Tsuna was a very... clumsy guy, and he was also the future boss of the Vongola, the strongest mafia in the world. The second fact wasn't important, it was really the first that was the problem.
As it stood, Tsuna wondered what exactly happened, as he saw a small, almost childish him trip over everything, including nothing, questioning a him that looked to be in his mid-twenties, in an expensive looking tuxedo, who was glaring daggers into the head of a him with a sadistic grin on his face, who, in turn, was staring a a cool-looking him with headphones on in the corner.
Perhaps he should review what happened after he had woke up.
When he had woken up, the first thing he noticed was how warm he was. That wasn't abnormal, though the covers felt slightly off, he decide to crack open one eye, just to make sure he wasn't about to be blown up by Reborn, or that he had to wake up. He saw only black. Pulling down his covers slightly, he saw that the light wasn't blocked out by them, as they were on his chest.
So, he tried lifting his arms. He found them held down by something, warm, and soft. Now officially freaking out, even more so by the slight grumbles of several voices that sound suspiciously like his own, he jerked his hands up and removed the body on his head.
It was a baby, he realized, a brown-ish blond baby. It was wearing a full black tuxedo, he had a a black tie with a white undershirt. He wore matching black pants, with equally black, perfectly shined shoes. He also had an orange pacifier around his neck.
Tsuna, in a remarkable display of restraint for the sleeping baby, had waited this long to start screaming. "Hieee!" he screamed, seeing the baby look-alike in front of him. The baby opened one eye, and turned his head thoughtfully, "Put me down." he commanded sleepily, before disappearing out of Tsuna's hands.
After a second, Tsuna heard similar screams, ranging from his own "Hieee!" to "Get out of my house!" to simply pulling out a gun, or gauntlet, or his Vongola ring. Suddenly, a small voice was heard crying, and yells were heard on the other side of the room. Looking at the crying child, he saw the baby was already being comforted by his cooler-looking baby counterpart, the baby easily recognizable by his tuxedo.
Turning to the second noise, various yells from across the room, he saw various Reborn look-alikes, most of which had guns drawn. "Hiee!" many of his alternates screamed.
He saw one look-alike of himself simply walk into the corner of the room and pull out a phone and headphones. Is he really going to listen to something right now? he wondered. His attention was drawn away, however, when a much larger, almost fully grown Reborn jumped out of his bed.
"What the?" a voice, another of him questioned beside him, a strange half-black half-orange flame burning on his head.
Suddenly, the voice beside him jumped out of his bed, managing to do a cartwheel over him and any bodies and land in the middle of the room. "Stop!" he commanded, a strange mixture of absolute security and his own voice mixing together. "What's going on!" he demanded, his voice leaving no room to question his authority.
Then, a strange, older him chuckled. "I don't remember this happening, but we might be in some sort of paradox, I've been in my fair share already." All eyes looked to the mysterious older him, "Heh. Allow me to go first, my name is Tsunayoshi Sawada, tenth generation Vongola boss, it's a pleasure to meet you." he smiled.
Many of the mouths dropped, but Tsuna was sure none dropped more than his own, though perhaps the teen-age Reborn was a close competitor.
Another him jumped up, this one with a crazy look in his eye, and Tsuna knew instantly not to trust him. "OHh! I'm AlSo TsUnAyOsHi SaWaDa! CrAzY RiGhT?" he smiled, tilting his head slightly to the left, "I'm also known as the Red King in my world." he added. Future him narrowed his eyes slightly, before smiling. "Cool."
The him with the black and orange flame burning on his forehead slumped slightly. "Personally, my name is Faust Sawada... I suppose I'm bit different, what about the babies in the corner?"
The babies, all Reborn, scowled, many of them pointing their pistol at him. Faust, the only one in the room not actually named Tsunayoshi or Reborn, backed up, lifting his hands in surrender.
One of the older-looking Reborn, this one appearing to be in his teenage years, answered first. "I... well I guess all of us are called Reborn." he growled out. The older him smiled. "Ahh the good old days." he smiled, hiding his glare at the Red King.
Faust backed up slightly, the flames on his forehead doubling in size, "A-and where exactly are we?" he asked. Future him smiled brighter, "It appears to be my old house, before I moved into the Vongola headquarters." he smiled, leaning back slightly and propping himself up by his arms. Faust stepped back slightly, taking obvious defensive measures. "And where is this?" he asked.
The tenth Vongola boss frowned slightly. "Namimori." he answered, then, seeing Faust's confused expression, added, "Japan."
Faust, very calmly, laid down slowly, taking his time to search for any trash in the way, not that there was any because of Reborn. Then, once he was on the ground, cleared his throat politely, and started screaming "Hieeeee!"
The small, baby-like him tried to get up and see what was wrong, but tripped over his own left foot and started crying. The older him quickly comforted him, and weathered the questions his younger self kept asking him. The Red King took sudden notice of the calm him and the corner, and decided to observe him as much as possible.
A few more minutes passed, and Faust's flames kept getting smaller and smaller.
...Time Skip...
It turns out the cool-headed him had called everyone from his world and had given them a place to make plans for the situation. It also just so happened to be his room, and his mother seemingly did not care because, "I have so many boys to spoil! I'd better get cooking!"
