Chapter 7
The next morning Terra woke up feeling a heavy weight resting on her lap. She slowly opened her tired eyes only to see a large egg sitting there on her lap. The egg was a beautifull shade of violet and light pink, it's size was as big as her head if not bigger. Obviously any normal person would freak out at finding such a weird thing in the morning, Terra well instead of freaking out was instead made incredibly hungry at looking at such a large egg.
After a few minutes Terra stopped daydreaming about eating the giant egg and wiped the drool off of her face. Terra than proceeded by grabbing the large egg and walking downstairs to her father's lab and ask him what was the deal with the giant egg.
A minute later Terra walked through the labs automatic door and stood behind her fathers chair.
"Question?" (Terra)
Verde not even sparing his daughter a glance just sighed as he continued to type on his super computer.
"Good morning to you too... and yeah what is it?" (Verde)
Terra could tell that he was slightly irritated that she didn't say good morning and just skipped right to bugging him.
"Mmm sorry... wanted to ask about giant purple egg on me..."
Verde spun his chair around extremely fast with his eyes wide open.
"What egg? may I see it?" (Verde)
Terra just nodded her head and set the egg down on Verde's desk so he could observe it. Verde studied the egg for awhile before telling Terra to go and make breakfast while she waits. Terra complied with her dad's request and went up stairs to make some bacon, egg, and cheese biscuits for all three of them. While Terra was cooking Verde was pulling out all sorts if machines and was testing them all out on the egg, scanning it for life and what not.
By the time Terra finished up cooking and returning to the lab Verde was quite clear on what the egg was. He stared at his daughter with a sad look in his eyes.
'This shouldn't even be possible but if she could obtain an egg does that mean that she can use her flames as well?'
Terra was oblivious to her fathers thoughts as she continued to eat her biscuit and occasionally give Keiman another one to eat.
"Terra do you remember what i've told you about dying will flames?" (Verde)
Terra looked at Verde and just nodded.
"Mmmm ... Dying will flames are the manifestation of life energy. They come in seven different colors and are somewhat related to a persons personality. To use the flame you must be in contact with a dying will bullet or something that can replicate its affect.
Dad and the other arcobaleno like shishou Fon are the exception to this rule and can use their will flames whenever."
Verde nodded his head.
"That's correct, now I suspect that you are a new exception to this rule and I want you to try and bring out your flame."
Terra was suprised and looked down at her hands and tried to summon a flame. But nothing happened all she did was hold her breath and clenched her butt until her face turned bright red.
Verde who was watching Terra couldn't help but give a small smirk at his daughters attempt. He secretly took a picture of her before going back into his strict teacher mode.
"What are you doing? To summon your flames all you have to do is put a feeling into a flame or to be more specific push an emotion out of yourself. The stronger the emotion the stronger the flame will become." (Verde)
Terra listened to her father and pushed all of her emotions out before her entire body erupted in a giant watery blue flame. Vede was suprised at how large and pure the flame was. "Wow that's impressive Terra now why don't yo-!".
Before Verde could finish his sentence another giant flame erupted out of Terra's body. This flame was a giant green flame that took the form of lightning. The lightning danced in and out of the watery flames and surronded a suprised Terra before both flames up and vanished.
Verde was stuck between being happy at how incredible and dreading the amount of problems that this would bring him.
"*Sigh* well I guess that proves to me that I was correct." (Verde)
Terra just tilted her head at her father clearly asking what he meant by that. She was confused about how she could use her flames without any assistance.
"Alright so here's the deal, you are not allowed to use your flames out in public and the only place you can use them is here. You will train every day to control your flames and to master their abiloties to their fullest. I can help you with training your lightning flames but I can't help you to much with you rain flames." (Verde)
Vede picked up his coffee mug and took a long sip before putting it back down.
