++Chapter 2++
Retiring from another day full of work Tsuna reached his little home again, sun having gone down already gave of an eerie feeling in comparison to when it was still light outside. No single sound resounding through the neighborhood, like he was the only one in existence. With a sigh full of exhaustion Tsuna finally decided to open the door, hearing the jingles of three keys.
It was all different, during the day his house looked beautiful, but during the night ghosts would come haunt him. He slowly stepped inside, removed his shoes and walked to the couch. 'Forget dinner and just sleep', his senses tingled slightly as his vision began to waver, slowly falling into sleep yet slightly wakening from time to time.
'This is bad, I need to sleep in my bed.' I slightly rubbed my eyes and stared out into nothingness, letting my thoughts wander around. The house was once again devoid of any living creature, no fly, no ant, just me and the moon outside. I wanted to sleep, however whenever I start to close my eyes, I see them. Ten, no fourteen bottles all emptied out on the table in front of me. I could remember exactly how I just locked the door to my room, not opening it until there was no sound resounding around me anymore.
After what seemed an eternity of doing nothing I looked at the clock '3 am'. Thinking about the pros and cons of sleeping downstairs on the couch without a blanket or going upstairs to just stare at the ceiling wide awake, which one would be better? Obviously falling asleep right now. I grabbed my phone from the pockets of my jacket and started playing my playlist, slowly drifting off into the world of many dreams.
''How many years have passed?'' nails, red painted nails circled around me frame. ''Five.'' I closed my eyes, feeling her wrap me into a hug, caressing my unruly hair. ''Good boy, so you do remember.'' Her grip around me tightened ever so the slightest. ''Of course, how could I forget.'' Why would she think I would forget her?
She's everything that I am after all.
''I'm happy to know this. But dearest child, today 'he' is coming, after waiting for such a long time aren't you glad?'' Her hand stopped before her eyes zeroed onto mine. Chocolate brown eyes met dirty glassy eyes as if silently communicating what the next move would be.
''Who?'' this was intriguing, never before had she spoken about another person, let alone a man.
It was always about me, no one else.
''He who will replace me. Oh, it seems we're of time...''
''I'm sorry, you know I love you, right?'' her voice resounded with insecurity laced around them.
''Of course I know.'' But my words always fell upon deaf ears.
No words were exchanged anymore. It was always like this, this dream. Surrounded by nothing but nice and a familiar warmth. And then I look up, seeing a faceless person, no eyes, no nose. No mouth. Still running her fingers through my hair, she started slowly making her way down my legs. Scratching, peeling flesh and skin. Bleeding through her beautiful brown shirt.
''Please, please don't dirty your hands on me.'' her hands stopped for a single second before she grabbed my face and slowly pocked on of her fingers into my eyes. The squishing sounds resounded through the white room echoing over and over again. PLOP. Tiredly I looked up at her seeing something in her hand, she turned it around in wonder a few times before I saw myself staring back at me.
Slowly a mouth formed on her hand, eating the round eyeball, slowly devouring it. Her blood smeared hands rub my cheeks as she lets the tongue in her hand like my face. It burns, it slightly burns.
But it doesn't hurt, because she's so gently pulling apart my body. Slowly ever so gently. Starting at my legs, staining her hands with blood filled with red. She keeps going until she reaches it. I look down seeing my leg, no meat, no muscle, only bone. My head feels empty, my body is on fire and after a while of ripping the meat from my bones she drops me harshly onto the cold ground.
'' So, you did get tired of me, didn't you?'' no response.
''Why did you already stop?''
Saturday 6 March
They say that dreams are nice to have and are always peacefully. They aren't lying about dreams being nice, but my dreams always end too soon. I groggily looked around seeing that it was already morning, to be exact 6 am probably. Well, that's what I could at least guess by the shouts of 'extreme!' outside. He never managed to not wake me up in the morning, lucky me, my own personal alarm clock, farewell sleeping in.
Feeling slightly refreshed I tried to get up, but to find my own body protesting against it. Damn my body. Maybe I should lie down for another five minutes, it can't hurt…right? (A/N my morning routine) At least that's what I thought before falling sleep again, shit. (A/N again, my morning routine)

''tch, those useless people at the HQ. Stupid Nono for me to go the freaking Japan. Thanks god, really, he's the best. Mio dio…'' well….this was something different.
So practically there was a pessimistic 'baby' sitting on the branch of a tree, wearing a suit and all, staring at a bunch of papers. Well strange things happened and this was one of them.
The 'baby' jumped down from the tree branch adding a few flips along the way and landing like a cat, without any difficulties. Landing in front of the porch to the house with said nameplates of the 'Sawada family'. ''Time to get to work, there goes my precious time.'' …..well this was going to be a pain in the ass.
'Ding dong' Tsuna looked startled for a second, the sound of the bell which hadn't rang in several years finally rang. Shakily Tsuna approached the grand door and put his hand on the cold door knob. He jiggled around a little bit more with the keys in frustration before finally managing to open the door, however spotting no one in particular.
''Ciaossu.'', or so he had thought. Looking down at his feet he spotted, an infant? Tsuna shuffled around awkwardly before finally managing to look the little guy in the eyes. Reborn's eyes shone in fascination before him stood the 'cute tuna fish' that baka-mitsu had been talking about. Well, he was different than expected, not ugly or anything, but still different. Before him stood not the cute crybaby Iemitsu had talked about, there stood just a boy. Nothing more and nothing less.
