AN: Okay then! Heres my first fanfic written and posted on this account. This is just the prologue, So I'm not entirely sure how this is going to turn out, buuuut I'm going with it anyway. xD haha! This idea had been floating around in my head for a while now, and I haven't been able to figure out how to write it out without sounding weird and messing everything up soooo... I finally just gave in and made it AU (Since thats basicly what it is after all) I can't guarantee that I'll follow along with the plot very well considering everything... But who cares! It's a fanfic so I can do whatever the f**k I want with it anyways. ^^ Haha, Lets just hope it doesn't turn out too badly.
Oh! And feel free to correct any spelling, grammar, or other errors you spot. I don't have a beta and I'm not sure I ever will so it's just little ol' me tryin' my best to get it as right as can be. And thats easier said than done considering I'm dyslexic... Oh well!
Warning: Contains swearing, killing, violence, and other stuff.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything (Except Zelvinki(the OC). He's mine. Aaaaalll mineeee.)

Somewhere in Nanimori
...
Evening settled down upon the land of the rising sun. The sky was light up in brilliant oranges, reds, and yellows. The clouds appeared golden against the backdrop. A gentle wind swept across Nanimori as the town settled down with family or friends. And walking down the street was a small 6 year old brunette. His body was covered in little cuts and bruises. His cloths covered in dirt.
He was known as Sawada Tsunayoshi, or Dame-Tsuna to those in his class. He had managed to get away from the bullies that beat him near daily and was headed home, going the long way for once. He paused when he felt something shifting near him. He looked back, tilting his head a bit to one side.
There was nothing there.
He looked back forward and kept walking. Not long afterwards he felt it again. That odd presence that sneaked just behind him, hiding in the shadows.
He blinked, looking around for anything odd or out of place(or anything that his 6 year old mind thought would be out of place) but still found nothing.
It confused him that he would keep feeling something following him.
"Is this really Iemitsu's brat?"
He turned around to take a look at where the voice had come from. A group of 5 men in expensive looking suits stood before him. He looked at them oddly. They were clearly foreigners and the odd language that they spoke made little sense to his 6 year old brain. What did make sense to him was the gun that one of them pulled out of their jacket and pointed at him.
He stumbled backwards, eyes going wide with fear. Something was wrong. Even if his mother tried to shield him from the evils of the world around him, even he knew what a gun was and how dangerous it could be.
"Oi, Brat. Sorry to do this, but orders are orders"
Now he understood the words, but what was being said still made no sense. Orders? What orders?
There was a loud bang and Tsuna felt pain shoot through his body. The bullet lodged itself in his shoulder. He fell backwards and cried out for help.
Make it stop.
The men in suits went closer to him. The one holding the gun pressed the black thing to his forehead.
"Arrivederci."
Tsuna shut his eyes tight and prepared for his death (While he couldn't understand why, he knew what would happen)
Please. I don't want to die.
"Allow me."
BANG
A new voice sounded and when Tsuna opened his eyes it wasn't the men in suits that held a gun up to his head that stood before him.
In front of Tsuna was an odd looking man. He stood over 6 feet tall, nearing 7, wearing a plain black collared shirt and black slacks, his feet were bare. He had short messy black hair and bright yellow eyes. But that wasn't what was odd. What was different about the man was the black wolf's tail that waved back and forward behind him, and the wolf-like ears that flicked atop his head.
He smiled a feral grin at the men and opened his hand (which was about where the bullet would have passed through should its path not have been obstructed) A small crumpled piece of metal fell to the ground and a crimson soon followed. The man's hand bled, albeit not much, but it bled nonetheless.
The other men in suits pulled out handguns and pointed them at the odd stranger. They shouted out more words that Tsunayoshi could not understand, that odd language they had conversed in earlier.
The man simply turned his head a bit to look back at the brunette who had collapsed on the ground behind him, "Oi, Chibi. What do you say we make a deal?"
"A deal?" Tsuna's voice was weak as he spoke over the pain in his shoulder.
"I'll protect you till the end of time so long as you do one thing for me."
"And what would that be?"
"Entertain me."
The brunette paused as he heard the words. The men waved their guns threateningly and kept shouting with those odd, odd words.
"Deal."
As soon as tsuna said those words, his vison went red. The pavement below him was stained the color, as was anything that happened to be nearby. The man now crouched before the shivering brunette and smiled softly at the little boy.
"Scared?" He whispered.
Tsuna closed his eyes and nodded slowly.
"Do you want me to leave?"
Tsuna paused for a moment then shook his head.
"I'm a monster you know." The man said.
This caused Tsuna to stop a moment again. He opened his eyes and peered at the man.
"But you'll protect me, won't you?"
The man blinked, looking surprised. Then he broke out laughing. "How interesting! You're frightened and yet you'll trust me! How curious. How strange."
His expression calmed and he looked back at the boy, who was on the verge of passing out.
"Then I'll stay. I'll stay by your side and protect you so long as you live."
Those were the last words the boy heard before passing out amongst the corpses of the hitmen who had come to kill him. Little did he know just how much his world would change when he returned to the land of the living the following day.

7 Years Later
Somewhere in Italy
…
"So then you'll take the job?" An old man leaned back in his chair.
He sat at a desk in his office. The walls were lined with books and papers were placed in neat stacks on the desk. In front of the desk was two couches that faced one another with a low coffee table in between. A baby in a suit with a fedora stood on the table, eyeing a file with an expert eye.
"I'll do it. Although I can't help but wonder how this will go. He doesn't look very much like boss material."
"With you training him, I'm sure he'll turn out fine. You are, after all, Reborn the World's Greatest Hitman."
The baby smirked, "Flattery will get you nowhere, Timoteo."
The old man smiled kindly at the hitman, "But it's the truth, isn't it?"
Reborn tilted his fedora down and looked at the file again.
