A/N: hey guys:) first off happy new years! I thank you guys for the reviews! Honestly every morning after I wake up there's like 20 something emails of reviews and favorites and alerts! Anyways let's have a discussion! Many have tried to guess up this story and I'm sad to say no ones got it yet. Most are extremely close!

But I think after this chapter it will be cleared up and most likely easier to see. Also, This chapter is a little leap in the Ieyasu, Caelum friendship and I leave a bunch of hints. Also a Gokudera POV. I hope you guys enjoy this chapter and votes are final. Sorry guys . R27 won majority vote:) enjoy this chapter sorry for grammar mistakes and plain mistakes review please!~

Ah I might have mixed up the weapons of a character because of a fanfic I read.. but as far as I can think , there are no major oc's, only small ones like owners of coffee shops and stuff. So yeah:) enjoy!

"Ah, you've arrived." He said silently a smile twisting on his lips as the young man entered his office.

"Of course! I can't deny a direct request from you!"

The man behind the chair chuckled before leaning back and crossing his legs. "Have a seat, this is going to take awhile."

The young man twisted the bag on his shoulder before dropping it into the ground and taking a seat. "Alright, I'm prepared. Tell me what's been bothering you."

The other sighed releasing his tense shoulders before smiling weakly. "I've been visited by him again, this time it wasn't for a friendly chat."

The young man with dark brown hair stuttered in surprise. "What?! I thought he finished his job decades ago."

The boss gave a playful pout trying to lift the atmosphere. "Now, don't say that. It makes me feel old." At the irritated groan from his companion he laughed. "I've called you here for a request. You are the only who can help ensure this can happen. Me and that man have talked it over and he will help you accomplish this. We have viewed every single possible outcome, this is our final solution."

His voice was grave, the authority he held as a boss coming to play with the younger man in front of him. This was serious business, that much was certain.

"What did he tell you?"

The bosses soft eyes gazed at him with a hint of sorrow. "Talbot, what do you believe the future will look like years from now?"

Ieyasu stared at the ceiling of his bedroom trying to sort out his jumbled thoughts. It was those dreams again. It had been years since he had one. Ever since Takuto was born they had stopped and he had normal dreams like a normal person.

He rubbed his forehead and sighed.

The damn dreams always left him sleepy and took him awhile to get proper sleep. He stayed in bed for a few more minutes wondering who on earth Talbot was before his door slammed open. Reborn had a Leon mallet in his hands ready to use until he caught sight of Ieyasu's blue eyes.

Maybe he was imagining it but Reborn looked upset he had woken up on time.

"Idiot Ieyasu, we have visitors today, Caelum decided to join you for breakfast." The blonde gave a nod and sat up giving a yawn as Reborn left, grumbling something under his breath. He decided to think about the dream later. If Caelum came for breakfast, that meant it was going to get loud pretty fast.

He was slightly curious though, Caelum never ate breakfast with them. He always managed to appear when Ieyasu was walking out the door. After dressing in his usual uniform, and slightly stumbling out his bedroom door, he grabbed his book bag and headed down stairs. Arriving he saw Caelum sitting on the stair railing, Lambo and Takuto sitting on the staircase talking to him.

"Morning, Caelum!" Ieyasu exclaimed as he jogged down the steps, taking the chance to pat Takuto on the head. Caelum nodded before he suddenly jerked up and jumped onto Ieyasu shoving the blonde onto the stairs.

"Slow reflexes!" A woman's voice exclaimed as Caelum, gave a tiny sigh and got off Ieyasu who rubbed the back of his head in pain.

Where his head had been previously, three daggers were planted into the wall.

"Wow, I'm so glad you're here to save my ass, Caelum."

They didn't get a chance to discuss anything before something grabbed the back of Caelum shirt and yanked him into a standing position. Ieyasu did a double take with the girl in front of him. She looked to be Reborn's age and had a deadly aura surrounding her. She was also very pretty.

"Listen up and listen good because I'm not going to repeat myself! Reborn asked me to train you into Vongola tenth and so did Caelum, that's the only reason I'm doing this. Get your ass moving because I don't take on slackers!"

Yeah, she was a scary woman.

Caelum was shaking his head in almost exasperation.

