Chapter 6
Tsuna... was in a unique situation one could say. It wasn't the first time he was in a unique and just plain weird situation, and Tsuna had doubts that it would be the last time he would be in a situation that was weird as long as Reborn was still in his life. But this situation was one he has not experienced before. It was one he never thought it would happen to him in the first time.
Because he's pretty sure that at least half of the class is staring at him like an animal put on exhibit. It wasn't exactly what one could call a pleasant feeling.
After Negi had (somehow) stopped Asuna and Ayake from momentarily killing each other (again), Negi decided to assign everyone their seats. Hamuko was seated by Asuna and another girl by the name of Kasuga Misora. All the boys had sat in the back of the classroom in the seats that were available.
The seats that 'magically' appeared out of nowhere for some reason and when they tried asking Negi how, Negi got a dark, depressed look saying "You really don't want to think about it". The boys then realized maybe they shouldn't ask about it at all.
Well... almost all the boys. There was the fact that Tsuna somehow got placed between Akira and Ako. But it's a coincidence was what Tsuna thought. (Was being the key word.)
Let's just say fate just loves screwing around with everyone's favorite Tuna.
"Anyways... now that everyone is now under control and seated, we can sta-"
*KSSH* The sound of the door opening stopped Negi from starting the lesson and everyone turned around to see who it was.
They turned around to see... was that a baby in a scientist's jacket with Einstein hair and a mustache to boot?
"HIEEEEEEEEEE! REBORN!" Tsuna shrieked in fear and fell out of his chair scaring the wits out of Ako and Akira.
Yes... maybe for Tsuna he should stop trying to think positive and start thinking negative. Maybe if he did, the universe would do the opposite of the negative and he would finally get a break... or maybe Gaia will continually just make his life a living hell. Poor Tsuna.
'Oh no... why is otou – san here?' Mana thought worried. Now how was she going to make sure Tsuna was purposely- er, accidentally dying due to a rather unfortunate and downright coincidental accident she might have been planning out earlier.
'Please tell me this is a joke?' Jake thought while groaning to himself. Now how was he going to flirt with the girls here? He thought Reborn would take awhile before teaching class!
...Why does he feel a huge amount of killing intent directed at him again?
"Eh... you know this kid Tsuna?" Akira asked after she got over her shock from his outburst.
"Uhhh... Are you lost?" Negi asked confused. Why is a baby inside of a scientist jacket?
'AHHHHHHH! I CAN HUG HIM NOW!' Hamuko squealed in her head.
"Caiossu." Reborn said, looking at Negi with his beady black eyes. "My name is Reboyama. I have been hired as an assistant teacher to help you out."
"NANI?" Everyone yelled out. Were they really that bad that a baby needed to teach them? And how the heck did a baby get a job teaching in the first place?
"W-what do you mean assistant teacher?" Negi squeaked out in confusion. Was this a part of his trail? Or did he screw up somewhere very badly besides the obvious and now he needs someone 5 years younger than him helping him out?
"It means I will help you teach all of these rejects that society has forgotten." Reborn bluntly said. "I will help you straighten out these bakas here and make sure they are good students."
'Well that was bluntly put.' Kazuma thought while feeling nervous as there was killing intent being leaked out around the room by a few people.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN IDIOT'S AND REJECTS OF SOCIETY, BABY?" Asuna shouted out as she stood up from her seat and slamming down her hands on the table.
"Shut up." Was Reborn's reply before throwing chalk at Asuna's forehead. It hit her hard on the head.
"ITAI! THAT HURT!" Asuna shouted out as she knelt down and rubbed her forehead. Reborn frowned at Asuna before turning to Ayaka.
"You there." Reborn said. Ayaka blinked looking surprised. "You were causing a disturbance earlier right?"
Ayaka blinked again. "Well... maybe me and Asuna were having a little disp-"
"Good enough for me." Reborn interrupted her before throwing a piece of chalk at her forehead. It her hard enough to knock her out on the desk.
