Don't you dare fall asleep
Nana p.o.v.
In the quiet town of Namimori, the Sawada household was peaceful. Sawada Nana was making breakfast and she was smiling while quietly humming to herself. Her short brown hair swayed softly with her movements. She was busying herself with packing a bento for her probably still sleeping daughter. While she was packing the orange bento her sleeve rode up and exposed her wrist. Wrapped around her wrist was what could only be called a tattoo for the unobservant people. It was an armband which looked like I was made by a toddler. Some of the knots where wrong or were tangled with other threads. What stood out from it was the bright orange color and the lionhead that clasped both sides together. When Nana saw her wrist she simply shined with happiness and her smile that was usually bright grew even brighter. She traced the wristband with her fingers gently before pulling down her sleeves. What she didn't see was that the bracelet flickered just the slightest bit when it came into contact with her sleeves.
While she finished her last steps for breakfast she glanced at the clock. "Ah, Mi-chan is going to be late again." She sighed while shaking her head fondly. She placed the last dishes on the table and looked fondly at the covered edge. If there was one thing that differed her household to the rest of the town it would be that every single edge in the house was covered in a soft foam like material, specially made to soften impact. The floor was also covered in a soft carpet that Nana knew was enjoyable to nap upon, though that was her secret. She walked in soft yet confident steps to the stairs. Placing her hands to the sides of her mouth she shouted: "MI-CHAN!" She waited a few seconds for a reply from her daughter.
When she did not hear even the slightest groan, she began climbing the steps. She took care while walking as the stairs where more heavily covered in foam then the rest of the house. Everything was covered just so that if you fell down the stairs you wouldn't hurt yourself badly. At the top there was even a children's fence which was also padded in foam. She closed the fence behind her and made her way to her daughter's room. Her daughter's door was closed, but she could easily make out the alarm that was blaring at its highest volume. She worriedly thought that this may be a bad day even though it was getting better the last few days.
She slowly opened the door. The curious thing was that this door opened towards the hallway. Inside was what could only be called pillow heaven. The floor was basically a large mattress, with pillows and blankets in every color strewn around. On the side was a bit unnecessary bed. Against the wall was a bookcase and desk. The edges carefully covered, and all objects didn't stray from their designed spots. In front of the desk was a large plush chair, specifically designed that it would be comfortable no matter the position. At the window an alarm was loudly blaring while displaying the time. It was set upon an army trumpet and she carefully walked to it to turn the alarm off. With every step her feet sunk into the softness which made it a bit difficult to walk upright. Next to the alarm there was a small soft table for friends when they finished. She turned around and there lay here daughter. She was slumped against the dresser, halfway dressed, soundly asleep.
She let out a sigh, this was definitely a bad day for her daughter. Usually her cute daughter could stay awake long enough to dress herself and come downstairs. Apparently today would be bad enough that her little Mi-chan couldn't even dress herself. She walked to her daughter and shook her. Kneeling at her side Nana first called out and progressively became louder. "Mi-chan, Miku-chan, Sawada Miku!" No reaction, she began to shake her daughter and call out at the same time. She began to use all the other methods she knew that worked from experience. Water for instance would have no effect other than making her daughter and everything else wet. Pinching didn't work, just like moving and shaking her. Nana sighed, it seemed that there was only one option left and she didn't particularly like that option. In fact, almost on the entire earth it was a sign of abuse or extreme disrespect. Sadly, it seemed it was the only option left for her daughter. She really hoped They could forgive her.
She steeled and grabbed her daughter by her forearms. Her daughter's body twitched as if she decided to put her finger in the electrical socket. Releasing her daughter, she saw Mi-chan slowly blink and sit up. "Good morning Mi-chan" It took her daughter a few seconds to come up with a reply and it was still in a slow drawl. "Morning Mom" Slowly rubbing her forearms her daughter got up and began dressing herself again.
Meanwhile Nana left the room and went downstairs to look at the folder again. It came in a few days ago and was about a home tutor and how they would make your child the leader of the next generation. It was a cliché line and she wasn't too sure to trust it, but they asked only as payment housing and food. There was also to consider that her daughter could use some help in school…
Not exactly that Mi-chan did not understand any of the subject, but more in the way that she always fell asleep while making tests and sleeping while doing homework. Maybe the tutor would have a way to keep her cute daughter awake. She slightly hummed to herself as she watched her daughter slowly make her way to the breakfast table. While they were having breakfast Miku seemed to be a little more awake and only almost faceplanted in her food twice. Both times which Nana prevented.
"Mi-chan?" Her daughter stopped eating and placed all her attention on Nana. She loved that about her daughter. When she spoke, her daughter would always try her best to stay awake and focus as much as possible on her. However, she could already see the eyelids drooping. "I am hiring a home tutor for you" A blink. "I know you don't need one." Another blink. "But maybe they can help you study and stay awake through a test" She said with a hopeful smile. Her daughter gave a small nod in consent.
She was already used to the sparse words or no words Miku used. When Miku was very small ('until she was four' whispered a dark voice in her head 'before He came') she used to chatter quite a bit, if she wasn't babbling about how pretty the clouds were then she was sleeping as she had the tendency to fall asleep everywhere even then. Later however she went quiet, more withdrawn, tired and sleepy when she was awake and not only before she fell asleep. It was as if someone stole the fire away from Nana's daughter that kept her up and about when she was not asleep. When the change happened, it was more difficult as she would sleep more often and not have the energy to do small things. When she was around 7 years old her energy was sapped even further. She can't stay awake for a prolonged amount of time, which was usually an hour and even if she was awake, she couldn't do much.
