If there was one thing that Hibari Kyoya hated more then crowding and herbivores combined, it was being told what to do. Even worse, being told what to do by his father, because when that old man told him what to do it wasn't a request it was an order, and Hibari Kyoya hated being ordered around, especially when the old fart was treating him like a herbivore.

Kyo, you're not allowed to go near that mansion, I don't care how loud they are or if the disturb the peace of Namimori, you are not to go near the people that live there or interfere with them in any way.

His father really didn't know him at all, it was the best way to convince him to take some time out of his important nap or 'discipline the masses' time to go investigate this mansion that was apparently above the law of the Hibari family and allowed to run amok as they wished.

The thought of a group of herbivores gathering and being allowed to do what they wished in his Namimori grated on him the whole way to the mansion. He didn't care who lived in this place, they were going to feel the sting of his tonfa and learn the laws of Namimori.

So to say that seeing four children playing hide and seek in the garden was the furthest thing from what he had expected was very true. His steely eyes narrowing as he glared at the four children, he recognised one of them, the subject of intense bullying regardless of his discipline to the crowing bullies, a little girl that was the most herbivorous of herbivores that attended the elementary school.

Kyoya had heard whispers from some of the staff that there were strange foreigners that picked her up after school, but they had been somewhat quiet on the matter when asked about it.

It was after he had inquired about the foreigners that his father had ordered him to stay away from this mansion, so the foreigners were the dangerous ones? The children with the girl hardly seemed a challenge, completely unworthy of his time. So there had to be others here that were more worthy of feeling the sting of his tonfa.

So if the kid's weren't the challenge, there had to be some adults around, Kyoya did so enjoy putting adults in their place on the food chain, there were only a few people he had ever acknowledged as Carnivores, and he doubted there was anyone here that could live up to that title.

Kyoya decided to wait and watch, he was good at waiting, especially if it led to a good fight, he had been getting bored with the local yakuza and delinquents, so instead he waited, watching the four children play their childish herbivore games.

His patience paid off when half an hour later a tall foreign teen emerged from the house, Kyoya's eyes locked onto the tall dark haired teen, now this was more what he was talking about, the way the teen stood, his posture, his aura, it reeked of confidence and danger. Kyoya even let a shiver of excitement slip down his back as he charged out of the bushes and straight at the teen.

Xanxus was annoyed, here he had been having a nice calm afternoon, Tsuna forgetting about everything in the midst of playing games with the other three brats he had brought home. Xanxus had been sitting and sipping at some tea with Squalo, the latter doing Xanxus' paperwork as his boss had just thrown the back in his face when he tried to give them to him, watching Tsuna play with the other three children. It hadn't been long when his hackles went up, someone was in his territory, and they were watching his brat.

Xanxus flicked his eyes around the yard to see a small child, probably a little older then his brat, maybe about the same age as the Mukurou brat, staring at his brat. Xanxus narrowed his gaze and studied the child, he was a fighter that much was clear, the brat even had a passable stance on him, two tonfa tight in his grasp while the kid watched Tsuna and company playing and running around.

Xanxus didn't go after the intruder immediately, first he watched, waited to see if he was here after his brat, or for some other reason. The kid didn't move, even as the time ticked on he just stayed in his bushes watching, waiting. Snorting in amusement Xanxus stood from his chair with a stretch, it was clear the brat was here for a fight, might as well remind this little brat that his territory was out of bounds for anyone not approved by him.

Stepping outside he checked on Tsuna and the other brats to make sure they were out of the way for now, he knew better then to underestimate an opponent based solely on their age, Belphegor was a good example of a child being just as deadly as any other assassin. Flicking his eyes over to the brat he smirked when the child darted out of the bushes without hesitation and came directly for him.

Xanxus heard Squalo sigh at him from inside while Xanxus caught the brats tonfa and twisted it from the kid and kicked him away

"Go home brat." Xanxus ordered while the child glowered at him and came running at him again, Xanxus slid to one side and caught the other tonfa and twisted that free as well, kicked the brat back again and tossing his tonfa after him "Go home brat." the child was nothing if not stubborn and grabbed up his tonfa again and ran at Xanxus.

"H-H-Hibari-san." Tsuna squeaked in surprise looking at the child that was attacking Xanxus. Tsuna had heard all about this terrifying child, everyone in school knew that if you didn't behave Hibari Kyoya would find you and make you pay.

