Thanks for your reviews. I can't believe I got reviews for this chapter, though I'm a bit surprised no one's caught the pun in the title yet. Then again, it's not really obvious.
Anywho, a funny little thing happened while on vacation. Why don'tcha introduce yourself sis?
Okay. Hi everyone. I'm Saunya, Zdisslava's identical twin. As you can guess, we look alike, and in case you're wondering, share the same views and many tastes even though I grew up in a regular orphanage rather than with Zdisslava.
Our taste's similarities are obvious since we have the same kinda car. Even modified them the same.
I still want to race ya some time.
Me too. I still find it weird we got married on the same day.
Yeah. Anyway me and my wife, Sarah, are moving in with Sis and Tawnya, so you might hear from us from time to time. Back to ya Sis.
Thanks Sis. Anyway, in other news, I've started a new Harry Potter crossover section called 'The Power He Knows Not.' It's a series of oneshot previews of my Harry Potter crossover ideas, where Harry is replaced with various superpowered heroines. Each is set during the climax of Chamber if Secrets, after Voldermorte asks "what is the Power that you possess, that you were left with nothing but a scar, whilst Voldemorte's powers were destroyed?", after which they proceed to kick his ass.
Lastly, here's the next chapter of Caeli Potter, Vampire Keeper.
Saunya: Is this the story where the main character is a...
Hey! Spoiler Alert! Are you going to do that every time?
Saunya: I've got nineteen years of being the 'annoying younger sister' to make up for.
Well, at least I caught ya this time.
Anyway, just a bit of warning, this chapter starts out sensual, and contains something that could be a bit disturbing. Nothing too graphic, but there's a reason I put this under M.
Ready to help start Sis?
Saunya: Take it away Sis.
Whelp, That said...
Saunya: As always,
Both: Enjoy!

The next day, Sky awoke in the same position she had for the passed year: Her head against her girlfriend's- no, wife and bonded, Sky remembered- bare, large breasts, her butt against Hady's crotch, Hady's right hand stretched across her chest to rest against her own left breast over her heart...And Hady's left pointer finger in her, technically, empty eye socket.
Sky sighed lightly, feeling Hady's finger digging against the hard bone of her socket. Feeling the digit moving around in her, mostly, empty eyefolds had been a bit weird at first when Hady first did it about a year ago, but the apparently one eyed girl had gotten used to it. Unlike as it appeared, her eye was still there, but had changed to something completely different, and could not be seen or felt normally, which was a good thing too because of Hady's odd habit of putting her finger in there.
Sky smiled, basking in the warmth of her wife's naked form; then, not wanting to wake up her wife, she concentrated, and a familiar, light feeling entered her as her body turned wispy, almost like fog as she converted her body into air particles. Sky drifted upwards, lifting herself off her new wife before turning to the side to stand at the side of the bed.
Turning solid again, Sky stretched, one hand behind her head while the other reached upwards towards the ceiling as her back arched, showing off her naked, pale torso quite nicely. She repeated the maneuver with her other arm, then looked over the room. The room was quite dark, but that didn't hinder her eyes, one visible, one not, from picking out the room's details with the vision afforded to her as a Keeper, her parental heritage, and the fact that her left eye was technically gone, replaced with one from the other half of her heritage.
The room was quite large, a good 30x50 feet, with a nine foot ceiling, and predominately yellow, trimmed in black and white.
The four poster bed that the four teens shared lay in the center of the room against the wall opposite the door. The single bed was a rather large 10X15 foot four poster with yellow curtains, dark grey sheets, and a yellow comforter with black trim.
Looking over the bed, Sky's smiling gaze rested a moment on Ro and Deed, who Sky could tell, were in a similar position to what she and Hady had been, though with Deed on top of Ro.
