Katekyo Hitman Reborn: Eleventh's Story!
Target One: My True Self
"Wake up."
What? Who's there?
"You must hurry and wake up, before his time runs out."
His time? Who's?
"Hurry and wake up."
Dad?
Thud!
"Ow…" The young girl woke up on the floor with her feet in the air. She looked on top of her dresser and saw a lion cub with orange flames as it's mane and tail end. "Kero?"
"Akari, are you ok?"A childish voice spoke in the girl's mind.
"Yeah… I'm ok… Sorry, Kero." Akari groaned as she sat up.
"It's time to wake up, Akari. Hurry and get dressed."The voice insisted.
"Ok, Mom." She groaned at the cub as she got to her feet
This is Akari Sawada and she can hear the voice of the cub in her mind. He's her partner in life and they are always together. She's a sixteen year old girl, but there's one thing that some would find old about her. She dresses as a boy due to her father's orders. Her chocolate brown hair is short above her shoulders, making her look like a guy. She's usually mistaken as one whenever she wore these clothes. Due to her cute face, she received many confessions from girls, which were rejected.
"Akari, hurry. I can smell the food already."Kero yawned.
"Ok, ok. I'm ready." She replied as she walked out the door with Kero on her shoulder.
Akari walked through the corridors to reach the kitchen. She lives in a mansion with her parents, mostly because of her father. As you all know, this life is far from normal. And some of you already know why.
"Akari!"
"Crap…" The said girl jumped at the voice and slowly turned to face a grayed-haired old lady. "Good morning, Giovanni."
A squeal came from Akari's mouth as the lady gave her a hug that stopped her lungs from getting fresh air.
"Good morning, my little tomboy!" Giovanni grinned as she realised the poor Vongola girl. Her hands went and touched the young girl's chest. "Those babies still haven't grown yet? How long until they do? They're still baby."
"Giovanni, please let me go." Akari sighed, not caring that she was being touched.
Giovanni let go and sighed, "Akari, you're supposed to get embarrassed when someone touches your chest."
"I don't get embarrassed. It's more like I get annoyed. That's why I hide from you." Akari bluntly explained as Kero hopped off and ran to some bread.
"Hey, Akari. This bread smells amazing! Let's get it with some strawberry jam!"The kitten turned to his master with a pair of begging, orange eyes.
"Sounds good, Kero." Akari smiled as Kero hopped in joy. She looked over at the female chief. "Kero wants those with strawberry jam. I'll get a croissant with an espresso."
"Ok, Princess of Princes and Beast of the Bread. Coming right up." Giovanni giggled as she got a basket ready in a basket. When it was ready, she handed it to the Vongola.
"Thanks for the breakfest. Let's go, Kero." Akari bowed as the small lion hopped on her shoulder. She stood straight and walked out with the basket in her hand.
"I put in their breakfast as well! Make sure they eat it!" Giovanni yelled as she waved good bye from the doorway of the kitchen.
"Okay!" Akari waved as she exited out to the gardens.
"Akari, let's race to our spot!"The lion cub grinned.
"Hmm… you're on!" Akari yelled as she chased Kero to their destination. Threw a passage in the gardens was a hill. At the peak of the hill was a big oak tree that Akari become attached to ever since she found the big oak.
Kero was the first to arrive. "I won!"The cub jumped in joy.
"Congrats, Kero." She smiled as the girl sat in the shade of the tree. The cool breeze blew her chocolate brown hair back as she unpacked their meal. When his food was served, Kero immediately started to eat.
Akari was about to take a bite out of her bread when she sensed two familiar flames behind behind her. "Stop stalking me, Koe, Rin." She spoke.
"Ok, first of all we're not stalking you. We were trying to scare you."
A red haired boy with green eyes, dressed in a school uniform jumped down from the big oak. "And second, good morning, Princess." He winked, noting that he was the one that spoke before.
"Morning, Koe." The Vongola smiled.
A black haired boy dressed in the same uniform appeared from behind the tree. "Sorry, Akari-chan. We wanted to surprize you."
The two boys sat in front of Akari as she pulled out the extra bread from the basket. "That's impossible, Rin. Here, your breakfast." She handed the two boys each a bread.
"Thanks." The redhead smiled as he took a bite. "Not bad."
"Thank you, Akari-chan." Rin smiled.
