Author's Note:

Hello everyone! This is my first fanfic, out of the many first fanfics that I've been trying to write, that I'll actually let people read!!! Yayness! So, please enjoy and read the warnings, thank you.

Warnings: later on there will be some language, sexual content, violence, angst, shounen-ai, etc. etc. but for now, it will be safe, a little humorous (I'm not that great at comedy as my sister told me *tears*) and happy… but Haru lovers may not enjoy what Hibari will call her (I apologize for that). This story is also not for anti-D1869 (DinoxHibarixMukuro) people, alternate universes, nor anti-triangle people. So, if you do not like either of the two, please do not read or flame for such reasons (though this pairing won't show up until either the second or third chapter). If not, then read on.

Prologue

To begin this fairytale with 'Once upon a time' would not befit said story. To begin with 'This tale is about a troubled king with an unusual family' defines and explains more of what the story is about and makes it a hell of a lot easier to write. And hence, this story shall commence.

This tale is about a troubled king with an unusual family. After marrying Princess Kyoko of the Sasagawa Family to the Sawada Family's Prince Tsunayoshi, the two families created a strong alliance to prevent a war against one another. Unlike most arranged engagements, both Tsuna and Kyoko loved each other and happily wedded. Taking the place of his father to become king, King Tsuna and Queen Kyoko had two children, Princess Chrome and Prince Kyoya. King Tsuna, of course, was a loving father, but he sensed a certain weird vibe among his two children. Yes, they both loved animals and fought with each other (though with forks, tridents, and tonfas) like ordinary siblings and children would do, but there was something very strange about them that Tsuna had a hard time figuring out. Later, he noted that the weird vibe centered more on his son than his daughter, whom the only strange thing he could find was that Chrome wore an eye patch on her right eye for no reason.

Pondering in his bed late at night, Tsuna listed the strangities (he just made up that word) of his son, Kyoya Sawada.

Now, King Tsuna began in his thoughts, it was strange how when his son spoke his first words, they were: "I'll bite you to death." Tsuna believed it was the family listening to all those foul languages the knights spoke from time to time and expected Kyoya to forget it in a couple of days. Years later, Tsuna would see that this would become his son's favorite catch phrase.

Tsuna found it strange when Kyoya told Tsuna to not call him Kyoya, but to call him Hibari… with a –san at the end! Even Chrome joined in, asking to be called Dokuro-san (but more jokingly). At least Kyoya still called him Father.

It was also strange how Ky... Hibari-san liked the company of Advisor Reborn above others. Hibari did hang out with knights a lot as well, but Reborn was a higher level of weirdness. How this was strange, nobody in the castle really knew, but Tsuna believed that anybody who enjoyed hanging out with Reborn was very strange. He soon received a bullet to the head when Reborn got word of this (which, to the happiness of his wife, were only Sorry Bullets, making him miserable for the rest of the day).

Another strange thing that Tsuna noticed was the day he heard his daughter, Chrome, was being bullied in school. He panicked when the kids came home, and gawked at what he saw. Chrome had a bruise on her forehead and Hibari was covered in blood. When asked why, Hibari shrugged and said, "I bit the herbivores to death." The bullies went missing soon afterwards.

There was also dinner time, where Hibari sometimes brought a dead pig to the kitchen and made… what was that again? Oh right, hamburgers. Where Hibari came up with such an idea, King Tsuna had no clue, but his son would never eat the meals made by the chefs unless it was Japanese food.

It was very strange that one day Tsuna happened to open Kyoya's door and saw a poster of drawings with darts all around. Peering closer, he realized the drawings around the borders were his servants, knights, etc. and that the great big picture in the middle was Tsuna himself (his had the most darts). There was a sign above that read: List of Herbivores to Bite to Death. King Tsuna did not get the message his son was trying to tell him, and walked away in defeat.

All this weirdness that surrounded his son, Kyoya, or Hibari-san as he liked to be called now, and King Tsuna could not figure him out. The clues were swarming in his head, but he could not put the puzzle pieces into their right positions. His son was just a mystery to him. But in the end, Tsuna could not ask for a better family, no matter how confusing and small the relationship was.

