Saving Anemone
Harry Potter x Katekyo Hitman Reborn
Fem! Harry
Fading! Harry (future arc only; like since there are so many times she could have died, there are times where she'll blink in and out of time, since this future is unstable, and beer life even more so)
Harry x Gokudera
Starts during the future arc of the manga/anime
Manga first published in Japan in October of 2004
They call her Ane-san (sister, pronounced 'aneh') for a nickname.
Anemone on a darker note indicates fading hope and a feeling of having been forsaken. On a positive note it symbolizes anticipation.
Which i guess really suits her, for this story. Since there are at least 10 times over her lifespan before she even got to meet the Vongola (Tsuna) that she could have died, (when her parents were killed, at least 1 time each year at Hogwarts, the whomping will or Aragog could have killed her in second year, the dementors during the quidditch game where she fell in third year, during the 3 tasks for fourth year, in the cave for sixth with the inferi, and then with the dragon in seventh, these are of course not counting her encounters at the end of the books with Voldemort and Remus/dementors. So actually she nearly died at least 16 times, before she even reached the age of 18).
So her name Anemone is fitting.
Since it is a ten year later meeting when Tsuna and co first meet her she would be either 17/18 (if i go through with the war, which seems more likely) or 15/16 (just after Sirius's death, when she is in turmoil and the populace know Voldemort has returned, and she would be slightly closer in age, though i could just change their ages around to fit my design).
I think I'll kick the tenth gens ages up by 2-3 years, though still not sure about Lambo and I-Pin...I'll just adjust their ages too! So instead of the gang being mostly 14 (i think Hibari, Ryohei and Mukuro are 16 in canon) they'll be 16-18, so in high school.
Tuna starts out at 13, and Hibari the oldest starts out at 15, both are a year older by the end of the manga, Lambo remains 5. Gokudera starts out as 14, so going with a three year advancement in ages he would be 17 for this story (His birthday is September 9th, so he could 18, like since his birthday is late in the year, he's slightly older than everyone else in his grade).

Tsuna and Reborn's birthday is celebrated in ch.22 of the Daily Life Arc (Ch. 1-61).
The Japanese school year begins in April… The first term goes till around July 20th, when summer vacation begins. Students return in early September for second term, which lasts until about December 25th. The final term begins early January and continues to late March.
The Daily Life Arc, starts maybe around September, goes through the new years and into the new school year, and then to summer break.
The Kokuyo Arc (ch.62-81) starts in the summer and goes to the fall.
The Varia Arc (Ch. 82-135) goes through the fall term, though the battles really only take a week ten days at max. It's the beginning of the next September. (It's been at least one year now)
The Future Arc (Ch. 136-282) starts about two days later, it is still the fall term in the past. They spend about a month in the future. After the raid on the Millefiore base, the group has ten days to prepare for choice.
The Choice Arc (Ch. 240-257) the game choice takes about a day.
The Future Final Battle Arc (ch.258-282) the battle starts probably a day later, and lasts about just as long.
The Inheritance Ceremony Arc (ch.283-346) the group returns, it is still September, where I think it was made so that no more than a couple days went by when they were in the future, maybe no time at all. A week occurs before Tsuna learns of the ceremony and about the same time Yamamoto is attacked. The fight between the famiglias takes maybe two days to complete. It is the day after this (or the battles took one day, and it is now the second day) that the fighting between the two groups are finished. So this arc lasses about 10 days. It's probably around the end of September.
The Curse of the Rainbow Arc (ch.347-409/end of manga) a week goes by, then another day were Mukuro has declared war against Tsuna, then another day happens where Tsuna learns his father will be fighting. The representative battle lasses 4 days. Several days pass where Tsuna receives a letter for Lal and Colonnello's wedding. Another week goes by, in which Tsuna once more refuses to inherit, and reborn leaves for he finished his work but then returns to make Tsuna into Neo Vongola Primo. It has now been at least a month since they returned from the future, a month and a half at most. It's definitely October now.
Which means the entire series spans a little over a year in time.
