"I died here didn't I?" I asked piercing the silence.
A loud howl came from the wind blowing my hair every where. I pulled my hair back into a short ponytail before turning to Alba.
She stood out in the open clearing with her eyes closed. Her face held a sense of peace; different from the gaurded look she has.
"It was dangerous coming here in the first place." She called out referring to were we where. I sighed and glanced around the forest. It was dark with only the pale moonlight as its only light.
"And all you can ask was that you died here." She let out a small chuckle. I narrowed my eyes before averting them to my chained rings.
"The answer," Alba called out after a moment of silence, "is yes. That's a very dangerous move kozo. There's 99.9% chance you would die. Are you willing to take that chance?"
Blood trickled down my arm before dripping down onto the grass. It stained the grass's glow from the moonlight and I frowned. The blood flow was finally coming back.
"I'll decide when it comes to that." I replied gripping the wound. Alba scoffed her turning to me with her right hand gripping her wrist.
"That move is forbidden. Don't ever try to do it. Do you understand?" She hissed lowly. I turned my head away from her defiantly.
"Yukiko it was luck that you lived. But do this again, and your future self won't be able to have the chance to die again."
"Whatever you say Annerie." I spat annoyed. She narrowed her eyes at me angrily.
"I should have never even proposed the idea of what your future self had planned."
"There's a difference." I said sharply glaring at her.
"What's that?" She spat out angrily.
"I have something to live for. It's not revenge anymore."
"Mom?" I voiced out surprised staring at the hologram that popped up from when I knocked over something that was on my desk. I blinked taking in her features. But there was something off about her. Her hair was darker and her eyes...they were gray.
My eyes widen in realization as the hologram smiled at me.
"Surprised?" She asked lightly...no the future me asked lightly.
Did I really grow up to look like my mother? I even had the long wavy hair with the soft eyes. This person couldn't be me. I mean...there is no way I could have looked like that in the future. Not like her.
"I only have three minutes to explain this before I have to board on the plane." My older self stated hurriedly looking around alert.
Confusion hit me. Tsuna told me that I had blond hair when I came.
"If what I think is really going on is right, then I'm step ahead." The camera moved making the hologram un-viewable for a moment before stabilizing.
"Yukiko you'll have two weapon boxes. One I stole from someone and another one that was given to me. To open them you must have complete trust and faith in yourself and them. You're the only one that can open them and don't let others make you doubt that. These were specialized to work only with your type of flame. You'll know what I mean by that soon enough."
The older me looked around before pulling her hair up and slipping a bright blond wig on. Her face was stern and serious for a moment before turning sad.
"Yukiko when you find out why I did the things I did, don't let anger and revenge consume you okay. I didn't do it out of those things." A bitter smile appeared on her light face. "Love makes you do crazy things."
A beeping sound resonated from the hologram and her face turned serious again.
"Before I leave I have to tell you something. Liberare Isabella nel passato."
My eyes widen as the hologram cut off. My last words echoed in my head as I wondered what it had meant.
"Self-destruct in five seconds."
I grabbed the miniature box making a dash for my door. I threw it out into the hall ducking when the doors started to close.
A loud explosion came from outside. Everything began to rattle from its booming vibration.
I sighed in relief and leaned my head against the wall in exasperation. First I get attacked by Hibari and Lal Mirch, with a smirking Reborn, as punishment for leaving the secret base. Annerie ended up leaving with Squalo to somewhere.
Then I ended up with Lambo and I-Pin following me with Lambo demanding that I showed him a trick. Afterwards, Gokudera attacked me claiming I did something to his precious Jyuudaime. Yamamoto ended up laughing the whole time before pulling us apart. Tsuna avoided me the whole day. I ended up helping the girls cook and now I had a message from the future me telling me some things before having it explode. Can this get any weirder?
My hands fell to the floor before one hit something hard. I glanced down to see something white. I grabbed it and brought it up to my face. It was my snow weapon box.
I glanced at my ring before repeating what my future self told me. "I have to have faith in them and trust as long as with myself."
I closed my eyes letting my snow flame wisp out largely. I opened them and brought the box and the ring close together.
"Yuu let's be partners ne?" I whispered softly pushing my flame in the hole. Nothing happened for a moment and I started to pull my ring out disappointed before a blinding white light resonated from the box.
A large howl filled the room with a cold chill. Fur bristled along my arms and hot breath blew onto my face. Hair tickled my face and a hardened stare seemed to pierce through me.
