"Giotto. Giotto?" A stern yet concerned voice called out while knocking on the door of the study room. The study room belongs to none other than his beloved boss- Giotto de Vongola. Looking at the time, it is already 7am in the morning and it is the time to have breakfast. Knocking outside the door, he waited for his boss that is inside the room to give the permission to enter. After waiting for a few minutes, he started to get worried, for there was no reply from the other male.

"Giotto? Are you in there?" He tried calling his boss again. 'Maybe, he was not inside…' He thought to himself, but he quickly dismissed that thought. It's not possible for Giotto not to be inside his study room. As usual, there are lots of paperwork to be completed and signed, and if Giotto would to not complete looking through them, Giotto himself might get killed by a certain someone. Thinking about this gives the male a cold chill down his spine, he shivered a bit and turned his attention back to his boss once more.

"Giotto? I'm coming in now…" He turned the door knob and opens the door. He was not surprised to see his boss sleeping soundly and peacefully on the study desk. Signing, he walked towards the sleeping boss. The study desk was filled with stacks of paperwork and files. The desk, no, the room was in a mess. Considering that the floor was scattered with pieces of paper that had most likely fell out when Giotto was going through them. He would really want to clean up the mess for his boss, but waking Giotto up is a more important task on hand now. If Giotto is seen sleeping on the study desk with his paperwork half-completed and late for breakfast, resulting everyone to wait for him, a certain someone would definitely NOT let him off. Giotto HAD, by hook or by crook wake up within 5 minutes.

"Giotto, wake up." He called out to his boss softly beside his ears. Seeing that there is no reaction from the sleeping male, he proceeded to shake his boss on his shoulders gently. Giotto only frowned a bit and continue to dreaming. The other male was about try waking him up again when he sensed a familiar presence at the door. He need not look up to know who that person was. Now, he only prayed for the safety of his beloved boss.

Giotto was having a nice dream…a really nice dream! He didn't want to wake up at all. In his dream, there is no Vongola, no Mafia, no decimo and most importantly no…"REBORN" Giotto unconsciously let out that someone's name. Yes! To him, a world without that demonic tutor is heaven. Just think about it, a world without Reborn means no morning wake up calls using a 1000 ton leon hammer, no one to point a leon gun that is loaded with bullets at him, no one to give him training(although Giotto refers it as EXTREME tourturing) and most importantly, no one to discipline him.( wait, Giotto has Alaude for the job already. Reborn just makes it more well…complicated). He would really have continuing dreaming on but something had been bothering him for a while now. That something AKA his Vongola intuition had been bothering him. His vongola intuition had been warning him of something since yesterday night. However, Giotto was cooped up with paperwork and didn't bother to give much thought about it. Right now, his Vongola Intuition seems to be screaming "Danger!". Giotto trusts that his Vongola Intuition to be 100% accurate, after all, it had help him get out of dangers and make decisions. Giotto, being Giotto, was so absorbed in his dream that he didn't want to bother about his intuition. Anyways, if there IS danger, his guardians will be there to take care of it. No worries! Contented with his decision, he continue to sleep on. Well, today will be the day that Giotto pays the price of not listening to the Vongola Intution.

At the same time, the man beside the sleeping Giotto was panicking. Not only panicking, but also sweating bullets, literally! He dared not look at the figure at the door directly, who knows what wil happen to him if he did. The red-haired man held his breath and looked at his boss. Who is still sleeping and oblivious to the immediate danger. The figure smirked and the chameleon that was on his fedora turned into a gun. He walked to the front of the study desk and then paused. The pink-haired man on the other hand, opted to take a few steps back, silently praying for Giotto's safety. He knew at this point of time, no one, not even god can safe his boss. But he hoped that the punishment would be light, even though it would never happen.

