KHR!xMSN!: Magical Crossover!
Chapter 2: Goodbye Namimori
"Attention please!" A homeroom teacher of Namimori-High-School called loud enough to get the attention of the students of his class, "before we start the lesson, one of us has something important to announce to us."
The students were looking towards their teacher while whispering to each other and only to wonder what's going to happen now.
"Sawada-san, Dokuro-san, please," the teacher called up the two names. The moment of Tsuna's name was mentioned, the class became immediately silent and their eyes were following every movement of him.
Tsuna himself nodded toward his teacher and walked up to the front, Chrome was right behind him.
Now standing in front of his teacher and Chrome taking his side, Tsuna turned towards his classmates, "everyone," he began, as his voice was quite gentle, yet very serious, "first I don't want to make you think this will be sad news, but I just want to say: Thank You. Thank you for accepting me, and of course Chrome, as your classmates. We had a lot of fun since our high-school days began, I will truly treasure these memories. Second, as you know this term is not over yet, all of us still have a lot to do, I'm sure if you all are trying your best you can reach everything you want to do, just remember, never give up, no matter how hard it may be. And lastly, we both will truly miss you all. I wish all of you the best, have a strong heart, and face every challenge you will meet."
"W-What is this all about, Tsuna-sama?" Akemi was confused, her voice was clearly trembling. She didn't understand, why her prince was saying all of this to them and she actually didn't want to understand it.
Tsuna made a gentle smile at her and bowed to the class, "by tomorrow, Chrome and I will be transferred to another school."
"!"
"...?!"
"W-W-WHAT?!"
"Why?!"
"Tell me you are lying!"
"Our prince is leaving?!"
"Our Goddess?! No!"
Voices could be heard from every direction, none of them could control their volume as they were trying to progress what Tsuna just had said to them.
"I'm really sorry, I wish this wouldn't be so sudden, but this is something personal, I'll try to answer all of your questions, but I can't tell you everything... I hope you can all understand," Tsuna said as he tried to calm them all down.
"T-T-Tsunayoshi-san are you really leaving us?" Hikari whispered to herself in deny, holding her hands together as she felt like the world is shattering around her.
"Yes, unfortunately, it's true, Hikari," Tsuna answered her question while looking at her, making sure that she knows, that he had heard her.
"W-What about this year's school tournament, Tsu-Kun! W-why so sudden? Wait..! I heard 'he' came back yesterday, could it be...?" Kiriko asked in a defeating tone, if it was true, what she was thinking.
Tsuna nodded at her, also switching his gaze to the few soccer members from his class, "... I know, this is too sudden, but I also know, no, I'm sure, that you can do this without me, our members are strong, I have faith in you all."
"Tsu-Kun/Captain...!"
Akira decided to ask another question as she was a bit suspicious of this, "truthfully I still don't understand why you are leaving, Sawada, but why is Chrome is also transferring to another school with you?"
"Our transfer was already decided by yesterday, Chrome and I were chosen by a special program, I'm sorry but I can't say any more than that."
"What do you-?" Akira tried to protest, but the teacher stopped her with a shaking head and decided to step in.
"I know the news is shocking for us all, but this is something the principal had decided and even though this is a sudden goodbye, Sawada-san and Dokuro-san won't be away forever, they will come back," he assured the class. Truthfully, he was really surprised by the news, especially after seeing the famous Professor Borin (Reborn alter ego) besides the principal this morning.
"Eh? You are coming back, Tsuna-sama?" Akemi's tears stopped after she heard this revelation.
"Oh yes, didn't I mention this? We will back for our third year," Tsuna made a confusing face.
"What?! You should have told us that from the start! Give me back my tears!" One of the soccer members playfully shouted, "though, we really have to defend our title without you this year, oh well, if we are losing it, take responsibility and win the National title next year!"
"Tsunayoshi-Kun, you really make things too dramatic!" One of the girls sighed.
"Well, it's still a long time, but as long we are seeing you again, everything is alright."
"Bring us some souvenirs, kay?"
"*Sigh* Tsuna-sama, my heart..."
"Our goddess... thank god! I thought we had lost her forever."
"Wow, after they know that they are coming back, they all cheered up immediately," Akira sweatdropped, "but I still wonder why they are suddenly transferring in the first place, this is too weird."
Hikari was truly relieved, she thought she would never see her prince ever again and would regret, that she hasn't told him how she felt about him yet. She made a demanded vow, "I've decided! When Tsunayoshi-san is coming back, I'll win this year's championship and then confess my feelings to him!"
"Huh? Did I do something wrong?" Tsuna was oblivious of the fact, that he almost broke a lot of hearts. Chrome, who was still standing beside him, made a long sigh, it was so typical for her 'Boss'.
-Nanimori High School/Rooftop-
Tsuna sighed, a bit exhausted. Today felt truly long as the news of him and Chrome leaving, leaked out to the whole school, no even the whole town, and everyone wanted to be with him one more time.
