Hey everyone, long time no see. (dodges many rocks) Ha ha. I'M SO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING FOR THE PAST 7-8 MONTHS! (bows Gokudera style)
To give you the short version, I got lost on the road of life. That and I got writer's block. Chapter nine was a pain to write, but I finally got it done last month. I just didn't have any internet to post it. Enough with my excuses let's get back to the chapter.

Enjoy!
Tsuna woke up, got ready for school and started breakfast for the others and himself. He kept thinking of what happened last night. After his memories settled Tsuna figured who he really is and that the dreams he's been having were actually some of the memories he saw last night. The brunet was trying to find out why someone would seal their memories and replaced them with different ones. And who are the other kids with Take, Haya, and me, Tsuna thought. Not all of his memories returned and there was still things that didn't make sense to him. He was so lost in thought he didn't notice that Gokudera and Yamamoto came into the kitchen.
"Ohayo Tsuna," they greeted.
Tsuna jumped a little and let out a silent 'hie' before he turned off the stove and went to tackle them, "Ohayo Haya, Take. I missed you guys."
They both smiled and hugged him back. Happy that their friend remembered them too.
"We missed you too."
Then Tsuna hit both of them in the head.
"Itai," the two said in unison. "What was that for?"
"That," Tsuna looked at Yamamoto with a stern look, "was for almost committing suicide without think about the consequences and," then he looked at Gokudera with the same look, "for getting into a fight after not eating for three days then collapsing from running away from the police because of fatigue. What would have happen if I came later or not at all? You two could have died and I don't think getting my memories back, only to find out that my two best friends are already dead when I need them most sounds like a great day either. I don't want to lose you guys again, not when I have my memories back. That includes everyone else when I remember who they are."
Tsuna was in tears by the end. Both bomber and baseball player felt ashamed and guilty for making their best friend cry because of their past actions. They both gave their friend a hug to clam him down.
"We're so sorry Tsuna," they said.
"It's okay. You two are still alive and that's what matters, right," Tsuna said as he wiped his tears.
"Right," the two replied with a smile.
"We need to talk about what happened last night, but before that you two need to get ready for school. There are some uniforms in the closet next to the bathroom. Just find size and take a shower. I need to finish breakfast," Tsuna said as he let's go of them.
"'Kay," they said.
Before they left Tsuna asked, "Hey Take, can you wake up Lambo?"
"Sure thing Tsuna," he replied.
After Tsuna finished making breakfast he hacked the school system for Nami-chuu and Nami-elementary to enroll Lambo and Gokudera as transfer students to skip the long paper work process. He'll have to sneak the paper files into the office later or have Kuro do it for him today during school. As he finished Yamamoto, Gokudera, and Lambo came to the room. Tsuna closed his laptop and served breakfast as they went to take their seats.
"I already enrolled you two to your schools," Tsuna said as he took his seat.
"Thank you Tsuna/Tsuna-nii," Gokudera and Lambo said.
After breakfast Tsuna told Lambo to watch t.v. while he, Gokudera, and Yamamoto talked.
"Tsuna," Yamamoto said.
"Yes Take," he answered.
"Lambo has the same type of mark as we do."
"I know."
"Does he know what it means?"
"No."
"Do you think that's why he was sent here?"
"Yes."
"Wait, what are you talking about?" Gokudera asked.
"Haya, you know about that tornado/cyclone mark you have on your chest," Tsuna asked and the bomber nodded.
"Does Rosa know about it?"
"Yeah, she saw it one time when she was tending to some of my wounds. She started acting weird after she saw it."
Tsuna and Yamamoto looked at each other, then back at Gokudera.
"Did she say anything to you about it," Tsuna asked.
"She said to never let anyone to see it and to keep it hidden."
"Do you know why?"
Gokudera shook his head no. Then Tsuna started to explain what marks were and their history like he did with Yamamoto.
After Tsuna explained the marks to Gokudera the trio told each other of want they saw and what they remember. They were trying to figure out who or what would want to seal their memories and replace them.
"What I want to know is what happened to my little brother and Haya's little sister? I'm worried about them," Yamamoto said.
"What would they want with our siblings? Especially with..." Hayato stopped then had a panicked look. "I can't remember."
Tsuna looked a his friend with concern as he sees Gokudera mumbling about not being able to remember something. "What's wrong Haya? What can't you remember?"
"My sister's name I can't remember it. Or how she looks like."
"What are you talking about Hayato? I remember that you told us her name. It's..." Tsuna stopped as he realized he doesn't remember either. Then he turned to Yamamoto.
"Takeshi do you remember the name of Hayato's little sister," he asked.
Yamamoto thought for a moment before shaking his head no. Then it hit Tsuna.
"Take, what's the name of your little brother," he asked the baseball player.
