Chapter 4

I Give Up!

"Heh. You're late."

Tsuna was completely shocked that her brain malfunctioned. Her heart stopped almost for a second or two. She was unprepared and she didn't know how to react at all. Well, Who would? Seeing That man.
...

...

...

"Boo!"

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Tsuna couldn't help but scream 'til her voice gave out. It was the only acceptable and possible reaction she could make. The thing that she feared the most has become reality.

"R-Reborn!" Tsuna said with an agonizing expression. She was now on the other side of the hallway awkwardly grasping the wall behind her.

The man only smirked at her reaction.

"Dame-Tsuna! You're late on the first day!" out of nowhere, Reborn was already holding a gun and is aiming it at Tsuna, who was ready to faint anytime now.

Hiiieee! Oh Kami-sama!

Tsuna was waiting for some kind of miracle to happen, a miracle that would save her from the hands of her tutor...

a miracle that never happened….

and may never will.

"I told you that you shouldn't be late right? Still no good I see. You will be punished."

"B-But reborn! I had a momentary pause because of the shock! Nobody told me about what was happening and-"

Tsuna tried to reason her way out.

But the man opposite her didn't seem to care at all, then...

*BANG!*

Ah... My Normal school life... still... so far... the bullet was only inches away from her cheek.

*RATTLE*

"Jyuudaime! You're here!" The ever loyal right-hand man came out shouting from the other door.

"I'm sorry I couldn't wait for you! I'm sorry I'm sorry I do not deserve to be your right-hand man!..." The white-haired delinquent said. Tsuna never saw anyone do that many dogeza* before.

"ma~ ma~ It's the first day. Just let it slide sensei." An athletic looking dude smiled towards the hostile tutor.

"Sawada! You're late to the EXTREMEEEEEE!" And an overly energetic senpai shouted with his fist up in the sky, full of unneeded convictions.

"U-uhm boss... I, I saved you a... a s-seat." A timid-looking girl said shyly.

...

...

"You guys..." Tsuna smiled. It's as if her troubles have all been washed away.

"Alright that's enough. Get back inside. Dame-Tsuna! You're interrupting the class!"

*BANG*


Aaaaaaand that was what everyone, including the heroine, predicted to have happened…

but it didn't... bummer huh...?

But what really happened was…

"Heh. You're late. Everyone from this class has already left."

An old man wearing blue rollovers and carrying cleaning utensils said.

You must be kidding! Is this a joke? After I have prepared to unprepare myself? What's going on? Is it already lunch time? Tsuna thought, as she glanced at her watch which tells her that it was still too early for lunch..

The room was completely isolated. No sound can be heard from inside.

Well, I guess he's telling the truth. If they are really here, then the place would've been extremely rowdy.

Sigh.

"Uhm. Mister? Do you know where the people here went?" Tsuna asked, keeping her composure.

"Hmm… well… I was informed that this room needed EXTREME cleaning, and should be done immediately while the students transfer… to the… gym?" The old man responded almost questioningly, not so sure about his answer.

"I see. Thank you very much sir! I'll be heading off now."Tsuna said with a bow. She then faced the other way and began to walk towards the gym.

"Wait a moment young lady."

"Hmm?... What is it mister?" Tsuna stopped and turned around to face him.

"You see, you look like a really nice and sweet girl. I just had to... warn you… Earlier, I passed by some students from your class… and… they looked like they were looking for trouble. Like a class full of delinquents. You better be careful." He warned with an extremely serious expression.

"I-Is that so? Hehe..." Tsuna sweatdropped.

Yeah. And get this. I heard from the faculty earlier that the new teacher…" the old man stopped and turned his head from left to right, being cautious.

As the old man moved closer to her ear, the cold wind began to blow.

"...is a Spartan…" Tsuna's HP suddenly turned to zero, and her body crumbled to ashes, being gradually blown by the wind as the last word filled her every being.


*sob* sob*

I know Oji-san I know.

Tsuna's soul cried out. She can't help but be reminded of the "painful" experiences she had with her tutor.

"Heh. I see. It's only the first day and a rumor like that had already started." Tsuna said to herself as she made her way to the gym.

What did reborn do?

"And what's with the sudden change of location? Can't they stay put in one place?...
Hmm... well, now that I think about it, it's impossible for those guys to actually be in a room together without causing any ruckus. The place would definitely be blown to pieces in just a matter of seconds."
Tsuna knows them too well. It was a relief that she was their comrade and not their enemy, although a some still sees her as a rival, or a threat... and a prey... well it was better than being treated as a toy or punching bag, one person is enough for that.

Sigh.

