AN: I Don't own Assassination classroom or katekyo hitman reborn
Last time…
The mini Korosensei turned out to be Reborn the world's number one hitman. He came to see how Tsuna and the others were doing. After some surprising circumstances their little secret was revealed that they were a part of the Vongola mafia family.
Kid time
A dull grey shrapnel piece was dropped in a breaker of refreshing cool water. The still surface was set ablaze with a lilac flame as the shrapnel piece kissed the surface. The flame only lasted for half a minute before it eventually died out. "As you can see the reaction came along much quicker than lithium and sodium. And if you look down on the first group of the periodic table you'll see potassium is further down. This is not just a coincidence as the further you go down the more reactive the element is. This is due to the fact the outer electron is easily lost since it's further away from the nucleus and so less energy is needed to remove it." E-class' newest teacher explained as she wrote out an equation on the board. "These are special types of metals called Alkali Metals and they each share the following physical properties: low melting point/boiling point, low density and they are very soft. Any questions?"
One student put up a hand, "Why was there that fizzing sound with the other two metals?"
"It's quiet simple really. If you take a look at the equation there are two products in each reaction- a hydroxide of the metal as well as hydrogen. The fizzing sound you hear is the production of hydrogen being made," she answered. "In your exams they might ask you to prove this and all you need to say is that when you put a lit splint near the reaction it would make a squeaky pop. This indicates there is a production of hydrogen."
"Oh I see."
Tsuna smiled nervously at the sight. And here I thought she was going to teach about poisons. Their new chemistry teacher, Bianchi, seemed to have gotten used to her new job despite it being her first lesson with E-class. Surprisingly, she was a good teacher who explained things well and wasn't so harsh when a student asked for help. In fact thanks to her calm demeanour she was easy to approach. It's hard to believe she's a world renowned hitwoman if you looked at her now.
The woman adjusted her goggles. "Alright kids that's all I have to teach you for today. Good luck to you all for your up and coming exams and don't forget to revise your notes."
"Yes, Miss Bianchi," the class replied.
As Bianchi waved goodbye to them the door opened before she touched the handle…
"Stupid Tsuna! Where are you?" yelled a loud and annoyed voice. A child wearing cow patterned onesie and a massive black afro with horns sticking on either side marched through the door. His wide baby, green eyes scanned the class until they found what they seek. "There you are, Stupid Tsuna." As fast as his little legs can carry him he raced over to the stunned boy. He leaped over his head and grabbed him from behind. "Where have you've been, Stupid Tsuna, you haven't come back to Mama in forever." The cow baby cried and drummed on the boy's fluffy hair in anger.
"Lambo! No hit Tsuna Gege. Not good." Another child appeared at the door. She was wearing Chinese style clothing with grey pants and a lucky red coloured shirt. Her head was big and melon shape as sprouting from the top was a black, braided tail. Swiftly, she dashed towards Tsuna and hopped on his knees. "Stop, Lambo!" she demanded as she reached out to him.
The cow baby stuck his tongue out to the other child. "Make me, tail head."
"Lambo, I-pin!" called out a new voice. Another child, older than the two, raced in. His hair was a pale chestnut brown like his eyes and he wore dull coloured causal clothes and long with a large satchel bag. His big round eyes sparkled with joy at the sight of Tsuna. "Big brother Tsuna!" He cheered in delighted as he ran to him. The little boy laughed all the way there and jumped onto the still stunned Tsuna.
The force was so strong it caused Tsuna to fall off his chair along with the three children. The cow baby named Lambo stayed on his head playing with the boy's fluffy brown hair. The girl, I-pin, was cradled in Tsuna's arms. She cuddled close to his chest. Tiny Fuuta on the other hand was on Tsuna's waist side tightly while smiling sweetly. "We missed you." They cheered with Lambo added on another 'Stupid Tsuna'.
"Lambo, I-pin, Fuuta. How do you three get here?" Tsuna asked complete surprised.
"Tsuna, you have siblings?" Nagisa asked as he giggled at the sight.
"What? No! They're not my…"
"You three? I told you stay in the hotel," Bianchi scolded as she leaned over the kids with hands on her hips.
"Sis!" Gokudera jumped into the conversation, "How could you bring that stupid cow here?"
"I didn't," she replied. Then she grabbed Lambo by the afro. "They snuck into my luggage. I didn't find out until I opened them."
The cow baby retaliated by swinging his arms and legs around like windmills. "Let go you big meanie." He cried, "It's your fault any way."
"Bianchi, what did you do?" Tsuna asked timidly.
"Well…"
Yesterday evening…
The kids were lying on the living room carpet blankly staring at the ceiling. They've been like that for the entire day barely moving one inch. In fact the only movement they did was their little chests going up and down and the occasional blinking eyes. They sighed as a choir. "Lambo-san is bored," the cow baby whined.
"I-pin too," the young martial artist shared the boy's feeling of emptiness.
"Yeah," the eldest of the three yawned out. "There's nothing for us to do."
They continued to stare at the pure white ceiling as time sluggishly slipped away. Then one of them snapped: "AAAAHHHH! LAMBO-SAN CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!" The cow baby screamed with all his might. Then he ran around the room aimlessly at top speed. "WHERE'S STUPID TSUNA WHEN YOU REALLY WANT HIM! NAY!" He pulled on his hair to try and let out his frustration and prevented himself from dying of boredom.
The door slowly creaked open. "Kids? Is everything alright in here?" Peeking inside slightly concerned was Tsuna's mother. "I heard screaming. Did something happen?"
I-pin shot up at the sight of the woman and she hopped over to her. "Mama, is Tsuna gege here? I-pin wants see him."
Sadly, the woman smiled. "I'm sorry, I-pin, but I don't think Tsuna will be coming back any time soon. He will be awfully busy in his new school. Not to mention it's really far away and so it wouldn't be easy for him to visit us I'm afraid."
"Aweoh." The little girl's head sunk down in sadness. "I-pin wants see Tsuna gege."
"NAY!" Lambo cried, "Why did stupid Tsuna have to leave anyway? And why did he have to take Stupidera and Yamamoto with him?" He complained in a very whiny tone as he swung his arm angrily around. "Now Bianchi and Reborn are gone too! And there's nothing fun to do!"
Fuuta nodded in agreement, "Things have become a lot quieter now that Tsuna left. It's a little too quite." He dropped his little head and stared at his feet gloomily, "It's kind of lonely."
"Awe," the woman cooed as she knelt down to their level. "I know you kids must miss Tsuna a lot. I miss him too but think of it this way. Kunugigaoka is a very good school and it's an amazing opportunity for him. Not only that but he's there with friends so he won't be alone." Her pep talk didn't seem to be working as they still have pouty faces on and they don't seem to be coming off anytime soon. "Oh come on kids. I'm sure Tsuna would be very unhappy to know you all have such sad faces on. Come on show me a smile" They tried to smile for her but they just couldn't find the will.
At that moment a certain someone returned from her trip. "I'm back."
"Bianchi!" The kids cheered as the raced after her in excitement.
"Where were you, Bianchi?" Fuuta asked curiously.
She brushed her hair back a bit. "I went to check on Hayato and the others."
"Big brother Hayato?" Fuuta wonder.
"That's right."
I-pin hopped closer, "Did you see Tsuna gege?"
"Yes."
"Ah!" Lambo screamed as he ran over to the poison lady and pounded his tinny fits on her legs. "No fair! No fair! No fair! Bianchi, you big meanie you should have taken Lambo-san with you." He moaned while tear drops were about to escape his eyes. "Take me to Stupid Tsuna now eh. I want to play with him now eh." He demanded but Bianchi didn't care and walked away. Chasing after her, Lambo attached himself on one of her legs yet she still continued to walk with very little care. "Lambo-san won't let go until Bianchi takes him to wherever Stupid Tsuna is."
I-pin followed his example and latched herself on Bianchi's free leg. "Take I-pin too. I-pin wants to see Tsuna gege."
"Please, Bianchi," Fuuta begged with his puppy dog eyes actived. "We'll try and not cause you much trouble. We promise."
With a sigh Bianchi knelt down to the kids, "Look I'm sorry but I can't take you with me. Besides Tsuna and the others will be very busy now and they won't have time to play with you anyway. Not only that but I'll be moving in with them and start my career as a teacher so I won't have the time to take care of you all."
"Moving in with them!" Lambo yelled. "Bianchi, you big meanie! You get too see Tsuna everyday then. Take Lambo-san with you!"
"No," she replied firmly. "Now if you excuse me I need to pack my bags. I leave tomorrow morning."
"Oh you're leaving?" Tsuna's mother joined in.
Bianchi smiled at the woman, "I'm afraid so. I thank you for your hospitality but I'll be moving in with your son and his friends along with Reborn."
"I see, please take care of them."
"Of course. I'll take care of them as if they were mine and Reborn's children." She then drifted off into a dream of the future with her and reborn married and with children. "Oh Reborn~" she cooed as she walked up the stairs dazed.
"Bianchi!" Lambo screamed as he was about to race after her but he was stopped by Fuuta. "Let me go eh!"
"Lambo, wait." The boy whispered something in the cow baby's ear and his eyes transformed to ones of mischief. The baby rubbed his tiny scheming hands together. He was about to announced that he agreed to this plan but Fuuta grasped hold of his mouth. "Ssshh."
Early next morning, Bianchi was about to leave but Tsuna's mother came rushing in with two bags. "Bianchi, I think you forgot these two."
"Oh thank you very much." She took the bags and placed them with the others before driving off to her new place.
Little did anyone know hidden within those bags were the kids tightly packed with some clothes to cover themselves. Fuuta was curled up in the bigger bag alone and snug. Meanwhile, unlucky I-pin was stuck with Lambo in at tightly packed double bag. However they did manage to duct tape his mouth and tie him up as much as possible so that he wouldn't blow their cover by yelling or moving too much. Yeah he wasn't really happy about all this but if he's still mad all they have to do is give this really big lollipop they stored away just in case.
Now in present time…
"So when I opened up my suitcases they popped right out," Bianchi explained.
"I can't believe you, sis. How could you fall for such a tactic?"
"I was distracted."
"With what?"
"The thought of working side by side with my beloved Reborn and getting to live with him along my beloved younger brother." She cooed and she cupped her flushed cheeks and twisted from side to side. "Speaking of Reborn it's time for me to go and find him." She swiftly took off her goggles which caused Gokudera to become pale white. "My shift here is done so goodbye."
"Bianchi," Tsuna called out. "Aren't you going to help us with the kids?"