Xanxus frowned slightly looking over at Tsuna, so she knew who this was, did that make him one of her bullies? "Brat, this brat ever bully you?" Xanxus growled while Tsuna shook her head furiously from her place hidden behind Mukurou, she had ducked for cover as soon as the fight had started. Tsuna had never even been close to Hibari, she had seen him from afar as he beat up some delinquents one day in town with her mother, but he had never bullied her directly, in fact if anything he had saved her once of twice, her well known abusers having been in hospital once or twice instead of at school where they could bully her.

Xanxus studied the child again while he fended off another attack, he had decent form, but the kid was too single minded, attacking with everything he had from the front while leaving himself wide open to attack, at least it seemed that way to him.

For someone that had probably only had the civilian locals to play with until now he was probably far too advanced for their scuffles, with some training the brat would make a decent assassin.

Xanxus smirked softly while he tossed the kid aside again, he might be able to help the kid along that path a little, and all he had to do was play with the kid whenever he wanted.

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

Tsuna sighed while Xanxus and Kyoya fought in the garden of the mansion, at first she had found it scary, the fighting, but now it was so normal she barely noticed anymore, Kyoya stalked Xanxus regularly and could pounce out and attack him anytime he thought there was an opening, Xanxus seemed to find it amusing so the other Varia ignored the fact that there was a child attempting to kill their boss on a regular basis.

Mukurou found the child amusing, especially when he was exhausted after fighting Xanxus, his reactions to the commentary that the illusionist was happy to provide made for something fun, Mukurou was learning Japanese a little faster now he had a good reason to use it, the reaction were hilarious when he poked at the bruised ego of the fighter, in fact the two had broken out into scuffles more then once. Mammon wasn't happy with Mukurou learning how to fight, it went against the norm of the illusionist trade, but Mukurou seemed to enjoy the fights, though he more often then not either drew even or Xanxus had to pull them apart.

Squalo of course commenting to Xanxus about how he was collecting more and more children, the Varia boss only glowering at his second in command while whatever drink he had in his hand dripped from the silver haired teens hair in response.

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

The Vongola head stayed for one week, in that time Tsuna spent all her time in hte mansion, Mammon providing an illusion of her at school and home while she stayed close to the support system the Vongola had set up for her, Nono did eventually have to go back to Italy but he left his Rain temporarily on assignment in Japan to take care of Tsuna as a counsellor.

Nono would have preferred to also leave his Mist behind to save him some money on Mammon's training, the Arcobaleno was going to drive the whole Vongola to bankruptcy before the child was even ten. However he needed his Mist with him, so instead Mammon was left in charge of Mukurou's training.

Lussuria took on the language lessons with the children, Tsuna attending the afternoon lessons with them, they were teaching her Italian while they taught the other three children Japanese.

Chikusa picked up Japanese the fastest, the quiet child had a high IQ as they had found out in their initial testing to assess where the three were at with learning so they knew where to start.

Though it seemed he had no memories of a home before the Estraneo he had picked up quite a lot from listening to the scientists.

Ken was the slowest, he got bored easily and ended up being sent outside to run off some of his energy. Otherwise he just sat there fidgeting and bouncing in his seat full of energy that had no outlet.

Mukurou, while not having picked up Japanese quite as fast as Chikusa, a fact that had annoyed the child for a few days, was picking up Mammon's teachings at a rapid rate, Lussuria had tried to comfort him in the fact that he was learning both Illusions, Mist Flames and Japanese all at once while Chikusa was only learning Flames and Japanese, it was natural that he be a little behind Chikusa. Mukurou hadn't really taken comfort in that, he didn't like being behind anyone. He could take some comfort in the fact that Ken was still behind him, if the dog started getting ahead of him he would have to kill the child to save him from the shame.

Tsuna had started picking up more Italian, it helped that the other three children spoke almost only Italian in the first few days and Xanxus had kept up a running translation of what they were discussing, it had helped her pick up words, though her sentence structure and grammar was terrible. Tsuna had thrown herself into her Flame training, Kanji lessons and Italian lessons that first few weeks, she had avoided red and talk of blood or what had happened when she had been taken by Ottabio. While it meant there was progress on the side of her schooling, Xanxus kept a close eye on her regardless, every few days she had a one on one session with Schnitten to try and help her talk through what had happened.

