AN : Hey everyone !
This is just an idea I had a few months ago. I already have 5 chapters written and will update.
I am sorry I didn't beta-ed them.
Thank you for your time.

He was doing his night round in a dark part of Namimori, like he did every night. It was calm and he enjoyed the loneliness of the night. He walked around the corner of the street when his beloved Hibird flew to him, chirping loudly.

He quickly understood that he needed to follow his bird. He increased his pace. Whomever was disturbing the peace of his city needed to be punished. Finally he saw his bird flying above a group in a small alleyway. He frowned. He hated gatherings.

The yellow light of a nearby street lamp hit a small form, surrounded by the group of five men and he hissed when he recognized Dokuro. He knew the girl could handle herself but he would hate for her to be the source of trouble in his city.

He walked slowly towards the group, always in the shadow. She was punching the men fiercely but they punched her back, she was outnumbered. He knew she wouldn't use her flame against civilians but it all changed when one of them lit up a ring on his right hand. If these men knew about the flames and their powers, then she could use hers too. He smiled. These herbivores were no match to an omnivore like her. They maybe high schoolers, but they were powerful and trained.

He saw her lit her own indigo flame and he lost his smile. As her trident was materializing into her hand one of the men hit her hard on the head with a metal bar. She fell limply against the cold concrete.

His blood turned cold and he ran towards the disturbance. No one was allowed to hurt people in Namimori. No one hurt his Family - though if you asked him he'd deny ever thinking about them as such. The men didn't even have time to see him come.

One of them was them was ripping Dokuro's shirt open and he was the first to bite the dust. The four others took their defensive stance but were way too slow. The deadly cloud guardian took them out in barely thirty seconds. They laid unconscious in a pile on the ground and he had no remorse whatsoever as he stepped on them to reached the girl.

He took a quick look at her and didn't like what he saw. Blood was pouring from a gash on her head and another on her arm. He sighed as he ripped the bottom of his shirt and pressed it against her forehead. He tied it tightly and repeated his movement with her arm.

As much as he hated company, especially when the people around him were the loud Vongolas, he knew he couldn't let her bleed to death, it would disrupt Namimori's peace and he couldn't allow that.

He gathered the unconscious girl in his arms. Now that he was carrying her he stepped carefully around the bodies at his feet. He'd have to call Kusakabe to make sure he took care of everything. Her skin was cold and he managed to drape his jacket on her.

He walked the empty streets in silence. He could feel the Mist Guardian breathing peacefully in his arms. He thought that she looked much better like that. She didn't have those worry lines that were maring her face all the time, as if she was afraid something was going to happen to her. He frowned. She was just another omnivore, nothing to care about.

He reached Sawada's house in less than ten minutes, barely feeling the weight of the too-light girl in his arms. He didn't bother knocking and pushed the door with his foot. He hadn't had time to put his foot inside that a blade was pressed against his throat. He glanced on his left.

Yamamoto Takeshi was looking at him with a smile.

"Hey Hibari ! I'm sorry, I did not know it was you." He lowered the blade with a smile. In front of Hibari was Gokudera Hayato, his system CAI pointed in his direction. "Is that … Chrome ?" The Rain Guardian asked with a frown.

Hearing his words Gokudera took two long steps and looked at the form in the man's arms. The top of her head and her eye patch were showing above the prefect's jacket.

"What happened ?" Gokudera asked. His voice was low and threatening but Hibari knew he wasn't the one on the receiving end of this anger. Whoever touched one of the Guardian's hair was sure to end up in the hospital. The rest of the Family never let anything unpunished.

"I took care of them." Hibari said. Quickly, Yamamoto ushered him in the living room where he was able to put the girl carefully on the couch. Tsuna entered the room at the same time, looking shocked at seeing Hibari kneeling in front of his sofa.

"Hi… Hibari-san ! What are you doing here ?" He panicked.

"Some thugs attacked her. She defended herself well but they had flames too. They hit her head and she's been unconscious since." He glanced at her, noticing the blood sipping from the clothes he had tied around her head. "I took care of the scum." He added and stood.

