Ch. 8- Let's Go Steal a Magician.

I was in the kitchen, making some coffee the next morning when I heard the chair scrape across the floor. Looking over my shoulder, it was Kiddo with a stern look on his face, his eyes a light shade of amber.

"Ohayo Kiddo." I greeted, him, getting the last of the sugar that I needed.

"We need to talk." He stated, looking right into my eyes.

Oooh, I'm in trouble!

"Hai, hai." I sat across from him, sipping on my coffee, staring right back. "If this is about last night, I meant every word. Just because you have Reborn at your back, making sure everything is alright or at least getting you through whatever middle-school crisis you have and actually acting like a father to you, doesn't mean you can forget about your Mother; or your friend's parents. What if they called the police?"

"Kaa-chan doesn't need to know about this! And Lambo-san, Fuuta-san and I-pin-san needs to kept out of this! They don't deserve the mafia life! Lambo is trying to kill Reborn on a daily basis, the mafia hunts Fuuta and they hurt his family! Fuuta ranked I-pin as the 3rd most promising assassin! They don't deserve the life that they have!"

"And I agree."

"B-b-but last night…." He came out of his Boss-mode, aww, was hoping he would stay in that mode for a while.

"They are young. They depend on us to protect them. It's up to them if they want the life that they want now, or a different life. But for the moment, it's like fighting a war."

"W-w-what do you mean?"

"A war will tear the land and bonds up apart like a broken jigsaw puzzle with a piece or two permanently missing. If you have a family, you'll do everything in your power to protect them. Even if it means leaving them for a while, but you do it knowing you are making a difference, so your precious ones won't have go through it. What if the younger ones want to do the same, to protect their precious ones? What's to stop them? They grew up looking up to you, knowing you went out there for them. You could have stayed home and done nothing, but you chose to go out and fight for them; to protect them. Ask yourself, what would be the best possible way to repay that sacrifice?"

Hm, almost out of coffee. To make another pot? Or to not make another pot, that is the question.

"I don't understand."

I smiled a somewhat bitter smile, thinking of my friends who chose to fight for us, for our country. "To each their own, Kiddo. What else is on your mind?" I asked, getting some breakfast ready, ha! Time to surprise Nana for a change!

Wonder if she'll like French toast?

"W-w-w-what are you talking about?"

"It's not just about the Squirts, is it?"

"I-I-I don't know w-w-w-what your talking about."

"Okay." I stated, getting breakfast ready for everybody. Making the French toast look awesome when I notice an afro poking in. "Lambo-kun! Come in and sit down, I'll get everybody else up for breakfast." Gesturing to the seat by Tsuna.

"Gah-hahahahaa! I'm the Great Lambo!" He said in his high-pitched voice. Oh no, it's the high-pitched voice that says he's going to be using the Bazooka later. Oh dear.

"Yes, I know. Now go sit down, before I make you." I said, looming over him. I smirked when he rushed to his seat by Tsuna. It was about 30 minutes later when we were eating when Reborn began stealing from Lambo's plate. Miraculously Gokudera and Yamamoto where here eating with us, both of them managing to come early enough for breakfast.

"M-M-Must not cry!" Lambo said, reaching into the afro to grab the bazooka. And before I could do anything about it, he let it slip, and poor unfortunate me was sitting right by him.

The next thing I knew is that I saw darkness, and then rainbows and a distinct flavor of cotton candy in my mouth. "I'm going to ground that little sucker and make him rake rocks!" I sputtered, cotton candy! Too much cotton candy! Eyes closed, don't want the nasty smoke in my eyes!

"Ann-ba-chan?" came a slightly familiar voice.

"No, I'm the goddamn tooth fairy."

"Hahahahaha! I haven't heard that in a while!" said another familiar voice.

"Tch. Stupid woman, trying to get her away. Again." Commented the third voice.

"Extreme! I still have to get you the videos you lent me!" yelled the extreme voice.

"Oya oya. What a pleasant surprise, haven't seen you in a while Odette. " Came the smooth voice. "Isn't that right, Chrome-chan?"

"Nee-chan!" said the only female voice.

"Carnivore." Stated the last voice.

"If I open my eyes, you're not going to be pointing weapons at me, are you?" I asked. Squinting my eyes just waiting for the okay. A hand fell to my shoulder and squeezed it gently.

