Chapter 4: Class 3-A
"Good morning.~" Negi Springfield entered the staff room of Mahora Academy with a slight depressive look on his face.
As usual the teachers were all very busy with their workload, however, as busy as they are, they still managed to greet Negi back, demonstrating the friendly atmosphere in the room.
"Good morning, Negi-kun. You don't look very good, something happened?" Shizuna greeted back her desk neighbor and noticed that Negi wasn't looking good.
"Shizuna-sensei! It just... Today's breakfast was... No nevermind," Negi shook his head repeatedly as he just wanted to forget this morning. Looking around, he noticed that his longtime good friend Takahata wasn't in the staff room to greet him, "...Huh? Where is Takamichi?"
"Takamichi-kun should be on the plane now, he will be in Egypt for a week due to work," Shizuna answered while organizing her paperwork.
"Ehh?! Egypt? Takamichi is really amazing." Negi was really amazed by Takamichi, he felt like his friend could do anything.
Shizuna chuckled, "since you took over Class 3-A from him, Takamichi-kun has a bit more freedom. Or maybe not, the Dean is sending him all over the place. Even during our 'Kyoto Field Trip', he was in Australia."
"Yea... I wish Takamichi was there..." Negi sighed, maybe if Takahata was with them in Kyoto, it wouldn't have been escalated like that. Negi knew he was still lacking as he barely could protect his students. Remembering these events again, made him really depressed. No! He shouldn't be depressed anymore, he needs to work a lot harder from now on. He even began to learn martial arts from one of his students.
At that very moment, the hecticness suddenly died down and the teacher's attention turned toward the door as two new people entered the room. You could tell that they were all curious about the two newcomers. Negi's face brightens up as he recognized the two, it was Tsuna and Chrome.
Tsuna noticed Negi's bright expression towards them and in return, he gave him a smiling wink as he and Chrome walk to the front where everyone in the room could clearly see them.
"Good morning. My name is Sawada Tsunayoshi and this is my assistant, Dokuro Chrome. I'm a newbie teacher, we are still inexperienced and probably make some mistakes, but I hope we can learn a lot from everyone here. It is a pleasure to work with you all. Please take care of us." Tsuna and Chrome bowed with a respectful gesture towards the teachers.
The teachers welcomed them with cheerful clapping, many were really impressed by their manner and charisma before the majority has no choice but to went back to their work as their schedules were tight.
"Welcome, Sawada-san, Dokuro-san." A very handsome young teacher walks towards them with a friendly smile. "My name is Seruhiko Minoru, it's also our pleasure to work with you."
[Seruhiko Minoru, is a bishonen teacher. He is also one of the secret mages at Mahora. He is often assigned the duty to secretly protect the students. However, according to his own words, he is not that fight-savvy. It's unknown if he hiding his strength or that he is really not that strong]
"Seruhiko! Go back to your work. You are still behind." A strict voice was aimed at Seruhiko. It was one of the elder teachers in Mahora: Nitta Genchiro.
[Nitta Genchiro, is one of the 'not-mages' teachers and is a rather mean teacher who makes sure students do not do anything idiotic. He is so strict that he always punishes the students who misbehave by making them sit in the seiza position for considerable periods of time. Due to this, the students of Mahora Academy have given him the nickname, 'Nitta the Ogre']
"Alright Nitta-san, I'm coming!" Seruhiko sighed but turned to Tsuna with an apologetic smile, "Sorry, Sawada-san, my duties are calling me."
Tsuna shook his head with an understanding expression, "you don't have to apologize, Seruhiko-sensei. I can see that you all have to work hard. I hope I can be more helpful in the future."
Seruhiko was a bit stunned, but it quickly formed into a small smile as he went back to his desk, "... I don't think you have to worry about that. See you later, Sawada-san, Dokuro-san."
Tsuna observed the room a bit longer. He could tell that about one-third of the staff in this room are mages, including Seruhiko he just met. They are mostly aware of him and Chrome. But like Takahata and Shizuna, they probably didn't know that they are from the Vongola Famiglia, it seems this detail wasn't that important for the Dean as he easily dropped it in front of the two teachers from yesterday, or he could trust the both of them with this information. One woman did catch his eye, he could feel that she was about as strong as Takahata. It's not like that she gives off a threatening vibe, more like a cautious one. He shouldn't get on her bad side.
"Tsuna-sensei, Dokuro-sensei! Good morning!" Negi enthusiastically went up to them. "Today is your first day, right? When it was my first day, I got r-really nervous! B-But I'm sure you are going to be alright! Class 3-A may be a bit strange at first, but they are all really nice girls! You don't have to be worry! And-"
It seems like Negi was the most nervous one here in the room. It was amusing how Negi wanted to lessen their burden. Since yesterday, Tsuna could see, that Negi really likes his students. There was a strong bond between them, though there are still a few, who are still not really sure about Negi. However, time should solve this unsureness. Negi may seem to be a naive child, but Tsuna can imagine that he will grow into an excellent adult in the future.
"Negi-sensei!" Tsuna stopped Negi with a chuckle, as it seems like he could talk forever, "I'm sure we don't have to be worry, however, before we come too late on our first day, do you mind if you can lead us to the classroom? We can continue our conversation on the way."
"Of course!" Negi accepted the request with a delighted expression.
-Mahora Academy/Classroom 3-A-
A normal day began in Mahora Academy, well not exactly normal for the students of Class 3-A... if they had a 'normal' day anyway.
[Mahora Girl's Jr. High, Class 3-A is considered one of the most diverse and rambunctious classes in Mahora Academy which is known for energetic students. The class contains a wide variety of character types, from the usual student-athletes, bookworms, and cheerleaders, as well as a kung fu master, a swordswoman, a ninja, an aspiring cook, an internet idol, a budding reporter, a ghost, a gynoid, two super-geniuses, and even a vampire]
However, today it's a different case as most of the students were actually very anxious as they were constantly watching between the clock, which is hanging above the blackboard, and the front door of their classroom. In the next few minutes, this class will be faced by two new teachers.
Normally this wouldn't be something that would make the infamous Class 3-A nervous, like the time when they were introduced to Negi who became their homeroom teacher a few months ago. Back then, however, the class didn't know the identity of such an adorable homeroom teacher, so they didn't really care. But this time they were introduced to the two new teachers beforehand as they'd met them yesterday and Class 3-A had to admit, that the two of them left a very strong impression on them.
"How about we use the 'Black-Board-Duster-Trap'? Like the one, we did to Negi-sensei?" Fuuka grinned mischievously.
"Eh? Onee-chan, I don't think we should do something like this again," her younger twin sister, Fumika, said in a worrisome tone, "what if Sawada-sensei will hate us?"
"Don't worry, it's just a welcome greeting and now help me," Fuuka assured her with her usual 'trust me' smile.
