Reborn Ch. 1

It's been three years since the arcobaleno war. Though that doesn't mean it hasn't been all that quiet. Well let's face it; it is the tenth generation.

Since the battle ended Tsuna and his guardians have been travelling back and forth from Japan and Italy when they have breaks. Nono has been pushing Tsuna to take over more responsibility. Not to mention that when Tsuna and his guardian's graduate from high school they will be moving to Italy to officially take over Vongola. Well, all the guardian's except Lambo who will be staying in Japan until he finishes high school with Futa and I-Pin.

Not only has Tsuna been receiving the training but he has already been giving orders.

Just over a year ago, Tsuna had to deal with a rival famiglia that wanted to eliminate the Vongola Decimo. Not that they came right out and said that. Under the guise that they wanted to create an alliance, they asked to set up a meeting with Tsuna. Luckily because of his hyper-intuition he decided to send Gokudera and Yamamoto. The meeting had been going on for twenty minutes when they tried to poison them. It's not like they could change the plan after they found out the Vongola Decimo wasn't going to show up. With the plan put into motion and set hours before the start of the meeting resulted one of their own members being killed in the confusion of which cup had the poison.

Ever since the Acciai famiglia had gotten caught and in response started a war with Vongola. They have been trying to figure out who specifically is the Vongola Decimo but because of this being such a closely guarded secret. They have had no luck what so ever.

This situation is what currently occupies Tsuna as he sits in his room.

Tsuna has been spending his Sunday night so far, reading reports from alliances to attacks to actual Vongola Corporation. The stack of paperwork he has had to read over and sign is taller than Reborn's baby form twice high. If you're wondering how the papers got from Italy to Tsuna's room in Japan then that would be the new fax machine that Nono bought when he started to learn more. Not to mention the stack of extra paper hidden in his closet where Lambo can't get at it.

Tsuna: I should probably send some spies to check on this family. Yeah I should or Reborn will kill me if I don't take every pre-caution that I can. I can ask Dino-nii to send some men to check them out when I see him tomorrow. Why he is still part time teaching sometimes is a mystery to me …. Than again. *glances at Reborn* when you previously had this Spartan hitman as a tutor then you know when he asks for something, you do it. Which explains why he does it. Plus I think he just likes the excuse to come out here to visit. Yep Reborn probably scares him into complying like always.

Reborn: "Dame-Tsuna what are you thinking about when you should be doing your paperwork?"

Tsuna: "Shouldn't the World's Greatest Hitman be able to tell just from my expressions. Oh wait, you haven't been able to do that in two years."

Reborn: "Don't get smart with me Dame-Tsuna you know I would be able to put a bullet in you before you could even blink."

Tsuna: "Yeah you could. If it wasn't for the fact that you have orders not to from Nono and the fact that whenever you are in the room I always make sure I'm ready to dodge any threat you try to throw at me."

Reborn: "Well played Tsuna. There is just one thing that you forgot about."

Tsuna: "Oh yeah. What's that?"

Reborn all of a sudden jumps into the air, shoots at Tsuna twice with a regular 44. Tsuna somehow manages to avoid the bullets heading for his head and body. Right when Tsuna is about to put on a victorious smirk for being able to out maneuver Reborn.

He gets smacked on the face by Reborn's Leon 10-ton hammer.

Tsuna: "Itai. Reborn you cheated."

Reborn: "No I didn't. As a mafia boss you should always expect the unexpected. Remember nothing ever happens the same way. Plus I'm the world's greatest hitman I always have a one to punch ready to go."

Tsuna: "If you're the world's greatest hitman then why do you need a back-up plan." *mumbled*

Reborn: "What was that Dame-Tsuna?" Cocking his Leon gun, Reborn looked at Tsuna and had that dangerous glint in his eyes.

Tsuna: *GULP* "Nothing."

No matter how much older Tsuna got he would never get over being scared of Reborn. Let's face it Reborn is a sadistic Spartan arcobaleno hitman, this combination frightens all mafiosa.

Reborn: "That's what I thought. Anyways what is that report that made you look like you were trying to do math in middle school."

Tsuna: "I did not have that look on my face."

Reborn just raises an eyebrow in response.

Tsuna: "Whatever. Well the report I was looking at is for a family that wants to create an alliance with Vongola but there is something funny with this report that is sending my hyper intuition into disarray."