"He doesn't look like much Caelum, hey!" Another teenage came into the room looking slightly younger then the others. He had blonde shaggy hair and baby blue eyes. Ieyasu could tell with a single glance they weren't Japanese. Caelum walked towards Ieyasu lending a hand to help the boy up.

"Since Caelum isn't going to introduce us, I will. I'm Lal March. This blonde idiot is my ex-student , Colonello. He will be here to watch your training as well." Lal put simply before stalking off to the kitchen. Colonello smiled before wrapping an arm around Caelum's and Ieyasu's neck dragging them forward.

Takuto picked up Lambo in his arms before following quickly. Ieyasu kept in a groan at the full kitchen and his moms happy outcries of 'new tutors!' His life was never going to be normal again.

"Lal's punches hurt." Ieyasu mumbled while rubbing his arm. Tsuna only snickered softly at the blondes discomfort. Before being shoved out of the house Lal had made it clear she wasn't going to take on slackers. Ieyasu had gotten a full frontal punch which, in Tsuna's opinion, was better then when she brought in her slapping methods.

"What's up with all these tutors anyways, I thought you and Reborn were the only ones asked to do this job. Am I that much of a bad student I need help?" At Ieyasu's teary pout Tsuna rolled his eyes. He pulled put his phone answering Uni's text while Ieyasu wallowed in self pity.

Tsuna didn't manage to finish his text before his senses picked up on something dangerous headed their way. He snapped his head to the side quickly picking up his bag to smack away the offending can of soda.

"What the?" Ieyasu questions suddenly alert. Tsuna saw someone drive away clearly not expecting to be stopped by him. Tsuna looked at the cans releasing poisonous gas before frowning. This was an obvious work of an assassin and also one he was familiar with.

He grabbed Ieyasu's sleeve and dragged the stuttering blonde forward. He could handle her easily. He had worked to many jobs with her and Reborn to know exactly how she worked. He assumed his change in appearance is what kept her from recognizing him right away. With that in mind he turned back to his phone, as if no one had tried to take Ieyasu's life.

School was boring.

Something Tsuna added to his list of reasons to not join school completely. He spent the entire time trying to throw the free lance assassin off from her attempts. He was proud to say he managed to do a pretty good job.

Uni had also been more happy while texting him. He was glad his scary aura worked in making sure the teacher never stole his phone away(the man had tried to take it once, but it resulted in immediately returning it after Tsuna sent him a sickening glare. Ieyasu had managed to drag him out of the room before he did anything stupid).

After school Gokudera and Yamamoto tagged along wanting to walk Ieyasu home. But after Ieyasu described his new tutors and that today was going to be his first day, Tsuna kindly kicked them in the right direction. Gokudera stuttered apologies while Takeshi laughed waving at Tsuna while promising to take him sushi tomorrow. Over time the two had managed a correct way to connect with him.

Though Tsuna would never admit it he enjoyed their company a lot and had come to terms in letting them through his defensive shield he built up over the years of assassin work. Getting home Ieyasu greeted his mother and brother not realizing Tsuna had slipped upstairs to where he was sure Reborn was residing.

Opening the door he was greeted with his three guardians in a heated discussion. Reborn looked up annoyed his black eyes narrowed in irritation. Lal had a twitching eyebrow and the only normal one was Colonello who had laid down with the back of his head on Lal's thigh.

"Am I intruding?" He said simply before coming in and setting his things down.

"No, what happened?" Reborn asked moving over for Tsuna to take a seat beside him.

"Bianchi is in town. She attempted to take out Ieyasu."

Lal looked over at him seriously before suddenly looking away as if she kept in whatever she was going to say. Tsuna didn't like that at all. Whatever they had been talking about obviously involved him. There was that and the fact Lal never kept in what she wanted to say.

"She is? Probably followed me." Reborn said with a slight frown. Tsuna didn't answer but took a deep breath before telling them what he had been thinking the night before.

"I want to go back to Italy. I'm worried about Lambo and how he left things. There's also someone else I want to see." He braced himself for the outraged cry Lal was going to give him but was surprised to find out she had been silent.

"I'm going to have to deny that Tsuna. I need you to stay by Ieyasu. We need a few more members in the family before you can leave. I got a call from the ninth a few hours before."

And that was all that needed to be said before Reborn explained a problem currently happening in Vongola.

