Any guesses who exactly Rico is now?

Chapter 3
Fuyuki City,
"Mooh~ How annoying! Gil, can we go any faster?" Lumiere tilted her head as she leaned on the armrest on the left side of Gilgamesh while Enkidu is sitting on his lap. His arm is wrapped securely on her small waist.
"My Vinama can go as fast as my thought, Lumiere." The Golden King replied as they watched Caster and Assassin fighting Saber and the faker Archer alongside their Masters.
"It appears Berserker and Rider is not joining the fight." Enkidu commented as they watched it from the Vinama.
"I said I want it finished earlier but something is off. Are you sure you are okay, Gil? Having transferring your command seals on me, I mean?" the raven asked. "I knew earlier that we always bit each other's head ~"
"I am fine, Lumiere. Stop nagging me. Enkidu's mother Henning is enough." The blonde replied.
"I am not mother Henning you, Gil! We are just worried." The Heavenly Weapon pouted, making her best friend wince. Lumiere looked away and stifled her giggles.
Enkidu had Gilgamesh whipped!
Anyways, Lumiere gripped the end of Gilgamesh's throne when they did a sharp maneuver in order to avoid the Noble Phantasm of Berserker who was actually hiding.
"Heh, feels like the Fourth Grail War." Gilgamesh commented as their Master used a sticking charm on her high heels in order to stay upright. Good thing she decided to wear a pair of short shorts tonight.
"Har har," the Mistress of Death rolled her eyes as she pulled her wand and start reflecting those weapons Archer EMIYA is sending to them. She shared the Golden Kings mirth when the Vinama went faster and started to fight back. Gilgamesh let Enkidu move so her chains rained down the Temple.
Lumiere decided to join the fun when she jumped from the vehicle, much to the horror of the other Masters (and her Servants). Free falling from the dark sky, she laughed as she threw a special Kunai next to Saber who is actually Arturia Pendragon.
(Yeah, Hiraishin! Never underestimate a bored Otaku who had enough access in all materials and a bored Mistress of Death who had unlimited access to other worlds)
She vanished in a black flash leaving trails of red roses in her wake.
Appearing beside Saber, she kicked the Kunai which sailed passed Caster. Appearing next to the her, she kicked Caster on the back before ducking, narrowly dodging Assassin's sword.
"Caster Medea, allow me to see if who is much more powerful. You or I!" Lumiere exclaimed as she whipped her wand out.
"You are just a Magus!" Medea screamed.
"Wrong! I am the Mistress of Death!"
Archer EMIYA chocked.
"Caster Potter?!"
"Got that right! Riposa!" ripples appeared behind her similar to Gilgamesh Gate of Babylon (much to the horror of Saber and Archer). But instead of weapons, various of black skeleton army varying in sizes descend around Caster. The Witch of Betrayal cannot help but to gape along the rest of the Servants seeing the range of her magic.
The Mistress of Death landed on top of one of her [Black Skulls]. Emerald green eyes glittered in mischief before they are devoid in any emotion.
"Well then, I finally held all of the attention, fellow Masters and Servants of the Fifth Holy Grail War! My name is Lumiere Louise Potter-Black and I am definitely not related to that girl even our resemblance is too much to be normal. I am the Master of Lancer, and unfortunate enough to be dragged in this stupid monkey paw of a game like the red head over there."
"Unfortunate?! Don't you know that being drafted as a Master is a privilege?!"Rin Tohsaka exclaimed. "And what do you mean Monkey's Paw?!"
"The Grail is tainted, Tsundere-chan. Kirutsugu Emiya destroyed that thing ten years ago in order to save the world from Angra Mainyu, the Avenger that the Einzbern Family called. Emiya-san used all of his command Seals in order to make Saber here destroy it." Lumiere explained. "This war is a total waste, to be honest. If I may, I would rather give the damn thing to Zelretch so he can fix it unless you all wanted to destroy the world. Take note that if one of you did that, I am going to use the idiot as my bitch doing ALL the paperwork that I would be no doubt—swamped."
"And how we could tell that you are telling the Truth? For all we know, you just wanted the Grail for yourself." Shirou Emiya told her.
"That question is a valid one. However, I might have a wish but I would not cheapen it using a tainted useless grail. I love him so much to do shortcuts!" her eyes turned into pale gold. "I had my own means to do what I want. I never needed such dangerous item that is created for the greediness of Magis!"
"If we decide to agree with you, what will happen to us Servants?" Archer EMIYA asked.
Lumiere smiled.
