His Extra Sense

Chapter Two


Time Unknown

Undetermined Location; Alone in pure darkness

.

.

.

Tsuna groaned as he slowly came to consciousness with a throbbing head. It felt like there were hundreds of hammers trying to bash his head open, along with a few that keeps poking the aching parts of his body. Slowly sitting up with his hand supporting his head, Tsuna opened his eyes and stared worriedly at the darkness surrounding him.

Where am I?

The brunet turned to look at his surroundings and frowned when he saw nothing but black. He tried his best to keep breathing steadily. Was... Was he safe. He isn't in anywhere dangerous, right?... Okay, maybe, right.

He was nowhere where those creatures could catch up to him.

But wait, didn't he just faint in the middle of the road at his last memory?

And what was that bright light?

Well, Tsuna has nothing about what the heck was that, but honestly, he's very thankful for that. It was the one who drove the creature away, right?

"Oh, you're already awake~Mou Tsu-chan, you could've spoken to alert me or something~"

Tsuna blinked at the unfamiliar voice as realization dawned into him. Was it one of them? Was the thing back? Why was it here? His body started breaking out to shivers, while his breathing abruptly turned into gasps and it was hard to breath.

Would it hurt him?

His hands went over to block his ears as he pressed his eyes shut.

Really, why was it here?

Shouldn't he be safe here?

Why couldn't his life be safe even just on-

Suddenly, warmth embraced his trembling figure, making brown eyes fly open.

Tsuna felt arms surrounding him and there was something holding his head, pushing it to what seems to be a shoulder. The brunet felt haze overcome his mind before suddenly, he couldn't think properly. Slowly, he could feel the coldness surrounding him disappear, along with all the fear and nervousness pooling in his stomach, as he listened to a sudden appearance of a beating heart.

An alive person's beating heart.

Alive.

Person.

Tsuna gasped at the contact and for reasons he doesn't know, he started sobbing and hugged back with whimpers escaping his throat, his eyes closing back down again and a fearful crease of the brow.

"Shh… Calm down Tsu-chan, it's okay. You're okay. As long as you have me here, all will be okay." A sultry and sly-sounding voice swifted, coming from above his head.

The depthness and intonation of the voice indicated that it came from someone you would never want to associate with, but for some reason, Tsuna felt otherwise. He didn't know why, he didn't know who the heck the one who's hugging him is—hell, it could even seriously be one of those creatures, just pretending to be a personbut he felt safe.

Then gradually, he felt the heat retract from him as those arms surrounding him started to move away. With an undignified and pitiful whimper, Tsuna tried his best to keep the-one-he's-hugging from moving away by clutching on what it seems to be the other's clothes.

The voice chuckled, "Now, now Tsu-chan. You have to let me go~ And also—" The brunet felt warm fingertips press at his chin and forced him to look up, his eyes opening too in surprise in the process. "—There, that's better~! You should never close your eyes Tsu-chan. You'll never know if I'm one of them if you never look and see for yourself~"

A young man with unruly white hair and purple eyes—a small tattoo with the same color underneath an eye—sang, a grin highlighting his more than decent features as the hand from Tsuna's chin moved to pat his head.

"A…" Unconsciously, Tsuna spoke. "Are you o-one of them t-then?" He had to be sure. He had to make sure.

The man chortled, "No, I am not. I'm your friend, okay Tsu-chan? And as your friend, I promise to keep you away from those things. Do... Do you accept?"

"I…" Tsuna nodded, eyes drooping as a sign of gratefulness, "Y-Yes… Thank you."

"Great~!" Unexpectedly, the other laughed, almost sounding ominous in the process.

Did he make the right decision?

"Then I will also tell you everything I think you need to know the next time we meet, that I promise." The white-haired man paused before giving a large grin.

"And now for the contract." The brunet felt the hand patting his head move to the back and push him forward—wherein his lips came contact with another.

Wait, what?

