Reborn was fighting Gero above the sky. Gero with multiple blades floating around him dashed to attack him but Reborn swiftly dodge them then block his blade. The remaining floating blade went behind and dashed to stab him from behind, Reborn pushed the Serial Killer up and flew down, the blades kept following him.

Gero began to laugh, "Do you really think you can escape them Reborn!?"

Reborn wasn't intimidated, he only observed the following blades and Gero who had decided to dash forward heading his way. His quick reaction was enough to stop the chaise.

"Chaos Shot!" At one trigger, multiple bullets were formed and hit each blades covered in Cloud Flame before turning to the Serial Killer, Reborn burst his Sun Flame surrounding his gun to block his attack.

Gero pushed his strength, desiring nothing but his blood. Reborn could see how much he wanted him dead, learning the fact he wanted to become the best assassin within the deep mafia so he could guess this kind of reaction was very natural.

"Hey, by killing you does that mean I could kill each member of the Devas too?" Gero question as his expression shows how much blood thirsty he had become. Reborn could only grin, "If you can kill me fake."

Both made another clash as no one could tell which one of them in advantage or disadvantage.

Somewhere where Superintendent Heizo's team on standby, Hakuba was watching their battle in midair. He tried so many times to deduct how could this people produced flame but found nothing.

'All I could guess is each flame are in different color so maybe they are different elements. Could those things control water, wind or something? Now that I remember, there's one that said it was flame but the appearance was like electricity.' Hakuba took a peek on the building in the monitor, 'Just who the heck is this organization? How much do we not know?'

Somewhere within the building, Shin was running alone as he kept his illusion around him to cover his presence. He carefully one by one open the door to see what were inside, everything was normal like what people would see when coming to work. It was obviously normal, the only problem was where were the other members.

'Did they fled?' Shin questioned, 'Did they escape like normal organization would do?'

That's a possibility, using those who were left as bait to tell them they're here but truthfully wasn't and made their escape. Another possibility was to lure them to a trap, making the police, military and everyone else that they attacked a wrong building, which kind of low due to the men waiting for them at the first floor and according to Jii-san, Reborn was currently fighting against the Serial Killer whose real identity was Gero Voss.

'The man named Pietro Gatti is present so there's no way they're not here... are they by chance... waiting?' Shin remembered one time when Mysteria the person who found him, taught him about strategy when comes to dealing with deep Mafia.

There were two normal types, those who waits and those who charge. For those who wait, they'll be waiting on the certain room or area to divide the number of enemies or slow their progress. For those who charge, like war heading on without waiting nor dividing their number.

The Gatti Mafia must be in the strategy of waiting, Gero Voss took Reborn head on while surely the police forces were charging in the moment. He and Kaito who were on the top floor had two goal: one was to find more information about the enemy to avoid surprise or unavoidable worst scenario and two was find the control room where they could take control over the building. Jii-san was trying to hack the system of the building to speed up their progress while Rick was observing the police, FBI, special police and Military movement and so were the enemy's movement.

As if on cue, his communicator connected. He heard Rick's voice, "Shin the FBI with Kudo Yusaku had started heading up while the special police were dealing the search below. The Military on the other hand had engage battle against non-flame user. Be careful, for some reason I can't detect them."

Shin nodded on the information, "Does Jii-san succeed hacking their system?"

"Unfortunately the security is so tight, this is the first time dealing with such strong and unique security." It was Jii's voice who answered, "I could only see the data of their surface but nothing about the dark sides. I'll keep working hard to find my way breaking through Shinichi-botchama."

Shin smiled for his determination, "Thank you Jii-san, please don't push yourself too much."

"Hohohoho you worried too much Shinichi-botchama. Please remember to be more careful." Jii-san's reply made him smile, "I will."

The communication turned off then kept going. He made sure to be careful, sensing few guards that he either hide nor put them to unconsciousness. He never like taking life, not like he had done it before. For him, everyone deserved to live, even the criminals like this organization.

Everyone has a chance to change which for Reborn and the other's point of view was true with the contradiction. For them, those who entered Mafia especially the deep Mafia would hardly or never change, ones bound it won't be an easy escape. Many had tried but mostly failed. For him, Devas are part of Deep Mafia, for being rescued by them had made him involved with them, officially when he learned how to use Deathparation Flame.

As he kept moving forward, he had sense something near the elevator. The walls were clear except the elevator door but still something was off. He checked his surroundings to see some surveillance camera but thanks to Jii-san's hacking that they were all off. Still it's very weird because for one, the surveillance cameras were not one but three in different angles like they're making sure something hidden was safe and the other nothing was here except walls and ahead were stairs.

'Something must be hidden here somewhere.' Shinichi concluded as he started searching.

He remembered the blueprint they acquired from Checker Face, most of the buildings can be accessed by civilian workers well the whole floor but few rooms and floor weren't and said to be storage room.