Gokudera let a fake smile fall on his face as Ieyasu dragged Takeshi away leaving him in the presence of Caelum Giglio Nero. It wasn't that he didn't like Caelum, but after hearing the thousands of stories concerning the assassin life he had, he was nervous.

Caelum had been described as the youngest assassin trained by the worlds best. His work was quiet and silent and never left a trace. He was a freelance hitman who took jobs with the famous Arcobaleno group. Gokudera had been confused when he first met Reborn. Reborn was the worlds greatest hitman, surpassing even the famous Caelum. But he was described as nothing more then a baby.

Seeing a teenager hitman had been a surprise. Caelum had stood beside the worlds greatest hitman without a trace of fear. Gokudera might be friends with their student but that didn't mean he was friends with them. Assassin work was done alone and he knew better then anyone it was nasty sorry work.

When Gokudera was eight, Caelum had already reached the list of famous assassins. When Gokudera was playing at recitals enjoying his peaceful life, Caelum was out killing people and taking on the underground world of the mafia.

That was what made Gokudera a little nervous.

How could this small teenager become friends with anyone when all he knew was to kill people?

Something tugged his sleeve making him jump as he saw Caelum was dragging him down the market street to an arcade. Caelum didn't look up, he merely continued to use his cellphone like his life depended on it. Gokudera swallowed his nervousness, he didn't want the great Caelum to sense his fear.

Once inside Gokudera didn't miss the annoyed look the owner of the place gave Caelum as the hooded assassin took them to a machine in the back. It was a fighting game and Caelum had smirked at him holding out a coin for him to take.

The silver haired bomber stuttered in surprise.

Caelum wanted to play video games?

He brushed his confusion aside as he took the coin and joined in on Caelum playing the game. After being demolished five times and managing to wipe the hooded boy 6 times they moved onto another game. Caelum was pretty adept in gaming, proven the many times he managed to kill Gokudera.

It was during those arcade games that Gokudera felt relaxed actually enjoying himself. Eventually they completed their gaming and Caelum held an armful of tickets. The assassin made a motion with his head and Gokudera followed a smile on his face.

"I don't believe the prizes they have here! No dynamite! Dynamite would be perfect! Ah, do you think they have something Decimo would like?" Gokudera exclaimed while looking over the different items. Caelum put a finger on his chin while looking over the rack and finally pointing at a necklace with the silver charm of a clam.

It was a perfect reference to Vongola. While purchasing it Caelum stared at a few charms before resting his eyes on a set of jewelry before purchasing them. While Gokudera smiled at the necklace Caelum tapped him on the shoulder handing him a ring.

The ring was painted a red color and had a blue gem inside with the symbol of a cat engraved inside. Gokudera looked at him mystified until Caelum smiled twirling another pair of rings in his fingers.

He turned ready to leave until Gokudera stopped him with a quick flurry of words, "Caelum! How can you be nice after working in the underworld?!"

The boy froze not turning to face him. He finally turned a smile lighting up his face before showing him his cellphone: the exact same way you can smile and remain loyal to Ieyasu.

He wouldn't ever understand why a boy like Caelum remained in the underworlds surrounded by bodies when he was so nice to others. Caelum had the strangest ability to say the right things even if he never really talked.

It was the same way Ieyasu was to others.

Gokudera had submitted to Ieyasu after the blonde saved his life. The strength Ieyasu showed wasn't cruel or scary. Ieyasu showed the calm reflection of a boss that Gokudera had been searching for all his life. But Gokudera had seen more when Caelum stood beside him.

Caelum was his silent support who corrected Ieyasu's tiny mistakes and changed Ieyasu into an easy going boss. Caelum and Ieyasu had a bond that Gokudera knew couldn't be severed. If Caelum wanted to, he could take Gokudera's spot of right hand man. But Gokudera rejected that idea.

After spending this time with the quiet boy he realized he was so much more. Caelum deserved a spot beside Ieyasu and only then would Gokudera be happy. He would submit under them both and remain loyal his entire life. Gokudera took one final glance at Caelum before breaking into a wide grin.

"If that's so, I got an idea!"

Tsuna fidgeted under Reborn's gaze as the black haired man stalked closer to inspect the new accessory around his neck.

"A clam? Why did he give you a clam?" The hitman reached for the tiny charm before turning it around in his fingers.

"He gave it to match the one he gave Ieyasu. I told him no but he wouldn't listen."