"Oh, that's easy Tsuna. My brother's name is...it's..." Yamamoto gave the same panicked look that Gokudera had. "I can't remember."
"What about how he looks likes?"
The baseball player thought for a bit then shook his head and started to panic. "Why can't I remember my brother's name or how he looks? I know when we got most of our memories back that I knew it. So why can't I remember now?"
"That's because someone or something knows we got our memories back last night. So they sealed all the memories that they could again. That way we can't find anyone one from our past or find out what actually happened to make us lose our memories, replacing them with new ones," Tsuna said. "Or that's what I think."
"Why would they do that," Gokudera asked, finally getting out of his panic.
"That's what we're going to find out."
Namimori-Chuu's Rooftop, Lunch
"So how was your first day of school so far Gokudera-kun?" Tsuna asked as he opened his bento.
"Tch. They're all idiots," the bomber answered.
"Aww. What about me Goku? We're in the same class," Yamamoto pouted.
"You're the biggest idiot of the all! And don't call me that," Gokudera shouted.
The two started arguing. Well Gokudrea did, Yamamoto just started laughing. Tsuna tried to calm them down but decided to stop midway, seeing that it was hopeless to stop them, and started eating his lunch again. Then they felt a certain baby hitman leave and they stopped.
"I thought he was never gonna leave," Tsuna said while the other two nodded in agreement.
Reborn was surprised when he saw his student's brother walking to school with Smokin' Bomb Hayato, since he didn't come home yesterday. He wonder how Tsuna was able befriend someone from the Mafia in a short amount of time, especially Gokudera. He's hot-tempered, always shouting and hard to control. But around Tsuna he's like a loyal puppy waiting for his master's command. So he decided to follow them.
He found out that Gokudera was in his baka student's class along with Yamamoto Takeshi, a potential rain guardian and Tsuna's first and only friend, and Sasagawa Kyoko, his baka student's crush. The bomber is a perfect candidate for the storm guardian and Baka-Nari's right-hand man. But that won't work unless Tsuna joins the Family and/or if Nari treats Tsuna nicer. He needs to find out what happened between the twins to fix their relationship and start on Tsuna's self-defense lesson, since his academic level is slowly rising. With that in mind Reborn left his hiding spot on the roof to make some calls.
When the group of friends felt that the baby left they started to relax. They noticed that the arcobaleno has been following them since they walked through the school gate in the morning after they dropped off Lambo at Namimori elementary. It's a good thing that they decided to act like they usually were before they got their memories back. It was after the two gem holders calmed down about not having anything to go by to find their missing younger siblings, that Tsuna thought that everyone would find it suspicious if they acted differently than they usually were. Especially when Reborn is around and would question the sudden change in their character. So they decided to act how they were before they got most of their new-old memories back.
Now they can get to work on finding out what made them lose their memories from August 27th of the year they turned six and the years before that, while replacing them with new ones. Also to find out why August 28th is a complete blank to them.
"So we should start with what we know," Tsuna said as he took out a piece of paper and pencil. He started to write all the things they knew about their situation. As Tsuna was writing Gokudera thought of something.
"Do you think the gems we have any thing to do with what happened to us," he asked. Tsuna and Yamamoto both looked at the bomber.
"What do you mean," Yamamoto asked.
"Well, I've been thinking and I noticed that everyone, besides us and that group of kids we saw in our memories, act the same way they do today. Disregarding some of the minor details of course," the sliverette explained.
"I think you might be right Hayato. We also need to find out who's the guardian of the locket/our protector and who the other gem holders are. I want to know he or she picked us to be gem holders in the first place. I'll see if I can find more information about the gems," Tsuna said. The bell rang signifying that lunch was over. The trio went to back to their own classes.
"Come on XXXXX. You won't knock me out like that," said a boy with silver hair and gray eyes teased as he dodged his opponent's punch.
"Well see about that," smirked a boy with raven colored hair and steel-gray eyes.
The two kept on going back and forth. Occasionally they would get a punch or a kick in.
"Time," shouted a girl with raven colored hair.
"Who won," asked the sliverette.
"XXX-nii," she answered while said raven smirked.
"Told ya I'd win," he said to sliverette. "Now pay up."
"What did you guys bet on," the girl asked.
"Some coupons to Takesushi," the boy said as he gave the raven boy the coupons.
"And his fight time with Tsuna for the next month," the raven added.
"Tsuna-nii's going to murder you when he finds out you bet XXX-nii's fight time just so you can fight him more," the girl stated.
"Who says he'll find out," the boy smirked.
"What if I already did," said an annoyed Tsuna.
The boy's smirk faded when he heard Tsuna's voice.
I hope you enjoyed it. I want to thank everyone for waiting patiently for this chapter. Again, I'm sorry for making all of you wait.
Can you guess who the three kids in the dream were?
You still have time to tell me if you want pairings(tell me which ones) or not.
Later!
