Once again, I own nothing but my imagination.
Chapter 12
Hope you guys enjoy :)
Last time: Snape and Sirius finally got a lead, but who is their strange visitor?
Dumbledore was now losing his patience Dolores once again came and asked him about 'Harry.' However, that wasn't his worry. It was that it's been a few days since he came and Severus and Sirius never turned up with the boy who was their savior and he be damned it the prophecy wasn't fulfilled to its fullest.
"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches. … Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies … and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not … and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives. … The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies…"
Yes, Dumbledore remembers the prophecy told to him by Sybill Trelawney and as I said he be damned if the prophecy wasn't fulfilled. Enough of that, now Dumbledore didn't have time to think of such petty matters what bothered him was that his spy wasn't there to back him for the order meeting that's in a few days. That just goes to show that Albus Dumbledore likes to keep his pawns in a tight notch sadly to say which is fortunate for so many –Harry won't be easy to get nor will she be his pawn to do with as he sees fit, but there is one thing that was forming in his mind.
Little did he know that his little plan wouldn't work one bit.
They were at least ten minutes from the abandon house that was surrounded by trees, small trees. Sirius was just sniffing following 'Harry's' sent with Snap efollowing him close behind when suddenly…
"Are you and your companion lost?"
'Lily..?' was the first thought that ranged through Severus mind as he stared at the girl before him.
Sirius barked happily and didn't even think; he ran straight towards his godchild. Haku looked on curiously after all, even now that she's a girl her curiosity never wavered down. However, her instincts as a shinobi is just as powerful as her curiosity, she side-stepped and moved out he way, but that wasn't why she did it, it was because in her hand was a basket with special herbs for her favorite remedy –the herbal tea.
Haku smiled tilting her head repeating her earlier question. "Are you and your companion lost?"
Now, it took a lot to make Severus Snape impress, but the way the youth moved was… was graceful and beautiful something that the dunderheads at Hogwarts didn't have. Well they were good looking yes, but in movements such as what the Potter just did …Nada.
Snape finally spoke. "No were not lost. Actually you can help us."
Haku head titled once again as she had a curious look before smiling, "Help? With what exact-"
"We found you and we would just like a moment of your time." Snape was trying to not berate himself after all; he could have phrased that better.
Haku held up her basket as if it was the obvious answer. "You must have me confused with someone else," she said smiling. "As you can see I'm collecting herbs." She recognized this man and the dog, as they were with an old man previously. So where was the old man that gave off the bad vibe?
Snape folded his arms; he might as well start from the beginning. "Let me explain from the beginning. Is there a place we can go and discuss this?" He asked pleasantly as possible.
Haku looked amused smiling. "As I said I'm collecting herbs if you have something to say than here would be just fine."
Snape nodded," fine... Let me explain." Snape said once again.
Haku smiled beautifully. "You have the same eyes as we do." Snape didn't have time to ponder on what Potter just said, "Alright you can explain, but if you don't mind me finishing up with the herbs."
Why was she collecting herbs? Snape knew that herbal ingredients were just as important and crucial as collecting ingredients for a potion.
Sirius wasn't a dumb person far from it actually and he smelled that something didn't quite feel right. Oh how right his instincts were because Haku could easy be plotting them into a trap or she could kill within the blink of an eye. Yeah his instincts are definitely right.
"I am professor Snape teacher at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry."
'Witch craft? Surely this man must mean a different form of chakra?' Haku thought frowning as she picked some herbs. But she listened patiently none the less.
"While I am the potions master at the school there are other professors..." Snape continued.
"May I ask Snape-san what does this have to do with me?" Haku asked finally looking up from her picking.
Haku smiled at his silence as she answered. "It would best you start from the very beginning Snape-san."
Sirius barked in agreement while a small smile actually played on Snape's features. "I was just hoping to tell you about the school, but it seems that you have seen through it Ms. Potter."
Haku was just about to speak when Snape spoke up, "Yes, to answer to your expression you were born to James's and Lily Potter …" Snape continued and was even more impressed that the girl was listening intently as he even told her of why the wizarding world wanted her.
Alarm bells went off in Haku's head. 'They want me to leave Zabuza-san to fight their war? A war that they created and to make it worse they claimed an infant to be their savior. '
Haku didn't answer for a good while which made Snape and Sirius worry. "Ms. Potter?"
Haku answered with coldness than rivaled the artic. "My name's Haku. I may believe on the fact that you are right however," she said grabbing her basket of herbs and standing up to leave. "I am no longer this 'Harry Potter' and am not going to this school you speak of."
Wow, Haku said everything yet, what she said was not denying anything. She turned away from them walking away then looked over her shoulder face devoid. "I have no business with your war and it's disgustingly dishonorable of warriors such as you wizards to place your lives on an infant child and by the way I killed my parents."
Haku turned vanishing as she left a shock Severus and near-dead Sirius who looked like he wished he was anywhere, but at his current location.
That went smoothly.
It took ten whole seconds before Snape sneered. "Come on Black let's continue."
Black was in his human form, "Yea let's go she's only ten minutes away. Maybe we can try to persuade her again."
Oh how foolish wizards were.
