The ceremony was ruined and Julie have taken Chrome captive, the Guardians were all severally injured and the medical team were rushing in trying to help anyone they can. The Vongola rings were destroyed and the Shimons have left and their current location is unknown, Coyote was currently tracking them down but there was no news so far. Mitobe was transferred into the hospital immediately, the medics tried to heal him with their sun flames but there were damages they couldn't fix, his skull was damaged quite horribly and he was loosing blood. His cranium took a lot of damage and most of his bones were broken during the fight and he needed a blood donor.


Seventeen hours, that's how long it took for Mitobe to finally be finished with his surgeries, if it wasn't for the sun flames user he would not have made it out alive. The boy was currently in the same hospital was Yamamoto, but it's not like he knows, the illusionist was in his hospital room, the curtains were shut and the only sound that was heard was the eerie beeping of the monitor that indicated his condition. The Tenth Generation Vongola have already left to defeat the Shimons, the Ninth's Guardians were carefully sorting things out about the ceremony and assuring their guest that everything was handled but that was all a lie, if things were only that easy.

When the Vongola came back from their fight with the Shimons, all feud were forgotten and all their mistakes and understanding were soothed out, despite what happened between Tsuna and Enma, they discovered the truth about their First Bosses. A deal have been struck with Vindice and all the Guardians were free including Mukuro, though everyone was hurt badly and damaged they made it out alive and were currently in the hospital. The Vongola sneaked in a few specialist and sun flame users to help with the healing process, Yamamoto was in a better state after he claimed Byakuran saved him or so he remembered vaguely.

Mitobe was too healed by the white hair man, in a half awaken state he swore it was an angel who blessed him with another chance of life, how ever that seemed to be true. Though his physical form was better his mental state couldn't be worst, Mitobe woke up in his hospital room, confused and half dazed.

Where am I?

How did I get here?

What time is it?

Is anyone here?

What am I doing here?

.

.

.

What's my name?

Amnesia, memory lost, when Mitobe was thrown into the ground his head was cracked and the force resulted in sever damage in his memorial lobe. The doctors have not yet inform anyone since they did not know just how deadly his amnesia was, they wanted to do some test before informing his "guardian" which in this case will be his mentor and teacher Bouche.

Hazy eyes look around the room, no doubt they have removed his contacts leaving him in amateurish sight. He was still hooked on machines, finding the beeping annoying he yanked the chord from his arm and removed any other medical devices that were taped or stick into him. A few drop of blood drip from the puncture the needle made but Mitobe paid it no mind. Carefully placing one foot off the bed he hobbled onto the floor one arm on the bed using it as support so that he won't fall,once the dizziness passed Mitobe walked over to the door only to be interrupted by a wave of nurses and doctors.

Most of them whispering miracles while other stared in disbelieve, the nurses made him get back in bed, now that he was up they were going to run a simple test asking him what he remembered to confirm their suspicion about his memory lost. Most of the nurses went to tend to other patients and only one remained to help the doctor if she was required.

"So, can you tell me your name?" The old man asked, his toothbrush mustache moved as he spoke in a hypnotic motion. Mitobe stared back dully, his hands laid in his lap fiddling with his hospital gown.

"I don't know my name." He replied after a brief silence, the doctor wrote a few notes on his clipboard and proceed with the next question.

"When is your birthday?"

"I don't know..."

"Do you know where you are?"

"No."

"...How old are you?"

"I don't know..."

"I see...What-"

"I don't see the point in this...It's obvious that I don't remember anything so why are you asking a series of question of no importance? Please inform me on my condition rather than playing twenty question."

Mitobe was frustrated and irritated, he knew perfectly well that he was on a bad state right now, considering that he didn't even know his own name or anything about himself it made him very pissed. The old doctor sighed and wrote more stuff on the clipboard down, after a few minutes he was fully informed on his condition. The news hit him like a soft rain patter rather than a giant wave, he some what suspected it so it did not come off as a surprise, he was still confused and naive about himself, what kind of person was he? Did he have anything precious to him?

A cursed case of memory lost.


