Chapter 13

It was getting late as Naruto stands before Tsunade and the rest of the Senju Famiglia that came with her holding a crying Konohamaru in his arms while his father Colonnello watched from the side with a camera taking dozens of pictures. "Naru onii-chaaan!"

"Come on Maru-kun you have to let me go now." Naruto told him with a small smile trying to get Konohamaru to let him go.

"No I wanna be with Naru onii-chan you can't make me leave!" Konohamaru yelled crying harder when Shizune tried helping Naruto pry his little arms that only tightened their grip harder.

"Don't say silly things like that Konohamaru, you'll get to see him later when you video chat next month." Shizune tried placating the future boss in training.

"No I wanna stay with him!" It nearly broke Naruto's heart seeing him crying even harder when Shizune finally separated them and started walking towards the helicopter waiting nearby.

"Sorry about that brat." Tsunade spoke up walking up to stand beside the pair of them with a pensive look on her face. "Take this and read it some time soon Naruto." She slips a flash drive into his shirt pocket before walking away seeing it was time to go. Tsunade wanted to stay a little longer but after her talk with Reborn on the cruise ship things were just a little to tense right now for them.

Naruto watched Konohamaru still crying but waving at him as the helicopter lifted off the ground ignoring the feeling when his father jumped on top of his head. "He's a good kid kora. A little bit of a crybaby but a good kid." Though he was trying to lighten the mood both of them were curious about what was on the flash drive.

"I know and if he's anything like his grandfather the Senju are in good hands when little Maru-kun grows up." Naruto replied with a sad smile watching the helicopter for a few more minutes before heading back to the room he was sharing with Tsuna.

They walked in silence back to their floor where Vongola was staying and Naruto had just opened the door to his room when he heard Tsuna arguing with somebody. "So what if I am gay how is that any of your business!?" Tsuna was almost in tears but held them back facing away from the door as he held the cellphone up to his ear.

Naruto made to walk over to snatch the cellphone from his hands and find out who was upsetting Tsuna when he saw Reborn shaking his head no. "I don't care what you or anyone else expects of me!" He stood up off the bed his eyes flashing orange. "I'm the only candidate they have left to be the next damn Vongola Decimo or is that just another thing of a long list of screw-ups that the CEDEF dropped the ball on when I get forced into being a mafia boss without any say in the matter! I never asked for anything like this to happen!"

Naruto watched on as Tsuna who didn't seem to notice them yet just got even more angry with each passing second talking to whoever was on the other end of the phone. "Yea I know everything about you, your job as the current boss of the CEDEF, and I especially know about my replacement Basil. I'm just waiting for the day my Guardians bring me photos of you and another woman to finally have proof you don't give a damn about me or Mama!"

Naruto just growled under his breath finally figuring out it was Iemitsu on the phone and that Tsuna had lost his patience with the man after everything Kyoya gathered on him over the last two years. "I don't care!" Tsuna cut off whatever the man was about to say next. "You have one month, six-hundred seventy-two hours, forty three-thousand eight hundred and forty-eight minutes however long you want to look at it to tell Mama the truth about what you really do before I tell her for you!" He was finally calming down now and as the blazing orange in his eyes faded Naruto saw the tear rolling down Tsuna's cheek that he quickly wiped away.

"You don't get to vanish for my entire childhood after sealing my flames and play father over the phone Iemitsu and if you ever threaten anyone I care about ever again I'll bring Vongola crashing down around your head." Tsuna threw his phone across the room before falling back onto the bed holding his face in his hands. Naruto was already moving across the room when Reborn grabbed Colonnello dragging him towards the door.

"That's why I tried talking him out of writing to Nono about some of the subjects he wanted information on." Reborn whispered watching as Naruto wrapped his arms around Tsuna pulling him closer. "I knew Iemitsu would react this way after he read his copy of the papers Tsuna sent." Colonnello just nodded slightly closing the door behind them with one thought on his mind. 'If Naruto's anything like his mother I almost feel sorry when they run into Iemitsu.'

Back in the room moments after the pair left Tsuna came out of the bathroom after a quick shower wearing one of one of Naruto's shirts and his boxers to find his boyfriend wearing nothing but his pajama pants laying on their bed. His head bobbed up and down slightly listening to whatever music that was playing on his ear buds and Tsuna being completely drained from his father's unexpected phone call got on the bed with a small blush crawling on top of Naruto who just wrapped his arms around him in a comforting hug.

