Hi everyone! Sarah is back! This is my first time writing in KHR Archieves so please forgive some of my mistakes alright? This story would be a little confusing at first so please bare with me. I promise the story would get a lot clearer as it progresses through time. There are somethings I need to clear up first before the story begins and it is VERY IMPORTANT* If you miss reading this, you'll be stuck alright?

Giotto: 18years old

G: 18years old

Asari: 18years old

Knuckle: 20years old

Lampo: 15years old

Deamon: 19years old

Alaude: 20years old

In this story, Lambo is the TYL Lambo and not the five year old one (Because for some reason, I like the older version *And it also helps the story*)

So now than I got this clear up, let us begin reading!

Special thanks to my Beta Reader: Dream36 (I really need to thank you again for your help! :) )

Disclaimers: If I'm the author of KHR, I'll be demanding for a second season to be done and broadcast! XD

~Prologue~

The Phone Call

In Venice, the city of water, a grand mansion was sitting peacefully. The silence was broken only by a phone ringing in one of the bedrooms, resounding throughout the beautifully decorated space.

The individual underneath the warm and comfy-looking blanket stirred slightly before reaching out a porcelain hand to grab the piece of technology. Flipping it open to press the little green button, he placed the device to his ear.

"Hello, who is this?" the person asked sleepily as he rubbed his eyes.

"Ciaossu! Where's my good morning?" the person on the other end asked with mischief laced in his tone.

"Hahaha, very funny. So, what do you want? It's still like, what, six in the morning and I went to bed just an hour ago." The grumpy teen said as he sat up on his bed.

"Paperwork's torturing you, I see. It never ceases to amaze me how a few stacks of paper can make your ever so happy mood go sour in a few seconds. The fastest it's ever happened was in a second." The person on the other end laughed. The teen inwardly 'tch-ed' and started to speak again.

"So, what do you want from me and this old heart of mine? It's very rare for you to call me and not give me the same talk of how you wanted to see how your ex-student is doing. Unless you want something from me."

"Ouch, that hurt my heart."

"Spill. If you don't, I'm hanging up." The teen threatened.

"Fine, spoil-sport. Over the years you've really learned my sadistic sides along with my long vocabulary of curses." The person on the other end laughed. Then a second later, his tone changed into a serious business-like tone.

"I need you to train this generation's family."

As blunt as ever whenever it comes to favors, the teen thought.

"Why, pray tell, do you want a very old and retired mafia boss to train them?" the teen asked.

"Because, we've got a few leads on that matter." The boy's eyes widened a little before his angelic face broke out into a small, handsome smirk.

"So, they have appeared again, huh? And here I thought I completely eradicated them after they placed that blasted thing on us." The teen said absent mindedly. The person on the other end kept silent. He knew it was a very dark memory for his ex-student.

"So, do you want me to bring every one of us to train them or am I enough to train them alone?"

"Every one of you if possible, unless you've dispatched them on missions already."

"No, everyone is here sleeping." The teen said.

"Good. Take your private jet here to the headquarters. I expect to see you two hours later. If not, you know what will happen to you."

The teen shuddered as he sensed his ex-tutor smirk slyly over the phone. Oh, he really didn't want to relive his childhood nightmare all over again.

"Fine, but I'm not making a big entrance."

"Aw, and I wanted to see your spectacular entrances again since it has been so long."

"Well in the past it was you who-"

"Addios!" There was a small click and the line went dead. The teen sighed as he tossed his blanket aside, swinging his legs over the edge of the bed to step onto the red carpet.

"Looks like I can't have a normal day now." The teen sighed again and headed to the bathroom.

~Chapter 1~

Meetings are always the Beginning

~Location~

Italy, Sicily

Vongola Headquarters

~8am~

"Reborn, can I take a break, please?" Giotto asked, pleading with his tutor to stop giving him papers to sign every 5 seconds.

"No. You got one just twenty minutes ago." The infant replied as he placed yet another paper on the desk.

"But I stopped for only three minutes." Giotto said, sighing tiredly. Early this morning, Giotto, also known as Vongola Decimo, was woken up rather rudely by his tutor swinging a 100-ton Leon mallet to his head making said boy crash into the wall of his bedroom. Needless to say, the boy woke up rather quickly.

