Mikan27lover: Ok, you were the first person to review on every chapter XD wow, thanks a lot! It really made me happy! His 'Other self' is nothing like HDWM Tsuna, he is far more unpredictable and he had a will on his own. Plus, he's darker and even cruel at some point soon. It helps if you watch the OVA and series plus the game of Black Rock Shooter. That way you won't be confuse of anything! But you can just ask PM if you still confuse. I hope will look forward when Tsuna will be going around unknowingly charms the heck of every girls he met! XD

VenomRogue: Hey there! Wow, haven't seen you for a while! XD Now, I will not be giving any spoilers but I assure you, when the girls meet with Tsuna's guardians it will not be pretty!

: Yes, Tsuna is an awesome guy and husband-to-be XD Well, what can I say? Tsuna is too naïve for his own good! Tsuna may have some seriously hot fashion sense now but that doesn't mean he will flaunt himself all the time. He will only do so when he is around Mato and the rest 'cause he is still so shy. In this chapter, the girls have already pack their things and left Tsuna's house before they went to the airport. Tsuna will not tell anyone about his new friends because he's afraid that they won't approve it. The Vongola will not interact with the girls so soon yet unfortunately and at some point, he will have to tell them that he is Vongola Decimo. Please expect more updates coming soon!

Phew! Was that everyone!? I hope so... God, I'm so sorry if this chapter seem a little off. I'm kinda afraid my writing mojo may have gone a little haywire... About the Beta Reader thing, I'm sorry 'cause I still haven't got one to help me. So please forgive me for any stupid mistakes and grammers you may find in this chapter... Now let's go on with this shin-dig shall we? Start!

I do not own Black Rock Shooter or Katekyo Hitman Reborn. But I can dream right?...

CHAPTER 10

Their Arrival

He could literally feel his world shook underneath his feet and he didn't like that one bit. He was well aware that his 'human self' family and so called friends – he growl at that – is returning back today. He also understood why Tsunayoshi was so nervous; he fears for him. He didn't know how to explain if his home tutor learns about his existence. But knowing that man, should he ever find out about him, he by not doubt will try to eradicate him under the pretense that he is a threat, a beast. Wouldn't he give to rip his smug face off. He continues on resting in his world to conserve his strength for future battles. Since Tsunayoshi was relatively calm and happy at the moment, there was no need for him to remedy anything. He was perfectly content if Tsunayoshi is happy. As for his 'guardians', he order them to search for more recruits to aid him.

Numbers meant nothing to him but it's good to have as many as strong allies as possible. After all, he's going up against something impossible so he needs to even the odds. He was sitting underneath the apple tree, cleaning his coffin, caring for it. It gleams wickedly along with its chains. Ever since he was 'born' he had been nurturing what's inside of the coffin dutifully. The coffin serves as not only his shield but his ultimate weapon as well. Releasing its content is a gamble but there is no doubt that triumph is his should he ever reveal the true strength of the content slumbering in the coffin. Once the coffin was clean enough, he waited for Tsunayoshi to wakes up. It should be in any moment now...

Never before had he woken up to a bright, cheerful day feeling heavy and down. The boy sat up from his bed and ruffles his already unruly hair. "How in the world am I supposed to lie to Reborn..." He sighs. Talk about a dilemma. Reborn had given him another text late a midnight, telling him to pick him up along with his family at the airport around the evening. No excuses. As for his guardians, they would be arriving either late at night or tomorrow. Tsuna tries to be happy that the fact that his dear ones are returning but he promise himself that he won't abandon the girls just because of them. He knew what it's like to feel abandon and he didn't want to inflict that pain toward others. The smell of food perks up his attention from his thoughts. It seems that the girls had woken up and is already making breakfast. Smiling a little, Tsuna went for a shower before heading downstairs. He didn't forget to remove his painted nails while he was in the shower though. Reborn would suspect of him if he finds out anything is different about him. So once he got out of the shower, he dressed in his plain clothes. He then hides his sketchbook beneath his pillow and his new clothes were carefully put away behind his old ones. He was a little embarrassed to show to his family at how much he had changed. God knows that they will never let it down if they ever finds out. By around 9, Tsuna went down to the kitchen. He was greeted by a cheerful Yomi who was currently setting the table.