Immediately, something clicked and Tsuna's eyes. Alarm bells suddenly started ringing as soon as the snap sounded and he immediately pushed the other away, forcefully cutting off the kiss.

Tsuna spat. rubbing his mouth hard and turning to look at the man. It was only for a second, but he swears he saw wicked triumphance glinting sharply in those purple eyes. What the heck? "W-What was that for?!"

"As I said, it was the contract, Tsu-chan! Now, we're binded to each other because of it. Aren't you glad?" An innocent smile appeared on the other's face—but now, Tsuna felt it was anything but innocent. It felt vicious.

"Contract? I n-never agreed to anything l-like that! And w-who are you anyway? H-How do you know my name?!"

"My, my, turning feisty, I see." The supposedly-warm smile disappeared and instead, a smirk replaced it. The aura of the man suddenly turned dark as he chuckled, this time making Tsuna shiver at it.

How could Tsuna not notice this in the first place? Did he turn blind?

"Haa~ It seems that you got through my hypnotization, just expected of my Tsu-chan! Normally, every other people would still be under my spell unless I told it so."

Wait. "Hypnotization? Y…You hypnotized me?!" Tsuna shrieked.

"Of course!" The other man giggled. "How else would I make you calm down and make you agree to my contract at the same time?"

"I… How… H-How could you?! I-I'm not a toy! S-Stop playing with m—HIEEEE!"

All of the sudden, the man appeared in front of Tsuna, making him screech back in surprise and bite his tongue. Fear flooded his system when he saw a livid glister appear on the other's darkened eyes and whimpered, "Remember Tsu-chan. I'd never play with you just like that, so never think that way again, okay?"

The brunet gasped when he felt something compress his shoulder tight. He peered over and winced when he saw that it was the man's hand pressing to it. Hard. Promptly, the brunet nodded furiously to just make it stop. It hurts. It hurts. It hurts

"Good," The pain stopped and Tsuna sighed in relief. The man's smile was back on his face and—out of the blue, Tsuna's consciousness started to drift and all his energy seemed to seep out his body. The purple-eyed man caught sight of this, 'tsk'ing, as he placed a hand behind the brunet, just in time to catch the other's limp body.

"Out of time already? Haa, how boring."

Before Tsuna completely blacked out, he felt lips press against his forehead. A few seconds afterwards, there were puffs of breath beside his ear, making him shiver in who-knows-what emotion.

"It's Byakuran, Tsu-chan~"

A smirk.

"Remember that the next time we'll meet."

7:59 AM

"Hiieee!"

Tsuna awoke with a shriek dying in his throat, sitting up abruptly on his bed and heaved. With eyes as wide as saucers, he stared around his surroundings, said-eyes trying to be accustomed at the dimness around him.

What the heck?

Was that just a dream? What was that for? It just… It just seemed so rea—...Eh? W-What...? He forgot what he was thinking about. Tsuna knew he dreamt of something. But what was it? Why couldn't he recall? Why couldn't he remembe—pain.

Wincing, Tsuna grunted as he felt a sharp sting run across his back and shoulder. Slowly, a dull throb started to appear at the back of his head and every part of him just ached. Pricks of pines and needles kneaded across his skin, before a series of footsteps sounded. The brunet closed an eye as a reaction when the door slammed open and light promptly shone inside the formerly dark room.

"Tsu-kun?!"

Tsuna hissed quietly and leaned back to the headrest of the bed, groaning slightly afterwards. That voice... Was it..?

"Oh my Go—Tsu-kun! You're finally awake!"

He peered slightly at his side before a body cut his line of vision and brown short hair shrouded his eyes.

"You stupid, stupid boy! What were you thinking?! Running out of the house like that! What if something horrible happened to you?!"

Tsuna blinked, "M-Mom?" He flinched at the hoarseness of his voice.