He took out his phone to check the blueprint ones again. This building had total of fifteen floor. The ground floor as Rick described to be where the Military had engage battle while the Special Police doing the search. If he could guess where his father and the FBI were located, somewhere between second or fourth floor.

The location where he and Kaito separated was fourteenth floor. Remembering back his quick search had driven him to head down two times which means this floor was the twelfth floor.

According to the blueprint, the floor that civilian workers can't access was sixth floor and ninth floor. For rooms, somewhere in fifth floor, eighth floor and eleventh floor.

'Nothing should be special in the twelfth floor... does that mean that...' Shinichi narrowed his eyes as he studied the locations of each surveillance cameras. If he could narrow down, he will find something that the blueprint hasn't able to caught.

He studied the surroundings then checked the walls, knocking to check to hear something different but found none, until he sensed something off on the certain wall.

'Mysteria ones told me about Hyper Intuition that the bloodline of Vongola Famiglia had, its powerful enough to sense the lies and danger that could endanger the lives of the person's surroundings or itself. Still it's not like it's the end for those who don't possess them... does she mean this?' Shinichi concentrate as he closed his eyes to burst out his Mist flame in his ring and began spreading it to the location he sensed wrong.

Suddenly his flame was destroying something and showing him the path his eyes wasn't able to see before. A path leading down who knows where. Shin was surprised for the discovery and immediately informed Rick and Jii-san about the discovery. After telling them he immediately used his flame to make himself disappeared out of sight before heading down with caution, gun in hand as he's ready to shoot any time deem necessary.

The place was narrowed and dark just where was this taking him? Eleventh floor? If he remembered correctly there's a room that workers can't access, does that mean its entrance was here?

His thinking was halted when he saw some light below, gripping his hand to his gun, he kept going until he reached down in silence. He looked around to see something he had never expected to witness.

Cages, large ones like some kind of Jail. Within does were teens and children, some were no conscious who knows if they were dead or sleeping while the rest were awake but different, eyes were blank and neutral, like something within them was killed and now they're nothing but shells of their former selves.

'Wha... wha... what is this place!?' Shin can't help but tremble, his mind was throbbing in pain, like something in his head was pushing him away, blocking the most painful memories. 'It feels like... f-fro-from before... the same sensation... back in Hashima Island... wha... what is this!?'

"Welcome back to your previous home, Kudo Shinichi." The voiced shocked him as he turned around to see the person who tried to shot his father back in Hashima Island. According to Checker his name was Fausto Li Greci.

'H-how did he...!' That's when he realized the illusion he had wrapped around him disappeared. It must be when he lost focus. He glared and point the gun to the man while Fausto smirked, not shaken at all.

"This children are good ones you know, they're quiet, letting us do what we please, really they are good for experiment don't you think Kudo Shinichi? Remember, you are like them." Shin's head began to throb louder, the pain was much that he had to clench his head using his free hand but not putting down the gun. "Looks like I'm right, your memories hasn't surface yet."

His word was enough to glare the man, "What did you do to me!?"

Unbeknown to Shin, when he clenched his head he unconciously opened the communicator sticking to his hears, making the others who also had them could hear it.

Somewhere in the fourteenth floor, Kid kept his acting as one of Pietro's men but hidden his were shadowed. He heard Shin's question from his communicator like he didn't know it was connected.

'Shin-chan?'

Outside in the battle between Reborn and Gero, they were on the rooftop to continue their battle against one another. When Reborn heard Shin's voice from his communicator, he can't help but narrow his eyes deducting immediately that Shin unconciously opened his communicator. Who ever this person in front of him must be the reason of his tense and pain.

"Hoy are you starting to ignore me!?" Gero gave a slash which made Reborn jump backward to dodge it.

Immediately Gero multiplied his blade thanks to the characterization of his Cloud Flame and flew straight to give a strike. Reborn transformed Leon from gun to sword and slashed them away, as he does Gero took this chance to dash forward to strike him again but Reborn's quick reaction had slashed the blades away then block his attack successfully.

Reborn's right feet flared in Sun Flame and kicked him hard, making the serial killer vomit in blood from the strong impact. The young man made a follow up punch but Gero flared his Cloud flame below to dodge and give space between them.

The situation made him twitched, this was their third time battle and not ones he he had given any fatal damage against him. The power he's showing him wasn't like the last time Kid had left with the real Kudo Shinichi, is he telling him he's playing around? That made him mad, he's belittling him, he knew it!

Reborn observed how his eyes reflect and muscle tense in anger, his opponent was angry and he could guess the reason. 'Ones trigger the anger it would be hard to find its flaw to recover.' He mentally smirk, just as he plan. 'I should finish this, I can't have those fools take all the fun.'

Leon change back to a different kind of model of gun, a shotgun. Reborn smirked and pointed it to his opponent, a silent message was convened, your death is near.

