CHAPTER 9-2

In the Sawada Household was Tsuna by himself, Nana had gone over to her friend's house for a cooking competition, chances are that she'll be spending the night over there.

He sat in the new living room staring at the blank Tv, for the first time. The house was quiet, ever since Reborn came into the household. Everything was chaotic, at least it was for Giotto.

The sun was beginning to disappear behind the dark clouds as night was drawing near. He had already 'bonded' with his friends, even if it's a little. And spent the day by himself. Now there's nothing to do besides reading or just drinking tea.

"...When are they coming back?" Tsuna muttered to himself, looking at the clock. Since it was never this quiet...I guess I messed the loud noise Tsuna thought, trying to keep himself occupied.

Somehow, the silence in the room was getting to him. It reminds him of the past, how everything was quiet, how he sat there by himself in the room. It was too familiar. To think that before and now was so different, I guess I owe it to Nii-Sama Tsuna smiled at the thought. He can't help but felt the need to wait for his brother's arrival rather than to go to sleep.

"I've decided Sano. For this one time, I'll be there for him"

The promise that he made to himself, Tsuna could only guess that he did it to protect his pride. To not break his word. "...This waiting is worst then School's schedule" Tsuna whined, sitting on the couch for a long time was the same as sitting in class while daydreaming.

"Hayato-Chan~ Say something will you?" Tsuna asked, as the red gem softly glow. "Shut up! I don't want to talk to someone like you!" Hayato yelled at the boy. Tsuna frowned at the response but nonetheless, he got himself a person to talk to.

"Please don't bully me Hayato, We all want someone to talk to from time to time" Tsuna replied as silence overcame the room again "....it can't be helped I guess..." He had forced those six to walk the same path with him, it was only natural that they would, at least, dislike him.

"Kufufu, Octopus surely has a rude mouth. Can't he at least show some respect?" Mukuro spoke up with his signature laugh. "Damn you Pineapple! Your Hairstyle is worst then mine!" Hayato shouted, re-entering the conversation.

"Kufufu. So you're saying that seafood is healthier than fruits? That's the first time I've heard someone say that" Mukuro shots back. And soon the war between seafood and fruits began.

Tsuna just watch as the two fought with their voices, luckily they didn't have their physical forms, or else the living room would be destroyed twice. "Claim down you guys, both are delicious so don't fight~" Takeshi interrupted.

"Stay put of this SmileyFreak! Don't interrupt me! This is between only Us" Hayato shouted, not realizing that his words were cutting into the boy. "Kufufu, Agreed. This is an urgent matter that We must resolve. Stay out of this or I'll kill you. Fruits are ones Not to be messed with" Mukuro said.

Within seconds after Mukuro's line. Those trapped in the gems suddenly felt a shift in the air. Tsuna held the bracelet in his hand. He lifts it to his eye-level, dangling it in mid-air. "Oi You Two, I don't care about your debate. But I won't appreciate it if you threaten someone or nickname one without permission. Those two are the actions that I hate the most" Tsuna started to move the bracelet over his warm cup of tea.

"If I hear it one more time, You Six will be swimming in hot waters. Victims or Not"

"H-H-HAI!" Hayato yelled in panic. "K-Kufufu, N-Noted" Mukuro sweatdropped. Tsuna sighed as he placed the bracelet back to his wrist and then back to his usual state. "...Thanks Tsuna" A soft whisper comes from the blue gem, making Tsuna smiled as he picks up his teacup for another drink. "Don't worry about it, it's nothing" Tsuna answered taking a slip.

*Ding~ Dong~*

Tsuna's head turned to the main door, at this hour. Can it be his Bother? No, something says different. Giotto would say 'I'm back' whenever he comes home. The person now standing in front of his house, is not a person he knows. Tsuna gently placed the cup down on the table, carefully to not make any sound.

*Ding~ Dong~*

The bell came again, Tsuna manages to get an impression that the person isn't a patient type. And so he walked to the door and asked "Who is it?" in a firm voice.

"Erm... I-I'm Irie S-Shoichi, Can I s-speak to Sawada T-Tsunayo-shi?" The voice introduced.

Tsuna was suspicious, the person sounded aged 20 despite how nervous he sounded and maybe someone who neither knows his Brother, nor an enemy targeting him because of his brother. Neither way, I have to answer him Tsuna thought as he opened the door.

There was a person with red hair and glasses smiling at him nervously. "G-Good Evening Sir Sawada! It's nice to meet you!" Shoichi panicked as he bowed over 90°.

For Pete's sake, Just Who is this guy!? Tsuna smiled awkwardly. "And... Why are you here?" Tsuna questioned as the man's face turned to a serious side. "...I'm here because I need your help"

Tsuna looked at the men, oddly enough. The name 'Irie Shoichi' belongs to the kid a few houses down the street, and the person currently standing in front of him is obviously older. But the resemblance is uncanny.

"...So Onii-Sama was blast into the future"

That one sentence when thought the burnet's mind, his face began to pale as his head rushed off into different ideas of why this person is here for him.

Tsuna could only sigh as he allowed the person into the house. It didn't matter if this Shoichi is trustworthy or not. The only thing Tsuna was thinking was:

Onii-Sama...why are you dragging me into your mess?
