You know the drill... I own nothing, but my imagination.
Last chapter was purposelessly written like that. It was to just to let you know that war is coming for the wizards and apparently two very specific people placed their world in such a state. So, sorry to some it if felt so drabblely. Also, keep it up guys'! You totally all rock!
Well… here is chapter…..32 or should this be 31 ½?
"Having trouble sleeping, Severus?"
Snape turned his tired eyes on the unwanted quest and he growled. Couldn't whatever they had to say wait till Monday? However, Snape did not answer just stare blankly at the elder ninja.
Zabuza continue to smirk looks like him coming wasn't necessary; looks like the man had did his part and he was delighted. Why? The old fool most likely denied any warning given; Zabuza laughed leaning farther against the wall.
Snape raised a tired brow; surely the ninja wasn't losing it then again…
"Good then," Zabuza suddenly said. "Makes our little job easier," then he was gone leaving Snape to sigh in annoyance. Why did he suddenly have the feeling that Zabuza wanted to say something very important, but avoided like the plague?
Severus Snape shrugged. Sleep he needed not dwell in what ifs.
For the next week ever since that Friday's detention Umbitch has been more sadistic however, she has suffered on occasion sudden memory loss, headaches that would just suddenly appear, her nerves would act up during meal time and although it was quiet- murmurs where spreading about the woman and it didn't help that she hallucinated several times. People called her crazy.
Fred and George deemed that they would like to meet the new prankster, but unfortunately the pranksters were never found and rumors were made that a phantom prankster was pranking Umbridge. Little did anyone know however, that there was no such thing as the phantom prankster…or was there?
Hermione and Kuwabara however, watched the ninjas carefully while they sat at the Hufflepuff table eating. They watched one rather suspiciously and the other with unmasked anxiety after all; he wanted to prevent the woman from remembering that night and Haku had something wrong with her spirit energy or energy as he sensed a second energy growing rapidly yet, slowly.
"Kazuma," Kuwabara turned towards the bushy haired girl. "Well," she started looking between him and her books that were on her lap. "Since we have detention …We will get the homework done faster if….
Ron blurted in, "Count me in two!"
"Why? You could have done …
Ron waved it off rather awkwardly. "I was unable to. Now, come on let's get started the more the merrier!"
Hermione's eyes narrowed, surely the red-head was just … With a sigh Hermione nodded and they left the Great Hall and headed towards the common room.
Did I say that Umbridge was a sadist who even with her sudden strange behavior never once stopped her detentions? No, she didn't and Hermione scrunched up even when she wrote fearlessly.
"I must not tell lies."
"I must no tell lies."
"I must not tell lies."
The message didn't really sink in, but Hermione would still write risking a glance at Kazuma who was writing his own lines however; she would hear him muttering lowly curses and that Umbitch would just ignored him as if she heard, but… So the rumors were true the woman was suffering from some type of illness containing to memory loss because it looks as though she would forget it a second later.
"I must not tell lies."
"I must not tell lies."
Hermione then would risk glancing in Haku's direction and the girl looked absolutely unperturbed. Hermione thought the girl/teen would have lashed out like the first time, but she did not.
"Alright dears, let's see if the messages inked in?" Umbridge looked over their parchments and frowned one barely even had writing on it! That's no to say, but it was little. Umbridge was hoping the girl would learn. But, it seems...
"What is the meaning of this Ms. Yuki?"
Haku tilted her head. She was only following orders and besides the Haku that was in the detention wasn't even the real Haku!
The silence was enough time for Umbridge to forget her question. "What are you three still doing here?! I said go." It definitely was because of the carbonized poison needles and no one uttered a word as they left the pink monstrosity's office.
Kuwabara offered Hermione some ornament and the girl took it gratefully. They turned towards Haku only to see a poof of smoke and then nothing!
Hermione was more than intrigued and really wanted to put her search back on, but she made a deal with the gang that they would behave and try on their own free will to be friends with Haku. Kazuma however, just dubbed it as a shinobi thing.
Weeks later, Haku threw her needles accurately hitting a poor defenseless tree. Whatever did the tree do to her? The thing is absolutely nothing. Oh, no it was because of the morning sickness that creped in whenever it so pleased! Haku hated it! She couldn't eat, sleep, her clones didn't last long, and she couldn't train for no more than ten minutes without having to throw up.
Zabuza patted her back as they were in the forest. It was taking too long. When would their allies come?
The silent question Zabuza asked his lover/companion was answered when Haku staggered up. She wrinkled her nose as she smelled something foul and rubbed her temples. "Let's go back, Zabuza-san I…"
Zabuza didn't need to be told twice in fact was almost automatic how he would always usually pick her up bridal style if she was injured or something, but for the past few days not counting that only a few weeks passed since they came here- Haku has been feeling this way and he was highly surprised that the only ones who subtly knew were Hannah Abcott, that brat, Kazuma and subtly Hermione Granger. However, those three were not to worry over and he was thankful that the idiots in their shared room were complete idiots.
Hopefully, Zabuza scoffed they wouldn't have to stay for longer than they had to and the dang wizarding world would be without them. Hell he was regretting ever coming. "Brat, stay to watch," Kiba nodded.
