Chapter 12: A normal, normal day

Reader's POV

It was Tuesday, the day after the first M.T lesson. Currently, it was homeroom period and Tsuna only knew one person in his class even though it's already the second day. To put it short, he was surrounded by aliens dressed weirdly in all sorts of clothing since the school allowed the students to wear their own instead of the standard uniform. Neat huh?

Tsuna wore his casual jacket with 27 printed on it and the pair of jeans he time travelled with since his uniform was still slightly damp. He had only two clothing. Either the jacket or the uniform. He didn't want to waste too much of Giotto's already tight budgeted money, so he didn't get to go around the streets to shop yet.

Anyway back to the story.

The person who was the only classmate Tsuna talked to so far was someone he thought he knew, but couldn't quite pinpoint where exactly did he meet that person before. In Namimori Middle School? Namimori High School? The Vongola Family? Those were the only plausible places.

She had pale seaweed green hair that reached her waist and a heart-shaped face with delicate yet distinct features. She also had azure eyes that were soft but held absolutely no sign of any emotion any humans should have. She was only a tad shorter than Tsuna who had grown quite a lot and was catching up to Yamamoto's height. She had slender hands and long legs with very pale skin and always had this poker face on like Giotto. However, while Giotto's ones were blazing with pure hot hormones, hers were ones that should have belonged to a corpse.

She was flat-chested and Tsuna who was always giddy in the head whenever he was around girls actually felt comfortable around her. She had the same air as Giotto and she sat next to Tsuna who sat in the corner of the class beside the window, so Tsuna had tried to talk to her, but she proved to be a high order. She had only reply with a short ''Yes'' or ''No'' or she wouldn't reply at all to Tsuna. She would be in her own dream world in lessons and was so quiet no one would have thought she existed. It's like she had melted into the atmosphere and became one with it.

''Hi Francis…'' Tsuna smiled awkwardly as he sat down on his seat, ignoring the chaos in the class involving some random person having his own karaoke session because of a dare. A gang of people in the middle of the class involving about one third of the class which was really only five people only were playing Truth or Dare. Tsuna was curious as to why is it that only his class had like ten odds people when other classes had numbers centred on the number thirty.

And the singing was making the windows breaking and Tsuna's ear bleed.

''… Hi.'' Francis forced out from the back of her throat after an awkward silence of staring at each other without moving.

Cold sweat beaded itself onto Tsuna's head and he took out the books for today from his bag and slot them underneath his table. Economics, Mathematics, Music, Sports, Japanese and History. It was going to be a long day it seemed. All of Tsuna's hated subjects seemed to be rebelling against him, and decided the best torture he deserved was to be on the same day.

Tsuna sighed and drifted off into his dream world, the tiredness from yesterday overtaking him by force.

Mathematics Lesson

Tsuna almost died when the teacher which was suspiciously similar to Reborn aimed his chalk at gis forehead because he nearly fell asleep and all the formulas swimming around in his foggy head was getting him nowhere near getting the hang of Algebra and he was drained out from yesterday and still felt very very tired. Man was that one long sentence.

But no matter how hard Tsuna tried, he always had this gap in his memory after his break. He attended M.T lessons and Giotto told him he fell asleep in class so he didn't remember anything so Knuckle, Lampo and Asari was going to teach him what he missed out on when he get home today, the lesson on the theory of gun structure. And then the next moment was that he woke up at the warehouse surrounded by scary hills of crates and was to escape from the foul odour place without being given a proper explanation.

