"It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to."
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

Kurama had never even considered becoming the Student Council President for Namimori middle school. The fact that the position hadn't existed until Kurama was shoved into it was a rather large factor, but ultimately beside the point. When it came right down to it, Kyoya Hibari always got what he wanted and in that particular situation he wanted someone else to handle paperwork and people, so he could simply bite (beat) people to 'death' in peace.

Kurama had sighed but eventually given into the violent boy. After all, with Hibari's backing, the principle and all of the teachers listened to what he said. Which later helped him fire and ruin the careers of a few teachers who decided to try and pick on his little brother.

At the end of the day, it didn't really affect his normal activities too much and gave him quite a bit of say on matters of the school. He had thought of it as a winning situation until today.

He stared at the chaos in front of him feeling slightly overwhelmed.

Ostriches.

On the school campus.

Running amok.

Kurama really, really wanted to kill someone.

Preferably the not-child who must have been behind this.

"Fox."

Kurama twitched at the nickname. Hiei had started it, then Hibari picked it up somewhere down the road. He normally didn't mind all that much, but with the not-child in town he would rather not give out free hints.

Then again, trying to get Hibari to actually heed what he said was a feat he had not yet fully managed.

"Yes, I know. This is a mess." He frowned and glanced at the other boy. "I'll deal with it."

"You know who did it."

Kurama sighed there really wasn't a point in hiding it from him. "Yes, but the matter it complicated. He suddenly showed up today calling himself Reborn and claiming to be a Tutor. He's… a baby, but not at the same time."

Hibari titled his head in confusion, but there was a glimmer of recognition in his eyes. Kurama wasn't sure if he knew something about the not-child or if he was relating the situation to Kurama and Hiei. He, much like Tsuna, could be uncannily perceptive at times.

He watched warily as a bloodthirsty grin made its way across his face. "I'll keep an eye out."

Kurama nodded. It was better than nothing and maybe having Hibari on his back would make this Reborn character back off a bit. Hibari walked away cutting a path through the panicking students and the ostriches like it was nothing.

Kurama heaved a deep sigh, resigning himself to spending the next few hours trying to sort this mess out.

Needless to say, he was quite...irritated when he found out that whole mess was because Reborn was covering for the fight between Mochida and Tsuna.


Don't even ask about the ostriches...I don't even know. It just sounds like something Reborn would do.

Veedramon~ Thanks for the review! From his own group? Um, no I don't think so. Do you mean guardians? Or the YYH Spirit Gang?

Not-Gonna-Update~ Glad you like it! Well, I mean he's a thousand-year-old demon fox in the body of a human child, so I think Kurama would be pretty chill about the whole dying will flames thing. XD Thanks for the review!
