The warm and illuminating sun had risen on this morning over Uminari City. Many people within the city were already awake and opening up shop for a new day, while others were just waking up to this new morning.
It was the latter for one who lived in the Urban District Apartments of the city.
The young lad had been awakened from the annoying beeping sound of his alarm clock. A clock that was placed and set upon his desk, which in turn was a small distance from his futon.
There was a near silent growl of annoyance from under the covers, since he would have to get up if he wished to stop the beeping of the alarm.
He ignored it for a few minutes, but soon the beeping was finally getting on his nerves. Causing him to throw the covers off his back, climbing off his futon, walking over to the desk and shutting the alarm off.
The silence allowed him to sigh in relief as he rubbed his eyes to get the dirt out of them. Just like his father, Harry Potter wasn't a morning person, as he would rather get up at ten instead of six.
Sliding his glasses into place, giving him clear sight of everything, he looked at the paper calendar on the desk and removed yesterday's piece. He saw it now read 'Monday 10 April, 1989'. They were already into the second week of the new school year.
Looking back at his bed he sighed in disappointment, he knew that the bus would be here in an hour, and he had to get ready for school. Also, knowing for a clear fact his caretaker would kill him if he missed the bus.
Picking up his school books and placing them into his bag, along with the homework and stationary, he zipped it up, and clipped the top in place.
Walking down the stairs, with uniform and bag in hand, he pulled open the curtains to allow the sun to shine on into the room. After a week of rain, it looked like the sun was now shining bright, signalling for a beautiful day.
However, the boy was too sleepy to even care as he made his way into the bathroom, after placing his bag on the table. Running the shower to clean off and wash away the remainder of the drowsiness. While doing so, his thoughts had drifted to that of his family.
A lot had changed in the last two years for his family while he was placed here for his safety.
They made sure to keep good contact with him, visiting at the end of every month, on a weekend, to see him. Bring his brother and sisters along with them, which would usually end in a fun day for the family.
They did have a bit of a problem with the Japanese ministry when one of their parole officers discovered that a British-Wizarding boy was living alone, in less than a week of living here. Though the mess was quickly clean up before it became a problem.
Harry's parents were brought before the Japanese Minister of Magic. He didn't know what was said between them but when Dumbledore was called in, the situation was cleared with Harry's name marked down on their books as, Harrison Evans, under guardianship of his caretaker.
When they boy asked what happened, they just smiled and said this minister was a kind person.
He later found out what happened a year later. Dumbledore had supported the Japanese representative at the International Confederation of Wizards, ICW, and are now in the mists of building their first ever ICW approved magical school.
While Japan has multiple magical school, an ICW approved magical school means they can officially and legally accepted wizard and witches from other parts of the world. Or should one of the ICW approved schools be shut down for repairs, then that school would have some students sent to it from the closed one.
But that was one problem in Japan, which was solved without worry. However, back in the United Kingdom…
Firstly, the wizarding world back in that country seemed to have been rejoicing when he disappeared from sight, as Jayden was officially named the 'Boy-Who-Lived' and the conqueror of 'You-Know-Who'.
From what his twin brother told him, the last time they visited, he hated the bloody title.
This is because any and every time he sets foot into Diagon Alley, he is swarmed by wizards and witches who want to meet him. Many of the older families, disturbingly, pushing their daughters towards the boy in hopes for future unions.
After all, he wasn't only the 'Boy-Who-Lived' now, but he was also the eldest and there for a future heir to the Ancient and Most Nobel House of Potter.
But it wasn't just Jayden getting the contracts, Evelyn and Katherine was also getting them as well.
Hell. Lucius Malfoy, a man who claimed he had been acting under the Imperius Curse during the last war, had marched up to his father. He demands to form a marriage contract between Malfoy's only son, Draco, and Potter's eldest daughter, Evelyn.
A marriage contract that a few slipped in clauses that stated Evelyn would be Draco's property. That the Potter's would pay them a dowry of fifty thousand galleons. Finally, that Draco would become the next Lord Potter instead of Jayden.
