"Tsuna speak to Henko"

"Henko speak to Tsuna"

Cielo POV

"Where am I?"I asked my self as I see nothing but empty space everywhere.

It's kindda dark here. It scares me...

just then I can hear a painful grunt, "w-who's there?"I asked as I forced my self to run to that direction.

At first I though my effort was futile as I can't see anything but then I faintly see someone in a far. It seems he's the one who's in trouble.

"H-Hold on! I'm coming!"I shouted as I ran to his direction.

I blinked as I saw his appereance... he looks exactly like me... some red mist is surrounding him.

"M-Master? *grunt* W-What are you doing *pant* here?"He asked. I gasped when I saw his eyes, one of them is fiercing red. "Y-You shouldn't be here! it's enough that the poison got your body... let me protect your soul from them!"He said.

'Who are they?'I questioned.

Just then the red mist sopped circling the boy and began to chase after me. "Oh no! Run!"That boy shouted. I did as he told.

I'm running as fast as I could but that mist is tailing me right behind. 'HIIEEE! What is this thing?! Why is it chasing me?!'I shrieked in my mind.

after running for a while I tried to glance over my shoulder, They've stop chasing me and it's because that boy absorbed them into hs own body.

he's done within seconds and so I saw his eyes are all red...

He grunted and slumped to the ground. My eyes widen as I saw red aura coming from him. I ran to his side immedietely.

"a-are you okay?"I asked. "Why did you do that?"I don't really know on what's going on but I had this feeling that he just saved me from a very, very bad thing.

He eyesmiled weakly, "b-because I-I... I want to protect you, m-master..."He said with trembling lips.

Without me realizing my eyes are wet and I started crying, "Why? I don't even know you"I said lowly.

"It's okay... I used to hope that you'll remember me someday... but now... it's even better if you don't remember at all..."

"why?"

"Because now that I've been tainted, I'll go even crazier than before. I'll lunged after everyone in order to protect you... I've realized my mistake but now that I won't be able to control myself, the only way to saved you from me is to seal my self away deep within your memories..."He said. He smiled as he carresed my tears away. "don't cry master... 'cause I'll do anything to keep you save..."

"why did you go this far? just who are you?"

"someone that you should never remember..."He replied. I then see my own hand's glowing.

"w-what? why am I-? no, I don't want to leave!"I panicked as I began to fading.

That boy just smiled but then I saw a single tear fall from his eyes. "I just hope that you'll ever forgive me for the past...good bye Master Tsuna..."

Then I fully drifted away...

Normal POV

"This is odd... I'm sure that I haven't doing anything to him"The old man said, raising a brow as he had the finished potion on his hand. "I thought it's impossible for him to recover by himself..."

'was I wrong? or did someone helped him within?'He asked himself.

Meanwhile...

Sora bit his lower lip slighly as Mizuki just finished his story.

"So, let me get this straight... Our parents died from involved with mafia? then Aniki is one of the Arcobaleno, one of the curse that linked with Tri-ni-sette, who keeps the whole world's balance? and Cielo is their boss?"Sora asked and Mizuki nodded, "That is as far as I know..."

"I can't believe this..."Sora muttured. "How could you keep something this big from me, Mizu-nii?"She said with a teary eyes, she feel disapointed at him.

Mizuki sighed, "We just don't want you to be in danger"He reasoned. "will you ever forgive us?"

Sora just staring at her feet, "I can't believe that I've been fooled by you two for years... for you to kept me out of truth behind my own family, That's so mean..."

"but Sora-!"Mizuki was going to said something but cutted of as the heard a grunt.

"Urgh... where am I?"It's Cielo!

"I see that you're awaken..."The old man said.

"Cielo!"Both Sora and Mizuki exclaimed as the rushed to his sides. Cielo's suspicious gaze towards the man turned into a surprised one.

"Sora-sama? Mizuki-sama? why are you doing here? morelikely where are we?" Cielo asked uncounciously using that honorific again, but for this once they let it slip.

"you're making us worry, Cielo!"Sora cried in joy. "why don't you tell us if you were sickor something?"