Reborn snorted before releasing the charm and walking to the table in Tsuna's room. "Figures he wouldn't listen, once they get past your scary look they walk all over you."

Tsuna frowned at that before joining him. "What did you need me for anyways? Usually we stay and watch Lal tutor Ieyasu."

They both grinned at the thought of Lal chasing Ieyasu around with a machine gun. "I need your output on the remaining people from the files. Did you collect the items I asked for?"

Tsuna rolled his eyes and pointed to the growing pile of weird items. "The only ones I couldn't get were the gun, gloves, horns, and bandages."

Reborn frowned at him, "there's a lot missing. I thought the directions were simple enough."

Tsuna scoffed at that before picking up the file on the desk. "Don't start complaining, these ancient artifacts are hard to get ahold of. Especially when the family doesn't want to give it up. Plus the last one is down in Italy. I'll have to make a visit after that stuff blows over."

He pulled out three files before pointing to the picture of an old gun on display at a museum of sorts. "This, is going to be an ass to get. Want to tell me why you want these things so bad?"

"Don't worry about it. Just get the job done, Tsuna... I'm missing one position. I know you connect more with the solitary type, know any good illusionists?" The hitman said while stealing the file about the horns.

"Stop your teasing." Tsuna couldn't stop the smile that slipped on his lips, "illusionists are hard to come by. The only one I can think of is... Well its best to not bring him close to Ieyasu or Namimori period."

Tsuna grimaced while remembering a certain illusionist from his past. He shuddered slightly before looking at Reborn. The hitman was focused on the document completely and Tsuna knew the only one who would something wrong with him had to have known him for years.

Tsuna qualified as that person.

Reborn was worried, a feeling Tsuna understood. If it hadn't been for his orders, reborn would have stormed out taking the first flight back to Italy.

"Reborn, you know stressing over it won't solve anything. You need to put your trust in the vongola." Reborn didn't acknowledge him but Tsuna knew the hitman understood. Tsuna peeked at his cellphone with a frown.

Reborn was good friends with the ninth boss of Vongola and after receiving the information that an uprising was occurring made him nervous.

As of last night, Vongola was attacked by the Varia in the argument between who was going to become Vongola Decimo. Before he could think more on it, his phone buzzed with an incoming message.

He picked it up and immediately cursed: Hey Caelum, don't want to bother you and all, but Lal and Colonello left and some crazy lady with pink hair is trying to kill me. You know, so if its not to much trouble I'd appreciate some help.

Reborn loaded his gun as Tsuna hurried to the doorstep of the Sawada household and kicked the door open. Without hesitation the hitman fired bullets off to the bowl the lady was holding as she whirled around in shock. Bianchi's green eyes widened as she took him in.

"Chaos Bianchi."

"Oh, Reborn!"

The pink haired woman ran to Reborn before throwing her arms around him cuddling into him like a cat. He frowned in annoyance. It seemed the hit woman hadn't gotten over her little crush yet. Tsuna shook his head in amusement before helping Ieyasu up.

The blonde was currently in shock a few burns on his shoulder reborn could hear Nana cooking in the kitchen and Lambo and Takuto playing outside.

"My love, I've come to take you back home! This peaceful life doesn't suit you." Reborn pried the girl off him before putting his gun away safely into his coat.

"I can't. I have to help raise Ieyasu."

Bianchi gave him a pout refusing to be removed from his arm. "But if Ieyasu is dead, you can return to Italy right?"

Reborn nearly groaned at that. At least it would help Ieyasu in defending against assassination attempts.

"Yes, that is true." He said as her eyes shinned in a glitter of hope. He was about to mention this to Ieyasu when she caught sign of Tsuna currently patching up the blondes wounds as Ieyasu talked to him in hushed whispers.

"You have been blotching my plans all day, little boy. Unless you don't want to die, I suggest you desperate from vongola Decimo."

Tsuna paused before looking at the girl and smiling. She bristled at that before Reborn introduced them.

"Bianchi, that's my student Caelum. I'm sure you remember him."

Bianchi analyzed the boy before flinging herself to him and wrapping her arms around him pushing him t her chest. "Caelum! I barely recognized you! I've missed you!"

