水鏡子的女教士
Priestess of the Water Mirror
IMPORTANT NOTICE MUST READ TO UNDERSTAND THIS CHAPTER!
Now if you skip this little section you might be confused. This chapter takes place in the far off past, 1975 Hogwarts. James Potter is 15 years old along with the other Marauders and Lily being born in 1960 except for Remus and Snape who were born in 1959 who are 16.
Lucius Malfoy is born June 6, 1956 (so it would be 6-6-56 I think that's funny.) So he would be 19 in this part of the story.
Though I tweaked Narcissa and Andromeda's birth year to be 1959 like Snape instead of 1955 and since I have not been able to find the day and month of their birth I have made one up. So their birthday is September 7, 1959 (7-7-59) if I assume correctly from what I have heard that they are twins and if they aren't...then they are in this story.
The reason the story has gone all the way back into the Marauders timeline is significant to Pansy's role in the story along with the Clone Syaoran and Kujaku who is the Black family's true progenitor (as stated in the previous chapter.)
If you notice the previous chapters titles were in Korean and now it is in Chinese-it differentiates the timeline. Harry's chapter titles were in Korean and now Marauders chapters are in Chinese. Later for the 'other clone' the chapter titles will be in Japanese...though that will come much later.
And to clarify there is very slight shonen-ai in the Marauder chapters though it is only between Sirius and Remus. Think of it as a Riff and Cain sort of bond. You cannot really clarify if they 'are' or 'aren't'. Why? Because I want to appeal to every point of an audience, the pairing is vastly popular and because I find it highly possible that they could have had this 'sort' of bond. If it isn't something you agree on then you are permitted to leave the page though I've kept it as light as possible.
Warning: There is graphic violence, implied sexual themes and graphic removal of ones... (can't elaborate but it isn't that...I'm not a pervert people. I can't say what it is because it will ruin the story.)
Alternate Universe card has been thrown...your move!

The rain fell in fat drops from above though Sirius didn't seem to mind as he lay on his back in the messy marsh. Grass tickled at his sides, his white button down was opened showing the expansion of his muscled chest as he sighed lovingly. Heaven cried above him, the sky was the most profound shade of gray and the first glittering of stars were just beginning to shine as the sun had all but already disappeared beneath the mountain tops.
Where was he now? He didn't know, he had merely allowed other self to take him there on its black wings soaring high above what was possible even on a broom. Why had other self brought him there though, that was the appropriate question but there was no answer from inside of him merely quiet nothing and the rain.
His blue gray eyes grew heavy as he fought sleep. Where was he?
He sat up slowly, taking his surroundings the green marsh, the peeking of mountains behind him the end of the cliff that the marsh was on. He stood slowly allowing the dizziness to fade after a long flight walked over towards the cliff's edge gazing at the pristine expansion of clean ocean water waves and beautiful rolling tide.
"Ah so you've brought me here." He said to other self who said nothing back. "Hachijo Island. The island of the maidens." He said softly. He remembered being here now once when he was a small boy having first met other self with Cissa. They'd both been taken on those black wings to this place he remembered the feel of the cold wind hitting his face, the feel of Cissa's hand holding his.
He walked, barefoot, towards the way he'd come. There was a path not far and he decided that before he would leave that he would have a long walk as far as he could go. He wondered if the old fisherman still lived in his little hut but thought against going to look for it.
Instead he walked along the beach for a very long time dwelling on the change his life had taken. He had friends and presumably a good new family. With James there was little time to dwell on the harshness of reality. But he was thrown away, forgotten and hated by everyone he had previously loved.
Cissa, oh Cissa wasn't she always there for him?
His hands fisted then loosened. He couldn't begrudge her any more she could begrudge him of the choices they had made. Before school had started for either of them, for the three of them rather, he, Cissa, Andy had always been together.
Hadn't the sisters seen other self and had been with him when ever other self wanted to go other places? To fly?
He stopped at the beach and let the waves gently lull him into peace, the water licking coolly at his bared feet. He granted himself this little bit of paradise at least and wished suddenly that Remus were with him. Remus would love this sight would be dazzled by the ocean.
"Remus..." He said to himself before his attention was caught in the ocean or rather what was in the ocean. A mirror glittered from the now bright moonlight light twilight.
