Night and Reborn was sitting on the comfortable armchair, legs on the top of the table and still petting his Leon. From afar Chiba-keiji and Sato-keiji were keeping him watch, gun ready anytime in case he done something because from Megure-keibu he shot Yusaku to take his attention and the evidence were totally there but when they made an inspection, they didn't found his gun nor id and even mobile phone. He carried nothing other than the evidence he had brought for them and his pet chameleon named Leon.

It's been an hour ever since the conversation with them ended and they decide to scan the fingerprint of the fake serial killer and the real kudo Shinichi. Yusaku at that time wanted to ask more question but Reborn told him he will speak more ones they finished the inspection. Hattori Heiji insist of having a copy, giving it to someone he knew to see if the papers were true. Of course Superintendent Heizo refused but Heiji insist until his father complied with a promise of never let anyone know especially to the people which he promised. Hakuba Suguru and Nakamori-keibu decide to went back to Ekoda.

Two Keiji's kept their eye on Reborn which the young man didn't mind, ignoring their presence when he felt a vibration to his chest. He took the vibrating item in the secret compartment that they failed to see and put it to his ears. Sato narrowed his eyes while Chiba's eyes widen for a bit to see a small communicator with him.

"Com'è?" (How is it?) Reborn asked in his mother language, Italian. Reborn saw the Keiji's raised eyebrow in confusion, he snickered mentally, totally amused to fool the police around and really it would become a bad habit if he kept this up.

"Reborn si può credere? Non sono buono a tutti! Furia di loro rami non ha aiutato il mio carattere. Tch, mi vogliono distruggere di più. Reborn voglio rampage la casa base." (Reborn can you believe it? They're not good at all! Rampaging to their branches didn't help my temper. Tch, I want to destroy more. Reborn I want to rampage the home base.) It was Checker, very irritated.

Two days ago when he heard the news about Shin, he knew something like that can never be avoided but still pissed him off. Reborn and Checker decide to put their irritation to the branches of Gatti Famiglia's, killing the men, scientist and everything. For the lab rat children, most were dead and the rest were beyond save and so finishing the enemies on sight, they brought the children to the nearest hospital without being seen because they knew Shin would want that, both dead and alive. Even though they finished the branch they massacred, it still not enough.

Reborn sigh, "Checker che avrebbe il lavoro di polizia, far loro avere loro." (Checker that would be the police job, let them have them.) He heard Checker sigh, "Questo fa schifo." (This sucks.)

"Essere d'accordo." (Agree.) Reborn said while huffing. "Avete sentito parlate di Shin?" (Have you heard about Shin?)

"Si, ora che ci penso che dovrei fargli visita." (Yes, now that I think about it I should visit him.) He humed happily. Reborn could only shook his head, just like him. "Oh, a proposito Reborn ho sentito è andato al quartier generale della polizia, che sicuramente è una sorpresa, ma non preoccupato. Basta non giocare così tanto come Mysteria perché in realtà voi due siete non solo maestro e apprendista, ma anche come madre e figlio. Non copiare il suo bene." (Oh by the way Reborn I heard you went to the police HQ, that sure is a surprise but not worried. Just don't play so much like Mysteria because really you two are not only master and apprentice but also like mother and son. Don't copy her okay.)

"Lei parla come se lei è una cattiva influenza. Dovrei dire sensei di questo?" (You speak as if she's a bad influence. Should I tell sensei about this?) Reborn teased. He knew how horrible his face had become.

"Re-Reborn sto scherzando per favore! Non dirle, in realtà sto solo scherzando. L'ho detto perché è tua madre capire voi due non agire a volte come madre e figlio in modo davvero sto solo scherzando!" (Re-Reborn I'm joking please! Don't tell her, really I'm just joking. I said it because she's your mother figure you two do act sometimes like mother and son so REALLY I'm just JOKING!) Checker begged. Reborn kept a smirk, not answering. He heard his panic, "NON DILLE REBORN!" (DON'T TELL HER REBORN!)

Now that made Reborn chuckle, "Bene non lo farò." (Fine I won't.)