Gokudera knelt before her as he was going to say she needed medical attention. He took off the clothe and grimaced at the large cut on her temple. It was bleeding profusely, she was going to need stitches, he was sure. He took off the jacket next and gasped.

"What the… ? Oi Hibari ! Did you do that ?" He turned angrily towards the other guardian as Yamamoto and Tsuna glanced above his head and frowned. Chrome's black shirt was wide open, revealing both her underwear and an impressive number of scars.

"Do you really think the thugs who attacked her had nothing in mind ?" The Cloud Guardian answered, raising one of his eyebrow as if Gokudera was stupid. He heard the three boys gulping loudly.

"Thank you for saving her, Hibari-san." Tsuna's voice was serious, he was clearly trying to stay out of his hyper mode and not rush to kick some loser's ass. No one touched their Family, and Chrome was Family. Hibary hummed his acknowledgement and sat on an armchair next to the couch to call Kusakabe.

"Oi, Yamamoto, I need the first Aid kit." Gokudera said as he used a tissu to try and clean Chrome wound. He had quickly closed her shirt back, hiding her pale skin. "I'm going to stitch her up." He looked at Tsuna, waiting for his approval.

The Vongola Decimo knew they should bring her to the Hospital but they also knew she hated these places and that they would ask to many questions about her scars. He nodded slowly, trusting his auto-proclaimed right-hand man.

Yamamoto came back a minute later with a white metal box and handed it to him. Hibari was watching them with attention. As much as he hated crowds he wanted to make sure they would be taking care of her wounds properly.

Tsuna walked away to call his Sun Guardian, wanting him to come to use his flames and help Chrome heal. The boxer said he would be there in no time. Lambo was sleeping upstairs and he realised they would all be reunited in the same place for the first time in weeks. Too bad it was under these circumstances.

Gokudera was finishing with the stitched on her head. He had been more cautious than ever, wanting to make sure she'd have a scar as small and discreet as possible. Next to him Yamamoto was cleaning the deep cut on her arm.

The heavy silence filling the room was broken by the Storm Guardian's deep sigh as he finally put the needle and thread down and wiped the sweat from his brows.

"Is she… Is she going to be alright ?" Tsuna asked, almost fearfully.

"These wounds should heal properly but she must have someone looking at her head properly. We need to make sure she doesn't have a concussion or something." He said as he sat back on his heels.

"I'm calling Shamal." Tsuna said as he walked away again.

The three Guardian kept silent, worried for their friend. Even Hibari refused to leave before he knew she'd be alright. The door opened loudly and Ryohei, trying not yell, explained that he had been extremely fast. The three had nodded and shown him Chrome. The tough Sun Guardian had gulped at the sight.

They all knew how strong Chrome really was. Even unconscious she was maintaining her illusionary organs after all. But as they saw her now and there, so pale and small on Tsuna's couch they could not help but worry and be filled with anger and a need for revenge.

Ryohei knelt next to her, just where Gokudera had been minutes before and poured her body with his flame. The yellow glow made her look a little more alive. The small scratch on her cheek almost disappear and they were relieve to witness the efficiency of the healing flame.

When Tsuna came back in the room he sat on a chair next to Chrome's head. Shamal was on his way, he'll make sure she'd be fine. They had grimaced -even Hibari- knowing too well Shamal's taste for young women. They had no other choice and they wouldn't let this perverted man alone with their friend.

The Doctor arrived quickly after and was worried when he was met with silence. He examined the girl, praising Gokudera for his handy work. He could feel the four murderous auras in his back and pitied the persons who would found themselves on their receiving ends.

He used a small device created by a Vongola technician a few years before after Tsuna got hurt and had been unable to go to the hospital. It allowed him to scan his patient's body to make sure everything was alright.

When the black and white image appeared on the screen he looked at it carefully and sighed with relief. No concussion, she should be fine once she wakes up.

Tsuna offered all of them a drink and they accepted. Hibari too, to their greatest surprise.

"So, tell me Hibari-san," Tsuna said, sipping his beer, "What did you do ?" His low tone didn't leave any doubt, he was talking about the scums that had hurt one of them.

