Introduction -

Two Generations after Tsunayoshi Sawada's reign over the Vongola Famiglia, the 12th Generation Boss is slowly but surely coming toward the end of his days. Sora Sawada and his predecessor kept Primo & Tsuna's ideal going - the idea that the Vongola should be a vigilante Mafia, not an underworld criminal organisation. Now that Sora is on his death bed, hostile families begin to plot against his successor: Ami, his daughter and only child, ...apparently. Small, frail, nervous and generally pathetic as far as Mafia standards go; a lot of people get the idea that the Vongola will be much weaker with a boss like that. After the succession, it should be the opportune time to wipe them and their allies from existence... That way, there will be no 'moderation' over the Mafia world by the Vongola.

Fully aware of this, Sora decided to call over an old friend from Italy. A certain little Hitman who just so happens to be an excellent mentor for those useless kids who are destined to hold great power over the Mafia world. With no time to lose, the Home Tutor Hitman Reborn took a flight to the quiet town of Namimori. There's a team of Guardians to muster, and a student to perfect!

Hinata Nanami, Guardian of Rain
Name: Hinata Nanami
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Nationality: Japanese
Flames: Rain (Main), Sun, Lightning, Cloud, Mist, Storm
Appearance:


Faction: Vongola Famiglia and Allies
Weapons:
Shinai - A training sword for Kendo. Not exactly a good weapon, or even a subpar weapon. It's a good thing it's gonna be replaced.
Equipment/Items: Rain Vongola Ring, Lightning CAI Ring, Cloud CAI Ring, Mist CAI Ring, Storm CAI Ring
Box Weapons/Animals:
Sistema Cambio Arma Instantaneo - Infinito Creazione di Spada/Infinite Creation of Swords - A set of Box Weapons modeled after the Sistema CAI of Gokudera Hayato. However, unlike the original, this particular variation is composed solely of Rain-attribute Boxes, rather than a multitude of different attributes. Furthermore, it lacks any 'utility' Boxes like the Bone Loops or the Storm Disk. In fact, initially it would seem it isn't a Sistema CAI at all if it weren't for the somewhat unusual properties that the weapons recieve when coated in different Flames. Each of the Boxes contain a hilt of a Japanese bladed weapon, whether it be a polearm, dagger. or a sword, without the blade. The 'blade' of the hilt is actually formed from Hinata's Rain Flames, the Hard/Ice variant of Rain, allowing for a choice between any type of blade depending on the situation. A longsword with a katana hilt? A plain katana? A halberd? Hinata's got it all covered. However, to change the type of blade it is, he must first remove the blade entirely and recreate it. The same applies to if he wishes to swap out Flame properties on his blades. He recieves the following properties, dependent on which Flame he choses to coat a blade in:

Rain: By coating the weapon's Hard Rain blade with Soft Rain Flames, the user can create wounds that won't heal until the entire Sistema CAI is turned off, as well as the standard slowing debuff. It does this by slowing the cells in the damaged area, thus slowing muscle movement and cellular regeneration.

Lightning: Coating the blade in Lightning Flames gives Hinata two options. He can 'sharpen' the blade to the point of effectively becoming an armor-piercing, anti-shield weapon, or he can 'harden' the blade to make it more effective at resisting attacks.

Mist: Quite simply, coating the blade with Mist Flames results in a completely invisible blade. While this doesn't sound as impressive as the other abilities, it could actually be considered more potent than the others, if used effectively.

Cloud: Rather than using the Propagation property of the Cloud Flames, a blade coated in this Flame uses the property of Cloud that allows it to absorb Flame aura it comes into contact with, and changes the blade's Flame attribute accordingly, without having to recreate the blade.

Storm: Allows the Storm coated blade to attack... FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE! It can also spread the Storm Flames around to create environmental hazards, but Hinata's not really the type to go causing collateral to win a fight.

Cane di Pioggia ver. Vongola/Rain Dog ver. Vongola - "Jirou" - Yes, that Jirou. Formerly Yamamoto's secondary Box Animal, it was rotting in the Vongola Base for many years after the 10th Generation Family. That is, until Hinata had decided to use the shortsword-wielding Shiba Inu as his Box Animal of choice.