"Ugh... It's not like I can actually stop you from this, fine I'll help," Fumika gave up easily and went up to help her sister with her trap.
"You're not stopping them, Iinchou?" Asuna asked the class president, Ayaka, "where is your usual 'nice girl' act? Or is it only limited to Negi, 'Shouta-kon'(someone who likes younger boys)?"
The class president, Ayaka, retorted with a big angry vein over her head, "why you..! You shouldn't say anything with your old-man fetish! We all know you are eying on Takahata-Sensei!"
"Wha-!? Don't you dare..!" Asuna roared back, ready to take on the class president, but a gentle yet scary voice, not only stopped those two from charging each other but also managed to actually stun the whole class 3-A.
"Hai, hai! Both of you, calm down and stop your bickering, now it's not the time for that," to the surprise of the class, it was actually the usually gentle and friendly Konoka, who'd spoken with such a scary voice. Normally Konoka wouldn't mind them, the two of them always quarrel with each other, but that's because Asuna and Ayaka were actually best friends, though none of them would ever admit this, at least not publicly, but today Konoka was really odd, you could tell she was different from her usual self.
Asuna and Ayaka were really taken aback by Konoka as they quickly sat back on their seat without a word, obeying her immediately.
Especially Asuna noticed that something was off. Since yesterday, Konoka was acting very strange. After they'd met the two new teachers, Konoka seems to be distracted a lot, even making some mistakes on her usual delicious cooking, yesterday's dinner and today's breakfast weren't really edible. She shuddered a bit, remembering today's taste.
And it was not only her, but another person also wasn't in her right mind either. "Very strange," Asuna thought, glancing towards a certain swordswoman.
Ayaka turned to Asuna one last time, "I don't think a small prank will harm them and maybe this will make the class... less tense."
Asuna nodded, she understood what Ayaka meant, something was strange in this classroom. The usual energetic chaos wasn't there. You could tell that everyone in the room was a bit nervous, even if they're not showing it... most of them didn't realize it themselves, even the two twins, setting the traps right now were really anxious. She really wonders why they all felt like this, "this is really weird.. even I, can't shake this feeling off, totally different when Negi became our teacher... that reminds me, I should keep an eye on them, I wonder if they are making the same thing Negi 'did' back then..."
After the trap was complete and the bell began to ring, everyone in the class became silent, waiting for the two new teachers to come. No one dared to say a word or even made a move as they listen carefully to any sound near them. After some time has passed, they finally could hear several footsteps approaching the classroom.
"Tsuna-sensei, Dokuro-sensei, please wait here for a bit, I'll announce your arrival to the class," a familiar happy voice rang outside the room.
"Wait.. isn't that Negi-sensei's voice?" Fumika whispered to her older sister.
"Uh-oh!" Everyone in the class thought the exact same thing.
It was indeed Negi, who opened the door, "everyon-," before he could finish his sentence, he quickly realized this familiar position.
Tsuna, who was standing right behind Negi, noticed that a blackboard eraser was about to fall on Negi's head after he had opened the door, Tsuna was about to catch it, but he stopped himself at the last second after something strange is happening, the eraser actually stopped itself for a second in the midair. `Magic..!´ It's the first time he saw magic with his own eyes. He was very impressed, how fast Negi could react and wondered if he needs to cast a chant.
`Oh no! I reflexively used my magic again!´ Negi panicked as he released his spell immediately, making the stopped eraser in the air finally fall on his head, causing a lot of dust of chalk to float around his head.
"Ahaha *cough* You've got me there again,*cough*" Negi coughed a lot as he's getting some of the dust into his lungs, "but everyone, you shouldn-," before he could complete his sentence again, he remembered something too late: The prank didn't stop there! He tripped over a rope, splashed by a bucket of water, and got hit by several suction-cup arrows from all directions while rolling against the teacher's desk.
'Deja-Vu,' all of the girls thought with a big sweatdrop on their head, but they couldn't hold off their giggle and laugher. It was typical Negi.
"Negi-sensei! Are you alright?!" Ayaka was the first one to rush to her homeroom teacher, preparing some tissues to dry him off. Asuna and some of the students were right behind her.
"Geez, Negi, how could you fell for the same prank again?" Asuna sighed while whispering something only Negi could hear, "you even used the same magic! You should be more careful! But I guess... thanks to you, the class became more relaxed. Thanks, Negi."
"Huh?" Negi was wondering what Asuna meant, but she only shook her head and gave him a faint smile.
"Why are you here, Negi-sensei? We thought the new teachers are coming," Fuuka asked, while it was funny that Negi got caught in her traps again, she was a bit disappointed after all the traps were meant for the new teachers or maybe she was actually more like... relief.
"... We've met in the teacher's lounge and Negi-sensei was so friendly to show us the way to your classroom," Tsuna answered as he and Chrome entered the room, "of course, he never had expected for a greeting like this, then again it's not like this 'greeting' was actually meant for him, am I right?"
"...We are so sorry, Negi-sensei, Sawada-sensei, Dokuro-sensei," the class, especially Fumika apologized.
Tsuna could only give them an amused smile, "it seems like we won't have a boring time together. Now everyone, please take your seat, we will start our first lesson right away. Negi-sensei, you too please."
"Me too?" Negi pointed to himself with a confused look, to which Tsuna responded with a nod as he standing behind the teacher's desk, while Chrome pulled a chair out of nowhere for Negi to sit.
"While I said we begin our first lesson, it's more like we will use the next hours to introduce ourselves to each other. Name, age, club activity, likes, dislikes, and maybe your dream for the future should be enough for now. I'm sure with time we will get to know each other better, of course, you don't have to say everything about these aspects if you don't want to. Oh, and before I forget, any questions towards us will be answered after the introductions, for now, I really want to focus to get to know you all," Tsuna instructed.
"To show you an example I will start: My name is Sawada Tsunayoshi, but I prefer to be called Tsuna, then again... most of my friends are calling me as they pleased anyway. I'm 16 years old and was born in Namimori city, far east of Japan. Before I became your teacher, I was in the second year of Namimori High School, I was the captain of the Soccer Club. I like a lot of things, but most of all, my friends and family. For what I dislike... I don't have many things I dislike, but one for sure, I hate it when my friends get hurt," Tsuna's eyes became very serious on this sentence, "and for my dream... is to become a reliable person who everyone can be comfortable with."
Something about his Aura made the students of Class 3-A very calm. He is very different from all the teachers they had met, including Takahata and Negi. Speaking of them, Tsuna is more confident and his presence is much more powerful compared to the Negi they first met, however, Negi is much more reliable now, especially after their Kyoto-Trip. Tsuna is also more serious and gallant in the contrast to Takahata-sensei's easy and relaxed attitude.
"Chrome, can you introduce yourself, next?" Tsuna asked his partner to continue.