He heard Checker sigh in relief, "Grazie." (Thanks.) They were silence for a moment before Checker spoke ones again in gentle tone, "Reborn nel caso qualcosa accade..." (Reborn in case something happen...)

Reborn sigh, knowing his concern. "Lo so... grazie." (I know... Thanks.)

Their conversation stopped and peek at the detectives who's eyes still on him, he could tell how much they're confuse to their conversation because none of them knew italian. 'Looks like they had a long way to go if they wish to protect their country from mafia.' He smirked in contentment and leaned more to relax himself.

Agasa's home, Heiji arrived with the copy of the experiment.

"Neesan are ya here?" Heiji shouted as he looked around to find a child scientist. Haibara glared the Osakan Detective, "Ever heard knocking?"

Heiji scratched his head in embarrassment before he remembered the reason he came here. He approached Haibara and gave the papers. The child in actual adult took the papers and read them. She narrowed her eyes as she study them. This paper was totally detailed, telling the hypothesis to its experimental stage and success in each path like this person was the true mastermind from the experiment. They were even diagram about the success rate, it kind of creep her. Whoever this person was, she wanted to meet this person, badly.

"Do ya understand?" Heiji asked. Haibara glance to the Osakan Detective, it seems even he's smart he can't comprehend too much about science. Scientist like her could understand them fully. "Almost what I found so far was exact as this paper, the only difference was this person finished it faster than expected."

Heiji awe to that, "For real?"

Haibara nodded before turning to the last which says, How can you discern between experimental and real?

There's no mistake, this is a challenge from the person who wrote this. This made Haibara smirk, she accept the challenge.

"I'll be heading my room. Agasa-hakase should be returning soon." Haibara said before walking away with paper in hand.

Heiji could only watch him leave before grinned, "I knew she's up for it."

Somewhere in the hidden place, someone was giving a current report to all occupant. The status, the lost and the just coming news about their three branch research place and five branch of connection were destroyed. Summarizing them, they're on the pinch.

The boss was more than irritated, how could this happen? THEY, ONE OF THE DEEP MAFIA, FALL SO EASILY! He knew the fact some famiglia in Japan were totally looking down upon them and making measurement not to get involve, that would mean no help will come. Some allies broke up in danger of getting involved. This is totally unacceptable!

All officials were in the room, except their head scientist Dr. Martino who's been arrested two days ago and their top assassin, the serial killer who knows where.

Pietro was gripping his fist, so angry about the fact they're loosing against those three, ONLY THREE AND THEY'RE ON THE TIGHT SPOT!

"Last report, I heard the young man named Reborn was in the police HQ to give them assistance." Their reporter reported.

The cool man questioned this, "That man was captured or volunteered?"

"Volunteered Sir, we have no idea what's he planning to do." Their reporter answered. This made the cool man think even more, not knowing what they're planning next.

The boss sigh to calm himself but wrath still evident to his eyes, "Is that lab rat dead?"

"From the fact that young man went give assistance to the police, it's positive that Kudo Shinichi is still alive." The cool man answered, "I heard they had a companion doctor and Kaitou Kid just got in time to save him."

The boss slam his fist on the table, he glared Pietro. "So you failed to kill him nine years ago. Do you know that BECAUSE OF YOU THAT WE'RE IN THIS SITUATION!?"

Pietro paled and looked down, "I'm very sorry Boss, please kill me."

The cool man gave a thought, "Now I could see why they're interfering with us." They all turned to him who continued, "The sole reason why they wanted us down, its about our killer who took his identity. I don't know why they waited for five years but we know one thing, to keep his safety we need to fall down."

The boss twitch, "Damn it..." He glared, "That woman?"

"I finally found her Boss, her current location is in Silcy Italy." The cool man answered as he took something from his bag and showed three pictures of the woman five years ago.

The first picture was the side photo of a woman in a bartender sit, drinking red wine alone and totally in peace. The second one was her walking on the street with a blond woman, the blond was speaking while her was silent and doesn't bother facing her as she talk. The last photo was her facing them with a smirk, like she knew she's being tailed and didn't bother doing anything, she's mocking them that's for sure.