Back to the room Shinichi and Fausto was located, Shin kept his eyes on him, still clenching his head while the other had his gun pointed to him.

"As I had said Kudo Shinichi, your memories haven't surface all because of us. After all before you entered our lab and became a lab rat, we should first destroy the will of escape." Fausto smirked, as he crossed his arms, "In other words, memories."

This revelation made his eyes widen. So it was their fault? The reason why he don't have any memories? All because of them!?

"And it seems from trauma, you had forgotten your time here." He strug, "Not that I could blame you for that, Kudo Shinichi... or in your name in our organization, Number 01146."

For some reason his mind began to beat, it hurts that his eyes were begining to close from the pain but refused it especially when an opponent was in front of him. He gritted his teeth, restaining the pain in his head.

Fausto began to chuckle, "What a wonderful phenomenon of human kind. You wanted to rememeber but your subconciousness are preventing you from remembering. Well of course they are, all human does not want to remember painful memories, that includes you Number 01146."

"Shut up..."

"Hmm?"

"Shut up, shut up, shut up, SHUT UP!" Shin outburst as he pressed the trigger. Fausto smirked as he dodge the bullet then taking out his own gun and gave a shoot.

Shin was almost hit but able to dodge it although he got graze on his shoulder but didn't care. Shin shoot ones again but still been dodge then shot back. Shin dodge the bullet but ahead was a child sitting with no care what's happening to his surrounding was hit in the head, giving an instant death. This shocked Shin and turned to the culprit who didn't flater from his own action.

"What's wrong? Don't tell me you will start caring to this dolls. They're no longer children and the evidence is right now in front of you. We kept arguing, none felt fear nor run away. They are empty shells, like you are ones."

Shin glared the man which only made him smirk wider then point his gun on the other side and shoot. Shin immediately run and used himself as a shield to protect another child from being hit. This time he wasn't bleeding, this was immediately noticed by Fausto and hum.

"So this time, you are wearing bulletproof." Fausto said. Shin turned to him and glared ones again, "You are facing me, DON'T INVOLVE THIS CHILDREN!"

"Unfortunately those trivial thing doesn't matter." Fausto raised his gun and pointed it to Shin's head, "As long as you and everyone here will die, sacrifising specimen won't be a problem."

Shin can't move, if he does the child he just protected will be shot but if he didn't move, he will be killed. Fausto knew this for it was according to his plan, how easy to corner the rat.

"This time die Number 01146, Kudo Shinichi." Fausto was about to pull the trigger when a bullet shot his shoulder, making him grunt in pain. Another shot and this time hit his hand, making him let go his gun. "What the heck!"

"Freeze or this time, it will be your head." Turning to the entrance, both occupant were surprised to see the Novelist, Kudo Yuusaku with Akai Shuichi an FBI agent. The one who spoke was Akai, gun in hand pointing to the culprit. For Yusaku, he took step side before running heading to his son and hugged him.

This action surprised Shinichi for a moment because he never really expected to be save by his father no less.

"Son are you alright?" Yuusaku asked in concern. Shin could only stare for a moment before nodding, "Other than the greeze, I'm fine."

Yusaku saw his shoulder bleeding and as his son said, it was just a scratch. This made him breath in relief.

"Thank God I made it in time." Yusaku whispered, relief was totally evident to his tone.

"Now that's quite a surprise, Kudo Yusaku." All attention turn to Fausto who's gripping his right hand as he stood up. Bloods pouring down but he didn't mind as his focus was on the occupants of this room. "I'm surely expected for you and the FBI haven't reach this floor, looks like I am wrong."

"Indeed." Yusaku helped his son to stand up then faced him, "My son started the top floor, I as his father will prioritize finding him first before the rest." He brought out a smalll communicator that Shin immediately recognized, the communicator they own. "Reborn gave me this and someone on the other side instructed me where my son is located."

"Well I'm glad we made it in time, not only we found Kudo Shinichi but also the rest of the missing children." Akai continued. "We heard the whole conversation, don't think I'll let you."

Fausto chuckle, looks like he will have to shufle his plan ones again. 'Just who in the world able to destroy the flow of my plan? Who ever you are, you are quite a challenge.'

Above where Reborn had defended himself from Gero's blade, Reborn unexpectedly sneeze. Disgusted, Gero stepped back to give distance.

"THE HELL!" Gero cursed. For Reborn he rubbed his nose which he will definitely deny he's embarrassed, 'I feel like giving someone a hole.'

Back to the hidden room, Fausto began to stepped back which made Akai cautious.

"Stop or else." Akai warn. Fausto chucked, hand still gripping the bleeding arm. He leaned on the wall, "Or else shoot me? Fine by me... If you can."

