Sawada Tsunayoshi never had any fun moments in his school life. In kindergarten, he was too shy to talk with others. He can only stare in a corner as the other children played together, laughing happily and paying him no heed.

"Why isn't anyone that wants to be my friend?" Tsuna will mumble to himself, eyes filled with tears that gradually fall to the ground, leaving damp mark that went unnoticeable to the teachers.

Once, the teacher allowed them to play outdoors. All the children were excited, jumping around in joy except for Tsuna, who just followed the teacher to the playground with his head hanging lowly, staring at the ground filled with his own footprints.

Tsuna's mood decreased more as all the children already grouped with their friends, playing together. Tsuna could only walk to the swing and sit there, swinging it slowly as he lifelessly looked at others. Suddenly, a ball rolled over to Tsuna's feet. He heard yells of other children, calling him to throw the ball back.

Tsuna's eyes lightened as he grabbed the ball. Using all his strength he could muster, he threw the ball. Unfortunately, as Tsuna who do not usually participate in outdoor activity and preferred to stay in his own, safe house, failed. He threw the ball upwards, causing the ball to fall on his head. Tsuna yelped as the ball hit him, and fell down flat on his nose. Luckily, he fell on a pile of sand, making no injury.

This small incident caused everyone that was in the playground laughing at him. They pointed at him and laughed at him. Tsuna felt tears gathering at his eyes, as his vision became blurry. As his naïve mind suggested, he cried loudly. On the same fateful day, the teacher decided to do a small quiz, Tsuna, being too timid to answer the teacher, embarrass himself again in front of his class. This event had officially made his nickname the 'Useless-Tsuna'.

In elementary, his nickname as 'Useless-Tsuna' remains. Most of the student attending the elementary school attended the same kindergarten as Tsuna. On the first day of school, he got late because he decided to help an old woman to find her way back home. Tsuna tried to explain it to the teacher, who just ignored him and ordered him to sit in the back. Thus, rumors about Tsuna in his kindergarten spread, making him infamous.

Tsuna became the aim for bullies for his fragile body and weak personality. People knew, but never offered help to him. He failed in almost everything he did; he failed at every test, gaining an average score of 15. His worst subject is P.E, which he failed miserably.

One day, the teacher asked everyone to run laps. Tsuna, not giving full attention, tripped and fell down, earning a few scratches on his face. Some stopped by to laugh and watch, which the teacher scolded away. The teacher just sighed at Tsuna and gave him permission to sit by the bench to rest.

Every time a student passes by, they will point and laugh at him. Tsuna just ignored them, as he usually does, looking as if they were invisible, but deep down his heart, he was sad and angry, angry at himself for being so useless.

On the last year of elementary school, Tsuna's nickname have officially upgraded to 'No good-Tsuna' as known as 'Dame-Tsuna'. Tsuna had already gotten use of people snickering at him. He will simply ignore them, minding his own business. Up until now, he never had any friends. No one wanted to be his friend. Some people even said that you would get his stupid-ness if you get too near to him.

In middle school, things started to change. His mother suddenly hired an infant as his tutor to help him in his studies. Since then, his life began to change drastically.

The infant, Reborn, introduced himself as the strongest hitman in the world and told him that he will be succeeding Italy's most feared mafia family, Vongola, as Vongola Decimo, or known as the tenth generation or 'Jyuudaime'.

Of course, as any teenager would do, he denied it. However, Reborn was persistent. Not long after, Tsuna finds himself falling for the infant's trap. Slowly, the fact of being the mafia boss was becoming more acceptable to Tsuna now.

Even though Tsuna was forced to undergo special trainings by Reborn, which were hell to Tsuna, he began to realize something important. At first, he was merely fighting to satisfy Reborn, but after going through challenges that involved his friends, that is no longer is goal. Watching his friends suffer for him, he had enough.

He wanted to protect his friends that protected him, that saved him from the loneliness and darkness. He is willing to sacrifice everything for them. He worked hard everyday, training with Reborn, so that he could protect them. He studied everyday, so that he will not be a burden to his friends. Currently, Tsuna have an average of 75, which made his mother very proud. Even Tsuna is surprised and proud of himself.

Despite his feminine looks, Tsuna make a great boss. He influenced everyone around him with his kindness. No matter they are enemies or allies, Tsuna will always forgive them with a smile. Tsuna holds no grudge against people.

This kindness has passed through his cloud guardian, Hibari Kyoya's cold wall. In the school, Hibari Kyoya refused to talk to anyone but Tsuna. He only orders, but never talks, that is, until Tsuna break through his wall. Halfway in his first year of middle school, his nickname as 'Dame-Tsuna' mysteriously disappeared. Why is it, is still a wonder to Tsuna. However, a certain skylark knows but kept it as a secret.

He also earned the trust of Gokudera Hayato, his storm guardian, who claims to be his enemy at first, but, after Tsuna defeated him, he became loyal to Tsuna and claimed himself as his right-hand man. Hayato is a protective man, always destroying things that might be harmful to his beloved 'Jyuudaime'.

On the other hand, his rain guardian, Yamamato Takeshi is a very carefree man. He is the total opposite of Hayato, who always glare at people. Instead, Takeshi acts as the middle person, who is always calm. He always grins and does not care about what others think of him, but when it comes to his friends, you do not even dare to insult them.

His sun guardian, Sasagawa Ryohei, who is one year older than them, and the brother of the school's idol, Sasagawa Kyoko, whom Tsuna have a crush on. Ryohei is a very active man, always doing extreme things that normal human will not do. His motto is 'extreme'. He is known as the loudest guardian among Vongola.

His lighting guardian, Lambo, is a different story. Lambo is a child, originally from the Bovino family, holds the 10-year Bazooka that allows him to change his 10-year future self with himself. Lambo, being 10 years old, is very mischievous but acts mature. He is always finding trouble for Tsuna, and always refuses to admit his fault; He is one of the hardest guardians to take care of. Tsuna always tries not to involve Lambo in any fight that involves violence, but his attempt was unsuccessful. Lambo, as a guardian, have his responsibility in the Vongola.

Lastly, the mist guardian, Chrome Dokuro is a very shy girl. Chrome relies on Rokudo Mukuro, as Chrome does not have real organs in her body. Everything is just an illusion, cast by Mukuro. Mukuro, who was locked in the Vendicare Prison, relies on Chrome's body so that he could live, their relationship is unique, as long as Chrome is alive, Mukuro can exist and as long as Mukuro is alive, Chrome can exist. Mukuro tends to be playful when he is around Tsuna when he takes control over Chrome.

Tsuna cannot deny the fact that he is attracted to his guardians. All of them are equally attractive in their own way, but he could not fall for them. He cannot fall for boys, he already have a crush, his sun guardian's sister, Kyoko. However, as much as Tsuna denies the fact, slowly, the guardians became attracted to him instead, and they are determined not to let anyone steal their precious boss.

Mafia chasing after you means trouble, not just normal mafia, but Vongola, the strongest mafia family in Italy. How is Dame-Tsuna going to take all of this?

This is the story replacement for 'Beginning of the Start'.

Who do you want Tsuna to pair with? Leave who you want Tsuna to be with and I'll try to squeeze them in.

You may even choose G27/10027. I personally have an idea on how to write those stories.

G27 might take some time as I need to think how to start and end it.

So, start voting. Anything is possible, as this is ALL27.