Next, his dispatched cloud and mist guardian came back with bills for him to sign. It wasn't one or two papers. On the contrary, it was at least four dozen papers from his cloud guardian and twelve dozen from his mist guardian.

As if that wasn't enough, his storm and lightning guardian were blowing part of the mansion up yet again. Most of the destruction came from G, who was using explosives on the youngest guardian for unknown reasons. What he considered lucky was his rain and sun guardian and Reborn being civilized by not blowing anything up or racking up bills for him to sign.

"Oh, right. Dame-Gio, sign this; it's for my new espresso coffee maker. If you don't, I'm blowing up half of this mansion so you get to do more paperwork."

…Alright, he took back what he said about Reborn not racking up bills and blowing up his ancestors' mansion. Sighing heavily for the umpteenth time that day- scratch that, that morning- he continued to sign the cursed papers.

Looks like its going to be another tiring day for me, Giotto thought as he took yet another paper. Suddenly, his Hyper Intuition got worked up making him lift his head to look at the small window in his office. Standing up from his plush chair, he walked towards it and peered outside.

Reborn glanced at his student who had stopped working and was about to kick him in the head when he felt an ominous presence in the Vongola mansion. Frowning, he went towards his student to see what he was looking at.

His Hyper Intuition must have picked something up- and this presence can't be good, Reborn thought as he jumped up to the window sill. His coal black eyes scanned the premises and the presence vanished in a split second.

Strange, it's gone, Reborn thought, a frown on his face as he tugged on the rim of his fedora to cover his eyes. There was a knock at the door and in came G, Giotto's best friend and right hand man.

"What is it, G?" Giotto asked as the red-haired man walked towards the desk, only to stop a few feet away. There was a white sheet of paper in his hands as he read off of it aloud.

"'Seven hooded figures were spotted in the town. Sources say that they were suspicious and it looked like they were coming towards us.' What do we do, Giotto?" G asked as he looked up at his friend who was thinking about the situation.

"Tell our subordinates to stand on guard, but if they look like they're about to hurt any civilians to stop them. We'll greet those seven people." Giotto said in a business-like tone. His clumsy side disappeared as he took his black mantle off the small coat rack in the corner of his office.

"But what if they're here to assassinate you or kill us?" G asked.

"Do you really think they'll do that, G? They've already been seen by our friends and even if they try to kill me, they'll do it discreetly, right?" Giotto stated as he walked towards the door with G trailing after.

Reborn smirked as he listened to the report and looked out of the window yet again after turning around to listen to what G said.

"And here you said you didn't want to make a spectacular entrance." Reborn said out loud in the quiet office. Jumping down from the sill, he walked towards the slightly ajar door.

"Boss, why didn't we get the plane to land at headquarters?" a girl asked.

"Because, I don't want to make a big entrance for that person." A teen replied as he pulled his cloaks hood further down. He knew he had attracted the attention of some of the townspeople but most of them didn't give them a second glance since they looked like common travelers.

"I'm tired! Let's take a break." A whine came from one of the cloaked figures.

"Shut up and walk you stupid cow!" another of the cloaked figures snapped, obviously angry that the 'stupid cow' kept complaining ever since they landed their private jet not too far away from the town.

"Hahaha, it's been awhile since we walked together like this." A cheerful-voiced figure spoke in an attempt to stop the argument.

"Ah, it's been too extremely long." Another said while one of the cloaked figures laughed oddly, a quiet 'kufufu'.

"You had all better shut up or I'm biting you all to death."

The leader of the group sighed and smiled at the forever unchanging scene in front of him. His friends could always find a way to make him smile, even if it was the everyday occurrence of quarrelling and bickering.

He soon stopped in front of the large and familiar black iron gates, his six friends halting behind him.

"It's been a long time since we last saw this mansion, right, guys?" the teen said. He turned to look at his friends, who nodded in response.

Suddenly, the iron gates creaked open with the utmost slowness. Walking confidently, the group followed their leader through the grand gates and into the mansion's land. In front of them, the Vongola guardian of the storm stood with a frown on his face.

"Are you the people our subordinates reported?" G asked as he eyed them.

"Yes, we are." The teen said. He knew that Vongola's men had reported them to the higher-ups. He was sure that that person never even announced that they would be having guests in the mansion. That was why he decided to walk into the town and not land the private jet in the mansion's landing grounds.

