The Nature Ring

chapter 3

Antonio POV

"AHHHHH-" "Who the hell is screaming at 7 in the morning?!" I screamed looking at the clock. If you haven't been able to tell, I'm not a morning person or at least when it comes to waking up. Getting up I go change into some sweats and a muscle shirt. 

Going down stairs I see Tina sleeping by the door. 'Your more of a guard dog than a snake.' I think to myself finding it strange that she is sleeping there. Walking over to the freezer I see that we are running low on rats. "Well Tina we are gonna have to get you some more rats." I say to Tina alerting her that we are out. Getting a couple and throwing them to her, I head over to the pantry. Looking inside all I can see is dust. "Well looks like I'm heading to the store. i'll pick up some rats on my way back." I say to Tina while putting on my shoes. "Guard the place till I get back and maybe you will get a treat. I say waving good by to her.

(Play song now) "Outside the window kirakirakira, A shooting star streaks kirakirakira" I sing while walking down the street. I just finished doing all the shopping and know I'm heading home. Turning the corner I collide with someone. "Ah! Antonio! Are you all right?" screams Tsuna. "I'm fine Tsuna. There is no need to worry." I say trying to calm him down. "Dama-Tsuna you just hurt a possible guardian. For that you will be punished with extra training." says Reborn appearing out of no where. "EHHH!" screams Tsuna. Ignoring what was happening right now, I started to gather my stuff that was thrown when I fell. "OH! Let me help you with that Antonio." says Tsuna. While picking the stuff up our hands accidentally touched. Pulling our hands apart, I looked up at Tsuna and saw his cheeks were a little pink. 'Maybe he's sick?' I think but do nothing to check. Putting everything back in the bags we stand up.

"So Antonio, where are you heading to?" asks Reborn. "Well I just finished shopping. So now I am heading home." I answer. "Let us walk you home Antonio. We are heading that way too." says Tsuna surprising Reborn for some reason, but he quickly covers it up. 

We begin to walk back, creating small talk along the way. "So Antonio, where you from?" asks Tsuna. "I am from Spain, but I was born in Italy." I answer. "Why did you move to Spain?" asks Reborn. "Well my parents died right after I was born. I was then given to one of my parents friends. They had a to move to Spain because of their job." I answer again. Noticing that we were in front of our houses, I started to say goodbye. "Well our house is right there. So I will see you guys later." I say starting to head towards my house. "Wait! Would you like to come over to our house for some lunch? My friends are coming over, so I could introduce you to them." says Tsuna trying to persuade me. "I don't know Tsuna. Tina doesn't like it when I leave the house more than one time a day." I say concerned for Tina. "Well you could bring her over. Although we have little kids and they do cause some problems. We will make sure that they do behave around Tina. Plus mama really wants to have you over and get to know you better." Says Tsuna practically begging now. "Okay. We will have lunch at your house. We'll come over after I feed Tina. I'll be there at noon." I say heading home.

Tsuna and Reborn thought POV

'Dear Primo he is so cute.' they thought. 'If he's coming over, I have to make sure everything is prefect for when he comes over' they thought with a feeling of determination ignite within them. 'Wait! Why do I feel a warm feeling in my chest when I'm around him? Do I have a crush on him?! I barely even know him yet. I'll wait before I start making any moves on him. But for now, I need to get ready for lunch when everybody comes over.' both thinking the same thing without knowing. The warm feeling inside both of their chests growing as they thought about Antonio.

Antonio POV

"Well Tina it is time for us to head over to Tsuna's house." I say as I pick her up. Allowing her to rap herself around my waist and shoulders. Heading over there I could here shouting coming from inside. Thinking nothing of it, I continued on my way tot he doorstep. Ringing the doorbell, I hear a loud thud from inside. Growing slightly concerned on what was happening, I turned to Tina for guidance. Before I could get an answer from her, the door suddenly opened. "Antonio welcome. Come inside, I'm almost done with making lunch. The kids are upstairs playing right now. You can just wait in the dinning room. It won't take much longer." says mama. Going inside, I head to the table to sit down. "Thank you for having me over mama and allowing Tina to come over to." I say appreciating her to allow us over. I can feel Tina uncoil herself from around me and start to move away from me. Probably going to explore her new surroundings.  

