It was later that day that I found myself taking a break from my job. It had been almost a month. I managed to earn enough to pay the rent and for other needs for a bit a few months ago. Plus, there's Alfred's income. I was sitting on my bed, finally relaxing, away from pink smoke, perverts and anything else of the sort. Sundays. Yay!
"Maybe one day that cupcake will fear my wrath!" I chuckled with a grin on my face. "No more running through that open field!" I nearly laughed out loud evilly.
Nee futari wa guuzen deau unmei nanka ja nakatta. Anata ga saigo ni nigekonda basho ga-
I picked up my cell phone with a groan.
"Hello?" I grumbled.
"Family meeting at Tsuna's house," Reborn's voice said. "Better not be late or face the consequences."
That baby sure is scary.

"So this is where Tsunayoshi-kun lives," I said thoughtfully out loud as I looked at his house through his gate. I was wearing a black t-shirt that said "You've been bad, go to my room" and a pair of jeans. I also wore a black cabbie. I quite light this hat, might I had. A pair of large earphones were around my neck.
"Are you one of Tsuna's friends?" A male's voice asked. I turned to see a guy that looked like 'Blondie' from my future trips. Blonde hair, green jacket, though Blondie was wearing a suit… Baggy pale-green pants. I blinked and shrugged.
"Of the sort. Do you live with Tsunayoshi or something?"
"Nah, just visiting." I nodded and rang the doorbell. "Could it be that Reborn invited you over?"
"Mm?" I didn't really pay attention to what he was saying. "Yeah." This man was full of questions, wasn't he? I sweat dropped as I hear Tsuna's voice scream from inside and some loud thumping. Did he fall down the stairs…? The door flew open and nearly hit me in the face. I frowned.
"Ah! Dino-san! Asakura-san!" Tsuna said. I glared at him.
"If that was any closer to my face, I'd make you face something worst than Reborn could ever do to you," I muttered. Tsuna sweat dropped.
"A-anyways, everyone's upstairs waiting," He stuttered. We all headed upstairs and I saw some faces I recognized and a few I didn't. I kept a blank expression.
"Maf-," A boy I recognized to be Sasagawa Ryohei, Kyoko's older brother paused mid-speech as I entered the room. "MUFFIN. I SAID MUFFIN! THE EXTREME MUFFIN!"
I sweat dropped.
"Baka."
"Well, now that we're here, let's introduce ourselves," Reborn said. "It'll make this going easier."
"I'll EXTREMELY go first!" Ryohei exclaimed. I inwardly groaned. "I am Sasagawa Ryohei! I'm the captain of the boxing club! My motto is EXTREME!!"
I looked at him blankly. Oook…
"Ahaha," Yamamoto laughed. "I'm Yamamoto Takeshi, I love baseball and sports."
"I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi," Tsuna said. I could tell he didn't want to say anything that had to do with him being no-good. "You can just call me Tsuna."
"Gokudera Hayato," Gokudera grunted.
"I'm Dino," Blondie said grinning.
"I'm Asakura Dante," I said blankly. I felt myself being pulled into a headlock.
"You're Italian?" Dino asked.
"Half," I muttered. "Non riesco a respirare ... (I can't breathe…)"
"OH! Sorry!" He rubbed the back of his sheepishly after he left go of me.
"Dante's the new addition to the family," Reborn said. Since when the hell were we on first-name basis?
"So… Why the hell are we gathered here?" I leaned back on my hands.
"We're here to get rid of a problematic family in Namimori." I blinked. Um… Okay…
"A small family called the Cane family."
"Dog… Family?" I asked. Reborn nodded. "My god…"
"We're the Vongola after-all. Except Dino, he's the boss of Cavallone."
"… Clam… Horse or something," I muttered.
"Mahaha! Lambo-sama is from Bovino! DIE REBORN!" Cow-suit kid again. This time, with pink grenades. Wait… Pink?
"Cattle…" What a weird day.
--
"So we're going against this part of the family, while the rest of the group goes against the other..?" I asked as we walked towards some building. Dino nodded. I had split into a group with Dino and Ryohei. Oh gee, great.
