I do NOT own Katekyo Hitman Reborn!


Reborn's hat had been pulled over his eyes to hide the loneliness in them as he began to speak…

"We gather here today…To remember the life of Sawada Tsunayoshi. The tenth boss of the Vongola Famiglia…"

Nana was being held by Iemitsu, sobbing against his chest. Next to them were Gokudera, Yamamoto, Ryohei, Lambo, and Chrome. And beside them were Kusakabe, Kyoko and Haru with Ken, Chikusa and M.M.. Dino stood beside her with Romario standing behind him, holding his boss's shoulder as he cried. The Varia and the Millefiore stood behind all of them, their faces expressing the sadness and pain they were all feeling.

"Sawada Tsunayoshi was a young man…A young man with a big dream that would benefit everyone in the world for the greatest good…"

The beautiful black coffin with the golden-colored Vongola crest engraved into it held the young, but fearless leader. It lay open, revealing Tsuna's pale figure, cold and motionless. Everyone stood around it, letting their tears slip without hesitation or concern of their images.

"…He believed that every man was to be treated equally. That friends and family were important…"

Inside the beautiful, black coffin was a soft red silk lining, filled with beautiful white lily flowers. Hibari and Mukuro looked on from a distance, on opposite ends.

"…He was a man who loved those close to him more than anything in the world…"

Mukuro was standing on a branch, looking over the scene, his eyes only on the motionless graceful body of what was once his most cherished thing in the world. His beloved Boss and secret lover. His head was low as he began crying.

"…Sawada Tsunayoshi had the biggest smile on his face whenever his family and friends would be together laughing and smiling…"

Hibari was looking on from behind a tree, his eyes on the peaceful body of his Boss. His Boss, he wouldn't like for Hibari to address him in that way. Besides, he was his secret lover. But now the very thing he loved more than discipline itself was gone. Hibari fell to his knees and began to cry.

"…Even knowing that this would be an outcome of his life an any moment, he only and always wanted one thing…"

"Tsunayoshi-kun…" Mukuro said, tears streaming down his cheeks.

"Tsunayoshi…!" Hibari spoke as he broke down.

Reborn lifted his hat, showing a tear running down his cheek. He smiled as he spoke his last words for the day…

"…It was for everyone to always keep smiling to the very end."
