"ONII-CHAN!!!!!"
Leon opened his eyes, blankly staring at the cieling, before sitting up. He sighed tiredly, and proceeded to fall right back to sleep.
"ONII-CHAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This time the yelling was right in... front of him?
"Gwah!!!" the teen yelled, and ended up falling side ways off the bed. "Ow..." he mumbed rubbing his head. "What was that for Yuki?" he complained. Hi younger sister placed a hand on her hips, "You're going to be late for school. Breakfast is ready." she said before jumping off his bed and skipping out of his room. LEon sighed before getting up and fixing the bed. He looked out the window, nothing unsual... everything just the way it was...
After getting ready, and putting on his school uniform, he headed downstairs, seeing his little sister watching the tv. Leon smiled as he slipped on his shoes. "I'm leaving." he said swinging his bag over his shoulders.
"Eung." was all he got as a response. Shaking his head, he walked out of the house staring up at the sky. He tilted his head before fixing his eyes back on the road. Being that he didnt live too far from the school, it only took him about fifteen minutes to get there. "Yup... just another typical day.." he said to himself.

~*~

"How long are you going to stay in my house?" Kuro asked glaring at Rhys.
"Until I find all the guardians." the little guy answered. "Now get to school idiot. I need you to help me find them. So far you havent done a good job."
"You damn midget. I never said I'll help you find them."
Rhys looked at him before jumping up and flicking his forehead, making Kuro tumble down the stairs.
"I'm going to... kill... you." Kuro growled as he got back up.
"Try." Rhys simple replied. "See you cant. Now go to school." Which that, he opened the door, kicking Kuro outside. "You have lots to learn.."
Once outside, the brown hair teen got up, dusting himself up. He hated being stuck with that baby. Swearing under his breath he headed towards the school building. He really didnt have a choice... if he didnt find all the guardians then it'll be such a pain. He shoved his head in his pocket, sighing silently to himself.

Koganei was up late today so that led to him having to have to run to school to make sure he was on time which was okay with him because with the way he ran he would be there at his usual time which was early.


Devin was on time as usual because her new "father" never let her be late for school if he could help it. When she arrived she went straight to class and laid down with her head on her desk. Most of her classmates thought that she was a boy and not a girl.

Misami walked up toward the school building wringing her hands. She wasn't worried ro anything, just... anxious. It had been almost a year and a half since she had been all but promised the title of the twentieth Vongola's Rain guardian. But she still hadn't seen him. To tell the truth, she had really forgotten about that duty of hers. She hadn't even been looking for him. But, suddenly, today a ring showed up in her mailbox. And she knew exactly what it was.

The Vongola ring of the Rain.

It had been given to her. And right now she was holding it in her right hand. Should she put it on? Should she have left it at her house? It didn't exactly come with instructions. But, she felt like taking it with ehr was the right thing to do. She never wanted to let it get out of her touch or sight.

But wearing a ring that even looked so valueble as that would draw attention. So she pulled out her necklace that now hung inside her school uniform and undid the clasp. Then she slipped on the ring and shoved it back under her blouse. There, that should do it.

By this time she had already entered the school and after a quick stop at the nearby water fountain she walked into her homeroom and took her seat by the window. She let her bag down with a slight thud and leaned against the window, and watched the people arrive at the school.

Vlad was meditating on the roof of the temple when he heard a voice call out to him and say “Vlad, it’s about time for you to go to school!” He opened his eyes and then crawled over to the edge of the roof, he looked down and saw Izuho, a young monk who took care of him. Vlad climbed down the side of the roof part of the way and then he jumped off and then rolled when he hit the ground. He quickly stood up and walked over to Izuho, he smiled at him and said “alright, I’ll get going.” Vlad went into the temple and saw some of the monks were in the middle of meditation. He looked and saw his book bag was in the front of the temple were the monks had gathered.

Vlad sighed and then made his way to the front of the temple, as he walked the floors squeaked and he shook his head. When he reached the front he grabbed his book bag and then looked at the monks to see if they were still meditating, they all had their eyes open with a disappointed look on their faces. Vlad gave them a smile and then ran out quickly, he ran past Izuho and said “ Bye, I’m off for school.” He ran to the stairs that lead from the temple to the street, he jumped over the small section of stairs and then jumped over the last section and he landed on the sidewalk. Some of the people who were walking by, stared at him and Vlad only smiled at them. He then turned toward the direction of the school, he started to run and when he saw the nearest fence he jumped over it and into an older couples yard. They were both working in the yard and Vlad ran past them while waving, they both smiled and waved back. He then jumped into the next yard and then the next until he got back to the sidewalk. Vlad then ran toward a house, he was moving fast enough that he was able to run up the side until he reached the window ledge of a room on the second floor. He pulled himself up and then pulled himself up to the roof, he then stood on the roof and looked out and saw the school.


