Yamamoto took the first opportunity he got to check out the baseball field, as expected the team was already there, practicing.

Yamamoto stood by and watched them for a while. Their outfield was weak, but they had a strong infield and their batting lineup was very strategically placed. As he watched he felt himself become drawn into it, not unlike when he was playing that mafia game. He focused closely on the players, their positioning, how they moved and why. He was hoping he could learn something from these guys and take something back to Namimori.

As practice came to an end the guys began to leave and Yamamoto got up and was about to leave until someone called to him.

"Hey," they said, "new guy."

Yamamoto turned and saw one of the players coming over to him, "I saw you watching us, you interested in joining?"

"Well normally I would but I'm not a permanent student here," Yamamoto said, "but I really love baseball. I'm on the school's team back home." This guy was tall, a few inches taller than Yamamoto; he had light brown hair, medium length, slicked back.

"I'm Chōshoku Seikatsu, most call me Cho," he held out his hand to shake.

"Yamamoto Takeshi," Yamamoto said as he shook his hand. He didn't notice Cho glance at the Vongola Ring of Rain on Yamamoto's finger.

"Come on," Cho said, "I'll get you something to drink, tell me about your hometown."

Gokudera couldn't be happier, even though everyone kept their human forms, he could tell that each and every one of them was a monster of some sort. After class Gokudera tried talking to every person he could, though most were just annoyed by him, he tried and took as many notes as he could.

He was about to quit for today and go look for Tsuna and the others when he heard a voice, "I can give you an interview if you like."

Gokudera turned and saw a girl with long black hair, she seemed very confidante in her posture, "But not here, somewhere quiet."

Gokudera happily agreed and walked into an empty classroom with her.

"So what is it you want to know?" she asked.

"Well," Gokudera said, turning to a new page in his notebook, "your name would be a good place to start."

"Tomodachi Shihan," she said, "you can call me Tomo."

Gokudera noted this. "So what kind of monster are you?"

Tomo smiled, "Why would you want to know that? You are such a bad boy for trying to get me to break the rules. But for you I'd consider it." She reached over and brushed some of Gokudera's hair from his face. Gokudera blushed slightly, "Just part of my research," he said, "you don't have to answer if you don't want to."

"I'm a Shade," she said, "A spiritual being composed of darkness." She smiled and looked to the Storm Ring on Gokudera's finger. "So what's your connection with the Vongola family?" she asked.

Gokudera looked up from his notes, his expression changed, knowing what was about to happen.

"This place is great!" Haru said as she and Kyoko explored the building with I-pin and Lambo.

"Is so big," Kyoko said, "I wonder how many students go here?"

"It could be hundreds!" Haru exclaimed, "or maybe even thousands!"

Lambo struggled in Kyoko's arms, "Kyoko!" he said, and "Lambo-san is bored! I wanna play!"

"Lambo," I-pin scolded him, "Be patient."

"Lambo-san doesn't wanna!" Lambo said as he jumped from Kyoko's arms and landed on a railing. "Ha! Now you're gonna play Hide and Seek with Lambo-san!" Lambo said.

"Lambo!" Haru said, "Get down from there, you could fall!"

"Nah," Lambo said, "Lambo-san is awesome in high places!" Lambo pretended to be walking a tightrope as he spoke as he suddenly slipped and fell.

"LAMBO!" The three of them shouted as they rushed to try and catch him. They rushed over to the railing and looked over to see that someone below had caught him. He had sandy brown hair and wore a pair of glasses. He looked from Lambo to Haru, Kyoko and I-pin.

"I take it this belongs to you," he said to them as he started walking up the stairs.

"Let go!" Lambo said as he struggled, "Let go! Stupid Four Eyes!"

"Thanks for catching him," Kyoko said as she took him back.

"It was nothing," the boy said, "He kinda just fell onto my head."

"Could we at least get your name?" Haru asked.

"Hirari Seibāzu," he said as he started to walk away, "Don't worry about thanking me, we'll be seeing each other again soon."

"What do you think he meant by that?" Kyoko asked once he was gone.

"You know what I just realized?" Haru asked, ignoring Kyoko's question, "that guy looks just like Fuuta! But with glasses!"

Chrome stood on the school's roof after class, it was quiet here. There was one boy here earlier, but he was far enough away that she didn't pay him much attention; he seemed preoccupied and left shortly after arriving. Chrome leaned against the railing, holding her trident, her one connection to Mukuro. She felt safe when she held it.

She looked up and saw another boy standing there, it startled her. The strange thing is that he just seemed to appear. He had sort black hair and said nothing, a sticker on his jacket said "Hello, my name is Timmothy." He said nothing, just stared at her with the same blank expression. He made Chrome nervous as she gripped her trident.

The first thing Ryohei did after class was rush off and challenge all of the martial arts clubs in the school. He was very upset to find that the school didn't have a boxing club. "Alright all of you!" he said to them. "It seems you all don't know the greatness that is boxing! So I have challenged the best of your clubs to face me and I shall prove it, to the extreme!"

A guy in a karate gi stepped forward, "Haji Miyamoto," he said, "Capitan of the Karate Club. While I accept your challenge, I just don't want there to be any bad blood between us when I beat you, because I like your attitude."

"I'll show you that there's nothing that can defeat the extreme that is boxing!" Ryohei said as he raised his fists and charged. Ryohei opened with a right hook wich Haji seemed to predict and ducked under it. Haji swept low with his leg, trying to kick Ryohei's feet out from under him but Ryohei jumped back. Having to keep track of the guy's hands and his legs was the difficult part.

Haji smiled, "You're in range," he said as he brought both of his hands to his side, "for my Empty Fist Thrust!" he thrust both of his palms forward and Ryohei suddenly felt like he was punched hard in the stomach. Ryohei pushed himself through it, much to Haji's surprise, and struck him hard in the face.

Haji went down and stayed down; the small crowd was shocked by the outcome.

"Well done," one voice said, a guy with blonde hair, "I expected nothing less of the Vongola Family's Sun Guardian."

Hibari Kyoya observed the hallways after class started, this place irritated him. He already noticed several things that he wouldn't let happen in Namimori. But this wasn't Namimori, where his allegiance lied. If it was a real problem this school's disciplinary committee would handle it.

Hibari overheard a few students talking; they were talking about what they called the "Public Safety Commission" and how a student named Tsukune had defeated their leader, the group disbanded afterword. Now that was unacceptable! Without someone to keep order, the students would cause chaos.

"I can tell you're upset," A voice said, it belonged to a guy who reminded Hibari way too much of Mukuro Rokudo. He had a slender figure with long dark hair.

"Perhaps I can offer something to vent your frustrations," he said with a smile, his tone of voice implied that he was threatening Hibari.

Hibari already had his tonfas at the ready, "Don't threaten me, or I'll bite you to death."