Slowly I open my eyes taking in the sight.
In front of me stood a pure white wolf. Snow flames came from its ears, paws, and tail. Vivid midnight black eyes stared at mine with a gaze that held no type of emotion.
"Yuu?" I whispered lighlty in awe. Yuu brought up his paw, but suddenly jumped back when the doors opened suddenly. He bared his teeth and a deep loud growl came from him.
"HIEE!" A voice cried making the wolf jump at whoever it was.
"Jyuudaime!"
"Tsuna!"
I jumped up and peered out the door to see Yuu pinning Tsuna to the ground. Before anyone could do anything, Yuu stopped growling and began to lick the brunette''s face. He stepped off him before walking back to my side.
Gokudera grabbed Tsuna immediately and turned to glare at me.
"What the hell is that?" He hissed.
"A wolf. Have you not ever seen one Hayato?" I questioned sarcastically petting Yuu's soft coat.
"That's not what I meant you stupid bitch!" He scream angrily. Yamamato grabbed him.
"Ma ma Gokudera it's just a dog!" He stated cheerfully. I shook my head slightly watching as Yamamato let go of Gokudera and came up to Yuu.
"Does he know any tricks?" He asked me before turning to Yuu.
"Can you give me paw?" He asked. Yuu stared up at him before putting his paw in Yamamato's open hand. Yamamato let out a laugh shaking Yuu's hand.
"See Gokudera!"
"Tsuna are you alright?" I asked lightly. Tsuna looked away from the bickering two. His eyes met mine for a moment before looking away quickly.
"Yes." He said nervously rubbing the back of his head. I sighed leaning over to wipe away the slobber Yuu had left on his face. He turned a light shade of pink and I smiled at him letting my hand fall back to place.
"Ah why did you come?" I turned to the other two aware of the piercing glare I was receiving from a certain dynamite user.
"We heard an explosion. Turns out it was just you and your mutt." He hissed. Yuu's head picked up and his ears pressed against his head as he growled at him.
"Gokudera!" Tsuna exclaimed. I narrowed my eyes.
"You want to try me walking cancer?" I hissed referring to the cigarette that laid in his mouth. Gokudera huffed and crossed his arms.
"Gokudera! Yukiko!" Tsuna exclaimed looking between us nervously. A hiss came from behind us.
We all turned to see Gokudera's box weapon.
"Uri!" Gokudera exclaimed with a proud grin on his face. Yuu growled louder making the cat's hair go up. Gokudera glared at me and I glared back.
"Stop it now!" Tsuna yelled loudly. All four of us stopped and turned to him surprised.
"Jyuudaime..." Gokudera trailed off. Obviously he never had Tsuna get onto him before.
"Tsuna's right." An all to familiar high pitch voice said.
I groaned inwardly. It was the voice of death itself.
"The raid is in two days. We can't have any internal conflict." Reborn stated hanging up from the ceiling. "So we'll handle this the Vongola way."
Within in two minutes all of us were in the training room. Reborn sat on Yamamato's shoulder wearing an old Roman Empire outfit.
"The one who makes the most baskets within the time limit wins." He explained pointing to two basket ball goals that had a basket full of all types of balls.
"Whoever wins makes the loser their slave for the rest of their lives." He called out as Leon turned into a gun. He ignored Tsuna's protest and pulled the trigger.
"Remind me again why I'm doing this." I muttered to myself lazily grabbed a soccer ball. I shot it making a shot. Lambo let out a victorious laugh as he flipped card that had numbers written on them.
"Take that bakadera!" He exclaimed happily before freezing.
"Lambo!" I-Pin called out showing him Gokudera's score. Gokudera had already made ten shots within my first shot.
"Yukiko-nee!" Lambo cried out as I made two more shots compared to the frenzy of throws Gokudera was making.
I watched Gokudera from the corner of my eye. His face spelled determination on it as he shot the balls one after another. Why was he so determined?
"Why are you doing this?" I asked shooting a few more balls. By now I was already behind by a bunch. Lambo had tears streaming down his face as he watched Gokudera's score go higher by the second.
"I won't lose you to Jyuudaime! I'll be his right hand man" He hissed determinedly. I let my hair fall into my face hiding the small smile that appeared.
This idiot was afraid that I was going to take Tsuna away. He should have realized that no matter what I did I couldn't replace him as Tsuna's closest friend and right hand man.
