Chapter 3: The search

After Venten had frozen and didin't come back home Bermuda got worried. Finding all her daughters buyings from her room but not her Bermuda went looking for her from her favourite places; Peak of mount everest, valleys of Alps and finally Venice. All Bermuda could find was battle scene from nearby forest of Venice! Raiding through the scene searching some clues he found something. His daughters earring! 'Possibly fallen down from her while battling' Bermuda thought trying to find something more leads. He then found a small piece of something black inky coloured crystal like item and a emblem. In the emble said Vongola!

Bermuda boiled from anger thinking that this family had kidnapped his daughter. Bringing up his flames and jumping through it to a room with warm colours.
When he looked around he noticed someone sitting behind a desk made from oak. The man had stopped writing and looked shock the little baby sized Bermuda.

''Who the hell are you?'' Giotto asked
''None of your business!'' Bermuda shouted flying on the desk and grapping Giotto from his shirt and pulling Giotto towards him
''I wan't to know who is this familys boss.'' Bermuda showed the emblem to Giotto
''That would be me... Why?'' Giotto asks
''Do you know where I found this?'' Bermuda questions
''I drop these things once I while so I don't know...'' Giotto admits scrubbing his head
''I found it near Venice. Sounds familiar?'' Bermuda tells Giotto pulling him more closer
''Yeah? I was there few days ago.'' Giotto agrees
''Well then... Was there about 16 years old girl with black hair?'' Bermuda asks pulling Giotto closer again
''Well... Yeah.'' Giotto agrees
''Tell me everything!'' Bermuda demands
''Shure. If you would first let go of me...'' Giotto asks
''There! Now speak!'' Bermuda demands boiling letting go of Giotto
''Okay. Well we saw her taking out bunch of guys in a single hit...'' Giotto starts telling while Bermuda listens carefully
After a while Giotto finishes his story '' ...Then she said 'sorry' and disappeard...''
''You have any proof?'' Bermuda asks
''Here you can see that my throath is still red from the choke attempt and you seem to have that ice cryatal, right?'' Giotto says backing up his story
''Alright. I believe you. But that doesn't mean that i have forgived you.'' Bermuda finally cools down and summons his flames and jumps through it
''Wait I still have some questions!'' Giotto yells for nothing

Bermuda arrived to Vendicare prison to see the observation room. The observation room was a place where they could watch all over the world to find criminals and such. There was also a program that alloved the Vindice where everybody was moving. Just to be safe. But that Bermuda didin't want to know! He would run the programn so that he could find traces of 8ht element flame that would lead him to his daughter. Bermuda did find some traces but extracting the destination and source would take weeks! Evem months! But he was patient. Checking the room every day he would carry on his routines. When the program finally had ran throug he found an area where she would most likely be. Somewhere around Japan. Pin pointing was impossible. So he would search her daily. All araound Japan checking all possible hides and such. This he had done about twenty years when Bermudas boss called him.
''So? You wished to speak with me?'' Bermuda asked just to be shure
''Yes. You have been searching your daughter for past two decades right?'' Bermudas boss ask
''That is correct... boss. Is there something wrong with it? Bermuda wonders
''Yes there is. You see it distracts you so much from your work that I am going to ban you from going to outside and to observation room.'' the man commands
''What! That is not true! I still do my work!'' Bermuda explains
''Still this is my decision and you shall obey.'' Man says to shocked Bermuda
''Fine...'' Bermuda agrees in silent as his voice turned toneless and dark as he didn't have any other reason to live
''So. Your voice changed.'' man muses in silent
''Will I stay here now, boss?'' Bermuda asks his head bent down
''If you don't mind Bermuda.'' the man request
Then Bermuda jumped to his bosses shoulder

About 350 years later the ice around Venten had started to started to be old and fragile. A stone dropped through the crack and hit the ice making it shatter little by little releasing Venten from her icy prison. She was powerless able to do nothing just lying there doing nothing. Then she finally tilts her head and summons her 8ht element flames with all the power she has got left and sinking to it and then finally falling to a hard, cold floor. Venten knew where she was. In her fathers room! It didn't take too long until she heard footsteps outside the room closing in. Then the door opened and somebody jumped in front of her. It was Ventens father Bermuda.