Fausto kicked something from behind that opened the secret path behind him and fall. Akai immediately run to give a chaise but lost his target due to the darkness and who knows how deep this will lead. He sigh before turning to the two and shook his head, a silent word telling he lost him.

Shin looked down in shame for not being able to catch one of its member. Same for Yusaku but for now there's something more important needed to be done.

Yusaku put his gun to its case then took a handkerchief before turning back to his son, wrapping it around the scratch to prevent more bleeding then hugged him ones again.

'This warm, this feeling... there's no mistake... this is Shinichi, my son... my son is alive...' Yusaku thought as he feel his son, tears began to pour down of how happy he is his son is finally here in front of him. His son whom he never gave up searching, his son whom he had found been experimented then died and his son whom he never thought is alive and here in front of him.

For Shin or rather Shinichi can't believe it this is truly happening. This is his father, the person he wanted to approached this whole time, the person he wanted to return back, his home.

"Ummm... I... I..." Shinichi can't comprehend a word, knowing how his father miss him so much but for him, he doesn't know anything nor feel anything like familiarity. He just knew him from the information that he is his father, nothing else.

Yusaku noticed his uneasiness so he gave his comfort before facing his son, "You don't need to be nervous, I know you don't remember me." This surprised Shinichi but immediately deduct it must be Reborn whom had told his father about his condition. "Its fine okay, when this is over we'll be there to help you remember. Your mother is waiting, even your childhood friend Ran and Agasa-Hakase."

"Mother..." Shinichi murmured as he remembered the last time he had seen his mother.

It was the time when he and Reborn arrived to Japan, after finding a place to stay they immediately went off to find the people according to Checker Face people he knew. The first one they checked was his home the Kudo minor in Beika. Shinichi blinked on how big it was while Reborn could only whisle, it was expected for a rich and famous people anyway. They only observed from the distance until they saw someone came out from the said home, it was a woman. From the picture came from Checker this woman was named Kudo Yukiko, her mother. She was talking to a child girl whom they had discovered name Haibara Ai, the girl they had turn interest from the matureness and aura of an adult. As she talk to her, Shinichi noticed how everything she show was an act, a mask to cover something that she doesn't want anyone to see. The depression, fault and longing. Shinichi unconciously gripped his chest, feeling guilt for unknown reason but surely the cause is him.

"I had seen mother ones." Shinichi murmured that his father could hear. "Was she..."

Knowing Shinichi was hesitant, Yusaku answered the unspoken question. "At first she learned your dead like I did... but when Reborn told the whole explanation, your mother wanted to see you more badly than I do. She's waiting Shinichi, she's waiting."

Learning she does, Shinichi can't help but smile. Glad for a reason he can't describe.

Akai who had finished telling the other FBI through their own communication about the children, he turn to face them.

"We should get going." Akai announced. Both faced the FBI agent and nod.

"We haven't found the boss of Gatti-Famiglia. His name is Enzo Gatti, surely he's in this building somewhere." Shinichi informed the two in case they didn't know, "The person we just faced was Fauto Li Greci, his strategist. He must be heading where the boss is located."

Akai crossed his arms, "What makes you so sure? In normal way the boss would find a way to escape that's why the military are on watch for any vehicle escape."

"That would happen to normal syndicate but they are different." Shinichi said as Akai's eyes harden. He explained, "I'm sure Reborn inform this already but Gatti Famiglia are type of mafia who don't fear the police and military. For that reason his men are out there to fight against them, the serial killer Gero Voss focuses on Reborn to keep him busy while the other higher ups are somewhere. Kid is survaying one of them, a man named Piettro Gatti the culprit of taking children and said the one who killed me nine years ago."

Yusaku absorb this facts before narrowing his eyes, "So there's a higher chance Enzo Gatti is somewhere in this building. We already found this hidden room where the children are located, surely there's more out there."

Akai seems to be convinced as well, "In that case let's wait for a while until the military helicopter come to take this children then we move forward."

Both had agreed.

"Then as we do, let me share you the blueprint we had attain." Shinichi took his phone to show them the blueprint of the building.

Fourteenth floor, the group continue to be cautious when they heard something fell down. It was metal balls and unnexpected for them it released a smoke. Those who inhale the smoke became sleepy then fell down, as the rest they tried to hold their breathing but failed so they ended up sleeping. The only one left standing was Pietro who had more stamina than them.

Pietro glared his men when the smoke disappeared, "Bunch of weaklings." Feeling something coming, he flared up his Storm Flame to his fist then turned around to swing his hand that he felt he had hit something. It was a card of four clover. Turning to the culprit was one of his men holding a different gun than the rest. He narrowed his eyes knowing who it was, "Kaitou Kid."

The man smirked as he enveloped by pink smoke, appearing Kaitou Kid in front of him.

"Pietro Gatti" Left eyes were shadowed from his hat while his right eye reflects his seriousness, "Its time to pay for your crime."