"I ordered our men to kept our eye on her, they're still giving me daily report." The cool man ended.

One of them asked, "Did you never ordered to kill her?"

"That would be a foolish action knowing the fact she actually knew we're watching her and mocking us." The cool man answered, "Although I ordered some of them to kill the poeple she assochiate, none of them had returned. I could only conclude they're not easy as her to be killed."

"Anything else?" The boss questioned as he tap his finger on the table.

"All we know is that they run a tavern for commoners, they served and perform for the people to enjoy. For their names, we found that woman was named Mysteria Night. Other than that commoners say that she's good in communication, very smart and mysterious. We also found she had a partner named Checker but unfortunately we don't know his location."

"The man named Reborn?" Pietro questioned. The cool man stayed silence for a moment before informing them, "We discovered she had an apprentice, that apprentice is none other named Reborn."

They heard another smash on the table, seeing the boss they saw the crack. "I see, she send her apprentice instead... she's making me even more angry."

Suddenly they heard a phone ring, the cool man took his phone to see the ID caller. It's one of his men in Italy, he answered. "What is it?"

A chuckle, not his men but someone else, a woman. "Here I'm letting you know about me but had your men ever occured I could strike anytime I want? Pity they're too weak, it wasn't even enough to warm me up."

This widen his eyes, could this person be... no doubt, the woman named Mysteria Night.

"Shocked hearing my voice? Fausto Li Greci." It shocked him even more, 'She knew my name!?'

"Hoy what's-" Pietro was stopped by Fausto's silent sign before putting his phone to loud speaker.

"What do you want?" Fausto questioned in good composure, it seems he knew how to control emotions and never let anyone especially his enemies knew what he's thinking. Another chuckle and answered, "To give my regard of couse. After all your coming down fall is spreading, even in Italy."

They narrowed their eyes, they immediately knew the person who's speaking was the woman they're discussing. She continued.

"How funny don't you think?" It's way too obvious, she's mocking them. The boss stood from his sit, took the phone and spoke. "Are you sure of keeping yourself away and letting your apprentice do what he wanted?" He said, clearly the threat saying we will kill her apprentice and deliver his head to prove her to never underestimate them again.

Instead of getting worried, she laugh. "That's hilarious! I can't wait to see it."

Normal people would say she's insane but in the dark world, that would mean they had high confidence that would be impossible.

"Gatti boss, Enzo Gatti." She called in high confidence, "Let me give you a very good warning." That narrowed his eyes while the rest became tense. She continued, "Expect the unexpected."

With that the called ended. No one spoke a word, processing the fact that woman could possibly part of the famous assassins named Devas.

"Fausto exlplain." The boss ordered. Fausto thought deeply before responding, "If ever we're actually against one of the Devas, we would need more than preparation than we usually do."

The boss gripped his hand before turning to everyone, "Their next move will sure come to our base... prepare everything, leave none alive."

"Yes boss."

Somewhere, the serial killer was slashing his blade in thin air, training his skill as flashback kept bothering his concentration. That man, Reborn overpowered them so easily and he hate the fact he's not strong enough to kill him.

"Damn it!" Multiple blade appeared surrounded by violet flame and all dashed forward to hit a single target that caused mass destruction. The killer was huffing but not enough, his power, strength and skill wasn't enough to kill him. "Tch, that guy is interesting... at the same time... terrifying."

He stood up straightly and walked to where his few things rested. He took a bottle of water and drink it before using the rest to wet his hair. Feeling a slight refreshment, he looked down to think. Below he saw a small glimpse of his reflection, a face that truly doesn't belong to him.

He remembered the real owner who was shot by Fausto, after he left with Kid, Reborn showed them the demon that they must never anger. The fact that he could form a bullet just from his flame and use it against them change the whole situation. At first he really thought that he uses dying will bullets to strengthen himself but wasn't, he's actually holding back his true power against them.

