Chapter 5

It was an unusual morning for Terra, normally she would wake up and prepare breakfast for Uncle K, Verde, and herself but this morning when she woke up she found breakfast ready for her. On the counter there was a plate with some half burnt scrambled eggs paired with some pieces of toast. Under the plate was a piece of paper, on it was a note from her father that wished her good luck as it was her first day of going to school.

Terra smiled and happily ate the burnt eggs as she flipped the note over and wrote 'Thank you' on the back. After she finished her breakfast she grabbed her green backpack and left the house. Terra had already memorized the route to school as it was only a ten minute walk from her house to the school.

As she was walking to school she looked around and noticed a few other kids around her age doing the same. Some kids were walking with their older siblings and others with their parents. Every now and then she would see kids walking by themselevs like herself but as soon as they saw anyone they considered a friend they would join up with them. By the time she drifted out of her thoughts she had already reached the gates to primary school.

The school was a medium sized building that only had one floor, it looked large enough to hold a few grades and had a large playground to the left side of the building. As Terra walked into the building she took note of how the hallways didn't have any lockers but had a similair japanese style shoe box system. And by the looks of it only the older kids were using such shoe boxes so she assumed she didn't have to bother looking for one.

Terra searched the hallways for a bit until she found the principals office. Once inside she asked for the principle to direct her to her classroom. Five minutes passed and now Terra is standing outside class 2C waiting fir the teacher to call her in. Honestly she thought it was weird how she felt a little nervous and excited at the chance to restart school, as she knew that it was going to be a huge waste of time on her part.

Unfortunately Terra couldn't finish her thoughts as the teacher called her into the classroom to introduce herself. Terra walked into the classroom and stood infront of around thirty other six year olds, and oddly enough some of the kids eyes went wide when they saw her.

By the way today Terra was wearing a hoodie where from shoulders and up it was pure white with cloud paterns on it and below her shoulders the rest if the hoodie was a bright orange. She was wearing a black skirt today as well.

The teacher was aware of the stare around the class so she decided to help out her new student introduce herself.

"Alright class please pay attention as our new friend here is about to introduce herself."

Terra then nodded to her teacher and looked back at her new classmates.

"Name is Terra." She then sharpened her normally tired looking eyes and put her arm out shaping her hand to look like a finger gun only that it was upside down and then turned her body slightly and pointed it at the whole classroom.

"Get it memorized."

Afterwards she just put her hand back down and her face returned to it's normal tired blank state. Meanwhile the entire class was completely quite as they had just witnessed the new girls explosive introduction. A frw seconds later all of the boys were getting riled up while all of the girls where thinking the same thing 'She's cool.'

It took the teacher a few minutes to quite down the classroom before she could guide Terra to her seat. Funnilly enough Terra found herself sitting next to the young Vongola himself. She tried waving to him but it seemed like his mind turned off as he wasn't responding to her.

She could have talked to him to get his attention but she didn't feel like talking at the moment so she left him alone.

After that the teacher went inti teaching a few kanji symbols and read the class a book before releasing us to finish some math. As long as you finished early you were allowed to use the extra time to play until lunch.

As Terra was a literal godlike genuis she finshed all of her work in a minute and turned it into the teacher before returning to her table. Terra had some down time so she looked around her table to observe the other kids at it. To her left were two other girls, one was Sasagawa Kyoko and the other looked like a young Kurokawa Hana. Hana was working on her classwork at a decent pace while Kyoko looked a little unfocused on her work. Kyoko soon realised that someone was looking at her so she looked up to greet Terra's eyes.

Terra just gave a small wave showing Kyoko that she remebered who she was and Kyoko returned the gesture with a big smile. Afterwards Kyoko went back to her classwork at a much faster pace then before. Around thirty minutes passed and all the other students finished their classwork just in time for lunch, well almost everyone as Tsuna was still struggling with his work. The teacher gave him a pass though and told him he could finish it at home tonight and turn it in tomorrow morning.

During lunch a bunch of children came up to Terra and started bombarding her with questions.

"What's your favorite color?" (Girl 1)

"Where are you from?" (Girl 2)

"Why's your name weird?" (boy 1)

"Why is your hair weird?" (boy 2)

"Wanna be my friend?" (Girl 3)

Terra didn't like all of the crowding around her but she decided to humor the other children by answering their questions. " Silver, Namimori, It's Ittalian, Why is your face weird?, ... maybe?"