"No they're your problem now as well as your next teacher's. I'm no longer obliged to stay here." Without turning back once she waved farewell and walked out.
At the moment, Gokudera lost all the strength to stand and fell back into Yamamoto awaiting arms. "You should really keep it together, Gokudera."
"Shut up," he snapped back weakly.
Dropping his head in dismay, Tsuna moaned, "I can't believe she just left us like that."
I-pin caught on to his gloomily aura and frowned. "Tsuna gege is not happy to see I-pin and others?" She asked sadly.
He realised his mistake and quickly changed his attitude with a smile. "Oh no, I-pin. I'm really happy to see all of you," he admitted and cuddled the little girl closer to his cheeks. "I really missed you guys too."
The girl smiled widely at his response and cuddled Tsuna's face with her tiny arms. "I-pin happy too."
"Lambo-san wants join too!" Without warning the cow baby jumped onto Tsuna's shoulder and grabbed a clump of his brown hair for support. He waved a pink spiral lollipop as if it was a victory flag as he showed off a huge, toothy grin. "Tsuna obviously missed Lambo-san the most."
"Lambo." Tsuna groaned and let one of his eyes close form the pain of his hair being pulled on. "Please don't grab onto my hair like that." Feeling a little left out from the fun, Fuuta launched his own surprise attack from behind. He latched hold of Tsuna's unguarded back laughing happily. "Oh come oh you three we already done this no need to do it again." He laughed with them.
"Awe~" the girls sang as a choir.
One of them took the little girl from Tsuna's arms. She turned the confused I-pin towards her and greeted the child with a huge smile. "Aren't you just the cutest little thing? What's your name sweetie?"
The little girl dropped her head down in embarrassment. "I-pin," she replied quietly.
"That's a lovely name. I'm Toka Yada"
I-pin's blush grew redder as she tried to hide herself in her sleeves. "You have nice name too."
"Awe." A crowd of girls gathered round itching to see such an adorable sight. "She's so cute."
Meanwhile, Lambo trotted to the Terasaka gang in high spirits. He bounced on top of Terasaka's table and sat down cross legged. His large emerald eyes gazed at the grumpy Terasaka as a smile was placed on his lips. Terasaka glared at the cheerful child and clicked his tongue, "What do you want?"
The baby cow's grin grew wider as he pointed at the boy. "I like the way you look you. You will become Lambo-san's subordinate!"
With flame eyes Terasaka growled at the child. "The hell I'm going to be anyone's subordinate!"
Lambo stood up tall laughing merrily until the creepy girl picked him up by the horns. Curiously, she inspected the baby. "Your name is supposed to be Lambo right?" she asked blankly. "Then why are you a cow? Shouldn't you look more like a sheep or something?"
"Lambo-san is not a cow or a sheep!" The baby agued as he wriggled around trying to free himself but nothing worked.
"Really? You look like a cow to me," Yoshida playful joined in with a grin. "I mean you dress up as one and you even have horns like a little bull."
Muramatsu followed their lead; not wanting to be left out. "Hey I can kind of see the sheep. After all his hair is so fluffy and a curly like sheep wool and some sheep do have horns," he teased.
"AH! Lambo-san doesn't like you anymore. Lambo-san won't have meanie subordinates!" He screamed as he tried harder to shake off of Hazama's grasp. "Let go of Lambo-san you meanies!"
While the Terasaka gang massed around with the little cow Karma walked up to young Fuuta. He bent down and got up and personal to the little boy's face. "Hey you sure this little guy isn't your little brother? I can understand the other two but look at him." He placed his hands on the boy's cheeks and forced him to turn around to the class. Then he rested his chin on top of Fuuta's head and smiled widely, "With these cute eyes and pretty hair he could be your long lost brother," Karma mocked in a babyish tone.
"Karma," Tsuna moaned with a small blush. "We're not brothers honest."
"Awe really? But you both have such cute faces." He mocked and glanced at Fuuta. "What do you think, kid?"
Fuuta gazed back at the redhead. His eyes lost all life and turned completely blank. He got out a dark red book about half his size from the satchel he wore. The book appeared to open by itself and the pages magically flipped one after the other as Fuuta's hair defied gravity. That wasn't the only thing that defied gravity. It seemed like the whole classroom was caught in an anti-gravity field as everything from books to tables and even the students themselves were floating around screaming.
Then the door slid open. "Good day class. I'm sorry I'm a tad late but there was a sale for these delicious macaroons in France that I just couldn't miss," Korosensei explained as he entered the gravity field and was swept away with it. Even his freshly made macaroons were not spared as one by one the colourful treats flew out of the box. "My macaroons!" Korosensei shrieked as he tried to paddle towards them snatching back as many as he can. His body was turned upside down and he caught a glimpse of the disarray of his classroom. "What on Earth is going on here?"
"AH! Lambo-san is flying again!" Lambo cried as his eyes bulged out in fearful shock and his body spun round in circles. "Lambo-san is feeling very dizzy."
Doing a mid-air cart wheel nearby, I-pin said, "I-pin is flying too." As the two got close to one another Lambo's panicked arms caught hold of I-pins pony tail. "Lambo, let go of I-pin's hair," she asked in annoyance.
"Lambo-san doesn't want to," The cow baby cried as tears stared to form. They spun together in unison in this chaotic classroom.
"The hell is this?" Terasaka yelled as his body was knocked into a wall.
"Fuuta is doing one of his rankings," Gokudera explained as he kicked himself off the ceiling. "This sort of thing happens when he does it."
"Don't worry this don't last very long," Tsuna assured as he spun right by.
"Whoa," Yamamoto cheered as he swam to the other corner of the room. "This is so fun. It's like we're up in space."
"Yamamoto, as much as I do like your cheerful attitude I don't think it's time to be laughing in this sort of situation," Kayano semi scolded as she forced her skirt down while she was sideways.
"How is this even possible?" Nagisa asked as he was dragged to a corner. "What is this ranking thing?"
However, strangely enough Fuuta and Karma were the only things that didn't end up well going up. Karma tiled his head, "You ok there kid?"
Fuuta didn't response to his question and instead said: "Karma Akabane, rank 2 for most terrifying student in Japan."
The redhead smirked, "Number 2 eh? Who's number 1 then?"
"Probably me," Gokudera said quite smugly as he was spun upside down while his arms were cross as well as his legs.
Fuuta turned to him, "Hayato Gokudera rank 3 for most terrifying junior high student in Japan." He turned to the baseball freak, "And Takeshi Yamamoto is rank 5."
"What! I'm below Karma for what reason?" Gokudera spat as he clenched one of this fist.
"I'm in the top 5? Cool," Yamamoto cheered.
"Your undying loyalty to Tsuna and your geeky nature drops you down slightly," Fuuta replied in a monotone voice.
"Well fine. Then who's number one?"
Yamamoto rubbed his chin at the thought. "You think it's anyone we know?"
Tsuna joined his thinking, "Anyone we know?"
Suddenly, it hit them like frosted lighting. Clouds of fear and despair wrapped themselves around the three boys like a chilled blanket. It's him isn't it? They though at once as the chill of fear engulfed their bodies with overpowering might.
"So kid." Karma asked with a sly yet interested smirk, "Who is number 1?"
Fuuta looked back at him and whispered the name. "Kyoya Hibari."
'I'll bite you to death.'
The famous line echoed inside the boys' minds. I knew it they all thought.
Nervously, Yamamoto laughed and sweated slightly, "Well he certainly deserves the title."
"No augments here." Gokudera said in agreement.
"Hie," Little Tsuna cried as he spun round and round in a circle tightly packed as a ball.
"A friend of yours?" Sugino asked as he swam over to Yamamoto.
"Sort of." Yamamoto explained, "He's a student in our old school. In fact his head of the discipline committee if you do anything wrong to his precious Namimori he will in his words: 'bite you to death'. He is someone you do not want to mess with."
A dark chuckle escaped from the redhead's mouth. "Is that so? Sound like an interesting guy. Hey." He turned to the mafia trio with a cheshire cat smile complete with sharp teeth and evil eyes. They could have sworn he had a pair of devil horns and a tail to match. "You think you could introduce me?"
"HIIEE!" Tsuna screamed louder at the thought of those two ever meeting.
On the other hand, Gokudera just glared at the boy. "Karma if you are going to do what I think you're going to do just drop it right now. There's no way you can beat him. He's way out of your league."
"Oh come on, Gokudera. I'm just curious that's all." That's what his mouth said but the look in his eyes tells another story.
Back with Fuuta, his attention turned to a flying blue haired boy. He walked off to meet him which caused Karma to be pulled up into the anti-gravity field. Fuuta got closer and Nagisa was gently placed back on solid ground. "Nagisa Shiota," he addressed, "Rank 2 for most deceiving innocent face for a junior high student."
The boy blinked in confusion. "Ok then?"
"Rank 1 Tsunayoshi Sawada."
"Really?" Tsuna questioned as he spun in closer. "I'm not so sure how to feel about that." He laughed. "Now as much as it's fun to fly around like this and letting you rank everything and all but you mind stopping now. You must be getting tired and I wouldn't want you to over work yourself," he asked politely and gazed around the zero gravity classroom. He stopped at very green cow in the mist of the mess of floating objects and his classmates. "That and Lambo looks like he's about to get stick."
Fuuta nodded once and slowly everything met the safety of the ground. The boy smiled apologetically, "Sorry about that. Sometimes I can't really control my powers so well."
"Dude, that was awesome," Maehara cheered. "But what the heck is this ranking business and how did it stop the laws of gravity?"
"It's just kind of an after effect. Even I don't fully understand how it works. I just know the information I gather to make the ranking comes from Ranking Planet and it's almost never wrong. In fact there was only one account when it is proven wrong." He smiled at his older brother figure. "And that's when it rains like when I met big brother Tsuna." Tsuna gazed at the ground while rubbing the back of his head as the class stared at him in wonder. Then the child presented his ranking book to the class. "I place all ranks and information in here for safe keeping. If this information ever gets caught in the wrong hands it could spell trouble."
Meekly, Okuda spoke up, "That seem kind of out there. Don't you think?"
Kataoka nodded with her, "Yeah but then again somehow Tsuna is a mafia boss and the world's greatest hitman is a five year old baby. Life is sure full of strange things." Suddenly, something plopped onto her head. She took a closer look at it. "A macaroon?" she wonder as she stared confused at the disk like treat. "Where did this come from?"
"Ah ha!" Lambo cheered as he also found a delicious macaroon lying on the ground. "Lambo-san found a macaroon!" He opened his mouth wide but before he could take a bite I-pin interrupted him.
