Yay another fanfic when I haven't even updated my other ones haha... I'm just having a serious problem with writing right now and plot bunnies keep on coming and they keep distracting me with all their adorableness. That, and I literally can't write a sentence without blanking out and wondering 'what am I writing about again?'

So... I just decided to screw everything and write another fanfic that has been begging for my attention recently. It's inspired by another fanfic that I have read a while ago.

AU. GEN fic. No Pairings.

Disclaimer: I do not own KHR.

Summary: Sky, Storm, Lightning, Rain, Sun, Mist, and Cloud, these were known as the seven Knights - or Elements - of the Sky in legends and myths that once appeared out of nowhere and rescued the world from disaster and guide it to an era of change. Or so it was dictated in children's books. Nowadays, there are people who have rainbow colored flames that goes by the same names as the weathers.

Ultima Thule, the school for prodigies of both the gifted and ungifted. By that, it means the academy accepts those who were born with exceptional talent(s) and/or display exceptional tenacity to substitute for what they lack.

The campus - stretched far enough to be considered as a small city - is administered by three factions; hence, three abnormally large buildings placed as far as were each corners of an equilateral triangle: Arcobaleno Tower, Mare Hall, and Vongola Castle were the names.

Out of the three, the Arcobaleno Tower is only accessible to the administration while Vongola and Mare are runned by the students. The only time the students were allowed into the Arcobaleno building was during their Initiation Ceremony where they are welcomed into the academy.

Each faction has their own sets of executive board consisting of seven seats. The Vongola Castle and Mare Hall have their Student Councils while the Acrobaleno Tower consisted of a council who held the position as headmasters of the school, or the Head Council if you want a proper name for it.

If you think the Acrobaleno Tower holds most of the power over Ultima Thule, then you got another thing coming. The pair of Student Councils, separate, are only second after the headmasters, but if together have power equal the Arcobaleno Tower. That is, if they could work together despite their differences. In the school's several centuries of history, the moments where Vongola and Mare joined hands could be counted on one hand (it goes to show how often they clash).

The three councils, together, were known through the school as the Trinisette, though it was a mystery as to why since the Arcobaleno Tower has eight instead of seven members like the other two.

Outsiders may think Ultima Thule to be insane as to let its students have that much power, but the core principle of UT is to allow the students free rein over their own affairs; after all, they were the next generation and they needed to learn how to solve problems by would them be able to better themselves against each other while teachers passively guide them along the way; hence, the school administration rarely involve themselves in student affairs. And as proven, this unique system is already better than any other school in terms of success.

The students, as implied earlier, are split into Vongola Castle and Mare Hall the moment they entered the school. The reason can be found within the process of how students are picked to enrolled to Ultima Thule. It was the students' job to find and sort out new potential students each year. So the Vonola and Mare essentially picked the students who will be the new members to their faction. Once the list was created, it was send to the Headmasters for approval. (Note: the age of enrollments vary because some people take longer to spot than others)

If, however, there was a dispute because they somehow managed to pick the same student, they would have to settle it by the rules of Ultima Thule whenever disputes arises.

(Of course, the application process is strictly safeguarded so outsiders have no clue how the academy does its enrollments - because despite the school being known far and wide, it still have plenty of secrets reserved only for their students and staffs and many more that are completely off limits.)

The Students of Vongola Castle and Mare Hall has always been opposing each other, but that never did cause any problems for the school's reputation. Rivalry was something UT encourages, because the students would find ways to improve and beat their rivals. Of course, means with ill-intention is prohibited and when (It wasn't a matter of if's, the school will find out) discovered, severe punishments will be dealt based on the number of offenses. The max would be three, and it's a direct expulsion from Ultima Thule (and that was just a part of it).

All in all, the students provide the talents, the school provides the environment to nurture them - or so the brochure says.

Sawada Tsunayoshi, for the life of him, didn't know whether he should be happy or angry as he watched the car disappear in the horizon.

His good-for-nothing father just dropped him off at this… this place! (He refused to call it a school. What kind of school look like a castle that came out of some fantasy?)

No matter what his parents said about how 'proud' they were of him for being admitted into this academy, Tsuna does not belong here! One look at the towering school building (fine, it's a school!) that spoke of antiquity that demands respect, and the luscious grounds around it (The freaking fountain smacked down between the central building and the invariably looming ivory gates was all sparkly and huge and silver and - and all things holy!) evince the careful craftsmanship put into every square inch down to each blade of grass.

