A Hero of Dying Will

Ch6

"Class is dismissed," the teachers voice calls out.

The teachers words act as a switch. The once quiet classroom filled with obedient and well mannered children vanishes and is replace with the shouts of overly excited kids wanting to go home and enjoy their weekend. A scramble takes place as people begin to stuff their bags and rush out the door, to go home.

For Tsunayoshi Sawada it is no different. Thinking of the weekend fills him with a sense of joy and he can't help but smile. Though it isn't necessarily the prospect of having time away from school that excites or relieves Tsuna. Instead it is because he will have the time to devote to trying to access his dying will flames.

Walking through the halls Tsuna heads for the schools entrance. Just as he is leaving the school building he senses something is wrong and quickly jumps to the left, narrowly dodging a soccer ball speeding past him and hitting the wall where he had been moments before.

Hearing laughter, Tsuna looks to his right and sees three boys. The boy on the left and middle of the group laugh and point at Tsuna, while the last boy wears an unpleasant expression on his face.

"Oh man, look at his face," the boy with black hair and eyes choked out between his laughter as he nudges the boy next to him.

"What a loser," the boy on the right says.

"Did you see the look on his face," middle boy laughs.

"But Daisuke, what was up with that kick? I thought you had a aiming quirk or something," the boy in the middle complains to the boy on his right.

"Give me a break Hideki," Daisuke says."It was just a fluke. He dodged it. Even if i use my quirk, if they dodge it then there's nothing I can do."

"How stupid," the third boy laughs.

"Not you too Eiji," Daisuke groans, "like you can do better."

While the three boys argue, Tsuna makes his escape. While he would like to say that occurrences like the one that just took place are rare. The truth is that even in this alternate universe Tsuna still finds himself a victim of bullying and generally being considered the joke of the school. The difference this time is that in this world he isn't a completely hopeless case. In fact his grades and athletic ability are above average. If he was in his previous world he would be considered a perfectly normal kid, who is a little socially inept. But in this new world, it isn't how smart or strong you are but instead the quirk that you possess that decides your social standing. And for Tsuna a person who doesn't have a quirk he is considered a freak, a nobody, unnormal...useless. The result is that Tsuna finds himself once again an outcast, were other children either avoid him or pick on him. Lately some of his peers have even started to use their quirks on him.

Because of the importance that is put on quirks, it has left Tsuna with little choice. To better fit into this world Tsuna needs a quirk or at the very least something that can be mistaken as a one. In other words, he needs to access his dying will flames. Though, that's easier said then done.

Entering a wooded area, Tsuna carefully make his way through the bushes, trees and undergrowth until he reaches a large clearing. The clearing is mostly empty except for some tires, rope and a metal box partially hidden under a bush. Walking over to the box, he opens it and pulls out some bandages. Wrapping up his hands, he then places his school bag in the box, were it will remain safe, while he is training. After stretching, Tsuna starts with his warmup thirty pushups, thirty squats, thirty sit ups and thirty jumping jacks.

At seven years old he doesnt have much strength or staminum, which is one of the reasons why he started this routine. The other reason is so that he can access his dying will flames. From what Tsuna could remember about dying will flames, it can be difficult to access them. The most common way a person can access them, without outside interference, is to experience a life and death situation. But Dying will flames don't always awaken in a life and death situation. As Reborn once explained, most people will never be a able to access their dying will flames and if they find themselves in a dire situation, whether intentional or not, they are likely to die. Tsuna very much enjoys being alive. In other words the option of throwing himself into a dangerous situation to unlock his dying will flames is off the table.

This makes things very difficult. As the two most convenient ways to unlock dying will flames, the dying will bullet and dying will pill, are outside of Tsuna reach. In this world he isn't even sure if the dying will bullets and pills excist. He doesnt know if people have dying will flames in this world, much more if key people in the mafia have them and have decided to experiment on them, to find a way to more easily access them. In a world were quirks exist what would even be the point of dying will flames.

All Tsuna currently knows is that he can feel they, under his skin, just out of his reach. His being able to use the vongola intuition is proof that he must still have his sky flames. He just needs to unlock them.

Which is the other reason for training himself. For there is one other way to access dying will flames, through intense training. Or at least thats what people like Lal Mirch, Colonello, Ryohei and Fon had always insisted. So Tsuna has thrown himself into training himself in the hopes of doing just that.

The problem that he faced after making his decision to train, is that he had no idea what do. All the training he received in his previous life had been dangerous, terrifying and forced on him. The only training routine he could some what remember that didn't have him fearing for his life was one he remembers Ryohei practicing.