Not for the first time, Sky had to chuckle at the thought of the two married sisters. The two were such complete opposites- Deed the sarcastic, brash street urchin as fiery and stubborn as the fire and earth powers she liked to use, and Ro the prim and proper noble raised, cool as ice; even their powers, now their main powers since bonding with Sky the year before had granted them access to the rest of the elements, were complete opposites, and yet they still loved each other enough to bond.
Sky shook her head at the two sisters, and continued looking over the room. In addition to the bed, there where several overstuffed arm chairs and a couple of couches sprinkled liberally throughout the room. There was also four, five drawer chests along the wall to the right of the bed, two on either side of a round door that she knew led to a bathroom.
Quickly, Sky stepped through the heavy oak door into the spacious lavatory.
Raising her hands in front of her, palms facing upward, as she closed her eyes, Sky began her awakening ritual.
["Wind, Breath of Life, Bringer of the Swirling Vortex, guide me on my path."] As she spoke the Alahriyan Vampire Keeper ritual, a light breeze stirred around her, her waist length, white and black hair billowing slightly. A slight twinge in both of her eye sockets told her that her right one had changed, while her left was visible again, but only for herself and her wives, and not even fully there yet. ["Water, Source of Life, Bringer of the Raging Torrent, grant me my health."] A simmering wave of water colessed around her, refracting the light into multiple rainbows. ["Shadow,"] she said softly, ["The Deceiver, Bringer of Darkness, protect my secrets."] A black glow flared to life around her hand, a swirling black void that seemed to suck in all light. ["Light, the Revealer, Bringer of All that is Holy, protect me from myself."] A white light shimmered to life, not against the darkness, but in harmony. Sky then moved on to her second strongest, and favorite, element, tapping her foot against the floor as she said, ["Earth, the Protector, Bringer of Earthquakes, protect my family."] A stone pillar rose from the stone floor to encase the Last of the Vampire Keepers and the Elements that surrounded her. Sky moved on to the last of her Elements. ["Fire, Source of the Underverse, Bringer of Destruction, continue in my service."] Bright, blueish white flame with black edges surrounded the Earth barrier. Eyes still closed, Sky raised her hands high above her head in a pleading gesture. ["Oh Elements, the Six Sources of the Universe, grant me thy Power!"]
The Elements dissipated in a flash of crimson light, leaving Sky clad in the black mail and white fabric ruby, emerald, diamond, sapphire, amber, and onyx studded shirt, four inch black droco leather ruffled skirt, and black droco leather ankle boots modeled after the combat boots that she remembered her mother wearing.
Sky smiled lightly as she opened her eyes after the slight twinge told her that they had returned to normal. 'Even after 11 years that ritual gives me a rush.' She fingered the soft leathery fabric of her skirt. It was soft and supple like silk, but she had found it could turn a steel blade; even a diamond blade blunted against it.
Still smiling lightly, Sky quickly checked her inner clock, the part of her connected to the movements of the heavens during the night, an ability which all for of the Queens shared. Finding it to be about an half an hour before sunrise, she returned to the bedroom.
As she did so, Hady sat up, arm stretching upward as she yawned. Sky's eyes were immediately drawn to Hady's bobbing breasts for a moment before Hady swept her up into a hug.
Sky gave her main wife a deep, heated kiss for a moment before a cough behind them drew them apart.
"Morning you two," Sky said brightly to the two sisters as they sat up, the pale gold sheet falling to expose their naked torsos. "Have a nice night?" she asked, though the sticky, salty scent coupled with the copper of blood in her sensitive nose and the matching taste on her tongue told her volumes.
"You know we did," Deed said.
Ro gave a slight sniff, immediately smelling what Sky had on the air, courtesy of her air abilities. "So did you two."
Sky grinned. "Just think, you'll get this tonight," she chirped brightly, gesturing to herself. Even though Deed and Ro were married to each other, they were also married to Sky and Hady, an arrangement that Sky was glad that Alahriya supported, though she idly wondered what the wizards on Earth would think, having never heard about it in the five years she'd been on Earth; and while Sky had been born on Earth, she had been raised on Alahriya.
