Chapter five- Preparations.
Once the plane touched down on Italy, Teo got a weird twisted gut feeling, that something was wrong. He decided to shrug them off, thinking they were jitters for the battle today. But once the door opened, revealing Italy did the feeling come back with renewed vigor. As he began walking towards the exit, it was like all of his instincts were practically screaming at him not to step out of the plane. He glanced at his family, who were already walking out of the door in their usual relaxed selves and wondered where this feeling was coming from. It was obvious that it was only him who got this feeling, but unfortunately for him as he descended the air plane stairs the feeling only intensified.
Reborn noticed a look of nervousness and paranoia cross over Teo's face as he stepped through the door. At first he thought it was only Teo's nerves getting to him, so it was no reason to be alarmed. But when he hopped on his shoulder for a ride did he realize that there had to be something wrong. Teo's shoulder was shaking slightly and Reborn knew this wasn't something that happened a lot. The last time he remembered this happening was right before the final battle with Byakuran, the day when Uni and Gamma sacrificed their lives. If that wasn't enough proof, Leon was also curling up in the same way he did whenever there was something very dangerous close by and Reborn trusted Leon's instincts.
As Teo scanned the area, he didn't see anything that would give him this feeling. The runway didn't have anyone else aside from his family and the crew from the plane who was currently putting their luggage into the compartment of the limo the ninth had sent, they were also in an open area so there couldn't be any snipers and from what he could see, the airport was bustling with people. There was no mafioso or assassin stupid enough to try to attack them in a public place, there would be too many witnesses. So, they should be safe. Teo tried to reassure himself with these facts but it was only once Teo stepped on Italian soil did both he and Reborn realize what was wrong.
In a flurry of movement Teo and Reborn raced to the others, the former tackling his rain and storm guardian to the ground while the latter went to do the same to Tia with less force. Teo vaguely remembered screaming at the others to get down and take cover before the car exploded. Teo, despite the fact of having been some distance away from the limo, still slightly felt the explosion. Just the heat made him feel as if he was already combusting in flames but it was nothing compared to the force. The force would have probably sent him flying, not to mention the metal debris that only missed them by merely three centimeters.
As the debris continued to fall, Teo slowly regained his hearing that he thought he might have lost from the explosion. Teo let go of his friends when he couldn't hear any more falling debris. Both gave a groan and seemed to have a bit of difficulty getting up from the force of his tackle. Teo made a mental note to apologize to them later. But for now he had more important things to attend to. He scanned the area for the others and confirmed, to his relief that the others managed to hear his warning in time. Chrome, Ken and Chikusa were on the ground and with them were the kids, looking slightly dirty but unharmed. Hibari and Ryohei also looked fine.
Reborn and Tia, were also safe. But the flight crew wasn't so fortunate. The pilot and the stewardess; while they hadn't been near the vehicle when it exploded had gotten crushed by the flying debris. The other flight attendants who were loading their luggage into the car compartment got caught in the explosion. Teo knew, at that point that the entire crew were all already dead. He felt his knees weaken at the sight of the bloody and charred remains; but he couldn't dwell on that, not now. As he got up he noticed people were either looking out towards the explosion from the glass windows of the airport or were running around like headless chickens.
"Oh, shoot." Teo muttered, before helping his two guardians on their feet and telling everyone to get up. Their situation right now was really bad, not only do they have a dead crew but there was also the limo that exploded. It wasn't in their best interests to stay there; if the authorities didn't get to them, then there were those that wanted them dead. Reborn, having realized these facts during the explosion began telling everyone that they had to go now. They all complied and headed for the airport. But once they stepped in the building, the first thing they saw was chaos, people were pushing and running towards the exit of the building while the airport security was busy trying to evacuate everyone.
The group used this as their chance and blended in the crowds. Once they had all gotten out, they regrouped in a less crowded place to the side of the exit. "What now?" It was surprisingly Hibari who spoke up first, still holding nothing but Hibird's birdcage. While the bird in question, was providing background music for the group that was the Namimori school song. "What do you extremely mean by that, Hibari?" Ryohei asked or in other words yelled, much to the Namimori prefect's annoyance. Hibari began to raise his free hand that now held a tonfa and aimed it the sun guardian, but he was thankfully saved from certain death by the rain guardian's words that distracted the prefect.
