Chapter 1 of Step by Step

The new Decimo...what? Decima?

It was obviously spring because not only the cherry blossoms but also other kinds of flowers were in full bloom. The bright blue sky was adorned with those white bulbous shaped clouds that somehow resembled a marshmallow. Ah, yes, it was quite peaceful right now if you lived somewhere else except Namimori.

School was over which announced the beginning of the students' chattering with one another. Everyone was talking with each other happily in Namimori Middle School. Well there were the exception of one student since he was anti-social and hated crowding.

But there was also another one who wasn't talking to someone else.

A boy with a petite figure sat under a cherry blossom tree at the back of the school. He wasn't particularly alone since he was also with a family of birds.

The boy gazed at the family of the birds that was on the branch over his head, they seemed to be happy since they were chirping altogether. The boy sighed and leaned back against the tree, pulling his cap, which resembled one that was from the 1800, down. He rummaged through his bag and looked for something.

An eery silence fell upon the boy's ear until a small smile appeared on his face as he brought out an orange iPod nano that had matching ear plugs attached to it. He smirked and pressed a random button while placing an ear bud before music went through his ear

"Cause You're gonna go far kid" his voice sounded girly which resembled the voice that he was hearing on the small electronic , he knew this song very well. He checked his watch which was ticking in a steady pace and his eyes widened before he hurriedly stood up and scurry out of the school.

He was late and he knew it.

Wait, If your wondering who this boy is, he is actually Tsukiyuki Sawada, but he has a very deep and dark secret. So don't let his looks fool you, because that's what his good at.

Tsunayuki turned a right when he saw a familiar yellow stop sign and continued running while listening to the music that kept on repeating over and over again

"HIIIEEE!"He shrieked as he ran to the side, avoiding the car. He started to sprint once he knew that there were no more cars to eventually bump him,a few more seconds were left before he would be screwed and he could somehow hear the ticking from his watch which made him even more fearful if he was late

He ran passed a house that had a chihuahua, which had a very intimidating look, and was barking loudly at him. Tsuna just passed by it and shuddered when he glanced at the Chihuahua which somehow haunted his dreams

He came to an immediate halt when he was in front of a house with a brownish orange roof. He quickly opened the gate and slammed it shut when he entered the front lawn of his house. He opened the door of his house and quickly removed his shoes.

"I'm Home"

His exclamation echoed throughout the whole room

He walked through the hallways with socks as he heard his mother speaking with someone

"Ah! Tsuna must be home now!" his ears perked up and sudden curiosity rose in himself. He didn't even expect anyone today, sudden his eyes widened

Is Dad home?, was his abrupt thought. He stayed frozen in the hallways as his Mother, Nana Sawada, walked out of the living room.

Her chocolate colored hair resembled that of Tsuna's. Her eyes were a dark brown color which also resembled Tsuna's but he had a golden tint into it.

"Tsuna?"

His mother waved a hand in front of him, snapping him out of his thoughts as he looked at her with hope on his caramel colored eyes.

"Is Dad home Mom?" he intently asked.

Nana's eyes widened at his question and sadness flowed through her eyes before it was instantly replaced with happiness. She smiled and sadly shook her head, she had to stay strong for her child.

"No Tsuna"

"Then who were you talking to?"

Suspiciousness quickly evaded his whole feeling as he looked at Nana.

Nana lightly laughed at the look her child was giving her

"Your new Home Tutor"

As she said this, she brought out a flyer, which Tsuna roughly grabbed it and read it slowly memorizing the whole thing.

"Mom, what Home Tutor sleeps in OUR house, eats OUR food, and it's all free as long as we do this so that he could teach me?"

"That would be me"

A small voice said from below, both mother and child looked down to see the two year old fedora wearing baby.

Tsuna's chocolate orbs glinted an orange color when he saw the yellow pacifier hanging around the baby's neck. It caught his attention because it looked like it had a flame inside of it

The baby looked at Tsuna with a smirk on his face.

"Ciaossu, Tsunayuki Sawada" he greeted.

Tsuna's body froze, what the hell? A baby fluently talking Japanese?!. He thought disbelieving. But soon his expression stayed passive as he asked in slight bewilderment which was a but rude

"Who are you?"

"Hmm? I'm Reborn and I'm the Home Tutor"

Tsunayuki snorted causing Nana to give her child a disappointed look when she heard him say.

