"Thanks for driving us mom." Addison climbed out of her mom's car in front of Tsuna's house. The car drove off towards Addison's house. Just as Addison was going to walk towards the door, a hand grabbed her shoulder. She was spun around and slammed against Tsuna's fence.
"Ew, it's you again." Addison pushed him away. "Ready to lose again?"
"You got lucky last time." The boy steadied himself, almost losing his balance.
"I'm in no mood to fight you." Addison began walking towards Tsuna's door again as a rough hand grabbed her wrist. Addison quickly turned, bringing her knee to his stomach then punching his nose.
"Come on guys." Addison skipped over to Tsuna's door, as if none of that just happened.
"What was that?" Serenity jogged up to the door as Addison knocked on it.
"You've fought him before?" Lynn followed right behind her.
"Yeah, first day here, same spot actually." Addison explained as the door was pulled open.
"Oh Addison come on in." Tsuna's mom opened the door wider.
"Hi, are the others still here?"
"Yep, they're all up in Tsuna's room."
"Thanks." Addison started up the stairs. "Come on guys."
"I want all of you to be a lot more ca. . ." Reborn was explaining, but cut off when Addison walked into the room with two non-Vongola's.
"You're an idiot." Addison slapped the back of Gokudera's head.
"What'd you do that for?" Gokudera glared up at her.
"You jinxed me, that guy showed up outside of the house." Addison paused, then continued. "Anyways, everyone this is Lynn and Serenity. Guys this is Gokudera, Yamamoto, Chrome, Ryohei, Lambo, and Tsuna with a bruise." Addison reached out to poke the bruise on Tsuna's cheek. Everyone was paying attention to the conversation except Lambo, who was coloring in a book; didn't look like a coloring book though.
"Yeah because you told Hibari I call him stupid." Tsuna crossed his arms.
"My first excuse didn't work." Addison sat next to Gokudera and Chrome. "You two will meet more people later, come, take a seat." Addison patted the ground.
"Boss, I should be going soon, Ken and Chikusa will get angry." Chrome said quietly, barely able to be heard.
"That's fine." Tsuna nodded.
"Why did she call you boss?" Lynn asked as Chrome left the room.
"Tsuna's the mafia boss." Yamamoto smiled.
"HIII!" Tsuna gasped, Gokudera slapping the young baseball player.
"We have a Mafia game going, Tsuna's the boss." Addison answered quickly.
"I have to get home. I'll be running to the EXTREME!" Ryohei darted out of the room.
"Can Lambo-san go pl. . ." Lambo looked up from his book, pausing when he saw Addison. "Addison!" He jumped into her lap. "Did you bring Lambo-san some candy today?"
"I might have some with me." Addison laughed, reaching into her coat pocket. Addison pulled out three suckers; green apple, cotton candy, and grape. "You get one, and you have to make sure Mama is ok with it since dinner will be ready soon, ok?"
Lambo nodded as his smile grew wider. He quickly grabbed the candy from her hand and ran out of the room laughing. "Ha, ha, Lambo-san has some candy!"
"Lynn, Serenity, you don't talk enough, there's no reason to be shy." Yamamoto turned to them with a smile.
"Don't talk enough, I can never get them to shut up." Addison mumbled, receiving a slap in the head from Serenity. "Hey!"
"Tsu-kun, dinner's ready." Tsuna's mom called from downstairs.
"Are you guys staying for dinner?" Tsuna stood up, Yamamoto already out the door.
"I think so." Addison started for the stairs. "Come on guys, you'll love Mama's cooking."
Once everyone was seated, Mama started asking Lynn and Serenity questions. "So, girls, where are you from?"
"Chicago, same as Addison." Lynn answered.
"This is delicious, I love it." Serenity's eyes sparked as she at the food.
"I'm glad you like it, did you all know each other before you came here?" Tsuna's mom smiled lightly. All three girls nodded.
"Best friends since third grade." Addison smiled brightly, thinking of their activities on the playground.
"It's wonderful that you guys were able to move over here together. I'll be upstairs, just put the dishes in the sink." She stood up, heading for the stairs.
"Lambo-san's done!" Lambo put down his plate. "Now I'm going to take yours." He reached for Serenity's plate.
"NO! This is my food!" Serenity shouted, pulling her plate away.
"You guys are being too loud." A voice said from the couch. Everyone looked over to see Futa sitting up on the couch. "Ah, you're eating!" He exclaimed, realizing he was sleeping through dinner. "Is there any left?"
