~~~Academy for the LOSER'S~~~Chapter 1~~~

A brunet who looked the age of 16 gulped as he stared up at the large gates separating him from his new school… Or Academy. He didn't hear the bus he came from drive off, too entranced and shocked at the large Academy. His honey brown eyes scanned his surroundings, taking in the scenery. The Academy was blocked away from the rest of Society by huge, 50-foot white-colored bricked walls surrounding its entire perimeter, preventing any escape. The gate was also as tall as the walls, made of steel black with the initials N.M.A. on it in gold steel. Namimori Academy: A place where special kids were sent and trained.

Of course, the brunet, being the dense, clumsy, and clueless boy he was, had no idea why he was sent here.

'Am I special?' he thought. 'There's nothing special about me. I'm clumsy, and I have the worst grades in the entire planet.'

This boy was Sawada Tsunayoshi. He had wild and spiky, yet soft brown hair and eyes that were a different shade of brown. His parents had sent him to Namimori Academy for unknown reasons, telling him that it was 'a better place' for someone special like him.

He was going be completely honest here.

He was nervous.

Okay, so not just nervous. He was frightened, scared, freaked out, and completely confused.

First of all, he had no idea why he was sent here. Was his mentality that messed up for him to get sent here?

But he didn't know what kind of Academy it was. It seemed like one of those academies where crazy people were sent. He wasn't crazy. At least he was pretty sure he wasn't.

Tsuna sighed and dragged his luggage up to the gate, where two guards were standing. They both wore the same outfit: A blue uniform and cap with the initials N.M.A. then a badge below it. They both held guns, which intimidated Tsunayoshi a little bit. The two men, who were quietly chatting, saw the small brunet timidly walking up to them with his luggage and guessed that he was new.

"You new here, kid?" One of the guards, Tetsuya, asked. Tsuna contemplated for a moment then slowly nodded.

"Alrighty then, in you go! Go to the Headmaster's office to receive your dorm number and key, and your schedule." The other guard, Kintarou, said in a giddy voice and opened up the gate for the small brunet to enter. Tsuna hesitated for a moment, wondering why this academy needed guards and shrugged, nothing coming up in his blank mind. He entered through the gates without a second thought.

The first thing Tsuna thought was:

"Wow." He said aloud, fascinated by the large academy. There were many large buildings with a lot of smaller ones, all on different sides of the campus. The main building was in the middle, and it was painted a deep maroon color. The entire campus itself was about 4000 to 5000 acres large, with gardens, fountains, and it even had its own shops! There was a large forest off to the left side, which Tsuna guessed led into a real forest, wondering if the white walls reached that far.

Tsuna walked towards the main building with his luggage, noticing that the campus was nearly empty and that most of the kids were at some fields, and looked to be… Sparring? Fighting? Battling? And a few bright lights emitted from the area, the colors red and purple battling it out.

'What kind of academy is this place?' Tsuna wondered, passing by a few more buildings and neared the main building.

'I wish Otou-san would have explained with a bit more detail…' Tsuna sighed as he ascended the stone steps and entered the maroon-colored building. The halls were empty; lockers filled the side of them. Tsuna noticed one big brown wooden door with a sign that said "Headmaster's Office". Tsuna decided that he was supposed to go in there and slowly opened the door, forgetting to knock.

"E-excuse me… Hello?" Tsuna quietly said as he entered the office. He noticed that a blond woman wearing a business suit with a large chest sat behind the office desk. She looked to be about 26 years old. It was then that she noticed his eyes on her and she smiled lightly at him.

"Hi, how may I help you?" she asked him, slightly pushing her glasses back up to her eyes.

"U-um… I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi-"

"Oh! You must be new here, am I correct? The Headmaster has been expecting you!" she said as looked around for a few papers and handed them to him. "This is your schedule, dorm number, and map of the entire campus. I know that you might get lost… Everyone always does…" She mumbled the last part. Tsuna gave her a confused look as she explained some more.

"The Headmaster will be the one to evaluate your flame and give a spot in one of the three groups: Vongola, Millefiore, or the Arcobaleno. There's also another group, but you probably won't get into it. It's called the Varia," she continued to ramble," Oh, and you should probably avoid the forest, too. That's where Vendice's main punishment building is at and you should also avoid the black building. That's theirs too and the Varia too- "

"U-um…" Tsuna cut her off, making her gaze at him in question.

"W-what's this about flames? And I was never informed of groups and V-Ven…" Tsuna forgot the word, but it had an eerie feel to it that made him shiver. The woman's face lit up, then gave him a sheepish smile.

