Goodbye

Japan

How could this happen?

Ten minutes ago, Tsuna lay in his warm and comfortable bed, dreaming about the good old days in Italy – his true home. So why is he sitting in the kitchen with Reborn and Adriana, eating breakfast with them now? Ah, yes. Because of him. Tsuna was woken up. Reborn-style.

If it were a normal wake-up call at least. But, no. When you were woken up by Reborn it has something to do with electro shocks. It is a wonder that he is still alive after all the years with this sadistic guy around.

Tsuna tried to pick up some food of his plate with the chopsticks, but they always fall out of his hand. Than he tried it again. And again. He tried it sixth times, however, it seemed that the food doesn't want to be eaten.

"Arg", growled the brunet. This was getting ridiculous.

He could speak Japanese. He could behave like a Japanese. Then why was it impossible to eat with chopsticks without food being found on the floor? Patience, Tsuna. Maybe in a few days. I mean you're here up till now only one week.

Back to the task at hand. An idea formed in his head. Tsuna took one of the chopsticks in his right hand and hold it like a dagger, successfully stabbing his food. A victorious smile was on his lips. Now he could eat. Why the other two didn't have the same problems with this as well, Tsuna didn't know.

As he bit down there was only wood. His food has disappeared. There was actually only one person that would steel something from him. Tsuna turned his head to his left. He was right.

"Reborn! Give me back my food!"

But Reborn didn't even look at him. "Than try to get it back, Dame-Tsuna. Naturally, before I eat it. It's not my problem that you can't protect your things. Be more vigilant next time."

"You're right, Reborn. You should be more vigilant next time."

The food has disappeared again. Only this time from Reborn's chopsticks to Adriana's, who ate it quickly. Tsuna giggled. You could practically see the vein on Reborn's forehead. It was good that Reborn was robbed, too, but it was bad that Adriana ate the food and not Tsuna.

"Remember, who taught you all this. You're hundred years to early to win against me, sweetheart.", said Adriana to Reborn and poked him with her chopsticks.

Oh oh. Now Reborn was irritated. And when Reborn is irritated it never ends good. A topic change is needed.

"Say, Reborn.", began Tsuna. "Do you think school will be okay? Maybe we can make new friends on our first day?" Friends, who you don't try to kill us and vice versa.

Reborn looked up from his food. "I'm sure you will find some new people on your first day."

"Really? Thanks, Rebo…", Tsuna shut his mouth. Stop, what does he mean by 'you'? Not 'us'? Don't tell me… "Wait! What do you mean by 'you'?"

Reborn didn't looked him in the eyes. Almost like he's guilty. That was a rare moment.

The brunet turned to Adriana. "Is it a job?" Adriana was one of the top assassins. It was not a rarity that she went away for a few days. Sometimes, Reborn came with her. Only Tsuna was not allowed to come, because it was too "dangerous". It was always too dangerous. As if he didn't know this already.

"I want to come with you. I mean you also trained me."

"I'm sorry, Tsuna. But not this time. I try to find the people, who want to get rid of us. It's only a trace. Don't ruin your first school day because of this.", said Adriana.

That's not fair. I can help, too.

Reborn interrupted his thoughts. "If you hurry, I'm coming with you to the school." There was this warm feeling as Tsuna saw Reborn smiling at him. Quickly he ran up to his room and took his bag.

"I'm ready!", screamed the brunet.

The school in Namimori was a great building. All the different schools shared this one building. Around the campus was a wall with a gate. Tsuna and Reborn were late. And that on the first day of school. Not a good impression.

As they wanted to go through the gate, they were stopped by a boy with black hair.

"You're late, herbivore," said the boy, who seemed to come out of nothing. On no. A second Reborn.

"Maybe we should apologize?", muttered Tsuna. But Reborn ignored him in favor of the glaring contest with the other kid.

One moment all was normal, but in the next moment they both stood there in battle-mode. Reborn with a gun and the boy with tonfas. "I bite you to death." Tsuna sighed.

"Stand behind me, Tsuna." But Tsuna wasn't there anymore. The brunet ran pass the kid, muttering "sorry" and went into school.

The black-haired kid smirked at him. There will be revenge, Dame-Tsuna.

Tsuna knew that Reborn will be angry with him, but he had other problems right now. He didn't know where his classroom was. The older students only laughed at him, if he asked.

He wanted to cry. School was a bad idea after all.

Somebody tapped him on the shoulder. It was a boy with short blue hair and brown eyes. "I've heard you asking the senpai something. I'm searching for the same room."

"Oh, then we can search together." The boy smiled at him. "Your Japanese sounds a bit forced."

"I know. That's because I lived almost all my life in Italy, but I was born in Japan. And you?"

"My dad owns a sushi shop here. Maybe you can come visit another time. And do you know what? When I'm older I will be a famous baseball player." Now Tsuna smiled. "Really? Cool! Then good luck."

After five minutes they stood before their room. Thank God, the teacher wasn't there. Their classmates talked about how great the school will be. There were only two seats next to each other in the second line free.

"By the way. I'm Yamamoto Takeshi."

"Sawada Tsunayoshi." They both smiled at each other.

Maybe school wasn't so bad after all.

When Tsuna opened the door to his house he didn't expected to see Adriana there. With a case.

"Tsuna.", Adriana began. "I found something today. But to check it I must go for a few weeks. Reborn will take care of you."

"But Reborn's only two years older then me", Tsuna wanted to say, but was interrupted by a evil aura. Reborn stood behind Adriana.

"I will miss you two. And I love you like you're my own children." She hugged them. "Goodbye."

"Goodbye.", cried Tsuna. But why does it feel like a farewell?
