Chapter seven is here . . . . . don't have anything else so on with the show.

MT SC-CH 7

After the revelation of the Dark lord being a half-blood they all tried to find out how Tom is related to Slytherin. They all already had their training, they finished early to find out about Tom Riddle, and Luna was exploring the castle with Lunamon shadowing her.

"Hey, I found something." Andrei said gaining their, the digimon were sleeping in bed since there wasn't much for them to do, attention as they spend the weekend finding information.

"Well tell us." Catherine told him sitting next to Takeshi.

"It turns out that on Tom's mother side, the Gaunt's, are direct descendants of Salazar Slytherin," Andrei said then added, "She fell in love with Tom Sr. and used love potions to get his attention, but after that Sr. wised up and left her and their unborn child."

Taking the paper Takeshi finished with, "She ended up in London dying after giving birth to Tom Marvolo Riddle." Looking at the paper again he asked, "How did you find out about this, I don't think there would be this much info on him?"

"Snuck into the headmaster's office," Andrei explained to their surprise, "All information on the students are there; all the portraits were asleep, but the sorting hat and when I told him what I was looking for he pointed me in the right direction," then pulling out a rolled piece of parchment he handed it to Takeshi finishing his sentence, "The hat also told me to give this to you."

Taking the parchment and opening it only to see the title it read 'THE WILL OF JAMES AND LILY POTTER', "The fool hand my parents will!?" Takeshi nearly yelled with his magic nearly flying around him.

Imminently hugging him Catherine whispered soothing words calming him down, "We'll figure this out don't worry my love."

Calming down Takeshi took some deep breaths, "Thank you, my love," he said kissing her and turning to Andrei he said, "Thanks, brother." Andrei nodded in response.

"It's also said that Tom is a descendant of Cadmus Peverell." Takeshi said getting back on track. "You mean the one who killed himself to be with his lost love." Catherine said getting a nod. "Why didn't he claim heir to the Peverell family ring?" Andrei asked.

"He probably didn't know that his family goes that far back." Takeshi answered.

Going to the Great Hall for Breakfast they all sat down to eat when Dumbledore stood up, "I have an announcement to make," he said gaining the attention of the entire room, "As of late night on Saturday young Colin Creevey was found petrified and is in the hospital room as we speak. That is all." After sitting down the whole room burst into whispers.

"So it strikes again." Takeshi commented eating his breakfast with others following.

Telling McGonagall that all three were going away for Christmas then headed to the owl tower to tell their folk about them leaving Hogwarts for the Christmas.

With that done they headed to Potions class which was double period. As they were working on their potion Takeshi heard the distinctive sound of sizzling and when he went to find the source he saw it was Ron about to throw a firecracker. At mid launch, Takeshi whipped out his wand, "Impedimenta." He yelled causing Severus to stand straight at the jinx.

"5 points to Hufflepuff," Severus said, "Thank you for stopping that firecracker, Takeshi." Takeshi nodded.

While bellowing Weasley Catherine looked around the room; eyes falling on the door to Severus's office opened, "Professor." Catherine called out getting both Ron's and Snape's attention one with a questioning look the other with an extremely paling look. Pointing to the door they turned and saw Hermione walk out of the office slowly closing the door.

Turning she looked and lost all color to her face upon seeing the professor's outraged looked, "50 points from Gryffindor!" he yelled getting both guilty students to go pale face even further and the rest of the lions the glare furiously at the two offenders. "Class dismissed." he said once more causing everyone to run out of the room.

"Well, now we know why Ron was about to throw the firecracker." Takeshi said. "He was causing a distraction so that Hermione could get something." Andrei added. "But what was she trying to get." Catherine finished saying.

A few days later it turns out that Ron was going to take his revenge throwing, "Expulso!" launching the curse at Takeshi; who spun around dodging it hitting a wall.

"Why did you throw that, Weasley?" Takeshi yelled. This caused the entire hall to flee in terror some trying to find a teacher others heading to their common room. "You'll pay for getting me in trouble Potter!" Ron yelled firing a jelly leg curse at his opponent's legs.

Catherine, who was still there along with Andrei, threw up a shield stopping the curse from landing on Takeshi.

"How do you even have a working wand," Andrei asked with his wand in hand, "I thought your wand was busted?"

"None of your business." Ron yelled about to launch another spell when Sprout, Severus, and McGonagall came running in, "Wands down." McGonagall yelled all three lowering their wands, but Ron threw on last curse, "Reducto."

Seeing that the curse was going to Catherine; Takeshi pushed her out of the way getting grazed in the process by said curse.

"Takeshi!?" Catherine yelled seeing her boyfriend taking the curse while Andrei turned to Ron yelling, "Locomotor Mortis." Resulting in Ron's legs to snap together making him fall from not being able to stand properly.

"You alright Takeshi," Spout asked her puff. "I'm alright," Takeshi told his head of house, "I felt it just graze my back." he finished.

"Good job on the Leg-lock curse Andrei." Severus told the Russian getting a nod.

"15 points from Gryffindor." McGonagall said looking not so pleased with saying that.

"Tergeo." Sprout whispered healing the wound.

"That should be fine," Sprout told him, "You three should head back to the dorms." Agreeing all three puff second years left for their common room.

After that nothing else important happened, but the diamond scale at the Great Hall looked like it was about to hit rock bottom with what looked like a few hundred points left on it; turning to the lion's den everyone was glaring at Ron and Hermione.

Walking near the notice board all the foreign wizards and witch saw a group of people. Takeshi curious, along with the rest, walked up to Dean and asked, "What's going on?" Turning to the voice Dean answered, "There's a dueling club going on; today's it's first meeting."

