Penny: I'm so sorry for the late update. I didn't mean for it to be this long since I updated, but life got in the way. I still plan to have this fic finished by the end of the year. Also, I'm sorry for the short chapter, but as the fic progresses the longer each chapter will be.

For readers of Fire Judge, I'm half way through the next chapter, so you aren't going to have to wait long for the new chapter to come; maybe a couple of days to a few weeks (it depend on how long it takes for WOLF to look over the chapter).

For readers of Taunt, I'm going over the fic at the moment and fixing mistakes. I plan to have a chapter updated sometime this month. Don't know when though.

Now please enjoy this chapter, and if you have an idea for a rule that I should use review or PM me. And please give constructive critisum and not a flame ruining day review.

Rule I: Don't Steal Anyone's Cake/Dessert

Offender: Mukuro

Time After Rules Instigated: Exactly one hour

One hour...

One SINGLE hour...

One TINY ITTY BITTY hour...

ONLY O-N-E HOUR!

It only took ONE hour for one of his guardians to break a rule he made after he told them.

Tsuna thought that at the very least that his guardians would last a week before one of them broke a rule. But, his guardians continued to prove him wrong when he set an expectation. And it just had to be Mukuro to be the first to do so.

After the meeting it was time for lunch, which was always, always, eaten as a family unless their was a legitimate reason because they are a family and family eat together was what Tsuna was taught. Even when his father was at home and drunk when Tsuna was a kid the three ate together. While he and his mom would always have dinner and breakfast, on the rare occasions he got up on time. Which had became more frequent after Reborn came. But, bottom line, everyone ate meals together.

Now most would expect these meals to be a side-splitting funny with the hair pulling, cursing, flame throwing weapons, insult ridden, event. And while it did have all of that, there are two things that never got hit or insulted. One is there boss (unless he willingly joins on the rare occasion) because he hates violence and all his guardians respected that to some degree.

The second is the food. As they are part of the mafia they see the dark side of the world. One of the things that they saw in the mafia most often was starvation. Whether it be from a recent torture victim, a hostage, someone who couldn't afford food, or was in debt to someone in the mafia, it didn't matter, they all saw it in one way or another. They also knew what it felt like to not have a good meal, as when they were on a mission they didn't always have one. So they made sure not to waste any food that they were given.

There may not be any wasted food but who eats the food is a different matter. While you could expect to have some of your food not stolen (usually in small amounts). But there is one food specifically that was stolen as a whole from someone's plate, cake.

Now Tsuna had never blown up at them for stealing food from each other -his own included- and didn't get mad at any of them (it mostly was Lambo whose cake was stolen most of the time so he would take Tsuna's, Reborn because he could, or in Mukuro's case, wanted more) when they ate his delicious cake that he lived for each and every day just to get it at dinner. But, it was after the fourth day in a row that he didn't get any cake because of his thieving Guardians and Reborn that he made sure that, the first rule he made would allow him to get some of his cake. And for no one to steal from each other so they didn't steal from him. Which isn't necessary, as he would share if they asked, but taking his whole slice of cake just isn't right.

Now that they know that he didn't like his cake to be stolen, he was now allowed to get mad at them for taking it.

So, after the usual affair of eating and insults, the cake he specifically ordered the chief to make for the day finally came out. And as always,a slice of cake for mostly everyone (Kyoya and Takeshi having something less surgery, and usually getting a Canola or Sea Salt Biscotti).

For all of five seconds, Tsuna thought that he could eat his cake as it was set in front of him by the head butler of Vongola. Then came the moment that Mukuro would later have a mental scar from.

Tsuna took his fork, ignoring his Hyper Intuition that told him to watch out in favor of sticking his fork into his moist Triple-Chocolate Layered Mousse cake with fudge frosting between each delectable layer. Topped with hot fudge, crunch Oreo cookies and brownie bits. With a single scoop of Rocky Road Ice Cream on the side, drenched in caramel. And the whole plate perfectly drizzled in heavenly raspberry sauce, in an amount that doesn't overpower everything it touched.

And just as he scooped a little piece of his heavenly, delicious, all his cake… an offending fork descending on his masterpiece of a cake. The fork then lifted a HUGE, GIGANTIC PIECE, of HIS cake, with some of HIS Ice Cream, just to be plopped into the mouth of his Mist Guardians mouth.

Everyone froze with the amount of Killing Intent that came from nowhere. And then, as one, they all slowly turned to their boss. Instead of seeing their sweet boss, who couldn't hurt a fly, a demon sat in his place, his hair covering the top half of his face and a manic grin. The demon then spoke in a voice that sounded like the rattling of chains.

"My, dear Mukuro-kun, I never took you as someone who was stupid enough to disobey one of the most simplest rules I have given you."

The murderous grin was soon replaced with a devious smile as Tsuna stood from his seat. Then in a show of immature behavior, tackled Mukuro to the ground where he then shoved the rest of his cake (plate and all) into Mukuro's face. Then proceeded to bash his head with the plate that use to hold Mukuro's slice of cake before he inhaled it between the time it was set in front of him to the time he took a HUGE, GIGANTIC PIECE of Tsuna's cake.

Looks of pure shock passed over everyone's face as their boss mauled their male Mist Guardian. All the while leaking a considerable amount of Killing Intent for everyone in the Vongola Mansion to feel.

Several people ran from the building fearing that one of the Varia had come for an unexpected visit, never knowing it was in fact their kind, and lovable boss. While everyone else either fainted or shook in a frozen state of fear.

It would be a day the Vongola Guardians and Reborn would never forget, especially Mukuro because, he would never get the stench of chocolate out of his nose. Also, seeing the demon that was hidden behind his bosses naive and kind face that had hovered only inches away from his own would be forever carved into his memory.

Yet, the rest of the Guardians and Reborn didn't learn anything from this incident except to not steal their bosses cake anymore. But, their boss, would make them learn to follow the eight, simple rules he had made for them. No matter what.
