Disclaimer: I do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn
Well, I'm currently at 517 songs on my iTunes so… this might take a while…
Note: Longchamp's "Desolation Bullet" makes the person shot lament over everything in his life in order to get other people to feel sorry for him, and, like the Dying Will Bullet, the person loses all his clothes save his underwear. Joy…
Warning: A small amount of cursing appears at the end.
Desolation Bullet Revised
Song: "Wait for You" by Elliot Yamin
Characters: Tsuna, Yamamoto (and Hibari)

The Tenth boss of the almighty Vongola Famiglia let out a long depressed sigh as he threw his paperwork down on the desk.
"Tenth, I'll finish the work for you!" Gokudera, eager to show his status as the right-hand man of the Sky, offered.
Tsuna shook his head. "It's not that…"
"It's something trivial; just leave him alone," the Arcobaleno, now in his normal older form, said indifferently from the window, sipping a glass of sake specially imported from Japan earlier that day.
"Reborn!" Tsuna exclaimed. "How can something like this be trivial?"
"It is," Reborn replied coolly.
"What happened?" Gokudera inquired.
"Yamamoto…" Tsuna muttered. "I gave him a mission, and I didn't know that he had a baseball game on the same day."
"Huh? Couldn't you have just given the mission to someone else then? It's not like Yamamoto's that serious about things anyway."
"He didn't say anything and just left. He's probably mad that I was so inconsiderate about his baseball… He should've returned three days ago…" Tsuna began sounding a little strange to Gokudera, and the Storm Guardian tensed up as he went on high alert.
"You're overreacting," Reborn scolded. He paused. "I thought the effects should've worn off by now…" the Arcobaleno muttered thoughtfully.
Tsuna suddenly froze and pulled into a fetal position on his chair, rocking back and forth nervously. "He must have been so offended by my ignorance that he's left and never coming back! Ah! Why am I so useless? The world's coming to an end now!" he burst out in lamentations as Gokudera rushed to him, worried. "I've lost all meaning to life! I'm an incompetent leader!"
"Hey Tsuna!" Ryohei came crashing in through the door, finding a strange scene before him.
"Hey! Calm down! Tenth!" Gokudera yelled, trying to keep Tsuna from jumping out the window.
"Eh…" Ryohei began.
"I accidentally switched the Dying Will Bullet with one of the Desolation Bullet Longchamp's family send us the other day as a gift," Reborn explained, shrugging. "They've seemed to have modified it quite a lot. For one thing, the effects last a lot longer and are more severe, and the target doesn't lose his clothes anymore."
"My life is covered in darkness! There is no hope for me!" Tsuna repeated.
"Stop Tsuna to the extreme!" Gokudera heard a familiar excited voice behind him and braced himself for chaos.

"Ah, that was a good game," Yamamoto said contently as he left the baseball stadium, dragging Hibari along with him, who was in shock from the suffocating aura of so many people crowded into one place. The swordsman had effectively kept the other from killing or attacking anyone by hiding Hibird and promising to give the animal back to Hibari after they suffered through the game.
"That…" Hibari finally managed to mutter.
"That's in exchange for my mission, right?" Yamamoto asked, uncertain. "I didn't know how to thank you for taking out the target Tsuna gave me so fast in my place, so I figured that I'd pay for a baseball game."
"You know I don't like crowds…" Hibari replied as he glared at the swordsman.
"Aw, but it was fun, wasn't it? You even caught one of the home run balls and gave it to another fan!" To be exact, Yamamoto had taken the Cloud's tonfa away, and Hibari had seen the incoming baseball as a possible weapon. Unfortunately for Hibari and fortunately for the four people the ball hit after he chucked it into the screaming audience, the Cloud Guardian's throw wasn't as hard as Yamamoto's.
"Give me back my tonfa…" Hibari growled. "And Hibird…"
"Okay!" he said naively as he handed the tonfa back and produced Hibird from behind a tree.
Yamamoto Takeshi was well bitten to death a few moments later.

"Baseball Idiot!" Gokudera yelled as soon as the door opened to the main mansion. "Oh…" the Storm Guardian sighed when he saw Hibari instead of Yamamoto.
"Here," Hibari said neutrally as he held out the semi-conscious Rain Guardian to Gokudera on the back of Yamamoto's collar.
"Hey, what's up?" Yamamoto said, grinning with a dazed look on his face.
Hibari let go and the Rain Guardian nearly fell to the floor when Gokudera didn't catch him. Glaring, the Cloud Guardian stomped past them to the interior of his house, a happy Hibird flying after him.
"What did you do?" Gokudera asked, narrowing his eyes as Yamamoto struggled slowly to his feet.
"Ah, I took Hibari to a baseball game after kidnapping Hibird in order to thank him for doing my mission when I went to another earlier baseball game," the other replied, grinning.
Gokudera stared at him for a second. "I'm just going to pretend that I didn't hear that… Anyway, Tsuna…"
"Ah, Yamamoto!" Tsuna yelled from behind them when he saw the Hibari-inflicted wounds on the Rain Guardian. "You tried to commit suicide! It's all my fault!"
"Wait, Tenth!" Gokudera yelled after him as Tsuna ran upstairs, only to be caught by Ryohei.
"I caught him!" the Sun Guardian yelled to the others below.
"Yeah I know…" Gokudera muttered to himself, sighing.
"Uh… what happened?" Yamamoto asked, confused.
"Tsuna got shot by the Desolation Bullet and he's stuck in that mode…"
"Oh…" Yamamoto put a hand to his chin thoughtfully. "Maybe we can…"
"What the hell?" they heard a strange yell from the other side of the house, cutting Yamamoto off.
After a few seconds of silence, Reborn ran past them, an amused look on his face. "So the bullet reverts back to that old effect if the person has nothing to lament… interesting," they heard him say to himself before he disappeared behind a corner.
"I think we should run…" Gokudera said, paling.
However, they were already too late as Hibari ran into the foyer in nothing but his underwear, tonfa brandished and ready to kill. A trail of blood ran down his forehead, marking where the bullet had entered. The guardians stared at each other for a moment before Hibari narrowed his eyes, a blush creeping across his face as he snarled, "I'll bite you all to death."
Note: Ah, Reborn the scientist is dangerous he he.
I'm not completely sure about the translation of the name for Longchamp's bullet, but "Desolation Bullet" sounds better than the "Worry Bullet" they had on Wikipedia… So, what has this got to do with Elliot Yamin's song? Well… not much haha XD. I was just thinking of Tsuna doing the waiting for Yamomoto, who never gave him a chance to explain that he didn't know that there was a baseball game. Other than that, the rest of the story just kind of appeared as I wrote, so it's all kind of random.
As always, thanks for reading!