_________________________________________________

Sadami was in her room, she was getting ready for school. After putting on her uniform, she walked toward the door. When she opened it two men in black suits were standing there, she sighed and told them “ I don’t need you guys, don’t you have work to do or something?” one of them answered her by saying “ protecting you is our job, please let us take you to school.” Sadami sighed and then walked into the hall and the two men followed. She walked into the kitchen and grabbed a cookie and poured herself a cup of coffee.

She then walked outside and in the circle driveway was a black car, she walked to the car and she heard it unlock. She opened the door and sat in the back seat, the two men then checked out the car looking to see if there was a bomb or anything attached to the car. After giving the machine a full inspection, the two men got in the car and started it. They slowly drove the car to the gate, the man who was driving rolled down the window and stuck his head out the window and talked to the guard who was watching the gate. The gate then opened and the man brought his head back in the car and then drove out onto the street.

When the car arrived at the front of the school, Sadami stepped out of the car. Some of the students who were walking to school stared at her. Sadami ran her fingers through her hair and then turned back to the car and said “ tomorrow, I would like to walk to school.” the man in the passenger seat said “ that is fine, but we will have to walk with you.” Sadami smiled and then walked toward the school doors, she had already constructed a plan so she could get rid of those two goons while she was walking to school.

Leon walked up the stairs to his class, saying hi to those he knew on the way. He slide open the class door, poking his head, as if checking to see who was there. With a small smile, he strolled over to his seat, which was at the back. He didnt mind really... the window was right next to his seat, which had a great view of the sakura tree. Leon dropped his bag besides the table, and opened the window, sticking his head out. His elbows rested on the window sill, as he peered down from the third floor.

As Kuro walked into the school, everyone seemed to move away from him. People often said he had a "dark aura." He looked around, before moving on. "How can any of these guys be a guardian?" he asked himself, placing his hands behind his head. He walked up the stairs, staring at the ceiling the whole time, lost in thought. Amazingly, Kuro found his way into his class without a problem. He sat down in his seat, placing his feet on top of the table, tilting his head.

A small figure was sitting up on a tree, with a binocular in his hand. He smiled as he looked from student to the next. "Mmm..." was all he said before a small dragon like creature landed on his head. "Any luck Fuu?" the silver head asked, without taking his eyes off the students. The dragon made a small purring noise as it shook its head. "Mmm... it's okay, I think I found them.."

Ren woke up early. After he finished his routine, he went to a secret room that only he knows. He knelt to the ground and whispered " Mother, I am going to school today. Wish me luck. Goodbye." Then he rose up and left the house.

Ren was walking in the street alone. He had a sneaking suspicion that he is about to be ambush. He then, stopped walking and started to detect many other presence. He started to count......
3.....
2.....
1.....
*Bang* Ren dodged the bullet and threw his bag and the other bag that contains laptop. ' Tsk. Why so early in the morning!' He mentally berated himself while he allowed his body to be moved in instinct and reflexes alone. After a short minute, Ren was standing alone while holding the suit of one of the people that attacked him. He had in his left hand a gun that was so close - too close in the man's comfort - on his head. "Tell me, why are you here?" Rean asked with a superiority of tone. "To k-kill the G-Guardians of the t-two M-Main Mafia family. But we saw you and decided to capture you for a-a g-great reputation." The known guy said shakily. "Why." He stated as his eyes turned bloody crimson. "Because the others still believed that you'll be great for an experiment. You're Father - "Don't call that monster, my Father!" Ren exclaimed. - told us that if we ever encounter you we need to capture you alive. He said that you are not a weakling anymore." The man said with gaining a little confidence. If possible Ren's eyes turned more redder. Then he pulled the trigger of the gun while he whispered to the man "Amen." Then he left and tossed a lighter so the bodies will burn. His eyes turned normal as he said aloud thinking of the Mafia he encountered just now "May the Gods judge our souls, not by how many we killed, but by how many we saved." After mentally praying he picked up his two bags and immediately ran towards the school not wanting to be late.

After he reached the school, he leaned against the tree and looked up. Then he saw a baby that was holding a binocular. "Oh looks like the two families are gathering." He said not thinking while looking at the baby. ' I'll need to researched if I want to avoid being in the conflict.' He mentally added. He was breathing hard. He decided to skipped the first class and sleep.

