The small cat thing dubbed Shi by Reborn had taken us to an… abandoned warehouse… a very familiar one at that, Yamamoto almost laughed at the irony (if not for the danger of the situation then he probably would have) he thought it was rather strange how everything occurred in abandoned warehouses it was getting kind of redundant.
"Tch so this is where that bastard took Hibari" Gokudera muttered darkly, glaring at the stone walls as if they were to blame, Shi started into a little tirade of hurried mewls and Reborn seemed to catch on quickly
"We gotta hurry, Shi says that Hibari's flame is fluctuating, and he won't answer Shi anymore" the baby and Yamamoto then turned to the silverette as he made another unruly sound before he pulled out three sticks of dynamites
"Well we better get going then right?"
"Remember we go in we get Hibari you two form the contract and then we leave got it, we can't risk fighting with demons" Reborn explained we both nodded and Shi let out one more pathetic mewl before Gokudera threw the now lit dynamite sticks at the stone wall and with an almighty explosion we dove into the darkness

Hibari was feeling dizzy and lethargic, there was a strange tingling in his toes and he couldn't feel his fingers, his eyes were having trouble keeping up with everything happening, he remembered Dreneuro patting his head and babbling some more inane things before an explosion then silence as Dren and the man in his shadow left the room.
Feeling the dull throb of his wounds he silently pondered the pale haired demons strange behaviour, deciding against thinking he shrugged nonchalantly not my problem and with a little newfound strength he tightened his muscles and ignored the painful burning that was spreading along his body as he pulled with all his might, he could hear the subtle cracks as his cracked arm gained more gaps and crevices his ears twitched when the chains gave a high pitched whine as they were bent and stretched into strange angles he puffed out a breath as his lungs strained against the pressure of his ribcage and with an almighty crash the chain links snapped from there holding in the wall and he hit the ground roughly letting out a muffled cry as his broken wing fell beside him, without further adieu the ravenette sucked in greedy gulps of air, his eyes stung with tears and his body shuddered while he struggled to regain himself.
After about three minutes that felt like hours the prefect rolled onto his stomach and quickly lifted himself up, his tail thudded against the ground in pain as the steady thrum of heat raced through his body, his arm burned, his back hurt and his eyes just would not adjust to the light, he huffed loudly in the dark space it was musty and dank the scent of blood and mould was seriously off-putting he lay back down breathing heavily, a light sheen of sweat was present on his forehead, but he just couldn't find the energy to wipe it away, he was too dizzy and everything was fuzzing so much, his attention switched however when a familiar voice reached his ears, the furred appendages twitched in response his tail dragged sluggishly and it felt like he used all his remaining energy just to look up
Bari! Bari! I got Reborn like you asked, please wake up now! His eyes widened slightly at his familiars childlike voice and he stretched his arm out huffing a short breath as the small creature rubbed its cheek against his palm
"Good work Shi" soon after he dismissed the creature that disappeared in a husk of multicoloured flames, he laid gently on his side to distract himself from his arm as it was starting to seriously disturb him, sucking in a small breath as the movement jarred his wing slightly, his vision faded again, he held on however as he waited for the infant, no more than a minute passed before the thudding of footsteps and the telltale gasp of shock revealed the companies present, funnily enough none of them were who he thought they were
Suffice to say he was thoroughly shocked to see Gokudera Hayato in the room, the silverettes eyes wandered the prefect's battered body and locked quickly on the abused wing, he stepped forward eying the ravenette warily, acting on instinct the half demon attempted to sit up only to groan and flop chest down to the concrete, a wave of nausea shook him before he tried again, and again he slipped only this time two lean smoky smelling arms curled around his torso and sat him up slowly, his head spun fiercely and the ringing in his ears lessened enough for him to hear properly
"Hibari, hey you freaking idiot! The hell are you doing?! Look at yourself ya stubborn twit!" feeling a scowl he glared up through fuzzied vision and growled lowly to the livid bomber
"Where is the baby?" he slurred slightly but he attempted to ignore it, the bomber smirked and replied
"He's with the baseball idiot we had a change of plans, oh yeah how do you defeat someone who comes out of shadows" another explosion shook the building and Hibari could feel it through his whole body as he thought of the answer
"Isn't it obvious… just add light… that'll get rid of him… temporarily…" Gokudera stopped smirking as he noticed the ravens' heavy breathing and was hard pressed on things to do, Hibaris vision spun again and he felt his lungs suddenly constrict his body shuddered and, startling the silverette, the ravenette was thrown into a violent unexpected coughing fit, his eyes widened and his stomach tied itself in knots as his body suffered from the lack of oxygen, as it passed he realized belatedly that he was leaning heavily on the bomber who was yelling frantically in his ear
"Hibari, shit are you alright!?" the silverette questioned while shaking the prefect a little, having enough of the shaking Hibari glared up at the other and stated breathily
"Hurry up… we have… to… leave now…" it was a struggle to even speak and he felt his consciousness fading, however rather than help the half-demon stand like Hibari first thought the silverette merely swung an arm behind his shoulders and the other under his knees and lifted him off the ground, trying hard to move slowly and not cause further injury to the prefect, Gokudera started walking
XxX
This is seriously not how he wanted to spend my Monday, it has by far been the second worst day of his life, second only to everyday he's had to face Bianchi's cooking, sighing he hefted the barely awake prefect in his arms and as he walked down the hall was again surprised by the ravens meagre weight, he began making theories almost immediately, probably so that he can fly if he's light like a bird with thin pliable bones… or maybe he just doesn't eat?, sighing he jogged a little faster down the decimated halls that were speckled in blood, ignoring the rising feeling in his gut the silver haired bomber continued his fast pace, the only sound his loud clopping footsteps and the shudders of the building as it strained from the battle within
XxX
Yamamoto was tired, like really tired, physically, emotionally, mentally even spiritually he and Reborn had been fighting, more like annoying, the shaded demon for quite some time now, waiting for Gokudera to emerge with Hibari to no avail.