Chrome nodded as she steps forward and politely bowed to the class, "my name is Dokuro Chrome, I'm 15. I was also a second-year at Namimori High School... I was a member of the Libary Club. What I like, Boss, Mukuro-sama, Maman, everyone in 'Kokuyo' and all of the 'Famiglia'. Dislikes.. everyone who's threatening my Boss, even if it's Mukuro-sama... my dream is to protect everyone dear to me."
The class was first taken aback by how beautiful Chrome is. She seems to be the type who doesn't speak more than necessary. Her eyepatch makes her very mysterious but it suits her very well. They also wanted to know why she's calling Tsuna 'Boss'. And most of them wondered what a relationship they have. Lastly, some of the students felt a bit threaten by her for an unknown reason.
"Negi-Sensei, you turn now," Tsuna asked Negi to continue.
"Eh? M-me?" Negi was confused.
"Of course I want to know you too, Negi-Sensei," Tsuna gave him a big smile.
"Y-Yes, of course! M-my name is Negi Springfield, I am 10 years old and come from the back hills of Wales. I'm the English and homeroom teacher of Class 3-A. I like milk tea, studying and antiques, I also like my Onee-chan Nekane Springfield, Takamichi and of course everyone here in class 3-A," Negi began to introduce himself to Tsuna, while a lot of the girls squealing in the background, "what I dislike... I don't really have something I dislike...," he paused a bit, suddenly he felt a chill as Asuna was giving him a glare, "BATHS! I dislike taking a bath! ...and sleeping alone."
Tsuna's smile never fades away, Negi reminds him so much of Fuuta, he is sure that they would get along very well if they meet each other. As he thought before, Negi is a very kind-hearted and pure boy, and even though he is just a ten-year-old child, he shows a maturity far beyond his years.
"..For my dream," Negi hesitated to continue as he looks nervously to the class, which Tsuna caught on and stopped him.
"Thank you Negi-Sensei, this should be enough for now. Once again, I am looking forward to working with you."
Eh? Ah, yes! I'm also looking forward to working with you, Tsuna-sensei!" Negi quickly bowed 90 degrees to Tsuna.
Tsuna chuckled as he opened his class roster and turned towards his students, "so I will go by order and call you name by name, please stand up and introduce yourself as our example and remember, you don't need to tell everything if you don't feel like it. So let us begin, Class Student Number 1: Aisako Sayo.
"..."
"Sawada-sensei, there isn't a person with the name Aisako Sayo in the class," the class president Ayaka said to Tsuna.
Aisako Sayo, who IS actually in the class, looked down with a sad expression. But it can't be helped because after all, she is a ghost, who had no presence at all. She's been a spirit for 60 years, her 'seat' was always empty. People who tried to sit there, always felt a cold breeze and avoided it, eventually naming it: 'Seat that shouldn't sit on.
Kazumi, the class reporter, continued, "Sawada-sensei, you are probably confused why there is someone born in 1940 is in our class roster. We asked the same question to Takahata-sensei, but he only told us, that is something it had to be done and we don't need to worry."
"...I see." Tsuna looked towards the empty seat, something was off. Even yesterday, he clearly felt a faint presence, his intuition told him something was there. Maybe asking Takahata will answer this mystery, however, he had the feeling that this is something he needs to solve by himself.
Sayo was surprised, when Tsuna's eyes were intently staring directly at her, almost like he knew she was there. He had a thoughtful expression until he spoke again.
"I guess, her introduction will be postponed, for now, Student Number 2: Akashi Yuna, will start instead."
The way Tsuna continued made Sayo's heart pounded, it felt like he was telling this directly to her as he made a small smile as he moved on to Yuna. Could it be, that he had noticed her presence?
"That's me, I am Akashi Yuna, sweet 14. I'm in the Basketball Club. What I like, is a secret. I actually dislike bad clothing, like shirts hanging out or an overall sloppy lifestyle. Gosh if only dad wouldn't be like that, he is really no good without me. M-my dream.. that's also a secret, not that my dad has anything to do with it!"
Yuna seems to be an easygoing type and has a very cool attitude, but it is obvious that her dad has an important place in her heart.
"Seems like you really love your father, Akashi-san. Next, Student Number 3: Asakura Kazumi."
"The official camerawoman of Class 3-A! Asakura Kazumi! 14 years old. What do I like? My camera and a big scoop! I don't really have something I dislike, it's more like I'm not interested in anything but a big scoop. My dream... is to find the ULTRA SUPER HUGE SCOOP! By the way, Sawada-sensei, what is your relationship with Dokuro-Sensei?"
Kazumi could be a bit dangerous if he isn't careful around her. She seems to be the type who wouldn't give up until she gets what she wants.
"Questions will be asked afterward, Asakura-san. Next one, Student Number 4: Ayase Yue."
"...Ayase Yue, 14. Library Club. I like reading and drinking my juice boxes. I hate studying as they are pointless. Dream... I don't really have one, but something that isn't boring."
Yue seems to be very lazy, but his guts are telling him, that if she was interested in something, she would turn 180 degrees of this laziness.
"That was very simple, Ayase-san. Student Number 5: Izumi Ako."
"M-me. M-my name is I-Izumi Ako, n-nice to meet you. U-Uhm, I-I'm also 14 and the m-manager of the boy's Soccer Club, I'm also the health assistant of Minamoto-sensei. I-I like cute bandaids a-and doing t-the laundry. I d-dislikes b-blood and fights. My dream... I-I don't really know..."
It was obvious that Ako was a very timid person. Maybe he can help her to gain more confidence in time, after all, it also took him a while to find his own confidence.
"Thank you Izumi-san, you did great. Next, Student Number 6: Okouchi Akira."
"Here! My name is Okouchi Akira, 14 years old. I am in the Swimming Club. I like swimming and small pets. I dislike fights and people who criticize other people without knowing them. I did not really think about my dream yet."
Akira seems to be a very mature student, however, he likes her attitude. She is a person, who you can easily depend on.
"I see, I hope you can find something interesting, Okouchi-san. Student Number 7: Kakizaki Misa, please."
"Hai! Kakizaki Misa on the scene! Soon-to-be 15-year-old teenage girl! I'm the leader of Class 3-A Three-Member-Cheerleader Club, but also in the Chorus Club! I really love to shop, plums, and sing in a karaoke bar. I really don't like carbonated drinks. My dream is to have a happy married life!"
Misa is a very cheerful type, though he has the feeling, that she could be a bit troublesome if he let his guard down around her.
"Seems like someone knows what she wants to do. Next on the list, Student Number 8: Kagurazaki Asuna."
"Here, Kagurazaki Asuna. 15 years old. I'm in the Art Club. I like cool men, like T-Takahata-sensei *blush*. I dislike children! *glare at Negi* Well... I guess I don't really dislike them that much *her glare turned into a small smile*. My dream... I didn't really think so far ahead."