"I... well I... I don't think that you should know... it's nothing really..."

"stop talking nonesense Cielo... stop lying to us..."Mizuki said with a sad smile, "just tell us your burden... aren't we your family?"He said.

Cielo widen his eyes as he felt that something is familiar with this conversation. He then looked down as he shooked his head slightly, "no... I shouldn't and I can't... my past self has warned me and I do feel the same..."

"What do you mean by th-?"Sora's question are being stopped by Mizuki who shooked his head, telling her not to continue. Good thing she got his message.

"we understand Cielo. If that's what you choose, then we won't force you"He said softly.

Cielo raising his head slowly, "you're not mad at me?"he asked lowly glancing at Sora who smiled in return, "of course we're not. It must be hard for you to keep it for your self. We respected your desicion"and when he glanced to Mizki, he's nodding while also smiling.

Cielo was happy and he almot broke down in tears if only the old man didn't interupted, "Now, can you tell me young boy, how could you restored by your self?"He asked.

"Eh? isn't it because of you?"Sora asked.

"Nope... not me..."He said.

"Then..."Mizuki trailed off as they glanced to the questioned boy.

"Who are you ojii-san? I don't ever recall to know you..."Cielo asked suspiciously instead. The siblings just realized that they didn't get his name either.

The old man chuckled. "Oh, It seems I forgot to introduced myself..."He said. "Well, my name is Tabolt. I've lived over 500 years by now. It's an honor to meet youMaster of all Sky..."Tabolt said, bowing to Cielo.

Cielo frowned, "Henko-san and checkerface should be the only one who know about that...who the hell are you?"

Mizuki and Sora who never heard Cielo curse was a bit shock but they choose not to interfere.

Tabolt chuckled, "Looks like my sugestion was right, Henko did surived... He lived within you, am I correct?"Cielo just realized his mistake.

"Don't worry I'm not going to harm him nor to you. I'm the same race as the two of the mention."Tabolt said, "The reason on how did we know is because it's already writen in our bloodline... is that answering your question,Cielo?"he said.

"Yeah thanks..."Cielo said but he isn't dropped his guard just yet.

"so, now could you tell me who helped you? was it Henko?"Tabolt repeated his question.

Cielo shooked his head, "No... it's someone else."He replied, "I don't know what's his name. he told me that I shall not remember for my own good"Tabolt raised a brow while the clueless two just having a confused look.

"Is that so?"

"yeah..."Cielo said, "I heard that you were trying to save me before he did. Well then, thank you very much Tabolt-ojii-san..."

Tabolt chuckled, "Just Tabolt is fine, it makes me feel young. keh keh keh"

Cielo smiled, "Tabolt it is then..."He then tried to get off the bed but Tabolt stopped him, "Not so fast Cielo, you haven't fully recover yet. and you from now on shall stay with me..."

"Eh why?"It was Mizuki who asked that.

"Because he can't survive for long without my help..."

"why so?"Cielo asked.

"you might not remember, but you've been poisened by the bloody moon rays at the big war back then. you're the only one who got poisened because you have been chosen by that pendant. it might had been tamed now but it'll getting you someday if you don't get reutinely treated by me..."Tabolt explained.

"Isn't there any other way?"Sora asked, she really don't want to be seperated with Cielo.

"Well there's a way..."Tabolt said. "If you could get him to my place every once in a week then I guess he'll just be fine."

"Okay, we'll do that!"The siblings said in unison.

"But, wouldn't burden you then?"Cielo asked

"Not at all..."Mizuki smiled.

"You're part of our family Cielo, so don't you dare to think that you're a burden ever again, got it?" Sora playfully threated.

Cielo smiled, "Thank you, you guys, I owe you a lot..."

Then they let Cielo to rest before they get back to their house.

"I'm lucky to have them..."Cielo thought.

"You sure are Cielo" Henko who was silent for all this time finally spoke. " now have a nice dream... " He then carresed Cielo's hair until he falls asleep.

'I wonder what will happen in the futre...'With that thought in mind Henko followed Cielo to the dreamland...
