A/N: First Reborn story for me, so yeah. I'm not going to spend as much time on this story because of my other work-in-progress.

It was a starry night and the moon was full. Tents and attractions were set up in the middle of a grassy field. The iron gates stood tall at the entrance. The iron sign was held up proudly in a branch-like font that spelled Monochrome Carnival. Many people stood at the gates with their tickets in their hands, waiting for them to open. A red velvet rope was set up in front of the place to keep visitors out until they were ready to open. There were paths of black and white checkered rugs inside. The light source, stylish Victorian iron lanterns, all lit up at once, even the ones on the entrance.

In the distance were two young, teenage children, one boy and one girl. The boy wore a black and white checkered vest over a plain white dress shirt, checkered and baggy shorts that reached just at the knees. The girl wore the same checkered vest except that it ws a little shorter and it fit more snugly, a plain dress shirt, and checkered shorts with the bottom folded up higher. She wore mismatched thigh high boots that were held by mismatched leather garters that buckled in the front. One boot was fully checkered and the garter that held it was plain white, but the other boot was fully white and was held by a checkered garter. The boy wore white ankle socks and Mary-Janes in similar fashion to his sister. One shoe was checkered with a white strap across the top, and the other was white with a checkered strap across the top. Both had identical white gloves and identical checkered ties around their neck that went under the vests. They were indeed, monochrome.

The people looked in wonder as the twins approached, lanterns in hand. They both had gravity-defying, snowy white hair that swished as they walked, though more for the girl than the boy for she had hair that reaches her hip. Their red eyes seemed to pierce their souls as they looked around at the crowd.

They pushed open the iron gates all the way out and stepped out. The twins positioned themselves on each side of the red, velvet rope and uncooked it. The visitors became restless and,started to shuffle forward, but with a vicious glare from the boy and a bone-chilling smile from the girl, the people stopped in their tracks. Th a boy thew his side of the unhooked rope and tossed it to the other side.

While keeping that visitors at bay, and stepping back to their posts at the gate while smiling, they announced it at the exact same time.

"Welcome, to the Monochrome Carnival!"

It was a bright and early day for the twins. Fourteen-year-old Sawada Tsunaru woke up early to wake her elder twin brother. She climbed down from the top of their bunk beds in their own personal tent.

The girl saw a tuft of blond hair from under the covers and called out his name. "Ieyasu..." Tsunaru tried to nudge him awake. "Onii-san! Plese wake up!" Tsunaru got a little louder and slightly has her in her shaking.

"Hmm...?" the blond responded, cracking a single, brilliant blue eye open. "I'll be right up." Ieyasu replied. "And call me Onii-chan."

"Onii-chan!" Tsunami piped in a cheerful voice and sunny smile.

Ieyasu blushed and bolted upright in bed to tackle his sister. "YOU ARE SO ADORABLE!" he shouted.

"Waaaahh! Onii-chan!" Tsunaru screamed as her brother wrapped his arms around her neck and dragged her into the bed.

"Okay, okay." Ieyasu gave in and they both got up. He looked over his sisters pajamas, which are comprised of a white tank top and black shorts that reached a little shorter than mid-thigh. His own pajamas comprised of a black tank top and long white pants. Tsunaru put on a white long sleeved shirt and a black-and-white checkered hooded vest.

"I'll wait for you outside, Onii-chan." Tsunaru lifted the tent entrance flap and walked out into the bright morning. 'She's so cute,' Ieyasu thought. He himself had to get up and changed. He put on slightly tight-fitting white jeans with a black/white checkered belt, and kept on his black shirt. He walked out where Tsunaru had waited for him.

"Good mornin', my adorable sister." Ieyasu yawned. He put his arms around his sister's shoulders from behind, and leaned against her. "What time is it? It's too early."

"It's 7:30 and time for breakfast. We had work a little more since The people last night were more rowdy than we had thought." They walked to the cafeteria tent. There was a fairly short line since not a lot of people get up too early for breakfast.

"What would you two like to eat?" the kind cafeteria lady asked.

"I'll have a plate of two eggs, two slices of bacon, and a slice of toast with butter." Tsunaru told her.

"I'll have the same." Ieyasu said, smoothly.

"I'll be right back with that, you cuties." she responded. Tsunaru looked at her brother.

"Why do you speak so formally in public, Onii-chan?" Tsunaru asked. Ever since they found out that they were twins, he has always acted like the older brother, meaning he would only be less formal to her than others. He was taller too, so she would have to wear high heels to make up the difference when performing.

"I don't know... Habit I guess." Ieyasu replied truthfully. When he had found out they were twins, they met at the Monochrome Carnival. They didn't even know each other until they were put up in the same tent. Despite their different features, he knew instantly. Call it tuition, if you will. Ieyasu started by asking her name, formally, then they began to talk about how they had happened to meet here. Tsunaru ran for finding that her dad was mafia, and Ieyasu, previously Giotto, ran from being in mafia. They then matched up the story details and figured that they were siblings, and moreover, twins. Quite the coincidence.

"Here you go, children." the cafeteria lady smiled.

"Thank you very much!" Tsunaru smiled brightly at her as Ieyasu smiled coolly. The lady laughed and shooed them away.

They went out to sit under the artificial cherry blossom tree that they always sit at. They sat peacefully for many minutes. When they finished eating, Tsunaru leaned against Ieyasu, and he petted her head.

"It's time to set up, Tsunaru-chan." Ieyasu stood and offered his sister a hand.

"That's right, Onii-chan!" she said, taking her brother's hand.