"Make sure you thank Giovanni after school, ok?" Akari smiled as she finished her bread.
"We're not kids, you know?" Koe said as he grabbed another bread from the basket.
"Ok, Akari-chan." Rin grinned, getting a glare from the redhead.
The Vongola looked over at the city and saw the big clock. "We should probably get going, huh?" She spoke, sipping her coffee.
She almost spit out her drink when she heard Koe's groan. "Do we have to go?" He asked, sounding annoyed.
"Koe." Rin nodded. "We do. School is for learning and we need to learn."
"Let me rephrase that." The redhead noted. "Do I have to go to school?"
"Yes, you do." Akari laughed as she wiped her mouth.
"Why?!" Koe groaned again. "I'm just the principal's assistant. That's not an important job."
"Come on, Koe. School's not that bad." Rin said with bread in his mouth.
"Yeah, school isn't." Koe sighed. "But signing paper and after paper after paper, it gets really annoying and endless."
"Come on, Kero. Time to drop them off at school." Akari told the lion cub.
"Ok." Kero jumped onto her head.
"Fine…" Koe stood up and started to walk away. Rin and the girl looked at each other and smiled before they followed the redhead.
As they walked along the path out of the garden, Rin and Koe put Akari in the middle. She looked sideways at the two of them, annoyed yet happy at the same time.
"They are so overprotective." She thought to herself.
"But they really do care for for you, Akari." Kero smiled from above. "Don't forget, They owe you their lives."
You're right, Kero. Akari slightly nodded her head as she put the basket near the door to the kitchen. That way, the staff could pick it up later today and the four could reuse it for the next day.
The walk to school was silent. Koe and Rin looked out for any dangers or possible threats while they kept the girl close. It's not that Akari didn't appreciate it. No, it's just that she wish she could walk to school with her friends like normal people.
"Who am I kidding? I was never born in the world of normal." She sighed too loudly.
"Princess?" The girl jumped at Koe's voice. She looked up to see his face with no emotion. "What's up?"
"It's nothing." Akari lied, not wanting to trouble them.
"You can't do that, Akari-chan." Rin spoke up. "Don't bottle up your feelings. That's why we, your friends, are here for."
"It's really nothing guys." She insisted.
"They are not gonna believe me. What do I tell them?" Akari sweatdropped until she thought about something. "That's it!"
"I just wondering how my dad is doing since it's been about three weeks. That's all." She brought up a subject that they couldn't talk about at all, and it worked. She mentally apologized to them when they got quiet.
You see, when it came to Akari's father's business travels, no one was supposed to talk about his absence for protection issues. Some men would overhear and attack her home, knowing that the boss wasn't there. That's why it's forbidden unless they were safe inside the mansion.
"We're almost at the school, Akari."Kero told her. "I'm gonna go hide now."
"Okay. See ya later, Kero." Akari said out loud as Kero disappeared in some orange flames.
"Bye, Kero." Koe smiled at the flames on the Vongola's head.
"See ya, Little Guy." Rin waved as the flames began to die. When the flames died, the lion cub was gone. "Hey, Akari. I always wondered where Kero goes when he's not out here with us."
"Oh, that?" Akari thought for a bit. "I think I told you guys, didn't I?"
"No, you didn't. I would have remembered, Princess." Koe told her.
"Oh. Well he hides in my flames, my soul." Once Akari said that, the boys stopped walking.
"What now?!" They asked at the same time.
"I did tell you about it, right? The day my flames awakened?" Akari kept walking as the boys tried to keep up. She was surprised that they never knew about the situation.
"Oh, yeah. Your old man shot you with a Dying Will Bullet, right?" Koe asked.
"Yep and inside that bullet was Kero, who helps me control my powerful flames." The brunette smiled as they turned a corner.
"Hold on!" Rin held up his hands, looking confused and worried. "What's a Dying Will Bullet? It sounds dangerous!"
"The Dying Will Bullet is a special weapon created by the Vongola Famiglia. Once it makes contact with a person, they die. If they feel regret when they were shot, they are reborn with a flame on their forehead. If not, they stay dead." Koe explained.
"Wait what? Akari died!" The trio stopped walking as Rin stared at the girl as if she was a ghost. She just shrugged, knowing that he was forgetful.
