When Reborn had delivered the home tutor flyer for the future Vongola boss, he had been sure that he would be training a loser student who generally failed at life. He looked over the paper one more time: "Are you looking for a tutor? We can raise your children to become future world leaders. Our tutors are young and handsome! They will teach twenty-four hours a day, free of charge, as long as they get room and board."
It seemed like a fail-safe plan.
Reborn returned to his excellent hiding spot, a thicket of bushes, and reviewed the report of Sawada Tsunayoshi once again. It could never hurt to be certain of his next targe-student's background.
Sawada Tsunayoshi
Age: 13
Gender: Male
Height: 5'2"
Abilities: Failing in life
Relationships: Sawada Nana (Mother), Sawada Iemitsu (Father)
Brief Summary: A loser who fails at everything and gets an average of 20 percent on his tests. Crushing fear of chihuahuas. Has a hopeless crush on Sasagawa Kyoko. Physically weak and has no friends.
Well. He could work with that. He closed the manila folder and slipped it back under his hat. Dame-Tsuna seemed to be even worse than No-Good Dino. The hitman smirked as he imagined all the different ways he could make his new student suffer. He would need to work on his physical fitness, and oh, he couldn't wait to see him being shot with a dying will bullet. He would be even more fun than Dino!
With a glint in his eye, he made his way to the doorstep and rang the bell. After a few long moments, a petite woman opened the door.
"Oh? Who might you be?" the brunette asked as she stooped down. Reborn assumed that this was Sawada Nana, Iemitsu's wife.
"I'm the home tutor, Reborn!" he announced.
"Ara! That's right! Tsu-kun is going to school soon, so you might want to meet him now before he leaves," she informed. "Tsu-kun! Come down here! You have someone to meet!" Thundering footsteps sounded above them, shaking the whole house.
"What? Who is it, Kaa-san?" a deep voice bellowed. The mysterious person crashed down the stairs, followed by a grunt. "These stairs are too small!"
Reborn blinked.
He then blinked again.
He had seen many questionable things in his life. He was involved with the mafia and held the title of the World's Greatest Hitman, after all. This time, however, he was confident that nothing will ever be as … surprising as this.
Sawada Tsunayoshi was made of pure muscle. He towered over his mother, in fact, he was crouching because he was much taller than the room itself. He was big, buff, and beefy. Even his school uniform was stretched across really far due to his broad shoulders. Heck, it looked like he could uproot the whole house with ease. With the amount of clumsiness that he showed earlier, he didn't even want to know the damage bills.
This threw everything off. He obviously did not need any help for his physical fitness. He was pretty sure that he couldn't be called a loser with his gigantic muscles. Reborn's fedora shadowed his eyes as he thought about what he could do with the useless spy who had given him the FAR from accurate information. Maybe he would make him go through this beefy teen.
"Kaa-san, is this the person you wanted to show me?" the loud voice boomed.
"Yes, Tsu-kun, Reborn-san here will be your home tutor from now on!" Nana giggled, clapping her hands on her cheeks. "Isn't he adorable?" Tsuna got down onto the floor to meet Reborn at eye level. Cupping his large hands together, he let Reborn hop on and brought him up to his face.
"Oh, hey there little guy, you're pretty cute! I love your curly sideburns!" he laughed. He said it in a surprisingly soft way, and he actually handled Reborn with care. Reborn decided that his new student wasn't too bad after all. There was still one thing to address, however.
"When."
It wasn't a question. It was a statement.
After a few seconds of silence, Nana piped up, "Oh! Tsu-kun hit puberty!"
Reborn knew that this was going to be a long day.