The two girls chuckled as they gave the black and white haired Keeper and Night Queen a kiss.
A sharp crack drew them apart, the four turning, elements in the sister's hands while Sky held a foot in the air to summon a set of her favorite Earth Spikes, only to see a small, ragged gray creature with protuberant yellow lamp-like eyes, ears like dragon wings, a ball shaped head with a sharply pointed chin and an equally sharp two inch long hooked nose, and wearing a toga with the Hogwarts Crest in the center of it's chest, clutching a letter.
It was a testament to the bravery of the creature when it did not react to the obvious display of lethal power beyond a slight trembling.
Sensing no ill intent, the Four Queens quickly dispersed their various elements.
"We really need to relax our reflexes," Sky thought through the bond the four shared, "We're too paranoid."
"You do know it's saved us more than a few times," Deed reminded her through the mental link.
"And it's not paranoia if they're out to kill you," Ro said, "It's one of the first things the Darok One taught me."
The others mentally winced slightly at that reminder of Ro's past.
"At least we didn't fry or freeze the poor thing," Hady said quickly to change the subject.
Not giving any hint to the psychic conversation, Sky spoke aloud. "Sorry about that," she said kindly, "We're not quite used to surprises yet."
"You did nothing Madam Potter," the creature said excitedly, "Dobby should not have entered like that."
Sky's vacant eye twitched at the Potter name, but mentally reminded herself that the thing hadn't heard. Instead she said, "Call me Sky. Is Dobby your name?"
The little thing's head excitedly bobbed up and down so fast, it was a wonder it didn't get whiplash.
"Yes! Yes!" he said excitedly, "I's Dobby the house elf!"
"Why are you here," Ro asked in the haughty tone that the Darok One had taught her to use to set herself above others, folding her arms under her chest; the gesture pushed her bare breasts up, making them appear larger.
The house elf was unaffected by the sensual display. "Teacher Sprout asked me to tell you to meet her in greenhouse 8 when you woke."
The four nodded. "We'll be down as soon as we get dressed," Ro informed him.
Nodding, Dobby, said exuberantly, "Dobby will tell her right away!" and vanished with a crack, leaving behind a very bemused quartet.
"Excitable fellow isn't he," Hady said, wrapping her arms around Sky, her bare breasts pushing into the smaller girl's shoulders.
"Yes, and you three should get dressed," Sky told her, looking upward at Hady.
Hady kissed her main wife on the head, before letting go and standing aside. As one, the triplets snapped their fingers. There was a brief flash of light, and their clothes from the previous day appeared. Their white, gem studded tops were tight, digging slightly in their 36LL cup breasts.
"Looking good as ever," Sky said, bringing the three into a group kiss. "Don't forget the Shadow," she reminded them as they pulled away.
"Do we have ta," Deed whined.
"It's the law," Ro said, whacking her fellow limehead upside the head, eliciting an "Oi!", from her main wife.
"Stupid law," Deed muttered as she rubbed the back of her head.
Ro whacked her again. "Play nice De," she admonished, "The girls here aren't like the one's at home."
"That's definitely true," Sky told the medic scanner as she waved a hand in front of her skirt, bathing her nether regions in shadow, "And it's not like you can't see through it anyway."
Deed grinned. "True," she chirped.
Sky shook her head at her as the one eyed girl tapped her foot, sending out sonar waves beneath her. Shifting through the echoes, she soon came across seven places that carried a lot of Earth magic. One had a portly woman, her dense footfalls, leading credence to her size bustling about.
"Found her," Sky said, waving a hand excitedly, "Come on, follow me."
She skipped away, followed by three amused triplets.
As they walked trough the corridors, they noticed the moving paintings.
"Do you remember any of this Sky," Hady asked her wife.
"A little," Sky replied as they reached the main hall, "I've never been here, but our house had them." There was a rumbling noise. All eyes turned above them to see a staircase moving.
Sky blinked. "That's new. Must be fun to run down." The perpetual eight year old ran for them.