All the kids started laughing at the boy number 2 as Terra continued to eat her lunch ignoring the boy as he glared at her with his face all red in embaracement.

After lunch the children were given recess which allowed them to go out and play on the playground. Most of the boys went out and started playing soccer, while the girls would group up and start talking to eachother by the monkey bars. Terra decided to go out into the field and just lay down on the grass to take a nap.

She only got around ten minutes of sleep before Kyoko and Hana went up to talk to her.

Kyoko introduced herself and Hana before thanking Terra for saving both her and her brother. Terra just nodded showing that it wasn't a problem, then she put her head back down on the sift grass before looking into the sky. Hana was perplexed at how weird the new girl was acting so she decided to question her.

"Hey why are you laying on the grass? won't you get dirty if you do that?"

Terra just turned her head a bit to look over at Hana before looking back into the sky.

"Cloud watching."

Hana's head gained a few tick marks on it showing how annoyed she was at the respondse she got.

"Oh alright but why are you laying on the ground to do that? you'll just get dirty?"

Terra continued to stare up at the sky not even sparing a glance this time.

"Because if I do it standing up... my neck will get a cramp."

Hana was baffled this time but caught on quick as sge was natrually good at coming up with retorts.

"What cramps! we're six years old we don't get cramps!"

Both Hana and Kyoko were staring at Terra waiting for whatever ridiculous thing she was going to say next. But they were suprised when Both of Terra's eyes grew larger as if she just had a realisation.

"...Oh."

Hana just faceplanted into the ground realising how weird her new classmate is and Kyoko thought that Terra felt a bit similair to Ryohei at times.

For the rest if recess Hana continued to question Terra's decisions and Kyoko would just talk about anything she could think of to lift the mood. Terra just hung around and listened in as she felt pretty calm at the moment.

When class started back up again the teacher had the kids start off by doing some arts and crafts before going into some simple local geography lessons. Terra was extremely bored during this time when she noticed that Tsuna really enjoyed the arts and crafts lesson. He drew a weird looking robot, it wasn't half bad and he looked a little proud of it but too bad the teacher critisized him for drawing outside the lines. He looked pretty depressed after that.

And finally the end of class rolled around and kids parents and siblings starred to show up to take them home. Terra said goodbye to Hana when she was taken by her mother and to Kyoko when Ryohei came to pick her up.

Speaking of Ryohei he was excilerated when he found out that the strong girl who saved him and Kyoko transferred into his sisters class. He felt good knowing that he didn't have to worry about anyone bullying his sister now that Terra was here. He continued to bombard Terra with how extreme boxing was and how much he loved it before Kyoko had to end up dragging him out of the classroom to go home.

Terra decided after a few minutes that she should also go home, but she noticed there was one other kid sitting alone in the classroom. Tsuna was sitting all alone and looked pretty depressed for some reason probably at the fact that his mother hasn't showed up yet.

So Terra just walked up to the little Vongola and put her hand on his head causing him to look up at her.

"Tsuna... wanna walk home?"

Tsuna looked extremely surprised about something as his eyes went huge. It took him a minute but he finally calmed down and he just nodded his head repeatidly.

So he got up and started to follow Terra out of the classroom and out of the school.

Tsuna Pov:

Tsuna looked pretty nervous probably about the fact that he was walking home without his mother being there. Unknown to Terra that wasn't really the main reason Tsuna was so nervous.

At the moment he was fretting over the fact that the mysterious girl he met around a year ago suddenly reappeared and joined his class.

at first he was worried that she forgot all about him and he really wanted to talk to her when she came into class but when she introduced herself in such a cool way he became to insecure to talk to her. Why would someone as cool as her talk to someone like him anyways. Later during the portion of school where they did their math he was surprised at how fast she finished her work, compared to himself who has to take it home to finish it. And finally at lunch he noticed how fast it took her to make friends with two of the most popular girls in their class without even trying meanwhile he just sat alone by himself in the sand box.

By the end of the day he just felt depressed at the fact that he failed to make friends with the girl named Terra and that she probably forgot about him.