"Yo, Tsuna, we knew you would be up here," a familiar voice greeted him from behind. Tsuna turned around and saw Yamamoto with the rest of his close friends: Gokudera, Ryohei, Kyoko, Chrome, and another girl called Hana. He also felt that both Hibari and Mukuro were also there, though they were both hidden.
"Jyuudaime! Are you alright?" Gokudera immediately hurried up to him, checking if he was okay.
"Yes, just a bit tired, thanks for your concern, Hayato," Tsuna assured him with a smile.
"So tomorrow.. are you two really leaving us, Tsuna-Kun?" Kyoko asked, feeling really sad.
Tsuna nodded, "I was wondering, why you didn't ask, even you, Hayato, didn't say anything, I thought it was strange."
"Hearing that Reborn came back yesterday and Jyuudaime sudden transfer, we could pretty much connect it together," Gokudera became more serious, but this quickly turned to a whimper expression, "b-but why is THIS woman is going with you? Why not your trustfully right-hand man? Did I have done something wrong, Jyuudaime?"
"I'm sorry Hayato, of course, you haven't done anything wrong, but I do think that Chrome is more suitable for this mission," Tsuna chuckled, this was the typical Gokudera reaction he had missed earlier. "Don't you trust me?" He asked, with a small pout in his voice.
"No! No! I didn't mean it like that! Of course, I trust you, if it was Jyuudaime's decision, I will accept it! No matter what!" Gokudera quickly bowed several times towards Tsuna, ashamed of himself.
"Thank you, Hayato, I knew you would understand," Tsuna made a grateful smile to him, which Gokudera almost couldn't handle.
"Wow, he really knows how to handle Stupid-dera," Hana said with a light chuckle.
"Eh? What do you mean Hana?" Kyoko wondered what her best friend meant.
"You're really an airhead, Kyoko," Hana sighed, but smiled nonetheless, making Kyoko more confuse, "oh well, it's just like you."
[Kurokawa Hana, is a classmate of Tsuna and Kyoko's best friend. She appears more observant and thoughtful than most of the other female characters]
Hana then turned towards Tsuna, "say, Tsuna, what is your transfer about? It's obvious that it has something to do with the Vongola..."
Tsuna nodded, her observation skill is truly on another level, no wonder she quickly found out about them and the Vongola Famiglia.
[The Vongola Famiglia has long since been the most powerful Mafia Famiglia in all of Italy, also spread around the world. Several other Famiglias serve under the Vongola umbrella, including several members of the infamous Acrobaleno, including Reborn. The Vongola living up to their title as the best and the strongest. The influence of the Vongola is worldwide, and it was said that no Famiglia can match them in terms of size, tradition, rules, or power, and due to this, the boss of the Vongola is considered by many to be "Boss of all Bosses". At the moment, the Vongola Famiglia is led by the Vongola Nono: Timoteo, but will soon be succeeded by the Vongola Decimo, or as to how Gokudera calls him: Jyuudaime. That's right, our main hero, Sawada Tsunayoshi.]
"Well, it's best if I tell you what happened yesterday... after Reborn came back home."
-Flashback: A New Mission-
"We can do this all night," Reborn said, never losing his smile as he was again the one standing behind Tsuna.
"I won't lose..!" Tsuna replied with a determined look in his eyes.
"Oh come on, can you both please stop! Dinner is almost ready!" Fuuta tried to stop their childish game.
"'Boss', Reborn-san, hurry up, dinner is ready," Chrome said with a stern voice, also wanting them to finish up their game.
"Alright we are coming, Fuuta, Chrome!~" Tsuna replied with a sweatdrop. The last thing he wanted is to upsets Chrome as she can be really mean with her illusions. He then turned back to Reborn, "so, this was just a fake explosion?"
Reborn smirked, taking a receiver out of his pocket and press the play button, the same sound of an explosion from before could be heard.
Tsuna shook his head, "why am I even asking?"
"Well, Dame-Tsuna, I really need to punish you if you had slacked off during my absence, to my dismay you have passed my test," Reborn devilish smiled, hopping on Tsuna's shoulder as they went down to the dining room.
Reborn will be always Reborn.
-'Sawada Household'/Dining Room-
Tsuna and Reborn were the last to join the table. After both of them sat down, the people on the table wished each other a good meal and finally began to dig into their food.
"SECOND ple- 'cough' 'cough'," a young boy coughed up his food, as he finished his first bowl in an instant.
"Lambo! Slow down, you eat too fast!" A Chinese girl sitting beside him, scolded, as she helped him by tapping his back.
"But I-Pin, this food is so great, I can't hold back myself," Lambo complained.
