Little Bookwyrm: Hello everyone! It's me with a new story!

I had this story in my head for a while and just stared writing it down! I hope you like it just as much as my other stories.

Just so you know, this is an AU story, meaning that some characters might be a little out of character at times, and some characters having relationships that they wouldn't have in the canon works.

Well then, now that I've gotten that out of the way, enjoy the story!

Reborn: I'll also be helping in this story

Reinforce Zwei: Me too. Also, Little Bookwyrm doesn't own any of the characters featured in this story.

Little Bookwyrm: Guys! Save your comments for after the chapter!

Chapter One: Five girls and a new adventure?

It was a beautiful morning in the suburbs of Namimori. The sunlight hit the several houses with an early spring rise which was greeted by the songs of birds. There were a few vehicles occupying the streets and people everywhere were waking well rested and eagerly looking to a new day.

Well…almost everyone was.

"HIIIEEE!" screamed one Sawada Tsunayoshi as he tumbled from his bed and landed with a crash on the floor of his bedroom.

"Reborn!" Tsuna exclaimed in shock at his tutor, who was currently dressed as a participant of a matsuri. In his small hands was the drumstick used to bang the gong that somehow had appeared next to Tsuna's bed.

"Good morning, Tsuna," the pint-sized hitman said.

"'Good morning' are you crazy!" Tsuna asked.

"You better hurry, Tsuna," Reborn said as if nothing had occurred. "You'll be late if you don't start moving."

"Eh?" Tsuna glanced up to the clock on his wall and saw that it was quarter to eight.

"Hie!" Tsuna shrieked for the second time that morning as he scrambled into his uniform.

Hardly a minute later, Tsuna darted down the stairs, grabbed a slice of toast and said a quick good-bye to his mother before darting out the door. Nana merely wondered why Tsuna was leaving in such a hurry and only figured that it was something important before returning to her cooking.

"Seriously, what's with these skirts?"

At the same time, five female middle-school students were making their way to Namimori, the school that they'd be attending for the next year or so. The girl who had spoken had light brown hair cascading down to her waist and was busily trying to make the skirt she wore with her uniform reach well past her thighs.

"We've never had skirts this short back in Uminari," the girl said angrily. "Are they trying to make us look like sluts?"

"I don't think so, Alisa," another girl, this one with short dark brown hair with a pink and yellow hair clips crossed on a part of fringe, "but I doubt that's what they're doing."

"Well, I'm definitely ordering longer skirts," mumbled Alisa. "Putting that aside, what do you think our new school is like?"

"From what I heard," the second girl said, "it's a normal school, unless you count stories of students getting beaten up by the Disciplinary Committee."

"I've heard those too," another girl, this one with long, blonde hair that was pulled back by a large black bow at the end of the locks, said softly. "When Momma heard them, she nearly had a heart attack."

"Lindy-san's just worried, Fate-chan," a third girl with long brown hair pulled into a side ponytail said reassuringly.

"My folks were ready to prepare a lawsuit in case something happened," Alisa sighed. "They worry over nothing."

"I'm just worried about fitting in," Fate admitted.

"Don't worry, Fate-chan," the last girl, this one with long violet hair, said with a smile. "If someone bugs you, Nanoha-chan and Hayate-chan can just blast them."

"Not funny, Suzuka-chan," the third girl, Nanoha, said. "Magic isn't a joke."

"Speaking of which," Hayate turned to Alisa and Suzuka with a grin. "How's your training with Lindy-san?"

Both girls flinched; ever since it had been discovered that the two possessed magical talent, Lindy had been personally training them in it. While it was clear that neither wanted to pursue a magical career, bother found it interesting all the same.

That is…till Lindy started training them on their stamina.

"Lindy-san is very…" Suzuka struggled to find the right word. "Efficient?"

Alisa snorted. "That's an understatement, Suzuka. She's like an Amazon Warrior on steroids!"

For the past few weeks, Lindy had had the two continually complete mile long laps around track fields and, when possible, work on their evading skills with dummy drones that shot at them. The first time that happened, the two had to hide from their folks to avoid explaining the multiple tears and holes in their clothing and why they smelled like sulfur.

"Lindy-momma can be…overbearing at times," Fate agreed, "but your magical senses have increased rapidly, right?"

"Yeah," Alisa sighed. "Even thought we won't get our own devices, we'll still at least be able to locate the Jewel Seeds when you're not around."

