The Day of the Sky Battle

"200km." was the first thing Sora said to Kakeru, earning a smack to the head by Dino. "Is that bad?" Sora asked, completely normal like the bump on his head was something stupidly trivial.

"Of course! If Bakakeru is dead, Iemitsu won't name Tsuna the leader either!" Dino yelled.

"Why?" Sora wondered innocently.

"He favors Kakeru too much, he'd make Xanxus the boss instead!" Dino explained, yelling.

{27: Dino, you suck as a straight man.}

"Well sorry!" Dino cried.

-----

"Ahh~ That was an awesome workout!" Sky stretched his body, catching his breath and cooling down, as if he'd had the best time of his life.

"Fo...r...y..ou..." Kakeru panted, dead, barely choking out words.

"So, what's the plan?" Sora asked, ignoring Kakeru.

"We'll have Bakakeru not go to the Cloud Ring Battle today and have him master Hyper Dying Will Mode for today and tomorrow." Reborn said.

"Okay then...Bakakeru, wanna try sparring with me?" Sky asked. "Ah, not me. Sora asked that."

"Huh?"

-----

Dino walked and sat beside 27. Reborn was by the side, listening in on what would be a silent conversation. "Hey 27, doesn't Sora seemed like he's overworking himself today?"

27 sighed. About time someone noticed. He touched the black cloth he wrapped around his neck (in place of a bandage so Bakakeru won't get suspicious) and sighed again. He dug out his phone.

{27: Rokudou Mukuro's message.}

"Oh, the one from yesterday? The one Chrome said?" Dino questioned. 27 nodded.

{27: Red, black, white, orange. Orange is Sora.}

"Is that because it's the color of his eyes?" Dino asked.

{27: Who knows? Black is probably Sky.}

"Who is Sky in the first place?" Dino finally asked.

{27: Something like a split personality? I don't understand him completely myself.}

"Even though you're the world's best hacker?" Dino sweatdropped.

{27: This information isn't available anywhere, and I've lost my chance to find out personally.}

"Lost your chance?" Now this was something Dino was interested in. Something even the world's best hacker doesn't know? Wow.

{27: Let's just say the whole experimental lab was destroyed with every person and prisoner except himself and a few others were mutated.}

"Experimental lab? Mutated?" this was getting more and more complicated.

{27: Let's just leave that as a mystery. Anyway, Cielo is the same as Sora, with a split personality sort of thing. One is called Ten. He's white. And a brocon idiot.}

"The one Sora calls 'Nii-nii'?"

{27: Yep. And another one is Oozora. Which is Red. Cielo's full name is Oozora Ten.}

"Oozora Ten...and Sky Sora? How are they related?" Dino asked.

{27: Well, they used to be one. Just Cielo...}

"Huh?"

{27: Ignore that. I'll need cash for more information. So 'Red and White has gone too proud, Icarus went too close to the Sun'.}

"Isn't Icarus from a greek myth?" Dino remembered.

{27: Yep. He and his father, uh, Daedalus? made wings out of feathers and wax, and sought to fly out of prison. But Icarus ignored his father's warning, and flew too close to the Sun, causing the wax to melt, and he fell to the sea.}

"What does that have to do with this?" Dino questioned. He didn't get a single thing.

{27: Oozora Ten is in the Vendicare. He's roaming through the database as we speak.}

"Isn't that risky?" Dino said.

{27: You're really slow on the uptake, aren't you?}

"Shut it." Dino grumbled.

{27: They were caught.}

{27: The Vindice realized he was in Vendicare to find information. Who knows what they'll do to him now.}

"B-But, what about Sora...?"

{27: He might seem like a cold brother tired of a brocon sometimes, but in reality, he's more worried about Ten than Ten is worried about him. So he's desperately trying to take his mind out of it.}

"...but if he hurts Kakeru, there'll be no point."

{27: For both him and Ten. Ten never liked killing. So Sora isn't going to kill Kakeru.}

-----

"Bakakeru, do you expect to win against Xanxus like this? Do it with your dying will already!" Sora's yell cut into their conversation.

"Shut up! Spartan!" Kakeru whined. Seriously, this bleached-haired brat was pissing him off.

"If I'm a Spartan, 27 is Hades! So buck up and do it!" Sora yelled.