After they had escaped from that warehouse which was an abandoned factory that used to be a company that sold poultry stuff, which explained the foul stench that clung to his shirt like annoying leeches, Giotto fainted right at the edge of the forest surrounding the warehouse and fell off Tsuna's back who piggybacked him with great sweat. At a loss, he went into HDW and carried him gingerly through the forest since he couldn't risk being seen in the sky like an UFO especially when they have alerted their kidnappers they were gone. It would be like telling the culprits their base. He didn't had the chance to even open his mouth when Giotto woke up later on in the evening, looked at the dark sky outside, a shocked expression on his face and ran out saying ''I have to go to the Giglio Nero Base!'' And he didn't return until the next day when school started. G did pestered him about where they were since they both suddenly 'poof' into thin air. Tsuna wasn't sure what to say so he said they went out to buy Giotto's cakes. He didn't want G to worry so much when he had sunken cheek, pale yellowish complexion and heavy eye bags that screamed that he had enough on his shoulders and anymore would totally make him see heaven. G seemed to buy that story, and probably believed it entirely.

But something felt weird. It just didn't felt quite right to dismiss it as a mere kidnapping. There was more to it. And he had this nudging feeling somewhere in the back of his brain, screaming to him in neon bright letters that he definitely was forgetting something important. There was something i-

''Sawada!'' And that definitely did wonders to shake Tsuna from his deep train of thoughts. Tsuna had this feeling this wasn't the first time his name was called.

''W-What?'' Tsuna gasped when the whole class was looking at him and looked to his right where Franzis called him with his voice that seemed to belong to a girl who had desperately attempted to sound like a guy but failing splendidly. He was sinking more and more into his chair as though the eyes on him had wondrous power over gravity.

''It's sports and you need to change… Everyone was waiting for you since you fell asleep. The Spartan teacher would kill us if we didn't go as a class.'' Francis said in her usual dead monotone.

''S-Sorry everyone!'' Tsuna stuttered and blush deep red in embarrassment as he quickly sat up and grabbed his sports uniform. It was also a white undershirt and a jumper over it to block out the cold and shorts which really did little other than exposing Tsuna's leg to the brittle cold.

''Don't make a prince wait you peasant.'' A person muttered smoothly with crossed arms and head tilted upwards in arrogance, nose almost touching the ceiling.

''Belphegor?'' Tsuna stuttered at the blond haired who had eyes the same shade as his burning red face. His eyes, wha-?

''Huh? Belphegor? Who's that? I'm Astaroth, don't mistake me for another peasant. I'm a prince after all!'' The blond prince continued with his head high, peering down at Tsuna and somehow looked taller.

Realization finally hit Tsuna slowly.

''AHHHH!'' Tsuna pointed a quivering little finger from Astaroth to Francis, and back again. Now he knew why Francis looked so familiar.

''Stop pointing at me with your finger.'' Astaroth demanded and took out metallic knives from somewhere in his pocket and spread one evenly between two fingers. Guns can be bought in, why not knives as well? What a safe school it was. Geez.

''Since you brought your knives, it's convenient enough.'' Francis said and swiped a knife out of Astaroth's hand and scrutinized it like a professional would do. Francis's face dropped… Well not literally but you get the meaning.

''Senpai, have you been sharpening your knives? They are pretty blunt and they are dull.'' And that snide remark earned him a volley of knives stuck at his back. But it looked like it didn't really matter, his face didn't change at all.

''So you are a guy?'' Tsuna asked, somehow afraid of the answer and looked around frantically. If they are here, the VARIA genius and the illusionist… Then…

''Isn't it obvious I am?'' Francis asked rhetorically.

''RRRRRROOOOOOOOOIIIIII! YOU SCUM! HURRY UP ALREADY. WE ARE LATE FOR 5 MINUTES!'' A guy with long, even longer hair than what most girls had and to top it off, it was red in colour which matched his grey eyes perfectly.

Ah, he's the reason why Tsuna's ear were bleeding from before.

'' Pescecane! So you were here~!'' A sing song annoying gay voice hugged himself onto the back of the red-haired guy. He had his green fringe separated from the rest of his hair which were mostly red in colour and wore an over the top furry coat.

''OIII LUCIFER STOP HUGGING ME!'' Pescecane shouted at him and pushed him to the wall.

''Shut up, thrash.'' A man sitting coolly in his seat in the middle of all the commotion woke up from his sleep and glared at everyone and it lingered on Tsuna who had his back to the wall and on the verge of fainting.