Luckily James never signed anything, without having his account manager at Gringotts go through the contracts. The only reason he would even look at it was because the current minister, Millicent Bagnold, was pushing for it to be signed.
Let's just say, by the end of 'that' meeting once those hidden clauses were revealed, Lord Malfoy decided against the contract and now refuses to be anywhere near Lord Potter or his family.
Though what make it even worse for Jayden, was the fact those 'fans' where buying the illegally made Jayden Potter books. Books that held stories of him doing completely ridiculous frets, such as single-handedly riding a dragon while waving a sword when he was six.
James tried to get the books stopped, but the Wizengamot voted for the books to continue. As Minister Bagnold stated under the lines that 'the wizard should know the frets done by the true Boy-Who-Lived', despite the fact they were lies.
Lies that will cause the boy problems in the future.
Also, it seems Rita Seeker had taken to stalking them whenever they were in public, commenting every step made in the Daily Prophet. Even some hurtful comments about Lily and her daughters, written in a way that it couldn't be held in court as written insults.
The only privacy for the family was behind the wards at Potter Manor, at Black Manor, or when they came to visit Harry.
Harry would remember times that he would hear his dad mutter that he may just let Jayden, Evelyn, and Katherine came here and enrol them in the elementary school Harry was in, kindergarten for Kat.
This was mainly due to the stress the British Wizarding world was causing.
Looking at his reflection in the mirror, Harry smiled as he was clean and changed into his uniform. After cleaning up behind himself, Harry moved on out of the bathroom and into the kitchen to make some breakfast.
He still had half an hour before he needed to go and catch the bus.
As he placed a bowl of cereal on the table, with an apple and some orange juice, there was a knock at the front door. Wondering who could be here this early, he walked on over and opened the door slight, Harry smiled at who was standing there.
Remus Lupin, his caretaker and godfather.
A lot had changed for this old werewolf, once he moved out here to Japan.
At one stage in his life the premature lines on his face, as well as his graying hair. These were the results of the great deal of stress his body underwent with each full moon and the discrimination from wizards in the British Ministry.
Also, because of his inability to find a decently-paid job due to his status as a werewolf, his clothing was consistently shabby and patched, making him look like an unfortunate beggar.
But that all changed when he was asked to come out here, becoming the caretaker for his godson, while Harry was in Japan.
The first thing that changed was the fact that the Japanese Ministry was one of five countries that didn't discriminate against werewolves. Instead, they had several special locations around the country for them to transform on the night of the full moon, without worry of harming others.
The second change came in payment. Since James and Lily knew that Remus wouldn't accept money for his time of looking after Harry, they took a different approach.
They had purchased an antique bookshop that had a spiral staircase leading up to the second floor that overlooked the first, with his own personal living quarters in the back of the shop. Since Remus loved books, a job as an antique book seller sounded like a perfect match.
The Potter's owned it, hired Remus as the manager for the shop with pay set into a personal account, as well as letting him have the personal living quarters in the back. Remus loved it, plus Harry would help out from time to time.
The books sold in the shop ranged from the up-to-date range of books, light novels, and manga. But at the same time, it also sold old fashioned books that you wouldn't find in a normal bookshop nowadays. Plus the shop could import books from another country.
Anyway, with the helpful ministry, a place to live, and a job he loved with a decent wage, from which he could get some nice clothes and food. The man's appearance begun to change to a more cheerful one.
"Morning, Uncle Remus." The boy greeted as the man removed his shoes and placed them on the shoe-rack.
"Good morning, cub." The man greeted back as he took a seat at the table, grabbing an apple from the fruit bowl and taking a bite out of it.
This was a normal routine that happened once a week, sometimes more. Since the man couldn't come and check up on Harry on the weekend due to work, he would come before the boy had to head on off to school.
Though on this day, the boy noticed a certain look in the man's eye.
"Has something happened, Uncle Remus?" Harry asked concerned, as his caretaker would usually come and inform him when something big happens in the British Wizarding World.
