"Well what do you say Ryo? Let's go pay Hime a visit."
X
In a far away mansion a man sat on a red velvet chair his feet prompt up on the table a glass of whisky in his right hand. His face was covered by the shadows and all that could be seen was his grin.
He shook the whisky glass which only had ice left in it, "The curtains has been raised my dear Setsuna."

"Tsuna I hope you know that you are studying extra tonight!"
Tsuna sighed and sweat dropped, "Reborn~ it is Friday! Surely you can let me have one break!"
Yamamoto laughed, "Hey maybe you could give her one break I mean Tsuna's marks have improved greatly since a few months back!"
Reborn looked at the carefree teen next to him; it was true instead of Tsuna failing everything she was now at an average standard.
"She is only scoring above average... and that is unacceptable!"
Dino laughed as Tsuna sighed, "Well how about we do some training tomorrow Reborn? I am curious to see how I will fair against Tsuna in a fight and all!"
Reborn smirked and Tsuna shuddered, "Very well but things will be done my way..."
Dino and Tsuna both sweat dropped at the sudden dark aura emitting from Reborn, "Dino-nii! If I knew you were going to suggest that I would have rather studied extra!"
Dino laughed, "Sorry, sorry!"
Yamamoto only laughed, "Sounds like fun can I join?"
Reborn smirked, "Yes I need to test you as well!"
"But Yamamoto-kun you don't need-
BANG!

With Gokudera
Gokudera walked through the busy streets of the shopping district, he had a dark aura around him and he scowled at anyone who dared to approach him. He was annoyed, very annoyed.
He had just had a very annoying meeting with his father and he found out some very annoying information and he was JUST VERY ANNOYED AT THE MOMENT!
"Damn that old man!" The silverette said under his breath his hands turning into fists.
'Jyuudiame... What should I do?' The teen thought looking down at the ground.
He had yet to open the letter his father had given him; each time he tried his hands would tremble and shake... He missed his mother so much and now his dad showing up so suddenly after so many years demanding that her returns to the household and all just because he was a guardian now.
And to threaten his boss... He will pay...
The most frustrating thing of all was about the 'shady people' targeting his boss, that was very important information and he had to inform Jyuudiame and Reborn soon.
Gokudera had went to his bosses house only to find out she went shopping with Reborn and Yamamoto and that explains now why he is walking around the shopping districts.
'I don't know what to do...' He thought as he shut his eyes...
"Damn it!" The teen cursed loudly frightening a few bystanders. What was he doing there was no time feeling sorry for himself!
His father had just given him important information that people were targeting his boss! He had to find them quick! He had to protect her!
BANG!
The people around him screamed in terror as the sound of an explosion rang through the streets. Gokudera looked up to see smoke filling up the sky from a distance. He had a very bad feeling!
The teen took off into a full blown sprint pushing the people out of his way.

"Itai..." Tsuna cried out as she got up on her knees, her one hand rubbing the bump that was forming on her head.
"What was that...?"
Tsuna stood on wobbly knees, her head pounding with a headache. She had to find everyone else.
"Tsuna!?"
Tsuna's head turned to the right, she couldn't see a thing due to the heavy dust cloud but she definitely heard Yamamoto's voice.
"Oi! Dame-Tsuna?"
"Rebor-
Tsuna was cut off as a hand slid over her mouth cutting her off completely. Tsuna began to struggle instantly bring her hands up to the one covering her mouth. She tried to pry the hand away but the person was just too strong.
"Tsuna!?"
Dino's voice rang in her ears and she struggled harder in attempt to catch their attention but all her struggling was in vain. The figure cursed as he felt the teen struggle harder, he reached her hands and grabbed them both in a tight grip pulling them to the side hard making Tsuna hiss in pain.
"You should calm down Hime... we wouldn't want to use force."
The brunettes eyes widen and her struggling ceased at the sound of the voice. It just wasn't possible, he was dead! He had to be dead...he had to be! She was the one that killed him.
"Its been a while Hime... I really missed you."
Tsuna felt him lean close by her ear and whispered, "Did you miss me?"
A shiver ran down her spine as he leaned in closer to her body, she had to get out of here.
"You have really grown Hime... so beautiful..." The man purred while leaning in even closer smelling the brunettes' sweet scent. Tsuna clenched her eyes shut trying to create some distance between her and the man.
"Let her go!"