"I will be the one to defeat the legendary Motou!" The masked man removed two massive sword that were strapped to his back. He swung them around as if they weighed nothing, but every swing left behind a gust of wind strong enough to knock someone down. The man was standing on the grass in front of the Motou Dojo, secluded in the northern mountains. Across from him was a blonde man wearing blue shades. His blue and white patterned robe moved with the wind as it rested on his shoulders, his hands to his side. He grabbed the shades with his index and thumb, folding them over the V-collar of his white kimono every movement gentle and precise, exactly the opposite of his opponent. "The Motou style left with its Master, begone." The masked man busted out laughing, and stabbed his two swords into the ground. "You think I would believe that?" The masked man grunted and remembered the town at the base of the mountains. The signs stating "Any fighter looking for the Motou Dojo, this way." Anytime he stopped to try and talk to someone, they would just point in the same direction as the sign and not even say a word. "No, I know you are the Master of this Dojo. It is time for you to die!"

The masked man lifted his blades out of the ground and rushed the man in the patterned robe, thrusting the blade in his right hand at him. He thought he had him, but as his blade closed in on his target, a blinding light formed between them. The masked man shook his head, believing he had struck the decisive blow. When he could see clearly again, the man in the kimono had unsheathed his sword and its tip was perfectly touching the tip of the masked man's sword. "Motou Defensive Technique 14, Perfection. The technique developed by my grandfather." The masked man was at a lose for words. The man in the kimono put his shades back on, pushing them up with his left index finger. "I am not who you think I am. You will notice you aren't able to move. That's because when your blade connected with mine, one small shift caused enough friction to make a spark. While you were surprised by the light I hit the underside of your arm with my free left hand, making it impossible for your brain to send information to your arm so it can move." The masked man's eyes grew wide as he tried to move his arm, but it wouldn't budge. "Technically, your whole body is paralyzed. you could say I'm holding you up right now." He pulled his sword straight up, causing the masked man and his weapon to fall backwards and to the ground with a thud. "Nothing less from the Motou Style, I suppose." He let out a small chuckle as the clouds past over him. "It wasn't just the Motou Style." The man in the kimono stood over him, sheathing his sword. "What do you mean?"

"The Motou Style did play a large part in your defeat. But I also used techniques from styles native to both Russia and China. You were defeated not by the Motou Style." The man in the kimono stepped over the masked man and began walking back inside to the mansion. "You should be able to move in five minutes or so. I trust you will show yourself back down the mountain."

"Hide-nii!" Hidekazu took his shades off once again and lifted his little brother up, lightly patting him on the head. "Kazuya, we just saw each other five minutes ago." Hidekazu put his brother down and followed him into the dining room. The old, polished hard word floor making a noise wit every step the duo took. There their mother was preparing tea, sitting in a traditional woman's kimono. She was a beautiful women with long blonde hair and green eyes, the idea that she was pushing forty would shock most who met her. "How did it go?" Hidekazu's mother poured both Hidekazu and Kazuya a cup of tea. Hidekazu nodded and sat down across from her, Kazuya sitting on his lap. "He thought I was the Master. So I assumed he hasn't heard anything about father." A saddened expression overcame her face, Hidekazu lifting his tea and taking a sip. "Don't worry. If the people he runs into are anything like the ones who have been coming here the last few months, I'm sure he's just fine." His mother nodded and poured herself a cup. After finishing, she took Kazuya and went to do laundry, leaving Hidekazu to ponder what to do next. That was the fifth fighter this month, up two from the previous. Was his father sending people there? Or was it someone else wanting the Motou? Either way, Hidekazu needed information and he needed it soon.

Kiyoshi woke herself up early enough to take a shower, get dressed, collect all her homework and then make breakfast for her mother and herself...she almost kind of wished her dad had stayed with them, but hey...that wish would never be granted. They would never become a 'happy little family', big deal...she didn't care...okay, she did. There was no hiding it.

After breakfast, Kiyoshi skipped down the stairs of the apartment and was on her way to school. A lot of sixteen year olds probably hated school, but she didn't, she liked to learn and everything, she kind of wondered though if she could use her illusions to play tricks on everyone there once in a while...it could be fun. Kiyoshi couldn't explain her 'illusions' to save her life...she didn't know how she could do it, but she could.
Finally she arrived at the school and went directly to class.

Ren groggily woke up. He saw a female figure walking to the school. 'Maybe going to class.' He thought. He mentally berated if he will or will not go to class. Finally he said out loud, "What is the use of going to school if you're not going to class?" Then he looked at his uniform. It wasn't stained of any kind of dirt. He mentally patted himself in the back for not letting his uniform be stained.

