Disclaimer: I do not own KHR. If I did Tsuna would be a true super uke and smarter, sorry as much as I love and will write about the lovable idiot, Goku and Naruto have made it so too many main characters are idiots.

Summary: What if Tsuna was smart, like genius hacker smart, but decided to hide it behind an average student exterior.

Chapter 20: Nice day out… sort of

*Knock… knock…*

"Tsuna-san! Haru has a surprise!"

Tsuna groaned when he realized his stalker… err friend had decided it was a good idea to stop by… while he still had blood on his shirt.

"It's open!"

Haru, after stalking him for months, found out he was involved in some form of crime a couple of years ago. Tsuna had decided it wasn't worth the stress and admitted to being the only child of a Mafioso. Surprisingly, rather than scaring her off, she fell in love with him.

He was just glad she'd been on vacation with her parents while he was integrating Reborn into his life.

Haru walked into Tsuna's room just as he pulled off his soiled school shirt and was preparing to put on a clean orange hoodie.

"Tsu-Tsuna-san!"

Haru covered her face with her hands and tried to hide her burning face. Even if Tsuna wasn't interested in Haru, he still could help but smirk when he noticed her trying to sneak looks through her fingers.

"You needed something Haru?" Tsuna finished putting on the hoodie.

"O-oh yeah! There was a little boy looking for you."

"Lambo?"

Tsuna walked closer to the door and realized a weak presence was hiding just out of site. It was small and no one he recognized. It felt like a child, a young child.

"No, he said his name was Fuuta."

Tsuna nearly choked on his tongue when a small head of light brown/blonde hair and honey eyes peaked from around the door. There was no mistaking it, the kid was…

"Ranking Fuuta?"

"That's right, Sawada-san."

Tsuna looked the small boy up and down. He knew all about the boys' strange ability to rank even the most abstract skills. Fuuta had no mafia family he was associated with; he was an orphan that was picked up by Tomaso famiglia when someone noticed the strange air around him. Once they figured out what he could do, Fuuta had been locked in a room with a pen and a lot of paper, told to rank anything and everything on the mafia.

Although he never claimed responsibility for it, Tsuna had been the one to go in and remotely unlock the Fuuta's door and helped him go from safe house to safe house. He'd been prepared to take care of Fuuta, but he hadn't expected Fuuta to show up at his house before he could direct him to it.

"How…"

Tsuna smacked himself in his forehead when Fuuta showed him the large red leather bound book that housed his rankings. Of course Fuuta would be able to find the real names of the top ranked hackers in the world.

"Sawada Tsunayoshi ranked number one in the world as a hacker and number one mafia boss most likely to…" Fuuta bit his lip and shifted from one foot to the other while Haru just stood there looking confuse. "… most likely to help a child who needs it."

Tsuna walked over and patted the fidgeting boy on the shoulder before he turned his attention to Haru.

"Can you leave us alone, Haru?"

"Yeah… I'll see you tomorrow." Haru hesitated at the door.

"Yeah." Tsuna said as he gave her a small smile.

Once they were alone, Tsuna turned his attention back to Fuuta. He was understandably nervous and Tsuna didn't want to spook him.

"I have a couple of other kids living here. They're all related to the mafia in some way."

Fuuta's head shot up and his eyes widened, a little bit of hope and fear bleeding into the honey depths.

"How- how old?"

"I-Pin and Lambo are both five-years-old." Fuuta looked excited. "Reborn's here too, but he doesn't really count."

"Reborn… ranks number one for most talented assassin."

While the words should have probably been spoken fearfully, Fuuta actually sounded relieved. Tsuna could only assume it was because most people wouldn't be stupid enough to challenge a Vongola heir and Reborn.

Thinking about it, Tsuna froze for a second. Fuuta knew who he was and what he did. If he let it slip to Reborn…

"Listen, Fuuta."

Fuuta heard the serious tone in Tsuna's voice and instantly got nervous; he was hoping Tsuna didn't send him away.

"You can't tell Reborn about my being Yoshie."

"I know…" Tsuna sighed in relief. "Yoshie's identity is the fourth best kept secret in the world and if it's in the top five, I can't tell anyone who doesn't already know the truth."

Only fourth huh? "Do I know any of the other top five?"

"You know them all."

"Sweet."