Tsuna looked up as did the figure holding her. The dust cloud was almost completely gone, the area was damaged they were all blocked in an area with two destroyed buildings blocking a way out. Dino and Yamamoto had a few scratches on them and their clothes all dusty but to her relief no one was gravely hurt. Reborn of course was unharmed and his clothes still clean with a sleek shine emitting from the black material.
Reborn stood in between both Yamamoto and Dino who all had their weapons drawn and stood ready in a fighting stance, while the suited man had one hand in his pocket another pulling down his fedora so that only his right eye could be seen.
Reborn took in the captors appearance seeing he wasn't much older than Dino roughly about the same age he presumed, his long black hair spiked up in many directions his bangs hanging over the left side of his face while the right was pinned back neatly. The captor had a long face with a Roman numeral scar under his right side of the face; Reborn was unable to see exactly what number it represented because of the distance between them and the fact that Tsuna's hair was covering it slightly. The captor was wearing a strange uniform that reminded Reborn of the Milfore's Black spell, he had long tight black pants with boats that were left untied with this he had a long black jacket with silver linings and a large roman X on the left breast. The boy reminded him a little bit of Gokudera for many rings were placed on his fingers and chains hanged loosely around his neck.
Tsuna shuddered as the man leaned in closer once again making Reborn's frown deepen to a thin line.
"So this is the famous hitman Reborn... This will make things interesting..." The captor mumbled pulling the struggling teen closer to his body.
Yamamoto's hands unconsciously tensed around the handle of his blade, his teeth clenched and his eyes narrowed at the captor, he really wasn't happy with how that man was getting so close to Tsuna and judging by the brunette's struggles she was getting just as uncomfortable.
Tsuna's Pov
"Well well, Hime it looks like you have some interesting friends..." said Taro as he pulled me closer to him, I tried to tug my arms away which only made him chuckle at my weak attempt.
I looked to Yamamoto who took a step closer his sword held up and ready, this in turn made Taro grin. I had to stop this... for once in my life I feel that not even Reborn can beat this man, on his own yes he will kill Taro without any problem... but if Taro is here that means Ryo is too and that means things are going to end badly.
Yamamoto then dashed forward at the two of us, my eyes widened as Taro jumped up into the air to avoid, his hold on me not wavering at all.
Taro said nothing his grin never leaving his face; this was going to be interesting for him, the feeling of his excited beating heart sent shivers down my spine.
Taro chuckled, "This is going to be so much fun! I can't wait to test my strength against the one and only rain guardian of the Vongola Decima!" Taro looked down to me pushing my head back into his chest and slightly lifted my head to face him.
"What do you think Hime; shall I kill your rain? What would the sky do without its rain... the one who washes away all the pain and sadness? It makes me so excited!"
Taro laughed out like a mad man and I felt my teeth clench in anger.
Dino glared his eyes never leaving us, "What family are you from?"
Taro grinned and looked at the blond, "Family?"
"We are not from the mafia."
My eyes instantly went to the side and I felt my knees shake slightly which hadn't gone unnoticed by Reborn who had yet to move or speak.
"Took your time didn't you Ryo!" Taro laughed out as he stared at his morbid friend who was wearing the same uniform as him but without all the jewellery. Ryo had navy blue hair which reached about mid back and was pulled into a low pony tail. The bottom half of his face was covered by the thick gray scarf that was wrapped around his neck.
Reborn's head instantly turned to the side when he saw a man appear out of thin air, he couldn't sense him either. Reborn pulled out his Leon gun and pointed at the new comer. These brats were strong he concluded, the fact that they were able to hide their presence so well was proof of that.
"Who are you people? If you are not from the Mafia... then what business do you have being here?" Reborn asked as he tugged on his fedora making it only reveal one eye which was glaring dangerously at the two before him.
Narrators Pov:
"Well we have some personal business to take care of with Hime here." Taro said as he looked down to the struggling girl within his grasp.
"Hime?" Dino repeated.
Taro only smirked, smug written all over his face...
"Well we don't want to hurt you or anything but we have business with Hime and Hime alone so if you would be as so kind to FUCK OFF!"
Tsuna clenched her eyes and hissed again as Taro tugged painfully at her arms; Reborn noticed this and his eyes narrowed even further. This was bad they had Tsuna as a hostage and he can't tell what their motives are. Right now they were the ones on the rope.
Yamamoto stood in fighting stance... it seemed as though they never get a break... they had just finished the fight with Checker face things were peaceful. He looked up to his boss and starred at the frightened look in her eyes he shuddered, he didn't like that look in her eyes... Yamamoto has seen Tsuna scared before but by no means had he seen her face this frightened.
