A/N: Sorry this chapter is a little late, my sister and I both ended up sick during the weekend. And one of the characters I name dropped earlier in the story may have had their backstory completely changed. *sweat drops* As for Masahiro, you'll see more of him in the next chapter. I hope you all enjoy and feel free to leave a review!
Full House
They stumbled upon Fuuta on accident while they were walking home from school. Apparently Fuuta kept tabs on Tsuna through his ranking. "If you're dead last in all his rankings, why would he keep a close eye on them?" Shizuka wondered aloud. Fuuta looked straight at her and smiled. "And you must be big sister Shizuka!" Shizuka froze. "You... can see me?"
"Yep! You're ranked number one in most protective sibling that would commit murder and number ten in most likely to take over the world on a whim." Fuuta chirped. Tsuna gave her a look of horror. "Oh come on! The most I do is send people to the hospital. Besides, do you really think a ghost could successfully take over the world?" She asked, crossing her arms.
Tsuna deadpanned. "Isn't the knowledge that you actually thought about it telling enough?" He asked bluntly, Shizuka shrugged. "I got really bored when I'm not shadowing you. Why do you think most wandering spirits eventually turn evil? We get bored and eventually throw away any morals without someone to ground us." She says bluntly, remembering another ghost she'd met. They weren't a dying will ghost and ended up being exorcised by Daichi due to its violent nature. It was more feral than human.

It seemed like every time they ran into the boy, he was running from men in suits. "That's it, I'm luring Hibari here." Shizuka says irritably, disappearing to find the elusive cloud. Not even half a minute had passed when an infuriated Hibari appeared, hot on Shizuka's heels. "There's an abduction in progress, bite them to death instead!"
One of the men had the nerve to laugh. "Like a teen could do anything against us!" Shizuka and Hibari exchanged a look, for once they were on the same wavelength. "Normally I wouldn't waste energy on morons like you, but you need to be put down." She says, grabbing Tsuna's school bag and using it as a makeshift weapon. Fuuta and Tsuna watched as the mafia men were "bitten" by the irritated teens. Tsuna didn't know it was possible to knock someone out with his bag!
"How did you do that?" Tsuna asked, Shizuka grinned. "Those school textbooks were good for something after all."
Hibari's men were soon called to the scene and Hibari slammed his tonfa into Shizuka's head. "Ouch! What the hell, didn't you already exact your revenge last time?" Shizuka demands. "Now we're even tanuki." He states. Shizuka's jaw dropped and Tsuna laughed. "Oh come on! A raccoon dog? You know that I'm more like a kitsune you ass!" Hibari ignored her, supervising the clean up. Shizuka pouted. "Well, at least he won't attack you on sight anymore."
"But why were all those men after you Fuuta?" Shizuka asks. "That's because he's a famous figure in the mafia world." Reborn says, randomly dropping from a tree dressed as a stag beetle. "But he's just a kid!" Shizuka protests. "That kid is Fuuta de la Stella, also known as the Ranking Prince. Families would kill to have his ranking skills and have."
"Not on our watch they won't. Mama won't mind having another kid in the house." Shizuka says as Fuuta looked at the siblings hopefully. "I can stay with you?" He asks. "Of course! And if those guys come after you again, we can just sic Hibari on them. He makes a wonderful attack dog." Shizuka says with a grin. "I hope for your sake Hibari never hears you say that." Tsuna muttered.

Fuuta was a wonderful addition to the Sawada family. Now it wasn't just Tsuna trying to keep an eye on the two energetic toddlers in the house. He also had no problem with acting as a medium for Shizuka, usually when I-Pin and Lambo were getting out of hand. His ranking powers reminded Tsuna of whenever his sister was mad, so the first time the furniture started floating he was telling Shizuka to knock it off. "There's something that's been bothering me though. Is he just a psychic or does he have flames?" Shizuka wondered.