Which would allow for Gokudera being 18, I really kind of want him older than Harry. Which means he would have to turn 18 at the beginning of the series or right before. And so when Harry comes in during the inheritance arc, she would be 18, since she has a July birthday (her 18th would have probably occurred during the Kokuyo Arc). But then by the end of the manga Gokudera would have had his second birthday, I think, so he would be 19 by the end of it.
Gokudera has a birthday right before the series begins, then has another one sometime during the Varia or beginning of future arc. Anemone has her 18th birthday during the Kokuyo arc in July. So Gokudera arrives in Namimori as a fresh 18 year old, and then turns nineteen at the end of the series. So he is 10 months older than Harry/Anemone. And since his birthday is in September, he missed the grade cut off so that is how he is in Tsuna's class/grade (and maybe pulling some strings with the help of the Vongola).
Daily Life Arc Kokuyo Arc Varia Arc Future Arc Choice Arc Future Finale Battle Arc Inheritance Ceremony Arc the Curse of the Rainbow Arc
Anemon's box weapon will probably be a snake, since Chrome/Mukuro have a snowy owl, and Tsuna has a lion, the only animal that really represents Ane that is left would be a snake. Maybe she will have a super rare box (like the Vongola boxes), that is a basilisk. And her normal box could be either a cobra, anaconda, or a boa constrictor (which ever one she spoke to in the zoo when she was 11, which I think was either a boa constrictor or a Brazilian python). The basilisk boxes name should have 'Hebi' in it. Maybe call it Shibō Hebi, which means Death Snake. And Anemone puts a cloth/blindfold or maybe goggles on Shibō's eyes so he doesn't accidently kill people, only paralyze (Ane keeps a full stock of mandrake potions, to UN-prettify people).
When the Tsuna, Gokudera and Lal March arrive at the underground base with TYL! Yamamoto, and have greeted Reborn and Gianni, they head toward the kitchen, a d it is here where the two teens meet Anemone for the first time. At first Tsuna almost thought it was his mom, for Anemone had her back to them and was cooking. When the doors slide open she turns around to greet them, she pauses for but only a moment before she smiles warmly at the group. And Gokudera being who he is at the time demands to know who she is, and Ane just smiles, she apologizes, then bows introducing herself as Anemone, but tells them to please call her Ane-san. She then goes on to ask if anyone is hungry. Stomachs growl. Anew chuckles and waves toward the tables indicating for them to sit. She brings the food over to the table, and sits at the end of the table (Gokudera notices that from that position she can see the entire room). Eventually the silence gets to Tsuna, who gathers the courage to ask Ane if he knows her, she shakes her head, and states that in the timeline Tsuna is from, he and his friends have yet to meet her. She goes on to clarify that if all goes well, and they return safely to the past that the two should meet. Ane then urges him to make sure they meet, when the timeline corrects itself. For Ane doesn't really wish to die before she can meet him and the rest of the Vongola. Tsuna stutters some, but he says he'll look for her when they get back. Ane (and Reborn) nod satisfied with the answer; here Yamamoto/Reborn cuts in saying Tsuna can ask the ninth to send some men out to look for her, since Ane-san is from England.
When the gang arrives back in the past, Tsuna asks Reborn if he or his dad can go and look for Ane-san, so he can do as she asked him to. Word is spread around the Vongola and its allies, inquiring about Anemone (who luckily enough did receive the future memories like everyone else, but she is having trouble escaping England). The inheritance ceremony commences, and the Simone make their attack destroying the rings, but this is when Talbot arrives in the scene, and with him his apprentice; a ten year younger Anemone.
I have this head canon where Talbot is actually Nicolas Flamel (this head canon came about from reading 'Wintertide' by Araceil).
Anyway when Anemone received her future self's memories she started looking into the Vongola, but wants having much luck on that front, and well she was being monitored so she had to be careful. And when she was just about to give up hope she receives a letter. A letter from Nicolas Flamel, who offers her an apprenticeship with him and his wife. He also writes in his letter that he has much to tell her, and many answers to her questions. Also that if she can get to Gringotts within the next few days, he will be there to meet her, and she just has to ask the goblins, by asking for a Mr. Talbot.
I kind of now want Anemone to be a seer.