At that, the body pulled away and then showed the puffy, reddish face of a worried-stricken mother. A sense of guilt attacked the brunet as he took the state of his parent in. She looked like a wreck. "It is me!" Nana sniffed before bawling and hugging her son—her actions something alike to a whirlwind of emotions. "I was so worried! I couldn't bear it if something happened to you!" She whined, tightening her grip around Tsuna's body—who in return, coughed at the tightness.

He couldn't breath.

"I-I mean, you're one of the clumsiest kids I know, and… and you're my son! My only son! Oh gosh, are you still hurt somewhere Tsu-kun? Are you alright now?" Nana pulled away for a second—Tsuna gasping in all the oxygen he could take—before hugging the other again, the brunet 'eep'ing back. "Oh Tsu-kun! You made me so, so, so worried!"

Unknown to the female, Tsuna was slowly turning blue and started scratching his mother's back lightly, "M-Mom… Can't breath…! M-Mom…!"

Thankfully, a savior finally came. "Nana-san, it seems that you're suffocating your son. You might want to lay down the hugging a bit," A voice sounded at the doorway.

Tsuna felt his mother jump, "O-Oh. S-Sorry, sorry, I just got a bit too excited… I-I think." Nana pulled away and finally, he could breath again. Finally, he heaved.

A chuckle, "It's alright."

The brunet looked up and found Cozart staring at him with a blank gaze, before glancing over his mother with a smile. Huh? What was that for? Tsuna thought as the redhead spoke, "Would you mind fetching water and a few snacks, Nana-san? I think that your son would appreciate that, won't you?" He looked back to the youngest.

The brunet's mind went blank, "E-Eh?" He wasn't hungry or anything at all, why did Cozart-nii think tha—Out of the blue, the redhead winked at him briefly and slowly, Tsuna understood what the other was trying to say.

Oh.

Now understanding what the other wanted to happen, the brunet mustered a weak smile at the female Sawada, "Y-Yeah… W-Water seems to be a good idea k-kaa-san."

"Really? Oh, wait." Nana blinked, cupping her cheek in surprise at the process. "Why didn't I think of that? Excuse me, I'll go get some food for you. Rest for a bit okay, Tsu-kun? And—oh, Cozart-kun, would you like some snacks too?"

The redhead shook his head and waved a hand, "No thank you."

"All right. Wait for me, okay Tsu-kun? I'll be right back," With that, Nana pressed a chaste kiss on her son's forehead before leaving the room in a flurry. Tsuna watched his mother's back disappear before sighing, almost relieved. It was refreshing to think that his mom cares for him like that, but sometimes… it's a bit too extreme. Not that he's complaining though. He appreciates the fact that at least someone still loves him despite his uselessness and weirdness.

...

Well, that became sad fast.

"Nice to have a mom like her, huh?"

Looking up, Tsuna nodded hesitantly as Cozart walked nearer to him. "G-Guess so…" The redhead smiled before stopping in front of the brunet and patting his head.

"Hey now, no need to act so stiff with me,"

"S-Sorry…"

"Hm, it's no big deal," Cozart hummed. "But anyway, you alright? It was a surprise finding you in the street unconscious, you know. Worrying even."

"Is…Is that so? S-Sorry, I feel okay now. Just a b-bit dizzy," Lies. I feel like shit. "Um… What time is it?"

"It's—" Cozart looked at his black watch. "—eight in the morning. You slept through the night actually. But," He looked at the brunet warningly, "You still need to rest more."

Tsuna gulped, "O-Okay." He wasn't planning to go anywhere anyway.

A few seconds later, Cozart hummed. "Hm… Well, can I ask you something?"

The younger blinked, "Huh? W-What is it?"

"Actually-would you like to tell me why you ran out the house so fast? And in the middle of the night?"

"Oh… that," Of course he would ask about that, Tsuna bitterly thought as he kept quiet. It was to be expected, right?

