Namimori, Japan

Three months and yet it felt like 3 years. Tsu-kun grumbled as he tried to do his 5th no as in only five, but 5th set of hundred push-ups! He is five darn it! All because Reborn was bored and love to turtor- Tsu-kun means tutor (Reborn can read Tsu-kun's mind and he will increase his "Spartan training"). Reborn gave him a scary smirk as Tsu-kun spaced out, "HIIIEEE!" he screeched, "90...91-92-93-94-95-96..."

Everyday at random times Reborn commands Tsu-kun to exercise silly exercise/chore or ridiculous amount of stretches or laps around Namimori in what he calls Vongola-Style run or Vongola-Style Throwing the trash. Tsu-kun wonders is Vongola-Style was just an invented "game" of Reborn not get bored or something.

When Reborn moved in, he proclaim he was sent by Iemitsu to protect them and tutor Tsu-kun as his last wish. This made Nana ecstatic that even when her beloved husband still loves them and protect them, ignoring the fact Reborn is a little toddler who can speak grammatically correct dressed in a suit. (In another note Yamamoto-san looked down at him warily). She was so happy that she insisted him to call her oka-san which in turn he will call her Mamma.

Now that Nana and Yamamoto's cooking combined who were good on their own, caught the interest of competitors and the prize money seemed very appealing for it will help them buy more exotic ingredients to cook more delicious plates. This lead them put Reborn in charge of Tsu-kun and the restaurant, which will be closed until further notice. Something about bonding time, which led to this predicament and new found nickname (or is it?).

"So you are dumb, but not dumb..." Reborn looked at Tsu-kun's quiz which was 27 though some answers were solved by formulas from middle school in an incorrect way, "Dame-Tsu."

"What that suppose to mean?!" Without looking Reborn hit Tsu-kun with a Ten-Ton Leon Hammer.

"Ouchie!" Teary Tsu-kun pouted that Reborn wisely not looked at.

"What do you know, I am really needed, I will turto-tutor you my dear Dame-Tsu," in mock kindness that Tsu-kun frowned, but strangely happy...No one ever helped Tsu-kun, not even Otou-san and Oka-san, Tsu-kun thought. Reborn frowned when he felt deemed to look up and notice that thought pass over the open book face of his student. Dame-Tsu...he shook his head, what am I thinking since when I care about someone else?

"Hurry up Dame-Tsu Mamma and Yamamoto are leaving for the cooking competition and if you don't go down in 5 seconds..." Reborn cocked his gun.

"HIIIEEEEEE!" Tsu-kun changed and ran downstairs to the restaurant tripping on the second last step. When he looked up Tsu-kun saw Reborn drinking his espresso as he read the newspaper as if he was there the whole morning, "Eh?" he thought how in the world did the baby with the gun came faster than him when Tsu-kun was first to leave the room in the speed of light?

"Because I'm the world's greatest hitman," Reborn answering Tsu-kun's thoughts smugly.

"Agh!"


Later that morning after saying their goodbyes, they went on some errands to buy food since the two cooks of the house/restaurant left and now they have to have instant food for a while. Reborn eyed his ward as Tsu-kun yawned for the seventh time.

"Sleeping well?" Reborn asked, but more like as a statement.

"Not sure...been dreaming stuff," Tsu-kun yawned again.

"hm?"

"...normally I dream the usual stuff of me being a big boy," Reborn frowned at this, "its sad sometimes since Tsuna has no friends, anways lately...I seen stuff that makes me sad...and scared, people with white coats giving big sister bad stuff because she's in pain..." Tsu-kun was feeling a growing headache as he went on, "I want to help, but..." he froze and Reborn tense as his partner jumped from his fedora to his hand as a green gun.

"What is wrong?"

"I feel like before I found out my house disappear," Reborn frowned once more when he realize Dame-Tsu has been speaking first person that it made him very uneasy. Before he knew it the little boy took off! Reborn tried to follow, but he felt a strange dread that was similar as that cursed day.. though much crueler...Shaking his head he looked up for his ward, but he was no where in sight.

Keeping his poker face, he inwardly panicked. He thought back the day before how as Nana, the boy's mother slowly and deliberately packed her best knifes within sight of Reborn when she gave him her instructions, "You're in charge Reborn dear, and take good care of my little Tsu-kun," an unspoken or else can be heard making the world's greatest hitman shivered inwardly. Yeah, he thought that is why I worry about Dame-Tsu not because I care or anything.

"You'll pay Dame-Tsu when I find you", he smirked as he began his search.

Vongola Mansion, Italy

It has been too long since Mukuro had contact with his underlings and his cousin. "Oh they will so feel my six paths if they don't report soon," he muttered. The mist guardian did not notice he passed by a gleefully floating white spike hair teen.

"Looking for your family, hmm~?" The Gesso primo asked as he munched his favorite snacks.

The mist guardian froze and whirled in a battle stance as he summoned his trident, "What would you know about that?"

Ignoring the hostility, he munched on and answered, "Oh~ I came across during my search and found something interesting on Decimo's desk."