While everyone had been busy teaching the children Levi had taken it upon himself to clean house, anyone that was loyal to Ottabio or was a possible leak of information about their location and their small Sky, had to be dealt with to ensure that this didn't happen again. Levi also upgraded the mansion security and organised some security at the elementary school so that they would know exactly who picked up Tsuna if she ever disappeared from school without them.

Belphegor made himself scarce for a few days so that he could avoid the Vongola head, Iemitsu and Xanxus, all of whom were not exactly happy with him. Instead he stalked Tsuna around the mansion leaving small presents for her in apology for his mistake.

A knife (that Xanxus confiscated) sweets (he had stolen from Lussuria) and one of his older game consoles with some games (That had also been confiscated since the games were all bloody). It was awkward and clumsy, but the prince was apologising in his own way, not that a prince would ever apologise to a commoner, but Tsuna was the Varia's principessa, and not some normal commoner.

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

It was half a month after the Vongola left that Tsuna went back to school, not that the school had noticed any absence, Tsuna had been sleeping back in the house with Nana for a week now and the nightmares had slowly started to die down, Xanxus was staying in the spare room for the moment in case Tsuna had another nightmare. The first night Tsuna had woken with her nightmares Xanxus had explained to Nana that Belphegor had let her watch a horror movie, that calmed the housewife while Xanxus and her worked on getting Tsuna back to sleep, Tsuna only sleeping once she was cuddled into her mother in her bed.

But over the week that had calmed down as well, Tsuna had been mostly nightmare free before they had let her go home, the change in surroundings had upset her sleep again and the nightmares had returned, however they were nothing compared to what they had been in the beginning.

So finally after a week of Xanxus and the three brats that followed him every time he went to pick up Tsuna, had taken her back to the mansion for the day while an illusion went to school.

Tsuna couldn't help but fiddle with the hem of her shirt nervously while peeking at the child in front of the classroom, what would happen when he saw how stupid she was at school?

"Calm down everyone." Tsuna ducked her head so that the teacher didn't see her, they may have eased off on picking her out in class, but that didn't stop them from sneering at her. "We have a new student starting with us today, they're from Italy, so please, be nice everyone." Tsuna smiled brightly when Chikusa stepped in, she was nervous and excited that one of her friends was going to be at school with her, Xanxus said Ken and Mukurou couldn't come until they learnt Japanese better. Mukurou was really annoyed that Chikusa had better Japanese then him, but he was so busy being trained in Flames and Illusions he hadn't spent as much time studying the language.

Ken had a tantrum when he found out that Chikusa was going to school and he wasn't, Tsuna thought they were weird, being excited about going to school. It was nice to have a friend at school finally, everyone avoided her ever since Xanxus talked to the adults. Some of them still bullied her, but it was nothing compared to before, they didn't yell at her anymore, but they did keep messing up her locker, her books and her desk.

Tsuna never saw anyone do it, but it happened still.

Tsuna just hoped they didn't bully Chikusa for being her friend….unless he pretended not to know her at school, that had happened before when she had her first friend before starting school. As soon as she was bullied at school they joined right in with the bullies.

"Now, introduce yourself."

"Chikusa." he noted softly his blue eyes flicking around at everyone before he bowed slightly and stood there silently, the teacher clearly wanting more of an introduction, the room was silent for a few moments before the teacher got the hint that Chikusa wasn't saying anything else.

"W-Well, please, take the seat towards the back there." Chikusa silently moved to the indicated desk, assessing the class and the students while he tried to suss out who exactly was bullying Tsuna. Xanxus had given him the mission of finding out who was still harassing the small Sky and ensuring it stop.

As soon as break hit the students flocked to him to talk to the new student, especially a foreigner, babbling a mile a minute at him while Chikusa sat stiff in his chair, he hated people getting close to him, or touching him. Tsuna was the one that came to his rescue actually, startling more then a few students when the small shy child spoke up behind them,

"S-Stop." Tsuna whispered "Chikusa-kun doesn't...doesn't like people touching him."