Sistema Cambio Arma Instantaneo - Forma di Pioggia Lupo/Rain Wolf Form - Almost immediately after recieving his variant of the Sistema CAI, Hinata would choose to implement Jirou within the system. Upon providing the Shiba Inu some Sun Flames, it matures and powers up into a Rain Wolf, with parameters that can't even be compared to the original Rain Dog.

Backstory/Personality: Hinata is driven by a sense of inferiority literally and metaphorically beaten into him throughout his life. He was born physically weak, and as a result, was unable to go outside and play with the other kids for a better part of his childhood. However, the young little child held a love of sports and outdoor activities despite his inability to do so effectively. He held an optimistic, steadfast belief that his weak bodily condition didn't matter, and he could do whatever the other, physically-able children could. As such, he'd often try out for varying school sports teams - baseball, volleyball, soccer, etc - only to get rejected due to his natural-born fragility. And mocked for it by the people who did manage to get on the team. Fortunately though, every now and then he was accepted due to lack of sign-ups. Plus, there were always his friendly neighbours who would often opt to play a game of ball or whatever with the young lad, whether out of pity or genuine kindness, Hinata doesn't know - or care, for that matter; as some things are better left unknown. Although, there was one he knew was definitely there because she cared: Sawada Ami, his neighbour and best - not to mention only! - friend.

It was during the clubs' display during his first week of middle school when Hinata found his calling. It started off as a relatively regular day, or at least as regular as a first-week-of-middle-school-day went. Go to classes, eat lunch, more classes, so on so forth. However, that day he attended the display, having opted earlier to take up an extracirricular activity, a sports club of some sort, to be specific. Assuming they'd accept a whelp like himself, of course. He walked around the grounds, watching people play basketball or baseball, but Hinata didn't find a sports club that he'd like to live with for the rest of his middle school career. There was one last place to check out before he called it a day and opt to join the 'Go Home And Mope After School Club': the Namimori Middle Kendo Club.

And boy, did he love the Nami Middle Kendo Club.

Sure, he thought the whole thing was absolutely impossible for him to do, much like his opinions on most other full-contact sports, but after watching a match and getting engrossed within the sound of bamboo-on-bamboo and the excitement of the crowd as the captain got in his winning shot...! Needless to say, Hinata knew he had to get in this club, personal weakness be damned. So he tried out.

Obviously he failed spectacularly, but it was the thought that counted. Though thought doesn't get you in your dream club. Or stop the club members from mocking and bullying you every time you tried to join the club everyday for the first year of middle school. So he trained even more. He went home and trained, day in and day out, using his free-time solely for either training or hanging out with Ami. Sometimes both. He didn't have a shinai or bokken to train with, so for the first few months he used a large wooden stick until he finally managed to persuade his parents to get him an actual, honest-to-God shinai to train with. And he carried that thing around everywhere, and was often teased for it. Older, tougher people would often mock and bully him, causing Hinata to try and retaliate, only to fail and go home with a dozen bruises that his BFF Ami usually ended up having to fix. Hell, even the Kendo Club members joined in, staging mock fights and using the too-idealistic-for-his-own-good-Hinata as a training dummy. Eventually, the Rain Guardian learned his lesson: if you can't tank the hits, just avoid them. So he trained again. This time working on footwork and reaction speed. Lo and behold, during his second year of middle school, he actually won his first fight, putting together his superb speed along with his technique to dodge and hit those assholes who thought it was a good idea to corner him after school. Sure, he recieved some damage, but not as much as usual.

So, he tried to join the club again. But attempting to join every day for two years tends to get on peoples' nerves, so instead of denying him, they just flat out ignored and/or beat the crap out of him with their superior abilities. Sure, he was quick, but when you get cornered and are up against guys that are both bigger and better than you, you kind of end up getting the shit kicked out of you. So he trained... Again. After all, there was still high school, right?

...No, no there wasn't. Sad face.