Ren stood up and stretch his body. *Yawn* He picked up his two bags and started to go to his class. When he arrived he saw a very normal class. People talking, talking and talking. He sighed and went to his designated seat. He opened his laptop and started to research the Vongola, Diberno and the Association. The sites he hack- researched had a little information about who will be the next in line. 'Why do they decided to go to Japan, when it's clearly I'm here laying low!' He mentally whined. 'Plus if they see me being attacked by the one that is attacking them they will get suspicious. I really have a lose-lose situation.' He added.

He was ready to turn-off his laptop if he didn't saw one site that was locked and that his computer alone can't access. He smirked and started to do the play called "Hacking". Of course, years of researching, hacking and training didn't go into wasting. He sighed, it wasn't much of a challenge compared to one site he saw before. "Okay, let's look at this." He whispered softly.

'Sh*t. The others are in my class! What am I going to do? I don't want to be in the middle of conflict!' He thought to himself while he turned off his laptop. He straightened his position and hid his laptop. 'I need to research them individually too.' He said to himself and started thinking of a plan that wil not blow his cover.

Haine sat, his feet propped up on his desk, ignoring the voices of those around him. They didn't mean anything to him, he could easily have killed them all, even. But it would be a waste of time. He wondered what he would do today. Maybe listen to the teacher, see where he screwed up? "Haine, What is the answer to this question?"
Haine looked at the teacher with disdain. "Do I look like I give a damn?" Haine hated them, All of them. He opened the classroom door and left. There was no point in staying.

"That boy..." Mr. Hakami stated. "That boy is going nowhere. He'll never get anywhere if he doesn't learn to play by other's rules. And unfortunately, at this pace, it will be a necessary skill that he aquires much too late in life." And after one final heaving sigh, Mr. Hakami returned to his desk and began to scribble down a note, "I guess I have to write him down, don't I?"

Misami didn't really know what was going through that boy's head. If he thought he was being "cool" or even just because he didn't want to. He was just being concieted. Actually, it didn't matter the reason, it was completely selfish and concieted. If he was just going to walk out of school at first period, then why did he even bother coming to school? Just to piss off the teacher?

Again, just a narcassist.

"...Misami would you give the answer?" Mr Hakami asked as he looked up after taking his brief notes about the event that had just transpired in this man's classroom. "Yes" Misami said as she stood up "The history of Japan as a militaristic country began with the opening of the borders to Commodore Mathew Perry. This modernized the backwards Japaneese during the Meji revolution. However to compete with the new Western powers in global markets, they took to colonizing and conquering other countries."

"Exactly" Mr. Hakami smiled. "Every little thing in our country today has its roots in some event...." And from this point Misami just tuned him out for a while again. She wouldn't be called on for a little more any while, and she got the essence of what he was saying anyway. All she had to do was keep one eye on the board and write down what he did. And then she was free to gaze out the window, at the beautiful day.

It really was a shame that they had to go to school on such a nice day.

Kiyoshi stared at Haine as he walked out. How could someone seem so...harsh. Rough around the edges didn't quite seem to explain it, he seemed like a shard of glass, touch it and you'll probably get cut. Ouch. She thought before turning her attention back to school. She wondered what his problem was exactly, though she should probably try to avoid people like that. School really wasn't all that bad...it was important, didn't he know that? Kiyoshi decided to stop thinking about it all together as she tucked a lock of black hair behind her ear.

Ren just looked at where that guy - as he heard his name - Haine walked out. 'He's Haine Rammsteiner, huh? Oh and the other one is Masami Lyselle. Is it just me or am I really just unlucky?' He asked himself. He looked around the class and noticed a girl that looked one of the guardians,'Just my luck, there is Kiyoshi Ella Daisuke too.' He added to his misery. He closed his eyes and let the name of the guardians echo in his head. 'Leon Hayashi...Devin Twilight.....Masami Lyselle......Zane Insane......Haine Rammsteiner......Kiyoshi Ella Daisuke......Koganei Midnyte.....Sadami Iwai......Kuro Farris....Ikuma Hakugi.....Vladimir Esposito......Rynn/Wrath Zaigou.....and Hidekazu Motou....MOTOU?!!'

Ren opened his eyes immediately. Several thoughts were running in his head, 'A Mouto! The Rain Guardian of Dibernardo Family is a Mouto! The Legendary Mouto's! I bet they send assassins there immediately. I need to go to the Mouto Estate, quickly! Even if Hidekazu Motou defeated B-class assassins, there's no telling if he can survive an assassin of my caliber!'. One decision was formed in Ren's head "Go to the Motou Estate quickly!".