"There should be some." Tsuna looked into the kitchen.
"I-pin, wake up." Futa poked at the other couch. With in minutes, I-pin and Futa were seated at the table with food in front of them.
"Guys this is I-pin and Futa." Addison introduced.
"Tsuna-nii, are these new friends?" Futa asked, taking a big bite of his food.
"Yeah, this is Lynn and Serenity." Tsuna nodded.
"Fine, if you won't give me your food, I'll just finish my candy." Lambo protested, putting the rest of his sucker in his mouth.
"Oh yeah, here." Addison pulled out the other two pieces of candy, handing them to the kids as her phone began to ring. "Hello?"
"Addison, you and the girls need to come home now, I've got food in the oven." Addison's mom voice came through the phone.
"Alright, we'll leave in a minute." Addison hung up, standing up. "Time to go girls."
"Thanks for the candy, Addison-nee." Futa smiled brightly.
"Thank you." I-pin jumped up, hugging Addison.
"You're welcome." Addison smiled, heading towards the door with Serenity and Lynn following.
"Bye guys." Yamamoto waved. As the girls put on their shoes to leave, Addison noticed Reborn standing at the top of the stairs. Addison was pulling the door shut behind her when Reborn started coming down them.
"So why are we going back?" Lynn asked as they started on their way.
"My mom said tha. . .Ah!" Addison started, but stopped when she was tackled to the ground. She didn't get to see who was on top of her, only that he punched her in the stomach before he got off and headed for her friends; who were staring confused for a second, but then got themselves ready to fight. A second person walked into the fight, both Serenity and Lynn were fighting, while Addison was trying to see who attacking her friends.
"Who are they fighting?" Reborn came from behind Addison, on a boy's shoulder. The boy had light brown hair and dark blue eyes, in his hand was a triangle shaped item, looking to be a blade.
"What you don't know?" Addison jumped to her feet.
"I was going to have Basil fight them." Reborn shook his head.
"Is that who this is?"
"Hello." The boy smiled.
"Then why are we just standing here?" Addison looked over to see her friends still doing fine, neither of them noticed that she was talking to someone.
"Just let them fight these guys, if they beat them they can be part of the Vongola family.
"But. . ."
"Addison." Reborn stopped her.
"Fine." Addison crossed her arms.
"Don't worry, if they need any help, we can help them." Basil smiled.
"Alright, anyways, I'm Addison." Addison stuck out her hand.
"Basil." He shook hands happily.
Addison turned to look at her friends, Lynn and Serenity were both standing there with their attackers on the ground.
"Addison, are you alright?" Lynn asked, walking towards them.
"Yeah I'm fine." Addison nodded.
"Who are you? Another person for me to beat?" Serenity asked glaring at Basil.
"No, no he's fine." Addison stepped next to Serenity, putting a hand on her shoulder.
"You girls did a pretty good job." Reborn jumped off Basil's shoulder and on to Addison's.
"You're. . . . ." Serenity turned to look at him more closely.
"How would you two like to join the mafia?"
"You're Reborn." Lynn pointed.
"He's training Tsuna to be the tenth mafia boss for the Vongola family, first day when I beat up those high schoolers he asked me to join too. When he found out earlier today that you were coming he wanted to test you." Addison explained.
"That means Gokudera. . . . " Serenity started.
"Also known as 'Smoking Bomb'." Addison nodded.
"I'll join." Lynn smiled.
"Me too." Serenity nodded.
"Alright, let's go before my mom has a hissy fit." Addison started walking.
"Come on Basil, to Tsuna's before all of the food is gone." Reborn jumped back to his shoulder. As Addison passed by the men on the ground, one of them began to push himself up off the ground.
"That hurt." Addison kicked the man back to the ground.
"Addison, you shoulder's bleeding." Lynn ran up and started looking at it.
"Don't pull my shirt back, that hurts my neck, we'll look at it when we get to my house."
The girls began walking, the sun beginning to set behind the houses and there wasn't a cloud in the sky.
"We haven't had a sky like this in a while, there are always clouds in the way." Addison smiled, opening her door.
"Girls is that you, dinner's ready." Addison's mom called from the kitchen.
"Alright mom, we just need to go to my room first." Addison called starting up the stairs.
"Hey, who are the guardians for Tsuna?" Serenity asked as she plopped onto Addison's bed.
"Well obviously, Tsuna has the sky Vongola ring. Yamamoto is rain, Lambo is lightning . . ." Addison begins explaining.