Anemone has a white flame, and her ring is the Peverell family ring (the resurrection stone).
If magicals were to learn about the flames of the sky/earth, then their flame would be white or in some cases a grayish white. But most magicals think that there magic is enough or superior so they don't even bother trying.
When Gokudera is trying to figure out the Sistema C.A.I., and does so he finds out he has one box leftover that he cannot open. He even has Tsuna with his sky flame try to open it, and even he fails. So he leaves it for now, since they have to leave for their raid.
But sometime during the future arc he catches sight of Anemone using her flames, which he finds out are a really pure white. So before he returns to the pass, when everyone is saying goodbye, he confronts her and asks if she can open the box. She looks surprised but she then gets a soft look on her face, and tells him that yes she could open the box, that in fact it was one of hers, that she gave to his future self for safe keeping.
She lights her ring, and inserts the flame, the box cracks open revealing a folded piece of paper and a photograph, Ane mumbles under her breath, "that silly, silly man", Gokudera can barely hear her. She hands him the box, stating something along the lines of no matter what time or universe he was in, where the two of them met, he was always a sentimental sap. She turns to go, throwing over shoulder, that when he finally meets her pass self 'to try and be nice to her'. Gokudera pulls out the piece of paper and photo, they are of a marriage certificate and a wedding photo. The married couple are an older Gokudera, and younger Anemone. He freaks out (kind of like Ryohei does about the photo of he and Hana), but Ane is long gone before he can ask her, and even when he sees her at the time machine, when the group leaves, he doesn't say anything. Not even when she asks the whole of them to try and look for her.
When they return from the future they do arrive right when they left, or at least later in the same day as when they left.
The Shimon/Vongola battle last 3 days and 2 nights.
1 week after Shimon/Daemon battle is when the representative arc begins
Even these blind eyes can see that...Talbot appears and looks at the rings, then states he can repair them, and when a Vongola member goes to follow him with them, he turns and says his apprentice/student can carry them. The people present look around because they didn't see anyone come in with him. They then hear footsteps (either heels clicking rapidly or bare feet), and in the doorway a young woman appears panting. "Master Talbot! You really need to stop doing that! I almost lost you!" He just grins, "But you made it anyway didn't you? Come carry these for me." She just huffs and follows the order. She walks farther into the room and the occupants gasp, the girl is covered in bandages all over. "Of course Master." And it is then when she reaches for the broken rings that Gokudera calls out "Anemone!" the woman turns to him and pauses, "Hayato." She looks at him for a bit, then turns to the others, "you look like shit." She then grabs the rings and follows after Talbot disappearing into another room so they can work. She leaves a shocked Vongola behind.
[So Anemone besides the bandages is wearing a long and flowing black dress that at the bottom is torn and ripped for easier movement. Her black hair is longer than Squalo's and hangs loose around her face, when she turns it seems to float or whip around her head, sometimes it obscures her face as well, and it is very similar in style to his 10YL hairstyle. The bandages look both old and new, like they've been replaced. (If she is wearing heels, they are black straps that are about 3 inches high). She seems to be thin and willowy...but not unhealthy looking, she's average in height, but still shorter than Gokudera.]
"So, Tsunayoshi that is Anemone-san." The nonno says, all Tsuna can do is nod. They group then goes onto speak about what to do next, while they wait for Talbot to return. Which happens soon enough. The pair return to the room, with Anemone holding a tray covered in glowing rocks. The conversation goes much like canon, but with Anemone handing out the stones.
When the stones transform, Anemone walks back up to the group, where she asks of anything still hurts, and if they would like her to look at their injuries. They allow her, so she then spends the next little while, healing the injured with her 'white' flames (magic). When she is done, she says "You probably have questions. But for now you must hold your tongues, for you have more important matters to attend to outside of my presence here. Just know that when you return from this battle, you will see me again soon enough, and may ask then." She gives a small smile to them, and turns to follow Talbot back out of the room, "it was good to see you all, do make sure you get Chrome-chan back safely." She leaves. Gokudera goes to follow her, but when he gets to the doorway the two have disappeared.
