Title: Witchy Decimo
Summary: It all really started when the bird flew away again. That was when Mama made the call, her face shocked as she watched the bird that had been mauled by a cat fly away.
Notes/Warnings: Cannibalism in later chapters, casual murder, death, Addams Family Au with more murder. Look, this story is me going: How twisted can I be? It is supposed to be creepy and freaky. It is supposed to be gruesome. Please do not read if you are uncomfortable with this.
Tsuna enjoys having a friend, and Takeshi is a fun friend. They play at school with other kids- Takeshi loves baseball and he's really, really good at it. Tsuna tells him he could be a pro one day, and Takeshi laughs.
"Hahaha, if you're my manager!" After school they always go to Takesushi, and help Takeshi's daddy out there, cleaning usually.
Then, they go to Tsuna's house for supper! Takeshi's daddy is learning how to make the yummy food Mama makes, but Mama says most humans have trouble with it, so Takeshi usually ate supper with them.
It was nice, having a friend- or a Guardian as Auntie K called him- and Tsuna is happy that his friend is like him! They could play fun games like: Stab, Stab, Bite and they could happily draw pictures Mama told him never to draw in school- fun pictures of dead animals and decapitated people.
Takeshi also helps with Magic training, which is hard because Mama makes Tsuna do more then just Necromancy, which was easy and fun!
Tsuna even has a pet now- a doggy Takeshi and he found with half it's torso missing. Tsuna loves it, and Mama likes it to. They named it Spike!
Mama uses her pretty Soul stuff to illusion the dog though, so no one can see it's half dead unless they're like them or in the know! It's so cool!
Takeshi and Tsuna also go out and scope the underground in town. Mama warns them to be careful- because auntie K would get annoyed to have to go and raise them from the dead if they got killed- so they try to be, but sometimes- like when Takeshi got his arm cut off and they had to go back to Mama to get it reattached- they messed up.
But they had fun, running around and laughing. Takeshi was even looking more and more like a demon each day to! If you looked close, you saw his eyes were darker and his hair looked kinda blue, and Mama noticed he had horns growing.
Takeshi is really excited about that, even though Mama had to hide them- auntie K was trying to get Tsuna's other aunt or his uncle to come but she can't find them.
Humans are weird about looks- auntie K apparently terrifies humans even though Tsuna has no idea why! He's excited to look like her, though auntie K told him he wouldn't look exactly like her- he was a witch, not a necromancer.
Though he was starting to get looks. People whispering and muttering and he didn't understand why the police man came to the door, but Mama got upset and Mama couldn't be upset! He wanted to kill him, but Mama said no, that it was illegal and killing him would raise questions.
"I don't get why it's illegal." Takeshi pouts, as they walk around. Tsuna had just finished telling his story to the boy who completely agreed with him. "Killing is fun!"
"Mama says that humans are silly." Tsuna answers. "Doesn't your daddy say anything?"
"He says it's because it's wrong, a m-moral thing? And then he said he understands I don't get it. It's stupid." Takeshi pouts, as they stumble upon a man. "What is he doing to her?" Takeshi wonders, interrupting the man who had a woman pressed to a wall, a knife in hand.
"I dunno…" Tsuna says.
"Kids, run!" the woman says, eyes wild, as the man snarls, yanking himself away and heading towards them. He can't leave a witness, not-
Takeshi moves, his wooden bokken (Humans are weird about blades), slamming into the man's knees, causing him to fall. Tsuna moves to, slamming his foot into the man's stomach. He smiles, feeling some tension bleed out a little from earlier.
"You can go ma'am!" Tsuna chirps, pulsing a bit of magic into his voice. Mama taught him to do so, to get people away from scenes.
The woman obeys, running off, confused. She had heard about a kid who beat up people disturbing the peace… was there another? Or did he use something else…
Takeshi laughs, slamming the bokken down harder, his eyes darkening as his demonic blood rises. His teeth sharpen, as he slams his practice sword down, breaking bones.
Tsuna grins, and watches, interested in it. Takeshi is his- his friend, his Peace Guardian. All this power is his.
Takeshi suddenly stills, and whirls around, his eyes black, and teeth sharp, to the opening of the alley. Tsuna turns to, and sees a boy he only knows by reputation.
Hibari Kyoya. He stands there, holding tonfans, and staring at them. He doesn't move, and the man sobs,
"Help me, hel-" Takeshi slams his sword down onto the man's head, breaking his skull in half, his face feral. Hibari strikes, and Takeshi throws himself into the fight.
Takeshi's demonic blood sends thrills through him as he fights, finding himself being hit, nearly getting smashed down hard.
