(A/N)

{people from Tsuna's mindscape talking to Tsuna, Vice Versa}

Normal POV

As soon he finished, Shamal left the guardians to recover. Hibari too has left back to his beloved Namimori-chuu while Lambo went back to Sawada household.

Now, it has been an hour since then...

Toshi can hear his guardians' bickers as he began to regain his conciousness...

"Gomenasai... It was all because of me..." he said almost as low as a whisper. But he knew that they hear him for they suddenly stopped their words. That's when he opened his eyes as he tries to get into sitting position.

"Maa~ It's not your fault. So there's no need to apologize Toshi~" Yamamoto said, grinning.

"Yeah, that kid sure is EXTREME!" Ryohei added.

"Well, we're talking about Reborn-san here. So it's an understatement" Gokudera shrugged.

(A/N : Oh yeah, Tsuki didn't get involved in any trial for he's not a guardian, as well he didn't go to the future. Sorry for the late information XD)

Toshi can't help but quirk his lips upward, "thank you guys..." He said, grateful to have them as his friends.

However their friendly conversation got cutted as an explosion shooked the lighthouse.

"What was that?!" Yamamoto exclaimed in alert.

"I don't know, but I think it's better for us to see it ourself. Come on!" With that Toshi went out, forgetting his painful wounds as he ran...

#with Tsuna & Reborn

Pion Missiles can be seen hitting a green barrier that Tsuna made as the ground shooked at the explosions.

Soon enough rushed footsteps can be heard, "Tsuna-nii?! what are you doing here? and Reborn? what's going on?" Toshi asked in one go.

Tsuna smiled at their arrival before he then turned back his focus at the barrier.

"we're under attack..." Reborn answered Toshi's question with his fedora shadowing his eyes.

"By whom?" the young sky asked again. This time, Tsuna was the one to answer.

"It's Verde, the lightning arcobaleno..."

#Meanwhile...

It seems that guardians at the beach wasn't the only ones that being targetted. But Hibari and Lambo also.

It's great that Fon came on time to help the children, meanwhile for Hibari...

well, he's acting like a carnivore he is. He beat up the enemies that threaened his precious school before he then went back to the beach, sensing more trouble threatening His Namimori.

It didn't take too long for them all to gather a the beach where everyone's doing their best to beat those sea creatures. And yes, by everyone that includes the Arcobaleno, since Verde has breaking the contract.

Shouts of-

"Maximum Burst!"

"Survival Blast!"

"Chaos shots!"

"XX Burner-Ring whips!"

"Exploding Lotus Kenpo!"

etc...

-filled the air as they beat those box weapons. But just like rapid bunnies, they keeps on coming with no end...

Just then, a machine came out from Verde's submarine. It soon sparkles out green-glowing powder.

In that instant all the Arcobaleno froze up all the while Toshi and the others are still strugling with those lobsters.

"Reborn! Minna!" Toshi shouted.

Not so long then 7 drones came out and picked the arcobaleno sans Tsuna.

"Just give up already and give me those vongola rings... Or else, they shall pay the prize.." Verde's voice can be heard as the drones flew above the submarine.

Just then, Tsuna can't help it any longer he fall on his knees with a loud thud which shocked the others.

"Tsuna!/-nii!" They called.

'Why?! Isn't it only affected the Arcobaleno? so why does Tsuna-nii-?' Toshi questioned to himself.

Meanwhile with Tsuna, he's cursing his body for being weak. 'Move! don't failed on me now! Please! I don't want them to know! at least not now!' He whispered to himself but he knew it's futile. But he glad that at least, the other arcobaleno are safe. And yeah, he knew that those who the drones catched are nothing but illusions that viper made. Now he just hoped that he won't fall to unconciousness or even worse coughed blood like before. He prayed that his body could hold this much.

"We don't have all day, so choose now, Vongola..." Verde said again.

"I..." Toshi muttered as his eyes shadowed with his bangs. "I won't hand it over..." He said.

"But..." he revealed those beautiful sunset pairs that shine with his determination as he continue, "I won't let you kill them!"

Toshi then destroyed the machine and Tsuna sighed in relief which goes unnoticed.

Behind his monitor, Verde smirked, "How brave... well, there goes my warning..." Then with a push of button those drones exploded. Toshi's eyes widened in horror as he saw the ashes fall to the sea. He failed to save them...

"R...Reborn?" He muttered in shock, barely audible.

Verde huffed, "I told you. But you never listened"

"Aren't you an annoying prick" a voice said while Verde widened his eyes in shock.

"Impossible!" he shouted. But there at the beach stood the figures -that he thought had destroyed- completely unharmed.

It was soon discovered that the arcobaleno was hiding behind Viper mist all along.

"Tch..." Verde clicked his tongued, "don't you think you've won..." He sid then press another button who send lightning shocks to the beach and his own submarine -where Lambo, who was unconcious rudely awaken-

"Phew... what a close call..." Tsuna muttered as sweats rolled down his forehead. He just made another lightning barrier that big enough to protect them.

"Tsuna, that's enough..." Reborn whispered in warning tone, but Tsuna just smiled.

"Don't worry, I could this much." He said assuringly, both to him and to his Vi-nee who also got her eyes on him.

Now, back to the forgotten cow-kid...

As he was rudely awaken, Lambo began to throw his grenades aimlessly as he screams, "GUPYAAAA IT HURTS! IT HURTS! T-TAKE THIS!"

Taking the shock element as advantage, Toshi used that time to aimed his X-Burner to the submarine...

Long story short, that's how Verde's submarine finally got destroyed...

"It was a fake?" Gokudera asked.

"are you sure Toshi?" Yamamoto added.

Toshi nodded at the questions, "it's just a robot... However, I felt that he's not that far..." He said and both Reborn and Tsuna are silently snickering/smirking. Especially when he suddenly pinpoint a small island.

"Do you really think that he's EXTREMELY there?" Ryohei asked.

"well, there's only one way to find out..." Toshi trailed.

"Let's go, Kora!" Collonello said, then they all went to the said island. (A/N : sans Hibari who only nod his head to Tsuna and Reborn before he left again)

Toshi's hunch was prooven right and thus they gained themselves the seal of Lightning arcobaleno. Surprisingly, Reborn also aproove Toshi's leadership which leads him to gave the Decimo the seal he bear. a small smile present at Reborn's face as the pacifier he held glowing yellow.

"Reborn..." Toshi feel touched...

BUUUUUUUT !

-That didn't last long for Reborn, once again ruining the mood by kicking Toshi's straight on his face.

"now, don't get sappy over this, Baka-Toshi. Afterall, there's still one more seal to go" He said smirking. Toshi on the other hand, is pouting as he rubbed the sore spot that Reborn hit.

"well yeah... there's only one seal left. The sky arcobaleno's" Toshi said.

Without them noticing, as soon they went to the island, Tsuna's nowhere to be seen...