"A new life like I have gotten." She replied as slacks of files appeared on each Servants hands. "You all have three days to decide. Until then, you won't be seeing me since I am visiting my son."
The sheer look disbelief thrown at her made even Gilgamesh cackle in amusement.
"But you are what, twenty?!" Shirou exclaimed.
"How old is your child?" Saber asked.
" twenty seven but mentally twenty millenniums. I am way older than that jerk." Lumiere shrugged her shoulders as she landed on the ground. All of her summons vanished leaving no trace. "And my son turned fifteen two weeks ago."
"EHHHHH?!"
"you know what, I give up. Normality, nice meeting you." Shirou said in a deadpan voice.
The Mistress of Death just laugh it out.
0000
Namimori, Two weeks later,
"Ne, Reborn. . "
"Yes, Redford?"
"Mama send me a new toy." Red waved a zigzag like dagger while they are in the Peverel Library. "This baby is called Rule Breaker, Noble Phantasm of Servant Caster straight from Fuyuki. She asked me to try to use it on the Available Arcobaleno which is the nearest is you. Rule Breaker breaks any kind of magical contracts and the Pacifier is qualifies as a contract."
"And pray tell how could she gotten herself such valuable toy, anyway?" Reborn would admit, he enjoyed being Redford Peverel's tutor when it comes to mathematics. The boy, as it turned out, is more knowledgeable when it comes to mage craft and wizard magic. The blood adoption helped balancing his flames, his circuits and magic turning him into a walking Battery like his mother. According to Red, once he harmonize properly and found his familiars, his levels would be back to normal.
"She asked Medea nicely and that was before Mama pulled out her Secret Wedding Gown designs. Medea-san is now part of the Emerald Sky Desires, her Fashion Boutique." The boy replied as he frowned upon the calculations he had in front of him. Scratching his spiky hair, Red erased his first few lines before making another one.
"Ask. . nicely."
"Umu. I know we usually throw logic out of the window. So, what's your answer?"
Reborn eyed the dagger. "Well then, let's try."
Red glance on him just to make sure before stabbing the Sun Arcobaleno, just enough to pierce his clothes.
The results are. . . shocking. For Reborn that is.
The Sun Pacifier let out a dying screech as it cracked. Red pulled out a carved diamond and slammed it on the said pacifier, turning its pure color in bright yellow. The now destroyed Pacifier fell off from Reborn who immediately grew back on his Twenty seven year old body. Unfortunately, his clothes are a lost cause.
Add insult to the injury, the door opened revealing a happy Lumiere.
"Darling~ I'm ho—" The Peverel Matriarch paused upon the scene she had walked in.
An older naked male in front of her pure and innocent son.
Naked. Male.
An older naked male in front of her precious Baby boy.
NAKED MALE.
Pure and potent Killing Intent filled the room. Her eyes flashed into pale gold with a hint of amethyst signaling her Winter Sky and Cloud flames as ripples of appeared behind her. Each ripple held various of weapons she either traded or copied from Gilgamesh Vault (within permission and Puppy Dog Eyes of Doom by Enkidu) and created by Archer EMIYA.
"DIE!"
"THIS IS ALL A MISUNDERSTANDING!"
"MAMA!"
0000
Hibari Kyouya, alongside Enkidu and Gilgamesh paused from their talk when they heard crashing and screams of terror from the Private wing.
"MAMA, CALM DOWN! Its not what you think it is!"
"Don't worry, Darling! Mama will avenge your innocence! Just stay put, YOU PERVERT!" CRASH! BOOM!
"MRS. PEVEREL, LET'S TALK LIKE CIVILIZE PEOPLE!"
"SHUT UP, PERVERT!"
"Mama! He's my TUTOR FROM THAT MAN!"
"WHAT?!"
Five minutes and two vials of calming draught later,
"Let me get this straight you," Lumiere pointed out her son. "used Rule Breaker at him," points at Reborn who is currently wearing a spare suit and fedora which Suki dug from the storage. "And as a collateral damage, his clothes have gotten destroyed and what happened five minutes ago is juuusssttt a misunderstanding."
"That was exactly what happened. If you just allowed me to explain, we could have spared the wall and half of the library from unnecessary destruction." Red replied. "Even if we had reparo by our side."
Lumiere had the decency to pout as she folded her arms under her large chest clad in a green turtle neck long sleeve shirt with rose insignia stitched on her left bosom. It was partnered with white pleated skirt, a pair of black thigh high socks and green five inch ankle boots.
"So I did went a bit overboard. . ." she admitted. "But any sane and overprotective mother like me would do the same."
