It was a happy day in October 14, XXXX.

The Sawada family gained two additions. Sawada Yoshinobu and Sawada Tsunayoshi. Both having nicknames of "Yoshi" and "Tsuna".

As Sawada Nana carries one of her sons, Tsuna, her husband, Sawada Iemitsu, carries Yoshi.

Her darling Tsuna has brown fluffy hair and brown eyes. While his brother has blonde hair, which was definitely from his father, and amber eyes. Yoshi resembled much like his father while Tsuna resembled much like his mother.

What a lovely family Nana has!


Iemitsu, Nana realizes, likes to pamper Yoshi more than Tsuna. She doesn't know why, but she just brushed it off. She'll take care Tsu-kun while he takes of Shi-kun.

It seems like Shi-kun grew a bit used to his Papa's pampering. It was hard to take care of both of them with Shi-kun wanting her attention and trying to take care of Tsu-kun after Iemitsu left.

But whenever she takes care of Shi-kun for too long, it seems like Tsu-kun just looks at her and smiles. As if he understands. He seems to have a higher understanding than most babies.

Nana smiles. With how energetic Shi-kun is and how it seems like Tsu-kun has a higher understanding than most, it will most likely be that Shi-kun will be athletic and Tsu-kun will be smart in the future. That would be the perfect twins to have!


Yoshinobu, when he was young, was taught that he would be the better one from the two.

His father always gave him attention. And his mother always gave him love. That must mean something, he would grow into the better one.

And so it became true. Once, the twins started going to school, other children were attracted to him. They kept on buzzing around him.

'It must be true!' he thought, 'I must be better than my brother! I am better and he is worse!'

And his brother just kept quiet. He never said any word and just listened. He got good grades. Pfft, as if grades mean anything. The others want the energetic and playful one, which was what he was. True to that, he was energetic and athletic. He also had a love for baseball.


One day, Iemitsu came back with his boss.

He greeted his wife with a kiss, his dear Yoshi with a hug and his brother a ruffle of his hair.

Tsuna just stared at him, not saying anything. It was as if he was staring deep into his soul, looking for his deepest, darkest secrets and his awful lies. It was...strange but he payed no attention to it.

It seems like he didn't want to interact with his father, so he decided to spend time with his wife and son.

And Tsuna? He was getting weird vibes from his father and the other man. Something was telling him to stay away. So he decided to climb a tree outside. As he climb one branch to another to get higher, something was telling him to get off. Now.

It was loud and sudden, it scared Tsuna. He missed a branch. Before he can fall, he was engulfed in Flames. It didn't hurt him and it felt...safe. He liked those Flames.

He landed on the ground, the orange Flames still there. He watched it dance on his fingers. He felt safe.

Something told him to hide them, and so he did. As soon as he did, he saw the other man that was with Papa go outside.

Those Flames were interesting.


He doesn't know why, but his grades were getting worse.

It seems like during tests, he just couldn't focus or get it right. He sometimes couldn't focus on class. Something is wrong.

He also trips on air now. It doesn't happen always before, yet now it is happening more often.

He suspects that it has something to do with when Papa and the other man arrived. He doesn't get it.

Why was this happening to him?


The two twins grew.

Yoshi was very athletic. He even joined the baseball club. He also was getting a fanbase. It was pretty large. He was good with words and was charming."Charming-Yoshi" they called him. Though, even if he was charming, his treatment to his brother wasn't the best.

He would usually ignore Tsuna, which Tsuna didn't mind. Even if he clearly saw Tsuna getting bullied, he would ignore it. And at home, wasn't any better. He would verbally abuse him and make sure that their mother would pay more attention to him.

It must be true! I am better and he is worse!" He thought, his treatment to Tsuna grew worse and worse until it became normal and his reasoning on why fades away. He just did.

And Tsuna? His grades were the worst and he was clumsy. "Dame-Tsuna" they called him. Though, he still had his Flames. Sometimes he would practice it and played with it in secrecy.

The Sawada Twins' lives are about to change.

The infant looks at their profiles. He was tasked to train one of them into Vongola Decimo.

Well then, Reborn smirks.

Sawada Yoshinobu, prepare to be Vongola Decimo.

Step one on how to steal a crown:

Always have your Flames.


hahah i havent updated Duplicated for a while hahahaha, fuck. anyways think this as an apology for not updating Duplicated for a while. school sucks and i want to cry.

this was barely planned, hopefully this won't flop.

also, this is in my wattpad account: FeatheryWishes. go and check it out. i want to also repost Duplicated there, it's just that copy and pasting is hard wtf.

also for those wondering why tsuna is dame even if his Flames weren't sealed, it's because when tsuna activated his Flames, iemitsu's and nono's Flames reacted badly to it, thus it resulted to tsuna being dame.
