It all started on a normal day in Namimori, when I met my older brother's friends for the first time.

"Takeshi-nii..." I began nervously.

He laughed, "They'll like you you'll see! Come on!"

So I followed him to school instead of walking by myself as per usual.

"JUDAIME!"

"G-Gokudera-kun!"

Takeshi waved "Yo! Tsuna!"

"Y-Yamamoto!"

"Oi! What are you doing here baseball idiot?"

Then all eyes were on me, "Who's she?"

Suddenly flustered by the octopus head's outburst I scrambled to hide behind my brother. Takeshi laughed, "She's my sister!"

"Y-Yamamoto! I didn't know you had a-"

"OI! How come you didn't tell us you had a sister?"

"Ha ha I guess I didn't."

"HEY! How long you gonna keep hiding back there you shrimp?"

Suddenly I wasn't nervous anymore I chucked a rock at the octopus head, "Don't call me small!"

"Why you little-" He pulled out dynamite and I took off running wide-eyed. Takeshi-nii had told me all about his friend Gokudera.

"It wasn't my faaaaaaaault!" I whined, dodging a bomb.

"Ha ha see? I told you they'd like you!"

I ran past Takeshi again, flailing like mad, "Noooooo Takeshi-niiiiiiiiii he's gonna get meeeeeeeee!"

"OI! Get back here you little runt!"

I continued to run, "Don't call me smaaaaaaaaaall!" I whined, flailing as he caught the hood of my jacket.

"G-Gokudera-kun!" The smaller boy called out, "We'll be late!"

Octopus head released me in favor of fawning over his friend.

I sighed in relief, as we all began to walk to Namimori Middle.

"OI! Shouldn't you be in Elementary school or something?" Gokudera barked at me.

I laughed, "Shouldn't you be in anger management Octopus head?"

"Hey! I'll show YOU anger management!"

Thus it began, my involvement with the Vongola family.
