AN: PEOPLE! I'M BACK! Crawling from the depths of despair that is University essays, your favourite author has made a thriumphant return. During the time I was not writing this, I was having some really nice discussions with some of the readers. Many of them have given me some nice ideas. So either they are there in this story or will be there in the future chapters. The reason this chapter is a bit long is... because you will love it. Many people have also asked me about the political scenario in this story. I have given a small hint here and there, but I will upload an entire factfile on WTF is going on in the world in this story.
To the American readers. Please don't try to track me while assembling your weapons to shoot me. The references I have given to the Pacific Theatre of World War 2 in this story is just pure fiction. Pearl Harbour was bad and unfortunate, even after 77 years. So please forgive me if you are offended by it. This story is for purely entertainment purposes only. I do not target any group or country for its actions.
Now to reply to comments.
To 'rozielrie'- Well duh. When the Great Hitman Reborn makes his grand appearance, the children of Hogwarts will simply start crying (So will Tsuna). Of course, Kyouya will terrorize the ANBU, That's his job. To terrorize people with his infamous, "I will bite you to death."
To 'foxchick1'- Thank you.
To ' '- Here it is, enjoy.
To 'Shiho-Akemi'- Thank you very much.
To 'Tsukiko K'- Now why did the Hat place Tsuna in Gryffindor, well you will know about it soon. The last thing the Black's will do is think that Tsuna is an 'idiotic Gryffindor'. Don't worry, Tatsuya Shiba and Masaki Ichijou are not the only ones who will be mentioned. The only thing Tsuna has to do is to prevent the Black's from falling prey to Voldie's charms (He is still human at this point).

Chapter 8
After the Welcome Feast, 1st September, En-route to Gryffindor Tower
"Man, just what is up with the new Defense teacher?" Remus asked the group while making their way to Gryffindor Tower.
"An outright terrifying person who can make you commit suicide just by looking into your eyes." Tsuna answered.
"Wait. You know him?!" James and Sirius asked, surprised.
"He's family." Tsuna replied. "My Italian cousin. The Sawada Clan's roots are in Italy, you know."
The group entered the Gryffindor common room through the portrait of the Fat Lady and got comfortable in the couches in the corner of the room.
"This is our area. No one will disturb us, unless it's important." James explained.
"So did you know your cousin will be teaching here?" Peter asked.
"He did mention that he was going to have a long term job here in the UK. I thought it was one of his jobs as a Hit-wizard or something. I had no clue he was gonna teach. I only came to know just as we were about to pull into Hogsmeade Station." Tsuna explained, while smoothly lying.
"So do you know what should we do in his class?" Remus asked.
"Don't do anything on your own. Just follow his instructions to the letter. If he tells you to jump, you jump. If he tells you to jump out the window and fall to your death, you do that. Believe me, no one has ever survived disobeying Xanxus. Even within the Family, Xanxus holds a very important position." Tsuna explained seriously. The five boys fell into silence for a while after that, just observing the fire cackling.
"Hey, there's Frank." James suddenly said. "He's the Gryffindor Boys' Prefect. Evans is the Girls' Prefect." He explained excitedly. "Hey Frank!" He called out.
A tall boy wearing the Gryffindor robes came to their place. Tsuna noticed that the boy had some muscle on him. 'Probably trains physically.' Tsuna thought. He had short-cropped hair and an angular jaw. A sharp nose and black eyes that had a hint of mischief and responsibility in them. 'Wow, what an antithesis.' Tsuna could also tell that the bloke in front of him was strong. Strong for a Sixth-Year student who has never seen any live combat in his entire life, that is.
"Hey guys." Frank said. "And hello and welcome to Gryffindor House, Sawada. I'm one of the prefects of Gryffindor House, Frank Longbottom." Frank introduced while extending his hand to Tsuna
"Tsuna, please. It's a pleasure to meet you as well Longbottom." Tsuna replied while taking Frank's offered hand for a firm handshake.
"Then you may call me Frank as well. You sure do have a very firm handshake." Frank complimented.
"Thanks."
"Show off." Sirius muttered under his breath.
"I would be careful what I would say Black. Lest you want to scrub every toilet in Hogwarts without magic." Frank warned with a cheeky grin.
"You wouldn't." Sirius replied in mock-horror.
"Nah, I wouldn't." Frank conceded. "Though it would be really hilarious." He added immediately.
"I heard you are the Captain of Gryffindor's Quidditch Team this year?" James asked.
"Yeah. But I can't find a good Seeker. I heard Regulus Black is going to become the Slytherin Team's Seeker. He was a reserve last year and only played a single game against Hufflepuff. Apparently, Flint really like his game and put him on the starting line-up for this year." Frank explained.
"Not good. Reggie is really good on a broom and his reflexes are top-notch. I'm telling this from experience. We have a very tall order this year." Sirius replied.
"I wanna sign up." Tsuna said.
"What?" The three members of the Gryffindor team asked.
"I said, I wanna sign up." Tsuna said again. "This seems like fun anyway."
"Not to discourage you but how will I know you are good on the broom?" Frank asked.
The reply to Frank's question was simply Tsuna materializing (a handy trick learnt from the Reborn School of Materializing-Things-From-Nowhere, a sister school to the Prometheus School of Running Away From Things) a hot cup of Espresso and the latest issue of Quidditch Monthly that was released just two days ago.
"Read the cover story." Tsuna simply said while sipping on his cup of Espresso.
The boys started reading through the story. Soon all of their jaws were dropping and their eyes were bulging as they continued reading the story.
The cover story was about the U-17 Quidditch World Cup held in India two months ago. It covered every match with absolute detail. However, the final match of the tournament was what got the most coverage. It was between Japan U-17 and India U-17 held in Mumbai, the financial capital of the country and the most popular city. The Indian Prime Minister and the Indian Minister of Magic, a member of the Indian PM's Cabinet, jointly opened the match. Japan and India were very evenly matched and the Japanese Seeker caught the snitch at a time when things were starting to look really bad for the Japanese team. All in all a very exciting match with both teams giving their all. Japan, the winning team, was presented with the championship trophy by the President of the Fédération Internationale de Quidditch Association, in the historical grounds of the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The stadium was converted into a Quidditch Pitch for the tournament.
"Well shit." Sirius mumbled. "Frank, I think we just found our seeker."
"Yeah… But for the sake of formality, I will still have you go through the selection trials. That okay?" Frank asked Tsuna.
"Yep. I'm all cool with it." Tsuna replied as he finished his fourth cup of Espresso.
"Looks like I have just used up my lifetime of luck by getting you in the Gryffindor Quidditch Team, Tsuna. Oh well, considering you are the seeker who propelled Japan to victory in the U-17 World Cup, you might be really expensive." Frank said with a grin. "I better make sure the firsties are not shitting themselves. See you guys later." Frank said before leaving the group.