[Lambo, who originally came to Japan with the intent of killing Reborn, 3 years ago, is now a member of the 'Sawada Household'. He was a very spoiled and cowardly child who takes candy from everyone, but now he has matured a lot, well as much as he could for an 8-year-old child. He trained with Gokudera Hayato every day and always try to make some original special technique, with ridiculous names, (often destroying something from the 'Sawada Household')]
[I-Pin, the same age as Lambo, is someone you could say as Lambo's babysitter and playmate. I-pin really likes Chrome as her big sister and admirer her. Despite being 8, she's almost as strong as a black belt adult. She's also a member of the 'Sawada Household']
"But Lambo is right, this is really good, as expected from you, mother," Tsuna was truly amazed by the food today.
"Aww, thank you dear, but I can't take all of the credits, because Chrome-chan helped me a lot~" Tsuna's mother, Sawada Nana, happily pointed to Chrome, who in turn was very embarrassed by the compliments.
[Sawada Nana, a very carefree and friendly person, nobody could ever hate her. She always makes delicious meals for all the people who are presently living in her house and does not see anything strange with any of them. She is very naive and gullible as she's still unaware of the fact that her son and husband are part of the Mafia. Most people refer to her as 'Maman']
"Really? You're amazing Chrome, can I have also a second, please?" Tsuna complimented her, handing her his bowl over.
Chrome's face quickly heated up, she's very happy that her 'Boss' likes the food she prepared, "O-of course, 'Boss'!"
"Oh my~ My little Tsuna grown up in the blink of an eye, he even made my heart beating fast.~" Nana playfully smiled.
"Mother, I can't always be your little Tsuna," Tsuna chuckled in response.
"And now he's breaking my heart.~" Nana made a dramatic fall with tears in her eyes.
In an instant, Tsuna got smacked by a big fan out of nowhere, "I won't forgive you if you make 'Maman' cry," Reborn threatened Tsuna.
"Ouch, no mercy, huh?" Tsuna made a painful smile, making everyone in the room laugh.
"Aww, Reborn-Kun, I can always count on you," Nana quickly got back to her cheerful side, "I'm really happy you are back, welcome home, Reborn-kun~ and of course you too, Leon-chan~"
[Leon, is a chameleon who is Reborn's animal partner. Leon has a shapeshifting ability, he can literally turn into anything and is the main weapon of Reborn]
Reborn responded to her with a small smile and Leon happily waves his tail.
"Ew... I don't want this," suddenly Lambo complained in the middle of nowhere.
"Lambo! You need to eat your vegetables!" I-Pin scolded Lambo once again.
"I-Pin, you can have those," Lambo said as he transferred his vegetables to her dishes.
"Lambo!" I-pin became very angry at his immature action.
"Lambo, eat your vegetables, or I will force you to eat Bianchi's special dinner later," Reborn said with an indifferent voice.
Lambo's eyes immediately shot open, taking all the vegetables back to his bowl.
"Oh? Too bad,~" the last member of the 'Sawada Household', Bianchi, sighed, as she was about to stand up, preparing her 'special' dish.
[Bianchi, is Gokudera's older half-sister. Her specialty is Poison Cooking, a technique that turns any food she makes into poison, regardless of whether or not it's intentional. Bianchi herself is immune to her Poison Cooking and believes that she is quite an excellent cook. It's been three years since she invaded the Sawada household and there was no reason to leave as she quiet like this family and of course, cause her true love Reborn lives also there]
"Don't worry Bianchi-nee, maybe next time," Fuuta laughed, Reborn just knows how to make Lambo eat his vegetables.
"Do you want some, Fuuta? I can start right away," Bianchi's eyes sparkled.
"Eh? N-no...! I mean, I'm already full, Bianchi-nee! M-maybe next time," Fuuta quickly answered, almost setting up his own graveyard.
Tsuna chuckled, but he quickly regrets that he made any noises as Bianchi's head turned towards him, "Uhm... No, Thank you?"
"..."
After they all have finally finished up their dinner, and Tsuna recovered from Bianchi's' special' cooking, Reborn had something to announce.
"Tsuna," Reborn began shortly, immediately making everyone, besides Nana, alert, because Reborn never used the term 'Tsuna' if it wasn't serious.
The tension became thicker as Reborn made a long pause before talking any further,
"..."
"..."
"...CONGRATULATION! You have been chosen, to become a teacher of a special [Teacher-Study-Programm], in two days you will be transferred from Namimori-High-School to Mahora Academy in Tokyo, for the rest of this school term. And don't forget to thank your 'Grandpa', it was his 'recommendation' that you were selected, to have this wonderful chance to experience something good for your future," Reborn cheerfully announced, confetti popped from everywhere, as he holds a paper with a lot of information towards his student.
They all became baffled, of the sudden joyful Reborn, but only a second later they've all realized what Reborn had just said to them or more like to Tsuna.
"Ehhhh?!"
"What do you mean, Reborn?!" Tsuna was really surprised by this sudden announcement, "I'll become a teacher? But why-," he was about to ask, but quickly realize something. This is from Reborn after all and 'Grandpa' is also a codeword for 'Vongola Nono' and it was even his recommendation, surely it has something to do with the Vongola. He quickly glanced towards his mother, but notice something was strange around her.
