A/N: Hello there my peeps. I wanted to thank you for those who reviewed and alerted as well as made "The Love For One" their favorites. Here I am with a new story to present to all of you. I'm supposed to be studying right now but plotbunnies keep on coming and I cannot stop them. Thus, here is one of the stories I'm doing. I'll probably post up some more stories before and after as well as during my examinations. I know, I'm odd for posting stories during examination but hey, I am pretty strange in my own little way as some of you are too. So, please enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Katekyo Hitman Reborn; Akira Amano does. If I did, Tsuna would have a Harem of hot boys chasing him and force him to wear sexy and cute outfits... (Faints abruptly)
Prologue
Abandoned…
A young boy was running towards an unknown destination in a fast pace. His body was clad with clothing that could not keep him warm in the cold, raining night. His brown gravity defying hair was pushed back by the force of the wind while his honey brown eyes were glistening as tears cascaded from them, down to his cheeks.
Such a painful word…
The tears cascaded down his cheeks even more when the boy tried closed his eyes tightly in an attempt to stop his flowing tears. His small and short legs were getting tired but the boy did not stop. He kept running, bracing himself against the cold. He was then reminded of those voices… Those words… They pained him to no end…
"Oi, idiot! You're a weakling! Go back to your mommy!"
"Having to raise such a failure like him… I feel sorry for his poor mother…"
The pain did not cease- in fact, it got worse… To hear those voices saying such things was painful… but it indeed got worse when they came out of the mouths of the only people he loved…
Why? Was my love for you not enough?
"Tsu-kun, mama has accepted the fact that Tsu-kun is my no-good son. I've gotten used to it. Don't worry; I don't expect you to achieve anything in life anytime soon," the woman he had called his 'mother' told him with disappointment in her eyes even though he had promised to do better. Did she really feel as if he was useless? Did she not love him? Was it because he was a failure?
"Because of you I had to come here when I have much more important things to do! If you hadn't existed, I could be working peacefully instead of coming here to a no-good son like you!" the man he had called his 'father' had yelled when he had told the man he wanted to play with him. Did he really think he was useless? Did he not love him? Was it because he was a failure?
You were my parents… How could you?
The boy hit his chest painfully with his small fist. Adults were liars! He did not want to be like them; to be a liar! He hates adults that lie! His parents' words pained him far too much, he ran away from home without packing anything. The seven year old boy entered a park, passing by a sign that stood tall. Written on it was 'Namimori Park'. He stopped and rubbed his eyes to wipe away the tears but it kept pouring as raindrops poured onto him.
I was not loved… I was abandoned…
Looking up, the boy spotted eleven figures; all of them were standing in different directions and were looking at him. One of the figures approached him and asked, "Hello there. What's your name little one?"
We were all abandoned…
"M-My name is S-Sawada Tsunayoshi. But you can call me Tsuna," the brunet child spoke out in a cute voice; very melodious even though he had stuttered. Tossing away the rule his mother had thought him on 'Not to Trust Strangers' to the side, he let the man clasped his hand gently. The people around him were emitting an aura that made him feel loved and safe. As if he could trust these unknown people.
"Well, Tsuna-chan, I would like to ask you something," the figure in front of him said before smiling softly. "Would you like to join us?"
A sweet and trusting smile was the figure's answer.
True, they were abandoned… But they soon found a family within each other…
Thus this is the end to the Prologue. And if you guessed that these strangers that Tsuna met are characters from KHR, unfortunately I must tell you that you are wrong. If you are an anime and yaoi lover, you might recognize their names and looks in the next chapter. So for now, Bye-bi!