"Oh, good morning Tsuna-kun!" Said the girl.

"Please sit down, your breakfast is on the table" She gesture to the plate of warm food that was present on the table. "Thanks Yomi-chan but you really didn't have to make me breakfast..." Tsuna reply softly but sat down. The girl smile before placing the rest of the food on the table. He guess that those were for the rest. "It's my pleasure, Tsuna-kun... It's the least I could do for you" She said, blushing cutely. Tsuna smiles, Yomi is really cute. Maybe even cuter than his crush, Kyoko! "Yo! Morning guys!" Mato chirped, when she enters the kitchen along with the rest of the girls. "Morning everyone" Tsuna greets. The girls began sitting on the table and ate the food heartedly. "Why isn't Tsuna-kun wearing his new clothes today?" Yuu inquires with a mouthful of rice. "...My family and friends are coming back today..." The brunette replies softly. "Ah, I see... So you don't want them to know that you've change, huh?" Saya guessed after she sips on her coffee. "My... Home tutor is really strict with me... He might not like it with the way how I've changed over the past few months..." The boy admits. "And there's another thing with my... friends... Some of them might have trouble accepting you girls..." Tsuna didn't really like how this is going. He seriously hopes that Reborn and his guardians would approve of his friendship with the girls but if they knew about him being a soon-to-be mafia boss, they might hate him. He could picture if perfectly; The girls leaving once they knew the truth about him. Once that happened, what will become of him? Would he be tossed back into the lonely abyss while his family and guardians remained ignorant? Just the thought itself causes his stomach to twist in pain. Sensing the brunette major discomfort, the girls exchange glances with each other.

"You know, Tsuna-kun..." Yuu begin. She was standing beside him, holding his hand in a soothing manner. "Even if your family and friends still treat you the same way, we will always be here for you" She explains. "That's right, Tsuna-kun..." Yomi was standing on his left, holding his hand. "We understand that there's something that you can't tell us. It's fine really. We just want you to know that we would never even think about leaving you alone again, okay?" Yomi continues. Tsuna blink at the 2 girls confession and turn around to face the rest. Mato, Kagari and Saya all nodded their head in agreement while giving the distress brunette a smile. "Thanks girls... I really needed to hear that..." He smiles. He couldn't believe how kind these girls are treating him! He definitely need to treat them something soon.

Since he got plenty of time until his family arrives, Tsuna spend the day away learning the guitar with Mato while the rest act as audience. He was amazed at himself for able to grasp the concept and basic at such short amount of time. It really surprise for someone as No-Good like him. "You're seriously getting better, Tsuna-kun! A little more practice and it would soon be easy for you to make your own song" Mato told him. Make his own song? Tsuna wonders if he actually has some time to do that... They went on towards their next activities which is advising Tsuna on his accessories. They brought him along for window shopping today to assess the perfect jewellery for him. Tsuna didn't mind at all; in fact he didn't feel at all girly when hanging out with the girls. Yeah, they might go on shopping and stuff but they also went on to the arcade, movies, museums and such. They even went to the basketball court to play together. Time passes quickly whenever Tsuna was with the girl and soon he receive another text message from his home tutor.

To: Dame-Tsuna

We're going to arrive at Japan in another hour or so. You better not be late when we arrive at the airport later.

From: Reborn

"What a demanding guy" Kagari commented. Tsuna was surprise to find the blonde girl was glancing from his shoulder to peek at his text message. "How can you stand him?" She adds. Her attention was diverted once Yomi was calling her from a random shop. Once she was out of sight only then the boy reply, "You have no idea..." He muttered under his breath. He went towards the girls and told them that he had to leave for the airport now. Since his family will be reaching to Japan soon. "Aww… So soon?" Yuu whine, she was eating an ice-cream cone while staring dejectedly at Tsuna. "I guess it can't be help…" Saya sigh before offering a smile to the brunette. "Common, I'll give you a ride"

Knowing that it would be futile, Tsuna wordlessly accept the woman's offer. Fortunately her car is big enough to carry everyone since the girls decide to tag along. The young Decimo was aware that he had to wait for at least an hour before his family and home tutor arrive but it was better than being late and suffer Reborn's punishment. The international airport was bustling and lively as ever as citizens and foreigners arrive and depart as they please. The girls and the young Mafioso entertain themselves by buying various treats from the nearby shops and watch the passer-by hurried along. It was almost 30 minutes before his family arrive when the girls said their goodbye and promise to contact him soon. With a wave, Tsuna watch them leaving the airport. The brunette didn't waste anymore time and head over to the private part of the terminal serve only for the Vongola. He stood infront of the doors to the arrival lounges, knowing that his family would be arriving very soon. Tsuna was greeted by a sight of 3 children running towards him. The young Decimo couldn't help but smile serenely as they pounce on him.