"Are you okay?" Naruto's voice was barely a whisper as Tsuna placed one of the ear buds in his right ear changing the song currently playing to something random on the list of songs.

"No but thanks for asking again." Tsuna told him burying his face into Naruto's neck when Right Here by Ashes Remain started playing in their ears. Tsuna pressed their cheeks together trying to hide his tears while every single word his father said burned at the back of his thoughts. The scent of rain water and pocky invading his nose when Naruto lifted his head slightly wiping away his tears.

"Me and Kyoya can always kill the bastard later if he starts making trouble for you." Naruto gave him a tender kiss on the lips after saying that getting Tsuna to just nod before laying his head back down getting comfortable. "I think Hayato has enough dynamite to get him when he rents a car or gets on a plane to travel somewhere."

"M'fine, just lets forget about him for now. Just let me stay like this for a little longer." Tsuna mumbles feeling Naruto running a hand through his hair. 'We can always kill him later though and I already want his head after everything he's done to you.' Naruto thought holding back his anger feeling Tsuna's grip on him tighten. People like Iemitsu and the students at school didn't deserve to know the sweet and understanding brunette he held in his arms protectively willing to stain his hands with even more blood if only to see that kind smile of his never fade away. "Please just a little longer." Tsuna mumbles slowly falling asleep the tears from before dried up feeling safe in Naruto's arms leaving him able to forget about the world around him.

"Juudaime! Juudaime! Where are you!?" Hayato shouted out running outside looking around the pool for any sign of Tsuna. "Yo tomato bastard show yourself Juudaime is missing!" He yelled out again only to pale slightly feeling like he was inches away from death.

"Shut up." Kyoya growled out sounding annoyed. Slowly almost mechanically he turned around to see Tsuna's Cloud Guardian seating under a shaded chair near the pool wearing nothing but his gakuran and purple colored swim trunks. "Shut up ~! Shut up ~!" The small yellow bird resting on the table near the laptop Kyoya was looking at mimicked getting the prefect to smirk slightly. "The omnivore's father called last night so the carnivore kidnapped him for the day." That was all Kyoya said before going back to reading the flash drive the carnivore slipped him before leaving on a dirt-bike. Normally he'd try to start a fight against the carnivore but the second he saw the state their little omnivore was in Kyoya stepped aside no matter how much it might he wanted to stop them.

The sound of someone running could be heard drawings his attention away from the laptop once more seeing a blur run past the white-haired herbivore. "Pool party!" The loud cheerful shout came from the baseball herbivore seconds before he jumped into the pool followed by some of the younger herbivores that came with them. Glancing around he caught sight of the three baby carnivores on the table furthest from them talking in hushed whispers and over near the shallow end of the pool he saw the omnivore's mother trying to calm down the crying cow herbivore. Looking closer he saw she looked a little like the omnivore did this morning but instead of dried tears turned into anger she had a slight edge about her meaning the herbivore tried calling her cellphone afterwards and it didn't end up anywhere near like how he most have thought it would end.

'Good I'd be disappointed if she didn't have the same will as the omnivore did.' Kyoya thought watching the way she hid the worry behind a fake smile.

"Come on Hibari quit looking at your laptop and get in the water!" Takeshi called out with his normal cheery grin waving at the prefect from hell. Kyoya looked his way noticing the way his hair was more of a mess than usual thanks to the water and the way his light blue colored swim trunks stuck to every inch of his body only to tsk slightly before going back to reading through the files. That didn't stop Takeshi when he got out of the water running over to get the prefect in the water with them. "C'mon on Hibari please, please, please come swimming with us. C'mon don't be stubborn and just take a quick dip in the pool" Takeshi begged missing the way Kyoya's eyebrow twitched dangerously. Kyoya closed the laptop with an annoyed growl looking up at Takeshi who just smiled tilting his head to one side like a wet puppy. "Well are you going to take a swim in the pool with me?" Takeshi kept on smiling waiting for an answer as Kyoya got up from his seat unaware of the thoughts running through the prefect's mind.

Hours later and their was still no sign of the two runaways until a smirking Reborn called all of them telling the Vongola group to meet near the front of the hotel. "It looks like Baka-Tsuna got into some of the hotels wine thinking it was grape juice." 'Not that I blame him either way for wanting a drink after last night's argument.' Reborn thought ignoring the groups loud talks about finding Tsuna before anything bad could happen to him.

