Chapter One: A chance
It's this day again… The day I lost my family two years ago… May the seventh, year 201X. The memories… the happy laughter… Everyone… And still, I wonder why I haven't gone insane. My guardians, the Kyuudaime, the CEDEF, my parents, the Arcobaleno… and even Reborn. I've never heard of them again since that day. The lawyers of the Mafia have already confirmed all their deaths. Everyone's bodies were torn apart. It was like a puzzle to know who's arm was whose, which body they belonged to and the such… The only thing I have of them were the Vongola rings, the pacifiers, dad's sunglasses, mom's cherished earring, and many more. I kept them all in my closet.
I've been living alone for two years. With the Vongola Famiglia being totally terminated, all of their assets and funds were given to me as the successor. In other words, I'm stinking rich. But not even money can satisfy the things I long for. Money can't bring back friendship or love… love… Haru… Kyoko-chan… even they were involved.
I guess two years wasn't enough time to heal my deep wounds. I've done nothing productive at all ever since their deaths. I even dropped out of school, sold my house, and bought an apartment that can satisfy my basic necessities. I don't even need to work with all the money I have.
I try to relive the happy memories I once had… but here in the corner of my dark room is myself, always recalling that dreadful tragedy. I can't even cry anymore. All my tears seem to have been wiped out a long time ago. Because of my great depression, I've been living in isolation. I don't think I've seen the light of day in months already, but I'll have to soon since my food stocks are lessening. Hell, why do I even want to buy food anymore? Is there actually anything that I can live for? There has not been a single ray of hope in me ever since that day. The worst part is, I can barely even remember what happened.
All I know is that I was knocked out, and before I knew it, I was the lucky one to live. DNA tests say that I was covered in Gokudera's blood. They said that his blood is what fooled our perpetrators into thinking that I was dead… I know you cared for me, Gokudera-kun, but… I wished you didn't have to do that. I would have died with you and everyone else. But even after that heroic deed, even you met a terrible end. I only heard they found his separate arm.
Still… I miss everyone.
I could smell the sea from the captain's seat. I switch my sailboat to autopilot, and walk out to the small deck. What was the point of a sailboat that you don't sail yourself, I wonder…. Either way, I don't care. It's better to just switch off the engine itself and let the waves rock the boat.
I stand and lean closer to the water. I could see my reflection for only a millisecond till the rough waves crashed through it.
"Everyone… Pretty soon, I'm going to join you." I was looking up at the sky when I said this. If heaven was kind, they'd let them reply to me… but the gods weren't in my favor since two years ago…
At the tip of the deck, I stand on the rails. I turn around, and fall backwards into the water. I was ready to join my dead family up there in heaven. I let myself sink, then open my eyes once again to see the last scene of the world I'll ever see in my life. And that's when I saw a smiling… no… grinning face watching me from the deck. I immediately swim back up. I don't know why, but curiosity got the best of me.
The man on the deck already set down a ladder, so I could climb back up the boat. As I did, I was greeted by a towel and that same grinning face. I knew this person, but I've lost contact with him long ago.
"Byakuran…"
"Yo… Vongola." How could this man sound so happy on the day that I hate the most? Wait… how did he even get on the boat? As if he could read my mind, the white-haired man said, "I do have wings, remember?" Well, he did. But he used those shoes that were powered by flames anyway.
"Why are you here…?"
"Well, Tsuna, looks like this is your lucky day because~…!" With a smile, he raises his arms up above as if praising a god. "… I'm giving you a chance to see your family again!"
My eyes were wide. I was dumbfounded by what he said. How the hell could he bring my family back to life? I don't get it… I've been searching for the little ray of hope that I deserve to have, and I only receive now when I've made a decision to die? What the hell. Why must the gods toy with my life so much…
"Again, if you're wondering, I do possess the ability to cross parallel worlds." Wait a minute. I forgot about that ability of his…! Just by forgetting this, I could totally here the words dame-Tsuna at the back of my mind.
As if I was a puppet whose strings were cut off, I fell to my knees. I looked up at Byakuran. He was giving me a chance… I felt all the heavy weight in my shoulders being released… or my energy wearing off because of this familiar feeling that I've never felt in a long time. Happiness.
Tears finally streamed down my face… I looked like a little lost boy who has finally found his mother.
"Byakuran…"
The man kneels down and places his hand on my head. "It's about time your misery has ended." He wasn't playing tricks on me. His voice was telling the truth because I could feel that warmth in his words. "Now stand up, and face your fate."
I couldn't say anything once more. I was mesmerized by the light that glowed from his hand. My body felt light. This was that same feeling from when I was being transported into the future… except… I felt more… pure?
Before I knew it, I was in some storehouse. I wasn't alone though. Byakuran was standing right behind me.
"Welcooome to a different world~!" He says cheerfully. What else could I do but express my gratitude towards this man who has given me hope and a chance?
"Now, Tsunayoshi-kun, it's up to you to explore this world. You'll feel very unfamiliar here, so maybe I'll accompany you and guide you first as long as you don't do anything that would ruin the space-time continuum just by existing in this world~" He said that nonchalantly. I could only give him a worried look because he was endangering the world.
The man grabbed my arm and dragged me outside.
"Now the tour of S.S. Byakuran is about to start~!" His cheerfulness was getting to me. I just smiled… Ah… what have I been missing this whole time? The relieving feeling of smiling feels so heavenly…
