Disclaimer: I do not own katekyo hitman rebrn (I freakin wish)

Author: Okay, I know I havn't updated in a long while. Been freakishly busy with scholarships and graduation and college started next month. I get almost no vacation. Anyway I hate the idea of starting a new story when this one still needs to be finished and I've got a ton of ideas for other animes so I'll try to finish this one, though I feel like i've just opened a gateway to a freakishly long story with this chapter. Also, I think this particular chapter may sound like I'm going off topic and it doesn't exactly follow the title, but it's just a twist and change I came up with and it'll definitley go back to it's touch feelyness later. If I can find the freakin time to update that is. Personally, I'm happy I can find time to even read fanfictions. Anyway, review plz...

The group of boys continued to walk along the paths of Namimori in silence. Tsuna, still gliding above them, could feel the death auras emanating from Gokudera and Hibari. He sweat dropped. This can only turn into something destructive. Tsuna watched as his body, currently possessed by Hibari's pet bird, was no longer glowing with happiness towards his master. He wasn't exactly sure, but something seemed off. Hibird had changed his attitude rather quickly, and now Tsuna was feeling guilt for some reason.

In an attempt to console the bird, Tsuna flew in low to ride a small gust of wind just above Hibird's hair. He knew there was only so much he could possibly do for the bird, but since it was there only means of communication, Tsuna began to sing….. "Midori Tanabiku….Namimori no…Dainaku Shounaku…Nami ga ii….".

Catching the boy's attention, Hibird turned his teary eyes towards Tsuna, and listened to him sing his master's favorite song. Hibird had long since memorized the lyrics to please Hibari. This song meant more to him than it did to anyone else. So he began to sing as well.

Both Tsuna and Hibird felt their dejected souls lift somewhat, as they sang in unison. Their voices melded to form a melodious sound that even caught the hidden Reborn's attention. They continued on for a few minutes more, looking towards each other with bright eyes as they sang. It was in this song, their only form of communication, that they came to an understanding and Tsuna had made a decision. (To be mentioned later)

Hibari watched in slight curiosity when Tsuna had unexpectedly begun to sing to Hibird. It was enough to distract him from the overly crowding herbivores that followed closely behind. He listened silently to the soft tones, with absolutely no idea why they suddenly felt so compelled to start a duet. All he did understand, and was enough for him, was that the two sounded beautiful and calming. If they had sung any longer, he might have turned off his objective.

Without bothering or even caring enough to tell the others where they where headed, Hibari was walking toward Tsuna's home. Surely the others must have noticed by now, and if not than who was he to care for some idiotic herbivores. Of course this was referring to Gokudera and Yamamoto, whom Hibari was only barely tolerating at the moment. These two will definitely be bitten to death today.

From a short distance, hidden amongst trees and shadows, a very baby like Mafioso watched closely. They're heading for Tsuna's home. Maybe I should make them turn off course? Reborn smirked as he made his move.

Reborn knew very well that Hibari would sense his presence, so he had to move quickly.

Hibari flinched at the presence of a fast approaching entity. He knew this presence to be none other than the infant, so he put up his guard. Not slowing his pace, Hibari continued to lead down the road while being sure to watch for any movement. The infant would most likely just pop out at random.

Hibird twitched slightly at his master's sudden tensing. He knew very well when his master was looking for a specific target. It wasn't just a feeling, but an adapted instinct. His master was watching for something. Out of natural habit, Hibird began to look around as well. For what, he wasn't sure of.

"Where are you?" His master suddenly stopped and stated with his dark and strong voice.

Hibird began to take in his surroundings and look vigorously for whom ever his master was. However, there seemed to be no one around. He could only continue to hold onto his master and wonder what he was doing.

"HEY BASTARD! WHAT'S GOING ON?" Having flown back up to his vantage point Tsuna could hear Gokudera quite easily. He looked down to find that the group below had stopped in their tracks and that Hibari was looking intently for something.

"MaaMaa, Gokudera….Hibari must know what he's doing…" "SHUT UP YOU STUPID BASEBALL-FREAK!"

While Tsuna could only smile sarcastically as his friends continued their usual bout, his attention shifted to that of Hibari's very serious and intense gaze. He looked around the area from above, but could find nothing that could possibly be of importance to the prefect in this current situation. Is something going on that I'm obviously not getting?

Hibari could feel it. The infant was close. It was as if the little guy wanted him to feel his presence. This only made the raven-haired boy even more irritated. He would not allow a single soul to play with him like this, no matter how much respect he might carry for the other.