"They're fine that was just Baka-fox checking in with us." Obito told them chuckling under his breath. "The three of us just decided to make finding Tsuna into a little game of hide and seek that the whoever finds them first will love the prize they win."

"More like you two just decided to mess with my son and I get dragged along for the ride kora." Colonnello muttered under his breath with a dark look in his eyes waiting to see what game from hell the two of them thought up.

"What's the prize for winning?" Fuuta asked them with an excited look in his eyes always wanting to play hide and seek.

"The winner gets any one wish that is within my power granted." Reborn told them with his smirk growing seeing it sparked the interest of a few people listening in on them. "But you need to hear the rules first. Rule one Naruto already knows your coming and will do everything in his power short of using his flames to stop you. Rule two you need to successfully retrieve Tsuna from Naruto and get him back to his room before midnight. Rule three Naruto will be trying to sneak them back to their room while you're hunting him so anyone searching has a limited time to find them and your time starts now." Firing his gun into the air Reborn and Obito shared a matching smirk watching everyone scrambling for the doors hurrying to find the pair before Naruto could sneak Tsuna into their hotel room.

"You know if Naruto gets through the night he'll ask for something crazy just to get back at you." Obito told him almost in tears from laughing as he remembered the sound of Naruto's angry yelling when Reborn informed him about their little game.

The first couple of people checked near the beach finding the dirt-bike Naruto rented for the day and a few people walking around. "Feliciano stay close to me your still sick." Glancing over they saw a teen with sleek blond hair wearing a green Wehrmacht supporting a shorter teen with short brown hair wearing an old-looking military uniform.

"Sorry doitsu. I'm just so dizzy." The shorter teen mumbled into the blonde's side looking ready to drop the second he was let go. They walked right by the pair trying to find Naruto and Tsuna missing the shorter teen looking away with a flushed look when he was held closer or the small smirk the taller blond had when they passed them without even a second glance.

Thirty minutes later we can find Hayato along with a few other people who followed him checking the local restaurants for any sign of Tsuna only to get the same message as last time that nobody fitting either description came in today. Leaving the restaurant with death threats clenching the dynamite in his hands Hayato walked right past a blond with short hair and an ahoge sticking up slightly sitting on a nearby bench eating a burger. Leaning against the taller blondes side was another shorter blond with wavy hair holding a stuffed white polar bear in his lap looking at everything around them through his brand new glasses. Walking away nobody noticed Hibird peeking out from the shorter blonds hair for a split second before ducking back down.

Takeshi walked past the rollercoaster with a smile on his face looking everywhere he could think of for any sign of Naruto or Tsuna. "It's been almost two hours and nobody's found them yet." Takeshi whistled slightly under his breath figuring Naruto must be pretty good at hiding if there hasn't been a single sighting of the pair yet. Hearing somebody humming Mawaru Chikyuu Rondo he looked around in the crowd spotting a teen with brown hair wearing a matador's uniform walking by with his eyes closed and riding on his back was a shorter teen with brown hair wearing a khaki colored uniform red faced at being carried down the street.

"Did you need some help?" Takeshi asked seeing the matador holding a duffle bag filled with prizes and other things from the booths around the area. The matador just shakes his head slightly 'no' never once opening his eyes or stopping his humming as he kept walking.

Hours passed and it was starting to get dark out so most of the people playing Reborn's little game decided to wait in hiding near entrance of the hotel. "This is just rigged against them now isn't it. There's no way Naruto could get inside without somebody seeing them." Obito said out loud spotting quite a few people waiting to catch his student unprepared.

To bad for everyone waiting the pair of runaways didn't have any plans about heading back to the hotel anytime soon after Tsuna found a bar on the island that hosted an open mic night for customers. "Are you sure you want to try singing Tsuna?" Naruto having changed into his other disguise looking like Alfred F. Jones from the Hetalia anime asked while getting everything ready for Tsuna. They've been hiding from everyone all day long using every disguise Itachi would lend them from anime characters to Tsuna in a bunny costume and everything in-between.

"Yep Naruto I'm sure." A somewhat okay Tsuna looking like a smaller version of Matthew Williams without the wig replied as he went through the list of songs while waiting for their turn on stage. 'I Fooled You, no. I Will Show You, nope. Impossible, maybe. CARNIVORE, that song just might make Kyoya smile.' Tsuna thought about to give up and let Naruto pick one until his eyes landed on My Name by Shinedown. "I found a song." Tsuna called out getting Naruto and Kyoya's attention as they walked over to see what he picked.