Asuna is a very honest type, though she does seem to be someone, who draws a lot of unintentional trouble to herself. He also noticed that she and Negi have a close relationship, watching how she helped Negi earlier. He also could feel that Asuna is currently observing him carefully.
"I'm glad that Negi-sensei has someone he can really depend on. Student Number 9: Kasuga Misora is the next one."
"Kasuga Misora, 15 years old. Track field-Club. Likes, Short-distance sprints. Dislikes, Staying still. Dreams, don't have one."
Misora seems to be very easy-going and has a tomboyish feeling around her, but he has the feeling that she is hiding something from the class, however, it's not like she was the only one.
"Well, that was quick. Now to a number which tied to me into an... interesting situation, Student Number 10: Karakuri Chachamaru."
"Yes. Karakuri Chachamaru, 2 years old. I'm in the Tea Ceremony Club and Go Club like my master. I like my master, to serve tea for others, feed cats and ...*glance to Negi*. I don't have anything I dislike. I don't have a dream.
He already noticed that Chachamaru is actually a humanoid machine, a very well-made one if you ignore certain parts of her body, you couldn't tell the difference. However, something about her is very different from all the machines he has met so far. Spanner and Irie would be excited to meet her. Seem like she was activated 2 years ago.
"Thank you, Karakuri-san. Next, Student Number 11: Kugimiya Madoka."
"Hai! My name is Kugimiya Madoka. Like Misa, I'm also in the 3-A Cheerleader Club. I'm also 14 years old. I like beef noodles, silver accessories, and western music. I really dislike playboys! I'm also one, who doesn't really have a dream yet."
Madoka seems to be one of the more serious types of the class, though she does have her playful side. Though, did she had a faint glare towards him when she told them her dislike?
"Alright... so, Student Number 12: Ku Fei."
"My turn-aru~ My name is Ku Fei, 14-aru. I'm in the Chinese Martial Arts Club-aru. I really like to train and fight against strong people-aru. I dislike... I don't really want to talk about this-aru *glancing towards Chao and Hakase with a deep sigh*. My dream is to become very strong-aru!"
Ku Fei actually reminds him a lot of Ryohei-nii, maybe because of their similar love for training and searching for strong opponents. And she seems to be using techniques similar to one of his certain teachers.
"An interesting dream. Next one... Student Number 13: Konoe Konoka."
"H-Hai! Konoka Kono- Oh no, I mean Konoe Konoka is my name, I'm 14 years old. I-I like, oh no, first, I'm in the Fortune-telling Club and also in the Library Club. I l-like Fortune-telling, cooking, and Se-chan. I-I dislike being separated... from you... eh? No, I mean I dislike being separated from my friends! My dream... *staring towards Tsuna* M-my dream..."
This is the girl who he has to protect. Though they had never met before, he could tell that she was acting very strange right now. He has so many questions just by looking at her. However, for now, he held himself back.
"It's ok, you don't need to push yourself further, Konok... Konoe-san. For now, calm yourself down. Moving on, Student Number 14: Saotome Haruna."
"Hehe, the name Saotome Haruna! 14 years old young! I'm in both the Manga and Libary Club! I like a lot of things, for example, tea parties or, well, hehe *glancing towards her classmates, especially Nodoka* - I dislike bugs and the deadlines for my mangas! My dream is... I guess I have a lot of dreams~!"
Haruna is a really bright person. though he notices that some of the students look a bit anxious at her, but not in a bad way, more like they need to be veeeery careful around her.
"Interesting, thank you Saotome-san. About halfway through, Student Number 15: Sakurazaki Setsuna."
"Y-Yes. I am number 15, Sakurazaki Setsuna. 14 y-years old. I'm in the Kendo C-club. I-I like Kendo and.. Uhm.. no that its! I dislike.. I'm sorry I can't say that.. My dream.. is to protect Ojou-sama forever."
Like Konoka, Setsuna also acts a bit strange, both of them weren't able to look into his eyes, he knew from the dean that Setsuna is Konoka's personal bodyguard and also her childhood friend. He also heard that Setsuna, at first, kept herself distant from Konoka, but during the events in Kyoto, they became closer again. Somehow hearing that made him really happy for no reason.
"Thank you, Sakurazaki-san. Student Number 16: Sasaki Makie."
"YES! I-I AM SASAKI MAKIE! 14 YEARS OLD! M-MY CLUB ACTIVITY IS GYMNASTIC! I-I R-REALLY LIKE R-RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS. I DISLIKE M-MEAN PEOPLE! M-MY DREAM IS T-TO WIN THE NATIONALS! Ah! I-I'm sorry for speaking out loud!"
Makie seems to be a person who has trouble controlling her emotions. She also seems to be very naive, however, he can tell that she is also a very hardworking girl, even if it doesn't seem like it.
"No need to apologize, Sasaki-san *Smile*. Student Number 17: Shiina Sakurako, your turn."
"Hai~~! I'm Shiina Sakurako, nice to meet you~ Like Misa and Madoka, I'm in the Cheerleader Club and I'm also in the Lacross Club~ I like Karaoke, cookies and my lovely cats~ I don't really have anything I dislike... And I also don't really have a dream for my future~."
Sakurako is someone who you can get easily get along with, reminds him a lot of Haru, well not exactly like Haru as Haru is more devoted.
"You are really cheerful, aren't you, Shiina-san? Next on the list, Student Number 18: Tatsumiya Mana."
"...Tatsumiya Mana, 14. Biathlon Club. Likes..., Darts, Billiard. Dislikes..., Okra, shrimps. Dreams... Don't have."
Even though she didn't say a lot, Tsuna could still tell that she is a very confident person. She also has a great poker face, due to his experience, he knew Mana is someone very complex.
"Short but effective, thank you, Tatsumiya-san. Now to Student Number 19: Chao Lingshen."
"*Smile* I am Chao Lingshen, 14 years old. I'm in many clubs, from Cooking to Material Art, please visit me sometimes, Tsuna-sensei *wink*. What I like is a secret, what I dislike is also a secret. And of course, that also means that my dream is a secret... at least for now *fufu*."
Chao is actually the most mysterious person here, well besides number 31. She doesn't seem to be a bad person, however, he has the feeling she is someone he should be aware of.
"A lot of secrets, hm, Lingshen-san? But that's fine, thank you *amuse smile*. Already on 20? We are making progress, Student Number 20: Nagase Kaede."
"Hoho, Nagase Kaede de-gozaru. I'm 14 and in the Strolling Club de-gozaru. I like pudding and also to relax de-gozaru. I dislike... truthfully frogs de-gozaru. My dream.. is to revive my family-tradition de-gozaru."
Kaede is really interesting. At first glance, she seems to be a bit laid off. However, he had the feeling that if he let his guard down even once, she would literally strike him from behind.
"Thank you, Nagase-san. Student Number 21: Naba Chizure."