"Dueling club?" Catherine wondered. "Do you want to take a chance to check it out." she said looking at the boys. Getting a 'Sure' and a 'Way not' from the guys all three changed their direction to the Great Hall. Feeling something might happen Takeshi went back to his dorm room to grab an item then met up with the others.

"It better not be-." Takeshi began but ended with a groan upon seeing that is was Lockhart leading this club with Snape as an assistant teacher.

Lockhart waved an arm for silence and called, "Gather round, gather round! Can everyone see me? Can you all hear me? Excellent!" the blonde idiot yelled as the student flocked to him.

"Now, Professor Dumbledore has granted me permission to start this little dueling club, to train you all in case you ever need to defend yourselves as I myself have done on countless occasions - for full details, see my published works." "I see," Catherine informed them, "He's using this as a way to sell him books."

Andrei grunted, "So we won't be learning anything useful." Takeshi just snorted in agreement.

"My assistant, fellow professor Snape," Lockhart announced smiling at the scowling professor, "Has told me that he knows a little defense and agreed to help me teach you."

"Done worry," Lockhart added, "You'll have your potion's professor in one piece at the end."

The small curl on Severus's face looked like he was going to enjoy placing Lockhart in his place; Takeshi thought, 'I would mind being in Snape-sensei's position.'

"As you see, we are holding our wands in the accepted combative position." Lockhart told the silent crowd. "On the count of three, we will cast our first spells. Neither of us will be aiming to kill, of course."

"Professor Snape looks like he wants to land Lockhart in the medical wing." Andrei whispered to them.

"Takeshi," Snape called out getting his attention, "Why don't you count us down."

Agreeing with that, Takeshi stepped up between the duelers he called, "You may call out your spell in 3. . .2 . . . . 1!" he finished yelling at one.

Both duelers swung their wands above their heads, Snape yelling out first, "Expelliarmus!" throwing Lockhart's wand out of his hand and into Snape's outstretched hand; launching Lockhart into the air and landing him slamming against the wall falling on the floor.

After a few minutes, everyone was wondering if he's un-cautions; however to those who don't like him, he got up with is grin still on his face. Taking his wand from Snape he declared, "There you have it. That was the disarming charm, as you can see, I've lost my wand." Here Snape was looking murderous.

Lockhart may have seen him when he stated, "That's out of the way let's pair up." As Takeshi walked up to Andrei Snape said out loud, "Before we do that why don't we see a duel between the boy-who-live and the great Gilderoy Lockhart!" this got yells from the crowd, but for our duelist, one was eye twitching and the other was sweating.

Turning to Snape the Japanese native questioned, "Can I use magic from my homeland?" Thinking it Snape agreed saying, "You may."

Since everyone was till staring at them; they all thought what kind of magic was in Japan.

Pulling out a fan, Ron laughed, "How will a fan help you in a duel." This got chuckles and giggles from the audiences. "You'll see."

"Begin!" Snape yelled throwing his hand down.

"Expelliarmus!" he yelled. Dodging the spell Takeshi opened the fan letting it form a circle in front of him then yelled, "Bird spirit!" then out of the center was a medium size raven that flew up cawed; sees Lockhart and dives down then right as it was going to hit the floor. The bird lifts up charging towards Lockhart slamming him in the chest throwing him against the same wall, but this time, leaves a small crater (think of how Brave Bird works in Pokémon Diamond & Perl).

As the dust clears, the entire room was silent all the British magic users surprised that he did that without waving his arms. "You were saying Weasley." Takeshi asked glancing at him, but all he got was silence as the red heads mouth dropped along with the rest of the class.

"Tell me Takeshi," Snape asked, "What level of power was it on." Takeshi told him, "Since the scroll themselves have their own magic fused within it's on the mid-range section by itself," he explained getting surprised look that the scroll had magic fused in it like a wand, "But add my magic, which I didn't, it could land someone in the hospital."

"That was a mid-power spell!" Snape questioned surprised, "Can anyone use it?" Takeshi shook his head, "No," then explained, "It works as a sort of leveling up system as the muggles say it. The more you use it; the more of the chance you can use the higher level scrolls."

"And how many levels are there?" Snape asked, "E is the lowest and weakest and A being the highest and strongest."

"Thank you for the demonstration of how different magic works in another country," Snape announced then went to check on Lockhart, "I think this club session is over," Severus declared, "Miss Brown, Miss Granger can you please bring professor Lockhart to the medical wing and tell Pomfrey that there was an accident."

Taking the downed professor to the medical wing Snape declared that the club was done for the night. Leaving the Great Hall, everyone was talking about how Lockhart isn't as good as he is too Takeshi's magic scroll.

"That was awesome." Andrei said walking into their common room. Catherine giggled, "It was nice seeing Lockhart being put in his place." She kissed him on the cheek telling them 'Good night.' heading to their room Takeshi asked, "Are you spending Christmas with my family or with yours?"

"I'll be spending it with your family," this caught Takeshi by surprised, "My family will also come because they wanted to spend the holiday in a different country." "Ahh," Takeshi said getting it, "That's fine but they'll have to get a hotel because there isn't enough room in my house." he added resulting in Andrei to nod.

Done with the chapter, next time is our three heroes going back. Takeshi will meet the parents of his brother and girlfriend. Well, it may not be actual family, but cousins and the likes; I will give you a hint about who it will be, though, TRI-WIZARD TOURNAMENT that was the hint comment on who it is, bye.