''Diabalos! Don't be that way~'' Lucifer pulled himself out of the dent in the wall without even as much as a scratch on him.

''Shut up.''

''Ah…. He fainted.'' Francis muttered.

''I don't care.'' Diabalos snapped.

o0o

''Oh you are finally awake.'' Francis said as Tsuna's slowly opened his eyes. He leant his arm against the scratchy stone floor and pushed himself up, supporting his upper torso up with his arm. He was leaning on a patch of soft grass, that was the first thing he noticed when his vision became clearer and Francis was beside him, sitting on the grass as well, and well… looking after him.

Tsuna scratched the back of his neck where he felt an itch coming and suspected he was bitten by ants.

''Where am I?'' Tsuna looked around and realized he was in the school field and in the middle of the enormous grassy land was his class sitting down in front of a handsome dark-haired guy with violet eyes who doesn't looked more than fifteen and wore a black shirt with golden trimmings and black pants which looked strangely like a uniform from his times, not from the past.

''The teacher said that even though you fainted, you still have to participate in today's class since today's lesson is important.'' Francis mumbled and stood up. ''Since you are awake, let's join the class.''

''Why is today's lesson important?'' Tsuna asked as he walked alongside him after pulling on the nearby fence to get up on his feet.

''This school specialised in Sports you see, and we would be all grouped into different segments depending on how good you are in a particular area and from there, they will hire professionals to polish up your talent.''

''Sounds… good.'' Tsuna sweat dropped and felt his heart sunk heavily. He was never good at sports and never will be.

''If you don't belonged to any, you will be kicked out.'' Francis said knowingly.

''Wh-How do you know that?!'' Tsuna backed away instinctively with a blushing face.

''Instinct.'' Francis replied simply and they joined the sitting crowd.

''Line up in one row. I will be examining you lot now.'' The teacher said in his voice which complimented his looks plentifully well.

Tsuna ended up being dead last since everyone fought for the first position which belonged to Diabalos aka Xanxus's predecessor.

''Strength.'' The teacher said immediately when he laid eyes on Diabalos.

''Diabalos huh. The Strength coach would be glad to have a student like you.'' The teacher smiled a little.

''Next. Oga Tatsumi.''

''Strength.''

''Natural Harmo-''

''N would be fine!'' A green-haired guy frantically stopped the teacher from continuing.

''Catching.'' Catching?

''Next. Ganta Igarashi.''

''Killing.'' KILLING?

''Daisuke Niwa.''

''Agility.'' Oh thank god a normal one.

''Ciel Phantomhive.''

''Shortness.'' A vein was popping in said person's temple. Is that even a sport?

''Hibiki Kuze.''

''Demon.'' WHAT?!

''Ouma Shu.''

''Eccentric sister.'' WHAT HAS THAT GOT TO DO WITH HIM?!

''Light Yagami''

''Death.'' …

''Usui Takumi.''

''Pervertness.'' HE HAD SUCH A HANDSOME FACE.

''Akihisa Yoshi.''

''…. Baka-ness.'' What's with that awkward silence?

''Asataroth.''

''Craze for blood.'' Is that even valid?

''Pescecane''

''Voice.'' YOU MEAN HIS VOICE CAN BE A TYPE OF SPORTS, I'M IMPRESSED.

''Lucifer.''

''Gayness.'' Which earned the teacher a whoop of glee from the gay lord. Tsuna tried hard to suppress a shudder.

''Levi.''

''Agility.'' Woah a normal one finally. ''But I think you will fit Strength better since your dear boss is there.'' …. What?

''THANK YOU!''

''Francis.''

''Intelligence.'' Oho!

''Tsunayoshi.''

'It's my turn!' Tsuna thought nervously and tightened his grip on his shirt and looked up at the tall and lanky figure.

''Hmm…. You are pretty hard, like Giotto.'' The teacher mused and gave Tsuna another scrutinising look from head to body to toes and back up again.

''Huh, Giotto?''