"Next, you see that purple egg over there?" (Verde)
Nod* (Terra)
"Well that is your new partner. Origanlly I thought that when one becomes an arcobaleno they recieve a partner in return but now I believe that is wrong. It appears that when someone reaches perfect assimilation between their soul and their body a creature is born from their soul that represents them. Keiman is my partner and it appears that whatever is in this egg is yours Terra." (Verde)
Terra picked up her egg and hugged it in her arms as she looked down happily at the egg. A very rare smile appeared on her face as she coddled the egg, Verde very pleased at his daughters happy face couldn't help but to show on himself.
For the rest of the day Verde taught Terra how to control her flames enough to be called a beginner.
The next day Terra got dressed up in a small blue hoodie that had a whirlpool patern laid out on it. She was also wearing a pair of black shorts along with her blue sneakers. Terra quickly made breakfast before picking up her purple egg and walking out the door to go to school. Terra decided to take the egg everywhere she went as she learned that the animals born out of them were extremely uncoftorable when their partners aren't around.
On the way to school Terra recieved many curious and strange looks from her fellow students. Terra just ignored their looks and continued her journey until she finally reached the school. Once there she took of her shoes and stored them in her new foot locker that the uperclassmen received.
A few minutes later Terra was sitting in her classroom waiting for the teacher to arrive and begin class. Oh by the way this year Kyoko and Hana were in a different class, and her class had a few new students. One of those students was Takashi Yamamoto, not that it mattered as Terra never really talked to him anyways. The only person she ever really talked to during class was the bumbling idiot falling through the door right now.
Of course that idiot was Tsuna, the boy is still a clumsy fool who can't stand it if he doesn't fall on his face atleast a few times a day. Terra giggled a little at Tsuna's entrance into the classroom which was returned by a blushing stare from Tsuna. Tsuna quickly pulled himselft together and got off of the floor and headed towards his seat which was next to Terra.
Tsuna put his stuff down before taking his seat. He took a peak at Terra when his eyes went wide in shock at the sight of her carrying a giant egg.
"What's with the giant egg! are you even allowed to have that at school?" (Tsuna)
Terra just turned to look at Tsuna and gave him a look that made it seem like he was asking an idiotic question.
"My partner... maybe?" (Terra)
Tsuna was flabergasted.
"Hieeeeeeee! Maybe!? Why are you saying it like it's a question!." (Tsuna)
Terra just shook her head in disapproval and stuck her tounge out at him.
Tsuna just sighed and was mentally questioning himself if his friend had finally lost it. A few minutes later their teacher arrived and started class. Both Terra and Tsuna struggled to stay awake in class once more as they both already knew eveything that was being taught. Honestly if it wasn't for Terra making Tsuna his game he would have already been behind a grade by now and wouldn't be able to understand anything.
The teacher was introducing the other kids to multiplication and division. Most of the children looked confused and kind of scared about the new rules that were introduced into math. Before all they needed to know was how to add an subtract numbers, but now this please have mercy on their young souls.
Terra forced herself to stay awake with the rest of the class until it was lunch time. During lunch Terra introduced both Hana and Kyoko to her new partner. Hana began to go on how Terra was out of her mind and question her own sanity for hanging out with the strange girl. While Kyoko just politely smiled and said how it was good practice for taking care of a real child. Time flew by and both lunch and recess passed and the gang had to split up again and go back to their classrooms.
Once Terra and Tsuna returned to their class they both went to their desks to once again listen to the teacher. Unfortunately though unlike in the morning Terra didn't put any effort in trying to stay awake during the lesson. So after five or so minutes Terra put her head on her desk and hugged the purple egg until she fell asleep.
Tsuna soon noticed that his desk neighbor fell asleep and decided to try and wake her up. Tsuna tried to quitely call out for Terra and get her to wake up before the teacher would see her asleep. Unfortunately the teacher noticed little Tsuna and called him out.
"Sawada quite down this instance you're disrupting the class!" (Teacher)
Tsuna jumped in his seat and whipped his head forward to look back at the teacher.
"Saa sowwy." (Tsuna)
The teacher kept her gaze on Tsuna for a moment before looking over at the sleeping Terra. She decided to ignore the sleeping girl and continue to teach the lesson. Tsuna felt a little vexed at the teachers treatment and just mumbled a silent "no fair."