"Lambo, no. Not yours," she tried to appeal to his better conscience.
Unluckily for her, Lambo is a mischievous rascal who doesn't care about anything he says. He smirked slyly at the girl, "It's Lambo-san' now." In one massive bite he swallowed the mouth-watering treat whole.
"Lambo!"
"In all seriousness guys where did these thing come from?" Isogai questioned as he found another one on the floor.
Then they heard weeping at the other side of the teacher's desk. Slowly, they crept closer to see what it was all about. There they saw their octopus teacher kneeling down in defeat crying over a small, pink cardboard box with only two macaroons left inside. His tears were a never ending water fall; he hasn't felt this depress since Karma stole his gelato. "My macaroons," he sobbed. "It will take another week or two of pay to get another box for a normal price. Why did this have to happen on a sales day?" He sniffed, "Well at least I was able to save some."
But those precious macaroons won't be safe for very long as a certain cow baby wondered to the box. He never paid attention to the weeping octopus as he happily grabbed the box. "More yummy treats for Lambo-san." He declared as he grabbed the box and tilted the contents into his mouth like a dumper truck with garbage bins.
It took a whole minute for Korosensei to understand what just happened. "NEAH!" He shrieked in horror. "You ate all of my macaroons. Get over here you baby cow thing." With raging eyes and lighting fast tentacles, Korosensei wrapped Lambo up tight. He glared at the child who looked like he was about to wet his pants. "It's not nice to take other peoples' macaroons," he whispered menacingly looking more and more like a monster. Then he looked at his class and saw the other surprised little visitors. "Oh dearie me. Sorry for the frightening scene, children. I see we have visitors."
"Oh," I-pin whispered in horror concern. In front of her was an unknown thing that has taken her best friend hostage. With her poor eye sight and childish imagination she made an image in her head. It wasn't a yellow smiley face beach ball on an octopus body like what everyone else sees. It was a terrifying faced deep fried octopus ball, topped with a helping of dark Worcestershire sauce, drizzled with a squiggled of mayonnaise and garnished of Bonitos shavings. "Takoyaki monster!" she yelled and pointed at the octopus.
"Takoyaki monster?" Korosensei asked confused.
The little girl pounced on top of the table and got into an attack pose. "I-pin will save Lambo from Takoyaki monster," she promised. She got out a dumpling of sorts then she took a single bite and punched the air. This released a powder of white that blasted Korosensei's face.
On impact Korosensei screamed and dropped the terrified cow baby. He held his eyes in pain. "What is this?" He gave the air a little sniff. "Is this garlic?"
"Huh-ah!" I-pin chanted as she swayed her arms around. With that Korosensei's body moved along with them and he had absolutely no control. "Take this!" I-pin started to throw him around like a rag doll.
"What is happening!?" he screamed.
At this time the class was screaming the exact same question and Lambo was trying to stand. "Gotta be calm," he whispered to himself as he wiped his tears away. "AH!" he screamed as he got out a rapid fire gatling gun from his afro. Just how the heck does he have that in there? "Lambo don't need help form tail head. Lambo will fight Takoyaki monster himself." Randomly, he shot the gun with no remorse as tears fell from his eyes. The class was in absolute chaos once more as the students screamed in fright running round for protection. Some of them stayed still and close to the ground with arms over their heads. They were close to getting hit. This made a certain two very mad.
The gun was quickly snatched away from the cow baby in an aggressive manner. "Lambo," yelled a voice. "You shouldn't shoot guns in class!" That voice belonged to a very cross Tsuna. "It's one thing to shot at me it's another to shoot innocent people. That is something I won't tolerate." Lambo has rarely seen this side of Tsuna before and he was petrified so much that his knees weaken. He fell on his behind with tears about to fall.
Another much darker force loomed over the child. "I must agree with Tsuna. I will not allow any harm done to my students slide easily." Korosensei's head was slightly black as he said these words, "Don't think because your just a child I will let you off the hook." He held out one tentacle and a sludge of silver dripped off the side. "Luckily, for you I was able to melt down any critical hit bullets so no one got hurt. This time."
Lambo was stuck between a rock and a hard place or in this case a young mafia boss and an alien like octopus. Things didn't look too bright for him until I-pin came to his rescue. "No, Tsuna gege." She stood between Lambo and Tsuna arms wide open. "Lambo didn't mean to hurt no one."
"Well he could have," Tsuna argued. "He needs to learn how to take responsibility for his actions. He can't stay a child forever and do whatever he wants. Especially, if that means hurting anyone and that means you too, I-pin." I-pin head shot up in shock. "You shouldn't jump to conclusion anyway. Lambo wasn't attacked by a Takoyaki monster. Granted he does look like an octopus it's just Korosensei. He's my teacher. He wouldn't have harmed him so there was no need to attack." Shamefully, she dropped her head.
"No this is all my fault," Fuuta admitted. "It was my idea to sneak into Bianchi's luggage in the first place to see you. If I hadn't have done that this wouldn't have happen." He bowed deeply, "I'm so sorry."
"It's not me you should be apologising to." Tsuna glanced at the class completely in tatters.
Both Fuuta and I-pin bowed to them. "I'm sorry."
"I-pin very sorry too." She also turned to the octopus, "Sorry you too, Mr. Takoyaki monster."
"It's alright so long as no one was hurt I accept your apology. And please call me Korosensei," Korosensei insisted.
"Lambo," Firmly Tsuna called out his name as he glared at him with arms crossed. "Do you have anything you want to say?" The cow baby did nothing but sniffle. "Lambo!"
His sniffling grew louder. "Gotta stay calm." He couldn't hold it anymore and cried a rain of tears. Then he began to dig into his afro once more and through purple bazooka. "Stupid Tsuna!"
The bazooka knocked down the young mafia boss and crashed on to the floor. Little shocks of lighting surged through the weapon. Luckily, Tsuna was caught by his two guardians although his storm was more concentrated on the cow baby. "How dare you do that to the Tenth? Apologise you stupid cow."
"You're stupid!" Lambo yelled back. "You're all a bunch of meanies." He ran crying towards the weapon he just threw and popped himself inside.
"No Lambo!" I-pin ran after him followed by Fuuta. They themselves crawled into the thing to try and catch Lambo. It didn't go as planned.
Poof! The class was filled with pink smoke. Three shadows formed from within. "My, My talk about bad timing," said a very chilled but mildly annoyed voice.
"Oh? What happened?" questioned a pretty chime voice.
The smoke cleared to revealed three strangers. One of them was a young man with leather sandals, sand colour trousers and an opened chest shirt with cow patch patterned edges. One of his eyes was lazily closed and his jet black hair was brushed back by his fingertips. "What a pain."
The other was a girl who seemed more energetic as she glanced around the room confused. She wore traditional chines garments with a red colouring along with white pants and black slippers. Her silk back hair was tied in to perfectly braided pigtails that casted down her shoulders. "Where are we?"
The last stranger wore a type of waiter's outfit and he held a sliver plate of bread loaves and a white cloth. It was a rather tall gentleman with chestnut brown hair and rounded eyes. A kind smile was place under his overly furry black moustache.
"It's Ten years later Lambo," Tsuna yelled.
"And Ten years later I-pin," Gokudera yelled with him.
"And some waiter guy," Yamamoto joined in.
But that was no waiter. That big moustache couldn't fool Tsuna. He recognised him the second he saw him with those brown eyes and familiar haircut. Only one question came to mind. What is !0 years later Fuuta doing in a waiter's uniform?
"Hey young Vongola, it's been awhile," the older Lambo greeted.
"What are you three doing here?"
"Well Lambo invited me for dinner and then poof. We were here," older I-pin explained. Then she noticed the poorly disguised Fuuta. "Oh, Lambo look. The waiter came along with us."
The waiter laughed nervously, "What a strange predicament we all got into no?" He said in this weird French accent. Obviously fake.
"Yeah," Lambo laughed nervously with him.
"But Fuuta went in there too right? So in all logic states the person who would be with you will be Ten years later Fuuta not some random waiter," Gokudera commented as he tried to solve 'mystery'.
Yamamoto scanned around. "Yeah where is future Fuuta?"
Oh come on guys! Tsuna screamed in his head. How can you not see it? He stared at the so called waiter as a bit of his moustache slipped down and was forced to push it up into place. It was a slight fail as now it look oddly crooked.
Lambo sighed and leaned back; arms crossed behind his head. "Well were stuck here for the next five minutes. Hope you don't mind, I-pin."
She nodded, "It's ok, Lambo. It's not that long."
"I hate to burst your bubble but…" Yamamoto picked up the Ten year bazooka that seemed to spark out like crazy. "This thing doesn't look so good." The minute he said that, the bazooka short-circuited and puffed up a cloud of smoke as if it was coughing in agony.
"Oh man what did that kid do?" Lambo growled as he inspected the weapon. "It doesn't look so bad but I have a feeling we'll be here a little longer than 5 minutes." The weapon then shook and disappeared in its own puff of pink smoke. "Make that a lot longer."
"Where did it go?" Gokudera wondered as he rubbed his chin.
Lambo answered, "My guess is it's with my younger self and the others. Sorry, I-pin, looks like we're stuck here for a while."
"That's fine but do you think our younger selves are ok?"
"Yeah as long as they're together they'll be fine. I'm almost certain that they made it to our timeline, so if anything happens to them I'm sure the others would take care of them. And we're together so that's a good thing. So long as Bianchi isn't around I'll be fine."
"Ah hate to burst your bubble again but Bianchi is kind of our chemistry teacher now. We just had a lesson with her not to long ago so I think she's still around," Yamamoto added.
With unsteady shocked eyes Lambo looked at the rain guardian and shakily said, "O-oh Rea-lly?" At that moment he went mad. "Lower down the hatches! Block all doors! Close all windows! Don't leave any openings unlocked!" The older cow yelled as he did everything he just said by himself with lightning haste and extreme panic. The class thought this guy is a loon. Finally, he stopped his reinforcing and slumped in a corner crying to himself. "Please don't see me. I don't want to die."
"Really?" Gokudera groaned as he put on a deadpan expression at the pathetic sight. The crowd around him shared his feeling as a sweat drop of confusion formed on their heads
"Well I don't really blame him." Tsuna supported, "Bianchi does want to kill him every time she sees him. I would be sacred too to be honest."
"Um I hate to be a downer but can you explain who these people are and what just happen in here?" Korosensei asked butting in between them. E class stood behind him nodding their heads.
