Chapter 9: Some new meetings

All attention was on the young woman at the door. She was smiling softly, as a girl with curly hair supported her. Tsuna saw Kisuke and Sakiko behind the female boss as well as two girls, one with cotton pink hair and the other with black hair. "As you can see, my family was attacked by the Sangue Diablo familgia 4 days ago. None of the guardians were killed, but 50 of our members lost their lives" The girl looks at each of the faces in the room. Then, as her eyes met with Tsuna's, their eyes clashed- or Tsuna 's eyes quickly went to another person, leaving Tsuna to think if he had imagined it.

"To build up our family again, please help us" With those words- the familgia bowed- creating a sincere applause from the whole room. As the speech ended and the people started to file out, Tsuna thought he saw a flash of silver hair. It was Senko. Trying to talk to her, he tried to reach her through the crowd, but was stopped as he bumped into a slim figure. "Oh! Sorry!" He apologized as he looked up- meeting with sky blue eyes. "It's okay" The teen he had bumped into said in a monotone, and walked off with another boy with long black hair. As they disappeared through the door, Tsuna wondered. Were they holding hands?

"Are you okay, Jyuudaime?" His Storm guardian asked, snapping him out of his thoughts. "I'm fine… but who were they?" "That was Kira Aku and Akira Mao, Jyuudaime. Both famous neutral mafiosos" He explained. "Apparently doesn't like company other than themselves" Tsuna nodded, and suddenly remembered why he had bumped into the two teen. "Senko-san!" He looked around, but the Vongola boss was nowhere to be seen.

"Tsuna-kun!" A familiar voice suddenly called out to him, and he was surprised to see a bob of red coming towards him. "Enma-kun?" The Shimon boss waved as he came towards the group, but suddenly fell forwards, clumsily tripping. As he smacked into the ground, Tsuna quickly ran over to him- but there was someone else tere first. "Are you alright?" Enma looked up to see a sleepy looking face looking down at him, smiling. He turned bright red as he hauled himself up. "I- I'm fine, thanks"

"Alice- chan?" Tsuna called in surprise, as he saw the Nastro D'argento Sun guardian with his friend. "Oh, hey Tsuna- kun! I was just looking for you!" "Huh?" The girl grinned, her eyes half- lidded but filled with fun. "You're Cloud guardian went off with Shiina- chan. They were talking about a fight" "Ehhhhhhhh?"

With the two Cloud guardians

"I didn't expect you to find me so fast, Hibari Kyoya" A girl with dark lavender hair said to the raven standing opposite her. "You promised a fight, Akemi Minako. Give me one" The prefect answered, tonfas out and ready. The pair was standing in the training grounds of the second base of the Ravina familgia, where the girl with pink hair –Amamiya Chiharu, the Lightning guardian there- had kindly shown them.

"Fine. Let's start" A silver scythe appeared in Shiina's hand, surrounding her in feathers. They launched at each other. As the scythe and tonfa clashed, like it did earlier in the week- the two Cloud guardians smirked. This was going to be fun.

A/N Aaaand, cut! Cliffie! Yeah!
