Kryptonite - chapter one ^^

Disclaimer: I don't own Katekyo Hitman Reborn. If I did, there would be a lot more coupling amongst the characters! I'm just borrowing Amano Akira's characters for the sake of this story because I love it! *shot*

While at the hospital, the four where given Ryohei's possessions that he had on him at the time of the attack. Of all things, a shining pocket watch seemed to fascinate Reborn.

Leaving the hospital before the others, she ran towards Tsuna's house, where Bianchi was waiting for her for that evenings training.

'I'm so sorry I'm late,' she wheezed 'I got caught up at the hospital' She took a deep breath from her inhaler.

'It's fine, your only five minutes late' she replied heading towards the river where she guessed training would start.

After two hours of learning how to control the rod, discovering how to spin and balance it, training was over as the sun started to set, leaving an auburn footprint over the night sky.

'You did well today' Bianchi spoke, 'just keep practising and you'll do well.' She turned to go back to Tsuna's house.

'Thanks' She smiled and ran off, not wanting to be caught in the dark and the eerie silence of the night.

Running through town, millions of thoughts passed through her head. Thoughts about the Skylark. She wanted him to be there when she returned, to keep his word and not rush off, leaving her behind. But when, she thought about him, her heart would race faster, leaving a tight knot in her chest.

Turning a corner fast, she could her screams; women and children ran past, not looking back, so she continued forward, her heart in her mouth.

Explosions littered the air as she came to face Gokudera. Bombs where held tightly in his hands, his face was bruised, battered and bleeding.

Standing by a shop, she saw Tsuna round a corner. Instantly Gokudera's mood lightened up until the bloodied man (Whom she guessed he was fighting) stood and spoke words she couldn't catch. But she knew he was in danger.

'Run!' she screamed, but Tsuna just stood there, frozen. The lanky man flipped something out of his hands, although before they could hit, Gokudera ran in front, taking the fall.

She ran now, as fast as she could, kneeling by Gokudera and a shocked Tsuna. The man in the glasses looked at them, stumbling towards them, looking like he was about to attack again.

'Tsuna, you get Gokudera away to somewhere safe' her voice was low and serious.

'Eh?!' He squealed. 'What about you?' He slung the octopus' arm around his neck.

'I'll watch you back' She relied, giving him a fake smile as reassurance.

When the two had gone, Azura held the staff in her hands. Yamamoto came running over to help, a bright smile beaming on his face.

'Hey again' He smirked. She now realized the objects that the glasses man held in his hands where… Yoyos? Who the hell nowadays attacked someone with yoyos?

He stood up straight again, muttered something about number two and walked off. Azura was about to run after him, only to be stopped by Yamamoto's large and strong hand.

'What the hell are you doing?' She shouted, looking back and fourth between him and the rear of Mr. Glasses himself.

Yamamoto looked down at her with coffee eyes, 'We can get him later. Right now we need to look after Gokudera.'

She nodded in agreement as they went over to him. Police officers surrounded the area, crowding around them.

There was something so familiar about the glasses man, Azura couldn't put her finger on it though. It felt almost nostalgic.

Tsuna and Yamamoto said they would look after Gokudera so Azura continued back to the house, still a little shaken by what just happened.

Outside the house, she could see the lights where off. Slowly she opened the door but all was quiet.

'Hibari?' She called out, only to be answered by a dead silence.

She put down her school bags and slipped into his room. Sitting on the bed, the moonlight pierced through the unclosed curtains, shining down upon the motionless body below it.

Beneath the light, she rounded herself into a ball, tucking her face into her knees. The eerie silence echoed throughout the house, making it hard to sleep.

'Idiot' She murmured, 'You said you'd wait for me.'
