The beautiful Dryad knelt beside him and waved one of her spindly-looking hands over him. The bindings around his body fell away, and he got to his feet. 

“What do you want?” he asked, looking at Pandora, who had her head tilted up, staring at the moonlit sky. He was on his own then. 

“You stepped into my garden, little one,” The Dryad spoke, her voice making him think of rustling leaves and bird song again. “All who trespass must be punished,” she said, so matter-of-factly that it sent a shiver down Regulus’s spine. 

“We didn’t do it on purpose, and it’s not like you had any signs to tell us not to go in there,” he argued. 

“There were many signs if only you had thought to look!” Thalira raised her voice. Gone was the sweetness, replaced by raging fire and howling winds. Regulus took a step back. “No matter,” she said, as though she hadn’t been furiously vengeful a second before. “You can help this sweet forest spirit with the task I have bestowed upon her,” Pandora skipped over and threw her arms around Thalira, her white-blonde hair tangling in Thalira’s wild locks. 

“What is the task?” he asked. He was no idiot, he wouldn't agree to do something when he had no idea what he was agreeing to. 

“That is not your concern, little one. My sweet spirit here will reveal all when the time is right,” Thalira turned and walked away, waving her hand one last time and returning the others to the clearing. Regulus had no idea where they’d gone, but he’d never been happier to see his brothers struggling form. 

“Reg? Regulus?!” James shouted. 

“Stop shouting. I’m right next to you, idiot,” Regulus grumbled to him. “They’re going to confront us,” he whispered to Pandora, so James wouldn’t hear. 

“They cannot know. Bad things will happen if we let anything slip,” She moved away from him as he bent down to help James. 

“Come on, let’s go,” he told his boyfriend, as he and the others began to realise they could see and move again. 

“Wh-what happened? Barty asked. 

“Thalira was cross that we damaged her flowers, that’s all,” Pandora answered. She gave him a knowing look that he wished she hadn’t because when he turned back to James, he was looking between them, his brows furrowed. Great, he was worse than Sirius when he smelled something was up. 

Together, their disgruntled, wary party fled the forbidden forest and hurried back to the castle. 

Like...if they abandon Tsuna, literally put him into a orphanage, or he went missing before the plot starts and they send Reborn into a manhunt, if Tsuna if adopted, if he is even more wronged (like he got kidnapped by Estraneo? Left to die as a toddler? Iemitsu abandoned him?) than Canon? Tsuna has a secret twin or sibling? He is a bait?

Nana is in a worse situation? He is actually a bastard child? If Iemitsu takes him from his foster family or attack them in some way? Or Reborn takes him back from whatever and with whoever he is?

Because Reborn would probally just shoot and kidnap Tsuna and take him back, which will cause problems because Tsuna would want to go back to his home/family and wont stay quiet and scared like Canon, his foster family/friend wont stay put either or let Reborn in their houses?

If they just expect him to be quiet and passive as they ruin his life

Fuck Namimori by the way, feels too much like a cage, so did the Sawada Household

To they genuine think Tsuna will just stay quiet and obey? Revenge, much? You are giving this kid POWER????

Even if Iemitsu kidnaps Tsuna and shoves him with his crazy wife, the boy wont just stay quiet? He would want to go back to his foster parents, no matter how much Nana tries to mother him

When Vongola show up, fully intented to take Tsuna back and abuse the hell out of him to make him their puppet heir?

To force him to abandon his friends and family, or force said friends and family to fight and die and sacrifice for the pathetic worthless Vongola?

The home tutor sure as hell wont work on good parents

There will be differences and confront

There will be revenge

Like...you just looked for me because you NEEDED ME??? And think I wont get my revenge????

No, I wont go with you to Namimori.

You are not staying in my house either

No????

I HAVE A LIFE!!!!

"You genuine though you could come to my house, lie to my face, attempt to dictate my life after you abandoned me, hurt my family, take my from my loved ones and I would just be quiet and obey? Then give me power and I wont kill you?"

"You kidnapped me from my loved ones, dragged me to that hell-town, tried to beat me up into obedience to bow to your demands because I am now 'useful' to you and you need me after years of abandoment and neglect, and thought I wont fight back? I wont want revenge? Fuck off, senile pathetic worthless old man. I will fucking kill you for your arrogance."

They thought they could just take Sawada Tsunayoshi to Namimori, and with a little threats, a little beating and a little pushing and scare done by Reborn, the civilian useless boy would be their obedient little pawn, to shut up and forget his family and friend (bad influence) and get him some Guardians to shape him in the boss Vongola needed. Tsuna's civilian foster family shouldn't be a threat hard to get rid of, a little manipulation and maybe Mist Flames if they proved too stubborn and they would forget the boy and they could take him back for Vongola where he belonged.

Tsuna would demand, confront for answers and explanations for their lies and manipulations and all the hurt they caused, wont let them impose their will into his own and control him. Wont be like the powerless friendless Canon Tsuna surrounded by delusional children and trapped in a abusive family, even if Iemitsu did shove him with Nana, Tsuna wont stay quiet and put in his little shelf.

He wont indulge Nana’s delusions, wont pretend he wasn't taken by force against his will, wont play nice heir with Timoteo, wont let people talk over him and his Will like Canon Guardians always do.

"I will search for you after your death, to confront you. I will pose to you your timelessness and lack of fixity. I will say you have now never won. I will search for you across heaven, for you marked me when I was indistinct, when I was loving, I say." - Alice Notley, from In The Pines: Poems; “The Black Trailor (A Noir Fiction),”
