The Observers - The Water
Colin Creevey was confused. As of the late, he had slowly started becoming wary of one Harry Potter. Maybe it was the changes in his appearance that made him want to stay far away or beg for forgiveness. Maybe it was the new attitude of his, slightly more Slytherin, a little less Gryffindor. Or maybe it was those memories playing up again.
Memories that had burst forth with the trauma that was being petrified. Oh, he was still the same person, but he became well aware of the changes of those around him. Be it personality or appearance. He still had a bit of a big mouth though. He had not meant to start that fight between Harry and Malfoy.
Due to these changes, Colin instinctively knew the fifth year would no longer appreciate him constantly fanboying over him. Instead, Colin's focus turned to the similarly changed Draco Malfoy and Tracey Davis, who both gave him a sense of familiarity. He knew them. Was friends with them. At least, that was what his memories told him. But a Gryffindor can't really say that he's friends with Slytherins out in the open, can he? Thus, he restrained himself, only watching from afar.
But maybe his focus should have been on a certain Hufflepuff...
The Observers - The Illusion
Rolf Scamander was an oddity in Hufflepuff. As studious as a Ravenclaw, and as sly as a Slytherin. And although Puffs were well known for being very friendly, he often kept to himself, rarely interacting with anyone. Most of the Hufflepuffs deferred to him however, being a well known voice of reason, especially when Cedric Diggory died.
Also, unlike most of the school, he shied away from Harry Potter right from the start, often saying that the scent of darkness hurt his head. This of course confused many. After all, why would the Saviour of the Wizarding World smell of darkness?
He did, however, watch people from afar. Specifically, Percy Weasley, Draco Malfoy, Tracey Davis, and Luna Lovegood.
The four of them had easily caught his attention due to their scents. Weasley was of fire, Malfoy and Davis disgustingly smelt of light, with a hint of wind in Malfoy's scent. Lovegood had the scent of paper, paints, other art materials, and the occasional odd scent that he didn't recognize, but knew to belong to the creatures the girl often saw.
He observed them. During his first, second and third years he watched, and slowly but surely, the memories of his past trickled through. Although for some strange reason, the face that Tracey's scent belonged to was often blurred, the words in the memories covered in static.
But he really should have paid more attention to that strangely familiar scent of water coming from Gryffindor...
The Observers - The Magical Theory Group
Everyone stared. Today, Riku thought it would be a good idea to see what would be everyone's most suitable weapon. And almost everyone chose the more common weapons of the weapons rack the Room had provided. Meaning swords, daggers, knuckles, bows and arrows, tessen, staffs and more. However, one person had picked something rather unconventional from the Room.
Colin Creevey had chosen a sitar. A blue sitar that Rolf knew belonged to Demyx. And Colin was expertly playing songs with said instrument, causing everyone to become entranced by the music.
Sighing, Rolf snapped his book closed, causing everyone to snap out of their trance.
Colin though, looked up in surprise at the awfully familiar sound, and his eyes widened when he saw Rolf walk towards him with an extremely familiar book in hand, the beginnings of what he recognized as a Thunder spell on his lips.
The minute he took a step back, Rolf had completed the spell and a bright yellow bolt struck where Colin once stood. Realizing the danger he was in, Colin immediately slung his Sitar onto his back and began running as the Hufflepuff began slinging spell after spell at him.
Turning around when he was cornered, Colin took his Sitar and strummed, instinctively summoning forth bodies of water. Laughing at the startled look on everyone's faces, particularly Riku, Roxas, Xion and Naminé, he started strumming a melody, manipulating the water to attack Rolf and shouting, "Dance, Water, Dance!"
Rolf was hit by the attack, but his form shimmered and disappeared, causing everyone to wonder where he went.
"Where do you think you're aiming, Colin?" the voice of Rolf echoed in the room as a human sized version of the book he had been holding appeared. The book opened, and Rolf stepped out, book still in hand, giving Colin a glare.
However, the fourth year Gryffindor had run out of the Room in a hurry, not wanting to be on the receiving end of the Hufflepuff's magic. Rolf then decided to calmly give chase, knowing that the session was going to be useless for him anyways. After all, he already had his Book of Retribution, though he had only found it by complete accident.
Riku, on the other hand, sighed, and muttered to the remaining students, "And that, was an example of how some magical weapons can be used to cast specialised types of magic. I seriously doubt that anyone else here will be able to pull it off, however, as I have a feeling that those two were special cases."
"How is a book a weapon, Harry?" Hermione asked quietly as she practiced with a simple spear against Riku's odd sword. Riku didn't answer, leaving her confused and wondering for the rest of the session.
Xion just whispered to Roxas, "That was Demyx and Zexion wasn't it."
Rubbing the bridge of his nose, Roxas sighed as he nodded. Naminé just looked confused, as she had not received any indication that the two were to be reincarnated. At all. Not even in her drawings, which were often prophetic.
THIS WAS MY ORIGINAL OBSERVERS UNIVERSE CHAPTER! This had been sitting in my iPhone for months already. Considered a canon incident, this reincarnated duo, will be focused a little more on cameo appearances. Heck, Rolf Scamander already made his appearance in Chapter 14, and I've been trying to give Colin a few appearances as well re: Chapter 15's fight was caused by him! And yes, the Magical Theory Group Observers is a post ItB Xion chapter meeting. There will be a reference to this particular incident later during a future chapter!
This series is actually dedicated to DarkKitsuneFluffy, who is one of my more frequent reviewers for a whole bunch of my fics. They gave me this little idea in the first place, so I decided to have this made. And just recently, thanks to some inspiration, I posted the first Observers Universe chapter. While that is officially the first chapter, THIS is the Unofficial First Chapter in the Observers Universe.
Demyx and Zexion/Ienzo will not be making too many appearances however, as they weren't part of the original 10 I had planned on reincarnating, thus I did not have many plans to fit them into future chapters. (Expect Colin to be playing music occasionally, and Rolf reading lots of books and doing research. Or either of them causing problems in the background.)
ALSO…
Extra Scene:
15th February, 1997
The Great Hall
The day after Valentines Day had everyone starring at the couple known as Sora and Riku. Ginny was seen spitting insults at Sora, though the blue eyed boy was too occupied with talking to Riku to even notice. Roxas was giving chilling glares at Riku, though the teen understood why.
But the minute they sat down at their table, the sound of guitar chords caused them to look behind.
Standing in the middle of the hall, Colin looked right at the couple while grinning and strumming the Arpeggio. And singing.
"There you see him,
Sitting there across the way
He don't got a lot to say
but there's something about him
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss the-URK!"
Everyone blinked when they saw a bolt of lightning interrupt the song, charring the singer to crisp. Then Riku and Sora stared when Rolf walked up and bowed, "I'm sorry about this idiot. Please continue with your meal."
He then dragged Colin away while muttering, "I believe I warned you about doing this in front of everyone," while Colin himself gave a dazed whine of, "Zexy... Why..."
Sora just sweat dropped at the scene and asked Riku, "Was that who I think it is?"
Riku just groaned in response, and wondered just how the two reincarnations had stayed hidden for so long.
