P.S. this is not beta-read

Natsuki was sleeping peacefully in her bedroom when a sudden weight landed on her woke her up. Being a "Doesn't care if the sky starts to fall down" person, she ignored the object, therefore, earning her a smack on the head. She immediately jolted awake and prepare to strike whatever that smacked her on the head with a paper fan that she always keep with her on her nightstand.
The figure immediately dodged the incoming paper fan skill fully and delivered another smacked on her wrist, thus disarming her.
"Ouch!" she yelped in pain and turn on her light. The culprit was dressed in black suit and wore a black hat. Around his neck was a yellow pacifier. "Reborn!" She whispered harshly.
"Ciaossu," he greeted.
"Ciaossu my butt, its freaking 5:30 in the morning, I need my beauty sleep, now shoo, shoo," She tried to shoo him away by making a "Shoo, Shoo" hand motion.
Reborn whacked her hands away and said, "Natsuki, you agreed to join the Family correct?" he asked.
"Yeah," She mumbled and rubbed her hands together, trying to rub away the burning sensation on her red hands.
"Good, as one of the members of the Vongola, you must learn to fight," He said.
"Pft…Who said I can't fight," she said with dignity.
"Prove it," Reborn said and smirked.
Natsuki suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Did he saw through her bluff?
"Well, I can fight but not that good. My grandpa once taught me how to handle a yari, which is a Japanese spear," Natsuki sighed, admitting defeat.
"Thought so," He grinned, "starting from today, you will have to wake up at 5:30 sharp for extra training,"
"Eh? Why?" Natsuki whined in shocked.
"Besides having good information gathering skill, you must also train your body, and that is the basic if you want to be in a mafia. Now go change and meet outside. I'll give you 5 minutes." He said and the floor opened up and he fell in. The moment he disappeared, Natsuki immediately went to change. She does not want to be late and risk getting shot in the head by reborn. By the time she went out to meet Reborn.
"4 minutes 59 seconds, one more second and you would have been bomb to dead, good job!" Reborn smiled.
"What? Why didn't you tell me?"
"But I trust you to make it in time," He said sweetly, giving her one of his baby look.
"Why you," She growled.
"Go run around the town, I'll meet you near the river in half an hour, remember, you only have 30 minutes to finish the lap," Reborn said and disappeared behind the wall, giving Natsuki no chance to counter.
Her jaw dropped and she stared at the spot where Reborn was before. She reluctantly started to jog while mumbling stream of curse words beneath her breath.
After approximately 28 minutes later, she finally finished with her lap and was sitting on the grass field next to the river. Reborn was no where to be found. She was panting for breath. Suddenly, she saw a boy around her age, with black hair slowly jogging down the grass field slope and when he noticed her, he smiled brightly and waved.
"Hey, you in my class aren't you?" He asked when he got closer to her.
"Uh… Yamamoto… Takeshi?" She said hesitantly, not sure if she got the right name.
"Yup! You are Hoshina Natsuki, right?" He smiled brightly.
I nodded and asked, "What are you doing so early up in the morning?"
"Practice, I need to practice more so I can play better Baseball. What about you?" He inquired.
"You could say training," She sighed.
"Wow, that's awesome. Ne, you play baseball?" Yamamoto suddenly asked.
"A little," She said "I'm not that good though," getting an idea of what he is implying.
"Ahahaha, that's fine, you want to practice with me?" Yamamoto offered.
"Don't blame me when I messed up your training," Natsuki nodded.
"Yosh, let's warm up by throwing the ball," He smiled and took out a baseball. When he tried to give the glove to Natsuki, he noticed that he only have one glove. Natsuki saw this and tried to say "its okay" but she was interrupted by Reborn.
"Here, use this glove, Natsuki," Reborn suddenly appeared and tossed her a glove.
"Yo, are you her brother or something?" Yamamoto said.
Reborn merely smile and said, "No"
"Just ignore him, and let's play," Natsuki said and putted on the baseball glove.
"Yosh, here I go," Yamamoto said and get into a stance.
Natsuki suddenly saw a tiger behind Yamamoto as he threw the ball. Almost as fast as lightning, the ball sailed across the air and was about to hit Natsuki. She shut her eyes to brace herself and randomly raised her hand to block the incoming bullet. Luck must have smiled upon her for she'd successfully caught the bullet.
"Nice catch!" Yamamoto praised and laughed.
"Uh-he-he-he… Pft…" She chuckled nervously. 'Phew, thank god for whatever power out there that helped me,' she thought.
"Natsuki-chan, I'm ready," He called.
"Okay, Here I GO~" she shouted as she throw the ball with all her might. Yamamoto eyes narrowed and Reborn watched in interest.
The ball fluttered its way across the air and landed pathetically two feet away from her. A moment of silent passed by and sweat-drops started to roll down the back of their heads. "Quack!" the crow quacked.
"Natsuki, practice some more while I go prepare something for Tsuna," Reborn said and disappeared behind a bush.
A corner magically appeared and Natsuki went off to sulk. Heavy gray clouds lingered above her head as she mumbled unintelligently.
"Ah Natsuki-chan, you never throw a baseball before have you?" Yamamoto asked as he approached her corner.
"So what?" she turned around and stared palely at him.
'Not good, she's way too depressing,' Yamamoto gulped.
"N-Nothing, why don't I teach you how to throw properly?" He offered, trying to cheer her up.
"Really?" She looked at him hopefully.
"Yeah," Yamamoto smiled bright fully at him.
Thus Yamamoto spends the rest of his practice time teaching Natsuki how to throw a baseball. It's turned out that she was gripping the ball wrong thus could not throw a straight ball.
"Pft… Why couldn't this be as easy as handling a spear?" She muttered to herself as she failed another attempt.
"Ma maa, try again. I'm sure you'll be able to throw it this time," Yamamoto encouraged.
"Alright,"
'Damn Reborn, if this wasn't because of him I would be sleeping peacefully in my room,' she thought. "Curse you!" she shouted and throws the ball. On the other side, Yamamoto saw the ball was coming at him at high speed but not as high as him. He immediately caught it. Natsuki stared at the ball and said, "I-I did it! I DID IT!"
"That was awesome!" Yamamoto said as he run to her.
The Sky is much brighter than before, indicating that it's around 7 o'clock.
"Wow, time fly by sure fast," Yamamoto said.
"Yeah, are you going yet?" Natsuki asked as she walked up the slope.
"Yeah," He smiled and walked with her the rest of the way. Then he parted to go to his home.
Reborn showed up once again and greeted, "Ciaossu,"
"Pft… I spend an hour practicing how to pitch. Tell me again, what part of it was training?" She inquired angrily.
"That was my mistake; I forgot I have to prepare something for Tsuna today. A new student will be transfer to your class today," He smirked. "Your assignment for today is to find more information for Gokudera Hayato,"
"Assignment, since when are you my boss?" She asked.
"Since now," he said and pointed the gun at her. "I want to test your information gathering skill; you have by the end of today to finish the assignment," He concluded and disappeared.
'Damn you,' she thought and walk into her house.
