Lazura: Now to live up to CHnH's legacy, NH shall continue the story! XD

Previously
From a distance, Reborn watched as Tsukiko continued to conform the two.
These two predators.
Had now found a new target.
"And it had to be their boss..." Reborn frowned, "It's as if I see a mirror image of Dame-Tsuna and guardians again."
"Although. It's good." He spoke to himself before deciding to leave, "Makes it easier to train all of them before they arrive to challenge the successor."
The flame dispersed as she returned to her usual, or in Yue's term, herbivorous self.
"So Yue-senpai and Kudou-senpai, will you two comply on my terms?"
Tsukiko held both of her hands out to the two, awaiting their answer.
Now
The wind silently breezed passed the trio.
Tsukiko wondered about why both Yue and Kudou are still standing there like statues.
...Are they still making a decision?
Rather than getting a sign of truce from them.
She soon dropped her hands, the moment Tsukiko sensed their predator aura.
"Kufufu...Sawada-san." Kudou started, "Do you really think I'd comply to the terms of my enemy?"
"Agreed." Yue eyed both Kudou and Tsukiko raising his tonfas, "The carnivorous side of you has finally showed up."
"Someone other than Hibari Yue arrived to satisfy my blood lust."
"I've been waiting to see the potential you've hidden within you, Sawada Tsukiko."
What.
Is.
This?!
Tsukiko shrunk under the gazes of both Yue and Kudou squeaking, "HIE!"
"...!" She froze for a moment until someone slammed the rooftop door wide open.
"Hime!" Charged Nagoya as he threw bombs directly toward Yue and Kudou. However the two can easily avoid contact of the bombs, "Tch! I won't let anyone touch my boss!"
"Tsukiko!" Running behind Nagoya came in Ryuuga.
"Are you alright?!" Ryuuga asked Tsukiko.
Tsukiko in return responded, "I'm fine, but Kaito-kun!"
The girl gave a worried expression to the boy protecting her,"I told you to not hurt anyone while we're in school grounds! And how in the world did you two find me?!"
"Reborn."
...Reborn. D-Don't tell me...
He allowed Yue-senpai and Kuodou-senpai to fight as well as involving me?!
Nagoya exclaimed,"But, Hime! Those two have the intention to fight anyone that's worthy of their level. If I don't protect you...!"
"Kaito-kun, I can protect myself." The eleventh generation boss proclaimed, "I can't be a boss if I can't stop my own guardians."
"...!" Kaito faltered his gaze shifting to the two predators across from them and back to his boss, "You mean...those two."
Tsukiko nodded, "Now. Stand down, Kaito-kun."
"Tsukiko." Ryuuga held a face of concern, "You're not planning to fight against Yue. I'll fight him. You can't handle Yue's strength."
Blinking in surprise, Tsukiko and Kaito couldn't believe what Ryuuga is saying. Did he...?
Know of Yue's strength when these two friends fight?
"...and..." Ryuuga pointed at Kudou, "You."
"YOU REJECTED MY INVITATION IN JOINING THE BOXING CLUB!"
Kaito and Tsukiko dropped to floor.
No matter what...Ryuu-nii/lawn head...is still the same.
"Do you really think I'd be interested in such vulgar activities?" Kudou spoke in a poetic tone yet that one line literally had the hidden message:There is no way that I am joining your stupid club.
"Ryu-nii." Tsukiko sighed, "I can do this. I'm not the same little girl you promised to protect."
"Hi-"
"The same goes for you, Kaito-kun." She interjected, "You need to stop protecting me, let me protect myself."
The sun guardian and storm guardian didn't speak. Although they understood what Tsukiko meant.
Turning over to the other two guardians, Tsukiko stepped forward stating, "Yue-senpai. Kudou-senpai."
Yue and Kudou watched the girl. Waiting for her decision.
"When I'm stronger. When I find myself fit in fighting the both of you...then I'll promise you two." A flare of orange orbs appeared the moment Tsukiko made her decision, "I'll give you two the fight you wanted from me."
"Hn." Yue lowered his weapons heading down the stairs to continue his disciplinary duties, "You can do whatever you want. As long as you and your pack of loud herbivores don't disturb peace."
"HEY! YUE!" Ryuuga chased after the cloud guardian, "DON'T THINK I'LL FORGIVE YOU IN TRYING TO HURT TSUKIKO!"
Leaving Nagoya, Tsukiko, and Kudou in the rooftop.
Kudou allowed his trident to disappear using another plume of mist while walking over to Tsukiko, "...I'll be always waiting. Though..."
"I do enjoy your company. So please do make the effort to discuss about books when you're free." Kudou muttered in her ear. Tsukiko, returning to her normal self, flushed.
"S-Senpai..."
Only to have Nagoya pulling his boss away from the mist guardian glared, "You. Are you possibly...that mist guardian's..."
"Who knows." The monochromatic eyed student commented, "I don't follow anyone, especially that man and his group. But, even he can't see how peculiar people of the mafia are. Especially the special power they wield at the palms of their hands."
"...Kudou-senpai."
"We'll meet again, Sawada Tsukiko, Vongola Undecima." Bowing, Kudou slowly disappeared in his own plume of mist, not a single trace of Kudou stood.
Nagoya clicked his tongue in frustration, "He even knew about your title. Listen, Hime. Sooner or later there will be people going after your life. You can't always protect yourself."
"That's why you need the help of your guardians." Nagoya pointed out, "Our job is to protect you. You can't face everything up alone."
"...I understand." Tsukiko replied, "But. I want to protect everyone too. I want to protect those precious to me. With me succeeding papa...there will be a day when my family and friends will become endangered."
"I want to become a boss that can protect all of them. So please, Kaito-kun. You can't keep me hidden in the dark when it comes to following my future job as the next mafia boss. I don't like that."
