Chapter 6
Few days after, life was hard. Hibari-san was a strict teacher rival next Reborn from 100 laps around the track to sparring in the west rooftop (dodging and running from the skylark is more like). Tsuna cry in tears of blood. This isn't something he wanted, but the way I-pin and Lambo would say how strong their Mama-Tsuna is, made him push on. Tsuna also felt that he had to train there something big that was coming.
Something is coming
He wasn't whether it was good or bad
But it is coming.

Tsuna walk to school Friday morning. His hand tightens on the strap of his bag. He got the feeling again. He look around his surrounding nothing was out of the ordinary. Saya was behind him, a few feet away reading a text books while Takano was busy playing his game console. Nothing is out the ordinary. Tsuna face forward and sigh maybe it was time to lay off the sweets.
"Tsuna…!"
Tsuna look and saw Takeshi and Hayato right beside him smoking a cigarette. Scrunching up his nose, he move back and pull the cancer stick from the silver boy mouth,
"Mou, Hayato, these things will kill you."
Hayato lost his composure but quickly bow his upper body, "I'm sorry, Tsuna-sama!"
There was snort behind them and eyes turn toward the Takano, who were clearly annoyed with the display. The twins walk passed them and disappear as they hurried inside the gate of the school.
"Tsuna, w-"
"Let's go," Tsuna said cutting Takeshi's question altogether and smile, "Hibari-san will bite us to death if we're late."
Sitting in class, Tsuna leans against the desk. He couldn't wait for break, he had a special bento box waiting for him...thinking about it his stomach gave another pulled. He missed breakfast and now he was starving. His mother had cooked today a real treat indeed….then again he could only do so much since his arm is still in the cast. Argh, when is that darn bell going to ring...he thought. He knew he was going to have to wait for it. That didn't mean he was going to listen to the teacher while he did. The teacher was rude and only out to get Tsuna humiliated in front of class. The teacher never bothers to listen to the poor boy no matter how hard Tsuna try to speak up. It was no point to listen to such a teacher and speaking of which, his so called training class is also tutoring class. Hibari-san said something in between of the lines of "A carnivore should be stealth with intelligent. You've disgrace its pride." At first he protested but when Hibari-san in his own way explains each problem with clarity. It didn't seem so bad of having the cold prince as his tutor.
"Sawada"
He cringes as he snapped back to earth. The teacher gave him a look, his right eye twitching. He can sense the malice from where the old man stood. Great...here we go.
"Can you answer of this, hm?" He indicated at one of the questions on the broad. Eyes glance at the finger where it was tapping against the green wall. Tsuna recall a similar one from the problems gone over the sheets that Hibari-san gave him. Before he could open his mouth, the teacher gave up a huge sigh and shrugging,
"Typical Sawada, you can't even answer to a simple question. An infant can answer this, how are you even related to the top student and star player is beyond me."
Tsuna blushed. Mortify, it struck a nerve. He always did question about how in the world was he related to his siblings, he just assume it just bad drawing of straw when he was created. He frowns mentally who give a flying fuck about the teachers. They never encourage him or help him. In fact they only made it worst. That's it no more! He stood suddenly that his chair scrapes back and tipping over on to the ground.
"I know the answer!"
Tsuna march up in front the board, picking up the chalk he began writing the solution. He mumbles under his breath as he'd work. He made a couple mistakes, but in the end he knew that he got it. Hilariously when he was done and turns his gaze at the teacher, all what the poor man can do was to stutter, "C-Correct…"
Pause for the dumbfounded crowd, Tsuna felt slightly good before squish it down from the looks he got from disapproving audience. It was not going to pretty. He quickly moves back to his seat, and then again someone remind him his place in this world. Tsuna, wince harshly as his face kiss the tile floor. Everyone laugh at him.
"See you'll always be Dame-Tsuna." A voice broke out and more laughs rang out.
Tears prickle and then the bell rang. Two set of hands reach and grab him before the crowd could get him trample on. Takeshi and Hayato share look with each other. They held Tsuna closer before, Hayato spoke for the group, "Let's go Tsuna-sama."