"Tsuna-nii!"

Tsuna laugh as they clung on him excitingly. "Welcome back you guys. How was the trip?" He asks as he ruffles Lambo's afro. "It was great Tsuna-nii!" I-Pin said. "We've been good Tsuna-nii! Just like you ask!" Fuuta exclaim brightly. "Is that so?" Tsuna playfully raised his voice disbelieve. "Don't be so hard on them Tsu-kun…" Came the voice of his mother. Sawada Nana walks towards her son wearing a warm smile on her face. Tsuna manages to untangle himself from the clutches of the children and went to embrace her. "I miss you Tsu-kun…" The woman said lovingly as she hugs her son. "I miss you too oka-san" Tsuna smile softly.

"Aren't you going to give your home tutor a hug too, Dame-Tsuna? I'm hurt"

Tsuna looked from his mother to the man in the doorway with that powerful, arrogant stance he always held. The curse had been lifted years ago, thanks to Verde discovery. Now the Arcobaleno were no longer in their babies form and yet the Tri-Ni-Set were not disturbed. The man before Tsuna approached and gives the boy a firm nod, both to give reassurance that he was back, and to check Tsuna hadn't been injured at all in his absence. If Reborn was anything it was aggressively protective, and since the adjustment to having his full-grown body back his protective streak just got meaner and scarier than ever.

"Welcome back Reborn…" Said the young Boss. Tsuna didn't know how to put it but by just being with the Hitman, he felt safe instantaneously. To simply put it, he dearly missed his sadistic tutor – not that he will ever tell him. Reborn would probably never let it down. Removing himself from his mother, Tsuna help to carry their luggage, following closely from behind. He smile as he watch his mother interact with the children who was laughing and shouting. It really feels great for them to return. He couldn't wait to tell the girls about it.

"Why do you reek of perfume Dame-Tsuna?" The Hitman ask the teen casually, as if asking him about the weather.

His heart stop beating for a brief moment and he suddenly find it hard to swallow the gulp forming in his throat. He silently curses himself for his negligence. Of course Reborn wouldn't let anything slip passed him. After all, he didn't earn the title of the greatest Hitman of all time for nothing. "I-I accidentally brush passed some women on the way here. You know how busy the airport is…" Tsuna said, fighting to keep his voice calm. The Hitman raised a delicate brow but allow to let that pass. For now. He knew straight away that his naïve student was keeping something from his knowing. The ride back home was comfortable since Reborn had ordered for a limousine to pick them up from the airport. Once they had arrive home, his mother had set to make dinner even though Tsuna had insisted that he will make the meals tonight but his mother simply wave it away, saying that she need to make sure her cooking expertise hadn't gone rusty due to their long holiday. Tsuna merely smile and went to the kids to help them unpack.

Meanwhile, after Reborn have finish his own unpacking and was about to went downstairs, he came across a rather peculiar object that made him very much surprise. He was still staying in the same room with Tsuna with the excuse of a possibility of a sniper lurking around in the middle of the night. At that time, Tsuna was simply too tired to argue with his stubborn tutor and had watched quietly as he set up his hammock.

A small, rectangle object was reflected by the sunlight and had successfully caught his eye. The object was beneath Tsuna's bed. He slowly crouches down and a string of impressive curses mutter from his lips. It seems that he still needs to beat some sense of hygiene to his no-good student. There were many useless junk and clothes not to mention dusts accumulate beneath his bed. As he pushes aside an empty box, he grabs the shinning object. He got up and blew the dust away. What he saw had just ignited his curiosity – something that won't be diminishes or satiate easily.

It was a macaroon flavour lip gloss with the initial I.K