Reborn: "Good to see you are using some of that new vocabulary that I taug-."

Tsuna: "Taught? More like torture. You made me learn the entire dictionary in two weeks or you were going to triple your regular training regime."

Reborn: "You would also be thanking me if you didn't keep up your Dame act. I know why you insist on it and I agree begrudgingly, so don't speak. (Tsuna was about to open his mouth to talk) Anyways let me see that report."

Tsuna handed over the report to Reborn. As Reborn was reading over the report his smirk slowly left his mouth turning into a frown.

Reborn: "So Tsuna; what is your plan with how to deal with this situation?"

Tsuna: "I was planning on asking Dino-nii to send a couple spies over to the famiglia to check them out when I'm at school tomorrow."

Reborn: "Why not just call him you have the cell phone for a reason."

Tsuna: "Yes but it is late and I don't want him to be woken up at one in morning because I need him to do a favor for me. Especially when I'm going to see him the next day and it is not time sensitive as of this moment."

Reborn: "Good your reasoning is solid. Plus you put considerations into your choice so as not to anger allied families. Looks like that training is finally paying off huh Dame-Tsuna."

Tsuna: "Glad you agree. Since that is my last report I'm going to bed."

Tsuna got up from his desk chair and quickly changed into his pajama's. Heading over to the lights he turned around to make sure that Reborn was in his hammock. He was and already had the bubble coming out of his nose that indicates he is asleep. Turning off the lights and making his way to the bed. When Tsuna finally got there he got comfortable underneath the blankets and had a few thoughts running through his mind.

Tsuna: Geez he falls asleep fast. I wonder if I can do that as well. Guess I will never know. Anyways let's hope Reborn doesn't break my alarm clock again or Hibari will bite me to de-

SNORE

In the middle of that frightening thought Tsuna drifted off into the dark abyss that is sleep.

~morning~

SMACK

Tsuna: "Itai. REBORN!"

Well Tsuna was woken up the usual way; a Leon 10-ton hammer across the face.

Tsuna: "Do you really have to wake me up by hitting me every day?"

Reborn: "Yes because it is the only way you actually wake up. Plus if you don't hurry you're going to be late for school."

Tsuna: "HIIIIIEEEE. Just because Hibari finally accepted I'm his boss doesn't mean he is not going to bite me to death."

After the whole assassination attempt Hibari along with his other guardians (yes even Mukuro) became very over-protective. In the case of Gokudera it became even worse and took two months to convince him not to sleep outside his house every night. Though Hibari did become more protective he did not let him get away with breaking rules or disturbing Namimori. Unfortunately, his guardians were always loud. Therefore, they were always disturbing Namimori.

Hibari has been acting different ever since they started dating six months ago. He has been a little more possessive and protective. During every lunch time, when Tsuna and his guardians meet on the roof for lunch he goes up and watches over Tsuna by sitting by him. Yeah this surprised Tsuna at first, now it just amuses him. Every time Hibari sits with them he literally starts shaking (slightly it is Hibari) from wanting to beat all the herbivores for crowding. But he knows that they only want to protect Tsuna from potential harm. Though Hibari does not like it when the other guardians get a little too friendly with Tsuna; that is when his murderous aura gets more intense than usual. This whole change in their personal relationship was what led to the improvement in their boss-subordinate relationship.

Anyway, now that we have that little bit of information; back to the story.

Tsuna shot out of bed and ran into the bathroom. He quickly brushed his teeth while pulling on his uniform. Somehow managing to do that; he ran down the stairs. Grabbing his bag he pulled on his orange high tops. Looking at his watch he saw that he had five minutes to get to school and it was a ten minute walk.

"I'm leaving Kaa-san."

Tsuna bolted out of the door not bother waiting for a response from his mother or his family (freeloaders); though he can't call them that anymore. Lambo, Futa and I-Pin were official adopted as his siblings two years ago.

While he was running to school he happened to see Yamamoto and Gokudera. By saw he means he fell on a curb. Then heard…

"JUUDAIME!"

Yep that was Gokudera.

Gokudera: "I'm so sorry I wasn't there to accompany you to school. Your mom wasn't sure that you were going to school or not. So the baseball idiot convinced me that we should go to school."

Yamamoto: "Are you alright Tsuna? Did you get attacked?" These were asked as he surveyed the area with an unusual serious face.