The Ninth's Mist Guardian came to talk to the doctor after he was summon by a phone call, his student have forgotten everything and no doubt he have forgotten him too, since Bouche wasn't Mitobe's family blood wise he felt like it would be a bad idea to meet him. Not because of anything stupid, but because he did not want to risk placing false memories in the boy's head. He talked to the Ninth about the younger male's condition and they agreed it would be a better idea to leave him in Japan until he can restore his memories than bringing him back to Italy to continue his training, his studies about illusions would be withheld until further notice and for now the Tenth Family would take care of him. His condition have yet to be announced publicly, the only ones who know so far are Dino, and the Ninth's family, unfortunate as this was it was the only way, Tsuna and his Guardians are to help Mitobe restore his memories and until then that is their assigned job for now.

The male illusionist who's name have been forgotten by it's own owner was sitting in his room in total darkness, the curtains closed and the light shut off for his own convenience. He was trying hard to remember, anything, just anything, he didn't care as long as he can get at least one useful piece of information about himself that didn't involve his addiction towards dark chocolate. Mitobe closed his eyes sitting on his bed in silence, perhaps the sweet sound of nothing will help him regain what he have forgotten...Highly unlikely.

Two days have past since the news were laid on him, so far no progress...Bouche however did give the doctor his name, that made him happy but other then that there was nothing. Masato Mitobe. Two words that are now the only thing he knew and the only thing precious to him, every now and then he would reach into his pocket only to find it empty, the feeling was of equivalent to a child who lives alone and his parents only come home so very often, and when that child gets home and he shout out "I'm home!" there is no greeting or comfort other than the sound of his own echoing voice in the empty house hold.

It felt empty, that's what it was, it felt like there should be something in there but there wasn't anything, something was missing, something special to him. The Ninth took it into his personal business to transfer all of Mitobe's things that he packed to Japan thinking maybe some of those items would help, currently they were on their way and the things in his hotel room were waiting for their other companions to arrive.

On the fifth day, Mitobe got some visit from his friends who were well enough to come, he recognized

.

.

.

.

None of them.

Tsuna, Gokudera, Yamamoto and Ryohei walked into the room together, it was dark, as it always is according to the nurses, they saw the faint outline of him sitting on the bed in harmonious silence. Mitobe stared back, his gaze lethargic and uncaring, the boy sat still waiting for the new arrivals to make the first advance. Four males, one with spiky chestnut hair with eyes to match, one with black hair and a bittersweet smile, one with silver hair and a scowl that seemed permanent, and one with short white hair and eyes burning with fire.

None of them. He recognize none of them, out of the four not a single face looked familiar.

"Masato..." Tsuna greeted sadly as he began walking toward the taller boy. The other three followed obediently, sitting himself down on a chair Tsuna gave Mitobe a small smile which the other boy ignored and his expression remained unmoving.

"How are you feeling?" Tsuna asked nervously, it made him sad, very very sad to know that one of his close friends have forgotten about him. All the memories they shared, all the things they fought for, even though it was Enma that hospitalized Mitobe Tsuna held no remorse for the red headed boy, he understood that the things that happened before this was a misunderstanding and it wasn't his fault he was tricked, it was Damon Spade's. Mitobe didn't answer the tenth boss, he only tilted his head and look down on the shorter boy.

"What is your relation towards me?"

A blunt statement, Gokudera let out an annoyed "Tch" and was about to give the illusionist a piece of his mind but he knew better since Tsuna would obviously disapprove.

"We're friends." Tsuna replied.

"Really now? How surprising...But I do suppose not unheard of that I would befriend someone shorter than me."

Tsuna felt a bit insulted "He's still the same..." he thought, it brought him a slight relief to know that Mitobe haven't change that much but he had no idea how to restore his memories but he knew that it must be harder on Mitobe, the male illusionist was always so sure about himself, he never seemed to doubt who he was, and now that he forgotten...

"Ahahaha~ It's good to see you still have a sense of humor Mitobe!" Yamamoto laughed, Mitobe look at the baseball player.

"Who are you people...?"

Tsuna perked up, he haven't given him their names yet! The brunet smiled "Ah..I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi, you can just call me Tsuna."

"Tsunayoshi." Mitobe repeated.

"Tsuna is fine."

"Tsunayoshi."

"I...Tsuna is okay if you-"

"Tsunayoshi."

It was obvious he won't give up, just like how he use to, Mitobe still called everyone by their first name...Tsuna's grin widened.

"I'm Yamamoto Takeshi!"

"Tch...Gokudera Hayato..."

"I'm Sasagawa Ryohei !"