"Stupid Jock!" Koe laughed. "Why do you forget everything?"
"Sorry, Koe. Please explain?" Rin begged as he kept staring at Akari.
"Alright." Koe sighed. "The Dying Will Bullet turns all of the person's safety switches off and in exchange for risking their life, they are able to harness great strength. Through regret, the person shot gains overwhelming strength, power and invulnerability. It can also store and release Dying Will Flames; this technique was used by Vongola Settimo with the Dying Will Bullet because his Flames were weak."
"How do you know all of this?" Rin asked, amazed at Koe's knowledge.
"My old man made me study it. Something about if I wish to become Akari's right hand man, I needed to know everything he knows." Koe shrugged, causing the girl to blink at his answer.
"You want to become my right hand man?" Akari asked Koe, shocked.
Koe looked away, smirking. "Who else is gonna keep you out of trouble?"
"Thanks, Koe." She smiled at the redhead.
"But why would your father shoot you with that bullet?" Rin asked, getting the couple's attention.
"Because my flames were burning my insides." The girl explained as the trio reached the street of the school. "My flames were bottled up in my body and couldn't get out, so everyone decided that it would be best if they shot me. But instead of shooting me whenever my flames overpowered me like they usually did, they made Kero."
"Oh, well as long as you're still alive and they don't shoot you with that bullet anymore." Rin sounded relieved, but Akari jumped at his statement.
"Y-Yeah." The Vongola covered her stutter with a cough. "I can't let them know about my training…"
"Akari-chan/Princess?" Rin and Koe looked at me. One was glaring and the other was worried.
"I-" Luckily Akari was saved by some girl squeals.
It's Sawada-kun with Gokudera-kun and Yamamoto-kun! Three girls ran up to trio with grins on their faces, each had on school uniforms like Koe's and Rin's, but theirs were girl uniforms. One had short light brown/pinkish hair. Another had long light brown hair in a side ponytail while the last one had blond hair that reached her shoulder blades.
"Morning, Rada-chan, Fuko-chan, and Habana-chan." Akari smiled at the three girls as they squealed with delight.
"Morning, you three." Koe frowned.
"Morning. How's your morning so far?" Rin grinned.
"Amazing now that we saw you three together!" Habana said with delight.
"Can I leave these two trouble makers with you girls?" Akari asked as she received a glare from Koe.
"Of course! Leave them with us, Sawada-kun!" Rada smiled.
"Thank you." Akari nodded then looked at her two friends. "See you two after school?"
"Yeah, yeah, Princess." Koe looked away, annoyed.
"Gokudera-kun!" Fuko yelled at Koe. "Sawada-san is not a princess! He's a prince!"
"Yeah, that likes guys." He mumbled loud enough so that the girls can hear. When they heard the words, all three girls looked at the poor crossdresser.
"That is true." Akari blushed, looking away. She knew it was the truth, but it made her look… bad.
"Doesn't matter! We will love Sawada-kun no matter what!" Habana yelled as the other two nodded in agreement.
"We will always love you, Sawada-kun!" Fuko slightly blushed.
"Even if you don't like girls! Our feelings will never change!" Rada stated.
"T-Thank you, girls. Anyway, I have to leave. I'm gonna be late." Akari waved as she walked away.
"Bye, Sawada-kun!" The girls waved to the brunette girl as Koe and Rin walked to their school.
"I feel sorry for them… But He told me not to reveal my real gender until the time was right." Akari thought as she entered an alley. After she checked that no one was ne went up to a vending machine and punched in a set of numbers, opening a secret passageway that lead underground.
As the girl walked down the stairs, she heard Kero's laugh. "Akari-chan is popular with both girls and boys!" The lion cub appeared on her right shoulder.
"Oh shut up. That was embarrassing." Akari sighed as she reached the door at the end of the staircase.
The girl stopped herself from grabbing the door handle when she felt a sharp pain in her head. Knowing what it meant, Akari moved to the left side of one door and swung the door open with her back against the wall beside it.
She wasn't surprised when three bullet shots were fired past the doorway. She watched as they hit the stairs, causing three small dents. A sigh escaped her mouth as Akari pushed herself to her feet, away from the wall.
"Dame-Akari. You're getting better at listening to your Hyper Intuition." A man's voice came from the room.
