Chapter 4: The secrets one soul keeps
'Do you really know Tsunayoshi Sawada as good as you think you do? Huh Gio...'
Tsuna sat on the window, he was looking out over the streets as if he was waiting for something a signal of sorts. That he wouldn't tell anyone, what he was planning was never any of there concern. If he made it to where anyone else got involved, he'd never forgive himself, that was the last thing he wanted at this point. 'This is my fight!' He moved to cover the sleeping Gio with a blanket and jumped out the window. His steps made no sound other then a simple splash as he landed in a puddle. His eyes drifted over the male who was standing there under a umbrella waiting for him. "Took you long enough Tsuna follow me..." The boy grabbed his hand, and dragged him before he even could refuse.
Tsuna looked up to Gio's window and smiled, this was for all of them to keep them safe. It was why he would agree, the only reason he'd rather see them safe then hurt. He wondered what was waiting for him, what did he have planned it was not bound to be something good. 'What is he planning...' Tsuna put his hand in his pocket, not really acting as if anything was up. He was just being normal, the quiet person he was whenever Enma found him, or something happened between the two of them. He flinched looking at the door as it slammed behind him, he had a feeling he wasn't going to be walking out of there in one piece, maybe this wasn't such a good idea. He hadn't told Gio where he was going, and he'd probably be back in the morning. Or at least he had to hope he was going to be.
He looked to Enma and winced feeling a hand across his cheek, he just turned his head with the hand. Blood dripped from his lip; and he glared at Enma. "What is with you...is this a game to you..." He hissed and blocked Enma's fist, throwing him against the wall, or at least away from him. The boy was sore, his body hurt from past things Enma had done. "Looks Like we have to break this kitten again...hold him down." Tsuna winced, and looked at the people who had grabbed his arms, they tossed him against the bed, and chained his arms up over his head. "This might hurt a bit!" Enma held a syringe in his hand, and the slightly blood colored liquid it contained worried Tsuna. He had seen him use it before, on someone, well actually that was when he had first shown up here.
Flash back~ such a perfect time!~
Tsuna had talked to Enma at school, just a simple conversation and they had only just met. But he had offered to go home with Enma, to work on homework that was what he had thought. But Tsuna didn't feel like working on homework, nor would have actually wanted to. "Please make yourself at home." No sooner had Tsuna sat down he heard some fighting, Enma had vanished and as he looked up there was kid thrown onto the ground. His eyes widened as he looked at this and watched the scene. "Told you not to cross me kid..." Enma grabbed his arm, and jabbed a needle into the arm, the blood like thing flowed into the kids arm. And he seemed to fall limp, and was dragged out of the room, Tsuna hadn't expected that.
He was sitting there shocked, not sure what to do his eyes flickered from Enma, to the needle to the kid who was being dragged away. He didn't say anything, not sure if he wanted to get on Enma's bad side. But he couldn't keep quiet, he had to do something. "Why did you do that! what did he do to you!" He stood up, and looked at Enma, he wanted something, to know what was happening. And he felt a bit dizzy for some reason, maybe it was better if he went home. Something didn't feel right anymore, his eyes drifted to the cup he had in his hand. He placed it on the table, and looked to the door. "I'm sorry I have to go..." He raced out of the place, and had barely made it through the front door before he collapsed to the floor.
Things had never been the same after that day, he didn't know why he just felt like something was happening. He had looked up through blurred vision at Gio. Waking up in his bed with a headache, he didn't even remember half of what had happened at Enma's house. It was only just coming back to him, he wondered why.
~End of flashback~
Tsuna struggled, the metal cutting into his wrists. He felt them remove his shoes, and toss them aside. He was still fighting and kicked one of them in the face. He felt chains tighten around his ankles as he looked up at him. 'Enma...why the heck did I ever trust you!' His hissed, the needle was stabbed into his wrist, his vision blurred. What were they doing to him, he tried to speak and his voice was caught in his throat. He should have listened and not come here, let Gio help. But he was here and didn't want to let them get hurt because of him now. "Don't struggle too much brat...I'm gonna break you..." Tsuna's vision went black and he couldn't heard anything, just random mumbling it seemed.
The boy awoke to a sharp pain, Enma was sitting on the bed next to where he was, now chained to the wall. He couldn't move and his vision was slowly clearing. His head hurt, there was blood dripping onto the floor, though what was Enma going to do to him. He was just watching from a distance without saying anything at all. "You are a fool Tsuna...I told you not to annoy me...and now you can suffer because of it..." He waved his hand and Tsuna felt something hit his flesh, tearing it. He knew what it was now that he thought about it, he remembered feeling this whip with the metal spikes on it cutting up his flesh before. The first time Enma had punished him, it was in a more sensitive place then. But he knew it would only be a matter of time here wouldn't it.
"Why..." He hissed and could feel the blood dripping onto the ground, he just was trying to bite his lip and take it. So he didn't scream didn't cry out yet. But his body was in pain, and he couldn't take much of this could he. "Oh shut up you know why!" He got up and grabbed Tsuna's neck shoving him against the wall, causing the chains to dig even more into his cut up flesh. He was going to scream and cry, Enma would not let him get away with this he never did.
Tsuna's now cleared vision drifted over the table that was holding all sorts of tools, some he had seen before. All used to cause pain in various fashions. He closed his eyes and tried to focus, the pain was nothing. He had worse didn't he, but as the color faded from his eyes he knew this was Enma's plan all along. The boy was retreating into himself, like hiding within his own body. 'This was your plan...all this time...' Tsuna could feel another presence something darker, it was forcing it's way into his mind. 'Heh my turn to take over Tsuna! go rest you weak little brat...'