"Mahora Academy... Teacher... Tokyo..." Nana whispered, her face was hidden by her bangs.
"Mother..? Is something wrong?" Tsuna was wondering, something was different around his mother at this moment.
"A-Amazing! Tsuna is becoming a teacher?! Oh no, Tokyo? This is so far away, I need to pack you enough underwear! Leave it to mother!" Nana quickly left the room in joy.
Tsuna sweatdropped, but he quickly changed it into a small smile, "guess I was worried for nothing, she's still the same... not even questioned it, no matter how strange it sounds." He now turned back to Reborn, "I knew you wouldn't come back with empty hands, but I'll be becoming a teacher? Can you explain it to me, Reborn?"
Reborn smirked, the old Tsuna would nonstop complain, but he truly has grown up, "good insight, this is actually a special mission for you."
Tsuna rose an eyebrow, "a special mission for me? Or do you mean for us?"
"You heard it right, it is a Solo-Mission for you, however, you can actually bring along one person with you, if you feel lonely."
"A Solo-Mission?" Tsuna's interest perked up, it's rare for him to have a solo mission, " but why am I given an option to bring a person with me?"
"We don't want to attract too much attention. And adding one more person wouldn't be a problem as we can make this person as your assistant."
"Makes senses... So what is this mission about? If it takes such a long period, this is something important, right?"
"If it wasn't important, Nono and I wouldn't let you do this mission. To tell the truth, you are the only one we can depend on, at least Nono said so," Reborn replied. Truthfully it was also a bit sudden for himself as Vongola Nono told him about this important mission just recently.
"Grandpa did? The teacher thing is obviously a cover, what is my REAL job then?" Tsuna got really curious if even the Vongola Nono had recommended him himself.
"Protecting a girl," Reborn simply replied.
"Protecting... A girl?" Tsuna thought about this, but he realized something, "don't tell me Uni-chan? Did something happens to her again?"
"No, Uni is safe, it is actually another girl," Reborn answered, "but.. she is somewhat similar to Uni, having a unique power inside her."
"I will do it," Tsuna accepted this mission, without even hearing the full details.
"Are you sure? You don't even know, how dangerous this mission could be. You can still decline, after all, even if it's the Nono request, you are still the future Decimo, we can always send someone else," Reborn asked, giving him the last chance to refuse.
"I will take this mission! I will never let something like Uni-chan happen once again! I will never forget her pain and sadness during our fight with Byakura from the alternative future! And my Vongola Hyper Intuition tells me that I will regret it if I turn this down," Tsuna said with full of determination.
[The Vongola Hyper Intuition is a blood trait passed down through the generations of Vongola Bosses. It determines the eligibility of a person in order to be able to succeed the Vongola, and was described as a power that could see through all.' No one really knows how it actually works, but experience could tell Tsuna that if his Intuition is tingling then there is always something going on]
Reborn smiled, this is the 'Dame-Tsuna' he knows, no matter how much he had matured or physically changed, he is always true to himself, "Dame-Tsuna you still have a long way to go, leading the Vongola won't be easy."
Tsuna smiled back, "I guess I have, but I don't have to worry, with a teacher like you."
"So, did you decide, who do you want to bring along?" Reborn asked.
`Well... he said, we shouldn't attract too much attention. This crossed-out Kyoya, Mukuro, Lambo, Ryohei-nii, and Hayato. Well, I guess Takeshi is the only one, besides me, who could somewhat calm them down if things get too dangerous. The Kokuyo-Gang wouldn't want to be apart from Mukuro. The Varia, along with the twins, are still in Italy, Fuuta and I-pin are still too young, and I don't really want a daily 'special' cooking from Bianchi. Shoichi, Spanner, Kiriko, Kyoko, Haru, and Hana are still not used to the Vongola missions yet and this could be very dangerous, maybe I should do it alone, it could also be a challen-,´ Tsuna went through to his list thoughtfully as suddenly something tugging his shirt, wanting to get his attention.
"'Boss'...," a gentle voice rose up, it was Chrome, her eye was staring into Tsuna eyes, it was obvious she wanted to be pick by Tsuna.
"Chrome..," Tsuna saw her determination in her eyes, truly Chrome would be suitable, if it about avoiding attention, she would be the best... well if you ignore her eyepatch and pineapple hairstyle, "... are you sure? You won't be able to see Mukuro for awhile."
Chrome shook her head, "it's alright, I'm sure Mukuro-sama will understand, and... I don't want to be separate from you...," the last part she said faintly, no one could hear.
Tsuna finally decided after he went through his list one last time, "alright, let's do our best together, Chrome!"
Chrome's expression became delighted, giving Tsuna a beautiful smile, "Yes, 'Boss'!"
"So it's Chrome, huh?" Reborn made a knowing smirk as if he knew the outcome from the very beginning. Some in the room were a bit disappointed that they weren't chosen, but they didn't complain, they knew Chrome was the better choice.