"Sorry about my rambling then. Iemitsu probably didn't explain to you, knowing him…" she wandered off. Tsuna stared at the woman, waiting for her to continue, wondering how she knew his father.

"… That baka… Not explaining to his own son… Dangers… Flames…" He heard he blond, green-eyed woman mumble. He didn't like the word 'Danger.'

'Is this some kind of military school? Nah, it's too much of a pretty and colorful place. Why didn't Otou-san explain?!' Tsuna mentally screamed, completely confused about the academy

"Anyways," she cut him from his thoughts, "Go on into the Headmaster's office over there-" She pointed to a black-painted wooden door with the gold-plated initials N.M.A. and the word 'Headmaster' in cursive gold carved into it. "-and you'll be given a tour around the entire campus. Ask Headmaster about the flames, too. Tell him the Iemitsu hadn't explained to you what this academy's really about." She gestured him towards the door before he could ask anything else.

"Oh! And it's nice to meet you, Sawada-san!" she waved at him. "I'm Moriyama Shiemi, come visit me some time, Sawada-san. Tell your grandfather I said hi!" She said with a bright smile. Tsuna gave her a shy wave and smile before opening the door and entering the Headmaster's office. He froze for a moment.

'Wait... My grandfather?'

"Please send Colonello of the Arcobaleno to the Headmaster's office please, Colonello of the Arcobaleno." The speaker at the corner of the gym spoke. A blond man sat up from his squatting position and wiped the sweat from his forehead. His cerulean-colored eyes gazed over to a dark blue-haired woman and grinned at her glare.

"Take care of 'em, will ya Lal?" Colonello waved at her.

"Just hurry up and go!" She shouted at him and sent a large blue flame his way, slightly singeing a few students who were in the path of the flame. Colonello waved one last time before moving out of the way of the flame and jogging out the gym.

"Don't be too hard on them!"

Lal turned and gave Colonello's students a hard stare. The students cowered, knowing how Spartan Lal's gym activities were.

"Okay! Down and give me 100. Now!" The ex-military captain commanded loudly.

"H-hai!" All the students said fearfully and began to do their push-ups, glad that the Spartan teacher wasn't giving them the flame-training course.

"Ah, Sawada Tsunayoshi. Please, take a seat." And old man with gray hair and a gold staff said with a light smile. He sat in a leather seat in the large office.

"H-hello…" Tsuna shyly greeted as he sat across the Headmaster. It was a pretty large room, with a pretty large rectangle shaped black marble table. The walls were maroon and the floor itself was a white marble.

"Please let me introduce myself. I am Sawada Timoteo, the ninth Headmaster of Namimori Academy. And I also happen to be-"

"G-grandpa?" Tsuna interjected, shocked. Timoteo chuckled at Tsuna's baffled expression.

"Ah yes, but it is expected that you don't recognize me. After all, the last time I've seen you was when you were just 5: shy and clumsy." He said in his olden voice. Tsuna furrowed his eyebrows, clearly trying to remember the time when he met his grandpa. Timoteo noticed this and lightly smiled at his grandson.

"Let me continue, young Tsunayoshi." He said, bringing Tsuna back and out of his mind.

"A-ah, yes…"

"Call me Grandpa, or Timoteo may work also." He said.

"Grandpa…" Tsuna mumbled, a light blush adorning his face. The old man chuckled and continued to speak.

"Anyways, this is Namimori Academy. A place where special kids are sent and trained…" He said. Tsuna perked up at this.

"This is no ordinary academy. In fact, it's far from normal. This is the perfect place for special humans to train the powers they received from generation to generation, called their 'Dying Will Flame' or just Flames." Timoteo explained.

"U-um… I was never told of the flames here… Moriyama-san had explained about some things, but I don't really understand why I was sent here in the first place…" Tsuna quietly explained. Timoteo had heard him perfectly and nodded, expecting it from the young Sawada.

"I see, so Iemitsu has failed to explain to you what this academy is for… No matter, I will explain to you about the flames instead. After all, we still need to examine your flame." Timoteo said. Tsuna nodded, taking in the missing knowledge.

"Alright, let me start with the flames. Dying will Flames are basically born from your dying will. As in, they are born when you either have a near death experience, or they just come in naturally. They light up on your hands, but there are two flames: The Pure Flames, which are made from your pure dying will, and Natural Flames, which are the most common. Pure Flames are almost as rare as the Sky Flames," Timoteo stopped to take a look at Tsuna, who was staring at him with a slightly confused face, and continued, "Pure Flames are much more powerful than Natural Flames and so that's why we made a system. But before I explain the system, let me tell you about the types of flames." He said and took a breath.

