School seemed to go fairly well. Hermione and Fuu seemed to be good
competitors. Hikaru still stayed as innocent as herself while Umi tried to
adjust to life in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It was the
first friday of the first week in Hogwarts. The three had planned to visit
the grounds tomorrow and see the whole view of the school. For the morning,
they have Transfiguration classes. The students who were assigned to turn
matches into pins are still hard at work. Fuu had almost perfected turning
the match into a pin, but the pin still looked like a match turned into
silver. Hermione, on the other hand, turned it into a pin with the matches'
red head visibly seen. They are the few among their class who was able to
master it within a few days. Professor McGonagall seemed happy at the foreign
students who seemed to try their best in any way. Charms went also well,
Professor Flitwick is still making them practice the way they handle their
wands properly. Lunch came by and their last period, alas, was the dreaded
Potions with the terrifying Professor Snape. Today's lesson was brewing a
cure for boils. It was easy enough for Snape to snoop around and observe the
different colored potions that everyone's making. He had been praising
Malfoy, possibly his favorite student among the rest. Snape was not able to
say anything about the new japanese students, for they followed his strict
directions properly ignoring the faces he kept on throwing on them. Neville,
the round-faced boy whom they met at the train, was partners with Seamus
Finnigan. Somehow, they produced the wrong potion because it melted through
Seamus' pewter cauldron. It spread all over the floor, melting everything
in its path, while Neville was drenched in it. He fainted in front of the
class and his skin suddenly produced boils. The Gryffindors took pity of
poor Neville, while the Slytherins laughed at his accident. " Stupid lad! You
added porcupine quills to it!" Snape pointed angrily at him. "Take him to
the hospital wing!" he pushed both Neville and Seamus out of the dungeon with
one wave of his wand. He was now looking for someone to blame when his eyes
laid on Harry. "Potter!" he shouted "How come you did not tell him not to
mix it with porcupine quills?" he began teasing his favorite punch bag.
Harry just kept quiet. Ron had been telling him that Snape can blow
anytime like a bomb. The students left the dungeons when the period ended.
Umi walked to Harry and asked him "Harry, how come he hates you so much?"
"I don't know, I am also asking the same question to myself." Harry
caught up with Ron. "See you later."
"Bye." Umi went back to her group. "Snape seemed really mad. I
wonder, of all students, it had to be Harry to be put to the blame."
"I feel sorry too." Fuu walked alongside them. "I feel sorry for all
the students he torture emotionally. I wish I could have helped him."
"There is nothing that we can do, Fuu. All we can do is heal the
students fears again and again." Hikaru looked at the other two.
"Your right Hikaru, If there is something that we are good at, it is
helping others in need." Fuu brightened up.
"Then let's go wash up and eat dinner. I'm starved." Umi pulled the
other two. "Hurry up."
The three went to the Gryffindor House to change their attire. Going
down the stairs they met Harry's group walking a different direction from the
Great Hall. They were also curious and caught up with them. " Hey Harry,
where are you going?" Hikaru went alongside him.
"We are going to visit Hagrid." Ron answered them.
"Do you want to come along?" Harry looked at the three.
" Yes, if you'll allow us to. Will you?" Umi almost charmed Harry.
"Er- well, if you two also insist. I don't suppose Hagrid will be
angry."
"Yatta!" the three girls jumped.
They came to Hagrid's cabin. Strange scratching sounds were heard
from inside. The three alerted themselves, it might be something bad. But it
was not. It was actually Hagrid wrestling with his pet boarhound named Fang.
Inside, introductions were made. "Hagrid," Harry started "This is Ron,
Hikaru, Umi and Fuu." the conversation then drifted to the topic about Snape,
the Potions Professor. Harry's eyes later caught the Daily Prophet in his
sight. He read the story for the first time. " Hagrid! the date of the
robbery! It was on my birthday!" he became silent.
"Er- ferget about it Harry, it doesn't have nuthing to do in what
we did in Gringotts." Hagrid looked and the funny watch in his wrist. "Gosh,
look at ter time Harry, better be goin' ter the Great Hall for dinner." he
shoved his great big arm to move them out of his cabin. "Sorry Harry." and
he closed the door in front of them.
"What's his problem?" Ron stared at him. It seemed to him that he
knew something Harry had never told him. Harry did not answer back, he was
just quiet. He had that look that he was thinking very hard.
"I guess Harry was a bit surprised." Umi let her hand pass through
Harry's sight, he did not move."Harry!" she shook his small body. (after all
the three were a few years older.)
"Wha-What? Oh, sorry." he rubbed the back of his head. "Let's have
our dinner then." He lead them to the Great Hall.