Mitobe haven't taken his eyes off his so called friends, but a small smile did make it to his face.

"Circus clowns..." He mumbled.

"What do you think you're calling the tenth you stalker dog! After he decided to even see you!"

"I find your analogy both idiotic and lack prove."

"You want to say that to my face?!"

"Am I not right now? You are in front of me after all...Maybe it is not I who need glasses."

"Ma~ Ma~ Calm down everyone, I'm sure Mitobe is just confused."

"To the extreme! We should work this out peacefully!"

"I don't want to hear it from you turf-top!"

"Gokudera! Please don't fight in here!"

"But tenth!"

"Listen to the midget."

"Stupid dog you're insulting the tenth!"

"Shove it up an ass you silver hair bastard."

"HIIEE! Don't provoke him!"

"Ahaha~ Gokudera, you should put those bombs away~"

"You'll blow someone up octopus head!"

"What the fuck do you think I'm trying to do?!"

"It's not nice to kill someone why amnesia Ha~Ya~to~"

"FUCK YOU!"

"Gladly oblige. Shall I bend over?"

"You're sick!"

"I am in a hospital after all, Hayato."


When their little dispute finally came to an end, so did visiting hours, Mitobe would be released tomorrow and will be free to do as he please, his living arrangement have yet to be taken care of but chances are he will be staying with Tsuna. The boss and his three guardians went different ways bidding momentarily farewells. Tsuna returned home and headed to his room, Lambo and I-pin were playing children games with his mother and Reborn was no where to be found. He knew that he had to do something to help Mitobe, anything, but alas, he didn't know how to restore the boy's memories it brought him relief and comfort seeing that Mitobe have not yet lost his old habits but was that enough to give him a lead?

The brunet laid down in his bed, plopping on the mattress he hid his face in his pillow and let out a bother sigh.

"Tsuna. Sighing isn't going to help you know."

At the sound of the voice Tsuna lifted his head and turned to the source, Reborn. The infant was standing on his desk looking at the tenth boss of the Vongola, the Sun Arcobaleno smiled at his student when the boy sat up.

"Reborn..."

"You know what you have to do."

"But...I was thinking...and..."

"What?"

"This might be his chance..."

"Useless student of mine, what are you talking about?"

"To leave the mafia! This might just be the chance he's looking for!"

Reborn's relaxed face turned sour, the baby hitman kicked his student in the face and stood on his chest when the brunet finally hit the mattress with his back.

"Tsuna, what are you saying?"

Tsuna looked up to Reborn, he frowned but his eyes begged for his mentor to understand what he was saying, "Reborn...If he doesn't remember...then he can leave! He can leave the Vongola behind, he can have a life where...he won't just die any moment! You have to understand..."

"...Tsuna, do you know what you're saying? People will be out for his head, he's already well known as Bouche's student, there is no doubt in my mind that people will use him as captive for interrogation on the Vongola. If he isn't useful anyone can kill him. it won't be another injury, it won't be like the time he died in the future, it won't be like now, he will be permanently gone understand? Do you want to risk that?"

"I...He keeps getting hurt Reborn, he's not stro-"

"He's trying isn't he? Tsuna, you're forgetting that he doesn't have a teacher like me, he's not a Guardian, he didn't have proper training during that time with the Varia, and yet he managed to improve by himself, he didn't go into the future, he doesn't have a box weapon or Vongola gears, he doesn't have anything you or the Guardians have, and yet he is only two steps behind you. I wouldn't put him as weak just yet, not when he's trying so hard to catch up without help from any Vongola weapons. He's doing it on his own, he had potential, why did you think I sent him to work with Bouche? That boy have come far by himself, and you should know better than to underestimate someone, useless Tsuna."

"Reborn, I didn't mean it like that, I just want my friends to have a good life outside of the mafia..."

"He's not fit for that life, you know he won't surrender peacefully."

"Masato...He can do better than the mafia...I just don't want him getting hurt, especially when he's so close to getting out of it..."

"Have you not been listening to a word I've said?"

"I have, bu-"

"If we change anything, from his original memory, he won't be the same person. I already noticed the change in his behavior haven't you? He's gotten more aggressive, that's the frustration pending up from not knowing a single thing about yourself, Tsuna. If you are really his friend you'd help him."

"...Yes...Reborn."

