Who's Cousin?!

Chapter 3:Attending Hogwarts
Makoto, Ami, Usagi, Minako, and Rei walked up to the train station in London.Quickly grabbing
their black cloaks about their bodies, they blend in with the crowd heading towards the stop.
"Are you absolutely sure we're suppose to be at nine and three-quaters?"Ami asks glancing arounded
rather worried.
"Yes, the paper says, Stop nine and three-quaters,"Makoto says looking around,"but I still don't see..."
Just then a boy with red hair disappears a few feet in front of them, behind him is a large trunk and a small
owl.
"Nani don't see?"Minako asks curiously looking around.
"Makoto!"suddenly a familiar voice shouts, instantly the group of five girls whirl around to see Harry and Hermonine
running towards them,"Makoto!"
"Harry!"Makoto shouts happily engulfing the boy in a large hug,"How have you been?Hi Hermoine."
"Hi minna-chan,"the girl smiles happily.
"You speak Japanese?"Ami asks curiously.
"Iie, I'm still learning and now I can really practice,"the little witch smiles.
"Yatta,"Usagi smiles happily,"then you can help me get a few midnight snacks?"
"Oh Odangta Atama, you and your bottomless stomach,"Rei mutters.
Um...Harry,"Makoto asks sheepishly,"demo where is the nine and three-quaters stop?"
"Oh it's right over here, hidden from people who don't have magic,"Harry explains pointing to the spot where
a red head girl just vanished to,"We better hurry or else we'll miss the train."
"Hai,"Minako smiles happily,"This is sooo exciting! And reminds me of the old days. Where's Artimis?"
"Right here Minna-san,"both cats announce in unison appearing out of Ami and Makoto's bags,"Can we get
out of these things yet?"
"Not unless you would be prefer the cage,"Usagi smiles happily instantly the cats quit complaining. The
group walks through the barrier and stops in front of the Hogwarts' Express.
"Wow!"Usagi states in awe.
"What Usagi-san it's just a train,"Rei mutter annoyed as they place all their trunks into the car.
"Iie, it's just that I just realized that I'm not going to be able to see Mamo-chan for a whole four months,"she
sniffles then a quick grin spreads on her face,"But I don't have to put up with Chibi-usa until this entire ordeal
is over! HAHAHAHAHAHA!" The other senshi look at their leader with sweatdrops and chuckle nerviously.
"Do you think she finally cracked?"Minako whispers to Makoto.
"I think so,"the taller senshi states firmly as they arrange themselves in the seating area.
"Well we better be going to find Ron,"Harry states,"He can't wait to meet you."
"You guys can sit with us if you like,"Makoto smiles clamly.
"Who would ever want Potter sitting with them,"a seaning voice hisses. Instantly the girls whirl to see another
boy with blonde hair.
"Back off Marloy,"Harry glares ratther annoyed, this did not go unnoticed by the cousin(of course).
Makoto's eyes became icy and started to bore into the boy's soul, then a quick smirk appeared on her
lips as she replied,"Well, who are you suggestting we hang out with? YOU?HAHAHA don't make me laugh."she
turns her back on the boy facing Harry then giving a quick wink asking,"Well minna should I start the year of
by pounding another boy or should i wait til after or during the school year?"
"Hmmm,"Ami states holding her chin,"the one in the beginning of the school year ended up in a coma
for the rest but he was someone you knew."
"Hai, that's true,"Rei states,"demo the mid-term "accident" made the kid land the hospital for two months."
"True True,"Minako mutters,"demo the one at the end of the was six-feet under but he sexually harrasssed you."
Instantly the four other girls stare at their blonde friend then sighs heavily, within seconds later the sounds of
fast retreating footsteps was heard on the train and the other boys were nowhere to be seen.
"What do you know,"Usagi blinks.
"It actually worked,"Makoto smirks happily as they sit themselves down,"You can go Harry if you want, it doesn't
matter."
"After what I just saw!"Harry shouts in amazement,"I'm getting Ron then getting him here so we can tell him!"With
that the young hero runs off to find his friend.
***
"What!"Ron shouts in amazement,"No way!"
"Oh it's nothing big,"Makoto states sighly waving it off.
"Oh could you let me miss Darco Marloy getting told off!"Ron shouts at Harry.
"We were just gonna run off and find you,"Hermonie replies,"but you insisted on running after your sister."
"Shut up Hermonie,"Ron growls, while the older girls giggle slightly.
"So Harry what's Hogwarts like?"Makoto ask curiously.
"Well why don't you look outside for yourself?"Harry states, instantly the five girls gather around the window as
the mysty mountain fourtrase came into sight.
"OOOOO, it looks like a fariy tale castle,"Usagi says starry eyed, the other girls chuckle at their friend.
Smoothly the Hogwarts Express pulled into the station causing instant haoic as people rushed off
the express and onto the platform. The curious forgein students stared upon the large man as the new years
were ushered into the coaches for their trip accross the lake. Quietly the five girls looked rather lost standing
as the older students were forced into carriages that took them directly to the mansive school.
"Kino-sama!"a familiar voice shouts, instantly the tall burnette whirls in the direction of the voice to find
a woman walking with a black cloak on.She smiles saying,"I'm presuming you are the five transfer students."
"H...I mean yes,"Makoto says in broken english,"I'm am Makoto Kino and these are my friends."
