A/N: I'm far from being done with this fanfiction.
Last time on Tsuna Sawada, the Super Duper High School Mafia Boss:
I sat on my bed as I fold everything. This is the first time in a long time that I had some time to myself. I haven't given the identity of mastermind a lot of thought. I guess I could give that some thought. I know they have to be alive in order for Monokuma to be working, but I don't want the mastermind to be anyone here. Then, that leaves, someone I haven't met yet, but that doesn't leave me with a lot of people. Maybe Alter Ego's right. It could be the headmaster, but it doesn't make add up. We're the 78th class. Why not use the 77th or 76th? The only other person left is Junko Enoshima. I mean Yamada mentioned her before he died, and Ikusaba dressed up as her. Could it be a coincidence? But what would she gain from all of this? Besides, she's just a model. How can she pull any of this off? Man, I feel stupid. I actually believed a model could do all of this. I guess I haven't grown out of my Dame-Tsuna phase yet.
Huh?" I went over to the door to see who was behind it. I saw Chrome awkwardly standing with an iron grip on her trident. "Yes, Chrome?"
"Boss, it's time for your training session." My mist guardian said. "Are you ready?"
"Just let me put my clothes away." I pointed at the pile of folded clothes before I rushed back to my bed. I somewhat neatly put everything away. Once that was done, I closed the door behind myself. Chrome led the way to wherever we supposed to go, probably the gym. "So Chrome, how are you? We haven't had a lot of time alone, so I don't know what you've been up to."
"Um...I've gotten really close to Asahina and Sakura, and I was thinking about talking to Fukawa a bit more." Chrome summed up. "I enjoyed working with her yesterday."
"But she insulted you to your face." I pointed out the most obvious reason for her not to go through the trouble.
"I'm used to the insults," You shouldn't use to that. "and I think Fukawa deserves a friend."
"I can't argue with that. I think you got a chance to do it."
"Thank you."
"Oh yeah, how are things with Mukuro?"
"Huh...oh I don't know where she went after the meeting. She could be anywhere."
"Wrong Mukuro..."
"Oh...OH! I'm sorry. It's been a long time since I last thought about him." Holy crap, Chrome was serious about moving on. "We're here, boss. Reborn wants us to start right away, so you should prepare yourself."
I hesitated before nodding. I grabbed a pill out of my bottle and popped in my mouth. I felt the usual calming sensation wash over my body as I put my X-gloves on. With extreme caution, I opened the gym door. I looked around the empty gym. Nothing's here, but I feel something familiar. Wait Chrome!
"Surprise motherfucker!" I heard the voice come the left, so I instantly shifted to the right. I watched as Mondo faded into visibility. He was holding a two-headed sledgehammer in his hands. I saw a large hole in the floor where I was previously standing.
"What is going on?" I put more distance between me and Mondo.
"Reborn wanted us to spar. It's supposed to be Mondo and me versus you." Chrome prepared herself for the fight.
"Yeah and look at what Chrome whipped up," Mondo marveled at Chrome's creation "It feels so real."
"How long are we supposed to do this?" I prepared myself for the worst possible answer.
"We ain't telling!" Mondo charged at me with all his might.
He randomly swung the sledgehammer around, not caring how many dents he left behind. I manage to dodge them, but it getting harder with each second. Mondo was just becoming more and more careless. I got a few nicks and scrapes on my face and shirt. I did, however, prevent Mondo from hitting any major arteries, so that was a small win for me. But, I couldn't find an opening, nor did I have time to pull out Nat-su. Basically, I'm doing this thing alone. Great. Mondo was acting like a pro with that sledgehammer. The biker was swinging it above his head, to the left and right of himself, and handling it with so much ease and comfort. Mondo slowly forced me against the bleachers. Chrome came up behind and created vines to attack me from the sides.
My only option was to fly up. With a new view, I had one of two options. I can attack Mondo and disarm him, or I attack Chrome and disarm her. I nosedived towards Mondo. The gang leader tried blocking with one of the heads on his sledgehammer, but I still punched it with my right hand covered in Sky flames. I caused Mondo to sink an inch or two in the ground. I lost my momentum after a while, and I was forced off.
Chrome didn't waste any time with her second attack. As soon as I touched the ground, she slammed her trident against the floor to create five ice pillars. One bigger than the last. I had no other choice but to jump backward as more pillars were created. Mondo used them as stepping stone as a way to get above me.
Mondo jumped off the highest one with the hammer-twirling above his head. In midair, the gang leader swung it down to speed up his plummeting body. I jumped a second before he made the impact, so Mondo couldn't change his trajectory. The attack was strong enough to create a dust cloud that filled the gymnasium The dust and debris did block my eyesight for a while, so I relied on my Hyper Dying Will to detect Chrome and Mondo.
