Author's rant: I tried.. But it came out kind of boring, so bear with me, will ya? And also, can you believe this took that long to write? To everyone who favourited, alerted and for the one who added it to a community (first time! O.o), thank you! And thanks to my two sexy reviewers. This chapter's for you. X)
Warning: AU, Hints of shounen-ai, crackness and uh.. Zombies?
Disclaimer: Two words: Amano. Akira.
silent-insaneminako LOL, with all Goku's swearing? XD And yeah, poor Reborn…(sarcasm) Hey, that shopkeeper thing gives me an idea…I might use it 8D Thanks for the review –heart- PuroCielloFiamme Here's your update, kora!
Chapter 2: The Vongola is… What?
Tick…
Tsuna glanced nervously at the classroom door.
Tock…
Yeah, you read right. The brunet's currently in school.
Tick…
Tsuna turned to face the clock. It was exactly 8.00 a.m… He hoped that the new teacher was nice as he wiped his sweaty palms onto his trousers.
No, the reason why the brunet was nervous was not because he was starting a new school semester (surprisingly). It was for a different reason altogether.
The reason was his home tutor, Reborn.
A few hours ago…
"Wake up, Dame-Tsuna."
And with that, Reborn landed a flying kick onto Tsuna's unsuspecting head.
"H-HIEE!", as expected, the brunet fell of the bed and landed with a thud.
"W-where am I?"
The home tutor sighed, "What kind of idiot doesn't recognize his own bedroom?"
Gokudera wanted to defend his beloved Jyuudaime, but there wasn't much he could say about such a true fact. Yamamoto just 'Ahahaha'-ed.
"M..My room…", Tsuna repeated, narrowing his eyes, "OH YEAH! I PASSED OUT, DIDN'T I?"
"Like a girl."
"Wait.. Why'd I pass out again?", Tsuna asked, furrowing his brows further, unaware that it made him look oh-so girly.
"I told you that you were the 10th heir to a zombie slaying family."
And with that, Tsuna fainted again.
"STOP DOING THAT."
Reborn slapped Tsuna's face over and over again before the brunet regained consciousness.
"G-guh…"
Reborn smirked, "Good. Now listen to what I have to say."
Tsuna rolled his eyes but sat upright anyway.
Reborn opened his mouth to speak, but then noticed Yamamoto and Gokudera.
"Ah, you two. Come here, come here", the spartan's smirk widened.
The duo merely exchanged glances and came forward to Tsuna's bed.
"I want all of you to hear this."
"I assume you all have heard of zombies…", Reborn glared at Tsuna, "So I'll skip the zombie stuff."
"What you probably didn't know was that zombies are very well real. They're usually corpses which got injected with the zombification serum."
"Z-zombification?", Tsuna asked, eyes widening. That did not sound like a nice word.
"Yes", the tutor nodded, "As the name implies, it pretty much means that they returned to the living and got turned into these undead creatures –zombies."
Gokudera nodded, taking note of what Reborn had said. "Then what about that zombie slaying family thing?"
"Ah", Reborn smirked, "The Vongola."
'Clam?', Gokudera wondered. [1]
"It's an old zombie slaying family which has been passed down through the years. Right now, it's already at its 9th generation!", Reborn proclaimed proudly.
"However, the Ninth is getting old and we really need a new Head", Reborn stated, "Which is where you come in."
"H-HIEE? ME?", Tsuna shrieked, nearly falling over (again).
"Yes", Reborn sighed, "Sadly, you."
Tsuna pouted at the 'sadly' bit.
"Anyway, you just so happen to be the great, great, great grandson of the Vongola Primo, which is why you're in the running to be the tenth."
"In the running… Which means I might have a chance to escape!", Tsuna fist-pumped.
"What was that?"
"N-NOTHING!"
"Ahaha! Sounds like fun!"
"Hmm.. So the Jyuudaime really IS the Jyuudaime!"
Reborn turned to face the duo.
"Oh, I totally forgot about you two."
"Why, you…", Gokudera clenched his fists, only to be restrained by a laughing Yamamoto.
"Don't worry, you guys won't be left out", Reborn said, smiling an all-too dazzling smile. Which meant trouble.