Mukuro wondered what in the world would Byakuran look on Decimo's desk, but opted to asked, "And I care why?"

"How rude~" he pouted as the mist guardian fought the urged to roll his eyes, "Anyways there this small famiglia who was allied to the Estreneo," Mukuro growled, "and they found an unwanted hospital patient, a young girl who resembles you along with two of her lackeys." Mukuro hissed and asked where were they.

"Hmm~lets see why should I tell you?" he smirked with a strange insane glint in his eye.

"Byakuran!"

"Fine, fine, no need to yell or your boss will hear you," then the Gesso boss whispered mischievously, " after all he is the one funding the research," he flipped the jump drive to the desperate mist guardian. Byakuran with a dark determine glint in his eyes as he flew away, told his famiglia that came with him, "Lets keep on searching shall we."

Few days later, somewhere in a scientist lab, Japan

"I wonder what that checker-face mask guy want with us in reality?" he asked.
"Don't know, but it better be fun~" munching on marshmallows.
"Seriously_, how can you eat that stuff without getting sick?"
"What? You want some?"
"No way! Are you crazy?"
"What do you mean? You just notice~?" The two boys kept bickering until a young girl giggled.
"What's so funny?" Tsuna asked annoyed.
"We act as if we known each other long, but in fact it has been almost two months," Yuni laughed and the other two boys looked at each other and laughed as well.
"Its time children," the checker-faced man and his ever faithful assistant came into the presence of the sky trio.

Tsu-kun groggily woke up to some shouts after his weird dream again.

"Where did that boy disappeared now?!" Tsu-kun shook his sleepiness away and began to quietly run, inwardly happy for Reborn's training and using his feelings (even though it was that caused him being kidnapped in the first place, but it always led him to something good). He notice days before when he woke up in a strange room on a big table with buckles that fortunately had not tied Tsu-kun yet for the white coats were busy debating what to do with him, that were the same from Tsu-kun's nightmare. Where is Reborn when Tsu-kun need him most, the boy thought as he hid deeper into the shadows as more scientists ran passed him after sneaking out of the room.

A sudden spike in his famous feelings that had Tsu-kun ran to an unknown direction toward a door that was slightly opened. Quietly the boy opened it and smell a strong stench...and a lot of red. What snap him out of it was two older boys tied to a familiar looking table. Tip toeing he went to untie the half conscious boys which the boys abruptly woke up scaring little Tsu-kun.. Swallowing a small scream of surprise he jumped back.

One stared at him dully whereas the other hissed, "Oh another way to torture us, well do what you want with us, but let leave her alone!" pale blonde hair boy was angry as the quiet white beanie hat one nodded in agreement determined.

Tsu-kun blinked and stared, "Cool teeth!" he whispered at the angry on who just rolled his eyes, but felt a strange from such a genuine honest response. Checking his pockets, Tsu-kun took out a yo-yo he took from a weapon room and thought it looked out of place.

"Oi! Thats Kaki-pi's yo-yo! Give it back!" whispered loudly the cool teeth boy.

"You have to say please," giggled Tsu-kun and good a annoyedly said please in return. "Oh my name is Tsunayoshi Sawada, but you can call me Tsu-kun," the boy grinned. The boys felt they heard the name before...

"Name is Kakimoto Chikusa and friends call me Kaki-pi," muttered the white beanie guy with the yo-yo.

"My name is Ken- wait! I don't need to tell you my name!" horrified that the kid swayed him easily to drop his guard. "Besides isn't it dangerous to say your name to strangers?" At this Tsu-kun smiled sadly remembering Reborn said the same thing, but then he froze. Tsu-kun turned toward the door toward another room and the boys follow his gaze. "Chrome!" they yelled out and ran toward it with Tsu-kun behind. Unfortunately their conversation was too loud and were caught.

"Well, I'll be, trying to escape, eh?" A tall fancy white coat man sneered.

"Yo boss doesn't the little boy look familiar," interrupted on of the scientists.

"Who told you can to talk over me?!"

"Let Tsu-kun and his friends go, you meanie!" Tsu-kun twisted as he tried to escape. He stopped when he saw the girl that he guesses is Chrome who looked so weak and hurt so bad that her eye that was covered by her bangs was crying blood. Tsu-kun looked at her horrified and worried which was similar to the two other boys.

"Psh! Worry no more the girl would soon be dead," he took out a gun and pointed to the girl's head who looked back terrified, "just to put her out of her misery, after all I am merciful."

"NOOOO!" Tsu-kun fought harder at his captor, please someone, anyone save her, he thought. Suddenly, there was shot and a body went limp.

A green gun was smoking...

A/N: I hate it when authors leave a cliffhanger, but now I can see why its done. Its kind of ...fun. Been meaning to do the character files of the guardians, but decided since I am doing a sequel (heh, thinking ahead already I must be crazy)I would put it there. Oh as for the sky trio I wasn't planning doing them, but now maybe I will. That will be waaaaay later though. Till next time!