"Unfortunately." The young heir massaged his temple. "Anyways, Mama, meet Reborn, the Sun Arcobaleno and the Tutor send by Vongola. Reborn, meet my mother, Lumiere Louise Potter-Black-Peverel, which would be Fernandez if she had her way," he manage to dodge a tea cup thrown at him by a beet red Lumiere.
"What the hell are you saying, Brat?!" (/o/)
"What? Its no secret that you want to jump at Papa once he returns, anyway." Red rolled his eyes. "And I am not talking about Iemitsu, Reborn."
"I would rather kill that bastard than have him back in my bed. Also, since I am back in my real body and all the damage had been fixed~" Lumiere trailed off. "Any ways, Reborn, Red and Kyouya, meet Gilgamesh or Gil. He is my other Servant in Archer Class like Enkidu. And before you all gotten confused, Enkidu is a female even she's damn too beautiful on her own good. She's Gil's girlfriend."
"It took us a week before we learned En-chan's gender since she is always wearing a loose tunic hiding her real gender." Red commented. "That means . . . Gilgamesh-san is the King of Uruk, correct?'
"In short, the Golden Jerk." Lumiere pipe in.
That earned her a head slap. ''Ow!"
"Lady Peverel, are they the only once going to live here?" Kyouya asked.
"Yup~! I will send you a message when another colleague of mine would arrive, Kyouya-kun. Have you used the new toy I send you to play with your Uncle?" the ravenette asked.
Kyouya smirked evilly. "I have fun."
Red felt his eyebrow twitch.
"On the other hand, is the Grail Wars already ended?"
"Yes. Good thing my fellow Masters agreed with my reasoning. I have been called at Clock Tower five days ago. And having winning a massive prank war from Zelretch is sooo totally worth it. He will dismantle the Grail and fix it. He told me that he will give me a ring once it is ready to be powered again." Lumiere explained. "As for the other Servants, they are having new lives on their own. I did manage to dispose a certain worm and shut the Einzbern Head."
"You killed the Matou Zouken?" Red's question raised an eyebrow from Kyouya.
"yes, I killed it. There is no way I would categories the old worm who is living using his Crest Worms, the lowest of low of all familiars as a human being. Zouken is way older than the Vongola First Generation. As the reason why I killed him? He threw his adopted granddaughter, Sakura Matou who is originally a Tohsaka on the pit full of Crest worms when she was six, a few hours after her adoption. Crest worms do build and enhanced the Magic Circuits of Magi in exchange for their bone marrow to be eaten on males while on the women, they feed upon the lining of the uterus and their. . . sexual pleasures."
Both Kyouya and Red turned green when the implication hit them while Reborn's face is shadowed by his fedora.
"Is she. .?"—Red
"She was raped by her supposed to be Uncle then her adopted brother, Shinji. I did kill the bastard, ending the Matou line, rob the place then set it on fire. Sakura is been purified two days ago. She and Rider will be following us here by next week along her boyfriend Shirou." Lumiere stood up and sat beside her son and pulled him into a hug. "She is free now, Red. I made sure of that."
"How could they have done that?" Red asked faintly as he buried his face on her neck.
"Magus are way darker than Magicals, I do admit. Even I do not hesitate to use the darker aspects of my knowledge. However, I had morals that I never crossed." She gently raked her son's spiky hair. "The very same morals that killed me in the first place. Waver told you that Magus walk hand by hand with death and as long as they find a way to reach Akasha, they do not take any consideration what they could and would do in order to reach their goals. That was the Sole reason I asked an oath for you to never stray on the darker path unless you never had any more choices and if the alternative is much worse."
"Yes, Mama. . ."
00000
Reborn carefully watched the mother and son duo currently cuddling on the love seat. Lumiere Louise Potter-Black-Peverel is the opposite of Nana Sawada, the airhead wife of Iemitsu.
Its hard to believe that Lumiere is the base form of Nana. Nana is an air head and ditzy while Lumiere is pragmatic and brutally honest to fault. The raven haired woman do what she could do as long as it is right.
And this version loves her son to fault.
"Mistress of Death and the Black Primo." He blurted out.
"Huh?" the two stared at him.
"What? Mistress of Death is Lady Lumiere's title while Redford is the black version of Vongola Primo."
"Black Version of Primo?" Red repeated.
"According to the Vongola Archives, you are basically Primo's clone minus the fact he is blonde and his eyes are more sapphire blue than Frost blue." Reborn told them.
"Maybe because of the Blood adoption. We Crystals have very unique kind of eyes." Lumiere guessed as her eyes turned into pale gold while Red's frost blue eyes turned amber orange. "Also, I came from the main branch. Giotto is a Peverel and I am the current Head."