"Yes. Nice to meet you, my name is Naba Chizure. I'm 14 and in the Astronomy Club. I like to help others or just to be with someone, recently though, for some reason I really take a big liking to the sky. What I dislike... to be lonely and also long-distance relationships. My dream.. that everyone has a happy life in the future."
Chizure is a very bright person, she's someone who would put everyone before herself. But his Hyper intuition is also warning him to be very careful around Chizure, he shouldn't upset her.
"A very beautiful dream, Naba-san. Hm, the next two are twins, would you mind if you introduce yourself together, Student Number 22: Narutaki Fuuka and Student Number 23: Narutaki Fumika?"
"No, we would be happy, well I am Narutaki Fuuka, the older one, 14 years old and also in the Strolling Club as Kaede-Nee! I like to prank people and sweet foods. I dislike boring things. My dream is to eat the biggest sweet food ever!"
"A-and I am Narutaki Fumika, the younger sibling, and like my sister also 14. Like Onee-chan and Kaede-san I'm in the Strolling club, but I'm also in the Beautification Committee. I also like sweet food and actually, I also like to clean, it makes me feel calm. I-I hate hairy and long things, like c-caterpillars! I-I want to marry a prince~"
Though their personality is very different from each other, he could tell that they really care for each other. Never underestimate the bonds between twins.
"Thanks, both of you, older and younger Narutaki-sans. Student Number 24: Hakase Saotome, please... Uhm, Saotome-san?"
"Huh? Oh! Is it my turn already? Sorry I was absorbed with something else. Hello, my name is Hakase Saotome, 14 years old, I'm mainly in the Robot Construction Research Society Club. I love to invent something or running some tests with Chao-san *glancing to Ku Fei with a sly smile* and I really hate it if I don't understand something. My dream is to perfect Chachamaru!"
He can see Spanner in her, they would make the perfect duo. Seems like she is the creator of Chachamaru.
"Just don't overwork yourself, Hakase-san. So, Student Number 25: Hasegawa Chisame."
"*Sigh* Here, Hasegawa Chisame, 14. Don't have and any interest in a Club. There is no reason to tell you my likes, same with my dislikes. My dream... I do have a dream, but I won't tell anyone about this."
Though Chisame may act a bit rude, however, he could tell that she isn't a bad person at all. Maybe with time, she will open her true self a bit more.
"Of course, I won't force you to tell me anything. Okay next, oh a very interesting name, Student Number 26: Evangeline Athanasia Katherine McDowell."
"*Smirk* It's alright to call me Evangeline. My age.. like the paper says, 14. Go and Tea ceremony are my club. What I like... I wonder... what I dislike? That's also a mystery to me. My long life dream... is maybe impossible..."
Evangeline, another mysterious student, seems to be the master of Chachamaru and he could tell that she is something more than the other students.
"Very interesting... Thank you Evangeline-san. Now, my favorite number, Student Number 27: Miyazaki Nodoka."
"H-hai! M-my name is Miyazaki Nodoka, I'm also 14. L-like Yue, Haruna, and Konoka-san, I'm in the Libary Club. I-I like books and... *glancing towards Negi*. Uhm, what I dislike..., well my dream *glance to Negi again/blush*."
She is like Ako a very shy type, but maybe this shy side of hers, is slowly fading away, she seems to be more determined, maybe Negi has something to do with.
"Seems like you already have someone set in your eyes. Your turn now, Student Number 28: Murakami Natsumi."
"Y-yes, Murakami Natsumi is my name. I'm 14 and in the Drama Club. I really love acting, but I'm really no-good and I also don't looks like an actress.,. I-I don't really have a dream."
Natsumi seems to have the least confidence in this class, however, she doesn't show it at all. It feels like she is wearing a very thick mask hiding her true feeling.
"It's okay, finding yourself is also a hard journey, I'm sure you will find the dream you want, Murakami-san. Now, our Class President, Student Number 29: Yukihiro Ayaka."
"My name is Yukihiro Ayaka, Class 3-A president and 14 years old. I'm in the Equestrian and Floral Club. I like...Well.. *Looking at Negi with sparkling eyes*. I dislike.. *glaring towards Asuna, who returns the glare*. My dream.. truthfully I didn't think about this yet."
Ayaka seems to be a very reliable person and also a good leader, however, maybe her personal emotions hinder her to see the big picture. She also seems to adore Negi. And her family name, Yukihiro, sounds very familiar to him.
"Okay, Thank you, Yukihiro-san. Almost finished, Student Number 30: Yotsuba Satsuki."
"Nice to meet you, my name is Yotsuba Satsuki, I am 14 years old. I'm in the cooking club. I love to cook for others and make their face happy. I don't really have anything I dislike. My dream is to have a nice restaurant like the one I'm currently cooking for."
Satsuki has a very gentle expression, she is full of warm energy. Somehow he got the feeling that she can neutralize everything she touches or says, the sky flame would really suit her.
"Lastly, Student Number 31: Zazie Rainyday."
"..."
"..."
"I see, your name is Zazie Rainyday, 14 years old. You are in the Juggling and Magic Club. For now, you won't tell me your likes, dislikes, and dream? Well, that's fine, I will wait, until you feel like to tell me more about you, Rainyday-san." Strange, somehow he could understand her, just by looking at her. As if she was sending him her message in his head. Somehow this was really magical.
"And with that... We're done with the introductions." Tsuna closed his class roster and glance over class 3-A one more time, this will be the people he will spend the next year with, it feels a bit strange, but it also excited him. "I must say, it's really overwhelming to get to know so many new people all of sudden. In the beginning, it will be probably a bit weird for us all, but I truly believe that relationships will always be formed with time. I'm really thankful for your cooperation... and now for the rest of the time, you probably have a lot of questions to ask. We will answer them as best as we can."
Without warning, of course, the class reporter Kazumi was the first one to raise her hand. "What is your relationship with Dokuro-sensei?"
"Chrome is someone very important to me. She is one of the people I can trust my life with." Tsuna answer sincerely and at the same time, he was really grateful to Chrome. The two of them had gone through a lot together, it's the same with his other 'Famiglia' member, they are his pride, he would do anything for them.
Chrome's face flushed a bit, she felt really happy that her Boss thought about her like this as she felt the same, she would do anything to protect him.
The girls in the class could tell that the two of them had a very strong bond, however, it didn't really answer Kazumi's question, or more like... they wanted to have a confirmation.
Konoka was the one who took the initiative as she couldn't wait anymore, "A-Are the two of you... t-together?"
"That's rather a really personal question, Konoe-san. However, we aren't like that," Tsuna felt a bit awkward about this question. It's not like that he isn't attracted to Chrome, however, due to his position as the future Decimo, his love life became very far in the background as his life became more dangerous.
