Yellow's
Kise close his eyes, hoping for another chance, it will not do anything if there will not be any miracle. He, himself, is mostly considered as a miracle because of his talents in copying and because of people's assumption about him in the basketball world. He was thinking, will not there be that kind of miracle that will come when he will be a shark's meal? There is nothing wrong for hoping that kind of miracle would happen, right?
Fortunately for him, and unfortunately for the shark, Kise's prayer was head and granted by someone who was truly insane enough to punch the sea creature with his bare hand, flying with his boots that has some yellow flames as it's thrust, while shouting familiar words. Familiar and annoying words that he thought he will never get a chance to hear it once again. Surprisingly, he felt very glad when he heard those "EXTREME" words coming out of a certain silver haired teen's mouth, who immediately punch a freaking shark.
The shark, fortunately for it and unfortunately for them, was barely scratched. It dive into the sea. It has a high opportunity for it to strike back once again. After all, the blonde realize that it was not an ordinary, normal and average shark you can see in your lives, albeit how stupid he was in academic subjects. Who in the world would even believe that a shark has some weird and not ordinary blue flames, that covers its whole body?
Nobody, right?
Kise finally snap out of his own musings. It was their chance to get away, but how can they even do that?
"Guys."
It was that demanding voice of his friend, Tsuna-chii, however, the person he saw was completely diverse from the friendly and kind Tsuna-cchi that he knows. His eyes are strangely covered in piercing exquisite orange and a beautiful, elegant yet unusual orange burning flame on his forehead. Menacing yet relief aura surrounds his figure, who was floating in the sky. His facade turned into the one that Kise recognized as the "different one". It was him, his amazing part that Kise Ryouta truly respects in just one single glance.
Tsuna immediately got more response than Ryohei, who was supposed to get the very first respnse.
"Juudaime/ Sawada-san/ Sawada!"
On the cue, three motorboats came to their way. Midorima, Yamamoto and surprisingly, Murasakibara drove without Reborn around. They stopped on the spot of where the teenagers were, and made some of the water splashing due to the break.
It was Yamamoto who asked them to get on the motorboat.
"Come on, guys! Let Tsuna handle this!"
Gokudera and Ryohei protest.
"No! I will not leave Juudaime's side! I will fight along with him!"
"Me too! A MAN HAS TO FINISH HIS BUSINESS TO THE EXTREME!"
Yamamoto wince but fought back. "But Gokudera, you do not have any weapon with you! And senpai, Tsuna said that we have to get out of here, right?"
Ryohei who had calm down a little after hearing Yamamoto's words, thought things straight and (reluctantly) agreed with Yamamoto. "Fine." He then landed onto the vehicle.
Gokudera frowned, but, before he became more obstinate with the intention to fight back with rain, Tsuna immediately 'ask' him to leave. "Gokudera, back off."
The silver haired boy flinched. His boss almost gave him a glare despite his calm expression that still masked his face. Gokudera's stiffened shoulder became relaxed after thinking about his boss' request. After all, a good right hand-man will not disappoint his boos, no matter what, in any kind of situation.
"Yes, Juudaime." He followed Tsuna's command without complaint as he climb up into Yamamoto's boat.
The GoM does the same too. Aomine and Kise went with Midorima while Kuroko went wit Murasakibara. They were amazed by how Tsuna handles the situation. It is hard to believe that the timid, wimpy and clumsy boy could show such charismatic aura. Even before they came up to rescue them, Midorima's and Murasakibara's body somewhat refused to defy Tsuna's order to rise the motor boat, although, the purple-head is clueless about the engine, but they felt that Tsuna's order is absolute, just like Akashi's so, they follow it. (And Murasakibara was taught by Midorima of the basics with little amount of time they have.)
Kise knew exatly how hot-headed Gokudera is, but he never actualy thought that he will not dare defy his precious boss' order. He wonder how can Tsuna became someone like that?! He felt as if he's another person who lives inside Tsuna.
"Yash! Everyone's here. Now, let's turn the engine on and get out of here!" Yamamoto ordered as he turn the engine of his motor boat on.
Kise blink in suprise. Why do they intend to leave Tsuna-cchi behind? "Why don't you come with us, Tsuna-chii?"
"I'm fine. You guys shoulf go first." Tsuna said, his back turned to them so that they can't see what kind of emotion was on his face. But, Kise could guess that it's a serious and cool one.
Before they could leave, Yamamoto remembered something when he caught a glimpse of the shark's shape through the shadow of it and he saw some rain flames that somewhat jumped from the water. His dark brown eyes widened in realization.
"That's right, Tsuna! Don't kill the shark because it's his!"
With those words, they left as they moved farther away, Tsuna's figure became smaller and smaller until they can't see it.
Normal
The room is filled with silence. No one from the Vongola's side tried to explain what they have been hiding due to the events that's happening. No matter how the five members of Teiko students tried to ask the Vongola with their questioning glances, the latter didn't even make eye contacts with them. The players of course, had been suspicious ever since Tsuna ordered them to leave him in the ocean 30 minutes ago.