Tsuna nodded, "so can you tell me the details? Who is the girl I have to protect?"
"Her name is Konoe Konoka, and she's a student of Mahora Academy located in the northern Tokyo of Japan," Reborn said, handing some papers to Tsuna.
"Konoe... Konoka...," Tsuna repeated, something about this name sounds familiar, maybe it was just his imagination as he never saw her face before as he looking at her profile picture... or did he?
"Wait, it says Mahora Academy is an academy that split the males from the female students. Since Konoe-san is a girl, she will be on the all-girl-school side, how can I protect her, when I'm a male? And no, I won't be cross-dressing!"
"You really still a 'Dame-Tsuna' this is why you become a teacher, you will be teaching her class in the subject of history," Reborn sighed, though he wondered why Tsuna forgot this detail, the 'Dame-Tsuna' from before would, but nowadays his attentions aren't that bad.
"Oh right, teacher, for some reason my mind blank it out, wait, I don't have the license of a teacher though," Tsuna wondered.
"You don't have to worry about that, we are the Vongola after all, it's easy to smuggle you in, but this time, it was already arranged by Nono, it seems he and the Dean of the Academy are old friends like I said early, it is a [Teacher-Study-Programm], of course, it's just a cover," Reborn said.
"I see, and about my current school, I will be leaving for the rest of this term, right? I know the Vongola probably already taken care of how I will leave the school, but when we come back, can we still advance to the third year, despite missing lessons?"
"Of course, though you are indeed a 'fake' teacher, you will still teaching a class, the condition for you two to graduate into the next term is to make all of the students of your new class pass the exam by the end of this school year. We are also consistently sending your schoolwork from Namimori, feel free to study during your free time."
Tsuna sighed, "you really don't want me to take it easy, huh? Oh well if it all is taken care of, what is this girl power anyway?"
"Magic."
"...Magic?"
"Yes, magic... you know Magicians, Wizards, Warlocks, Sorcerers, Mages, and Witches."
After some awkward silence moments.
"I guess I shouldn't be surprised, It's not like we are normal either. Getting shot by a bullet with something called Dying Will. A Bazooka that can switch with our future selves and...," suddenly a ring on Tsuna's hand ignited an orange flame, and after the flame died down a small lion cup appeared.
"Gao!"
"Hey, Na-tsu," Tsuna smiled petting his animal partner, "I wouldn't be even surprised if Hayato was right, and aliens really exist out there."
[Leone di Cieli ver. Vongola (Lion of Sky ver. Vongola), nicknamed Na-tsu, is Tsuna's Sky attribute lion cube partner. Natsu's personality mirrors that of Tsuna's.]
"A word of advice, you will quickly learn that magic is very common there... however, it's still a school for 'normal' humans, only a handful there knows about magic, so don't get too much attention with your Dying Will Flame."
[The Dying Will Flame is regarded as the symbol of the Mafia World. It's described as a high-density form of energy that is refined from one's own life force. Due to the way it resonates with one's emotions, it has been regarded as a type of battle aura. However, unlike the aura, which is a supernatural phenomenon that can only be seen by a few individuals, the Dying Will Flame is in many ways more like a real flame, possessing even its own destructive properties. Dying Will Flames are graded according to their purity, which has a direct relationship with the strength of an individual's resolve. Among other things, this rate of purity serves to indicate how much of the special characteristics of the Flames are being drawn out. Each Flame's attribute has its own special characteristic]
"Alright, but why now? Why does Konoe-san need protection now?" Tsuna wondered.
"Well I only heard some details, apparently she was recently kidnapped during her class trip in Kyoto, though everything turns out to be alright in the end, the Dean, her grandfather, by the way, wanted more protection for her. In the first place, she didn't know about her own power, only now she's aware of it."
Tsuna sighed, "so she thought she was a normal girl? They should've let her know earlier, in the end, sooner or later she will find it out anyway. Even if they want her to have a normal life. Maybe I-"
"This isn't our concern, I only agreed to let you do this mission because Nono was insisting this," Reborn cut in, making sure Tsuna won't forget his position as the 'Decimo', "your main mission is to protect her and that is all. Don't get to attach to them, they are still living in another world apart from us."
"I-I understand... When will be this mission begin?" Tsuna knew Reborn was right, he shouldn't involve the girl nor anyone else into the mafia stuff.
"The day after tomorrow."
"Already?" Everyone in the room was shocked.
"Instead of wasting your time, you should pack your stuff already," and with that Reborn left the room.
-Flashback end-
-Namimori High School/Rooftop, Present Time-
"And that's the reason why we are transferring to Mahora Academy," Tsuna finished up.
"Haha, seems like you will be sent into something interesting," Yamamoto cheerfully grinned.
"Magic..!" Gokudera's eyes sparkled, "Jyuudaime! Please reconsider! Take me with you!"