Nana did all she could to keep her energy levels up or even to keep her awake. When she couldn't, she made sure her daughter was safe. That was also why the house was severely padded so that her daughter would not hurt herself in any way when she would suddenly fall asleep. Energy drinks or nutritional food did not really have an outward effect, but it did make her daughter feel better and she looked healthier afterwards. Nana really did wonder where all the energy went to if not to her daughter. Hearing the doorbell, she stood up. "That must be the tutor? Try not to fall asleep, Mi-chan?" Her daughter nodded sleepily, and Nana really hoped she would stay awake for a few more minutes. She also decided to call Kyo-kun later as it was too dangerous for her daughter to walk the streets like this. Reaching the door, she opened it and looked around. Frowning she as she saw nothing and glanced downwards only to stop in surprise on her doorstep was a baby in a suit with a fedora on top of his head. "Ciaossu"

Reborn p.o.v.
Looking at the file that he got from the Vongola about his new student, he frowned slightly. It was pretty standard if not for the glaring holes that were present in the file. He sighed and looked it over again. Her name was Miku Sawada or actually Sawada Miku. Age was 14 years. She was failing school rather miserably, he needed to change that. Was noted down as unenthusiastic, unmotivated, lazy, friendless and disrespectful. Qualities he needed to change if they were actually correct.
From his observations the last few days she actually has friends she spends time with, or more actually sleeps next to. In all his observations she spends more time sleeping than doing everything else. She was never active and always sleeping. Something that was not natural, yet there was no note of a medical situation in the report. He even looked up the food that was being served and everything was nutritious and even from the too much energy giving kind. She should be an energizer bunny or extremely active with the amount of energy drinks and coffee she got, yet she was neither.
He would investigate it while tutoring. Her hobbies where noted down as sleeping and lazing around, which he didn't think was correct as he had already spotted several drawings and notebooks. Another hole and this clearly meant that he couldn't trust the information provided. There was also the glaring lack of information provided about her soulmates. No information if she has found a soulmate, no information on how many she had or if she had them. Of course, this information was usually kept secret and not said aloud, but there should be some information provided, especially as it was made by the CEDEF.
Her body profile was mostly correct. She had light-brown hair till around her shoulders, a delicate face, doe-brown eyes and a petit build. However, what was not provided was that she wore the male uniform instead of the female one, which he partly understood as she often fell asleep and then it would not be nice if people could look up her skirt. It also had the side-effect that most of the population thought she was male. It was probably supported by the fact that students almost never saw her face as she was asleep, and she hadn't really gone through puberty yet.
Suddenly a sadly familiar pain raced through him and he grit his teeth against it. One day he would find the ones that are abusing his soulmate and he would give them an unimageable hell before putting a bullet in their heads. He would make it as painful as possible and then there are the things the Others would do for this regression. Ten years, ten years had gone by while his soulmate was being tortured, abused. He rubbed his forearms trying to get rid of the lingering pain that swept through them. He would make them pay for what they did to HIS soulmate.
He began to make his way to a neighboring tree that had a perfect view of the kitchen. Inside he could see the form of the mother, Sawada Nana, sweet but oblivious or so the report said. She had currently successfully prevented his future student from faceplanting in her food. The entire situation just didn't sit well with him. He also had the vague feeling that even if he tried to shoot her, she still wouldn't move a muscle. 'She wouldn't even move a muscle if she was chased by bears' he thought as he eyed the brunet from his perch on a neighboring tree.
He could see her trying to stay awake. The usual movements, blinking, pinching herself, trying her hardest to just not fall asleep. Sadly, a useless effort as he could see her slumping forward, about to faceplant in her food for the second time. Nana proved herself to be an amazing mother again as she prevented for the second time that her daughter got a make-out session with her food. That worried him actually. Nana was written down in the report as totally oblivious, that she didn't recognize any danger if it presented herself and that she was hopelessly naïve. Yet she noticed her daughter's situation as everything in the home was sleepy teenager proof. She caught her daughter with fast reflexes when she fell asleep. Too fast for someone who does not notice things.
The thing that betrayed the mother the most was her eyes. They were sharp and focused, yet sometimes the opposite. He needed to investigate that too. What he didn't understand is that somehow the head of CEDEF could not even write a correct report about his own wife! He was almost certain the only reason she accepted the offer of a tutor was because of her daughter. Which means he needed to go for an alternate approach. Not what he first planned.
He spied through the window again, reading the lips of the mother while she spoke to her daughter. She was talking about him. He made sure his suit was as pristine as always and jumped out of the tree. He straightened himself and approached the front door. Innocent genius baby would not work, genius dwarf in search of a job probably would. He knocked rang the doorbell. As expected, the mother opened the door. She looked around searchingly with wide brown eyes. When she glanced down, he could see her freeze in shock.
"Ciaossu"

The name Miku can mean both beautiful sky, beautiful long time or future!
Also a warning as I do not if this will stay a one-shot or will be continued. I hope you liked it!... and all the foreshadowing. :)