"Yes, it seems the British Wizengamot had a piece of legislation brought before it. One that would order the arrest of any and all British-born squibs." The man replied, which in turn caused the shocked boy to drop his spoon onto the table.
He blinked slowed and asked, not believing his ears. "W-what?"
"It's as you heard it cub," Remus replied, sighing. "It was led by Dolores Umbridge, who is the head of the Improper Use of Magic Office, and Lucius Malfoy." The old werewolf explained, "Lucius was understandable, he wanted revenge after being humiliated over the whole marriage contract issue. But Dolores, she's a mystery one right now…"
"What about the legislation?" the boy asked, in a bare whisper.
Remus smiled, placing a hand on the boy's shoulder for support. "It failed." He said softly. "You're father and Sirius at the moment have far too many political allies, for something like that to be passed."
Looking to the clock to the side, Remus saw it was nearing seven.
"Anyway, you should be off now." He said, pointing out the time to the boy. Causing the lad to go and pick up his bag and make his way over to the door.
"You have a spare key, so please make sure you lock up and set the alarm." The boy told him, putting on his shoes and grabbing his key of the hook by the door.
Remus just waved him off. "Yes, I will do so." The older man replied. "Just get going, or you will be late." He added before calling out once last thing. "And please tell Miss Tsukimura that the book she ordered has arrived."
"Will do, see you later," Harry called leaving his apartment.
Closing the door behind him, the boy headed on down the elevator and greeted the receptionist, before heading on out of the entrance and onto the bus stop.
He found himself slowing slightly as he neared the stop, noticing a familiar face was already standing there waiting for the bus.
Said person seemed to be humming to herself as she was smiling. "Ohayo, Nanoha." He called and waved towards an auburn haired girl with blue eyes and wearing a female version of the elementary school uniform he was wearing.
The girl blinked and looked over in his direction, seeing it was him the girl smiled. "Ohayo, Harry." She greeted back.
This girl was Nanoha Takamachi, she was the second official friend that he had made out in this country. Her family owns a popular café known as Midori-ya, which was just down the road from his Uncle Lupin's bookshop.
It was that being the reason they had met.
Since they were in the same class in Grade One, she always came off as shy and distant from others. However, from when Harry would go to their café or Nanoha came to the bookshop when he was helping from time to time, a friendship between the two was form.
From it, after a while, she begun to open up and showed more of a cheerful and funny side. Though sometimes she also shows an airheaded side, in which he noted, as she would forget simple things from time to time.
It should also be noted that it was from seeing Nanoha's father, older brother, and sister train, that Harry had become interested in, as well as having taken up, sword wielding. Something that Remus agreed to, mainly to make sure that Harry stayed fit.
However, his two wooden katana-like training swords were under repairs at the current moment.
Though it was slightly amusing when Jayden found out about Harry taking sword lessons, he had convinced their dad to give him sword lessons. So while Harry learned this way, Jayden was learning to wield a rapier blade.
Their talk about the maths homework due this day was cut short as the school bus arrived. As they climbed onto the bus, greeting the driver, they moved on down the bus isles as a voice called out to them.
"Nanoha, Harry, over here."
As sitting at the back of the bus, was two girls their age. One had green eyes and dirty blonde hair with two sprigs sticking out on either side, while the other had blue eyes and darkish violet hair that had a white hairband in it.
They were Arisa Bunnings and Suzuka Tsukimura, two of their closest friends out of all the students in their third-grade class.
"Ohayo, Arisa, Suzuka." Nanoha happily greeted, taking a seat between the two girls.
Harry, on the other hand, took the free seat on Suzuka's left. "Ohayo Suzuka," he greeted, before looking at the girl on Nanoha's right. "Ohayo, Frankenstein Monster." He replied like nothing out of the normal, as he pulled out a book from his bag.
Said girl's eye twitched at the greeting, admitting an aura that made Nanoha wish she took the seat on Suzuka's left. "Do I look like Frankenstein Monster?" her voice carrying a certain tone.