Ren fell on his chair clutching his stomach. "Ren!" Mr. Hakami exclaimed, seeing how Ren was clutching his stomach tightly. Ren faked wheezing. He loosened his grip on his stomach a little, while trying to stand up and sit on his chair but failing miserably. Mr. Hakami made his way to the boy who was trying to stand up. "Ren, I think you need to go to the Hospital. You're having one of your seizures again." Mr. Hakami said worriedly as he bend to see Ren's face.
When he saw the teen's face, he pitied him immediately. The boy's face was sweating slightly, his lips were quivering, you can see that he was biting his lips to stop himself from screaming in pain and his eyes were tightly shut. "No.....I think..... I can manage. I'll just go to the .....clinic. May I?" He said while looking at Mr. Hakami as he started to catch his breath. "Of course. Let somebody help you." The teacher stated as he helped the still-quivering boy in standing. "I t-think I c-can m-manage." Ren replied with some stuttering. He slowly stand up and left the classroom slowly while clutching his stomach tightly, but not before bowing and thanking the teacher.

Ren went to the clinic slowly still gripping his stomach. He opened the clinic and noticed that he is alone there. He instantly - almost as if nothing happened - went back to normal. He scribbled a note saying that he will go home so let someone gave him his bags in his house. He put it near a bed. He moved the sheets so it will look like it was used. Then he ran so fast that he only looked like a blur. Ren instantly reached the Motou Estate. He passed all the security like it was a breeze and nothing more. Then when he found himself in the garden. The alarm ringed. And then all hell break loose.

When the teacher enter the classroom, Leon closed the window and sat down. Okay... he really hated history class... and he sucked at it too. Sighing mentally to himself, Leon rested his head on the table and closed his eyes. It really didnt take long fo him to fall asleep. Besides, yesterday he was up all night..
"Oi... Leon... we have Takoyaki today." he heard a voice say.
Leon jerked his head up smiling, "Itadaki...masu...?" he shouted before trailing off. He blinked and stared around his class. The others were trying to hide their giggling and laughing, but he could still hear them. He glared over at his friend who bursted out laughing.
"Leon? Is there a problem?" Mr. Hakami asked tapping his feet. "I... uh... um.. nope.." he answered with a nervous smile. The teacher gave him a warning before going back to the lesson. He excused himself from the classroom before sliding down onto the ground. "That damn bastard..." he muttered.
"Hey you."
Leon looked over, "What?!" he snapped before realizing he was talking to a baby. "What the... um.. are you lost little boy?" he asked. "Wait.. how did you get inside this school anyways?"
"My name's Thad, and I'm not a little boy, I'm a hitman working for the mafia."
Leon chuckled, "Alright whatever you say." Before he can say anything else, the little guy jumped up and kicked him across the face. "I'm not joking. Now follow me, I must talk to you."

Kuro wasnt really paying attention, nor did he care when Haine made and out burst. He looked over, staring at the window before spotting something... or some walking across the school grounds. "Those purple hair... and that black cat..." he mumbled. "RHYS YOU!!!" he yelled getting up. Without thinking he bolted out of the classroom, ignoring everyone there.
"Uh Kuro is there--" before Mr.Hakami can finish his question, the boy was gone. "What's wrong with you guys today?!" he asked.

Rhys had a file of each guardians as he looked through it. "Hmm... They all seem to be a student here. Good this makes my job much--" before he even realized it, he was picked up by Kuro.
"You damn midget. Why are you here?!" he yelled.
"Keep your voice down. The others are in class. You're not doing such a good job with finding the guardians, so I'm here." Rhys simple aswered.

Koganei had arrived to school early and sat there quietly, he had seen a lot of what had happened today and it was quite surprising for so much to happen in one day.

Devin who had been sleeping up until this point had just woken up to join the class.

Haine walked through the halls, heading for the roof. It wasn't like anyone would stop him. He'd heard that ten generations ago there'd been a crazy student enforcer at this school, who kept everyone in line. "Heh, I bet I could take him," he said aloud. What was with people anyway? They all wanted something from you. To do something for them. To stay out of their way. Other people had only ruined his life before, and they would do so again. "I don't even know why i go to that stupid place." But he was lying. He knew exactly why he went there, and hated himself for it. Soft feelings make you weak, others will jump to take advantage of you and then where will you be? Dead, or worse. He looked around him, and up at the sky. He felt more at peace here, He leaned back against the wall and slept.

