[...This place was totally not his bedroom. Tsuna was pretty sure waking up in a place that was not his bedroom was probably a bad sign. Waking up in a place that wasn't his bedroom without Reborn doing something like, oh, saying it was some kind of weird training exercise or something.

Feeling sort of suspicious about the whole thing, Tsuna's going to stick his head out into the hallway and try to sneak out. This... this place is weird. He's going to look around him at the nameplates on some of the doors.

...And that's when he sees it.

Rokudo Mukuro.

...Oh crap.

Yeah, Tsuna's going to try to slink into his room, but we all know his luck is worse than letting him actually get there undisturbed.

Interrupt him. Please.]

...Gokudera-kun, do you even know how to use a box weapon...?

[andsuddenlydynamite]

Of course boss!

[He lights his Vongola ring and inserts it into the box revealing the weapon on his arm. However he lacks the rest of the Systema C.A.I. This is all he knows]

See?! Boss! You gotta tell me how to combine it with my ring!

[notathunnusfish.livejournal.com]

...Gokudera-kun, if I said "Systema C.A.I.", would you know what I'm talking about? [He's pretty sure he's nailed down 'when'.]

[andsuddenlydynamite]

[He shakes his head no]

I was taken here after Yamamoto and I fought Gamma...

[notathunnusfish.livejournal.com]

[Well that explains a lot.] After that, all of us trained really hard to try and get ready for the attack. You ended up with something called the Systema C.A.I. I-- you don't really have to worry too much, I mean, I think the fact that I remember all of that is a good sign, right, Gokudera-kun?

[andsuddenlydynamite]

[Gokudera doesn't like how it's being implied he can't get stronger... this place is dangerous! If he can't effectively protect his boss then what is he good for?!]

Well, how did I get it? Just by training?! Then I should be able to get it now right!?

[notathunnusfish.livejournal.com]

Uh, it's-- a lot more complicated than that. I didn't really get to see much of what you were doing because I was busy training, too. [8( He can just protect you instead.] I think it had more than one box weapon to it- you came home wearing a lot more rings than when you left, and since we couldn't technically take the box weapons back they came back with us as rings.

[andsuddenlydynamite]

[And Gokudera just seems to visibly sink for a moment]

So... there's no way for me to get to the next level without those rings and boxes?

[notathunnusfish.livejournal.com]

I don't know. There could be, but it wouldn't be the same way that things happened back home.

[andsuddenlydynamite]

[So he was saying it was hopeless... but he at least had to try...]

But... I can still try. It's my job to protect you! I can't just sit around and do nothing! I'll get stronger, Boss!

[notathunnusfish.livejournal.com]

[He is not. 8(]

Just don't overdo it? I mean if you overdo it, what if you get hurt and then something happens?

[andsuddenlydynamite]

Don't worry boss! I'll be alright! I promised I wouldn't die! So we can go see the fireworks again, and have snowball fights! Remember?!

[...He's going to overdo it. Just so you know Tsuna.]