Yamamoto frowned at the man holding his boss; he wasn't going to let them get away with Tsuna!
Yamamoto ran forward his sword ready to strike he would have to be careful and not use as much force so he didn't hurt Tsuna.
Tsuna's Pov
My eyes widen as I saw Yamamoto getting into a fighting stance... this was bad. They can't win because they don't know!
Taro only smiled a smile that wanted blood!
"Be careful Yamamoto! You can't use to much force or else you will hurt Tsuna..." Dino said his eyes never leaving the two before him.
"I know!"
And with that Yamamoto ran straight for us his sword pulled back ready to strike. He was aiming right for his head. I had to do something and fast, then an idea came to me; I bit down hard on Taro's hand making him hiss in pain and pull his hand away from my mouth.
Taro then backed up against the collapsed building behind us in attempt to hold me tighter for my struggling increased.
I looked up to Yamamoto; I had to stop him quick!
"Yamamoto-kun don't attack he will only-
I was cut off as the sword landed above my head slightly lodged into the wall. The sword had missed its official goal but had sliced through Taro's cheek.
"Don't make me ask you again! Let Tsuna go!" Yamamoto cut even deeper into the man's cheek and he didn't even flinch. His eyes were dangerously narrowed and bored holes into Yamamoto.
"Interesting Yamamoto Takeshi! But you should understand your opponent before you go ahead and attack them!" His frown was now placed with a sickly sweet smile and his eyes promised pain and his eyes suddenly glowed a light blue.
Yamamoto had discovered that he really didn't like this man.
The swordsman's eyes widen when he saw steam enclose the wound on Taro's face before vanishing completely.
"W-what?" Yamamoto stuttered out.
I hissed in pain as I felt a stinging sensation come from my cheek, I tensed when I felt warm liquid run down the side of my face and my breath hitched.
Narrators Pov:
Yamamoto noticed the distress of the brunette and spared a glance towards her only to have his eyes widen. For the side of Tsuna's face was dipping with blood and the large cut that he had just inflicted upon Taro, could be clearly seen on her face.
"H-how?"
Taro laughed making Yamamoto look up to him with wide eyes, "See now look what you did! You went and injured Hime!"
Yamamoto retreated his sword and jumped backwards a few feet away from Taro who stood back up straight. His hand that was recently covering the brunette's mouth now went up and grabbed her roughly by the chin.
He clutched her chin hard and lifted her face slightly while turning it to the side making the gash on her cheek face the group in front of them.
Reborn's eyes widen as did Dino's as they noticed the cut on her cheek.
"Yamamoto missed?" Dino's grip tightened on his whip. Reborn only shook his head, he saw that attack clearly Yamamoto did connect with the other male the question was why Tsuna was the one that is injured.
"He didn't miss..." Reborn stated, Dino turned to him.
"What do you mean? Then how did Tsuna get hit?"
The two turned back to the man who was chuckling and leaning in close near Tsuna.
"You should be more careful~ I mean look at this... You scarred our Hime's beautiful face."
Reborn's one eye gleamed dangerously; the way that man held onto his student was pissing him off. He wanted to pry his hands off her body then completely castrate each and every limb of his one by one.
"Yamamoto!" Reborn barked signalling him to attack.
Yamamoto stood in a fighting stance once again, "Got it!"
And with that he took off, lunging straight forward for Taro. Tsuna's eyes widen once again she had to stop this... for once she believed that they didn't stand a chance!
But Yamamoto was moving too quickly for her and she wasn't able to yell out for him to stop.
Reborn starred and waited for the attack to connect, he had to see how Tsuna was injured and by doing that Yamamoto will have to attack again... which means Tsuna might get hurt if his philosophy is correct.
Yamamoto slashed at the man but he skid to the slide making his back face towards Yamamoto for a split second but that was all Yamamoto needed. The teen once again brought his sword up and aimed straight for the side of Tsuna's captor hoping to graze him on the side.
It connected with his right side making a large gash, which made him stumble slightly. He still had a tight grip on the brunette's wrists which will surely be bruised and his other hand now holding the side Yamamoto had cut.
Reborn starred closely as Yamamoto got into a defensive position and glared at the older male.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Yamamoto, Dino and Reborn stared wide eyed at the male.
"I didn't expect you to actually attack again! But you're a fool..."
