Chapter 1: "My Decimo"

P.O.V. Luca

Looking down at the disappearing form of Italy from my private jet, I couldn't help but miss the place already. Leaving everything you know and love just for a measly mission to help train one of Reborn's students… how troublesome...

"Miss Luca, here are the documents of the 10th Vongola boss Tsunayoshi Sawada," a man clad in black said, holding a folder wrapped in plastic. I removed my blissful gaze from the blue sea and white clouds, and accepted the folder.

Dear god, how many more missions do I have to do before the 9th is satisfied? I mean the last one was a complete and utter failure! It lasted three days, and ended up being a fake.

Ugh getting out of track again, back to the matter at hand, "Tsunayoshi Sawada, 14 year old, candidate of being the next Vongola boss. Current location, Namimori High..." I said quietly before throwing it in the trash, "A child shouldn't join something as horrible and ruthless as the mafia, right Azu-chan!" I said happily sipping my hot chocolate. I was about to continue my day dreaming when something caught my eye on the discarded file. "Sky flame…?" I mumbled looking at the page, I smiled lightly before crumpling up the page and tossing back in the trash, "If it is HIM, than I have lots of preparing to do! Yeah? Azu-chan?" I said jumping up from my seat. Azzurra didn't seem to like my sudden outburst since she threatened to bite me if I did it again

I ran to one of the many cabinet in the jet before opening one to find a small book, "If Iemitsu-san in correct, he's the guy I'm supposed to train, yeah!" I said happily flipping through the pages of my targets. "Ooh, here he is Azu-chan!" I said pointing at the picture of a young boy with spiky brown hair grinning at the camera a closed eyed smile. His smile was so innocent and pure that it made me feel like smiling too, but it pains me to see that carefree smile disappear so horribly…

In my train of thought I hadn't noticed how tired I was, so I closed my book and got myself some well earned shut eye, "Night Azu-chan." I mumbled silently, and heard a faint hiss before darkness took my vision, and my past took it hit.

\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\11 HOURS LATER\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\

I woke up hours ago, and for some reason I couldn't go back to sleep. I was so fed up with just staring into the ocean and alternating with the clouds and the book on my lap. "I'm sooo boorreed," I whined, flinging the book to the ground. The flight was boring, 9th didn't even consider my boredom meter and it was killing me to just sit in a plane doing nothing. No games, no music, there was the TV but the only channel was the news.

"Miss Luca, please prepare, for the drop off point is nearing." The guy on the intercom said in his usual emotionless voice. I stretched on my chair one last time before grabbing my messenger bag. I woke up Azu-chan, and told the flight attendant to send my bag to my hotel room.

I walked towards the door, and tried to open it. "Okay where the handle of this thing…" I mumbled fumbling with the doorknob, "Azu-chan, can you do it!" I yelled, crossing my arms in frustration while puffing my cheeks. She gave one of those snake-like eye roles before using her tail to open the door with a click. The wind rushed into the small room as I adjusted my goggles to fit my head perfectly, "You ready Azzurra?!" I screamed over the wind. I heard a faint hiss before jumping of the jet, with no para-shoot.

I hooted and cheered as I rushed past birds flying, and shot through the clouds. Azu-chan was coiled around my arm as I blast through everything.

I loved it. I loved the thrill, like the feeling of watching a climax of a movie, the feeling is life threatening and so exhilarating. Its like the feeling you get when your both scared and excited, like the feeling you get when you want to confess your love for someone. Exciting because you want to see the good result of your confession, and scared because you don't know what the results are.

It was simple yet hard to explain, sometimes I feel like the thrill and excitement would last forever but sadly that never happens, everything has a beginning and an end. The end may be near, or the end will be far, but it is still the end. There is never something that will last forever, that is what Kings should think. "Checkmate" I said with a grin.

The rings around my wrist started to glow brightly and the world around me molded into a mass of different colors before turning into a black abyss, doors of all sorts scattered the black nothingness, one door in particular had a huge word saying "MEETING" the double door was at least 20 feet tall and was carved with black vines and flowers. I floated towards the door in a calm and collected manner before opening it wide. Light flooded into the black abyss before leaving as quickly as it came, showing a city, quiet and still.