"Follow me then, but if I see any signs of you harming our boss, you'll be saying hello to the other world. You got that?" G growled threateningly before turning and beckoning them towards the mansion.

As the group was lead to the lounge to meet the current boss, the teen looked around the hallways and the paintings that adorned the walls.

Seems like everything's the same since the day I passed on my title, the teen thought as G opened the door to the lounge.

The ceiling high window allowed sunlight to pass through it making the room bright. There in the middle of the room were two comfortable chairs and two sofas facing each other. In the middle of the chairs and sofas, there was a classic coffee table. Not too far away was a fire place, but it was unlit as it was still quite early in the morning.

"Wait here. The boss should be here soon." G said as he closed the door, leaving the group to explore the room. The youngest of the group went straight to the sofas, not wanting to sit in the chair that was meant for his boss. The teen in the brown cloak saw from the corner of his eyes that the tonfa-wielding boy was leaning against the wall and looking out of the window at the scenery. The twin tricksters were seated on the opposite sofa of the youngest of the group. Both his right and left hand man where bickering- well, mostly his right hand man while the other was laughing. The healer of the group was, well, going around the room yelling about something.

The teen sighed as the door behind him opened. Turning around, his eyes met sky blue ones. The person in front of him could be described as handsome and another word which he didn't use on most people; 'hot'. The person was also in shock when he saw beautiful caramel brown eyes staring into his own.

Shaking himself out of the stare, he put on the professional smile that Reborn taught him to do and went towards his mysterious hooded guest.

"Hello, my name is Sawada Ieyasu but you can call me Giotto." Giotto said stretching out his hand or a hand shake. I wonder why I just told this person my other name.

"I am the Vongola Decimo." He continued. The hooded figure smiled at him from underneath the hood as they shook hands.

"It's nice to meet you Giotto-san. My name is-" the teen was cut short when the door opened and Reborn stepped in.

"Ciaossu!" Reborn greeted.

"Reborn!"

"Reborn-san!"

"Master Pao Pao!"

"Kid!"

"Infant."

"Kufufu, Arcobaleno."

Giotto raised an eyebrow and looked at his tutor. The infant merely smirked, Leon in his hands.

"Long time no see, my Dame-ex-student." With that, Leon transformed into a gun. Reborn took aim and shot.

Giotto stared, wide eyed, as his tutor fired his gun. The hooded figure moved so quickly that his hood flew off. He landed gracefully behind Reborn.

"Is that how you greet me when you the one who asked me a favor?" The teen asked as Reborn turned, smirking at his student's speed.

"Looks like your skills have yet to become rusty, eh, Tsuna?" The sun Arcobaleno said as his ex-student smiled, bending down to Reborn's level to shake his hand.

Giotto stared at the teen before him. He was about fifteen to sixteen years old with a long ponytail tied by a white ribbon. His hair style was similar his own- defying gravity in layered spikes- except it was brown. His baby fat was gone, making him look more refined and his voice sounded like it had yet to deepen from puberty. Even though the teen was two to three years younger than him, he was quite the eye catcher.

"First, can we take off our cloaks?" Tsuna turned to see the figure flanking his right and the rest of the group nodding too, asking silent permission to discard their cloaks.

With Tsuna's affirmation, they shed the cloth. Giotto's eyes widened as he saw the spitting images of his guardians. Come to think of it, he thought, turning his eyes toward the sight of Tsuna smiling at his friends as two of them started arguing. This person here looks like me, minus the long strands of brown hair at his back. He looks like my other twin.

"Oi, Dame-Gio, are your guardians coming soon?" Giotto snapped out of his thoughts and he hurriedly nodded towards Reborn.

"Yes, they are, I asked G to find them. So Reborn, who are they?" the blond teen asked. Reborn smirked and pulled his fedora down.

"Have you ever wondered why only low-class assassins have tried to kill you, Dame-Gio?" Giotto shook his head. Reborn's smirk only grew as he explained.

"These people here are Vongola's special squad. They deal with the top assassins among the groups sent to attack Vongola's boss. They are called Salognov Wodahs, a squad higher in rank than the Varia. They are the boss' own secret assassination group and also, Vongola's own Spartan trainers besides the Arcobaleno."

