Chapter 6. I had to rewrite this because when I finished this before, it wasn't saved and the whole page only had, like five lines on it… Thanks to KuroYume, nellysbestfrend, Sweet18Candy and Christians for your much appreciated reviews! *huggles~*

Well, enjoy!

Chapter 6: Broker and the Cousin

Our favorite Vongola boss was inwardly sighing, as he watched his guardians bicker. So much had happened today, he was tired… "Tsunayoshi- san" He looked up to see the pink- haired Cloud guardian of the Nastro D'argento famiglia looking at him, expressionless. "W,what is it, Akemi –san?" The girl watched him, her silver eyes boring into him. "Shiina just wants to ask if you're all right"

Tsuna sweat dropped as Shiina twitched, glaring at the Mist guardian. "Be quiet, Taka" "Oh, you know I'm right" The messy haired teen smirked, and glanced at Tsuna. 'So, you're the new Vongola boss, huh? Well, I hope you'll do well" "Eh?" Tsuna stared at him, but the Mist guardian just joined the other Nastro D'argento members, who were having a conversation of their own.

"Don't worry about him, he's a little bit weird." The short Storm guardian stated, giving a look to Taka with his big, blue eyes. "Um… okay?" "I'm not weird, stupid Hiroto" As Tsuna felt slightly out of place between the two, his guardians came over to him. "Jyuudaime, are they troubling you? Should I teach them a lesson?" To Gokudera's enthusiastic question, Tsuna flailed his arms. "No, please don't do that!" "Haha, I guess violence isn't the answer" Well, guess who said that.

Suddenly, a voice rang out from nowhere. "Emilio!" Said guardian and the rest of the people all turned around, to see two figures walking towards them. "Mireille! What are you doing here?" The Rain guardian shouted, oblivious of the confused stares the others gave him. "I needed to see you! It's terrible!" The girl cried, blond curls bouncing.

"Well, isn't this interesting" Reborn appeared on Tsuna's shoulder. "Hmph, more herbivores coming into Namimori, how annoying" Our lovely prefect tched, while the others just watched the scene before them. "Well, I guess I'll take my leave here?" The other figure spoke, her black hair blowing in the wind. "…Kou?" Reborn whispered, and the figure's eyes met the hitman's black.

"…Mr. Reborn?" The figure- a woman, it seemed- said the arcobaleno's name, her grey eyes wavering. "Do you know her, Rebor-" "Mireille, what are you doing here?" Tsuna's question was cut off by a confused Rain guardian (Emilio). "Somebody you know?" Shiina asked, and he nodded without looking at her. "She's my cousin" The blond girl looked around her, as she took in the Vongola and Nastro D'argento guardians. She suddenly grabbed onto Emilio, and started to shout.

"The Sangue Diablo attacked the Ravina familgia!" "!" The place tensed for the third time today, as they took in the news. "What do you mean?" Senko asked in a calm voice, but to Tsuna, she looked like she already knew what was going on. "It's exactly as I said! Apparently Kishihito Milchkoppovich attacked the Ravina because their allied with us! Their decimo, Federica and her guardians are all alive, but their fatally injured…"

"Oi, what are you talking about?" Gokudera asked, annoyed that he didn't quite understand the situation. "Isn't it obvious! A familgia was attacked by Kishihito's family because they were allied to us!" Natsume shouted, looking angry. "It's his way of taunting us…" Taka gritted his teeth, the others silent. "U-um, and who is this?" Tsuna cut in, feeling awkward.

"I'm Mireille Grieco, the Cloud guardian of a family allied with Nastro D'argento…" The girl introduced herself, though looking unsettled. "And who's this woman?" Gokudera asked, staring at the raven woman, who was instead staring straight at a certain baby hitman standing on Tsuna's shoulder. "Reborn, do you know her?" Tsuna whispered, and the baby nodded. "She's an old friend" Tsuna looked at his tutor disbelievingly. Reborn, the sadistic baby hitman who likes to wake his students up with a mega hammer, calling someone and actual friend?

"Yes, even Mr. Reborn has friends, young Vongola" The young woman said. "Wha- how did-" "I'm not the only one who can read your mind, Dame- Tsuna" Reborn kicked Tsuna's cheek lightly, which shocked the young boss even more. Lightly? Really? "My name is Kogane Kou, information broker. Nice to meet you, everybody" Kou bowed slightly, and Gokudera gawked at her.

"Kogane Kou, the most famous and skilled information broker in the underworld?" "That's her" Reborn answered instead, hopping off Tsuna. "Why did you come with her, Mireille?" The blond girl grimaced at her cousin's question. "I… needed to report this to Miss Senko…" She glanced at the female boss. "And I didn't know where you guys were… so I hired her to tell me your location"

Taka looked sharply at Kou. "I thought only the Nastro D'argento knew about this, how did you know we were in Japan" Kou smiled gently, but the smile did not reach her eyes. "I'm an information broker, Mr. Suzuki Yoshitaka. Finding out about your location was easy" Taka looked annoyed at this, but Senko gave him a 'calm down' glance.

"SO, what did you want to report to us, Mireille?" She asked calmly. "Well, Miss Erica wants to see you as quickly as possible. All the allied families of Ravina familgia will be there!" "!" Reborn glanced at his student. "Oi, dame- Tsuna. Isn't the Vongola allied with them as well?" "Eh?" Tsuna started digging through his memory. "Wasn't the boss that Federica Ravina, Jyuudaime?" Gokudera helpfully said.

"Oh!" Tsuna exclaimed as he remembered the black haired girl he met at his inheritance ceremony. "Well, I guess we'll be heading there as well!" Yamamoto said, smiling cheerfully. "Miss Erica is injured badly… I wander if she is okay…" Mireille sighed, and then looked at Kou. "Um, thank you for helping me!" "No no, it's my job" The information broker just said before turning around and walking away.

"It was nice to meet you, Vongola and Nastro D'argento. Oh, and-" She turned around to look at Reborn who was now standing on a fence. "I think we'll see each other very soon. Well, ciao!" With that, she walked away. "Well… I guess we'll be seeing you later, Tsuna- san, everyone" Senko said, looking at Tsuna.

"Bye for now" Simply stating that, the young girl started walking, her guardians behind her. Watching them go, Tsuna just thought of how tired he was. "You can't be lazy yet, dame- Tsuna" Reborn smirked at him sadistically. "Everyone, get packing. We're going to Italy"

…

"Eh!"

Senko

Senko Shin was sitting on a park bench, away from her guardians who had let her be alone at her request. She looked up at the sky, now a deep red. Almost like blood.

A single tear rolled down her pale cheeks.

"Why, Kishihito… why do you keep on doing this?"

A/N Okay, Chapter 6 is done… more of the OCs submitted will make appearances in chapter 7. Please look forward to it!