Tsuna knew the baby was right, but he missed it, Mitobe never participated in any major fight, mainly because he wasn't a Guardian, but Tsuna did see him get stronger. Mitobe have come far enough alone, but being his friend Tsuna wanted a better life for the illusionist, unlike himself, Mitobe wasn't curse to be the next boss. He decided to sleep on it, he would miss him, if Mitobe was never involved in the mafia Tsuna would have to sever their bond completely and that meant losing a friend. He didn't want that, selfish as it is, compare to the danger he have faced he'd prefer fight for his beloved companions than leave them. None of them were going to die, that's what he was determined to do, they were going to survive, and they'll live out the rest of the lives in crazy adventure together.


Mitobe was missing, when Tsuna got to the hospital the doctor claimed that the brunet was here earlier with his mother to check him out earlier this morning. Tsuna panicked, how could this be happening?! Reborn summoned the Guardians, at least the ones willing to help, and sent out a search party. Gokudera, Ryohei, Yamamoto and the Shimons were willing to aid him, Tsuna wasn't sure about Hibari since the man himself couldn't be found but no doubt Reborn found a way. Tsuna was hesitant about asking the Skylark, what if he reacted badly to Mitobe's behavior? Ever since Mitobe's confession about liking the Prefect the brunet haven't said a single word about it to anyone beside Yamamoto and Gokudera, but they knew too.

A young man walked down the street casually like he haven't just used magic to escape from a hospital, how did he use it was the question, he himself have yet to figure it out. All he knew was he wanted out of that room, it felt like a prison and he didn't do so well in small spaces. He changed into his normal clothes that were provided by the kind and generous young Sawada, his vision was still horrendous and made him bump into a few people, he mutter a small apology to each individual before he started to wonder around aimlessly again.

He stopped by a few shops just to look around and wondered through the shopping district before finding himself at Namimori Middle School. He had no idea why he ended up here out of all places, there were better things to do and he could be somewhere else like the park or the bookstore. Walking onto campus he felt nervous, Mitobe wasn't sure why but his hand was shaking, the roof top. That's where he needed to be...

Mitobe opened the door with ease and walked out into the bright sunshine, he cringed but walked over to the fence looking down to the ground beneath.

"How tedious..." The male illusionist muttered unknowing of the man creeping up behind. Mitobe flinched when he was tapped on the shoulder, his eyes widened and he stared at the boy in front of him. Angular face, high cheek bones, black hair that framed his face and steely blue eyes that were closer to grey.

"Herbivore, people are looking for you."

Mitobe blinked confusingly, "What? Are you talking to me...?"

"Who else mutt?"

The illusionist frowned, he have yet to understand why people are comparing him to a dog, perhaps it was something to do with a memory that he have forgotten, but what? He didn't have a fondness for animals, if anything he preferred fishes, at least they didn't require that much attention and looked pretty when they swim.

"Sorry...?Who are you?" he asked, the other male looked irritated and raised an eyebrow, what was wrong with the illusionist? There was something off about him, a sense of confusion and the look of a lost animal.

"Herbivore what are you playing at?"

"I'm as confused as you are. Who the hell are you?"

"Mutt, you'll learn that it's better to control that mouth when you're around me."

"Masato Mitobe, or so I've been told, who are you?"

Hibari was shocked, so it was true, the dog was diagnose with amnesia, Hibari didn't believe it at first it was something he needed to see on his own. The Prefect stood still, the smaller boy against the fence, it wouldn't do any good to attack him so it's useless to do any physical harm.

"Hibari Kyoya."

"Kyoya..." Mitobe repeated, Hibari smirked somehow even through his lost of memories the mutt still had the same habit.
"The others are looking for you and you're trespassing on school grounds."

"What are you going to do? Beat up a sick person?"

"Never stopped me before."

"I can use magic."

"Herbivore you're becoming more and more irritating."

"I ask that you use my name."

"No."

"Then I shall proceed to call you by an insulting nickname as well."

"You're...You're speaking formally again."

"Really, I didn't realize."

"You're nervous aren't you?"

"You are rather close, please remove yourself from my personal space bubble."

Hibari turned a little red and leaned away, he was practically pressing the boy into the fence as they were speaking. Mitobe slipped out from the space that was given and turned to the Prefect.

"Are you going to force me back into the hospital?"