"I'm sorry kid, but I have nothing to learn from a baby"

Reborn didn't seem to agree about it and gave the thirteen year old boy a swift kick in the chin, causing poor boy to go unconscious.

Nana watch amusingly at the home tutor, who was dragging her child up the stairs rather roughly.

"Well, I'm gonna teach him now" he said, looking at her with a small smile "Thank you for the tea" he bowed before he disappeared upstairs with Tsuna.

Nana giggled

"So that's how tutors are now these days"

Reborn laid the boy on the floor of the guest room which consisted of a one person bed, a dark brown wooden coffee table that was surrounded by a green pillow on each side. The walls were painted in a white color and the floor painted in a blue one. Reborn stared at the boy, who was unconscious and gave him kick in the head to wake him up from his slumber. Tsuna's eyes widened at the sudden pain in his head and he groaned while sitting up.

"O-Ow" his voice changed into one of a feminine one, causing Reborn to raise his eyebrows. Tsuna looked around the room before his eyes landed on the toddler before him. His eyes widened before he repeated what he said instead his voice was a little deeper than before

"O-Ow"

Reborn's eyebrows rose even more at the boy, his suspiciousness rose even more and he began to doubt if this boy was really a boy.

". . . why did ou knock me out earlier?"

Tsuna asked him as calmly as he could since it wasn't his nature to suddenly be so angry but he was definitely pissed, suddenly remembering all the memories before he was knocked out by the baby.

Reborn ignored him and began to bring out Leon, the green chameleon on his hat.

"This is Leon and you must address me as Reborn, not kid" Reborn said and all of a sudden, a blinding light engulfed the green chameleon causing Tsuna to protect his eyes with his hands.

Once the light died down, their stood Reborn holding a dark green rifle instead of the chameleon, surprising Tsuna in the process.

Tsuna gasped at what he heard next

"I am not actually a home tutor" Reborn started, holding the rifle as if ready to shoot. "my real line of work is assassination not to tutor kids" he continued. "my real job is to actually make you the next Mafia Boss of the Vongola Family"

All of the anger that Tsuna felt went down the drain with whoosh!

.T.

..S..

...U...

...N...

...A...

...Y...

...U...

..K..

.I.

"So I'll be the next Mafia Boss?"

Tsuna calmly asked. Reborn nodded his head. Tsuna sighed and wondered, why am I even calm, shouldn't I be panicking now?!. Oh yeah, that wasn't what Dad thought me.

Reborn watch Tsuna's face go from disbelieving to curious and lastly to a sad look. He felt annoyed at the small frown that was on Tsuna's lips

"But why me? Aren't there others?" he asked, hope rising up but was quickly destroyed

"No, the best candidate, Enrico, was shot in a family feud" Reborn said holding up a picture of a black haired man that had a bullet through his head.

"The second candidate, Matsumo,was drowned to death" he continued showing another picture, this time it was a picture of a fat man under water, his eyes were already white initiating that he was already dead

"And the last candidate, Frederico, the child favorite was found reduced to bones" he finished with fake agony in his voice, holding a picture of a small skull with some bones scattered around it

Tsuna felt sick looking at all the dead people, and sighed shaking his head, trying his best to imagine anything happy

"You have been chosen to be the next Mafia boss because you are a distant descendant of the first Vongola Boss" Reborn said showing a chart which consisted of many names. And of course, Tsuna's name was at the last below his father's ,Iemitsu Sawada, name

"Do you know anything about me?" Tsuna asked calmly. "Because if you do then that must mean that everything you said was true" Tsuna was very calm... Now

Truthfully, Tsuna actually did panicked, but he calmed down after Reborn threatened to shoot his head or blow him up. So here they were now with Tsuna asking this question

"Tsunayuki Sawada, son of Iemitsu Sawada and Nana Sawada. Thirteen years old and turning fourteen in five months. A failing student in Namimori Middle School in Class 1-A. You have worn that worn out cap ever since you a child for a reason that has been unknown even to me. And you have apparently found a liking to music that is why you carry that music device everywhere you go"

Tsuna's eyes narrowed

"Your like a stalker you know that?"

A swift punch in the face

"Ow!"

There it was again, that feminine voice.

Reborn's eyes narrowed at that and asked

"Why do you have a feminine voice?"

Tsuna's head snapped toward to face Reborn, he began to sweat cold sweat and lied

"W-Well, I inherited my voice from my grandfather from my mother's side who also had a girly voice."