Tsuna was waving his arms around in embarrassment as Reborn coughed into his hand to hide his laugh. Tsuna always had the unfortunate luck with woman and hugs. Tsuna was such a child when he was embarrassed. Bianchi brought him back to stare at the reddening face of the young assassin. She brushed away his bangs letting the wide brown eyes come into view.

"So adorable!" She squealed again before smothering him into another hug. It took a good few minutes before she separated Tsuna from her chest. When she did, she left he arms around his neck as she faced Ieyasu and Reborn again. Reborn took this as his chance to suggests few things.

"Ieyasu, this is Bianchi, the poison scorpion a freelance assassin. We have worked a few jobs with her. Her famous method of killing is her poison cooking. Which is why I want her to teach you poison cooking."

Bianchi looked appalled for a moment before Ieyasu stood up a frown on his face. He was gripping the railing as if to hold him up.

"Reborn, I don't think she likes that idea. And don't I have enough tutors? At this rate I won't make it to be 16."

He had a point, but tutoring Ieyasu was becoming a bit of a tedious job. Not that Ieyasu didn't have potential, Ieyasu had the perfect qualities of a boss and was perfect for vongola decimo despite some of his smaller flaws. Tsuna nudged Bianchi's arm and flipped open his cellphone writing something down for her to read.

With that done, reborn knew Bianchi couldn't refuse anymore. "I will become his tutor, because Caelum asked me and for the chance to be with my love."

Yep, definitely not over that crush.

"I don't get it, are you guys dating?" The blonde asked completely clueless as Reborn shook his head and Tsuna brought up four fingers.

"Bianchi is my fourth lover." Bianchi has the decency to blush at that as if flattered. Well, she was fourth in his list. That was definitely worth something. Ieyasu just stared before shaking his head. Reborn caught a quick glimpse at the boy wondering why he wasn't over reacting like he usually would. The boy looked tired and exhausted, his eyes glazed over loosing a glimpse of his usual happiness.

"Ieyasu, go to bed. I will get Bianchi's living arrangements I'm order." The blonde didn't complain which lead reborn to believe he was sick. With a look Tsuna nodded and silently slipped out of Bianchi's arms to follow him.

With a small smirk, the hitman tilted his head to signal the love struck woman to follow him into the kitchen.

Tsuna opened the door to Ieyasu's room to see the blonde had collapsed onto his bed eyes staring at the wall blankly. The room was slightly messier then usual which Tsuna knew had to do with Lal and Colonello being in here for his tutoring. Tsuna took the spot beside his legs watching the blue eyes suddenly land on him.

"Ne, Caelum, I've been having these annoying dreams about a bunch of people I don't know. It started on about Monday." He closed his eyes as if witnessing something he didn't want to see."It makes my head hurt and..."

He stayed silent before pressing the palm of his hands on his eyes. Tsuna reached over to feel his forehead, he was met with a burning fever.

He winced ready to get up when Ieyasu let out a small whimper. "Caelum, they also made those dreams come back. I don't want to remember those dreams. They make my heart hurt because I couldn't save him. I never wanted to see him leave. It hurts..."

Tsuna felt a tug at his heart before he leaned over the blonde and rested his hand on the burning forehead.

"Caelum, he was the one I was supposed to protect. But I couldn't. He'd never forgive me... W-Would you forgive me?... If I couldn't protect you?"

Tsuna paused before he caught sight of those blue eyes shinning with an obvious fever and pain. He lifted his hood, carefully revealing his eyes as he gave a small smile.

"Yes Ieyasu, I would forgive you."

That came from the bottom of his heart. Ieyasu had worked his way into Tsuna's heart and sat himself down refusing to leave. He was right beside Reborn and both of the stubborn men decided they weren't going to let Tsuna free. Since meeting the blonde his life changed and he met someone who accepted him and brought out a side of him he only showed to the Arcobaleno.

He couldn't stay mad Ieyasu and no matter how dense he seemed the blonde had a smile that shinned brightly bringing in people around him. Ieyasu looked at him calmly before smiling and closing his eyes.

Ieyasu was a sky that enveloped all.

Tsuna had been lucky enough to be able to fly closest to him.

While leaving the room to tell Reborn he failed to hear Ieyasu softly say, "Tsuna..."

A/N: so Tsuna speaks:) yay! But that doesn't mean he will continue to do it, only because Ieyasu's delirious from his fever:o hope you guys enjoyed it here's the reviews!
