Harbingers' Reunion

{AN: This is my presentation of the eleven Harbingers. It would most likely be different than the original but whatever}

Tomoki crossed the eternal blizzard, reaching the Zapolyarny Palace, only taking the hood of his white coat as he stepped in where he was guided by ice dolls towards a Hall.

Entering the Hall, only three people were inside. The 11th Harbinger, the Capitano, a tall man with a helmet that covered his face, making it impossible to discern his true identity; Arlecchino, the 7th Harbinger, a cold white-haired woman that seemed to have a pissed look plastered on her face; and finally, a beautiful black-haired with pink tips girl that smiled brightly showing a childish side and had her eyes closed and covered by a white net-like mask, Columbina, the 3rd Harbinger.

"You are one of the firsts, good job not losing your way" Arlecchino stated.

"One of the first to come, would he become one of the first to leave?" Columbina giggled while swinging her body from side to side. Then she made a light step and her body flashed, instantly appearing next to Tomoki.

"You have grown" Columbina stated "But would it be enough to last here?"

"Don't worry about me. I will live" Tomoki said convinced.

"We will see♪, we will see♪" Columbina hummed, her body flashing again and returning to her previous position.

"Don't tease the poor boy, Columbina. He has enough." Capitano reprimanded.

"At your orders, Capitano!" Columbina saluted with her hand on her forehead, before bursting into giggles.

"Oh? Isn't it Tartaglia? Long time not seeing you" An old man with white hair and a perfectly trimmed mustache entered the Hall. He was the 9th Harbinger, Pantalone "Are you enjoying your eternal holidays at the islands? How is Allen doing?"

"You!" Tomoki gritted his teeth in fury seeing Pantalone calm smile. Tomoki approached him clenching the neck of his coat.

"What have you done to such a poor child? He has a kind heart but his mind is completely rotten!" Tomoki lifted his right hand, prepared to punch Pantalone.

Seeing the punch, Pantalone remained calm, keeping his neutral smile "Can you afford it, Tartaglia?"

"Tch!" Tomoki lowered a little his punch, but in the end thought otherwise.

*Bang!* Tomoki punched Pantalone directly in the face, throwing him over 5 meters before falling to the ground, breaking some teeth and inflating his face. Then, he took a bag from his coat and threw it to Pantalone, the little bag giggled in the air showing that it contained Mora.

"I'm becoming old for these things" Pantalone took out the bag with his right hand that started to glow with yellow light. Pantalone's face started quickly healing while the content of the bag started lowering. In only 2 seconds, Pantalone was good as new.

"I'll take the change" Pantalone smiled giggling the remaining coins over the bag.

"Don't waste your time and money, Tartaglia" Arlecchino stated "You are not the only one that would like to punch him, but in the end, we know how low esteem he has for his own body. You will only make him richer."

"Tch!" Tomoki clenched his teeth, but knew that Arlecchino was right, he turned around leaving Pantalone on the ground.

"For you to know, I didn't do anything to Allen. I simply tested him. It's all due to him, that's his nature" Pantalone smiled "If you discover how he turned like that, share it, I would pay a good amount for it as it would have great uses."

"Fighting between each other?" A group entered, the first was a short man with a very long nose, giving him an image of a goblin. He was Pulcinella, the 5th Harbinger "Show a little of decency."

"Utterly risible" From the entrance entered a beautiful young woman with long brown hair who was mounted on the arm of a 2.5m tall robot. She was Sandrone, the 4th Harbinger.

"Fail quickly so that I can use your corpse" From behind Sandrone, a man with green-blue hair and a mask that covered his eyes entered. He was Il Dottore, the 2nd Harbinger "A body affected by such curses, it would be a great material even after death."

"How disrespectful. You shouldn't rush the decisions, he is not even dead" A tall blonde woman stated coldly, not really mattering the talk at all. She was the 8th Harbinger, Signora.

"Would you please fuck up yourself!" A pissed voice full of anger sounded over the hall, a short boy with indigo short haired entered the scene. He was Scaramouche, the 6th Harbinger "You are all talking as if his death is a fact. Just shut up! He won't die!"

