Chapter 1: In which it all began

Wherein Sawada Iemitsu, Young Lion of Vongola, met Nana, a perfectly normal civilian. They fell in love, dated, and married, just like how it goes in a story we all know.

What's different was, this Iemitsu had the right mind to know that it would be more dangerous to leave Nana in the dark than let her know. So before he proposed, he had told her about his line of work.

This Nana, like the other one, loved Iemitsu very much. Also like her counterpart, she was an easygoing person. So all she said after that was, "That's great, honey! You should invite your boss for dinner sometime."

Iemitsu had thought that she didn't get it at first, but Nana quickly interjected him. She fully understood the situation, and she was fine with it. It was as simple as that.

So even knowing the dangers that could come to her and their future children, she accepted him with open arms.

It was a small marriage. Just him, her, and the priest as their witness. They didn't want to attract any kind of attention, after all.

Then Nana got pregnant, and Iemitsu had to return back to Italy. Iemitsu had been incredibly reluctant, but Nana had honest to god understood. She didn't act as if he was going away forever. She acted as if he was just going to work in the morning and would return soon later in the evening. Although the actual time frame wouldn't be as short as that.

She would miss him, and she and their child would be waiting for him to come home.

After Iemitsu had left, she hid several firearms all around the house, as per Iemitsu's suggestion to always have something to defend with, just in case. She had learned how to shoot correctly by going to the local firing range.

People had asked why she wanted to learn how to shoot, she just said that it looked interesting.

She also continued to trust her intuition. Up until that moment in her life, her intuition had never failed her, and she doubted it ever would. Because her intuition said so.

And so after a while, she gave birth. Iemitsu had known but was unable to fly back to Japan. He had expected hatred coming from his wife, but all he heard was a voice of genuine acceptance and happiness.

"I want my husband to do the best for his Family so that when he returns to us he would come with an air of satisfaction on him. Come back soon, darling, and don't forget to stay safe! Tsu-kun and I will be waiting."

Iemitsu had gotten the drive to do his best at work. He was careful to never spill information back home anywhere in his workplace. Most who knew him hadn't even known he had a wife, never mind a son. The ones who knew were a handful, and only one of them knew the names of said persons.

.:-Chapter 01-:.

Everything started because of one unfortunate happening, in which baby Tsunayoshi managed to climb over his baby crib, only to fall on his head. He cried, of course, which alarmed his kaa-chan who had been cooking in the kitchen and made her come running to the room. When she saw her son laying on the ground, she panicked and went straight to the hospital.

Fortunately, the fall hadn't been hard enough to cause any kind of severe brain damage or injury.

Unfortunately, unknown to both the doctor and Sawada Nana, it did cause him to have a few loose screws.

Later on in life, anyone who knows Sawada Tsunayoshi well enough would know to keep their eyes on him, either out of amusement or concern. Because he would always end up in the most ridiculous situations ever.

And the worst part was, no one could stop him. Because he liked adventures and nothing could prevent him from having one. Or several.

Not only that, he also had the devil's luck on his side. So it's not even worth the try.

.:-Chapter 01-:.

One Year Old

Tsuna watched the television, uncomprehending because he's still a baby, as his kaa-chan talked to her friend on the phone. The television was airing a western movie called Baby's Day Out. Although he didn't understand what was being said on the television, his one-year-old brain did notice something; the baby's adventure looked fun. Tsuna liked fun. So Tsuna liked adventure.

Tsuna wanted to go on an adventure!

He crawled around the house trying to find an exit to start his adventure. Unfortunately, the doors were always closed, the windows were too high up, and there were no weird-looking men to help him out.

When he finally found an opening, his kaa-chan had found him and proceeded to carry him to his crib for his nap. He had forgotten about his mission when he woke up later on until he was taken to the park by his kaa-chan to play.

Of course, at first, it wasn't intended to be that way.

He had been dutifully playing in the sandbox when a butterfly flew in front of him. Attracted by its pretty color, he had naturally crawled after it. Nana had been busy listening to a fellow mother giving tips about taking care of a one-year-old baby and thus was unaware of Tsuna crawling off somewhere.

Tsuna was a fast crawler, and he was proud of that, but apparently, the butterfly had been faster than him, and he soon lost sight of it. He pouted for a while before he realized that he couldn't find his kaa-chan anywhere.

Any other child would've cried at this point, but not Tsuna. His kaa-chan wasn't there to prevent him from going on an adventure! Not wanting to waste any moment, he continued to crawl.

Where? He didn't know and didn't need to know. As long as it's fun, then anything is fine!