Vlad stared out the window, he was in the middle of math class. He found it far more boring than anything he has ever had to sit through. He then saw Ikuma, the head of the diplomacy committee walking around the school grounds. Vlad wanted to know what the guy was doing, but if he wanted to sneak out. He would need a distraction, Vlad took a piece of paper and balled it up and put a few random objects in it to make it heavier. He then opened the window, wide enough so he could climb out. He grabbed his book bag and threw it out the window. He waited for the teacher to turn around and face the board and he then threw the paper ball at a student in the front and the student shouted out, and turned to look and when the teacher walked over to the student Vlad climbed out the window quickly. Vlad climbed down the side of the school and then grabbed his bag, he slug it over his shoulder and walked toward the direction he saw Ikuma last.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Ikuma was on a mission, some students had been causing trouble in the gym. Ikuma arrived to see four big male students picking on a smaller one. Ikuma walked over to them and they looked at him, they all showed fear. Ikuma could smell it on them, after a few minutes of just staring the four ran. But Ikuma wasn’t going to let them off just like that. He ran after them, he neared the slowest one and he jumped into the air and pounced on him like a lion. The other three then turned, looked at their friend. They couldn’t leave him behind, they all rushed at Ikuma. He looked up at them, his eyes like a wolf’s staring at its prey. He stood on his feet and pressed his right foot down on the, boy he had pounced on so he couldn’t get up. The three others began to attack Ikuma, but they were so weak compared to him that he just dodged them. Ikuma was beginning to get annoyed, he wanted strong opponents and these three were far from what he wanted.

He looked at the one on his left, and he thrusted his palm into his chest and sent him flying. He then turned to the in front of him and head butted him, the student fell to the ground unconscious. When he got to the last one he took his right foot off the student on the ground and he kicked the last student into the wall. He then looked at the one of the ground, he then kicked him in the side and walked away. As he walked toward the exit, the smaller boy walked up to him and said “Thank you.” Ikuma looked at him and said “you wouldn’t need my help if you were stronger, weaklings like you make me sick.” Ikuma then left and walked toward the big tree that he liked to sit under. When he got there, Vlad was sitting in it. Because he wasn’t moving, Ikuma couldn’t see him. But he could smell him, everyone had a different smell and Ikuma made sure he memorized them all. Ikuma was angry, this was his favorite tree and now it had been violated by the smell of someone else. Ikuma ran toward the tree, when he got to the tree trunk he used it to climb up to the branch Vlad was on. But by the time he had gotten up there, Vlad had jumped off and ran away. Ikuma jumped down, the wind was blowing and the smell was all over the place. He wouldn’t be able to follow Vlad now. Ikuma leaned against the tree and began plotting what he would do when he found Vlad.

Kiyoshi stared, today seemed like a really bad day. She hoped it wouldn't get worse as the day went on, she would have offered to go with Ren, but it seemed he wanted to be alone, Kiyoshi didn't really want to walk out of class now...she would feel bad. Kinda made her wonder what was up with everyone in the class. Besides, she was famous for being good in class...not that she was a goody two shoes out of class, but in class she always was behaved, which made teachers like her more. Maybe she could try talking to some of these kids after class was over? Maybe not Haine though...the other's seemed more approachable.

'God, Why do you hate me very much!'Ren mentally complained. He looked around but it seems no one really heard the alarm. 'Are they here already? No. There are other assassins here already! Where will I find them?' He formulated a plan in his head.

He ran towards the dojo. 'Hmm....This brings back memories. It's the last mission that I did and the first mission that I failed. Before that happened. Looks like I'm already in the dojo.' He said to himself as he take a look on his surroundings. The room was filled with 10 masked people. The mask was the symbol of the association, they were all rummaging in the dojo. Ren clapped so he could gain their attention. It was the clap of his Father. Because his Father was a sure high-ranking officer. Even if it disgusts him, he still did it to protect the Mouto's and their secret. After all it was the Master (Hidezaku's father) who helped him start a new life in Japan. He's willing to protect the Mouto's and their secret even if it means he will destroy his cover and join the conflict.

As expected they all looked at the source of the signal-clap. He raised an eyebrow when he saw one of them were shocked and the others were sweating bullets. But he just shrugged it off and started attacking, after all his first lesson was "You must hit the enemy where are they weak the most." Of course they retaliated, but they were still not just experienced and skilled as Ren. After several minutes, all of them are dead except one. This was the one who looked at him. He put one of his foot on the still-masked man's ribcage and started questioning, "If you ever lie or not answer me, I will crush one of your ribs. And if you answer me truthfully and quickly I will not kill you. First question, who are you?" The masked man gulped and answered, "Kaiten Asia." If ever Ren was shocked at his answer he never showed it, instead his eyes turned red and kicked the man's -now identified as Kaiten- rib making sure one of it broke.