"I see a personal mission from Vongola Nono," Hana sighed, ignoring Stupid-dera outburst, "protecting a girl, all-girl-school, huh... Seems like you will getting even more rivals from now on, Kyoko."
"Eh? W-what do you mean, Hana?" Kyoko was a bit flustered by her friends' statements.
"Don't mind it," Hana made a sad smile. Two years ago, Kyoko would've been Tsuna's number 1, but after those years, Tsuna matured a lot, she does think that Tsuna still likes Kyoko, but he became an incredibly dense person... no, that's not right, because of him being a mafia boss, he doesn't have the same affection towards Kyoko as before as he is warier of himself and the danger he dragged along. This is something Hana will always respect.
Tsuna was about to say something but suddenly the door of the rooftop opened widely, as Kiriko came out running up to Tsuna, "Tsu-Kun! Chro-chan! There you are! Quickly come with me, you guys, too," she shouted dragging Tsuna and Chrome down the stairs. The others were right behind them, especially Gokudera, shoutings of 'letting Jyuudaime go' could be heard repeatedly.
"K-Kiriko? What's wrong? Did some-?!" Tsuna was wondering why Kiriko was so eager but stopped as he became overwhelmed with what he is seeing right now. There was a very big banquet, in front of the schoolyard, a lot of students and teachers were standing there, smiling at him.
Kiriko was pointing something behind Tsuna, as he turned around, he saw a big poster hanging above the entrance of Namimori High School: 'HAVE A SAFE TRIP'
"Why..," Tsuna was speechless.
"Why? We are just making sure, that you will always remember that Namimori is the best and you're always welcome to come back home anytime, it was actually Hika-chan idea," Kiriko grinned, pointing at Hikari.
"Eh?! N-No, it was everyone's i-idea.. and Akemi planned everything through," Hikari denied.
"Come on, Hikari, just take it, it was you who ignited us to make a farewell party for Sawada," Akira smiled, she was very proud of her friend, who had the courage to convince everyone.
"Yesh, Hikari you brought the school together, I just helped to organized everything, though I'm sorry Tsuna-sama, time was too short for a BIGGER banquet," Akemi apologized, she felt that this was not big enough for her prince.
Tsuna shook his head, "no, this is already amazing, thank you Hikari-san, Akemi-san, everyone!"
"Heh, not bad," Gokudera admitted.
"Wow, you guys are really thoughtful," Yamamoto grinned.
"An EXTREME banquet!" Ryohei shouted.
"Now you have to come back, Tsuna-Kun, Chrome-chan," Kyoko giggled.
"Good for you, Tsuna," Hana smiled.
"Kufufu, if I take Tsunayoshi-Kun's body, I will also take this popularity," Mukuro smirked.
"I won't let you have Boss body, Mukuro-sama," Chrome making sure that Mukuro is staying faaaaar away from her Boss.
"Hmpf," Hibari standing far away on the sideline, accepted the 'crowd', only for this one time.
"Tsu-kun, we hope you will never forget about Namimori, we will surely make you homesick!" Kiriko declaring their goal with a big grin.
Tsuna laughed, "I'm already feeling homesick! You are the best, everyone!"
-The next day/Early in the morning/Namimori Railway Station-
"It's about time," Tsuna whispered to himself as the wind gently blowing his hair from his face away.
"You sure you have everything ready, Dame-Tsuna?" Reborn asked for the last time.
"Ready to set," Tsuna replied and turned to his companion for this mission, "Chrome?"
Chrome nodded, "I'm ready, 'Boss'."
"Jyuudaime... I-I should accomplish you, what if something happens to you?" Gokudera, once again, tried to convince him to take him with him.
Tsuna shook his head, "you worry too much, Hayato. Chrome and I will be fine, don't you have faith in us?"
"N-No! I didn't mean it like that. Just to be sure.."
"Hayato! I trust everything to you... If I know that you are here, I can leave Namimori with a clear mind. After all, you are my Right-Hand-Man, isn't that right?" Tsuna said straightly to Gokudera, putting both of his hands over Gokudera's shoulder.
"J-Jyuudaime! Y-Yes!I understand I will protect the Famiglia in your stead," Gokudera's eyes burned with a new passion.
"He really has Stupid-dera under control, I wonder if Tsuna doing this on purpose," Hana sweatdropped, while Reborn made a small smirk in the background.
"The train could be coming any minutes, we should say our goodbye now," Yamamoto suggested.
Everyone on the station agreed this will be their last time together for a while before Tsuna and Chrome left.
"Jyuudaime! Leave everything to me, I won't disappoint you! Good luck for your mission," Gokudera took the start, and then turned to Chrome, "woman! If you ever trouble the Jyuudaime...! Just make sure nothing happens... to both of you," he softens up with a sigh.
Tsuna nodded, "I'll see you later, Hayato!"
Chrome was truly shock, for the first time Gokudera didn't give her a glare, "Y-Yes!"
"Don't ever forget us and when you guys come back, my old man will throw the best "Welcome Back Sushi" Party for you," Yamamoto said with his usual grin.