''How boring, shouldn't you answer your new tutor?'' venom spat out between Reborn's lips as he stared 'down' at the meek brunette. Without further ado Reborn silently slipped past Tsuna into the house and started venturing through the living room.
'Wait a second! What the hell did that kid just say?! Hiiieeeee, what's going on?! What home tutor?!' Before I knew it, the infant had slipped past me and went to the living room. Without any hesitation I quickly followed after him and grabbed the laptop standing on the living room table.
I don't know what took me over, but a spur of determination got me and send me towards the infant who was in return sending of some strange vibes. Telling me NOT to mess with him. But any intruder was not welcome, quickly typing away on the laptop I walked towards the infant.
What now with this brat? First he opens the door standing there staring like a deer into headlights and the next moment he begins typing on his laptop like I'm not in this world. How rude.
I decided to finally just sit down and look at the little brat, finally seeing something alike to determination flicker across his eyes really amused me. He finally stops pacing through the room after typing and coming to a halt before me, slowly turning the laptop that held one single question.
'Who are you?' a single line blinking onto the screen, on and off. I looked down at him, checking to see any signal no matter what, a blink of the eye, twitching fingers, but no nothing to be seen. So this is how we were going to start?
''My name is Reborn, no last names needed.'' Tsuna stared at the infant with mild interest. 'Listen Tsu-kun today 'he' will come. Lights flashed in Tsuna's head as he finally turned to look Reborn into his eyes again. 'Who sent you?' the screen flickered again, showing black on white.
''Who else but your father dearest.'' Time seemed to come to a halt as Tsuna shook his head. 'I don't have a father.' The thoughts seemed to race through Reborn's head as he finally came to a realization, no detailed information on the boy or none. No family pictures in the room.
This boy didn't have a father, or so he believed.
Tsuna halted in his track turning around before setting a foot down onto the ground. 'However, even if you're a stranger to me, that doesn't matter. Welcome.' The brunette closed his eyes for a second before closing his laptop, showing nothing but a grim look on his face, not that the Reborn would have noticed anyways.
Reborn followed Tsuna's every move into his room. The room was too messy, his clothes laid sprawled around on the ground, books stacking up in the corner of the room, even his blanket and pillow were on the ground instead of the bed. Reborn looked up at Tsuna noticing a faint blush adoring his cheeks. '' You know, normally one would clean before a guest enters.''
No answer, again. Not that it mattered anyways, after all Reborn was going to start the fun without waiting. It didn't matter if the boy was prepared or not, it was just like pulling a Band-Aid off, fast and painlessly.
''Sawada Tsunayoshi, I'm from the mafia and to be exact I'm one of the best, no, scrap that. I am the greatest hitman there is.'' Staring down at Reborn Tsuna looked just downright shocked. All according to expectations though, thought Reborn whilst pulling down his fedora.
''And while we're at it, I wanted to inform you about the fact that you're next in line to inherit the position of the boss of one of the biggest mafia syndicates. Oh and I will be teaching you everything and with that I literally mean everything.'' And he officially dropped the bomb with a small smirk on his face Reborn eagerly awaited Tsuna's reaction.
'Hitman. Mafia. Inherit. Me a mafia boss. '
Tsuna's reactions you ask? Well obviously, it was falling down on his bed and ignoring Reborn's presence the whole night. 'That was a disappointment…. So boring' I had hoped for a more amusing reaction. Reborn just passed it off and walked towards his student, kicking him out of his bed in the process.
'Ugh, goddammit stupid infant!'
Later that night
Waking to Tsuna laying on the ground shivering from the cold Reborn turned around to face Tsuna. 'Tch, damn brat.' Reborn tossed the blanket over Tsuna and got out of the room to look some more through the house. After all knowing ones surroundings is one of the principles of being a hitman.
Once again noticing the lack of souls in the place. One thing was certain, there was something going on in here. The kid upstairs probably couldn't even talk and more importantly, the whereabouts of Sawada Nana's were still unknown.
Reborn looked around in frustration. Goddammit his new student was one big mystery, it wasn't that he was so mysterious or super at something that the hitman began to become suspicious of his student, but the fact that the kid was too plain. Tsuna held no talents, he was as plain as daylight.
And after a fruitless exploration through the house Reborn finally decided to just go back to the room where Tsuna was most likely still asleep. He slowly walked back upstairs and stopped at the opening of the door, seeing Tsuna still laying on the ground, lightened by the light of the moon.
'I have no father' those words kept endlessly replaying inside of his head. Iemitsu had really messed up big time with this, for his son to not even recognize him as his father. Great job, just well done, Iemitsu. 'Well anyways seems like this little punk hasn't given up without the presence of his parents.' ''Heh, got to hand it to you, brat.''
Reborn slightly opened the window to allow the cool night breeze to enter the room. The unbearable heat in the room seemed to finally go down a little bit and the peaceful sleeping figure on the ground didn't seem to mind it at all. His strange, spiky hair flowed together with the light breeze as in total peace.
It was true that this student of his had absolutely no aura, but even without Reborn could see it. The struggle he had lived with. This kid was a little fragile living being, supported by the thought of something, however what was the being that supported him was unknown.
Iemitsu had missed a big part of his life, he had missed Tsuna, but Reborn was sure. He would be there for him, after all, there was a little flame surrounding him. Such a warm flame.
''Seems like I'll be in your care for the time being, well then let's make the best out of it.'' Reborn decided to just lean against the wall after finally putting Tsuna in bed.
''Buona notte, brat.''