'Go get it Siri.' Other self said and Sirius didn't think twice before diving into the ocean towards it, fighting the harsh current for his prize he dove deeper then what was humanly possible.
Against the seaweed was a round flat mirror with carved characters and runes. He took it into his hands feeling odd pulsating warmth. It was carved of emerald the shade of...
'Bingo, Siri-Lily Evans eyes.' Other self said extracting his wings and pushing up from the bottom of the ocean floor with Sirius flying high above the water above the clouds and taking him back to his school. Back to the Last seal
"Why won't she go out with me?" James Potter slouched against the table his hair nearly falling into Remus' eggs if the older boy hadn't had intuition to move the plate. James had been rejected again, coldly this time and had sought counsel from his one remaining kind friend.
"Do you want the short version or the long one?" Remus asked sipping his tea.
"Short, please."
"You're too foolhardy James, too reckless and not to mention you torment her best friend."
"I do not torment," James said slightly aghast. "I merely point out the obvious weaknesses of another person so that they may better themselves in the future. I am not jealous."
"I never said you were." Remus said incredulous thought albeit amused.
"Well you were thinking it."
The great hall doors opened and James groaned to Remus' delight as Lily Evans walked in with Severus Snape. They didn't touch there was nothing to indicate that they were more then friends but the presence around them suggested that there was something there.
"Well looks like Lily cleaned him up. His hair is less greasy and his clothes actually fit. Looks a bit mysterious, I hear girls like that."
"Whatever," James said ignoring the whispers amongst the girls over the newly improved Snape. "He'll always be Snivillus to me."
From behind the newly improved Slytherin Sirius came in with the usual grace of a person who thinks too highly of themselves. His uniform was haphazardly thrown on, the buttons of his shirt were half undone showing some of his chest, his tie wasn't done up, his robes were opened and his black slacks were wrinkled.
And still the girls of all houses giggle and swooned and the boys scowled.
In James and Remus case they groaned while an 'until now' quietly eating Peter sighed in admiration and awkwardness.
"Hullo all, have a great morning?"
"Why yes, I suppose," Remus began as Sirius took his usual seat next to him. He heaved slightly as Sirius swung a protective arm around him. "Aren't you awake a bit early?"
"Am I?" Sirius asked between bites of Remus eggs. "And here I thought I was fashionably late. Well can't break tradition can we?" He asked trying to stand but Remus had a good grip on his shirt and hefted him back to his seat.
"You will not be late to your classes again. Sit." He said though it didn't look threatening at all.
"...Uh...ok..." Sirius said with a slight flush. Remus was, unfortunately far too dainty and pretty to be any bit of menacing with his light brown hair framing his soft round face and his making his deep brown eyes shimmer like caramel. Often times the rest of the Marauders had to beat off Remus admirers...which for some unfathomable reason were mostly male.
Remus had no idea though which made him all the more annoying to James and Peter and adorable to Sirius.
Makes you wonder, James thought as he stared at the stern pretty Remus who was dwarfed in comparison to tall whining Sirius, if they are actually a couple.
"But I'm actually really tired Rem! Can't you see the bags under my eyes?" Sirius whined as he bat his eyes foolishly.
"What are you a woman? Quiet down and eat. Your own food Sirius or I swear to all that is holy, if you touch my food again I will kill you!"
"But Rem!"
"But nothing!"
Peter nibbled thoughtfully on a piece of toast, leaning over slightly so that he could talk to James who sat fascinated watching the 'couple' argue again. "They're like a married couple."
"Maybe it's a ruse."
"Maybe to Remus but I think Sirius is serious."
"Good one." James snickered at the joke and patted Peter on the shoulder.
"I try."
After about ten minutes of Remus hitting Sirius in the head with a rolled up issue of the prophet for trying to steal his food, James yet again brought the attention of Lily rejecting him for the second time.
"I think she's just confused, mate. I mean, look at you! Any girl would be happy to be in her shoes. What about pretty Marry Weather Dobson. She's tall, golden haired and athletic. So what if she's Hufflepuff? She likes you."
"She's dating Amos Diggory."
"Isn't he a little old for her?"
"That's the appeal isn't it?" Peter asked only receiving a shrug.