The boy looked up from his book and smiled. "You're right, you don't." He said, nodding his head. "You remembered to put makeup on to cover it today, good job." Harry stated, before turning back to his book. Ignoring the fact that Nanoha was trying to stop Arisa from climbing over her and Suzuka to strangle him.
The violet haired girl just sighed, pulling out a notebook. She flipped to a certain page, making a point under Harry's name. 'Seems that Harry finally tied the score.' She thought, putting it away.
Looking between the two, Suzuka knew Harry and Arisa both held a certain temper that causes them to become competitive against one another in anything, bar sports.
Sports were Suzuka's one domain that would even cause these two to back down and admit defeat.
However, one reason for the competitive sides was the fact that Arisa held the spot as the top student for Grade One but came second in Grade Two, while it was vise versa for Harry. Another reason you could also add on was the fact that both their parents were successful business people.
However, they were still good friends outside of their school grades.
Though that doesn't usually stop the mocking comments they send at one another here and there, to try and set the other one off. But that was just for fun, nothing harmful is ever said.
Looking to her right, it seemed that Nanoha had calmed Arisa down as the girl was pouting with her arms crossed. To her right, Harry was just smiling as he read his book, clearly knowing that he had won this round.
Sighing lightly to herself, she smiled and shook her head. After two years you learn to get use to it, as she leaned closer to the boy to see what he was reading.
Within the forest outskirts of the city, the area was peaceful and calm. The animals in the woods were calm in their own habitats, as the afternoon breeze was blowing around them. Just like any other normal day.
Though on this day, that piece would be disrupted in the form of a blue jewel.
The jewel was disrupted when it dropped from the bird's nest it was in, landing onto a rock below. Causing it to activate into its first stage, releasing a herd of raw magical energy into the area. Energy that lashed out destroying the wildlife, as well as killing the animals.
The following stage, when the jewel seed is by itself, is to use the released energy and form it together. Within minutes, a temporary body would be created for the jewel.
However, there would be a second disturbance in the forest that day. This one would be helpful to the wildlife.
A boy that was no older than nine had arrived on the scene, looking around at the destruction caused before looking at the jewel.
"I see have time." He stated, as in this stage the jewel was in a defenceless form. Reaching into a small patch on the right side of his waist, the boy pulled out a small ruby sphere.
A gunk-like form was starting to form around the jewel as the boy held the ruby in front of him. Pointing it in the direction of the jewel.
A green circular seal formed in place.
"Ancient Resonance, turn into light!"
The boy began to chant. A green magical circular seal had formed in front of his outstretched hand, the markings on the seal were spinning either clockwise or anticlockwise.
"Put those that are unforgiven inside the ring of sealing!"
Having formed part of the body, the jewel lashed out two of its gunk-like arms like whips. Both clashing against the seal the boy had created. Though the seal was more than strong enough to stop the attack in place.
On the jewel, a serial number appeared.
"Jewel Seed Serial 13, Seal!"
[Sealing.] A computerized voice spoke from the small sphere, as the seal spun faster. It used the two outlasted whip-like arms as wires, sending the sealing spell down them and striking the jewel.
The boy had to keep his concentration and focus hard, allowing the sealing to take control.
Slowly, the gunk dropped from the jewel as the raw magical energy was sealed back into it. The sealing continued to the pointed that the jewel just hovered there in the air, no long active and safe to touch without backlash.
Sighing in relief, the boy walked over to the jewel and held the small sphere out. The jewel was absorbed within it.
[Receipt: No. XIII] The jewel replied, recording the now sealed jewel.
"Thank you, Raising Heart." The boy softly said, as he placed it back into the pouch. Looking up at the sky, he couldn't help but mutter. "One down, twenty more to go."
School was an uneventful, as they handed the required homework in, and passed on like any other day.
Nanoha, Suzuka, and Arisa were his friends. But at school and being a boy, Harry couldn't always hang out with the girls frequently as he would be outside playing sports with the other boys in his class during recess.