"For the last time Reborn, we aren't Spartan trainers like you!" Tsuna said but he got ignored.

"The youngest in the group is Lambo." Reborn said pointing towards a teen around fourteen years old.

"Nice to meet you Vongola." Lambo said, closing his right eye.

"The person who heals everyone's wounds after or during the mission is Sasagawa Ryohei."

"It's extremely nice to meet you." Ryohei half-yelled, half-said.

"Salognov Wodahs's trickster and his sister, Rokudo Mukuro and Chrome Dokuro."

Giotto shivered inwardly as Mukuro laughed his signature 'Kufufu.'

"Nice to meet you too, Vongola Decimo. Come on, my darling Chrome, greet the young man." Mukuro urged as Chrome nodded shyly.

"N-nice to meet you too, D-Decimo-san" Chrome said softly.

"The squad's intelligence president, Hibari Kyoya." Reborn said pointing towards another Japanese boy with steel black eyes.

"Flock around me and I'll bite you to death." Hibari said, flashing his tonfas dangerously. He's like a mini Alaude. Giotto gulped as he nodded in acknowledgement.

"Next in line are the two vice-captains; Gokudera Hayato and Yamamoto Takeshi." Reborn continued on, pointing to a silver-haired teen and a smiling Japanese boy who was scratching the back of his head.

"It's nice to meet you, Decimo." Gokudera said with a bow.

"Yo! Nice to meet you, Giotto–san!" Yamamoto said cheerfully.

"Don't get so familiar with the Tenth!"

"Hahaha, fine, fine, Gokudera-kun."

"The captain of the team here is my Dame-ex-student Tsunayoshi." Reborn said pointing towards Tsuna who was half a head shorter than Giotto. Tsuna smiled as he bowed exactly forty-five degrees.

"My name is Tsunayoshi but please call me Tsuna." The teen said.

"It's nice to meet all of you- Salognov Wodahs." Giotto greeted. Following his greeting, the sound of footsteps and animated chattering could be heard outside of the room.

"Looks like my guardians have arrived." The blond teen said as the door swung open, revealing his right hand man G who had a scowl on his face.

"Giotto, next time gather your f**king guardians yourself." G snarled. Asari Ugetsu smiled and patted G's shoulder.

"Maa, maa G. You know they're like that. Besides, you used the same line of not gathering Giotto's guardians last time but you still did today, didn't you?" Asari laughed. G gritted his teeth to fight the small shade of pink coming onto his face. It was his own miscalculation after all.

"So, who are those people over there Giotto and why is there a clone of me?" Lampo asked, putting his right hand behind his head.

"Nufufu, now that you mention it selfish brat, all of them look like us with minor differences. Say, Giotto, did you clone us? It's not really funny when you mess up my clone's hair to look like a pineapple." Daemon Spade said. A tick mark appeared on Mukuro's forehead.

"Kufufu, sorry to say this Melon head but I don't not look like a pineapple." That in turn added fuel to the fire as the two look a likes quarreled.

"For doing something illegal, I'll cuff you to death." Alaude said, bringing out his trusty handcuffs.

"Why didn't you tell us about this Giotto?" Asari asked with a smile. Despite his cheerful demeanor, he was very serious when you looked into his eyes.

"Forgive him for not telling the truth to you my lord, Amen." Knuckles said as he held up his rosary.

"W-wait a minute this is a misunderstanding. G, help me out here!" Giotto cried. G sighed a little before agreeing. Around that time, the poor Decimo was cornered.

"They're the guests that were reported by our subordinates, you idiots." G explained as a collected 'oh' was heard except from the Cloud guardian, who 'che-ed' silently. Once his guardians had spread out, the blond sighed, relieved that he was spared from them.

"Looks like everyone is here, good I'll start by why their here. Introductions can be done later again." Reborn said as he saw Lampo opening his mouth. The green-haired teen closed it quickly.

"Oi, Dame-Tsuna, explain to them." Reborn said as he sat on his ex-student's shoulder.

"You're the one who called me for a favor and you're asking me to explain the situation to them?" Tsuna asked. Upon feeling a cold barrel against his head, he sighed softly and looked to the corner of his eyes to see Reborn smirking, his finger lingering on the trigger.

