Chapter Eight: New Meetings

Tsuna slowly walked off of the plane, his legs and head were aching due to sitting down to long and having Gokudera argue with Lambo through the entire trip.

"Tsuna, you okay?" he turned to see a smiling Yamamoto, followed by an angry looking Gokudera.

"Shut up, you stupid cow!" Tsuna saw him turn around to shout at the little kid that clung to Ryohei's leg.

"Stop picking on him, octopus head!!" Ryohei shouted to Gokudera who looked up at him with an irritated look, "You shut up, turf top!!" he shouted at Ryohei.

"What was that!!??" Ryohei was now in Gokudera's face very angry, "You heard me!!" Gokudera shouted moving in and taking up what very space between them was left.

Yamamoto walked over to them, "Come on, now, calm down, Gokudera, Senpai." he said standing in between them, holding up his arms trying to distant them.

"This doesn't involve you, baseball idiot!" Gokudera turned to Yamamoto and shouted. Yamamoto stood there and started scratching his head, "Haha…" he said laughing.

"Gokudera-kun, please don't fight." Tsuna said causing Gokudera to stop.

"Alright, sorry, 10th." he said bowing to him.

"Where are we off to?" Tsuna asked Reborn. Reborn looked up to Dino, "I have a friend who owns a pub, he'll be more then happy to provide us with a place for a few nights." he said as he began to walk.

Everyone followed Dino, Hibari who of course was walking behind everyone. He was merely admiring the scenery around him. He looked around to notice many different features that he thought were beautiful.

They arrived at an old building that didn't look to crowd. Tsuna looked back to see Hibari was just looking straight ahead. He looked away very afraid that Hibari may think that he was trying to challenge him.

Dino knocked on the door, gently, as he did he stuck his head through the crack in the door, "Leonardo, you here??" he said knocking on the door.

A girl with middle length brown hair came to the door, "Papa, isn't here right now." she said as she looked up to see the golden haired man standing at the door, "Dino-san?" she asked looking up at him.

Dino saw that she had one blue eye and one green eye, "Yes." he answered, he looked to see that she was wearing an apron and holding a tray, "Come in, come in." she said gesturing the man to enter.

She bowed when she saw Reborn, immediately knowing who he was. When Yamamoto entered she stopped him, "Sorry, but weapons aren't allowed." she said putting out her hands, "I'll hold it until you leave."

Yamamoto was a little nervous to give it to her but he eventually did, "Handle it with care." he said as she put it in her hands, "Thank you." she said to him after she walked to closet and put it inside.

"May I ask what you have come to ask papa, about?" she asked with a little concern in her voice. She served Dino and Reborn water, and sat down with them.

"Just a small thing." Dino said hoping that she wouldn't inquire anything about it.

"A small thing?" she asked looking at him, "What small thing?" she said with a curious face.

"Nothing, you don't have anything to worry about……." he said as he gestured for a name.

"Yumi Yunoki." she said with a look of interest, "well, I'd like to know……." she began to say but the door flew open. There stood two women, who looked around their late teens and early twenties. Both had long black hair, but the one on the right had golden eyes and the one on the left had silver. They walked in at the same time, "Yumi!" they called.

The girl looked away irritated, trying to walk away without getting noticed. "She thinks we won't notice the brown hair that's walking in the direction opposite to us." the one with the golden eyes said.

"That hurts, Yumi, every time, every time." the one with silver eyes said as a fake tear ran down her face.

She still ignored them, at the moment she was very irritated. "Yumi's mad again!" one of the twins shouted.

"Hey, what's with all the new guys?" the golden eyed one asked. "You aren't doing something you're not supposed to be doing are you?" she said in a sarcastic tone.

Yumi was serving drinks to Tsuna and the others, and when she reached to Gokudera she slammed the cup onto the table. "What the?!" Gokudera shouted.

Yumi looked at him and shot a glare, which somehow shut him up. She looked at the two who were heading to the bar, she glared at them angrily. She looked to see that she was serving Tsuna, she also slammed the cup down, and as she was serving Yamamoto, one of the twin's said, "Aw! Look she must really like those guys." she said and Yumi slammed the cup down and was turning to shout at her but her hand swept the cup and it flew into Yamamoto's lap.

She turned to see a very surprised face, "I'm very sorry!" she said grabbing a cloth and wiping the table, "I apologize." she said bowing to Yamamoto.

He just smiled at her, "It's okay, accidents happen." he said to her.

She stood there shocked, she remember her father used to say that to her. She smiled warmly to him, this made Yamamoto blush like crazy.

"Sorry, I'll go and find a pair of pants that you can borrow." she said as she rushed to the back room.

The twins began to laugh, "Yumi, is always like that with guys." one of them said.

"She's so cute." the other said.

"No wonder that rich boss wanted to marry her." the one said with a smile on her face.

Gokudera got a kick out of the incident that had just occurred, "Looks like she really took a liking to you huh, baseball nut." he said smirking.