Tsuna smile before agreeing with the boys and head up to the rooftop. Tsuna ate a roll of omelet with spinach before looking down where a crowd forms around the baseball field. It was clear that Takano was playing kick ball. Well, from the girls gather around like bees with honey… Takano is doing just fine for now "Tsuna-sama?"
Tsuna made a noise as he kept his gaze down below.
"I notice- we notice the twins and-how," The boy voice trail off unsure of what to really to ask. Tsuna's eyebrows burrow in as he looks at Hayato of what he was asking.
"If it's about earlier, I shouldn't have done that." Tsuna admitting, "But I was just annoy of that teacher."
Takeshi smile a bit, "Yeah, he did push your button, Tsuna is smart in his own way."
School dragged on after lunch; proceeds to be even longer once Hibari-san grabs a hold of him after the academic classes were done. He then spends next three hours doing the workout routine. Build resistances against the skylark. Tsuna was down on the ground after finishing his laps around the tracks. His limbs twitch in pain as he catches his breath. He manages to sit up. Hibari-san only gaze, then turning around walking away. Tsuna groan and slump back on the ground. He gazes upward to the clear sky and took one deep breath, "Tsuna"
Tsuna turn a bit where he heard his name being called and found Takeshi and Hayato walking towards carrying his bag, Tsuna sat up completely forgetting that he was bruise from the skylark. He smile and took the bag from Hayato and reach for his water bottle. He then took huge amount of gulps of water. After feeling refresh both the boys help the brunette up and proceed heading home.
Tsuna play with the smaller children after doing some homework. I-pin and Lambo were running around right when he felt it again. The same feeling he always felt as if something was here, watching him, waiting for a strike. Tsuna look around but saw nothing. Nothing, which would say "DANGER" so why did it happen every time, he rub the nape of his neck. Ignoring the feeling he feels right this very moment. He still had be brave and put on a mask and not have people around worried. Takeshi and Hayato were getting a little too close to his secrets. Though, Tsuna doubts that they would ever find the reason. He made sure that he wore long turtle neck underneath his clothes 24/7 only to take it off only in the bathroom in order to hide his scars.
"Tsuna-mama?"
Tsuna was brought back to earth by a tug on his shirt. Lambo look at him with a question on his eyes, but Tsuna smile and distract the toddler by, "Come on, let's go make dinner."
It did the trick
Lambo gave a huge smile before running off. Tsuna looks back again at the window.
Later, Tsuna frown as he lean back as he settles in his bath. Dinner today was different. Saya smile and offer him tea. Never would she bother with such trivial matter. She was more of the person that would pay attention if it worthwhile, using resource or people to her personal gain. But tonight it was like she was acknowledging him as another human being with tea. It was good tea he might even add. Tsuna just sigh maybe it was nothing to worry about. Tsuna look down at his hand. Faded yes, but he could still see the scars and nick from hitting the ground and knife missing the target.
Ugly hands.
These hands were not made to help let alone save a life.
A scream pierce the next morning. Tsuna a light sleeper on most days, jump starling the other people in bed with him. The door barge open and two angry voices in sync
"Reborn," Tsuna wipe his eyes and yawn.
He tries to move only to find Lambo tighten his small arms around his waist. Lambo and made a protest, "No, stay."
Tsuna sigh, and move grabbing Lambo and held him in his arms. I-pin was still sleepy peacefully. He glances at the doorway. Saya and Takano were still screaming Reborn. He moved out of bed careful not to wake up more the children and cover them with the blanket. He looks at his siblings and notice that they were cover in these small skulls. Frowning he look at Reborn, who in return smirk as if he was expecting the treatment he was getting this moment.
"Huh, so it came?" he stated.
He then proceeds in changing into his trademark hitman clothes. Tsuna open his mouth to protest on what he just said but was cut off by something.
"One time I couldn't find the bathroom in the park so I pee in the bushes."
Saya blush deep cherry red before running out the door, Tsuna blink, Reborn began to chuckle in low tone. "Like a child."
"Reborn," Tsuna couldn't believe his eyes or ears for the matter. Then realizing what has spoken. He looks at Reborn in question. Reborn, jump from his bed shift and land on the ground.
"It's called the talking skull disease after being shot 10 times from the dying will bullets you contract it...revealing all your embarrassing secrets out in the open."
