A/N: So I know I said I would update more, I lied, or more like I broke my promise, but hey here is an update. After getting so many people who actually like this fan fiction how can I say no. So here is my attempt on continuing this fic. (Keep in mind that I am now on a mac so spell check may change things and I don't have a beta, Also keep in mind that it has been a long time since I read and watched Reborn and this fic so there might be mistakes, please feel free to point out mistakes)

~Time and place~

'Thoughts'

"Talking"

~Oro Base-Verde's Lab Oct 17 10:00 am~

Verde never once thought that he would work for the mob. But then again he never thought he would get turned into an child. At least he still has his brilliant mind. At the moment he was running simulations of the Oro family fighting the Vongola.

As much as he hates to admit it. As they are now Oro doesn't stand a ghost of a chance. He decided to add the new weapon he is developing into the simulation. Their chances increased but without proper training they will have to keep a low profile.

Also he needed to come up with a better way of calling out the flames in Tsuna and the others. Currently only three out of seven can call on the power of the flames and those three all have worked in the mafia.

Soon Granger came in with some food and sat next to him. "Do we have a chance?"

Verde whirled around and ate some of the rice from lunch prepared for him. "I want to say yes but the truth is we need help."

"I will tell Ginger to call in some favors." Granger sat with him until all the food was gone. "We have to find a way to help them. After everything Yamigura-sama gave us, we owe it to them."

Verde paused in his typing and only said, "Yes we do don't we."

~Sawada Household 4:00 pm~

Tsukiya was trying to understand the situation he was in. A kid, Basil, has just told him Xanxus was coming to kill him in order to get the Vongola rings. The looks on Gokudera's, Yamamoto's and Reborn's face looked grim. "What are we going to do?" he asks

"That is for you to decide. You can train and win this fight, train and lose, or run away." Reborn tells him, "Let me tell you though two of those options are not for any student of mine."

"So we need to win," Yamamoto says, "It's a game we can't afford to lose."

"Idiot this isn't a game!" Gokudera yells, "If we lose Tenth could die!"

"So we won't lose." Yamamoto replies. His eyes shine with determination even as he smiles.

"I guess we can't lose, not this time." Tsukiya looks at his friends, then Basil and at last Reborn who nods.

"One more thing, the Ninth wants you to be careful around some of your classmates."

"Why?"

"Find out for yourself, I can't give you all the answers. How will you learn?" Reborn then puts a large stack of papers in front of all four boys. "Speaking of learning you all must finish this in one hour. Ciao ciao." he says as he disappears into one of his secret passages.

'Reborn you devil!' Tsukiya yells in his mind as he sees one of the questions being 'How do you disarm a bomb using only a bottle of nail polish?'

~Oro Base-Training Room 4: 20~

Today's training involved finding the weapon that spoke to them. "You see, every fighter has a weapon that they favor. This weapon is an extension of yourself and should be a reflection of you are." Tanaki explained.

"What do you use Nii-san." Tsuna asked.

"I am glad you aced Tsuna," Tanaki pulled out a small dagger, "Quick, effective, but strength and skill are needed to use it to it full potential." he explained, "At least that is what my teacher told me."

Tsuna looked like he wanted to ask more questions but then the walls around the room opened. Revealing every weapon known to man and some not known as well. Verde showed up standing on top of his alligator (crocodile). "You will all go one by one trying each weapon, you will know what is right for you but in case you don't I will tell you. First will be Lee."

Lee walked up to the staff first. "Who do I do?"

"Oh right, forgot to tell you. Fight those." Tanaki pointed to some robotic dummies.

Lee nodded and jumped in. Two minutes later Verde added the data and said, "Good, but not great. Let's try something else."

It took three tries before Lee felt a new strength when he used a pair of Kamas. "This one. This is it." He said.

"Yes I believe it is." Verde felt the energy and knew it would only take a few nudges along the way to get Lee to ignite his flame. "Okay next is Noah."

Noah swallowed and shook his head. "I-I can't fight. I barely started training and-"

"Go for it, it can't hurt." Riyo told him

Noah looked like he was going to protest some more until a glare from Verde stopped him in his tracks. He went up to the weapons and wondered what could he use. He saw a small pick. He picked it up and imminently regret it because the dummies were back.

This one took longer than Lee's until he choose a curved bow and arrows. He missed more than he hit but the more times he aimed the better his shots got.

"Finally, I thought he would never get anything." Sora complained only to get kicked by Al.

"Your turn then Sora." Verde announced.
Sora pulled his family sword out, he grew into the habit of taking it everywhere after Tanaki's training style of stealing loved objects. Before he could take out the first dummy Verde said, "Ok you are done Al, you are up."

