Disclaimer: KHR is not mine. All rights go to Amano Akira. Only thing that is mine are the plot and OCs.

Disclaimer #2: One of Hiro's guardians is not mine, who specifically, you will find out ;). Creds go to Aquarius- 74

Disclaimer #3: And another one has been inspired by Leo, from Rick Riordan's Heroes of Olympus (underlined? Italicized?) series! I think you'll find out immediately who ;)

A/N: I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY: I AM SO SORRY FOR UPDATING THIS LATE. I HAVE BEEN AND STILL AM BEING DROWNED IN HOMEWORK AND EXTRA STUDIES FOR EXAMS AND ALL THAT CRAP. SO ONCE AGAIN, I APOLOGIZE AND FEEL VERY ASHAMED OF MYSELF AND CANNOT GUARANTEE A FASTER UPDATE. PLEASE BEAR WITH ME. (CAUSE I DON'T THINK I CAN)

"Talking"

Flashback/ Thoughts

"Italian"

Warning: OOC-ness and underdeveloped writing, especially in my OCs…

Recap:

"I thought you told him about the mafia! Please, be more specific next time!" Tsuna breathed deeply.

"Oh. Haha, sorry!"

"THAT WAS UNNECESSARY YOU FOOL!"

"HIEEE! Gokudera-kun! Please! Calm down!"

Hiro

"So, you're the group dad chose for me?" Hiro stared at the six in front of him, Reborn on his shoulder.

The six bowed slightly.

"Yes, Decimo-sama."


"Hai, Decimo-sama." As Hiro looked at their bowed positions, his lips curled back into a sneer.

"So this is what I get? Are you guys even capable of fighting?" all six bodies twitched, but only one was brave enough to comment.

"I think you should worry about yourself, Decimo-sama, after all, we've been trained since our childhood, while you've only recently begun, is that not correct?" One of them straightened, the others taking it as their cue to stand up as well. Hiro stared at him, brown eyes meeting green, neither yielding until Hiro finally breaks contact.

"Well, who went and made you leader?" he mutters petulantly as he turns his back towards them and stalks off.

"Waa~ he seems real nasty, doesn't he?" a pale, white-haired boy with purple eyes commented.

"Yeah, more like petulant. Hey, Angelo, maybe you went a little too far. Like, we just met, man." A cinnamon-skinned teen with dark brown curls and golden eyes remarked. Angelo smirked.

"Well, I found his prejudice a little infuriating. And besides, a boss must be stronger than his subordinates, or there might be an… uprising. Am I not correct?" The golden-eyed boy just sighed. He turned to the other three.
"What do you guys think? Louis? Gabriel? Lucifer?" Louis, the blond with shoulder-length hair just shrugged.

"He seems a little off-putting, but nowhere near intimidating." He scoffs at this. A pale, red-haired boy chimes in.

"Yeah! Like did you see the staring match between Angelo and Decimo! He totally lost!"

"That just means we have a wimp for a boss and not worth much thought." The third addressed, Lucifer, commented.

"Man, and he's supposed to lead us?" Leonardo scratched the back of his head, face scrunched up in worry.

"It's not that bad!" the purple-eyed boy cuts in, "The most he's gonna do is just boss us around, and if all fails with him, we have Angelo! Hm," he put his hand to his chin, contemplating, "and I guess we also have the other Vongola candidate…" Angelo smirks.

"Oh, I don't think he's going to be much of a problem, Rafael."


"Ugh, another day of school, another day closer to my doom…"

"Now now Tsuna-chan, no need to be so pessimistic." Giotto tutted. Tsuna grunted in reply. "And what's so bad about fighting for this, huh?! Are you… rejecting me?!" Giotto shrieked in realization, startling Tsuna into full consciousness.

"Wha-? No Giotto you idiot grandpa!" he smacked Giotto, relishing in the cry of pain elicited.

"Hmph. Then what are you so reluctant about?" Tsuna didn't answer, and after some time, Giotto groaned.

"Oh Dio Mio. Please don't tell me it's because of your friends?" Giotto groaned louder as Tsuna confirmed it.