"Is there...a cure for it?" Tsuna hesitate asking this.
Reborn walk towards the door. He debate to tell the boy but was curious of what would the action of the brunette do. "No, they are going to die."
Tsuna, blinked before scrambling after Reborn, "W-what?"
Reborn pause from taking a step down the stairs, he look at the boy, "There's no cure...death is upon them~"
He pulled out a black cloak to cover himself as if he's the grim. Tsuna shiver at the thought if that was true Reborn a grim reaper. Thank god he's not...but Tsuna push that aside.
"You have to save them!" Tsuna stoop at the infant's level.
"What part of death, don't you understand?" Reborn question the boy before smirking,
"It's a good thing; you might be a better for the boss position."
Tsuna blanch at the thought, "Don't mock! This is serious, you have to help."
"Why?"
Tsuna paused. Why? Why did he want help from the infant? If the twins were in his position and he was the one with sickness would they have save him? Mentally he shouldn't think of those thoughts. But honestly he didn't care, "They are my family...there's no reason to question."
Reborn stare at the brief flickers eyes before pulling his hat down over his eyes. The pang of jealous rose. Maybe if he could train the boy in secret-no he knew well that he couldn't do that but maybe.
"Alright I call this doctor that I know."

Tsuna took the kids out. The twins were on edge. They were snapping at everyone before hole themselves in their room. Tsuna sigh, he felt better now that he was outside. Takeshi and Hayato also came so wasn't fully alone with the kids. Reborn was meeting later on news of the doctor. Tsuna watch the kids play tag before shifting his gaze towards the sky. The breeze ruffle his hair as he lean back. He stayed like for over 15 minute before deciding to grab his music player.
He shifts a bit and brought out the tangle mess of earphones. Once he got it untangle he plug them in and press play.
"When we met
The pain stood still
It was us
Then suddenly
It's where you go
The system blew
I knew
This side of me I want little more
But inside it seems I'm just a little boy, nothing else…."
Tsuna move his head to the beat. He continues to listen and sometimes mouthed the words. The beats of the drums and guitar were intoxicated. Pain enters his mind. Tsuna rub the back of his head. Rubbing the sore spot, he yanked the earphones before-THUD!
Tsuna fell on the ground. He rubs the other sore part of his head. He look up to find Reborn perch on the on the bench.
"That hurt Reborn!"
"Your guard was down." Reborn states as he look indifferent.
Tsuna pick himself off the ground and stood brushing the dirt. "What the news? Did you tell him? Are Saya and Takano going to be okay?"
BANG!
"Dame-Tsuna, be patience!"
Tsuna, jump back alarmed but then stutter, "H-hai...s-sorry."
Reborn smirk, "He's not coming…"
Tsuna eyes widen, "What do you mean he not coming?!"
"Is what I said, he not coming..." strain Reborn finally showing how irritate he was about the whole situation. Tsuna felt a rock drop on his stomach. If the doctor doesn't show then-
"Call him…"
Reborn perks up at the sound of the small boy's voice changing to a tone he is well familiar. Reborn felt his inner demon smirk. There was the inner boss he was looking for.
Leon, morph into the phone and Reborn dial. This could be interesting….
"Hello?"
"Shamal."
"Reborn, I told you I don't care for the Decimo-"
Tsuna, hearing this, snatch the phone "DON'T FUCK WITH ME!"
The infant just stare before turning away from the angry brunette. He stifles his laughter.
"Either you come or I'll hunt you down" Tsuna whisper very quietly.
Unknown to him, Takeshi and Hayato, were coming back with the kids and their ears pick up of this. They shiver. They knew Tsuna had a side that was very scary but-Jesus; they pity the person that is getting the burnt end of the stick. Suddenly as if Tsuna was released from whatever hold and gasp. He drop the phone as if electrify him. Reborn pick it up and spoke
"We'll wait for you." Reborn hung up and look at Tsuna's panic face "Good job."
HOW'S THAT A GOOD JOB?! Tsuna grip his hair.
They head back to the house. What greet them Tsuna shudder at the purple fume sprouting from the questionable food. Hayato made a face and grab his stomach. Tsuna went to grab the fallen sliver hair boy. He narrowly misses a flying platter of food.