It is just too unbeliebable!
Despite of the curiousness and worry, no one seems to break the mood.
"Tch. I should haven't left him there!
Or so it seems.
Gokurdera had been thinking about his boss' current whereabouts and condition. He doesn't even care about what is currently happening in Akashi's lobby. His worry for Tsuna is much more greater and not even thought of the actions that had been done by his boss; which leads into a suspicioun from the rest of the Generation of Miracles in the room.
"Chill, Gokudera. Tsuna's strong but... it will take some time because he can't kill it."
Gokudera's frown deepen after hearing Yamamoto's statement.
"Then, it's your fault for saying to Juudaime that he should hold back so he wouldn't kill it since that shark is his, right?!" The bomber barked. He seem to have heard (and realize) what the swordsman asked Tsuna before they left.
Before Gokudera intended to extend and make his protest and self-regret longer, Midorima took a fast action to ask them since it was a good opportunity to asked something that his side wanted to ask.
"Hey, you guys didn't explain what is just happening."
The Vongola Guardians forze. In an instant they turned their attention into the GoM. The mafiosi are averting their eyes from the innocent teenagers, though, Hibari, certainly just stared at them coldly. They don't want to tell them about their dark (or very darkest) secrets. It will involve them, and Tsuna will be the least happy person about this. The boss will be chase by guilt if one of them would die because of their connection with them. It's too dangerous.
Should they tell them who they are or not? If weighing the pros and cons, the cons will win for sure.
"If only Reborn-san is here..." Gokudera though. Perhaps, it depends on the baby if he would do anything. But it was certainly a mistake if Reborn was there, it will only result with the situation worse. However, Gokudera didn't know that the said baby is actually there, observing them with great mild amusement somewhere in the room. Reborn, as the best hitman in the world as well as an ex-arcobaleno, can easily hid his presence very well. Even well trained professional mafiosi can't sense his presence until he revealed himself.
"I can explain." A familiar voice came from the stair. All eyes turned to the redhead, who is standing casually with a gentle-mysterious smile plastered over his face.
Anxious looks were gained from the Vongola side. Does that mean that Akashi Seijuurou know that they're mafia and intended to expose them right here and right now? There's a possibility that the Akashi's are involved with the mafia since Reborn has stated that he knows the redhead since he was young.
Gokudera tried to stop him, however for some unknown reasons, he couldn't move an inch. Akashi's intimidating aura started to conquer his mentality. Not only the bomber, the remaining guardians who, somehow have the same idea to cover themselves and not let Akashi expose the fact about them couldn't move.
Desperate that he couldn't do anything, Gokudera let out a small audible "Tch."
Akashi them closed his eyes for a brief moment before he continued. "As a boss of a big company, Sawada Tsunayoshi is targeted by rival companies. Therefore, he had to have guardians to protect him and learn some ways of fighting so he can survive. Otherwise he will lose. And lose means 'death'." The captain let a pause as he glance at his members' faces, watching their various reactions. "Is it clear enough to answer your doubt?"
All of them were speechless upon hearing their captain's explanation. Especially the players, it was something that even a middle schooler hard to reach or even to maintain their safety. Then... Their captain might even taste that kind of experience. Even the rich have their own troubles. World sure is very cruel.
The Vongola, on the other hand, was glad that Akashi didn't tell them the truth. Although, they doubt that Akashi even know the truth behind their identity.
Wait. There's something amiss here. How did he know what's happening?!
It was now Aomine's turn to ask a question that bothered him not long ago. "Wait. How do you know what is happening with us?"
The redhead gave Aomine a stare, as if the question's answer is very obvious. "From Reborn-san." He coolly answered.
That baby again.
How could he knew everything? Aomine sure will put some pranks to him if he ever meet that kid again. Even Murasakibara recalls that Reborn went with them when they got separated with Kise and the others.
"Don't even try Ahomine." Said a squeaky voice.
Then the blue haired teem, whose thoughts were just read by the baby, was extremely surprised by his sudden appearance on Akashi's right shoulder. He is sitting there as if it's not a problem, sitting there casually on their somewhat scary (or very scary) captain.
"Anyway, why don't we make some cold tea or juice while waiting for Tsuna? It's hot here." Reborn offered.
Gokudera obviously tried to defy this. He was worried for his boss and Reborn-san would only make them drink tea? "But Reborn-san! Wouldn't it be better if we search for Juudaime? I have my weapons with me!"
Reborn shrugged. "Well, if you dare defy Tsuna's order, then you don't trust him, huh? A good right hand man also trust his boss very well."
Gokudera was taken aback by Reborn's (harsh) words. He really wanted to help him but what Reborn said is probably the truth. He fell on silence.
Smirking in victory, Reborn talked to Akashi. "Well, Seijuuro? Where can we drink?"
The emperor simply said. "Follow me." He walked to where ever they can drink, with the rest of the teens following after him.
