Chapter 2: Classifying
xxXXxx
Tsuna and the others arrived at the Vongola HQ at 11:30 a.m.
When they got out, some stretched and yawned, others sleepily dragged themselves out, one tripped himself because of his 'shoes', and the rest remained indifferent. Tsuna had big dark circles under his eyes, he spent the whole flight signing the wretched papers (all thanks to Reborn) and he still hasn't ask about why his classmates are also in it. Much to his discontent, Tsuna dragged himself out of the plane. He had this ominous aura surrounding him when he got out.
Reborn purposely kicked the brunet's head.
"Itte!" Tsuna landed face first. He mumbled curses and didn't bother to stand up.
"Dame-Tsuna, you look pathetic not bothering to stand up. Is that what a Mafia Boss is supposed to do?" Reborn said. The brunet mumbled something while his face was on the floor… and he never bothered to stand up. "Dame-Tsuna, you're still not done with your assignment." The sun arcobaleno reminded. Tsuna made some whining sounds, mumbles and curses to go with. Reborn was getting impatient, there are thing to be done on schedule and his good-for-nothing student was still lazing around and doesn't have any intention of standing. Reborn jump on the brunet's back… hard…
"Itte!" Tsuna's back arced. "Reborn… give me a break or something… I want to rest..!" He tiredly demanded.
"No can do, Dame-Tsuna… We have a tight schedule to follow, now stand up." The arcobaleno commanded.
"No..! The floor is my best friend!" Tsuna childishly complained. "…And I will not stand up until I –" Tsuna stopped mid-sentence as he saw Reborn jump away. He looked ahead and saw another plane taking-off to his direction. He quickly stood up and ran away from the plane "HIIIEEE! SOMEBODY STOP THIS PLANE!" The brunet shouted with all his might, he looked at were his guardians, friends and family was supposed to be and guess what … they were not there…
"WHERE ARE MY GUARDIANS WHEN I NEED THEM!?"
Tsuna has reached the end of the platform "I'm done for…" He closed his eyes as he waited for the impact… Nothing crashed… He opened his eyes to see that the plane already took-off. He sighed in relief then Reborn jumped back.
"You really are pathetic, Dame-Tsuna…" He commented.
"What are you saying!? I could've died just now!"
"Or you could've just step away from the platform. You really need to you use your brain, Dame-Tsuna…" Reborn said. "…And before I forget, there is more work for you to do in your office." Tsuna paled at this. "And let's not forget the part two of your assignment." Reborn showed a remote a clicked the huge red button on it. The sign with the word 'HQ' opened
Tsuna's eyes widened "Isn't that..!"
"Ah. The flame ring teleportation system. The one we used when we played the decisive game of 'choice' ten years in the future with Byakuran and the six real funeral wreaths."
"But when did you…"
"I asked Shouichi to get it. He's a close friend of Byakuran after all…" Reborn crossed his arms. "When Spanner calls, activate the flame ring teleportation system…"
"Wait! Don't I need my guardians on this?"
"Don't worry, you only need 400, 000 Fianma Voltage… It's not 5, 000, 00…" Reborn reassured. Tsuna only complained childishly "But I'm tired! I want to sleep..! Can't you atleast make me rest for one hour?" The brunet exasperatedly asks.
"And I keep telling you that we are on a tight schedule."
On cue Reborn heard a ringing in his pocket. He smirked, Spanner was calling him. It's time… He answered it and heard Spanner speak "Let's start…" Reborn nodded. He turned to his student who was twitching in annoyance and fatigue.
"And you heard him. Now light that device!" Reborn ordered.
"…" Being pissed-off as he is, Tsuna didn't answer but retained the WTF face written all over his face. He slid his gloves and went into Hyper Dying Will Mode. He positioned himself in an X-canon position. He called for Natsu and did a cambio forma. "Natsu, we'll go on full-force."
"Gao!"
"X-CANON!" Huge hard flames entered the device. While filling the teleportation device Tsuna muttered something "I have a bad feeling about this…"
-BACK IN NAMIMORI-
"Everyone! Step into the device! We don't want anyone lose a body part!" Shouichi commanded. They all obeyed to the order, not wanting to have a body part missing.
"Hurry up! This device will be charged as soon as it lights!" Spanner added. He read the flame reading as a countdown "230,892… 269,064… 351,504, 383,599… 400,000!" As soon as he finished reading it, a blinding light engulfed them all. When it disappeared, so are the students and the self-proclaimed elite.
"Well… I guess that's it…" The red-head sighed than fixed his glasses.
