Caiossu! How's everyone doing? Yeah I know it's up to a crawl of updating but I really don't have a choice in the matter with my education/grades are at stake here. So, to you dedicated readers, thank you for waiting!

Also during the time, within 25-year old Tsuna's chapters, I decided to add Reborn's side of the story since his importance in Tsuna's life is significant. In other words Reborn's part, cough torturing-Tsuna cough, intersects with the characters that will play in this chapter… actually throughout the story… okay from this half of the story… Actually-

Reborn: (click) Get to the point!

FXF91: (crying) This story will take longer than I thought!

Tsuna: You really need to learn moderate control.

FXF91: Tsuna-kun is being mean to me… (Still crying but hiding a bottle of eye drops behind back)

Yamamoto: Aww, Tsuna you made her cry.

Tsuna: (flustering around while Reborn smirks in approval) Ahh, I wasn't being mean! Don't cry!

Everyone (who isn't included in this chapter): HOPE YOU ENJOY! CIAO, CIAO!

Tsuna: Don't cry anymore!

Chapter 10: Young Rain

"What to do now?" Tsuna said as he walked down the familiar streets he remembered when he lived in Namimori. At first he was going to Namimori Middle School, however, if he was back at the other time, when he was fifteen, and walked down these streets, he would have been more interested. But he was twenty years into the past where he was five and he didn't really know what to do. So he was just walking down alleyways and roads randomly.

"Reborn is trailing me, or so I think," he glanced over his shoulders for any person with a fedora close behind. Of course, he didn't find any. Tsuna sighed tucking his hands behind his head as he looked up at the sky, "And everyone I know is either year's younger or in a different… country." He stopped, realizing what he just said. A slightly evil grin appeared on his face, one which Reborn would say will make him proud, especially since a certain skylark crossed his mind, "Which also means that a chibi-Hibari-kun lives here as well."

With new enthusiasm he ran towards the shopping district where he remembered seeing the skylark patrol when busy in the streets. Though he knew that finding him there would be unlikely, it couldn't hurt to make sure.

…

"Hmmm, the direct decedent of the Primo's bloodline, Sawada Tsunayoshi," Reborn said smirking as he glanced over at the edge of his hiding place, "This person is really the squirt that I will molded twenty years later? It's quite amazing at the job I did," He was following Tsuna alright, but he soon realized he had to have a few yards in-between them in order to get the brat to not notice his presence. It's an amazing skill in which he noted in his book of, To-Train-Tsuna-To-Become-The-Greatest-Leader. He ducked behind the wall again when he saw the boy turn his head to see the presence following him.

"I will seriously look forward to the day when I will get to tutor you for real," Reborn's smile increased, pulling the fedora down to shadow his eyes from the sun, "I can hardly wait already." When he could hear the man talking to himself, then quickly rose in volume with amusement laced in, then running footsteps, the hitman followed.

…

It wasn't long before Tsuna found himself in the shopping district. Some girls that were passing by stared at him for a moment before walking off whispering about him in utter excitement. Tsuna waved it off as just random chatter as he walked down the streets with no directional preference hoping that he would catch a glimpse of an ebony-haired boy with the same narrowing eyes he saw in the teen and adult version.

He was so focused on finding the chibi-skylark, and the ideas to irritate the boy as payback, that he didn't even realize what happened before he felt a bump on his leg with a little boy falling on the other end.

"Ouch, nii-chan, watch where you're going," the boy said rubbing the back of his messy black hair.

"Ah, sorry kid, I wasn't paying… atten… tion…" Tsuna trailed off, when he realized who he had bumped into.

"Yamamoto...?"

"Takashi!" a voice sounded out ahead of Tsuna, making the two of them to look up to the source. As expected, the younger version of Yamamoto's father, Tsuyoshi, ran down the street and stopped in front of them with a bag over his shoulder, "I told you to watch out didn't I?"

