Tsuna sat at his desk and waited for class to start. Gokudera and Yamamoto were arguing about something. Well… more like Gokudera was yelling at Yamamoto and Yamamoto was just laughing it off. Tsuna smiled. It was nice to have friends.
Suddenly the door swung wide open. All eyes were on the person who entered. He had short black hair with straight slant bangs and white streaks. His eyes skimmed the classroom and landed on Tsuna. He swiftly walked up to Tsuna and looked at him. Tsuna sunk back on his seat. Something about this person scared him. The boy frowned.
"Weak." Those words left his lips and hit Tsuna like a bullet. Tsuna knew he was weak and no good. He didn't need a total stranger to say it to his face. Gokudera glared at the black haired teen.
"What's your problem? Apologize to the tenth!" he screamed at the boy. The boy looked over at Gokudera. Gokudera started to shout insults at the boy and demanded an apology. The boy groaned.
"You're so annoying." Tsuna sweatdropped. It was a bad idea to mess with Gokudera. Gokudera looked at the boy in anger and whipped out his bombs.
"How dare you!" he screamed as he lit them and threw them at the boy. With a swift action of his arm, the boy cut the bombs in have and snipped the fuse out. The boy stared at Tsuna then back at Gokudera. The boy sighed and lifted his hands up.
"How can such a weak boy possibly be a Mafioso." He sighed. Tsuna's jaw dropped. He knew? Yamamoto laughed.
"Are you part of the mafia Game?" he chirped. The boy blinked at Yamamoto. The boy did a face palm.
"Is the Vongola full of idiots?" he asked himself. Gokudera glared at the boy. Who was he to be rude to the tenth generation boss and make fun of the Vongola. He was going to die. Gokudera was about to whipped out more dynamites but was stopped by Tsuna.
"Gokudera-kun! If you do that you'll blow up the school and Hibari will surely kill us! And you're making a scene!" he yelled. True that majority of the class was looking at them. Gokudera glared at the black haired stranger but put his dynamites away.
The teacher walked into the classroom. He blinked when he saw an unfamiliar head among the crowd.
"Excuse me sir." The teacher called for the teen's attention. The boy stared at the teacher.
"Are you suppose to be in this class?" he asked. The boy stared blankly at the teacher.
"No." he replied. The teacher sighed.
"Then I suggest you leave this classroom and held for your class." The boy sighed and walked out of the classroom. Tsuna sighed in relieve when the teen was gone. But he couldn't help but wonder who that was.
The boy wondered around in the hall. First day of school. Like I'm gonna even bother showing up. He thought as he turned to a new hallway. The boy yawned. I'm getting tired. Maybe I should find a place a sleep. The boy let his legs take him wherever it felt like going and he found himself in front of a room labeled Reception room. Something about the room yelled danger to him so he just walked away.
The boy thought back to when he found Tsuna. The boy sighed. And I am to work for him? He's so weak. He'll end up dragging me down. Okay Akai pull yourself together. You're an intel gatherer. Give the kid a chance to prove himself. Caught up in his thoughts Akai bumped into something, or rather someone, and fell forward sending the other person down with him.
Akai groaned as he got up. He looked down at who he bumped into. Akai's mouth formed an 'o' as he discovered he ran into no other than the mighty Hibari. Hibari growled and got up sending Akai tumbling back on the ground.
"Herbivore. Skipping class? I'll bite you to death." With that said Hibari pulled out his tonfas and ran towards Akai. Akai brushed himself off and stared at Hibari. Hibari slammed his tonfa right onto Akai's head. A dull thud was heard. Hibari blinked in surprise. For everyone else it would have cracked their skull open, but for this teen it just made a 'thud' sound. Hibari didn't think much of it and swung for another hit. But his tonfa got caught. Hibari's eyes widened slightly. Akai caught the incoming tonfa with his hand. Akai sighed. His head was bleeding from the hit Hibari impacted on him earlier. It didn't crack his skull but hey, it still hurt to some extent.