The figure smirked again, his fedora covering his eyes. Whenever he does that, someone is in for trouble. And in this chapter, that someone is Giotto. He jumped to the desk and the gun transformed and changed its shape to a hammer, on which was in labelled "1000 or more tons". The pink-haired man gulped and closed his eyes, waiting for the figure to deliver the blow. He did not have to wait long, for in a split second, the hammer was on his boss's head with a loud 'BANG!'. And Giotto immediately woke up, clutching his head in pain. "OWWW!" He screamed. He was just having an innocent and nice dream and something, someone just had to interrupt. "Hey! What was that for? You bastard!" He adjust his vision and when his vision becomes clear, he felt fear crept up his back. Infront of him, was a nightmare in reality, a demon on earth. Infront of him, was his tutor, the famous Vongola hitman- Arcobaleno Reborn.

"Hahaha…Ahhh…Good Morning Reborn!" Giotto tried to liven up the tension by appearing cheerful and laughing his way off "What are you doing here early in the morning?" He asked the tutor not so innocently. His face was plastered with a bright smile, but deep within, he was begging and screaming for help. Who knows what is installed for him this time. The last time this scenario happens, he was kindly given more training and paperwork by his tutor. When you associate training with Reborn, it means a hell lot of torture and torment. Not forgetting that your whole body will be aching and covered with injuries at the end of it. Reborn, being a sadistic person, would rub in by giving Gitto more work to do. Once again, the words 'more work' and Reborn would give one product, Giotto 99% dead by the end of the whole training session. Turning to his left, he saw his right-hand man, G. He shot a glare at the red-haired man that says" why didn't you wake me up?". To which the other shot back "I tried, but you went on snoring like a pig." They were both in a heated staring contest and fighting with their eye communication.

Back to the chapter, Reborn was not so pleased to see his student sleeping on the study desk. Ignoring Giotto, he randomly picked up and file and glanced through its contents. After he was done reading, Reborn smiled at Giotto. And when Giotto sees that smile, he knows what to do. Reborn, being Reborn, the cool and calm type, NEVER EVER smile. When he does that, it would be when he is planning something that is terrible for Giotto and his guardians or when he promises to give a hell lot of tortur…training.

"Giotto…" Reborn's smile grew wider. While Giotto's face paled. "I see that without my guidance, you had grown slack over these few months." Reborn rubbed Leon on its head, his eyes shadowed and unpredictable. Giotto held his breath and waited for Reborn to finish his sentence. Though…he could already guess what his tutor had in mind. "Let's start training from this moment onwards." Leon transforms to a gun and was pointed as Giotto. Opening fire, Giotto immediately dodged and enters his Hyper Dying Will Mode. He quickly evaded all of Reborn's bullets and using his flames, flew higher. Reborn was not going to let his student off that easily. Reborn loaded a special kind of bullet and aimed at Giotto. Taken by surprised, Giotto was shoot by the bullet in his back and feeling weak, he dropped to the ground. Giotto groaned at the impact and registered that the bullet made him weak. He was able to use his flames but do not have sufficient energy to fly. There goes his escape plan, he thought as he faces his tutor. Knowing that the only way to stop Reborn is to win him, he concentrated and charged and him. Reborn predicted that attack coming and he blocked it with no effort. Sounds of clashing fists and explosions could be heard throughout the whole mansion. But no one stepped in to stop, for they WILL get killed if not seriously injured. When this kind of situation happens, Giotto's guradians, even his right-hand man and storm guardian G, would rather sit back and watch.

The fight went for a few hours and by the time Reborn decided to let Giotto off, breakfast was already over and the other are in the midst of having their lunch. Limping, Giotto walked painfully to the dining room with his tutor behind him, silently laughing at his dame-student. Giotto kept glaring at Reborn, all the way to the dining room but the infant only acted innocent, pretending not to notice.

"Good Morning, Everyone." Giotto greeted his guardian tiredly and sat on his seat. Noticing their boss presence, his guardians immediately stopped eating for a moment and greeted him back. Giotto nodded slightly, indicating that he acknowledge them. He scanned the room and realised that all his guardians, except Daemon are present.

"Alaude,"Giotto called his cloud guardian's attention. "Why is Daemon?" he asked.