And so began the long explanation on Fuuta's power of ranking and how he defies gravity when he does it. Then there was little I-pin and her knowledge of martial arts along with her special technique the Gyoza-Kempo / Fist she used on Korosensei. Then there's Lambo who, believe it or not, is also a hitman and is in possession of the Ten year bazooka. A device that could swap the present you with the you from ten years from now. That's who they're seeing now; the kids in ten years' time. Boy hit puberty treat them good.
"Whoa, Lambo, you sure gown." The boys were all huddled around the older Lambo very interested about this whole situation.
"I barely recognised you man."
He laughed at their praise and shock. "Well ten years can change a guy. Oh by the way I apologise for anything bad my younger self has done. I'm usually summoned if he gets himself into some sort of trouble."
"Well besides shooting us with a gun he doesn't seem so bad," Karma joined in. "A bit annoying but you know."
"Yeah I was really a pain when I was younger."
"So you're I-pin ten years from now?" The girls were all gather together around the still shy grown-up I-pin.
"You look really pretty."
She brushed off their complements, "Oh no I'm not that pretty."
"Really I think you're smoking," Maehara howled.
This got the attention of a certain cow. He slammed his hand on the boy's desk and loomed over him in irritation. "And what do you think you're doing, huh?" Lambo hissed with a calm tone. "If you're trying to flirt with her I suggest you give up. She's way out of your league."
"Well aren't you protective?" Karma laughed as he strolled in. "What are you? Her boyfriend?"
Immediately, older Lambo went red along with I-pin. "Uh…well…I'm…I-pin? A little help here?"
All eyes on her as she was put on the spot. "Uuhmm…well Lambo is a boy. And he is a good friend of mine. But I don't think he's my 'boyfriend' boyfriend. I guess. Right?"
It was Lambo's turn to be on the spot, "Well… yeah…I-pin is a girl. And she is a really good friend of mine too. But not my 'girlfriend' girlfriend …maybe… yeah…that's it." An awkward silence came down on the two of them as they quickly turned to glance at each other only to whip their heads right back now redder than tomatoes.
"Ooooh," Nakamura teased. "Is it me or is it getting a little hot in here." The class giggled along with her.
Barely, even visible Lambo raced to the side and grabbed his young boss along with his fellow guardians and older Fuuta. He then un-barricaded the door, threw them out and slammed the door behind him. "You guys got to help me."
"What's with you Stupid cow?" Gokudera growled. "Why'd you throw us out?"
"Look I'm sorry but I could really use some help here."
"What exactly do you need help with?" Yamamoto asked.
"It's about I-pin. She and I kind of have a strange relationship now and I honestly don't know what we are anymore. Are we a thing? Are we not? She's given me so many mixed signals I don't know what to believe anymore," he explained in a rapid pace.
"What Lambo is trying to say is that he really likes I-pin and he thinks she likes him." Fuuta reiterated as he took off his moustache. "But the thing is they're too shy to admit it to each other. It took Lambo so long to be brave enough to try and make it official on this date. But then you know."
"Fuuta, you were the waiter?" Both Gokudera and Yamamoto said in shock as Tsuna stood by them shaking his head. He was very tempted to face palm himself.
Future Fuuta smiled at them, "Yeah Lambo asked me to be his wingman for this and help him out. I had to disguise myself as a waiter."
"So what exactly do you want us to do?" Tsuna asked partly worried.
"I'm not asking much I just want some help on this date with I-pin. I rather not waste another opportunity and now that I'm here I need some protection from Bianchi. Otherwise this whole thing will be ruined." He bowed on the floor on hands and keens, "Please help a brother out. I really want things to go well with I-pin."
Tsuna gazed at the unusual sight in front of him. There's not much to say but it's really hard to believe seeing these two as kids, fighting and teasing each other, and now finding out that in the future they would potentially become boyfriend and girlfriend. It's pretty weird yet sweet. He sighed, "You really like her huh?"
With red cheeks Lambo nodded, "Yes, she means a lot to me."
Tsuna smiled confidently at the boy. Perhaps it wouldn't be such a bad idea to help him out and the more he thought about it those two do make quite a match. "Ok then we'll try to make this work somehow."
"You really think this would work?" Gokudera groaned doubtfully. "Future I-pin seems way too out of the stupid cow's league."
First shot made and Lambo jumped in pain.
"Don't say that, Gokudera," Yamamoto confronted. "I mean sure Lambo was annoying, extremely loud and always teased her when they were younger but that doesn't mean he's like that in the future. At least I don't think so."
Second shot made. It wasn't as strong as the first but it still hurt.
"Actually Lambo has become quite a playboy in the future," Fuuta explained. "He's dated a lot of girls before he settled his mind on I-pin."
"No way!"
Third shot did a number on him as his legs weaken and bend.
"Hold on wouldn't I-pin also have a lot of guys after her?" Tsuna wondered. "After all she's very pretty and does she still have a crush on Hibari?"
"Now that you mention it she might."
"That's not good. Hibari is tough competition. I don't think the stupid cow can beat that guy so easy."
FATALITY. Lambo lost all his strength and his face hits the floor. "I can't win can I?"
"Don't say that my boy." Que the dramatic octopus. "Don't you see? This is a once in a life time opportunity." Korosensei wrapped his tentacle onto the boy's hands and lifted him up back to his feet. He gazed into Lambo's very creeped-out eyes. "So what if the girl of your dreams has a crush on another man. That doesn't mean that he's her true love." He embraced the boy into his chest squeezing his head as close as possible. "Now you my boy you're different. You have known her since childhood and though things may have started out rough it has turned beautiful in the future as both of you bloomed into a fine young gentlemen and lady. And now you are beginning to notice each other more and more. Can this beautiful friendship bloom into something more? I believe so!"
Lambo raised an eyebrow at the sudden appearance of the octopus that held him uncomfortable close, "You really think I have a chance with her?"
"Of course," Korosensei answered. "Everyone deserves a chance on love and I believe you have it right now. With my help I guarantee that you and I-pin will be walking away hand in hand doing other couplely things."
"Don't forget us," sang a duo of mischievous voices. Karma and Nakamura peaked out of the class door with the others not too far behind. "We heard the entire thing. Count us in."
Worriedly, Lambo searched the crowd. "Don't worry," Nagisa assured. "We got I-pin distracted." He pointed back to the Chinese girl talking merrily with two other girls.
"Alright then it's time to prepare!" Korosensei announced. In that short space of time he found himself a military uniform along with a pair of angel's wings and a quiver with heart tip arrows. "Our mission today is to make sure this young man make gets the girl. Prepare your arrows of love my children it's time to play matchmaker." He held out a bow and heart arrow in the air and screamed, "Who's with me!"
"Yes sir!" His students answered and saluted.
"Lambo what's going on?" I-pin asked curiously.
He smiled back at her, "Nothing much but it looks like you and I are going to have the dinner date after all."
"Really?" she asked excitedly as her eyes seemed to sparkle. With such a sweet expression on her Lambo couldn't help but blush at the sight.
"Yes and right here no less," Korosensei added. "Now would you please take a step outside as we make the necessary preparation? Think of it as a sorry that young Lambo rudely interrupted in the first place." So I-pin was forced out along with Lambo to keep her company. Now that they're out of the way Korosensei marched up to the chalk board and marked down a battle plan. "Alright class we will need to work together to make this work. Now love isn't easy and so this battle will be difficult. But if we combine our skills together we can do this. Am I right?"
"Yes sir!" They said together in uniforms rows saluting to their octopus commander.
"Now first we need to sort out food. Tsuna!"
"Yes!"
"I'll leave you in charge of that. Terasaka, you and your group will be helping him." The boy was about to reject immediately but Korosensei beat him to it. "You four have shown a massive improvement in home economics for a while now. I believe you lot have the skills to make a fabulous meal. Hara! Kayano!"
"Yes?" asked the mildly chubby girl along with the short, green haired girl.
"You will join them as well. Your dessert making skills and knowledge would be a great asset. And before I forget. Muramatsu!" The bucktooth boy stood straight at his name call. "Since you have knowledge working in a kitchen in your family's ramen place I would like you to be Tsuna's sue chef."
"Yes sir!" And so they raced to the kitchen.
"Isogai!" The boy stepped up to his commander. "I'm going to need you and older Fuuta to be the waiters. You may choose two others to assist you. Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes sir!"
"The rest of you will need to spilt up into two groups. Group 1 will be with me. You'll be helping decorate this rotten classroom and make it look like a five star restaurant as well as participating in some form of entertainment. Group 2, you will be distracting my fellow faculty members if they choose to interrupt. You will have to split your group further one for each faculty member. However since there is no P.E today I don't think Reborn or Karasuma will cause too much trouble. They'll probably be busy doing whatever it is they do in their free time. That leaves Miss Irina and Bianchi, so spilt yourselves wisely for the task that best suits you. Understand?"
"Yes sir!"
"Karma! Nakamura!" The mischievous duo stepped up in saluted poses. "You two will lead the Distract Bianchi Squad. She'll likely be the most difficult to handle and with your mischievous minds and leadership I believe you're best suited to lead this team."
"Not so fast," interrupted a high pitch voice. Smoke puffed from nowhere as a tiny silhouette came out from it. "Don't forget little old me." It was Reborn in a very similar military cupid costume to Korosensei with the difference being he had a camouflage colour fedora and a gun with a heart stuck to the side. "I'm best suited when it comes to distracting Bianchi. After all she's head over heels for me. It would be easy for me to lead her away. What do you say?"
A dark smirk appeared on the two students faces. "I think it would be fun. We'll be working with the world's number one baby hitman. Now that would be interesting."
"Not to mention we'll be manipulating the heart of an older woman by using her baby man crush as perfect bait. Now that would be fun to see."
With conniving expressions they eagerly shook the hitman's hand. "You got yourself a deal."
"Alright then spilt your groups and let's start this battle!" The octopus cheered.
"Yes sir!"
With that they headed to their battle stations. Tsuna and his team were working hard on the meal. They asked Lambo and I-pin if there's anything in particular they would like and they could do in their limited time, ingredients and skills. It also took everything the class got to forcefully convince Gokudera not to join them in fear of the kitchen blowing up again. He ended up on the distract Bianchi squad to his dismay. Meanwhile, Yamamoto ended up with the decorating squad that consisted mainly of girls. Korosensei and him were the only men and so they ended up with most of the heavy lifting. However Korosensei doubled as an errand boy fetching items the girls needed from wherever he could find them. The distracting Irina squad consisted of her top two girls- Yada and Kurahashi as well as Nagisa. I mean who can say no to his face and Irina trusts her favourites best. Within thirty minutes or so the preparations were complete.
