Chapter 13: The aftermath of the long battle

..

Tattered and bruise, Natsu look at the form of his enemy. Mukuro has been possessing different body lately and Natsu has needed to face different ability at the same time.

"Reborn how much more?!" he exclaimed as he dodge another slice of Mukuro's trident.

Leon had been glowing for a good 10 minutes now. Aside from Reborn who is waiting for Leon to hatch, Hibari Kyoya had collapse from fatigue and blood loss yet he is besides Tsuna; as for Tsuna, she is still fighting over the nightmare; and the other bodies were being possessed by the enemy.

"Keep going Baka-Natsu, Leon is close" Reborn said as he eyed his tattered student.

Was it a good choice for Nono to pick up his only grandson, not that they had a choice anyway and not that he doubt Nono but the way Natsu fight, there is something that he lacks and that is what irritates Reborn for a good long time. Tsuna on the other hand is a quite mystery for him; the way she fights and the way she moves is like an assassin waiting for a battle. She may be a good fighter but the intent to kill is what she lacks, or not? He wasn't sure anymore, But a civilian cannot be trained as an assassin for hire right? If she is a threat to the Vongola then Reborn wouldn't hesitate for a second to kill and slice her throat up.

"It's time"

A blinding light had made the three occupants to stop whatever they were doing. Leon who was at the ceiling glows brightly for a good minute before dying out and returning to it's normal form.

"Nothing happened!" Natsu exclaimed as Mukuro chuckles at how useless he was.

"look Baka-Natsu" in Reborn's hand, he have a neatly knit gloves, 2 bullet with a red strikes and a silver bullet.

"What's this?! I don't this in time of battle Reborn!" Natsu exclaimed as he wore the gloves in his hands.

"Don't be like that Baka-Natsu, Leon made that from his skin; look at how hard he work" Reborn said with a glint of amusement in his eyes. He was about to load the silver bullet in his gun but Leon stops him before he could do so. The chameleon look at Reborn's eye before looking at the sleeping form of Tsuna.

"For her?" Reborn closed his eyes before he reloaded the gun with the red bullet and shoot Natsu with it. Natsu's flame became brighter and his face become fiercer.

"I'm ready" he sprinted of to where Mukuro was before engaging again for another battle.

Reborn loaded the gun with the silver bullet and aim for Tsuna's head. Whatever reason Leon had made, he is sure that his partner has a good reason for it.

Tsuna's mind

.

"Poor little thing. You were made to kill yet you are being killed slowly" an illusioned snake hissed at her ear.

"No! I won't die. I promised nii-sama." She grunted

"But who will save you? The skylark? Kufufufufu, he is dead by now. Join the new adam and create a new world kufufufu you will be spared and breed new wonderful things.

"NO!"

"Fine by me kufufufufu. You are going to die anyway"

Die..

She is going to die?

Die helplessly inside this stupid nightmare?

No. she doesn't want to die this way.

She needed to escape.

But how?

No one is going to save her anyway

But..

I DON'T WANT TO DIE. I DON'T WANT…TO.. DIE..ONII-SAMA….

'Then live'

..

As Reborn take a shot, the silver bullet had imbedded itself on Tsuna's head. He waited for the result but nothing happens. Maybe the bullet was a failure. He took Leon and transform it into a mallet ready to strike her head but the sound of snapping chains made him stop.

Mukuro and Natsu stops when the third snap of chain sounded again and look to where Tsuna stands. Each chain that binds her body were snapping one at a time and before they could even blink the chains shattered itself and a cry of anguish erupted.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"Baka-Natsu get out of the way!" Reborn instructed as flames that took the shape of chain poles erupted from the ceiling to the floor. One by one appears at a time and destroying everything that made touch with it as Tsuna's cry of anguish has yet to cease.

On her forehead is not the usual flame color but rather than being orange the flames on her forehead is Silver. An unusual flame color which only appears one in a single millennium. Reborn who had taken shelter from Leon was spared from the destructive flame power of hers. Natsu, Mukuro and the others were unlucky for they were hit by the chain poles, enough to knock them unconscious.

I don't want to die; is what she keeps on muttering like a mantra, her silver tantrum flames lasted for a good 3 minutes before finally calming down. The way she produce an amount of flames take over her body and collapse from fatigue.

Vongola helpers rush inside the building to help the future boss and his friends. After they had recovered all the bruise bodies. Vindice made their appearance and captured Mukuro and his gang; thus ending the long fight that they had started.

Time skip.

3 days after the fight.

Namimori Hospital.

Tsuna who took great damage by the nightmare of hers and the over usage of her unusual silver flames has been confined to the hospital ever since. Reborn has been visiting lately whom he finds Hibari sitting beside her sleeping figure.

Reborn returned to his care room where he finds Natsu sitting on the bed looking far away from the window.

"Reborn, can I ask something?"

"What is it Baka-Natsu" Reborn said.

"Nuvola-san's flame. It is kind of unusual, what is it? Why is it color silver?" he ask.

"Prepare to listen" Reborn said as he take a comfortable position on the chair with a cup of espresso on hand.

"Long ago, In the land of Sicily; in the first year that the Vongola stands, exist a great assassin. She was primo's first love—as the history says. Centenia was the most beautiful girl alive that time, but being Primo's sister made it all difficult for her to roam freely around the town. Different cases were file at her when she reached the age of marriage. To cut long story short, A family that rivals Vongola kidnapped Centenia for a threat but it turns out that they had raped, and tortured Centenia beyond a human's belief." Reborn take a sip on his coffee

"What is the connection of the silver flame?" Natsu ask, still curious for Tsuna's case.

"The silver flame appeared 400 years ago in the person of Centenia. Her will to live and the pain she suffered must have been the cause of the creation or conversion of her flame. The silver flame least requirement is to become afraid of dying. It is different from the dying will. Instead the dying will requires one to regret something they couldn't do before they could die, The silver flame requires a person to be afraid of death itself"

"Though it was believed that the silver flame can only appear in a form of a person who had a great desire to live but it was said that it will only appear once in a millennium. Leon's silver bullet might have been the trigger to Tsuna's case.

The silver flame has destructive power but also fatigues the user. She is lucky that she is still alive for Centenia; the first time she use it was also the last time because that flame ended up her life. That all was a theory listed in ancient scrolls, no one knows if the silver flame is a converted flame or not but it is dangerous for all we know"

"I wonder if she really wanted to live" Natsu muttered with a distant look.

How in earth was she able to possess silver flame? Is Tsuna a threat or a usage? But for now, chaos has been cease and the peacefulness lingers back in the air. Is it a sign or the calm before storm? Reborn isn't sure anymore but there is one thing he knows. Eliminate the enemy before they strikes.