As if sensing this though, Cozart scratched his head sheepishly. "I... I thought that you'd feel more comfortable telling if your mom wasn't here. It seemed—well, at least, to me— that you didn't want her to know the reason. Guess that's not it, huh?" He laughed awkwardly.

Tsuna kept quiet, though now somehow ignoring a distinct calling that sounded near him—'You should tell him. He'd understand. I promise, he'll understand'—He was just getting a bit crazy, that's all. Anyway, it was stupid to think that someone would understand him. Like, if he couldn't tell his own mother, his own blood and flesh—how could he manage telling another, right?

Somehow after that, he heard something—someone—sigh.

'So stubborn…'

Was it just his imagination?

"So…" Cozart's voice brought him back to reality. "You really don't want to tell me?"

Tsuna looked at him for a few seconds before looking back down again,"S…Sorry."

Cozart sighed, before he sent a small smile and rubbed the back of his head, his left hand on his hip. "No, I understand. Too private, huh? Well anyway, tomorrow, I'll convince Nana-san to let us go to town at noon. You owe my friend a thank you or some sort,"

Tsuna perked up at this, "Your friend? W-Why?"

"Oh yeah, you just woke up. Of course you don't know, silly me," The redhead laughed. "Truth be told, me and Nana-san weren't the one who found you. It's my friend down the road—coincidentally, you passed out in front of his house and he went out to get a breather or something. He took you in and well, I found out so we got you."

"…Oh. So I r-really do need to thank him…"

"You betcha. Don't worry, you didn't get any wounds or bruises at all, just sore body parts and scratches that would heal in just a day." The older male grinned before perking up when he heard light steps making their way near the room, "Oh, it seems your mom is bac—"

"Cozart-nii, what was your friend's name?"

Cozart blinked, surprised at the somehow-rude interruption the younger did(Pretty shocking since it struck him that the brunet was a shy fellow who won't do stuff like that without thinking). Nevertheless, the redhead answered.

"My friend, huh? His name's Ieyasu Vongola, but me and our friends call him Giotto. Oh, is it just me or do you look a lot like hi—"

"I'm bac—Eeek!"

Ie…Ieyasu-san, then? Tsuna blankly thought, not bothering to reply, as his mother entered the room with a tray filled with food and a shriek, almost tripping at the edge of the carpet. Could he be related to the bright light I saw that night?

The brunet didn't know why, but a tugging feeling inside him told him that the Ieyasu guy really was.

6:47 AM

"I'm still very against this," Nana frowned as she wrapped the scarf around her son's neck multiple times, ignoring the squirming of the latter under her grasps. "Tsu-kun just recovered yesterday! Are you sure that it's alright for him to do this?"

"Kaa-san, stop wrapping it too tightly. It's hot."

"Don't worry, I'm sure he's fine already," Cozart grinned as he returned from fetching his jacket and car keys. "We'll just be out for a bit. Besides, don't you trust me, Nana-san?"

"Huh? Of course not! I trust you very much, just.… Just!" Slowly, Nana started whining, unconsciously tightening the scarf. "You know a mother's love, right Coza—" "K-Kaa-san…!" "—rt-kun? I just worry about my little boy so much and, and…!"

"Calm down Nana-san," Putting a hand on the female's arm, Cozart slowly pushed away the limb and grabbing the heaving Tsuna by the shoulders lightly. The redhead grinned, "I was just teasing. Anyway, we're going. Say bye Tsuna-kun,"

"H-Ha?" The brunet blinked, surprised, before awkwardly following what was told for him to do. "Oh, b-bye kaa-san." Wait, why am I being treated like a child?

"Take care Tsu-kun! Remember to remove the scarf if it gets too hot, okay? You too, Cozart-kun."

Nodding before giving a wave, the redhead steered them away towards the doorstep, only removing his arms off the brunet when he had to open the door. "Bye." They stepped outside.

Shivering when the cold air hit them, Tsuna buried his face deeper into the dark-orange scarf. Was it really necessary for them to go so early in the morning? It's just down the road right? They could always go at the afternoon when everything's alive and cheery.