KHRKHRKHR

It had taken all of five seconds for Lambo, I-Pin, Akira (Akira has a soft spot for little kids), and Nana to fall in love with Fuuta, who would now be living with the six of them.

The house was a fairly nice size, but since it only had three bedrooms, Tsuna and Nana decided it was time to look into a bigger house with more open space for Akira. Nana had been a little reluctant at first, not wanting to leave the house she and Iemitsu had bought years ago, but eventually conceded that there was no choice with how many people were living in the house.

So on Sunday, Nana took the kid's and Reborn out to look at houses, while Tsuna spent some quality time with his newest Guardian, getting to know him better is what Reborn had said.

"Where do you want to go, Juudaime?"

"Hmmm…" Tsuna looked around the shopping district, trying to find something interesting to do. "We could go to the arcade and get something to eat later… I also wanted to check out the electronics store for a new part I ordered…" Tsuna had to stifle a laugh when he saw Hayato taking notes. "How about you, Hayato? Is there anything you want to do today?"

Hayato's eyes widened as he stopped taking notes.

"I wouldn't want to interfere with what you want, Juudaime!"

"You wouldn't be." Tsuna assured puppy eyed boy. "We'll have plenty of time to do a lot of things, and besides…" Tsuna smiled as Hayato relaxed a little. "…I'm supposed to be getting to know you better, right?"

"R-right, of course." Hayato swallowed and took a deep breath. "I would be honored if Juudaime and I could see a movie together… or maybe we could go shopping." Hayato blushed. "I-I mean… not in a girly way, we just could… get some stuff we need?

Tsuna tried, he really did, but he could help the chuckle that escaped at Hayato's attempt. Seeing the bomber boy look even more distraught, Tsuna thought it was time to calm the boy down.

"That'd be fun, besides, guys can like getting new stuff too, and you don't have to be a girl to have fun." Tsuna gave Hayato a mischievous wink. "Besides, we just have to buy guy stuff and no one will care, but wouldn't it be fun…" Tsuna quieted down and leaned in to whisper in Hayato's ear. "… to mess with some people and buy something really girly. I'll just give it to my mom later."

Hayato looked at Tsuna with wide eyes before he started laughing. Even if it wasn't his ideal day off, Tsuna could help but enjoy the day and the company. Hayato was actually a pretty good friend when he didn't let his temper get the better of him.

"Haha… Juu-Juudaime… I didn't… haha… know…" Hayato struggled to get control of himself, but it took a few minutes to do so. "I didn't know Juudaime had such a good sense of humor! I would be honored to have such a day with Juudaime."

You know… I think I may really end up liking this one. He's really not that bad. Tsuna thought as Hayato excitedly looked for a map of the area, so they could find all of the best spots. I think he forgot how familiar with the area I am.

The two did have a good time. Going from the arcade to the electronics store, and grabbing a bite to eat before heading over to this Goth store Hayato thought looked pretty interesting.

"How about this, Juudaime?"

Tsuna looked up to see Hayato holding up a zipper less orange hoodie. What made it interesting was the black skull and crossbones with an orange twenty-seven carved into the forehead that decorated the middle of the hoodie.

Thing is… I think mom and Haru would enjoy seeing me in stuff like this.

Tsuna never really cared what he wore, so long as it was comfortable, but he liked the hoodie. It was interesting and not overly dramatic.

"I like it." Tsuna told Hayato with a smile, but decided to continue before the bomber got too excited. "Let's keep looking; we still have an hour until "The Hunger Games" starts.

Tsuna got the hoodie Hayato showed him, a navy blue t-shirt that had an evil looking purple pumpkin on it, two black laptop cases, one with a white "^-^" symbol and the other with a white fox, and a red t-shirt with a graveyard on it and "shinigami" printed underneath in black lettering. He also got some stuff for the kids and Nana, because he thought they might like it. He got a purple hoodie that had a robot like teddy bear on it for Nana, a light blue t-shirt styled dress with a punk rocker looking bunny on it for I-Pin, a black messenger bag with a white skull cupcake design that said "despair cupcakes" for Fuuta, and a grey t-shirt with white long sleeves that had a ninja fox carrying a box of pocky and "pocky ninja" written in white for Lambo.

Hayato ended up getting a grey t-shirt that said "bite me" in white print, a black long sleeved shirt with "I lose control" in red lettering, and red hoodie that matched Tsuna's, only the number on the forehead was 59.