"Azu-chan, time to put the act on okay? We have to do exactly what the higher ups say, and that means you hiding so get on with it, okay?" I said to Azu-chan, she hissed in annoyance before wrapping herself around my neck and turning into silver. "That's a good girl," I mumbled before running of towards Namimori High.

The night was eerily quiet, and the clouds, making the night seem dead, hid the moon. It was like a living horror story, minus all the monster and creepy stalkers though. I continued to run until I saw a huge explosion in the direction I was going to, "Oh Aso-san, we're in big trouble…" I mumbled, speeding up my pace.

I reached the school grounds just in time to block an attack towards three teens. I swiped my hands over the attack zone of the missiles, forming a shield that was color blood red. I wiped my head towards the three on the ground before heaving a sigh of relief, "Gosh that was a close one," I mumbled quietly before hearing a groan, I looked over at the group again and saw the girl looking straight at me. I chuckled a little before putting my finger on my lips zipping it with a wink. I jumped up into a near by tree, watching for anything that could pose as a threat.

Minutes later I saw Tsunayoshi Sawada in my place. His entire subordinate's cheered in happiness, before the Gola Mosca, the weapon I was sent to destroy sent more missiles everywhere. I shot ever missile I could set my eyes on with my rifle, instantly deactivating it. "Gosh I think I need more guns on me…" the machine thing caught me before setting its gaze on Tsuna.

"Danger, executing attacks" the machine aimed missiles at Tsuna and I before firing none stop. I dodged and blocked all of them before getting up close to it, and without me knowing that Tuna was right beside me, "Checkmate." I said before my left legs ring started glowing, and I kicked it in the gut, and jumped back from the machine before attempting to run back into the shadows until I felt someone grab my wrist.

"You, who are you?" I heard someone with a calm voice that somehow begged for attention. I chuckled at him, and without turning around I smiled, "Ciao amico mio, ti scoprirà presto" (Hello my friend, you will find out soon) I chuckled at his bewildered look before, pushing him away from me before he could get hit by Gola Mosca. My left hands ring started glow, and before I knew it, the machine was on the floor. I took this as my chance to leave so that Tsuna could continue my work.

Tsuna struck the machine in half and something unexpected came out, "9th…?" I mumbled, jumping of the tree.

Before his head could touch the ground, I caught it and gently landed it on my lap, "Honestly, what will you do without me?" I chuckled quietly, he made no attempt to move, and as if any sane person would do, this worried me. "Nono? Are you going to sleep now?" I asked quietly staring at his unmoving eyelids.

"Its my fault… I- I killed the 9th…" I saw Tsuna drop to his knees in front of Nono, and with a shaky breath continued muttering things like that. "Hey, don't be like that. I'm sure Nono will forgive you, it was and accident, you didn't know." I answered patting his shoulder with a smile. He stared at me wide eyed, before shaking his head, "No it really was my fault…" he shook my hand of making me frown.

"No…" I heard Nono say making me look at him in surprise, "It was my own weakness that led to this… I allowed Xanxus to wake up…" I smiled a reassuring smile to him before saying, "Nono? Right you will forgive him? It was an accident, he didn't know…" I asked quietly. He chuckled, but it sounded more of silent hacks to me and this worried me even more, "Nono, are you okay?" I asked putting my hand on his forehead.

He shook his head in defiance and took my hand, "Luca, I'll be going away somewhere. And I need you to take care of the new boss, okay?" he held my hand reassuringly and patiently waited for my answer. "Are you going to be happy where you're going?" I asked sadly. Tears forced themselves out of my eyes, as I saw Nono smile to me happily before nodding, "Yes, yes I'll be happy," I nodded enthusiastically too, before kissing Nono goodnight, "Okay Nono, I'll watch over decimo, you just go to sleep, 'kay" he chuckled at my statement before exchanging a few words with Tsuna, "I'm glad that I picked you, Tsunayoshi, Luca, I'm glad" a few tears streamed down my eyes as Nono closed his eyes, never to open them again…

I silently put Nono's head on the ground before turning to decimo, "What do you wish to do, Decimo?" I asked kneeling on one and putting hand over my heart. I had to forget about all the heartache for a while. Decimo shakily stood up on his feet, wiping any stray tears away, before turning to Xanxus, "I will take that ring back, and become the next Vongola boss!" he declared. I smiled at Decimo's enthusiasm, and bowed my head.

"Yes Decimo."