"What was that Sawada? It appears you have something to say to the class?" (Teacher)
Tsuna summoned all of his courage up and decided to respond to the teacher.
"I said it's not fair that Terra didn't get in trouble for sleeping but I got in trouble for talking!" (Tsuna)
The teacher sighed and just nodded her head before yelling at the sleeping Terra.
"Get up!!!!!" (Teacher)
Terra slowly woke up and moved her eyes up towards the teacher while keeping her chin on the desk.
"Awake are we? Please try to stay awake this time so you can join class with the rest of us. You can't always have Sawada to so kindly help keep us aware if you are awake or not can we?" (Teacher)
Terra now more awake slowly shifted her eyes over and silently glared at the boy shaking in his desk next to her. The anxiety on his face painted a picture of someone who was absolutely terrified.
Terra just continued to glare at Tsuna before opening her mouth.
"Snitches.. End.. Up.. In.. Ditches.." (Terra)
"Heiiiiiii!!!" (Tsuna)
Class continued on and eventually the day came to an end. All of the students got up and started to pack their things. Terra was for the first time the fastest to pack and leave the classroom. But jist before she left the classroom she decided to part with a message for the entire class to hear.
"See ... you tomorrow... Tsuna-Chan." (Terra)
And that was the start of Tsuna's agony. Everyone in their grade questioned Tsuna's gender and other quickly started to call him Tsuna-chan. It went on for months and during that time Tsuna even got confessed to by another boy. If Tsuna could cry tears of blood at that moment he would have, it was this little incadent that Tsuna learned to never mess with Terra's sleeping time.
Months passed by and eventually Terra's egg cracked open. She was suprised to find that a familiar small animal was in the egg. A purple fox cat popped out of the egg, it suprised Verde as he didn't know what kind of animal it was but for Terra she knew exactly what it was.
Espeon.

Terra was suprised that she could see her espeon's stats while Verde could not.
"Dad I can see it's stats." (Terra)
"Elaborate" (Verde)
"It looks like... a game character." (Terra)
Verde nodded his head and observed the weird fox cat for awhile.
"Well it makes sense. Our partners take part of us and are influenced by our souls one way or another. Take Keiman for instance he cam grow and shrink his size which I have determined to be similair to the amount of intrest I have in something will grow or shrink." (Verde)
"Another example is that damn hitman reborn. That asshole likes to dress up in many disguises which correlates to Leons ability to shapeshift. Skull's octopuss is a big muscleheaded idiot like it owner, Viper's frog can create illusions and ect. So for your partner to be similair to a video game is logical." (Verde)
Terra nodded and thought about her fathers reasonings and agreed that it made sense.
"So what can this thing do exactly?" (Verde)
Terra's eyes lit up and she went on to describe her new partners abilities.
"Level 1 of 100, decent stats, High sp.attack, is psychic, can grant healing, has move that can double allies attacks, cute too." (Terra)
Verde's eyes practically popped out of his glasses as he tried to supress his urge to tear open and disect the new creature for his research.
"Well th-that's pretty good is that all?" (Verde)
Terra shook her head no.
"It can tell the weather by using it's soft fur, apparently this can also allow us to learn what type of dying will flames people have. Oh it also reflect any status effects back on it's enemies." (Terra)
A nerve practically appeared on Verde's forhead as he tried to keep down his godamn instincts. It could fucking figure out dying will flames with its fur how!!
He stood in place mumbling quitely about how it was now family and how that's off limits before he finally calmed down a half an hour later.
"What's it's name?" (Verde)
Terra sat and thought about it for awhile before saying.
"Sakura." (Terra)
And finish.
Sorry its been awhile, I already had this chapter done its just that it decided to go and erase itself before I could upload it. So unfortunatley this is a version with less detail as I forgot how I originally wrote it.
Next chap will probably be the last of the childhood arc and finally get us to the godamn normal everyday arc. To fill in the blanks of wanting to see the main cast as chibis i'll add Side story chapters every now and then.