"Fine I won't lose him either." I called out lightly. I pulled the basket closer and shot balls one after another.
Soon enough our goals were close to each other and each shot we made either made one of us ahead or a tie.
"Why are you so determined now?" He asked reaching for another ball. I let out a small laugh reaching for one as well.
"Honestly, I don't know. Ever since I came here I've been having this weird feeling consume me. What you said made it burn in desire."
A loud buzzing sound emitted through the room and I dropped the ball. We both turned to Reborn as Lambo and I-Pin showed him the scores.
"It's a tie." He stated as Lambo and I-Pin turned around to show us the scores. Sure enough they were the same.
"That means that you'll both have to pay the price."
"Reborn!" Tsuna cried out in protest.
"You two will clean the hide out, make the food, wash the clothes, and wash the dishes." He stated making Tsuna fall.
"That's basically what Kyoko and Haru do!" Tsuna exclaimed only to get kicked by Reborn who magically went back to his original outfit.
"Dame-Tsuna they're the only one who do the chores. To be a great boss you need to treat women well and give them a day off." Reborn lectured.
I turned to Gokudera right as Lambo jumped onto me.
"Yukiko-nee!" He cried out reaching into his afro. He pulled out a wrapped candy and held it out to me. "Lambo feels nice today!"
I smiled at him softly holding him in my arms. "Is that so Lambo-kun? Then I mustn't waste this opportunity."
I grabbed the candy with my lips before placing it inside my mouth. I rolled it around unwrapping it as the little cow stared at me curiously.
I pushed the unwrapped wrapper out before grabbing it. Lambo's eyes widen.
"Lambo can do that too!" He grabbed another from his afro and popped the candy into his mouth.
I turned back to Gokudera realizing that he was staring at me with an unreadable expression. I tilted my head as he looked up at me before looking away with a flushed cheeks.
"I'm still going to be Jyuudaime's right hand man!"
"Gokudera, I don't have my eyes that position. It's yours to have, besides I don't think Tsuna would want it any other way." I looked at Tsuna who was laughing with Futa and Yamamato. I smiled before turning back to Gokudera's quizzical gaze.
"I can't choose who Jyuudaime can have in his life." He said carefully with a huff. "But, he seems more happier since you've been here." He mumbled the last part lowly to himself.
"Gokudera?" I called making the bomber look at me.
"I'm glad Tsuna met you, even though you're walking cancer." I smiled at him before walking to where the guys were.
"I did it Yukiko-nee!" Lambo stated slyly showing my his unwrapped wrapper. By the way it was unwrapped you could tell he did it by hand but I gave him a proud smile.
"Sugio Lambo! You really are the best!" Making the cow laugh boastfully.
A cold chill ran up my spine and I sneezed.
"Veila-chan was the Vongola's guardian after all." Byakuran repeated to himself a frown placed on his face. A blank face stared up at him.
"That won't do. Aka-chan I need you take care of her." Bykauran smiled at the girl popping a marshmallow into his mouth.
"Hai Byakuran-sama." The blank face smirked before turning off the connection.
"I'm not the same girl I was back then Yukiko. I'll make you pay for what happened to Hiro and I as you luxuriantly led your life free from the Vindice." She hissed with malice. She brought up her wrist to show the mark that was branded onto her skin permanently.
The mark that showed who she used to be. The person she was proud to be until she had to lower herself to become some mafia's dog. A member of the forgotten organization.
Organization Orphan.

*deleted scene*
Did I really grow up to look like my mother? I even had the long wavy hair with the soft eyes. This person couldn't be me. I mean...there is no way I could have looked like that in the future. Not like her.
I closed my eyes remembering the time when I wore one of her kimonos. I was just seven at the time and around the time we finally settled down in Namimori.
The kimono hung off my small body and she grabbed my hand with a soft smile on her face. Her eyes held sadness in them and her hair fell down on her back in waves.
"Yukiko, I wore this when your father and I first started dating. In fact within our first week of dating, he bought this for me when I told him I didn't own one. It was for one of the annual festivals in Showa."
"Mommy why did we leave daddy back home?" I innocently asked. Her eyes became sadder.
"Because sweetie we can't take him here."
"Will we go visit him?"
"Of course honey. Every year on his birthday and on his.." She broke off and hugged me closer to her. "On the anniversary of his death."