Hady scooped the smaller girl up in here arms before she could get away. "None of that girl," she said.
Sky pouted, but Hady wiped it off with a kiss. "Ya good?"
Sky nodded, leaning her head against Hady's barely covered breast, feeling the warmth of its bare skin.
"Yeah. Damn body memory. I know I'm sixteen, but my body's reactions sometimes get me." She shrugged, "Still nice though."
"Speaking of age," Ro said as the foursome stepped out into the crisp morning air, she and Deed flanking the two; It was chilly, and while they felt it, being Alahriyan girls it didn't bother them, "are going to tell the main difference between our year and theirs?"
Sky looked at her. "What? That even though our day extends throughout the year, that our year still consists of 365 days? That you're roughly 5,700 years old in their time?" She raised an eyebrow. "How do you think they'll respond to that?"
Ro nodded as they reached opaque, glass buildings. "Yeah, stupid question."
"You can put me down Hady," Sky told her carrier, "I think I've got a handle on it again."
"Only til next time," Hady remarked but allowed the childlike girl to slide from her grip.
The Keeper led them into the building marked with a 7 above the door frame. They went through the doorway to emerge into a dense jungle of exotic plants.
"Professor," Sky called out.
"Over here girls," came a matronly reply, "Watch out for the Venomous Tentactula!"
"The what," Deed asked, only to get a reply in the form of a thorny vine wrapping around her wrist. The thorns failed to penetrate the Fire and Earth user's skin, not that it could any of the girls'; hard skin was genetic trait among Alahriyans women, though the degree varied between the common, and royal blood, just as the strength of the various elements did.
Another vine snaked around Sky's wrist.
"Oh how cute," the former street girl and the strongest of the Keepers squealed in delight, causing the other two green haired girls to shake their heads in amusement as the two Earth witches stroked the vines. The plant limbs rustled in such a way that it could only be described as a purr.
"They are, aren't they," a matronly voice said.
The four Alahriyans turned to see a short, portly woman in brown, dirt stained robes, a tall pointed hat that sat atop a head of stringy black shoulder length hair, and pink fluffy earmuffs around her neck.
"I've never seen Cleopatra take to one that fast," the professor continued, "Not since Alice and Morticia."
Sky grinned. "Deed and I wield the Earth Element. All in girls in Alahriya can use an Element, though it varys in strength." She chose not to mention that only the royal family, or a Keeper, could use more than one Element.
"Ro and I can use it too, but we just use our favorites," Hady put in.
"What elements?" the woman asked.
"Please forgive us," Ro stated, "but we do not know you well enough to divulge that information."
The woman smiled kindly, " Ah, yes, I'm Professor Sprout, Head of Hufflepuff. I'm also the Herbology teacher, and your guide today."
"Just the basics," Sky said through the four's link rather than her actual telepathy, "She would have seen your little display yesterday, so it'll be fine."
"Pleased to meetcha," Deed chirped, waving the hand that wasn't occupied with stroking dangerous plants. "I'm Deed, former thief and master of Earth and Fire."
"Likewise," Sprout said with a smile, "And just as long as you don't steal anything I won't hold it against you."
"Fat chance of that," Ro said, the more common idiom coming from the purebloodlike girl surprising the professor, "I am Ro. I use Water and Air, and am the resident healer. My specialty is Ice. I am also the main mate of this idiot," she indicated Deed with a thumb, causing the green and brown eyed girl to pout.
"Butcha love me anyway," Deed pointed out.
"Got that right," her sister said, giving Deed a peck on the check.
"What do you mean by main mate," Sprout asked.
"The four of us are married to each other," Sky explained, "and can have sex with each other."
"But each of us has a main wife," Hady continued, "That is, one that takes first position, and in other cases, is in charge of the other spouses. Since we're equal, that doesn't apply to us."
The professor nodded. "I see. That makes sense. Same way here actually."
