And so on with the story. Hope you guys enjoy. =)

In the Sawada household lately every morning began with loud noises that continued randomly throughout the day. This school day was no different. The sounds of gunshots were heard but unlike other days a loud scream followed closely behind.

"HHIIIEEE! I'm up! I'm UP! Don't kill me!" Tsuna screamed as he jumped off the bed.

'Did you have a nightmare Tsuna?' The real Tsunayoshi of this world asked from his place in the parallel world travelling one's mind. 'Are you okay?'

Tsuna blinked a few times before his memory of what happened returned to him.

'I forgot... I'm not home.' Tsuna sighed as he realized he was in no danger of being hit by his tutor. Because, he is not Tsuna's tutor in this world, but his younger brother's.

'What does that mean, Tsuna?' Tsunayoshi asked in confusion. What would being home have to do with waking up like that?

'Reborn wakes me up with bullets and hammers to my head... So I guess it's just a habit...' Tsuna rubbed his head as he internally cried at the memory. He looked back onto his bed where Lambo was still happily sleeping on and sighed. At least he hadn't woken the child up.

'So Reborn-san is the same in your world as he is in ours?' Tsunayoshi asked softly, wondering if it was a good thing or a bad thing that Reborn wasn't his Tutor.

"He's probably Reborn in every single world." Tsuna mumbled before getting off the floor and starting to get ready for school. Tsuna felt his lips curve into a smile as he heard Tsunayoshi laughing softly.

"Let's have a good day, ne?" Tsuna smiled before he left the room to go downstairs with his school bag in hand. He saw his mother cooking at the stove when he entered the kitchen. No one else was downstairs yet. And he hoped he wouldn't have to face Takiru that day. After his little stunt with Lambo he had heard Takiru rant and yell for hours. Including sounds of explosions and gunshots and all kinds of scary training things Reborn brought out.

He wasn't sure why Reborn had helped him get back into his home and his room by keeping Takiru away from both him and Lambo. It was way too easy. Tsuna was sure he would have to do something in return for the Hit-man Tutor or he'll be put through something equally dangerous and traumatizing. He didn't know which of the two was worse than the other. Both Tsunayoshi and he agreed to this.

"Oh, Tsu-kun. Good morning. Are you ready for school already?" Nana looked at her eldest and smiled warmly.

"Good morning mom." Tsuna smiled back at her. His mama and this world's mama was the same. They both had the same happy smile that made Tsuna feel warm inside. "Yes, I… woke earlier than planned." he nodded.

'I want to help mama.' Tsunayoshi said which Tsuna didn't understand. 'I want to help mama cook breakfast.' Tsuna felt lost. There was a reason to why he never helped his mom with the cooking. And that was that whatever he made ended up burnt or char-coaled. So how was he able to help her?

'I can't cook!'

'But mama has taught me.'

'HEE! How did you?! I tried back home too but...' He felt Tsunayoshi shudder at the traumatizing memory of some of his created concoctions.

'Let's give it a shot, ne? I'll be helping too. Please?' Tsuna sighed. He didn't want Tsunayoshi to feel depressed again. The feelings he had felt when the memories had first come to him were so dark and sad; devastating at times too. And Tsuna liked having Tsunayoshi smiling instead. It was like he had another brother in himself. Someone he wanted to help and protect.

"M-Mom... Can … um, I h-help?" Tsuna asked, his cheeks flushing pink.

"Oh Tsu-kun!" His mother cried in a happy glee. "It's been a while since you cooked. I'm so happy." Tsuna wondered if it was only that she had the bowl in her arms that stopped his mother from glomping him.

"O-okay, but I'm not sure how this will turn out. It… it's been a while…" Tsuna stuttered out. He felt Tsunayoshi laugh and smile inside. His mama only smiled back at him brighter than before. It was the happiest he had felt Tsunayoshi be. The brightest he has seen this mama smile as well and that little fact made Tsuna smile happily. 'I have no idea how this is going to work though.' He thought softly.

Tsuna sighed softly as he entered his classroom. Tsunayoshi had told him the class and Tsuna was surprised that it was the same class as his own. Unfortunately for him it was also the same class that Takiru was in. Tsuna wanted to skip school that day in fear of him. But then again Takiru had stayed calm during breakfast that day.

*** Flashback ***

The breakfast table was set and ready for everyone to come down. Tsuna stared at it with awe and surprise. He had never been able to make a single dish in his life and yet here he made omelets for everyone to eat. Although, he didn't, personally, know if it was any good and hoped, for everyone's sake, that it was.