Name: Leonardo Mancini
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Nationality: Italian
Flames: Cloud
Appearance:


Faction: Vongola Famiglia and Allies, CEDEF - Consulenza Esterna Della Famiglia
Weapons:
Microfilament Razor Wire - Ten long, nearly monomolecular wires made from a strong metal alloy and almost invisible to the untrained eye. Sharp enough to cut through steel and concrete with no trouble, yet soft enough to be able to restrain targets. Don't you dare call it Razor Floss in front of his face.
Equipment/Items: Cloud CEDEF Ring
Box Weapons/Animals:
Ragno di Nuvola/Cloud Spider - "Nest" - A large spider, rather than multiple smaller spiders, that spins webs of Cloud Flames that both absorb Flames that it comes in contact with, as well as absorb those from the people the web entangles, whether or not they're actively using Flames.

Backstory/Personality:

Name: Calthorn Stalicrat
Age: 34
Gender: Male
Nationality: Japanese
Flames: Mist
Appearance:



Faction: Vongola
Weapons:
"Who says mist users have to be sneaky and subtle? I don't remember seeing a written rule about it."
A two-handed sword with chainsaw functionality, said functionality activated by revving the inner half of the handle like a motorbike.
Equipment/Items: Initially: Class A mist ring. An amulet containing a picture of him as a child and his parents.
Later on: Vongola Mist Ring
Box Weapons/Animals: Mist Owl. Mist Cutter (Later), a mist-powered katana that can use mist flames itself as a powerful ranged weapon.
Backstory/Personality:
"'Devil of the mist?' Kinda accurate yet offensive at the same time."
A nomad by nature, Calthorn travels the world bringing down criminal organizations for a living. His tendency to break the spirit of said criminals has left him with a very sarcastic side, and a habit of creating false threats to mess with them further, such as the presence of fake explosives. His most recent "job" has seen him arriving in Namimori. His mastery over the mist flame coupled with his personality and his habit of making false threats has earned him the nickname of "Devil of the mist."

Yeah, this'll be WIP for a minute too.

Ami Sawada - Vongola XIII
Name: Ami Sawada
Aliases: 'Vongola Tredecimo' by loyalist Mafioso, 'Loser Ami' by majority of Nami students
Age: 15 "I'm short, okay?!"
Gender: Female
Nationality: 1/2 Japanese, 1/2 Italian
Flames: Sky
Appearance:



Faction: Vongola Famiglia, Namimori High School
Weapons: X-Gloves
Equipment/Items: Sky Vongola Ring hung from a silver necklace, Dying Will Pills in a neat little container
Box Weapons/Animals:
:: 1x Leone di Cielo Ver. Vongola "Natsu" (Yep, the very same as Tsuna's)
:: 1x 'Kit Switch Box' containing a high-tech transformable Bowsword and Flame Boots. This box allows Ami to, given she has the time, switch out her Bowsword or the X-Gloves to better suit the combat scenario, storing what she isn't using in the box for later use. Using more than one kit at a time is rather exhausting with all the flames pouring out, so Ami sticks to using one at a time to conserve energy.
Backstory/Personality: Ami Sawada is the only-child daughter of Sora Sawada, the 12th (Dodecimo) Generation Boss of the Vongola Famiglia. As such, when Sora finally passes away due to his spiritual illness, Ami is due to inherit the Vongola and the title of Vongola Tredecimo, the 13th. Yes, the unlucky number for an already-unlucky kid! She certainly has the kindness and strong sense of justice that the previous bosses had since Tsunayoshi's era, but severely lacks much fighting capability. Considering some families would like to eat the Vongola alive for making the mafia world more 'cushy', Ami is plainly and bluntly doomed from the moment she gets crowned Boss. This is where the renowned hitman Reborn comes in as Ami's tutor!

Ami doesn't have that much of a social life or all that many pals. She's only had two really good friends in her lifetime: Nanami Hinata, and Kozato Yuuji. Yuuji because of the strong bond between Vongola and Simon, and 'Nata because he's more or less in the same 'absolute/mostly failure' boat as her.