Though it didn't mean, he wouldn't sit with them for lunch.
Anyway, just like that the school day had come to an end. Usually, he would catch the school bus on back to the bus stop by the apartment building, but there were days where he would walk home. Those days were when the others weren't busy, or he had to do some grocery shopping.
It was the former today, as the group was walking off in the direction of Harry's godfather's bookshop.
Harry was heading that way since he wanted to see if his Uncle Lupin needed help with anything. Suzuka was following him, because the boy had informed her at lunch that her ordered book had arrived.
Nanoha was heading this direction because her family's café was just down the way from it. As for Arisa…well seeing as her three friends were heading that way, she didn't wish to be left out or behind, and was simply following along.
The only male in the group of four was at the front of the group, once again with his nose in a book. Suzuka and Nanoha was just behind him, as they were talking to one another. Finally, Arisa was bringing up the back with her arms behind her head, bored.
Looking to the front of the group, Arisa moved passed the two girls so she was walking alongside Harry. "Why are you reading the book, again, for?" the curious girl asked.
While it was known that Harry loved to read books, the one present in his hands at the moment was not only English, but it was also a very old fashioned kind of book. In the book it talked about all different kinds of jewels, as well as some minor diagrams that confused her.
What the girls didn't know, was this was a book on the Potter family magic.
Yes before you question, the main one was still back in his apartment, after all that one was charmed to never leave the place. This one was a simple minor book on it, which in turn could be seen as a book about jewels.
"It's to do with my parents business." The boy replied, as it was agreed upon that the family 'business' was to do with jewels.
Taking the book off the boy, she flipped though some of the pages.
Of course, the book was charmed. Should anyone, other than a Potter try and read it, they would see information of how a jewel is cut and formed with jewellery.
"Pretty." Nanoha said, as Arisa had landed on one of the pages.
However, it was charmed in a way that Harry didn't know what they were seeing. So as long as the three never questioned or asked about what they see, he was safe.
It wasn't that long before they were stopping outside the Midori-ya.
They were greeted by Nanoha's mother, Momoko Takamachi, who was cleaning the outside tables at point. From the small talk, it seemed that service was going slow for them today.
It was also here that the group of four had split into two groups of two. Nanoha and Arisa heading on into the café, the former to help out while the latter to get something to eat, while Harry and Suzuka were going to walk on down to the bookshop.
Waving bye, the two walked on down the path in peace.
Out of the three girls, the violet haired one was the one that Harry got along the best with. While Nanoha was his longest friend and he had an amusing rivalry with Arisa. He got along best with Suzuka, mainly due to the fact that they both enjoy the silence, as well as love to read stories from books.
Just a few minutes down from the café, the two were standing outside the front of an old antique bookshop that had been fixed up within the last two years.
Pushing the door open, a small bell on top of the door rung. Doing so caused a cheerful voice to greet them.
"Welcome to Lupin's Books and Tomes, how may we be of service~"
The boy chuckled as he shook his head. "Trying to play the employee again, Hayate?" Harry asked, looking over at the counter to see a girl their age, seated in a wheelchair. "Or are you hoping that my godfather will give you discounts on your favourite books for helping?"
The girl's cheeks pouted out, as she brushed back her brunette hair back.
"Why must you always be mean, Harry." She replied, pushing her wheelchair from behind the counter.
For those who are wondering, this girl is Hayate Yagami.
She's a frequent visitor at the shop, to the point that Remus is considering hiring her due to all the help she does during the weekday when Harry's at school. This being due to the fact that Hayate is home-schooled, because no school in the town has wheelchair access.
She was also Harry's very first friend in this country. Something that she had always been grateful about, since she didn't go to school she didn't really know any kids her own age.
They met when she stumbled across the shop one day.
Due to loving her books, mainly manga and costume designs, she would come back every now and again. It was Remus who introduced the two, they have been friends since as they help out around the shop.
"Is Uncle Remus in his office?" Harry asked. When she nodded her head, he headed on behind the counter, leaving Suzuka to talk to her.