"Gyahaha! Lambo-sama is hungry!" The little Mafiosi came running into the room. The five year old opened up a lot more since the day before. He seemed so much like the Lambo he knew in his own world. Tsuna smiled at the child as he ran circles around him before sitting down at the table. "Lambo-sama wants to eat lots and lots today."

"He's too damn loud." The grumbling voice had Tsuna tensing and Lambo freezing on the spot. Takiru was still in an awful mood and that didn't bode well for anyone.

"Deal with it baka-Takiru." Reborn's voice came from the same direction.

"Good morning Taki-kun, Reborn-kun. Come have breakfast." Nana called to her youngest.

"'Morning." Takiru mumbled as he sat down at the table. He looked at the food on it once before looking at Tsuna from the corners of his eyes. Tsuna froze again for a moment.

'Why is he looking at me like that?' Tsuna thought frantically, panic beginning to fill him.

'It's okay. Takiru just knows I cooked.' Tsunayoshi said softly.

'Heh? HOW?!' Tsuna watched Takiru as he started to eat breakfast without another word. 'Tsuna take your place next to Takiru.' Tsunayoshi said, his voice becoming quiet.

'Hiee! Why?' Tsuna looked at the place that was apparently set for him.

'Takiru-san's order.' Tsuna almost whimpered.

Tsuna sighed quietly instead. He knew he should do this. Takiru should be kept calm while around Lambo. So he moved to sit as his body felt uneasy standing, while Takiru kept eating. He rubbed Lambo's fluffy head before sitting down, bringing him out of his fearful state. He whispered to Lambo to eat before starting to enjoy his own breakfast.

However, Tsuna felt sort-of nervousness in his body as he ate. Like Tsunayoshi was really worried about something. But Tsuna didn't know what. Wasn't Tsunayoshi the one who said to sit next to Takiru? Or was that not it? Tsuna didn't know how to make this gnawing feeling go away and he felt worried for Tsunayoshi.

"It's tolerable." The words that left Takiru were monotonous and uncaring. However, the effect it had on his body was undeniable. Every single tense muscle in his body relaxed and he settled into a smile. Tsuna felt Tsunayoshi smile and warmth filled him. Was this a way you react to the one who bullied you? Is this a way to feel, when not too long ago he was ready to beat you?

'He likes it.' Tsuna heard the soft sigh.

'Likes it?'

'He likes my cooking.' Came the soft reply and Tsuna decided to just seep in the warmth of the moment for now. He hadn't felt Tsunayoshi get this happy. He will think on this later.

Tsuna took his seat quietly. No one greeted him or bothered to even look at him; not even Kyoko-chan. He looked at the light brown haired girl. She was smiling and laughing at something Kurokawa had said. Tsuna sighed. 'At least back at home Kyoko-chan spoke to me.' Tsuna internally sighed.

'HIIEE! Sasagawa-san spoke to you?' Tsunayoshi screamed in his head. 'But how did that happen?! Sasagawa-san is the most popular girl in school!'

'Reborn happened.' Tsuna thought back. It sounded like an ordeal he didn't want to talk about but, Tsunayoshi wouldn't believe it. What could have happened to have made Sasagawa Kyoko be friends with the most Dame person in school?

Before Tsunayoshi could ask anymore the class door opened again and Takiru came in, Yamamoto and Gokudera right behind him.

If Tsuna's entry to class didn't make any significance to the students busy with them, Takiru's entrance had them all silenced and looking at him. Tsuna saw some of the girls step back in fear but most of them went weak at the sight of the three good-looking teenagers together. The boys of the class seemed more in awe to be jealous of the reaction the three gained from the girls. Tsuna couldn't help but feel somewhat envious. Takiru came in with his family after all, but then again they weren't. Not in this world.

"Takiru-sama." Tsuna heard a girl sigh to his right while another called for Yamamoto and some called for Gokudera and he sweat dropped.

'They have no idea how scary he is.' Tsuna thought. But then, seeing the reactions around him Tsuna couldn't help but smile. Takiru was popular in school. How nice. Tsuna could feel the pride Tsunayoshi felt for his brother pride. 'Wait. Pride?! Why would you take pride in his popularity? He bullies you all the time! He scares you to death more than half the time. Why are you HAPPY?!' Tsuna asked his other self in bewilderment.

He felt someone stop at his table, but was slow to react as he was so confused by this dimension's Tsuna. "Dame-Tsuna. Get up and greet me." Tsuna flinched before he instinctively followed the monotonous order. The obedience was too ingrained in to his body to go against them. He wasn't strong enough to go fight against even himself. Tsuna cringed. 'If Reborn saw me like this…' He shuddered.