Not far from Tsuna's general location, one man, dark brown haired with equally dark brown eyes, was fighting against a group of four men. You'd thought the one man would be at a disadvantage, but no. It was the group that had difficulty keeping up with the man.

The man delivered blows with his weapon of choice, a pair of metallic tonfas, quickly and efficiently, leaving no openings for the group to exploit. While the group scrambled around attempting to land a hit on the man, only to fail miserably and were forced to either avoid or block the man's swift counter, which they also failed to do most of the time.

The man's momentum, however, was broken when he tripped over something that wasn't supposed to be there.

Several things happened all at once.

One, a baby squealed from being tripped on.

Two, the man fell to the ground.

Three, a bullet passed through where the man's head had been a moment ago.

The man was surprised, but quickly put two and two together and concluded that there was a hidden fifth person on the group's side.

The four, who were distracted by the unexpected turn of events, gave enough openings for the man to get back on his feet and knock them all unconscious.

He heard a curse and some rustling coming from somewhere on his left and didn't even bother running up to the man. Instead, he threw one of his tonfas accurately enough to hit the fifth person right at the back of his head.

After making sure that the five men were really unconscious, he piled them up and sat on top of them. He sure loved beating wrongdoers up, but he hated cleaning up the mess.

That's what his subordinates are for, after all. So he called them to do the cleanup. His subordinates complained, but it's not as if they could do anything about it.

While waiting for them to arrive, he finally remembered the anomaly in his fight earlier. The squeal of a baby.

Just as he thought so, another squeal erupted, this time of delight.

The man turned his head to the side to see an infant, a year old at most, staring at him with glee in his brown eyes and a grin.

The man had a certain weakness towards children, so his first reaction upon catching sight of the adorable baby was to quickly come to him, pick him up, and coo.

"Aww, hey there little baby. What are you doing here? Where's your okaa-san?" he asked with a soft voice.

Little Tsunayoshi didn't exactly understand what the man was saying, but he did understand that the man had mentioned his kaa-chan. So Tsuna replied, "Kaa!" with some difficulty.

The man thought that the baby's attempt at saying 'kaa-chan' was simply precious. It reminded him of his son's first attempt at calling out to him...

Back to the topic at hand though, how did a baby manage to crawl himself all the way here, in the middle of the forest?

Now that he thought about it, this forest was quite near the park. Moreover, at this time of the day mothers usually visit said park to let their children play and socialize (more like gossip) with each other.

That settles it. He's going to return the baby to his mother.

He began walking to the park, leaving the pile of men behind. His subordinates would arrive soon to clean them up. Besides, those men won't wake up anytime soon, he made sure of it.

.:-Chapter 01-:.

Tsuna was excited. When he started his adventure, he saw some weird men playing with each other, but then a lot of them took a nap and only one weird man was left awake. Then the one weird man carried him and started to walk somewhere.

He didn't remember how the adventure started for the baby in the TV, but he thought maybe this was it! This was the start of his very own adventure!

They didn't make it very far though. Several other men, wearing similar clothing like the one the weird man that had picked him up wore, came up to them and saluted.

"Officer Takahashi and company, reporting for duty, sir!" one of them exclaimed loudly. The man was loud, Tsuna showed his disapproval by covering his ears with his hands.

The weird man shifted Tsuna so he could hold him with one hand and saluted back briefly with the other, before putting his hand down again. The newcomers followed.

"Takahashi, stay. The rest, you know what to do," said the weird man, making a shoo-ing gesture.

They then got into motion. Takahashi's company, Officers Yamada and Saitou, proceeded to go to where the pile of unconscious men was, unfazed. While Takahashi stayed in front of the weird man.

"So, did you figure out who these people are?"

Takahashi nodded, "We found out that those men are members of the newly built yakuza gang, the Momokyoukai-gumi. But the boss had firmly stated that he had not ordered anything that would disrupt the peace, heavily implying that these thugs were acting on their own accord..."

The newcomer kept on talking about stuff Tsuna didn't understand, and that got him bored. He was going to go on an adventure with the weird man! Why did this newcomer have to stop them?

The newcomer then took out some papers from his bag and gave it to the weird man. Tsuna was getting restless, so he wriggled from his spot on the weird man's hold.

The man couldn't concentrate on the documents with the little baby wriggling on his hands, so he sat the baby down on the conveniently placed rock that was near him.

Deciding the weird man wouldn't be helping him anytime soon, Tsuna crawled away. Maybe the other weird men could help him.

He crawled to where the other weird men had been napping and saw that the other newcomer and the other-other newcomer were carrying them away one by one, like a sack of potatoes, to somewhere.

They couldn't do that! Those napping men were going to help him go on an adventure!

