Update!~

A/N (1): Please disregard the occurring grammatical errors and typos. Since I really don't have that much time, I've only managed to correct some of them at the moment and there still are mistakes lurking. Getting someone to Beta for my stories is actually a nice idea but since my updates have rare occurrences, it's not actually an advisable one. I simply don't want to go popping out and asking for someone to correct my mistakes during really inconvenient moments. So there.

A/N (2): I've edited the first chapter and added quite a few details. You don't really have to re-read it but it would be better if you do... on second thoughts, go read!^^

Summary:He is an Assassin, a feared Hitman of the darkened world, an Arcobaleno. He's meant to being alone. Well, not entirely but he did estranged himself from the rest of the world. Companionship and Sympathy should never be in his vocabulary, so pray tell why not only once did he reach out his hand and said, "Would you like to come with me?"

Warning: OOC! Reborn~

~The Sun that Guided~

"Dame-Tsuna I'll be out for a few hours, food's already prepared for you; just heat it up. If there's an emergency you know what number to call."

"Stop calling me Dame-Tsuna! Sheesh! Mr. Reborn!" The boy tried to glare at his savior but ended up pouting making the Hitman smirk at him instead. Tsuna crossed his arms and frowned at his given nickname which Reborn had the liberty of baptizing him when he kept on tripping the other day.

Tsuna's very much not happy about it. Hey, it's not his fault he can't walk that well without tripping, months of being chained somehow affected his mobility thus he can't walk far without tripping in midair and on worst occasions, kissing the floor.

Reborn chuckled and ruffled the boy's messy brown locks. "Don't go out okay."

"I know but where are you going?"

"Taking care of some unfinished business, I'll be back as soon as I can."

"Ah, Take Care." Tsuna stated with sincerity evident in his voice.

Reborn can't help but give an affectionate glance at the boy even if said gesture was well hidden within the safety of his fedora. It's been about a week since he decided to take Tsuna and care for the young boy. The first few days had been hard seeing that the boy had been wary about him, suspicious of his motives. Reborn never once blamed him though as the boy had been on situations where he had been hurt a lot and trusting someone, especially a stranger had been rather challenging.

It took time and lots of patience the Hitman never knew he had before the boy decided that he's not like any of them. Reborn had been rather pleased when it happened. He don't know why but seeing that face of trust from the boy gave him a feeling of relief.

"I will, when I get back be sure to finish your assignments."

"I'll try..."

"Don't just try Dame-Tsuna, do it or there will be consequences for every mistake made."

"Damn you, Reborn! I can't understand them anyway so why do I even have to bother?" Tsuna asked as he squatted on the floor with his arms crossed and his small lips in a cute pout. He gave Reborn the puppy eyed look "Can I just go watch TV?"

Reborn rolled his eyes, trying to not give in with the adorableness that the kid is currently showing him. He's a Hitman for whomsoever 's sake, cute faces shouldn't be a weakness! "It's for your own good Dame-Tsuna, I'm not forcing it to you just for fun. You need to learn"

"Still..."

"Don't argue with me."

"But I can't understand them! They're too hard!"

"It's not hard. It's grade one level, at your age you should've already studied them." Reborn raised an eyebrow.

"How can I understand, I've never learned anything before!" The boy pouted " They never sent me to school... I don't even know how to write my name." the boy's voice turned almost silent as he suddenly found that the floor looks shiny. Reborn's eyes slightly widened at the sudden revelation and felt that his anger towards the boy's parents had just escalated. Bullying and abusing a kid is one thing, stripping him off his rights as a child is another and Reborn never liked any of those options.

"Okay just for today you can go watch TV. When I get back we'll talk about this."

"Can't we just let it pass?"

"No" with that being said, Reborn was out.

...iOiOiOiOiOi...

Tsuna stared at the door. It's been twenty or so minutes since Mr. Reborn walked out and yet he's still squatting on the floor. He's still not sure why the man took him in, clothed him and fed him. He even gave him a comfortable bed to sleep on and even warm blankets he can use. Despite teasing him Dame-Tsuna, Mr. Reborn will also be sitting beside him, taking good care of his wounds whenever he tripped. He would also give him treats once in a while and if he's in the mood, read him bedtime stories.

