"Okay, so these people just showed up from nowhere and you decided it was a great idea to house them?" Dustin asked at bit ticked.

"Yes."

..

.

"That's just stupid."he deadpanned.

"If it helps, I could hardly believe it myself." Tsuna rose a shaky hand. The interrogating boy shortly glared at the young don. "Or not; okay." Tsuna's voice became small from the pure intimidation he was feeling.

"You have one heck of a heart to open up our home to some strangers." Dustin sighed. "That's how you are, I guess," he said more to himself, "They've been here a week you said?" Kaminika nodded and then bowed from her seat on the floor.

"Please do not kick them out." she begged. Dustin towered over his sister, boring holes in her head. He shifted his gaze over to the group of people behind him who, all of a sudden, looked like a band of angels at the moment. HIs stare hardened and they began sweating profusely still posing as the good people that most of them new they weren't. Dustin looked back at his still bowing sister and heavied a sigh.

"I guess they can stay seeing as how you're going so far to keep them here," Kaminika lifted her head in joy etched on her face and KHR group sighed heavily in relief.

"I thought we were going to get kicked out for a moment there." Tsuna stated in great relief.

"But," the coldness in the brother's voice made them freeze and look over to him cautiously, a glare on his handsome features directed in their direction, the second they know how to return to where ever they came from, they're gone." Dustin finalized making the group sweat nervously again. "Am I clear?" Kaminika nodded in understanding and stood up dusting herself off.

"Let us head inside then? I am sure you are all famished and I believe Mary and the others are finished with dinner." Kaminika broke the tense atmosphere with the promise of food. Everyone followed the two siblings through the garden and back to the building where a pleasant aroma filled their noses.

"It smells wonderful in here." Kyoko commented.

"Wonderful doesn't give it justice." Haru stated with her hands clasped together and drool falling out of her mouth.

"I agree with Haru," Tsuna spoke up, "it smells great."

"I am glad you all like it," a voice spoke from a opening from down the hall. It was Mary smiling her widest at the compliments, "because this is what you'll be eating for dinner tonight in honor of Master Dustin's returning home." Several of them cheered as they all walked into the dining room.

The dining room was very large and appealing to the eye. The walls were a soft royal blue with exoctic silver designs roaming them and the floor was a beautiful oak wood that was cool to the touch. In the very middle of the room stood a grand table made of solid mahogany and above it was a exquisite crystal chandelier that made it look like it was raining from the light illuminated off of it. Above that was a skylight that brought the whole room together in a breath-taking harmony.

All types of food littered the grand table ranging from appetizers to entrees to desserts. Haru and Kyoko thought they would faint from all the cakes piled at the end of the table. Everyone hurriedly shuffled to empty seats and just as quickly began shoveling food down their throats. Some of them (*cough*Tsuna*cough*Enma*cough**cough*Chrome) had enough manners to to thank those who made the meal on behalf of everyone else before they started eating. Dustin leaned over slightly and whispered in his sibling's ear.

"Do they not say grace?"

"Not all people have a religion, otouto." she whispered back before realizing something was off. "...?" She began to look around to see if she had missed it as small conversation took over the room. Dino, sitting across from the girl, noticed her frantic searching and spoke up.

"Is something wrong?" he asked only slightly concerned seeing as he couldn't trust just yet. The girl side glanced the teen before giving a small smile of reassurance.

"It's nothing, really. It's just that…" she trailed off looking around again. Dino, overall, found it odd and raised a brow.

"Has anyone seen Skull-kun?" Enma asked out of the blue making Kaminika swivel her head in the boy's direction. She shook her head giving him an apologetic smile.

And now everything made sense.

"Shall I go search for him?" Kaminika asked rising from her seat.

"I don't see any reason for you to go and look for that waste of space." Reborn spoke while slicing through a piece of thick ham. The girl paused midway from out of her seat and stared questioningly at the man. A nervous smile spread on her face as her confusion was evident.

"Are you sure? He is missing out on a meal. It would be wrong not to look for him."

"I SHOULD SAY SO!" All eyes landed on the entryway into the dining room as they came to see the man in question drowning from carrying drinks. "MAN YOU PEOPLE ARE RUDE! I go back out to the testing grounds to find all of you missing."

"Ah, Skull-san, I was just abo-"

"You make it sound like we care." Fran, of all people, spoke up. Skull narrowed his eyes as he stared at each and everyone of them.

"...I brought your drinks."

"SKULL! I was getting ready to go and look for you, buddy!" Colonello shouted in the over friendliest manner he could pull off as the others cheered.

