Reborn sighed in annoyance. "How long did you say again?" He asked dangerously glaring at the trembling clerk. "D-Due to the maintenance, sir, your flight will b-be cancelled u-until further n-notice." She stuttered out breathlessly. His eyes narrowed. "Until further notice? Damn it all." He growled out the last sentence, slamming his clenched fist on the desk, effectively making the clerk jump. He looked at her one last time before making a 'Che' and walking away as if nothing happened. The clerk practically fainted out of her chair.
Reborn stalked towards the door, his scowl looking permanent. Fate is not on my side today, he thought bitterly. He didn't notice he was outside until he heard the chirping of the birds. Putting his arm up to shield his eyes from the sudden brightness, he gazed longingly at the sky. Just wait, mio stupido studente. (my stupid student)

Tsuna's head bobbed up and down before shooting back up immediately. Stay awake idiot. Remember what Reborn always said? Sleep is for the weak, the young Decimo thought tiredly. He straightens his posture, grabbing the paper that had a little bit of drool on it from his previous nap. He gave out a soft sigh. When will they be back? I miss them so much... A pain blossomed in his heart. He gripped the outside of shirt where his heart is and bit his lip slightly.
It's been five weeks since their last encounter. Ever since then, he ordered Victor to gather all sorts of books about financial management and leadership skills. He built himself quite the library next door. But during those days, he still hasn't come out of his office. Or eaten for that matter. Every day, Victor leaves him meals outside the door, even though he told him not to. Victor can be very persistent when he wants to be. And his guardians can be quite destructive when they want to too. Tsuna sighed for what seemed to be the hundredth time that day. He pulled himself out of his dwelling to go back to his work. Over the past few weeks, there has been a spike in robberies here in the crime world. Witnesses say that it was the classic 'robbing the bank' cliche. Men appear in black suits with masks on, telling everyone to lay down while they get the money. However, Tsuna's hyper intuition was saying something else. No, from the pictures of the crime scene that his CEDEF provided him with, there was a lead that someone bigger, someone behind the shadows did this on purpose. But for what? Tsuna rubbed his eyes before focusing on the picture of one of the walls in the bank.
He could figure out the numerals very easily but it was the arrow with the line through it that troubled him the most.
What could this mean? He thought. Why would a simple bank robbery criminal leave this in his wake? Dino handed this case to him, a grimace on his features when he said that he should really look at it. Does that mean Dino knows what this all means? 81 8 followed by 1000 6 7. Hmm.... The young Decimo picked up his laptop, scanning the picture through the scanner. It popped up on his screen, he zoomed in on the mystery symbol. Cutting it off from the rest of the picture, he ran it through Vongola's databases and briefly thanked the CEDEF for creating such database.
The computer made a ding before he peered at the open window.