Lambo and I-pin, who were so patiently waiting outside, were finally called in. As they opened the doors a flurry of rose pelts spun out. They were blinded with a refreshing light; through it were the images of a single table and chairs along with four shadows. "Welcome," the shadows greeted. As the light faded they met them- their four waiters. They bowed in greeting.
The classroom was so finely decorated they could barely believe it was the same place. In fact the only thing that resembled the old classroom was the chalk board that still had some writing on and the students' equipment and desks were hidden behind a sheet over to the back. Even the bullet holes younger Lambo made earlier vanished thanks to the placement of beautiful red roses in each hole. Their wonderful sent also eliminated the scent of gun powder. "Wow these kids did a pretty good job."
"Your table awaits you," the eldest waiter escorted the two of them to their seats while two of his younger male companions drew out their seats and tucked them in.
The only girl in the group was ready with a pen and notepad. "Welcome, I'm Kataoka and my companions here we'll be your waiters on this fine day. Is there anything I can get for you?"
"Water would be nice please."
"Me too and with ice in both."
"Two Glasses of iced water coming up." She faced her classmates, "Isogai, Maehara, do you mind getting the starters sorted as well?" The boys nodded and the three of them took their leave.
"Is there anything else you need?" They shook their heads and declined. "Very well then I too shall take my leave." The older waiter left but not before giving his friend a thumbs up for good luck.
Lambo smiled and gave a thumbs up back before turning his attention to his main target. "So what do you think?"
"This place looks so beautiful," I-pin complemented enthusiastically. "Everything is so well decorated it's hard to believe this is a classroom. To be honest I feel a little too spoiled having these kids do so much work for us."
"A beautiful girl like you deserves to be spoiled once and awhile," the boy teased.
"Oh stop it," I-pin giggled but her happiness turned to worry. "Do you think our younger selves are ok?"
Heavily, Lambo sighed in response. "I'm sure they're ok and baby me has you and Fuuta looking out for him," he assured. "Sorry for causing you so much trouble especially when I was younger."
"No problem. At least things were never boring when you're around." She laughed.
"Yeah." He laughed with her, cheeks flushed lightly. "Thanks for staying with me all these years."
I-pin blushed too and whispered, "Of course."
Meanwhile in the future…
"This food is so yummy yummy." Little Lambo greedily scoffed the food down on his plate.
"Lambo! That not yours," I-pin rejected but of course he never listened.
"Uh guys, do you have any idea where we are?" Fuuta wondered very confused.
Lazily, Lambo slumped down in his chair and yawned while picking his nose. "Don't know. Somewhere in the future or something. That's what they told me if I ever use my bazooka thing."
"Oh so this is the future." Fuuta looked around in wonder.
"Lambo!" Screamed a very annoyed voice. "Where are you stupid cow!?" Stomping into the restaurant was a man in a black suit with a strange but familiar face. "Stupid cow!" He called out again. His sharp eyes noticed the kids and he was riled up even more. "There you are." He grabbed the baby cow and he screamed, "Stupid cow, you just had to summon your older self now of all times!? We have an important meeting to go to and all guardians must be accounted for!" He let out his frustration out by stretched out the baby cow's cheeks.
"Let go, Stupidera!" The cow baby said barely audible.
"Don't you 'Stupidera' me!" He yelled, "When are you going to learn to fight your own battles?"
"Ma ma, Gokudera," said a new laid back voice. "Don't be so hard on the little guy. He got scared easily when he was young." Another familiar faced man in a suit stepped in. He strolled over and rescued the little cow. "Sorry about that, little Lambo."
"You're too soft on him, baseball idiot"
"Gokudera and Yamamoto!" The other two children yelled.
"Oh, Fuuta, I-pin, you're here too?" The older rain guardian smiled. "How are you two?"
"We're fine but if my memory is correct we're supposed to swap with our future selves for only 5 minutes. I think we've been here for more," Fuuta explained.
Then little I-pin noticed something sparking under the table. "It's Lambo's bazooka."
"That doesn't look good." Yamamoto inspected the weapon. "Looks busted."
Rage grew within the storm as he once again tortured young Lambo. "Stupid cow, what did you do?"
"Now, now, Gokudera, there's no need for you to do that," said a new gentle voice. "Please let him down." The storm did as told and dropped the crying cow. "Don't cry little one." A shadow with spiked hair loomed over them. They stared at the new comer with wide eyes. "What's wrong? Are you surprised?"
Pink silk ribbons danced in the air as they were manipulated by a single wrist flick. The class' best gymnast found herself in a knee length, wide skirt kimono dress. It was the colour of crimson decorated with peony flowers in full bloom and a few humming birds here and there. The girl gracefully galloped across the stage with a spin in her step. Her ribbon followed her perfectly in time with the tradition Chinese style music in the background. However she was not alone as her other teammates twirled their own ribbons in the side-lines as supporting dancers. They stayed in their own spot with smiles on their face as she watched their friend steal the show with her elegances. The music slowly came to an end as she gently knelt down and bowed her head.
"That was wonderful," the two audience members cheered as the clapped. The girls each took to front stage and bowed together in the praise.
"They seem to be having a lot of fun," Yamamoto laughed.
"Indeed truly a graceful bunch," Korosensei agreed.
Then the door silently opened as two boys headed in, "Reporting, Commander Korosensei!"
"Ah Nagisa, Okajima what is the situation?"
Nagisa stepped first, "Sir, Professor Bitch is completely distracted for now. We managed to trick her into helping us answer some chemistry questions. Once we started to compare her to Miss Bianchi it was pretty easy." The boy let out a silent giggle as he remembered the Bitch's constipated, angered face when they said that Bianchi was the better teacher. She snatched those questions papers faster than Korosensei can get his special mofu tofu form China. "Also I scouted out Mr Karasuma and he seems to be busy doing something on his computer. He's most likely sorting out our next training schedules."
The octopus nodded his head while rubbing his chin. "I see and what do you have to report Okajima?"
The boy straightened himself up and responded, "Sir, with Mr Reborn's plan we were able to trick Miss Bianchi to play a game of tag. She is currently chasing after Mr Reborn all over the mountain trying to tag him. The rest of us are doing everything we can to slow her down whether it's making obstacles or covering Mr Reborn's tracks. Gokudera has played a main role however by misguiding her when he can. Also Mr Reborn managed to convince her to wear her goggles so Gokudera won't faint," he explained and then remembered something important. "Oh before I forget Tsuna told me that the main course is ready to be severed and you can bring the waiters in now."
"Fantastic I'll go tell them now."
"No need sir," Isogai interrupted. "We got them ready." His fellow waiters made their way to the maybe couple's table. "Here you go sir your Chicken Katsu with special fried rice." He placed down the plate of perfectly crisped, sliced, breaded, chicken breast pieces and beautifully coloured rice with vegetables, shredded scrambled eggs and plumped baby shrimp. Not to forget the amateur but still well done ketchup swirl markings around the plain plate.
"And for you madam, Miso Salmon with plain rice and a side salad," Kataoka placed down her plate of well boiled pink salmon topped with crushed pepper corn garnish and a rosemary leaf. With it was a steaming cupped bowl of pure white rice. Not to ignore the crispy green lettuce leaves, crunchy sliced flower carrots, juicy baby tomatoes and a bit of shredded chicken pieces as the salad.
"And for you two to share: a bowl of freshly made takoyaki," Maehara presented a piping hot bowl of the delectable octopus balls before the two of them. They were perfectly browned and crisped, decorated with thinly chopped chives and drizzled with a special sauce. There were also a few flower buds to enhance the presentation.
The young waiters bowed, "Enjoy."
"We will," they assured as they quickly dug into their meal- mouth watered at the intense flavour.
"Perfect now I can do my performance," Korosensei gleamed with joy. "Would you like to stay and watch me shine, Nagisa and you as well Okajima?" The boys shook their heads and told him that they really should be getting back to their own stations. "Very well your loss." In a blink of an eye, he was already up on stage with a mic in his tentacles. "Lady and gentleman I will be your next performer. For this next act I will serenade you with a special song I made for my students a while back."
The remaining students in the room had an aching suspicion on what it was. He's not going to sing what I think he's going to sing.
"This catchy number was something I came up with to help my students learn how to use a map, as well as thinking out of the box. It fact…," he pulled down a world map as a background drop "… I'll need this to prove my point."
He is.
A playful piano played in the background as he began to sing while swaying to the timing of the music: "First you take the planet earth, round and blue and green. And floating over Tokyo you drop a giant bean~". To make his point he popped a black dot over the map on Tokyo. Then he spun while singing the next line and placed the next dot on it spot. "Put another one in Sichuan China what a shine. Taking off from Dubai to Hawaii at Mach 20 leave contrails as you fly~" He marked the flight pattern very clearly as he happy sang the rest of his song. "Double back across the southern hemisphere over the Philippines once again to well Dubai. AND THEN…Back to Hawaii drawing lines of latitude every 25 degrees along the way." He finished his master piece and turned back to the audience and sung his final line with all his heart, "And there you have it. Korosensei~" There on the map was a prefect drawing of his own face. "Now sing it with me kids!"
"NO!"
The audience chuckled at the humours act. "How silly," I-pin giggled.
Korosensei blushed slightly form their praise and turned to the final performer. "Well at least someone appreciates my work. Now Yamamoto, it's your turn. Break a leg."
"Actually I would like some time with I-pin here on my own for a while first if you don't mind," Lambo asked still with uncertainly lingering in his voice. "So how's about it Yamamoto?"
The boy replied with his signature smile. "Sure I don't mind at all. Besides…" He took out a baseball bat from somewhere and placed it on his head upright. It balanced perfectly steady. "I was just going to balance this as long as I can so you're not missing much. Not really as impressive as the others." Lambo nodded in understanding as he turned away to hold in the laugh at how ridiculous he looked. "Well then we'll get out of your hair. Come on guys." They hurriedly fled out the door not wanting to intrude on this very important talk.
But before Fuuta took his leave, Lambo stopped him. He dragged him down to his level and whispered in his ear, "Do you have some last minute advice?"
He stared at the slightly sweaty young man jittering in his boots. Then he turned the confused Chinese girl childishly titled her head. He smiled at his friend and patted his shoulder in comfort. "You'll be fine. Just tell her how you feel. Whatever the outcome I'll be right by you."
"Oh that makes me feels so much better," Lambo whined sarcastically. They waved each other farewell for now before concentrating on the target at hand. "Well…this was nice"
"Ah-huh."
"Everyone has done a really good job."
"Yeah."
"…" that's all they said for the next ten minutes or so.