"Bianchi~" someone called out
Tsuna grabs Hayato's arm "Are you going to be okay?"
But the older boy gave no answer to the question. He was in so much pain that he began to foam around his mouth. He moves Hayato with Takeshi's help into the living room. Where, he laid Hayato on the couch and rush to bathroom to get the medicine.
"Stupid, don't look!"
Tsuna avert his eyes from Takano who was cover in heavy cloths. Takano went downstairs where Tsuna could hear a bit on the conversation going on.
Reborn spoke. "Dr. Shamal."
Ah, the doctor here...good. Tsuna thought as he open the mirror cabinet. He came back to find the Doctor looking at Takano. Shamal note the cloths cover the kid. He knew why he was brought here. Dr. Shamal mentally wince that person, who had called him had a scary voice. Maybe he should have just cure the kid and not cause any more problems.
"Oh, Reborn, you're here…and this is the person who has the skull disease."
"Yes, Takano and his twin sister, Saya have the skull disease."
A Boy…? Shamal felt a little annoy. Reborn, know I don't do males….
Tsuna move towards Hayato and gave him the medicine. While he was doing so he overheard the doctor refusing heavy.
"No. I don't treat guys. I'll cure the girl of course~" He said leery.
"WHAT?!" Three people yelled at the same time. Saya had come down from her room to see the all commotion about. She sneers at the man. It is clear that she did not want the doctor anywhere near her. Tsuna frown, "Y-you have to!"
Dr. Shamal took one long look at him and then he change. "And who might you be?"
Tsuna backed away from the older guy. He did not like the look that he was getting, but at the same time he stood his ground. His arm was grabbed by the doctor. He was pulled into a chest. He was force to look from and stare into these black eyes, "Would you tell me your name?"
He leans close as if he was going to kiss the small boy. In this case, he was.
"BASTARD!" Tsuna felt himself yank away from the guy and gunshot been fired. Tsuna look at Takeshi and Hayato struggling to get into a sitting position.
"Ha ha...I suggest you don't touch Tsuna…" The arm grips tightly around him.
Tsuna shiver he never heard that tone from the most cheerful person. He looks around Reborn look like he going pull a Leon-chainsaw and maim the male. Even Lambo and I-pin stood in stance closer to him. He smile he met such wonderful people. He pats the arm around him and grabs the attention of everyone.
"Mou, stop it guys. I'm sure that he didn't mean to do that."
Tsuna look at the doctor dead in the center, "You have to cure them both."
Everyone stop and stare in shock of the boy's tone. What was even more shocking?! Dr. Shamal was shock. This voice! That voice came out of this boy?! He couldn't believe it, but he couldn't ignore the order. He nodded dumbly and willing to do it. However, someone didn't like it.
"I don't need help from a loser like you!" Takano spat out.
He spat it out as if it was the vile rum mixed with acid. Such hatred came out of his tone.
"Humph, as if. I don't have to help your ass." Dr. Shamal spoke, "But the cutie order me~" He made a kiss face at the small boy. Tsuna gave a look and smile uncertainly. Takeshi move Tsuna behind him.
"That's make it even worst! He's dame, pathetic, weak, and never mounts to anything. Person like him should do everyone a favor-!" Takano rant. Saya whack him with a thick book. He fell down unconscious.
Tsuna swallowed. He looks away. Tears welled up in his eyes.
"Bastard" Hayato rush out full force. No one will insult his Tsuna-sama without dying. He pulled out his dynamite and-
"Hayato stop." Tsuna move out from Takeshi and touch the silver hair boy. He turns to Dr. Shamal. "Please heal them, Dr. Shamal, I beg of you!" He bows deeply.
Saya sigh, damn Takano for rash brain, only way to save her plan, "Please, Takano is just upset...He never mean those things." and she too bow. It's the only way. But it didn't mean that she was going to like it. She is princess of Namimori soon to be a mafia boss of greatest family she does not bow to trash.
Dr. Shamal lips tighten as he lightly sneers at the boy on the ground. He didn't want cure this boy. Let the disease kill him for all he care, but to have the brother to save him regardless of the treatment. He wishes that this small boy was future boss. A boss he would gladly give his life up.