Then he shouted angrily "Liar! That monster never had a relative! My mother already died! And I'm an only CHILD!. You could see in Ren's eyes all of his bottled emotion, such as rage, anger, sadness, frustration and the one that shone brightly above all was HATRED. Kaiten now, was sure he can piss his pants. Never before he had seen such an intense hatred, normally he would taunt them but seeing his situation he decided against it. After one minute of calming, Ren's eyes turned back to normal. Then he looked at Kaiten with a superior gaze, "How?". Kaiten looked afraid, he steeled himself and answered "I'm a child of one night stand." This time Ren looked shocked. Then he smirked and said "After Mother died he did that....He's really a bastard of a father isn't he?" Even though he looked okay, any expert would say he was already in the verge of breakdown. And Kaiten was an expert but he didn't said anything. "Okay, let's stop getting into the past. Next question, why are you here?"
"To know, the secret of the Mouto fighting style. And it's weakness"
"Typical." Ren murmured. After several minutes of questioning, "Now, I'm gonna left you alive. Tell to your superior that you're the only survivor, which is true. That the Master of the Mouto fighting style defeated you all single-handed. Remember this, I didn't kill you because you're my relative, half-brother in fact. But if ever you get in my way, Shinigami's door is waiting for you. Please tell my father that prepare for hell!" Ren said with conviction. Though he said it, his eyes tells a different story. It was full of pain, hatred and misery but what is the most shocking was it was sparkling with fossilized tears. Then he left.

Ren wasn't fairing so well. He went back to the garden finding the exit. But his feet was heavy and his mind was in turmoil. Half of his mind tells him to breakdown and the other half tells him not to breakdown. He slumped against the trunk of the largest tree he found. That eventful day, Ren decided to let his tears flow freely. That day just like any other human, Ren breakdown and cried himself to sleep.

(Is my character good? Is my grammar okay? Mouto-Guy PLEASE POST I CAN"T POST IF YOU DON'T POST!!)

Leon was a bit confused, by followed the little kid anyways. "Uh.. I'm supposed to be back in--" he started to say.
"Shut up." Thad replied, cutting him off as the two ended up at the roof of the school. "Alright kid, what I'm goin to tell you right now is serious so listen."
"Kid? You're the kid here." Leon muttered sitting down so he was eye level with Thad. Completely ignoring him, Thad continued on. "Like I said before. I work for the mafia. In this case, the Vongola family. Right now I'm in the search of the 20th boss, and his guardians.. one in which is you. The others are your classmates."
Leon placed a hand in front of Thad's face. "Whoa hold it. If this is all about your little mafia game, I'm leaving." he said ready to get up. That was when the silver haired kid pulled out a gun and pulled the trigger, barely missing Leon. Shocked, Leon fell back to where he was sitting. "This is a school!!!!" he yelled. "What the hell are the people going to think when they--" again he was cut off by a kick on the head.

"You talk too much. Dont worry, you're the only one who can hear this. Anyways, moving on. You're the Vongola's Storm guardian. Take this." he said tossing a ring at him. "That's yours you keep. Dont loose it. Afterall, it's priceless. Now, I came here to ask you for help. I'll explain more when we find the other guardians. I dont feel like repeating it over and over. Here's the list, now go." With that a small dragon flew over, picking Thad up and flying off.
Speechless, Leon just sat there, watching as the kid disappeared.

At the same time, the bell rang... telling the school was now over.

Devin used the bathroom as an excuse to get out of class because she was bored and really didn't feel like being in class today, so she went to the roof. She seen a boy from her class and a baby, Thad to be exact her Family's hitman. "So what's going on?" she asked Leon as she sat down, Leon like the whole class probably thought she was a boy, not that she gave them a reason to think otherwise.


OOC

Sorry it's just I can't come up with anything to type, that's why it's so short. Nobody else is really posting.

Haine woke up to hear a baby's voice. 'What is a baby doing on the roof?' he thought. The "baby" and the voice of another boy were talking about mafia, something about a hitman, and guardians of some sort. He'd dealt with mafia before, back in Italy. Many were weak and small, pure pretenders and the like. But every now and then you'd hear about the actions of one of the 'True' mafia. Those mafia were to be left alone. 'But here in Japan? Like hell anyone's going to start a mafia here. Its probably some jacked up yakuza bunch. Standing up, he looked across the roof for the source of the baby's voice. He saw a boy and a girl sitting a bit off to the side.
"Hey, whats all this I hear about mafia going on?" Haine was quick to start conversation. Haine looked them over, noting that the girl was wearing the male uniform and could be easily mistaken for a boy. "And why are you dressed as a guy?" Haine was rude on purpose, anyone worth anything would be offended. most people in the world were quite useless and a waste of time and space. He only considered those who would stand up to him worth his time.