By some miracle, little Tsunayoshi managed to hold on to one of the unconscious men's arm and dangle there, unknowingly carried to where the other men had been carried to. A pickup truck.

Officer Yamada carefully put down the last of the unconscious men on the pickup truck, unaware of the addition of a certain baby. All the men had been deposited to the back of the truck. His duty now was driving said men to the hospital while Saitou reported to Chief Hibari.

So he settled himself on the driver's seat, turned on the music player to full volume, and started driving.

Meanwhile the weird man, now known as Chief Hibari, finally finished listening to his subordinates' reports. It was a drag, but it's his job, so he had to deal with it. Now he could finally go and take the cute baby to the park to look for his okaa-san.

Only, when he turned around, the baby was no longer where he left him.

Then he heard the sound of a vehicle driving away and a baby's laugh accompanying it. He, along with Saitou and Takahashi, turned to the source of the sound and felt the blood drain from his face as he saw the baby from before standing on the back of a moving truck.

He cursed. He realized that the truck was the one which was taking the unconscious men he had beaten up to the hospital.

"Yamada!" he called out in vain. Yamada had started his bad habit of turning the volume to its maximum limit again. Yamada was going to get an earful after this.

He ran after the truck but evidently, the truck was faster.

Takahashi had tried calling Yamada's phone. Unfortunately, Yamada's phone had been in airplane mode to save battery, since it was quite low on them.

Remember kids, don't put your phone on airplane mode when you're on duty.

Meanwhile, Yamada was enjoying the music, tapping his fingers on the steering wheel to the rhythm, while little Tsuna was enjoying the ride on the back of the truck.

But then the truck stopped because of the traffic light. Tsuna pouted. The breeze had been cool, but now that they stopped it felt too warm.

Tsuna was getting bored of waiting for the truck to go again when a car pulled up next to it. The backseat window was open and inside...

Inside was a box of stuffed animals!

That was more interesting than standing on the truck doing nothing, so he made to switch rides. The car was close enough for him to lean in a little and fall into it.

"Omph!" thankfully, the car seat had cushioned his fall, so it didn't hurt much.

The woman who was driving the car noticed the sound. She checked the mirror but found nothing out of the ordinary, except for the open backseat window. Which she didn't know was open before. So she closed it up.

The woman didn't see little Tsuna through the mirror because he was hidden behind the passenger's seat next to the driver's seat. And for the rest of the ride, he kept sitting there, playing with the stuffed lion quietly.

Eventually, the car came to a stop. The woman got down from the car and went to open the backseat door to get the box with the stuffed animals. She didn't notice little Tsuna from the outside because the window tint was quite dark.

She opened the door, but before it opened fully her friend called out to her.

The woman and her friend ended up talking to each other. None of them noticed as little Tsuna got down from the car and crawled away, taking the stuffed lion with him.

Tsuna kept crawling until he felt tired. He wanted to rest but didn't want to stop outside since it was hot. So he went to the nearest building which had its doors open; the police station.

In the busy lobby, no one noticed him. He climbed onto an empty seat and took a nap on the chair.

After a while, Chief Hibari walked into the station. The baby wasn't on the truck when he caught up with it, using his motorcycle. He had given Yamada an earful about his bad driving habit before backtracking to the forest again, but no lost baby in sight. God, he really hoped the boy hadn't fallen off the truck and got-

Was that the baby who was sleeping on one of the guest seats in the station's lobby?

It was.

He hurriedly walked to the baby and gently carried him. He didn't look hurt, though his hands and knees were dirty, along with the stuffed lion he had with him. Probably because he was crawling around on the ground.

He sighed in relief. The boy was safe.

But then he remembered something which made him frown. The baby had been wandering around for at least an hour now. His mother was probably worried sick looking for him.

He walked to the receptionist with the baby in hand. Maybe the baby's mother had filed in a missing child report. But no such thing happened. He didn't know the baby's name, so he couldn't look up any family information either.

Guess he had no choice but to go to the park to see if the mother was still there.

.:-Chapter 01-:.

Which she was.

How did he recognize her? Because her son didn't look much different from her. Although she had a darker shade of brown hair, her brown eyes and delicate features were the same as the ones owned by the baby in his hands.

Honestly, he wouldn't have noticed her, since she looked like the average woman; if it weren't for the fact that she was talking to his sunshine, his queen, the love of his life-

"I know what you are thinking, Tatsuya-san. Cease that immediately," her voice was sharp, reprimanding, but more in an amused tone than a disapproving one.