Haku was not happy, which was rare for the… always smiling ice-ninja. "Haku?" Zabuza called.
The missing – ninja was getting worried, but he would never admit it even to the young wolf brat. He raised a brow after receiving no answer. "Woman what's bothering you?" Zabuza asked. This was indeed a rarity because Haku never really got angry, but it would be a fool's stupidity that ever thought otherwise.
Haku turned around and smiled, but Zabuza saw right through. "Come on Haku let's go." He said getting up, it didn't matter at the moment that he just recovered all that mattered was getting his Haku back to normal. His…?
Zabuza didn't' even ponder on were the thought could have come from and walked over towards the door looking over his shoulder. "Well you coming to brat," he said looking at Kiba in the eyes.
Haku came back dressed in her normal attire of turtle-neck kimono and black matching sandals, her hair in its customary bun. The Kirigakure head-band covering her scar as her green emerald eyes swam with excitement at the prospect of releasing some of her anger.
Zabuza look once over, "Let's go and stay out of it, brat."
Kiba muttered something under his breath, stuffed his hands in his pockets and followed. He already came to a conclusion, he would follow and see this human woman Haku and see where it goes even though he did wanted to know the answer to his questions. However, there was one answer he did know Haku, was a human that was to pure, and way too good for the human male she's with.
He followed them to a clearing where there were more of those small trees. Kiba sat on a rock as he watched the two get ready to fight.
"So Haku," Zabuza said grabbing his sword and swinging it. "Would you care to explain now?" He asked, but didn't wait as he ran forward prepared to strike.
Haku dodged. "It's something I wish not to think of Zabuza-san," she said as she threw some needles at the elder missing-ninja who jumped out the way.
"To bad Haku I want to know what has you pissed off." He said as mist started to appear and his presence disappeared within the mist.
Haku bent down on her knees as she listened. She leaped back as the sound of oncoming kunai knives reached her ears. Zabuza came from behind and performed a round house kick. Haku twisted out the way, but her leg was caught by Zabuza's hands. Haku was thrown, but skied to a stop as she threw her needles.
Kiba watched the fight and was surprisingly impressed by the two the way that the spar was going; as they exchanged blows was as if they were communicating through their attacks.
The spar was coming to a close, indication by the mist lacking its thick fog. Haku was hit with a punch to her ribs as she flew hitting a three. However, just as she did...
"Harry!"
Kiba growled, Zabuza looked up from his companion who was on the ground and Haku didn't even bother. Standing in front of them were Severus Snape and Sirius Black, who wasn't in his dog form.
"So you're the fools who want to take what's mine away from me." Zabuza said angered- No angered wasn't even the right word to describe how pissed off Zabuza was. Haku blushed slightly, but just as rapidly it disappeared. Kiba looked on with an air of aloofness. Well it's about time the male human claims what's his.
Snape reached for his wand and Sirius growled, "Harry isn't yours." However, his treat went on deaf ears literally.
Haku stumbled a little, but stood up with her head down. "Zabuza-san let me take care of them."
Zabuza laughed. "So you want me to let you handle these fools eh, Haku?" Kiba snorted. Fools? Yea more like morons attracted the moth's flame.
"Don't hold back Haku."
"Of course," Haku said monotonously. Zabuza was having a field day moment, he turned towards young Kiba. "Scoot over brat; I want a front roll seat as well."
Kiba silently moved over and the missing-ninja sat causally by his side. Snape and Sirius watched the display and suddenly had a feeling of dread run through their spines.
Oh yes, what foolish wizards the British wizarding world are. Dumbledore being the biggest one for his two most trusted spy and keeper respectively were about to find out the hard way... You do not try to separate Haku/Harry from Zabuza Momoichi.
Haku's senbon were in her left hand while her other was forming rapid one-hand hand signs. Yup, they're about to learn just what 'Harry' could really do and Haku was ready to show them the ultimate price. Never try to take her from the person she trusted the most, the person she called… precious.
Haku began to glow a beautiful snow-like blue. "You people will regret ever trying to do such a thing."
Snape and Sirius could only watch in awe as they were being surrounded by ice-mirrors!
'Shit.' Severus cursed. When he got back to Hogwarts or if he makes it out a-live Dumbledore will be his first victim.
"Demonic Crystal Ice Mirrors!"
Poor, poor souls they have did the unthinkable and if Dumbledore knows what's good for him he won't try it a second time. Hehe, old fool. Knowing him he will do something stupid. Hehe, can't wait till I have the Hogwarts chappie -I know and just like you guys I want to see the looks on Umbridge and the rest of the wizarding world's faces. -Wait image in head- Hahahhahaha... Priceless.
Oh how will Sirius and Snape deal against a shinobi/wizard? What will happen next?
Since one of you guys asked I will oblige. Preview.
"You can't be serious you fool!" Sirius shouted.
Dumbledore waved him off and smiled. "I am my boy, and this way Harry will be away from that man."
Snape shouted, "Your insane, Albus!" He then shook his head. "I told you what happened when we tried to separate them, but you will not listen. You have dug your own grave.. And unfortunately, or fortunantely whichever way you see it no one will come to your aid this time."
Dumbledore frowned then smiled. " Harry will do no such thing."