No one had ever been that kind to him before.

No one dared to care.

No one bothered to check if he's okay.

No one... until he came into his life.

Tsuna knew what Mr. Reborn does for an occupation. He knew that his savior is a Hitman and that he had killed people. He had been wary of him at first, afraid that Mr. Reborn is just one of those fake people. Those people who pretended to be nice but are actually evil inside and will take up at any chance to hurt him, he met people like them before and then there's his own parents who pretended that they care for him in public but when the door closes, that's the part where things turn back to what it really is... Dark, painful, unkind, and full of horrifying things.

During his first few days with the man, he barely talked nor showed any of his emotions. If ever he does so, his voice would be blunt and the only emotion he would show is a frown and a look of indifference. Honestly, he did not trust the man yet, his experiences with an adult had always been dark if not bloody and having met another one of them had him guarding and cautious of his surroundings. He is actually quite surprised when he had shown the man more emotion than he let on during the first time they met, asking the man with worry if he already ate his breakfast, pft.

Then slowly by slowly, he learned to warm up with the man and trust him. Tsuna showed his savior all those emotions he had with him. All those childish characteristics he had hidden all too well, he showed them towards the man without any hesitations.

He realized that even if Mr. Reborn had killed, he's not a bad person. What kind of bad person takes good care of a child he just met and even does all necessary things to keep him safe?

And so, after years of being too guarded, he finally learned to trust someone.

...iOiOiOiOiOi...

Reborn hopped from one building to another, moving ever stealthily and hiding his presence from everyone else. He just finished his mission and is now on his way home to check up on his ward. Speaking of which, he should restock all his supplies and buy things the boy probably needed. A chalkboard and few school supplies might also be necessary as he already planned on teaching the boy basic things that's school related like writing the letters of the alphabet, counting numbers and reading simple words. Ah, he'll also have to teach him how to properly write his name.

Reborn got no plan whatsoever of sending his ward on a real school nor having a private tutor for him. If Tsuna's family got out a word of his still existence, chances are they'll chase after the small boy again and Reborn will be damned if that is to happen. He already vowed to protect the boy no matter what it takes, even getting on the part of using all of his connections and adding it to his undeniable talent of blackmailing people with words just so he can stitch up a very believable story that Tsuna is infact already six feet down under.

Shocking that someone like him cares so much for a boy he barely knew right?

Well that's just a hidden wonder about Reborn, you'll never read him nor ever realize what his next moves will be. The Hitman rather loved this idea, it keeps up with the element of surprise.

Reborn looked down and found an empty and dark alley way and decided to use it instead. Being on top of buildings is great but sometimes he prefers the silence and the darkness of those dark and sometimes lifeless alleys. The Hitman jumped down and casually started walking, he hadn't sensed any aura of ill intention since he left his target place which only meant that his job had a 100% success rate and none had suspected that the Hitman had been there.

He casually walked, taking his own time while making a mental list as to what else he should buy when he passed by a crater full of junks. However, it's not the sight of trash that made the famed Hitman halt into a stop.

It was the fact that blood, fresh human blood was flowing from the crater's side. It looks like a crime had been commited not too long ago and part of the evidence, namely the victim (or the suspect) is undoubtly still behind the crater.

Reborn preceeded with caution. He can easily defeat the unknown man if the situation calls for a fight but that's not what he's here for. Besides, one of the rules said to not underestimate potential enemies...then again, he's the great Reborn.

One Step, two steps plus a few more before he finally arrived at his destination...only to stare at the bloodied person with disbelief and pure disgust as to whoever had done such merciless and inhuman crime top such a small kid.

Yes the victim is a kid around the same age as Tsuna.

The Hitman stopped near the boy and checked for a pulse. It was there, shallow but there which only meant that the boy is still alive. That's a good sign.

Carefully carrying the bloodied boy bridal style, Reborn hurried his way to the nearest hospital.