Reborn took a step forward, "What are you on –
COUGH!
Reborn looked over to Tsuna as did Yamamoto and Dino and what they saw made their eyes wide.
Tsuna felt blood rise up in her throat, Yamamoto didn't hold back much of his force... she felt as Taro transferred his injuries to her, the pain racked through her body as her side split open.
She coughed out a mouth full of blood a little trickling down both corners of her mouth.
"T-Tsuna..." Yamamoto had muttered as he stared wide eyed, how was this possible he knows he hit Taro! B-But why was Tsuna coughing up blood.
Reborn took another step closer and what he saw made him cringe the same side that Taro was supposedly injured was clear just a tear in the clothing but Tsuna's shirt was the one turning red even through the dark material red could be clearly seen.
Tsuna clenched her eyes in pain and began to pant lightly, her side really hurt and she could practically feel her blood running down.
Yamamoto couldn't move, what had he done... he had just injured Tsuna, how? He couldn't explain it did his misjudge the timing...
Reborn noticed Takeshi's distress and came up next to him and crossed his arms over his chest, "It wasn't your fault Yamamoto."
The said teen looked up to the suited man and clenched his teeth.
"You hit you mark dead on. He is transferring his injuries to Tsuna." Continued Reborn his eyes never leaving the male. Tsuna looked up at Reborn her one eye shut in attempt to ease her pain.
"Congratulations you finally figured it out!" Taro laughed and rested his hand on Tsuna's injury. Tsuna felt her breath hitch as he rested his hand on her side and she winced as he added a bit of pressure.
"What is your purpose?" Dino asked walking up to stand beside Reborn.
"R-Reborn..." Tsuna stuttered out. They turned towards the brunette who was still panting lightly.
"What is it Tsuna?"
"This man his name is Taro... H-he transfers his injuries to whoever he is touching- GAH!"
Tsuna was cut off when Taro pushed against her injured side, "Damn it Hime! You just had to ruin our fun!" He pushed harder making Tsuna gasp in pain.
"Tsuna!" Yamamoto called eyes filled with worry for his boss. Reborn scowled and Dino glared in anger.
Dino went into an attacking stance as he watched Tsuna wither in pain this only made Taro apply more pressure to the wound.
"Ah!" Tsuna hissed out again and shut her eyes tight.
"Taro!"
The group turned towards the other not hearing him speak since his arrival made Reborn get suspicious of the whole situation, he couldn't understand their purpose if they wanted to take Tsuna they could have done so already but it was if the two were just only toying with them.
"That's enough... You know He will get angry if he finds you hurting Hime like that!" The other yelled.
'He?' Reborn thought worriedly, so they had a boss...
Taro starred at him a frown on his face, "Fine whatever Ryo..." With that he released his hand from Tsuna's injured sighed which made Tsuna sigh with relief.
"It's always Hime ..." Taro said under his breath but Reborn heard it clearly as did Tsuna.
"Just take her!" With that he shoved Tsuna to the other man who grabbed her suddenly. Tsuna who never expected this tried to escape but Ryo quickly wrapped an arm around her neck. Tsuna felt weak, she couldn't even pry this guys arm around her neck away... he wasn't strangling her but he had a tight secure grip around her throat.
Yamamoto stood, "I will attack him again!" Reborn nodded; now that Tsuna was out of his grasp they had no worries of her getting injured anymore. The injury on her side wasn't serious but if not treated it could become serious because Tsuna was losing a lot of blood at the moment.
"N-No Yamamoto-kun!"
This brought the swordsman to a halt; Reborn looked up at Tsuna as did Dino.
"What do you mean Tsuna?" Dino asked as he advanced another step forward towards Taro.
Tsuna was breathing hard and she clutched tightly at the arm around her neck, "You can't beat him!"
This made Reborn's eyes narrowed at the teen, what was she talking about? Did she forget who she was talking too? Dino was a well known Mafia boss who was very strong as was Yamamoto not to mention if things got really bad he himself would intervene.
"Tsuna..." Yamamoto mumbled looking at the brunette.
Reborn was getting pissed off; he wanted his espresso but now has to deal with this and these idiots he should just shoot them.
"Hahaha! You should listen to her! You would-
BANG!
Taro was cut off as the bullet pierced his stomach, blood immediately began seeping through his clothes and he fell to one knee.
"Let's end this!" Reborn said as he lifted his gun upwards his other hand in his suit pocket while his fedora was tilted to the side only revealing one eye.
