Okay, hello everyone! Thousand thanks to all those who have read this story, and sorry it took so long to update, but I have school, other fics and life in general.

But I really wouldn't have thought that this would get even this many readers so fast! Honestly, this was just idea that had been haunting my head for a great while and well..

Also, not to confuse you guys, I had to change some timelines to make sense out of this. And I'm going with the anime... sorry guys... but reading that manga while writing this... I would be in my death bed before I would finish this.

Anyway, I don't own KHR, even thought I wanted to... But enjoy!


Gentle wind soars through the air, and makes few leafs fall down from a big apple tree. Under the tree's branches, between it's roots, is a lone grave stone. Ju Hibari*'s name is carved on to it with careful lines and there are pink Carnations* in front of the stone.

Ju had died half year ago, she lasted a month before drifting off in coma. Fon hadn't had another breakdown thought. Shun had cried that day for both of them. (As he said, his son was sensitive person, and he could tell that someone importand had left, and they would never return.)

Fon and Shuu had had a small funeral in Fon's home along with Himeko. Ju had always said that she wanted to be buried under her favourite apple tree.

Fon smiled slightly at fond memory. Ju had fell in love with the apple tree on the very first sight. Fon had found her sitting on it's branches more than one time, and slowly, he learned to look from there first if Ju was down and wanted to be left alone. On fall, tree would have many sweet apples, and it was almost impossible to get Ju away from it. He also had a heart attack when he had found his pregnant wife sitting on one of it's branches, her feet tangling at the height of his head.

Fon looked over to his ten months old son, who was happily crawling after Lichi. The monkey was just walking around, trying to lose the boy from her tail.

Shun and Fon were going to move at Hibaris' at Japan. Of course, mainly because after Ju's dead, Himeko had actually DEMANDED them to move in with them. Fon had been shocked when he realized how demanding his brother's little wife could be. She had particularly moved half of Fon's belongings to Japan before end of week.

It was scary what she could do in so little of time. Thank heavens, Shuu had took care of little Kyoya then, because Fon's nephew would had been crushed by all those boxes...

Speaking of him, Kyoya and Shun got along just great. Kyoya was just like his father, quiet and serious, even thought boy was barely one! Shun on the other hand was playful and energetic, well, most of time. They remained Fon of himself and Shuu when they were still kids.

Fon smiled softly as he went to get his partner and son.

"Come on Lichi, we have to leave soon. Come here Shun." he said as he scooped his son up from the ground. Shun let out wild giggles and laughed his little baby laugh as Fon swirled him around a little.

They turned to look at the small grave once more, before Fon started to walk towards mountain road, Shun on his arms and Lichi sitting on his shoulder.

'Watch over us, Ju.'


When they landed, Shuu was waiting for them at the airport. It was VERY easy to find him, the crowd parted around him like a red sea. Fon sweat dropped when he saw Shuu leaning against one of pillars and people around them were forming an oval shape around them.

Shuu was the head officer of Namimori's police forces, and he was known to be... Vicious. People feared him and his hair thin temper. But despite his violent actions and strict nature, he was the one that made Namimori the most peaceful town in Japan.

Fon had made a background checks on the citizen long time ago, and he had found out that there was a retired hitman living in the town, and then there was Vongola's young lion's family. Both brothers were aware of them, and some other minor mafiasos. Shuu wasn't forced to make an Omerta, unlike Fon, so he was free to arrest them if he felt like it. But in Shuu's eyes, as long as they didn't disturb the peace of Namimori, he didn't care who lived there.

"Good to see you Shuu. You are well, I take it?" Fon greeted with his usual smile, not minding the odd/horrified/pitying glances that the people sent his way as he came nearer to his brother. Shun was asleep in his basket and Lichi was sitting on top of Fon's head, looking around them curiously. Shuusuke just nodded his head. He didn't need to say anything. Fon already knew what he wanted to say.

'Welcome home, brother.' Fon accepted his brothers welcoming with a laugh. Shuusuke's lips twitched upwards into a smirk, and they started to make their way towards his car.