"Hmm." Reborn muttered out loud. "I wonder why that didn't knock the other one out like this one."
"STOP USING PEOPLE AS A WAY FOR EXPEXPERIMENTATION!" Tsuna yelled out pointing at Reborn.
"Why?" Reborn asked.
"YOUR ASKING WHY?" Tsuna asked in surprise. He really shouldn't be. After everything he goes through with Reborn, it really should not surprise him that Reborn would use a random innocent person to figure something out or scare a class. It happened before on Parent's Day, so it should happen with this class.
"If you're done yelling at empty space Dame – Tsuna, may I please continue my introduction?" Reborn asked, somehow mysteriously teleporting right onto Negi's desk.
"B-but, how?" Tsuna cried holding his head while tears fell down his face. Things were just not going his way lately. Then again, things tend not to for poor dame Tsuna.
Isn't it Sad, Tsuna?
…
"Now that you all are listening, I will now introduce myself before teaching your first lesson." Reborn began to talk.
'But it's English this time though.' Negi thought confused.
"My name is Reboyama." Reborn said. "The Dean has personally asked me to help straighten the lot of you bakas out." He continued. "I know that you all have done well on the test earlier a few weeks ago, but I'm here to make sure you don't start slipping and start screwing things up for your teacher and stand out more."
The Baka Rangers grimaced as Reborn was talking. Of course they would because they were almost late to the test that would have decided whether or not Negi could stay as a teacher for Mahora and teach their class. Asuna knew that it went more deeper than that though. It had more to relate if Negi could past his test for his magic. She knew that it was important to him so he could find his father.
"So let us begin our first lesson. I will be giving you an equation on the board here. This will give me a good grasp on what you already know so I can figure out which type of tor- I mean 'lessons' I should teach and the way I will be teaching you for the year." Reborn said. He began to write down on the chalkboard very quickly and finished it in less than 10 seconds. "Also, whoever solves this the fastest will be given an opportunity for a job in the mafia."
'THIS AGAIN?' Tsuna screamed in his mind. Last time this had happened, Reborn knocked out a few people while Gokudera had collapsed from him seeing his sister and Lambo embarrassed him. Though the fact Reborn shot him with a Dying Will Bullet and him going crazy and his underwear while teaching the class probably got him more embarrassed. But hey! At least he doesn't have to worry about Lambo or Gokudera this time!
Most of the class would have paid attention to the last part if it were not for the fact a lot of them were stumped that a baby wrote down a high school equation in less than 10 seconds and the equation itself. Though one girl was paying to the last part. Well one girl and the Darkwater squad. Then again, it was hard for them NOT to pay attention after the only time they didn't Hamuko and Kazuma almost blew up Grey.
He didn't talk to them for a week, but that's because he was unconscious and in the hospital for a bit. The blast may have made him forget why he went to the hospital as well.
'Wait... what?' Chisame thought confused. 'What does he mean "mafia"? More importantly, why the heck is a BABY teaching us' She thought in despair. She was already annoyed with Negi. Having another child teacher, this one already 10 years younger than her no less, was already a major blow to her ego and hope for getting a normal class again.
'Why... is Reborn offering a few children here a job in the mafia?' Tokiya thought confused. Surely there was no reason to get a bunch of children with no training a place in the mafia. Maybe it was his way of saying a joke? 'Hmm. Well, I guess I'll just solve the problem for now.' He thought amused. Let him play along for now.
"You have 10 minutes to start and you may have no help on the problem." Reborn continued on. "Those who do not follow the rules will get punished. Those who do not even try or look like trying will get punished." Reborn concluded with a dark smirk on his face.
'NOOOOOOOOOOOO!' Tsuna wailed in despair as he bent over and clutched his head. How could he even accomplish this type of math? He knew of it or even where to begin. He would definitely be punished by Reborn. Stupid math equation written by some aliens made of magic no doubt.