Most of the girls were a bit surprised as they were sure that the two of them are together, especially because of their vibe. Some of the girls were unexpectedly relieved of this answer and now question themselves if they have a crush on him. Chrome, on the other hand, wasn't sure how she felt about this, she knows that her Boss doesn't see her like that and she is already happy enough just to stand by his side, but something back on her head is telling her that she is lying to herself.
"Do you also look for a partner like Negi-sensei?" Fumika was the next one to ask.
"Partner..?" Tsuna rose an eyebrow towards Negi.
"No no no! I-It's a misunderstanding! It's just something because I want to be a great Magi-" Negi quickly shut his mouth, after he felt an alarming glare from Asuna. "I mean, eh, oh no, forget what I just said! Or more like almost said!"
Tsuna sweatdropped a bit, Negi is clearly hiding something and almost blabbered it out loud. Tsuna noticed that most of the girls were clueless and the ones who know his secret were amused by his action, only Asuna was a bit angry towards Negi. "Well, a partner, huh? To answer your question, younger Narutaki-san. I do not search for a partner right now. Truthfully, I don't believe this will be something I will think for the next few years as my current position won't allow me for that."
The girls were confused about his statement, but something also told them not to pry for it anymore. The next question was from Haruna.
"Dokuro-Sensei, why are you referring Sawada-Sensei as Boss?"
"Boss is Boss." Chrome answered simply without any more details, making the girls sweatdrop.
Tsuna decided to explain, "well, I tried many times to make her call me Tsuna, but she seems to prefer to call me like that. In the end, It doesn't really bother me. Like I said, my friends, a calling me whatever they want."
Ku Fei then rose her hand, "Sawada-sensei, are you strong-aru?"
Tsuna could see the sparks in her eyes, it was obvious that she only wanted one answer, he couldn't help himself but to make a small smile and looking at her eyes with confidence, "I am strong."
With this simple answer, Ku Fei smiles ear to ear and gave him a confident look of herself.
"Uhm, Dokuro-sensei, do you like reading books?" Nodoka gathered her courage to ask her question after she found out that Chrome was also a Liberian.
Chrome look towards Nodoka with her head nodding, while bringing up a book out of nowhere, she is currently reading.
Nodoka widened her eyes, it was one of her favorites books, now she knows that Chrome and the Liberian club members will get along very well.
As the atmosphere became lighter, the Q&A became smooth, the girls and even Negi had a lot of questions, some were strange, some were humorous. Both Tsuna and Chrome gave their best to answer them, without giving them too much information. Most of the girls were beginning to loose up to them, however, there are some who were still unsure about them. Especially Konoka and Setsuna as both of them were more in the background and it seems they were also holding themselves back.
"Why did you became a teacher of THIS class?" Suddenly a voice from the very far background could be heard. It was Evangeline and her voice was very serious and full of suspicion.
Tsuna immediately knew that this will be the final question of the day and he also knows that she was looking for the truth and not this cover-up story with the [Teacher-Student-Programm]. He thought about how to answer her without telling the class the whole truth, at least not for now. A small smile appeared on Tsuna's face as he knows what to say, "To be honest, I don't know how this all will work out and I'm sure everyone in this room is feeling the same. However, not knowing the future make this all so much more interesting. Aren't you curious how we, 34 different individuals, will interact in the future with each other? This will surely make an unpredictable story... After all, I am your new History Teacher, aren't I?
The way he delivers this speech, made class 3-A pumped. Since Negi became their homeroom teacher, they already knew that something was special, but now with Tsuna and Chrome on board, something tells them that even greater things will await this Class.
Evangeline smirked at this answer to her question, she knew that he was avoiding her question, well she did expect that, unlike Negi, they won't easily drop their true purpose of being here. As for now, she will accept him, he seems to be very special and that made her curious. However, something about this boy made her feel strange and that makes him dangerous and she is sure that some of her classmates felt the same.
Tsuna was relieved that the first day went smoothly, there is still some mystery about this class, but for now, he will enjoy this new life, "Once again, I'm REALLY looking forward to work with you all, Class 3-A."
-To Be Continued-
Next Chapter: Determination
Author Note:
Wow, this Chapter was really hard to write. But I think I did well, minus all the grammatical mistakes I made. This is the fourth Chapter already... I wonder if you are still interested in my story, I know this is hard to read, but you guys did a great job coming so far. The next chapter will have a bit more action, but also a lot of interesting interaction.
I have some plans to add an Extra Chapter at the end in every two or three chapters. As the main story is more focused on Tsuna, I want the Extra Chapter to bring attention to the other characters that feel a bit short. The Extra Chapters will mostly tell about their view and perspective, it won't really affect the main story, however, they will give you a bit more information about the characters themselves, or even hidden background stories that would have been a bit unfit in the main story as they most likely destroy the flow. This chapter has an Extra Chapter, so feel free to comment if this is a good idea.
This is actually also a comeback from me as a writer, as my last update was about 2 1/2 years ago... I'm really sorry, but there were some stupid issues. I hope I can quickly release the next chapter soon. See you next time~
Extra Chapter: Dokuro Chrome
*Beep* *Beep* *Beep*
An alarm clock was ringing through a room. The room belonged to Chrome, the former Mist Guardian of the Vongola 10th Generation. There wasn't much inside the room, because she pretty much just move in.
*Yawn* "Good morning..." Chrome said to no one in particular as she turned off her alarm and slowly woke up from her new bed. She walked into the bathroom and freshen herself up. After she finished, she went down the stairs and walk to the kitchen, starting to prepare breakfast for herself and Tsuna, which she prefers to call 'Boss'. This is the third day since they arrived at Mahora Academy.
"Boss should be soon finished... I should be able to finish in time when he returns." She already knew that Tsuna woke up earlier to jog, it became a routine for him since he accepted his position as the Decimo. And thanks to her partner Maleficient, Tsuna already found the perfect route for him in Mahora Academy. The route shouldn't take him longer than an hour.
As Chrome prepared for breakfast, she suddenly couldn't help but began to feel lonely in this new empty house. The Villa is really beautiful and very spacious, many would be envious of her.
She barely remembers how she live when she was still using her real name 'Nagi'. Mukuro saved her life from the brink of death after her mother and step-father abandon her when she had a fatal accident and losing her internal organs. Mukuro used his mysterious illusions to replace her organs and gave her a new name, Dokuro Chrome, to cast her past self away.
With her new identity, she began to live in an old run-down amusement park, the former hideout of the Kokuyo Gang: 'Kokuyo Land'. Sure, it wasn't fancy at all, but she was so much happier than the life she had prior to the time with her parents. Many people assumed that Mukuro and his people are only using her, but it didn't really matter to her, she felt needed, and spending time with them, she quickly understood the true bond between them. They seem to be cold outside, but inside Kokuyo, it's undeniably warm.