"Go away dame-Tsuna, you don't know anything." Chikusa stood suddenly and reached out to Tsuna tugging her back towards him before she could go hide

"Let's get one thing straight, if anyone is mean to Tsuna, then I'll kill them." the children all froze hearing the word kill, Chikusa glancing at Tsuna in realisation of what he had said, she was hugging herself and had her eyes clenched shut. "You're all disgusting excuses for human beings." Chikusa reached over and tugged Tsuna with him and left the room, tugging her down the hall, the girl blinking from her daze to tilt her head in confusion at him.

"Ch-Chikusa-kun….do...do you know where you're going?"

"No." Chikusa noted "They make me mad." Chikusa admitted coming to a stop and looking back at her with a frown "Why do you let them treat you like that?"

"Tsuna….they only get scarier if Tsuna says something." Tsuna whispered "Nii-san gets mad if he finds out….so Tsuna doesn't tell him. Tsuna doesn't want to make Nii-san mad."

"He'd get mad if he found out you were still being bullied and not telling him." Tsuna wilted staring at her feet,

"T-Tsuna's sorry." Chikusa sighed studying the small girl, really, she was asking to be bullied looking all vulnerable like that, she was nothing like the kids from the facility, she still smiled, somehow, and somehow she managed to make even him care, and Chikusa and Mukurou had always been the best at not getting attached.

One pout from this kid and he was feeling. Chikusa had thought they had taken that from him, he hadn't felt anything for anyone other then Ken and Mukurou in so long that he had been sure they had destroyed his emotions. But seeing Tsuna standing there trying to help him, seeing the pain in her huge brown eyes when her classmates dismissed her, that had made him angry. Chikusa never got angry anymore.

Or so he had thought.

"I'm telling Xanxus about the bullying." Tsuna pouted at him, Chikusa refusing to look at her, he knew he'd cave if he did. "He will find out one way or another Tsuna, from me or Mukurou and Ken when they start." Tsuna wilted again scuffing her shoe on the floor,

"But….he'll get mad." Tsuna mumbled "Tsuna likes it when nii-san smiles." Chikusa petted her head gently, still avoiding looking into her eyes,

"Still going to tell him...Or Mukurou-sama will when he starts attending." Tsuna made a soft noise but nodded finally, Chikusa was right, if he didn't tell Xanxus now then he would only get more mad when he did find out from Ken or Mukurou. Ken being a loudmouth, the whole mansion would know as soon as he got home from his first day.

"Okay." Tsuna mumbled quietly while Chikusa petted her head gently his eyes flicking around as a bell sang out the end of break,

"Let's go back now." Chikusa noted while Tsuna trotted after the taller child, blinking in confusion as he turned a corner,

"Chikusa-kun, class is that way." Tsuna tugged at his sleeve while the child looked down the other hall with a frown, pink heat touching his cheeks in embarrassment. He had memorised the layout of the mansion in one day, and here he was getting lost in a school only hours after starting.

Chikusa didn't say a work and just changed direction taking her back to class, frowning at the children in the room before taking his desk, the students all whispering about the rude child that had sided with dame-Tsuna. Chikusa didn't care if they all talked about him, it was water off a ducks back to him, as long as it was no longer directed at the small Sky.

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

Ken laid stretched out on the bed on his stomach while he flicked through a book he had gotten from Tsuna that she called a manga. He really liked the pictures and the two of them normally could be found pouring over one of the volumes trying to translate the kanji. The two had made some progress on memorising all the hirigana and katakana thanks to the books, so Xanxus had provided more for them to start working on their kanji as well.

"Ne, Mukurou-san." Ken called without taking his eyes off the book and the interesting fight that was being depicted, he liked this series "When we leave, can we take Tsuna with us?" Ken looked up finally to find Mukurou studying him with a frown, "...No?"

"If we take her with us then the Varia will come after us." Mukurou reminded while Ken pouted, his eyes flicking down to his manga again.

"But I like her. Please?" Chikusa flicked his eyes over to the young child with a frown, Ken never said please, he was serious about wanting to take Tsuna with them.

Mukurou shared a look with Chikusa, the other shrugging his shoulders, he was leaving it up to Mukurou.

"We told you not to get attached Ken, this is just going to complicate things when we leave." Ken pouted at Mukurou while throwing his book aside and burying his face into his pillow with a huff, so what if he got attached, they weren't in the Estraneo anymore, and Tsuna was nice. She had taught him how to play games, and they both trailed behind Mukurou and Chikusa in their school work, Tsuna being a complete ball of energy sometimes when she didn't do her exercises with Xanxus before lessons with Lussuria.