Tying some rope around some tires and tying the rope to himself, Tsuna starts to run around the clearing. While running he thinks about how his training has been going.

When he first began working out he'd barely been able to do a pushup and running around the clearing left him breathless. Now he can do these things with ease but it still isn't enough. He still can't access his dying will flames.

An hour later, he is finish training for the day and starts cleaning up. The tires are put into a stack, the rope is wound up, the bandages are taken off his hands and place in his pocket. After removing his backpack from the box, he turns to leave the clearing. Making his way out of the trees, bushes and brush he steps out onto the sidewalk and heads home.

While walking he sees a stone on the ground and kicks it. The stone hits the wall across the way bounces off and knocks a garbage can over. Wincing he runs over and picks up the trashcan. Throwing the pieces of trash that have fallen out, back into the trashcan, Tsuna pauses as he picks up a crumpled piece of paper. Curious, he smooths out the paper and sees that is a flyer for martial arts lessons.

'Become stronger both in mind and body. Discover yourself and the inner strength hiding within. Join the Bai Hai Dojo.'

"Martial arts, huh," Tsuna mutters and then notices how low the sun has gotten. "It's getting late! I better hurry home.

Shoving the piece of paper into his pocket Tsuna takes off running.

Taking out his keys from his backpack, Tsuna uses them to unlock the door and enters his home. A wave of delicious smells assault his nose and his stomach rumbles, telling him how hungry he is from all that training.

Closing and locking the door behind him, Tsuna calls out, "mom! I'm home."

"Welcome home Tsuna-kun," answers his mother from the kitchen, "dinner will be ready in a minute. Go wash up."

"Okay," Tsuna calls back as he climbs the stairs and walks into his room. Grabbing a change of clothes he heads for the bathroom. Changing out of his dirty clothes and into some cleans one, he then washes his face and hands. He then takes his dirty clothes to the laundry room and checks his pockets before dumping them in the dirty clothes pile. Finding the bandages from earlier, he throws them away. Hand grasping a piece of paper from inside his pocket, Tsuna finds the flyer he picked up earlier about martial arts lessons.

Paper in hand he walks dining room. Nana sees her son staring intently at a piece of paper and asks, "what's that?"

Looking up at his mother and then back at the flyer, Tsuna frowns and hands it to her. Taking the flyer, she sees that it's about martial arts lessons.

"I think... I want to give it a try," Tsuna says.

"Huh?" Nana questions.

"I want to learn martial arts," he clarifies.

A bit surprise with her sons sudden interest, Nana guesses it must be a boy thing and smiles, "alright."

After a great deal of time, I finally wrote a new chapter for this fic. It's short.

So it's come to my attention that I didn't correctly explain how old Tsuna is in the previous chapter. Just to let everyone know in this chapter Tsuna is seven years old. He's also in 2nd grade. So by chapter it's like this

Tsuna's age:

ch1: age 3 1/2

ch2: age 3 1/2

Ch3: age 4

Ch4: age 5 kindergarten

Ch5: age 6, first grade

Ch6: age 7, second grade

For people wondering when characters from "My Hero Academia" are going to show up, some of them will start to show up around when he's in jr high.

Reviews:

Thank you to everyone who favorited, followed and reviewed last chapter. It means a lot to me, especially those who reviewed. So a huge thanks to EmeraMist, RileyLan, Altiria-Aty, Niknok19, anneko16, A, Boundsoul341, prince, Silver Celestia, Ie-maru, dragonfighter11, Silverfoxkurama, Foxchick1, KHRandothersFORLIFE666, Shadowcreeper, Ann, Blades, Ayumi Sawada, Guest101, nessa11997 and Guest.

A: You're welcome. I'll do my best! Look, there's more to read. Thanks for the review.

prince: Thanks for the review. Yep, ;))))))

Ann: Lol, yep. Technically dwf aren't quirks. As in the canon universe everyone has a dwf but only a few have managed to access it. while quirks most people have but some don't have them. They also are different things as dwf are like the will to live and quirks are a product of evolution. Thanks for the review.

Blades: I also like him. To a lot of your questions, maybe. I don't want to soil it :(. Thanks for the review.

Ayumi Sawada: Thanks for the review. Glad you like it so far, yeah it's sad. The arcobaleno will show up and I only plan on having Tsuna remember his previous life. The rest is a secert!

Guest101: Thanks for the review. Here's an update!

Guest: I'm not sure they'll be female. A lot of people want them to be male. More like Reborn would enjoy teasing Tsuna a lot more. But yeah she would still be a sadist. Thanks for the review.
