Hidden behind the memories

Chapter : 01

4 YEARS LATER

It's been four years since the birth of Sawada Hikari. She had grown into a quite beautiful and cute little girl and had blond wavy hair and ocean-blue eyes. She turned out to be nothing like her Elder brother, Sawada Tsunayoshi. Unlike her brother who was clumsy and no-good, she turned out to be a rather energetic young girl and was good at almost everything ,but despite their differences, the siblings had a stong and unbreakable bond between them.

Hikari was a very sharp and smart kid and unlike her mother she was not clueless neither was she a no-good like her elder brother. She has a high IQ level and sometimes she acted opposite of how a four year old should act. Children mostly like to play with toys and stuff but she was contrary from all other kids, she held great interest in reading books despite her such young age. With her very sharp memory she can remember everything she reads and learns.

Tsunayoshi or Tsuna for short, loved his sister wholeheartedly. Though there was was nothing in common between then, they did not let it get in between them. Holidays were the best days for tsuna as he could have a chance to go out to the park with his sister and spend time with her. Most of the times they played together resulted in Tsuna tripping over his own feet due to his clumsiness. they both knew how to cheer each other up and in spite of their age differences Tsuna never minded playing with Hikari.

Sawada Nana was very proud of her children. Even without her husband, she did a fine job in the upbringing of her children. She never told Tsuna to be like his sister as she could not stand watching Tsuna hate his sister. She just let them be. She was truly happy with her children but sometimes she wished that her husband, Iemitsu was home.

"Kaa-san where is otou-san?" Hikari asked her mother. "When will he come home?" This time she asked with innocent looking eyes.

"Ah, otou-san is travelling around the world digging out oil. Don't worry hi-chan he will come back when he has free time. " Nana said smiling a little.

"Does he not care about us?" Hikari asked. "No that's not it. He is doing this to protect us." Nana said but later she realized what she said. "What do you mean" Hikari questioned. "Nothing" she replied quickly while adding "when you grow up you will understand. Now why don't you and Tsu-kun go to the park and play." "Okay" she said happily and skipped her way out of the room.

AT THE PARK

Tsuna took Hikari to the park and their routine began. Hikari began to play while Tsuna silently watch her. Suddenly a group of bullies made their way to Tsuna and started to bully him. Upon seeing this Hikari ran over to her brother and stood between Tsuan and the bullies in a defending position and said "Stop bullying my nii-san."

Seeing this the bullies started to laugh hysterically while one of them stated "Look Dame-tsuna is so dame that his sister protects himwhile he hides behind her, hahahaha." The bullies were so busy laughing their heads of that they did not notice another presence approaching them. "Herbivores, you're crowding. I'll bite you to death" a voice said. Hearing the voice the bullies shivered in fear and ran away.

After the bullies ran away, Hikari stayed in the same position as she was was before as she did not know the person who was standing in front of her. But it was not the same for Tsuna. He knewvery well who was standing in front. He was the demon-perfect (or whatever), Hibari Kyoya. She was staring at him while he glared at her. They stayed in the same position for a while until Kyoya spoke "What are you doing , herbivore?""Stop bullying my nii-san" Hikari hissed. Her eyes were full of determination and Kyoya knew she was not going to back down easily. He questioned "Who are you, little herbivore?""My name is Sawada Hikari""If I see you again, I will bite you to death" he said and left. "Hey tuna-nii, who was he?", Tsuna who kept quiet through all of it now spoke "His name is Hibari Kyoya. You should stay away from him. He is really strong and scary." Tsuna explained briefly."Well i don't think he is scary besides I like him."hikari said "hhhiiiieeee, Hi-chan don't say you like him and whatever you do just stay away from him. Come on, let's go home"tsuna said. "Okay tuna-nii" and the headed to their home.