Ken liked having someone that understood how it felt to have all that energy bursting from the seams, and what it was like to look at those that learnt so much faster then them no matter how they tried.

"...If we leave." Chikusa noted softly looking over at Mukurou hesitantly "I would prefer we take Tsuna-hime with us." Mukurou had to think for a minute when Chikusa used the Japanese suffixes, since going through a list with Tsuna he had taken to using them for every ones names.

"Hime….principessa, Chikusa, you're not attached too are you?" Mukurou asked in shock, he had never thought that Chikusa would get attached again, not since a small child had been taken to experiment on and never returned, Chikusa was normally his rock, reliable and cold, never getting attached to anyone, for him to have also taken a liking to this girl was shocking.

"Tsuna-hime is….magnetic." Chikusa shrugged while setting aside his homework and looking evenly at Mukurou "I'm sorry, but I have grown….attached." Ken pulled his face from his pillow with a wide grin over at his cold blue haired friend,

"I know, right!" Mukurou rubbed at his temples with a sigh, while he had been planning their escape from the Varia, now it would seem he had to change their plans, for one he would need to convince Tsuna to come with them considering his two friends attachment to the small brown haired child, but also how to keep them under the Varia radar when they did leave, this was no longer some half trained brats that were going to go missing, but also the girl that all the Varia top brass had an attachment to.

"You bastards have made this much more difficult then needed." Mukurou sighed flopping back on his bed to think, he needed to plan this carefully to be able to even hope at getting away with them.

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

Mukurou had never been more happy, he was finally allowed to go to school, it had been bugging him to no end that Chikusa was allowed to go to the elementary school and he had been behind the blue haired brat, Mukurou liked to think he was smart, but having been told that Chikusa was supposedly more advanced in his learning then Mukurou, the child had taken it as a personal slight.

Now, after two weeks of listening to Chikusa give a brief update on the school he could finally attend the elementary school with them.

Especially now that he knew the black haired brat kept stalking Tsuna at school in preparation of Xanxus showing up to pick Tsuna up, and he did like fucking around with the black haired brat that was so far up his fundamental orifice that Mukurou found constant enjoyment in taunting and teasing him.

His reactions just made it so much fun. The kid took himself so seriously that his over the top arrogant reactions made Mukurou's day, that and seeing Tsuna, the kid that was quickly getting quite competent at holding her own, shrink in fear at the mere name of a child that was barely older then her, and that got his ass handed to his on a regular basis from her over protective assassin guardian, let alone that Mukurou could now hold his own against the brat.

Ken was really upset that he wasn't allowed at school yet, but Lussuria kept him busy at the mansion while the two kids trailed after Xanxus, the teen taking them to meet Tsuna and head to school.

"Nii-san." Tsuna cried running up to Xanxus and jumping into his arms for a hug, the teen holding her safely on his hip while he nodded to Nana in greeting, the house wife smiling at him sweetly from the doorway,

"Tsu-chan, don't forget to give Mukurou-kun and Chikusa-kun their lunch." Nana ordered while Tsuna nodded to her with a smile. Nana loved to cook, and was damn good at it as Xanxus had found out, so she often made the lunch for Chikusa as well as Tsuna, it would seem Tsuna told her mother that Mukurou was now added to the little group heading to the elementary school and made his lunch as well. "Have a great first day Mukurou-kun~" Nana smiled while the child nodded to her, he was always unsure how to act around Nana, she was affectionate and nice. He really had no idea how to act around a motherly figure, Tsuna he could deal with, but Nana just made him confused.

Xanxus saved Mukurou from further enforced interactions with the mother by nudging him and Chikusa to remind them to get moving, the two children bowing to Nana before following the tall teen that was carrying Tsuna.

Xanxus stepped to one side as a child with dark hair tried to attack him, the teen set Tsuna down between Chikusa and Mukurou, the warning clear, keep her safe while Xanxus played with the child.

"Take the brat to school." Xanxus ordered while Chikusa nodded in silence and began to lead Tsuna off, Mukurou not far behind, though he didn't leave without a condescending look back at Kyoya.