"..." Kaito muttered silently, "I understand, hime."
That Night, Sawada Residence
Tsukiko pondered while staring at the ceiling of her room.
The last guardian.
Is it possible for me to find him or her?
The star guardian.
Turning to the side, Tsukiko stared at the window.
It's completely dark outside. All you could see were the shiny stars of the night sky.
Will Mayu-san be willing enough to tell show the star guardian succeeding her? Or will I have to find out on my own?
Closing her eyes, Tsukiko peacefully went to sleep.
In her dream-like state. Tsukiko found herself in a room filled with books.
"Eh? A library?"
Scanning her surroundings, Tsukiko soon spotted a familiar being reading books while sitting in a desk.
"Kudou-senpai?!"
Lifting his gaze away from the book, Kudou held a smirk.
"I see that the connection worked." Snapping his book shut, Kudou stood up.
"Welcome, Sawada-san." Kudou welcomed the bewildered girl, "This domain is only opened to a few exceptions. You being one of them."
"Y-You're not doing this to possess my body to take over the Vongola Famiglia right?" Tsukiko held her guard up, she didn't trust that Kudou knew about her being a part of the Vongola Famiglia. Especially when Nagoya explained the reason of how the true mist guardian of her father originally aimed to manipulate the mafia world by trying to take over her father's body.
"Why would I do that?" Tsukiko shivered as Kudou stared down at her from a distance ,"You're the most interesting person I've ever met. Even after I've returned from the six paths of reincarnation. I still wonder..."
After one blink, she found Kudou lifting her head by Tsukiko's chin. Forcing Tsukiko to stare at Kudou's red and yellow-colored eyes.
"Will you be able to have me as your ally?"
...What?
"Once you find out the truth behind the incident dealing with the ring on your necklace from now on..." Kudou continued, "Will you be able to trust me as your mist guardian?"
Tsukiko didn't know how to respond. Silence was all Tsukiko could give to her mist guardian.
Kudou smiled, "You don't have to answer me now. However since this connection will stop...I'll give you a piece of information I learned of."
Muttering, Tsukiko's eyes widened. Just when Tsukiko wanted to say something. Tsukiko awakened laying on her bed as usual.
A pale expression left against her face.
"No...It can't be..."
Hibari Yue is the son of Hibari Mayuri, right? Wouldn't it mean that there is someone else can wield star flames? Someone other than that skylark?
I had my suspicions, but it can't be.
Suzu-chan...is the next guardian?!
Hibari Residence
Entering his japanese style house, Hibari Yue met face to face with a small girl.
The small girl appeared to have shoulder length black hairstyle and dark-brown eyes. A small silver bell held by a white ribbon tied creating a side ponytail. Wearing the required Namimori preschool uniform consisting of a blue
"Nii-chan! Welcome home!" The little girl greeted the aloof teen, "Oka-chan! Nii-chan is back!"
"Thank you, Suzuka." The woman entering the fray patted Suzuka's head. Suzuka giggled happily delighted of her mother's praise. The woman wearing a black blazer, white dress shirt, and a black skirt. Her familiar short black hair and brown eyes stared at Yue. A smile worn across her face. While two rings were held. A wedding ring band as well as a special ring bearing the symbol of the Vongola Famiglia.
"Mayuri! Mayuri!" chirped a familiar yellow bird, "Suzu! Suzu!"
"Hibird!" Suzuka tried to grab the bird on her brother's shoulder, to only have Hibird land a top of her head, "Hehe! Hibird, let's play in my room!"
Dashing up the stairs, Mayuri and Yue can still hear the fit of laughter of little Suzuka.
"Yue. You seem to be looking more and more like your father." Mayuri sighed.
"It's none of your concern whether I resemble him or not." Yue responded while heading up the stairs, "I'm going to keep maintaining the peace of Namimori. That carnivore of a father isn't worthy to continue protecting this town."
"...Despising your father just because he became the Foundation leader as well as the cloud guardian of the Vongola Famiglia...huh?" Mayuri leaned against the wall watching her first child head to his room, "You really hate the fact that your father handed you the title of disciplinary committee leader and not letting you earn it on your own."
Mayuri made a small laugh while closing her eyes, "Yue. Is undeniably an image of Kyoya."
"Now, tomorrow, should I go see Kyoko or Haru?" Mayuri thought out loud, "Maybe Hana? It's been a while since I've hung out with them...I need to at least see them before I return to Tsuna and the others."
"Oka-san! Where did you put the ribbons? I want to put a bow on Hibird!" Suzuka called.
"Wait for me, Suzuka. I need to make a call."
"Okay!"
So cute. I can't believe she's Kyoya's child and mines, she's too cute!
Mayuri swooned, she always found Suzuka adorable. Though it's strange to think she's Hibari Kyoya's daughter. Everyone found it more believable that Suzuka is Mayuri's, but Hibari Kyoya...people would only wonder.
Taking out her phone, Mayuri speed dialed, "Hello, Tsuna."
"Eh? Reborn is here already?" Mayuri nodded a bit after listening to Tsuna for a bit, "Don't worry. Michael is going to watch over them. Yes, he returned earlier than what I expected. I'm going to be returning to the base soon. "
"...I'll make sure of it." Ending the call, Mayuri stretched a bit allowing excitement to spread within her, "Can't wait to see Tsuna's daughter. It's been a while since I've seen her."
"I also can't wait to see the other guardians succeeding the others."
Lazura: Oh yeah, and about the Varia having children...I'm still debating on some of the characters having children. However I already have the idea of two members set still claiming their titles as members of the Varia. So probably after I get the rest of the guardians in then I'll make a decision on who'll have children and who'll just have successors (similar to Gokudera's nephew's situation kind of)