Tsuna's eyes widened... No! This was bad...
'W-Wait Reborn!"
As she said this Ryo's eyes glowed a brilliant blue and a large black holed appeared under Taro who smirked and fell down.
"Reborn be careful he will-
Tsuna was cut off as another black whole appeared next to Dino. An arm came out the hole and gripped the blonds wrist, Dino starred wide eyed at Taro who was grinning like a mad man through the hole.
The hole suddenly disappeared and reappeared next to Ryo. Taro came out the whole standing tall his arms crossed over his chest in satisfaction.
"What..." Reborn mumbled, his eyes quickly went to Dino as he heard the man gasp. Yamamoto turned to the blond only to see him collapse to his knees while grasping his stomach in pain. The swordsman quickly ran to his side and crouched down next to the mafia boss.
Dino removed his hand from his stomach and cursed under his breath upon noticing the blood staining his palm.
"Dino?" Reborn called out. His eyes never left the two problematic kids in front of him, he noticed the hold in Taro's clothes were the bullet had hit but he saw unscathed skin.
"Reborn..." Dino called.
"He got me... through that black hole thing..." Dino mumbled out in pain.
Yamamoto stared at the injury and Reborn cursed, he didn't hold back at all in that shot.
"Reborn he is losing a lot of blood!" As Yamamoto said this Dino collapsed, making the teen catch him and laid him down gently on the ground. He took action quickly and pressed both hands to the injury.
Reborn cursed
Tsuna starred, she was shivering... Dino was just hit... she turned to Taro who was ready to advance on the defenceless Yamamoto.
"REBORN!" Tsuna shouted.
"The problem is not what they can do on their own but as a team!"
Reborn understood, "I got it Dame-Tsuna... Now just hang tight."
Yamamoto turned towards the two and his ring glowed brightly as he summoned his Vongola gear.
Taro smiled and pulled out a small dagger from his ankle, "Let's get this over with!"
Yamamoto charged as did Taro, both their swords clashed. Yamamoto glared at the man before pushing his sword forward using his three other swords to push himself forward. This caused the small dagger to snap under the strain forcing Taro to stumble back just barely missing a sword to the chest.
"Not bad!"
Taro charged again getting his fists ready, he aimed for Yamamoto's face but missed by an inch. Yamamoto used this chance to bring down his sword.
He slashed Taro down from his left shoulder to his right torso, blood splattered out the teen as he coughed up a mouthful of blood. Yamamoto stood a few feet in front of him failed to notice the sinister grin splitting across his face.
Reborn ran forward as he saw the dark aura slowly swirl around the injured man, he had to stop this fight! Tsuna was right this was a losing fight!
"Yamamoto!" Reborn yelled out but it was too late as Taro suddenly gripped Yamamoto's arm. Takeshi turned to the black haired man trying to pull his arm out of the tightening grip.
"You're a fool Yamamoto Takeshi!"
Taro's eyes glowed blue.
"Guh!"
Tsuna's eyes widen as she watched her rain guardian fall to one knee and cough out a mouthful of blood. The teens uniform staining an angry red. Reborn pulled out his gun and shot towards Taro who let Yamamoto collapse to the ground.
He jumped back as a bullet slipped passed his head, only missing him by a few inches.
Yamamoto coughed out another mouthful of blood. Tsuna began to struggle harder her eyes narrowing in anger, "Yamamoto-kun!"
Reborn raced forward narrowing his gun as he speed to the black haired man, though just before he got close a small black hole appeared beneath his feet.
"What!?" Reborn yelled before he was sucked in.
"N-no... REBORN!" Tsuna yelled as she began to thrash with in Ryo's grasp. She had to get him out of there! That is a negative space, which means there is no oxygen in there!
"LET HIM OUT RYO!"
Ryo's eyes glowed dangerously in a bright blue as he felt the man with in his negative space struggle to get out.
"Hime, you should calm down a little... we are only paying you back..." With this Taro walked in front of the brunette whose hands were clutching tightly at the arm holding her around the shoulders.
"You know how much pain you had put us through Hime..."
Taro slowly zipped his jacket open revealing toned muscles and clear pale skin; he then grabbed the brunettes hand and pulled it to his uncovered chest. Tsuna's eyes shook with tears as he dragged her hand across his chest to rest on one particular space which made her eyes widen.