Tsuna grinned back, "I'm looking forward to this."
Chrome smiled, remembering how good Yamamoto's father's food is, and bowed to him.
"Waaaaaaah! This goodbye is sooooo sad to the Extreme! But I'm not crying to the Extreme! *Sniff*" Ryohei cried, making everyone sweatdrop to this.
Tsuna laughed, "Ryohei-nii, I'll truly miss your 'Extreme'."
Chrome chuckled, Ryohei will never run out of 'Extreme'.
"Tsuna-Kun, Chrome-chan. Please don't forget to eat healthy, without a healthy body you can't carry on this..." Kyoko trailed off as she glanced to Tsuna's mother, who was also present, ".. [Teacher-Study-Programm]." Nana noticed Kyoko's glance and returned a smile to her.
Tsuna secretly compliments himself that he still could keep the mafia business away from his mother and turn to Kyoko with a soft voice, "I'll be off, Kyoko."
"Kyoko-chan, I-I will give my best!" Chrome replied with determination in her voice, Kyoko chuckled as she remembered the time when Chrome made food for the first time in her life, she really has improved a lot.
"Tsuna-san! Why was I the last one to get to know that you are leaving? And you even had a party yesterday! You owe me something! So be sure to come back! Chrome-chan! You better not steal my husband away!" Haru pointed at Chrome with a serious voice.
[Miura Haru, attends Midori High School, one of the toughest elite schools to get into in the contradicts with her upbeat and enthusiastic personality, as well as being known to be somewhat of an airhead. She has a crush on Tsuna since middle school. She also loves children and is usually the one to babysit Lambo and I-Pin]
Chrome was a bit taken aback at this statement, but totally caught off guard as Haru suddenly hugs her, "I'm just joking, I wish the best for you two...Please come back safely."
"Haru-chan..!" Chrome hugged her tightly back.
"Yes, I promise, Haru," Tsuna replied with a gentle smile, "I will make sure to make it up to you."
"Tsuna... Just don't capture too many hearts during your 'trip', okay?" Hana smirked at Tsuna's and Kyoko's confuse look towards her, "and Chrome, don't overwork yourself, rely on Tsuna if something worries you," she gave Chrome a word of advice as she knows her personality. Chrome nodded, though something she said to Tsuna was bothering her.
"I've made some snacks for your train travel, I hope I made enough for you two," Bianchi said as she handover a full picnic basket, making everyone worried, but Tsuna was happy, he noticed Bianchi bandaged fingers, she was working hard for this. It would be a waste to throw them away and thanks to her, he is somewhat immune against poison, though he won't give any of these snacks to Chrome.
"Gotta stay calm," Lambo calmly mumbled to himself. Everybody smiled at this little grown-up Lambo. Tsuna patted his head and whispering to his ear that he will come back with a souvenir for him, "I don't wanna any souvenirs, I don't want the two of you to go!" This made Tsuna hug him even tighter.
"Tsuna-nii! Don't worry about Lambo! I-pin will protect both Lambo and Maman! Chrome-nee, please make tons of friends over there." I-Pin said with a big smile. Tsuna gave her a big pat on her head and this time Chrome gave her a big hug, making it hard for both of them, not to cry.
"Tsuna-nii! Yesterday I ranked you, you will surely become famous over there," Fuuta said with a victory sign. Everybody around him sweatdropped, he didn't really need to rank that, Tsuna will surely making history there. Tsuna, on the other hand, was very relieved, he wasn't sure if he will become a good teacher, a bit of insurance don't hurt.
"Tsu-Kun, Chro-chan... I will write to you two every day! Don't you dare to not reply!" Kiriko showed them a big grin, "and I will make sure that our team will not disappoint you! I will make them work hard!" At this very moment the members of the Namimori High School soccer team, all of them, had a scary chill on their back.
"I will leave it to you, Kiriko," Tsuna gave her a high five. Chrome promised to make sure to have her cellphone always by her side.
"Kufufu~ my dear Chrome you better take care of Tsunayoshi's body, after all his body will be mine someday," Mukuro smirked. Chrome responded with a gentle and yet scary smile, obviously showing a, 'No, you won't take Boss body'.
"Tch, finally I won't see your faces every day now!" Ken said, tears welling up.
[Joshima Ken is a confident, animal-like member of Rokudo Mukuro's Kokuyo Gang and childhood ally of Mukuro. He likes to tease and belittle others, but he himself is very eccentric and over-confident. Though he acts very harshly towards Chrome in person, he is constantly worried about her well-being and happiness]
"Ignore him, Tsuna-Kun, Chrome... He is a stupid dog after all," Chikusa said, pushing up his glasses.
[Kakimoto Chikusa, he and Ken have been Mukuro's subordinates since childhood and they are extremely loyal to him. Unlike Ken, Chikusa rarely speaks and is mostly quiet. He talks only if necessary; though, he is often shown to argue with Ken and occasionally shows a sarcastic, mocking side towards him]
"What did you say, Kaki-pi?!" Ken glared at Chikusa who returned the glare.