"C'mon, let's go,"

Not bothering to voice out his thoughts though, Tsuna nodded and followed Cozart as the latter motioned to the car parked beside theirs. It was smooth and black, slim though somehow big. Comparing it to their old, white-now-turning gray one, it… looked pretty new and amazing. No offense intended.

Brushing off his absent-minded thoughts, Tsuna followed the older male towards the vehicle.

6:58 AM

"Cozart? What are you doing here now?

"Remember the kid you took in the other night? He's here to say thank you."

"Oh, really? Where's he?"

"Huh? Isn't he just behind m—Eh, Tsuna-kun? Where did you go?"

Clamping his teeth together, Tsuna tried his best to burrow himself into the green bushes in front of the house. Luckily, it was large enough to accomodate his lithe form though not too much to be an obvious hiding spot. He tried keeping in his whimpers as flashes of memories started flooding him.

It was too much.

Abruptly, everything just came back to him.

Starting from the creepy creature from the other day and to the dream he had yesterday. Unconsciously, his finger went up to press against his lips, sending shivers to shoot up his spine.

However, why was he hiding though?

It's because for some reason, Tsuna felt like he needed to. The moment they arrived at the house, he felt like that. It was weird and stupid but he went along with it.

'Psst…'

Eh?

'Psst!'

Did… W-Was he hearing things?

'I know you could hear me booy… Look heeere, yoohooo~'

At that instant, Tsuna closed his eyes tight before turning his head around. Slowly, he peered them open an—"H-HIEE!"

It was the same creature from the other day. Though without any body, it's face was on the floor grinning widely at Tsuna. Its' dark eyes seemed to flicker with dark amusement as it inched forward—how the heck was that even possible?!—and seemed to leave a bubbling trail of blood. 'I waited soo long for you… Don't you feel guilty booy? Because of you, I'm like this' Abruptly, the atmosphere turned cold as a furious scowl replaced the creature's face. 'You insolent brat! I'M GOING TO EAT YO—'

Suddenly, Tsuna felt himself being pulled out from the bushes. Sunlight struck his fear and surprise ridden face before closing his eyes on reflex when he landed on something warm. He tried opening his eyes but was hindered when an arm wrapped around his waist and a hand covered the said sense organs. And then, a new yet somehow familiar voice spoke.

"You again? How persistent. Begone."

'AhhhHHHH! AAAHHH! STOP! STOOOP! AhhhHHHhh!"

At the sound of the ear-deafening screech, Tsuna whimpered and absent-mindedly pressed himself to the warm thing behind him. He doesn't even care whatever or whoever he was leaning on was!

As the shriek slowly quietened, Tsuna tried evening his breathing as he looked down, eyes still pressed closed, while the hand and arm around him disappeared. He felt his knees buckle and he fell to the ground with a loud awful smack.

"Haa… Haa… Haa…"

A hand was suddenly pressed against his cheek, "You alright? You're quite a troublemaker, hu—" Surprised, Tsuna screamed, eyes shooting open and scrambling away from the touch. It was stupid, but for some reason, tears formed at he edges of his eyes.

Don't hurt me! Don't hurt me! Don't hurt me!

His vision was blurry and he couldn't see well, but Tsuna could make up a small blotch of golden in his sight. "Woah, woah! Calm down! Calm dow—" Once again, the brunet screamed when he saw the golden blotch go nearer to him.

His mind was in the state of panic and he couldn't think well. Everything seemed to be scary.

Who cares if it's so early in the morning?

Who cares if the sun was out and shining?

Even if it's like that, it doesn't mean that the monsters wouldn't come and haunt you for the rest of your lives.

There's a limit a person could take.

And now, Tsuna had enough.

"Shit, I think I'm scaring him! H-Hey Cozart! This is your charge! What the hell do you think you're doing hiding behind the porch?!"