"Hey, Tsuna. Are you planning on going professional in Quidditch? You probably might have received a bunch of offers." Sirius asked.
"Me, go professional?" Tsuna asked. At everyone's nods he simply answered, "Fuck no."
"Oh." Sirius said disappointedly. Before they could ask why, a gentle coughing interrupted them. Tsuna turned around to see Lily Evans and two other girls with her. One girl was fair skinned with straight dark hair and blue eyes. The other girl was petite with wavy brown hair and warm brown eyes. Tsuna cleared his throat and addressed them.
"How may I help you ladies?" Tsuna asked while giving the three girls a courteous bow.
"Oh Lils, I already like him." The blue-eyed girl said.
"Hush, Marls." The brown-eyed girl chided. "You'll scare him."
"Scare me? How interesting." Tsuna said with a challenging smirk. The amount of people who could scare the living daylights out of him were very limited after all (*Cough* Reborn *Cough*).
"Just ignore them. You are Sawada, right? My name is Lily Evans and I am the female Gryffindor House Prefect. The blue-eyed one is Marlene McKinnon and the brown-eyed one is Alice Prince." Lily said while introducing herself and her friends.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Evans, Ms. McKinnon and Ms. Prince." Tsuna said. "Please, just call me Tsuna. Was there something you required of me?"
"Oh no. I just didn't introduce myself back on the train. So I thought now would be the best time to introduce myself." Lily replied. "And please just call me Lily."
"I really like your hair. It looks so fluffy. And I simply love the way it is spiked up and everything." Marlene commented.
"For crying out loud, McKinnon. It's hair, not much variety in it." Sirius gave a weak grumble and a pout.
"Oh hello there, Sirius. I'm sorry, I did not even register your existence until just now. What with good looking transfer students and everything?" Marlene said with a smile that completely said that she was looking down on Sirius. As his pout grew she continued by saying, "I can see you're still pouting because I refused to go to Hogsmeade with you."
"Me? With you? Yeah right, that's old news! You missed the opportunity to go out with someone as devilishly handsome as me! Your fault!" Sirius stated in a haughty manner, though Tsuna could see that it was an act. The way he was avoiding eye contact and the exaggerated way of speaking. 'Oh… Something is going on over here… Kufufufufu. Great, now I'm pulling a Mukurou.'
"Deny it as much as you want but my offer still remains. If you can keep you wand from other cauldrons then I'll think about it." Marlene said with a sexy smile.
Lily spluttered.
"Is she always that crass?" Tsuna asked.
"Yeah. No wonder Sirius likes her." James said with a grin.
"I fucking don't!" Sirius denied.
"Yes you do. Toodles, honey." Marlene said enticingly and walked away while exaggerating the sway of her hips.
Sirius just groaned and sunk further into the chair.
"I better go as well. It was nice to meet you Tsuna." Lily said with a smile. "Oh and you have to tell me what is going on between you and Athena." She added in a low voice.
"Ciao ciao. And there is nothing going on between us. She's just a friend I made a few days ago." Tsuna replied.
After Lily left, Tsuna, who had a mischievous smile on his face, simply said, "You're in looooooooooove. *pfft*" The way he said it would remind the readers of a certain blue cat with wings who is the best friend of a certain hotheaded pink haired (Hey, it's salmon!) fire dragon slayer who is a part of a team that consisted of himself, a cool ice guy, a busty blonde, a 12 year old sky dragon slayer and a redhead knight all of whom are part of a certain #1 magical guild in the Kingdom of Fiore.
"For fuck's sake, I'm not!" Sirius shouted. And just like that the first night in Gryffindor Tower ended.
7:00 AM, 2nd September, 20XX, 6th Year Boys' Dormitory, Gryffindor Tower, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Many boys in the 6th year dormitory of Gryffindor House were just rising from their slumber. Of course, it would take a while for them to get their bearings and remember that they were back at Hogwarts. The Marauders were no exceptions. A while after everyone had got their act together; they started to go to the bathrooms to freshen up. A certain (and our favorite) transfer student though, still had the curtains covering up his bed.
'Probably still getting used to the time difference.' Remus thought. He decided to be a good friend and wake Tsuna up. The moment he pulled the curtains to call him out though, he immediately put it back.
"I did not just see that! I did not just see that! I did not just see that! Someone please tell me I did not just see that!" Remus started chanting loudly in fear.
"Moony, what's wrong?" Sirius asked in a worried tone, the other two members of the Marauders behind him. Many other boys in the dorm also saw the commotion and started to make their way towards the four boys.
Remus' answer to Sirius was just some random gibberish and pointing towards Tsuna's bed.
Sirius and James made their way towards Tsuna's bed and pulled the curtains. Exactly two seconds later they pulled it back to its former place as well.
"W-Wormy?" James stuttered a few moments later.
"Y-Yes?" Peter squeaked.
"P-Please call Professor McGonagall. Th-This is an emergency."
Peter immediately ran to Professor McGonagall's quarters, while the other three boys kept the curious people of the dorm away from Tsuna's bed.
Ten minutes later saw Professor McGonagall entering the dorm. She was followed by a few other children of various years. Among them were Lily Evans, Alice Prince and Marlene McKinnon. All of them had come to see what the fuss was about.
"What is it now? Not even 24 hours and you have already caused some trouble." Professor McGonagall said, while narrowing her eyes at the Marauders.
"P-Professor, I swear. This time it was not us. This thing is way above our caliber." Sirius tried explaining to his Head of House.
"I will be the judge of that, Mr. Black." McGonagall replied while making her way towards the curtains. She pulled the entire curtain in one fell swoop revealing what was going on behind it.
Tsunayoshi Sawada was snuggly wrapped in his bed sheets and was lightly snoring. That was quite normal and nobody paid attention to it. What everyone were paying attention to was where or rather what Tsuna was using as a pillow.
At the place where a pillow was supposed to be, there was a massive Asiatic Lion or as it was scientifically called, Panthera Leo Persica. McGonagall quickly deduced that it weighed approximately 200 kilograms or 440 lbs. It had a length of 3 meters. It also had a developed mane and a bushy tail that was hanging at the side of the bed. Its fur was light brown in color with a few scars here and there all over its body. However, the most beautiful and captivating feature of the lion was the flaming mane and the flaming bushy tail. It also had something similar to a visor on its head.
While everyone were either admiring or inching away from the majestic beast, Tsuna opened his eyes to see that half of Gryffindor Tower was staring at him. He looked around himself but couldn't see why they were so shell-shocked. So he just asked them.
"Good morning. What's up?" Tsuna greeted the crew in front of him.
It was Professor McGonagall who snapped out of her daze first. Therefore she was the one who asked, "Mr. Sawada, why is there a lion on your bed sleeping without a care in the world?"