"I think he means what should do now, since we have no ride and someone just tried to kill us." The rain guardian grimly answered. Once the gravity of their situation hit them, they all fell to silence. But it was the storm guardian that broke it. "Isn't it obvious, just like we originally planned we'll go to the Vongola manor for the battle. Right, Teo?" All eyes turned to the teen in question, who ran a hand through his hair before giving them a small tired smile. "Yeah, Hayato's right. Nothing's changed we're still going to Vongola manor for the match." The others seemed to relax slightly at his answer; because at least they weren't in Italy without any clue what to do.
"And how do we do that?" Hibari asked. "We could call the ninth for some help, but that would take too long and if our enemies are still here, then we'd be sitting ducks. So, what we do is we split up." His plan of course got a lot of protest, but Teo just raised one hand to show that he wanted them to hear him out first and after a couple more protests; they stopped and let him continue. "I know the risks, but I think it's for the best. Think about it, their most likely target is me. It's best if we split into two groups. One group will take a taxi first to Vongola manor and about ten minutes later the second group takes a taxi to Vongola manor. Of course, this plan will only work if I'm part of the second group."
Reborn thought about it."It's true, you're probably the main target and going through with your plan will make things safer for the first group but-" Reborn stopped, realizing what Teo was planning. "By being in the second group, boss will be acting as bait for any nearby enemies." Chrome supplied. This of course did not settle well for anyone, especially Tia and the storm guardian. "Well, that's not exactly true. As you can see this place is swarming with airport security and civilians, what I'm doing will bait the enemies into staying to wait for a chance to kill me. But of course, I have no intention in giving them that chance. I'll just stay in places near security." Teo reassured, in a relaxed tone.
"Do you think that will really stop them from going after you?" Reborn asked in a grim tone. "When it comes down to it, I doubt it will." Teo answered nonchalantly, as he placed his hands in his pockets. "And you still plan to go through with this?" Reborn asked once more. "Well, when it does come down to that, I can actually put up a pretty good fight." Teo joked, but when he saw that it actually seemed to make things worse he gave a sigh as he raised his hands in defeat. "Jokes aside, I'm serious. I really will put up a fight if necessary. But I think that it will be enough for me to just stay in a place where there will be a lot of people, at least it will be easier to get away and to lose enemies in a crowded place."
This seemed to ease the tension ever so slightly. But in the end Teo's reassurance wasn't enough. "Teo, as your right hand man there is no way I cannot join the second group." Hayato declared before going over next to Teo. "That's right Teo, as your rain guardian I'll stay too." Takeshi said with a smile before going to his other side. "Extremely count me in little bro." Ryohei roared as he punched a fist in the air. Lambo jumped to his shoulders and ordered him to get him some candy, which probably as close as he c got to saying that he was staying behind. "Umm, boss… I-If it's not too much trouble, I'll join your group too…" Chrome mumbled shyly. At that point, Teo was already speechless.
But when Teo glanced back, he saw Hibari already leaning on a wall with his eyes closed. Hibird's cage left on the ground while Hibird himself was already out of his cage and perched on the prefect's shoulder. Teo was pretty sure, he's seen him do that at school and he's even seen his future self do that. That was the same thing Hibari always does when he was waiting for something. Now when Teo was able to piece things together, he got one heck of a shock. Hibari was going to stay with them. Just the thought made Teo sorely tempted to think that this had got to be some weird dream and that he was still fast asleep in the plane but the dull pain from the runway, was pretty convincing.
In the end, Teo decided it was best not to dwell on that topic for now and began walking towards the street, on the way Reborn hopped onto his shoulder. "You're really lucky to have a family like yours. You do know that, right?" Without the slightest hesitation Teo answered back, a small fond smile playing at his lips. "Of course I know that. Why are you even asking me something that's already so obvious, Reborn? It's not like you." Reborn, merely tilted his fedora before, giving a small smile of his own. "Just making sure you didn't forget." Their conversation ended with that and the two reached their destination, shortly after. Teo raised his hand and hailed a cab.