The plot then goes like canon, and the two groups return as friends to Namimori, where upon arrival to Tsuna's house, they see Ane sitting in the kitchen talking to Nana. The gang is surprised (and some suspicious, since they've never seen her before), but it is Lambo who breaks the tension, screaming out "Anee-chan!" He runs up and leaps onto her lap where he then starts to hug her and cry, all the while babbling on about how he missed her and how everything was all scary without her there. Ane smiles indulgently to him, and greets him in apology stating that she lived very far away and got a little lost along the way to see him. She turns to the others (holding Lambo in her arms), "I see you have all 'made' up with each other." She nods her head, like she's agreeing with herself, "If you would follow me, we can start answering each other's questions." She leads them back out of the house, and into town, heading towards one of the finer hotels (if not the best), where she then leads them to the pent house sweet. She ushers them into seats, sitting down herself, and placing a very content Lambo in her lap. "Where would you like to begin?" It is unsurprisingly Simone who begin by asking who she is. "My name is Anemone, Peverell Anemone, but you can call me Ane-san if you want. I am from England, 18, and I'm currently studying under Master Talbot, and learning all he will teach me." Tsuna then asks in a stuttering voice if she's alright, since she's covered in bandages. She nods and tells them not to worry, she had an accident when she tried to leave England before master Talbot came to get her. The group then question her about whether or not she will be staying in Namimori, she denies this, but promises to visit often, her excuse being she has much to learn from Talbot and her studies are very time consuming.
The day wines down with idle chatter, and people leaving one by one, till only Ane and Gokudera remain (Tsuna took a sleeping Lambo home with him). "You've been silent the entire afternoon Hayato. Is something the matter?" He gets up and moves to stand in front of her, "Did you receive all of your future memories?" She looks at him a little confused, and asks him to clarify what he means, he blushes and pulls out what looks to be an old and semi-torn photo. He hands it to her, she looks down at it, and blushes as well "oh". She looks back up to him, still blushing and says yes she remembers this, or at least she remembers her future self-unlocking a box for him that contained this.
The photo is of the two of them when they're older on their wedding day.
Ane asks what Hayato wishes to do about it, since that future no longer exists, he looks panicked for moment when he more or less yells "It doesn't have to be!" He blushes even more and goes to correct himself, "I mean, if you want, we could see and maybe find out what made our future selves marry each other." Ane blushes again and asks him if he's asking her out. He just nods, not wanting to embarrass either of them anymore than they already are. Ane beams at him, and gets up to hug him. She's happy to tell him that she would love to. He returns the hug.
I kind of now what Anemone to show up with Talbot, calling him either Master or grandfather. And he calls her, student/apprentice or Annie.
When Anemone tried leaving England (before Talbot/Flamel contacted her), she was attacked, and at some point hit over the head. And well Talbot had a bad feeling, so he went to where he knew her to be residing at the time. And the sight was horrible, he had to act quickly (which he did) just to save her life. Hence why all the bandages. And when she awakes she's all kinds of confused, and it determined that she has lost some memories, mainly the ones she got from the future, and a few others more recent ones, as well as some past memories. But this is not all her attackers did to her, in a way the broke her 'soul', one that was already damaged from the war, from dying, and from removing the soul fragment. So Talbot tells her how she was going to come and live with him, even if she's already of age, and she was going to become his apprentice. Anemone agrees to go with him, for the old man is nice, and wants to make her better. But now due to her soul breaking she acts a whole lot like Luna Lovegood, a little spacey at most times, but still able to pull it together at others and become serious. Her eyes also now look a little vacant and milky, but when she has her serious moments, her eyes clear up.