But to his surprise a hand started to pat his hand and he was called out by the girl. She actually remembered his name and asked if he wanted to walk home with her. Shocked would be an understatement about how he felt at the moment, and he eventually agreed to her offer.

On the walk back home Tsuna just felt like the situation was getting more awkward by the second as the silence was making him paranoid. So Tsuna started to tell Terra about his mother and about all of his favorite video games. Terra just listened to him but every now and then she would give him a nod showing him that she was listening to him. After ten minutes they reached Tsuna's house, he was sad that she was leaving but Tsuna perked up when he heard her say "See you tomorrow."

Later that night Tsuna told his mom all about Terra and how they met at primary school again just like she said he would even if it only took around a year to actually happen.

Terra Pov:

When Terra got home she went to lab to greet her dad and told Verde all about her day at school. Then she proceeded to make coffee for him and left the lab to go meditate in her room before she started training.

Unknown to her Verde actually sent a small robot fly to record her first day at school. Now of course there were a few things that bugged him like Boy number 2, Ryohei getting close to Terra and that Tsuna kid, but he figured his daughter would be smart enough to ignore those idiots. Now the parts he enjoyed was definitely Terras introduction, and the part where she was struggling to stay awake during the teachers introduction to geography.

He clipped out these two scenes from the recording and added them to the folder he has on his daughtet. Funnily enough that folder was in the same folder of why he was better than the other Arcobaleno.

Two weeks passed and nothing really changed. Terra continued going to school and talked to Kyoko and Hana, She even got Tsuna to start interacting with them too. During these two weeks she learned how bad Tsuna was at everything he tried to learn. Math, Language, Geography, and History all were things he was terrible at, and Terra was confident that if science was in their curiculum Tsuna would suck at that too.

So Terra decided to help out her friend a bit and create a good way for him to study. The normal way to go about these thing would be to create a study group but Terra isn't basic. No instead Terra programmed a video game to help Tsuna learn his basics.

The game was created in an rpg fashion where the main character who looked extremely like Tsuna would go all around the island of Napaj and battle against evil robots. The MC would fight the Evil robots with his own good robots that he would gain by progressing in the game.

In reality Napaj was Really Japan and every location on Napaj corresponded to the locations in Japan. Terra made it so that the recources in the game that Tsuna would have to find to upgrade his robots would correspound to the real life locations natural recources.

The enemy robots were mostly inspired by historic japanese figures and each introduction to mid and normal bosses would explain a bit about the originals history.

Finally The battles were set up as a normal rotation type battle but with the exception that Tsuna could get additional dammage in if he used a problem attack. Terra programmed in a feature where each robot would have a problem attack and if Tsuna solved the problem a huge amount of dammage would take place on the enemy robots.

This was pretty good as each problem attack taught the equation/rules on how to solve the problem before hand.

Terra also realised that Tsuna might just try and ignore the problem attacks outright so he could continue to play, so she also mad it so that after some time Tsuna would have to recharge his robots by solving some problems. If he didn't solve the problems then he wouldn't be able to continue the game.

Oh and the robots he gained in order were Lion, Cat, Dog, Kangaroo, Bull, Porcupine, and an Owl.

Tsuna ended up loving the gift and spent a lot of time playing with it. He was surprised at how smart Terra was but he put that thought into the back of his head as he just enjoyed playing his game. At first he disliked the fact that he had to answer problems to continue the game but the more he did the easier the questions became later on. And to top it all of he soon realised that he started to do a lot better in school thanks to playing the game. His mother was even happier about that then he was and asked him why he was suddenly doing a lot better. When he told her it was all thanks to his friend Terra for making the game for him she was extremely happy that Tsuna found good wife material as a friend.

It took Tsuna around four months to finish the game and when he did he techinacally also finished learning everything they would teach in primary school as well.

Meanwhile Terra continued to train with TR1 for the four months and was a little annoyed when she found out Tsuna beat the game she made. Don't get her wrong she was happy that her friend won't be known for being an idiot in the future the thing that pissed her off was that Tsuna beat the last boss. The final boss in the game was actually a pixalated version of TR1 and was made to be extremely hard to beat, and somehow Tsuna beat said boss in only four months after getting the game. Meanwhile here Terra was fighting the real thing and she hasn't even gotten one win in the last year and a half.

This made her ignore Tsuna for a good week before she would finally talk to him again.
