This is originally a story retold with the available scenes from the anime. Hence readers will find a lot of similarities on this fic and the scenes from the original anime series. See my profile for the summary for the future chapters :).

For those who had been reading my fic all these while, thank you. It's advisable for you to read the main chapters of "The Variation of Destiny S1: The Beginning" before you read these special chapters. These special chapters will act as the bridge to the plot of season 2. There are a total of ten chapters split into three parts about Tsuna, Gray and Lucy respectively.

Once again, Tsuna is based on Edo-Natsu. In this fic, he is the twin brother of Natsu.

As I was writing this chapter, I truly find it hard to write on the feeling of the character. This seemed to be the best I can go. Reviews are appreciated.

Chapter 1: Tsuna's loneliness

He did not know. He did not know since when he had changed. He did not know since when he no longer trust anybody. He did not know since when he had lost his alternate personality disorder.

He did not know how he went through that fateful day. All he heard was they have accomplished their mission successfully so he rushed to meet Ciel at the meeting point and to thank the Lucy and the group who had taken down the Kingdom Empire. But when he reached he did not see them celebrating their victory. They were all quiet. He saw Lucy in tears of despair. Happy was dejected. And there was this guy who he thought was familiar and he was topless, he knew he saw him coming but he was not sure if it was his imagination. He was avoiding eyes contact with him. Everyone was ignoring him.

"What had happened?" He thought. The atmosphere felt very stiff. He found very hard to breathe there. Who can answer his query? Tsuna looked around and he saw a man with blue hair with a very weird tattoo on his right eye approaching him. At the moment, he felt very uneasy. He got a very bad feeling when he asked for his identity and had something to tell him.

The man introduced himself as Jellal Fernandes, one of the famous Wizard Saints from the Magic Council. He led him to a dark room where he saw someone lying on the bed right in the middle of the room. As the room was dark; he could not make out who the person was. His instinct told him to get out of the room. As he turned to his back, Jellal placed his hand on his shoulder. He wanted to run away from him. He did not want to hear what he had to say. His mind told him that if he did not get out of the room now, he was going to regret. Tsuna was full of fear.

"I'm sorry." Was what he said to him.

"Why was he saying sorry to me? He did not do anything wrong. In fact they succeeded in their mission."

His eyes widened by the time Jellal had finished his words and he left him alone in the room. He told him someone had lost his life during the mission. By right, he was not supposed to be involved. Who was that someone? Ahh, he avoided hearing his name. Was he even listening to what Jellal had to say? He never bothered to listen when others were talking most of the time, isn't it?

He stared at the lifeless form. Why was he so familiar to him? Tears welled up his eyes before he even noticed. He reached for his bruised face. He was all beat-up. Why? He wasn't supposed to be here? He was supposed to be wandering around having fun enjoying his break from mission. Why was he lying out here in the cold? Tsuna touched his face and kneeled on the ground as he let out an agonising cry.

"Brother!"

Tsuna could not help it. He did what he could, trying to wake his brother up. He must be sleeping right? His brother did not even flinch when he tried to wake him up.

"Who did this to him? Kingdom Empire? It must be! "

"He died from the shock of the damages from the Organic Link Magic when my teammate destroyed the lacrimas linked to him after being drained of magic power in a short period of time." Tsuna recalled that Jellal had already told him the details which he was not even listening. Tsuna cried over his twin's lifeless body in despair.

So this was the reason why he was feeling so frustrated. His twin brother. Natsu was suffering from the torture Kingdom Empire had inflicted on him all these while. He must be in a lot of pain before he died. This was the link between the twins. He could feel it when his twin was suffering and he felt very lonely all the sudden. That must be the moment when Natsu breathed his last.

He could not accept it. Hence, he went on a rampage on his funeral. He just could not accept that his brother had left him all alone in this world.

For the past year Tsuna could not face the reality. It took him a long time before he came to his grave. That time, he had just graduated and he had broken up with Ciel. He was in despair and he could not trust anybody enough to share his feeling with.

Jellal had taken him in as his disciple as he could see that he had potential and talent in magic. Tsuna just wanted to master magic so that he could be a mage like his twin brother was when he was alive. He was determined to wipe out all the dark guild in the world so that no one else would suffer like he did.

Tsuna realized that he had been too dependant on his brother who had been watching over him, working hard to support him in his studies when he was alive.

"Now he really left me in the lurch. He is selfish after all. No, I was the one who is selfish. I was the one who left him alone in Fairy Tail since Dad and Mum died just because I don't wish to be compared to him. " Tsuna finally understood his brother's feeling of loneliness.

He went on a mission one day with Erza and Gray. They were fighting members of a dark guild when he heard something very wrong. Apparently, the Mastermind who was behind the Kingdom Empire incident and who was responsible for his brother's death had escaped from the prison.