So she goes with Talbot (who came to get her around her 18th birthday, so during the Kokuyo arc for everyone else), who takes her first to his home in France, where he and his wife Perenelle, help Annie (for that's what they call her; and it is quite possible for people to be named different things in parallel universes), they are able to get her healed up, but by the time all her injuries are healed (she's gained a liking to wearing bandages, so it's now a fashion trend for her, and well she's a little accident prone, so the continuous wearing of bandages help cover up any other injuries she acquires. The Flamels' are also able to get her up to a healthy body weight, with the help of some potions, and a little elixir of life (the stone from first year was a prototype, or a fake, but they hid this fact from Dumbledore and the rest of the world, so they could go into econ deeper hiding/seclusion). But no matter how hard they try or what methods they use, they are unable to reclaim her memories, so the couple decide to just start her anew, and with the help of a time turner, they are able to accomplish a great many things in the year Annie lives with them. Eventually Talbot receives a letter from the ninth inviting him to the inheritance ceremony, he doesn't reply. But knows he will be needed, for Annie saw the fight with Shimon occurring and the destruction of the Vongola rings. So the two of them wait and prepare all that they would need to revive the rings, the day of the ceremony arrives, and the master and apprentice duo set off.
If Annie can see the future, or at least snippets of it (this only starts happening after her soul is broken/cracked), then it's possible that she saw the future fight between the Vongola and Millefiore. So while she lost the memories from her future self, she still knows what happened.
Actually I think I'm messing up my own timeline…. If Anemone's soul was broken after the battle of Hogwarts (she's almost eighteen then), which I decided occurred during the Kokuyo arc, then she should retain her future memories for she would have only gotten them a few months after her birthday in the fall. So maybe I'll have it where her soul had started to break/crack after the battle of Hogwarts, and them it finally shattered when she received her future memories, which just overloaded her fragile state of mind at the time, making her act more spacey like Luna. And her visions could have started soon after Voldemort's soul fragment was removed, because maybe it was dampening her powers. And the visions didn't help her at all, so when she just broke, it also helped her, because now she could handle them, with her mind being so vacant from memory loss, and now operating in a different way than before.
Though unlike Luna, who sees creatures no one else can, Annie sees the souls of things, like for the rings she can see their soul/spirit. For people it's kind of like her seeing their flames, but instead of their entire being/body being the flame it is only around their hearts. Yes I think I like this idea better.
So in a sense when the Flamels took her in, they adopted her, because even though she was/is of age, her mind wasn't there, making her act slightly younger at times, and even more so once her thought process changed from overload. So Annie is their heir, and main inheritor if they ever do perish. And with her being the possessor of the Hollows, and being the Peverell 'lord', her life is already expanded, and if she ever decides to take the elixir it would elongated her life even more. So her full name is basically Anemone 'Ane/Annie' Marie (Potter) Peverell Flamel, but she mainly/normally introduces herself as Anemone Peverell to 'muggles' and as Ane/Annie Flamel to the mafia. She barely ever goes by Potter anymore, but when she does it's normally in magic society, though even then she normally states her name as Peverell.
So right before the older Gokudera goes to visit Tsuna's grave, he has to leave the base. So Anemone walks him to one of the exits, where she dawdles for a bit, just erasing the creases in his suit, and all Gokudera can do is sigh, but you can see in his eyes the fondness for her. (Reborn is watching form somewhere, because he is very curious about this woman). Eventually she runs out of excuses to keep him there with her. So she steps aside, telling him to be careful and asking once more if he has everything. He nods, and noticing that words alone won't ease her worry, he pulls her into his chest, her rest his cheek on her head, and tells her he'll only be gone for a little while and should be back tonight, his hands rest along her stomach. He lets her go and then makes sure to tell her again, for what seems the hundredth time, to stay inside the base, to stay safe, and to not leave it unless it's being evacuated. She nods, and he kisses her on the lips, and then moves out of the base. She turns around to watch him leave, all the while resting her hands over her belly.
Reborn appears beside her, and starts asking her all sorts of questions, like what is her role with the Vongola, how did she get involved with the mafia. And just who is she…. She gives him vague answers and half-truths, stating the he Reborn is a smart man, and will figure it all out in time. She leads him to the kitchen, where he sits down at one of the tables, while Ane starts to cook dinner. He doesn't say anything for a while, but soon enough he voices one more question. "Are you pregnant?" Ane looks over at him, she just nods, with a little sad smile on her face, before she turns back to her self-given task, Reborn barely hears her mumble the words 'It seems that the children of my family are never born into peace time."
