"There is new information about the enemies' whereabouts."

At this, Reborn stood up, walking over to the two. The messengers didn't know what to expect when the high ranked demon sauntered over to them, glaring at them with one eye, the rest of his features shadowed ominously. It didn't help that his form, already nearly a foot taller than both of them, was clad in a black they had only seen when stealing a glance at the pit of tartarus.

Gokudera tried to hold his whimper, while the rain-class demon beside him clamped his eyes shut, not wanting to stare into a face second to Satan.

Reborn picked them both by the collar with one hand, dragging them to the couch opposite of Tsuna. Any questions they were about to ask were smothered with one look at Reborn. Mercilessly, he through them on to the couch and claimed the spot beside the seraph, arms and legs crossed.

Tsuna, momentarily wondering how Reborn still managed to look cool while angry, asked Gokudera in a hushed tone, "What have you learned?" The storm-class demon hesitated, double checking he would speak in just as soft a voice as the angel, before answering.

"The monsters as you know possess Dying Will Flames. With the combined efforts of Hell and Heaven technicians, they have been able to tack down nets such as the one in Kokuyo land fought by one of your agents-"

"Our agents?" Tsuna asked. He hadn't been aware there would an assigned leader, much less Reborn and himself. "Well, yes, Juudaime. The one designated to stay at all times is obviously the one held most dear, thus most suitable to be the leader, so they listen. Of course, it can't be expected in such a short amount of time the most liked out of both groups, so there's one for demons and angels," Gokudera explained, also confused as to why the being in front of him was unaware of it.

"Well? Continue from where this idiot left off," ordered Reborn, glaring at them. "S-scary," muttered Yamamoto. The raven raised a questioning eyebrow. Not questioning what he said, however, but if he wanted to die. The messenger gulped, shaking his head.

"However, it is unknown how the monsters are being controlled, who that person or persons is, how he or they are doing it without alerting us, or even why this is happening. Thus, it's highly likely there are dozens, or hundreds more that aren't as potent as the Kokuyo land net yet, and thus undetectable. Nets are able to conceal hundreds of beings of all flame classes for an extended period of time, and only when the net's been used for so long with so many flames inside. The field techs, however, found that it lasted a lot longer than it should have been, all variables included, and that whoever set the net up must have been tapping into the flames that exist in the natural world."

"So, our enemy is far older than we thought, has been doing this far longer than we thought, and is far stronger than we thought. Big surprise. Still, Kokuyo was handled relatively quietly, so if that's the limit it's fine, but I doubt that's the case. Still how many have been located?" Reborn asked.

"48. Here's the map," Yamamoto replied, pulling a scroll from his satchel. Laying it on the coffee table, Reborn also summoned the map where the transponders were located. Luckily, it's an updating map, so most of the red circles were replaced by the seal of whoever approved it. A shocking amount, actually. Glancing at it, Tsuna whistled. "How many earth days has it been?"

"5, give or take," the rain-class demon answered cheerfully. Ignoring them, Reborn compared the two. "Tsuna, I want you to contact Basil again," the raven requested. The seraph nodded, summoning the ophanim's seal. Since he had already called him once, he didn't to get up and use the transponder. "Yes, Tsuna-dono?" came from the floating seal.

"Basil, I need you to send a memory report immediately," Reborn ordered. Tsuna scolded him for being so direct, but seconded the action. The angel was confused, but after being promised that he would be fully informed when he finished, he copied the memories of the last 5 days and sent them in an milk bottle. That way, he at least knew only an angel would be able to see them. He still didn't trust Reborn enough to give him his thoughts.

"Thank you Basil," Tsuna said, smiling softly. As if the throne could see the seraph's expression, stuttered a response and the transmission was cut off.

Gingerly, the brunette cradled the item, just as he did to Fuuta, and set it on the table. "How many has Basil been to, the locations and dates," Tsuna asked, eyeing Reborn carefully. Sighing, the raven replied easily, "33 in total. The first on November 11th, 2011, 5:23 a.m. in Berlin, Germany."

Nodding, he tapped the lid, inputting the data by speaking that strange language angels communicated with, and the time and place appeared above it as if it were a Hologram TV, and played the events that occurred in Basil's memory. His thoughts were also included as subtitles at the bottom.

They continued like that for all 33, marking down all the locations that should immediately be targeted (27 out of 33) and the two messengers were on their way. At the two's exit, the statue's screams woke Fuuta in a fright. Tsuna stifled a giggle, and combed through the other's hair. "It's alright. "You're safe."