Tsuna didn't try to fight there was no reason, what could he do. He was way to tired, the fact that his body had been taken over by someone else. He couldn't do anything, other then seem to pass out. "Go home to Tsuna's place...act as much like him as you can...and when you get the chance kill Gio...no one will get in my way...Tsuna is mine..." The boy nodded, grabbing his shoes and bag walking towards the door. He was limping but as he walked the wounds healed and vanished as if they had never been there.
"That will be way too easy..." the boy spoke, slipping the jacket over his body. He knew what he was planning, the packet was in his pocket. He wouldn't let Gio get in the way, his body was hidden away this time. A clone, a tool made for nothing more then destruction, his master would remain alright then if he did this and it was what he wanted didn't he.
He started to walk home, almost like it was just him walking home from school. No one needed to know what Enma had done, and Tsuna was not awake to tell him. Not at this point in time, if they wanted to find out. Then well they would have to try a lot harder then they probably ever could have. He peeked into the house, it seemed to be empty no one was there. That was good for him, he had to change his clothes. The looks he was getting because of the blood on them had been annoying, why couldn't people just mind themselves not him.
He hated humans they were annoying, why was he letting them order him around. He just wanted a body, one he could use that was the only reason. If he didn't get this one, then why did he even bother. There had to be one he could get away with using, would this one last long enough for him. The kid changed his clothes, slipping into a blue tanktop and blue shorts, it was something he had found in the room. 'Time to start...' He slipped his hand in his pocket, the kid was making something for Gio when he got home.
"Hah! let's see how you like this pretty boy...shoulda listened to Tsuna..." He heard the door open behind him, and had to act like Tsuna. He didn't talk acting like he hadn't heard the door, maybe he was acting like he was tired. That would probably make some sense after all, well school was really tiring. He slipped the powder into the drink, and yawned. He didn't think Gio had noticed he wasn't in the kitchen yet. "Rough day?" The kid spoke up without even looking up from his work. He could tell just by the sigh he didn't seem to have a good day.
The kid didn't jump when he felt the arms around him, he knew this was something that happened. And if he was going to play Tsuna till he did what he was supposed to. He had to put up with all of this as well. "Hi Gio!" He held out the cup to him and smiled, he wanted to get him to relax, so then he could turn on him. It was just the start of this, even if this went bad, he would just turn on him and make it painful.
Tsuna looked at Gio, the man was looking at him and well he was questioning it seemed, or was it just that the kid thought he was. It wasn't like he knew what the kid had planned anyway or what he was supposed to be doing. "Did something happen? you seem different...?" Gio seemed to speak and was looking over the boy even more. He knew it would be time to act soon he just had to be careful how he did things. If it ended badly for him then he would truly have major problems and that really was the last thing he wanted. Much less needed at this point in time right, he was not sure how long he could put up with this.
"Not really..." He didn't know what he was supposed to say, the drug should take it's course soon. Gio would be at his mercy and that would be the end. He watched the cup fall to the floor and Gio run away from him, the person seemed to be moving back to the room. Like that would keep Tsuna away or the one using Tsuna's body for it. "Aww running away~ why Gio what's wrong?" The kid purred and opened the door to peek into the room a glint of murder in his eyes. This was not the Tsuna Gio had known but he shouldn't be able to notice that now. Or maybe he did, either way he wouldn't be around that long to do anything about it.
"Hah what did I do...that is what your eyes say...? Do they not..." He smirked and kicked the door shut behind him, he had to finish up with him. When he was done he'd be licking the blood off of his fingers and going back to where he was supposed to be. The kid flicked a knife out of his sleeve and walked straight towards Gio, he was moving quickly like a cat stalking his prey. The knife cut into the older blonde's neck, and Tsuna licked the mark drinking the blood. He wasn't scared, no but he had Tsuna yelling at him, and Enma getting mad as well because he wasn't done yet.
'Shush up...I'm doing what you wanted...and Tsuna this is your weakness...your fault for getting too close...' The boy knew what he had to do, and would not let anyone get in his way of doing that. He laughed and tossed a bloody and broken Gio against the wall, the blood stained his fingers and his clothes. He was bruised, the fact that he was using his power to hurt Gio meant his wounds were showing up.
"You were such a fool to think that Tsuna would do this to you! he doesn't have the heart!" The boy laughed, and flicked the knife around. He was just waiting for this, who knew it would have gone like this. He moved to the window, and turned to look at Gio. "You should have kept out of this...you can die here for all I care..." He was going to jump out the window when he felt something metal collide with his face. He fell backwards, and looked up at the person. His vision was fading...and he didn't know why, but he felt like he was being pulled away from Tsunayoshi Sawada.
"Hmph..." He dumped Tsunayoshi and the other male onto the bed, looking to Gio. "How long are you going to pretend that you are hurt...?" He knew he was faking this whole time, Hibari was not a fool. Well maybe he was a little, but he was not stupid and knew exactly what was going on. "Hm...You know me way too well.." Gio stood, brushing off his clothes looking to the two boys that were on the bed.
"What did Enma have planned..." Gio covered both boys with the blanket, though Hibari picked up the kitty like one. The cat boy's form flickered, purple flames flowing off of his body. He was being kept alive by the ring flames...being separated from Tsuna made his body weaker then it was. This is why he was working for Enma so he didn't get hurt or die. He turned and just jumped out of the window, not bothering to speak. He would take this little brat with him.
Author Notes: End of this one...Enma needs to like um die...yea go with that.
