I do not own anything.
"Again? You mean the Chamber of Secrets has been open before?" Tailmon asked.
Once Daisuke was cleared from the Hospital Wing, he told Hikari, Takeru, V-mon, Tailmon, and Patamon what he heard the previous night. They were in the girls' bathroom again. They were brewing the Polyjuice Potion there. It was the safest place to hide it. Daisuke noticed that Hikari looked a little pale. When he asked her about it, she brushed it off as having had a nightmare last night.
"Of course. Don't you see?" Takeru said as if it was obvious. "Koaku Yozei must've opened the Chamber of Secrets when he was here in school. And now he's taught dear old Ryu how to do it. Wish Dobu would've told you what kind of monster it is, though. I want to know how come nobody's noticed it sneaking around the school."
"Maybe it can make itself invisible. Or it can disguise itself into something, such as a suit of armor. I read about the Chameleon Ghouls." Hikari said.
"You read too much." V-mon said.
Hikari just replied with a playful glare.
"Anyway, we'll have to wait for the Polyjuice Potion to know for sure." Hikari said.
"So Dobu stopped us from getting on that train and broke your arm?" V-mon asked. "You know, Daisuke, if he doesn't stop trying to save you, he'll end up killing you."
"Don't you think we should tell Miyako and Hawkmon about this? I mean, they are involved. They were with us when we found Ms. Dam." Takeru asked.
"One step ahead of ya. I already told them. They're in on the plan, trying to help us from their end." Hikari answered.
The news about Cona and Monodramon had already spread out through the entire school. The 1st years were scared out of their minds. The other Erabareshi Kodomo were concerned about what to do.
A week after the incident, as everyone descended for dinner, they were approached by Samuso and Hagurumon.
"Hey, guys, did you hear the news?"
"What news?" Daisuke asked.
"They're starting a Dueling Club. First meeting is tonight after dinner. For all those who want to attend." Samuso said before he and Hagurumon hurried to catch up with Rei and Spadamon.
"Sounds interesting. We should check it out." Daisuke said.
"Could be useful." Hikari agreed.
After dinner they all went to the class where the duel was being held.
"Wonder who's teaching us." Hikari said.
"As long as it's not…" Daisuke sentence finished with a groan as he saw that not only Urameshi was going to give the class, but so was Sato. "Why does God hate me?"
Urameshi waved his arm to silence the entire classroom. Once he had all their attention he asked "Can you all see me? Can you all hear me?"
Once they nodded, Urameshi continued.
"Good. In light of the recent dark events that have been occurring at our school, the Headmaster has allowed me to start this little Dueling Club with my assistant, Sato Savaro, so that you may learn to defend yourselves, as I myself have done on countless occasions. For full details, see my published works." Urameshi said with a smile. Daisuke and V-mon didn't know why he was smiling. If Sato were looking at them that way, they would be running as fast as they could in the opposite direction.
After Urameshi and Sato took out their wands and bowed to each other, they each went to one side of the table they were standing on. They turned and pointed their wands to each other.
"Now, on the count of 3. 1, 2, 3."
"Expelliarmus!" Sato said as a jet of red light came flying out the tip of his wand, hitting Urameshi squarely in the chest, causing him to fly backwards and hit the wall, sliding down to sprawl on the floor as his wand to fly from his hand.
"Do you think he's all right?" Miyako asked.
"Who cares?" Daisuke, V-mon, Takeru, and Patamon said simultaneously.
"Not bad, Sato-sensei, not bad. But I must say it was quite obvious you were going to do that. If I wanted to, I could have easily defended myself." Urameshi said as he stood up and took his wand.
Sato looked at Urameshi as if he were contemplating on whether making his slowly killing on making it quick and just getting over with it.
"Perhaps it would be more prudent to teach the students how to first defend themselves from unfriendly spells." Sato suggested.
"Yes, but I think that first the students should have a bit of experience for themselves. I'll need two volunteers. Motomiya, Takaishi." Urameshi said.
"Takaishi's wand causes devastation with even the simplest spells. We'd be sending Motomiya in a matchbox. May I suggest someone from my house, instead? Koaku, perhaps?" Sato said, before turned and pointing and Koaku for him to get onto the stage.
The whole class was now hooked onto what was going on. The rivalry between Daisuke and Koaku was no secret to anyone.
"Wands at the ready." Urameshi said, making both Daisuke and Koaku lift their wands.
"Scared, Motomiya?" Koaku asked.
"You wish." Daisuke replied.
"Bow." Daisuke and Koaku barely inclined their heads, never stopping to glare at each other.
