Sorry to everyone who thinks this is an update, but it's not. As of today, I officially announce that this story is BEING REWRITTEN.

Yes, I'm rewriting it, not abandoning it. I love these characters too much for that. As for my LONG absence and the reason why I'm rewriting my story, I have my own reasons for that, and I am sorry, but I can't tell you. It's a personal problem of mine, and though it was hard dealing with it for the past three years, I am happy to say it's all done with now. I now have the peace of mind I had when I first wrote this story, and I hope it will last.

As for why I'm doing this rewrite, well, three years brought a lot of change to me, including my writing style. And when I re-read my old stories in order to get a fresh perspective on them, I found myself cringing so hard at some parts, and moaning in despair at the way I wrote a few of the chapters. And my grammar was just... UGH.

And that is when I decided to rewrite this story, and in the future, I will put up a (hopefully) better version of this story. You can count on that.

A friend asked me if I will scrap the whole story and write a new, completely different plot than the original, and my answer is NO. Yes, I will replace some parts of it with different takes, but no, the premise of this story will remain the same. I will not change the whole story, but some parts have got to go.

With that being said, expect a new, better version of this story in the future. Thank you to all the faithful fans of this story, and I will do my best to live up to your expectations in the future. Without your encouraging words, this story wouldn't have taken off as well as it did.

Thank you again, my beautiful readers.

As an apology for the long wait, here's a little treat for you guys: an excerpt from a not-yet-published-scene-in-this-story-but-was-initially-supposed-to-be. Goodbye for now（◐ω◑ )

("Reborn once told me I have the self-preservation sense of a suicidal lemming and he's probably correct." -Mirai)

*Warning: implied adult content and general violence*

Mirai opened his eyes blearily, taking note of his surroundings as best as his sleep-addled mind could. This was all done in the span of a second, he would like to add, after all, being put in kidnapping situations by his insane tutor purposefully just to increase his reaction time did pay off. No, he is not puffing up in pride of his resulting awesome kidnapper-takedown moves and near-superhuman reflexes, nor did it make him feel like a superhero. And he is definitely not boasting right now. Shut up.

'Okay, marble floor, and oh, hey, this is an awesome carpet I'm lying on, I wonder if I can take it back with me. Wait, what was I doing again? Oh, right. Gunpowder smell, broken bottles, charred wood, sliced wood, smashed wood, man there's a lot of destroyed furniture in here, feathers, and something wet that smells like whiskey on my back... And... Oh, hello there...'

The puzzled set to his mouth slowly turned into a leering grin when he turned his head to the left.

Where a figure (covered in what looks to be a curtain) laid, draped over his suit jacket, completely nude. Well, he assumed the figure to be so, from the pale hint of a very shapely behind underneath the curtain. His hand caught a long lock of silky silver hair between his thumb and index finger, relishing the softness of it and admiring the slender figure of the unknown woman he'd woken up next to after what appears to be a vigorous night of debauchery (if the wreckage around them was any indication, but hey, he likes violent women. Makes the challenge and subsequent victory in bedding them even sweeter *insert perverted grin here*)

Relishing in his apparent victory at scoring another hot lay, he hardly noticed when the woman turned to face him.

The sleepy groan that sounded deeper than he expected it to be did catch his notice though.

Superbi Squalo, after years of dealing with a boss that has a temper more violent than an overgrown brat (and the high-maintenance of said overgrown brat if the brat grew up in all the luxuries that came with just a snap of his fingers) had long since developed a tolerance to all kinds of strange, dangerous, and often humiliating situations- an uncanny sharpness that instantly gave him a clear head to make split-second decisions in order to get out of said strange, dangerous, and often humiliating situations intact.

So when he woke up that day naked as the day he was born in the wreckage of his bedroom, with the mother of all hangovers, a soreness in his back where there shouldn't be, and a similarly naked brown-haired man (who broke into their headquarters yesterday) leering at him, he immediately drew the correct conclusion in a much-less-roundabout way than his companion and his immediate reaction is this.

"FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...!"

Mirai, for lack of anything else to do, smiled serenely in return and said only three words.

"Yes we did."

Because the world needs more Seme!Tsuna but this turned out to be even weirder than I thought it would be LOL (●′ω`●)