The others nodded; while most didn't know, the real reason for the transfer school program was to locate and seal the remaining twelve Jewel Seeds. It had been hard convincing most of the families, excluding Nanoha's, Fate's, and Hayate's, into the idea until Lindy and the Wolkenritter offered to go with them as supervising adults, though that was the original plan.

"At least my folks offered to pay for the apartments," Alisa said, "since Lindy-san can't afford two apartments. I just hope the Jewel Seeds get found before too long."

"A new town to search for Jewel Seeds," Fate said softly. "Sort of feels…nostalgic."

Nanoha nodded in agreement.

"Except you won't be fighting for them," Hayate said with a smile, "and you'll have the rest of us helping."

The two mages smiled. "Thank you, Hayate-chan," Fate said.

"Hey loosen up, Fate," Alisa grinned, nudging the blonde with an elbow. "You're not going to get a boyfriend if you're like that."

"A-Alisa-chan!" Fate blushed as the others laughed at their friend's expense.

Nanoha's laugh was cut short when something slammed into her from behind. She didn't notice her fall onto the sidewalk as her mind was preoccupied by what she sensed behind the force.

Power and a lot of it.

"Agh! I'm so sorry!" a voice said. "Are you okay?"

Looking up, Nanoha stared at the owner of the voice. A boy about her age with gravity-defying brown hair and large brown eyes were staring down at her. There was faint dust of pink on his cheeks and Nanoha was grateful she had put on those shorts under her skirt.

"Oi!" Alisa shouted angrily at the boy with a raised fist. "Why don't you watch where you're going?"

"HIE!" The boy screeched, backing away. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

"Don't frighten him, Alisa-chan," Nanoha said, standing up and brushing the dirt off her skirt. "He didn't mean it."

"I'm sorry," the boy said in a softer tone. "I was in such a hurry since I was late and I—."

"Late?" Hayate cut the boy off with a perplexed look. "What do you mean you were late?"

The boy stared. "Isn't it five to eight?"

Suzuka, fishing out her cell phone, opened the mobile device to stare at the screen. "It's only seven-thirty-five," she said, showing the boy the screen.

The boy's eyes widened. "Reborn!" he howled in agony, shocking the girls. "You put my clock ahead?"

"Re…born?" Fate asked.

The boy sighed in despair. "My living nightmare."

The five girls looked at each other—what kind of name was Reborn?—and Hayate started to giggle.

"Hayate-chan," Nanoha said telepathically. "That's not nice."

"I can't help it," the Mistress of the Night Sky said over the link. "He looks so cute!"

It was true; with his depressed face, the boy looked like a kicked puppy asking for forgiveness. If he had ears and a tail, no doubt they'd be drooping, even more so when he saw Hayate giggle.

"I-I'm sorry," Hayate said, managing to somewhat control her laughter. "I-It's just that…has anyone told you that you're cute like that?"

The boy stared at Hayate for a moment before her statement finally sank in. His face became red as a tomato and his large brown eyes became fixated on the ground between them.

"Aww," Suzuka crooned over the link. "He's much cuter now!"

Nanoha rolled her eyes at her two friends.

"Don't mind them," she said to the boy with a smile. "I'm Takamachi Nanoha. What's your name?"

"T-Tsuna," the boy stuttered, still embarrassed. "Sawada Tsunayoshi, but my friends call me Tsuna."

"I'm Fate Harloawn," Fate said, holding out a hand. "It's nice to meet you, Tsuna-kun."

Tsuna gingerly took the outstretched hand and was slightly surprised by the strong, yet gentle grip the golden-haired girl possessed.

"Yagami Hayate," Hayate said. "Sorry about my comment earlier. That was uncalled for on my part."

"It's okay," Tsuna said, his blush now faintly evident.

"I'm Alisa Bannings," Alisa said with a wolfish grin.

Tsuna's eyes went wide. "Bannings? As in…?"

"Yeah yeah," Alisa waved it off. "That one."

"I'm Tsukimura Suzuka," Suzuka greeted with a bow. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Tsuna-kun."

"It's…uh…nice to meet you too." Tsuna said. "I haven't seen you before; are you new?"

"We're the transfer students," Nanoha explained.