"When I count to 3, cast your charms to disarm, only disarm your opponents. We don't want any accidents. 1…2…"
"Everte Statum!" Koaku spell hit Daisuke so hard it sent him rolling through the air until he crashed at the end of table.
Daisuke stood up, furious, and wasted no time aiming his wand at Koaku and shouted "Rictusempra!"
A jet of silver light hit Koaku in the stomach and he doubled up, laughing and wheezing. Daisuke had hit him with a Tickling Charm; Koaku could barely move. Daisuke chose not to bewitch Koaku any further, as it would be unsporting. This proved to be a mistake. Still laughing, Koaku was still able to rise up and choke "Tarantallegra!", and the next second, Daisuke's legs began jerking around uncontrollably in a form of dubstep.
"Finite Incantatem!" Sato launched a spell at Daisuke, making him regain control of his legs just as Koaku managed to stop laughing.
"Stop! I said disarm only!" Urameshi said.
But neither Daisuke nor Koaku paid attention to him.
"Serpensortia!"
Out of the end of Koaku's wand came a long black snake that fell onto the table. There were screams and the crowd backed away swiftly.
"Don't move, Motomiya. I'll get rid of it for me." Sato said, enjoying the sight of Daisuke standing face to face with an angry snake.
"Allow me!" Urameshi said, brandishing his wand at the snake and there was a loud bang; the snake, instead of vanishing, the snake flew 10 feet into the air and fell back with a loud smack. Enraged, the snake turned to Fucamitsu Jerai, fangs exposed, ready to stroke.
"Leave him alone!" Daisuke said. He didn't know what made him do it, but strangely the snake obeyed his order.
"Vipera Evanesca." Daisuke heard Sato mutter those words and the next second, a light hit the snake and it burned to ashes.
Daisuke looked at Jerai, smiling, expecting him to be relieved and thankful, but what he got instead was a look of fear and anger.
"What're you playing at? !" Jerai said, infuriated before storming out of the room, followed by Kotemon.
Daisuke looked around to see everyone, with the exception of V-mon, staring at him in fear and dread, all of the muttering ominously. Daisuke then felt someone grabbing his robes.
"Move! Come on!" Takeru muttered.
As Daisuke got down from the table, he was dragged out of the room by the blonde, followed by the rest of the group. They went all the way until they were one set of staircase away from the Fat Lady's portrait.
"You're a Parselmouth? Why didn't you tell us?" Ken asked.
"A what?" Daisuke asked.
"A Parselmouth! You can speak to snakes!" Takeru said.
"Well, I did tell that snake to back off, but that doesn't necessarily mean I speak to snakes." Daisuke said.
"Oh, so that's what you told the snake." Patamon said.
"You guys were there, you heard him!" V-mon replied.
"We heard him speaking Parselmouth. Snake language." Wormmon said. "He could have been saying anything. No wonder Jerai panicked. It seemed like he were egging the snake. It was freaky."
Daisuke and V-mon gaped at them.
"I spoke a different language? How can I speak a different language without knowing?"
Hikari shrugged shrugged.
"But I was able to understand him." V-mon said.
"Wait, you understood everything he said?" Hawkmon asked, and V-mon nodded.
"Then that means you're also a Parselmouth." Patamon said.
"Okay, so we're Parselmouths. Big deal. I bet loads of people can do it." Daisuke said.
"No, they can't. It's not a very common gift." Ken replied.
"But why does it even matter?"
"It matters because talking to snakes is what Suruberu Sanabara is famous for. That's why the symbol of the Suruberu House is a snake." Miyako said.
Daisuke and V-mon once again gaped.
"Yeah. Now the whole school's going to think you're his great-great-great-great-great-grandson or something." Takeru said.
"But I'm not! …I can't be…" Daisuke replied.
"He lived more than 1000 years ago, Daisuke-san. For all we do now, you could be." Ken replied.
When they each went their separate ways and went to sleep, Daisuke and V-mon stayed away for hours. They weren't talking to each other. They knew what the other was thinking. There was no way Daisuke could be a descendant of Suruberu Sanabara. Could he? Wait. Jun!
V-mon sat up as an idea came to his mind. If Daisuke could speak Parseltongue, does that mean Jun could? He could ask her about her and Daisuke's magical ancestry. He turned to tell Daisuke but thought his partner was sleeping, so he lay back down and also went to sleep.
But Daisuke was still awake, wondering if he could really be the descendant of Suruberu.
"No! I'm in Goono! The Sorting Hat put me here!" Daisuke thought angrily, until a voice came in his mind. "But the Sorting Hat wanted to put you in Suruberu…Remember?"
I hope you all like the chapter. Review please. And no this isn't a x-over because it's more of a content in a different story rather than an actual x-over.