"Vongola is more of a branch family then," Enkidu leaned upon Gil's chest as she took a sip of her tea. "Reborn, Red is more than equip and knowledgeable about his heritage. You basically have nothing to do to train him."
"Unfortunately En-chan, Reborn is the only one barring Verde and Mama who could understand when I went Science mode." The Peverel Heir replied. "So I am keeping him."
Lumiere let out a soft laugh before hugging her son.
"Well then, welcome to the family, Reborn!"
Reborn smirked. Ahh, too bad Lady Lumiere is definitely out of the market~
00000
Life goes on at Namimori. Kyouya is slowly drifting towards Red's Sky while Yamamoto Takeshi is been seen hanging out with his fellow raven. Gil is currently dragged by Enkidu in America having a vacation.
Reborn meanwhile, send a message to the Ninth with Lumiere's permission.
Nono,
Black Primo does not need any assistance. He is ready to inherit. . once you manage to pass through his Mother, The Mistress of Death.
Reborn.
"I had a storm that might be compatible with Redford." The Sun Arcobaleno said.
"Hmm? Who?" Lumiere turned her attention from the Garden towards the hitman.
"One Gokudera Hayato, he is the bastard son and Bianchi's younger brother." Reborn tilted his head.
The Peverel Matriarch snapped her finger as a file appeared on her hand. Reborn envied the said ability as Lumiere can get whatever information she wanted, wards be damned.
"Hmm, this boy is a Tsundere with explosive temper." Lumiere leaned on her chair and folded her hands on her lap. "I want to meet him first, Reborn."
"Acceptable, Lady Lumiere."
"You can train him if you want. Are you sure your contract from the Vongola allows you to double cross them?"
"It's not double crossing, Lady Lumiere. All they know is that I am busy training the Decimo and his Guardians." Reborn's eyes glance at her. "After all, I am a freelancer."
Lumiere raised an eyebrow before allowing her Sky Flames out.
The Former Sun Arcobaleno took the hint and slowly released his own flames. Her flames just waited, allowing his sun flames to do the first move. Lumiere's flames playfully touch a tendril before slowly returning back to her.
"Partial bond." Reborn uttered.
"Well, I do not mind. We have time." She shrugged her shoulders. "Anyways, I want you to have this." Lumiere gave him the Caster Class Card which Reborn picked.
"Lady?"
"I had a bad feeling, Renato." Lumiere admitted. "Can you do this for me? I want you to give it to Red in the event I became incapacitated. He would know the Aria."
"You are afraid that Iemitsu might do something."
"Not only Iemitsu. Even Timoteo. Do you really think there is nothing happening inside Vongola, Reborn? Zia Daniela pulled Vongola from its blood soaked name then it went down to drain when Timoteo took the rein. Once is fate, twice is a coincidence but thrice is a pattern. From Enrico to Frederico. Then the Cradle Affair happened making Xanxus fall into a Cryogenic Sleep for eight years." Lumiere poured herself and Reborn a glass of whisky.
"I know what you are saying," Reborn accepted the drink. "Vongola is dying."
"Not only that, Vongola lost her true goal. I would not force Red to take the mantle even it is his birthright. However, if he did accepted it, I will help him to overhaul the system. Its overdue, anyway." She twirled the contents of her glass before taking a sip.
"That I could agree, Lady."
00000
Meanwhile In undisclosed location.
Sapphire blue eyes watched the current happenings via Scrying mirror in front of them. Their left palm is cradling their cheek as their elbow rest upon the throne like chair they are currently sitting.
No one can identify their identity because they are wearing such heavy cloak and their face is secured with a half mask covering half of their face in process.
Too bored~ they thought.
Too bad they need to stay until later.
000000
"Peverel! I challenge you to a Kendo match! The price is Sasaegawa Kyoko!" Mochida, the Captain of Kendo Club shouted in the middle of the school gate.
Red, accompanied by Takeshi and Kyouya paused before adjusting his eyeglasses.
"And pray tell, what made you think I would accept?" The Decimo Heir asked in complete confusion.
"Because you like Kyoko!"
Takeshi is sure that he heard Kyouya growl hearing Mochida's words. Red, meanwhile, burst out laughing.
"Peverel!"