"A lion? What are you…?" Tsuna half-finished his sentence when he felt the familiar warmth behind him. "Oh. No wonder it was so warm. Professor, Natsu is a cat. A big cat, but still a cat."
"No no no Mr. Sawada. That is a lion. It can't be a cat." Professor McGonagall replied but Tsuna wasn't paying attention as he was now waking 'Natsu' up.
"Hey, wake up you dozy cat. It's morning. How the hell did you get out of the trunk anyway?" Tsuna said while shaking Natsu.
Mr. Sawada, what are you doing?!" Professor McGonagall asked in a frightened tone. "It could be aggressive!"
"I'm waking him up. He is really lazy." Tsuna replied while still shaking the 'cat'. "Don't worry. He won't harm anyone."
Before McGonagall could say anything else, Natsu woke up to reveal a beautiful pair of amber eyes. He got up from his position and started observing whether these humans surrounding him were any threat to his master/partner/friend/father. He made sure to reveal his fangs and start growling. After determining that they are no threat he simply ignored them and stretched his joints and yawn. While doing so, he mistakenly let out a very loud roar. The roar was so loud that it could be heard all the way to the Hufflepuff Common Room near the kitchens and the Slytherin Common Room in the dungeons. Even Professor Dumbledore who was just sorting out some work in the Headmaster's office heard it. His familiar, Fawkes, giving a happy trill in reply. At Ravenclaw Tower, Lina, who was taking a shower, only said one thing, "Oh, Jesus Christ. Not even 24 hours…" In his quarters, Xanxus was going through the newspaper (Just what kind of trashy and shitty newspaper is this Daily Prophet?) when he heard the loud roar. He simply smirked, while Bester; his liger gave a growl and bared his fangs (A lions' way of smirking).
Back in Gryffindor Tower, every single person other than Tsuna were absolutely terrified. Moony, the werewolf within Remus shocked him by giving out a scared whine. Padfoot, Sirius' animagus form was also scared. Prongs, James' animagus just wanted to hightail it out of there. Prongs easily recognized a carnivore when he saw one. Wormtail, Peter's animagus was so terrified that neither could move in absolute fear. Professor McGonagall's tabby cat animagus surprised her by bowing in respect towards the lion and Tsuna. Every other student was just inches away from panicking. Well, that was until Tsuna spoke.
"Really? The first thing you do in the morning is shout 'GOOD MORNING, VIETNAM!' like Robin Williams (God rest his soul)?" Tsuna asked.
"Gao." Came the deep rumble of a reply from Natsu, the lion, who was giving his partner the infamous 'puppy eyes'. ["That was an amazing movie! And Robin Williams was an amazing artist!" Basically.]
"Hm. Fair enough. Robin Williams was a brilliant artist and that was a masterpiece of a movie." Tsuna replied. "Oh well, enough talk. Gotta get ready." Tsuna said while getting out of his bed to reveal himself wearing just a pair of boxers, which had target marks drawn on it, while giving everyone a view of his 'too-toned-to-perfection-upper-body'.
'Shit.' Tsuna realized the moment he felt many girls staring at his body like a piece of meat.
"Hey, Tsuna. Where did you get all those scars? And what's up with those tattoos on your shoulders?" Lily asked after she got out of her stupor. She had to admit, the new transfer student had one hell of a body. The scars and tattoos further appealing it.
"Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokusho Butai." Tsuna simply replied while pointing to the red spiral tattoo on his left shoulder. "This is one is of an Ouroboros. A dragon or snake eating its own tail." Tsuna said while pointing to the black tattoo on his right shoulder.
"Mr. Sawada, where did you get those scars? Especially that brutal X-shaped scar on your chest." McGonagall asked seriously. It was her job to make sure every student of her House was safe.
"Ah… Guess it will be better if you don't know." Tsuna cryptically said before turning back to Natsu. "Stay here and be good. I'll come back in 30-45 minutes with your breakfast." Tsuna ordered Natsu while going inside his trunk. Natsu got out of the bed and sat down in front of Tsuna's trunk while still being vigilant in front of these humans. His partner may trust them, but they would have to earn his trust.
"Well, I guess I will have to speak to Professor Dumbledore about the lion. The rest of you, go back to what you were doing. Just stay away from Mr. Sawada's trunk for now. Breakfast will start in an hour." Professor McGonagall ordered.
Everyone nodded and returned to their tasks though they were still shaken and unnerved by the morning's events and the penetrating stare of a certain lion in the dormitory.
40 minutes later, Tsuna came out of the trunk wearing his uniform, and in his hands was a plate with a lot of juicy barbequed steaks in it, which were giving off a very delicious smell. Tsuna set the plate down in front of Natsu who immediately dug into it with gusto. Tsuna himself sat on his bed and decided to wait for his 'cat' to finish breakfast while he went through his emails on his phone.
Tsuna's uniform was simply a variation of his Mahoutokoro uniform. Instead of Green and White with Black borders, it was replaced with Red and Black with Gold borders. The crest of Gryffindor House replaced the crest of the First Division of Mahoutokoro on the left side of his chest. The Hogwarts' Court of Arms replacing Mahoutokoro's School Emblem on the right side of his chest. His shirt was a plain dark grey shirt with a black and red striped tie. The uniform reminded Tsuna of Mahoutokoro's Third Division uniforms. Under his long coat was his pair of CAD's placed in his shoulder holsters and his Desert Eagle placed in a holster hooked to his belt behind him.
10 minutes later, Natsu finished his breakfast and polished the plate clean. Tsuna dumped the plate through the open trunk, closed the lid and locked it with his Sky Flames. Now, only he could open it. After making sure everything was locked up properly, Tsuna made his way to the Great Hall with Natsu in tow. He had made sure to memorize the main routes of Hogwarts beforehand. To his surprise, however, he found the Marauders, Frank, Alice, Lily and Marlene in the common room.
"Hello there. What're you guys doing?" Tsuna asked the group.
"We were waiting for you." Alice said. "We thought you may need some help navigating the castle. It really is tricky."
"Oh. Thank you very much. Guess I will take you up on your offer." Tsuna replied.
"Um, Tsuna. Will that lion also be coming?" Peter asked while hiding behind James. Who was hiding behind Sirius, who was hiding behind Remus who was hiding behind Frank, who was hiding behind the couch. The girls were hiding behind the other couch the moment they saw the lion.
"Yep. He's coming. Don't worry, he won't bite. He just had his breakfast. He will be fine until lunch. Plus, he does know how to hunt and he won't hurt children." Tsuna explained. "So, how do I go to the Great Hall again?"
With a bit of assurance, everyone came out of their hiding places and started to go to the Great Hall.
Great Hall. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
"So what classes are you taking?" Sirius asked Tsuna as the group just settled in the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall.
"Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions, Transfiguration, Ancient Runes, Advanced Arithmancy, Care of Magical Creatures and Alchemy." Tsuna replied while making his Earl Grey tea.