Taro grinned, "Do you feel that Hime?" he taunted as he dragged her hand making her feel every inch of the scared skin, the scar covered most of his left chest some of it even trailing down to his ribs and torso.
"You did that to me... Hime!"
"Taro, that's enough." Ryo stated as he glared a little at his partner.
"L-leave h-her a-alone!"
They all turned to the injured swordsman who was leaning up on his sword his other hand clutching at his shirt which was stained with blood.
"Y-Yamamoto-kun." Tsuna mumbled her eyes began to sting, the tears slowly running down her cheeks at her injured friend.
"Awww don't worry Hime I will end his misery once and for all." Taro walked over to the crouched down Yamamoto who was battling to get up. He reached into his coat and pulled out a black pistol. Tsuna's eyes widened as she saw the gun glint in the light.
"Well Rain guardian its been fun~"
Yamamoto stared up wide eyed at the gun pointing at his head, he couldn't move... his heart thumped loudly in his chest drowning out the sound of Tsuna's voice who was screaming, begging for the man to stop.
CRACK!
They all turned to the side when a large blackening crack slowly began to spilt in the sky. A hand shot out of the crack that seemed to be in mid air shattering to a small open space.
Ryo grunted and hissed in pain as his negative space began to break under the pressure.
Reborn then jumped out of the crack and was kneeling on the ground panting lightly, he had to hold his breath for a long time and just when he thought he was going to pass out his student's voice reached his ears.
He had never heard Tsuna scream in such fear and fright before that it sent his blood boiling after all he was the world's greatest hitman, his perfect reputation would be tarnished if he was taken out by something so weak.
"Wow that was unexpected... I guess you're not called the strongest hitman for nothing eh?" Taro mumbled as he starred at the suited man who was crouched on the ground a few meters away from him.
Setsuna was in shock, Reborn had managed to break out... he was alive... she felt relief fill her chest even though her tears still ran down her eyes. Ryo had his one hand clutching at his head and grunted in pain. That man had broken it...
"Well no matter I will just kill this kid here and then you, so sit tight Mr strong hitman." As Taro said this he pulled the trigger...
BANG!
Reborn's eyes widen in surprise, he won't be able to get to him in time... Yamamoto was going to die...
X
Gokudera starred at the spot where the smoke was still filling the sky, he was almost there!
He panted heavily as he felt his legs shake lightly due to the harsh running. He had a bad feeling and the fact he heard at least two faint gun shots made him worried.
He only pleaded to any God that everyone was alright...
X
Tsuna's Pov:
I felt the world begin to slow down...
My heart thumped so loud in my chest that it drowned out all noise around me...
My body began to shake...
He was going to die!
I have to save him!
What can I do!
"Do you want to save him?"
The sound of an eerie yet frightening voice filled my head as everything ran in slow motion before my eyes.
"I have to save him!" I yelled as time now came to a complete stop.
The voice chuckled... but I couldn't save him ... my gloves were too far away and I would never get there in time. The voice then laughed out as it noticed my distress I felt the world begin to turn hot suddenly and it was getting difficult to breath.
"You have the power to save him."
My body froze, the power... that power... she couldn't use it... people died because of it...
"I can't... I can't use it... there is just no way..." I mumbled, tears streaming down my face in anguish, he was going to die and it was all her fault...
In front of Tsuna a black figure began to emerge, she was unable to see any details of the figure because it was almost like a black smoke.
It lifted its hand and caressed her cheek gently. Everything was still frozen in time except her and this smoke like figure before her.
"Make it stop, with your power."
"I can't, I have never stopped a flying object that fast!"
The figure grinned but I saw no teeth, it was hollow I could see the frozen figures of Yamamoto and Taro through his empty mouth.
"What speed?"
He gestured to the flying bullet that was only a few inches from hitting Yamamoto directly in the head. That's when I saw it... it wasn't moving! I could see it clearly and make it stop!
The figure chuckled and placed both his smoke like hands on her cheeks and pressed their foreheads together.
"This is your world to control. Whatever you desire... I will offer it all. So tell me Hime, what is it you desire?"
I looked to where his eyes should have been but saw none... yet i could feel it was looking intensely at me trying to suck me deeper and deeper with in his never ending darkness...
But to save them... she was willing to plunge into that darkness!
"I wanna save Yamamoto-Kun!"
It laughed and I felt my eyes begin to burn knowing that they were glowing a brilliant blue. I felt the familiar sensation crawl up through my body as the smoke figure disappeared... this feeling... I haven't felt it in over seven years...