Tsuna sighed. "You're a ghost and you're wondering if he's a psychic?" Shizuka shrugged. "It isn't like I constantly question my own existence or anything. And Kyoya looks like he's having fun chasing off the mafia men stupid enough to step foot in his territory." It was weird, out of the entire family Kyoya was the only one that used violence to solve everything. Then again she hadn't met Meifeng's husband, apparently the man was a police officer that was often undercover. Maybe that was where Kyoya had gotten it.
As Shizuka and Tsuna helped the new addition adjust to their crazy family, Reborn read a letter the Vongola Nono had just sent him. His face darkened. What was Timoteo thinking? He was just going to throw his civilian heir at a man that killed two families! He pinched the bridge of his nose. So far the only subordinates his student had was a baseball player, a delinquent with an explosive temper and a boxer unable to use an indoor voice. And every good boss needs capable subordinates.
"Tsuna, I need to borrow your sister for a moment." Reborn states. Shizuka looked at Fuuta and Tsuna, then she shrugged. He was wearing the watch so it wasn't like she had to make herself solid. "Sure. I'll see you guys later." After walking a few feet away from the house Reborn gave a frustrated sigh. "I need you to be visible, I don't like talking to thin air." Shizuka slowly entered his vision, giving him an amused smirk. "Why not? You could just pretend it's one of those watches that connects to a cell phone." She comments.
"I need you to be serious, your brother's safety could be at stake with this development." Reborn says bluntly, handing the letter over to Shizuka. She was silent for a moment, skimming over the contents. Shizuka crumbled the paper, a dark aura emanating from her body. "What the hell is that old man thinking? Shouldn't this be a job for a professional, like the people that imprisoned them in the first place? And threatening to kill the only living heir, unless there's another sibling Iemitsu hid away, doesn't make any sense!"
Reborn nodded in agreement. "It's a test to see how far your brother has come in his training. He won't be able to confront them by himself." Shizuka looked at Reborn thoughtfully. "So you want me to help from the shadows or something? I don't know about Kyoya but I could try asking Masahiro and Daichi for help." Reborn raised an eyebrow. "I take it those two can see you as well." From what he'd seen of Daichi he seemed to be a latent Rain and this Masahiro could be an element as well. "Reborn?" The hitman shook his head. "It's nothing. I'll have a colleague look into it." "Look into what? Stop being mysterious and give us some answers for once!"
Bonus: He wants what now?!
Giannini and Natsumi, Coyote's granddaughter, were both working on bullets able to store different flame types when the phone in their lab began to ring. "Who is it?" Natsumi asks, not bothering to look up from her project. "I'm not sure, it's an unregistered number." Giannini says nervously. Even burn phones had some sort of number to trace. "Hello?"
"Ciaosuu." The man broke out in a nervous sweat and fumbled the phone. How had Reborn of all people gotten their number?! "Reborn sir! How can the Vongola technical staff help you?" He asks, Natsumi nearly fell out of her chair. "THE Reborn? Don't make a bad impression Giannini!" Natsumi hissed, glaring daggers at the man. Giannini gulped. "I want a ghost translator." Reborn says bluntly, Giannini would have laughed if Natsumi's eyes weren't promising a painful death.
"Could you repeat that again? I'm putting the phone on speaker." Giannini says. "You heard me the first time. I need something to translate the sound waves from ghosts." Reborn says irritably. "Is this ghost a dying will ghost?" Natsumi demands, clenching her fists. There was no guarantee it was the one she was thinking about, but if it was then she'd be taking a vacation to Japan. "That's correct. Can it be done?" Reborn asks impatiently. Giannini was about to say that he knew nothing on the subject but found his mouth being covered.
"Don't worry sir, I specialize in ghost hunting equipment. Where will you need it delivered to?" Natsumi asks sweetly. "Namimori, Japan." Natsumi's eyes glinted. "No problem sir!" She chirped before ending the call. Now she just needed to find a good excuse to travel to Japan that her grandfather would find believable. Giannini just sighed. Was everyone in Vongola so eccentric?
