The wind was blowing heavily this morning, as Reborn observed his student and his small family from a tree. They were strong and only getting stronger together and to top it off he was sure that he had found several other candidates for Tsuna's guardians, but there was still something missing. But he didn't know what yet, but like the heavy winds that told of the oncoming storm he had a feeling he wasn't going to need to wonder for long. With a smirk and a tip of his fedora he jumped from the tree and headed inside just as the first few drops of rain began to fall.
A figure stood outside the gates of the school with a smug smirk on her face the heavy winds whipping the loose choppy layered long black hair that was so dark it had blue and purple highlights, "The wind is strong today, I wonder of that's good or bad omen. Ah, Namimorie it has been so long, I wonder what has changed." The smirk turning into a condescending smiled she grabbed her things and headed inside for her first day.
"Student's to your seats we have a new transfer student, so give her your attention." The female homeroom teacher said as she motioned for the new student into the class. Tsuna wasn't paying much attention he was to worried about what his test score was going to be, until a sharp pain in his head made him actually pay attention, courtesy of Reborn.
"Hi, I'm Ren Alauda, I've just transferred here from Ireland and before that I was in Italy." Ren said with simple ease.
"Oh my you've been to a few places haven't you, what brought you to Japan, and where were you originally from?" The teacher asked.
Ren kept the easy aloof smile on her face as she answered, "I was born in Japan and I traveled the world with my father, he was an Archeologist, but he just recently passed away so I've come here to live with my grandmother."
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, well I wish you the best now your seat will be over in the back corner by the window." Ren nodded her head and sat in her assigned seat, and listened to the chatter begin again as the teacher left the room to a study period. She let the smile drop from her face and observed the students in her class, and just like every other school she had been in they all seemed to turn to shades of grey in her eyes. With a sigh she looked out the window and watched with a sense of peace as the heavy winds played havoc with the limbs and leaves of the trees and pushed the darkening clouds ever closer to unleashing the summer rain.
She liked storms and overcast weather she also liked it when there was a bright blue sky and a light crisp breeze to keep any heat off, she hated the heat. It made her irritable and impatient and with her short temper and love for a fight it could cause problems. She glanced back around the room and listened to the inane dribble that some of the girls were talking about, like the latest fashions, and what boys looked good, of course she could appreciate a good looking guy as much as any girl but she didn't see a reason to gush about it. Her shoulders sagged and a sliver of sadness reflected in her silver grey eyes. This was to be her life from now on, no more traveling to dig sights and looking at ancient relics or mummies, or helping her father decode an ancient text. No more running from dangerous hostiles and wild animals or needing to defuse ancient booby traps to keep out grave robbers. Just normal boring everyday things that repeated themselves over and over again. The thought made her depressed.
"Umm, Alauda-san?" a hesitant high pitched male voice grabbed her attention.
"Yes, sorry what was your name?" Ren asked back nicely, the boy in front of her was short for someone his age with spiked brown hair and eyes.
"Sawada Tsunayoshi, but everybody just calls me Tsuna." He replied.
"Or No Good Tsuna." A female with wavy dark hair and intelligent eyes came over to them followed by another female and two other males. "I'm Hana, and this sweet girl is Kyoko." She pointed to a smiling girl with chestnut hair and eyes.
"If you need anything or want a tour around the school then don't hesitate to ask." Kyoko said cheerily.
Ren smiled the girl had a sweet and innocent feel to her that made you instantly want to like her. It creped Ren out, but she still had to be polite and courteous even if she couldn't stand them, something her father had beaten into her head. "Thanks, I will. Actually do any of you know where the Reference Committee room is I still need to hand in my paperwork and get my uniform." Ren gestured to her attire of black pants and white dress shirt, she gave them all a confused look when they all tensed up at the mention of the committee. "Is something wrong?"
"It's better if you don't go there right away, you'll probably be beaten if you do." One of the unnamed males with short black hair and naive brown eyes said. "Ah sorry, I'm Yamamoto Takashie, and this grouch is Gokudera Hayato."
Ren politely said hello back to them and got an annoyed 'che' from Gokudera, "So why shouldn't I go right now?"
"B-because if you go right now than Hibari-san would kill you for not wearing the uniform." Tsuna said as a shudder went through his body.
"Is he really so unreasonable , I mean it's my first day and I don't have the uniform yet so how would I be able to where it. And who is Hibari?"
"Hibari Kyoya is the head of the disciplinary committee and really strong I've never seen anybody defeat him and I've never seen him be merciful to anyone that he thinks is disrupting the peace of the school." Hana said with a shiver. Ren listened to the group talk more about this Hibari person but the more they talked the more the guy began to interest her, and suddenly among those shades of grey there may be a bright spot of color, but of what color she didn't know yet.
So when the lunch bell sounded she completely ignored all the warnings the others had said and went to find this disciplinary head, of course not to fight just to turn in her papers and get the uniform. But a girl could hope. When Ren finally tracked down the committees room she found it completely empty and that disappointed her, not only had she not met this Hibari Kyoya, but even more she couldn't get her uniform or papers finalized. With a sigh she left the packet of papers on the desk in there, she glanced out the window and smiled a real smile at the furiousness of the wind, and without a second thought she ran to the nearest roof access.
