Chapter Text
The moon was at its highest. Illuminating the beautiful Italian city, whose elegant buildings demonstrated the antiquity of its history. The stone pathways glittered leading people to their destinations and guiding the path of the lost. There were no artificial lights to overshadow the beauty of the sky today, all by a joint agreement of its inhabitants.
This full moon night was bound to be beautiful, lovers huddled on their balconies watching the sky covered with glittering stars. Each person saw their windows and roofs, the most prepared had made a place for themselves on the Italian beach. Everyone was looking forward to tonight's show.
Old men and infants, men and women, good and bad. On this night in Sicily there was no one who did not expect the natural phenomenon that would only occur once every thousand years.
The ancient chroniclers mention this event as unique. The day the planets would align and create a bridge for the arrival of the gods and star beings. The day the stars would fall and the world would turn upside down. Although many scientists disagreed with his claims, evidence was discovered 2 months ago that this event would repeat itself. And the place where it would be seen completely would be Italy.
Many curious people had gone touring and professionals were looking for an opportunity. Sicily was at peace under the moonlight that purified the city, a silence that gave the feeling that there was nothing to disturb the world.
Where there is light there will always be darkness. It is a truth for the world. The good cannot exist without the bad.
The Italian mafia stood out in that, for the gangsters the arrival of this event meant much more. A thousand years ago, a similar event had given birth to a phenomenon recognized as "The Great Ignition", the appearance of people who could use dying will flames. The best known as the 7 flames that cross the skies.
Whose simplest existence is divided into 7 elements: sky, cloud, storm, rain, lightning, fog and sun. At first the people able to use them will obtain the title of demons and witches. Persecuted throughout the world due to the belief that they had come out of hell.
But with the arrival of a mafia family, its use and knowledge expanded only to members of the underworld. Away from civil knowledge, this was the mafia's weapon against society.
The event that all flame users had been waiting for had returned. And this was the third time, the second time it had been hidden by the mafia. On that occasion all the flame users in the world had been affected by a massive increase in their flames almost driving them insane. Many gave up soon after starting and others stubbornly pushed themselves to the limit, often ending in death.
For those who resisted to the end, the reward was welcome. All those who made it through that day were closed in the first generation of the most powerful mafia families today. In addition, there was a large increase in llama users, many of whom were drawn into the mob and those who did not link to them had been removed. The first generation of Vongola in their time was known as the strongest generation and in fact was until recently.
Compared to "them" the first generations baptized by the second Great Ignition, and even the mysterious beings of the First Great Ignition were nothing more than a mockery.
10 years ago a new mafia family formally appeared. Cross family (cross family). Its members are almost unknown, but the few that are known are monsters, not in the literal sense. The purity of its flames is unmatched, the quantity and power cannot be calculated. They didn't use them enough to get accurate results.
There were rumors that the world's most talented minds who disappeared eight years ago were also involved in the family. Therefore, it was to be assumed that its technological and biological development was also greater. Since they owned something called weapon boxes.
Also, some witnesses who managed to survive mentioned that they had strange techniques. Using terms like calamity, chaos, catastrophe whose contexts cannot be ascertained. Needless to mention, the witnesses turned up afterwards. They did not know their location, members, power, leaders, they had nothing.
And that was reason enough to call them: A threat.
They will never be able to capture one of them, even with the prophetic abilities of the Giglio Nero family. But this time they have a chance. The day of the third Great Ignition was tomorrow and the trap was set.
The ignorance of the arrival of the third Great Ignition, for the Cross family was confirmed by the current leader of the Giglio Nero family, Yuni. And they took a chance this time, releasing the information to the world.
The big mafia families formed an alliance to destroy them. Taking advantage of their weakened state, the stronger the flames appear, the more insane state they would have to endure. As families with a great legacy they have long ago created a machine to diminish the effects of Ignition. The little spy had bitten off more than he could chew, but that was also in his plans, the best lies are the ones with a bit of truth in them.
The Vongola family was in charge of attracting the bait, it was time to settle accounts.
The old figure peered through the window frame, a cruel, mocking glint in his gray eyes. Seeing a white speck that fluttered agilely between the buildings of his mansion, he had not seen it for a long time, it was a pity that such a talent disappeared this time.
He pressed the emergency button that was the signal for the start of the plan, the dam had entered the network. Lights were turned on throughout the mansion, and different types of flames shone in the darkness. This time they were determined to eliminate him. This beautiful night would be the day of his fall. And what would guide them would be their belief.
-"Family is for everyone"- He remembered the words of his adoptive son, something had changed in him that day. Its flames had glowed like never before.
-All will die because of one. A shame.