"How amusing," Red commented once he controlled his laughter. "If your none existed pea-size brain could have notice, I never spoke to Sasaegawa-san unless it is necessary. And to be honest, Kyoko-san is way too similar to my Mother when she still have an amnesia. I do not have Oedpus Complex." Rolling his eyes, "So, you can have thrown your challenge away. I had more important subjects to do than indulge on rival thing. Add to the fact that the so called prize is not even interested in any males in this school at any rate." Red did not turn his back even he knew Kyouya and Takeshi would protect him if necessary. "Also, there is no girl who have gotten my attention. I do not think someone would," he chuckled, much to the disbelief of his Fan Girls.
"What do you like for a girl, anyway?" one of his upperclassman asked.
"First of all, NOT a Fan girl. Second, who could understand half of what the hell he is saying especially when he went Science mode and most of all, HI, REE-CHAN!"
For the first time, Black Primo shuddered in dread before turning around.
The one who spoke is a girl in the same age as him which have wavy blonde hair in twin tails and familiar green eyes. She was wearing the female Nami-chuu uniform but instead of short black socks, she wore black thigh high ones.
"L-Lumie-chan. . ?" Red uttered in pure dread.
The one called 'Lumie-chan' just smiled at him.
"Hiya, Ree-chan! I'm bored so I decide to join you in school!" Lumie jumped on his back. "Whose your friend?"
"Louise, meet my friends, Yamamoto Takeshi and Hibari Kyouya." Rolling his eyes, he continued. "Guys, meet my annoying partner, Louise Black but I call her Lumie-chan."
"Oww, come on, Tsu-kun! You love me~"
"Unfortunately, you are correct. " Cue on the cursing and dying cries of Fan girls. "Still, the said knowledge never did stop me for trying to feed you to Stella or use you as Potion Ingredients for Professor Velvet." Red replied in a deadpan voice. "And get off. You are getting heavier."
"Maah maah, Tsu-kun, it is rude to point a woman's weight, you know?" Lumie did let him go.
"This is coming from the only girl I knew who inhaled Tentacle tart and Ramen on daily basis."
"Hey! Never diss the sweets and Ramen is the food of the gods! I never poke your obsession on Strawberry shortcakes!"
"Shut up and die somewhere."
"Gosh, I love you too~"
Red felt like murdering his partner. . . but he knew once he did, she would just pop back.
Damn it, he wished its already lunch!
00000
Lunch,
When the bell rang signaling lunch, Red basically carried Lumie along their bentos and almost used Hiraishin towards the roof top. Once Kyouya and Takeshi arrived, he sealed the said place so even Reborn cannot enter.
Lumie just smiled innocently upon them.
"Mama, cut the act. What are you doing here?" he asked.
His friends almost had a whipsplash.
"Your Mother?!" Takeshi croaked in disbelief why Kyouya narrowed his eyes.
"I told you I was bored." Lumiere cut the act while she spread a large picnic mat on the floor. "The main reason, I had a bad feeling these coming months. I gave Reborn the Caster Card for safe keeping."
"Don't you have any faith in me? I understand Takeshi needs more training so is Kyou-sempai but. . ."
"It's not about that. AND YOU KNOW IT." The Peverel Matriarch glared at her son as his Guardians kept quiet.
Red blushed in embarrassment. "My apologies, I went out of the line, Mother." Pouting, he sat down. "Why Caster?"
"Because that was the Card you were interested when you were Five." Lumiere took a sip of her tea after she served the boys. Her eyes landed upon Takeshi. "Ho? A Rain already? My, Tsu-kun, you work so fast."
Red glance at Takeshi. "Takeshi-kun is like Sakura-nee. Who finally stabilized once she was accepted by Shirou-nii."
"Is that so?" her blonde hair turned black as if a black paint poured on a white canvas. "Welcome to the family, Takeshi-kun. I hope Red and Kyou-kun haven't melted your brain from their fights down to debates. Honestly, sometimes I could swear this two are married."
"MA! What the heck?!"
Kyouya just growled.
The Baseball player just let out an amused laugh. "Naah, they haven't, Peverel-san."
"Hmm? Call me Lumie when I am in this form and call me Mama or Tita when you visit home. Feel free to crash on our house." Lumiere raised an eyebrow, "You have been quiet, Kyouya. Is there something matter?"
"You owe a fight, Carnivore."
"Oh? I have forgotten that. Sorry."
"Can you two have those fights at home? I understand that we had money to fix the destruction, but come on!" Red whined as he imagine those paperwork that Kyouya is been pushing on him after learning he could make shadow clones like his mother.
Paperwork is the greatest enemy of All. EVER.
Lumiere rolled her eyes upon her son's antics. "Anyway, its been two months since Reborn appeared. Any antics I should have been warned about? I haven't seen a hair of the Potential Storm Brat Reborn said would be arriving."
