AN: Hi. Took a break to reset the time I have to wait until to post another chapter! So, time to get writing. I've got a… Basic idea of what to do with this… Much shorter chapter this time.

Potter opened his eyes, trying to figure out where he was and what was happening…

The previous day

Harry had helped to explain the events to the professors when they finally arrived, even showing her memory in some kind of bowl.

McGonagall apologised to Potter, before returning half of the points, explaining that the other ten points would be for disturbing everyone with however he had shouted so loudly, which Potter accepted easily.

Later

Baku walked over to Potter, grabbing his arm and dragging him off to the Quidditch pitch, where Caleb was waiting with a large bag over his shoulder.

"What are you doing?" Potter asked, trying to get his arm free.

"We're going to show you something." Baku responded, as Caleb pulled out a heavy looking box, opening it to reveal what looked like a large assortment of weapons.

Caleb passed Baku a pair of sickles which he spun around and took a few slashes of the air with, getting used to the weight and size. He then turned to Potter, "take a weapon or two." He told him, cracking his knuckles with a grin.

Potter looked through the box for a few minutes, looking at different weapons, before settling on a broadsword, which he swung through the air easily with one hand, finding the grip to be uncomfortable, the blade too heavy… But the type was right. "Have we got any more of these?" He asked, putting the blade to the side.

"Let me check." Caleb muttered, sorting through the box. "No, why?" He answered, turning to Potter curiously.

"It's wrong, but right…" He muttered.

Baku exchanged a glance with Caleb, clearly wondering something. "Mind trying something for me?" He asked, idly twisting his sickles between his fingers.

"Sure." He agreed, before Baku turned to Caleb's bag, pulling out a sketchpad.

"Draw a sword, one that you think would have the right grip and weight." Baku told him, as he started drawing, adding in details he was thinking of for some reason, after a few minutes he passed it back to Baku, who looked at it.

It was a detailed drawing of a blade, with the cross-guard in the shape of a wolf, the blade coming out of the wolf's mouth, the hilt had a certain shape to it, which meant that even though the blade was pointed on both sides, it would need to be held a certain way.

"Alright, a bit more detail than I expected but I can make it work." Baku said, as Alfie appeared out of nowhere. "Right on time. Where were you this time?" Baku asked, un-phased by the sudden appearance.

"T-The s-stands…" He mumbled quietly, taking a large piece of metal in his hands, and focusing, slowly the metal started morphing into the drawn blade, until it was finally done. "C-Caleb?" Alfie called, holding the blade out.

Caleb held his hand out, as it seemed to emit heat, which slowly warmed the blade, after a few moments Alfie passed it to Potter, before doing a vanishing act and disappearing in front of him.

"Where did…?" Potter asked confused, holding the blade in his hands.

"Honestly, nobody knows. It's not his Zodiac that's doing it… He just… Well. He's really good at doing a vanishing act. He always follows physics, it just doesn't seem like it at first." Baku explained with a shrug. "Now, try that sword out." He told Potter, who took a test swing, finding it perfect.

"It's perfect." He muttered, finding the handle warm to the touch, but in a good way. "How did he do it?" He asked curiously.

"Classical elements. Y'know, Fire, Air, Earth and Water. We have a connection to them, with some of us having much stronger connections. For example… Diana and Caleb both have connection to fire through the classical element things. But Caleb is much more in tune with it, plus, his thing is Flames of Leo, making his connection even stronger… On the other hand, Eclipse has a very weak connection to his air element, since he only truly became connected to it when he gave up Ophiuchus. Twilight is a little better but not by much." Baku explained. "Alfie's element specifically is Earth and cold. So Caleb needed to heat the metal up so it wouldn't shatter." He added. "Anyway, enough of that." He said, getting into a combat stance. "Let's have a little practice fight." He told Potter. "I already cast a spell to prevent serious injury, so don't worry." He promised, seeing the worried look.

"After you go against Baku, you'll go up against me." Caleb added, taking the box and old sword away, and sitting a while away to watch them.

Baku grinned at Potter, before he ran at him, swinging one of his sickles at him.

Potter blocked it with his sword, twisting it out of Baku's hand and knocking to the floor, he then dodged a swipe from the other sickle, which gave Baku the chance to reclaim his weapon…

Somewhere else.

DeeDee sat in a room somewhere with Harry, as they read a letter. "This is bad…" DeeDee muttered.

"Yeah, although it explains why Kira made that pendant for him." Harry agreed, biting her lip nervously.

"What do we do? Baku and Caleb are already training him, so we can't just avoid him… Plus, we're his friends!" DeeDee asked in frustration.

"What if ya just ignore the problem for now?" A voice with a strong American accent said, as the two girls turned to see Alfie sitting nearby.

"Oh, it's just you…" Harry muttered, clutching her chest as her heart calmed down.

"Jeez, a little warning next time Ellie?" DeeDee complained.

"My name's Dani! Or Danielle, not Ellie…" He sulked, his voice not fitting his body.

"Well we already have a Dani! So you're Ellie!" DeeDee explained.

"But… Ugh, just don't… We'll think of something eventually." He muttered. "Anyway, why does it matter? Alfie doesn't think the guys dangerous, as long as we don't try to hurt him." He said, grinning.

"Y-Yeah…" He muttered, his voice returning to normal.

"Hmm… What about…?" Harry pondered, having an idea…

Somewhere else

Eclipse walked through the forbidden forest quietly, thinking to himself.

"You know, your face is going to freeze if you keep looking so depressed." Alice's voice said from out of nowhere, startling the scarred boy.

"It's just you…" He muttered, as he turned to see the girl leaning against a tree. "What is it?" He asked, not in the mood for talking.

"Twilight told me about that nightmare." She said, shocking him.

"Y-You know?!" He asked, taking a step back.

"Yeah, you know that you can't become Ophiuchus anymore right? You didn't bond to it, which is how I got it, now it's locked to me so… You can never become that person again." She told him.

"I know, but that's not true…" He muttered, appearing behind Alice. "I can still tap into it… A little at least. The link is still there." He told her, a worried look in his eyes.

Alice sighed, grabbing his chin and moving his face to look her in the eyes. "Listen to me. You, are not Ophiuchus. You, are Eclipse Gaia Vandom, who is also half of Gemini. Your zodiac, does not define you. You, define you." She told him, getting very close to his face, as he tried to move it away. "Understand?" She asked, a fierce look in her eyes.

"But-" Eclipse tried to say.

"No buts or I'll kick yours!" Alice cut him off. "Do you, understand?" She asked again.

"… I understand…" He agreed reluctantly, "I just… I worry, alright? I just shrugged of a dark power with nothing but sheer will and a neutral aura, what if it's still there? What if it's corrupting me?" He explained, sounding worried.

"If it is, then it'll corrupt me as well, but it's not. I'm fine, so you'll be fine as well, ok?" She told him, getting a nod. "Good." She let go of his chin, but didn't leave. "And if you ever worry about it again, or have one of those nightmares, just come find me, ok?" She added, getting another nod. She then proceeded to walk off, making sure to keep an eye on him for the next few days…

With Potter

Potter grinned, currently going against both Baku and Caleb at the same time, before something hit him in the head, hard.

Next day

Potter opened his eyes, trying to figure out where he was and what was happening… And then he remembered. "Oh my head…" He muttered, getting his bearings as he put his glasses on…

"You're awake!" Came a cheer, as he was smothered by DeeDee's assets once more…