"That was great Juudaime." Gokudera said with a happy smile as they left the store, Hayato carrying the bags (he insisted, no matter how many times Tsuna tried to say no). "Maybe…" Hayato blushed. "Maybe we… could do this again?"

"Sure." Tsuna gave Hayato a reassuring smile. "Maybe we should invite some of the other Guardian's or the kids next time."

Hayato looked a little disappointed, but Tsuna wasn't going to take it back. Hayato had to get to know the other's better if he was ever going to be a full part of the family Tsuna had been working on.

Tsuna looked at his watch and gasped.

"Oh! The movie starts in twenty minutes, Hayato! We should get to the theater if we want good seats."

With that the two headed to the theater in companionable silence… until the roof next to the theater blew up and two figures went flying by.

"What…" Tsuna started.

"The…" Hayato followed.

"Fuck!" They finished together.

Tsuna watched in horror as he realized who the two figures were.

One appeared to be in his mid twenties and had long silver hair that hung loosely, gracefully framing an attractive face, grey eyes, and a shark like smile. Superbi Squalo of the Varia.

The other was much younger, about the same age as Tsuna, and had short blonde hair that fell over his face and almost covered his right eye. The other eye was reveled to be a deep blue, set on a cute face that was twisted into a scowl. The blue dying will flame on his forehead confirmed the boy to be Basil of the CEDEF. Tsuna only cursed his luck more when he realized Basil was holding a box with the Vongola crest on it.

The Vongola half-rings! Tsuna saw Hayato put the bags down out of the corner of his eye; Hayato's gaze was also fixed on the Vongola symbol. So he noticed it to.

"Hayato."

Hayato had just started pulling out his dynamite when Tsuna's voice stopped him.

"Yes, Juudaime?"

"I'll handle this."

"But Juu-"

"Hayato!" Hayato stopped. "I don't know if you're ready for an opponent of his caliber yet. I want you to just watch, alright."

Hayato looked at his boss in surprise. From the sound of it he was going to get a demonstration of Juudaime's true power.

"If that is your order, Boss." Hayato complied and backed down.

During the conversation, Squalo had managed to knock down Basil and was making a grab for the box, but was stopped when a black and silver gloved hand grabbed his wrist.

Squalo jerked back in surprise, only to see a pair of glowing orange eyes and an orange dying will flame on a young boy's forehead. A quick glance back at the gloves told him all he needed to know and he grinned.

"Voi! So you're the trash that's trying to take the position of Vongola Decimo!"

Tsuna ignored the loud man and bent down to check Basil and the box. As he suspected, Basil was just unconscious with minor injuries.

"VOI!"

Tsuna turned back to the noisy swords man and jumped into the air to keep from being impaled, landing on the raised side of the blade. The move stunned Squalo enough for Tsuna to land a decent round house kick in his face, sending Squalo flying, before Tsuna landed back in front of Basil and picked up the rings.

"You want these?" Tsuna said in an almost disturbingly blank voice.

Tsuna was completely calm, almost as if one of the best assassins in the world wasn't threatening him.

"Voi! What do you think brat!"

"Here." Tsuna casually tossed the swordsman the box. "I don't want them."

Tsuna shot Hayato a look, to prevent the rash boy from saying anything.

"Voi…" Squalo was confused at the sudden turn of events, but he wasn't about to look a gift horse in the mouth. "I guess you really are just a normal kid."

With that he was gone.

"Juudaime…?"

"Don't worry." The dying will flame burned out and he returned to his normal state. "The rings he took were fakes."

"Fakes!"

"That's right."

Tsuna and Hayato jumped at the new voice. They turned to see a handsome blonde man wearing a fur lined jacket walking toward them.

"Who are you?"

After what just happened, Hayato wasn't taking any chances.

"Relax." The blonde raised his hands in surrender. "My name is Dino, Dino Cavallone."

(A.N. So how's that. I know some people may be mad I'm at this now, but I had every intention from the beginning of the story to introduce Shamal and Dino, officially, after I brought in Squalo. I only sped things up a little bit, in cannon Reborn's with Tsuna for about two or three months before Squalo shows up. Oh, if anyone's interested in that stuff from earlier, everything but Tsuna and Gokudera's special number hoodies are available in various colors on , that place is amazing and it has more than just gothic type stuff. Anyway, the drama continues next time, ja ne.)