Her life changed drastically, due to her new connection with Mukuro, she soon met Tsuna and the Vongola Famiglia. When she first met Tsuna, he emits an aura of greatness, someone who could change the world. Thinking back, Tsuna probably wasn't aware of it or maybe it was just his true nature. He was also the one who immediately trusted her, even though they had every right to be suspicious after their first encounter with her master, Mukuro. She wondered if that was the reason why she gave him a kiss on the cheek as she never had done that to someone before and after.
She became the Mist Guardian of Tsuna's Generation, or more like a stand-in because her master Mukuro was prisoned by the Vindice. Mukuro is able to switch places with her, which often saved her life, however, this also uses up a lot of his power.
[The Vindice is the masked guards who protect the laws of the Mafia world. Those who defy their laws are said to be arrested without hesitation and are doomed to spend the rest of their lives in an inescapable prison known as the Vindice Prison.]
Being the Mist Guardian, she had a lot of adventures, but one fight with the first generation Mist guardian, Daemon Spade, changed her life once again.
[Daemon Spade was the first generation Mist Guardian of the Vongola Famiglia. He eventually betrayed Vongola Primo.]
Daemon is able to possess people similar to her master, Mukuro, using them as his vessel to interact with reality to keep existing for generations and continue using this ability to possess the body for years as his temporary vessel. However, unlike Mukuro, Daemon Spade was able to possess a body for extended periods of time. He eventually successfully posses the body of her master, which was able to give him monstrous power. However, after a long battle, her Boss was able to defeat him once for all. The Vindice released her master from their prison due to his efforts in helping to defeat Daemon Spade. Of course, it made her happy that her master was finally free, however, at the same time she was also afraid that she was now useless to him. Then she remembered the day when Tsuna was suddenly in 'Kokuyo Land'.
-Flashback: Her New Family-
"I knew it!" Tsuna got angry after he entered the rather cold 'Kokuyo Land'.
"What are you doing here, Vongola?" Mukuro asked curiously.
"To take you guys with me!" Tsuna said, grabbing both Mukuro's and Chrome's arms.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Ken glared towards the mafia boss. Chigusa and M.M were silently watching from the sideline, preparing to attack.
"Hm~ Are you finally trying to get your revenge for our first encounter? Did you finally awoke your true colors?" Mukuro smirked.
"Of course not, this is old stories. Well, it IS true that you guys were really nasty back then. But I know that I can trust you now, Mukuro." Tsuna was shocked that Mukuro even suggests something like that. "No, from today on, you will live all with me! Until we find something better than this!"
"..."
"What Did You Just Say?" Mukuro narrowed his eyes, Ken's eyes widened, Chigusa glasses fell off, M.M was speechless and Chrome didn't know how to react at all.
"You heard me right, and from tomorrow on, you all will also attending Namimori Middle school. Reborn made sure to transfer you all," Tsuna said with a smile.
"WHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!"
And with that months flies quickly, at first it was strange that Tsuna literally dragged the gang to his home: the 'Sawada Household'. It was unfamiliar for them to live with all those lively people, especially for her master. It was the first time she saw him being flustered, in particular, his interaction with Tsuna's mother. Surprisingly, Ken and Chigusa on the other hand, blend in immediately, while M.M quickly became close with Bianchi, even calling her Ane-sama. To be honest, she thinks that her 'Boss' knew that the 'Kokuyo Gang' needed something like this, maybe, even though they will never admit this, that they all wanted to experience a warm family as their past life wasn't a happy one and the 'Sawada Household' gave them this possibility. However, this happiness for them didn't last long, everything will eventually end.
"Are you sure, you guys wanted to leave? Will you be really alright?" Tsuna asked as the 'Kokuyo Gang' was about to leave the 'Sawada Household'.
"We could manage our life BEFORE we even met you," Mukuro said in an amused tone.
"But still..." Tsuna looked a bit sadly.
"Don't worry about us Tsuna-kun, we will manage," Chigusa said bowing to him, you could clearly see how their attitude changed after they lived together for a while. "Thank you for taking care of us."
"Tch, don't you dare to cry, just because we are leaving, Tsuna!" Ken said while looking away, you could already hear the sound of his whimper.
"*Sigh* It.. was a new experience... However, we all knew that we can't continue this longer, Sawada." Even M.M made a sad expression.
"Why not? I know you found something, but ca-" Tsuna tried once again to change their minds.
"Tsunayoshi-kun!" Mukuro stopped him with a shaking head. Tsuna could tell that Mukuro will not change his mind no matter what, with that Tsuna gave a defeated sigh, but smiled at them nonetheless. Mukuro returned the smile, "Let's go."
Chrome looked down, she was truly sad, it was fun living with her 'Boss' family, she learned a lot from 'Maman'. How to cook or where you need to pay attention when they were shopping together. But if it's her master's decision, she can't go against it and was ready to leave.
However, Mukuro stopped her, "Oya, my dear Chrome... Who said, that we'll take you with us? As you are aware, I'm already free, I don't need your body anymore."
"M-Mukuro-sama..?" Chrome froze, her mind was falling apart. Her master words hurt so much, this is what she was always afraid of all the time, now that she is useless to them, they will abandon her. She didn't believe that they would throw her away, but something in the back of her head was always telling her, that she is just an ordinary girl, without Mukuro's power she was nothing, just someone who dragged them down.
"Mukuro!" Tsuna was shocked, how could Mukuro say that to Chrome? He should know how much she loves him, saying that to her, will break her. He was about to interfere, but Ken, Chigusa, and M.M stopped him from advancing, they knew Tsuna would be not happy about this. They told him everything was alright and he should trust Mukuro with this. Tsuna was unsure about this, but their eyes told him differently, they were sad but also full of resolve.
Mukuro looks at Chrome with sincere eyes, "Chrome... You are different from us. I know your past was very similar to ours... However, you don't have... 'dirt' on your hands. During the past months, I never saw you this happy.. no, I never saw 'US' all this happy before. Sometimes I had the thought, to just forget everything and start from a new. But.. it's impossible, we can't forget. You are aware of our past and we know you don't care about it and will still try to follow us."
Mukuro then turned to Tsuna, "I don't regret anything, they all deserve their deaths. We lived through hell and this world became insignificant to us... We wanted to destroy it!" he was clenching his fist, you could feel his anger, but this anger quickly faded away. "...And then we had our first encounter, Tsunayoshi-kun. Never have I met such an individual like you before. It was the first time I had such a defeat... Time then had passed and It felt like the world is welcoming us again, no, it was YOU, who open his arm and accepted us. And that's why I leave Chrome to you. I realized that you can give her much more than I ever could."
"And my dear Chrome, you are misunderstanding something, just because we aren't living together anymore, doesn't mean that you aren't a member of the 'Kokuyo Gang'. You are still one of my possession. Kufufu." Mukuro caressed her hair with a smirk. Ken, Chigusa, and M.M surrounded her with their warm smile.