"Tsuna...your name is Tsuna right?"
Tsuna pause before looking up he wonder what does his name got to do with anything.
"Don't bow; I'll cure him and the girl."
Eyes lit up. Tsuna smile, flowers sprouting everywhere, "Thank you, Dr. Shamal."
Abruptly, Tsuna place his arms around the older male.
BANG!
"Let go, Tsuna."
Tsuna fell on the ground as he'd trip. He turns to Reborn. He did not look very happy.
"Tsuna."
Tsuna sallow, "Y-Yes, Reborn…?"
Reborn jump on his hair and grip it, "I'm hungry~"
"H-hai."
Tsuna got started on dinner right away. A hungry Reborn is a Devil Reborn. To make matters worse. The baby was watching his every move. Tsuna grew nervous. He knew Reborn was not picky eater but for some reason tonight it was peculiar. Dr. Shamal stay for the night. Well, no not really. Nana was fine with letting the man stay so was Tsuna. He was grateful for the man that saved his siblings. But the rest of the household...well they didn't like their "precious Tsuna" around a sleazy man like Shamal. Dinner came and everyone was a little tense after Takano was knocked out. Hayato and Takeshi were having a stare down with Takano, who was up and skull free. Tsuna just sigh and look at Reborn, which he was currently using his lap as a chair. Lambo and I-pin took his side follow by Takeshi and Hayato. Bianchi took the end while Nana took the head of the table. The right side was Saya, Takano, and Dr. Shamal. Although, Shamal sat further from Takano. Saya stood up and came back a few minutes later, "Tsuna, I made you your favorite tea."
Tsuna, look up when he did there was a piece of tempura sticking out from his mouth where he places it with fingers. Lately he's been doing that pick mostly his food with his fingers or stabbing it through his chopsticks. Luckily Shamal took a look at his arm. It seem that it was healing at fast pace. The cast could cold off roughly around a week or so. That made Tsuna very happy. He wanted to hug the guy again but thinking of the Spartan infant he stop himself. But Bianchi step in the line when Dr. Shamal made a move to grab him. He mumbles a "Thank you" and took the offer cup.
He finishes the morsel in his mouth and raises the cup. Still hot, he blew and then proceeds to drink.
"Ah, it's delicious!" He told his sister. She tilts her head smiling, "I'm glad…"
After dinner everyone was sorting in themselves their place. Hayato had to be dragged out by a laughing Takeshi after hearing that Shamal was going to stay at the Sawada residence. However Takeshi did threaten Dr. Shamal. Of course Tsuna was upstairs in his room when this happen. The cheerful boy along with everyone else beside the twins was possessive towards the brunette. Takeshi sharp eyes settle on Shamal dragging out Hayato from the house.
It didn't take long for Shamal to screw up. He went upstairs looking for the bathroom to refresh himself. But he didn't find. Instead he found something more. He stares at the backside of a thin smooth body. However, pleasing to the eye at first glance he saw something more disturbing. He saw scars litter all over his back. This child what did he see? He caught a glimpse of heaven and hell.
CLICK!
He heard a very familiar sound go off. A sound that in the Mafia world is well-known. Shamal stiffen and turn only to find the devil looking at him.
Reborn lost it, "You saw something?"
Shamal back away from the room where he stumble upon, "N-no…"
Reborn didn't look convince. "Oh? Then why is your face blushing?"
Shamal was in deep shit now. Reborn point the gun at his forehead and smirk. But his eyes spoke the fury of hell.
BANG!
Shamal could not escape any faster.

"Tsuna, if I had known," Gin said after finding out what happen to the small boy. He sobbed holding the boy close to his chest. Tsuna wave it off. "It's okay, y-you need me here."
Gin blinks his blue eyes at and smiles brightly, "You're so cute!"
And then proceed to hug the boy more before answering the phone
Everything was back to normal so far. Tsuna got the cast off but was told not to over strain it. Manage to get away from his overbearing friends. They have been over protective towards him after the Dr. Shamal incident. The older male didn't even stay for the night. Tsuna ask Bianchi of it. All he got was a creepy smile. Reborn, on the other hand seem very smug. Tsuna never bother to ask because he didn't want to know what poor unfortunate soul was torture by the infant Spartan.