''You can be baka-ness and uselessness. Choose one.'' The teacher decided finally after thinking for a bit.

''…'' The teacher had just ignored him, and he gave him those two choices… Both sounded the same to Tsuna.

''Oh I know, you should join the Special Ability group? That's what Giotto chose too.'' And suddenly all the eyes were on him, pressing on Tsuna's will to run away right now and then.

''He had to choose between Agility, Speed, Cheekiness, Weirdness and cake-ness. For people with multiple choices, they can also choose to join the Special Ability group which consisted of people who are multi-talented in different areas. Though he was close to choosing the cake-ness group.''

''I will take it the baka-'' Tsuna muttered while crying comically.

''Yeah, you shall join the Special Ability group!'' The teacher decided in an excited voice.

''Wh-!'' Tsuna protested. No way would he join that dangerous sounding group.

''It's decided!'' The teacher finshed with a note of finality and scribbled it into the column beside Tsuna's name.

''Class is dismissed.'' And he ran off, without Tsuna even knowing what his name was.

o0o

''Nile River Blah blah blah Great Pyramid blah blah the Great Sphinx blah.'' The teacher with a sleepy voice droned on and on without stopping and looking up. Most of the students have had enough and left the classroom quietly but he still didn't notice with his eyes glued to the textbook he held. The people that were left was only a sleeping Tsuna and N. N was just randomly messing around with a few balls resembling huge sized capsules in red and white with a bored face.

Tsuna woke up to look at the time. 5 minutes left; there wouldn't be a point to sleeping any further. Not the slightest interested in the history of Egypt, Tsuna gazed out of the window.

''Hi, I'm N.'' The green-haired settled down into Francis's seat with his head turned to Tsuna.

''H-Hi, I'm Tsunayoshi Sawada. You can call me Tsuna for short.'' Tsuna introduced nervously.

''Ahh… Giotto's brother.'' N said with a note of acknowledgement.

''Is he really that famous?'' Tsuna asked curiously.

''Definitely! He's an awesome Trai- No nevermind.'' N was about to launch into a passionate speech from the likes of it and held himself back, for which Tsuna was grateful for. He had enough of having Egypt history buzzing through his head now.

''Oh if you didn't know, I'm Francis's brother.'' N said and leaned backwards into his seat and stretched his long legs in front of him underneath the desk.

''Oh O- WAIT WHAT.'' Of all people, Fran h- I mean Francis had a brother?

''Is it really that surprising? I do think we looked pretty similar. We both had seaweed-green hair from our Father and green eyes from Mother.'' N raised a curious eyebrow and sat up straighter in his seat.

''I-I'm sorry!'' I clasped my hands, laid them on the space between my slightly spread legs and looked down.

''It's fine,'' N smiled a little and his fingers fiddled around with the rubric cube attached to his belt with a chain.

''That rubric cube is really special.'' Tsuna said, noticing his action.

''Yeah, it's a gift.'' At that, N's cold green eyes became a tiny bit teary, making them radiate with a little glow.

As if on cue, the school bell rang and the teacher left with his neck stuck permanently in that position while mumbling a little goodbye under his tone.

''Goodbye, it was nice to meet you.'' N waved to Tsuna and left without waiting. Tsuna was left sitting by himself in the empty classroom.

''Tsuna! I came to get you.'' G appeared at the entrance of the classroom, his tall and thin figure leaning casually against the doorway.

''Woah why is your class so empty?'' G entered the classroom and took his seat in front of Tsuna's where this guy named Yoshi sat. Tsuna remembered him as the guy who was assigned to the 'baka-ness' section of Sports. He turned the chair around and rested his head on his hands lying on the table.

''Everyone boycotted the History lesson.'' Tsuna said jokingly and packed his stuff.

''Haha, did it happened to be the gloomy old guy?''

''Yeah!''

''Then I know who you are talking about. I don't remember his name since I always left his class as soon as he entered it.''

Tsuna chuckled a little and swing his bag over his shoulder.