"I'm just too excited, Tou-san!" Yamamoto smiled like usual as he got up and dusted off his little-league jersey pants.

"Well it's not an excuse of bumping into someone in the process," Tsuyoshi sighed shifting the weight of the bag, which Tsuna could see the end of a shinai poking out of.

"But I'm going to be late for practice if I don't hurry, so I'm going on ahead!" he said, bowing in apology once more to Tsuna and dashed off once more down the road.

"Ah, Takashi!" the father called out only to see the boy disappear around the corner, "Sheesh, he doesn't even realize we have half an hour left before it starts. Ah well," he sighed and turned towards Tsuna, "Sorry about my kid bumping into you like that. It's his first big game coming up so he's really pumped about practice."

"No problem," Tsuna replied hiding the still surprise from his face of the sudden meeting, "It was sort of my fault for paying attention to my surroundings," he slightly rubbed the back of his head embarrassed, "Usually I am aware about those things, but something interesting was on my mind."

"Ha-ha, don't be so modest. It was Takashi's fault as well. But as long as he didn't get hurt, he's fine," Tsuyoshi said as he laughed effortlessly. An image of the laughing Rain Guardian replaced the elder making a pang of guilt cross his heart at realizing the future that the mentioned son would hold.

Tsuyoshi realized the silence and solemn look he had. The man was bothered that was for sure, and the feeling around the kid seemed more powerful than his timid appearance. A presence that was similar to a certain boss of a Famiglia. Silence kept into the air for a few more seconds making him shift gears. The moment he opened his mouth was when the others head shot up quickly and the expression vanished with only a large warm spread across his face making him blink in surprise at the recovery.

"Sorry for worrying you," Tsuna answered to the worried expression on Tsuyoshi's face.

"Well at least you are alright…" he replied back though still speculating on what was the sudden mood change about. Bells started chiming from a clock off of a nearby department store, "Opps, got to run, practice is about to start."

"Do you mind if I come along!" Tsuna blurted out when he was about to leave.

Tsuyoshi turned, a little confused at the request, "I don't see why not when it's in public view. But they are just practicing, so you won't see much action, if that's alright."

"Ah, right…" he blushed realizing his mistake, "I'll come along."

With that they smiled at each other and started down towards the baseball area.

….. (A few minutes before)….

Not too far behind, hidden on a side of one of the stores, Reborn watched casually as his future-pupil knocked an oncoming kid over. A twitch of his eyebrows made his recent comment about 'awareness' trashed out of the window. He turned the already ten pages what-Tsuna-will-work-on and wrote boldly, 'Tsuna will continue training even when he turns an old man.'

"Yamamoto…?" Tsuna's voice clearly heard from the young man's head made him pause his writing to look at the surprised expression on his face.

"He must know him from the future," Reborn concluded writing the name down as another reference for Family members in the future. When he finished, he paused feeling like he had heard that name somewhere before.

"Takashi!" a familiar male's voice called out as he ran towards them. It took one look at the man for information to open and process within the Hitman's head making him smirk at his findings.

Yamamoto Tsuyoshi: one of the top swordsmen in CEDEF HQ, but due to his wife passing away he had retired early to take care of his only son. Location: Unknown… until now that is.

Usually, the retirees of CEDEF were supposed to report on their location on where they will continue to live in so that financial support can help them when in need. But there was one exception… the relation to the descendants of the Primo Famiglia.

Iemitsu was Vongola Primo's descendant, so his location was to be kept in upmost secrecy; that included Tsuna and the mother, Nana. The only ones that know were Nono himself, and Reborn, specially privileged since he will be tutoring the Advisor's son in the future. However, the main problem was Tsuyoshi. For him to have his information hidden he must be related to the Primo Famiglia. It would explain the missing records completely.

"But I can't be sure. If it's true Nono will tell me in the future... hopefully…" Reborn trailed off eyeing an exchange of words between father and son before the boy ran off. Tsuna continued to stare blankly at where the child had disappeared before a conversation started between the two adults with ease. Then his expression changed to someone in deep thought.