Tsuna: "No, nothing like that. Did you look at the time?"

Yamamoto and Gokudera both shook their heads no.

Tsuna: "Well we only have… HIIIIEEEEE THREE MINUTES TO GET TO SCHOOL!"

Getting up off the ground, Tsuna grabbed Gokudera and Yamamoto's wrists and started running to school. It was a sight to behold. Thanks to Reborn's Spartan training Tsuna's speed had significantly increased, so Gokudera and Yamamoto were having trouble staying on their feet as Tsuna dragged them.

DING, DING, DING

The bell rang just as the three crossed the gate on to the campus, the bell went off. Bending over the three of them were panting their hearts out. Despite the fact that that was the warning bell there was still a considerable amount of students loitering. Just as the three were about to head to the building, a cold voice stopped them.

"Herbivore."

Tsuna: "HIEEEE! H-Hibari. W-We made it on time a-and are about to go to class. P-Please d-don't b-bite us to death."

Despite the fact that over the past three years Tsuna had gotten rid of his stuttering as he grew into his position as boss, Tsuna decided to keep up his dame act in order to avoid suspicion over his future position.

Hibari: "Herbivore, you made it this time but if you are late again I'll bite you to death."

Tsuna: "Yes Hibari."

After Tsuna said that he and his two friends made their way to the shoe locker. As they were changing their shoes they heard a couple screams and an influx of students bombarding the door.

Logical conclusion: Hibari decided to get the kids that were crowding in the front yard of the school.

Tsuna coming to this conclusion could only sigh. He would go check on Hibari during the lunch break. Though, he might be very happy because he got to bite some people to death. Which we all know makes the prefect very happy.

After changing their shoes the three made their way to class. As usual they got some stares. It is mostly because Tsuna is walking down the hall with the popular bad boy Gokudera and the baseball ace Yamamoto on either side of him. Most are wondering why the hang out with the school idiot, some are looking on with hearts in their eyes (this is all the yaoi fan-girls in the school), the rest are just looking on with hate because they believe they are better than Tsuna and yet he is acting high and mighty (not really but that's what they see) and when they tried to make a fool of him they were utterly defeated.

Over the past three years Tsuna had grown more into his body. Thanks to Reborn's training he had lost most of the baby fat on his body and face. Though, since he hasn't lost it all nobody in the school has noticed at all. Many still just see him as Dame-Tsuna. Though is body is very much toned now. His body could rival most models but underneath the baggy uniform nobody at the school could tell and his grandpa played a little connection game and got him out of gym along some of his guardian's. So most of the time he spends the time in the disciplinary committee's office where he does his work for Vongola so that he gets a little sleep at night.

As they enter the classroom of 2-3, the bell goes off to start school. Luckily the teacher isn't in the room yet. Heading to their seats they quietly sit down and wait for the teacher to come in while the rest of the class continues to talk and be rowdy.

Two minutes after the bell rings the teacher walks in to begin homeroom; this the best period because the students technically don't have to do anything. Tsuna doesn't even try to pay attention to whatever the teacher is saying; he just turns and stares out the window. His classmates and teachers would all say that he just looked out the window and thought about nothing. Truth is he is always thinking about Vongola matters. When he can no longer think about those matters, he reaches into his bag and pulls out some more documents. The teachers just leave him alone because by the third year of middle school all the teachers had already given up on him; even the ones in Namimori High School who hadn't even met him yet.

This makes it easier for Tsuna to keep up his Dame act. Plus, his classmates are a bunch of idiots anyway.

As homeroom ended the teacher left the classroom. Next was English. Despite what many think Tsuna is very proficient. Just like Italian, German, French, Polish, Russian, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, and Portuguese. Well when your teacher is Reborn you have to learn to read it, write it, and speak it with no trace of an accent.

Thanks to this it is very easy for Tsuna to act Dame because this happens to be one of the few teachers that will actually call on him. As Tsuna is going over some paperwork for the actual Vongola Enterprises the teacher happens to glance at him.

Teacher: This Dame student. Doesn't he realize that if he pays attention he might actually raise his grades? What is he even doing at his desk? He has never shown that kind of attention in his classwork. Maybe if I can get him to answer a question it might work.

Teacher: "Sawada."

No response.

Teacher: "Sawada."

Still there was no response.

"SAWADA!"

Tsuna: "H-Hai."

Teacher: "Please say number four on the board."