"How do you know I am not a guy?!" snapped Devin sound and behaving like herself which her voice when angry wasn't the most feminine and was more demonic-like then anything. Devin punched the guy in the face so hard it would break the average person's bones, in this case the nose or jaw. After that Devin just jumped off the roof and caught a tree branch to stop her fall before landing on the ground on her feet. She went over to the school gate and hoped on it to wait till everybody left.

Haine wasn't expecting that. He'd been knocked off his feet from the blow. Standing up, he muttered, "Serves me right for getting caught off guard. This is going to bruise." If it had been a guy who'd punched him like that he wouldn't have hesitated to retaliate, but she was a girl. He loved to fight, and if an excuse presented itself to him, he wouldn't hesitate to fight another guy. "Shit, i didn't know she'd react like that, did you?" He was addressing the boy next to him now. "After all, its obvious enough from the way she carries herself, and a few other quirks a guy wouldn't have. Its all a matter of being observant." Realizing he was being relatively nice to someone he just met, he checked himself. "Anyway, I never said you could come up on MY roof in the first place. So you'll have to fight for it."

Misami continued to stare off into space in class. She barely supressed a yawn as Mr. Hakami turned back to the board. She really was doing her best, but it was just so dreadfully...dull. Overall, it seemed like her life in Japan could fit that description. Just plain dull. It was ordinary, almost the same as it had been outside of Riems. She felt like she needed something new and exciting to spice up her life again. As the sword had done so long ago. It wasn't that she was getting bored with the blade, it was just that... well... she felt like Japan would be a bigger change for her. But after she got used to being near a city all of the time, it turned out to be the same old day in and day out cycle. Although worse with Estelle, her best friend, many time zones away.

Oh, and that wasn't all that had changed. The new addition of her father to the family was not a welcome change either. He always seemed so uptight around her, refusing to see her carry a sword, much less unsheath one. And on multiple occasions she had put up quite a fit when he had tried to take it from her by force. But she figured it couldn't be all bad. Her brothers seemed to be enjoying having a father figure and it seemed like her little sister just was nervous around him for whatever reason. It was just her: the black sheep that seemed to be left out.

Misami sighed softly as she returned her gaze to the board from the tree it had been previously occupied on, Mr. Hakami turned around. And this time HE sighed as a bell rang. "Time to go home everybody.We'll continue this tomorrow" And immediately Misami began to pack her tings. However as she began to exit the classroom behind all of the other students, she was beckoned over to Mr. Hakumi's desk. "Misami? Could you please try to find those students that left and give them a general idea of what happened in class. If you can't that is fine, but if you find them, that would be great. Actually wait a minute, forget about telling them about the lesson. If you find them, tell them that they're staying after school tomorrow to make up the lesson." And Misami was suddenly glad she had not gotten caught in the mass exodus of the class. An extra lesson after school? She was afraid she would fall asleep during the day, much less after school.

Although, to his initial question, Misami nodded an afirmitave, much to the pleasure of Mr. Hakami. But as she began to think on this further, se wished more and more that she had refused to find the four classroom ruaways. How was SHE supposed to know where they were.

Misami decided to look for Devin first, since they had actually given a destination. And she quickly popped into the girls bathroom before it occored to her that Devin may be a male. It sure was a male sounding name. Then, thouroughly embarrased she left. She couldn't exactly check the boy's bathroom so she decided to look for the other punk that left. Wherever he was was anyone's guess. But from her common sense, the roof would be a good place to start as any.

As she exited onto the roof, Misami looked over at her first target. Leon. He was over at the side of the roof with... a baby!? What the heck!? It must be a baby brother or something, that must be why he skipped class. Misami walked up behind him, completely missing noticing Haine, who still hadn't stood back up from Devin's damage. "Leon! Mr. Hakami wanted me to find you. It's nice and all to look after your baby brother, but there are people who you can hire for that. You shouldn't have to skip class." She paused, realizing how much of an arrogant snob she muct seem like right now, standing there lecturing him. "Anyway, I don't really care though. Mr. Hakumi told me to find the four refugees and tell them they were staying after school tomorrow."