They reached the Hufflepuff tower and the dorm. Zabuza placed Haku down and waited. However, a few minutes later a snake slithered in. Zabuza took the scroll and un-wrapped it.
"We received the message, Zabuza and we will come. No one messes with one of my patients! Get ready to strike."
Zabuza said no world just smiled diabolically. Kiba walked back in and shook his head, the man probably finally lost it. Or, it could just be that the fun was coming very soon.
The following morning the ministry came. Fudge demanded, "What is the meaning of this?"
Of course he received nothing more than a smile from Dumbledore and a greeting. Students sat at their tables no doing a thing as they were more intrigued with the minster's presence. Kuwabara on the other hand was practically about to jump out of his seat. Why? Because he received a hologram from Yusuke saying that they would arrive soon. The ex-delinquent couldn't wait to see his rival/ friend.
Back at the head table, Fudge gritted his teeth. He didn't know why the man was so happy. After all; shouldn't he be on alert? He had one of his order members in custody!
Dumbledore beamed, "We will prepare your room immediately," shock still silence. The minister was staying! Umbridge was the only one who was happy about this revelation. Now, she thought.
'I can prove myself farther now that the minister is present.'
Dumbledore continued, "Yes the minster has decided to enlighten us with his presence and will be staying here for a few days. Now," he clapped. "Let's have fun!" He sat back down and Fudge bristled inwardly. He was going to make sure Dumbledore fell and what better way than to let the staff and students watch.
"Please, Albus," the minister said with a frown looking towards the Hufflepuff table. "Do not tell me you've started a new requiem. You know the law," he growled. "So why is a kid here?"
"Ay," Dumbledore said as if he was chewing the most delicious sweet. "He is Harry Potter's son."
The minister and one of his men that tagged along gasped. So, the boy …was the girl's...? "Shall we go and discuss this more privately, headmaster?"
"I suppose," Dumbledore said standing. "It shall not be a problem."
The minster smiled pleased, but Snape nearly wanted to hex them all into the next dimension! How can the old-relic be so stupid? Didn't he take some heed? Apparently he did not.
'Fool,' Snape voiced snidely although it wasn't heard sadly.
It was the talk of the century that night and Ron couldn't believe it. Hell, whoever could? However, inside the common room Neville Longbottom, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and Kazuma Kuwabara sat comfortably, but the silence was broken when an owl hooted ferociously on the window. Ron seeing that it was one of the family owls went and retrieved the letter.
"Open it, mate," Neville said with confidence.
"Yeah, yeah don't rush me." Ron retorted.
Hermione leaned over her best friends shoulders. Neville was to Ron's left, but Kuwabara opted to sit on the recliner.
Ron read the letter.
Hermione inched away from Ron as if he was a flame and Neville looked absolutely livid next to Ron of course.
"Bad news," Kazuma grumbled getting up to take the letter before the Weasley threw it away.
"Throw it away!" Ron seethed.
A moment of silence, before Kuwabara spoke; "As much as I disagree with it and this Percy –
"He's no brother of mine," Ron seethed once more. "Just throw it away! There is no way I'm going to stop being friends with Hermione!"
"As I was saying," Kuwabara spoke as if he was never interrupted. "The rest I can't agree with, but Dumbledore..."
Neville spoke up defending. "Sure Dumbledore has a few screws lose, but we can't just stop trusting him! I... I mean he's the headmaster, the…"
"The strongest wizard..." Kuwabara said nonchalantly. "But, with power always come corruption." Then he threw the letter in the fire; tearing it up into pieces.
"Dumbledore's not like that!" Hermione shrieked picking up were Neville couldn't. "He's the savior of light!"
The protest went on deaf ears and Kuwabara plopped back in the recliner and started on his school. Why, shack off when he could show Yusuke what he could do?
Meanwhile in a certain Dungeon office a man name Snape was putting out a fire. He pinched the bridge of his nose. He was told information he already knew.
Haku however, wanted some weird cravings and Zabuza really wanted to scoot away. It wasn't because it was the most disgusting sight; seeing the plate filled with various types of food, but it looked purple! Food was not purple the last time he checked!
'Never again,' he swore to him-self. He wasn't going to get Haku pregnant ever again and what made it worse was that he had ten more weeks to endure. Now, just how were the wizards going to ignore that?
Surely they weren't that dense?
Zabuza doubted that, but then again they have yet to surprise him.
It was a lovely Tuesday morning and everyone was up and about however, the minister was still present and boy did he have an announcement to make. "Good morning to all," he started off friendly. "I have an announcement to make" even Dumbledore was intrigued apparently he didn't know of Fudge's little scheme.
"The ministry has declared and formed a new educational reform;" a pause as he had everyone's attention. Kuwabara and even the ninja's groaned the news couldn't be good. "The new 'High Inquisitor,' Dolores Umbridge."
Silence everlasting; utter and complete silence. The minster had to be joking!
However, that silence was broken by: "That'll happen when… HELL FREEZES OVER!"
N cut'! Who are the new quests? Is it their comrades? What will happen next? Now, you guys see that I purposely wrote last chapter like I did? Well, anyways the question asked in last chapter: What do you guys' want to happen with you? Yes, I still need to know after all; I can't read minds! Do what you guys do best! However, this is just rather exciting isn't it? I mean two up-dates back-to-back?
Well, until next chapter… I'm out!