'Damn it.' Both Jake and Hamuko cursed in their head as soon as they heard the conditions. It's not to say that they were idiots, it's to say the fact that both Jake and Hamuko really did not care much for... the other math. Was it really necessary for them to learn Trigonometry when they focused more on how to assassinate someone was more important?
Grey and Ryuuji looked at the board in boredom. They already knew the answer. Of course, since they didn't like the idea of punishment from Reborn, they would just show their work and the answer when he says go.
A few, and by a few, I mean mostly the Baka Rangers and a few others, looked quite scared of the problem. They did not understand how to find it. How do you divide the square root of 3 over 2 by one half? And why are they in parentheses and next to a huge circle with lines in it and other numbers? There was no way they could solve this!
...Well, it's not like they had to actually do the problem right? A punishment from the baby didn't sound so bad. What could possibly go wrong?
…
"Everything just went completely wrong in under 10 minutes." Grey said shaking his head in disbelief.
Kazuma and Ryuuji just nodded their head in agreement with Grey. Tokiya raised an eyebrow after the chaos, but really was not surprised. Jake and Hamuko would have something to input as well if it weren't for the fact Reborn had knocked them out earlier. Tsuna, who had hidden behind Kazuma, nodded his head shaking a bit in fear.
The Baka Rangers were knocked out. Not just them, but a few other girls were on their desk unconscious as well. As were Jake and Hamuko. The scene before Grey was not something he figured would be possible. He knew Reborn's punishment would be harsh and probably a little bit painful after his first impressions this morning and last night.
But was knocking the girls out really the solution and punishment for this?
The Baka Rangers had out up a fight. They had decided not to do the problem and just wait for the 10 minutes to end. Of course, Reborn had noticed and did not like the fact they did not obey him. So he did the only thing he could do.
Throw a chalk at them and have them knocked out.
Negi had protested at first, but one glare from Reborn had stopped Negi immediately and left him frozen fear. Asuna got angry at the fact that he decided punishment would them would be knocking them out and that he scared Negi when he was trying to help out.
Though she would never admit that out loud.
She had 5 chalk sticks thrown at her at a very high speed. She felt the pain of each of them. Reborn was annoyed that this girl still did not drop down in unconsciousness. Seriously, the amount of force he had given in each blow by all rights probably would have put a normal person in a coma.
Then Hamuko tried to take a peek at Misora's work to see what she had done.
Reborn had noticed and took her out with 2 blows.
He had also noticed Jake taking a peak at Tokiya's work and took him out.
Tsuna, who was actually trying to solve and wrote stuff down, went very quickly behind Kazuma because he felt like Reborn try attacking him for no reason and would make a convincing argument against anyone for his reason attacking him.
And then we come to a full circle.
Negi looked at the scene in all. What he done with some respect in sort of getting the class to pay attention in class, Reborn had complete rule and obedience with fear.
The guys in the back, who finished their work, decided to stay silent, lest they get the fury of Reborn on them instead.
Chrome, who was quietly working on the problem, simply blinked at the scene before her. She then walked towards Hamuko and was making sure her friend was alright.
And the girls? Even though they had no clue what to do on the problem, they decided just to keep working. You know, until Reborn had taken out most of the Baka Rangers, Hamuko, and Jake. Now they are just sitting and paying attention in complete fear.
Reborn sighed at the scene before him. "I was hoping that you guys were at least better than Dame – Tsuna but you have actually proven to be worse than him." He then gave the whole entire class a mischievous smile. "But don't worry. I will completely remedy that. I now know exactly how to... teach this class.'
"Tsuna... should I be scared of that sentence?"
Tsuna sobbed as he answered. "Yes Kazuma – san. You should definitely be scared from that sentence."
…
"Augh... this day could not have gone worse." Tsuna sighed as he crouched over. Surprisingly, Tsuna was actually walking with the guys out of the classroom. Chrome and Hamuko decided to get to know the girls better and stay behind to chat with them.
Ryuuji was on Tsuna's left while Kazuma was on Tsuna's right. Tokiya was dragging Jake again as well as he was still unconscious. Just a testament to Reborn's true strength... or what little of it he used against them.