"Well, why shouldn't I worry about it?!" Tsuna waved his arms up, "I mean, I know I seemed okay about it the other day, and I was, but then I just kept thinking about it, and then I was like Oh God, what am I doing?! Am I insane?! How could I be okay with their decision to join me? And in the mafia of all things! So yes, I am having a mild panic attack, thank you for helping." Tsuna grumbles. Giotto sighed.

"Okay, look. Technically, you only confirmed things with three of your guardians, and two of them are already in the mafia. And- no shush, I'm talking." Giotto cut Tsuna off, who closed his mouth and grumbled some more, crossing his arms.

"And Yamamoto has already, several times, agreed to follow you and help you in whatever you're doing. He's a natural at this, and no matter what you say, you can't wish that he wasn't. Because, friends or not, he's always been a natural. Hibari, I don't think I need to explain myself for this one." Tsuna nodded in agreement. "And besides, I don't think Ryohei would have many objections to actually joining the famiglia, especially if he's anything like Knuckles."

"I guess you have a point." Tsuna sighed, "But wait, what do I do about Mukuro?"

"Oh, you're on your own." Giotto backed out.

"What?! Aren't you supposed to help me on this?!"

"Hey! I did already! I made you accept the fact that your friends are entering the mafia as your guardians!"

"Not all of them!"

"This one's not my problem! He's creepy." Tsuna sweatdropped. He groans and relents.

"Fine, when should I go?"

"Today."

"What?!"


At Kokuyo Land

"Kufufu, Tsunayoshi-kun (find what he called him in previous chapter). I was expecting your visit."

Tsuna sweatdropped, "Ahahaha… were you really? Well, ah, I have a favor to ask, and it's quite permanent…" Mukuro chuckled.

"No need, I've already decided to say yes, no matter what," Tsuna perked up.

"Really? Even if it means you'll be joining my famiglia?" Tsuna's face started to drop as he saw Mukuro's face darken.

"The mafia? Well, that I wasn't expecting…" he glanced at Tsuna's face and snorted, "I'm joking you fool, of course I'll join," he sneered, smacking Tsuna's head with his trident.

"Hmph," Tsuna pouted and crossed his arms, "It's not my fault you don't joke unless someone's life is on the line, and besides, you've hated the mafia your entire life, so it's not my fault I hesitated," Tsuna scoffed.

"Kufufufu, you underestimate the both of us, Tsunayoshi," Mukuro crossed his legs, "But you have an ability to… change people. And for the better," he added. Tsuna flushed, then beamed at Mukuro.

"Okay then! Oh, before I forget, you might already know, but the Ring Battle's coming up soon, so I'll need you to fight for me! Ta ta!~" and Tsuna quickly ran out of Kokuyo land. Mukuro's fingers twitched.

"What?"


"Phew, that was a close call," Tsuna wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"No kidding. So who's next?" Giotto asked as he materialized next to Tsuna. Tsuna's eyebrows furrowed as he mentally counted down.

"Well, Kyoya, Yamamoto, Gokudera, and now Mukuro are accounted for," he ticked the fingers off his hand, "I still have to ask Ryohei-san and there's the unknown guardian Gokudera's mentioned last time we talked about this…" Giotto shrugged.

"Well, from the looks of it, the only person you're missing is your version of Lampo," he snickered, "and looking at your guardians, he's going be even more spoiled than Lampo," Giotto's snickering continued despite Tsuna's glare.

"Whatever. I just hope he's not a child. I've got a bad feeling about this…"

"Hyper Intuition?"

"And my common gut instinct."


"BWAHAHAHAHA! I'VE ARRIVED BAKA-DERA!"

"STOP SHOUTING YOU STUPID COW! WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?!"

"M-must t-t-take it!"

A/N: And there's that! Also, as a warning and apology, I've been out of this story for so long, I can't remember if Lambo already appeared in my previous chapters, but please tell me and forgive me if I did! I hope the somewhat longer chapter can make up for the wait you guys had to go through! Thank you for supporting me and my story! You guys are the best!

Ciao!
