Normal POV
"Photo albums?" Riki questioned as the items got revealed. It was indeed Photo albums. One with Navy blue cover, meanwhile the other one has white background with orange flowers as its cover.
"Ah, there's a note too..." Yakemi then pick the fallen note and began to read it, of course after getting a nod from Tsuna.
[To Tsunayoshi-kun...
These photo album was my gifts for you. Loke sent me these pictures more less a year ago and I was thinking to give you them as your birthday present. But I think you need it more right now. I hope this will help you to recover...]
"Heh? so we can't tell who is this came from?" Sora commented.
"well, perhaps if we saw the photo's we could make some guesses..." Kaichi said.
Tsuna then opened the Navy blue covered album...
The photographs shown there are photos of childrens. Spesifically four little children, 2 boys, a brunet and a blond, with 2 girls, also a brunette and a blonde.
Tsuna's eyes widened at them...
"these are..." Riku trailed as she also recognized some of those photos.
"eh? you know these people Riku?" Riki asked, but the said girl just stayed quiet, silently worried at her brother who just flipped the next pages without a word...
He flips...
Then flips...
More pages...
More Photographs...
most the pictures are the same...
The brunet boy would always seemed to grin widely, The blond boy would scowled at him and only sometimes can be seen smiling, The brunette girl looks like she's having permanent happy expression on her face, meanwhile the blonde girl always blushed and smiling shyly...
Slowly, they finally reached the last page where there's one last photo of four grown ups in pairs wearing wedding attires with expression of nothing but Joy...
Those four are Sawada Nana, Sawada Iemitsu, Sawada Sakura, and Sawada Yoshimura...
Tsuna hurriedly closed the photo album as he bite his lower lips in hope that the pain will distract him from the tears that hanging on the corner of his eyes...
Tsuna POV
inhale...
exhale...
inhale...
exhale...
'Come on Tsuna, you can hold it back!' I thought to myself.
I admitted that it's hard. I could tell that my DV pendant is trying to reach me out desite I've chained it down with Viper-nee's chain. And I can also feel that my pacifier is taking that chance to take my sky flames, making the other flames especialy the dark ones to flare up from the disturbance of balance.
It hurts so much...
But I have to keep it in.
'Now, I better do something before anyone gets suspicious...' and so I take the second album and began to open it...
But right after I did, I regret my action immedietely...
Normal POV
The Cortesia sisters tensed plus Tsuna tensed clearly as they saw who's in those pictures...
"These pictures..." This time Riki was the one that gasped.
It was pictures of them three, along with their missing family members and the dead ones...
Aria with her lovely smile, Loke with his cheerful grin, Gamma and his mature smile, Yuni and Riki with their kawaii poses, Riku and her signature smirk, and of course Tsuna with his warm smile.
something that he has lost for a very long time...
The happy face full of joy that he never got to revealed perfectly ever since that day...
The day where chaos started...
In every flips of the pages, memories flowed into Tsuna's head. His power forced him to see those happy days once again. Which in contrary, it gave a huge mount of pain to know that those days had over for ages ago...
He flips...
Then flips...
More pages...
More Photographs...
More sights of the past...
His breath began to hitched, His face covered in sweats, and his body is trembling. And he has yet reached the end of the page when all of the sudden he screams...
Tsuna POV
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
STOP IT! STOP HURTING ME!
IT'S TOO PAINFUL! I CAN'T HOLD IT!
IT FEELS LIKE RIPPING ME APART! I FELT LIKE DYING!
PLEASE! STOP REPEATING THESE PAINFUL MEMORIES!
PLEASE! DON'T REMIND ME THAT THEY'RE GONE!
I DON'T WANT TO SEE HOW THEY DIED!
HOW THEY'RE SACRIFING THEIR LIVES!
JUST PLEASE!
PLEASE!
ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME!
Normal POV
when they hear that bloodchilling scream, everyone went into panic as they saw their friend's grasped his hair like he wanted to rip it apart. His eyes are widely open but his pupils shrinked in fear. and colours has left his face...
That sight however didn't stayed long, because as soon it's over, Tsuna passed out. But that only makes them panicked even more.
"TSUNA!" They shouted in alarm as they saw their fallen brother.
Kaichi as the closest to him notice the lights that came from under Tsuna's shirt. Wasting no more time, he lifted the shirt to see wether that light has something related to his friend's sudden collapse.
Riki gasped in surprise but no... not at the fact that Kaichi just exposed Tsuna's body without concering that most of them are girls. But rather to find the sky arcobaleno pacifier hanging on his neck.
"w-why? why Tsuna-nii has that thing?!" She screamed.
"what do you mean, Riki?" Kaichi asked.
"Does these glowing pendant and pacifier has something to do with this?" Yakemi asked. But Riki was too stunned to replied.
Meanwhile Riku and Sora are panicking that his secret got revealed.
"a-anyway... we need to help him!" Riku said in hurry.
"We all wanted to, just how?" Kaichi asked again almost shouting at Riku. It was all because he got more alarmed from the painful grunt that Tsuna voiced every now and then.
"I-I know someone that could help him... but It's so far from here. I doubt with car we could go there..." Sora said, she really wanted to yell at his brother for not being here right now.
but soon she had an idea and continue her saying, "-oh wait! I think I saved his phone number in case this ever happened, I'll look for it!"
With that, Sora's busy searching for that certain person's number, meanwhile the othere's are busy to do everything they could to cool Tsuna down for his temperature rised in such ridiculous speed as if he's burned alive within the lava...
Tsuna has faced the situation of life and death for many times. And today just have to be one of those days...