Eventually, Lambo became brave enough to break the silence as he was becoming sick of it. "Look this is kind of hard for me to say but…uh…Hey how long have we known each other?" But his nerves got the best of him and so he changed the subject.
"For a while know. Since we were kids," I-pin replied as she thought back to the old days. "Remember the first day we met? I thought you were some sort of broccoli monster." They both laughed at the old memory. Back when Lambo still had his massive black afro. "I've been meaning to ask what ever did happen to your hair?"
The boy shrugged. "Don't know. It just gradually straightened itself out. It came to a point where it was too long so I just cut it down to size." Mischievously, he eyed the girl before him. "And what about you? What happened to that melon head of yours?"
"Melon head!" She gasped offended as an image of an oval watermelon blinked over her face. She swiftly turned away for him and puffed out her cheeks. "How should I know? Maybe it just grew out like that or something."
"Oh come on I-pin don't be mad. You looked really adorable back then." He tried to make amends as quickly as possible. "And now you've become this beautiful flower," he said earnestly as he flashed a sweet, gentleman like smile at her.
His soft tone voice and alluring eyes made her look back slightly. "Well you're not so bad yourself." Surprised by her sudden words Lambo's eyes widen as he titled his head in wonder. Flustered, I-pin waved her arms about randomly, as she tried to hide her brightly flushed face. "I-I-I mean that…Umm… that's what I've heard from others girls. Yeah… they really seem to like you and think you're cool. So you must be doing something right to get their attention." She looked down at the table not wanting to look at him. "I can't really blame them either."
"I see." Lambo just stared at her and can sense a type of sadness in her voice. "A lot has changed in ten years. Just look at Tsuna and everyone else for that matter. Even us."
"Change is an essential thing of life," she added. "Without change how can we better ourselves and move forward to the future?"
"You have a point," his voice slightly cracked. "But change can also be a scary thing don't you think?" He placed his elbows on the table and cupped his hands while resting his forehead against them. "You don't know what's going to happen next whether it's good or bad. Listen, I-pin, I've wanted to tell you something for a really long time but I've been too much of a coward to say anything. This will probably change a lot of things for us. For all I know you might even leave me and we won't be friends anymore."
Something cracked the moment he said those last few words. That something was I-pin's heart. Hastily, she grabbed Lambo's hand and forced him to look at her with those moist eyes of his. "How could you say that?" She cried as tears also welled up in the corner of her eyes. "Lambo, you're my best friend. I love you too much to ever leave you!"
His heart skipped a beat or two. He grinned, "Are you being serious with me, I-pin?" He reached out to her and cupped her cheek. "Can you promise me no matter what happens next you'll still be my best friend?" She nodded without hesitation. "Well then I can't back down now huh? I-pin, I…"
Suddenly, something flew over their heads and crashed onto the wall. It appeared to be some sort of serving plate. Like snow in fire it quickly melted the wall away forming a new window. On the other side was Korosensei and his students screaming: "What the hell?"
Only one word crossed Lambo's mind- Crap.
"Romeo!" yelled a feminine voice. A demonic like aura came seeping into the room from the window. This aura was emitted by none other than Bianchi wearing a pair of goggles and both hands clenched tight till they were white. "So you're cheating again with another woman I see, "she said with a mixture of calm spite. "Well that gives me more of a reason to kill you." She held out two platters fill with who knows what. "Die."
In a panic Lambo kissed the back of I-pin's hand. "I-pin, I do love our times together but because I don't want to die today I must cut this short." With that he ran like the wind with Bianchi close behind. "WWHAAA!"
I-pin was left alone, still as a statue, with her hand still out. She blinked a couple of times to try and comprehend what just happened. "What?"
Then Karma came rushing by an opened window. "What the hell just happened? Bianchi just suddenly ran in here."
Gokudera came rushing by next. "Please don't tell me she saw Lambo."
"Actually yes that's exactly what happened," Yamamoto replied with a laugh. "But for some reason she called him 'Romeo'. Any idea why?"
"Romeo is my sis's ex. They didn't really have a good relationship and she hates his guts. However future Lambo looks almost look exactly like him. So every time she sees him she thinks he's Romeo. That's why she wants to kill him every time," Gokudera explains hastily.
"What's going on?" Reborn randomly appeared on Karma's head with an irritable expression. "Why did Bianchi just stop her pursuit? She was so determined too." He stared at the speechless class. "Don't tell me she saw Lambo." They all dumbly nodded their heads. "Well this is getting me interesting," he smirked.
"HIIIIEEE!" Screamed out a high pitched voice that can only belong to one person.
"Tsuna!" They yelled in panicked.
However, Gokudera was way ahead of the crowd as he jumped into the classroom. Then he raced to the home-ec room screaming: "Tenth!" Yamamoto was quick to follow and soon everyone else followed. With the strength of a truck Gokudera smashed the door down. "Sis! What did you do to the Tenth?" But they were already too late the damage was done. The kitchen was in disarray with splashes of sauces and scattered reminds of food everywhere form the floors to the walls and even the ceiling. The tables and some utensils were melted down by some sort of purple residue. Terasaka and his team were down and out, Kayano was grieving over something with Hara comforting her but Tsuna was nowhere in sight. "What happened?"
"Your wack job of a sister came busting through here chasing Lambo," Terasaka groaned as he tried to lift himself up. "They pretty much wrecked the whole place."
"Never mind that! Where's the Tenth?" Gokudera demanded.
"They killed him!" Kayano wailed.
"What!?" Gokudera grabbed hold of the crying girl and shook her around like mad. "What do you mean they killed the Tenth?"
After she shook off the feeling of dizziness, her spiral eyes turned to normal and she growled at the mafia boy in front of her. She looked as if she wanted to slap him. "Who say anything about a Tenth!" She yelled in offence, "I was talking about Mr. Whiskers!" She pointed to the splattered pieces of sweetness on the floor. Then she once again dropped to her keens and wept over the remains of 'Mr. Whiskers'. "Rest in peace Mr. Whiskers."
"Don't you mean pieces?" Karma chuckled.
"Shut up, Karma!"
For anyone still confused Hara explained that she and Kayano were using this new kitty cat baking moulder she found. So they made a strawberry short cake kitty cat with cute fruity face features and whipped cream icing. The kitty cake turned out so well and adorable that Kayano dubbed it Mr. Whiskers for its lickerish whiskers and it was a cat cake. What other names could they have used? They were about to deliver their master piece when Lambo came running in along with Bianchi. They knocked the girls over and Mr. Whiskers was sent flying to their doom. Hara patted the distressed girl, "Come on, Kayano. We can make another Mr. Whiskers some other time."
"It won't be the same," she wined at the top of her voice.
"Forget about the stupid cake! Where's the Tenth?"
Knock, knock, knock rang a noise from somewhere. The noise came again and again. They narrowed it down to a small cupboard under the sink. Slowly, they surrounded the cupboard and out of curiosity Yamamoto knocked on the door. Right after that something knocked back. Even more curious they decided to open the cupboard and were greeted by an unusual sight. "Hi guys how are things?"
"Tsuna!" Most screamed at once. Right there cramped up with some pots and cleaning supplies was little Tsuna; body tangled and snugged in uncomfortable his surroundings. "How did you get in there?"
Little Tsuna laughed nervously, "Well there was a little bit of a spillage so I wanted to get something to clean it up. Then something pushed me in here and well this happen," he explained shameful. "Do you mind helping me out of here?"
"We got you." Both his guardians managed to pry him out of his tight situation.
"How could this have happened?" Reborn asked slightly annoyed yet entertained by this sudden turn of events. "I thought Lambo made sure there were no blind spots and every opening was hidden."
"Well there was an opened window." Karma commented. "Maybe Bianchi spotted him through it?"
"That's impossible," Gokudera rejected. "Lambo made sure to close all windows and a saw to it that most of the windows were covered by curtains. Expect for the one we went through…wait." He thought deeper about the current conundrum. "If someone opened the window after then she could see." He glared down at the possible guilty party. "Alright which one of you idiots did it?"
They all looked at each other with jumbled and questionable eyes but no one admitted to the crime. As they eyed each other and whisper integrations a yellow octopus tried to slip away unnoticed. But his students were too sharp. "Korosensei? Do you have something to say?"
With no chance to escape without suspicion he had no choice but to face his students. "Well I may or may not have opened a window slightly because I may or may not have thought it was getting a little stuffy." He guiltily admitted somewhat while looked at his twirling tentacles.
"Korosensei!"
Slap! The octopus was forced down by the baby hitman. "You fool!" Relentlessly, Reborn stomped on Korosensei's head with no remorse. "Thanks' to you the whole operation is ruined. And here I thought you would actually pull it off. I should have known better." He kept kicking the poor Korosensei on the head as if it was a football.
"I'm." Stomp! "Sorry." Stomp! "Please." Stomp! "Stop!"
Now bored Reborn's attention turned to his young student. "It's all up to you now, Tsuna. You must be the one to save Lambo."
"Why me?" He whined.
"Because they are a part of your family and as boss you must stop them."
But I don't want to. He cried waterfalls and wondered what he did to ever deserve this. Then a shoulder tap disrupted his thoughts.
He turned to meet the sadly wide-eyed I-pin. "Sawada-san, please," she begged with hands in prayer. "I don't really understand everything going on now. But I do know one thing- Lambo really needs our help now. Maybe if we can convince Bianchi that he's not this Romeo everyone can get along. So please?"
He stared deeply into her begging eyes. "I-pin."
"If you deny the words of a woman how can you call yourself a man let alone a mafia boss?" Reborn said slyly as he sneaked into frame. "Especially, a lady with that kind of face." There was a very dominant and unmistaken click in the background. There was nowhere to run for the poor boy. One way or another Reborn will get his way.
Bang! At that moment Tsuna was sent to the floor. With a gun his in hand Reborn snickered at a job well done until Korosensei grabbed him by the neck. "What did you do?" He whispered filled with killing intent. However Reborn was unphased as he held out a hand with three fingers. With them he counted down: 3…2…1.
"REBORN!" Tsuna screamed as he was raised form the dead. All his clothes combusted into nothing as he yelled, "I WILL SAVE LAMBO WITH MY DYING WILL!" In a blink of an eye, he was off leaving the class and octopus shell shocked.
Causally, Reborn freed himself form Korosensei's clutches and strolled over to the remaining family members. "What are you all waiting for? We have a cow to save." Without further delay: I-pin, Gokudera, Yamamoto and Fuuta still in disguise followed the baby and the underwear only Tsuna.
