Author's Note: This is my first attempt at Katekyo Hitman Reborn! fic writing. So, you've been warned.


Sawada Tsunayoshi sat at the table in the middle of his bedroom as he did his homework with Gokudera Hayato and Yamamoto Takeshi. Outside, the sun was beginning to set.

Yamamoto closed his notebook and turned to Tsuna. "I better get going. My dad is expecting me soon."

Gokudera stood up as well. "Same here. See you tomorrow, Juudiame!"

"Bye, Yamamoto, Gokudera-kun." Tsuna closed his own notebook as the two other boys left the room and wondered what he should do.

Reborn had some important business in Italy and departed the day before. Nana and Bianchi took I-pin, Lambo, and Fuuta to a movie that was showing that night. Therefore, that left the young brunet all alone in the house until the previous group of people returned.

To pass the time, Tsuna begun playing a video game.

In the middle of one of the major levels, Tsuna heard the front door downstairs open and close. Shrugging it off, he assumed it was his mother and the other people that resided in the Sawada house. However, suddenly, the door to Tsuna's room opened abruptly to reveal a frazzled Basil and Reborn sitting on his shoulder, a shadow hiding his black eyes.

"Sawada-dono," Basil gasped out, his eyes wide.

Tsuna stood up, the game forgotten. "Basil-kun? Reborn? What's going on?"

Basil and Reborn glanced at each other and back at the brunet. "We have bad news," answered the chibi with a fedora and a shape-shifting chameleon named Leon.

Tsuna stepped back, the idea of bad news making him wary. "What is it?" The brunet wasn't sure he actually wanted to know, but he assumed that it wasn't something that could be avoided.

As Basil broke the bad news, he stared at the ground, his face also hidden with a shadow. "Master is dead."


If I was you, I would have sensed the awkwardness of it. Sorry. Mostly giving it a try right now. I have many ideas for more Reborn fics, but I first want the fandom's opinion. Should I continue trying to break out of this awkwardness in the Reborn fic world or stick with Twilight? Here is an idea I have for another fic. It'll be an one-shot.
There are times when you just realize everything isn't fun and games, even at a young age. Lambo one day comes to this realization and decides to do the only thing he can do. Just be himself.
Opinions? Btw, this here is an one-shot. I sometimes tend to leave an ending that will make the reader what happens after. Well, that's my goal mostly. I like to take breaks from stories or anime to think about what I think will happen next. So, that's what I do here. I try to make you think about it. =D Reviews are appreciated.
