"Tsuna speak to Henko"

"Henko speak to Tsuna"

Normal POV

"well, your answer would be...

Both yes and no..." Cielo answered calmly while everyone else dumbfounded. Henko can only stared in shock.

"you mean?" Toshi questioned.

Cielo smiled, "from the facts that I've collected not so long ago, the possiblity of me being the said 'Tsunayoshi' is high. my scars, the time line, my lost memories... those are facts that make me thought so.

'Tsunayoshi' is probably my past. But even so, that doesn't make me 'Tsunayoshi'. I'm still Cielo no matter what..."

"then... is this means you're no going back?" Tsuki asked with teary eyes.

Cielo who seated next to him can feel his distress and so he hugged the blond to calm him down. "I'm afraid I won't. besides, don't you ever think that 'Tsunayoshi' might have a reason to leave you guys?" He said almost as low as whisper.

after a while Tsuki calmed down and Cielo released the hug.

"Cielo-san..." Gokudera called while looking down, "d-do you have any idea of why Juudaime leave us?" He said with a shaking voice. Haru rubbed his back, but for his once he just let her be.

Cielo hummed, "by the way you guys act towards me, I can tell that he's a beautiful sky. so all that I can concluded is that he left to save you..."

"save us? from what?" Riki asked. Cielo shrugged.

"himself, probably?" he then muttered, "because if I am him, for the sake of people that I dear, I would do anything even if that break myself in the the end..." it was too low and only Reborn can hear it.

'how stupid...' Henko thought as he smiled grimly, ' But I guess that's what's makes you, YOU... wether you are Cielo or Tsuna. you still act like a beautiful sky you are...'

Cielo began to feel sleepy. well, he's tired from everything that happened in this one single day. his eye lids began to feel heavy. at last he fell asleep while still on his sitting possition.

Henko chuckled softly at this. while The Vongola just let him be with smiles. They even decided to lie down too, taking a short nap along with their founded sky...

Cielo POV

I'm back to this empty space again. I wonder why...

I sighed, "hello? anyone's here?" I called, because last time I still have that guy with me. the one that sacrified himself to save me from what ever it is...

but this time no one answered me. 'looks like I'm all alone now'

just then all of sudden I heard voices...

"Tsuna-nii... come back to us..."

"...why do you leave us Tsu-kun?..."

"...please return Tsunayoshi..."

"we need you..."

those voices plead me- I mean, my past self to be back... only one who didn't...

"don't Cielo... what ever you do, don't let them revive me" It says. I'm shocked for his one sounded like my own voice. 'Could it be?'

But before I could ask for who ever it is. the light has taken me back to the real world...

Normal POV

after two hours of sleeping Cielo slowly opened his eyes... 'what was those noices?' he questioned.

"oh no... did I fall asleep?" he then muttered as he looking around to see where he is. he stop his movement when he feel the weight on his shoulder and lap.

Riku and Toshi sleep on each of his shoulder while Riki and Tsuki using his lap as pillow. the kids scattered around him, helding his arm. he's trapped. and for the worst, his feet got cramp...

"oh shoot..." He cringed. 'I... I have to move!'

"you seems to in trouble, ne Cielo?" Reborn asked with an amused smirk.

"yeah I am... can you help me out?" Cielo said in pleading tone.

Reborn smirked, "nah... I'm not that cruel to wake them up~"

"but you're cruel enough to torture me? what a devil" Cielo muttered while Reborn chuckled with his squeaky voice.

"fine I'll do it my self then..."Cielo then shook the twins softly but they're cuddling to his warmth instead. so does the others. they seems like will never let him go, Cielo sighed at that. he has no heart to force them awake, so he was going to let them.

but suddenly calls of his name echoing from behind him.

"CIELO! CIELO! WHERE ARE YOU?" He could recognize this voice everywhere.

"Sora-sama?" He questioned.

Due to the loud calls the Vongola are waking up from their slumber. Cielo sighed in relief as he can finally be free.

he hurriedly stood up to greet the newcomers. Sora looked as if she want to brust out and it makes Cielo to sweatdropped, 'looks like she really mad at what we did to her...'

"Well, you tied her then lock her in a shrine all alone, why wouldn't she?" Henko said while laughing.

"you got your point there... ah Mizuki-sama seems not pleased too. maybe, I should run?" Cielo the began to stepped backward to make his escape.

Accidently he tripped over Lambo who was sleeping. "GUPYAAA!" He shrieked.

"a-ah... I'm sorry Lambo-kun... please don't cry..." Said Cielo panicked. well he didn't just tripped over him but also fall over him in loud thud.

However his effort fails as Lambo began to wails, "Baka! Baka! Dame-Tsuna is Baka!" Lambo cried while taking out his ten-years bazooka.

Cielo who don't know anything about the weapon widened his eyes and pushed Lambo so it won't harm him.

Unfortunate to him the Bazooka ended to hit him...

SFX : *Poof*

"CIELO!" Mizuki and Sora shouted in worry. while everyone alse stunned as the pink smoke blind them out, some even coughing.

'Tsuna-nii got shot by ten-years bazooka, then we'll get to see his future self?' the twins questioned in curiousity.

but instead of seing Cielo/Tsuna's future self they get to see nothing...

No one stood in his previous spot. and that left them in shock...

Meanwhile in the future timeline...

Cielo blinked to find he stood all alone in the middle of jungle.

"where am-?" but before he get to finish his sentence, all of sudden he feels like he's being burned alive, not to mention the choke that makes him cannot breath...

in that instant he falls into his knees, this feeling, he found it awfully familiar with colour of red...

Henko is screaming in panic when he starts to coughing blood.

It's hurting him...

he's in an extreme pain...

but since he's in the middle of jungle how the hell his screams will help?

in the the end, the pain is unbearable and slowly it forced him to sleep...