"Ken, Chikusa...," Chrome started, getting their attention, "I'll be back...," she said with a gentle voice, making both of them blush as they are turning their head away from her.
"Still acting like a princess, I'm glad you are finally away from Mukuro-sama," M.M smirked, but the smirk quickly turned into a sad expression.
[M.M, is the other one of the only two female members of the Kokuyo Gang, she cares a lot about fashion and money and prefers to date rich men. M.M. can be blunt and has a short temper. Despite this, she does have a caring side. Especially towards Chrome]
Chrome smiled at her, "I will leave Mukuro-sama to you, don't let him do something stupid."
M.M made a defeated smile. "Your heart truly lies elsewhere, I guess Mukuro-sama is really just an important brother to you," she whispered silently, nobody could hear. She turned to Tsuna, "Oy, Sawada! If something ever happens to Chrome, I won't forgive you! Is that clear?"
Tsuna made a warm smile, the bonds between those Kokuyo members, are truly strong, "of course!"
"Herbivore... I will bite you to death, if you don't come back," Hibari made a clear statement. Tsuna made a knowing nod, they still to have settled their score. Lately, they often spar against each other, their score is 9 wins, 9 losses and 18 draws, neither of them reaches the 10th win yet.
"Tsuna, be sure to change your underwear daily! And spend your money wisely, I will sending money monthly, okay my dear?" Nana hugged her son tightly. "And make sure to take good care of Chrome-chan or I will be really angry with you."
"Of course, mother," Tsuna smiled, giving his mother a tight hug, "you don't have to worry, I'll make you proud."
"My boy is growing up so fast! This is so saaad," Nana cried.
"Hoho, your mother is really something, isn't she Tsunayoshi-kun?" The last person wanted to say his goodbye to Tsuna. It was none other than the Vongola Nono, Timoteo himself.
"I was really surprised, that you were suddenly in front of our door, 'Grandpa'" Tsuna chuckled. (Oh boy, you should have seen the reaction of the others, when they suddenly saw the Ninth in person.)
"Haha, I just can't miss this moment of my 'Grandson', I'm counting on you," Nono winked, "and once again, I'm sorry of this sudden decision".
Tsuna shook his head and smiled, putting his hand over his chest, a familiar gesture of the Vongola, "I won't fail."
Finally, the train was drawing near.
"It's time... Everyone, take care of yourself! I will see you later! And please send my regards to the others!" Tsuna made his signature smile.
"Bye, everyone...," Chrome waved the group the final goodbye, with a beautiful smile.
"We will see you guys in a year!" Yamamoto shouted.
"Good luck, to the EXTREME!" Ryohei also shouted with a very loud voice, cheering for them.
"Tsuna-nii! Chrome-nee! Come back safely!" Lambo cried.
"Tsuna-Kun, Chrome-chan... Please take care of each other," Kyoko smiled.
"Tsuna! It's time to go," Reborn reminded him.
"Understood," Tsuna said, turning the last time towards Reborn before the door closed, "Reborn, I will come back much stronger, I'll promise you this!"
Reborn made his favorite smirk, "bring it on, 'Dame-Tsuna'.
And with this, the train finally departed.
"Mahora Academy, huh? I guess a new chapter in my story is about to begin," Tsuna smiled, he couldn't wait for all the new faces he will meet.
When the train was out of the group sight, one after another left the station as most of them still need to prepare for school or others, like Reborn have something important to do, until Timoteo, Vongola Nono, was the only one left behind.
"...I'm thankful that you didn't interfere and accepted our proposal," Timoteo suddenly spoke when he was sure, that nobody in sight was beside him.
"You are still here, boy?" A cold voice replied, that even made the Vongola Nono shiver, "I do not know what you exactly mean."
"I guess it's just like you, but you can't just forget, you want to see 'them' again, am I right?" He asked further, knowing he won't be harmed by this voice.
"..."
"You still can't forgive yourself?" He finally asked.
After some time has passed, the voice finally talks to him one more time, the sadness in the voice could be clearly heard, "even if I do, I do not have the right to see 'them'. I only hope you 'two' know what you are doing. I promise, if this goes wrong, I will kill both of you."
Timoteo sighed as he finally could relax as the presence of the voice completely disappeared, "even though so many years have passed, it's still lingering in your mind, I hope someday you will be released from this pain and I just know 'she' wishes for the same... The truth can be hard, but I-, no we, believe that pain is also an important experience, it depends on how they will get up from this pain. We can only believe in their strength."
Lastly, he turned to the direction, where Tsuna's train departed, with a genuine smile and familiar pose, which Tsuna did awhile ago, "I hope, despite all of our hidden agenda, you will still have a lot of fun over there, just make sure that a path for the future of an eleventh Generation will be open. I wish you good luck, young Decimo."