See at first the plan was full proof until of course they actually executed it and all hell broke loose, inside the building was not filled with hundreds of flesh eating soul devouring demons as they first thought, but one solitary demon that emerged from their own shadows and the shadows cast by anything in the room, they didn't want Gokudera to fight for obvious reasons, he fights with bombs, explosives in a crumbling building, not a wise plan so Reborn sent the irritated bomber to retrieve their prize
While dodging another blast the baseball champ could only think of one thing, I wanna touch Hibaris ears, the thought was… random and seriously unneeded at this moment but that's what was in his head and nobody could stop that, he rolled his shoulders feeling a satisfying crack as the blue flames of Vongola Rain engulfed him and he slashed through one of the shadow balls heading towards him, Reborn had taken up… a pair of nun-chucks and was batting at the shadow balls as if they were flies clearly he didn't want to get too into the fight, the demon simply looked bored.
That was until they heard the loud crackling of something distinctly explosive related soon after they were all blinded by a white flash of light, he could vaguely hear the cry of pain from the demon as a hand grabbed his arm and tugged wordlessly pulling him from the brightness, the figure was a blurry silhouette in his eyes but they were limping heavily as if seriously unbalanced, soon thankfully they made it to what he hoped was outside and flopped on something distinctly green, that he knew to be grass, he turned to the standing figure that was still tilting sporadically as his eyes finally started to adjust to the change in light, when they did his first observation was of Gokudera standing before him with a limp bloodied Hibari over one shoulder, in second nature he leapt up from the grass and tried to check the raven over only to be whipped lightly in the face by a very fluffy tail, Gokudera snorted lightly in amusement and shifted so he could let the smaller boy down
"So we really got Hibari out then, oh what was that big flash of light?" Yamamoto not wanting to stay out of the loop began; Gokudera sighed and with a roll of his eyes confirmed Yamamoto's thoughts
"Yes moron I think it's obvious that we got Hibari out as for the light that was me I threw some flash bombs into the fray, Hibari said that the demon could be slowed down with it" just as he finished his sentence Reborn appeared, out of nowhere, and landed with intended force to Gokuderas shoulders causing the silverette to jump and hiss dangerously at the baby, without breaking a sweat the baby quickly rattled off
"Okay, now hurry up and make your contract, I'll be leaving now, when you're done report to the Vongola Headquarters, and don't let anyone see you, ciaossu" with a gummy smile and a small menacing twinkle in his eye the baby disappeared… again
XxX
"So… um how exactly do we do this?..." both bomber and swordsman turned to the raven expectantly, who sighed in a mixture of exhaustion and exasperation, before a word was uttered he lifted a hand and held it expectantly in front of the two Vongola Guardians, who both had varying looks of confusion printed on their faces, the raven sighed again louder this time, and stated as if it was obvious
"Give me something, something that you always keep with you and on your person at all times, that won't break easily" seeing no reason in disobeying the raven, Yamamoto was the first to reach into his pocket and search for something, Gokudera following after, finding it easy enough as he pulled a stud earring out and dropped it into the prefects awaiting hand, both Hibari and Gokudera then turned to Yamamoto awaiting his findings, only to find he had nothing, he laughed sheepishly in return of their glares
"Um sorry I don't really keep a whole bunch of stuff on me like Gokudera, ahaha" was it just him or did Hibaris ear twitch that's so cute he thought only to nearly slap himself, he moved his gaze away from the half- demon and around the grassy outcropping, something shined back at him and he took his chance moving over to the shine and ignoring the two waiting behind him who both had different reactions to the sudden movement, he stooped down and picked what looked like a pin off the ground, it was a slightly faded silver but still retained its shine it was shaped into a circle and had a carved bird into it, quickly he ran back to the others with his findings and dropped the pin in Hibaris hand, staring longa and hard at the object in his hand, Hibari looked up and nodded
"Then let us begin"