(Shuusuke was predator, a carnivore, who was always on guard. And it was his job to look after herbivores who broke law. He didn't want to be pinned down by anything, he didn't want to feel helpless ever again.

Shuusuke had been utterly useless when those herbivores had taken them. He could only watch as Fon was turned into a criminal right in front of him. Not that Shuusuke ever hated him for it, his brother didn't have a choice. While Fon had been turned into Mafioso, Shuusuke had been only one left to protect their mother. Those dirty bastards would have done many disgraceful things to her, would it not had been for him.

Shuusuke remembered clearly how he used to comfort his mother at night, when she cried herself into sleep. She had looked so small and fragile in his arms, Shuusuke had seriously thought her to be glass few times. But he stood strong, for his mother and brother leaned onto him for support.

And the night they escaped, that horrifying sight was forever burned into his mind.

By the time he had got herbivore polices to them, it was already too late. First thing he had registered was all that red. When he saw Fon soaked in blood, he had felt panic. He did feel little relived that it didn't seem like Fon's. Second thing he realized, was how their mother was laying on the ground, her head on top of Fon's laps. He caught up soon enough, but he didn't worry about their mother. No. He knew it was already too late for her, but Fon, Fon was fine, he was alive. Shuusuke still had someone to protect.

Fon had looked like wounded animal, expect, theese wounds wouldn't heal so easily. Shuusuke's heart broke when he saw Fon's empty eyes. He had slipped out of his jacked and put it on top of Fon's head, to shield him away from outside world, and Shuusuke had wrapped his arms around his brother. Fon was ten minutes older, but neither ever really cared about that. At times like that, it came to both of the brothers naturally to feel protectiveness over one another.

He hadn't let anyone even close to Fon for weeks. He had felt treated the second that someone had even done much as mentioned to part them. It took long time for them to heal. But Fon had never really got over it. (Neither of them did.) Shuusuke knew that after Fon went to China, he returned into Mafia. Shuusuke didn't judge him for that, those years had left their marks on him too.

Shuusuke had found some satisfying for his bloodlust when he had joined forces with police. People soon understood not to get in his way, all expect one woman. His second in comand would make her thoughts very clear to him, and she wasn't afraid of his warth. She particularly enjoyed teasing him.

Himeko was kind and gentle woman, but she was also stubborn and competing nature. She was originally from Hokkaido, but she had moved into Namimori to see her long time friend, Nana Sawada. Shuusuke and Himeko had started as collegas at first, but slowly they had fell madly in love. Shuu felt completed when he was with her, she remained him little of his mother, but she was still completely different. He wanted to claim her as His and only his. But he waited, he didn't want to scare that gentle person away.

And his waiting was right choice, after thinking hard about her own feelings, Himeko confessed. They had started dating and after year went married. Shuusuke absolutely adored his own son, he couldn't have been on the day he held him for the first time.

He was also very clad that Fon had also found love of his life, and Shuusuke liked Ju. While his brother was a calm eye of storm, Ju was cheerful, teasing and light summer rain. Himeko on the other hand was his sun, who shined gently, but if she would start to feel little dim, Shuu would be there to hide her behind him to rest. For he was her cloud.

These people Shuusuke claimed as his. They were his home.

Ju's dead had hit Shuu and Himeko hard, she had been like a sister to them. If Himeko hadn't already demanded Fon and Shun to move in with them, Shuu would have dragged his brother and nephew to Japan himself.

There was no way he was letting them leave too. He forbid it.)


Car ride to Hibari mansion was quiet one, but it wasn't awkward. It was quite opposite actually.

Hibari mansion was old traditional Japanise styled mansion, and Fon felt very impressed when he saw it. It wasn't gigantic, but it still counted as a mansion, and only had some staff. (Since Hibaris didn't like crowds.) It had big traditional garden around it, and the inner garden had a small pond and a big Sakura tree.