"Tsuna, I'll go and head up the counter. The cook called in sick. Can you handle the cooking?" Gin came back seem to be putting his phone in his chest pocket.
Tsuna nodded, "Great, I'll change the menu then. These costumers are going to be thriller that you will be the chef today." Gin skips happily away from the brunette
Tsuna sigh. Gin is a basket case. He always let his workers play hooky. Tsuna, head in the kitchen where everything was in place and ready to be use. Tsuna smile as if he figures out that crazy dye hair junkie had planned this. Maybe because his hair today was dye purple; it affects his moods and actions.
Tsuna head to the small speakers and place his music player there. He press play and out blare out. One of his favorite songs came out pleasantly through.
"Tsumetai kusa no ue ni taorekomi
Hoteru karada wo kakushitai...
Mafuyu no seizatachi ga watashi no koibito
Zutto matte ita no... Kyou no kibun wa saikou desu
Zetsubou mo kibou mo nai
Sora no you ni sukitootte itai…"
Tsuna didn't take long at the desert. Gin came in front of the window with 5 papers clearly written with the orders. Tsuna look pass him and saw a line already forming or people sitting at the table. Tsuna brace him and got started.
"Awanai hou ga kenka suru koto mo
Genmetsu shiau koto mo nai... Naifu no you na kaze ga
Watashi no supiido agete iku no
Teiku five...
Donna jibun ga shiawase desu
Seikou mo shippai mo nai
Sora no you ni sukitootte itai
Kooto wo nuide naka e hairou
Hajimari mo owari mo nai
Kyou to iu hi wo sunao ni ikita"
Tsuna, hummed next to the music work at a fast pace. Everything went the flow. Tsuna almost felt at peace if wasn't for the nagging feeling in the back of his skull.
"Tsuna, I got 13 more order!" Gin called.
"C-coming right up!" Tsuna yelled. He places the food and grabs the order
"Tsuna, great to see again!" Someone yelled and raise their glass at the adorable boy, "Food is perfect as always!" Tsuna, blush and smile. Suddenly sparkle of dust flow in the background behind the brunette.
"I'm glad."
People turn away from the smiling boy. Clearly on the face a bright red spot appear on their cheeks. Tsuna continue to work and often check the soundtrack from his playlist. He moves along with some of his personal favorite and sing along. Music is just one of those things that can heal and forget everything that is just bad. People came and went. The tip was generous. Mostly everyone left and Tsuna took out the trash as Gin calls him out for a break.
Tsuna dump the trash. Dejvu. He did this similar thing. However, something was calling him further in the dark alley. Tsuna look back at the door. Maybe he should-
"Tsuna, don't doubt yourself and go!" Primo's voice flow out.
Swallowing his fear and began walking. Something was grasping his hand and leading him down. He didn't known what the hell was going on. But the deeper he went in. The stronger the pull got. He stops-there. The figure unnoticeable by the shadows but he can see the outline of young man.
He got close and reaches to touch him. Suddenly, his hand was grabbed, "Trash, what... the fuck...are you... doing"
Sharp red eyes stared him down. Tsuna shiver "I-I w-want t-to see if you're o-okay."
"Get the fuck...away from me….I don't need your help!"
The young man move into the light and Tsuna saw him more clearly. Blood!
"You're hurt!" Tsuna slap the man's arm and kneel on the floor. He grabs his handkerchief and move to press on the gash on the side of his left face. The man winces and tries to move away. Tsuna took a hold and ignore the resistance. He presses it gently on the wound. Tsuna look from his face to his body. Cuts, bruises, and large patch of blood, Tsuna wasted no time and rip the last remains of the white shirt the stranger had on. The wound on his side didn't look too bad, but he wasn't sure. Not in the dark like this.
"I'm going to get help!" Tsuna said standing back.
He turns to leave-
Slap...Tsuna pause as he look down at his arm, a hand. He looks at the young man. For a second he saw an unknown emotion filter in the eyes. Tsuna understood.
"Don't worry, I won't leave you."