The thought that there's actually a way to make to young man serious made him smirked, he wanted to kill him badly. It's no longer matter whenever its for the Gatti-famiglia, it's all for himself. Ever since he became an assassin, he had sworn to himself he would become the strongest who will never fear anyone and kill those in the way. He accepted the role as a serial killer to put some fun because no one had ever defeated him, now meeting someone stronger than his own made his blood boil in excitement.

'I had always dream of meeting the Devas, a very famous, mysterious and well known group of assassins. The group where no one knew their identities and whereabouts, a fine opponents for someone like me. Now i had met one, the youngest member, Ragnarok.'

The image of Reborn imprinted to his mind, how excited he is to put his full strength on the test against one of the famous Devas.

'Your life shall be mine, Ragnarok!'

Somewhere apartment, Checker came in to see both Kaito and Shin talking to each other.

"I see you are well Shin." Checker said softly, really glad that he's indeed alive and well. Shin smiled and nodded, "Checker I hope I didn't made you worry."

"Unfortunately you did but seeing you are fine made me glad." Checker said as he approached him and sit on the empty sit. He turned to Kaito and bowed his head, "I'm thankful for keeping him alive Kuroba Kaito, I heard what you had done from Reborn and Rick, I give my most sincere gratitude."

Kaito immediately swayed his hands in front of him, kind of embarrassed. "Ple-please don't be! I-I wanted to keep Shin-chan safe more than ever and I love him so I-I... just please stop."

Shin can't help but chuckle but never hid the fact his happiness. Checker faced him and smiled, "You're kind of funny." He commented, "I'm really glad you had met Shin and decide to stay with him. I already accepted your relationship but because of what you had done, I will be more supportive for both of you."

Kaito can't help but scratch his head, still embarrassed. "Tha-thank you Checker."

Checker nodded, accepting his gratitude. "To return them looks like I will use my free time to gather information about the mafia syndicate your chasing to put to justice. With addition I'll find the location of this jewel Pandora for you." Kaito blinked before turning to him. Shin questioned, "Does that mean that Reborn won't be needing any clarification from you."

"Seems that way, after all you already cornered them." Checker said before standing up, "You wanted the basic information correct?"

Shin nodded, "I want to be the one to take them down on my own but without proper seeing the crime scene nor any information about them I will need your help."

"Very well Shin but if ever I found they're part of the deep which I highly doubt it," they will not only face you but us.

Shin nodded, knowing the fact they cared for his wellbeing ever since they found him.

"Thank you."

Checker smiled before taking his leave. When he's gone, Kaito faced his lover.

"Will he be... ahh never mind, after witnessing such far dangerous syndicate than them he'll be..." Shin chuckled to his worriness with mix of joy. After all someone very capable of learning the people who killed his father would actually help him... it made him really happy. "Nothing to worry Kaito, everything will be alright and as Checker said, the possibility for them to be part of the deep mafia is negative ninety-five percent."

That made Kaito laugh, founding it true after facing the man named Snake and Spider surely they're not part of the deep ones.

"Well let's put my dad's case on the side and focus on the present problem okay." Kaito said.

Shin nodded in agreement before the turning to his tablet computer and both reviewed the possibilities movements they would do.

"As Checker had told us, the Gatti-famiglia are cornered. If we take the base, everything is over." Shin said in seriousness on the case. Kaito nodded, serious as well. "Since all the branches are gone thanks to Oniisan and Checker's rampage that became far easier for us. I highly doubt they would give up so easily."

"Yes, especially Enzo Gatti the boss of Gatti famiglia." Shin gave a serious thought, "Fifty of their dying will user were taken by the police after Reborn took their rings and destroyed them to avoid being used again."

"All that left is that guy name Pietro, the serial killer we have no idea who he is and surely the boss could use flame as well."

Shin nodded in agreement, "We aren't even sure how many more flame user do they have. Will they have the most dying will user in the famiglia like Vongola or lesser like Giglio Nero."

"Vongola? Isn't that the most successful and well known company world wide? Are you saying that they're actually..."

