AN: I don't own Katekyo Hitman Reborn or its characters, I own some of the ocs in this, others used I have permission from the creators to use.
-aaaaaaa-
To say Tsunayoshi Sawada was worried would be an understatement. He was completely terrified. Gokudera, for some reason or another, hadn't awoken since he was in the hospital, even though his wounds weren't as bad as initially percieved.
Reborn hadn't been home since he went to visit Gokudera in the hospital, and that was an entire two days ago.
Right now he was walking home from school, he stopped briefly and looked up to the greying sky. He saw one single white cloud drifting lazily by. He watched as it dissipated into the air and a sense of dread formed within him. He didn't know why but he turned around and ran back towards the school dropping his book bag to run just a little faster.
-aaa=
Hibari was glaring at the intruder. The... stupid masked herbivore...
"School hours are over. It is against school rules to have weapons on campus." The prefect glared at Splice. The masked man only laughed as he reached into his pocket withdrawing a miniscule, black book.
"Hibari Kyoya, Cloud Guardian of Vongola Decimo. Threat level- Hyper Lethal 1. Hey, you should be fun."
Splice read before putting the book away.
Hibari rushed at Splice swinging his tonfas at the man's head. Splice simply leaned back to avoid the blow and jumped to the side as he struck again. Splice grabbed his scythe and slashed at the young 'skylark', who quickly sidestepped before running at him again. Hibari began striking quickly at Splice who blocked each strike with the handle of his weapon. They both jumped away from each other and paused. Hibari reached for his box and Splice smiled under his mask. As soon as Hibari was moving it towards his ring, Splice rushed and closed the distance, grabbing Hibari's wrist. He slammed the weighted end of his scythe into the boy's chest before he jumped back away as Hibari swung a tonfa.
The Skylark went to open his box again but found it was gone; he looked towards his opponent who was tossing the box up and down in one hand, holding his scythe with the other. "Looking for this. Heh heh, you know, I heard you Vongola people are nothing without your box weapons." He slipped the box in his pocket. "Without it I'd say you're more of a Beta level threat then a Hyper Lethal." Splice ran at Hibari and swung downward, Hibari rose his tonfas to block planting them near the top of the scythe. The bottom third of the scythe handle popped off, connected by a chain which Splice slammed into the side of Hibari's right knee Causing the boy to fall on said knee and roll away to avoid the blade.
Hibari looked at the weapon, it wasn't a scythe, it was a three part pole with a scythe blade on one end, and weight on the other, that could come together to seem to be a scythe. Hibari stood up and glared.
"What's wrong, can the little bird not fly with its wings clipped?" Splice asked he ran at Hibari slashing show ducked low and swung up slamming one tonfa into the mans chest and bringing the other one up to hit Splice over the head causing him to tumble over, Splice rolled away from another strike and hopped up.
"Hey, not bad." He said looking Hibari over again. The boy's knee was broken but he stood perfectly straight and moved just as fast, the boy was good, not to mention, if he hadn't grabbed Hibari's box the boy would out class him, he didn't want to admit it but the teen was stronger than him.
Splice stood up and got ready for the boy to attack. And in a moment, Hibari rushed and swung his tonfas at Splice who blocked both blows before pushing Hibari away and slashing him across the chest. He spun the weapon and swung the weight towards the Skylark's head.
The blow stopped approximately an inch away from Kyoya's head. Splice looked behind himself to see a flaming gloved fist flying at his face, the fist collided and sent the man flying through the wall of the school and out into the front of the main building. Before he could stand fully he was struck in the chest, then the head, the strikes continued to come until he as sent flying through the gate and onto the street. He struggled up and jumped away. He looked at the new presence. "Vongola Decimo… I can't take him, let alone both, and attacking him would be bad." Splice muttered and retreated.
The flame faded from Tsuna's forehead as he ran to his Cloud Guardian.
"H-Hibari-san are you ok!?" he asked panic, the prefect bashed Tsuna over the head with a tonfa. "Stupid Herbivore, don't interrupt my fights again." He said walking away. Tsuna watched his Guardian was limping on his right leg slightly. Holding his head, he decided he needed to find Reborn, right away. First Gokudera, and now Hibari, he was worried someone was trying to take out his guardians.
Splice was sitting down on the roof of a building, The largest cloaked figure, Ombra, was there as well.
"I understand, you made the right choice when you ran. But did you leave or give any sign of who we are?" Ombra asked.
"No, don't worry about that, I got his box." He said tossing the box to Ombra who caught it and stowed it in his cloak.
"Good job. We'll analyze it then kill it." He said turning to leave.
"Ombra." Splice said. "I think you should be the one to fight the Mist Gaurdian. He's been classed as Hyper Lethal 1. And that's without his box. I can't handle him."
"Hmph, fine. I'll do it." Ombra said leaving.
-aa—
The next day Tsuna and sat in his room, with him were Yamamoto, Ryouhei, and Lambo who was sitting on Ryouhei's lap.
"Tsuna, you sounded urgent on the phone, what's wrong?"
"YES, SAWADA!? What is the situation?" the boxer exclaimed, his loud voice making Tsuna's ears ring.
"Dame-Tsuna always panics, Lambo-sama never does because he is Lambo-sama." Lambo commented.
"W-well, I don't want you guys to be alone, always make sure to be near another guardian." Tsuna said.
"Why do we need to EXTREMELY do that?"
"Someone is going after the Guardians, well at least I think they are. Gokudera and Hibari have been attacked, but as soon as I arrived the guy left Hibari alone, maybe if we stay in groups they won't attack us." Tsuna answered.
Yamamoto wasn't sure that would deter whoever was attacking much, but it was worth a try. "What about you? I could stay with Ryouhei but who are you going to stay with?" The swordsman asked the young boss who scratched the back of his head.
"Well... Reborn will be following me around again soon enough and I'm pretty sure no one will try anything then." Tsuna said. "And I'll stay near Lambo as much as possible."
"Ah yes, Master Pao Pao is EXTREMELY strong!" Ryouhei exclaimed while Tekashi just nodded, he wasn't satisfied with the answer and smiled.
"How about we all just stay here for a bit. My dad won't mind." He suggested. Ryouhei agreed with vigorous nods of his head and Lambo began singing about having a sleep over. Tsuna just sighed, there was no way around it.
Reborn was walking down an empty street and stopped turning around. "I know you are here, come out." He said. The blue haired teen stepped out from the shadows.
"What are you doing in Nanimori?" Reborn questioned.
"We are dealing with potential threats, that's all." The boy said.
"… Your boss must be coming here." Reborn deduced, it was common for smaller, but strong, families to send their best ahead to take out threats to their boss ahead of time. "You know your dogs are attacking Vongola Guardians."
"Only the violent ones that attack without real reason." The boy said.
"So, I take it you'll go after Mukuro and Keep going after Hibari till you get him? You know, I won't stop you." Reborn said, surprising the teen.
"You won't?" came the question.
"Of course, my student still has much to learn." Reborn smirked and walked away.