"Fine, you win Reborn. Listen closely everyone because it involves all of you." Tsuna said seriously. His happy expression melted into a grave and business-like expression.

"A few days ago, one of the past rivals of Vongola resurfaced again. They were known as Genesis. During the time of Primo they slaughtered people who sided with Vongola and, not only that, they did experiments on them. They would send the dead bodies of Primo's comrades to Vongola's doorstep if the experiment failed." Tsuna paused as he allowed that information to sink into everyone's brains.

"That continued for two weeks until the last body of their dead subordinates came back. Just when Vongola started to rebuild itself again with new members, Genesis struck for the second time. But the second time was different, as they came in when it was nighttime to kidnap Primo and his guardians."

"During the time when Primo was in captivity, Vongola was in chaos. People were afraid that they would be left to die without a leader and left. Only a small group of fifty to eighty men stayed behind to defend this mansion. They waited for three weeks, until one day the headquarters of Genesis was destroyed. The small group of men wanted to go to the destroyed Genesis headquarters to find Primo, but that wasn't needed, as at the front gate lay their Primo and his guardians drenched in blood."

"In the end nobody knew what happened before the Genesis headquarters blew up. Only Primo, his guardians and the sole survivor of Genesis knew what happened. The sole survivor of that famigila, however, disappeared from Vongola's radar a few months later. They didn't know what became of him until a few years back during Ottavo's time. The mafia was spreading word of Genesis stating that they were gathering people to join their family."

"Of course Ottavo asked her subordinates to track them down but yet again they disappeared from their radar. Until a few days back, a small famigila was attacked by them. The proof of their revival was the signature black rose that they discovered hundreds of years ago." Tsuna said, finishing the story.

A few minutes before, Lampo's face turned a little green and now every one of Decimo's guardians and the person himself were uneasy with that small piece of history. Even Giotto himself didn't know or come across this particular story; Reborn never even mentioned it!

"How does this involve us, herbivore?" Alaude asked. Tsuna saw Hibari twitch at hearing his catchphrase from someone else's lips. The captain turned towards Alaude, who had his arms crossed and was leaning on the wall beside the door.

"Genesis wants revenge on Vongola for almost annihilating their famigila. So the situation all seven of you are in is the classic tale of avenging your family members who have died in your enemies' hands." Tsuna explained as he took a seat on the comfy chair.

"Why didn't Vongola Primo kill the survivor of that famigila? He sure would have a chance at killing that person right?" Lampo said already seated in the sofa before Tsuna told the gruesome history of Vongola.

"…" Tsuna murmured. Giotto, who caught Tsuna whispering about something, looked at the brunette.

"So, what are you guys going to do, huh? Protect us? Sorry, but we can manage it ourselves." G said.

"Oi, don't talk to the captain like you know him so well." Gokudera said with a scowl

"Maa, maa, Gokudera-kun. You used to talk like that in the past with that attitude as well." Yamamoto wheedled, earning himself a whack on the head courtesy of Gokudera, who was cursing along the lines of 'baseball-freak'.

"Actually, Dame-Tsuna here along with his squad is going to train you guys for the battle with Genesis. They, Genesis, are after all on the same standing point as the Vongola rings." That statement brought about surprised looks from Decimo's guardians and the blond himself. Reborn, still seated on Tsuna's shoulder, the corners of his lips rose a little at the expected response.

"Dame-Gio, you and everyone else are going to be starting your training two days from now. You'll still be doing your paperwork, though." If Reborn didn't teach Giotto to be calm and not do reckless things, he would be slamming his head against the wall right now, all the while cursing the beings above for his misfortune.

"But this time, I'm taking pity on you so Dame-Tsuna here is also doing half of your paperwork." He's already doing three quarters of your work though, Reborn thought to himself. Tsuna sighed inwardly at the predictable thought from Reborn and so he came prepared for the horrible news. He didn't want to embarrass himself in front of the current Vongola boss. Now that would be unsightly of the captain of Salognov Wodahs.

Guess I'm stuck with paperwork even while I'm training Decimo, thought Tsuna.

Guess I'm stuck with paperwork even though I'm being trained. I hope Tsuna doesn't mind doing my work as well, thought Giotto.

Oh, how neither knew that they'd be getting all-nighters in a row because of those stacks and stacks of paper.