"Well you did teach me how to use it." A smirk appeared on the girl's face as she got ready to walk in. She appeared at the doorway and saw her tutor there, reloading his pistol. "What kind of hell have you prepare for me this time, Uncle Reborn?"
A man dressed in a black suit with a black fedora was in the middle of the room that was open and empty. The shade from his hat hid his brown eyes but not his smirk. "We need to look at your speed."
"Then let's start." Akari smiled as an orange flame appeared on her forehead. "Kero, Change."
"Okay!" Kero giggled as he jumped to her hand and transformed into a sword. This sword was similar to the ones in japan, except it's blade was a glowing orange and the handle was black and a darker shade of orange.
"Ready?" Reborn asked her, excited to see his student ready to face him.
Akari looked at him and readied her sword in front of her. With a calm voice, she replied his question. "Bring on the hell."
"OWWWW!" The Vongola screamed from the pain all over her body. She fell to the ground and began to roll around as the pain continued. Hoping that the cold floor would help her soreness, she continued to roll around until her tutor stopped her with his foot.
"Dame-Akari. How do I get you to master your Hyper Dying Will Mode if you keep overdoing it and pulling your own muscles?" Reborn sighed as a yellow, sparkling flame that came from his gun engulfed the girl, healing her injuries.
Akari spread her arms out as she let the stinging pain heal her injuries. "Sorry, Uncle Reborn… I can't figure out why I do it either…" She told him with a breathless voice.
"No excuses." The man kicked her side, causing a lot of pain to overwhelm her. He only smirked when she screamed in pain again. "Even Tsuna mastered this in less than three days. At this rate it'll take you more than three weeks."
"Well sorry if I'm not like my father." She pouted. Another kick from Reborn came to her side yet again. "OWWWW! Dammit, Uncle Reborn!"
The said man picked up his leg again, readying to kick her again. "What was that, Dame-Akari?"
"N-Nothing…" Akari stuttered in fear as he lowered his foot.
As you all know, Reborn isn't really her uncle, but she always called him that since she was little. He used to be her father's tutor but now it was her time to experience Hell- I mean, tutoring lessons. Also he's the reason why Akari dress as a boy. Since she was her father's daughter, many people would come after her, knowing she was a girl. So Reborn thought if he trained her like a male, she would be able to fend for herself. Of course, this only applies to her training and such. Whenever she's with her friends, Akari could dress, act, and be a girl.
"There. How do you feel?" Reborn asked as his student slowly sat up.
"Better. Thanks, Uncle Reborn." Akari replied with a smile to her teacher. Although she frowned when she saw her clothes. The clothes were covered with rips and dirt.
"Go change." Reborn told her as she looked up at him. "We have to meet with your father."
Shock came to the girl. "Papa's back? Yay!" Akari stood up, ignoring the little stinging pain and feeling happier about the new news that she just heard.
"Yes, he's back. Hurry and get dressed, but as a girl."
"Eh? Why?" Akari asked, confused. He was actually telling her to dress like a girl this time which he has never done before.
"Because our enemies are aware that you're female. My plan failed, but you're able to fight well for yourself. You're not working anymore, so it's fine." He shrugged, unfazed that his plan didn't work.
"You don't even care!" She yelled, but was happy either way. "Well, at least, I can act like my true self now."
"Hurry and change." He smacked behind her head. "There's already some clothes for you in the dressing room, on top of the couch."
"Ow! Ok, ok. Going now." Akari ran away with Kero in her arms. She basically skipped to the room as she hummed a song she always sung.
The Vongola entered the room and saw her outfit. A white button up shirt was in the frame of the chair over an orange pleated skirt. White stockings and brown shoes were on the seat with a pink sweater on the left arm of the chair.
"You gotta be kidding me!" Akari giggled as she looked at the clothes. She blinked when she realised that she needed to shower first.
Once she was done drying herself from the shower, Akari hurried to put on the clothes. She raced to the mirror beside the couch and giggled at her reflection. "They fit perfectly!"
A knock at the door surprised the Vongola as she jumped three feet in the air. Once she recovered, she took a deep breath before she spoke again. "C-Come in!"
A girl with light pink haired girl entered the room. She had on a white tank top with white shorts. Over them was a sky blue vest that reached her thighs. A magenta bow was found close to her neck and a matching belt was around her waist with a yellow star as the buckle. White sleeves were on her arms and her feet were covered with matching magenta boots that reached halfway to her knees.
