Chapter 4 – The voyage.
"Teo dear, come here, I want you to meet someone."
A little boy ran to where his mother and her friend was. He looked at his mother expectantly, and she just smiled before gesturing towards her friend. The boy looked at the pretty woman and noticed that she had someone hiding behind her.
"Who is that?" He asked, looking at his mother.
"That is Tsuna, your little sister."
"Teo my boy, I heard you and Tsuna got along great. That's good, siblings should get along…" The little boy looked at his father, who was smiling at him. The man then went over to where the boy was to pick him up. He then looked eye to eye with the boy. "Remember, Teo younger siblings are supposed to be the ones being protected by their elder siblings. You are the older one, which means you're Tsuna's big brother. So, you have to protect her. Got it?"
"Tsuna, Teo, come here. It's time for lunch." A woman called.
A four year old boy, followed by a three year old girl came into the house their clothes all muddy.
"Oh! What happened to the two of you?" The woman asked, concerned about the two children.
"A puppy go to big brother." The girl giggled. "Puppy, splash mud. Puppy, splash mud."
The woman merely smiled when she saw the children begin to jump around.
"Where's Tsuna?" A six year old boy asked when he arrived in the Sawada residence.
"She's not here." A man with blond hair answered, trying to not show his sadness.
"Oh, when will she come home?" The little boy asked again.
"Not for a long time. But I'll tell you what, why don't you write her a letter? I'll deliver it to her." The man told the boy, glad to see the smile coming on the boy's face.
"Okay."
"Dad, what's going on? What do you mean she's missing?" A ten year old boy asked.
"There was an attack, we managed to fight the enemies off but she's gone. We can't find her." Iemitsu told the boy, his tone grave.
"I'm sorry, but there's a chance that she might never be found."
Teo woke up with a start. The first thing on his mind was he was wondering where he was. He knew very well that his room was never this big, nor did he have a reclining chair as a bed. Then it hit him, he was in a plane headed to Italy.
Correction, he was on the ninth's private plane headed to Italy to have a fight with his sister and her family for the title of the tenth boss of the Vongola famiglia.
He closed his eyes again and once again tried to drift off to sleep; it was a good way to avoid his problems, at least temporarily. He was very aware that the confrontation would be a little more than three hours from now; it was very obvious with the big screen on the plane showing them a countdown of how many more minutes remain before arriving in Italy. When he found that he couldn't feel himself getting drowsy, he removed the blanket that was keeping him warm and stood up. He glanced around the other chairs to see that he was the only one still there in that compartment. He then walked over to the exit and headed to the place where he thought his friends were in, the eating compartment.
He found his friends there; eating pizza in a big circular table with padded seating. He walked over to them, as they greeted him.
"Teo, you're awake!" Hayato greeted.
"Did you have an extreme nap, little bro?" Ryohei roared, which annoyed the storm guardian.
"Hey, Teo! You finally up? We were going to wake you, but you seemed to have such a pleasant sleep… So, we decided not to instead." Takeshi said to Teo, who only nodded before sitting in an empty seat next to Ryohei.
"Where are the others?" Teo asked, as he noticed that the man was the only one missing from the eating compartment.
"You see Teo, as it turns out when the crew was loading our belongings on the plane, they kind of just placed them in random places in the storage compartment and since the storage is full of all kinds of things, the luggage are now kind of lost. The others are in the storage compartment, trying to find their stuff now before we land." Takeshi explained.
"Oh, how about you guys?" Teo asked, as he bit into his pizza.
"The three of us only brought duffel bags and backpacks, so we managed to make them fit in the storage compartment above our seats. But that reminds me Teo, what about you? Shouldn't you be trying to find your missing stuff?" Hayato asked.
"I only brought a backpack with me, Reborn told me that my dad actually had most of my stuff sent over last week while we were at training camp." Teo answered, sounding both a bit annoyed and tired at the same time.
"It must have been an extreme shock to you when you came home." Ryohei said.
"You have no idea…" Teo answered.
They continued talking until two pizza slices and a can of soda later, Reborn finally returned, with the others. Most of them looked downright exhausted, and they headed straight for the padded seating to finally sit down after their tiring search. While Hibari went to lean on a wall, not looking the least tired at all. But that was probably because his only luggage; if you could call it that, was a bird cage with a singing Hibird inside. Teo could only wonder if Hibari had brought other luggage in his storage compartment above his seat. Teo thought that even Hibari probably wouldn't bring only his pet on a summer trip, but the more he thought about it the more he thought about how he could be wrong. Teo made a mental note to ask Hibari about his luggage later.
But Teo was brought out of his musings, when Reborn suddenly came over to where the table was. Reborn first called out the attention of the tenth generation guardians before beginning. "The battle is less than three hours away from now, but before the battle I want you all to have at least a clue of what you're going to be up against. It should be fair since Tsuna's family probably know all about you guys already."
In Italy, there was a teenage girl lying down in the soft grass. Her eyes were closed, and on her sides were two creatures. One her right was a small orange lion cub and on her left was a dingo, both animals were lying down. Near her ears were orange earphones, blasting out modern music. There seemed to be tranquility in that area, regardless of the music but it was broken by footsteps. The sound of crunching grass alerted the small group that there was somebody approaching them. The dingo was the first to look at who the stranger was, but when he saw who it was he merely rested his head on the girl's stomach. The girl's left hand then began to pat the dingo's head, which made the dingo very pleased.
"Boss, there you are."
The girl opened her eyes to see a teen with a Cowboy hat, a dress shirt with khaki pants and rubber shoes walking towards them. "Cord." She addressed the teen.
The teen called Cord, gave a smile and a small wave to her before he sat down on the space next to the dingo. The dingo stood and made his way to the teen, he gave a small whine as he placed his head on the Cord's lap. He began scratching behind the animal's ears; this got him a delighted bark from the dingo. The girl gave a laugh as she saw the animal curl up in content.
"Trace really likes that doesn't he?" The girl asked as she sit upright, the lion cub on her right side jumping to her lap. The girl smiled at the creature before she began scratching under the lion cub's chin, knowing how much her partner loved it.
"Can't get enough of it. Much like your Natsu with chin scratches." Cord replied, looking at the girl and her partner.
"That's true." The girl said as she used her free hand to get her earphones from the ground, and placed them in her pants pocket.
The two teenagers stayed there in silence until Cord suddenly broke it. His smile suddenly dropped from his face as his face turned serious. "Boss, are you sure about this?"
"Of course I'm sure, Cord." The girl replied still looking at the lion cub in her lap, before turning to face him with a small smile on her face. "Why, do you think that we will fail?"
Cord surveyed her for a moment before lying down on the grass; "Of course not." He said, his tone relaxed and his face covered by the rim of his hat but underneath it was his usual easy-going look. Trace transferring to lie on Cord's side.
The girl merely looked at the faraway structure, across the lake and muttered a few words.
"Let the Vongola war begin."