"I don't know Tsuna." Kazuma said, "Reborn could have done worse things it seems to me."
"Please don't tempt fate." Grey sweat dropped. "I really would not like to see Reborn at his worst."
"Probably would be dead." Ryuuji said with a yawn. "I think if Reborn went his worse on his torture, we probably would be dead. This IS the number 1 hitman in the world we are talking about here. He probably went very easy on us today."
"What I'm more concerned about is the fact that he actually offered those children a chance in the mafia if they solved the problem." Tokiya said joining in on the conversation. "I have no clue why he would want to hire a bunch of people who have no idea how to fight or even look like they have the stamina to fight."
"If you're surprised by him trying to find more people to join, I can't wait for the look on your face when he forces you to join ours." Tsuna muttered under his breath. Tsuna's getting smart here! He's already anticipated one of Reborn's moves!
"Fnn. You actually guess what I was going to do?" There was movement in the bush and then Reborn jumped out!
"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU A SQUIRRELL?" Tsuna screeched.
"Because my sparrow costume is in dry cleaning."
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT!" Tsuna yelled out pointing furiously at Reborn.
"...Damn it Kazuma."
"What did I do?" Kazuma asked, a bit hurt my Ryuuji's statement.
"You tempted fate... that's what you did." Grey sighed. This day got better and better by the hour. He just could not wait to see what was in store for him now.
"...I don't get it." Kazuma said confused. How did he tempt fate? All he did was ask a question.
"Hmm." Tokiya was thinking. He had pushed up his glasses on the bridge up on his nose. Reborn must have some important news for them. Maybe.
"I came here to remind Dame – Tsuna about his training." Reborn said, as if reading Tokiya's mind. Probably did. "I wouldn't be a good tutor if I didn't remind my dame – student his punishment now would I?"
"Why are you always happy to tell me things that make me miserable or in pain, but I hardly hear anything good from you?" Tsuna asked miserably.
"A good question but it is a mystery yet to be resolved unfortunately." Reborn said mysteriously.
"LIES!" Tsuna jumped up and yelled.
"Shut up." Reborn jumped up and kicked Tsuna in the face. "You're going into the forest to train with Evangeline with Grey today."
"...What?" Grey asked wide eyed. "I'm pretty sure somewhere in the morning that you said it was only Tsuna facing punishment for training, not me."
'YOU'RE ABANDONING ME!' Tsuna shrieked in his head.
"I did." Reborn said frowning. "But she insisted that you would train with my student."
"But… Why?" Grey asked desperately. It was the first day of school. He had a bad day yesterday because of the women. He would rather not go through 'Hell Week Day #2' right now.
Reborn gave a blank look at him. "I wouldn't tell you. You're going to have to find that out yourself." He then turned around. "Well, bye!"
And with that, Reborn disappeared in a flash of... nothingness.
"Man oh man." Ryuuji muttered under his breath. "Well, later guys. I'm going to find something to eat." He turned and began to walk away from the group. He paused before turning his head and shoulder to look at Tokiya. "You want to come?"
"..." Tokiya said nothing. But he soon adjusted his glasses and began to drag Jake towards Ryuuji's direction. "...Lets go." The group of 3 men... well 2 men and a knocked out guy then began to proceed into the great unknown to find somewhere to eat and to find... their new hangout.
"..."
"..."
"...We were abandoning to our fate huh?"
"...Yeah."
"...Lets go. The sooner we get this done, the sooner we can rest."
"...Yeah."
"...Aren't you going to follow?"
"...Yeah. I just want to look a bit at the sunset. At the rate this is going, it might be my last chance.
"Ah."
"..."
"..."
And so the two men gazed upon the beautiful sun, as it began to set, leaving behind beautiful scenery. As the two men began to look at the scenery, there was only one thing to do.
Shed a manly tear, turn around, and meet thy doom.
It was to be note that soon after screams and other noises of fear and pain were heard throughout the day.
