A/N: Well here is another chapter! I still trying to figure out how to see how to lay out each chapter so it would not be confusing. Anyways some reviewers actually began to guess who is who on the prologue and like the story. Yay! Enough of my rambling to the Disclaimer and on to the story.
Disclaimer: Nope I don't own KHR.
Chapter 2
Namimori, Japan
"O-kay..." Reborn stood before the Sawada house or more like burned down ashes of a house. He mentally sighed since he is the numero uno hitman in the world, and his pride would not let him show such emotions, outwardly. Though still feel annoyed he kept walking until he arrived to ask (note: threaten) the vendor for espresso from a nearby cafe shop.
He sat on a wall near an empty street and ponder what is he going to do next. So peaceful...he thought feeling like an old man in a summer day. He froze at that thought, I am not old!
Soon it became midday and sense someone walking near him. Normally he would ignore it, but that someone stopped below him. The person or as Reborn notice the a familiar spiking soft brown hair boy, mumbled, "...orange pacifier...Yuni...?" At this Reborn tensed and looked closer at the boy deep brown eyes, too old for a five year old that at the moment has a far off look, saying the name of his sky Arcobaleno boss. "Hey kid!" trying not to sound like a hypocrite, he went on with a harsh tone, "what do you know of an orange pacifier?"
The boy blinked a couple of times and focused to Reborn bottomless black eyes that hint a dark emotion. The little boy seemed to want to step back, but did not move nor look away. Internally Reborn was impressed, but he cocked his gun (after Leon transformed into one). "What do you know about the orange pacifier."
"...I don't know," he answered confused.
Tsu-kun was carrying a bag of groceries that his mother told him to buy after somehow convincing her to let him go. She was very hesitant ever since last night when they were at the TakeSushi restaurant they saw news of a house burned down, which in fact it was theirs. Yamamoto-san the owner of the restaurant offered them to stay with him until they find somewhere to stay, since the second floor is the resident area. After all he is lonely ever since his son left for a out-of-the-country scholarship and wouldn't mind the company.
Anyways, Tsu-kun bought some necessities and notice a baby in a suit drinking something. As he notice a yellow pacifier around his neck, Tsu-kun had a memory;
A young girl at 10 years old cried out, "Tsuna!" she giggled. She offered her hand to him and another boy whose name she cry out but he
couldn't catch.
"...friends forever!" The trio said simultaneously and laughed freely, a laugh he thought he never feel. He notice the girl had an orange
pacifier around her neck when it glowed, which made the girl gasp.
"Yuni!"
The memory was interrupted by a harsh voice, disoriented he notice someone fierce and wanted to runways, but he had a feeling he shouldn't.
"What do you know about the orange pacifier," ignoring the fact a baby was speaking a rather fluent Japanese, he tried to make sense at the vivid memory, that confused his self identity, "I don't know."
There was an awkward silence. Feeling fidgety Tsu-kun blurted out, "You have somewhere to stay?" He notice the baby was surprised or he had a feeling since the baby was blank faced so it was hard to tell. Then again his feelings were never wrong. Tsu-kun remember something, "Ah, Tsu-kun forgot to introduce himself, Sawada Tsunayoshi, but you can call Tsu-kun, well Tsu-kun," he giggled.
"Sawada eh, well my name is Reborn and no honorifics, where I came from there is no need." he said in such finality than Tsu-kun could not argue back. "By the way is it dangerous to talk to strangers?"
"Tsu-kun knows that," Reborn snorted in response to that, "hmph, is just Tsu-kun had a feeling that though Reborn is dangerous, Reborn can be trusted." By now Reborn had gun transformed into a chameleon in multicolor transformation, but before Tsu-kun gasped at such feat someone spoke behind him.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't Dame-Tsuna," some older kids that for Tsu-kun's despair from Namimori middle school (he is wondering why most of his bullies from there even though he thought for sure he never went there...did he?). Panicking he felt Reborn jumped down next to him, and without thinking and surprising Reborn, he and the baby as well as the groceries took off running like no tomorrow to TakeSushi.
Vongola Mansion, Italy
"Shame the infant was on of the few things that made this place...bearable, kufufufu," smirked Mukuro Rokudo, the mist guardian, as he played with his mist flames waving around his trident. This made some of the other guardians uneasy.
"Hn. Hate to say this, but I agree," Kyoya Hibari, the cloud guardian, who stand next to a wall far from the crowd herbivore guardians. For him to stay was a matter of pride, which is to leave is to admit he followed a weak herbivore such as "his boss."
"Maa, maa," Takeshi Yamamoto the rain guardian, with a forced smile that only didn't full Reborn or the other guardians, "just give it time, maybe he'll regret his decision."
"Key word here you baseball fanatic, maybe," Hayato Gokudera the storm guardian and self-proclaim right-hand man responded in controlled rage.
"We must have some EXTREME faith that Yamamoto right," Ryohei Sasagawa, the sun guardian loud boxer who strangely spoke softer with each word as if doubting what he just said.
Once more they were silent as they walked to the Vongola main dinning hall. When they arrived, they release their breathe they did not realize they were holding as they did not see their boss.
"Good morning!" A young teenage girl only a year younger than the guardians came to visit them at the dining hall. Only she was greeted with heated glares.
"Ah..." she sweatdropped.
"Why did you bring us," the Vongola Guardians asked the sky arcobaleno.
"Because you'll need your sky as he needs his weathers."
"But he's cruel!"
"You're true sky will reveal himself in 'time,'" she vaguely explained. After that no one spoke as they ate. Hibari left the dining hall after quickly finishing his food, leaving behind an air of annoyance.
"Hey Mukuro!" the sun guardian yelled, "how's your EXREME cousin and her EXTREME friends?"
The mist guardian faltered for a split second, but smirked, "How should I know?"
"Well she is your cousin," began the rain guardian, but Mukuro interrupted, "SHUT UP!" With that the mist guardian disappear within a sudden mist without his signature laugh.
"...heartless turf-top," muttered the storm guardian.
"You said something octopus head?!" responded the sun guardian, or more like shouted.
"What was that?!" releasing tension the two fighting guardians took out their weapons as the rain guardian tried to play peacekeeper only to make it worse and almost blowing up the dining room, again.
Yuni just sat there with her thoughts as she duck any food missiles at her way. "Five years, huh..." she muttered.
Somewhere in a scientist lab
"You're sure they don't want the girl?" a white lab coat man asked his colleague.
"Yeah, she was in an accident, but her parents careless what becomes of her."
In between them was a young girl with a breathing mask barely holding a shred of consciousness in the mist of damaged organs and no painkillers.
"What about the other two weird ones?"
"Huh? Oh them, mmmh, found them with the girl, do whatever you want with them," muttered a scientist without looking away his clipboard. Some of the other scientist cheered to have something to experiment with.
"Oh here's an interesting fact, she is related to Mukuro Rokudo," the clipboard scientist said as a afterthought.
"Well, well, now I can avenge my heroes, the Estraneo," there was a crazy laughter echoing throughout the labs. The young girl whimpered weakly and two distant snarls were barely heard.
A/N: Here and finish till next week hopefully! Review if you do want character files and some story of how each guardian came to Italy. If I do it will be a guardian at a time at the end of the chapter. Thanks for reading! *90-degree bows*
