Tsuna POV

"Tsuna, where are we going?" asks Yamamoto, running at an easy pace to my left side. To my right, Gokudera-kun looks at me, silently asking the same thing.

"First, we're going to go check on Chrome to see if she's still around. Then, we'll go visit Hibari-san to warn him, even though it was supposed to be Reborn's job." My hands curl into fists as I feel something pricking at my mind. Once we arrive at one of our destinations, we'll discover somebody missing. I just know it. But, who will it be? Will it be Chrome or Hibari-san? Well, this is no time to be slow. We need to speed up. Trying to ignore the slight tightening in my chest and aching muscles, I force myself to move faster and my friends and quickly match my speed, not huffing and puffing like me.

It takes some time, but we finally reach Kokuyo Land and head inside quickly. Memories return to me as I think about when we met Mukuro and saved Fuuta. It was one of the scariest moments of my life, but I can see that I've grown from it and it's helped lead me to be less wimpier. Even though I'd love to just deny my position as a future mafia boss, I must admit it's done me a lot of good, personality wise.

The building is completely silent, not a simple murmur heard. Obviously Ken and Chikusa aren't here. They were always together and Ken tends to be a loud-mouth. So, that just leaves Chrome. Was she here or was she the one taken? There was the prickle again, telling him that it's the latter.

"Chrome, are you here?" I yell, looking around. Then, on the ground, I notice something. Getting closer, I realize it's Chrome bag, scuffed with dirt and lying in a heap on the ground. There was no doubt in my mind now. Chrome has been taken and somebody else will be next. Will it be Hibari-san? Yamamoto? Onii-san? Gokudera-kun? Me? I shiver, not wanting to think too much into it.

Turning around, I begin running again. Sensing the others following, I look back at them. "She's not here. She's been taken. Let's hurry and see Hibari-san and maybe even onii-san! They must know!" In response, I receive a couple nods and we run out of the building as fast as possible.

Third POV

The group arrives at Namimori Middle School to see Hibari Kyoya standing outside beside the gates looking bored as he looks up at the clouds. They seemed to be a bit darker than usual, hinting about a great storm approaching. Hibari smirks. Storms were a good way to keep all the herbivores inside as the rain pelts down on Namimori. Despite the rage, there will be peace.

"Hibari-san!" Tsuna yells, grabbing Hibari's attention away from the clouds.

"What do you want, herbivore?" He glances to Tsuna's companions. "And why are you crowding? I will bite you to death if you don't leave immediately."

As Hibari takes out his tonfas, Tsuna shakes his head furiously. "Please, hear me out, Hibari-san. I've got something important to tell you. It might be threatening some of the citizens of Namimori." This grabs the prefect's attention, causing the tonfas to be lowered and a sigh to escape Tsuna. But when Hibari gets this look in his eyes, the young boss begins to explain. "Recently, we found out all the Guardians are being picked off one by one, disappearing. So far Mukuro, Chrome, and Lambo are gone. We're not sure if onii-san is okay, but we plan to visit him as soon as possible."

"So, Nami-chuu students are disappearing?" Hibari says, his gaze steely as he stares at the group. He seems to think about it a little and then just walks away without a word.

After staring dumbfounded after the prefect, Tsuna turns to his Guardians. "Let's find onii-san. Maybe we can find out who is next if we find him."

"Hai, Juudaime!" Gokudera yells, saluting. They are about to go, but then Yamamoto freezes and seems to be staring into nothing.

"Yamamoto, what's wrong?" Tsuna asks, touching the Rain Guardians arm lightly. Suddenly, he sees something he wishes he could stop.

Yamamoto blinks as his friends disappear around him and a man appears in their place. The man was tall and thin, his hair a light shade of gold with some white and gray popping out. His eyes were slits, but the blue was intense. The smile on his face was crooked, almost awkward looking. Something was telling Yamamoto that this guy is dangerous and he should stay away.

"Yamamoto, what's wrong?" a voice echoes through the air, right into his ears.

Yamamoto quickly recognizes it as Tsuna's voice and responds, "Tsuna, where are you? I can't see you. Where did you go?"

"The Vongola can't here you, Yamamoto Takeshi. Only I can and you can. And frankly, that's all that's needed for all of this." The man reaches behind him and reveals the kendo sword Yamamoto's father gave to his son. "And you can't use this, so please don't resist, okay? That would make my job easier."

Yamamoto's eyes narrow. "What do you mean?" He truly didn't understand, but he does see that he must go against orders and defend himself. He can't let himself be taken.

"I mean that your doom is approaching and I need you to just take the news calmly." Suddenly, the man becomes a blur and appears right in front of Yamamoto. "Please, just stay still." But, Yamamoto couldn't have that. Without hesitation, he jumps back, kicking the sword out of the man's hands toward him as he did so. He quickly catches it and has it transform into the Shigure Kintoki. But, all of it happens to be in vain, because, before Yamamoto can do anything with the newly acquired sword, the man appears before him again and gently brushes his cheek with his hand. "Why doesn't anybody listen to me?"

Yamamoto begins to fall and the colors appear, but now there was a blue star flashing as Yamamoto stares at it all. It was all so pretty, but he knew better than to be sucked into it's attractiveness. Closing his eyes, he focuses deeply on his own mind. He must focus as much as possible. He can't let himself disappear like all the others. He must be there for Tsuna, to be his Rain Guardian and friend.

But the force technique proves to be useless as the star bursts away from the other colors and hits the baseball star, causing his eyes to widen and breathing to become constricted. This is worse than anything he's ever faced and that is a lot.

His descent is quicker than the others, so he arrives into the universe where the others are in record time.

"Yo, Yamamoto! You're extremely here." Yamamoto looks up after rubbing his head and sees Ryohei, Chrome, Lambo, and Mukuro, all gathered together and staring at him. He begins to gap and then glances at his surroundings. "Seems we're not in Namimori anymore."

"Kufufufufu. Obviously, Rain Guardian," Mukuro comments, looking around also. "It's not anywhere we know just yet. It's complete mystery, but we're trying to figure it out."

"Have you gotten any clues yet?" Yamamoto stands up and notices the weight in his right hand. There, surprisingly still there, is the Shigure Kintoki in his tight grip.

"We haven't found much, except for this," Chrome says, holding something towards Yamamoto in the center of her palm. Leaning closer, Yamamoto takes notice that it's a small pearl. But not just any pearl. It was engraved with gold lettering. A closer inspection reveals that it says, "Reflection sees the outside, your eyes see the inside."

"It seems extremely pointless to me," Ryohei says, trying to make sure to stay quiet for the people around him. Plus, the place was too creepy to be loud.

"It might seem that way, but I think it might help us get out," Yamamoto comments, eyes glued to the pearl.

"How so?" questions Chrome.

"That is something I'm not sure about yet." A sigh echoes through the group as they stare at the clue, trying to look inside it for it's true meaning.

That ended up being longer than I thought it'd be. Plus, I thought I was too tired from school for this to be any good. Well, I'm surprised and I hope you loved it! Review please. :)