It's exhilarating, and he laughs wildly, Hibari himself grinning as he fights against the herbi- no, the carnivore. He had come this way after seeing the woman run away from there- her face cut and blouse ripped, recognizing what happened.
He didn't care for the man's death, he was just happy he found a fellow carnivore.
Takeshi falls though, and lays there panting, his face loosing it's demonic features as Tsuna jumps over, grinning.
Hibari is on guard. The sword one is a carnivore, but this one… he isn't sure. He seems like a herbivore, but Hibari is more connected to his sixth sense than others. He looks at the boy, and his mind screams, but also purrs.
"I never thought a Human could beat Takeshi! Hey, do you wanna spar with me? I can use my magic a bit to make me tougher!" Hibari takes in a bit of it, and then grins.
This will be interesting.

Akuma- no, Nana, she's Nana now- smiles at her son and his friends. Take-kun is adorable, with his bloody face and sharp teeth as he laughs at what Tsuna is saying. And now Kyo-kun, and his adorable vows of biting people to death. Nana's never heard of a Human who does that- she'll have to contact Kurayami about this- but she can tell that her baby has found his main Drifting Soul Guardian.
He's so cute, and Nana giggles watching them interacting.
"Carnivores." Hibari says, nodding as he leaves the house, hearing the mother Creature giggling even harder. He doesn't really care though, as he leaves the house, planning on returning.
The Creature is interesting. It's an interesting thing- having more then just Humans in the world, but what catches his attention is the Soul abilities Nana mentioned, and he's curious.
He stalks them, attacking them from time to time. They always fight back, laughing crazily, and happily. It's fun.
He goes with them to the Aunt's- Creature Mother bringing food for him to eat.
("Call me Mama." She tells him, and he hns.
"Carnivore Mother."
"Close enough!")
It's a strange place, the house, and his instincts rage, as he watches the many animals- all half dead- crawl around.
"Oh, she added more cats, and she has a few mice now!" laughs Tsuna, watching as a half-dead cat chews on a mouse missing half it's head, the mouse still alive.
Hibari grins as he watches the cats pounce and prowl around the yard.
"Nana, little demon, little swordsman… little Human." A voice speaks, and a woman strides from the forest, looking annoyed as she wrapped a shawl around herself, hiding herself from view, her hair crazed, a yellow feather by her left ear most prominate in the mass of trinkets she wore. "I hate human clothes." Grumbles the woman, as she walks towards them. Hibari dimly notices she looks like she came from a grave, as thin and ill as she looks. He looks at her and knows she is dangerous but…
"Hn… Herbivore." Hibari announces, and that gets her to stop. She blinks, and then sighs, deeply.
"First time I've been called that." She says as she motions for them to follow as she leads them into her house. "I have a tent for the kids." She tells them as they enter her small house, with only one bedroom, and the living room filled with potions and ingredients. Banging comes from under their feet and Auntie K bangs her own foot down hard, looking annoyed.
"Is there another hunt soon?" asks Tsuna as he happily sits at the table, eyeing a pot on the table.
"Yes, but I'm not letting you three fight." She replies, as she opens the pot and pulls out a snake who hisses. "Snake juice?" she asks, and Tsuna giggles, Takeshi nodding even as he pouts.
"Why can't we fight?" he asks her as she milks the snake.
"They're mafia criminals. They can use their Soul Flames to fight, often in ways we don't understand," Auntie K replies. "You three are to young."
"I'm a Carnivore." Hibari tells the woman who shrugs, looking bored.
"That may be, but even a Carnivore can fall to a pack of Herbivores if they can crowd them enough," she tells him. "So no. The next hunt for normal criminals is in a few months, you can come back then."
"Hai auntie." Tsuna says, pouting. "I didn't know you knew the mafia?"
"I'm a sheriff Tsuna, they send me criminals from time to time to keep their prison mostly free of the life time offenders." Auntie K reminded him. "Now, what is your name?"
"Hibari Kyouya."
"…Ah, a Hibari. That makes sense."
Hibari grins as Auntie K began to explain how one of her fellow Guardians had been a Hibari to the others.
He has a feeling he'll like it here.

When they leave, Hibari adds another classification. Creature.
Only three ever ended up on that list: Little Creature, Creature Mother, and Aunt Creature.
(The carnivore becomes Demon a few weeks later. Not a creature, but he needs a way to define his fellow Guardian.
There will be more carnivores after all.)
Hibari is the only human member of the group because I find the thought hilarious. Strongest Guardian is a human. HA!
Also yes- they assumed that Tsuna was being abused because he was getting so thin. Witches tend to resemble casters of their first magic though not as much. Tsuna will resemble a necromancer but not to the extent Auntie K is. Also, Hibari is not scared of her, he thinks she's weak. (He's corrected.)