Naruto just choked back his laughter trying to keep a straight face while Kyoya smirked seeing what Tsuna had in mind seconds before they were called to the stage. Walking onto the stage Tsuna ignored everyone he didn't know and focused on his mother in the crowd watching him alongside Itachi and Colonnello who had a table near the back. Taking the mic in his hand Tsuna took a deep breath listening for his cue as Naruto and Kyoya started playing their instruments that the staff helped his Cloud and Moon set up.

"My name is worthless like you told me I once was."

'No son of mine is going to be gay. This had better be some kind of typo or are you still angry at me and rebelling.'

"My name is empty cause you drained away the love."

'I'll get your mother to help me get rid of him if you won't do it yourself.'

"My name is searching since you stole my only soul."

'Vongola can't be seen weak by others and you dating some no name red head would be an embarrassment when you become the next boss. You need to think about the bigger picture here.'

"My name is hatred and the reasons we both now."

'You can't talk to me like that I'm your father and you will respect the things I've done to keep you safe.'

"Worthless, Empty, Searching, Hatred."

'He can't force you to do anything Tsu-kun. This is your life your decisions not his, not Vongola's, not even mine. So whenever you decide what your gonna be, who your gonna be and how your going to do it I'll be behind you every step of the way.' Naruto's voice cut through everything else destroying the doubts lingering in the back of his mind.

"Well who am I right now?"

Tsuna's voice and the emotions behind them caused everyone listening to fall silent as the Sky on stage sang his heart out to the crowd venting slightly to deal with his problems.

"You're fuckin wearing me out!"

"You're always dragging me down!"

"You're the fake, fallen, force of nature, sick mind. I don't need a gun to take back what's mine."

"It's over, It's over now. You're done wearing me out."

"My name is screaming like the sound of your heart failing."

"My name is loco like the motive that betrayed me."

"Screaming, Loco, Don't say you know who I am right now."

"You're fuckin wearing me out!"

"You're always dragging me down!"

"You're the fake, fallen, force of nature, sick mind. I don't need a gun to take back what's mine."

"It's over, It's over now. You're done wearing me out."

"You're wearing me out, you're wearing me out, you're wearing me out, you're wearing me out you're wearing me out, you're wearing me out."

Tsuna's other Guardians that were still searching came in hearing their bosses voice with Reborn riding on Hayato's shoulder after forcing Obito to stay behind with the other people playing his game. Tsuna never saw any of them his eyes closed pouring every moment he was ever picked on growing up, embarrassed in front of the class, beat up at school, and his father's call into every word of the song.

"You'll be ancient history but who I am right now!?"

Reborn stood next to Colonnello with a proud look in his eyes seeing his student on stage like that standing on his own two feet without him forcing it to happen. Looking over at Itachi he saw the Mist recording everything while Nana just looked on watching her son.

"My name is revenge and I'm here to save my name."

"You're fuckin wearing me out!"

"You're always dragging me down!"

"You're the fake, fallen, force of nature, sick mind. I don't need a gun to take back what's mine."

"It's over, It's over, It's over."

"You're the fake, fallen, force of nature, sick mind. I don't need a gun to take back what's mine."

"It's over, It's over now. You're done wearing me out."

Tsuna opened his eyes hearing applause coming from the audience to see his Guardians cheering him. Looking over at the table his mother was at he saw Reborn giving him a pride filled smirk before nodding his head slightly seconds before Naruto pulled him into a bear hug.

"Keep your head up." Naruto told Tsuna smiling. "Because you are the strongest lion that has ever walked the Earth. Never forget that and neither will the mafia as you bare your fangs at their world."

Author's Notes -

Hope you like the chapter. Suggestions are welcome. Hope you enjoyed the song I used it was either going to be that or Waiting for Superman so I flipped a coin.

Does anybody like my Omake or is that just a waste of time on my part thinking up something every even numbered chapter.

Skull will make his appearance in the next chapter but not in anyway you might think.

Like I said in my response to chapter 7 I see Iemitsu as the kind of person to cause something when he finds out his son isn't the fluffy little chibi he left behind he's going to start something.

I have a few people pushing for 18/80 so that might become a side pairing in the future unless something comes up.

The Lemon will happen in the next chapter since I few readers have asked about it. So you have been given your advanced warning.
