Protecting The Chosen One

Epilogue

By: Snow Phoenix-Dragon

When harry woke up he looked arond to find himself in the school's infirmary. He took his glasses from the table next to him and placed them on. He also noticed that a few flowers and treats were also there.

"Hello Harry."

Harry looked up to see a pink haired girl in front of him.

"Sakura?"

The girl smiled and nodded her head.

"But I thought you were dead."

"I am dead, just here."

"So you're a ghost?"

"Yes, but I can actually touch you, hold things, and I can make myself pass through things like a ghost. I just look like I used to, but I won't be able to age or die, since I'm already dead."

"Oh, I'm sorry." Harry looked at his hands.

"Don't be. I was able to do my job and I'm glad you're safe. Well, the others are in the Great Hall. We managed to clean it up and fix things while you were out." Sakura went to walk to the doors. She turned around and smiled.

"I'll come too."

Harry made his way over to the pinkette.

"Oh and just so you know the students came back yesterday, you were out for three whole days."

"I was?"

"Yes. Ginny came by and visited you. Along with your friends and Dumbledore."

"Ah."

"Yep. I actually visited yuou more than anyone else. considering that I have been sleeping in the infirmary since the fight."

"You can sleep?"

Sakura laughed at the comment.

"Yes. Unlike some others, but I get my rest and I can actually eat food still. Just not that many, sicne my appetite has gone down considerably."

The two entered the Great Hall and all the noises stopped and everyone turned to face them.

Sakura ran over to the Gryffindor table, pulling Harry along. She placed him in between Ron and Hermione while she went over to Dumbledore and began talking with him. After he nodded with approval he stood up and made his way to the podium.

"Students, teachers, and ghosts of Hogwarts. Please give a round of applause for the guards." his voice boomed.

The Great Hall burst into cheers, whoops, and claps. The only people who weren't cheering was Malfoy and his gang.

"Also, today is the last day that they will be here. They will be returning home by this portkey and maybe they will come back someday, as guests, not as guards. Now since all classes and exams have been cancelled, let us have a party for the defeat of Voldemort!"

The hall burst into cheers, whoops, and clapping. This time much louder than the one before.

Sakura glided over to her friends and smiled.

"I still cna't believe that you are dead Sakura." Kiba said.

"I know, but I'm still here. I can still feel all the emotions as I have before, just have the ability a ghost does." Sakura said sadly. Then she brightened up. "On the bright side, I can mess with the ninjas back home."

Everyone rolled their eyes at her comment.

"Still the same Sakura-chan. Still the same." laughed Naruto.

"And what's that supposed to mean?"

Naruto gulped.

"In case you weren't listening earlier Naruto, I still can do everything else before I died, which means I have inhuman strength still and I can slip into your house and attack you in your sleep."

Everyone else laughed or smirked at the blonde haired Kyuubi holder as he shook with nervousness.

"Well, time to go back home I guess." Hinata said.

Everyone nodded.

"Next time I'm here I'll make sure to have more fun." Kiba said.

The seven of them walked to the podium where Dumbledore stood. The man raised his hands and the hall was once again silent. He turned to the group from Konoha and smiled at them. He held out an antique hairbrush and Sasuke took it. The other six placed their hand or finger on the item and they felt a tug on their navels, leaving the magic school for their ninja village.

"Hey, I have a feeling that I forgot something." Sakura said as soon as the group landed in Tsunade's office, causing said woman to wake up and spill her sake everywhere.

~ Hogwarts ~

Hey Draco, what happened to your tongue?" Crabbe asked.

The Weasly twins looked over and back to each other and grinned. "Nice."