"Honestly, I don't know anymore. What is Reborn planning? The Ninth must be in on it too!"

Tsuna was contemplating when suddenly, a large explosion was heard.

"Eh? Just now, did it... came from the gym...?"

...Oh yeah. A gym is still an enclosed space with entrance and exits. It's only bigger than a classroom. It's still a fragile existence for those guys.

Tsuna was about to run when the explosion was immediately followed by the sound of gun shots.

"What? Can't they tone it down a bit? We are still in the middle of morning classes!"

Tsuna hurried to the gym. But as she reached the gym, the noises only became louder, and the place was full of holes in varying sizes. It is almost torn into pieces. Shouts and curses can also be heard.

Students and teachers became anxious and curious. Several classes were interrupted and some students panicked while teachers became alert.

"DIE TRASH!"

*BANG*BANG"

"SHUT UP! WHY ARE YOU HERE?"

*BOOOOOOOM*

...STOP...

"Kufufufufu! That's all?"

"I'll bite you to death!"

*CLANG* BANG *

...STOP IT!...

"Kukukukuku! This is fun!"

*WHOOSH* BOOM*

"Ushishishi! I'm the only prince here!"

"Oi! CALM DOWN!"

...STOP IT!...

"WAAAAH!"

*CRASH*

"VOIIII! YOU COWARD!"

"You're weak byon!"

...STOP...

"Should we call the police?"

"Sensei! something's going on at the gym!"

"What is it? what is it?"

"Let's go see!"

STOP IT...

"EXTREMEEEEEEEEEEE!"

*BOOM*

...

...

...

*SNAP*

the sound of Tsuna's patience...

*WHOOSH *BANG*

"I SAID STOP IT YOU IDIOTS!"

The doors of the gym were abruptly and forcibly opened and appeared was an extremely annoyed Tsuna.

Her eyes glowing with anger, glaring and piercing to every person in the room, her fists clenched, teeth gritting, but her hair floating in the air gracefully. She looked like a samurai who was covered with blood from a battle and was ready to kill anytime. Yet in a way, as few people inside the room thought in the moment, an extremely annoyed Tsuna is really sexy and appealing. It has been awhile since that happened.

"J-Jyuudaime!"

"Tsuna"

Everyone in the room seemed to have stopped...

*CLANG* CLANG* BANG*

Except for a certain pineapple-head, skylark, and Varia boss.

Tsk. Annoying.

As everyone watched the three battle it out, Tsuna suddenly flew, she was wearing her gloves in just a blink of an eye. And in a matter of seconds she was already joining the battle.


A trident was about to come in contact with a tonfa, when it was suddenly stopped by a powerful grip.

"Deja vu?" Tsuna smiled at the two. Then, before the two could even make a move she pushed herself upward using the two weapons she's holding as support. And from her hands, powerful bright orange flames came out.

"Kufufufu! I'll enjoy myself later then."

"Herbivore! You're late! I'm gonna bite you to death."

When out of the blue, from behind, a powerful, laser-like gunshot was released. Aimed at her. The two weapons as support, she flipped herself into the air, higher than the gunshot and evading it. She looked like a fish jumping from the surface. She was floating in the air like she was lying in bed.

Then, in midair, the man who fired was suddenly under her.

He smiled evilly.

"TRASH!"

...

...

But, Tsuna grinned more "evilly"

"Didn't I tell you to stop? Xanxus?"

Tsuna raised her hands in front of her making her body change into an upright position. She looked like she was standing on top of him.

"Heh. Annoying bastard!"

Tsuna increased the volume of her flames and rapidly, her feet made contact to Xanxus' stomach and

*KABOOM*

Xanxus' body got smashed on the floor.


It only took her 30 seconds.

"Amazing Jyuudaime! You were great! Awesome I'm so lucky to be your right-hand-man.. blah blah.." Hayato was so amazed that he looked like a child who just saw the Power Rangers*.

"Haha! You seem to be at it today Tsuna! ma~ ma~ that's good." Yamamoto smiled at the brunette.

"VOOOIIIIII! What do you think you're doiing to boss!" the long-haired shark scowled.

"Kufufufufu things are going to be interesting... from now on, Vongola..."

"Do you really think that Mukuro?" the glasses man, Chikusa asked looking tired and bored. Well, he always looks like that.

"T-Tsuna-chan! Good morning..." The timid Shimon boss greeted.

"Kukuku... This is really fun..."

"You're late to the EXTREMEEEE Sawada!"

"Ushishi useless!"

"Don't say that senpai... you're just the same..."Fran said as he tried to evade the sharp knives aimed at his head.

"That hurt Senpaaaai"

"Uh-uhm... boss? Are you alright?"