"That little kid?" Lynn gave Addison a strange look.
"Yeah. Man this is a white shirt too." Addison complained. "Um, Gokudera is storm, Ryohei is sun, Hibari is cloud; he wasn't at Tsuna's when we got there, and Chrome is half of the mist guardian. I guess she kind of shares it with Mukuro who wasn't there either. Mukuro is in Vendicare." Addison reached under her bed and pulled out a kit. The kit included washrags, bandages and different items used for injuries. "You guys can go down stairs, I'll be down in a minute." Addison grabbed herself a second shirt and went across the hall to the bathroom with a wash rag.
"She's certainly prepared." Serenity pointed out.
"Well it's a good thing she is since she's in the Mafia, she can't have her mom finding out." Lynn stood up, starting for the stairs. Addison stood in the bathroom, pulling off her shirt and running the bloody part under cold water.
"Aw, geez this is my school shirt too." Knowing the stain wouldn't come out immediately, she clogged the sink and let she shirt soak in cold water. She wet the washrag and began whipping the small bit of dried blood off of her shoulder. "Must have hit the curb harder than I thought." She told herself. Her shoulder had stopped bleeding.
"Addison!" Serenity called from the bottom of the stairs.
"What?" Addison shouted back, slipping on her second shirt and stepping out of the bathroom.
"Get down here." Lynn called next. Addison made her way down the stairs, turning the corner into her dining room. She stopped in the doorway. Her mom, Serenity's mom, and Lynn's mom were all unconscious on the ground. The fathers had gone out for a night together, so they weren't home.
"What? How did this happen?" Addison got next to her mom in the kitchen. "The stove's still on." She mumbled to her self, turning off the burner. There was a small thud coming from the back room on the first floor; her parent's, as if something was dropped. Addison quickly stood up and started for the room.
"Where are you going?" Serenity looked up from trying to move her mom to the couch.
"Stay here." Addison commanded, not even looking back at her friends. She hesitated, but pushed open the door to a girl sitting on her parent's bed. The girl had long brown hair that came to her waist in a neat braid and very light blue eyes. The girl didn't say anything, she simply stood up and began walking towards Addison who took a small step back. She stopped a few steps short from running into Addison. Addison jumped backwards just as the girl went to punch her. The girl started running after her, ready to attack again.
"Addison is everythi. . . ." Lynn began, stepping into the hall, but stopping when Addison ran past her. "Addison?" When the girl came flying after her, Lynn followed, very worried.
"Hey, where are you going?" Serenity ran into the hall, watching them run out the front door.
"Addison, what are you doing?" Lynn asked, standing in the door way.
"Well this morning, Reborn told us we had a new enemy, well here she is." Addison explained as she dodged the attacks. "Go tell Reborn what's going on."
"Right, Serenity, let's go." Lynn grabbed Serenity's wrist; who had just came to the door, and began running towards Tsuna's house. The girl tried to follow them, but stopped when Addison stepped in front of her.
"You're fighting me." Addison smirked.
"Why did you move this fight outside, it's suppose to get chilly tonight."
"I have breakables in my house, my mom would be awfully upset if I broke something."
"Reborn!" Serenity shouted, barging into Tsuna's house.
"You could knock." Lynn stepped in behind her.
"We have more important things to do."
"What do you need?" Reborn stood at the top of the stairs.
"Addison's being attacked." Lynn explained.
"By who?"
"She said something about this new enemy." Serenity shared.
"Not good, Tsuna, let's go."
"Go where?" Tsuna asked, coming out of his room.
"To Addison, Gokudera and Yamamoto, you're coming too." Reborn jumped down the stairs next to Lynn. "Where is she?"
"Outside her house."
Addison slid backwards when receiving a kick to the stomach. She glared up at the girl who was coming towards her. A car pulled up along the street, and just sat there a minute.
"Sister, there you are." A boy jumped out of the back seat. The boy had dark red hair, and blue eyes just like the girl did.
"Ichiro, perfect timing, how many men do you have with you?"
"Two, why?"
"Tell them to come here." She smirked. Addison stood herself up, when she saw how big the two men were, she started to get worried. Both were twice Addison's size; one man was bald and had a small beard going, the second was for the most part shaved on the top of his head and had a mustache starting to grow, and both of the guys had dark eyes.
"What do you want?" The bald man asked in a deep, creepy voice.
"Help me get her." The girl pointed towards Addison. The two men walked towards Addison. Addison at first, only took a small step back, but as they got closer, they looked bigger and bigger compared to her.