It screamed every bits and pieces of its wealth and prominence!

Last time Tsuna check, he came from a middle class family. His father works at who-knows-where (The postcards he got from the North Pole and Death Valley definitely spoke volumes of his father's supposed occupation as a… a construction worker?) and he rarely comes home most of the time. His mother is a housewife, and as much as he didn't want to admit it, a really naive housewife. His brother was the normal one but he has been sent to study abroad since he'd turned eight (his parents were quite proud of him for reasons unknown to Tsuna). Tsuna himself was known as Dame-Tsuna in his (previous) school and was bullied every single day.

So… how exactly did he get accepted into Ultima Thule? (That was latin, dear Lord, Tsuna had trouble with modern English and this school just had to throw another language at his face?)

Some baby in a black suit and wearing a yellow pacifier and a snazzy fedora followed his father home last week, claiming to be a co-worker (Sure, and Tsuna is Santa Claus) and introduced himself as Reborn. Once he and Tsuna met gazes (and before Tsuna could even question why his father brought a toddler home and claim to be his co-worker of all things), Reborn literally threw a packet and a letter of acceptance in his face.

Then viola, he was in!

The smirk on Reborn's face unnerved Tsuna very much. He had always been in tuned with people and the world around him, so that mischievous smirk on the fedora-wearing baby's face send Tsuna's hair standing on ends and his mind blaring the neon signs of danger. He had a very strong urge to book the next flight to the other side of the globe right then and there. (And the fact that a toddler made Tsuna that wary didn't help his pride much.)

Of course, no matter how he tried to convince his parents that he shouldn't go (he was already having difficulties with regular school, let alone an eminent one!) but noooo, they just had to celebrate.

Sad to say, the commemoration for Tsuna's apparent admittance was way, way better than his own birthday celebrations. It makes one wonder if they cared about him at all. (Tsuna knew deep down - deep, very deep down - that they do and that was all that matters. Kind of.)

He narrowed his brown eyes (flecks of gold were visible if you were to really look) and with a huff, he marched for the opened gates. He was already there, and seeing as his only means of transportation had left, he had no other choice.

He stared, narrow eyes, at the fine line that separated him and the gargantuan school campus as if this was all a big prank that someone was playing on him.

Slowly lifting a step over the invisible line and tiptoed the other side, making sure that a monster wasn't going to jump out of nowhere and eat him. When nothing happened for about a minute, he deemed it safe - but he was still getting that sinking feeling that something bad was going to happen.

"What are you doing?"

"Huh?"

Tsuna looked up and saw a toddler (He's been seeing one too many recently) with long navy blue hair and a distinctive scar on her right cheek that looked awfully like flames and a blue pacifier around her neck. Although she looked tiny, like just below his knee, her poise said anything but fragile. The fierce aura that she was giving off - coupled with that scary scowl - told Tsuna that the toddler was someone he should never be crossed with. Like Reborn.

"Um…." He belatedly realized that he was making a fool of himself with what his current posture was like. It was as if he was trying to be sneaky but failing miserably.

The toddler took a step forward, Tsuna stepped back. Nopenopenope! was what that little voice inside his head was telling him. It was the same feeling that he got from Reborn - though she seemed to be on the less sadistic side (like minuscule. On the molecular level.) than Reborn. But it was still enough to scare him witless. And more importantly, wasn't anyone the around him the slightest bit concerned that a two year old baby was at school? Was a baby even allowed in school?!

The toddler scoffed, "Really pathetic."

Ouch. Okay, maybe he deserved that after his blatant attempt of escape.

"Stop making yourself look even more like a moron." She all but commanded and turned on his heel. "Follow me, newbie."

Tsuna really, really didn't -

A backwards glare.

- love to obey the her command.

The moment he stepped through the gateway though, he felt an invisible tug, then a wave of dizziness, and -

"INNNNCOMING!"

- the world went dark.

And that was his first day at the academy.

No, Seriously. Tsuna's lights were out for the rest of the day due to blood loss - and probably brain damage.

Uh... Okay, just to let you guys know, I'm not trying to be humorous... This fanfic is more fantasy and adventure (plus family) than humor so don't let this chapter fool you. And it's probably going to be a slow built up in the beginning because in the next chapter or more, there's going to be an indefinite amount of info-dump that I'm sure you guys prefer to skip but I'm going to do it anyways.

This is a sort-of-kind-of Magic AU (You'll understand once the engine starts up).