Opening my eyes, I saw all of my minions! With food in their mouths or drinks near them; an evil idea came to me. "Well, aren't you guys just adorable? Has anyone tried eating you guys yet? With whip cream, or chocolate syrup; perhaps both? " I asked, waiting for the mayhem to come.

And did it, lots of food and liquid were choked or spitted out.

"Same old Ann!" said the older Yamamoto, wiping off the food the landed on his shirt, and then passing off the napkin that he used to the other people around him.

Wait, same old? As in he is familiar with it? Dude! I'm ten years into the future! Oh! Tsuna! I whipped my head around to try to find Tsuna, and I see him right next time his one hand still on my shoulder.

"K-Kiddo?" I asked, tears coming to my eyes as I stared at him. No gunshot wound, not looking sickly. Just plain handsome Tsuna who looks at me with admiration.

"Hai, Ann-ba-chan." He stated quietly.

Oba-chan? He really calls me that?! I felt the tears starting to overflow and I leaped at him and started to cry. "You're here, you're really here! Oh Kiddo! Don't you go and do a stupid thing like meeting him, get together with your Family you baka!" I started yelling at him.

"Hey! No hurting Tenth you woman!" Gokudera sputtered out and started to get out his dynamite.

"You shut up before I put my foot up your ass so far that you can see my brand new pedicure!" I pointed at him and then to my foot.

"Maa maa Goku-chan," started Yamamoto, trying to calm him down.

"My name isn't Goku-chan!" He yelled right back at the fairly tall adult with laughing eyes.

"Shut up all of you!" I said from Tsuna's shirt. "Let me get a good look at you before I have to go." Wiping up my tears from the napkin that is by me. I felt pressure to my other side and I see Lambo's body pressed up against mine, hugging me tightly, the noise in the background fading a little.

"Don't go," I barely heard him whisper. "Please don't go."

"It's not like I'm going anywhere," I stated, hugging him back, I noticed the background noise that was rest of the dudes arguing went silent. "I'm not going to the Mars, I'm going on a super secret time traveling mission with a very handsome time agent whose working for TORCHWOOD on a regular basis. Likes to flirt with any female. Makes me feel special."

"Hahahaha, haven't heard that in a while!" said Yamamoto.

"Kiddo?" I asked, looking back over to Tsuna. And whooo-yeee bub! We got a 10 now ladies! His face was solemn looking and eyes shadowed over. "I guess I do go somewhere for a while, but I bet I come back. And you guys will be there for me huh?"

Some of the group looks away or stares at me right in the eye. "Hai." Some of them managed to say.

"No matter what, I love you guys k? I may not have known you long, but I love you guys and will do anything to protect you." I kissed Lambo's hair, oh goody. Not chalked up with grape candy like I thought his hair would be.

And poof! I had that nasty cotton candy flavored taste in my mouth again. Geeze, felt like I just went in and out of the rainbow backwards and turned around like a shark getting away from a fishing net.

"Ugh, no more cotton candy! That taste disgusting!" I said after waving away the pink smoke, eyes still shut.

"Oh Nee-chan! That was a beautiful magic show that you put on! I didn't know that today was magic trick day!" said Nana from across the table.

I cautiously opened my eyes. "Surprise! How did you like my magic trick? Pretty nifty huh?" I stated, doing jazz hands to her and the rest of the group.

Oh wow, compared to their ten years later self they look so adorable! So cute and fluffy! But some of their faces looked down casted and sad, looked like somebody died.

Well I know it isn't me or Tsuna anymore, so I don't know whom.

"Anyways, Nee-chan how did you like breakfast? Thought you could use a break from working so hard that I took over your duties today." I stated for her, after we cleaned up the kitchen.

"Oh! It was so wonderful! I never had the chance to sleep in and have breakfast already cooked for me!" She exclaimed.

"I'm go glad that I was able to do it for you nee-chan! Now, I need to have a serious talking to about that with my brother-in-law whom I do not approve of."

"Ara! You'll have the chance next week! I got a call from Iemitsu saying that he got some time off and he's able to visit for a few days!" She squealed, glitter and happiness crowding her like she was a boyband manager.

Well crap. The Boyband Wearing Leather Pants Arc is happening.