Star raised her left eyebrow, which looked odd considering there was no visible eye. "I'm surprised you didn't comment on the incest."
The professor shook her head. "I'm head of the House of Loyalty for a reason," the matron stated, "besides, Magical society allows for it, and for purebloods, it's expected."
Hady looked at the professor while playing with a vine. "Cool! Glad to see Earth isn't completely backwards.
"Hady is my name," she chirped with a broad grin and a light wave, "Light and Shadow is my game."
Sprout smiled. "That would explain why poor Mable is confused," she said, indicating the Devil's Snare that reaching for Hady only to shy away, it various vines shaking in confusion.
"And now me," Sky said cheerfully, "You know me as Caeli Potter, but in Alahriya I'm Sky. As a Vampire Keeper I wield all Seven of the Elements unlike these weaklings," she added, pointing a thumb at the others.
"Hey," Hady protested, "It's only been a year since bonding with you."
Sky raised her scarred white eyebrow over her seemingly empty socket. "Your point?"
"Seven Elements," Sprout asked, "I've only heard of six so far."
Sky look her in the eye. "And pray that you do not ever hear of the Seventh. Not only is it a State Secret, but it's not something I like to talk about either. Just know that if I use it...well, it won't be pretty."
Sprout nodded. "Very well."
"Now," Ro said, changing the subject, "What kind of supplies are we going to get and where are we getting them?"
"Well, you'll be just starting, so most definitely the first year books and equipment- scales, potion ingredients, quills, ink and parchment. As you go you can check out the more advanced texts from the library if you don't mind sharing."
The four shook their heads. "We have photographic memory," Sky informed her, "So once we read what spells there are we'll mostly just need practice."
Sprout smiled. "That'll make it much easier for you to catch up then. Anyway, well be getting some uniforms for you..." At the four's tense look she added, "Yes, Dumbledore's told us about your aversion to undergarments, so they'll have hiding spells."
Deed looked rather pleased at that, having what could only be described as 'perverted' grin plastered across her face; one that was whipped off by another strike to the head, this time by both her sisters, eliciting another complaint by the former street urchin.
Deciding to just go with it, Sprout shook her head in amusement. "Anyway," she continued, "We'll also be getting some everyday clothes, dress robes for the Yule Ball-"
"Great, more dancing," Ro complained, causing Sprout to look at her oddly.
"Just ignore her," Sky said, "Bad experiences growing up."
Sprout nodded before looking at the green haired teen. "If you ever need a friendly ear."
"I think about it," the other three's former enemy said with a nod.
Knowing that that was the best she would get Sprout nodded again with a kind smile. "Yes. Well, where was I..." a look of comprehension crossed her face as she continued, "Oh yes, an eyepatch..."
"No." Sky's sudden cold whisper gave the matron pause, and she couldn't help but gulp slightly as she noticed that Sky's single light violet eye had darkened to purple, the white of her eye gaining a pink tinge... and was it her imagination or did the red folds of flesh of her empty eye socket seem redder than before? "I apologize," the matron said, holding up her hands in surrender, "I assume it's an Alahriyan custom?"
At that, the diminutive Keeper's eye softened, the color returning back to light violet. "No, I'm sorry; I forgot we aren't in Alahriya.
"Yes, as a matter of fact, it is. Scars mean something, especially for Alahriyan women.
"You see, it's not easy to hurt a girl from Alahriya, even the low powered ones could tank a cutting spell. It usually takes another girl of near-equal or greater strength to harm one. And even so, usually we can heal without scars. Those that do choose to scar and show it means that they aren't unashamed about it, like the one on Hady's left cheek."
Hady's face reddened, "Sky!"
"Asking a girl to cover their scar, is like asking someone to cover their face because you don't want to look at them."
Sprout could only wince at her unintentional faux paux.
Sky shook her head at that, waving a hand dismissively. "No need to apologize for something you did not know. So, anyway, where are we going to get this stuff?"
"Diagone Alley," the matron replied.
