The Azure Sky

Chapter 1: Falling

'Everyone...'
In the middle of a bloody clearing, laid a brunet.  He was bleeding out.  Dying...
His narrowed sunset eyes closed, he sighed deeply before letting out a sad chuckle.
"Ah...Reborn would've killed me for dying..like...this."
Sawada Tsunayoshi.  That was the brunet's name.  The Decimo of the most influential mafia famiglia, the Vongola.  The Sky of the Storm, Rain, Sun, Lightning, Mist and Cloud.
But now...he was dying.
He lost...everything.  From his blood family...to his mafia family.  Everything was gone.
Tsuna sighed.
"Well...I guess I'll...be meeting..them...soon..."
Sunset eyes closed, and the Vongola Decimo breathed his last.
~~
BEEP!  BEEP!  BEEP!  Slam!
A pale hand smacked the top of an alarm clock, promptly shutting it off.  A groan followed up, and bleary, sunset eyes opened before widening in surprise.
Tsuna sat up quickly, brushing his long, brown bangs out of his face as he looked at the room he was in.
The room was completely cluttered; trash and dirty clothes everywhere.  But Tsuna chose to ignore it for now and walked up to the bathroom of the small apartment he was apparently in.
Tsuna was not prepared for the sight of him--heck, he thought a zombie invaded his bathroom once he spotted himself.
The brunet rubbed his face tiredly.
"Dang...I never looked this bad before..."
Suddenly, there was a flash of orange appearing next to Tsuna as the brunet jumped as far away as he could, bringing his hands up in a fighting stance.
"Tsunayoshi."
The said brunet blinked in surprise when his eyes met similar orange; he went out of his fighting stance.
"Primo-san..."
The blonde smiled softly, his cape shifting as he did so.
"Now, now...I told you to call me Giotto."
Tsuna couldn't help but smile in return.
"Hai, Giotto-san."
Giotto smiled once more, although it was a bit sad this time, noticed by Tsuna who went into 'boss' mode.
"Where am I, Giotto-san?"
The Primo of Vongola hesitated slightly before opening his mouth.
"You are in an alternate world, Tsunayoshi.  You are not Decimo in this world, but someone else is."
Tsuna blinked and blinked again, slumping to the ground.
"Another world..."
Giotto panicked slightly, crouching next to Tsuna.
"Are...the same Guardians here?"
The blonde blinked in surprise before responding.
"Yes...Gokudera Hayato, Yamamoto Takeshi, Sasagawa Ryohei, Bovino Lambo, Rokudo Mukuro, Dokuro Chrome, and Hibari Kyoya.  Reborn is also here, sadistic as ever."
Giotto tried to punch humor in the last line as he watched his successor with worried eyes.  Tsuna began to shake, his bangs covering his eyes, worrying Giotto further.
"Tsu--"
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Giotto gaped when Tsuna started to laugh but quickly frowned when he saw the tears trailing down the brunet's cheeks.
"Tsunayoshi..."
Tsuna took a shuddering breath and calmed down.
"I-I'm sorry.  J-Just hearing t-that they're a-all alive is--I-I'm glad."
Giotto blinked in surprise before smiling, bringing his successor into a one-armed hug; they sat in a comfortable silence.
Giotto then glanced at the clock that hung in the bathroom, widening his eyes slightly.
"Oh dear..."
Tsuna raised his head and craned his head towards Giotto, watching the other curiously.
"What is it?"
Giotto hummed before smiling cheerfully.
"In this world...you're a teacher at Namimori High--and well...you're late for school."
Tsuna blinked before shooting up to his feet.
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME BEFORE?!  IF KYOYA'S THERE, HE'LL BITE ME TO DEATH!"
Giotto watched as the brunet rushed to get his clothes on, dashing out the door.  The blonde chuckled before disappearing in an orange glow of light.
"Live this life well, Tsunayoshi.  Protect your guardians with all of your power and mind.  Don't let this chance go to waste."