''Dad?'' Venten asked powerless
''Yes. I was your father...'' Bermuda said
''What do you mean you was!'' Venten wonders in shock
''I lost my daughter long ago and made myself believe that I never had one so I am not accepting you back.'' Bermuda explains calmly
''But...'' Ventens eyes turned black started to tear up
''You can still join the Vindice if you want.'' Bermuda suggests
''You know how I say about that father.'' Venten tells Bermuda
''Then I don't have any choice.'' Bermuda says rising his hand over Ventens head
''Don't you remember our picnic when I was 50 years old?'' Venten rips out of nowhere

Flashback

''Dad...'' child Venten asks
''Yes dear?'' Bermuda asks?
''What kind of person mom was?'' Venten ask innocently
''Well... she was the most kind person in the world and she was extraordinarily pretty. She would be always be calm and nice to everyone. She was smart too. And you resemble her so much.'' Bermuda tells his smiling daughter
''I think that she was amazing!'' Venten smiles receiving a kiss to her forehead
''That she was, dear... That she was.'' Bermuda agrees smiling back to his daughter
''And where she is now?'' Venten asks now confused face on
''I think that she is now one of those stars up there.'' Bermuda tries to explain to his curious daughter pointing to the night sky
''Really? Can I go to meet her then and become a star my self?'' Venten wishes having her puppy face on
''Now now... Wouldn't that make me sad?'' Bermuda asks
''Why? You should come with me!'' Venten requests
''Well only pretty girls like you can go up there and become a star. And I'm not a pretty girl.'' Bermuda jokes around
''Well I think you are!'' Venten says knowing that her father is joking. Then they both burst laughing
''I love you dad...'' Venten whispers hugging Bermuda
''I love you too dear...'' Bermuda answers back holding his daughter under the clear night sky

End flashback

''No I don't remember anything like that.'' Bermuda answers
''T-T-Then I guess that I will l-leave then!'' Venten says finally starting to cry heavily
''I can't allow that yet.'' Bermuda says strict watching her daughters swallowed eyes
''W-Why?'' Venten almost demands to know
''It's our duty not to let anybody know about our secrets so I'll have to seal your memory.'' Bermuda explains
''Even all the memories with you?'' Venten asks
''I'm only going to let you remember your name. And basic things.'' Bermuda tells
''WHA... Alright then'' Venten agrees still sniffing
''Alright then. Here I go.'' Bermuda says injecting black flames to Ventens head
''One last thing...'' Venten says ''I love you dad!''
''Fine. I'll be sending you to there where you came then... I love you too my dear. Goodbye then...'' Bermuda muses while watching her dizzy daughter and summoning the flames and walking her through it. After the flames disappear Bermuda starts crying silently. He had only followed his bosses orders!
(A/N And here I suggest to stop listening)

Now dizzy Venten is walking through the forest without a destination. She only walks forwards and forwards until she comes to a shrine on a peak of a slope. Then she watches around and sees a town downhill and somebody walking upwards the steps leading up the slope. She tries to walk but her body won't listen to her and she just stands there with blank white eyes. It took a while for the person to reach the top. Then Venten noticed that it was a boy with brown fuzzy hair and brown eyes. Kinda cute in her opinion but this was not the time to think anything like that only thing that she could think was 'Help' but she couldn't say it out loud. The boy didn't notice anybody when he reached the top but when he heard quiet breathing he took a while to observe his surroundings and finally noticed a girl with teared clothes and messy hair he was quiet shocked at first but then asked ''Excuse me... but who are you?'' Venten tried her hardest to get out only few words ''H-h-h...'' was all that she could do
''What? I couldn't hear you.'' the boy complained. ''H-h-help me'' she finally got out before her body failed and collapsed ''Oh no! Oh no! I gotta get help!'' the boy rushed of to get some help. It didn't take him too long to find help. He came with a short silver haired sweating boy. That was where she finally blacked out.

When Venten finally woke up she was in a house who-knows-where and was not able to get up. She had to wait for a while to somebody show up and who else that could be than that boy. 'He probably sawed me' she thought. Then the boy rushed of and soon came back with a bowl of something that smelled so good that Venten started to drool.
''Here. Can you eat this?'' the asked
As Venten shook her head a little he asked ''Can you then open your mouth?'' Venten open her mouth a little obeying the boy without knowing why
''Alright then...'' he sighed blushing a little and then took a spoonful of the soup and poured it down to Ventens mouth. He fed the whole bowl to Venten who felt now a little better ''You should now sleep.'' the boy suggested. After Venten nodded the boy left without a word and turned the lights of leaving her alone. She fall a sleep pretty quick seeing confusing dreams about her savior. After Venten woke up she could move her body so she headed out of the room and down the stairs to somewhere she thought to be a kitchen as there was lot of noises coming from there. When she opened the door. Every single person in the room started to stare her. She really had no idea where she was or who these people were!

A/N: Okay! Hope you liked! Adding some spices to the soup now... Hope you can guess who this mysterious savior is. That's all for this time! Stay tuned! Ciao! Ciao!