Still, right now every single alternate of the family was there, excluding Faust, who was still crying in the corner about his 'lost work'.
Now, Tsuna started at his alternates, wondering what to say. Luckily, the conversation was currently being led by a mixture of his future self, Gokedara from a different timeline where he was 'assertive' and baby him. He found it strange that two of them were him.
Future him continued with his proposition "In conclusion, we should probably hide our existence somewhat, letting only close family members and the Vongola know of this incident. We should probably get most of the younger of us enrolled in a Vongola school. Anyone have any other propositions?" he asked. Once Chrome raised her hand. "Um-"
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a new him that seemed like some strange mixture of Byakuran and himself, with his right half having spiky white hair and pale skin with very light purple eyes and his left half with his own spiky brown hair and bro-orange eyes. He came flying through the room on a system of explosions making perfectly timed system of propulsion with almost absolute control. He wore a two-colored suite with the right half a pure white and the left have a pitch black.
He ran forward into Tsuna and pushed him against the wall behind him. "What are these flames on my head?" he asked, his voice very loud and forceful, instead of Tsuna's normal, soft voice. Surprised by the sudden outburst, Tsuna could only stutter the answer. "Hieee!" Instead, future him answered in a clear voice. "The flames are Dyingwill Flames, specifically the flames of Sky and Night." he explained, pointing to the two different colors on his head.
Faust smiled brightly. Taking his hands off of Tsuna, he threw both his hands into the air, black and white flame burning in each hand. "It your from my world, I've got a new proposition for you!" he yelled, pointing the guardians.
Seven of the alternates jumped up instantly, flames burning brightly in their eyes and fists, "Boss!" they yelled. Faust raised up both his hands, "Alright! We're going to take over the world!"
Suddenly, a portal appeared, and a couch and a young, white and brown haired man dropped out. "Yo Faust! Let's compete to destroy the world." he smiled. Faust frowned, " But I wanted to rule it with an iron fist!" he complained childishly. The seven chuckled, "We all knew it was going to happen eventually." the version of Gokudera from that world sighed, "Alright, let's do this!"
...Time Skip...
It had been long and hard, but finally, they got to the source of all their problems. The gate holding open the paradox, and, finally, they were at the center of the distortion.
They walked inside, hoping to use their Dying Will Flames to correct the mistake.
What they found inside however, was not what they were expecting. "Hmhmhmhmhm! Hmhmhmhmh...HmhHMMMMM! .a.a" humming slightly to himself, a bright golden haired teenage Tsuna lay on a pure white couch, reading a book called Reborn and their many alternates! Gokudera was stunned, "Wha?"
The most violent reaction, strangely enough, was from the normally unmovable Gamer!Tsuna. Who had the powers of every flame, Earth, Sky, Aura, even Magic and the Laws of Physics. The white haired servent beside him, and the nine earlier Vongula bosses floated beside him. "X-X-X-Xemness the Savior!"
The figure, now named Xemness, narrowed his eyes in annoyance, "I' Xemness the Author! Hah... no one ever believes me anyway. What do you want?" he asked, an annoyed look coming unto his face.
Future Tsuna waved his hands in a calming jester, "Now now. Xemness the Author, we wish for you to take us back to our home worlds, or at least allow us to close this disturbance.
The man put down the book he was reading, a questioning look on his face. "And why would you want to go back, Future Tsuna? I You still have a few months before you have to go back. What about you, Gamer Tsuna, don't you complain a lot about the power gap below you and above you, don't you want people just as strong as you to train with?" he asked, his words digging deep into them.
Xemness the Author turned to Faust, "What about you? Didn't you desire the power to change the world? Something to remind you of your goal! Don't you want to change the world and bury yourself into its existence?" He asked, his voice getting louder.
The man sighed. "Very well, I was not the true cause of this disturbance anyway, I just wanted to mess with you, so I left it on longer and added in some characters." he chuckled.
The man walked off, and the room around them started to shrink, lines appearing all around them, connecting the world together. "Ha! When people still believed in String Theory! Ha!"
This was incredibly short, but that's mostly for two reasons. One, is that after the initial even, everything can change drastically based on which characters you add in. For instance, I added in Faust, who was essentially an OP version of Tsuna who would find life boring, and the Red King, an insane Tsuna who would destroy the world if he felt like it. In the actual plot, The Red King would probably have been killed from very early in the story, while someone like Faust would harbor some suspicion, but would never actually be killed, unless he actually decided to destroy the world, which is a valid option if you want to use it.
The second reason, is that, while I could do an entire story slowly fleshing out each character and their lives, I can't. Partially because I don't want to command you into a specific story-line, and partially because there's just so many options. I could do Monster Tamer Tsuna, Overlord Tsuna, OP Tsuna, Reincarnation Tsuna, different flame Tsuna, added flame Tsuna, different past Tsuna. I could even do clichés I haven't read in years, like Demon Lord Tsuna, and it would all be merely adding more options.
The whole point of this challenger is to add in as many characters as you want, and allow them to just flow however they would. I'm actually doing this, though with RWBY instead of Reborn, already, and I find letting the characters do what they normally do, and not forcing them into specific things, something very hard to do as a writer.
Random Sentence!: If someone actually accepts this challenge, I'll stop my RWBY story and probably start a DnD story, or another Familiar of Zero story.