Come on...where are you two? I figured that it would be harder to find Chrome since she didn't have illusions for organs anymore. I still don't know how that's possible; I'll figure that out later. I tried sensing the sledgehammer, but nothing stood out to me. There goes my only lead, great. I guess I'll get rid of the dust cloud for now. I made a beeline for the door, well I hoped I was going the right way. I stopped moving when I touched the wall. I started moving against the wall until I knew at the door. Sooner or lat-
"Gah!" Something slammed against my back hard and forced me to hit my face against the bleachers or wall; it's all the same right now.
I elbowed whatever was behind me, but I hit the dust in the air. Huh? Was that Mondo? It felt like a body- The next thing I knew was that I hit in the back of my right leg and forced to get on one knee. I have to even the odds. I need to clear this cloud. I ignored the shots to my body and kept moving. Every once in awhile, Mondo, I guess, would hit either my arm or leg. It felt like an eternity finally ended when I pushed the gym's doors open. Thank goodness...wait, nothing's happening. Why?!
"This doesn't make sense." I mumbled to myself. The dust should be gone by now unless- "It's all an illusion. It's all an illusion!"
"Took you long enough." The dust breezed past me and to the center of the room where Chrome and Mondo were standing until it was completely dispelled.
"That's why I couldn't sense Mondo's sledgehammer. The dust cloud was a cover up!"
"Very good observation, boss."
"Now," Mondo cracked his knuckles. "take those gloves off. We're doing this like real men, hand to hand combat."
I nodded and slipped my gloves off my hand. I handed them off to Chrome before I put a decent distance between me. My mist guardian stood in between us and counted down from ten.
"...ten...nine...eight...seven...six," I narrowed my eyes as Mondo put more of his weight on his legs. "...five...four...three...two," I curled my hands into fists. "ONE! Go!"
We didn't waste any time. Mondo charged at me with the intention to win. I dodge the punch he threw at my face by ducking, and I retaliated by sending a punch to his stomach. I don't know how, but Mondo blocked it with his knee. He elbowed my exposed back with a tremendous amount of force. He smashed my body against the hard gym floor.
"Come on, get up. We're not done." Mondo taunted. "And we ain't done until I say we done."
I got back on my feet and tried again to hit Mondo. I threw a punch at his face, but he leaned to the side, and the punch just whistled in the air. He grabbed my arm just to slam me against the floor again.
I groaned as I got up for the third time. I jabbed at him, but he just sidestepped with his hands in his pocket as if this was a game. The gang leader got behind me; because of pure instinct, I kicked, well tried, Mondo. Instead, I felt something holding my leg. Oh, fuck... Mondo had a victorious smile on his face as he held both my leg with both his hands.
"Oh goddamnit."
"You know what's gonna happen, right?"
"Do we have to do it?"
Yes! MONDO SMASH!"
"Wait wh- Gah!" He didn't even feel bad about slamming my face against the floor. I was about to get back up, but felt my body get lifted up by my leg. "What ar-"
Mondo lifted me up and over his head just to slam my back against the floor on the other side of himself. He repeated this about 6 or 7 times before he actually let go of my leg.
"You're having way too much fun with this, Mondo." I spit on the floor while I got back on my feet.
"Sorry man, I say it in a movie and thought I try it out." He laughed the whole thing off.
"I got you Mondo." I jumped at him, but he ducked. I grabbed the hair on the back of his head which forced me to land, but Mondo, on the other hand, launched across the gym and hit his face against the bleachers. "Come on Mondo. Get up." I brought my hand up and got in my fighting stance.
"Hell yeah, let's finish this you bastard!"
He dashed at me, and I did the same. Mondo threw the first punch again, but caught in my hand. I tried to clock him on the right part of his jaw; however, Mondo anticipated it and caught my hand. He brought it next to our hands.
"So this is a battle of strength now?" I struggled to talk without losing focus.
"Yep, whoever's on their knees first loses!" Mondo's grin told me that he was enjoying this with all his heart.
Mondo had the advantage because, well, he's hella tall, so I had to find a way to make it his disadvantage. We spend god knows how long struggling to outdo the other. Think Tsuna, what can you do? Hm...I got it! I locked my arms against my sides which made Mondo stumble a bit. Gotcha! I moved my forearm downward which pushed Mondo down also. I used the rest of my strength to get him on his knees.
"Boss is the winner! The fight's over." Chrome announced as she handed over my gloves.
"Is there anything else I have to do Chrome, or are we done?" I slumped against the closest thing to me and turned off my Hyper Dying Will.
"That's all I have for today; I have to meet up with Asahina. She's waiting for me." Chrome bowed right before rushing out the gym. I tried to caught my breath, but I got distracted by a shadow covering me, Mondo's shadow's.
"Come on. It's time to hit the showers." Mondo explained with his hand out.
Do you want to spend time with Mondo Oowada, SDHS Outlaw Biker?
Yes/No
Mondo: Come on dude. We're going to the bathhouse.
Tsuna: Give me a sec. I need to catch my breath.
That fight was kinda hard. I didn't expect to use that much of my energy. I picked myself up with some help from Mondo. I followed him out the heavily damaged gym.
Mondo: That was one hell of a fight. You should join my gang if the Mafia doesn't work.
Tsuna: I'm trying to stay out of Anything illegal.
