Chapter 1

Memory of the Mist

Holding the files of report for her boss in her right hand, Chrome knocked on the door to Tsuna's office. She just got back from a mission in Greece, a recoinnaisance mission to investigate on the activities of the Mondre Family. There had been circulating rumors within the mafia that said Family has been instigating the sale of human organs obtained from kidnapping homeless people among developing countries. And with Chrome, such issue is close to her heart that she immediately volunteered herself to take up the mission. After 3 days worth of investigating and gathering for information on Mondre Family, Chrome deduced it positive that the family has been the perpetrator of said crimes.

Chrome knocked three times on the large and elegantly designed wooden door when he heard her boss call her from inside.

"Come in"

Chrome opened the door and made her way to the brunette sitting on his office chair, holding a bunch of paper on his hands, his eyes furiously reading the material at hand.

"Oh Hello Chrome, welcome back" Tsuna looked up to her guardian, a warm smile plastered on his face. Despite the fact that he had been sleepless and restless these past days due to the amount of paperworks he has to finish, Chrome cannot help but marvel at how his smile never ceases to be charming.

"I'm here Bossu. Here is my report." She handed him the files which she gladly took and set it on the right side of his desk, where he put it on top of an already towering stock of papers.

Tsuna accepted the report like he just received a present for Christmas. "Thanks Chrome. I take it you have discovered essential information?" he inquired, shifting to his business tone.

Chrome nodded "Yes, it's positive, the Mondre Famiglia is behind the underground organ market that involves kidnapping in some parts of Asia and Africa. They specifically target countries who are high in poverty rates and illegal settlers and makes it their business to rid of these people by taking them and putting thir organs for sale." Chrome added grimly.

Tsuna's face turned to a look of disgust. He turned to look at his Mist Guardian who gave an equal look of loathing to people who are capable of doing such inhumane actions. "Don't worry anymore Chrome, I'll personaly see to it the end of their business." He reassured his guardian.

Chrome turned a hopeful and reassured smile. "Thank you, Bossu."

"Now, why don't you head back to your room, Chrome? I know you want to take some rest off after your mission."

"Yes, I will go ahead Bossu." Chrome gave a slight bow and turned to leave Tsuna's office but she stopped and gave her boss one last look.

"Uhmm, Bossu?"

"Yes Chrome?"

"Make sure you get enough rest too."

"Yes, thank you."

Inside her room, Chrome immediately went to the bathroom and refreshed her self. After an hour of shower and pampering, the Mist Guardian proceeded to consume a healthy snack of vegetable salad and fruit juice set on her bedside table which the maid prepared for her (Chrome went to ask one of the kitchen staff for it before heading to her room). She fell into a deep sleep after.

Nagi, young at 13 years old, was walking along the neighborhood streets from her school when she came across a group of 3 mean-looking girls who appeared to be in their 3rd year of Middle School. One of the girls spotted her, stopped for a moment and without hesitation pushed her that Chrome landed on her back.

"What? You have something to complain about?" The girl who pushed her asked was seething and looking at her with pure hatred.

Another girl, with the short curly hair asked "Ohh, who is this Mi-chan?" she said interestingly.

The other girl, her hair long and in a ponytail followed "She loooooks weak" she said in singsong voice.

The one who pushed her, Mi-chan, spoke "Deserves it. This girl, she stole my Tetsuo-kun from me. She's a flirt."

The curly hair widened her eyes in interesting shock and cooed "So this is that Nagi girl you are talking about? What's so good about her?" She looked down at the fallen Nagi and mocked "Bet you played damsel in distress for Prince Tetsuo to save you, weak Princess Nagi?" she gave Nagi another push on the shoulder.

Nagi refused to looked into the 3 girls and instead trained her eyes to the sides, lips quivering. "I-I didn't" she spoke softly that if the 3 girls didn't see her lips move and strain their ears to hear, they may have not catch her words.

"Didn't huh?" Mi-chan said.

"Hasara-kun, he-he approached me, I-I rejected him be-because I know he-he is seeing you." Nagi slowly and softly blurted out, eyes still looking at her side.

Mi-chan crouched down to see the fallen Nagi face to face and in the blink of an eye slapped Nagi with tremendous force. The force pushed her to land hard on the street, hands trembling as she tries to support her feeble body.

Mi-chan now standing up, put her right foot on Nagi's chest.

"Rejected him you say?" she spoke, voice screeching. Her friends behind her were sniggering. "Stop playing dumb, you flirted with him while I was dating him and when you were about to be discovered, you ditched him." She put pressure on her foot which was stepping on Nagi. Nagi was forced to lie down on the street, hands on Mi-chan's foot which was restricting her breathing, begging for her to stop.

Out of the corner of her eye, Nagi saw a figure getting close from behind the three girls. Footsteps, and suddenly a male voice was heard.

"Hey! Stop what are you doing to her!"

All three standing girls turned to look who was the person disturbing their mini-drama.

"So who is this? Another one of your victims, Flirty-Nagi?" Mi-chan asked Nagi and the boy.

The boy, Nagi can see now, he looked like a Middle Schooler too. With big brown eyes and gravity defying brunette hair. "No. I don't know her and I don't know who you are but-" he paused. "I won't allow you to treat her that way!" he said,voice with finality.

Tears started to from on the corner of Nagi's eyes, grateful for the arrival of an unknown person that is willing to help her despite being a stranger.

Surprisingly, Mi-chan withdraw her foot from Nagi's chest and said in a hmph "Whatever. I already had fun anyway. Let's go girls." She said and motioned for her two other friends to leave. Nagi and the boy were left.

Both of them watched the retreating figures of the 3 girls until the boy realized the position Nagi was in. He reached out a helping hand to her.

"Tha-thank you." Nagi whispered her thanks as she was helped to stand up.

"Who were they?" questioned the boy.

"My-my schoolmates." She said shyly.

"Hey are you sure you're alright? You looked shaken!" the boy asked worriedly

Nagi, who has been bowing down because of shyness turned her head to look up at the boy and nod her response. He gave her a small smile.

"Hi. I'm Tsuna, Sawada Tsunayoshi"

Chrome opened her eyes. She looked around her room.

'What was that?' she allowed herself a sitting position. 'That looks like meeting Bossu for the first time. But no, that never happened. A dream? No, a memory.'
