Chapter 2

A 13 year old girl smiled from the shadows. She had a fairly healthy 5ft 5 average build, she was nothing special, if being an Ancient was nothing special. She was one of the first people to walk the Earth, and with that was gifted with the ability to time travel and universe jump, parallel universes that is.

Where she was found moments later would've stopped anyone who knew her identity in their tracks for she was in the reception of Namimori Middle School applying for the same class as her 'childhood' friend. After all skipping a year was nothing for an ancient.

'Hopefully Tsu-kun remembered her.'

The receptionist just smiled at the lovely girl. She didn't know why the girl required to transfer to the craziest class in the school. When she mentioned that, the girl just smiled and said she'd be back when school started for her.

Hadrian strolled back into headquarters a day later after finishing all his missions (Impossible, Mammon says) to find a full scale mess. Xanxus was glaring at a certain silver haired swordsman who was covered in whiskey and glass, Lussuria fawning over a 'Squ-chan', Bel was doing target practice with Levi (Guess who was the target?) and Mammon was being Mammon and muttering about how he hoped there were no damage costs from Hadrian's missions. All Hadrian did was smile and grab an apple.

"Xanxus, I need to go to Japan."

All movement stopped and all stared.

"Trash, we have business there-"

"I know. I want to visit my sister/master."

And all went "YOU HAVE A SISTER- WAIT, YOUR SISTER IS YOUR MASTER?! WHAT KINDA PATHETIC HUMAN ARE YOU. BESTED AND TAUGHT BY A GIRL!"

Hadrian stared at them as if they were idiots and then remembered they didn't know who she was.

"She's called Joker in the underworld."

And then took out ear plugs for the inevitable "WHAT!" that would soon follow with chaos.

And he wasn't disappointed.

Miles away, Timoteo thought he heard some people that sounded suspiciously like the Varia, but soon discarded that thought and went back to slaving away in paperwork.

Hadrian leaned back into the wall to smirk at the shocked looks on the faces of the Varia. Xanxus had a small glint of surprise in his eye, but an overall neutral face. Bel, Levi, Squalo, Lussuria gaped while Mammon had a ... was that a nostalgic smile? The world has clearly gone crazy. He sighed and left to get ready for his plane ride to Japan, after all, that's were she was. Well better get going, it would take a few days to find the town she was in.

The class of Sawada Tsunayoshi, Gokudera Hayato, Sasagawa Kyoko, Yamamoto Takeshi and Kurokawa Hana had just quietened down as their sensei walked in. He took a stance and the board and said:"This is your new classmate, a transfer from Australia, Kai Chen."

The entire class looked at the door in interest to look at the supposedly foreign classmate. What they saw surprised them. A male, or was it female stood in the doorway wearing a black, figureless hoodie, army print cargo pants, black knee high converse, black skater cap with a big emerald and silver skull, a black choker with a dangling silver encrusted diamond and a ruby and emerald piercing in the left ear. The class just gaped, Gokudera started threat assessment and Yamamoto, Hana and Kyoko wondered why the face was so familiar.

Tsuna was late for school and had just turned into the hallway his class was in being chased by the one and only Hibari Kyoya. He opened the door only to look into familiar bored dark brown eyes.

"Kai! I missed you!" yelled Tsuna and he promptly tripped and fell at the feet of his friend. Gokudera immediately leapt out of his seat in attempt to 'rescue' his Juudaime from the possible, no definite threat. After all that stupid person made his Juudaime trip! He started to stalk to the front of the classroom only to be pulled back by the baseball idiot. The Tenth was in danger!

Gokudera turned back to yell at the idiot only to see the deadly serious look of the swordsman. He turned back to the from yell at the stranger only to see...

Kai stared in surprise at Tsuna currently greeting the floor. Well, somethings never change, Tsuna was still as clumsy and usual. She turned back to the class and saw 4 people she remembered meeting at a young age. First, Gokudera Hayato. She had trained the boy after his mother passed away in dynamite before handing him back to Shamal and had been subjected to the puppy like following around to many times for her liking. She had been an acquaintance of Tsuyoshi, Yamamoto Takeshi father and had played baseball with him. She had also been taken home by the Sasagawa family one night when the mother thought she was a lost child and become friends with the children, Ryohei and Kyoko. Hana, well, she may have somehow created that child hating problem.

Kai sighed and turned back to Tsuna dragging him up and turned back to the class.

"Hello everyone, my name is Kai Chen. I've transferred from a private school in Australia. Please do not bother me with pointless questions and don't bother to try to be friends. I'll associate myself with the people I want to and if I hear anything, ANYTHING ,rumors etcetera, I will hunt you down and bite you to death." The class laughed, albeit, nervously at the 'stay away and do as I say or die' aura.

There was a growl from the doorway, and there was a glint of certain distinguishable tonfas. Tsuna paled in fear for his hopefully only normal friend, the other 4 in class who knew Kai also paled at the appearance of the prefect. Kai just smiled and after a truly Japanese style bow, the death warrant was signed "Long time no see, ne Kyoya-chan?"

As expected, Hibari leapt towards the transfer student tonfas raised. Everyone gasped and started planning what flowers to give as funeral gifts, when Kai disappeared and reappeared behind Hibari with- was that a playing card?! With dried blood- the class sighed. It was an acquaintance of Sawada after all. What could they expect, though the fact that this person could best Hibari made them realise that maybe, just maybe they should take the warning to heart.

Reborn, being Reborn just laughed silently and stared curiously at the person, bored eyes met his, no! He knew those eyes! It couldn't be! But the evidence was so clearly in front of him, no one had those eyes.

It was that day at lunch that Reborn appeared. "Baka-Tsuna, you have to concentrate more in class, just because there's a new student you know, it doesn't mean you can slack off." and promptly took out Leon who was getting ready to turn into a hammer until he saw Kai.

Tsuna nearly had a heart attack when Leon ignored Reborn, jumped out of the baby's hand and lept onto Kai and tried to smother his childhood friend to death. Reborn noted Leon's reaction.'Kai was who he thought. Yamamoto laughed and started talking again about the magical qualities of milk, Gokudera berated him for being an idiot in front of his Shishou, why did all these people know Kai?

Kai looked up and stated "Reborn, you have you questioning face on. How about I get each of you to explain why you know me?" Just as Sasagawa Ryohei burst through to door to roof.

"Kai-san! I extremely missed you! Join the boxing club!" followed by a blushing Chrome.

"Welcome back Kai, I missed you." she quietly stated.

Kai jumped up, fist bumped Ryohei and hugged Chrome, dragging her down into her lap as they settled down to tell their tales.

Tsuna sweat dropped at the fist bump, most people would have broken their hand doing that!

Kyoko started, "About 8 years ago,mama brought a little girl home, funny because we thought she was a boy," it was at this point that Ryohei took over, 'Yeah, I couldn't wait to spar with someone new to the extreme! We had fun, but she disappeared the next day!"

The entire group including Reborn sweat dropped and had the same thought: "Did you ask her if she was lost before you dragged her off?"

Gokudera took over then "Shishou was in Italy, I was sad cause my mum died and she played piano with me and started teaching me how to use dynamite before sending me off to Shamal." It was so obvious how enamoured Gokudera was with Kai there were sparkles and flowers along with the usual puppy dog ears. Kai sweat dropped, ruffled Gokudera's hair and turned to Yamamoto, just as she felt that familiar presence. She smiled.

"He's here."