"Bye bye birdy~" Mukurou made a quick retreat when those furious dark grey eyes fell on him, normally he would stay and enjoy the moment, but he had his orders, take Tsuna to school.

Mammon had even given him a few little tricks for the few bullies that were still hanging on tenaciously. Chikusa had identified most of the ones that did the damage behind her back and he had a list of names and games to play with them. The Arcobaleno had an amusing sadistic streak when it came to people hurting her main source of income.

Mukurou was inclined to agree, he had learnt a lot in a short time of exactly how much control money gave you in the underworld, you can buy and sell lives with a few hundred thousand, and as an illusionist, money was something they made easily.

So to be harming the bright little Sky that made her close to a million in only a few months, well, that was not something she could forgive, and Mukurou agreed, he had been given a small camera to wear on him at school to capture video of the little girl in her everyday life to sell to those around her, Mukurou had been promised a percentage of that, so making her cry, bullying her, and hurting her was not allowed.

The names of her bullies, that would sell, but no one of the Varia would enjoy getting pictures of a hurt or crying Tsuna, the names behind such pictures yes, but none of the Varia wanted to see Tsuna cry. Mukurou really wanted to find a way to bottle her magnetism, to be able to sell the ability to draw in everyone around her, that would sell for millions. Tsuna's magnetism that had even drawn in Chikusa and Ken.

To bottle the ability to draw in the Varia, to make everyone love them, Tsuna's power went much further then just Sky Flames, her magnetism was ridiculous, the Varia, Xanxus, the Vongola Nono, Chikusa even, Chikusa never liked anyone anymore. Mukurou was going to keep a close eye on her from now on, if he could find a way to get his hands on that magnetism, he could take over the world, money and her cuteness, that could conquer the entire planet, both the underworld and the light side of the world.

Cuteness equalled total power and money.

Now to learn to bottle that cuteness.

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

It had been a few months now, Schnitten had finally decided Tsuna had recovered enough that she no longer needed him to stay in Japan, but he would come back once a month to check on her for a while, until then he recommended keeping Chikusa close to her to continue to influence her with the calming Rain Flames he possessed. Squalo had glared at him for being left out of that assessment, but the old man was right, he still didn't have a handle on his Flames in that way.

Squalo could use them for all sorts of things in fights, but calming upset children didn't seem to be in his repertoire.

Tsuna still had nightmares occasionally, but it was much better then what it had been before, and the bullies had all given up as well (Either because of hospitalisation or fear) and thanks to Mukurou, Mammon also had a heap of new content to sell.

It was only a few weeks after Schnitten left, Xanxus was finally relaxing as his brat was getting better and things were going back to normal, when a new arrival at the front of the mansion once again interrupted his calm and comfortable environment.

"What the fuck are you assholes doing here?" Xanxus growled glaring at all three of his brothers that had just turned up at his home,

"Well, since we know you're kinda tied down here for a while, we thought we'd bring the party to you~" Massimo smiled brightly at him while Xanxus' scowl deepened.

"Party? The fuck you talking about."

"Fathers birthday silly." Enrico reminded openly ignoring the way his littlest brother scowled deeper at that statement "We have a week to prepare~ So we'll be staying here for a little while." Xanxus' was outright glaring now "Hey, where's our most adorable little sister?" Xanxus couldn't take it anymore, he was trying so damn hard to be patient, but one of his asshole brothers calling Tsuna their sister, over his dead carcass would she be their fucking sister. Xanxus took a swing at Enrico, the other two Vongola children stepped back and just watched as their powerful little brother took on Enrico.

"We should film this for the old man." Federico noted while his brother giggled from his side, looking over the youngest of Nono's legitimate children grinned seeing that Massimo had already started recording the fight.

"Father does so love seeing us getting along."

"Fuck you all." Xanxus growled tossing them a glare before turning his attention back to his oldest brother, if he was distracted he would lose this, so the Varia commander blocked out the noise of his other brothers being assholes and got into the fight seriously.

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

Tsuna squeaked in surprise ducking behind Mukurou for protection as the three children came around the bend to see the mansion, smoke was rising from places and the entrance looked completely destroyed.

Mukurou reached back and took one of Tsuna's hands, Chikusa taking the other as they took defensive positions around the little Sky "Stay close Tsuna." Mukurou ordered while Tsuna nodded shifting closer into the protection the two were providing.