SUMMARY FROM REBORN WIKI ABOUT CHAPTERS WITH TALBOT IN THEM!
INHERITANCE CEREMONY ARC
Just then, an old man by the name of Talbot arrives and tells them that there is still hope. Talbot examines the rings and concludes that they were defeated by the Simon Rings with the Sin, much to everyone's surprise. Talbot offers to fix and upgrade the rings and also examines Tsuna and his guardians' Beast Rings, the Vongola Box Rings. He then pulls out a vial with the blood of Vongola Primo, Penalty. With all the ingredients necessary at hand, Talbot informs Tsuna that there is a 50-50 chance that the ring will be upgraded or destroyed and asks for his decision. Remembering his friends that are in danger, Tsuna agrees for Talbot to upgrade the rings.
Talbot agrees to fix and upgrade the Vongola Rings and asks the Ninth for a room to work on while Tsuna and his Guardians rest. As Talbot fixes the rings, Tsuna, Gokudera and Ryohei are grouped together, talking about the Simon Family that they treated as friends. Reborn tells them that Yamamoto was attacked because he let his guard down and that when they fight the Simon, they should not hesitate even for a moment. Tsuna is determined to not lose in order to clear the name of Vongola Primo.
Just then, Talbot enters the room carrying a bunch of jagged rocks that he reveals to be the Vongola rings. Seeing this, everyone begins to think that that the upgrade failed. However, Talbot informs them that the rings is still on their final stage before rebirth and informs them that Tsuna and his guardians needs to awaken the sleeping souls in the rings by concentrating on their strongest resolution to light up their most powerful flame in one go. Tsuna, Gokudera and Ryohei decide to go for it and starts to focus. However, their resolution is not strong enough and Talbot warns them that the rings will die. When Reborn tells them that their family is waiting for them, the three remembers their friends and successfully upgrades, their rings while Hibari, in another room, succeeds as well…
Tsuna, Ryohei, and Gokudera successfully upgrade their rings. Tsuna's ring changes shape while Gokudera and Ryohei's rings change into a belt and bangle, respectively. Talbot inform them that the rings have chosen the forms that best suits the wearer's abilities, which means that they are exclusively created for the Tenth Generation. Talbot calls the newly upgraded rings the Vongola Gear. The group decides to go check on Hibari but see that he disappears.
Just then, Ganauche arrives and informs them that they think that they have located Simon Family's base. They discovered letters from Cozart Simon addressed to Vongola Primo, talking about an uninhabited island not that far from Japan. Ninth orders to gather all of Vongola's strength and Weapons to attack the island. However, Tsuna requests that the battle with the Simon Family does not become a Mafia War, and to let him handle it for his friends. Ryohei and Gokudera tell him that they will go with him.
The Ninth Guardians and the Varia start to argue with Tsuna but the Ninth calms them down and orders that Tsuna's Family are to be escorted by Reborn as they subdue the Simon Family. However, he orders that Reborn is to not attack in any way and tells everyone to go. After the meeting, Reborn tells Tsuna to bring Lambo with them. Tsuna tries to reason with him but Reborn kicks him before he can continue and tells him to go back to the house to prepare.
As Tsuna and Reborn heads home, they see Kyoko and Haru shopping. Reborn asks Tsuna if he wants to greet them but Tsuna, not wanting to drag them to battle again, decides not to and leaves. When Tsuna arrives at his house, Nana gives him a package from Shoichi. Shoichi informs him that he had a vision from Yuni about the future and contacted the present time's Spanner who sent him a package that he passed on to Tsuna. Tsuna opens the package and sees headphones and the contact lens that are similar to the ones that he used during his battle in the future.
CURSE OF THE RAINBOW ARC - ENDING
Kawahira offhandedly greets the assembled group, much to Reborn, Yuni and Tsuna's collective vocal shock. Yuni notes that Kawahira was the person that had assisted them in the future, but Kawahira dismisses this. He notes that the group all had killing intent directed towards him, but explains that it was the wrong way of thinking. He then loosens his hold on his Dying Will Flames, an oppressive aura settling over the immediate area. Tsuna, Reborn, and Bermuda von Veckenschtein are all awed at the power shown, and Kawahira explains that his Flame was easily ten times the power of their own; and for him, utilizing it was as easy as breathing. However, the powerful man then explains that he was not comparable to human standards.