Both males smiled softly as they saw Himeko and little Kyoya in her arms at front door, coming to greed them. Fon gave Shun's basket to Shuu as he gave Himeko a quick hug and gently patted his nephew's head.

Kyoya pouted when Fon patted his head, earning soft laugh from Fon. Fon took his son back and they went inside, Fon already knew where his room was.

"Welcome home Fon, and welcome to your new home too, Shun."


Time passed by slowly, but happily. Luce had told Fon to stop going to missions for sometime ago, and he just enjoyed his time with his son.

Not that he was slacking of in his training thought, if anything, he was doing harder work outs than normally.

With Shuu as sparring partner, and Himeko looking after boys, he found himself relaxing more than he had in months. Himeko would mainly take care of boys, but Fon and Shuusuke did their part. And there were times Fon just wanted to spent time with his little angel.

And thank the heavens for Himeko, as much as Fon hated to admit it, he was completely new at being a father. He had almost had panic attack when Shun had started crying in the middle of night, and Fon had been completely ready to kill someone when he thought that someone had attacked his son. Thankfully, it turned out that Shun had just started growing teeth.

There was many accidents like that over time, but Fon got hand of it little by little. But it wasn't like Shun was making things easy for him, oh hell no! While Shun was sunny and happy baby for the most part, the little kid had a temper! And he was stubborn if he wanted to be!

It also turned out that Shun had a talent of sneaking around. Not even Fon could find him immeatedly when he hided somewhere. And Fon seriously thought of locking Shun up somewhere safe, when his son learned how to walk. That was just catastrophe waiting to happen!

One time, Himeko and Kyoya were shopping, Shuusuke was at work and Fon was peacefully drinking his favourite tea in the garden. Lichi was curently playing with Shun inside, so Fon could relax completely. That was, before he heard people shouting frantically and running around.

'What's the panic for?' Fon thought as he stood up to listen some maids talking, both sounding very frantic.

"Are you sure that young master Shun wasn't in his room? He could be playing hide and seek again!" Fon's eyes widened when he heard that. 'My son is missing?!'

"I'm sure! I checked every corner, THREE times, but I couldn't find him!" Fon left then and started looking for his son, silently cursing Ju for her prankster genes that she had undoubtedly shared with their son.

'Shun can't be kidnapped, I would have known if someone would have entered or left the mansion. He has to somewhere on the campus, since I can feel Lichi's present.' Then a thought hit him.

'Of course! I just have to look for Lichi!'

And he did find the monkey and his son. But they were on top of the roof.

'HOW IN THE NAME OF KAMI DID THEY END UP THERE?!' Fon had almost got a heart attack while Shun just laughed happily as he toddled after Lichi. (If his wife hadn't been the end of him, then Shun would be!)

Shun's favourite games seemed to be hide and seek and F.L.A.M aka, 'Follow Lichi around the mansion.' As much as Fon worried and scolded his son, he couldn't print himself to refuse his son from playing them. Besides, he could see flashes of Ju in Shun. Ju had loved high places and pranking people.

...Then there were times like this:

Fon went to put Shun asleep, when he saw his son curled up on the floor, hugging his rat plush toy. Shun's black hair was now longer and it was like a soft nest on top of boy's head. Boy's greyish blue eyes were closed in a peaceful slumber.

Fon chuckled and went to pick up his son. After he gathered Shun into his arms, he walked slowly to boy's cradle, not wanting to wake him up. With unreal grace, he lied the baby down to the soft mattress and tugged him in. Fon was just about to leave, when he heard small noise leave Shun's mouth.

'Ah, did I woke him up?' He thought as he went to his son. "Shhh, Sleep Shun, Tomorrow is a new day." Shun calmed down and yawned when Fon petted his hair.

"Good night èrzi*." Fon said fondly. He froze when he hear Shun mumble in his sleep.

"Bá*..." Fon was still as a statue, he wanted to scoop his son up and swirl him around but he didn't want to disturb Shun's precious sleep.

"Wha... What did you say...?.." he couldn't believe what he heard and he wanted to confirm it. He didn't realize that he had stopped patting Shun, and Shun opened his tired eyes, wanting to know what bothered his father.