"All of you can go fall in a ditch." the cloud spat coldly as he began to pass out the beverages in an obviously ticked off way. When he got to Kaminika, however, he sat the glass down as gently as he could making the girl look up at him questioningly. "You didn't ask for a drink so I asked the staff for recommendations. The girl slowly sat back down, mind blown.

"You really did not have to do that. Thank you very much, Skull-san." He nodded his head the turned to the occupant next to the girl.

"I don't know who you are, but I don't have a drink for you."

"That's quite alright. I will fetch it myself." Dustin said about to rise from his chair.

"There's no need, master. I've brought you one." Mary entered the room with a glass in hand. "I didn't want Mr. Skull to do all the work." Dustin, Kaminika, and Skull had to sweatdrop at that.

"That is what I would like to call 'lazy'." the girl sighed beginning to eat her food.

"I do not see what is so hard about carrying one glass, Mary." Tsuna had to stifle his laughter at the sarcasm laced in the boys words.

"The display that Skull-san put on handling so many drinks with his body alone just made your entrance look pitiful." Kaminika said with a small laugh making the mentioned teen blush powerfully. No one has praised him for a long time.

"Skull, why don't you sit down and eat with the rest of us?" Tsuna suggested as Skull began to move towards an empty seat.

"You've read my mind."

*TIME SKIP*

Dinner was rowdy, as usual. It was nothing less than chaos. Dustin just seemed to watch everything unfold before his eyes as his good dining room was destroyed in front of him.

Why are they here again?

At this point, everyone was close to done with taking baths or showers and getting ready for bed, all except for a certain cursed hitman. Reborn was walking down the corridors still in his suit heading for the showers. Everyone seemed like they wanted to spite him today by using the one next to his and Tsuna's shared room so he had to go out of his way to get to another one. Best thing about this place is probably the endless supply of hot water.

As he walked, he realized that it was getting really dark really fast.

'Maybe time is different here.' Finally, to his utter joy, the bathroom came into view.

"At last, bath time."

*IN ANOTHER PART OF THE HOUSE*

"He went to take a bath; at least that's what I'm assuming." Tsuna muttered looking up from his manga. Colonello came barging into the brunette's room saying something about 'justice' only to find that Reborn was no where to be seen.

"Really? I didn't see him when I was in there." Yamamoto stated matter-of-factly appearing in the doorway drying his hair with a thick, fluffy towel.

"He probably went to another bathroom seeing that everyone wants to use the one by our room at the same time. It's like there's a line outside the door everytime I look." Tsuna went back to his reading while Colonello stood there and Yamamoto laughed at the former man's expression.

"OI, SHUT UP! SOME OF US ARE TRYING TO RELAX, MAN; GO TO SLEEP!"

*REBORN!*

"I need Nono to get one of those baths for headquarters." In all realness, that had to be the most relaxing bath that he has had in his life. He would've stayed if water didn't wrinkle skin after a while.

It had become pitch black while he was in the bath and it was getting get hard to see. Now, Reborn was trained for situations like this, but...this particular darkness was pretty difficult to see through. He was becoming very tempted to light his flame and find his way back to his room that way except the chance of someone catching him and finding out was too great.

"Walking blind it is." he mumbled moving at a slow and steady pace. It took way longer than it should have to get even close to the floor his room was on. In fact, Reborn was practically confident that he skipped it by a few floors. He continued to walk down the hallway to get back to the stairs he previously escalated seeing as he had no idea where he was.

"This...is...ridiculous." he spat already fed up with being misguided. He was not lost; his pride refused to admit to being in a lowly situation that only his dame student would find himself in. Lost in his thoughts proved to be a mistake as Reborn found himself to be even more misguided, but fortunately, brought him toward a room with a barely noticeable soft glow.

'Civilization at last.' He sped up his pace in hope for someone in that room, if there was anyone, to give him directions. Arriving at the door, he was met with the most incredible sight he's ever seen. Stars everywhere. It was like he stepped into outer space. Reborn swore he would've let his jaw drop down a few floors if it wasn't for his 'grooming'. It was truly beautiful sight. Just what room was this?

A small creaking had the hitman on his toes and eyes darting to the source in the room.

". . ."

Reborn made himself as little as possible while a figure made it's way out of the previous room. Clad in only a towel, Kaminika stepped into the room. Fighting a gasp that was bound to escape his mouth if he were anyone else, Reborn made it his mission to full on retreat from asking directions and try to make it back down to his room the difficult way, but something stopped him.

". . . . . . . . . What the h*** are those?"


Okay this is a sucky chapter, I know. Bear with me guys; I'm pathetic. Leave angry reviews below and such as I said before. Forgive me for taking as long as I did to get this up. I deserve no mercy from you guys. Until the next chapter.