'I can't win this fight.' Addison told her self. She quickly turned around and began running towards Tsuna's. As she rounded a corner, she could see Tsuna and the others running towards her. Next thing she knew, there was pain all over the front side of her body. One of the men had talked her to the ground. She was being held down so she couldn't get up.
"Addison!" Tsuna called, the group running a little faster.
"Get off me you fat head!" Addison shouted at the man, trying to wiggle out from under him.
"Good job, while I distract her friends, take her to the house." The girl stepped in front of Addison and the man, walking towards her group of friends. The man picked Addison up off of the ground and started walking the way they had come from. Addison tried to wiggle free of the man's grip, but no matter how hard she tried, she didn't move a bit; he was too strong. He took Addison into a house that was light blue in color and had a Sakura tree in front of it, the roof was a dark blue. Addison didn't get a chance to see the address of the house.
"Here's the deal, you give me the Vongola rings and I'll give what's her name back." The girl explained.
"What do you need the rings for?" Gokudera crossed his arms.
"I'll give you more information tomorrow." She started walking a different direction that Addison had been taken.
"Let's go tell Reborn." Tsuna started jogging back towards his house.
The man holding Addison walked into a plain room, there was nothing. The walls were white, as was the ceiling and the flood was a light brown carpet. The man dumped Addison on the floor and began walking back to the door.
"Wait I want a real fight!" Addison shouted before the man shut the door, locking it from the other side. "Can I at least have something to do?" Addison asked, knowing her wouldn't hear.
"How did you let that happen?" Reborn asked.
"We couldn't do anything, she was being taken as we showed up." Gokudera snapped.
"Don't worry I'm sure she'll be fine, what's the worse that could happen?" Yamamoto asked, trying to reassure everyone.
"A lot of things, anyways we'll just have to figure out what we're going to do. How long until we need to give her the rings?"
"She didn't say, she said that she'd give us more information tomorrow morning." Tsuna explained.
"Everyone go home and rest, we'll worry about this before school tomorrow." Reborn was getting ready for bed. Now in his PJs Reborn laid in his hammock bed he had in the corner of the room and was a sleep in seconds.
"Ah, our parents, what do we tell them?" Lynn remembered.
"We need to get back to Addison's." Serenity started for the door.
"Just tell them . . . ." Tsuna started, but stopped not being able to think of a lie.
"Tell them that Kyoko needed help with homework, so she's spending the night, she'll go straight to school tomorrow." Gokudera said quickly.
"Thanks, see you guys tomorrow." Lynn ran after Serenity.
"They're really nice." Yamamoto smiled. "I guess we should get some rest like the kid said." Yamamoto began to leave. "Bye-bye."
"See you tomorrow Tenth." Gokudera smiled lightly, heading out of the room as well.
"She may look like she's asleep but really. . ." Addison woke up to the girls voice talking. She opened her eyes finding her self in the same white boring room as yesterday.
"I am asleep." Addison rolled over, facing the other way.
"Is that Addison? Addison are you alright?" Tsuna's voice asked.
"Tsuna?" Addison turned back towards the girl. She was sitting in front of a computer. She was having a video chat with Tsuna. "Oh, Tsuna, yep, I'm fine." Addison sat up, getting closer to the computer.
"Anyways," The girl continued, "I need those rings by five tonight or else things will start happening to your friend."
"What kind of things?" Gokudera asked, crossing his arms.
"Do you want me to show you?" The girl didn't wait for a reply, she began moving closer to Addison.
"Gokudera!" Addison snapped, trying to move away, but ended up backing into a wall. From where she was positioned, her friends couldn't see her from the computer. The girl pinned Addison's arms against the wall and pulled out a needle from her pocket.
"What the hell is that?" Addison shouted, trying to pull away. "For as small as you are, you're really strong." She mumbled.
"Addison?" Lynn's worried voice came from the computer
Addison stopped struggling when the needle touched her skin; knowing it would hurt more if she moved. The needle pierced her skin. Before she knew it the needle was out and the girl walked away. 'What the hell was in that?' Addison was beginning to panic on the inside.
"Gokudera, when I get back I'm going to kick your ass!" Addison yelled.
"Five o'clock." The girl smirked, shutting the computer.
"Hey, what did you just give me?" Addison stood up off the ground.
"It's nothing serious . . . ." She walked over to the door, pulling her long hair up into a pony tail. "Unless. . ." The girl trailed off, stepping out of the room and shutting the door.