Mondo: Why? It's the best kind of fun. You get to do whatever and not give a damn.
Tsuna: My life hasn't been normal since I met Reborn.
Mondo: But it's been a lot of fun hasn't it.
Tsuna: I don't know how many times I almost died, I enjoyed some of it.
Mondo: See man, you get use to it.
Is that really a good thing?
Mondo: You know what I really to do before we leave.
Tsuna: What?
Mondo: I wanna try that Dying Will shit.
Tsuna: Dying Will?...You don't.
Mondo: Why not? You're a complete bad ass when you got that flame.
Tsuna: It's a pain in the butt to deal with afterward.
Mondo: You make it look easy.
Tsuna: Plus, there's this thing where you might die if you don't have a regret or strong resolve.
Mondo: What the hell! What kind of bullshit is that!?
Tsuna: I'm glad he stopped using that bullet; I was running out of clothes.
Mondo: Dafuq?
I chuckled at Mondo's confusion. I thought it was sorta funny how he confused Hyper Dying Will with Dying Will, but it was an honest mistake. Mondo and I finally made it across the school to the bathhouse. Luckily, none of the girls seem to be in here, so we started undressing. I really didn't think Mondo was the type who talked while changing, so I decided to keep quiet until we were in the bath. Once I locked our clothes away and had a towel around my waist; I waited for Mondo.
I noticed how well sculpted Mondo's body was. His biceps and triceps were pulsating to beat of his heart. His pecs and abs were so well defined compared to mine.
Mondo: You're gay.
I blinked a couple of times in confusion.
Tsuna: What?
Mondo: You're gay, dude.
Tsuna: No, I'm not. I'm straight.
Mondo: I just saw you staring at my chest. At least own up to it like Leon.
Tsuna: I was thinking about how did you get so buff.
Mondo: Oh, my brother and some of the gang that could tolerate me put me through this hard ass training to toughen me up.
Tsuna: I guess they didn't like you playing the piano.
I chuckled at the end while I started making my way to the middle section. I slid into one and left the other one for the gang leader. I hung my towel on the side of the hot tub; Mondo left his towel on his shoulder and got in the tub.
Mondo: What were we talking 'bout? Oh yeah, they were so pissed about that shit.
Tsuna: That makes sense. You're a part of their gang.
Mondo: Nah, wasn't that. I made them look bad. A kid knowing how to play something like the piano, and they're just terrorizing people. It's enough to hurt any man's pride.
Tsuna: Oh yeah, why did you stop playing? Celeste made it seem like you played like a pro.
Mondo: The gang attacked my teach's house, and she disappeared after that.
Tsuna: S-So they killed her?
Mondo: Probably, I don't know what happened. No one would tell me. All I know is after that, everyone but two people hated my ass.
Tsuna: Your brother Daiya and who?
Mondo: Oh yeah, I never told you about Takemichi Yukimaru.
Tsuna: Takemichi? Is he a part of your bike gang right?
Mondo: Yeah, Takemichi was my only childhood friend. You can guess why I didn't have a lot.
Tsuna: What was he like?
Mondo: He was as stubborn and proud as Ishimaru, about your size and figure, and he had this bad ass fighting spirit. Not to forget, Takemichi had a way with the chicks.
Tsuna: Did he date any of them? Better yet, how many did he date?
Mondo: None.
Tsuna: What?
Mondo: Total fag.
Tsuna: Kinda ironic isn't it? He's gay and got a lot of girls.
Mondo: Yeah, he's an amazing guy. 'Michi even got his entire life planned; he's gonna be a Marine.
Tsuna: Like the army type of Marine?
Mondo: Takemichi might be stubborn, but he loves helping people. Sometimes...sometimes it feels like he's doing better than me in life.
Tsuna: Come on Mondo. That can't be right.
Mondo: It is. 'Michi's better than me. I don't even know what I'm gonna do after all this. I can't be the Crazy Diamond's leader forever.
Mondo slumped against the side of the tub as his face got more depressing by the second.
Tsuna: I'm sure you can find a job...somewhere. It's just gonna take some time.
Mondo: I'm not like y'all. Everyone here got a perfect job for them. Chihiro's a famous programmer. Asahina can be an Olympic swimmer; you and Chrome got the mafia. Leon has his baseball career. Even fucking Togami is set.
Tsuna: Mondo are you listening to yourself? You really think there's no career for you? Look at yourself, you have the perfect body. There're so many things you can do Mondo. You can be an international bodyguard, a workout coach, a National Guard. The possibilities are endless.
The gang leader lifted his head from the tub with a burning resolve present in his eyes.
Mondo: Thanks, man, I needed that.
He reached over and patted me on the back.
Tsuna: Come on, let's head out. We're done here.
Friendship bond reached level 4!
Tsunayoshi Sawada and Mondo Oowada's friendship reached level 4!
I grabbed my towel off the tub and wrapped it around my waist. I followed Mondo out to the lockers.
"Is that really a good idea?" I heard Chihiro's voice. "What if Monokuma catches you?"