Kakeru's scream made all the birds in the forest fly away.

-----

"RINGBRING RISE AND SHINE MOTHERFUCKER!" Kakeru literally jumped to the sky at the sudden explosion of sound. He calmed down slightly and realized it was just an albino, Sora.

Sora was wearing a black, long sleeved parka, and long, dark jeans. "Today's the day! We had you master Hyper Dying Will Mode yesterday, so we'll need you to be able to use Zero Point Breakthrough today!" he said.

"That freaking aside, what was with the wake up call? That was worse than Reborn!" Kakeru yelled back.

"I was imitating an alarm clock." Sora replied.

"Alarm clocks do NOT sound like that!" Kakeru screamed.

"Oh really?" Sora asked innocently, smirking.

"Have some common sense, kid!" Kakeru gave a middle finger.

"Don't wanna hear that from you. And if you're so loud, you'd wake up all the animals in the forest." Sora dismissed it.

"Wait, what-why am I not at home?" Kakeru finally realized he wasn't sleeping on a bed. He was in the middle of the jungle, bruises all over his body, mud all over his clothes and burns all over the fabric.

"Well, " Sora started, a sickly sweet smile on his face, "You fell dead asleep after having a spar with 27 in your HWDM yesterday and no one wanted to bring you home so this is where you were left for the whole night."

"WHAT?"

"Anyway, don't change the subject. 200km on the double! Now!" Sora ordered.

-----

27 was jumping from roof to roof, coming back from a mission. It was 11pm, and he was about to head for the school when he was stopped by something. [Thick mist flames...Rokudou?]

Chrome appeared in front of him. 27 just stared. "I'm sorry...but there is another message from Mukuro-sama...no, Ten." she mumbled nervously, catching her breath. "It was supposed to be for Cielo, but I can't find him...and it's almost past 11pm."

27 titled his head in curiosity. "I was told to relay this message at 11pm sharp." Chrome explained. 27 kept quiet, telling her to go on.

"Turn his name around, what happens a century later? The corrupted sky will be overpowered, and our worst fears will happen." she quoted.

-----

Tsuna thought about it as he continued on his way to Namimori. It was nighttime, so he took off his mask and placed it in his pocket, taking off his hood, then landing on the ground in front of the wall. He jumped over the wall and landed in a bush, in which he took off his hood and hid it in there.

He walked out normally, holding his laptop.

{27: Sora isn't here yet?}

{Bel: Not yet~}

{27: Hey, can you decipher 'turn his name around, what happens a century later'?}

It was silent for a while.

{27: It's fine if you don't understand.}

{Bel: What's this about?}

{27: Rokudou Mukuro gave me a message. In riddle form.}

{Bel: To start off, who is 'his'?}

{27: ...The message was for Sora (空), so turning Sora's name around...is impossible, isn't it? You can't actually turn 'Cielo' around either.}

{Bel: The message was for Sora? Then isn't it obvious?}

{27: ?}

{Bel: It's YOUR name that's supposed to be turned around.}

{27: ...}

{Bel: :3}

{27: That's great help, thanks.}

Tsuna thought. Turning 27 around will be 72. What will happen a century later? A century is a hundred years, so what if he multiplied it? 7200, seven thousand two hundred. What does 7200 mean?

Thinking back, why was Chrome told to relay the message at 11 sharp? Was there a reason? His thoughts were interrupted by a large hand grasping him upward.

Kakeru.

"Damn, you Dame-Tsuna! What're you acting like you're so smart about? Ignoring me by pretending to think? A hundred years too early!" Kakeru pinned him to the wall hard before Dino grabbed his arm with him whip. Kakeru 'tch'ed and cursed out loud before walking away.

Tsuna coughed a few times. [Damn the bastard...] he grumbled in his mind.

"I don't have any fucking TIME to deal with you anymore!" Kakeru yelled out loud.

[Then don't!] Tsuna yelled in his mind. Then, something flashed in his mind. [...Time?]

It all started piecing together.

7200, was probably a time. Most probably, seconds.

7200 seconds is 120 minutes, 120 minutes is...

2 hours.

"Turn his name around, what happens a century later? The corrupted sky will be overpowered, and our worst fears will happen."

At 1am, something will happen.