"Boys! Lunch is ready!" screams mama. It's quiet for a second with in the house. Until, thunders sounds of running feet coming from upstairs. Rapidly trying to get downstairs to the food. Suddenly 8 people rush threw the small door frame, causing them to get stuck for a second. Pushing threw they, quickly make their way to the table sitting down. Finally they notice my presence. "Oh! Antonio you made it. I'm so happy you made it." says Tsuna in a obvious happy voice. "Juudaime!!! How does this person know you. Is he part of the mafia too?" screams a silver headed boy. "No Gokudera! He is my new neighbor. He doesn't know anything." screams Tsuna in a panic voice. Confused on what is happening, I turn my head to Reborn who was sitting right next to me.

"You don't need to worry about anything. Just ignore what they are saying" says Reborn in a protective sounding voice. "Okay. If you say so Reborn." I say to him giving him a closed eye smile, missing the slight blush appearing on his face. "Let me introduce you to everyone Antonio. This is Gokudera Hayato" while pointing at the silver haired guy who was screaming at me earlier."It's nice to meet you Gokudera. I'm Antonio." I say smiling a little nervelessly. "Tch." says Gokdera while glaring at me. I nervelessly turn back to Tsuna and motion for him to continue.  "This is Takeshi Yamamoto" pointing at a smiling boy with black hair. "It's nice to meet you Takeshi." I say feeling more comfortable around him. "Nice to meet you Toni." he says smiling. A little surprised at the nickname but I still smile. "This is Ryohei Sasaqawa" pointing to another silver haired guy, who was covered in bandages. "It's EXTREMELY nice to meet you Antonio." he says excitedly. A little startled by the enthusiasm, I just smile. "This is Lambo Bovino" pointing at a small child in a cow suit, with an afro. "HAHA! You will bow down to the all mighty Lambo. You work for me now!" he screams at me , while standing on the table to make himself taller. Suddenly he gets hit by Tina, who is hissing angrily at him. "Must not cry." says Lambo holding back tears. I reach over to him and offer some grape candy, to try and cheer him up. "HAHA! The great Lambo will gladly take the treasure from you peasant!" Exclaims Lambo, precisely pain gone.  Smiling down at him, I quickly pick up Tina and put her on my lap. "I should introduce my python. This is Tina." I say introducing her. She moves her head up to my shoulder to allow the others to be able to see her. "You may continue now Tsuna." I say getting his attention to continue introducing people. "Okay then. Let's continue. This is I-Pin" pointing at a little girl in a Chinese outfit with her hair up. She looks to be about the same age as Lambo, but maybe a little bit younger. "It is nice to meet you Antonio" she says smiling with a joyful smile. "It's nice to meet you too I-Pin." I say smiling at her. "And finally, this is Futa" he says pointing at a boy with big brown innocent eyes. "It's nice to meet you Antonio." Futa says with a cheery little grin. "It's nice to meet you to Futa." I say returning the same grin back to him.

Just then Mama comes in with the food. "Well everybody lets eat." she says with a motherly smile.

Time Skip~

"Thank you again mama for allowing me to have lunch here." I say appreciating her allowing me to be able to have lunch with them. "It's no problem at all. Come over anytime you want." she says smiling widely."I better get going, Tina is really tired from playing with the kids and needs to take a nap." I say smiling at the sleeping snake in my arms. "You be safe now." mama says in a motherly tone. "I will." I say waving to her the best I can. 

Walking inside my house, I then relies how tired I am. Setting Tina down on a giant pillow. Heading over to the couch, I lay down. relaxing and letting sleep over take me.

Reborn's POV

I feel a strong aura from Antonio. Going over to Futa, I hop in front of him and ask"Futa, can you do me a favor and tell me the ranking Antonio has?" "Sure thing Reborn." he says and begins doing his reading. "Strength: 35-1000. (don't know the numbers, so making them up) Intelligence: 4-1000. Leadership: 55-1000. Ability with children: 10-1000. Snake lover: 1-1000. Speed: 15-1000. Ability to join Vongola: 1-1000. Flame: Nature." he says before passing out. I move him onto the pillow laying down. Pulling the blanket up to his chin. 'The nature flame? That is a rare and powerful flame. The Arcobaleno nature died years ago. But they are usually is reincarnated into another being a few years later. Yet it has been so long since there was a nature arcobaleno. Could Antonio be the reincarnation of the nature acrobaleno. If so, I'm going to protect him with my life.' I thought to myself looking out the window towards Antonio's house. 

Feeling Drowsiness overcome me, I head to my hammock. Changing into my Pj's in a matter of seconds. Laying down, I allow Leon to turn into a blanket. Settling on top of me as I drift to sleep.

I hope you guys like this chapter. It is longer then all the other chapters. Other chapters will probably not be as long. Although there maybe a few that are about the same length as this one. Tell me how it was. And I'll see you pups later~