"But it's a fact" Columbina interjected with a bright smile "How much time lived the last Tartaglia...?" She put her hands on her head as if putting a lot of effort into thinking about it "OH? I know! Only two years!" She beamed happily.

"And none had lived over 12 years after obtaining the title. Ah?!" Columbina sighed "Poor little Tartaglias, all so short-lived!" She started giggling.

"Bitch!" Scaramouche cursed clenching his hand, putting himself on guard as if preparing to fight.

"Do you really want to fight?" A big grin appeared over Columbina's face, causing shivers to all the other Harbingers with only Sandrone and Capitano as the exemption.

Scaramouche backed down unconsciously, but quickly clenched his teeth, stepping forward to face Columbina.

"Perfect!" Columbina's grin became even deeper.

"Don't rile up the boy, Columbina" Finally, the last Harbinger entered the hall. The considered the strongest and leader of the group, the 1st Harbinger, Pierro "We are not here to fight between us."

"Tch!" Columbina clicked her tongue "We were so near."

Columbina's position among the Harbingers was quite high, there being very few people who dared to face her, leaving her unbounded to do whatever she wanted. However, the limit was Pierro. In his presence, she really didn't dare to cross that line.

"Whatever, there will be other opportunities" Columbina returned to her smile.

"Now that we are all reunited here, bow before her Majesty, the Tsaritsa" Pierro stated, starting to bow towards the entrance, the other Harbingers quickly following his steps.

For the first time, the icy doors, completely opened, the Tsaritsa entering the hall showing her cold and majesty. "Happy New Year, Harbingers." she stated emotionless as always.

"It's time for the purge. Tartaglia, Capitano, Signora you have been summoned, prepare for it"

"Hi!" The three of them shouted while bowing even lower.

"Remember, only the strong remain" The Tsaritsa said.

"Only the strong remain!" All the Harbingers shouted in the unison.

All of them left the hall, going to an open field that was surrounded by chairs of different sizes, each Harbinger sitting in one, their rank showing the height of their chair, the Tsaritsa at the tallest and Capitano at the lowest.

Before taking their seats, Columbina grazed Tomoki.

"Don't die" Colombina warned at Tomoki before taking her seat "We don't want to lose teasing material against Scaramouche."

Scaramouche also stopped Tomoki "I trust you. Don't let me down" Scaramouche lightly punched Tomoki's chest.

"Thanks" Tomoki said trustfully before taking his seat with a serious look 'I will survive!'

"The Purge shall start!" The Tsaritsa announced and a man entered the field. He seemed quite strong, with huge muscles, a huge greatsword and a Pyro Vision hanging over it.

"I challenge you, Tartaglia!" The man pointed at Tomoki who left his chair and entered the field, lifting one sword at each hand, preparing to fight.

"Start!" Both men charged against the other.

...

A number of combats had happened, tainting the pure white field red with blood. As the last combat finished, Tomoki stood panting exhausted while his enemy, a brown haired boy wielding a bow and an Hydro Vision, laid on the ground unconscious.

Tomoki was fully exhausted, blood splatted everywhere and his left arm scorched black.

"The Purge has ended. There's no changes" The Tsaritsa announced before leaving her seat, letting the Harbingers alone.

"So he had survived. What a pity" Dottore lamented.

"What a cute spectacle!" Columbina beemed "That last final struggle in the mid of pain, truly gorgeous!"

"We will need to wait for the next Purge" Sandrome announced.

"Will he last until the next one?" Capitano analyzed seeing Tomoki's condition.

"Only time will tell" Pierro said "Struggle, become stronger, fight against fate. All for the Tsaritsa's favor."

After that every Harbinger left the field, only leaving Tomoki and Scaramouche.

"You fought well" Scaramouche proclaimed "Let me bring you to a hospital" he lifted Tomoki, letting him support over his shoulder.

"I found something to fight. I won't die until it ends" Tomoki said strongly.

"Let's hope it never ends then."