…
"So how was your first day of class Reborn?" Shizuna asked him curiously. To many in the magi world, not many know of the Dying Will Flame or the Arcobaleno. Fewer know that it ties with the mafia. So to meet the Sun Arcobaleno is an honor and a rare meeting. Not just a Sun Arcobaleno, but the teacher of the 10th Vongola Head as well as the underworld's number 1 hitman. A rare meeting indeed.
"Fnn." Reborn was on Shizuna's shoulder sitting down. Leon was lazily lying down on his hat. "I never thought I would find a class with some people as incompetent as Dame – Tsuna. I was proven wrong today."
"I... see." Shizuna sweat dropped at Reborn's statement. 'I guess I can't take that as a compliment for them.'
"Though, they do seem like that a few of them have some sort of ability to them." Reborn continued on, smiling his evil little smile. "I am very interested in teaching a few of them. Especially of Dame – Asuna."
Shizuna blinked at Asuna's name. "Asuna... -chan?"
Reborn nodded in glee. "As much as it annoys me, she's been able to take my... punishment and it doesn't go the exact way it should. And she's as much of a Baka as Tsuna. So it will be easy to force the both of them to teach them my way."
"Uh." Shizuna was at a loss for words. Whatever she expected her conversation to be with Reborn was like, it obviously wasn't this. Though, it can't be that bad, right?
There's no possible way that things could be going horribly for Asuna and that new kid Tsuna. She's sure Reborn means spending more time and actually getting them to do their homework.
As Shizuna continue to think and walk towards the faculty office, Reborn was deep in thought.
Asuna. That girl was able to withstand the blunt force which would put even a medium class assassin in a coma. How could she have not been knocked out by the force and pain of it? Could she... actually have gone through some training before? Or could she just be that thick headed enough to take on his strike?
If it was the first one, he would quickly have Tsuna befriend her. That would be the easy way to make her a part of the family. But if it's the latter...
Reborn smirked. Well they had a week before the trip to Kyoto. Tsuna shouldn't mind a training partner.
Especially if said training partner might get interested in him. This week was going to be fun.
…
Well people it's been a while since I have posted a chapter so let me give you a big hug!
...At ease, without the boner.
I would like to thank dad90 for betaing. Thanks for taking the time to help me improve upon my chapter.
So there's a good reason why this chapter has been delayed for a long time. A few of them actually. So I guess I will point them out.
First, I got sicked pretty badly and got a major headache for about a week. I completely forgot where I was going with my chapter and had to try over again. Secondly, someone I had known personally and was quite close to had died and I had to deal with the pain and other unfortunate feelings with it. Was not pleasant.
And finally, I took a break and kind of lost my mojo. I... took a break off of writing. I didn't think I was going to take that long though. So I would like to apologize for taking so long for the chapter.
Also, look at my avatar. It says asshat and is a rendition of Kotomine Kirei. I think that also is a valid reason.
The reason this chapter was on the short side of things is because I wanted to get this uploaded as fast as I could. I feel bad when I don't do something. Call it a complex
Anyways, I have some news before I continue on. I would like to say that I will be fusing some chapters together and that I'm going to be editing them. I look at them and cringe at what I have written. So there might or might not be some major changes in it. So don't get terrified when you notice the chapter count go down some.
Also, the story line will pick up next chapter. That's right people. The damn author is finally making his move towards the story! Which he probably already should have been in.
I have read the ending to Negima. I feel like there was a lot of potential missing from there and there were things missing. I didn't necessarily hate it though. Feel like there was missing potential in it.
Another thing, please leave some reviews on what I should improve upon. I would really like some help on improving this. Or if you want to complain or praise me. Whatever you wish to do.
Also, I have decided to put music that I believe will go on with the story. All music will be on my profile page. (As soon as I see that if the damn hyperlink worked or not. If not, I will just link directly to with the URL.) I won't be putting down what you should listen to, but my profile page will have music that you can listen to with the story if you want.
So review please. And I hoped you enjoyed this chapter.