"That's pretty much how it is," Dino said.
"WE'RE GOING TO EXTREMELY WIN!" Ryohei exclaimed, pumping a fist into the air. I sighed and fixed my hat. If anything happened to my favourite hat, there's going to be hell to pay.
--
"On the count of three…," Dino whispered. We were going to kick the door open and then take on whoever was in there. What the hell kind of plan is that!? "One… Two… Three!"
The door flew open and then we saw quite a few people in there.
"Uh huh…," I kept my mouth shut as we stared at about twenty-seven people.
"What do you brats think you're doing!?" A man with a scar across his left eye growled. I didn't have time to do anything as the two beside me already started fighting. I groaned. I sucked at fighting!
"Hah, there's a little kid here!" I grimaced as some guys walked over to me with some wooden sticks. Look like those'll hurt. "Little children should head home." He placed a hand on my head and had a vice grip. My eye twitched. The bastard touched my hat..
"THE FUCK! DON'T TOUCH THE HAT YOU BASTARD!" I growled and kicked him where it hits.
"The hell!" A man exclaimed. The charged at me and I punched him in the stomach. When someone touches my favourite hat without permission, I'll be scarier than a pregnant woman!
"Wow, Dante, you're strong," Dino said.
"You should join the boxing club after this!" Ryohei exclaimed after punching another man. I paid no attention to them as I elbowed another one in the gut. My arms are gonna hurt after this, but it's for the hat!
That's a cute hat Dante! Very fitting!
You look exactly like her!
I gritted my teeth as I was punched in the stomach and face.
"Dante!" Someone shouted. I felt myself being pulled up by my collar and then my hat was tugged off my head.
" This hat seems important to you," The man grinned. My eyes widened as he dropped it to the ground and stomped on it.
"You son of a BITCH!" I kicked him in the face and grabbed a chair, smashing him with it. I received a punch to the face, but then the others were taken down by Dino and Ryohei. I gritted my teeth as I could feel a bump forming on my face. I walked over and picked up my hat. I dusted it off and concluded that it was still fine.
"Dante! Are you okay?" Dino asked. Ryohei glanced over at us.
"I'm fine," I grunted and put my cap on.
--
"We're back!" Ryohei exclaimed as we entered the Sawada household.
"Oh my! What happened to you all!?" Tsuna's mom exclaimed. "The boys came back beat up as well! They're treating their wounds upstairs."
We nodded and headed upstairs.
"Yo! We've finished off that part," Dino said, opening the door. I was greeted with the sight of many of the boys with their shirts off. I raised an eyebrow. I sat down with a sigh, these injuries probably wouldn't heal overnight.
"You shouldn't have fought so much," Reborn muttered, slapping my bump and I shrieked.
"Reborn! Asakura-san's injured!" Tsuna exclaimed. He came over and disinfected my wounds.
"Ouch!" I exclaimed. It stings like hell!
"Oh come on Dante! Take it like a man!" Dino laughed.
"An EXTREME man!" Ryohei added.
"But I'm not a man!" I exclaimed. Dino and Ryohei paused to look at me.
"Huh…?" Dino asked. "You're not…?"
"How the hell were you under the –OUCH- impression I was a man!?" I screamed.
"…" Dino kept his mouth shut and Ryohei just stared.
"Oww! Tsunayoshi-kun! Stop pressing so hard!" I exclaimed.
"S-sorry Asakura-san!"
"Geez, Tsu-kun doesn't know how to treat a girl!" Tsuna's mom said coming into the room.
"Eh? Sawada-san knew that Dante was a girl?" Dino asked.
"Of course! Why wouldn't I?" She took Tsuna's place and was fixing up my wounds. She was doing a much better job than Tsuna! She shook her head as the boys were arguing about my looks and saying I looked more like a boy.
"JUST BECAUSE MY PARENTS GAVE ME A BOY NAME AND MAKE ME LOOK LIKE A BOY, DOESN'T MAKE ME A BOY!" I exclaimed. Everyone laughed at me and I pouted.
Honestly... You're all probably thinking 'wtf was dat?' XD