"Since that dame person over there is going to be the Tenth", Reborn began, pointing to Tsuna, "He'll be needing guardians. Seven of them, to be exact."
"SEVEN GUARDIANS! How will we even get that many?", Tsuna yelled.
"Patience, Young Tuna. I have my ways", Reborn began, before smirking, "Anyway, you've already got two guardians."
When Tsuna raised an eyebrow, Reborn simply turned to Gokudera and Yamamoto.
The brunet gulped.
"Yamamoto Takeshi and Gokudera Hayato. You two are hereby appointed as the Rain guardian and the Storm guardian of the Vongola Tenth, respectively!", the Spartan proclaimed.
Yamamoto predictably laughed and said, "This sounds like fun! A zombie slaying game, hahaha!"
Gokudera (also predictably) whacked the back of Yamamoto's head, scolded him and announced that he'd be proud to be the (self-proclaimed) 'Right-Hand man!'
"Wha… No way! You guys are actually gonna go along with this?", Tsuna stared at his two friends in disbelief.
"Why not?", Yamamoto simply replied, not noticing the smirk on Reborn's face. "It's just a game, right?"
Tsuna stared in wide-eyed shock.
Gokudera glared at Yamamoto, "Idiot! This is serious!"
"Hahaha, Hayato-kun is already in character!"
"Indeed."
As their conversation continued, Tsuna just sat in a corner and tried not to cry.
Back to the present time, the dame-brunet was currently in class, looking worriedly at the clock. Reborn had mentioned something about a…surprise in school.
And the suspense was killing our poor tuna.
Tsuna rubbed his palms together and prayed for the best.
SLAM!
The door was kicked open, effectively getting the attention of most students who were either talking or sleeping.
Tsuna paled.
"Hello, class."
"Hi..Hii…"
"I'm your new homeroom teacher."
"Hiiiii…."
"Call me Reboyama-sensei."
"HIEEEEEE!"
And you can probably guess what happened.
"Jyuu…"
Tsuna tried to pop an eye open, but his vision was still blurry. And now he was hearing things. Great.
"Jyuuuudaiimee!"
That shocked Tsuna out of his trance.
"W-what happened?"
"You passed out, Tsuna", Yamamoto answered with a hearty grin.
"Yes, you did. Try to fix that habit of yours, Dame-Tsuna."
"HIEE!", Tsuna shrieked when he saw Reborn in the front of his class. So this wasn't a nightmare after all.
The brunet quickly jumped off the floor and dragged Reborn outside the class.
"What do you think you're doing?", Tsuna shout-whispered.
"Teaching you class", Reborn replied, matter-of-factly.
"Yeah, but WHY?"
Reborn smirked.
And thus, Tsuna regretted having asked his question.
"To train you."
Tsuna raised an eyebrow, "Huh?"
Reborn sighed and rubbed his temples. "Train you to be a zombie slayer. There isn't much time, so I need to take drastic measures."
"H-HIEE! I already told you, I'm NOT gonna be a zombie slayer!"
"Oh, really?", Reborn cocked his gun (that appeared from nowhere) at the brunet's head.
Tsuna pouted, "That's no fair!"
"Suck it up. You're gonna be a zombie slayer and that's final. There's going to be training at lunch. Remember to bring Gokudera and Yamamoto."
And with that, Tsuna was kicked back to class.
"Kufufufu… It seems as though we have been found out~", chuckled a male whose hair looked suspiciously like…a pineapple. He ran a grey hand through his indigo hair as he turned to face his subordinates.
An annoying-looking short-haired girl whipped around to face him, "Seriously?"
"Which one of you idiots gave our plans away?", she turned to face three others.
"Fufu~ M.M-chan, there's no need for that. The Arcobaleno found it out themselves~", the pineapple-man said calmly.
"Mou… If you say so, Mukuro-sama…", M.M pouted.
"Che, stupid bitch suspecting us…", a blonde boy –Ken- muttered.
The bespectacled boy next to him –Chikusa- merely pushed up his glasses.
"S-so.. What do we do now, Mukuro-sama?", came a soft voice from a girl who beared the same pineappleish hair style.
"Ah, nothing, of course~", Mukuro said with a smile. "There's nothing to worry about, dear Chrome."
"Our invasion will go as planned."
