The Flames of Youth

~FLASHBACK~

Tsuna had always been an adventurous child and at the tender age of ten years old that adventurous spirit refused to be stifled by the cheerful threats that had been imparted upon him from mother (Sawada Nana) to son when Iemitsu (having long since lost the title of father) had left the confines of the house he had finally decided to visit, to escort the boss of his 'company' to the home of the Sawadas. As such it was hardly surprising to find that by the time of the arrival of Iemitsu's boss, accompanied by a vanguard of what Tsuna's eyes identified to be numerous people in penguin suits, he had comfortably situated himself at the top of the young pine tree parallel to the window of his bedroom that easily reached the height of the house.

Satisfied that he had accounted for all members of the vanguard closing in on his door Tsuna rose from his perch intent on investigating the rather suspicious company that sent Iemitsu to Antarctica to mine for oil, only to find that the branch he had decided to rest his weight on was not as strong as he had first thought when he had settled on where to await the arrival of Iemitsu's guest.

"AHHHHHH" was the unwilling scream that erupted from the falling child as the ground approached at a rapid pace.

All of a sudden it was over, and Tsuna was gently being lowered to the ground by the mysterious force that had always aided Tsuna in times of trouble.

"FUCK" Tsuna cursed under his breath as he attracted the attention of all of the men in penguin suits from whatever they had been previously been doing.

An old man with white hair, a neatly trimmed mustache and smiling eyes, wearing a purple floral patterned shirt accompanied by Iemitsu whose face was contorted by concern for his only child, rushed over to where Tsuna had collapsed in the shade of the tree he fell from.

"TUNAFISH!" Iemitsu shreiked as tears streamed down his face

"Iemitsu" The old man with the friendly face, scolded his voice low

"Right, sorry" Iemitsu replied, his voice noticeably calmer

"Timoto? Is he alright?"

"Yes he's is just suffering from exhaustion, his body isn't used to releasing flames"

From his spot on the ground Tsuna was busy trying to figure out what the man Iemitsu had referred to as Timoto ment by flames. Was he refering to the mysterious power that Tsuna had been feeling since he was five years old? Tsuna allowed one eye to open, just a crack trying to pick up anything that he couldn't figure out from sound alone. Tsuna slammed his eye closed again as Timoto crouched down, to get a better look at Tsuna.

"Why don't you go lie him down in his room and I can... tend to him"

"Are you going to seal his flames?" Iemitsu asked his face unusually solemn

"I don't think we have a choice" the old man paused for a moment "If we leave them unsealed one day things might get out of hand before he is ready to learn"

"Do what you have to"

~FLASHBACK OVER~

Over the course of his existence Tsunayoshi had gotten used to the to the cheap, thin mattress that had been his bed since he was old enough to safely sleep on one. So the soft mattress he was lying on was the first thing that captured his attention as his eyes struggled open. He blinked the sleep out of his eyes and slowly became aware of the lack of noise, and the strangely calming affect the sent of cherry blossoms was having him... Cherry Blossoms!? In summer?

As Tsuna was puzzling over his surroundings the 'kind' soul that had helped him was secluding himself in a soundproof room working out his frustrations with a training dummy when he suddenly became aware of a prickling feeling at the edge of his senses that he associated with the troublesome herbivore currently residing in the safest room in this entire house. His Bedroom. Unwilling Hibari Kyoya felt the worry that had had come to life as he watched his helpless herbivore fall from the roof of Namimori Middle stirring as he dropped his tonfa's back in their holsters and rushed to where he had left his herbivore.

_LINEBREAK_

Just as Tsuna was feeling confident enough to try and stand up, the thick wooden door that he had previously taken brief note of was violently shoved open to reveal a scowling Skylark.

"Herbivore" Hibari growled dangerously "What do you think you're doing?"

Tsuna froze in fear.

"Standing Skylark-san" Tsuna replied in a calm voice despite the fact that he was fearing for his life

"Why?"

"So I can get out of your hair"

"And who told you that you could leave?"

"Eto... Kami-sama?"

"Gods has no word in this house" As he said that Hibari's features relaxed into a self-satisfied smirk

"Well anyway I'll just leave if you could perhaps clear the doorway"

"No"

"Why not?" Tsuna demanded, irritated by the Skylarks point blank refusal

"Because."

"Because, why?"

"Herbivore" the glower was back

"Stupid Skylark" Tsuna shot right back already at the edge of this limited patience

"What was that Herbivore?" Hibari questioned, his eyes glowing a demonic purple colour

"What are you deaf? I called you a Stupid! Skylark!" Tsuna spit out, fire burning in his eyes

"Herbivore. I'll bite you to death!"

"Go ahead and try"

"STOP YOU IMMATURE CHILDREN" a voice reverberated throughout the room

"What did you say" Tsuna and Hibari shouted in anger, too mad to even attempt to figure out where the voice was coming from.

"I said to STOP YOU IMMATURE CHILDREN"

"We can't have you fighting each other with there are bigger fish to fry" This time the voice was different, deeper, more arrogant.

"Fish? What does fish have to do with this?" Tsuna asked, a little lost

"It's a metaphor Little Vongola"

"Little Clam? Is that your way of saying you want to eat me?" Tsuna demanded in confusion

At this Hibari's guard went up even higher, the Herbivore was his and no arrogant herbivore was going to take what was his.

"I'll bite you to death if you even consider laying on slimy finger on my herbivore"

"I am not your herbivore!"

"Be at ease little birdie, I am not conspiring to hurt the Little Vongola"

"I'll bite you to death"

"All of you settle down"

"Ha, looks like the children like being scolded"

"That includes you Alaude"

"Tch"

"Ano now that we've sorted that out why don't I just be on my way and we can all put this behind us"

"NO!" For once it seemed that the majority was in agreement about something

"Do you think to forget your resolve Little Vongola"

"My resolve?"

"Yes Little Vongola, your resolve"

"Alaude" The other voice growled out a warning

"Giotto" The voice that had been revealed as Alaude growled back, unwilling to back down.

"Shut it" Giotto commanded

"...Yes boss" Alaude's reluctance was obvious but he backed down

"Now Tsunayoshi I do believe I owe you a hint"

Tsunayoshi scoured his memories, trying to remember what Giotto was talking about.

"Oh. Yes you have yet to pay your due"

"I will offer you three words, do with them what you must." "Vongola, Heir, Guardians."

"Wait what do you mean? How does that help? How is that even a clue?" Tsuna shouted in exasperation but there was no reply.

"Herbivore explain."

Tsuna closed his eyes tiredly and sighed.

"It's a long story"

The Skylarks eyes narrowed.

"...And it started roughly two years ago."