Red paused from defending his hamburger steak from Kyouya so the prefect manage to steal it.
"Waah? Potential Storm? Silver haired boy with a penchant of throwing grenades?"
"Yup."
"Rin-nee took him under his wing via Shirou-nii's suggestion since they are both Tsunderes. Last time I knew, he could now fire Gandr and he will be attending Nami-chu tomorrow."
Lumiere's left eyebrow rose in disbelief.
"You allowed Rin-chan to take Hayato-kun under her wing?" pure disbelief laced her voice. "I asked Reborn that I wanted to meet the boy first. Looks like Rin-chan beat me on that matter."
Red looks skeptical.
00000
Peverel Manor,
"Signora, meet Gokudera Hayato, a potential Storm for Redford." Reborn introduce the silver haired teen upon Lumiere who is back on her real age. "Gokudera, this lovely woman is the Vongola Decimo's mother, Lumiere Louise Peverel."
"Welcome to Peverel Manor, Hayato-kun, may I call you that?" Hayato nodded. "How was your impromptu training with Tohsaka Rin? You are welcome to say what is on your mind. I won't hold it on you and I definitely not going to tell her all your threats and complaints." Lumiere welcomed the boy.
"She's. .. insane and a freaking Tsundere with dominatrix issues." Hayato admitted. "However, she is one of the best teachers I had the fortune to meet if we ignored her. . . other flaws. And she is definitely obsessed with Shirou-sama's cooking. Sakura-sama and Arturia-sama used to bodily throw her away from him especially Luvia-san."
"Luvia. As in Luvia Edelfelt?" Lumiere paled when he nodded. "Shit."
"Is there a problem, Signora?" Reborn asked.
"That bitch is the sole reason why Red made sure no one in Clock Tower minus Waver knew if he visited. It irk me that I cannot arrange an accident on that girl or else Zelretch will know." She told them. Good thing the gang kept their mouth shut about the whereabouts of her son. "I need to warn Red about this. Hayato-kun, welcome to the family."
"Thank you for having me, Lady Peverel."
"Maa maa, call me Tita, Hayato-kun. We are family now," she stood up from her seat. "Reborn, I want you to accompany me later after dinner.'
Reborn adjusted his fedora.
"Where are we going, Signora?"
"Scotland. You can shoot the hell out of the idiots if they irritated you."
The ex-Sun Arcobaleno smirked evilly.
0000
Scotland, Gringotts Bank,
"Merry met, Ragnarok. I brought a friend~"
"Merry met, Lumiere. Time to spread some chaos~"
Reborn cannot decide if he just met Viper's family. Of course, he heard about magicals but this is the first time he met a honest to goodness Goblin.
Which his semi-Sky were friends for.
"Ragnarok, I want you to meet a friend of mine and my son's tutor slash bodyguard, Reborn. Reborn, meet my close friend Director Ragnok, he is the current Goblin Prince." Lumiere introduced them.
"Welcome to Gringotts, Mr. Reborn. Last time I heard about the Arcobaleno, they are still in their cursed form." The said Goblin motion them to take a seat.
"Ahh, I could say I thank Signora for allowing her son to play with such powerful artifact, Prince Ragnarok." Reborn replied curtly.
"Young Redford, its been a while since I saw him, my friend." Ragnarok said. "Ahh, time do fly so fast. A month ago, that boy looks like a scrawny brown haired version of you, Lumie."
"Well, drastic situations need drastic measures, my friend. I do want to see my son pass his eighteenth birthday." Lumiere folded her arms under her chest. "I will take Red next time I visit, Ragnarok. He loves playing with the kids."
"Of course. However, Let's get to business." The Director clasped his hand over the table. "Milady, they found out about your existence."
"Is that so? Who found out?"
"The remaining Weasly, Ronald and his sister Ginevra."
"What about them?" she asked since she does not understand why it would bother her.
"The entire Magical Britain is wanting to see you again. It appears they have conveniently forgotten that they caused your death and destruction in the first place. Also, Ronald Weasly is the current Minister of Magic and the head of Unspeakable is is wife, Hermionie Weasly nee Granger."
Lumiere stared at him.
"And just why I would want to see them at any rate? It's been twenty years since I last step foot in here. Heck, I did not even went around to visit the places. It appears someone had leaked about my return." Her emerald green eyes narrowed. "My Vaults and Inheritance had been closed when I first died, Ragnarok. Not unless someone tried to get them because I became Dark."
"Ignoring the Ministry, the Light Fraction themselves tried to confiscate your wealth. However, since your Will specifically said that the Vaults will be opened if an Heir is brought. Four years ago, they brought an alleged heir."