"Really?" Tsuna was surprised. He had heard from Reborn awhile ago that there'd be some new students joining them the next semester, so he had naturally figured they'd be involved in the mafia. Now, he wasn't so sure as they clearly didn't know who Reborn was, or was it a fluke?

"Jūdaime!" a familiar voice shouted and, turning around, Tsuna saw one silver-haired bomber running up to him.

"Gokudera-kun," Tsuna greeted. "Ohayo."

"Another cute one!" Hayate and Suzuka squealed telepathically.

The others just sighed.

"Reborn said you had already left, Jūdaime," Gokudera said as he reached Tsuna's side, "so I ran to catch up with you."

"Jūdaime?" Nanoha asked, gaining Gokudera's attention.

"Oi, who are you?" The bomber asked.

"Gokudera-kun, these are the new transfer students," Tsuna said quickly when Alisa opened her mouth to chew the bomber out. "These are Nanoha-chan, Fate-chan, Hayate-chan, Alisa-chan, and Suzuka-chan."

"You can drop the –chan, Tsuna," Alisa said. "That's too much of a mouthful for me."

"Oi, don't tell Jūdaime what to do," Gokudera said with a not so hidden threat in it.

"What are you going to do?" Alisa grinned. "Hit me?"

"Why you…" Gokudera started to reach in his jacket for his dynamite. He was going to send this loudmouth into next week!

"Ah! It's alright, Gokudera-kun," Tsuna quickly said. He really didn't need an explosion this early in the morning.

"If Jūdaime says so…" Gokudera reluctantly let his hands fall to his side.

"Back to my question," Nanoha said, feeling a little bit of sweat dripping down her forehead. "Why's he calling you 'Tenth'?"

"Because…we're best friends," Tsuna said, not wanting to put too much thought into an answer that would most likely have to do with putting the words 'Mafia' and 'Boss' in there.

Luckily, someone came to help advert the questions.

"Ohayo, Tsuna-kun," Sasagawa Kyoko said from behind the girls.

"Kyoko-chan," Tsuna said with a light blush. "Ohayo."

"Looks like he's already taken," Hayate pouted.

"I don't think so," Suzuka said. "It looks one-sided."

"Definitely," Alisa agreed.

"Are you the new students?" Kyoko asked, turning her attention to the five new comers. "It's nice to meet you. I'm Sasagawa Kyoko."

"EXTREME!" a voice boomed before anything else could be said. While five girls were puzzled, it wasn't hard for the others to recognize the battle cry of one training and boxing fanatic.

"Onii-san," Kyoko called out as the white haired boy skidded to a stop beside the group.

"Onii-san?" Alisa echoed, trying to find some similarity. They don't look a thing alike!

"This is Ryohei, my nii-san," Kyoko explained. "Nii-san, these are the new transfer students I told you that were coming this year."

"Hello to the EXTREME!" Ryohei bellowed, causing the girls to jump.

"It's nice to meet you too, senpai," Nanoha said with a nervous laugh.

"Can you tone the volume down a bit, though?" Hayate asked with her hands over her ears.

Just then, the sound of a bell echoed from a distance.

"Shoot!" Alisa said. "We were so busy talking that we forgot about school!"

"Let's run to the EXTREME!" Ryohei shouted and darted down the road before anyone could counter.

Yet, seeing no other alternative, the group took off down the road, unaware of one fedora-wearing hitman watching from afar.

Upon arriving at school, it was shown that the five students from transferred from Namimori were to originally be in Tsuna's class. After introductions and settling in, the class began with a review of last semester's material, and all that time Nanoha kept glancing up at Tsuna, who was sitting directly in front of her.

Nanoha still couldn't get that powerful feeling that she had felt when Tsuna had ran into her out of her head, but now she could barely sense it. Perhaps it was sealed?

The brunette nibbled thoughtfully on her pencil; that couldn't be it since she could still sense it. Maybe it only came out when he needed it, like when he thought he was late for school.

"Nanoha!" Alisa's voice rang in her head just then. "What are you doing? You've been staring at Tsuna for the last five minutes!"

"Maybe Nanoha-chan's got a crush," Suzuka suggested.

"No way!" Hayate said. "She's clearly got it for Yuno-kun!"

"Everyone," Nanoha moaned. "It's not like that."

"Then what is it?" Fate asked.

"It's just that…" Nanoha thought for a moment. "Have you sensed anything different about Tsuna-kun?"

