Ryu- Well, this is a prize for the winner of my contest in my other fic. This is only a two-shot. I hope you enjoy.


Carnivore Turned Herbivore

Today, was like any other day. Get woken up by a kick from Reborn, having your breakfast eaten by Reborn, and an occasional threat from Reborn.

Though one thing did seem abnormal, Lambo's ten-year bazooka seemed to be sending off sparks for some reason, but Tsuna just shrugged it off and left for school.

The walk toward school seemed normal as well, meeting up with Gokudera and hearing the usual "Tenth". Then Yamamoto would come and Gokudera would go into insult mode.

But when they reached school, everything was absolutely different. Hibari seemed like he was in a foul mood, well, it always seemed like he was in a foul mood, but today, Hibari was "disciplining" a lot of students, and the school bell hadn't even rung yet.

"I wonder whats wrong with Hibari?" Yamamoto said. "Well, it's best to leave him alone." Tsuna said as he, Yamamoto, and Gokudera started walking, but they were stopped when they heard a child's voice.

"Hey Tsuna-baka, you forgot you bento!" Lambo shouted as he came running, but he didn't see the stone on the sidewalk, so as soon as he reached it, he tripped and fell on his face.

Lambo looked to be on the verge of tears, but he somehow stopped himself from crying.

"Gotta, stay, calm." Lambo said, but he didn't stay calm. He took out the ten year bazooka, which was still sending out sparks, and started crying and running toward Tsuna with the bazooka in hand.

"Lambo, I don't think you should use that, actually, I don't think you should be running this way with that." Tsuna said as he ran out of the way as Lambo tripped and sent the bazooka flying, toward a certain prefect.

Too bad said prefect was too busy "disciplining" the students that he didn't notice the bazooka as it hit, and soon white smoke covered the spot where Hibari was.

"Hi-Hibari-san?" Tsuna said. When the smoke cleared, there was a boy who looked to be five to eight years old.

The boy looked around, confused. Then his eyes met Tsuna's, there was a moment of silence, then, the boy, who Tsuna assumed to be the younger version of Hibari, got up and started running.

"Hi-Hibari-san, wait!" Tsuna shouted as he ran after the younger Hibari. The younger Hibari surprisingly listened, which caused Tsuna to make an emergency stop on his face.

When Tsuna recovered, he saw the younger Hibari looking at him with fear.

"You're not going to take me away, are you?" The younger Hibari said. "Huh, why do you ask that?" Tsuna said. "Because the people at the orphanage always call me 'Hibari-san'." The younger Hibari said.

"What, no. It's just a habit of mine." Tsuna said as Gokudera arrived at Tsuna's side. "Tenth!" Gokudera said, this caused the younger Hibari to jump and hide behind Tsuna.

Tsuna noticed this and spoke. "Don't worry, he's just my friend." Hibari still looked hesitant.

"Five minutes have passed." Gokudera said. Silence hung in the air as Tsuna blinked. "What!" Tsuna shouted.

"I guess you have to take care of him until the bazooka's effects wear off or we figure out what to do." Reborn said as he suddenly appeared.

"What, why?" Tsuna said. "He's apart of your family, so it's your responsibility." Reborn said. "Fine, but what about school?" Tsuna said. "Don't worry, I've informed the Disciplinary Committee that Hibari will be having a meeting with you, so they should cover your absence." Reborn said.

Tsuna let out a sigh. "Fine. Come on Hibari-" Tsuna said before he stopped himself from saying the honorific. The younger Hibari hesitated, then complied.

As they walked, the younger Hibari seemed to become more clingy. He even began to hold onto Tsuna's hand more tightly.

Though the serious air was broken when a grumbling noise was heard. It was coming from the younger Hibari.

"Hibari, are you hungry." Tsuna said even though he thought it was weird to say Hibari's name without the honorific.

"No." The younger Hibari said even though it was plainly obvious he was. Tsuna sighed and looked for a restaurant. Then he spotted one, it said "Herbivorous and Carnivorous food." Tsuna's eye twitched at the name, but he shrugged seeing it was the only restaurant there.

So Tsuna led them to inside the restaurant and a waiter gave them menus. Hibari immediately began to look through the menu.

Tsuna sighed and began to look at the menu also, but stopped when he heard a voice.

"Um." Hibari began, and Tsuna knew that he had not given his name yet. "I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi, but you can call me Tsuna."

"Tsuna. What do these words mean?" The younger Hibari said as he showed Tsuna the menu. Tsuna saw the younger Hibari pointing to two words, which made his eye twitch again.

The words were "Herbivore and Carnivore." Nonetheless, Tsuna answered. "Herbivore means plant eater and carnivore means meat eater." Tsuna said.

"Oh." The younger Hibari said as he went back to looking at the menu.

Soon the younger Hibari picked out what he wanted and their orders were placed. First their drinks came, Hibari's drink was placed in front of him and Tsuna's drink landed on his head. Tsuna gave a small glare which Hibari caught a small glance at and the waiter apologized many times.

Tsuna brushed it off and soon another drink came free of charge. Though he was a little soaked, he tried not to show his anger in front of the younger Hibari.

After a couple minutes, their food came and they started eating. It was pretty much silent the whole time they ate, seeing as how the younger Hibari was much different from the older Hibari, so Tsuna didn't know how to react to the younger Hibari.

When they finished, Tsuna payed for all the food and they left the restaurant.
