A World Hopping Maniac

Just taken a sneak peak at the next Reborn chapter and it looks really really good! I can't wait for the translations!

To: A Random Human: Thank you for the compliment! Wow, smart little bro you have there. Thank you for the advice, I'll keep it in mind if I get stuck. I love the 'Yet' at the end. With Verde here, god knows what his Vocab will be! Thank you for taking the time to review too, it means a lot.

Here they were once again at the Gate, and Tsunayoshi was determined not to go out.

"No!" he shouts, stomping his foot. "Reborn doesn't like him so I don't!"

"How can you tell if you've never met him?" asks Luce, they had been arguing for about 5 minutes now. Tsunayoshi's argument seemed wholly based upon Reborn's opinion.

"Because Reborn said so!" He is really determined not to leave. Reborn has a reason for everything, apparently, so there was (most likely) a very good reason for him not to step out of those gates once more.

"Reborn's opinion isn't too trust worthy" says a deeper voice, walking past the little boy. Tsunayoshi looks up and gasps as the man walks out of the gate too.

"Are you coming too Verde?" asks Tsunayoshi excitedly. The scientist turns around and looks at the little boy.

"I am. I have some people to visit." And that was all Tsunayoshi needed to hear. Running down the path, he nearly trips once more, but Verde catches him.

"Sorry." Tsunayoshi says, standing back upright. As he and Verde start to walk down the rest of the path, he gingerly reaches up and grabs Verde's hand. The scientist merely adjusts his grip and continues walking.

Luce would never understand why Tsunayoshi liked the more... eccentric and down-right dangerous people in their little made up family, more than the peaceful side. However the important thing was he was out of the gate, whether she made it happen or not.

"Why doesn't Reborn like this person?" Tsunayoshi asks, genuinely interested.

Verde grunts before saying "In case you haven't noticed, Reborn doesn't like a lot of people. It's part of his background to be suspicious of people." Tsunayoshi makes a little 'oh' sound, before continuing on with the walk.

They stop infront of a gate that is next to Aria's one. Yet before they can even ring the bell, the gate opens. Little Tsunayoshi can barely register a person dressed in a whole lot of white before something is placed in his mouth. He takes a step backwards before realising what's in his mouth: a marshmallow. Smiling at the taste, he finishes it, before looking up at who gave it to him.

With the gate now fully open, he can see that there are three little boys waiting for them. All seemed to be the same age as him. The first one had a large bag of marshmallows in his arm and white hair. The second boy was blond, wearing a green all in one and special glasses like Verde wears sometimes when he's dealing with metal. The third one was hiding behind the other two, clutching his stomach. He had red hair and glasses on.

"Hello Luce, Verde. Nice of you to visit." Says the white haired boy, smiling at both of them.

Tsunayoshi takes a few steps backwards and hides behind Verde's leg. He has this strange feeling that he should be scared of this boy, yet why should he if he's never met him before? No matter how he tries to talk himself out of it, there is just this feeling that the boy before him could harm him really badly.

Luce notices this, but just assumes that Tsunayoshi is shy at meeting new people. Grabbing his arm, she pulls him away from Verde's legs and introduces him to the three boys.