It didn't seem to be the truth since Reborn could see Tsuna look to his right while clenching his fist.

But he decided to stop this meaningless conversation

"Why do you wear that hat?"

So he changed the subject

Tsuna looked away from Reborn and played with his fingers

"Um... Um... H-How should I put it this way?" he stuttered nervously.

"I-I'm actually a-"

"TIME FOR DINNER!"

Nana called from the first floor which made Tsuna shoot up from his seat and say

"Y-Yeah! let's go eat dinner now!"

Tsuna praised the Lord for this.

.T.

..S..

...U...

...N...

...A...

...Y...

...U...

..K..

.I.

"Phew" Tsuna sighed from relief, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead and clutching the pink towel around his body, hiding his chest and other private parts. He locked the door of his room and closed the door to his private bathroom. He also closed the curtains for good measure.

He looked around suspiciously, which he does every night before removing the towel from his head.

The supposedly short chocolate brown hair flowed down his back almost reaching his back. Water droplets from the tips of his hair dropped to the floor.

"Hah, finally" His voice wasn't deep anymore and sounded even more feminine than before. He removed his towel and walked through the room nude.

He had no signs of any male parts which revealed his true gender when he was alone in his room.

Tsunayuki Sawada wasn't a He but a She!

(It wasn't too surprising to the readers now since they found the hints or if you've read the summary ^~^)

Tsuna walked to her dresser and pulled out her underwear and pajamas. She hurriedly dressed up before throwing herself on her orange bed.

She looked at her room. Blue walls, carpeted floor and a dresser. A study desk in the side with a stuff panda on top of it. Beside her orange bed was a drawer with an alarm clock. A door beside the desk making her brown eyes look like it was close to tears

Tsuna sighed, her room wasn't too girly, which she was thankful of.

She rolled to her side, clutching a teddy bear adorned with an orange necklace. She sighed again before muttering

"It'll be harder to keep the promise now"

She closed her eyes, immediately going to sleep, her light breathing was silent as she slept throughout the whole night with peace.

"Why are you following me again?" Tsunayuki asked the armed infant who was walking beside him. Reborn ignored her and seem to be in deep thought making the Namimori Middle School Student sigh.

Tsunayuki's mind wondered somewhere else until she was snapped back into reality. Her whole body froze when she heard an unfamiliar voice beside her. She looked to her left to see an orange haired girl crouching down in front of Reborn with a face that seem to adore Reborn.

"Kyaaa~" the girl cooed "So cute~" she mused. Tsunayuki tilted her own head in confusion at the girl in front of her, she seemed very familiar yet so new to her.

"Ciaossu" Reborn greeted with that fake smile of his. The orange haired girl's smile grew even wider when she got a greeting

"Why are you wearing a suit?"

"Because I'm in the Mafia"

And finally, the girl noticed Tsunayuki looking at her with curiosity and interest. The girl shot up from her crouching position and smiled sheepishly.

"Ah sorry, My name's Sasagawa Kyoko" the girl introduced herself as Kyoko. Tsuna nodded her head,hitting the cap a little up to show Kyoko her large brown eyes

"I'm Sawada Tsunayuki but you may call me Tsuna" she replied nonchalantly yet she felt happy on the inside that she was talking to someone who was from the same school as hers.

"Is he your brother?" Kyoko asked the cross-dresser who stiffened.

"Ah, no"

"Oh.. I see"

An eery silence fell upon the three until Kyoko broke it

"So you study in Namimori Middle School?" Tsuna decided to break it since it was becoming very awkward.

Kyoko nodded

"I'm in Class 1-A"

Tsuna's eyes widened

"Really? I'm in Class 1-A too!"

Kyoko smile widened before saying

"Then that means that we're classmates so let's get along Okay?"

Tsuna's eyes widened again before she looked away, a blush tinting her cheeks. Kyoko looked at Tsuna's silent form with worry and concern before she finally realized it

"Ah! I'm sorry for being too casual with you!"

She apologized with a bowed head. Tsuna looked at Kyoko and began to wave her hands frantically

"No! It's not like that!" She exclaimed "It's just that I'm not used to meeting someone as kind as you" he added quite embarrassed while scratching his cheek, a habit he never forgot.

Reborn watch the two mingle about and decided to stare at Tsuna's happy form. He still didn't know what the boy was hiding from him but he will find out about it. He decided to stare and observe Tsuna's actions which were somehow graceful

"Bye Tsuna! see you in class!"