"Tsuna-kun?" Nanoha could sense her four friends staring at the boy, who gave a slight shudder as if he was aware of their staring.

"Now that you mention it," Fate said. "There is something different about him."

"Not only him," Hayate put in, "but Gokudera-kun seems different too, and the dark-haired boy we met before class; Yamamoto-kun, I think?"

"Don't forget Sasagawa," Alisa said. "That guy was practically glowing with it!"

"Do you think their mages?" Fate asked.

"I doubt it," Nanoha said. "I'm sure Lindy-san would have told us of any active mages in Namimori."

"Maybe they're like Alisa-chan and Suzuka-chan were years ago," Hayate suggested. "They aren't even aware of their magical power!"

"I don't think they're mages," Nanoha admitted as she wrote an answer on the test, "but there is definitely something different about them."

"Then we'll just have to find out what," Hayate said determined.

"How do you suppose to do that?" Alisa asked.

"I'll think of something," the Mistress of the Night Sky said.

"Ano…" Fate said then. "What's the answer to question ten?"

"FATE!"

Following the first three periods, gym came around and the five transfer students were happy to be out of those skirts. The class was now sitting on the gym floor, talking amongst themselves as they waited for the teacher to arrive.

Tsuna groaned; he really didn't want to be here. They were going to be doing the vaulting horse today and he really didn't want to embarrass himself in front of the new students, or anyone for that matter.

With that thought, Tsuna glanced over to where Kyoko was happily talking with Hana about something. Tsuna sighed; even though he had become 'Tsuna-kun' to Kyoko, he had yet to properly confess to her without making a fool out of himself like the time before.

His gaze then shifted down to where the five new girls sat talking amongst themselves about something as well. Tsuna couldn't shake the feeling that there was something was off about them, especially when he accidently ran into Nanoha-chan, yet he didn't want to make any accusations.

"Is something wrong, Jūdaime?" Gokudera asked then.

"Hmm? Oh…uh…nothing, Gokudera-kun," Tsuna said absentmindedly. "I'm just thinking that's all."

The bomber's face darkened. "It isn't about Kokuyo, is it?"

"N-No," Tsuna said, trying not to flinch under his friend's stare. Gokudera still was sore about the confrontation with Rokudo Mukuro, especially when he was told that the illusionist had possessed him to attack Tsuna.

Gokudera didn't seem pleased with Tsuna's answer, but didn't get the chance to ask any more as the teacher arrived. As with the other classes, it started out with a review of last year's materials, followed by stretching and running four laps with Tsuna finding himself able to keep up.

The horizontal bar came next and to say that everyone was surprised when Tsuna managed to perform a few pull-ups was an understatement; soon, Dame-Tsuna's improvements became the talk of the class.

"Why is everyone so surprised with Tsuna-kun?" Fate asked from where she sat.

"He's Dame-Tsuna, that's why," a student behind her exclaimed. "He's supposed to be No-Good!"

The five girls looked at each other, never suspecting their first friend would have such a reputation as 'No-Good'.

From his secret hiding spot in the room's wall, Reborn watched with satisfaction as Tsuna's 'training' was finally beginning to pay off. There was still room for improvement, but that would have to come later.

Following the class's surprise, the vaulting horse came next. Tsuna was silently dreading this as he wasn't sure he could make it pass the third level.

"Cheer up, Tsuna," Yamamoto said, giving Tsuna hearty slap on the back. "You'll do fine."

"Oi, don't act so friendly with Jūdaime, Baseball idiot," Gokudera exclaimed.

"It's okay, Gokudera-kun," Tsuna said to keep the bomber at ease. "Thanks Yamamoto."

"You want what?" The teacher's scream brought the trio out of their conversation to where Hayate was standing talking with the man.

"I said that I want to do the vault," Hayate said, crossing her arms defiantly over her chest. "Everyone else will be doing it, so I should do so as well."

"But Yagami-san," the teacher said. "Your family said not to push yourself, with your recovering and all."

"This isn't pushing myself," Hayate said. "I'll be fine."

The teacher sighed in defeat. "Alright, I'll allow it."

"I wonder what Hayate-chan is recovering from," Kyoko pondered not far from Tsuna.

Hana shrugged. "Who cares, let's just see if she can even do it."

"Good luck, Hayate-chan," Nanoha called from her seat.

"Go Hayate!" Alisa shouted, pumping a fist in the air.