"Just hope that Sawada won't pop a vein…" Spanner added. Shouichi laughs nervously then clears his throat "Ehem… I guess we should probably head back to the Vongola HQ…" The other mechanic nodded.
-BACK TO THE VONGOLA HQ-
A flash of bright light appeared and slowly faded.
"Wahh~~! My head hurts!" A student wailed.
"It was awesome!" One cheered.
"A-re… it's morning again…" Another pointed out.
The Namimori students were greeted by none other than Reborn… and his Dame-student lumping on the side due to exhaustion. "Ciaossu! You might be confused of what happened to you just now but my student, Tsuna over here will explain everything." The sun arcobaleno kicked Tsuna making him role to the class.
"Excuse me but you are..?" Nezu pointed at the infant.
"Are you a teacher or an idiot?" Reborn crossed his arms. "I'm Reboyama-sensei, can't you notice who I am in one glance?"
Nezu was about to retort back for him, the Elite, was being told by an infant as an idiot until Tsuna got up…
"…Ugh… Reborn… why are you so sadistic..?" Tsuna mumbles as he stands up, staggering a little.
"I'll take that as a compliment…"
Tsuna looks at the class with pure annoyance and they had to admit, the brunet looks so scary. Tsuna sighs and rubs his temple. The brunet monotonously greeted the class "Welcome to the Vongola HQ..! Starting now until two months after, you will be here for the exclusive foreign class program. And uhh…" He sighed again and reached for a card in his pocket and began reading it. "… You will be separated into six or seven groups categorized by certain elements that will be explained in the near future…" Tsuna finished reading the card and scratched his head then looks at his classmates "Did everyone manage to get some sleep?" He was answered by unsynchronized shaking of heads. "This is a pain…" Tsuna grumbles. "Listen… You are currently in Italy. The time difference between Japan and Italy is 8 hours… Probably everyone who travelled from there to here will experience jetlag… Are there any questions?"
One raised his hand.
"What is it Kiseki-san..?" Tsuna asks rather annoyingly…
"Uhh… How did we get here from JAPAN in a matter of a few seconds..?"
"You'll know it when the time comes… Now if you'll excuse me, I have a date with the bed…" Tsuna yawns and drags himself away from the crowd.
"Oi, oi… Is Dame-Tsuna really acting like that?" Osamu asks.
"Don't know but I bet he's hiding something…" Kouga replies.
Simultaneous gunshots were heard. Everybody flinched from the volume and covered their ears. "HIIIEEE! JUST LET ME TAKE A REST REBORN!" They saw Tsuna run away from his tort- uh… tutor. Another gunshot was heard but it felt like it was closer.
"GET YOUR BUTTS OUT OF THIS PLACE AND GO INSIDE! WE ARE ON A TIGHT SCHEDULE!" An infant wearing a red goggle shouted.
"Hah! Look! A cute wittle baby owdewing the adults!" Osamu teased. He even whirled his finger infront of the infant. (Bad move…) That infant kicked his shin, making the man kneel infront of her.
"Do you even think that I'm playing around?!" She slapped Osamu's face side to side non-stop. She lets go of the man, whose cheeks were very red and aching and removes her goggles, revealing her red keen eyes. "I am Lal Mirch. I'm here to assist in determining your element." She said, crossing her arms.
"Excuse me little girl but you have a foul mouth there and you are holding a weapon… Who are your parents so that I can tell them about your issues…?" The great elite said. He also received a kick to his shin. He wheezed in pain "You're a disrespectful GIRL! Don't you have any manners?! And to think that you kicked me, the ELITE!"
Lal aimed her gun directly at Nezu's face "Shut up or I'll blow your face right out of your head!" Nezu was about to retort but stopped when he saw the blue-haired infant's finger nearing the trigger. Nezu gulped "That's not an actual shotgun right?" Lal smirked "Test me."
The self-proclaimed elite stood up, raised his hands in the air and made a short speech "As a teacher, I must give the best of safety for my students. Hypothetically speaking, if I test you, I may die or may not die. Therefore I test you for the safety of my students." He closed his eyes shut. "Shoot"
Many gasped at Nezu's action, yet they heard no gunshot. They saw Lal give Nezu an 'Are you an idiot' kind of look. The teacher slightly opened his right eye
"Are you really an elite?" the infant raised a brow.
"Yes, yes I am." He replied.
"Elite should know many things, yet you don't know who you're dealing with…"
"Come again?"
A throbbing tick mark appeared on Lal's temple "I have no time for this!" She aimed her gun once more to the students "Get you butts inside or I'll blow your faces!" …Nobody moved, believing it was a toy gun, since the infant didn't shoot their teacher. Lal's tick mark became larger and pulled the trigger and bullets went straight at the students.
