-Kaze-07-: Hey guys! This is the rebooted version of the Tredicesimo series. Like I've mentioned before, it'll have the same story line, but much less randomness. Please, enjoy reading.

Bullet 1: The Beginning
Somewhere in Italy
Tsunayoshi "Tsuna" Sawada continued to be the 10th boss of the Vongola Mafia Family, and under him, peace was brought through out the mafia world.
No more killing, no more corruption, no more wars.
Peace and order expanded through out the entire world, and so, life began to get better.
Satisfied, Tsuna finally decided to get married, and so he did. A beautiful baby girl was given to him. Not long before that, he and his wife took in two orphaned siblings, both boys. They cared for them like they were their own, and the two returned the favor.
It went like that for a long time, until Tsuna decided to retire and give his daughter a chance to lead as the 11th boss.
"Well, the plane is ready to go..." a boy with long, semi spiky black hair with red strands said, his eyes over shadowed by his hair. "I'm about to go myself..."
Tsuhime Sawada, daughter of Tsunayoshi Sawada and Kyoko Sasagawa - Sawada, and the 11th boss of the Vongola Family known as "Hime", continued what her father started.
In her family, she was closest to her brothers, especially the eldest of the three of them, Zephyr Sawada. They had a relationship that can't be compared to that of siblings.
In the mafia world, she managed to keep peace going on. That is, until a tragic incident happened.
Tsuhime went to a meeting by herself, without any of her guardians with her, and was attacked by dozens of assassins and hitmen. All of the attackers were taken care of, but when a search party came, the 11th boss wasn't found anywhere. Weeks were spent trying to search for her, but it didn't take long until she was officially announced 'dead.'
The whole mafia world grieved over her death and started accusing and blaming each other, causing wars to erupt again.
Without question, Zephyr volunteered to be the 12th boss of the Vongola, to temporarily replace Tsuhime until she was found.
There were questions about his blood heritage, but once he took the inheritance test, the Vongola ring of the Sky did not reject him, meaning that he, and possibly his younger brother, has the blood of Vongola running through his veins.
When Tsuna accepted him, he immediately took action and tried to bring peace and order back into the mafia world.
"You're all grown up now..." the familiar voice of a man with caramel colored hair that defies gravity said, his eyes also over shadowed.
"He sure is... He's actually almost as tall as me now..!" another familiar voice of a woman with bright orange hair said, her eyes are also over shadowed.
Zephyr Sawada, the eldest adopted son of Tsunayoshi and Kyoko, and the 12th boss of the Vongola Family known as "Meteor Gunner", struck fear to whoever hears his name.
He was devastated to hear of the 11th's disappearance. He took it so hard, he locked himself in his room for 12 days. When he finally went out, he asked his father to give him the seat of the 12th boss. The 10th happily gave him a shot, and he wasn't disappointed. Slowly but surely, Zephyr, along with his guardians, began to bring peace and order back to the world.
That is, until another incident happened. Like Tsuhime, Zephyr went to a meeting by himself and was suddenly attacked by 2 battalions of assassins. He took care of them with ease, but when his guardians came, he disappeared just like the 11th.
Troubled, the Vongola family became desperate to find a new boss to replace the 12th.
Tsuna temporarily went back to being the 10th until they found someone to be the new boss.
Without warning, the youngest of the three siblings, Kaiser Sawada, went missing. The whole Vongola Family became more troubled, especially Tsuna himself. For the past 10 days, rumors about a mysterious hitman nicknamed "The Red Flash" spread through out the mafia world, scaring even the Vongola, wasn't actually helping.
But after exactly 13 days, Kaiser returned, surprising everyone with the request of being the next boss, the 13th boss of the Vongola Family.
"So, do you have everything you need, Kaiser?" asked the man with gravity defying hair.
"Dad... I already told you guys not to call me 'Kaiser' anymore. I'm Christian now." the bloody raven haired boy replied. "Sebastian. Is everything good to go?" he continued.
"Hai, Christian-sama. Our luggage has been place on the plane. When we land, a car will be waiting to pick us up. And finally, the house we'll be staying at is ready. We're good to go, sir!" the man named Sebastian answered. He has semi-long, jet black hair combed neatly into place. His eyes were like shining black diamonds.