At that point time seemed to speed up again; I could hear Reborn curse in the background and Dino's shallow pants of breath completely unaware of what was going on.
Drip
I could hear the sound of blood dripping onto the hard floor and the loud thumps of Yamamoto's heart. I could hear it all...
"STOP!"
The bullet stopped a mere inch from Takeshi's face; he blinked in confusion as did Reborn. Taro quickly understanding this turned to me. I felt his heart speed up as he looked at me.
Reborn also turned to me and his eyes opened wide probably due to my glowing blue eyes and the fact that I was the one that stopped the bullet in mid air. Ryo's grip tightened around me and I felt him shake slightly.
"Hime? Hime stop it!" Ryo yelled out.
Narrators Pov:
Reborn was too shocked to move as he stared at his student, her glowing blue eyes were narrowed dangerously and promised pain. It was like she was a complete different person; even the air around her screamed danger and felt menacing.
"Let go." Tsuna stated coldly, Ryo only tightened his grip...This was getting bad, they couldn't defeat her.
Tsuna's narrowed her power to Ryo who was holding her and forced him to let go.
The suited man and Taro only watched as Tsuna made the man holding onto her suddenly have his arm lifted from her and then was flung back behind her.
Ryo grunted in pain at being thrown into the ground and attempted to get back on his knees.
Yamamoto looked up at the brunette his eyes widen in a bit of fear at the sight. Her hair blew around her casting as shadow over her glowing eyes and her body was shaking with what he presumed with anger... but in all the years they have been fighting together, he had never seen this power... not once had he seen Tsuna able to do such things.
Reborn was in the same state of mind as Yamamoto, he had never dreamed that his student was capable of doing such a thing.
But the sight of his student, made his stomach churn... he had seen it, the puncture marks all over her forearms but had decided that it was not a good idea to question about them for he had seen her very self conscious of her arms before.
Tsuna stumbled, she hadn't used her power like this in so many years, her head had begun to throb and she knew the seal would begin to act up soon.
"JYUUDIAME!"
The brunette frozen, this was the last person she wanted to see her like this...
Reborn turned to Gokudera who was standing on the top of the collapsed buildings and he sighed happily, he had noticed that Hayato was absent today and was a bit concerned and a little annoyed considering he should be with Tsuna at all times.
But now wasn't the time to scold him, he had to deal with this new arise of problems.
Gokudera starred in fright at his boss, she was covered in blood and the air around her was thick. It made his heart stop at the sight of her eyes... they were glowing blue and to him, they were beautiful.
Ryo looked up to the silverette at the stop of the building and glared, "Taro we must leave! We have completed our mission."
With that two black holes appeared under both Taro and Ryo and they both began to sink in the blackness of nothing.
"This isn't over Hime~" Taro taunted as the brunette glared at them with glowing blue eyes and with that they were gone.
Gokudera ran down and stared in horror at the sight of the bloodied Dino and the panting Reborn. The place was in mess...
Tsuna panted lightly as she began to feel the adrenaline begin to leave her body. She looked up, her eyes turning back to their original colour. Yamamoto who was starring at her wide eyed as was Reborn. The bullet still stood frozen in the air right in front of the swordsman face when suddenly it dropped.
Before Yamamoto could utter out a word his world turned black and he fell to the ground unconscious.
"Yamamoto-kun!" The brunette yelled as she kneeled to his side checking for a pulse, she sighed in relief when she felt it but she had to get him and Dino to a hospital they both were losing too much blood!
Reborn stood a walked towards his student already calling the Vongola Japanese branch for back up, they had caused too much of a commotion so they had to move quickly.
"Tsuna?" Reborn called catching the teens attention, she didn't look up to him her eyes shadowed due to her bangs but her could see her hands fist and shake.
"P-please we have to help everyone f-first..."
Reborn nodded and turned to his phone, he quickly gave the Vongola a call and they were already on their way. The suited man pulled his hand onto his fedora down to cover his eyes a stern frown setting onto his face.
Gokudera was frozen in spot.
"W-what happened?" He asked quickly running to The Tenth's side and rested his hand on her shoulder but quickly pulled back when he felt her flinch.
"Jyuudiame..."
The area was soon filled with Vongola people who were strapping Dino and Yamamoto on to stretchers and placed them in the medical vehicles quickly driving off.
Tsuna was about to stand and walk over to Reborn when suddenly
THUMP
Her chest and right hand started to burn.