The boy was the one to introduce the two girls sometime last year. Harry had also introduced her to Nanoha or Arisa when they started Cram School, since that building did have wheelchair access. Though out of the three, like himself, Hayate got alone better with Suzuka because of their love with books.
The backroom door opened, before Harry could open it, as Remus walked out with some books in arm. Seeing the two with Hayate, he smiled. "Good day at school, Harry?" he asked, placing the books onto the counter.
"Yes," he replied.
Remus turned his head towards the violet haired girl. "Nice to see you again, Miss. Tsukimura." The old werewolf greeted as he reached under the desk and pulled out a packaged book. "You are here to collect this, correct?"
The girl smiled and nodded, signing the form as she had already paid for the book. "Thank you." She replied, holding it in her arms.
"You're welcome." The man replied a smile on his face. "If you are in need of any other books, please let me know and I will see if I can find them."
What Suzuka was going to say next was cut off by the beeping of her phone, pulling her phone out, she checked the received message. "Ah, I've got to go." She told them putting her phone away. "Thank you again, Mr. Lupin." She said before looking at the other two. "Bye, Hayate. I'll see you in school tomorrow, Harry."
Waving bye, she left the shop. Leaving the three behind, in an empty shop.
Looking around, Harry couldn't help but comment. "Slow day?"
He was met with two nods of agreement and the joined reply of. "Slow day."
Over the next few hours, they went on with storing the books and manning the counter, like normal. This, in itself, turned into a small hustle, as Harry and Hayate had gotten into another stacking contest, one again. The girl taking the first floor, while the boy got the second.
The old werewolf just shook his head with a smile on his face, sitting behind the counter, as he allowed the two kids to tire themselves out with everything they were doing.
As it reached five o'clock that afternoon, Remus decided to close up shop an hour early. After all, the streets looked to be empty and he doubt that they would get any customers now.
"Make sure you reach the apartments before dark, Harry." Remus told the boy, as the man was tasked to make sure that Hayate reached her home safety, again.
Ever since they found out the girl had lost her parents and was living alone, Remus took it upon himself to looking out for her as a guardian-like figure. Which is why Harry believes, this is one of the main reasons that Hayate always came back here.
She always seems to have the shine of joy in her eyes, whenever they were around. Harry would always remember when he let out a small joke saying that Remus should adopt her, then they could be a family.
The girl became embarrassed and played with her fingers, though she never said no to the idea.
Waving bye, Harry walked on the trail back to the apartments. He was glad that there was no homework tonight as he stretched his arms out. Two years since he was brought out here to live, in those two years he has enjoyed himself.
Though…
Stopping in his path, he looked out over the ocean and sighed. He did love it here, good friends, having fun with learning…but, it wasn't the same without his family.
Yes, they would come and visit every now and again. But then watching the leave at the end of the day, while he was left alone in the apartment…it just…felt out of place…
Looking up towards the sky, the boy wishes and hopes every day that his core would fix itself, that he would be able to do magic again. He hated to admit it, but he was jealous of his siblings. Not only could they use magic, but they also had the love of their parents twenty-four seven.
Letting out a quiet sigh, he turned to leave when his eye caught something down on the sand. It sparkled blue in the setting sunlight, making his way down a set of steps, he moved over and picked the item up.
Harry was surprised to see it was a sapphire jewel, having grown up with jewels due to the family magic, he could tell that it was authentic.
The way it was shaped would remind you of one of those jewels you would see in a jewel shop and cost quite a bit.
Looking up and down the stretch of beach, he could see no one in sight.
Biting his lip, he soon decided that he would look after it for now, though should he hear any word of someone looking for it, then the boy would return it to its rightful owner.
However, unknown to the boy, from the years of where the magic had leaked from his core had merged into his body's nerviest system. When Harry touched the jewel with his bare hand, the raw magic was calmed from the soothing magic in the boy's palm. As the mood the boy was in, in this current moment was a calming one.