"Dang, that's a lot. You sure you can keep up with so many subjects?" Remus asked.
"The only subject I'm worried about is DADA. That is because it will be Xanxus teaching us." Tsuna said. "Oh hey, Lina. Good morning."
"Tsuna. Good morning." Angelina Kudou Shields, the transfer student from the United States, replied. "Natsu! Come and give Big Sis a hug."
Natsu didn't have to be told twice as he bounded towards Lina and started licking her face all the while Lina just laughed. After giving her enough licks he got off her. At Tsuna's invitation she sat down on the Gryffindor table where Natsu decided to put his head on her lap, all the while she stroked his flaming mane.
"Wait. The two of you know each other?" James asked. Everyone in the Hall were trying to listen in.
"Yep. The first time we met though, we were trying to kill each other." Tsuna replied.
"Wh-Why were you trying to kill each other?" Frank asked nervously.
"Ah… just like that. You know, two psychopaths meet on a field assignment in Mexico City and end up blowing up three blocks, just because they didn't like the look in the other's eyes and other kinds of shenanigans." Lina replied with morbid humor with Tsuna nodding as if he were a sage.
"You got one thing wrong though. I am not just a psychopath. I am a homicidal sociopath…" Tsuna trailed off with an evil grin.
"With my number!" Lina finished with a grin of her own.
"Exactly!"
'We've got some dangerous people in here!' Every student and teacher present in the Great Hall thought. At the Staff table, Xanxus just rolled his eyes and went back to his breakfast. A shame, the food here couldn't compare to Lussuria's, Mrs. Sawada's or any of the Vongola chefs' cooking. In the Slytherin table, Athena had a smile on her face. Though she didn't know why, her chest was constricting whenever she saw Tsuna and the American transfer student talk with smiles on their face. That and the thoughts of putting Ms. Shields through the most torturous curses that would make the Cruciatus curse feel like tickles. Her thoughts were cut short as she saw Dumbledore approach the group sitting at the Gryffindor table.
"Mr. Sawada." The ancient headmaster called out to Tsuna. Twinkling blue eyes in full blast.
"Headmaster Dumbledore." Tsuna replied with a bow.
"If you do not mind, may I address the elephant or should I say, the lion in the room?" Dumbledore asked.
Of course, Tsuna understood the wordplay over here. 'Clever geezer.' Tsuna thought.
"Well I would not mind sir. Please fire away."
"Mr. Sawada, lions are not acceptable pets in Hogwarts." Dumbledore stated.
"Well sir, lions are not acceptable pets in Mahoutokoro or Ilvermorny either. Lions are not acceptable pets anywhere in the world." Tsuna replied with a smirk.
"Indeed. Therefore, I have to ask for you to have your lion surrendered to the proper authorities before it either harms you or any other student." Dumbledore said.
"First of all, Professor, the Hogwarts acceptance letter stated that I am allowed to bring in a toad, an owl or a cat as a pet. The letter did not specify any species. Natsu is a lion and falls under the 'cat' family. So do normal household cats, tigers, ligers and even the now extinct sabers. Second of all, Natsu is not my 'pet'. Far from it. Natsu is my 'Familiar'. We bonded when we I was just four years old and Natsu was just a cute little lion cub (He is still cute). Unfortunately, your school rules have not given any specification about familiars. Furthermore, me and Natsu have a relationship that even transcends simple trust. It is not something that can be put in words. Both of us have been through many battles and trials to just simply 'trust' each other." Tsuna explained while easily slicing and dicing Dumbledore's words by using the school rules and bonds between a wizard and a familiar. "Of course, you do have an idea what I am talking about, considering that beautiful phoenix that is sitting over there."
Everyone in the Great Hall were simply stunned in silence. The Gryffindors and Hufflepuffs were shocked at how a transfer student simply talked back and shut down the argument of Aldus Dumbledore. The Ravenclaws were also intrigued on how he had managed to shut the Headmaster up. The Slytherins on the other hand, were absolutely impressed. They expected him to just bowl over and somehow cry his way into Dumbledore's 'oh-so-golden' heart. Dumbledore would then allow the lion, only because he was in Gryffindor. Instead, he used clear arguments and fully exploited all the loopholes in the School Charter. It was quite a ruthless tactic. The Slytherins respect for the Japanese transfer student only grew after hearing his next words.
"One more thing, Professor Dumbledore. I do not like it if Natsu and me are separated for long periods of time. It makes us… restless. However, try to separate us by force and you will be welcomed into a new world. A world full of absolute pain and suffering. The last clown who tried to that… Well, let's just say, Tokyo Metropolitan Police found him a few miles away in the deep end of Tokyo Bay. Or what was left of him. Funnily enough, they found him wearing cement shoes and had his hands tied behind his back with heavy steel shackles. I wonder why?"
There. There it was. A student openly threatening one of the strongest wizards in the entire Wizarding World. For some reason, not a single student or teacher present in the Great Hall doubted his claim (Xanxus didn't count. He knew exactly what chaos and destruction the Heir of the Strongest Wizarding Family in the Far East and the Strongest Crime Family in Italy was capable of). It was like, there was a power within Tsunayoshi Sawada. A power that could topple governments, start or end wars, with just a single word or a wave of a hand. Not that they were wrong, considering his background.
Even Dumbledore was astounded. The look in the young man's eyes was, simply frightening, to say the least. Also, were his eyes always amber? Even after defeating Gellert, the young man's eyes in front of him told him that the legendary duel he had with Gellert Grindelwald would seem like a child's play once he was through. Seeing no way out, Dumbledore decided to take the best option available.
"Very well, Mr. Sawada. The lion can stay. However, as the Headmaster of this school, it is my duty to make sure all of the students are protected. Therefore-"
"Be at ease, Professor." Tsuna cut in. "Natsu will not harm anyone. I take care of his food, so he wouldn't even make any incursions in the kitchens. At the time I am not able to provide for him, Natsu is capable of hunting. He will not harm a single student in this school. That is unless someone is stupid enough to piss him off. If that happens, well, sorry, that fool will become fair game." Tsuna explained.
"Very well, Mr. Sawada. I apologize for disturbing your breakfast. Please do have an amazing year at Hogwarts." Dumbledore said before walking away.
"Bye bye." Tsuna called out.
"You are a sick fiend." Lina said, after everything settled down and the usual hubbub of activity resumed. "You openly threatened the guy who took down the magical equivalent of Hitler."
"Thank you." Tsuna replied. "I admit he is strong. But come on, Lina. You and me both know there is someone else much, much stronger than him."
"Ah… Yes. Commander-General Genryusai Shikeguni Yamamoto. The man who single-handedly decimated the US Naval Fleet, that was 50 ships strong at Midway Islands. Two days later, the United States surrendered and the Japanese won the Pacific Theatre of World War 2." Lina recounted.