Verde questions Kawahira if he was an extraterrestrial, but Kawahira denies this, stating that he was more of an Earthling than them. He explains that "of his species", only he and Yuni remain. The man aliased as Checker Face muses that he wasn't originally planning to chat, but continues to explain that his species lived on Earth before the Homo sapiens species, and their sole goal was to protect the only known planet that supported life in the universe. He states that the Tri-ni-set were devices that balanced Earth's life force, guiding the growth and development of life, and reveals that the Tri-ni-set's original form was that of 7 stones, as before, when there were more than 10 of his species living, they alone could light all 7 stones. However, eventually most of their species died out, leaving only 5 of them left. With no other option, the species turned to the Earthlings for assistance and created the Arcobaleno Pacifiers, as they as a group of 5 were incapable of supporting the Tri-ni-set on their own. However, 3 of the 5 passed away, leaving only Kawahira and Yuni's ancestor, Sepira.
As the duo along with 7 Arcobaleno were still incapable of harnessing the Tri-ni-set's strength, they further split the Arcobaleno Pacifiers, creating the Mare and Vongola Rings. The Vongola Rings were entrusted to Giotto of the Vongola Famiglia, and the Mare Rings were entrusted to the Giglio Nero Famiglia, an organization of Sepira's own creation; their difference from the Arcobaleno Pacifiers were that they were removable, and caused less strain on the bearer due to reduced power. Thereafter, Kawahira took the role of managing the entire Tri-ni-set, although he and Sepira had a falling-out due to irreconcilable differences, as Sepira wanted to blend in with the humans. Reborn questions Kawahira why he disappeared in the middle of the future battle, to which Kawahira replies that he only appeared to ensure the well-being of the Arcobaleno Pacifiers.
Kawahira then attempts to get back on track, to pass on the Arcobaleno Pacifiers, but Tsuna protests, stating that there had to be an alternate option. Kawahira replies that if there was one, he would be using it, and comments to Tsuna that his name was one of the first on the list to succeed the current generation of Arcobaleno. Tsuna resolutely states that he is prepared, but Talbot suddenly arrives along with Bouche Croquant, holding objects that he reveals may be able to change the Pacifier protection process using certain orbs that utilized the Flame of Night's Speed of Light Warp Hole technique to keep the Pacifiers supported by Flames. Verde comments on the flaw in the plan, that Bermuda may be unwilling to supply the Flame of Night, but in a surprising turn of events, Bermuda agrees, stating that he did not wish his fate upon anyone else. Kawahira asks Yuni if he saw the well-being of the Tri-ni-set of the future, to which she replies in the positive. Kawahira explains that he was quite unwilling to enforce the terrible Arcobaleno Curse on people, but that he was forced to out of necessity. Talbot then informs the group that for the technique to work and keep the Pacifiers fueled with Dying Will Flames, they had to pour their all into the ritual. As the ritual begins, Skull asks Kawahira if afterwards, their curse would be released. Kawahira slightly smirks and replies that it would.
The Arcobaleno begin imagining themselves back in their real forms, but then they find that only Lal Mirch has returned to normal, despite Kawahira promising he would remove the curse, confusing everybody. Verde reaches the conclusion that the only part of their curse that was removed was the part that stopped them from aging, which means it would take some time for them to grow back to normal again. Gokudera, Yamamoto, Ryohei, Kyoko, Haru, and I-Pin all arrive, bringing gifts for Dino and Basil, who are hospitalized. They then go to the hospital together, but decide that Tsuna and Reborn should be the ones to go first to avoid annoying other patients. When Tsuna and Reborn arrive, however, they are shocked to find that the Varia are still in Japan and hospitalized in the same hospital. Byakuran then appears with Bluebell, destroying the wall that connects his room with Varia's to greet Tsuna.
This angers Xanxus, who fires his gun, destroying the wall to the next room. Much to Tsuna's shock, Hibari and the Kokuyo Junior High Gang are also in the hospital and both are annoyed by the interruption, leading them to fight and destroy even more parts of the hospital.