It was surprisingly easy to do that, because most people were either waiting to fetch or be fetched by someone. Security had closed the building to everyone except those who worked at the airport, for the sake of those arriving. Teo sighed as he thought of how much trouble they were already in, despite the fact that it had only been a couple of minutes since they arrived in Italy. Once the taxi came to a stop in front of him, the driver got out to collect the luggage. This got Teo to remember how a lot of their luggage was probably gone now, because of the explosion. He then thought about the remaining luggage and after a brief moment called everyone.
He began explaining how it would probably be safer to let the first group bring their remaining stuff to Vongola manor. In case things turn bad, they would not have anything to slow them down. The group couldn't argue with his logic, and even Hibari gave the man the bird cage. But it was a sight to see the driver get perplexed about where to put the bird cage. There wasn't any enough space for it in the trunk and in the end Tia had volunteered to hold it from her seat, which seemed to solve the issue. Once the driver finished loading the entire luggage, the only thing that was left behind with Teo's group were their concealed weapons.
Ken and Chikusa exchanged a few words with Chrome before getting inside the car. Ipin and Fuuta said their own words to Teo and Lambo before following suit. While Reborn just gave threats to Teo before leaving. Warning Teo that if he dies during the ten minute period, he would hunt Teo down in the underworld and kill him a hundred times over. Tia gave him a hug and told him to be careful and he responded by telling her not to give Reborn too much of a hard time. His teasing got her to fume a bit; but she ended up making him swear to her that he would definitely come back alive, several times before getting in.
Once they left, he went over to where his guardians were and they begun talking about things to pass the time. One of the topics was about what was likely to be in the news. They could just see it now, 'News Flash: limo explodes in airport runway.' The thought made Teo think of the irony. "To be attacked at an airport, one of the most secure places because of-." He froze mid-thought, as realization dawned on him. "Guys, I just realized this. But there's still something else we have to do here." When he got questioning looks as a response he continued. "I mean we're in an airport, where there are loads of security cameras." This seemed to clear things up as they began to realize what he was implying.
"Teo, you don't think that the explosion was caught on tape, do you?" Hayato asked. "Probably." Teo answered grimly. There was a sigh from Takeshi before he spoke up. "This really complicates things doesn't it?" Teo nodded as he explained the whole situation. "If we're seen being there we would be wanted as key witnesses, suspects or victims." Ryohei, who had been quiet this whole time, spoke up. "So, what will we do?" Hayato snorted, before answering. "It's not a matter of what will we do but a matter of what can we do, turf-head." Hayato paused before continuing. "Teo, with your permission I plan to go to the control room to fix things." Teo first checked his watch before looking back at Hayato.
"Can you manage in only seven minutes?" Hayato thought about it. "I'll probably be cutting it close though." Teo didn't really like the sound of that, but given the situation. They'd have to risk it. "Umm," Chrome spoke up, getting the group's attention. "What if I went with him? I could use my illusions…" She said, softly but firmly. The group agreed instantly to her idea. They didn't even need to think twice about it. They knew firsthand how strong her illusions are and not to mention, they'd be really handy in this situation. Hayato merely scowled before grabbing one of Chrome's arms, and slightly dragged her towards the building, before the girl could say anything.
The others grinned at this, because Hayato never once complained or refused Chrome's offer and they knew the scowl was only done out of habit and not out of dislike. The next minutes went by with them just peacefully chatting, but that stopped when seven men in suits suddenly surrounded them. "Come with us and no one gets hurt." The teens tensed, but didn't bring out their weapons. Not just yet. Teo just stared straight but when something behind the men caught his eye, he made his decision. "Aiuto! Aiuto! Polizia, essi hanno bomba." He shouted, and security immediately rushed over as people began to run and scream. The men easily got distracted by the security and the teens used this chance to escape.
They ran through the crowds to the streets and hailed a cab. They quickly piled in and were about to leave when Takeshi remembered. "Teo, what about Gok-" He began, but was interrupted by a voice. "What about me?" The teens turned to the direction of the voice and saw Hayato and Chrome on the front seat. They quickly departed after that issue was resolved, leaving the airport and the men behind. But a few minutes in the ride Lambo fell asleep soon followed by Ryohei and the others. Teo, himself was feeling a bit weak for some reason but it took him a half-focused look at the dashboard to realize what was going on. "Oh sh-" But before he could even finish, he lost consciousness.