By now, the prefect had his tonfas ready and had pushed back the young boy who had clung to his side the whole while. Someone is going to get bitten to death.

"Come out infant." He said with a very straight face.

"Okay, but only because you asked nicely."

Hibari turned to find Reborn sitting comfortably on Hibird's shoulder, his usual expression aimed right at Hibari.

"Ciao~su"

Hibari stood still, his tonfa at his sides. He was not about to rush someone he knew to be a formidable apponent. He watched carefully as Reborn hopped off Hibird's shoulder onto the ground and peered up at him. He paid attention to every movement made; every breath taken. Hibari was not about to let the baby get away.

"I'm not going to waste anymore of my time on this infant. Tell me how to fix Tsunayoshi and Hibird or be bitten to death." They stood in silence once more.

"Hmmm….Aren't you a few years too early to be talking to a renowned hitman like that?" Reborn smirked.

Hibari narrowed his eyes into an evil glare. "I won't ask you again?"

He raised one of his tonfa to his chest and the other to the side, ready to strike if need be.

Reborn only tipped his hat down to cover his eyes. "Sorry Hibari." His eyes widen in slight surprise.

Reborn glanced upward at his student hovering above, who was now gawking at the series of events taking place down below, then to the confused Hibird in front of him.

"It seems I have to play with you a while longer."

With a swift movement, before Hibari could even react, Reborn's trusted lizard Leon had transformed into his trademark firearm and was now aimed at the stunned prefect. This action had earned the hitman a brief, dead silence.

"The show must go on a bit longer…." Hibari watched as Reborn reached began to pull on his trigger finger. He readied himself to dodge whatever came at him.

"Not only do I still owe Hibird his favor….." Both Hibird and Hibari flinched at the words.

"But it's also….." Reborn tugged more on the trigger…..

"My day off…." He smirked and pulled the trigger back.

Other than Hibari, the other boys jumped at the sound of a loud bang. Even Tsuna above fell a few feet at the shot ringing into the sky.

When the echoing finally rescinded, the boys all looked towards Hibari in anticipation; their hearts all threatening to break through their rib cages, out their chests, and onto the floor. As their eyes fell upon the prefect they slowly started to calm themselves, only to be simultaneously hit with the same feeling. Confusion…..

Hibari stood bewildered and covered in what looked like hundreds of tiny glitter covered pieces of confetti. Protruding from Reborn's gun was a sign sporting the word "Bang". He couldn't help but smirk playfully.

"See ya…"

The boys watched as Reborn made his getaway, disappearing once again into the brush.

Slowly the boys all began to focus their attention on the prefect, his back facing them. They could only imagine what kind of face he was making. But they could definitely feel the killing intent that was slowly beginning to boil. Hibari was fuming, and none of the boys, not even Hibird was willing to say a word or make any gestures in his direction.

After several minutes of frightening silence, Hibari took a step forward, instantly making the rest of the group tense up. He just continued walking, the others could only watch in astonishment and a daze as he continued on.

"I don't care about you herbivores following and crowding around us, but Hibird and Tsuna better follow me."

Chills went up their spines as each boy was awakened from their daze. "WHAT WAS THAT YOU BASTARD?"

Slowly the group began to fall back into it's previous atmosphere. The shock of Hibari's recent experience still lingering at the back of their minds. Hibari just kept walking; his tonfa never leaving his grip.

Reborn knew what he had just done was a serious offense to Hibari. Normally that kind of action would only be taken towards members of the family that could laugh it off, but this was Hibari Kyoya. Reborn was perfectly aware that he had just earned himself the serious attention of a very dangerous character and frankly…..he couldn't be more excited. Originally, the plan was to fulfill Hibirds' wish while giving Tsuna a new point of view and earning himself some entertainment. But he realized pissing of Hibari was just to good to pass up.

If I've already earned myself the special attention of the school demon and disciplinarian….I might as well have even more fun with it… Reborn smirked; this time evily as he headed toward his new destination.

"I hope your ready to play….I fully intend to enjoy today's fun." Reborn said to his new playmate and temporary partner in crime.

"Kufufufu…oh most definitely…."

Author: I know, it's crazy obvious who's going to show in the next chapter. I've been thinking about writing about him somehow for a while, so why not in this story. It's actually this guy that's making me think this fic is gonna be crazy long. This is what i get for going through to many doujinshi. For anyone who wants to give me ideas on what mr."kufufufu" might do in the next chapter, go for it...