"Bá?" Fon unfroze when he heard it loud and clear. he scooped Shun up and swirled her around in the air before hugging him gently close to himself.

"Yes Shun, I am bá. Or papa, or daddy, otousa, whatever you want to call me." Fon babbled nonsense as Shun giggled. Daddy seemed to be happy when he said that word, so he wanted to try other words as well.

"D-daddy!" Honestly, martial artist had never been as over the moon.

"You heard that Ju? Our son called me dad!" Fon whispered enchanted, as he just sat there with sleeping Shun in his arms. "We'll be just fine Shun, I know it."


Kyoya and Shun had been together from the very start, and regales to age different, (one year), they got along just fine.

But they sure were an odd sight.

There was that one time, at summer. Himeko had let boys play out in the garden while she was knitting at terrace. Kyoya had black shorts and yellow shirt. Kyoya was holding two sticks, (which looked suspiciously like tonfas) and was cutting longer straws of grass with them. In Himeko's view it looked cute.

Kyoya was so focused on 'biting herbivores to death', (Boy spent way too much time with his father, Himeko swore that he did), that he didn't realize that his cousin had sneaked behind him. Black haired little boy had purple shirt and blue jean jumpsuit shorts.

"Boo!" Shun shouted happily as he jumped in front of his cousin. Kyoya was startled and he fell on to his butt.

"Ah! Kyo-nii, you fine?" Shun asked as he knelt down. Kyoya just huffed and nodded, he was just surprised and it wasn't fun when Shun cried. Shun smiled when he saw that his cousin was fine and offered Kyoya a hand to stand up.

"Ne, Kyoya, want do somethi' fun?" Shun said with a mischievous smile on his face. Three year old Kyoya eyed his cousin for a while, before nodding. Kyoya would never admit it, but Shun's pranks were always fun to watch. Especially to him, since younger boy never pranked him.

Shun grinned and dragged Kyoya with him inside.

Now, I will NOT say what that prank was, but lets just say, that there was a frozen chicken, tomatoes, a hungry dog and not-so-innocent maid involved. Which lead to that, that boys were now sleeping on top of the roof, enjoying the morning sun, completely unaware that their quiet disappearance had caused a QUITE uproar inside the mansion.

Boys spent whole day at roof, that was, until Fon and Shuusuke came to get them down. Shun got scolded for prank he did, (More like traumatizing the maid. But to Shun's defence, she deserved it), Fon wasn't happy with him, but couldn't help but feel amazed by youth's creative mind. Kyoya was scolded for letting it happen by Himeko, while Shuusuke smirked at two and nodded in approval. He never liked that maid, and had wondered if he should fire her.

After that thought, you could find two of them laying on the roof almost all the time. When Himeko asked about it from Kyoya, should Fon have been any less of man, he would have been rolling on the ground laughing or crying at the heavens.

"Hn, There isn't herbivores up there." was Kyoya's answer. Shun had just smiled and said that it was peaceful up there.

"Plus, I can see everywhere from up there! I can ob-observe everyone at mansion from the same spot!" was what he added with mischievous smile.

At times like that, Fon could clearly see those Ju-genes in him. Not to say that Fon hadn't been a little mischievous when he was younger thought.

Boys also had seemed to take interest in Fon's and Shuusuke's training, which worried Himeko greatly. Himeko made both males promise that they would NOT teach boys ANY form of fighting until they were at least six. (They were causing enough trouble as they were, they didn't need criminal records at the age two and tree.)

All in all, Fon loved every second of his time in Hibari mansion.


*= Fon and Shuusuke have same surname, 'cause their brothers, and Fon didn't have heart to change his name.

*=pink Carnation can mean many thinks in flower language, but this time, its gratitude.

*= Now, correct me if i'm wrong, but èrzi should mean son.

*=I think you all guessed what this was supposed to mean, but I can be wrong. My language understanding isn't always the best, as you could say...

See ya!