The smaller power looked up at him. "Really?" he asked, doubt plain to see in his hazel orbs. Sighing, the brunette held him tighter, a sad smile on his lips. "Yeah. I won't let be alone or helpless any longer," Tsuna whispered into his ear in angel speech. Reborn, despite not knowing what the seraph just said, clearly saw Fuuta stiffen, and even a few tears fall past.

The power took a shaky breath, before standing up. "Thank you a lot, Tsuna-nii. You… you really are the best," he muttered blushing, before walking out to the door. "I need to finish my rounds. I finished most of them already, so for you guys it shouldn't be more than a few hours. Well, bye!" he said, before flying out into purgatory and heading straight down for the human world.

"Well, that was quick," Reborn mumbled, picking his espresso cup back up and taking a sip.

"Reborn!" Tsuna shouted, elbowing him in the side. The raven looked down at the other in annoyance. "You know, you didn't have to cover that with sky flames," he growled. The other scoffed, countering, "Even though you have a tough body already, not to mention you're so powerful, practically no one could touch you in a fight, you still surround yourself in sun flames! Even if you were damaged your body's cells you regenerate in seconds! You have no right to get mad at me for cheating!" Tsuna scolded, pouting.

"Why are you so mad, anyway?" Reborn asked, taking another sip. "Because you were being so insensitive around Fuuta! The least you could have done pat his shoulder or head!"

"But," the raven started, leaning in to speak into Tsuna's ear, "I like to give my kindness only to you, Dame-Tsuna." The brunette blushed, taking up his own cup. "Cheater," he muttered. The demon chuckled, grabbing the notes he had taken.

00000000

With a single kick, the door was off its hinges and snapped in half on the other side of the small room. The demon responsible was the raven evilloy glaring at the arcobaleno inside, as said violent demon had known Reborn was exactly the type to take advantage of Tsuna. The brunette appeared to be okay when he saw him last, but as he suspected, the conniving bastard had Tsuna right in his arms. Growling, Hibari narrowed his steel colored eyes at him, glinting with murderously cold blue.

The arcobaleno innocently peered over the couch at the first finisher, who swiftly entered the opening he had made. To Hibari's disdain, Reborn remained in his position, with the sleeping Tsuna resting on his lap. "Wow, Hibari. I thought surely one of the angels would finish first. How many days has it been on earth?" the arcobaleno asked with a devious smirk. "When I left, it was a minute from the 7th," he replied, not ceasing his glaring.

Reborn easily ignored it, and happily stretched, careful not to disturb the sleeping seraph.

In the blink of an eye, Hibari lunged for the couch, and Reborn had jumped up, Tsuna cradled in his arms. "You've been with him for an already unfair amount of time. It is now my turn," the younger threatened with a sharp hiss. Smirking, the raven denied him, and sat on the other couch. However, the brunette suddenly popped open his eyes, sitting up as Reborn set him down. Curiously, he peered up at Hibari, still silent. A grin broke out on his face, standing up and walking over to the other. "Hibari! So you're the first one back! How surprising. It seems everyone else will be taking a while longer, so what do you want to do?" the brunette asked sweetly. Reborn facepalmed, and the Japanese-oriented demon smirked, baring sharp fangs.

he grabbed Tsuna's arms and dragged him out the door. Fluidly, Hibari pulled the seraph into his arms and dived straight out of purgatory. Tsuna, shocked, clung to the other as they passed through the gate. Neither could speak until they had entered the earthly realm. When they neared the ground, both Tsuna and Hibari spread out their wings simultaneously acting as a parachute. In seconds their feet touched the ground.

"Hibari! Why'd you do that!" the brunette demanded, pouting. "You asked if I wanted to do something. I like this place, so I thought I'd take you," the demon replied easily. Tsuna paused, flustered as his cheeks flushed pink. "Well, you could have said that at the beginning," he mumbled, crossing his arms. Not answering, Hibari leapt forward, curious if the other could keep up. He wasn't disappointed, as Tsuna was shoulder to shoulder with him in milliseconds. "Don't think I'll let you get away so easily," Tsuna warned jokingly. Huffing, the demon tok\ok that as a challenge. For For hours they bounced around Namimori, barely avoiding hitting humans, and causing unreal collateral damage.

Apparently, it turned into tag, as right after Tsuna touched Hibari, he'd run away, and Hibari would have to tap him. Chuckling Tsuna landed on top of a taller building, one he believed what Namimori Middle. Hibari soon soon joined him.

