand man would never ask for another family's help, Gokudera once said to Yamamoto.

"If you say so," Yamamoto conceded. "Do you still remember where the Cavallone's secret clinic facility?"

"Of course I do, moron!" Gokudera grabbed Haru again and walked more slowly this time. "Follow me. We have to meet the Cavallone's Tenth Boss."


Author's Note:

Big thank you for those who have reviewed and alerted. Now I understand why lots of fanfic writers love reviews. XP

The silver gun: I decided to give Gokudera a gun. Before any of you say anything, I'll explain it: just like Gokudera had said himself, all of his weapons of choice took time to be used, even the almighty Sistema C.A.I. So what if one day, he and his beloved boss were being attacked by some stupid people, who thought theycould take down the Vongola Decimo along with his right hand, and he didn't have time to do anything because the stupid assassins have their guns pointed at his beloved boss' head? Clicking a gun and shooting it is much faster than flipping out his dynamite and lighting them with his cigarette. And what if he's not smoking at that time? It's faster than getting the box out and charging it with his Storm Flame. By the time the Flame Arrow was ready, his Boss would've been dead.

The wife: … is Haru. I really love to see their relationship. It's a kind of relationship where you would bicker all day but actually care deeply for each other. Maybe I'll write a chapter of how they got together.

The next chapter will be up some days from now. Have to add some more details and fix some problems. Writing this really makes my day XD

Reading your reviews will definitely make me happy! Flames are used to burn Gokudera's cigarette, dynamite and box weapons to let Uri out of its box. (I will let Uri out sometime in the future! … maybe…)