''Let's go find Giotto.'' Tsuna suggested.

''He's probably being chased again.'' G sighed and lead Tsuna down the maze of corridors.

''Where are we going?''

''The Student Council room.''

''Why?''

''Since only Giotto had the key to that room, he always hide in that room until everything was over.''

''So he's the president?''

''Yes, but only the High School Section. All three sections have different Student Council Presidents in charge of them.''

''Giotto is, as always, amazing.'' Tsuna found himself smiling brightly.

''Though he always pushes his work on me.''

''Eh?! G-san you are part of the Council as well?'' Tsuna exclaimed, taken aback. G's dressing in a white top with the edges not tucked in and the top few buttons left unbuttoned with a tie tied and hung clumsily from his neck did not help the image of him being in the Council.

''I was dead reluctant, but Giotto forcefully recruited my name in using his authority and now I'm the secretary.''

''Haha.''

''I end up doing all his work though.''

''Must be quite an ordeal isn't it?'' Tsuna's eyes glazed over when memories of piles and piles of paperwork refreshed in his memory again with their little demonic hands grabbing at Tsuna, eyes glinting sharply. Ahh… The power of imagination.

''At least Alaude is there to help as well.'' G's lip curved into a 'I-can't-help-it' smile and knocked on a door with a tag titled 'Student Council Room'

''He's the Vice president.'' G said before knocking three times on the door. ''Primo, it's me. It is all clear.''

A click of the lock and the door creaked open slowly and out popped Giotto's flustered face with his hair askew and tangled.

''Is it Elizabeth again?'' G snorted and smirked as he slammed the door open and walked in. Tsuna did not know what and he entered the room also.

''Lock the door.'' G ordered after Tsuna who fumbled clumsily at the sudden order he was given.

''Yeah, it's Elizabeth. Didn't she have a fiancée named Ciel? But she kept on squealing whenever she sees me. And when she do, she drags the poor guy along with her to have a wild goose chase around the compound.'' Giotto settled down into a large wooden chair cushioned with red velvet cushions behind a table stuffed full of yellowish papers. They were a nightmare.

''Ciel? Ciel Phantomhive? He's in my class.'' Tsuna thought back to the guy who was pissed off the entire time after Sports because he was in the 'Shortness' group. He wasn't sure if he wanted to befriend the guy. He looked like a child, but he behaved like an adult. He vaguely remembered a tall, very tall person dressed in a butler outfit coming to the class to get Ciel who was leaning on the table, sleeping comfortably. He swoop him up into his broad chest and strong arms, making Ciel looked even more childish-like and small and left without a word. His movements were so swift and fluid, Ciel probably didn't know he was being carried. Nobody said anything, so Tsuna assumed the tall handsome guy with a flirty smirk was Ciel's butler.

G settled down into a couch and stretched his legs onto the couch and hung his hand over the top of the couch. Tsuna himself sat on one of the many chairs surrounding a long wooden table, which is most probably the meeting place for the councillors.

''Hmm… It's best not to go near him, he destroyed an Italian mafia before when he was kidnapped by them.'' Giotto said.

G sat up straighter, swing his legs upwards and onto the floor and signalled with his finger to let Tsuna sit down on the other end of the couch. Tsuna obliged.

''Such a small kid can actually do that?''

''He's 2 years younger than you only.''

''Huh? I thought he was like 10 or something.'' Tsuna scratched his head. There sure were a lot of weird people around. But in this school, somehow… Everyone is a bishoujo or bishounen. Admittedly, it's like this school have magical power and it was probably one of the reason why the school is so popular. Hell, even the teachers are handsome.

''He would kill you if you said that.''

And Tsuna immediately shut up.

''Do you guys want to go now?'' Giotto asked amusedly, looking out of the window and downwards.

''Don't tell me…'' G was horrified.

''Come on! It's only the second floor!'' Giotto pushed up the window pane and placed a hand on the window ledge.