"Don't forget he was the one who persuaded the Japanese High Command to delay the attack on Pearl Harbor, until almost every ship of the US Western Naval Fleet was present. The fact that it was the United States that declared war first, gave the Japanese the perfect excuse to conduct a pre-emptive strike and severely weaken the Western Naval Fleet of the US Navy." Tsuna reminded.
"True. That is why the STARS Unit was formed after the war. To prevent something like that happening in the future." Lina replied.
Their conversation was interrupted by Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick. Professor Flitwick, gave Lina her timetable before heading over to the Ravenclaw table to distribute the timetables of the other members. Professor McGonagall was obviously not approaching them because of the lion. After Tsuna gave her a reassuring smile, she approached the group, but still wary.
"Welcome to Gryffindor House, Mr. Sawada. I hope you and Ms. Shields are not influenced by these miscreants." She said. "Both of your marks were by far the best I have ever seen, keep up the good work."
"You wound us, Professor. We're the most nicest and lovable people you will ever meet." Sirius said in mock outrage.
"You are a reprobate." McGonagall replied but everyone could see her mouth twitching upwards. "The only lovable thing about this situation is that you will be out of here in two years. Now that's a day I cannot wait for."
"Ouch. That hurt." Sirius said dramatically while clutching his chest. Tsuna, Lina and Natsu just rolled their eyes.
"For Merlin's sake, just go to class." McGonagall commanded.
"Professor, are we supposed to have Charms with all the four houses?" Remus asked while looking in his timetable.
"Oh right, I forgot to mention. Half of the Gryffindor 6th years will be doing classes with the 6th years of the other houses. It is a new rule being implemented starting from this year. Also the length of your lectures has also been increased. Just look at the timetable and go to your classes." McGonagall explained, before walking away.
"Alright. Let's go. Where's the Charms classroom again?" Tsuna asked.
"I haven't finished my breakfast yet." Sirius replied.
"You should have thought about that before flirting with Professor McGonagall." Tsuna shot back, before grabbing Sirius at the behind of his collar and pulling him towards the doors of the Great Hall.
"Hey! Hey! What are you doing?" Sirius asked in a panicked voice. Everyone noticed the monstrous grip of Tsuna and how Sirius just couldn't wiggle free, no matter how much he tried.
"Dragging you to class, and no, I am in no mood to let you go. I suggest you have a nice romance with the floor in the time we take to reach the Charms Classroom." Tsuna replied, his monstrous grip still in full strength.
"Experience gained from dragging dead bodies?" Lina asked. Tsuna replied with a casual shrug.
"Do you have Charms as well?" Tsuna asked.
"Yep."
"So you, McGonagall and the floor? Really Sirius?" Marlene asked with a raised eyebrow
"Will you buzz off McKinnon? Not interested."
"Really, because I want to buy some new underwear. I thought maybe you can give me some advice." Marlene replied while pulling her skirt a bit upwards to give Sirius a 'better view'.
"For crying out loud! Not interested!" Sirius said with a massive blush on his face.
"Oh, he's very interested." Tsuna said. "Sirius pull yourself together, you're drooling. I'm pretty sure you're liking the view of McKinnon's panties from where you are, but still, let's have some decency shall we?"
"I will be decent if you stop dragging me on the floor." Sirius growled.
"Wah Wah."
"Hey Tsuna." Lily greeted him while completely ignoring Sirius. "Looking forward to your first class?"
"The class? Not so much." Tsuna replied. "The professor? Yes. Very."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, Filius Flitwick is quite famous in the Far East as well. Everyone knows he is a Charms Master and a former Dueling Champion. Let's just say, I really love polishing my skills by battling those who are stronger than me. It always reminds me that the world is a really big place and that strong people can come from anywhere." Tsuna explained with a small smile. "What is your favorite class?"
"Charms and Potions." Lily replied. "What about you?"
"Anything other than Divination. I have an absolute hatred against that thing." Tsuna said with disgust. "Let's just say that other than Divination, I got nothing but O's in my OWLS."
"No way!"
"Yes way."
Charms Classroom. 3rd Floor. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Soon enough, the group found themselves taking their seats in the Charms classroom. Tsuna found himself sitting between Lina and Athena. Well, who was he to complain. Just as he turned towards Athena to tell her hi, he was subjected to a massive killing intent emanating from the female Slytherin Prefect, who was also glaring at him like a predator. Tsuna really didn't know what did he do, but he knew he fucked up in some way. That and his intuition telling him that there was a new name on the list of people who could scare the living daylights out of him.
"Um, hi?" Tsuna said uneasily.
"Well hello there, Gryffindor's newest Golden Boy." Athena said with as much venom in her voice as she could muster. "I see you have already settled with your new best friends. Settled so much, that you could not even take some time of your oh, so 'important' schedule to just say hi, could you?"
"I-I am so sorry." Tsuna apologized earnestly while tilting his head in apology. "I didn't mean to offend you." He looked at her while unconsciously activating the infamous 'puppy eyes' look.
The look of rage on Athena's face had settled down to a small pout. 'It kinda looks cute on her.' Tsuna thought. He didn't notice that his cheeks were faintly dusted pink
"W-well, as long as you understand." Athena said while looking the other way. 'How could he look so cute?!' She screamed in her mind.
Of course, Lina easily caught on what was going on and who the girl was. She had to admit the other girl was surely pretty. The aristocratic features on her face further accentuating her beauty. Also, a classic tsundere (not exactly, but kinda). Naruto's information had been spot on. Oh, she was going to have so much fun with this one.
"Oh my! Tsuna, how is it on the name of God's green Earth do you know someone so pretty?" Lina asked with a look of shock (a fake one though, Tsuna knew). "How about introducing us?" The smile on her face was seriously ticking Tsuna off, as the tick marks on his head was a nice indication of it.
"Right, of course." Tsuna said while reigning in his temper. "Lina, this is Ms. Athena Black. Athena, this is Angelina Kudou Shields. She's an idiot."
"Hey!"
"It's a pleasure Ms. Black. Please, just call me Lina." Lina said while extending her hand to Athena. Athena grasped her hand and Lina easily noted the strong grip and the cold eyes.
"Pleasure." Athena replied in a straight monotone and cold voice.
'I wonder why?' Lina thought. But then it hit her. 'Does she-? Ha ha ha ha ha ha! No way! Does she really think that? Ha ha ha ha ha! Oh, this is so hilarious!'
At that time, the Marauders and Frank who were sitting behind the three were sharing conspiring grins. Sirius tapped Tsuna on the shoulder. When Tsuna turned around he saw the five boys and three girls wearing the same teasing grins on their faces. Tsuna's reply to that was just him simply taking off James' glasses and then… jabbing the five boys in their eyes with his fingers. He did it so quickly that it looked like as if he jabbed their eyes all at once. The five boys were now holding their eyes in pain. Of course, Tsuna would never hurt women, so he just settled to glaring at them, while the three girls giggled at his expense.