As Kaiser Sawada, the youngest adopted son of Tsunayoshi and Kyoko, came back from his 13 days of disappearance, he seemed to have changed. From being the innocent, loving boy he used to be, he seemed to change into someone more calm, more powerful, and definitely someone who is not innocent.
He calmly told his parents and the others that the reason for his disappearance was intense training to be a suitable boss for the Vongola Family.
The rumors about the "Red Flash" that the whole mafia world was talking about was actually him. He had been training under different people, learning their ways to be accepted as a boss.
Tsuna hesitated, but seeing the firm resolve of his son made him accept his request.
A few years has past, and Kaiser is now ready to take the seat of the 13th boss. All that's left to do is to find his guardians.
But with the mystery concerning the disappearances of the two previous bosses, a 'prophecy', and a war that's bound to happen, with a new name, new companions and new powers, Kaiser Sawada, also known as Christian S. Arcs, must hurry and find his guardians before it's too late.
"Alright. Then I guess we better get moving. The earlier we get there, the better."
"Well, before you go, son, I want you to have this." the man with the gravity defying hair looked up, revealing himself as the 10th boss of the Vongola Family, Tsunayoshi Sawada. He extended his arm towards the bloody raven haired boy's direction.
The boy finally looked up, revealing his bloody black eyes. He stared at the object the man in front of him was holding. It was a black briefcase with a gold plated crest of the Vongola Family on both sides of it. He knew what were in it, for he saw them himself back then when his siblings were still with them.
"That's..."
"Yes. I want you to have it. It's yours to begin with, so I'm giving it to you now; for when you find your guardians." Tsuna smiled at him, giving the boy a feeling of warmth.
"...Thanks, dad." the boy, Christian, smiled back.
"Christian. Be careful when you get there, alright? Even if you're stronger than your father here, you're still not invincible." the woman with orange hair said, revealing that she is Kyoko Sawada, wife of the 10th. "If you need someone to cook for you, just call me. I'll fly immediately to where you are and cook for you!"
"Mom, it's okay. I promise I'll be alright. I have a very reliable butler here with me, just in case you forgot." Christian said, pointing at Sebastian who's currently behind him.
"I promise you that I'll take good care of him, Decimo, Kyoko-san." Sebastian assured, bowing slightly.
"Please do, Sebastian-kun. We're counting on you." Tsuna said, smiling a bit.
A man in a black suit wearing sunglasses ran towards them slowly. When he was close enough, he spoke. "Tredicesimo. The plane is ready for your use. Your orders?"
"Well, then. We'll be going no-"
"Hey," a man's voice cut Christian off. Then, he saw a small, shining object heading towards him. He skillfully caught it with ease, and looked at the object. I was a bullet. A dying will bullet, to be exact.
"Keep it with you at all times. If you're in a pinch, just shoot yourself with it. You know how to use it." the man continued, revealing himself. He was wearing a suit, a fedora hat with a green chameleon on it, and has pretty weird side burns.
"Ah. Arigatou, Reborn-ojisan." Christian smiled softly, staring at the bullet in his hand. "I'll keep it with me at all times."
"Oh. Remember to be on your guard. Even if you have a demon for a butler, it won't hurt to be careful."
"Hai hai. I can take care of myself."
"Christian-sama. We should go now."
"Alright." Christian replied monotonously. "Mom, Dad, we'll be going no-" he tried to continue, but was cut off when his parents sandwiched him in a hug.
"Look both ways when you cross the street, okay?" Kyoko said, tears daring to fall down from her eyes.
"If you get lost, don't be afraid to ask people for directions. Remember that, alright?" Tsuna added, hugging him more tightly, along with his wife.
They bombarded Christian with more reminders like, "Don't forget to brush your teeth every morning." or "Always say 'Ittadakimasu' before you eat, and 'Gochisousama' when you finish." But Christian wasn't annoyed at all. He actually seemed to be happy. But then, his parents said something that he will never forget.
"Contact us everyday, okay, Christian?"
"Finish this mission as soon as possible and come back to us, son. It was hard enough to lose you for 2 weeks. We wouldn't even think of being away from you for a more than a month."
Those words that he has just heard broke through his poker face, since tears started to fall from his right eye.
