It has been two days since the attack but the enemy's troops just keep coming in. The place is burned, coated in blood yet the sun still shown ridiculously high in the sky.

Lampo walked around the charred land, inspecting the area for more lurking enemies. Primo and G had left the field temporarily, leaving the others to continue protecting the family.

As his eyes trailed along the different footpaths, a small, odd, white paper that contrasted with the grey ground stood out. Curious, he ran to pick it up, dusting away all the dirty particles that was clinging onto it. He glanced through the words printed on it.

At that moment, he gasped in horror and his eyes widened in shock. His mouth was left agape and he stood alone stiffly, his hands shaking. Asari, who noticed the odd movements of the teen, quickly dashed over. "Lampo, what's wrong?"

Said teen lifted his hand and handed the other the paper, absent-minded. The man took it and processed the information in his hand. His frown marred on the face almost immediately and his fingers crumpled the paper in anger.

Dear Vongola,

I have Sawada Tsunahime and Gokudera Hayano in my hands. If you want them to return alive, stay where you are and surrender. Then will we release them both.

Best regards,
Pierro Lorro

Asari's hand gripped onto the hilt of his sword, turning his knuckles white. Lampo began to cower, chanting incoherently along the lines of: "They've been kidnapped! What do we do?"

Just then, a member of the family appeared. Slightly bruised here and there but still standing. "Asari-dono, we've taken down the enemies on the left wing!" Said man turned to him and replaced the frown with a false smile. "Good job!"

Just as the guy was about to salute him and return to his position, Asari lightly tapped on his shoulder, startling the poor guy. He thought he was going to get punished.

Instead, the Vongola rain handed him a piece of paper with stern eyes. He looked at him questioningly. "Pass this to Giotto please. They are last seen in the mansion." The guy could see Asari's grim expression and mentioned nothing before he took off to the mansion.

Asari pats Lampo's shoulder, assuring the teen that nothing will happen to the two ladies they all have grown fond of.

With Tsuna and Hayano

A black cloth was pulled over both of their eyes tightly, blocking them from seeing any light. Their lips were sealed with adhesive tapes, plastered tightly onto their faces.

Both of them had no idea what was going on, using their other senses to have a general idea of where they were.

At first, the air was damp, feeling wet. It was very dark behind the blindfolds, noting to them that they were probably underground. There was occasional lights here and there but it was not there the whole time. After a few minutes, a cool breeze brushed past them and a slightly more intense light was casted.

Suddenly, they entered something and the doors were slammed shut. The two ladies with thrown onto the floor without any care and soon, the thing they are in began to move.

Hayano felt like twitching, feeling all the itchiness of the healing cuts and bruises that littered her body. It was uncomfortable and disgusting to her palette. She squirmed a little to get an idea of what was supporting her. Apparently, it is just the cold hard metal underneath. The tapes covering her lips were torn away, letting her take in huge gulps of oxygen.