"Hard to believe but yes they are and very known as the most powerful mafia in the whole world. Small famiglias would have to think thrice before taking action. The current boss was the 9th boss, Timoteo di Vongola. Then there's a Giglio Nero, a very small and hidden famiglia. The current boss is a woman named Luce Giglio Nero. I never met either of them but Mysteria used them as an example to explain me the difference within the deep mafia."

"I see... she never care if anyone know does she."

"For her it's not her business... well back to the real topic. The only way for us to know the number of their flame user is for us to fight them head on."

"Which in your current state you cannot."

"Yeah and Reborn would surely refuse the method of testing them ourselves. All we can so is prepare for the coming worst." Kaito nodded in agreement.

'No one other than Oniisan and Shin-chan can fight against them. I could with the help of dying will bullet...' Kaito voiced his question, "How about dying will bullet Shin-chan? We can lend the police."

"Reborn will surely refuse. If they learn about dying will flame their lives would be in grave danger especially to the Vindice." Shin answered.

"Vindice... ah you mean the ones who hold the law of the dark world and the ones who keep the Omerta as strong as possible." Kaito mumble, learning them from Reborn. "So in the end it would only ended up to us to secure their safety."

"Unfortunately yes... if they wish to less the casualty, only the best fighter could join this war." Shin finalize, seeing there's no more better strategy than head on with the best fighters of each sides. "For that I think we could leave that to Reborn."

Kaito can't deny that, Reborn is smart like Shin and the two synchronize really well because they knew what they should do in every situation. Well he too as well because he's Kaitou Kid but not much good as them when dealing with deep mafia, being with them made him learn more.

"For some reason I see the point for him heading to the police HQ alone." Kid commented. Shin could only laugh, realizing true.

Three days in the Police HQ, the result arrived. All gathered in the room including Reborn who's afar from the rest but still being watch by almost all.

"We got the result." Shiratori-keiji informed everyone on the room. Yusaku was tense but never showed it. More than anyone, he wish to know the truth about his son. Shiratori observed every person in the room to see they're waiting for his announcement. No longer wanted them to wait, he announced the result. "We found that the serial killer we had known as Kudo Shinichi is a fake."

Those who were not informed about what happened between Kudo Yusaku, Hattori Heiji, Hakuba Suguru and Kaitou Kid were shocked to hear it. Shiratori-keiji elaborated.

"According to study they found the mix of DNA between two people, it was thanks to Hattori Heiji that we found the key way to distinguish their method." At that Heiji grinned. Shiratori-keiji continued, "The fingerprint that been brought to us by Reborn had helped us determine the real identity who had taken the identity of Kudo Shinichi."

An image was shown to everyone on the screen. It was a young man with blond hair and amethyst eyes, from his appearance he's like an innocent person and a foreigner.

"His name is Gero Voss, a german twenty-five years old. From Germany, he was reported missing twelve years ago after they found a massacre in the family of Voss. No one survived except him who's missing. At first he was concluded kidnapped so the police had investigate where the kidnappers had taken him until he's soon been announced as the culprit of the death of his own family."

"What?" Misao Yamamura the inspector of Gumma police district can't help but gasp. Kansuke Yamato the inspector of Nagano Police district narrowed his eyes from such fact.

"It was concluded due to the fact he was seen in the act after murdering the son of the Prime Minister. He was unfortunately escaped and currently the most wanted. It didn't end there, more were killed in his hand in different countries: France, Egypt, China, Spain, Australia... he was seen last in Italy."

"Hmm... that makes sense." They turned to Reborn who seem to knew something. Knowing they wanted to know more, he crossed his arms and explained. "Back in Italy there's a mass murder that made almost everyone restless. Most were killed are killer-for-hire. The authorities can't help but question his action until now."

"Does that implies to other country as well?" Jodie Starling female member of FBI asked. Reborn shrug, "Who knows, he never interest me so I never make a time to investigate."

His answer was hard to sink for most people, who would not interest and worry after learning such fact?

"And Shin's blood?" Reborn questioned Shiratori-keiji, obviously telling that topic is over.