"I will. I'll call you guys everyday, and we'll return as soon as the mission is over." Christian said, and although tears were still falling from his eye, he was smiling. "This won't take long. You guys are starting to forget that I'm the 13th boss of the Vongola family. This'll be done in the speed of light."
"We're counting on you, Christian."
"Master Christian, are we ready to go?"
"...Alright. Come on, Sebastian. We're leaving." Christian replied, walking towards the plane.
"I promise I'll take care of him. I'll protect him with my life."
"Arigatou, Sebastian-kun. Please do."
"I will... I owe him this life..." Sebastian said with a small smile on his face. He then glanced behind him where he saw his master walking towards the plane, his back towards them. "Protecting him with my life is microscopic, compared to what he did for me and my sister... He pulled me out of Hell, pulled my sister out of a fake Heaven, took us in, knowing that I once did something horrible to him, and treated us like family... I'll forever be grateful to him.."
"..That's just how he is... If he sees someone suffering, he'll risk his own life to pull them out off Hell. Even Heaven..." Tsuna replied, smiling a bit.
"Please take care of Maria for me, Decimo-sama, Kyoko-san.."
"We will, Sebastian-kun. But..., we have a better idea." Kyoko answered, smiling.
"Eh?"
"Sebastian! Come on! We don't have all day!" Christian yelled. He was already inside the plane. "Do you want me to leave you or not!" he continued with a question.
"O-Of course not, Christian-sama!" Sebastian replied. He faced the couple again. "We'll be going now, Decimo, Kyoko-san!" he continued with a bow. He then ran towards the plane, leaving the two waving at them.
Inside the plane
"We're all set, Christian-sama!"
"Really? Have you checked my things?"
"Hai! Your clothes, shoes, and everything else are in the back!"
"Everything?"
"Hai! Your guitars, cards, yo-yos, even your accessory weapons!"
"Alright."
"Your orders, Christian-sama?" Sebastian's question seemed to put Christian in a world of his own, for his master suddenly pauses. But then, with firm resolve shimmering in his eyes, he replies.
"Destination: Namimori, Japan..!" Christian ordered.
As the plane began to move, Christian had a small flashback.
It was a memory he doesn't recall. It was his time in Italy with his parents, his brother and sister, and everyone a little younger. He then saw someone who he was looking for since the start of the flash back.
A young girl, about 6 years old at that time, with long, straight black hair with pink strands, stood before a 7 years old version of himself.
This girl has been appearing in his dreams since he began his intense training. He doesn't know who she is, or why he wasn't able to remember her until now, but he does know that she's important to him.
The 7 years old version of him said something inaudibly, which irritated him a little bit for he just stated her name, for the girl responded by calling him back.
"A-Ano... What do I call you? Kai-kun, or Chris?" the girl said shyly, looking down.
"Eto... kaa-san said that you're gonna be my wife someday. So I guess you can call me whatever you want, ..." he replied. Christian concluded that whenever his younger version would state the girls name, it becomes inaudible. He also realized what the girl asked. Kai-kun is acceptable, since he was called Kaiser back then, but Chris? He wasn't Christian at that time.
Just who is this girl...?
"T-..Then I'll just call you...-"
"Christian-sama?" the voice of his butler made him snap out of his flashback. "Please, take your seat. We'll be ascending any second now."
"A-Ah.." he replied, taking a seat right beside his butler.
Trying to recall his flashback earlier, he decided that he'll recall it better asleep.
"Sebastian. I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up when we've landed."
"Hai, Christian-sama. Oyasuminasai."
After their agreement, Christian then rests his head and tried to sleep. He knew that it'll be a long day when they get to Japan, so it'll be better to recharge his energy. He then falls into slumber.
-End of Bullet 1-
Oh, wow! I can't believe I actually have time to finally post this! So? What do you think? I'm pretty proud of it, if you ask me. Seems a little bit more arranged. R&R and tell me what you think!
Also, I'm sorry about the late release. I'm in college now, currently taking up Architecture, so I'm pretty busy right now. I'm not really sure if I can continue updating, but I'll try!
And so, this ends the first chapter of the rebooted version of Tredicesimo: Finding Family! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed!
