To Summon

Chapter Four

Tsuna fell back, his eyes glued to the person before him. He didn't know what to do nor what to say. As he sat there, a green reptile crawled from his pocket, a little monkey poking their head out as the other went closer. The room was silent, eerily so, as the two conversed. The students stood around and stared in disbelief at the human figure Dame-Tsuna had summoned, the man was tall and well built. Some of the girls began to blush as the man turned, looking around. He didn't stop until his eyes landed on three people that fit Reborn's description.

"Ah, so it's them, kora?" He asked, crouching down to the lizard that sat outside of the glowing circle, "Well, I best be going, kora!" And with that he disappeared, but what no-one had noticed was the little gap in the circle and a small white hawk stealthily crawling towards the stunned brunet, crawling awkwardly into his brown satchel as it tucked its wings to its small body.

"Oh, look at that, Dame-Tsuna managed to summon a lowly human~! Ha, I doubt that thing would be able to do anything. Hey, Dame-Tsuna, come with us, we've got something to show you~!" The ringleader turned towards the door, a smirk upon his lips as his buddy's gave the small brunet a malicious glare. No one dares to stop them unless they themselves wanted what Tsuna was going to get.

The small male stood up, rubbing the chalk circle with his foot before following after the three; trepidation and apprehension clinging on to him like a koala to a tree, enveloping his mind in a myriad of dark thoughts. He watched from behind as the three began to laugh between themselves, glancing to Tsuna now and then to make sure he was there, if he weren't there'd be hell to pay. He step brought him closer to each destination and a step further from safety, he wanted to run, but they had a constant eye on him, sweat beginning to drip down the side of his face. Tsuna didn't care look down to the two in the pocket, instead clutching the satchel straps tighter, digging his fingers into the leather.

"We're here Dame-Tsu~na~!" The ringleader sung out, pinning the small male to the wall with his long arms, leaning in to become face to face. He leant closer, placing his mouth to the younger's ear, "Now, what the hell did you do to put summons..."

Tsuna froze, dear creeping up as he felt the elder run his tounge along his ear, a hum of satisfaction coming from the aforementioned male. He couldn't reply, he was too scared to.

"Ah, come on Dame-Tsu~na~! The least you can do is squeak in terror or something, it's not fun when everything's one-sided~!" One of the ringleader's buddies muttered as he, too, leant forwards, licking the small male's cheek, stopping as he stared deeply into the younger's big doe-like brown eyes, smiling at the fear that encircled them.

He froze as another hand began to trail along his body. "N-No! S-Stop!" Tsuna tried to say, attempting to push the three of but to no avail. He began to cry, tears falling down his cheeks, "R-Reborn!" He wailed out as the hand grew closer, huge years rolling down his cheeks. There was a flash of black light, the three molesters flying back from the brunet as three people appeared, one hugging him as two stood infront, low and hostile.

"Tsuna, make a contract with me!" Reborn called out, tightly gripping the younger's shoulders.

"B-But-!"

"No buts Tsuna, I can't help you if I have less than half of my power!" Reborn retorted, shoving a black knife into Tsuna's hand. He was taken aback at how forceful the raven was being, was he really weakened on this plane? Was it his fault?

He gave a weak nod, cutting the palm on his right hand, Reborn doing the same. They held their hands together, the blood mixing as it fell to the floor, the droplets creating an intricate pattern around them.

"With this pact I, Tsunayoshi Sawada, ask for thou to help me through dire needs and times..." Tsuna said, staring into Reborn's eyes.

"With this pact I, Reborn, accept thou's offer and swear to protect this young capere through dire needs and times..." Reborn retorted back, squeezing his hand as euphoria coursed through him; the same euphoria that was coursing through Tsuna.

The wind began to pick up as it swirles around the two, intricate patterns creeping up to their interlocked hands before slowly sinking into the skin on the bare skin of their arms. They collapsed to their knees, Tsuna leaning into Reborn as he felt like something was pooling into him, filling him to the brim with power. Reborn, too, felt his power and a foreign one entering him, the foreign one enveloping him in a sense of serenity. After everything settled down, they separated, Tsuna removing his blazer to gaze at the markings that settled at his wrist and Reborn pulling up his sleeve to see the same intricate pattern.

"It's pretty..." Tsuna muttered before fainting, his body's temperature rising to high temperatures.

"We need to get Tsuna back to his room, he's burning up." Fon called out as he scooped the brunet into his arms despite the growl that came from Reborn. The raven transformed into his raven form, settling upon the younger male's chest. "Come on Colonnello, we need to go!" Fon called out to the blond that was chasing after the three frightened rats that ran with their tails tucked between their legs.

"Coming, kora!" He yelled out as he chased after his companions and the small brunet that intrigued him greatly. 'It's strange,' was the blond's thought, 'What is so special about this man, what's intrigued Reborn enough to form a contract? Even after what she did to him. What's so special about this capere? What makes him any different from her?' He continued to follow along, glaring at any who daredbto try and stop them. He couldn't believe how no-one seemed worried about the young man, but instead fearful for the people that surrounded him.

After running for a while, they came upon a door, Fon fumbling around for the dormroom keys before shoving them into the lock, opening the door and placing the young male on the bed, Reborn transforming back and laying beside the man, teeth bared. Colonnello came running in not long after, shutting the door and looking it from the inside.

"They didn't care about him..." The blond muttered, sliding down the door and looking around the small room that was extremely cramped now that there were four grown men in it, small, cramped, yet cozy.

Fon walked out of the bathroom he had walked into with a small basin of water and a flannel, placing it upon the brunet. He removed Reborn's hand as he noticed the yellow glow around them, "You shouldn't do that, Reborn.... This is how humans react after having a foreign ignis inside of them..."

"But she didn't react like this..." Reborn retorted, snapping at the brunet, the usual sarcastic tone not there.

"She wasn't human..."