She hissed and fell to her knees clutching at her right hand.
"Jyuudiame!?" Gokudera yelled leaning next to her in hopes of finding out what was wrong with his boss. She couldn't answer...
Reborn rushed to her side, "What's wrong? OI! Dame-Tsuna-
The suited man's eyes widen when he looked to the hand she was clutching onto and saw a strange diamond styled flower on her hand which was glowing brightly. There were ten little petals around the centre diamond shape.
'A seal!?' Reborn thought instantly but there was only one person he knew that had used such a seal, the Ninth!
The one petal on the top of the design then was covered in sky blames and slowly began to burn away making Tsuna his out in pain as the burning sensation increased.
Gokudera began to panic, he had never seen the design on his boss' hand before and it was hurting her! Not to mention he could clearly see she was losing blood as well due to her side which was stained red and the gash on her cheek was still dripping.
This wasn't supposed to happen to his boss! He was her right hand man! He was a failure... he was supposed to be by her side but he wasn't!
The next thing he knew Tsuna had collapsed into his arms and was breathing in heavily her eyes clenching in pain.
"Take her Gokudera! We need to get her medical attention."
Gokudera scooped his boss into his hands, bridal style and followed Reborn into one of the Vongola vehicles.
On the way Reborn had explained everything that had happened and Gokudera's eyes widen but he did not interrupt once. There were strange people targeting his boss just like his father had stated and not to mention they had nothing to do with the mafia... now his boss connected to these people because she used some strange power that none of them had ever seen before...

The Ninth sat at his desk and sighed, "This damn paperwork never ends..." The old man mumbled, hopefully he would be free of it soon. He was getting way too old to do this kind of stuff.
"Here you go Kyuudiame the last batch~" The CEDEF taunted as he handed the Ninth another stack of paper. The old man only scowled at the blond man who was grinning before him.
The Ninth was just about to reply when a throbbing pain suddenly started his hand. He looked up to his right hand and his eyes widen in surprise.
"What is it?" Iemetsu asked.
"Setsuna-kun's seal..."
The blonds' eyes widen as the Ninth showed the flower symbol on his right hand to the man before him and they could only stare in horror as the top pedal began to disintegrate into flames.
"Iemetsu book the earliest flight you can, we are heading over to Japan!" The Ninth barked out quickly rising from his seat and exited the office.
Iemetsu couldn't stop the fear swarming through his heart... there was no way this is happening again... her power couldn't be stronger than the Ninths strongest seal...

Somewhere in a meadow on the far side of Namimori a destroyed building laid, it was old and equipment was scattered everywhere. The building still stood but the middle of it was completely destroyed.
A man stood in front of the building, both his hands tucked into his pockets. A small smile was on his face as he looked up to the building.
Behind a large black hole had formed and two men jumped out.
"Welcome Ryo, Taro." The man said his eyes never leaving the destroyed building before him.
"We completed the mission sir." Ryo said as he walked up to the man. The man nodded happily.
"I am glad, I was a bit worried... I didn't think it would be so easy to crack the Ninth's seal like that."
Taro only smirked, "Of course it was, as soon as you bring innocent people into Hime's secret she will do anything to protect them from falling in, to deep."
"That is true, it was one of her biggest weaknesses..." The man mumbled.
He turned and smiled at Ryo and Taro, "It's time to start... Now that the seal is cracked her power won't stay quiet anymore.
The man then began to walk away from the scene a small smirk on his face as he looked up to the sky.
"It's begun Iemetsu... The Time of the Traces is NOW UPON US!"

"What is Tsuna?" Reborn asked as he stared at the Blond idiot before him and only narrowed his eyes at his daughters question guardians.
"It is okay Setsuna-Kun... Show them what you can do." The Ninth said gently to the teen who nodded in response. Everyone in the rooms' eyes widened in surprise as the vase next to her bed began to float in mid air.
"Here you go Tsuna." The suited man handed the brunette two tickets and smiled at Tsuna's confused expression.
"What is this Reborn?"
"Well it is a Mafia Ball party that you are required to attend as a candidate."
Reborn stated smoothly and only grinned as the usual, 'I am not going to this! Or I don't want to be a mafia boss' filled his ears.
"G-Gokudera-kun..." The brunette's eyes were shadowed by her bangs a deep blush staining her cheeks.
"Yes Jyuudiame?" He said with a small smile.
"WELLYOUPLEASEATTENDTHEBALLWITHME!"