His wife sat on a bench next to the woman he had been looking for. She stood out from the other mothers accompanying their children. She was wearing a dark blue kimono with a floral pattern along with a red and gold sash. Her long black hair was up in a bun, a red and gold hair ornament hanging on her hair to match her obi, and her steel grey eyes stared at him, or more like the baby on his hands, in a questioning manner.

"Ah! So you're Mikoto-chan's husband! It's very nice to meet you, Hibari-san. My name is Sawada Nana, but just call me Nana." The woman stood up and bowed.

How women who just met can bond so quickly, he had no idea. Nevertheless, Hibari Tatsuya was happy to see his wife socializing, so he bowed back.

"You can call me Tatsuya if you want. And yes, it's nice to meet you too. Sorry to interrupt your conversation, but is this your child, by any chance?" Tatsuya showed her the baby in his arms. Nana brightened up.

"Yes! Aw, look at him, sleeping peacefully. Thank you for picking him up, Tatsuya-san," Nana gently took little Tsuna from him.

"Were you aware that your child had been wandering around alone, unattended?" He raised an eyebrow.

Nana just smiled easily, "Well, I did notice that he was no longer in the sandbox, but it was hardly anything to worry about."

Tatsuya frowned, "Aren't you a bit too flippant about this matter, Nana-san? Your son had gone missing and you weren't worried at all?"

Then she sighed, looking as if he was the one who didn't understand the situation, "Tatsuya-san, I wouldn't have brought him out of the house at all if I hadn't known that my little Tsuna would be fine the entire day."

Her wording had been a little weird in his opinion, a little too specific, but he decided to not dwell on it too much.

"Just trust me on it, Tatsuya-san. That's the way I take care of my son, just like how you have your own way of doing it," here she smiled, amused.

So Mikoto spilled the beans on that one, then. Tatsuya blushed, and the two women giggled.

"Well, it's getting late. I have to go back home now. Thank you for your time Mikoto-chan, Tatsuya-san. Call me later about the playdate, okay Mikoto-chan? See you soon!"

With that, Sawada Nana waved and walked away.

Tatsuya turned to his wife, "Playdate?"

Mikoto gave a small smile, "I thought Kyouya-kun might appreciate the company."

He raised an eyebrow. Really? Their anti-social three-year-old son appreciating company outside of family?

Mikoto caught the disbelieving look on his face and just said, "If she managed to worm her way into my heart so quickly, I'm sure her son can do the same with Kyouya-kun."

Well, that did make just the littlest bit of sense.

THUD.

A small body collided with Tatsuya's legs, which caused him to become unbalanced, but he managed to remain standing. Tatsuya chuckled when he saw the mop of black hair burying his head into his thigh.

"Hi, Kyouya. Did you make any friends today?"

Silence.

Well then, "Are you ready to go home then, Kyouya?"

A nod.

"Alright, let's go."

On the way home, Tatsuya thought that the play date might not sound like such a bad idea at all. Even with the visible age difference between the two. What could possibly go wrong?

(He would come to regret thinking that sentence when he got a report from his subordinate involving his son, his new friend, a giraffe, an air balloon, and getting recruited into the Momokyoukai-gumi.)

.:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:.

I had fun thinking up silly situations Tsuna could end up in lol. Just a heads up, I plan to make this as crack as possible. If you have suggestions for any random situations feel free to tell me in the reviews! That'll be really helpful.

Okay, so here's my headcanon: Sawada Nana is related to Vongola Primo through blood. Idk but it just seems so obvious to me. Tsuna is a brown haired, brown eyed, cuter version of Primo. And at the same time, he's also a younger male version of Nana, albeit with a lighter shade of hair. While it might be just a coincidence I like to think of it that way lmao. That's why in this fic I show Nana as someone who also holds the Hyper Intuition, although she didn't know that's what it's called, and her's is a weaker version of it. She just called it a mother's intuition most of the time.

I know the sudden POV changes might be confusing but just deal with it lmao.

Why do the names of people change several times in the narration? Because I adjust it to fit the POV of the character and also to the introduction points. (Not including the three officers. I immediately introduced them since they're minor characters and it'd be confusing otherwise.) Like how Tatsuya's called "the man" at first (or "the weird man" in Tsuna's POV) before switching to Chief Hibari (or just Hibari) and finally to Tatsuya after his first name was revealed.

Tatsuya's idea of child caring is by sandwiching said child with pillows and duct taping them, not too tight that the child can't breathe, but just enough so that the pillows won't fall. It was bothersome and Kyouya got upset at him for that and refused to interact with him for an entire week. Tatsuya got miserable and promised to never do it again, while Mikoto laughed (elegantly, of course) in the background.

Chopper, out.