"Nice view, right?" he asked, looking up at the sky. The raven quirked an eyebrow, not answering. "Demons dwell in hell. We rarely do not feel the burns, both hot or cold, let alone see anything so… calm," the demon answered, looking up at the space. How lucky the humans were, he thought, only to be bittered that none of them fully appreciated its presence.

"Oh!" cried Tsuna, rushing to the edge of the rooftop. Curious, Hibari momentarily forgot about his anger, and followed the seraph. It wasn't long before the demon found what the brunette was looking at, and hissed. The very being he despised; a human. Being an angel, Tsuna had to love humans, but why did he dote on them? It was such a waste of time.

"A human?"

Tsuna glanced up at him, smiling. "Yes, but that one's special. His guardian angel is a… close friend of mine," he mumbled, blushing. Hibari quirked an eyebrow. An angel that made Tsuna blush. In less than a second Hibari was next to the human and stuck his hand into his chest. Gasping, the brunette tackled the raven, taking the other angel out with them.

"Hibari!" Tsuna scolded, ignoring the glaring he got from the demon. Peering up at the human, he seemed to have only lost his breath. If he didn't place the angel back into his heart, he would barely last an hour. "Tsuna?!" exclaimed the newest face, a young girl with white wings. However, unlike Tsuna's pure, sparkling white, hers had faint pink biting at the ends. Smiling sheepishly back, the seraph nodded.

A sweet smile was beamed at him, standing up to dust off her white kimono. Guardian angels usually wear their charge's homeland clothing, so Kyoko was in Japanese formal. "Well, I wasn't expecting to see you for at least 60 years! I hear you got reposted, working with demons! Are you alright?" she asked, clasping his hands and she stared into his eyes. Chuckling, Tsuna calmly answered her, but Hibari was completely oblivious to the words Tsuna spilled, focusing on the female herbivore. She acted far to close to his liking, smiling, touching him, laughing with him.

"What is your relationship with...Tsunayoshi?" Hibari practically demanded, glaring at her intensely. She paled a little, realizing the person who pulled her out was a demon (though she didn't know which one, otherwise the poor girl would have fainted), before answering, "U-um, Tsuna and I had been in the same unit."

"We're friends," Tsuna clarified, rolling his eyes at the raven' behavior. "Now you should get back to your human. It looks like hes about to crash into a mailbox," the seraph instructed, looking at the dark haired teenager oblivious to all that surrounded him. Yelping 'Moshida-kun', most likely his name, Kyoko sped into his soul. Immediately, he realized what he was doing and shrieked.

Sighing in relief, Tsuna turned back to glare at Hibari. "What did you do that for?" he demanded. The raven haired demon scoffed at him, crossing his arms and looking away. The brunette narrowed his eyes. Hibari really was too stubborn. An idea popped into his head suddenly, and the brunette played with a growing smirk. Before even Hibari could process, Tsuna was gone.

Eyes widened, the raven immediately scanned for the trail of Sky energy, and followed it, growling loudly when it led out of Namimori. However, on the opposite of town, Tsuna just returned. He saw the cloud energy and lack of its owner and grinned. He had just wasted a good few hours of Hibari's time. That was the least he could do for one of his friends, who were few and far between,

Tsuna took this time to more thoroughly explore Namimori. The market had a surprisingly good stock, and there were no villains or even much evil aura. Purely peaceful. While the brunette wished to relish longer in the calm a small town possessed, he heard an explosion. Sighing, he glanced to his left, seeing a large cloud of dust rising into the sky. There wasn't any evilness in that direction, so it was probably an accident. However, there was flame energy, lightning, and Tsuna knew he'd have to take care of it.

In barely a hop, Tsuna landed in the middle of the mess. Someone had crashed into a candy store. The seraph quickly got the humans out, who were hacking and had dust in there eyes. Then, he turned to the culprit. To his surprise, the 'criminal' was crying further in the store. His defensive stance dwindled as Tsuna got closer and closer. He sighed again, as he peered down at the other. "Now who would you be?" the brunette asked nicely, squatting down to be on eye level with the kid.

The culprit appeared to be a 5 year old with cow-printed skin, an afro, and horns. His lively green eyes shimmered with tears, as he stared up, frightened at the stronger being. In a desperate act of courage, he shouted at the other, still crying.

"I-I'm Lambo B-Bovino, the y-y-youngest of three! My favorite f-food is g-grape candy!"