C-Cozart…? Cozart-nii…? C-Cozart-nii...!

"What the heck! I wasn't hiding, I was looking for—Shit, Tsuna!"

Now sobbing to himself, the brunet curled up into a ball, fat droplets of tears streaming down his face, "C-Cozart-nii! C-Cozart-niiii! Uh, uhn..! Uhhn…! U-Uwaa, uwaaaa!"

Then he felt a familiar warmth surround him and—"Shh Tsuna. I'm here, I'm here. Stop crying, I'm here."

Sniffling between hiccups,Tsuna looked up through blurry eyes and found a familiar shade of red on top of a familiar face. His expression slowly morphed into a relieved slash fearful expression as he started to bawling again, "C-Cozart-nii! Cozart-niiiiii!" The brunet sobbed as he burrowed his face into the other's shirt.

"Shhh," The young teen felt the arms around him tighten and circles being rubbed around in his back. "Shh, there there Tsuna. Uh, Cozart-nii's here, everything's fine. Calm down… Shh—"

The earlier unfamiliar voice interrupted, "Hey, are you sure that's an effective way to calm someone else down?"

"Well, I don't know! I haven't done this since the last time Enma panicked. And that was last six years. SIX—"

Tsuna whimpered at the loud voice.

"Oops, sorry, sorry. Er, just calm down Tsuna-kun. Everything's fine."

A sigh, "Well, c'mon. Carry him inside, it'll be easier to pacify him there."

"Right. I'm going to have to carry you, okay Tsuna-kun?"

Once again, Tsuna whimpered inbetween his cries.

7:16 AM

"So, you feeling okay now, Tsuna?"

Blushing light red, Tsuna nodded and shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He looked up and found a face—somehow similar to him though more defined and handsome—with golden, blonde hair looking at him with a smile. The brunet bit his lip, "U-Uhm… Y-yes… Sorry for the e-earlier, I-Ieyasu-san."

The blonde chuckled, "Giotto is fine."

"G-Giotto-nii then. S-Sorry for acting l-like that,"

"Don't worry, it's alright."

No, it's not alright. Tsuna's mind screamed. How could that be alright? What happened earlier? Why did the creature disappear? Most importantly, WHY did you act like you saw it? Could… Could you also see them? I'm not alone? There's someone else like m—

"—a! Tsuna! Tsuna!"

Jumping, Tsuna cowered back at the hands on his shoulder. His whole body was shaking as he looked above him, only to see Giotto looking at him with a frown, "You were hyperventilating. See? You have goosebumps across your skin and your breathing's fast. Look, calm down. Cozart's soon to come back after fetching some stuff at his—your house. Start breathing slowly, alright?"

Following the other's words, Tsuna closed his eyes in the process. Calm down. Calm down.

"Okay, you're starting to relax. That's great. I'm going to get water for you, okay?"

Immediately, the brunet's mind protested. No, don't leave me. What if something's going to come out? Please stay, don't leave me.

"Just wait here."

No, please stay. Just stay. That's all I need. Please.

"I'll be right back."

No, please no.

Out of pure panic and instinct, Tsuna's hand shot up and grabbed the blond's wrist. At that,he felt the other tense up slightly at this before relaxing. "Tsuna? Is there something wrong?"

Please don't leave me. I don't want to be alone here. What if something appears? What if that creature appears again? I won't handle it. This is all too much. Please just stay. All I need is someone here right now. Please. Please, please, please, please—"S-Stay... I-I don't want to be alone. Please." Tsuna croaked.

A few seconds passed before a sigh sounded. Afterwards, Giotto crouched down, blue eyes somehow resigned and calming, and placed a hand on top of the brunet's head, ruffling it a bit. He shot a small smile at the other before whispering, "I won't leave. I'll stay."

At that, Tsuna heaved a breath, ignoring the shivers wrapping around him, and pressed his eyes close.

"Thank you."