"Well the point is," James said with a huff. "she seems to have a thing for Snivillus."
"What?" Sirius asked taken aback. He looked at the newly formed Severus Snape with open confusion before turning back to his friend. "He wishes! They're only friends far as I know."
But Peter, who was observing from his seat, could see Snap whisper a little too closely into Lily's ear making the red head giggle and a flush spread across Snape's face. He chanced a look at James and shrugged.
"They look a little cozy to me." He said. James groaned, Remus patted his head and Sirius scowled. "What I say?"
"Something stupid Peter. Very stupid." Sirius barked but if was only half menacing. Sure he'd noticed that Lily had been close to Snape and sure it could be said that the snake liked her a little more then friendly. But to actually affirm that there was something going on between them in front of James who seemed to be completely oblivious to it all was plain mean.
But he understood. Peter simply was tired of covering for the sake of James feelings that would later crumble when he finally saw for himself or worse...was invited to a wedding.
"Forget her then," Sirius said. "I know someone who tons better!"
"Really? Better then Evans?"
The tone was different Remus noted with slight suspicion. Were his eyes purple?
"Oh yes, Hero-Papa." Sirius said with a bright smile. "But she lives quite a bit away but...there's a way to talk to her. Come by the dorms after class. I'll see you then." He stood and strolled out of the great hall.
Remus noted that from his perch Dumbledore's eyes twinkled just a bit more brightly...but if it were because of apprehension or amusement he did not know.
"But will it hold? I need this to go well I need him to trust me."
"Don't worry." Purple eyes glittered staring at the imploring pretty face in the mirror. "It was pre ordained that this was to happen that the future be set. After all, you could have told Hero what I told him none of the messiness would have happened. I would make this a lot easier without having to further involve Hero-Papa any more then we should have."
"Kujaku..."
"Do you know where he is now?"
Pansy seemed to sigh sadly and shook her head. She didn't really now but from the little information from Yuko she knew that he was safe though not necessarily sane.
"I heard that he was in Nihon. I still don't see how he was able to go to different worlds."
"Well he's the all powerful Harry Potter. He is the Twins! Did you doubt his power?"
"But Li said-"
He scowled.
"Fuck what Li said. Li isn't even Li anymore babbling through that simpering woman's mouth he would have us fix EVE's timeline ourselves going so far as to creating and you and having me give you borrowed time!"
"..." Pansy said nothing.
"It's annoying that Harry has decided to go against us and find those feathers himself for a mother he doesn't know. The Fei-Wong Reed that he should worry about is here now, well half of him anyway. The other half you have to seduce while I prepare the mother womb in which to birth another Potter. Though I must convince Severus first which won't and never has been a simple task."
Pansy nodded and watched from her side of the mirror fade until she saw her own reflection. She looked out into the veranda and watched the sakura blossoms fall and disintegrate into light wondered where Harry Potter was and asked herself again, why she hadn't allowed Bill to send at least Harry back?
After all what use would a Deadly Doll be to Draco Malfoy in the future?
"Hello?" An unsure voice said and Pansy hoped that the ornate headdress looked presentable. She looked down into the mirror and stared into the eyes of James Potter and smiled.
This takes place in the Past of 1975 approximately, technically one year after Kujaku revealed the truth to Harry. As you see Lily and Snape are quite close though not romantically involved. Sirius is possessed by Kujaku because he is literally the closest living descendant of Kujaku who has wings. Sirius doesn't know about the wings though, not yet.
It is suspected that Harry went mad after he learned who he was or rather how many other people then himself that he is. His own grand father is half of him, he is half a Potter and wholly two twins of light and dark. He is now searching for Sakura's feather in order to find his way to Fei-Wong Reed and to revive his mother Hoshi no Hime.
Sorry to those lovers of Manly handsome Remus...I needed a visual contrast to Sirius and I always liked the pretty boys. Remus is incredibly androgynous-he has male admirers...he is also very dangerous because of his violent temper...Sirius is quite taken with him though to the exact extent isn't necessarily known.
James was a bit whiney but hey, he has been rejected by his crush for what the second time? He never gives up does he? Why does Pansy need to seduce him? Why does Severus Snape need convincing? You'll see!
Until next time, LovingTheOgre (Sera) is out!