Mukurou began to walk slowly towards the mansion, keeping Tsuna behind him while his eyes darted around looking for danger, had someone come and killed the Varia? While that solved the problem of leaving with Tsuna it did mean that the little girl was going to cry, and that he didn't like either.

There was yelling coming up from ahead as they drew closer, Mukurou quickly pushed Tsuna and Chikusa behind some bushes and dived after them, peeking over at the mansion, whoever had come and destroyed all this was still there if the yelling was anything to go by.

"M-Mukurou-kun...Nii...Nii-san? Is nii-san okay?" God damn it she was about to cry, those tears welling up making her huge brown eyes even bigger, this was almost as effective as her cuteness, maybe there was link between cuteness and crying?

Shaking his head Mukurou pushed away those thought and shoved Tsuna down when he saw something flying at the bushes where they were hiding, Chikusa and him both covering the little girl while Mukurou began to weave an illusion round them so no one could see them.

"Ah!" Tsuna squeaked her eyes on the form of a young man in his early twenties "Curly!" Tsuna squeaked, it was one of Xanxus' brothers, the one that called himself Curly, she had never found out if that was his real name or not, but she remembered he had said it was Curly at Xanxus' party.

"Curly?" Mukurou asked in confusion while Tsuna nodded,

"Mmm, Curly is one of nii-san's brothers, he has three." Mukurou studied the grumbling young man as he pulled himself back up and glared back at the mansion, his eyes flicked over to the side a grin soon replacing his scowl,

"Tsu-chan~" he squealed grabbing her away from the glaring children and hugging her close "Aww, you're even cuter then last time, I'm never gonna let you go~"

"Enrico you bastard give my brat back!" Xanxus snarled from the rubble of the mansions entrance hall, his red eyes having found Tsuna being snuggled by his brother.

"Oh come on Xan~ She's too cute to keep all for yourself~"

"...These are the Vongola's heirs?" Mukurou mumbled over to Chikusa whom shrugged in confusion, he had expected someone a bit more...imposing, but this brother of Xanxus gave off the aura of a kitten, Xanxus seemed more dangerous then this guy.

"Oy, stop hogging her Enrico!" Massimo pouted out at his brother from the rubble "You're the one that said we got to share her!"

Xanxus growled and stormed over to his brother and tore Tsuna from his hold, ,glaring darkly at him "Brats, with me." Mukurou and Chikusa followed after him while his brother whined behind his back.

Xanxus led them into the mansion and set Tsuna down with the two of them "Go find Belphegor, stay with him until I get rid of these nuisances." Tsuna nodded slowly while Xanxus pinned Mukurou and Chikusa with a glare "Find the dog brat and go with her, keep those asshole away from her."

"Understood." Chikusa murmured while Mukurou nodded and took Tsuna's hand leading her down the hall, Xanxus turning his eyes back to the entryway and stalking after his brothers, like hell he was going to share his brat, and allow those assholes to stay in the mansion, and there was definately no way he was going to want Nono here anytime soon, let alone a birthday celebration.

Ok….There was a super long delay with this and everything else. I'm sorry about that, my computer went kaput and it took some time to get it working again, even then the bastard thing lost everything on my main harddrive, so I then spent a few days trying to rescue as much from the drive as I could. Thank frak for google drive having most of my work uploaded or I'd be back to square one. So, huge delay, again sorry about that, but finally there be more~

So I kept writing, even though my HDD fatal errors every 15 minutes *sobs* gonna take another week or so to get a new one.

Cielo Perduto is a week behind, sadly I didn't have my notes for CP on google drive, so I've been having to rewrite them, but I'm working on the story again now, so it should only be a few days behind. Im also away for the next week. I'ma try work in it on my tablet while I'm away.

Ona different note I was talked into doing a nightcore channel with my sister somehow. So been playing with youtube.

Sorry if I missed anyone, the template I had made up for this chapter was gone V_V, so I had to copy the names out of the review section again. But enormous thank you and thanks for the patience to everyone, and huge thanks to everyone that reviewed~

Wanderer13 : Vongola Style anything is a given to be awesome xD, a Mammon influenced and taught Mukurou is going to be more terrifying then anything he was in Canon, he has a master Illusionist teacher now, and all the knowledge of how money can control the world. The other Guardians will all turn up in time.