"Alright class, settle down." Professor Flitwick squeaked as he entered the room.
Flitwick looked exactly like how he was described. Of course, Tsuna had heard that Flitwick was half-goblin, but who was he to judge the man's parentage. Tsuna could easily tell that even if he was short, Flitwick could still pack a punch if and whenever required.
Before anything else could happen, Flitwick felt a heavy and warm breath behind him. Turning around, he came face to face with Natsu, who was observing the short professor with his amber eyes.
"Um, Mr. Sawada? Wh-Why is your lion so close to me?" Flitwick asked nervously.
"Don't worry Professor. If he isn't growling and giving you a front row view of his sharp teeth, it means he hasn't decided whether to eat you or not." Tsuna replied in an easy going manner.
"Is that supposed to reassure me?" Flitwick squeaked. While still keeping the lion in his sights. "Uh… good kitty." He almost fainted when he saw Natsu licking his lips.
"No sir, it is not supposed to reassure you at all." Tsuna replied with an absolutely straight voice while snorting at the professor's kitty comment. Once he saw Natsu licking his lips, he knew Natsu was taking the prank a bit too far. "Natsu. Please allow the good Professor to start his class. The prank is going a bit too far."
Natsu immediately put his head down in disappointment and went to the corner of the room and sat down, looking all majestic. Just like a King.
"I apologize for his behavior, Professor. Natsu likes playing pranks, every time he meets new people. Don't worry sir, he kinda likes you." Tsuna said with a cheeky grin.
"I-I see. Is that supposed to be good?"
"Well, normally he would just gobble you up. Thinking you were a mid-morning snack or something." Tsuna said with a casual shrug. "I'm just kidding, Professor." Tsuna said seriously, while looking at the Professor's frightened face.
Flitwick took a few deep breaths and composed himself. Ignoring the lion in the corner of the room, he began the class.
"Today we are going to recap the spells we learnt last year." Flitwick addressed the students. "We will begin with the Aguamenti charm and then move from there."
Sirius already had his wand out and said, "Aguamenti!" Since he didn't control his power properly, a jet of water erupted from his wand and sending him flying.
"I will call you up to do it, Mr. Black." Flitwick sighed. "You fired prematurely."
"Probably not for the first time." Peter quipped.
It took a second for it to register, but when they got it, many students were hooting. "Ooooooohhhhh. Burn."
"Shots fired." Lina added with a smirk.
Tsuna simply conjured a jug containing cool water, and dumped it on Sirius' head. "Please apply cool water to the burnt area." Tsuna said while pouring the water.
"Damn, Wormy." Sirius said while drying himself. "Can't even get pissed off on that one, it was a good one."
"Alright settle down." Flitwick chided while shaking his head. "We will do it one at a time. Ms. Evans, would you like to go first?"
Lily approached the front of the class and performed the spell perfectly on her first attempt. Many other students did the same. Athena and Lina managed to conjure a jet of highly pressurized water. Tsuna definitely didn't want to face that and be cut into tiny pieces. Eventually Flitwick called Tsuna and he approached the front, albeit nervously.
Aguamenti was a spell that was largely based on power. It was physical in nature. Depending on the speed and strength of the caster, they could either just conjure a few leaking drops to an entire tidal wave and Tsuna knew that he definitely fell in the latter group. Well, in Tsuna's case it was akin to a mini tsunami because he had to use the spell once, when he was doing an ANBU mission in Ho Chi Minh City. Let's just say, the local public work departments had a lot of water to deal with. But what hurt Tsuna the most was… his pay-cut! His boss cut his pay and he had no money for 'Tsu-chan Appreciation Day'. No money meant no cake. He had to spend his personal appreciation day by just eating a measly bar of chocolate. Oh, the pain!
"Don't worry Mr. Sawada, I'm sure you will be fine." Flitwick said comfortingly while sensing the boys' nervousness. 'Perhaps, he is not used to demonstrating in front of many people.' Flitwick thought. Professor, you couldn't be even more wrong.
"A word of warning Professor. Everyone should put up their shields. Believe me, it will help." Tsuna warned. "It's powerful, even if I hold back."
"I'm sure it will be okay, Mr. Sawada." Flitwick said in a soothing way. Of course, he meant it in a good way. However, ladies and gentlemen, our dear protagonist's ego just got bruised by that remark. If the tic marks developing on his head was any indication. Lina and Athena who saw it, immediately raised the best shield spells they knew. Athena used a shield spell from the Black Family's Grimoire, while Lina used a shield spell classified by the United States Government. Lina's fear was proven right when she saw Tsuna secretly performing one handed seals. Of course, she paled when she recognized the sequence. 'You idiot! Are you planning to kill everyone?' Unfortunately, she was too late to even react.
Tsuna simply flicked his wand and chanted in his mind, 'Suiton: Suiryudan no Jutsu' (Water Style: Water Dragon Missile). True to its name, a very large eastern dragon made entirely of water burst out the tip of Tsuna's wand. Everyone looked on in muted shock while the dragon darted from one direction to another while avoiding all the students. After causing a bit of destruction, the water dragon turned its attention to Athena and Lina who still had their shields up. Taking it as a challenge it dived towards them at full speed. However, before anything could happen they heard a shout of, "Katon: Karyu Endan" (Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet). This time another large eastern dragon appeared. This one, however, was completely made of flames. Both dragons met at a point and exploded. Water and Flames meeting at a single point, made the entire Charms classroom be covered in a hot and heavy mist.
Professor Flitwick quickly opened the window to get the mist out of the classroom and to allow some fresh air inside. Once the mist cleared, it was revealed to be Tsuna, who was standing in front of Athena and Lina and had probably defended them. Since the mist was heavy, everyone's clothes were sticking heavily to their bodies. Tsuna managed to sneak a peek at Athena's lingerie. 'Hm. Black lace with red borders. That's hot.' Tsuna thought while still 'observing' seriously. Immediately three thick spell books belonging to Angelina Shields, Bellatrix Black and Lily Evans came down heavily on Tsuna's head, with the three girls shouting, "STOP PEEPING, YOU PERVERTED BASTARD!" Athena covered herself with her robe with a blush on her face, while Frank and the Marauders were now howling with laughter.
"And he told me to have decency." Sirius joked. A thick book was immediately thrown to his face, connecting with a satisfying thud.
"Mr. Sawada, exactly what the hell was that?" Flitwick asked after Tsuna got himself out from the pile of books he was buried under.