That snapped him out of his thoughts as he saw the girl walking away from them. He looked at Tsuna who had a dreamy look on his(her) face

"You have a crush on her don't you?"

Tsuna's head snapped over to him, disbelief written all over her face

"What? no! I just met her for God's sake!" she exclaimed flabbergasted. Reborn rolled his eyes at her and brought out Leon in his gun form

"Wait.., what are you-" she couldn't finish her sentence because she was shot in the forehead by a bullet that came from the gun

Reborn below at the tip of the gun and waited for his magic to work.

Meanwhile, Tsuna was being engulfed by darkness, her thoughts only occupied a certain memory. A memory of her childhood.

She watch her younger self, probably six and half already, wearing a light blue hoodie with the number 27. A plaid pink skirt below untucked. White stockings and pink running shoes. A familiar orange necklace around her tiny neck that looked like the one the teddy bear on her bed had

She watch her younger self play around the play ground like any ordinary child would, but the most abnormal thing here was that, she was alone unlike the many children who were gathered around and playing with each other on the other side.

Tsuna knew why those kids were glaring at her younger self with full if hate, they didn't like her but before they did, before they would play with her everyday with her two best friends that she misses a lot

But too bad she couldn't turn back time now, she couldn't reaturn to the happy times that made her bpgreat nor could see return the people she loved back to her, that was the most regretful and miserable thing about time, it was horrible since nobody could control it however they want and time never gave them a chance to relieve their happy past

Suddenly her head felt blank.

She looked at her younger crying self being approached by a figure and being comforted by that figure that she never knew, her eyes widened, this wasn't part of the memory.

She reached out her hand to touch the figure's shoulder but all that happened was that she just went through the mysterious figure, her whole body being engulfed by a white light

.T.

..S..

...U...

...N...

...A...

...Y...

...U...

..K..

.I.

Reborn impatiently waited for the boy to wake up, he was amusing himself by watching Leon try to catch a fly with his tongue. His eyes wandered over to Tsuna, who's forehead began to light an orange flame.

The girl who was dressed as a boy opened her eyes which weren't a chocolate color anymore, but an orange color that resembled that of the flame with a golden iris.

Her clothes exploded into flames which only left her in her dark grey boxer shorts and the bandages that wrapped around her chest that concealed her true gender.

"REBORN!"

Reborn watch Tsuna with amusement as the thirteen year old swiftly dashed away from the infant hitman

"I WILL FIND SASAGAWA KYOKO AND TELL HER HOW I FEEL!"

Several passerby looked at the odd crossdressing girl, one even dared to mutter

"Kids these days, don't care what they wear, that's why never let your kids only wear diapers at a very young age, trust me"

An old lady shuddered at the horrible memory that was stored deep inside her brain, which have been awakened to haunt her dreams once more.

An old man ,driving an upgraded motorcycle, was humming with delight as he drove away to deliver the food which was to be delivered to his ever loyal customers, okay, he knew that was a lie since his customers weren't very loyal to him. But at least nothing unordinary happened

He should have never thought of that.

Because all of a sudden, a thirteen year old girl that looked like a boy ti him, jumped out of the bushes and ran through the roads where the man was driving.

SCREEE! BAM!

The elderly man tried his best to stop his vehicle, but it was too late because he was too close. He had a few seconds to decided whether to save himself or the girl, but being the greedy man he was, he chose himself and hit the boy square on the chest sending the youngster down the cliff of the road.

"I HIT SOMEONE!"

But he never thought of the consequences, being kicked into jail for hitting -killing- someone was the summary.

Tsunayuki was falling down the cliff and with her dying will, she grabbed onto the rocks of the cliff and kicked the cliff hard which sent her flying back through a couple of bushes. She immediately turned around when she heard a familiar voice

"Ah! Senpai!"

Taunayuki jumped out of the bushes, hitting the senpai in the process, and yelled out

"I found you!"

The poor lass looked like she was scared to death, which she was.

"SASAGAWA KYOKO!"

Kyoko's eyes widened, was this Tsuna?. Her first thought arrived into her mind

"I LIKE YOU! SO PLEASE BE M-"

Tsuna's sentence was never finished because a hard object hit head hard. The dazed cross-dresser stumbled a few steps back holding her injured head.

"You Hentai! Stay Away from her!" the senpai yelled with cold black eyes that stared down at her making Tsuna a flinch at how icy it was.

