"I'm so sorry," Tsuna says, one arm around Reborn's shoulders to try and say 'look, he's totally under control, everything is fine' even though half of Hogsmead is now destroyed.

Dumbledore peers at him with a bemused expression, but the Minister of Magic and his advisors don't look anything close to happy with the situation. Skull is still half hidden behind the Headmaster, staring at Reborn with wide eyes.

The intimidating court room is filled with magical police officers and the ceiling is swarming with strange creatures that look to be cloaks with skeletal hands. Behind Tsuna is a massive chair with shackles attached to it that he really does not want to sit in.

Tsuna could have just walked away when the commotion started, but he'd feel bad if Reborn killed anyone, so he dived into the fray like the masochist he is. Tsuna tucks the small hitman further into his side and smiles sheepishly up at the wizards and witches.

The Minister scowls, along with the… pink thing next to him. "Do you think an apology will help the situation? The immense damage done-"

"I swear, I had no idea Mukuro and Kyouya followed us," Tsuna blurts out. "And the explosion in the apothecary was Bianchi and oh God I didn't mean for Xanxus to get into the pub – I will replace any alcohol he drank."

"He drank all the alcohol," Reborn reminds Tsuna.

Skull starts banging his head against the wall.

The Minister splutters. "That's not even the worst part! You attacked The Boy Who Lived!"

"The who?" Tsuna asks with a wince. "A lot of people got hurt, I didn't really keep track."

Skull sighs and pulls away from the wall. "It's me. Harry Potter."

The room stares at him, confusion quickly turning to horror and then rage. Even Dumbledore seems stunned.

"…What?" Skull asks. "What is it now?"

Reborn smirks. "Are you sure you're the real Harry Potter? Your scar seems to have been flattened a bit."

Skull reaches up, frantic, and pats at the plasticine scar covered in lots and lots of makeup. It faded a couple days after he got rid of the soul shard, but he kept it since everyone knew the symbol by then. His fingers brush the raised edges. It's crooked.

Skull laughs nervously. "It's fine, just a trick of the light."

"Aurors!"

Skull sinks back into the couch sheepishly, looking around the old Potter home in England. He fiddles with one of his ear piercings, feeling rather strange without the usual costume and make up on. "I'm really sorry," he says again.

"It's not your fault," James insists, hands curled around a cup of tea. "None of us thought they'd track us down like this."

"And lock us in our own house," Lily grits out, one hand clutching a wooden spoon while the other carves it into a vague wand shape with a sharp knife. "And take our son away to throw him at a bloody Dark Lord."

James purses his lips and decides against mentioning how Remus and Sirius were both carted off to Azkaban despite multiple protests that they were friends. It's not an issue now, since a group of people called the Varia charged the prison and now the two are hiding in Itlay.

James puts an arm around Lily's shoulders but it doesn't seem to calm her any. James looks to Skull instead. "How's everything going?"

Skull's real body looks over his shoulder into a meeting room filled with the Vongola. Up on the wall is a screen transmitting the small camera they pinned to Reborn's lapel. The hitman is currently in the process of stepping on a rat, with several Death Eater corpses scattered behind him.

Tsuna catches Skull's eye and points at the phone the Decimo is holding to his ear, then gives the stuntman a thumbs up. Skull nods in thanks and turns back to Chrome, who's sitting in front of him and transmitting the Mist construct into the Potter's home. Skull did try getting in but it's heavily guarded so it's simply easier to do it this way rather than to forcefully break in.

When Skull's consciousness is transferred again, he open his eyes to find James and Lily focused on him. "Harry just got to Rome," Skull informs the worried parents. "He'll be here in half an hour and you can talk to him."

Lily sighs in relief and finally stops hacking away at the wood. The spoon is starting to look more like a stake than a wand.

"And everything else?" James asks, reaching over and gently easing the weapons away from his wife.

"Um," Skull begins. "It's not bad."

"What do you mean by 'not bad'?" Lily echoes in worry.

Skull waves her off dismissively. "It's not very interesting right now. Reborn is the World's Greatest Hitman, so he's not even trying," the stuntman admits.

"You sent a hitman to rescue my son?" James cries out.

"No, no," Skull reassures quickly. "We sent CEDEF to rescue your son. Reborn is there because he likes killing things and he's very good at it."

The Potters stare at him.

"So… yeah, it's not bad," Skull shrugs. "I'll tell you when he starts doing trick shots, though."

.

A/N: Skull wouldn't lead a charge on the Death Eaters, not when he has proper resources now and there are trained people available. A bit anticlimactic, I'll admit, but there was no logical reason for him to have a fight to the death with Voldemort.

And that's all, folks. I hope you enjoyed the journey and aren't disappointed by the ending…

P.S. I just assume Reborn finds Voldemort and they bond over terrorising people before becoming BFFs. This might just be Triumvirate talking.