"Mukuro-sama... ! Everyone..!" Chrome realizing that Mukuro and the others didn't abandon her, couldn't stop herself from sobbing.
"Mukuro... I-I understand I will watch over Chrome, " Tsuna was really touched by their bond. He walks in front of Mukuro and gave him a genuine smile, but all of sudden his fist went across Mukuro's face with lightning speed and sent Mukuro flying, shocking everyone on the scene.
"I know Chrome will easily forgive you and I understand you wanted the best for her, however, this is something you really deserve." Tsuna, now feeling good, offer his hand to Mukuro.
"Kufufu, you are truly on a different level. Geez, at least hold back a bit, or do you want me to die and take over Chrome once again." Mukuro accepted Tsuna's hand and rubbing the pain from his cheek.
"You know, you deserve this." Ken snickered from behind, which in turn emits a dark Aura from Mukuro.
"Idiot." Chigusa sighed as he can see that Ken will be tortured by Mukuro later.
"To be honest, I'm really glad that I won't see your princess attitude anymore..." M.M give off her usual tsundere attitude, "but... I also know there will be this big gap. Just take care okay?"
Chrome who now controlled her emotions better, gave M.M a tight hug, at first it startled M.M, it was not her style, however, she quickly gave in and returned the hug, her tears were welling up.
"So enough of all of these, we will be going now. I really don't want this to become more awkward. And I really want to avoid your mother, Tsunayoshi-kun," Mukuro sighed, urging to leave quickly as possible, it was true that Tsunayoshi was one kind he never met before, however, his mother is another kind he had never EVER met before.
Tsuna chuckled, "Alright, guys, M.M take care of yourselves."
The Kokuyo Gang nodded to him with a genuine smile, they truly became closer. They were about to leave the gate of the house, but Mukuro turned to Tsuna one last time.
"As I said, I don't regret my actions, however, there is ONE I do regret." And with this, they left the 'Sawada Household'.
Tsuna knew exactly who he meant, but this was something that may never be ever forgiven.
Tsuna then turned to Chrome, "I know this will a bit hard for you, but I promise that I won't make you unhappy, me, I-pin, Mother, Bianchi, Lambo, and Fuuta. Mukuro and the others will regret, that they left our house!"
"Yes 'Boss'." Chrome had small tears in her eyes.
"Why this sad goodbye...? Don't you guys seeing each other in school tomorrow?" Fuuta, who observed from the inside of the Sawada House, pointed this out.
"..."
-Flashback end-
-Mahora Academy/Tsuna and Chrome New Resident, Present Time-
In the next years, Chrome became really close to her 'Boss' (much to Gokudera's dismay), and even though she is still very loyal to Mukuro, she will refuse every order that will hurt Tsuna(not like he would order something like that anyway). Also during the period, the loss of her organs was replaced, thanks to Vongola Nono, Doctor Shamal, and even the Arcobaleno Verde, so Mukuro didn't need to make illusions for her anymore. Chrome is now more independent.
[Doctor Shamal is a crazy womanizer who hits on every cute female he sees, even underage girls. Though often unsuccessful, he is always seen hitting on one woman and then instantly moving on to flirt with the next woman that passes by him. Putting aside his normal attitude, Shamal happens to be a notorious assassin called "Trident Shamal" and is also a renowned doctor. Despite seeming flighty and lewd, Shamal can be serious and cunning when the situation calls for it]
[Verde is the holder of the Lightning Arcobaleno Pacifier. He has the same curse as Reborn and also has the appearance of a baby. He is truly a mad scientist, he doesn't seem to care about anything except his experiments, even going as far as to destroy anyone who would resist. He is truly a genius. However, he will repay debts that he owes]
Living in the 'Sawada Household' was very chaotic, almost every day was energetic, explosive, and cheerful. And it will be even more chaotic when the other Guardians came to visit. She does like quiet places, like the library, and her new home in Mahora is one of these, however, during the past few years, she learned that she didn't need a nice place to live, all she needed are the PEOPLE she cares to have a happy life.
Looking at the clock, it was already 6:30 AM, her 'Boss' should be back soon as they have to go in an hour.
Mahora Academy. The new mission, Reborn gave Tsuna. When she first heard about this, she wasn't really surprised, that magic exists. After all, she and Mukuro's' Dying Will Flame' of Mist could be also called magic. She had the feeling this had even a connection.
When Mukuro and the others first left her, in the beginning, it did hurt a lot, but in the end, they could easily meet up and hang out with each other, the only difference was their home. Now, it doesn't bother her anymore if they weren't seeing each other for a while, even for weeks. However, when she heard that her 'Boss' will be away for a year, something inside her was clutching her heart tightly. She was truly relieved when he decided to take her as his partner, the heavy feeling from her chest went away.
Class 3-A. It feels weird to be around so many girls younger than her. Yesterday, they were introducing to each other, all of them were unique of their own. But Chrome made some notes that she should be really careful of some of them. In her 'dangerous' list were Evangeline, Mana, Zazie, and especially Chao. Girls she will observe, for now, include Konoka, Setsuna, Asuna, Chachamaru, Kaede, Ku Fei, Kazumi, Nodoka, and Yue. The other girls seem to be normal, however, Chizure, Ayaka, Makie, Haruna, Satsuki, and Ako were lightly marked by her.
"Chrome! You are awake and you even made breakfast?" Tsuna entered their house and had a stunned expression on his face.
"Welcome back!" Chrome immediately went up with a smile.
"I'm sorry that you have to wait, something interesting came up on today's jogging route." Tsuna apologies, while thinking of the event from earlier.
"It's alright, let's dig in before it becomes cold, Boss."
After they finished their breakfast, Tsuna was insisting to do the dishes (in the end they did it together) and was amazed by Chrome's cooking once again, "that was amazing! I'm truly happy that you are with me, to be honest, I'm not sure what I would have done without you. I'm glad I chose you to come with me."
Chrome's face flushed, she knew she wasn't as good as his mother, but this compliment made her really happy. You should know, before meeting Mukuro and the rest, she had never cooked in her life. Kyoko and Haru helped her in the beginning, however, as a beginner it didn't work well, she is still learning from them from time to time. And after she began to live in the 'Sawada Household', 'Maman' taught her how to cook.
"Thank you, 'Boss'" she couldn't help herself, but to lean in and gave him a kiss on his cheek.
Tsuna was surprised by her action, the kiss from the Ring Battle flashed in his mind. It's been a while and he wondered why she did it again after years, however, Chrome's smile never faded, it seems like she didn't care and the kiss was a natural act for her.
"I-I guess we should changes our clothes and prepare to go." Tsuna quickly said and left for his room, it's been a while he felt this embarrassment as a blush appeared on his face.
"Yes, 'Boss'," Chrome hummed, following him and somewhat clueless of her action.
-To Be Continued-