Yamamoto didn't answer, at the moment he was still blushing like crazy. At that moment someone entered the door. Everyone turned to see a very buff but old looking man.

"Miyana, Miyu, and Yumi, are you here?" he said as he turned to close the door, but saw a familiar looking face. "Dino?" he turned a little shocked, "What do I owe the pleasure?" he asked as he walked to them.

"We need a place to stay and I was wondering if you'd mind……" he started but stopped when he saw a large looking hand in front of him.

"You travel, all the way here from Japan without a word of notice and you expect to stay here?" he said in a serious tone that made many of them feel uneasy, "Of course!" he said as he smiled and walked behind the bar.

"But what are you here for?" he asked not noticing the look on Dino's face.

"Nozomi has been taken by the Vendicare." he whispered loud enough for Leonardo to hear.

He stopped dead in his tracks, "They must have probable cause to have taken her." he said as he poured whisky into the cup on the bar.

"I suppose they did." Dino paused.

"Maybe that was why things were getting hectic." Leonardo started, "The ROYAL council, has been in chaos for the past week." he paused, "I heard that they were transferring a prisoner." he said as he gave Dino a serious look. "I bet you've come to take her back." he said as he drank the whisky.

"Is it that obvious." he said shaking his head.

"It won't be easy." Leonardo warned.

"Nothing is." he said as he turned to look at the pictures that were on the wall. The pictures were of the girls and Nozomi, and there was few with Leonardo and Dino to. He missed the old days, when things were easier.

"Yup, I miss her." Leonardo said. "I hope my girl's still smiling like she used to."

"Haha." Dino chuckled, "Like she'll ever change." he said to Leonardo.

"That's true." he said.

Nozomi eyes fluttered open, as she was being guided to the prison cell. She looked around to see a dark hallway, and felt strong hands holding onto her arms very tightly. Her eyes traveled to see that the place was very empty, "You're in solitary." the guard on her left spoke.

She looked at him to see nothing but bandages and a black outfit, "I think I could have guessed." she whispered. They placed her in the room and locked the chains on her. Her legs were in shackles as were her arms, it gave her enough length to reach around the whole room, but it was about two feet away from the door.

"We will come to check on you later." the guard said.

She looked up at him, and gave a weak smile, as he left she looked around the room. It was dark and more frightening then she imagined.

She slowly drifted off to sleep and then heard a voice, "Haha." she heard someone say in the distance. "You cannot imagine the loyalty you have to him." she heard the voice pause, "Can I become a guardian to?" the voice said as it faded.

Nozomi looked around trying to find the voice, "It appears that they have another prisoner." she heard a voice say she looked behind her to see a man with dark blue hair and one red eye and one blue.

She immediately recognized him, "Mukuro Rokudo." she whispered.

He gave her an amused face, "You know me?" he asked.

"Practically, the entire mafia population knows about you." she said with a 'duh' face.

"Haha." he said with a heartlessly laugh. But shortly after his laugh his face gave a painful expression, "I apologize, but even for me it does get a bit lonely in here." he said in a mumble.

Nozomi stared at him, a thought had run through her mind. He could have been that bad, it was rumored that he had given up his life for his friends to escape, so he couldn't have been that bad. She looked at him, "Mukuro-kun." she called out to him, "Would you like to sit and talk with me then?" she asked with a smile.

Mukuro gave a smirk, "And why would I do such a tedious thing like that?" he asked.

But Nozomi knew that if he was really lonely then he would stay and talk with her. A part of her if not her entire being didn't think of him as bad at all.

"Sorry again." Yumi said as Yamamoto came out of changing.

He gave her a smile, "Haha, no problem." he said as he reached for the pants, "They fit, see?" he said as he pulled it to show her it was a exact fit.

"Still, I'm not usually that careless." she whispered a bit embarrassed.

"Don't sweat it, it happens to the best of people." he said as he walked to the table.

"Yumi." Miyana the twin with the golden eyes said in a song like voice, "You have taken a liking to him." she said with a smile.

"I have no idea what you are talking about." she said denying the feelings that had just began to grow.

"Haha, yeah and I didn't know that dogs bark." she said in a sarcastic tone, "that is a lame excuse." she said as Yumi began to walk away.

"Yumi!" Miyana said as Yumi completely ignored her and walked away.

"When will she learn?" Miyana asked herself as she walked in the other direction.

Dino thought of a plan, he didn't know exactly how he'd get her out but he knew that he'd have to find the people that framed her first. So, he decided to go and ask around, hopefully that would draw them out.

"Dino, what are you thinking?" he turned his head to see Reborn.

"I think I'll go ask around and maybe that we draw the enemy out." he suggested.

"But, be warned that if things go wrong you cannot expect them to be easily beaten." he told him.

"I understand." he said, "I think I'll bring Kyouya along!" he said with a smile.

He knew that Hibari was very interested when it came to fighting, so maybe he'd use it to his advantage.