E-class was still stuck in a frozen position lost for word. That is until Karma took centre stage. "Well if no one going to say it let me do the honours. Ahem. WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED AND WHY IS TUSNA IN HIS UNDERWESR!" He screamed at the top of his lungs before asking, "Well now that's out of the way should we follow them?"
Back with poor Lambo, he was still running for his life from the poison lady that wants him dead. How did I get along with you in the future? He wondered as he opened a random door and hid inside. He blocked the door with his own body and slid down panting all the way. He took a long breathe. He scanned surroundings and spotted three confused E-class students: Nagisa and the girls as well as their bitch of a teacher pulling out her hair while staring at a question paper. He put on a nervous smile. "Hey."
"Lambo, what are you doing here?" Nagisa asked in a whisper so not to disturb Irina.
"Yeah how are things going with I-pin?" The girls questioned quite excitedly.
"Well let's just say we have a small problem." The moment he said that, the door was violently knocked behind him. "Help me," he begged in a terrified squeaky voice. The students complied and helped him block the door with their bodies and some bits and bobs they could grab like a chair.
The banging just continued. "Will you keep it down back there I'm trying to think!" Irina yelled irritated still on the first question. "Now what mass of sodium chloride is produced when 5.3g of sodium carbonate reacts with excess dilute hydrochloric acid?...uh…What's hydrochloric acid made of again?" She was trying so hard to answer the question and prove she was better than Bianchi. Her train of thought was disrupted once again by that banging noise. With raging eyes and gritted teeth she turned around and scolded, "Shut up will you!"
Smash! The banging stopped as a fist came through the door. It was recalled back and was replaced by the demonic face of Bianchi. She glared at the students through her goggles that dared to stop her but honed onto the shaking Lambo. Actually thanks to those goggles she somehow looked more menacing like some masked killer or something. "Romeo," she whispered in a demonic fashion. "Die." With that the door was completely smashed apart. Bianchi came storming and threw a bunch of purple food platters everywhere in hopes one will hit her 'Romeo'.
The students scattered for cover while Lambo dodged for his life. Unfortunately, one of those food platters hit Irina's desk melting the question papers and the entire top of the desk with it. "Hey I was just about to answer that!" She claimed but was ignored. After all once a hitwoman finds her target she won't let go so easily.
"Poison cooking!" Bianchi reloaded her stock and shot them with no mercy to the defenceless Lambo. However it seemed to be a blessing in disguise as a massive hole to the next room was made. Taking the opportunity, Lambo hopped into the hole. Of course Bianchi followed suit. "Romeo!"
"The hell is wrong with her?" Irina spat.
Then someone came rushing into the party. "BIANCHI!" Tsuna was on fire literally and almost naked. The girls were so freaked out at the sight they screamed and covered their eyes. Only Nagisa was somewhat calm since he had already seen this side of Tsuna. He pointed at the hole in the wall and Tsuna nodded in thanks before jumping right in.
"Tenth!" Gokudera soon followed.
"Lambo!" I-pin extremely worried for her friend also jumped in.
"Hey guys what game are we playing now? Tag?" Yamamoto enjoying this grand chase laughed and joined into the scuffle.
"What the?" yelled a familiar military voice.
Let the madness begin.
The hole acted as a window to this odd battle as war dust clouds appeared out of nowhere. Things were flying everywhere: Books, papers, trash pieces you name it its flying. Screams and yells where muddled into the chaos barely heard. No one knew what the hell was going on in there.
Then something popped out of the cloud. "You're not Romeo." It was Bianchi holing the neck of a very furious and confused Karasuma.
"What is going on here?" He was left unanswered as they were dragged back to the fray.
Then someone else popped up. "No not Lambo."
"Oh Hi, I-pin," Yamamoto greeted happily. "This is pretty fun." Once again they were dragged back down.
Another duo popped up. "NOT BIANCHI!" It was Tsuna and a very green and worn out Lambo. "ARGH!" He plopped him back in and dived himself back.
Another pair popped up. "Who are you?" It was Karasuma shaking the life out the cow.
"Please… I just want this to be over." His prayers were unanswered and they were dragged back in.
Right after another pair popped up. "Sis, stop this!"
"Let me go, Hayato." She struggled but they were ultimately dragged back down.
This whole thing doesn't seem to be stopping anything soon. However, there did seem to be one person who was able to escape. He crawled out into the corridor and sighed thinking he was safe. "Romeo!" Of course he wasn't. And so once again it was a chase with Lambo being the chased, Bianchi the chaser and Tsuna and the other's trying to be the chaser capturers. This is pretty much just a normal day for them.
"Alright." Rising form the ashes of the chaos, Karasuma lifted himself up. "I have some questions for you. One: Who was that guy? Two: Why is Tsuna running around in his underwear? And three…" He slammed his fist into the wall. With a beastly like face he growled and glared at the remaining people. "What did Bianchi threw at my computer!" He presented his laptop now with a hole melted in the centre. "I just got this damn it!"
"Well this was more entertaining than I thought." Reborn appeared right beside the battered military man with a drink to refresh himself.
Karasuma glared at the casually calm hitman. "I should have known you mafia were behind this."
"No need to be so salty."
"Alright, spill. What's going on here? And why is my precious angel running around in his underwear?" Irina demanded her patience drawing thin.
"No need to worry this is more or less normal for us."
"What part of this is normal?" they yelled in denial.
"Guys I think they when this way." Karma along with a regrouped E-class were running down the hallways in search of Lambo and everyone else. "Come on follow the flame headed kid." They kept on their chase and as they were coming by Reborn hitched a ride on Karma's head. The remaining students immediately joined into the party. As for the teachers they tagged along form behind.
Everyone joined the chase expect for one octopus. If anyone is wondering what was he up to. He was still frozen in shock in the home-ec room. He stood there still as a log. Visions filled his mind as a cold chill ran down is spine. "Did I saw what I think I just saw?"
Meanwhile, back at the chase, Bianchi was still hot on Lambo's tail. However, Tsuna slowly caught up to her and actually did catch her. He pounced and dragged her down with him. "STOP NOW! BIANCHI!" he ordered.
But Bianchi didn't listen and tried to struggle free. "Let me go right now!" She growled, "Romeo!"
Lambo ran still for his life and only for that brief moment he looked back. Unfortunately, he tripped and a pink orb fell out of his pocket. It crashed onto his head. Familiar looking pink smoke busted out from it and ate up the boy. "Oh no." The smoke grew thicker and thicker but eventually lessened. There in the centre was a new yet familiar silhouette. "My, my, it's been a while since this lasted happened," said a much deeper yet Lambo like voice. When the smoke completely cleared there left standing was not like the Lambos they had seen today. He looked nothing like a child but he is much taller and muscular than ten years later Lambo. He wore a tan fur coloured trench coat along with simple white t-shirt. He had a mildly fitted pair of black leather pants with a matching pair of fingerless gloves. Then there was his longer, several braided, black hair that partly covered his un-opening eye.
"You're not Romeo," Bianchi gasped. "You're much too old and robust."
"Romeo? Heh do I look like a Leonardo DiCaprio?" He asked tiredly.
Tsuna (now back to normal) stared up at the older man. "You're twenty years later Lambo!"
The man held up a hand in greeting. "It's been some time, young Vongola but I have to ask- What happened to your clothes and why are you on top of Bianchi?" Quickly, Tsuna jumped up in embarrassment and rubbed his head. Lambo sighed, "Don't tell me. This has Reborn written all over it. He used that bullet thing didn't he?" Sadly, Tsuna replied with a nod with a small tear in his eye. This much older Lambo sympathised with his much younger boss and took off his trench coat to cover the child. "Here put this on. Gokudera would kill me if he saw me do nothing when you're like this. Besides we can't have you getting sick or anything."
"Whoa didn't expect to see you here." Yamamoto along with Gokudera beside him walked over to them. "It's been a long time man."
"We haven't seen you since the whole ring battle thing," Gokudera added.
"That reminds me." Without warning he snared the three into a massive bear hug and didn't seem to want to let go anytime soon. "I never had the time to do this back then," he said with slight remorse in his voice. "I'm so glad to see you all alive and you did a great job in defeating Byakuran. Thanks to you there is a future." His eye then caught onto his younger best friend. With a smile on his face he strolled up to her and teased, "Hey there cutie."
I-pin burned red and dropped her head, "Lambo, stop it. It's embarrassing."
He hooked her chin and forced her to look him in the eye. "What? It's true. You're really adorable no matter what age."
"Well you don't look too bad yourself." She tried to match his playfulness. "Who would have thought you would grow up to be such a man. I sure wouldn't if I didn't see it with my own eyes."
"Really now?" He laughed, "By the way has my younger self confessed already?"
"Confessed?" I-pin wonder. "I don't believe so. Did he do something wrong? Don't tell me he got into some sort of trouble again," she asked with such worry in her eyes.
"No nothing like that," He rejected. "Sometime soon hopefully he'll tell you something really important. I hope you'll listen."
"Of course," she assured so strongly as she gazed intently at him. "You can tell me anything, Lambo."
His smile widened and he dragged her into his chest. "Thank you." Suddenly, smoke puffed from Fuuta's position and in his place was his younger self looking around in relief. Soon I-pin was given the same treatment as young I-pin was placed into much older Lambo's arms. He laughed joyfully at her bewildered face. "Well look what we have here? The adorable baby I-pin."
"Who you are mister?" She asked timidly with cheeks pink form the compliment.
Softly, he gazed at the child in his arms. "I'm just a friend for now. Hey can you do me a favour?" The little girl not very trusting of this stranger nodded anyway. She didn't know why but she felt like she had already met this man somewhere before but not sure where. "You know your friend Lambo? Well he's going to do a lot of stupid things as he grows older and he needs someone to help him out. I know it's going to be a pain but can you take care of him for me?"
With a confident smile she nodded firmly, "I-pin will take care of Lambo. Do pinkie promise to it." She held out a waiting little hand with her tiniest finger sticking out above the rest. Lambo accepted her pinkie with his much larger one in comparison then held her closer. He planted a kiss on her forehead telling her she was too cute for her own good. Tomato red, I-pin placed her hands on her forehead. "Why you do that?"
"You'll find out when you're older" After that Lambo disappeared with the smoke and out came his younger self. "Lambo-san very dizzy."
I-pin on the other hand was still in a daze after the whole event. She actually almost active the very explosive special technique but she managed to shake it off. She then ran up to Tsuna who is still wrapped up in twenty years later Lambo's coat. "Tsuna gege, can I meet that man again?"
Tsuna smiled at her cute blushing face and shook his head. "Not now I-pin, it will take some time. Just be patience ok."
"Ok," she replied quite excited at the thought.