"Ayumi!" Akari said surprised at the arrival of the girl.
Ayumi is the daughter of the mafia don of the Chiavarone, Dino. She's his heir and will soon become the next boss of the Chiavarone Famiglia, Chiavarone Undicesimo. She was also Reborn's student, but she already graduated from his lessons a long time ago. She was like a big sister for the Vongola, always being kind and caring as well as always looking out for her.
"Hi, Akari. Long time no see." Ayumi smiled.
"Five months is too long." Akari hugged the girl as laughter escaped their mouths. They separated and the Vongola began to question her arrival. "What are you doing here?"
"To do your hair." she smiled.
A pink ribbon that matched her sweater held half of Akari's hair back in a small ponytail. It was weird for the Vongola to have her hair up in such a fashion, but she didn't hate it. Akari walked with Ayumi and Uncle Reborn through the secret underground passageway to the mansion.
"Remember, don't shake their hands. You curtsy, ok?" Ayumi reminded the Vongola as they walked.
"No, hands. Yes, curtsy." Akari told herself, trying to get it stuck to her head.
After listening to Ayumi, Akari found out that her father has guest with him in his office and she was to know how to properly introduce herself as a female. Since she was always introduced as a male, this was very new to the Vongola.
"Man, this is so opposite from from what I already know." Akari muttered to herself, but the two mafioso heard.
"Because you used to act like a boy." Reborn smirked.
"Whose fault was that?" Akari barked back, but she began to shiver when she felt something cold was pressed against the back her head.
"What was that, Dame-Akari?" Reborn asked with a hint of annoyance.
Akari panicked until she saw a shadow figure ahead. "Who is that?" She asked as she pointed at the figure.
"Daddy!" Ayumi was the first to recognize the man and ran ahead. She jumped in the man's arms and hugged the famous Dino.
"Ayumi, behave yourself." Dino told her, but the smile on his face was just as bright as his daughter's. He looked at the two behind his daughter and nodded his head. "Akari, Reborn. I'm here to escort you all to Tsuna."
"Thank you, Uncle Dino." Akari nodded. As you can see, she calls him with that title as well.
"Akari, you look cute as a girl." Dino smiled at me.
"Thanks." Akari blushed as she walked passed him and his daughter. "Let's go. Papa will be worried."
"Ah! Let me get that." Dino said as he ran ahead of Akari and went to open the door. However when Dino turned the doorknob, the door didn't open. This caused Dino to face plant against the door.
"Daddy!" Ayumi ran to her father, wanting to help him. However with the blood in her veins, Ayumi tripped over nothing and landed on the poor man.
"Like father, like daughter." Reborn sighed.
"Yeah.."
Akari stood outside the door to her father's office. She took a deep breath and opened the doors, walking inside with the three behind her.
Book shelves filled with books and binders covered the walls. Two long couches were filled with people sitting on them. Instantly, they stood when the girl entered the room.
"Why are they all looking at me?" Akari questioned in her mind as all eyes were on her. She looked over and gasped at the sight of the desk at the other side of the room.
A man with gravity-defying brown hair that she inherited from was sitting at the desk with his chocolate brown eyes staring into her matching ones.
If you haven't figure out who her father is, then here's your introduction. Tsunayoshi Sawada, Vongola Decimo, is Akari's father. He's the mafia boss of the number one famiglia, the Vongola Famiglia. And Akari is his successor, Vongola Undicesimo. It took everything in her will to not run to her father's arms and to give him a big hug.
Of course, she had to remember the other people in the room.
"H-Hello, everyone." I bowed then looked at everyone in the eye. "My name is Akari Sawada, Daughter of Vongola Decimo, Tsunayoshi Sawada." She nodded as Her cub appeared on her right shoulder. "And this my partner, Keroberos."
"Akari, I'm getting kind of nervous." Kero whispered in his master's mind.
"You and me both." She responded, hoping that this could all end.
The first man to approach the young Vongola was a white-haired with a weird purple tattoo under his left eye. He wore a white suit with some silver. Akari knew that she knew the man, but couldn't remember from where.
"So you're Tsunayoshi-kun's daughter? You look a lot like him!" The strange man smiled. "You can call me Byakuran. I'm the boss of Gesso Famiglia."