"HOW DARE YOU TRASH!" and his scars are now visible...

"I'll bite you to death! Herbivore!" and his fangs are more sharp than before.

Just like that the silence that existed a few seconds ago... was gone in a blink of an eye.

As another riot was about to start again...

*BANG* BANG*

"Alright. Now that everyone's here, we can start."


"R-Reborn-san!"

The fedora-wearing hitman caught everyone's attention.

"Hmmm... you took your time... Byakuran-sama has been waiting for quite a while now."

"Kikyo's right Reborn... you did took your time. Haha" The head of the Cavallone family added.

"Well, whose fault do you think it is? Isn't it that girl's fault?"

"Oi! Watch your words you dragon bastard!" Hayato angrily rebutted. Zakuro glared back at him.

"My My.. I don't think now's the right time for that Hayato-kuuun.. Zakuro-kuuun" the peacock-man tried to calm the tension between the two.

Most of the people in the room has calmed down by now.
Xanxus was already sitting on his... uhm.. throne (a.k.a the principal's chair, which made a certain skylark aggressive...) The skylark now is quietly listening to his new sensei just like most of the people there, curious and interested on what the man in front of them was planning.

...

...

...

"So, do you have anything to say?" reborn glanced at Tsuna who has been quiet and had her back face everyone for a while now.

"Sawada-sama! Are you..." Basil looked concern.

"B-boss..."

"Hmm... the Young Vongola seems to be having a moment..." Lambo spoke, sounding like he's used to seeing her like that... And for some unknown reason, he's in adult form... but the 10-year Bazooka was kept away in Italy.

"Tsuna-chan..."

"Tsuna?"

It was silent for a while, until Tsuna turned around to face them with her head down. She seem to have been calming herself since earlier.

Everyone had worry, confusion and question painted on their faces.

...

...

"Uh-uhm... I..." She began.

"I... uhm"

"Hmm? I'm getting impatient you know. You don't want demerits on your first day right?" Reborn smirked.

Tsuna twitched.

"TSK. LEAVE ME ALONEEEEE!" Tsuna cried as orange flames came out from gloves. She flew up and was about to pass through one of the holes on the ceiling. Shocking everyone with her reaction... Well, except for one, one who just smirked while drinking a cup of espresso...

"I want to go HOME! I have decided to be a hikikimori* after all!"

"VOIII! COWARD!" Tsuna flew up high with amazing speed determined to get away from that place.

Impossible! It's impossible for them, to calmly greet each other "Ohayo~" every morning like normal people or even stay quietly in the room during lessons or play normally outside during break or even share notes and gossip while giggling cutely.. .but most importantly... It's impossible for them to even carry books and wear the overly-formal uniform while blend in the normal society of high school students!
They'll just instantly raise their weapons at each other just like earlier!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING REBORN?

SOME OF THEM ARE EVEN TOO OLD FOR HIGH SCHOOL!

"Ah... what a beautiful sky... is that heaven...? Well down there is hell, so it might be.. hihi..." Tsuna lost it.

"AH! Tsuna! Dino-nii is here! it's alright!" Dino shouted trying to make her feel better, with arms stretched, sounding like a brother who loves her sister too much.

"Kufufufu... This room is full of... prey. The ones easy to devour!"
Mukuro humored himself.

"You're sounded like the skylark, Master. Guess you were really a fan?" *THWACK* *THWACK*

As usual, monotone Fran, could't keep his opinions to himself. "Ouch Master... please don't be violent."

Inches from making it outside, Tsuna's legs were caught by... something...?

"And where do you think you're going? Kora!"

"Skipping classes already?"

...

...

"EEEEH? Colonello? Lal Mirch? WHYYY?" Tsuna grunted as he was pulled down to the ground.

"Oi! You idiot! I'm here too!"

"Now, now Skull, I don't think anyone cares."

"Fon... sob... How dare you! You're so mean."

"Honestly! What am I doing here? I should be in my lab right now. That reborn."

...

...

...

"Have anything to say... to your... Sensei?" Reborn smiled. He was totally enjoying it.

She was now 100 percent sure that there is no way in hell that she can escape this torture. It's all happening and it's all that guy's fault!

Sigh...

Sayonara my normal school life...
I, Tsuna Sawada...

"I GIVE UP"

End Of Chapter


Notes:

*dogeza - a deep apology done by kneeling directly on the ground and bowing to prostrate oneself as touching one's head to the floor. (from wikipedia :3)

*Power Rangers - I just had to use them here. They were my heroes when I was a kid.

*hikikimori- It means a person who always stays at home and does not study or has no work even though the person is in good health.