"Come on Kyoko, let's go and leave this loser"

"Ah, but wait Mochida-senpai!"

Kyoko protested but her arm was roughly grabbed by the black haired boy, she was dragged away from Tsuna with a sad look on her face yet curiosity in her eyes, what was he gonna ask?. Was her thoughts

Tsuna held her head in pain and looked around her surroundings, until every memory came back.

"Reborn!"

She yelled quite madly

"Yes?"

The female snapped her head towards the infant and gave him a cold hard glare

"What did you shoot me with?!"

She demanded answers while he was willing to give it to her

"That was the Dying Will Bullet I shot you with"

He brought out a golden bullet that had a V sign in the middle

"This bullet resurrects any person that had been shot by it with their dying will"

He explained while watching Tsuna change into his(her) extra school clothes which came from the bag

"Reborn! Did you know what you just did?!"

"Yes, I have seen that you have plenty of dying will that will be useful and essential in the future when you become the 10th Vongola Boss"

Cue le Facepalm

"Wrong! You just made my high school life even more miserable!"

Tsunayuki stood in front of the door of her classroom with a pale white face, her chocolate orbs filled with anxiety

"What will happen when Kyoko sees me?"

She sighed before opening the door where she was bombarded with teasing of her classmates

"Here comes the pantsman!"

"Haha! It's the Hentai!"

"I like you!"

"Confession of love!"

"We heard from Mochida-senpai!"

"Lover Boy!"

Tsuna rolled her eyes at her classmates and found them annoying so she shut the door and turned around to be faced with guys clad in heavy armor

"Woah! You can't go home yet!"

One of them yelled and carried her on his shoulders

"Captain Mochida is waiting is waiting for you in the dojo! So get ready to meet your punishment!" he chirped.

Tsuna's eyes widened and before they could take her to the dojo, she had grabbed on a branch from the tree outside of the school and hauled her way up to the tree, hiding from those people.

She watched several classmates of her run towards the dojo and she sweatdropped, are they that eager to see her get beaten up?, She thought and jumped down the tree with grace.

She looked around before knowing that the coast was clear.

"Ciaossu"

Tsuna looked down to see Reborn, her eyes narrowed into a fierce flare, she was pissed off at him

"Have you seen what you've done?!"

Reborn ignored her and said

"why don't you face that guy?"

Tsuna's face was one of bewilderment

"And get myself killed and even more embarrassed? No thanks" was her reply

"Your a coward"

Tsuna's eyes snapped opened at the insult

"what did you jut say?"

"your parents raised a coward, what a disgrace" he continued

Tsuna gritted her teeth in annoyance

"Your mother doesn't seem like the one who raised you much,could it have been your father who made you this way?" he continued

"Then he was a coward too" he finished

Tsuna's eyes glowed with anger, her chocolate eyes turning into ones of amber. She walked away from Reborn

"Oi,Where are you going?" he asked

"To show you that me and my father aren't cowards"

.T.

..S..

...U...

..K..

"he looks like he ran away!" Mochida laughed whole-heartedly. "Looks like I win!"

"Not so fast Mocha-senpai!"

A few giggles and laughs were heard from the crowd when Tsuna announced this.

Mochida turned his head and narrowed his eyes

"Well if it isn't the Hentai Stalker! God may have pity on you but I will smite you!" he said quite arrogantly.

Tsuna rolled his eyes

"Yeah,yeah, whatever"

Everyone looked at Tsuna with bewilderment, did her just say whatever?!.

Mochida was the first one to snap out of his trance

"You bastard!" he yelled and noticed the eyes that were strangely looking at him. "Ah, I mean, this will be an easy duel even for an idiot like you"

Tsuna's face went red

"So of you can get an ippon* off of me then you win" Mochida shrugged "This could be easy for a novice like you"

Tsunayuki nodded

"And the prize shall be Sasagawa Kyoko of course!"

"Ehhh?!"

Kyoko shrieked and stared at Mochida with horror, together with her friend, Kurokawa Hana, who looked ready to kill the kendo club captain.

Tsuna gritted her teeth and grabbed a wooden sword that resembled Mochida's. She looked at the roof window, a glint of gold was there and she winked at that direction and mouthed some words.

"Ready! Begin!"

Tsuna charged in while announcing this with the sword in hand ready to strike

"Hey! Wait you forgot your armor!" two guys yelled from a far carrying a suspiciously heavy armor.