"And pray tell why I am just hearing about this now?" The temperature turned cold as she speak.
"Because the girl in question is a Banned Doll carrying your DNA. You know the rings, they hated imposters. Add to the fact that Banned Dolls are Prince Family's Art." Ragnarok replied. "Also, when Redford is born, he was already the the Heir of yours. It activated when you died. Another emergency clause made by the Peverel Line."
"I see. Thank you, Ragnarok. What happened to the child in question? She may be a Banned Doll or a Homunculus, she is still a human being in my eyes." The Mistress of Death glance at the still quiet Reborn.
"Rose Potter is currently in a medical stasis since her creators tried to dispose her when the Potter Heirship ring rejected her. Poor child, she was in so much pain that day." Ragnarok told her. "We can wake her up if you want."
"I want to see her after our talk. Besides the obvious, any news for me?"
"The Ministry invoke the Marriage Law."
00000
Ministry of Magic,
The Ministry of Magic were filled with its inhabitants. They are peaceful ever since the Last Dark Lord Voldemort died twenty years ago in the hand of the Woman-Who-Conquered Hadrianna Potter.
Several reporters can be seen as the Minister of Magic, Ronald Weasly announced that they found the Savior and the plans for the Marriage Law where they would marry her off into a respectable pureblood.
Lumiere cannot help but to shake her head. She never thought she would miss this place since the Ministry is the first in her Arson List. Oh well.
"Signora?" Reborn glance at her.
"Stay and watch. If they try to subdue me, blood will rain in this place." She replied before sighing. "Does it makes me a monster for immediately thinking seven ways to slaughter everyone in this place for trying upon chaining me, Reborn?"
The Ex-Arcobaleno paused. "No. It was within your rights to make sure you are not manipulated yet again. I cannot say I can understand what happened to you when they held you captive but . . . according to Magic, they owe a Life Debt on you for saving their pathetic behinds from a Dark Lord."
"Life Debt, huh? Thank you for reminding me, Renato."
He tipped his fedora as he felt his partial bond slammed into place.
Lumiere is now his Sky.
00000
". . . we hereby announce that the Marriage Law is fully effective as of now. The very first wedding we will see is the Wedding between the Woman-who-Conquered Hadrianna Potter and—"
"And a man named Rico Fernadez, my love, my darling. Mine. He is an Italian pureblood even it is none of your fucking business." Lumiere commented as everyone turned around to see her standing beside a tall male in suit. "And for the record, my name is Lumiere, not Hadrianna."
Gasps and chatter filled the whole atrium. The reporters are shouting questions, over lapping the noise as the photographers wet mad snapping pictures.
"Silensio." Complete silence covered the entire place.
The Peverel Matriarch folded her arms under her ample bosom. Minister Ronald Weasly—along the other males in the atrium, cannot help but to lust upon her.
She did grew up as a very lovely woman, after all.
"I won't beat around the bush. I had no intention joining your cause. Repopulating the Magical Britain is not my concern. You, people lost all my respect twenty years ago, specially you, Weasly and Granger." Emerald green eyes flash into pale gold for a moment. "I am calling the Life Debt you all owe me."
"L-Life Debt?! What are you saying, Potter?!" The Minister snarled once the silencing spell vanished.
"The Debt you all owe me when I killed Voldemort," cue on the flinch. "Pathetic, he is dead twenty years ago but you people still flinched when his name is been mentioned?" she dusted the black sleeves of her yellow mini dress. "Hello, Ronald. Looking good, huh? Last time I saw you, you are behind Professor Dumbledore smiling when the old goat casted the killing curse on my face."
If the crowed could be heard, they could have made her and Reborn deaf from excessive shouting. However, only the silencing spells casted upon Ronald, Hermionie and several people had been removed.
"Lies! Professor Dumbledore did not cast the Killing curse on you!" Hermionie shouted.
"Then, are you saying that the autopsy done to my body when I died eighteen years ago are false, Granger? Sure I am standing in front of you, fully alive and that was because I am a Peverel. We usually do not stay dead." Here, she rolled her eyes as Reborn chuckled beside her. "Anyway, I will marry the man I love and not because of your machinations. I hate being caged, morons."
"So it seems you really turned Dark!" Oh dear, he is still a moron.
"If you think I am Dark, allow me to educate you, Weasly," Lumiere touched her lips as the whole atrium is filled with shadows even it is only late afternoon. "You just insulted the Family blessed by Lord Death himself."