His attention then turned to the cow baby moping in the corner with his back turned. Slowly, he turned back, tears streaming down his eyes along with a dripping nose. "TSUNA!" He cried as he ran as faster as his bity legs can carry him. He latched on his bare leg and cried on it. "Please don't be angry with Lambo-san. Don't throw me away. I don't want to leave you," he admitted voice was muffed by his obsessive crying. "Lambo-san doesn't want Tsuna to hate him forever."
"Lambo." Tsuna sighed and picked him up in his arms, "I can never hate you forever. Who told you that?"
With a few sniffles he rubbed some his tears away and pointed to the culprit. "Stupidera."
"What the heck did I do?"
"How cruel."
"Wait a go Gokudera, you mentally scarred a child."
"How could you? He's only 5."
"I never said anything!"
Back to Tsuna, he comforted the baby as best he could as he rocked him from side to side. "I can never do that, so please stop crying it really hurts me." Lambo cuddled up to him more peaked up to see his kind face. "Just please don't do something like that again. I don't what to see anyone hurt especially you and my friends. Understand?"
He nodded, "Lambo-san will try to be good."
"Great. Hey how about after class I'll take you, I-pin and Fuuta out to the park to play?" He suggested, "In fact since I don't think we'll have the time to take you all back home today you can have a sleepover at my new place. Doesn't that sound like fun?"
"YAY!" The children screamed as they trotted around their older brother figure chanting: "We're going to the park and having a sleepover," repeatedly.
Karasuma left the scene and stormed off somewhere. "Well that just happened. Whatever that was. Jeeze I just can't take a break in this place." He headed down the hallway not really paid much attention to his surroundings. "These kids are so strange. The Vongola must be out of their minds letting middle schoolers take over their ranks. Hum… I wonder who are the other guardians anyway? Are they the same age as Sawada and those two?" He thought deeper on the subject and his will to learn overpowered him. "I need to do more research." At that very moment his body stopped completely. He was stuck like a pathetic fly in a web. Helpless. His arms and legs were forcefully tied together as he struggled for freedom. He was just able to break out of some of the invisible biddings yet it wasn't enough for complete freedom. Still he fought on with all his might but it all ended in a flash.
Quite literally as a flash of light shone before him. Something was placed over his neck and mouth. "If you value your life you better stay quiet," spat a menacing voice. It was not joking as millimetres off his neck was a polished blade readied to slice his head off at any given moment. Losing his will to fight, Karasuma allowed himself to be dragged off into a room of darkness.
Around that time, Irina wondered by looking for him. "Hey, Karasuma, where are you hiding?" She called out. "I swear I saw him went this way." She spotted something sparkling in the corner of her eye. It was an unusually shaped knife that kind of looked like a bat wing with three holes lodged into the floor. "What's this?" She picked up the strange knife and played around with it swiping it around and twirled it in her fingers. She smiled with interest, "Well finders keepers." She placed it somewhere safe on her person and looked around for her colleague but it seemed he found her.
"Miss Irina. Did you call for me?" Karasuma asked as he appeared around the corner.
"Oh yes. Apparently there's some sort of Assembly thing we need to get to with the brats now so…"
"Very well then let's go." Without any further distraction he walked off.
"Hey wait for me!"
Little did she know another Karasuma was just at the other side of the wall- tied up and gagged. He glared at the two standing in the shadows before him. Who are these creeps?
One of them loomed over him and flashed a cheshire cat grin. "Ushishishi we finally meet, peasant."
AN:
Ren: (Smiles creepily) I bet you were all expecting Vairia. I'm not that nice of an author. (Laughs evily for an excessive amount of time) Also remember way back when I said I will show one non-cannon pairing because I thought it was cute and would make an interesting chapter. This is that chapter with Lambo x I-pin. Yes both I and Yen ship them. Speaking of Yen she can't be here at the moment since she's doing exams so I'm by myself for this. Wish her luck everyone. She'll need it.
Ammlia, Awesomeness3013, 120xion, EmilyXaviera, katsekala, ShiroyaMakuro, Asuka1920, Guest and SabakuMoon thank you for the reviews and glad you're all enjoying things so far.
foxchick1 and Lil' Dormouse – I'm happy to hear you're both interested in the BNHA X KHR fanfic. It'll happen around next year so it's still quite a wait. Also I hope nobody really likes Iemitsu for in that fic I'm not going to be nice to him. Let's just say Endeavour maybe the worst father in BnHA if we minus Overhaul but Iemitsu is a very close second. Also Deku is going to be very OOC when it comes to anything involving Iemitsu or Tsuna. Mainly Iemitsu. I regret nothing.
purplesnake0512, gre enespeon1995 and StorytellerD132- Frist of all are you ok purplesnake0512? I wouldn't want you to get yourself hurt. Second of all yeah… The Varia madness is still on hold. The wait continues. I am not sorry at all.
VinniVVicci – Yes I have seen Ranma 1/2. I love that old anime it was hilarious. As for a crossover I don't think I'll do it but let's have a think. (Imagination goes crazy) What if Ranma's dad crosses the Vongola and as payment he promises to give his 'daughter' Ranma to them as a potential bride for their next boss. Then someone properly Reborn or one of the Varia collects Ranma and sends him/her off to meet Tsuna while he's doing something with E class. Everything goes downhill from there. May never do it but it's a thought.
Oblivious Munchies – Thank you for the compliment I do my best in everything I write to make things interesting and entraining. Also… (Scream with joy) 'A Villain with A Hero's Heart' is probably the main reason why this is a bit late other than my other works and life in general. I love writing it but I don't know when I will ever post it. I really don't. But I can do the next best thing which is a teaser. AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME! Ok let see it would make more sense to show a piece of chapter one but what part? (Scans through work.) Oh this is perfect-
"Deku, get down form there you idiot!" Bakugou yelled at him.
With his back at them Midoriya twisted his head to the four of them. "Oh it's just you guys. What do you want?" he asked in a monotone voice.
"I want you to get your fucking ass down here! You want to kill yourself?"
His expression was devoid of all emotions as he tilted his head at them in a confused way. Then he casually turned his body round to face the four boys better. He stared down at them with his dead green eyes. Eyes that lost all sense of hope. "What are you talking about? Isn't this what you wanted, Kacchan? For me to try again in my next life. If I die now there is a chance I would come back with a quirk and continue on to my impossible dream to become a hero. Isn't that what you suggested?"
"I was joking you idiot! I didn't think you would honesty consider it!" He yelled. His heart going fast as the pressure builds inside him. He could feel a cold sweat running down his skin. He really didn't think anything like this would happen. The Deku he knew would be too much of a coward to try and yet here they are. "Deku, get down from there," he said almost begging as his body trembled in fright. "You don't need to do this."
"Bakugou is right! Please get down from there," the skinny boy yelled. "I'm sorry for everything I said and done. I take it all back. You're a pretty amazing guy, Midoriya. So please, don't throw your life away!"
'I'm sorry.'
Those words played through the boy's head like an eerie broken record. "Don't say that!" He spat as he grabbed his aching temples. He felt like his head was going to split in two "Stop it! Stop it! There's no need to say sorry!" He yelled at the top of his lungs while shaking his whole body about. "There's no need. I've given up ok. I'VE GIVEN UP! JUST LIKE YOU ALL WANTED! I'VE GIVEN UP!"
"He's lost it," the skinny boy shivered at the sight. "What do we do now?"
"I got this," his cubby friend said as his red dragon wings sprung out form his back. "He's not going to fall on my watch." He flapped his wings and flew up to Midoriya's aid. "Please stop this, Midoriya. You're scaring us."
Midoriya glared at the boy while baring his teeth at him. "LEAVE ME ALONE," he yelled angrily while slapping the boy away.
The force of the hit was so strong the winged boy dropped right back down and landed with his back against the hard concrete. He even formed cracks were he landed. "Ouch."
"You ok man?" his black haired friend asked as he helped him sit up.
"Yeah but I didn't know Midoriya has that sort of arm strength. Really caught me off guard," he replied. When he tried to sit up a sharp pain ran up his spine. He looked back to his now crooked wing. "I think it's broken."
"My life is pathetic," Midoriya spoke out, "My life is meaningless. I'm meaningless. Nothing matters. No one cares whether I live or die. The only one who ever did is…" he couldn't bear to say the words. Saying it makes it feel even more real than it already does. Reality is cruel and harsh. Such weight can't be held by one child alone. Without support that child will break. "You were right, Kacchan. You were all right. I'm a useless weakling that can't do anything right. What's the point of even existing? There's no point that's what. I should just reset my life by ending it now. I'll try again in the next." With tear stained eyes he met the eyes of the very shocked Bakugou. He gave him one final smile. The brightest smile he could muster in his broken state. "Good luck for the future, Kacchan. I'm sure you'll be a great hero." With that said and done he leaned back and fell to the ground below but not before he could say one final farewell, "Good bye."
Oh I don't know when I'm going to post this but it will be so fun when I eventually do. Now then.
Ghosty-Lizzy and Cloud – Thank you for the info I'll keep that in mind. However if this is about what Reborn said in the last chapter it's more of a metaphorical thing I came up with for this fic. It will come into play in future chapters.
TheLaughingStalk With Xtra Dip – (Read with a confused look) He does? Then again Reborn would have known about Korosensei to begin with. It was his idea to bring Tsuna and the others to Kunugigaoka fully knowing they would end up in E class or at least counting. This is so he's able to continued training them in a more interesting environment with much more easily. Why else would he have chosen Kunugigaoka as their transfer school?
iiiMey-chan – Eventually. Eventually E class will see Tsuna in DWM. It will be a while but they'll see. And about Chrome. She's on the list of characters that will eventually show up for one reason or another. Very far down the list but she's there. That's all I'll say.
Tsun – Well can't please everyone. Think of the bright side all the explanation and such is out of the way and E class gets to experience the madness that happens to Tsuna on a daily biases without him trying to desperately to hide it. There's only so much I can do with that sort of plot line before things get too complicated and annoying.
Emiliovnavarro – Ok I get it you want to see Tsuna and Nagisa go at it with each other. Well… I don't know how I should word this… technically it could be argued that they will but also not really. Tsuna is going to be up against a lot of people. Take that how you will.
Red-Hot Habanero – Sadly the Mafia trio will not take part in most of the bigger assassination exercise such as the island one for it will be interrupted by Reborn and other mafia business. You'll have to wait and see what I'm talking about.
Well that's it. See you all next time. (Runs and hides in a fortified place suspecting some people might be mad at her with this chapter.) I REGRET NOTHING!