"Be careful, Hayate-chan," Fate and Suzuka said together.

Yamamoto laughed. "They don't seem worried."

"Idiot," Gokudera mumbled.

Undeterred, Hayate took her place at the end of the mat and took several deep breaths. I'll just use a little magic as a boost.

With that, Hayate took off in a run; as she neared the end, she pushed a little magic into her feet and jumped for the platform. Her hands made a contact and with a push, leapt off and landed perfectly on the pad behind the vault, hands held high.

"She did it!" Nanoha exclaimed and the others soon joined in her cheering. Hayate returned their enthusiasm with a happy way and took a step to step off the landing pad. Almost immediately, a searing pain erupted in her legs and Hayate fell forward with a cry of pain, tumbling off the elevated pad.

"Hayate-chan!" a voice cried out and followed by a grunt as Hayate landed on something other than the hard wood floor.

"You okay, Hayate-chan?" the voice asked, this time from underneath her and Hayate opened her eyes to see what she had landed on.

"Tsuna-kun?" In some unexplained way, Tsuna had managed to reach the previously falling girl and catch her, though he ended up on his back and Hayate sitting on his stomach in the process.

"Oh good," Tsuna sighed with a smile. "I was worried for a moment. Are you okay?"

Bewildered, Hayate could only nod. How had Tsuna managed to do that?

Apparently, the class was wondering the same thing and had broken out in discussion.

"Did you see that?"

"Dame-Tsuna caught the new girl!"

"Is that even possible?"

"Did the world end?"

Hayate felt a little bugged about the last one as it reminded her too much of the time when she almost did cause the world to end when she was possessed by the Book of Darkness.

"Hayate-chan!" Hayate looked up to see her four friends and the teacher running over to them.

"You okay, Yagami-san?" the teacher asked.

While a little annoyed with the repeated question, Hayate replied as she shifted off of Tsuna, "Ah…yes, I am. Tsuna-kun broke my fall. Arigato, Tsuna-kun."

"It was nothing," Tsuna said, embarrassed for being complimented.

"What the hell happened, Hayate?" Alisa asked with clear panic. "You were fine till you took a step!"

"Oh it's nothing," Hayate sweetly replied. "Just a little pain in my legs, that's all."

"A little pain!" Alisa screeched, causing most of the class to back away. "How can a 'little pain' cause you to fall off a platform?" Nanoha and Suzuka immediately grabbed Alisa to hold her back from causing any more harm to their companion.

"Calm down, Alisa-chan," Nanoha said. "Tsuna-kun caught Hayate-chan, so she's okay."

Said girl huffed, clearly not convinced.

As the teacher inspected Hayate's leg, Nanoha cast a glance at Tsuna. She still couldn't believe what had just happened; one minute, Hayate was falling, and the next Tsuna used himself as a cushion for her friend's landing. If she didn't know any better, Nanoha would have immediately believed that the now concerned boy had used a form of Flash Move.

"Your calf's a bit swollen," the teacher said as he gently touched the limb, "and a little tender too. Sawada, would you escort Yagami to the nurse's office? You can be free from today's classes."

"Ah…oh…Hai," Tsuna said, slinging Hayate's right arm over his shoulders and wrapping his left arm around her middle for support. As he slowly led Hayate out of the gym, he silently prayed thanks for getting him out of there.

"Thanks for waiting for the nurse with me," Hayate said as she sat on a bed.

"I-It's no trouble," Tsuna said. "I'm excused from gym after all."

Upon arriving at the office, and seeing that the nurse was absent, Tsuna and Hayate resorted to wait for her return. Both had tried for the past fifteen minutes to start up a conversation, but were too nervous to say anything.

Finally, gathering the courage, Tsuna finally spoke.

"Ano…Why did the others react like that earlier?" he asked. "They acted really concerned, especially when you said that there was pain in your leg?"

"Oh that," Hayate said with a small smile, turning her eyes to her legs. "You see…up until about three years ago, I was unable to walk."

Tsuna stared. He had just seen this girl perform a simple gym activity—that the teacher had warned her against—and it seemed impossible that she had once been unable to walk.

"For most of my life," Hayate continued, "I suffered from an unknown illness that paralyzed my lower body. It had begun to spread to my organs by the time we found a cure and, if my family and friends hadn't been there to support me through the therapies, I doubt I'd be able to walk."