"What the hell! I thought it was my turn!" Sora yelled.

Verde pushed his glasses up. "It was, now it is not. You have your weapon, now let Al find his." Sora cursed under his breath and sat back down.

Al looked at all the weapon, thought about what he is good at, he started with a mace that led to a humiliating minute of him trying to swing and it flying out of his hand and landing only a foot a way from him.

Eventually he choose a staff, the three-section staff. He found he likes pretending he is a ninja, but after he hit head for the third time, Verde made him stop. "It might be the weapon you will use but let's make sure you don't kill yourself instead of your enemies."

Riyo was up next and choose a whip. Losing quick enough she tries weapon after weapon using more than Noah did. "Sun is always the hardest. It is not meant for combat because it would help the enemy." Tanaki said as he watched his sister fail to use a war hammer.

"What do you mean?" Tsuna asked. "You mean our flames can be used to fight right?"

Tanaki got in teaching mode and decided to explain. "Every flame had an ability that can be used to enhance your fighting strength.

"Storm is Disintegration, decaying and breaking apart anything, Rain is Appeasement and Dulling, weakening the enemy by stealing their strength, Lighting is Hardening making things stronger in both defense and offense, Cloud is Reproduction and Growth, it can reproduce a large amount of weapons and some even steal other flames, and Mist is Construction, creating something from nothing.

"All of our flames have a use in battle that would work well with a weapon, Sun does best in hand to hand situations though because if an enemy gets hit by Sun flames they will heal. Sun is Stimulating and augmenting." Tanaki explains.

"What about Sky?" Noah asks.

"Sky is Harmony, it can nullify our flames, there are two types, soft and hard. soft is more pure and stable. Hard sky flames are volatile and could knock out half of the school. Some even say the Sky flame could take other flames and make it their own."

Before they can dwell on anything Tanaki said they hear a robot explode. "Throwing knives, remind you of anyone?" Verde asks.

Tanaki rolls his eyes and curses that guy out in his head. "Tsuna go." Tsuna yelps but hurries along.

He was scared. He couldn't see himself using a weapon. Not to hurt someone. Even his own blood family. He choose a dagger like Tanaki and tries to fight using it.

He then tries a sword, dynamite, some tonfas, a gun, a trident. Nothing was working. Then he saw some gloves that looked out of place in the mix. "Combact gloves, an invention I am working on. You can try it if you want but I can't make it work like I want them to." Verde tells him.

He tries them on, and…nothing. He runs around the battle arena waiting for the two minute timer to go off so he could pick a new weapon. He doesn't notice one of the dummies firing an explosive at him. Missing and hitting the weapons display near Tanaki and the others on the other side of the room. Knocking down the other explosives surrounding the others. It would have been fine if one of the heads of the grenade didn't break off. And only Tsuna notices.

The others are shaking off the dust and checking for any new injuries. Tsuna is filled with a feeling of dread at the idea of seeing his friends and family die, but he is tired and hurt from the constant beatings from the dummies. He will never make it in time to get to the others, they might not hear him yell even if he could. He lost his voice to the fear.

'Please, I have to save them. Please, I can't lose them. Not like this. Not now. Let it be me instead. Someone give me the strength to save them. Please.'

A new energy filled him as he flung himself across the room to where the others were. The others stare in shock as they see Tsuna fly towards them. He grabs the grenade and throws it to the other side of the room. The explosion shook the walls but otherwise everyone was okay.

"Um, Tsuna. You are on fire." Noah said.

"I have never seen anything like this. I have heard about it but never saw it. This is amazing." Tanaki said.

Verde was busy trying to get all the data and holding back from trapping his future boss to a table and dissecting him.
The flames died and Tsuna nearly collapses but Sora and Al catch him. "What?"
"You just activated you dying will flame. A pure flame. You saved us." Tanaki explained. "This means you were willing to die protecting us."
"Are you okay Tsuna?" Riyo asks

"I think, ow, no." He says. Riyo stops her brother from going on a rant about how great this is and takes them all to the healing room to enjoy and nice break.

~Above the skies of Nanamori~

A bird flies and searches for the place he was meant to go. He had a letter to deliver. A letter his master the Ninth Boss of Vongola asked him send. He asked before his son took him away. The bird lands on a windowsill on the second floor of a small Bakery.

A/N: I wanted to add more but it is 4:17, I am sick and this is long enough. So this is for you who wanted to know about Tsuna finding the gloves and such. Also I choose the weapons I thought most suited for their fighting style, plus personality and flame type. I got all the flame information from the Reborn wiki. I will see you all sooner then last time. Good night/morning.