It was…" Tsuna started, but immediately paused, as if he was trying to build up the suspense. After a small period of silence, "THE MOST EXTREME FIGHT OF THE SEASON! TWO EXTREME POWERHOUSES COLLIDE! ONE EXTREMELY PROTECTS THE FAIR MAIDENS, WHILE THE OTHER EXTREMELY SEEKS TO CAUSE THEM HARM! WHAT WILL EXTREMELY HAPPEN?! WHO WILL EXTREMELY PREVAIL?! DON'T FORGET TO EXTREMELY TUNE IN TO THE EXTREME SKY MOVIES NETWORK TO EXTREMELY FIND OUT!" Tsuna suddenly shouted in the voice of a certain EXTREME boxer, with fire in his eyes.
'What's up with this skewered movie script?' Lina thought.
"As much as that was an entertaining description of what just happened. You still haven't answered my question, Mr. Sawada." Flitwick said. "What was that?"
"Th-The Aguamenti spell…?" Tsuna replied weakly while not meeting Flitwick's eyes.
Flitwick had a deadpan expression on his face.
"Fine. It was a combination spell." Tsuna conceded. "It combined the Aguamenti spell and an ancient water spell from medieval Japan. Normally that spell by itself is quite powerful and has been assigned a B-Rank. However, combine it with Aguamenti and you are looking at a potential SS-Rank spell if used at full power. The same was for the fire spell. That one, I combined it with Fiendfyre." Tsuna explained. "Both of them were being held back though."
Everyone, except a few people, looked at Tsuna in shock. They were all reeling with the fact that Tsuna used two potentially very lethal spells in the classroom.
"100 points from Gryffindor, for using potentially lethal spells in a classroom setting." Flitwick said grimly. The Gryffindor students looked as if Christmas was cancelled. Tsuna had a resigned look on his face. "However, 200 points to Gryffindor, for what was perhaps the best selection of spells I have ever seen and spell casting silently. Another 50 points for acting swiftly to defend your classmates from your own spell." Tsuna and the rest of the Gryffindor students now had large grins on their faces. "Though, minus 25 points for staring at a classmate indecently." Tsuna was now on his hands and knees and was looking like he was just informed that the world was ending.
"Mr. Sawada, if you are done with the theatrics, please do take your seat. And make sure you apologize to Ms. Black and Ms. Shields." Flitwick said with a small smile.
Tsuna got back into his seat and earnestly said, "I am sorry Athena, Lina. For putting both of you in danger."
"That's okay. I knew you could handle it." Lina said before adding in a dangerous voice, "Next time though, make sure you don't even use any spell above a goddamn C-Rank, in a classroom setting."
"Right."
"It's okay Tsuna." Athena said with a smile. "However, to make up, you have to teach me how to cast silently."
"I'll give you the full package. I'll even teach you how to cast wandlessly." Tsuna said with a smile.
"Are you saying, Mr. Sawada, that you know how to cast silently and wandlessly?" Flitwick asked with his eyes wide.
"Sir, yes sir."
"Well… that is, frankly, amazing" Flitwick complimented.
"So, will I get some extra points or credits for it?" Tsuna asked with a mischievous smirk.
"No. Because that will be unfair." Flitwick said with a smile. Tsuna started to pout.
"Professor." One Lucius Malfoy called out.
"Yes, Mr. Malfoy."
"Mr. Sawada said something about spell ranks and classifications. Could he please elaborate on that?" Lucius asked.
"Why? So you will learn of new ways to hex someone?" James asked scathingly.
"Yeah, why do you want to know, you scheming snake?" Sirius said, while adding fuel to the fire.
Before anything else could happen, two loud bangs were heard. Those who were looking at the two Marauders were suddenly seeing a bathroom slipper each in their mouths and their eyes white while their mouths had begun to foam. The source turned out to be none other than Tsuna who had one more slipper in his hand and was holding it up as if he would throw that as well.
"First of all, Malfoy asked me the question. It is my decision whether to answer him or not." Tsuna said. Everyone in the classroom, including Flitwick, felt a shudder go down their spines. "Second of all, seriously, shut the anti-Slytherin drabble. I ain't even been in this school for 24 hours, and I'm already sick of it. No wonder you fools are going through a fucking civil war."
"Now to answer your question, Malfoy. Yes, in many countries, such as Japan, China, United States etc., we classify spells in ranks or classes. The ranks are as follows. D-Rank, C-Rank, B-Rank, A-Rank, S-Rank and SS-Rank. You can use the words 'Ranks' and 'Class' interchangeably. These ranks are for spells that are designed for Combat use aka Anti-personnel spells.
D-Rank spells would only knock out or stun your opponent. They are quite common to use and nothing will happen if you use it. C-Rank spells are spells that can cause injuries resulting in a temporary disability. These are less common and if used without sanction, you are looking at a disciplinary hearing in a magical tribunal. If unauthorized use is detected in Mahoutokoro, the Mahoutokoro Disciplinary Committee, a part of the Student Council, is tasked to conduct an investigation and provide a report to the school's Board of Directors within 15 days, though they can ask for an extension, if required. B-Rank spells are spells causing injuries which result in a permanent disability or injury, although, lethality is not out of the question. An unsanctioned use of this, and your actions immediately allow the Aurors or the Police to arrest you without any warrant and detain you for 60 days or until you are to be produced to the Central 46, the judicial authority of Magical Japan. The A-Rank spells are lethal spells. These spells easily cause fatal injuries or injuries leading to permanent disability. Only the military and the Stealth Force are sanctioned to use it. Anyone else using it, will find himself directly thrown into the 'Nest of Maggots'. The Japanese equivalent of your Azkaban Prison or the Americans' Alcatraz Prison." Tsuna paused his explanation to make the information sink in, while noting how everyone paled at the mention of Azkaban. Well, he couldn't blame them. It was the same case for himself at the mention of the 'Nest of Maggots'.
The mere mention of 'The Nest of Maggots' will make even the toughest person give out a cry in fear. An 8 level underwater prison smack dab in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with only the guards from the Stealth Force and Auror Corps, who are rotated every month, as company. Furthermore, the 7th and 8th Fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy surround the prison in 6 monthly shifts, thus preventing any escapes. The stories of the blatant human rights abuse, would make even the coldest and toughest human heart quiver. It was only because of his young age and a few strings pulled by Ietsuna Sawada that Tsuna was never assigned a guard duty in the 'Nest of Maggots', something Tsuna was always thankful for.
"The users of S-Rank and SS-Rank spells are always part of the Imperial Japanese Magical Military Force. The S-Ranks and SS-Ranks are further divided into three classes. They are as follows. Combat-Class Magicians, Tactical-Class Magicians and Strategic-Class Magicians.