She kind of liked the looks of pure horror the sheeple are sporting as her [Black Skeleton Army] rose from the shadows. Her babies crawl, growl and moaned, scaring the shit out of them.
"I, Lady Lumiere {Louise} Potter-Black-Peverel hereby call the Life Debt Magical Britain owned me for disposing the late Dark Lord Tom Marvolo Riddle also known as Lord Voldemort. So I swear, so mote it be."
"So mote it be." Lord Neville Longbottom replied beside her.
Lumiere and Reborn glance at him in amusement as the Vow take place. The two just waited until it settled before kidnapping the Herbology Master.

Neville Longbottom, now Lord of his family, happily married to the love of his life Luna Longbottom nee Lovegood, father of two kids in the age of thirty eight is now staring upon his Best friend and supposed to be dead classmate Lumiere and having some tea.
"Hello, Neville. Its been a while,"
" Eighteen years, Lumie. I know you are hard to kill but could you have stayed dead?" the sandy blonde male asked in a deadpan voice.
"I'm an anomaly, Longbottom. And I blame Potter Luck for it." Lumiere shrug her shoulders. "How are you?"
"Fine~. You know, I married Luna five years after the Incident, never invited the mongrels, have two sweet kids named Francis and Louisa Longbottom. Francis is going to enter Hogwarts next year. Oh, even you died, you are still the Kids' Godmother. I became a Herbology Master and Luna is currently breeding our pets crumbled horn snorklarks. They are kinda cute you know." Neville sigh. "Anyway, welcome back to the Land of living, bitch."
Lumiere giggled.
"Oh I missed you too, Nev. Sorry for kidnapping you."
"Where are we, anyway? I glance on the wall clock its what? Two am in the morning?" Neville glance on the dark sky from the window.
"You are currently in Peverel Manor stationed in Namimori, Japan, Lord Longbottom." Reborn replied as he sat on the armrest where his Sky is sitting. He took a sip of his Espresso.
"Japan?! Oh well, at least not in Saudi or heaven forbid, Australia. I would die in heat." The blonde studied his friend. "I'm glad that you are back, Lumie. And I see you are happy. Finally after the shit happened to you."
"Thank you, Nev. You can stay here and met my son tomorrow. . is it later? Today is Saturday so the boys will be here. Or you can go home. . I had an international Floo system."
"Maah, maah, Luna will understand, just allow me to call her. She might—"
Cue on a white flash of light as Luna appeared accompanied by a white Phoenix.
"—appear out of nowhere."
"LUNA! HEDWIG!" Lumiere jumped from her seat almost knocking her Sun out of the way as she hugged the stuff out of the younger woman.
"Hello Sorella. It's been a while." Luna commented as she returned the hug as Hedwig jumped on her chick's shoulder. "I might be sad you never visited me when you turned back time but I know you are taking care of Redford. The blumbering furs said so."
"Right. Sorry, Sorellina. My apologies, Hedwig. I'm glad the lot of you are well and healthy." The ravenette choke a sob as Hedwig rub her head on her hair. "I missed you, guys."
The door of the library harshly opened as a worried Redford appeared, wearing his orange pajamas and barefooted. Good thing all carpets are laced with warming charms especially since its almost winter.
"Mama! What happened?! I felt you—" the young heir paused seeing they have guests. "Oh c'mon! Mama, I know you are busy but entertaining guests in the middle of the night is overkill!"
"Aww, Tsu-kun inherited your temper, Sorella~" Luna cooed as she skipped towards the boy and hugged him. "My name is Luna, little Prince~. Aww, you looked like Sorella but you had your father's eyes. How cute."
Neville burst out laughing as Lumiere turned beet red.
"Oh Merlin! That's what exactly Sirius And Remus told her except Lumie is the female version of James Potter and she had Lily's eyes!" Lumiere kicked him on the side but the blonde Lord continue to howl in laughter.
"Shut up, Neville! Luna, stop teasing me and my son!"
"Uh lala~ Tsundere Lumie is out."
"I AM NOT A TSUNDERE!"
Her friends and Red just threw her a deadpan look.
"You know what, I have enough! I'm going to sleep! Luna, I need my personal teddy bear so let him go." Lumiere pouted as she took chibi Red from his Godmother. "Smell ya later! Suki will take you to your room!" By that, she left.
"She never changes." Neville shook his head in amusement.
"At least she is back in our lives, Nev. Its been lonely since we lost our Sky." Luna leaned on her husband's chest before glancing upon Reborn. "Thank you for being there, Reborn. Welcome to the family."
"Indeed I am." The ex-Sun Arcobaleno replied.