Tsuna ignored the two and continued to run

BANG!

Tsuna fell to the floor, her face hitting it in the process, her head near Mochida's feet, she looked like she was about to surrender but it didn't look quite like it because she still had the sword in hand, and only an idiot would believe he was forfeiting

"HAHAHA! What?! Are you begging for mercy now?!" Mochida laughed. Kyoko's eyes widened with horror.

Everyone seem to worry about Tsuna since she wasn't moving for a good thirty seconds until an orange flame lit her forehead and the clothes around her body bursted into flames leaving her in her grey boxers and the bandages wrapped around her chest, concealing her true gender

"REBORN!" She yelled with seem to surprise Mochida. He couldn't even step back because his ankle was grabbed by Tsuna and he fell to the found with his leg up.

"I'LL GET IPPON WITH MY DYING WILL!" she announced and sat on top of Mochida senpai's stomach, straddling him in the process. Everyone's eyes bulged out when they say Tsuna pull on Mochida's black hair, her fist holding a handful of those hair.

"I GOT HYAKKUPON!*"

She yelled

An eery silence passed along the dojo before everyone bursted into cheers and laughter.

"That was smart Dame-Tsuna*!"

"He never specified what you had to get Ippon off of him!"

Tsuna showed it to the referee, but the guy never brought the red flag up making Tsuna her teeth

"Damnit!"

She cursed

She grabbed another handful of that hair and pulled on it, repeating the process until Mochida looked like Ikkaku from Bleach. His shiny bald head matched his unconscious pale face

"ZEMBU-PON*!"

Tsuna announced bringing her arm above her head to show the handful of hair, she looked at the referee, who quickly raised the red flag.

Whispers of horror went through the kendo club

"Is that really Tsuna?"

"He's scary"

But the audience said otherwise.

"Woah! Amazing! I can't believe Dame-Tsuna actually beat Mochida-senpai!"

Tsunayuki heard this as the orange flame from her head began to die down until it completely disappeared.

She grinned when everyone crowded around him, giving him compliments and a slap on the back, no longer giving her insults.

Kyoko!, her thoughts reminded her and she looked back to see the school idol there, smiling at her.

"Incredible!" she exclaimed which took Tsuna aback.

Suddenly, Kyoko went from cheerful to shy. She fiddled with her fingers while saying

"Ah, I'm sorry for the misunderstandment a while ago" she apologized and asked "so, what were you gonna say earlier?"

Tsuna looked at her with a confused expression until she realized it

"Ah!" she said which made everyone silent from that loud exclamation

"I wanted to say, I like you! So please be my friend!"

Crickets were heard all around until mostly everyone except Kyoko and Tsuna fell on the ground and facepalmed

"Man! So you weren't a Hentai after all!"

One guy said.

Tsuna nodded

"Of course, those people are disgusting" she made a disgusting noise which sent everyone into a fit of laughter.

Kyoko laughed with Tsuna and replied "Of course Tsuna-kun! We can be friends!"

Tsuna's grin widened

"Mocha-senpai... I hate guys like that so it's a good thing I won or else you would have landed in the hands of a real Hentai"

Tsuna smiled back at her making Kyoko's smile even bigger

Unknown to everyone, someone was watching Tsuna with a scowl on his face, his silver hair had matched his fierce emerald orbs which created a fierce aura around him, but those fangirls of his said otherwise.

Tsuna was walking down the path of home, listening to her Ipod. She swayed her hips to the rhythm. The sun was setting, creating an orange color in the sky which made it beautiful for Tsuna

"Hana ge nai tenshi wa boku ni itta"

"Ciaossu Decimo"

Tsuna unplugged one of his earphones from his ear and looked down on Reborn, the fedora wearing infant. She smiled at him

"Hi Reborn" she sounded cheery which made Reborn raise an eyebrow. Tsuna seem to noticed what were Reborn's thoughts and answered it.

"I wanted to thank you because if you hadn't helped me then I would have never made any friends" her smile was bigger and brighter than the sun which amused Reborn and also brought satisfaction to the hitman.

The two walked in peace going home

"By the way Reborn, what does Decimo mean?"

"it's the male leader term for 'The tenth'"

Tsuna let mischief spark in her eyes and decided to trust for once in his life

"Then call me Decima!"

"No! It means I'm a girl you idiot!"

The sky is dark because God had just created it, but a small spot is bright ,soon to be big until there is no darkness left to engulf it anymore.