Later, Tsuna and Reborn talk on the rooftop. Reborn thanks Tsuna for his efforts that gave him another chance to live, much to Tsuna's embarrassment, who replies that it was also thanks to his friends that they were able to succeed. They recall Bermuda and the Vindice, who decided to protect the Pacifier Jar for eternity with their Flame of Night to prevent another group of people from suffering like they did. This makes Tsuna start to lose confidence in his own intuition, since he believed that the Vindice were bad people, but Reborn assures him that his intuition was right, and he should be confident about it.
Remembering the last battle, Tsuna asks Reborn who the man in suit was. Reborn eludes the question, much to Tsuna's confusion.
TALBOT'S WIKI BIO
Info
Kanji Name タルボ

Title Vongola Metal Craftsman

Status Alive

Manga Debut Chapter 299
Talbot (タルボ, Tarubo) is a craftsman who first appeared at Tsuna's Inheritance Ceremony.
History
Talbot is a craftman who has been working for the Vongola since Primo's generation. In Drama CD: Proof of Friendship, Giotto requested him to make golden pocket watches for him and his guardians as proof of their eternal friendship. Other than that, what Talbot had done during the next generations onwards is unknown, but he revealed that he has been researching about the mysteries behind the Arcobaleno and is quite knowledgeable about Bermuda and Arcobaleno pacifiers.
Plot Overview
Inheritance Ceremony Arc
After the Vongola were defeated by the Simon, Talbot appears and offers to fix the Rings. He states the risks of such an endeavor could potentially destroy the rings completely, which Tsuna accepts. After a bit of work, he brings the rings back in a completely dead-like state. When everyone was down, he asks the extent of their resolve and to light the flames, warning them that a weak attempt would destroy the souls in the rings for good. Tsuna, Gokudera, Hibari and Ryohei all manage to awaken the new Vongola Rings' form, the Vongola Gear.
The Curse of the Rainbow Arc
Talbot is mentioned to have created new Varia Rings, the payment being Mammon's entire fortune, and upgraded Xanxus's Varia Ring to allow his Box Weapon, Bester, to enter Cambio Forma. After the third day of the Representative Battle of The Rainbow, Tsuna met with Talbot and proposed an idea to save Reborn's generation of Arcobaleno.
In the final day of Representative Battle, after Tsuna defeated Team Bermuda, Talbot appears before Checker Face could make the next generation of Arcobaleno. He proposed another and much safer way to protect the Tri-ni-set without having to sacrifice Arcobaleno. He created special jars that able to contain Seven Flames of the Sky, using Bermuda's Flame of Night within the jar to accelerate the flames to provide enough power to replace the Arcobaleno Pacifiers.
Talbot's Equipment
He can hear the spirits of the Vongola Rings and even knows about the Vongola Box Rings. Unknown, and much to the shock of the Vongola, he's had in his possession the Penalty, which is the blood of Vongola Primo. Talbot seems to be well informed, knowing about the blood of Cozarto Simon and the Simon Rings, something that even Timoteo was unaware of. He's an expert metal craftsman who can even repair the highly damaged Vongola Rings. In order to upgrade the Vongola Rings to match the power of the Simon Rings, he needed the Vongola Box Rings and Penalty. However, there would be a 50% chance of being able to gain the power, and in case this fails, he mentions that the rings would forever lose its light. Talbot is also capable of upgrading Box Weapons to Cambio Forma through the use of Rings, as shown through his Cambio Forma upgrade to the Xanxus's Varia Ring.
Equipment
◾Lævateinn's Hilt - Lævateinn is a flaming sword known as the "Wounding Wand" or the "Staff of Destruction." Lævateinn makes its wielder invincible in battle and is able to fight without someone holding it.
◾Hammer - Talbot's hammer was used to repair the highly damaged Vongola Rings.
Trivia
◾Talbot has a sheep, and taking care of the sheep was the reason why Talbot was late to the ceremony.
◾In drama cd, it's revealed that he used to own an antique shop.