Alaude only "hnn" and continue with his meal.

"Hey! Don't you dare be so rude to the Decimo!" G shouted at the indifferent Alaude.

Alaude smirked and ignore G. G,feeling furious, took out his gun and pointed at Alaude. "Bastard! How dare you ignore me!" He pulled gently on the trigger, while Alaude did nothing but continue eating. Alaude's indifference made G angrier,seeing that a fight will happen at any moment, the other guardians immediately tried to break the tension. Reborn only look and waited for the fight to begin. They were all failed attempts and at this point of time, Alaude had already taken out his handcuffs, waiting for G, to make his move.

"BOTH OF YOU! THAT'S ENOUGH!" Giotto commanded. All turn towards the Vongola Decimo and as if on cue, G and Alaude kept their weapons and resumed eating. The others also did the same. Giotto signed and rubbed his temples. Trying hard not to let out cries of pain, Giotto stretched his muscles and checked his wounds. Luckily, Reborn went light on him. He did not receive any serious injuries or deep cuts. Only slight abrasions and bruises with a bit of bleeding at the corner of his lips. However, the study room and courtyard were not that lucky. Within a few hours, Giotto and Reborn already managed to destroy the whole of the courtyard, and created a few holes on the walls of the study room. Giotto frowned at the damage that was caused and felt a headache coming when he receives the bill for reparing. God! Reborn is gonna be SO dead! He cursed mentally and unknowingly lets out a death aura. Everyone in the room( except Reborn) shivered and tensed up at the sudden change in mood in his boss.

When this happens, everyone would keep really quiet and not made any noise around Giotto. A boss releasing death aura is to be feared. The dining room suddenly become really quiet and the air thicken with tension. Even the maids only served the food and left the dining room running. They all know that it would only take a small push for Giotto to snap. They all prayed that no one would be that stupid to do that.

Unfortunately, Unluckily, However, Someone just had to do it.

The door of the dining room was pushed opened forcefully. Daemon, Giotto's mist guardian had returned. As to where Daemon was, Giotto found out from Asari that he had been out all morning with Elena. (His girlfriend of 3 years)

"Good Afternoon, Giotto." Daemon Spade, his mist guardian greeted sarcastically as he let out a snicker. "How was your breakfast? Mine was great! I got to spend the whole morning with my dear Elena." He started as he glided skilfully to his seat. "Oh wait! I forgot, you didn't have any. My my Giotto."

The other guardians couldn't help but have the urge to punch him for his stupidity. Asari tried to shoot him some looks asking no, begging him to shut up but Daemon failed to notice them. They watched the two men and tensed as they saw Giotto's face turning darker and darker.

"Oh…And, get someone to repair the courtyard. It was a horrible sight, with all the trees burned and…" Daemon continued rabbling and by then, the guardians had already given up trying to warn Daemon. Instead, they shifted towards the exit and decided once Giotto snapped, they would dash out and escape.

"You should really set an example. You are the one who kept ordering us to stop destroying things. But yet, you destroyed the whole courtyard." Daemon scolded voice lingering with hints of playfulness.

"Not only the courtyard, but the study room too." Reborn added on. Talk about adding fuel to the fire, the guardians thought to themselves, feeling their clothes drenched with sweat of , the lightning guardian is already at the verged of crying. Alaude is definitely the only one that is able to keep his cool and face straight in these situations. But there is still a tiny hint of fear in his eyes. Knuckle, the sun guardian whispered prayers, mostly for Daemon. Daemon have no idea what he got himself into.

Any moment now…

Giotto stood up silently and cracked his knuckles. His Hyper Dying Will Flame lit and burining brightly on his fore-head.

"Daemon…" Giotto spoke with an eerie voice. Daemon finally realised what all those signals and gestures meant. He punched himself mentally for cursed. Turning to the guardians, he paled to see that they, together with Reborn are already gone from the room. That leaves…

Daemon turned to face Giotto…

And inside the dining room, a long piercing scream of pain and agony is heard.