"That's scary," Tsuna said. He had been subjected to various explosions, flying bullets, even a sadistic illusionist and survived and yet, Hayate had almost died from an illness.

Tsuna wondered if his life was indeed more blessed than others, especially since he had to put up with a psychotic tutor with the appearance of a baby that would willingly subject him to every life-ending scenario possible.

"You alright, Tsuna-kun?" Hayate asked, bringing Tsuna out of his thoughts. "You look a little depressed."

"Ah, it's nothing," Tsuna said. "I just can't believe you went through all that."

Hayate smiled. "I can't believe it either, but it now seems like a distant, bad dream."

Tsuna smiled back.

"I'm home," Tsuna called out as he opened the door to his home.

"Welcome home, Tsu-kun," Nana called from the kitchen. "How was today?"

"It was good." Tsuna said as he entered the dining area.

"Ciaossu, Tsuna," Reborn said from his place at the table where he was reading the newspaper. "I heard that there are some new students."

"Oh really?" Nana asked with delight. "What are they like?"

"They're from Uminari," Tsuna said as he sat down. "They're in my class and are really nice."

"Takamachi Nanoha, Fate T. Harloawn, Yagami Hayate, Alisa Bannings, and Tsukimura Suzuka, ages are fourteen years old and all attended the same school," Reborn said as he turned his attention to the spaghetti on the table. "Very interesting girls."

"Reborn!" Tsuna stood up from his chair. "You were spying on them?"

"Gathering information is a basic skill, Dame-Tsuna," the pint-sized hitman said. "As the future boss of Vongola, you should acquire this skill."

"How many times do I have to tell you?" Tsuna said loudly. "I don't want to be a mafia boss!"

"Those girls might make a good addition to the family as well," Reborn added, completely ignoring his student.

"Reborn!"

"We're home!" Hayate announced as she opened the door to the massive apartment that they shared as a group.

"Welcome home," Lindy Harloawn said from her place in front of the stove. "How was your first day?"

"It was great," Alisa said stretching, "but I'm glad it's over."

"Where's everyone else?" Suzuka asked.

"Shopping for food," Lindy said. "Can't search for Jewel Seeds on an empty stomach. You girls up for a snack?"

"Hai!" five voices chorused as chairs were pulled back from the table.

"So," Lindy said as she set a plate of sliced fruit on the table. "Did you make any friends today?"

"Yeah," Nanoha said, taking a bite of apple.

"We think they have magic, Momma," Fate said.

Lindy raised an eyebrow. "Really? Tell me more."

The five girls recounted the tale of their first school day to the TSAB Admiral, from the run in encounter with Tsuna and the meeting of the others. They explained their suspicions, including Tsuna managing to catch Hayate and the energy spike that seemed to occur when Tsuna, Gokudera, and Yamamoto were standing near each other.

"I've never sensed anything like it," Fate said. "It's as if their energy is a whirlwind yet is so calm that it's hardly noticeable."

"That's very interesting indeed," Lindy said with a smile. "I'd like to meet these young men."

"You're not planning an Omiai, are you?" Alisa asked with a not amused look.

"Goodness no," Lindy said. "You girls are too young for that in my book. I just want to see for myself if what you say is true."

"Then let's invite Tsuna and all his friends," Hayate said happily.

"It's final!" Alisa cheered, raising a fist in the air. "Let's invite them over for a 'Meet the Family' Dinner."

Everyone agreed.

"That still sounds like an Omiai!" Nanoha exclaimed.

Little Bookwyrm: And done. This is my second crossover and, for the longest time, I wondered what sort of adventures these two groups would have if they had the chance to meet. Next time is "Meet the Family", let's just hope Tsuna can survive it.

Reborn: Of course he will. I'm training him to be a Mafia Boss after all.

Little Bookwyrm: *Sweatdrop* But he still insists that he doesn't want to be one.

Reborn: *Smirk*

Little Bookwyrm: *Thinking* I'm not liking that smirk!

Reinforce Zwei: Will I be in the next chapter too?

Little Bookwyrm: *Stares hard* That's going to be a bit of a problem, with you being the size of a doll and all.

Reinforce Zwei: Aww…

Little Bookwyrm: Don't worry. I'll make it work somehow. I'm not an aspiring author for nothing, you know.

Reborn: I wonder if you'd make a good Mafia Boss.

Little Bookwyrm: Don't even think about it!