"Now now Hibari. It's been fun but there's one thing you should know." With that said Akai pushed the tonfa back so hard, it caused Hibari to lose his balance and get sent flying into a nearby wall. Akai smiled at him.
"I loathe violence." He said. A dark aura surrounded him while he said that. With that Akai disappeared as he turned a corner. Hibari took off after him but when he rounded a corner Akai had already disappeared. A smirk formed on Hibari's face.
"Interesting herbivore." He said. Hibari walked back into the Reception Room.
Akai yawned. Reborn had told him to wait outside the gate to discuss something with him. Akai heard movement to his left and ducked. A bullet buried itself in the wall where Akai's head was a second ago. Reborn came out of the bush in…wait… Reborn wasn't wearing anything except a leaf covered his vital region. Akai sweatdropped.
"What kind of outfit is that?" he dared to ask. Reborn smirked.
"You're sensed are sharp. You would make a good guardian." He said. Akai waved his hand.
"Mah... Reborn, you know I don't like violence." He said. Reborn's eye glint and his smirk widened. Akai shivered.
"That is obviously a lie." He said. Akai stared at Reborn.
"What are you talking about? Violence does nothing but hurt people." He told Reborn. Reborn frowned.
"This doesn't have anything to do with what happened 4 years ago does it?" he asked. Akai suddenly found looking at the ground very interesting. Seemed like Reborn could see through Akai's head and deep into his mind. Akai's hand found its way to the locket around his neck. Reborn nodded.
"I thought so." He said. Akai 'tched' and turned his head toward the sky.
"That Tsuna kid. Why do I get the feeling that he's weak without his dying will flame?" he asked Reborn. Reborn's eyes glistened.
"It seems like nothing gets by you." He said. Akai frowned.
"What do you expect from me?" he pouted. Reborn frowned.
"Dame-Tsuna is tougher than he seems." Akai nodded.
"If only he managed to look tougher."
"Let's not ask for miracles Invisible Assassin." Reborn said. Akai groaned.
"Don't say that. I hate that name." he growled. Reborn smirked. Out of the corner of his eye he spotted Tsuna and the others.
"Looks like they've arrived." Akai said while stretching.
Tsuna froze when he saw the teen talking to Reborn. Oh no. Sounds like more trouble.
Reborn took this opportunity to drop kick Tsuna.
"Dame-Tsuna just in time. I want you to meet the new addition to the family. Akai I.A." he said while jumping on Tsuna.
Tsuna shot up from his place on the ground.
"New addition?" he cried. Gokudera stood in front of Tsuna.
"I refuse to let this rude being into the family!" he cried. Reborn kicked Gokudera.
"Akai is famous among the Mafia family." He told Gokudera. Akai sighed.
"Codename is I.A. Ring a bell?" he asked poking Gokudera on the head. Gokudera thought long and hard. Then suddenly it seemed like he managed to put two and two together.
"THE famous I.A?" he cried. Akai sighed. This was annoying. Reborn smirked. Akai wondered how many times a day Reborn spent smirking.
"He is a valuable addition to the Vongola." Akai hung his head.
"I'd wish you stop talking as if I'm an item one must possess." He said. Gokudera glared at Akai.
"I thought you worked with that stupid Varia family." He cried. Akai looked at him as if he was dumb.
"The Varia is part of the Vongola too you dumbtoad." He said. This lead to Gokudera lighting his fuse and throwing bombs at Akai. After many explosions later. Gokudera looked around.
"Did I manage to get him?" he cried. Reborn kicked Gokudera.
"Stupid fool. Akai ran away already." He said. Gokudera cried out in frustration.
Akai panted. Note to self. Stay away from Gokudera. Akai looked at the note in his hands. Reborn had set up Akai to live in this apartment. Akai groand. Wasn't this address deathly close to the infamous Hibari's house. And by deadly close Akai meant right next to him. Akai silently cursed Reborn out while arriving to this new house.