"MAXIMUM BURTS!" A blue colored flame shaped like an eagle appeared, deflecting Lal's shot.
"Collonelo!" Lal shouted. The said person has blond hair, blue eyes and was wearing a military uniform with a number one pin on his head piece.
"What are you doing, kora?!" Collonelo shouted, he was being carried by an eagle (Was it an Eagle? Or was it a Falcon? Just tell me what it was if it's none of the given…) named Falco. "You were supposed to give them a test for their element, kora!"
"Shut up! It's their fault for not listening!" Lal defended.
"Oi!" The blonde infant called the students and teacher. "You better listen to her if you don't want to experience hell, kora! I know it because I've experienced it! Better remember it, KORA!" Collonelo shouted as he flies away.
"Collonelo…" Lal whispered to herself then faced them once more. "NOW EVERYBODY INSIDE SO I CAN CLASSIFY YOUR ELEMENTS!" she ordered.
They scurried inside fearing that they may get shot again and there won't be any second chance or luck.
From the inside, everything looked so high-class and fine quality. There was a huge fancy chandelier inside, glossy golden floor and let's not forget the proud mark of Vongola embedded on the sides of the walls. Everyone had to stare and admire the scene; some were aiming for Sawada since he's the heir to the company. The girls were putting on makeup and making themselves look attractive. And finally, the boys understand what it feels to be stepped by someone higher.
"What are standing around for? Move we have a schedule to follow."
"A-Ano… shouldn't we be going on a tour first before anything?" someone from the crowd asks.
Lal huffed "Tour my ass. I keep on saying that we're on a tight schedule. Everyone is expected to go to their respective groups once everyone gets their elements and whoever is assigned to your group will decide anyways..." She looked at the time. "Now MOVE!" She shot one bullet in the air.
Out of fear, they immediately moved to where their destination was. They entered another room. It was very spacious and has seven objects aligned. Starting from the right was a live flame; next to it was a container with a white marble, followed by a very hard stone, then cotton, a transparent globe, a ripped leaf, and finally an arc with no color.
"This is how your element will be found, you only need to touch those object and they will or will not respond accordingly. I'll tell you what it means later on." The infant explained.
They created a straight line, with the exemption of Nezu, and one by one they touched the object.
"Ahh!" A student, named Michi, shouted in surprised. To the rescue, Nezu went to his student. "What happened?" He asks. Michi showed how it happened. She touched the ripped leaf and miraculously joined together, when she lets go of the leaf, it turns back to a ripped leaf. "How did you do that?" The teacher asks.
"I don't know… Nothing happened when I touched the others but when I touched the leaf, this happened." The girl kept on touching the leaf that mends itself and returns to normal.
"Wahhh~! This is so awesome!" Another student shouted. He's name is Kouga Yamato; he has bleached hair with black streaks at the end. He was touching a transparent globe that had an object forming inside. When he removed his hand, the forming object inside the transparent globe disappeared.
"SUGOI! (AMAZING!)" Osamu exclaimed. His hands were placed on both sides of the container with the marble inside slowly multiplying. When he removed his hands, the marbles formed inside evaporated until one remained.
"Oh come on!" An irritated student named Saotome complained. She is a girl with huge eyeglasses with her hair in pigtails. Every time she nears her finger at the flame, it subsides and goes out but when she sets a distance away from the flame, it immediately sets ablaze. She had her brows twitching in irritation.
"Weird…" Misaki commented as she touches the hard stone and turns to dust. When she removed her finger, the rocks formed again.
"This is… somehow ironic…" Kiseki muttered. When he touched the cotton it slowly hardens like a rock.
And one by one, they found what object responds to them. After that, Lal called them and told them that they form the groups of what objects reacted to them.
In the group with the container and marble there were four. The cotton group also has four members. The transparent globe has three people. The ripped leaf has five. The one with the hard stone has seven. The group with the live flame has six and the one with the arc has none.
Lal jumped on the table and was somehow thankful that the classifying part was done since they were too noisy. "Now that every one of you has found their groups, let me tell you why it reacted first. The materials inside contains reactors. Each reactor found in these items only react to only one element and once the source of that element disappears, it reverts back to its original form."
Their supposed-to-be questions were immediately answered so they just had to 'oh'
"And now for your elements…"
xxXXxx
Hahaha! :D Is this what you call a cliffy? Anyways can you guess what element is the container with the marble, transparent globe, hard stone, cotton, lively flame, ripped leaf and arc? Well... I guess it's easy since they are indirectly given ;P