"Usagi Tuskino, Ami Mizuno, Rei Hino, and Minako Anio,"the teacher states reading from a scroll in her
hands,"Could you please follow me so we can get you sorted into the proper houses."
"Sorted?"Rei asks looking at Minako curiously. The blonde only shrugs as they follow the woman into a
carriage, loading all their trucks on top.
***
In a dark section of a room, a figure is hunched over a pile of books and scrolls. In the corner is
a glass cage with a rooted tree inside but there is nothing inside the cage alive. The sound of scribbles
echoes through the stuffy office. There's a knock, instantly the cloaked head looks up at the door
stating,"Enter."
"Oh my lord,"a nervous voice states hurrily closing the door behind him,"I have news from Hogswarts."
"Really,"the voice seems to grin in amusement,"Well let's see what our dear headmaster has cooked up
for us in attempt to protect Mr. Potter."
"It says right here that there are going to be 5 transfer students from Japan,"the hubble servant states handing
The Daily Prophet wizard paper to a hand beneathe the cloak.
"Interessssting,"the master's voice hisses reading the article,"Five new transfer students from Japan, two
from well known wizard families, Kino and Hino."There's a slight pause,"Kino, Makoto is the second cousin of
Harry Potter and lost her family at a young age being raised by muggles. Well isn't that a pitty."
"What m'lord?" the servant asks nervousily.
"The Kinos and Potters would have been such a powerful allance but then they refused my offered and now
their children have to follow in their footsteps,"the master smirks then snaps,"Go and see if you can anything
else useful to do."
"Y-Yes m'lord,"the stuttering continues until the door to the office is shut, leaving the hunched figure smirk.
A long snake slithers along the papers, stopping at it's master's hand as he gently strokes it's head. The figure
speaks horsely,"Well, what do you think my pet? Hm...should we give the Kino's daughter a chance at joining
MY deatheaters or should we just let her become your lunch?"The snake replies with a long hiss, echoing
through the poorly light study.
***
Makoto looks around nervously as they stand in front of a large door, the entrance to the dining hall.
Glancing at the teacher who had taken them from the train, Professor McGonagull,(Hey I can't spell ok and I forget
some stuff so give me a break) then at Ami who seemed to be amazed at the entire experience. Usagi was hiding
behind Rei cause the large hallways were scareing her. Rei was staring at the painting amazed how they were actually
alive. Minako was attempted to turn around and run screaming bloody murder cause she was actually going to be
facing more fans like Hermonie once she entered the room. After a moment of what seemed to be just staring at the
door, the Professor opened the door walking inside. Instantly all eyes seemed to turn onto the five girls as they walked
to the center of the hall.
"Now you're going to be sorted into the four different houses I was talking about,"the professor states clamly as she
points to the hat that was sitting on a stool in front of all.
*Shit, I knew I should have been listening*Makoto cursed to herself glancing at Ami hoping for an escape. Her blue
hair friend just smiled trying to feel comfortable.
"Anio Minako,"the hat spoke. Instantly the burnette stared at the hat blinking in disbelief.
"I can handle talking cats, so hell wny not talking hats too," Usagi mutters to Makoto as Minako sat down in front
of the body of students.
"Hm,,definatly a leader, protector too and I know where you will go young lady,"the hat mutters on top of Minako's
head,"Gryffindor!"the hat screams. Instantly the tall girl looks over to see her cousin waving her over, she glances
back at her friends smiling and nodding in hope of being in the same house.
"Rei Hino,"the house shouts, with grace the black hair girl sits down placing the hat on top.
"Hm,,, insteresting indeed,"the hat smiles,"Mystics and studies you are strong like your mother. Duty and honor
always important as well so therefore you should go to," Rei winces as she waits hearing, "Ravenclaw!" Her face
is shocked as her new house shouts in cheer. Softly she smiles at the remaining three, taking a seat on the
edge hoping for at least one of her friends. She glances over at Minako mouthing,"Gomen." The sorted blonde smiles
waving and giggling as "Ami Mizuno" is called up to the stool.
"Hm....extremely intelligent,"the hat mutters,"you wish to be with friends, so go to Ravenclaw!"The blue hair girl sighs
with relief as she takes a seat next to Rei, then waving over at the blonde also mouthing,"Gomen."
"Tuskino Usagi,"the hat shouts next, instantly the blonde is knocked out of her daydream of Mamour and stumbles to
the stool. The people giggling slightly, but her protectors glare at the laughing house called Slytherin. As soon as the
hat was placed between the two odangos it screamed,"Gryffindor!" Instantly the blonde happily runs over to Minako
hugging her hysterical.
"Makoto Kino,"the hat shouts, instantly Makoto felt all eyes on her but she shrugged it off as she walked to stool, smirking
at her friends as the hat jumped onto her head.
"My My Kino, I haven't heard that name in a long time,"the hat states,"Mother was Hugglepuff, father from Ravenclaw, but
you my dear seem to be a protector, powerful, and intelligent. So Slytherin!"
The world seemed to go dead, Makoto blink in shock staring at the body of students. Her friend's just as shocked
as her but still smiling. Next to her cousin's table the Slytherins were cheering loudly.Quietly, she stood up smiling at Harry
before sitting down silently at the end of the table. Instantly she felt a pair of smirking eyes fall on her but she ignored it. The
sorting continued for another half hour of new first year students.