Wondering about what brought about the sudden mood change Reborn tried to read the kid, however, he couldn't get through. It was as if a solid 20 ft. wide wall was surrounding his mentality. By the time Reborn could even shake out of his surprise the smile returned. Another exchange started and quickly cut off as a bell chime rang across the shopping district. The Hitman watched as Tsuna followed Tsuyoshi towards the direction of where the boy earlier headed and followed once more.

…. (Back with Tsuna)….

Tsuyoshi and Tsuna were already hearing the hitting of ball on bat, running, and cheers from the coaches as the kids practiced. It wasn't long before they could see the field, with Yamamoto the most enthusiastic out of all the players.

"Your son must be anticipating this game for weeks if he's like that," Tsuna said smiling warmly at seeing his young friend running after hitting a ball with a large grin. He caught them coming up and waved before going back to running.

"Weeks…? More like every minute since he entered into the Little League," Tsuyoshi laughed remembering the child practicing everyday outside in the park.

Takashi stepped up to the batter again, waited for the ball to fly towards him. Once it did he hit it dead on once again and started running as he got cheers from his coach.

Tsuna still had his eyes on the ball as it flew over the fence for home run when he spotted another raven-haired boy with narrow eyes too familiar to even look away as he walked past the area. A grin on his face as his main objective was found, and easily located.

Tsuyoshi, who was paying attention to the newly-befriended-stranger, saw the eyes widened. He only followed the new friend's gaze to a walking child behind the fence. When:

"Sorry, Yamamoto-san, I'm going now!" Tsuyoshi blinked in surprise at the sudden call. He turned just in time to see Tsuna run off, jumping a fence, and landed gracefully, then started for a run as if he had done it thousands of time.

Even though it was something he had seen so many times in his occupation beforehand, he was more interested in one thing "How did he know my family name?" With his gaze still fixated on the receding figure, he then saw a man in fedora facing him, giving a slight bow then ran after the man. "That was Reborn… What is he doing here?"

"Tou-san!" a child's voice forced him to look away and down towards the source. Takashi looked up sweaty but smiling fully and excitedly, "Did you see my homeruns!"

Tsuyoshi smiled, forgetting what he saw and put it aside. He reached down and ruffled his son's hair, "Of course! And Kaa-san would be really proud of you!"

"Of course Kaa-san would!" Takashi smiled back up at the sky, "Because she is always watching us, right Kaa-san?" The sky brightened slightly as if in agreement. The son turned back to his father and looked around, "I thought that onii-san was here, did he go?"

"Yeah, but I think we will see him again... (Someday)" Tsuyoshi thought at the end. He wasn't sure, since it was his gut feeling, but he was sure he looked like the kid of his boss, "Naa~, it couldn't have been him. From what I remembered, he's the same age as Takashi. That guy is about in his mid-twenties… though with the things that I have seen such things like that could be possible."

"OI, Yamamoto-kun, breaks over," a kid who was also in the same team called breaking the father and child's thoughts, "Coach wants us to do another practice run.

"Okay!" Takashi waved back then went back to his father, "I'm going!"

"Yosh! Once we are done here, we'll make some sushi after this!" the father smiled when the kid's face brightened.

"Alright! I'm going to do twice as much so that I can eat all of the sushi!" he said then ran off leaving Tsuyoshi to just sweat-dropped at the response.

"Hopefully not that much… after all I have a store to open."

Like it, dislike it?

Anyways thanks again! Sorry about the sudden switch of names because it would have been confusing to call the both of them Yamamoto (since it is their family name and all).

Tsuna's disguise form is called 'Tsuyo' and not 'Tsuyoshi' (just want to make clear if it confuses people). Tsuyoshi is Yamamoto's dad, if some didn't know that…

Alright that's it that I wanted to clear up!

Once again everyone!

Ciao, Ciao! See you again –dessu!