"Hn...That's not my place to decide, all I was ask to do was deliver you to the baby as a small debt."

Hibari walked Mitobe to the door and forced him down the stairs as he called a number on his phone, they waited by the front gate. Mitobe sat on the ground not caring if the dirt messed up his clean jeans, the Vongola and Shimons showed up looking rather upset. The female with the large boobs were glaring harsher than the others.

"Yo...What's up..." Mitobe greeted tediously.

"You damn dog! The tenth was worried sick about you!" Gokudera shouted picking Mitobe up by his collar.

"Dully noted."

Tsuna stepped in between the two and separated them, Reborn was right, Mitobe was more aggressive. "Masato, why did you run off?" Tsuna scolded.

"I got bored." he shrugged.

Enma looked at the illusionist sadly, he was responsible for this, Mitobe loosing his memories was his fault. Adelheid patted his shoulder softly but it brought him no comfort, Mitobe was taken away by Tsuna and Reborn. They took him back to their house and he had all his stuff moved there already, the boy would be staying in the guest room and the kids would move to Tsuna's room. Mitobe was uncomfortable with so many people around him, most of them weren't even in his memories. There was Lambo, I-pin, Bianchi, Futa, Reborn, Nana...It was all too confusing, he was left alone most of the time to sort out his belongings to see if any of it brought back anything. His phone was in one of the many boxes along with his switchblade, the one he received on his birthday, the item brought back a faint memory, he recalled a party and then getting beat up by the man Hibari Kyoya that he met earlier.

So far, he didn't like him, according to Tsuna, Hibari was one of the many sources of his injuries. Reborn had him on daily training, alone with his switchblade and illusion to see what he could remember, they already made plans to take him places and see if that would help but for him it felt overwhelming. It was kind that they were trying to help but he felt like he was being suffocated. The training did help him regain some memories, not useful ones though, he remembered to hornets but that was all, the name Bouche came to mind but there wasn't anything important. It's been a few weeks and no progress was made, he still didn't know half of his own history.

I-pin was called by her master and left the house during the week, Tsuna have to go back to school and Mitobe was allow to stay home and try to overcome is current condition. He found a bottle of perfume, female...perfume, a sweet smell of Vanilla but he didn't know what it was doing in his stuff so he threw it out deeming it of no importance.


"This is Chrome." Tsuna introduced, Mitobe stared back at her blankly. She was an old friend and a new student to Namimori and since she got dumped by her...'Friends' the Vongola was throwing her a party to make her feel better, Mitobe on the other hand did not care one bit for it. The party was amusing full of fun and jokes but the male illusionist found no comfort in it, though the various laughter did bring back a sense of nostalgia.

"Have you really forgotten?" Chrome asked him.

"Yeah...Sorry, but I don't remember you either..." He fingered the sides of his switchblade that was safely tucked in his pocket.

"It's okay, I didn't expect you to..." Chrome was trying to stay strong, but even Mitobe who now doesn't know a single thing could tell she was about to cry. Mitobe were one of the few who treated the girl well and someone she have come to trust, however after Mukuro abandoned her and fled Japan for reasons she didn't know she felt like Mitobe could be the one person she could turn to, but even the boy lost his memories. It made her terribly distressed, Chrome wondered if he'll recover at all, she wanted him to remember all those time they spent together in the future and past. Despite her effort to hold in the tears some of it fell, the male illusionist fell into panic, his gaze darted around the room rapidly and he shifted his weight onto the ball of his feet back and forth.

"U-umm...I...Sory, I really am, I'm sure it'll come back eventually! So..So don't cry! I mean you can, if you want but ..." He stuttered horribly trying to calm the tearful girl, Chrome his her face in her hands wiping away the tears, some of it for Mitobe, some of it because she was abandoned by the man whom she dedicated her life to. Mitobe hesitantly wrapped his arms around Chrome who returned the hug by clinging on to his sleeve, the boy nervously pat her on the back uncertain what to do, it felt familiar, like he's done before. A very familiar feeling, but he was sure it was with an older woman, someone who he have known his whole life, a mother perhaps, but why was she crying? Mitobe pushed it away for now and focus on the girl in his arms instead, he was no charmer or player, if anything being in a relationship with him is going to have plenty of awkward moments.


Hey guys~ How's this for a twist? It's cliche and over done...I know qwq
