Prologue:
"Mama, I'm home!" Tsuna yelled as he dumped his school bag on his bedroom floor.
He quickly headed to the kitchen and found his mother setting the table.
"Tsu-kun, you're early! Did you have fun with your friends?" She asked.
Tsuna sighed, and smiled, "Yeah."
Nana smiled at her son, and said, "Go change out of your uniform, then. Dinner will be ready in ten minutes."
Tsuna nodded, and headed upstairs.
He sat on the bed, and pulled off his tennis shoes and socks.
"Dame Tsuna!"
A high-pitched voice shouted, before Tsuna felt a sharp pain on the back of his head.
"R-reborn! What ever was that for?" Tsuna yelled.
The fedora-wearing infant smirked.
"Just," He prompted, and quickly rushed out the room.
Tsuna stared after him, and sighed.
He turned around, and sat against the wall.
He tilted his head, and stared out the window.
Outside, rain splattered the ground, and it's steady and hushed clapping filled the night.
Huh? Tsuna thought, his head suddenly whipping to the left, I think I saw something…
A glow caught his attention, and he squinted.
Tsuna stood up, and walked towards it.
W-what's this…? He thought.
Almost as if in hidden, a small black wooden box sat besides the picture of the Halloween party last year.
He picked it up and ran his fingers along its smooth and cool surface.
Tsuna frowned at the mysterious box.
Slowly, he worked his fingers around it, and examined every detail.
"What if it's a bomb…?" He thought, panic rising within him.
"No, no," he said to himself, "I would've felt something off with my Hyper Intuition…"
He bit his lips thoughtfully.
His curiosity was nagging at his nerves, and he glanced down at the small box.
One small peek won't do any damage… he thought, his fingers lifting the lid.
He opened the box.
A swirl of wind smacked him, and he jerked back, aware of the searing pain on his face.
Tsuna looked at the box, astonished.
For a moment, he imagined he saw bloodied claws reaching out and seizing him, choking out his life.
He recovered quickly, and looked inside the box.
Inside, a glass vial resided within a comfy interior.
In the glass, a glowing orange liquid illuminated his whole room, giving the impression of a power outage on his entire house.
Tsuna's lips parted, and he rasped, "W-what the…?"
His hands trembled, but he reached out for the liquid, and took off the cork.
In small, golden-red, shiny letters, a message was imprinted on the liquid.
Dear Tsunayoshi-kun,
If you are reading this, it means you discovered my plea and I am no longer available.
I'm sorry I can't tell you more, but we are been watched.
You do not know me-
The previous words disappeared as he kept reading, and new ones formed.
-but don't worry.
Please, I beg you, forgive me for such cryptic writing.
Tsunayoshi-kun, drink this that I have sent you.
If you do not, I fear your friends might be in real danger.
And I don't mean Mafia related…Oh, I do not threatened!
I didn't mean for it to sound menacing, my friend.
But please…go with the flow.
Eternally Yours,
Yojava-san.
Tsuna stared as the last words faded back into the strange water.
Sweat clung to his back and forehead.
"What should I do…?" He asked.
He looked at the orange glowing juice and wondered why Reborn hadn't yet appeared as he always does.
Wait… Tsuna's eyes widened in alarm, What if it's already happening? What if this Yojava person is for real?
"Dame Tsuna, I'm right here." Reborn's voice echoed.
Tsuna wheeled around and sighed in relief, "Reborn! What are you…?"
His voice trailed off.
Reborn stood in the doorway, his baby features long gone.
As were his clothes.
"P-put some clothes on!" Tsuna blushed.
Reborn smirked, placed his hands on his hips, and spread his legs wide, leaning against the door.
"Nah," He said, his smirk widening.
Tsuna's face turned different shades of pink, and steam drifted out his ears.
"REBORN!" He growled.
Reborn grinned, and chuckled.
"Yeah, yeah, fine…" Reborn looked around Tsuna's room, said, "Don't think your clothes fit me."
Tsuna sighed annoyed.
"Take Lemitsu's," he said, "They're a bit baggy, but you'll be all right."
Reborn nodded, and headed out the room.
Tsuna sighed, worn out.
The vial caught his attention, once again.
…I… He thought, I trust her, this stranger. Don't know why, but perhaps I should drink it. Afterall, Reborn does say to go with your gut feeling.
He smiled sheepishly, and placed the glass against his lips.
The liquid smelled like mangoes with a hint of orange.
Tsuna gulped it down, the fluid sliding down his throat slowly, as if he were drinking a smoothie.
"Well…," He said aloud, "That wasn't so bad-"
The walls expanded outwards, the floor crumpled, the ceiling swelled, and the sky was falling.
Tsuna fell into a black hole, and pain burned his chest.
He fell unconscious.
It's quite long, is it not? Not to worry, my chapters won't be as large, my friends. Please Review! Oh, and folks, I've put on hold my stories "Tsuna Epic Fail" n "KHR Interview."
I am still writing Hueco Mundo Madness, so no se apuren, ok?