Tsuna: "The cat was jumping into the boat."

The actual statement was: The cat had jumped onto the couch.

The only thing the class did was laugh including Gokudera and Yamamoto. Only it was for a different reason. The class was laughing at their usual dame classmate. The other two were laughing at how stupid their classmates were over the fact that they believed Tsuna was that stupid. Hana just rolled her eyes and Kyoko just laughed along with Gokudera and Yamamoto.

As Tsuna retook his seat, he immediately went back to the work that he was originally working on.

After that was done, class resumed. Next was Italian and then math. Science was a boring class where nothing outstanding happened at all. Then it came to math and the Nezu Dohachiro sensei. Who somehow managed to get a new job at the high school? Nezu-sensei always had a grudge after Tsuna had managed to break his 'elite' status at the middle school. So ever since he found out that he was teaching him yet again he wanted to find some way to make his life miserable. That however doesn't work when the principal tells him to tread carefully around this specific student. All he can do is just get him to answer questions every once in a while.

Five minutes after class had started the door was slammed open.

Nezu: "R-Reboyama-sensei. What are you doing here?"

Reborn hopped onto the teacher's desk at the front and said,

Reborn: "I just came from a meeting with the principal and I have an announcement about the trip for this class."

Nezu: "Well, please sir the floor is all yours."

Reborn turned to the class and surveyed all the students. Gokudera, Yamamoto, Kyoko, Hana, and Chrome were looking at Reborn with a curious look, while also glancing at Tsuna for cues on what to do. Tsuna was looking at Reborn with a curious expression but was also slightly resigned. Hey its Reborn if he already thought of something than there is nothing anyone can do about it.

Reborn: "Well for this class for your class field trip you will be going out of the country. Due to the fact that the language chosen for this class is Italian you will be going to Italy."

At that point throughout the entire class all you could hear was cheering. Ignoring the fact that Reborn wasn't done talking the class started chattering away.

Nezu: "Stop talking. Reboyama-sensei isn't done talking yet."

Tsuna was happy because he saw the handle of Reborn's gun sticking out of his teacher cosplaying outfit.

Reborn: "Now that you are done talking are there any questions about this trip?"

Aki Hirata: "How are we going to pay for this trip?"

Reborn: "The entire trip is being covered by a corporate group."

Aki Hirata: "What group?"

Reborn: "Vongola Enterprises."

Gokudera, Yamamoto, Chrome, Hana, and Kyoko just turned and looked at Tsuna. The minute Tsuna heard the name of his company his face completely changed into anger. It took every ounce of willpower to not release his murderous aura that he had developed over the years. You could tell that it wasn't completely working because his guardians had gone pale and where slightly edging away from Tsuna.

When Reborn locked eyes with Tsuna his own eyes held nothing. In Tsuna's he could see the underlying anger and the murderous gleam that he had trained to be held in them.

Mochida Kensuke: "No way. Why would they fund our trip?"

Reborn: "That will be explained at a later time. For now I want you all to take this waiver and get it signed by your parents. If you don't get it signed then you will not be allowed to go. If you try to forge your parents signature then that means you will not be able to go. We have ways of telling if you do forge the signatures so, don't even try. I will be back to pick up the waiver in a week during your Italian class. Also since it will be a trip to Italy, we will be having an exam made by me. If you don't get at least a seventy percent you will not be allowed to go. Understood?"

Everyone in the class nodded. Reborn jumped down from the desk and was walking towards the door. When he reached the door he turned back towards the students.

Reborn: "Tomorrow your regular Italian teacher of Dino-sensei will be back. He will be here to distribute my exam. Good day, class."

With that said Reborn left the classroom. Tsuna just sat through the rest of class angry, while all the other students continued to talk about the upcoming trip. While Nezu-sensei, daydreamed about Italy.

That is the end of the first chapter. In this Tsuna got over his whole Dame thing and now keeps it as an act. He is also not gay or bi or straight. He is Kyoya sexual so this will have some but not a lot of Yaoi.

IF YOU DO NOT LIKE YAOI THEN HIT BACKSPCE NOW.

I will not appreciate flames just because you do not like one aspect of the story.

For the Yaoi it will only be kissing, some hinted aspects, and other PG ratings. Nothing more than what you would see in an under eighteen movie.

If you liked the story I will try to write a new chapter as soon as possible.

Good bye for now.