"Nice to meet you, Byakuran." Akari nodded as she was about to extend her hand for a handshake but froze. She remembered what she was just told and pulled her arm under her stomach, crossing her legs. She barely bent her knees and curtsied.
"What a curtsy! Very unique!" Byakuran clapped his hands as the girl stood straight. He didn't notice the relief that was hidden in her features.
"Byakuran," A man with red hair and red eyes stepped forward. "Can we introduce ourselves?"
Behind him was a boy with a darker red hair then the tall man, but the same eyes. He looked around Akari's age, but older. She stared at the boy, because he looked familiar, but this feeling was different from the one she had from Byakuran. It was almost like she knew him from somewhere else.
"This boy…" Akari thought. "He's… Oh yeah! He's-!"
"Oh, goodness. I should've brought Chiedere!" Byakuran exclaimed, knocking the girl out of her thoughts.
Akari heard her father's laughter and she instantly wanted to go to him. He was gone for so long that she wanted to reunite with him. However, the man with red hair approached her, so she couldn't go to her father.
"My name is Enma Kozato. I'm the tenth boss of the Simon Famiglia. This is my son, Shinko Kozato. He's one year older than you and he also will become the eleventh boss of the Simon Famiglia." They both bowed after Enma was done.
"Nice to me you both." Akari curtsied again and looked as Shinko came up to her.
The redhead teen gently grabbed her hand and got down on one knee. "The pleasure is mine." He kissed her hand, causing the girl to blush madly.
"This boy… Ah! I can't stop staring at him!" His odd eyes were locked on her own, keeping her from looking away. "He's still holding my hand! He can probably feel my heartbeat getting faster! Ahhh! What do I do?!"
"Eh… Dame-Akato has a crush."
The blush vanished as Akari recognized the voice she disliked. She let out a sigh as she looked at the source of the voice, pulling her hand away. The next boss of the Varia Squad and Uncle Xanxus' son, Hirito Natsume, was smirking at her from the other couch.
"I thought I felt your Wrath." Akari turned her attention to the raven haired boy.
"Don't hate what you can't manipulate." The boy raised his hand and the flame of wrath appeared. "Wanna go?"
"Anytime-!" Akari smirked, but she remembered where she was. Knowing her father was glaring at her, Akari smiled innocently. "But to be honest, I don't want to fight now. I have some guest that I must meet."
"Hirito, stop messing around and Akato."
Xanxus told his son as he sat at the end of the couch, near to the right side of my father's desk. He looked at the girl and frowned. "Hurry up and introduce yourself to this lady so I can leave." He closed his eyes, not wanting to see the girl anymore.
"R-Right, Xanxus-san…" Akari stuttered as she saw a women with a white mushroom-like head dress and cape, sitting down on the other couch in front of Xanxus. The Vongola girl walked up to her and curtsied. "Hello."
"No need for that. I'm Yuni, Tenth Giglio Nero Boss. Nice to meet you, Akari-chan." She smiled, warmly.
"Yes!" The girl teen returned Yuni's smile with her own.
"Everyone, I wish to speak with my daughter alone."
The said girl jumped at the man's voice. She turned and looked at her father who had spoken. "Papa?"
Tsuna looked at the others in the room, not even looking at his daughter. "Please enjoy your stay here in the Vongola Mansion. If there is something you need, please inform the maids and they will surely assist you."
Everyone nodded and they all walked out the room as Akari stood there, looking at her father who didn't look back at her. Once they were alone, he finally looked at his daughter.
"Papa…?" Akari swallowed as she waited for him to say something.
Tsuna finally smiled and stood with open arms. "I can feel your impatience all over the room. Can I get my hug now? Come here, Aka-chan."
Excitement took over Akari's body as she jumped over the large desk and hugged him. "Papa!" She smiled, knowing that she was free to act like her usual self.
"I'm home." Tsuna laughed as he hugged his daughter back. "Sorry that I took so long."
"Nuh uh." Akari shook her head. "It's fine. Welcome home."
Her father was back, she was able to publicly reveal her gender, and she was now free from her work. She was happy, but it won't last for long. The reason for that is…
… Akari had an enemy the day her flames had awakened.
Hope you all enjoyed this rewrite! Review!