Combat-Class Magicians are magicians with the power to make small groups incapable of fighting in combat. Many users of S-Class Magic are Combat-Class Magicians. Tactical-Class Magicians are magicians with the power to incapacitate medium to large groups of enemy personnel. Alternatively, they can easily destroy mobile weapons such as tanks or fighter jets. Finally, the Strategic-Class Magicians are magicians capable of destroying cities or entire naval fleets with a single blow. These magicians normally tend to act as deterrents to enemy nations. Japan and the United States have three Strategic-Class Magicians each. In World War 2, Commander-General Genryusai Shikeguni Yamamoto, singlehandedly wiped out the last of the American Naval Fleet in Midway Islands, which made the Americans surrender and helped Japan win the Pacific Theatre. It would be disastrous, if Japan and the USA went to war in this day and age. The Soviet Union also have two. Brazil, China, Germany, India, Thailand and Turkey have one each as well." Tsuna finished his explanation. At this point, he was simply pitying the looks of pure fear in every student's eyes, except himself and Lina, before adding, "Oh, even the United Kingdom have one."
This got everyone out of their stupor. Even Flitwick, who looked like he was having an aneurysm, looked at Tsuna, the unspoken question shining in their eyes.
With a sigh, Tsuna decided to tell the name. It was public record anyway, so it's not like he would fall in trouble. "The bloke's name is William McCloud. He is a First-Generation Magician or as you guys call, a muggleborn. A middle aged fella in his mid-40s. Of course, his location is a closely-guarded secret of Her Majesty's Government."
"Wait a second. The dude is a muggleborn?!" Sirius exclaimed.
"That is what I just said, didn't I?" Tsuna shot back.
"Bullshit!" An unknown person said. Tsuna recognized him as Rudolphus Lestrange.
"What?" Tsuna asked, with narrowed eyes.
"I said bullshit. There is no way, a good-for-nothing mudblood, can do anything." Rudolphus sneered. "And if this was such a big thing, why haven't we Pureblood families heard of it?"
"Oh, I don't know. Considering you ostriches are so full of yourselves that you cannot even stomach the fact that there will always be someone stronger than you." Tsuna shot back. "Plus, your magical government is run by idiots anyway. So it's no surprise over there."
"What was that?" Lestrange asked while trying to put to intimidate Tsuna. Key word trying.
"What? You hard of hearing as well?" Tsuna asked. "Damn, Rudy boy, you sure are a large disappointment to your parents as well aren't you?"
"What was that, you little son of a–" What Rudolphus Lestrange was going to say could be anybody's guess, right now though, he found his face and mouth being held in a very tight grip and his eyes staring into a pair of charcoal black abyss, both which belonged to one, Tsunayoshi Sawada.
"Tut. Tut. I would watch my tone there, Rudy-poo." Tsuna said with a deceptively calm voice. "The last idiot that insulted my mother ended up with a knife going through his skull and blood being sprayed everywhere. Believe me, with grunts and trolls like you I won't kill you. No no no. That's too boring. I will dismember you. I will hurt you really, really bad. I will do such heinous things to you that even the author of this story, in good conscience will not mention it over here. By the time I will be done with you, you will be begging me to simply kill you. But no. I won't just kill you. I will make sure your entire existence vanishes. I will make sure nobody will even remember the name, Rudolphus Lestrange. Not even your parents, not even your dirty street rat that you call a brother and definitely not anyone else in this world will know you even existed. Now that, pal, is the worst form of death that I bestow to people who piss me of really, really badly." During the entire speech, everyone could feel Tsuna's voice and the room temperature get colder and colder. By the end, everyone were shivering and hunching, as if they were being suffocated by some unseen pressure. Professor Flitwick and Lina immediately realized what it was. Bloodlust/Killing Intent. And an insane amount of it.
Flitwick couldn't help but wonder, what this boy had gone through to have such a terrifying ability. An ability so terrifying that only those who spent their entire lives doing nothing but fighting and killing could obtain it. Lina, who knew Tsuna very well was able to counter it by releasing her own Killing Intent, though a very small part of it as to not affect anyone else. Because, he has training from the Stealth Force, Tsuna normally kept his bloodlust in check. It was very rarely, he ever released it. Even she knew, that the current bloodlust he was releasing, was very negligible compared to what he is actually capable of.
Soon enough, the pressure was lifted and everyone felt that they could breathe again. Rudolphus Lestrange was revealed to be knocked out cold. 'Tch. Weakling." Tsuna thought. Immediately, the school bell rang signifying the end of the lecture. Tsuna wasted no time in grabbing his books and bag and hightailed it out of the Charms classroom to avoid any unnecessary questions, Natsu running behind him. He stopped at a place where he knew he could remain hidden for a while. After that, he just decided to bang his head on the wall. Multiple times.
'What. The. Fuck. Is wrong with me?!' Tsuna screamed in his mind while still banging his head. 'I almost blew the mission! Come on, Tsuna. You can do better than this. You gotta be more professional. You were an Elite ANBU member for Christ's sake.' He continued chiding himself.
"Are you okay?" A voice called out from behind. The voice completely surprised Tsuna and he was surprised at how did someone else's presence completely go under his radar. Tsuna immediately got out his wand from his holster and whirled around, multiple spells already in his mind.
The person behind him was revealed to be none other than Athena Black. Tsuna put his wand down, after determining that she wasn't a threat. "Sorry." Tsuna said. "I'm a bit agitated right now."
"I can see that." Athena replied while looking at the cracks on the wall.
"What are you doing here?" Tsuna asked.
"I could ask you the same." Athena replied. tsuna just gave out a shrug
"Well, let's go, I believe we have DADA right now." Tsuna said, while coming out of the hiding place. He held his hand out to Athena, who accepted it.
"You know our DADA Professor, right?" Athena asked. Her reply was a nod from Tsuna.
"How is he? As a teacher?"
"Absolutely brutal."
"Oh."
The pair continued towards the DADA classroom in silence for a while until Tsuna broke it.
"You know, I didn't get the chance to say it back in the Charms classroom, but I think black and red looks really hot on you." Tsuna said with a serious expression.
Athena's reply to that statement was simply giving a roundhouse kick to Tsuna on the face and send him flying about a 100 meters. She had a small blush on her face, while no one, and not even herself, noticed the tiny smile she had with it.
AN: So people, what did you think about it? What did you think of the terminologies, people and places I introduced? what did you guys think of Natsu's behaviour? Also, forgive me, those people who were not expecting those random Mature moments. I should have given this as a warning before, but, this story is borderline M-rated. There will be no smut, but sexual references will be present. Also, about Tsuna tearing a new one into Rudolphus Lestrange. Admit it, he kinda deserved it. Make sure to ask me on what you all want to be included in the world factfile and I will include it.
To the American readers. Please don't try to track me while assembling your weapons to shoot me. The reference I have given to the Pacific Theatre in this story is just pure fiction. Pearl Harbour was bad and unfortunate even after 77 years. So please forgive me if you are offended by it. This story is for purely entertainment purposes only. I do not target any group or country for its actions.