So now Akai want to live here with as little sound as possible so that Hibari won't discover where Akai lived. Reborn already has Akai living under a fake name, as Akai had pratically begged for. Now Akai owed Reborn one. In fact Akai owe Reborn a lot. Making sure Hibari wasn't anywhere near, Akai quickly opened the door to his new home and practically locked himself in it.
"Why do I have a feeling that I'll regret ever coming to Japan?" Akai asked himself. Akai just shrugged and walked off to his bedroom.
"Screw dinner." Akai grumbled as his head hit the pillow. Akai immediately went to sleep.
Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring Ring
Akai growled and was about to chuck his alarm clock out the window when he realized that it would upset Hibari enough to go to his house to bite him to death. Akai just took out it's batteries and went back to sleep.
"Who cares about school?" he asked himself as he fell asleep. Hibari didn't know he lived here and he was already at school so it was all good. Little did he know Reborn had spare keys.
"Wake up." Akai was greeted with a kick in the face. Akai winced at the strength of Reborn's kick and shot up.
"That's for letting your guard down." Reborn said with a smirk. Akai groaned.
"It's morning give me a break." He grumbled. Reborn frowned.
"It's school time. I will not have you cutting the whole school year." He said as he snapped his fingers. Akai suddenly found himself being manhandled by Bianca.
"What the hell? Let go of me Bianca!" Akai cried. Bianca shook her head.
"I'm doing this for Reborn!" she said as hearts appeared in the background. Akai sweatdropped. Reborn smirked.
"Now help him shower and put on his clothes." Reborn said. Akai struggled against Bianca who was starting to undress him.
"Gah! Ok ok ok! You win! I'll do this myself!" he cried. Reborn signaled for Bianca to stop and Akai sighed in relief.
"I hate you sometimes." He growled as he got into the bathroom. Reborn smirked.
"I know you do."
After taking a nice clean bath and fixing his school uniform, Akai ran downstairs and into the kitchen. Bianca was there.
"Eat this." Bianca told him, holding out what looked like pancakes covered in bugs and purple substance. Akai paled.
"Ummm….Oh look at the time! I guess it's time for me to go learn!" Akai said as he grabbed his bag and ran out of his house. Bianca sighed dreamingly.
"They grow up so fast right Reborn?" she asked. Reborn just sipped on his coffee.
"Let's have another one." She said. Reborn took this time slowly walk away.
"I'm going to check on Dame-Tsuna." He said.
Akai made it to class with a few seconds to spare. The teacher looked strangely at him.
"Are you the new student?" he inquired. Akai nodded.
"Where were you yesterday?" the teacher asked. Akai thought about it.
"I got into a small accident with Hibari." He said. That was enough for the teacher to let him off the hook.
"Very well that. Would you please introduce yourself to the class?" the teacher asked. Akai shrugged and looked a the class.
"Yo. My name is Akai." He said. The teacher sighed.
"Very well then. Please take a seat next to the empty desk with dents on them." The teacher told him. Akai walked up to the desk that had noticeable dents on them and shivered. They reminded him of someone. Taking his seat he looked at the girl next to him.
"Mind telling me who sits there?" he asked. 'I'm going to regret asking.' He thought. The girl trembled a little. Looks like the thought of the person scared her. Before she opened her mouth to speak, the door of the classroom opened. Akai dropped his head, trying to hide his face.
"Crap I knew it." He whispered to himself.
Before the class stood Hibari. Hibari looked around the class and went to his seat. Hibari noticed the person who was trying desperately to hide his face and head from Hibari. Hibari glared at the binder that Akai put between them to hide his face.
"Who are you?" he asked coldly. Akai didn't want to create a scene so he sighed and put his binder down. Hibari smirked.
"So it's you." He said coolly. Akai looked and him and blinked.
"I'm going to hate this year." He grumbled and he put his head down and his hands on the back of his head in defeat.
But to Hibari, this was going to be an interesting year.