"I bite them to death." He answered matter of factly, as if the Vongola Decimo was stupid to ask such a question. Tsuna rolled his eyes. Of course the Cloud Guardian had bite them to death, but he wanted to make sure they'd not walk nor eat anything solid for a few weeks at least. "I'm pretty sure they won't look like the picture on their ID anymore, not even after they heal." Gokudera nodded grimly, clearly satisfied with his answer, Ryohei said something about it being an extremely good idea and Yamamoto chuckled darkly. "You need a report ?" They zealous man asked.

"A report on a very banal accident ? Oh I don't think I'll need that." Tsuna smiled sweetly. "I'm pretty sure they just tripped and fell." His Guardians nodded and Shamal rolled his eyes. The doctor stood up.

"I'll be going. I'll come back in the morning, making sure she's alright. If she wakes up before I come back just call me." The five men nodded and he left.

Tsuna slumped a little more in his chair when the door closed behind him. He had rarely felt so tired and couldn't help but glance at the unconscious girl on his couch every five seconds.

"She's not going to go anywhere." Hibari said as he stood. "Call me if anything happens." And without so much as a goodbye he left the room through its window.

He walked in the calm empty street with a frown. It was nice and unbothered. Not a sound, not even a cat meowing somewhere.

He looked at his phone and saw that Kusakabe had answered him : he had cleaned the alleyway of its trash. The man had also send him the names but the five men were unknown to him. He decided to go back there anyway. He hoped to find clues about who these men were and why they had flames.

He had an excellent memory and remembered that the two flame users had used Rain flames. He just knew they had used its calming abilities to restrict Chrome. That was why she hadn't fought back faster. Those bastards knew what they were doing. He'd have to work on this case, making sure they hadn't made any more victims. He knew no one had been attacked in Namimori but he didn't know them and they might have used this sick trick in other places.

To his surprise Kusakabe was still there when he arrived. Even if the man wouldn't admit it he knew he was worried about the Mist Guardian. As the only girl in their small group she had grown on all of them. He would never say that he liked her but he recognized he didn't want to kill her as much now that Mukuro had left her mind.

She had joined them at Namimori middle school, then high school and she was going to graduate with all them. She had mourned her relationship with the Pineapple Head for months. Now, when the man visited them she almost barely noticed him. The Vongola Gear on her ears more than enough for her to prove that she could provide for her own illusionary organs.

The young woman she had become was powerful and as much as he hated to admit it - and he would never say it out loud - he was proud to train her. He had laughed at her when she'd asked and now he was proud to say that her stamina and physical strength had immensely increase.

She was able to hold her own in hand combat. Except when she was attacked by surprised, outnumbered and dozed in Rain Flame of course, but most omnivores couldn't do much in the same position. He was glad he had trained her as it was what alarmed him when he saw her. She was not fighting back as much as she should have. Who would have thought spending so much time in her company would become useful one day… Certainly not him.

He pretend not to see it but he did notice the small smile on Kusakabe's lips. The man knew.

"She'll be alright." He said and his right-hand man nodded. He wanted to rolled his eyes at the look of relief on his friend's face.

They searched for something, anything, but found nothing. They left the place after an hour.

When they went back to Tsunayoshi's house in the morning Chrome was still sleeping. He didn't expect to enter the living room to find the four men sleeping there too. The sound of his steps woke them up. They sat groggily, greeting him.

Kusakabe gave them all documents with the names, pictures and hospital rooms of the five men that has attacked their friend. He winced when he saw Chrome laying, unmoving, on the couch, fresh stitches on her forehead and arm. He felt sad, he liked the girl. She was always nice to him.

With all these informations in their possession the five men knew what they needed to do to the five scums. Determination shone in their eyes. They just wanted to wait for Shamal to come back and for Chrome to wake up. They just wanted to make sure she'd be fine. And then… Then Hell would break loose. They'd better learn how to eat with a straw.

AN : I really hope you've liked this as much as I loved writing it. The following chapters will be about Yamamoto, Gokudera, Tsuna, and Ryouhei.

Some of them may have more than one chapter though. I write as the ideas come to me.
If you've noticed any mistake do not hesitate to tell me and I'll correct it, English is my second language.

I hope to see you soon,
N.
