New Assignment
Vongola Decimo is dead; shot in the chest by an angry husband who had too much to drink and did not appreciate Decimo's perticular brand of humor. Still piss-drunk, the husband had then proceeded to drive his car in to Decimo's awaiting limo; the collision causing a big explosion that killed all occupants, which included all of the deceased Don's Guardians. It wasn't a very glamorous way to go, all things considered. Reborn resists the urge to sneer. He had never liked the old Decimo and his playboy ways. A Mafia Boss is supposed to be charismatic and discreet; and while Decimo had his moments when it comes to charisma, he had never learned the definition of discretion. He openly flirted with any creatures on 2 legs and laughed when their partners came unavoidably running.
So, so stupid…and so, so embarrassing. They will have to work hard to cover the truth behind the whole affair before someone else catches wind of it and uses it to tarnish Vongola's otherwise solid reputation. If only, Reborn thinks, the Ninth hadn't named Enrico as his heir at the time. The boy hadn't been ready and not even Reborn's strict training could get him to grow up a little.
"I am aware of my own faults," says the Ninth, the old man once back in power now that Decimo is dead, "But do not fault me for my decision to have made Enrico the Heir. I had no choice at the time. My other two sons were dead."
"And what are you going to do now?" Reborn asks, wondering why he of all people was brought in. Does the Ninth somehow think Reborn knows someone eligible for the newly vacated position of Vongola Decimo? No, that wouldn't make sense. Maybe, the Ninth wants Reborn to search for someone eligible for the position.
"I want you to train the new Heir," the Ninth says and Reborn blinks, uncharacteristically taken aback.
"You have already found someone?"
"Iemistu Sawada is descended from Vongola Primo. Both Iemitsu and his son possesses Sky Flames. While Iemitsu is ineligible because of his current position, his son does not have the same limitations. I need to you to go to Nanimori and get him ready. Here's his file."
Reborn takes and glanced over the information written on the page.
"He's 24? Shouldn't he be in University? How can you be so sure he still lives at home?"
"A sweet and pure hearted boy Tsuna may be but he isn't a particularly hard-working one. From what Iemistu said, Tsuna did not have the grade for higher education."
"But this report is 5 years old," Reborn says and the Ninth sighed.
"It's the best I can get you. Your plane ride has been arranged and the Sawada's home address has been programmed in to your phone. Good luck."
Reborn blinks again.
"If I didn't know any better, I would have thought you were trying to get rid of me."
"I am," the Ninth said, not amused at all, "I have a lot of things to do. Do remember to report back on time Reborn."
"I understand," Reborn gets up and thinks about the brown haired boy in the file, wondering just what bringing a civilian in to their world will entail.