And so, it was in the morning of May 5th that Tsuna's anxiety reached to a high point as he felt the imminent presence that would break the tiny bond he had with his son. He gulped nervously as he sat on his throne with his queen on the other to await the arrival of his son.

The heavy bolted doors opened, and Tsuna watched as Hibari, in his royal white and gold suit, walked along the fine, silky red carpet that led to the marble steps that the two thrones were on top of. Hibari stopped in front of the marble steps, and looked up at his father with onyx eyes. He was very unhappy, since earlier he was beating up some of the knights who dared to call him 'gal', and bore holes at his father's forehead with his stare.

"Father," asked Hibari, his voice hinting boredom and malice, "you called me?"

"Hibari-san, we have decided…" Tsuna paused to turn to his queen, who nodded for him to continue, "that because you have turned 16, you will be engaged to your longtime fiancé, Haru."

In the back of Hibari's mind, two cars collided together and made a nuclear explosion. Trying to keep his cool, he replied, "What?"

"You are going to marry Haru Miura," Tsuna said once more with much tension. He knew this was not going to end well.

It wasn't like Hibari had any ill-feelings towards Haru, it was just, living with her, Hibari didn't even want to imagine that. So, he played three plans of action to get away from this. One: marry Haru, then either shoot her or himself, which would both result with a miserable kingdom and the banishment of Hibari from the mentioned kingdom (though it made him curious on how they could banish him when he was dead). Two: refuse the proposal, say she's a bitch, and get banished from the kingdom. And three… well; he'd like to not think about that one, as the results will probably be worse than banishment. After much consideration, Hibari picked Plan Number Two as it seemed to be the only plan that his father would probably let slip by (not that he had a problem with being shunned, it's just that searching for a new home took time).

"I refuse," Hibari stated plainly. Tsuna sighed.

"And why is that?"

"She's a bitch," Hibari replied calmly, gladly following his plan smoothly and literally. Tsuna and Kyoko gaped.

"Kyoya," Kyoko said in a displeased tone.

"You cannot call a woman you're marrying a bitch," Tsuna exclaimed, "It's against the Code of Honor of a prince and exiles you from this kingdom!"

Long pause.

"Then why aren't you sending me away?" Hibari questioned with a raised brow.

"Because, I just made it up after you said that!"

Hibari smirked. He knew his father all too well. Satisfied in getting what he wanted, Hibari walked away triumphantly.

"Hibari-san, I was not done talking to you!"

Hibari blanched. Scratch what he had just said before; apparently he didn't know King Tsuna that well.

"Yes…fa-a-ather," Hibari muttered through gritted teeth. Tsuna flinched.

"Um, in a-about a da-week," Tsuna stuttered, "I would… liketohearyourreplyoncemoreontheproposaltoPrincessHaru."

Sadly for Hibari, he understood every word in that long sentence and glared at his father. The glare was so overwhelming, Tsuna heard his mind squeak, "Eek!"

"Of course I will… father." And with much contempt, Hibari stomped away defiantly.

Tsuna sighed and bowed his head in defeat. Kyoko frowned upon this and called for Advisor Reborn to come forth.

"You called, Your Majesty?" asked Reborn, jumping up onto Kyoko's lap.

"Reborn," Kyoko asked gently, "would you please see to Kyoya that he doesn't feel too upset about this situation? I need to tend to my husband right now."

"I'll see what I can do," Reborn answered, sliding off the skirt of Kyoko's dress. He turned towards Tsuna, who was in a world of reasons on why he was such a bad king. Taking out what seemed to be a jack-in-the-box, Reborn twirled the handle till a boxing glove popped out and punched Tsuna out of his trance.

"What did you do that for," Tsuna exclaimed, rubbing his now swollen cheek.

"Stupid Tsuna," said Reborn, "too naïve to see his son's problems."

Reborn walked away afterwards, leaving a terribly confused king and a caring queen caressing her stupefied husband. What an annoying family Reborn had to deal with. Mainly, what a useless king he had to work for.

Author's Note:

Oh boy this was a little too G-rated for my liking, XD, but oh well, the T rating will come soon… I hope (this author needs her angst). Anyways, I hope everybody enjoyed this and Tsuna being a clueless king, I've always wanted to write about that, haha. And we'll see what is up with Hibari *drools* in the next chappie.