''WAIT!'' And off Giotto jumped, using his hand as the lever, out of the window, his hair flying upwards and his eyebrows furrowed downwards before landing flawlessly onto an empty ground behind the High School building where people less frequent unless they needed to use classrooms like the Science laboratory.

''Come on!'' Giotto cheered from downstairs, his shout echoing upwards. G looked down; his hands perched onto the ledge, pondered for a second before doing the same thing.

''Wh-!?''

G landed with much more of a thud than Giotto did and his face scrunched up into one of pain before smoothly melting back into the usual poker smirking face.

Tsuna peered downwards, and backwards into the room and down again at the two pairs of hands reaching out to him, urging him to jump.

He bit his lips until he could almost taste blood and his knuckles were sickly white from clutching the ledge far too tightly, his hands were damp and losing their grip on the ledge.

''We will catch you.'' G reassured. ''So jump before those girls realise we are here.''

''Tsuna, jump!''

His heart felt heavy and his legs were protesting against him from moving them.

''Jump!'' Giotto shouted excitedly again.

His eyes shut tightly together. It's now or never. He could feel the pursuers inching nearer with every minute.

''GYAAAA!'' Tsuna scream echoed into the air and left behind as he jumped down. It felt more like he was jumping down from the top of the building than one floor. The cold wind hit him hard in the face as his body lunged downwards and rushed past his cheeks in gentle waves, carrying his brown spiky hair along in its grips.

He felt fear in his head, he was going to die.

But he also felt this weird sense of exhilaration no one in their right mind should have in this situation.

He was going to be safe. He trusts Giotto and G.

And then he landed hard, leg first into a ring of hands and his hands instinctively wrapped around a warm body's back to cushion some of the impact. The strong hands supported him and he was in mid-air, then he felt that the hands shifted and his body weight was tilted to the side to let him down. Tsuna opened his eyes, wanting to know who he had been grabbing on.

It was Giotto. His fringe covered much of his face, but underneath the layer of shadow, Tsuna could see a faint trace of red but didn't think too much of it.

''You okay?'' G asked, and patted himself free of dusts.

''Yeah...'' Tsuna replied and hopped to his feet.

Giotto just stood there motionless.

''Giotto?'' Tsuna asked, puzzled. ''Giotto!'' Tsuna repeated with a bit more impact.

''PRIMO!''

''Huh?'' Giotto's soul was brought back to himself, the pink on his face dissipating into air.

''OH GIOTTO-SAMA IS THERE!'' Came annoying screeches and squeals as a stampede came charging at them.

''What are you doing? LET'S RUN!'' G grabbed onto both Giotto and Tsuna hand and took off like a lightning.

''I planned a route just in case you decided to jump from the window.'' G explained as he zipped through an arch of trees and beside the Science Laboratories building and then they were in the Middle School section area. The girls were no longer in sight, but they could hear them frantically shouting and asking the whereabouts about their dear idol.

''We will leave via the Middle School section gate and meet up with the others at the forest entrance.'' G continued and he let go of both hands.

''It's really awesome how you can predict my moves.'' Giotto smiled and adopted a leisure pace behind G as they took cover in the trees behind the buildings, shadowing them from both the sun and eyes.

''I wasn't your buddy for ten odd years for nothing.'' G replied with a little smile tugging at his lips and head turned back. Tsuna just trailed alongside them, seeing how close their bond was and how solid it was despite their disputes. He laughed at their childish conversation, but it felt hollow and void of the cheerfulness it should be showing. He should be showing.

He couldn't help but feel upset.

o0o

I took longer to write this chapter because I tried not to make Giotto and Tsuna OOC, but I guess they did. At first it was only 1500+ words, but somehow it managed to become 4500+ without the author's notes and etc.

Please review, I would really appreciate it! :) I may update earlier :P

Ilover145, haha thanks a lot! It's awesome to know it's something that can keep you entertained.

Pure Red Crane, what's inevitable is inevitable. But I'm sure Tsuna can overcome it, right? He's strong.

Tsuna, hehe glad to hear that!