"Good morning, Takiru-san." Tsuna greeted, slightly bowing to him. "Good morning, Gokudera-san, Yamamoto-san." Tsuna said not looking them in the eye. He couldn't do it. Seeing his friends being anything but whom they were in his world was very hard on him.

"Yo, Tsuna." Yamamoto said with a wide smile. Tsuna looked up for a second before lowering his eyes again. Was it just him or did that smile not reach his eyes? Tsuna wondered.

"OI! Baseball idiot! How dare you greet back before Jyuudaime!" Gokudera yelled, completely forgetting about Tsuna. Tsuna felt another stab at not being replied to by Gokudera but hid it from outside view. From his memories he knew it never did end well to let Takiru see how he feels.

Satisfied with the reaction Takiru sat down at the table behind Tsuna, not bothering to reply. Tsuna heard murmurings from the other classmates. They wondered how much of an idiot and a loser one had to be called dame, even by their own brother. Even after so long everyone else wondered and laughed at Tsuna for this.

Tsuna took a deep breath before taking his seat. That was when he realized something that he had simply overlooked.

'TAKIRU SITS BEHIND ME?!' His eyes were wide with fear.

'Takiru has always sat behind us, since kindergarten.'

'NO WAY!' Tsuna felt terrible. He couldn't seem to get away from his younger scary twin, not from home and not even at school. 'No wonder he was so calm at home!' Tsuna yelled in his head. 'He's going to kill me at school!' The thought made Tsuna shiver. When Tsuna had glanced back at him, the blank look on Takiru's face didn't help matters either. 'I'm gonna DIE!' Tsuna cried mentally as class finally started.

Tsuna sighed softly as he walked up the stairs to the school roof. It was already lunch time and Tsuna had been able to avoid being caught for the time being. Well, as much as a person could, when the one they are hiding from was sitting right behind them. Tsuna sighed again. It was traumatizing to have to sit in front of Takiru for so long. Tsuna had felt the burn of his glare all through class. But then, luckily, Tsuna had enough dealings with trauma, thanks to his Home Tutor Hit man Reborn.

Tsuna felt dubious. He hadn't seen Reborn since breakfast and as much as he knew... or, well experienced Reborn, him disappearing for a few hours can equal to a lot of trouble.

"A secret hideout?" a voice that undoubtedly sounded like Yamamoto's made Tsuna panic and try to hide by running upstairs. "Heh. Sounds cool."

'Huh? What did he say?' Tsuna thought curiously, pausing mid step.

"Shut up Baseball idiot! This isn't a kid's game!" Tsuna sweat dropped when Gokudera yelled. "However there should be a secret hideout of the family's."

'Gokudera...' Tsuna moaned in his head. This didn't sound good at all. It sounded more like something Reborn planned. 'I hope they survive.' As curiosity got the better of him, Tsuna peeked around the corner to take a look.

"You want us to do something, Reborn." Takiru said coldly, while walking in front of the others. "Why don't you just be upfront about it?"

"The Mafia isn't upfront about too many things Baka-Takiru. Get used to it." Reborn replied and it seemed only Takiru and Tsuna heard him. For the other two were, in a way, arguing.

"Hiee! I knew it this was Reborn's idea!" Tsuna said worriedly after they passed the stairs.

'So, what are we going to do?' He heard the worry in Tsunayoshi's voice too.

'Maybe they can handle it..?' Tsuna faltered for a moment.

'Are you sure?'

'No. You've never been included in Reborn's training for Takiru. You've never seen how he takes them. So, I'm not sure.'

'Then, we have to follow! They might get into trouble.'

'You know Takiru is always going to be in trouble now, right? This is Reborn we are talking about.' Tsuna deadpanned, still not understanding this Tsunayoshi. 'But, yeah... Let's go.' The worry for his friends and the feeling of their hyper-intuition sending bad feelings down their spine sent Tsuna and mental Tsunayoshi following after the scary younger teen and his famiglia.

Tsuna was creeping around corners. Making sure his twin didn't notice him. It was harder than he thought though. He was sure Takiru saw him at one point, though he didn't show it. But that didn't matter. Tsuna was scared and the foreboding feeling increased tenfold when they stopped at a particular room. After a moment of discussion between them, they went inside. That's when Tsuna remembered something. A memory of his own, of the first time he met HIM face to face. His friends were in really big trouble. Because the room they went to claim as their secret hideout was already occupied by the Disciplinary Committee and its leader, Hibari Kyoya.
