I don't own the Sailor Moon character, Hotaru Tomoe or Sailor Saturn, However her long name is mine. Also I don't own Harry Potter, he's J.K. Rowling's.
Soft ruby eyes looked sadly down at the light white parchment in her hands. Setsuna Meioh, Sailor Pluto, the guardian of time knew what this tiny letter meant. She sighed, as she turned her gaze to Haruka Tenoh and Michiru Kaioh. Blonde Haruka nodded gravely, a slim smile cast over her lips. Michiru laughed happily and hugged her lover. "What's going on Setsuna-mama?" A quiet voice asked. "Hotaru. We have something you need to see and here, Hime-chan." Haruka grinned. Hotaru's violet eyes widened as soon as she was given the letter. She looked pale, then happy, and then ecstatic. "Magic?" She whispered.
**A few days later***
Hotaru found herself gazing around a lovely shopping area. She couldn't believe what Setsuna, Haruka and Michiru had told her. She, not Sailor Saturn, not the Princess of Saturn, but Hotaru Tomoe was a witch. A very normal, 2 years from teen hood witch. Hotaru was so excited to learn she had a real family. Her witch powers were and had been long descended from her mother's side. It wasn't that her mother was a poor witch, when she died, it was that her power and emotions were weakened by a best friends life being taken away, that caused her death in the fire. Hotaru was so happy to learn of all she could about her bloodline and being a witch. Occasionally she came across the popular name of Harry Potter, but at the moment she and Setsuna were purchasing some items for her first year at the English school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Hogwarts. They had already gotten her robes, hat, gloves, winter cloak, and books. She and her mother figure were now finishing the other equipment list with her first ever wand. When the two walked into the wand shop, Ollivanders, they found a boy with an old man. The boy held his wand cautiously, and glanced at Hotaru.
Harry held the wand with the phoenix feather carefully as he looked at a pair that entered the room. "Mr. Ollivander?" Came the taller green haired woman's voice to the old man near him. "Setsuna?" The man laughed loudly as he came up and shook hands with the tall woman. "Hello again, Mr. O." She grinned, placing a hand on the girl's shoulder. Harry gapped as he looked at the young girl about his age. She was thin and small. Smaller than even he was, which he thought to be impossible. Her dark violet eyes gazed at him curiously, yet shyly. Dark black hair was kept up in a small tiny ponytail. In her hands was a tiny cage and in it, a small pitch black owl. The owl looked up at him with strange stormy gray eyes. He looked at the girl some more. She wore a black set of pants and a light purple shirt with pretty ruffles. Her pale skin contrasted with the leather gloves on her hands. "Hi…" Her gentile voice shocked him.
Hotaru looked at the boy in front of her. He had dark long hair that came slightly over his dark brown eyes. His broken glasses gave off a sort of geekish, yet speedy boy look. His soft features were tilted as he two watched her. She was too caught up in his eyes to notice almost anything else about her. Softly her voice echoed in her own ears as she greeted him. "Hi…" A simple word and she would be off. "Hello…" the slim boy blushed a little and glanced away. "SO…the little miss is getting her first wand, huh?" Mr. Ollivander smiled. He took one look at Setsuna who nodded and went straight to the back. When the mysterious old man returned he held a red wood box. "This was your mothers, little lady." He handed her the wand as she took off her dark black gloves. There was a soft warm, caressing feeling that swept over Hotaru. She smiled and glanced approvingly at the man. He grinned, "Knew it. That's got a star stone on it that only you girls ever have been able to use." He shook his head and turned back to his work. "Come on, Hime-chan." Setsuna shoed the girl away from the wand area.
Harry sighed as he watched the lovely girl leave. A soft tapping on the window made him aware of Hagrid. Sighing as he struggled to defeat his beating heart, he waved to his shopping companion who lifted up a white owl in a cage. He grinned happily and ran out to join the tall giant.