"First, there are the Storm Flames, their color is red and they concentrate on fire, a little similar to normal flames. Then, there's the Rain Flames, a blue color. They specialize in controlling water and bending it to their will. There's also the Lightning Flame, a green color. They mostly concentrate on lightning. Then there's the Cloud Flames, a purple Color. They mostly specialize in combat and fighting. Then there's the Mist Flames. They specialize in illusions and traps. There's also the Sun Flames, a bright golden color. They are centered in healing and re-creating. These flames are very common." Timoteo explained. Tsuna was about to speak, but Timoteo hadn't finished.

"Finally, there's the Sky Flames, a bright orange color. The Sky Flames are the strongest from the list of Normal Flames. The ones with Sky Flames are usually supposed to concentrate in every aspect, but it isn't required until you're 18. But these are the normal flames." Timoteo said. Tsuna gave him a puzzled look.

"There's more than 7 flames?" Tsuna asked. Timoteo nodded.

"There are mainly 7 flames, but there are 2 other flames. They are called the Pure Will Flames, the Light Flame and the Dark Flame." Timoteo's eyes darkened as he said these names.

"Are they…" Tsuna started.

"They are the strongest flames out of all the flames. They are completely Pure and at the top of the list. The other flames came from the Light and Dark flames. They were born from them. But now isn't the time to explain these two flames. It seems that I need to explain the type of groups here and the activities here in Namimori Academy." Timoteo explained and tried to lighten the mood a little more.

"There are 3 Main Groups: Vongola, Millefiore, and the Arcobaleno. They relate to the flames. There's one boss for each group and 6 guardians, their closest friends or famiglia. The boss and guardians all have Pure Flames, they lead the entire group, setting up the activities and festivals. They are the strongest in each group and have the purest flames. The boss is usually the only with the Sky Flame. And they happen to be around the age of 17-25. Your strength, whether your flame is pure or not, and flame type will be how the council and I will place you into which group. But it isn't likely that you'll be put into the Arcobaleno, knowing that there are only 8 of them, and they happen to be mostly adults." Timoteo explained. Tsuna's head slightly hurt, taking in all the information.

"There's also another group, but it's an underground group, if you know what I mean. They call themselves the Varia."
Tsuna remembered Shiemi explaining something about the Varia.

"Tsunayoshi, do you know why you were sent here?" Timoteo asked. Tsuna could already guess.

"I have… A Flame?" Tsuna asked. Timoteo nodded.

"I can already guess what kind of flame you have. It should be the same as mine, too. But not all people only have one flame. Some could also inherit two main flames or three and so on… But that's not the point here. The Varia and the Arcobaleno…" Timoteo started but was cut off when the headmaster's office door slammed open, a blond man with bright blue eyes appeared. He was wearing camouflage all over, a camouflage bandana wrapped around his head, slightly sweating and a part of his green jacket was singed.

"Colonello here and reporting for duty, Headmaster!" Colonello saluted and grinned at the headmaster, then settled his gaze on the small brunet that was Tsuna, who was shying away into his chair, blushing slightly.

"Ah, Colonello, you have arrived." Timoteo nodded at the blond nineteen-year-old.

Colonello nodded in return, still grinning. "Soooo, Nono, who's this adorable boy here?" He asked as he walked up behind Tsuna's chair, curious.

"I-I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi…" Tsuna mumbled shyly, blushing even brighter when Colonello called him 'adorable'.

"Ah, you must be new here right? I've never seen you around here before?" Colonello laughed sheepishly and scratched the back of his head.

"Yes, he is new. And that is why you were summoned here, Colonello-san. I need you to escort him and give him a tour of the campus. And show him his temporary dorm until we decide which group he will be in." Timoteo explained.

"No problem, man, I don't mind!" Colonello said and yanked Tsuna out of his chair, startling the brunet.

"E-eh!?"

"So I guess I'll see you later, old man!" Colonello called out and gave Tsuna time to grab his stuff and dragged him off like a hyper puppy. Timoteo laughed.

"It seems that this will be an interesting few years…"

~~Chapter END~~

So I guess this first chapter was a boring chapter… Cuz I had to explain what Namimori Academy was, and I didn't do very good at it, but I guess I'll explain more in the future. Hoped you like it! BTW, that secretary office woman I used was Moriyama Shiemi from Ao no Exorcist! Yup, I made her older!