Looking out over the ocean again, the boy took note that it was starting to get dark. Looking at the blue jewel in his hand, he shook his head as he would worry about it later. It was getting late out and he still had school tomorrow, after all. The boy would place the found jewel in a glass case on the tea table in front of the sofa. There the jewel will remain for a small while.
A hallowed wind blew through the forest, within that wind a faint growl could be heard as the pace and pressure of the wind increased.
Heavy breathing could also be heard as one ran through the trail path. His right hand clenching his left arm as it was cut and bleeding, his sight was becoming blurred as the blood from the small cut on his forehead dripped down into his right eye.
The faint growls could be heard not that far behind him as the creature was giving chase.
He soon reached a clearing, near the edge of the lake. A lake that had a dock setup with paddle and row boats stationed, looking behind him, everything fell silent.
No growl, no wind.
The only thing he could hear was the heavy breathing he, himself, was making as he tried to catch his breath.
Gritting his teeth to try and ignore the pain, he focused on his surroundings.
From it, the wind started to pick up again as the creature drew near. Focusing, he locked into the magic being released from it.
His eyes snapped open, as he dived to the left as said creature had charged him. The boy avoided the attack, as the giant round gunk monster smashed into the docks and boats, destroying them.
Pushing himself to his feet, the boy reached into a small patch on the right side of his waist. From it, he pulled out a small ruby sphere.
The creature had wasted no time as it attacked again.
Holding the ruby in front of him, a green circular seal formed in place.
"Ancient Resonance, turn into light!" he began to chant. "Put those that are unforgiven inside the ring of sealing!" The creature growled as it smacked head-on into the seal. "Jewel Seed, Seal!"
A powerful glow erupted from the seal, as the creature was ensnared.
However, unlike the previous Jewel Seed this one was able to form a body of-sorts, not fully complete one, but a body never the less. That, combined with the blood loss, the seal had found the force against it being fought.
It soon reached the point the seal self-detonated.
The creature was blown back, its body torn to pieces, causing it to pull a retreat for now. But it would be back, back to finish what it started.
The boy, on the other hand, was blown back into the forest as his back slamming against a tree, as the pain and blood loss finally caught up with him. He dropped to his knees as he watched the creature vanished from sight.
"I let it get away…" he muttered weakly, trying to push himself up. "I must go after it…"
But he collapsed to the ground. "Someone…here my voice…" he muttered weakly, unable to move. "Lend me your powers!" His body begun to glow green as the safety measure of his kind took hold. "Magical…powers…"
As the light cleared, a ferret was left behind. Around its neck, a ruby sphere hung.
Her eyes opening, the blue eyed girl looked to see that the morning sun had risen.
She was slightly surprised that she had woken before her phone alarm. Sitting up in her bed, she couldn't help but blink at the dream she just had. A part of her wondering who that boy was, as well as what that creature was as well.
However, any thoughts she had was cleared from her mind as not only did her phone alarm go off, but a knock on her bedroom door.
"Nanoha, can you come and help with breakfast, please." The girl's mother asked on the other side of the door.
Rubbing her eyes, the girl replied. "Hai, I'll just get cleaned up." Climbing out of her bed, grabbing her uniform and heading to the bathroom to get ready for a new day. The dream, while not forgotten, was at the back of her thoughts at this current moment.
Chapter End.
Everyone has now been introduced, the Jewel Seeds have been released. The Jewel Seed arc, has now begun.
Okay now with the pairings, which will not happen until their teens, I am clearly going to say Harry x [Lyrical Nanoha female, his age]. As for who, I am not sure yet.
Hayate isn't an option, as she's going to be more of the older/little sister with Harry. Leaving Nanoha, Fate, Suzuka, and Arisa…plus I want to do a pairing that hasn't been done before, let me know your thoughts on who and why.
Next Chapter: A surprise encounter with the group of friends as they find a small injured ferret. But more surprising revelations are caused, as the creature is back to finish what it started. Followed by the activation of a second Jewel.
Please tell me what you think. I would like to know.