Shiratori-keiji flinched before turning back to his paper. "We-we also tested his blood and fingerprint. Everything matches, the serial killer and Kudo Shinichi are whole different people."

"For his appearance to be looked exactly like him, he must had undergo plastic surgery." Akai Shuichi concluded after processing the information and the situation. "He had done it here in Japan."

"He must have after the Gatti Organization found him." Reborn finished, mentally added. 'The offer is quite obvious, learn the existence of Deathparation Flame in exchange of joining and putting your whole loyalty to the famiglia.'

James Black eyed the young man before voicing out his question, "Reborn will you answer my questions?" The young man glanced him as he pull down his fedora. Leon on the top of his hat, watching the whole scene. Sensing no objection, he began. "How did you get involve?"

Reborn studied the man, 'How clever, waiting for the right time to question that.' He glance at Kudo Yusaku who's waiting for answer. For his sake, he answered his question. "It all began nine years ago, someone close to me found the dying child in mids of isolation. Sensing something about the child, this person took the child and did what the person could to save him, this person even took the child in Italy to continue the treatment. It took three months before this child finally opened his eyes and another month of recovery..."

Reborn became silence after that before facing Kudo Yusaku who's waiting for him to continue. Reborn approached the novelist as Sato-keiji and Chiba-keiji prepare their gun in case he did something which Reborn didn't really care and continue his speaking as he approach him.

"Upon the months of treatment we investigated the child's identity whom we soon found his name is Kudo Shinichi and a victim of an experimental activity. We made a debate whenever to interfere to their affair or not but decided to wait until the child woke up. The long waited and finally he woke up... with trauma and something more."

Reborn stopped infront of Kudo Yusaku who's still prossessing every information he had given and waiting for him to finish. He knew that surely his son had experienced trauma, his son wasn't invisible to escape such thing. Still there's something more... something more happened to his son and he wanted to know how much they had done to his son, how much sin they had done other than experimenting his son and many other children who died miserably, how much murder they had done that summarizing them in the police vocabulary, they are the most inhuman people that imprisonment will never be enough to pay for their sins.

Reborn took a deep breath and as he carefully took his hat to keep Leon there and faced the novelist eye to eye.

"He's suffering... from amnesia."

His word was hard to sink, especially to the father who can't help but widen his eyes in disbelief. He heard this from Heiji and Hakuba after Reborn given them samples of their fingerprint and blood, he doesn't want to believe it but hearing it from this man was... hard to sink... hard to believe.

"More precisely, almost permanent amnesia." Reborn explained, "The probability of him remembering is almost negative to zero. Even so, your son wanted to learn about his past no matter how hard and traumatize it may be. For that reason... we came here to Japan five months ago, to help him remember."

"Five months ago? So that's how it started?" Hakuba mumble but it seems not everyone heard him. They were all focus to the young man who continued.

"He could have meet you... if Gero didn't took his identity and use that identity to be known as a serial killer. Fearing his safety I had told him not to show himself no matter what, Shin is very stobborn as he wanted to learn more of himself and he can't rest well not knowing who he actually is even though he knew the fact there's a painful memories within the memories he wanted to pursue but he didn't care, saying its better to know his own existence than know nothing. Knowing I cannot change his mind, we made a decision... to put them down for his sake."

Yusaku looked down, still can't believe the fact his son currently facing. He doesn't remembrer, he doesn't remember him as his father, Yukiko his mother and everyone elses.

"Shin knew you are his father... not from memories but from information about him." Reborn said as if he actually read his mind. "For that reason he wanted to meet you personally... badly." He added honestly. "That's why he would charge to any danger, even use his own body to protect you." Yusaku looked to Reborn's eyes, wanting to see if he's actually telling the truth. Without blinking, Reborn kept his eyes focus on his, triggering the novelist's demon side by repeating his word an hour or so ago. "Don't waste it Kudo Yusaku, if you wish to return him back, you of all people know what you must do."

Everyone knew what he means and they knew that word is very enough to make the novelist become more dangerous than any detectives they would ever meet in their entire life.

"You have my word."
