She thought she must be dreaming. She must be dreaming. There was no other way to explain them.
After a while, without even leaving the bed she was trapped on, she discovered that she was many floors below the ground. Yes, floors. It was an underground facility of some sort; a very high-tech facility to live in, like a sort of hotel-slash-military camp. She was many floors below ground level, and she could tell that those were coming from ground level, or somewhere there.
They were voices, talking voices. She recognized the older, deeper, more mature voice of the Yamamoto that existed in this place. But, there were two others. The others being younger, more familiar, like the ones from the real world, or where she was before.
The words were indiscernible. There were three voices, each picking up after another stopped speaking. There was Yamamoto's adult voice; then closely followed by two younger, teenage voices. She knew she must be dreaming.
Gokudera. Younger, teenage Gokudera, the one that lived next-door, the one that used to be so rude.
Tsuna. The Tsuna she knew, the Tsuna that was in her class, the Tsuna that Gokudera followed.
They were here.
How could they have gotten here?! This isn't possible, isn't it? The Yamamoto here seems to know them, as if they've been here before… I need to see for myself.
Kaia's half-lidded eyes suddenly opened to their full extent; she removed her oxygen mask. She took a breath; she immediately breathed in and began to choke. Kaia winced, and tried to suppress the strain. She grabbed the edge of the bed and pressed herself down into the mattress. Kaia closed her eyes.
She was losing energy. Her breaths slowed. She knew she wouldn't be stable for long, but she didn't want to put that oxygen mask on. It disgraced everyone, having her have an oxygen mask. She was better than that. Kaia turned to her side and inched to the edge of the bed. The closer she came, the nearer she came…
Her hand brushed the floor, but she lost balance over the edge. She fell over with a thump.
Kaia winced at the pain, but she gradually picked herself up. Needles popped out, and wires from the life-support came out. She didn't need life-support. Yamamoto was being naïve, just the way he is. It's a precaution, is all.
Her panting gradually ceased to be audible. Her breathing leveled, and she calmed down. She smiled to herself. She didn't need life-support. The air around her seemed to move for a brief moment, but Kaia suddenly felt a jolt of cold. She grabbed the blanket on the bed and wrapped it around herself. The air-conditioning in here was a chiller.
She walked to the door, stuck a hand out to open it, and exited.
"Na-Namimori-chuu?!" burst both Tsuna and Gokudera. Kaia could hear their shouts even from here.
"You're telling me this is Namimori?!"
"We're in Japan?!"
"That's right…" answered Reborn. He continued, but Kaia didn't catch much of anything else. The talking voices came closer and closer – Kaia came to an elevator-like contraption that was labeled "Elevator." The doors slid open, and Kaia entered, pressing the number one on the wall of the elevator. With a lurch, the elevator began to move at an extremely fast rate. The voices came closer and louder than ever.
"…all over the world. Of course, it's going on here too. The Vongola Hunt has made it this far." It was Yamamoto talking. Kaia frowned; it was that mysterious Vongola again. So even Yamamoto knows of it. There was a pause in the talking. The elevator doors slid open, and Kaia marched on. The room they were talking in wasn't far.
"V-Vongola Hunt…?"
"You guys must have seen it. The coffin with the Vongola Crest?"
"So that means I'm-" Tsuna began. Kaia was right around the bend.
"You bastard!!" roared Gokudera.
Kaia walked right in. Her legs suddenly were very weak; she was trembling now. She had just seen Gokudera sock Yamamoto in the face. Blood had splattered on the ground. The entire room was deathly silent. Gokudera turned; Yamamoto just looked on. Tsuna stared, wide-eyed, as if he wished Kaia wasn't there, and that Kaia truly wasn't there. Reborn acknowledged Kaia's presence with a frown.
O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o
Tense. Poor Kaia, seeing Tsuna and Gokudera for the first time since coming to the future, and she sees Gokudera in such a violent state. Definitely ruined any good impression that Kaia would have had on Gokudera, if she had any. I'm not that sure if she had one, though, not at this point.
Anyway, please review, vote, comment, complain, suggest, whatever! :]
'Til tomorrow, everyone!