=Next Morning=
Today is a saturday, their free day. Unlike in Japan, they spend
six days a week in school, but today the three decided to walk around the
grounds and exercise. Hikaru brought along her wooden sword, Fuu brought her
archery set, but Umi did not bring anything. All their items were stored in
their magical gloves. They then changed their attire. Hikaru wore her
traditional japanese clothing, Umi wore her usual favorite blue uniform, and
Fuu with her fave uniform also. They walked down into the common room and
passed through the Fat Lady, many eyes from the Common Room watched them
walking with such strange clothes. On the way down, they met Argus Filch, the
caretaker of Hogwarts." What in magic's name is this? Are you going into
some kind of masquerade party." he eyed them suspiciously.
"No Mr. Filch, these are our training clothes." Umi smiled. " It's
much easier to move then in our Hogwarts uniform."
"Then how come you three are walking slowly? Go on, faster or I'll
report you to Professor McGonagall."
"Ok! Ok! We're going!" Umi said as they scrambled faster to the
grounds.
Outside, the grass is green, and the sun is up. It feels like a
perfect day to practice. They were looking for a nice spot for practice.
"How about there, nearby the lake?" Hikaru pointed in that direction.
"Perfect," Fuu said "There's a nearby tree where I can hang the
target."
Hikaru started her meditation, it was always the first step for
excercising kendo. Fuu was hanging the target to the tree she indicated.Umi,
in the other hand, seemed jealous of what they were doing that she thought
of a way to exercise together with them. She brought out the rapier from her
glove and started an imaginary fencing duel with no one. Minutes had passed,
Fuu was already practicing her archery skils, so did Umi. Hikaru had now
finished her meditation and was now ready to initiate the second exercise of
kendo. She stood up, stretched her body, picked up her kendo sword and
took one step forward with a quick slash "Ha!" She stepped back once and
slashed the air. "Ha!" She kept on repeating and repeating,faster and faster.
Above them was Professor McGonagall's office. She had been speaking
to the Headmaster who came to ask about the improvement of the three foreign
girls under observation.She eventually heard the increasing voice of Hikaru
from her practice."What the?" she turned around 'such an early time for
students to fight.' "Excuse me, Headmaster." and walked to the nearest window
where the shout was heard. She was surprised that there was no fight at all.
It was only Ms. Shidou exercising.
"Interesting." Dumbledore was already beside her fascinated at the
three students exercising."We should make other students practice their
skills outside. Don't you think so too Minerva?"
"Yes, Professor Dumbledore sir. It seems like a brilliant idea then
making themselves just locked up in their houses." she joined in.
"I shall be going now Minerva, I have other businesses to attend to.
And keep the idea in mind." Dumbledore left her office.
She looked down at them from the window once more. The Professsor
of Transfiguration does not want to be disturbed. She called on to Hikaru
"Ms. Shidou, would you mind toning down your voice?"
Hikaru stopped and looked up at Professor McGonagall, so did the
other two. "I cannot Professor, for I need to remove my negative energy from
my body by doing this kind of exercise. The louder I shout, the more negative
ones come out of my body until it is replaced by positive ones."
'Its hopeless.' McGonagall thought.' I think I'll work in the library
for the meantime.' She went to her desk and drew out all her papers and went
to the library.
About nine o'clock they finished their exercises. It was quite
tiring, so they took a rest under the nearby tree.
"That was some kind of practice you have there Hikaru." Umi told
Hikaru."I've never seen anything like that before."
"Me too." Fuu wiped her glasses from perspiration. "That may explain
why you were good at using you sword in our first meeting."
"Awww." Hikaru was touched, she also blushed "That was nothing.My
training paid off."
"Say, why don't we duel each other?" Umi said her idea.
"Yes, then we can improve more of our sword skills rather then using
always our will." Fuu stood up. "I'd like to go first, who would be my
opponent?"
"I'll go." she stood up also. "Hikaru, you just rest there. You
seemed pooped from all that kendo stuff." She took ten steps away from
Hikaru. She looked around and drew out her rapier once more. Fuu did the
same. She took out hers, a long sword for one with a small build but it is
as light as a feather for her. Umi swished her sword and took her fencing
stance. " Ready Fuu?"
"Ready."
(The dramatic music begins)
"Hiyeah! Take that, and that" Umi kept on pushing her sword forward.
Fuu just swished her sword left and right to evade her attacks, she was
waiting for the right time to attack. She was nearing the edge of the lake.
She jumped high before Umi moved forward again her rapier."Huh?!?" she turned
around. Fuu was already about to slash her. Umi used her rapier as her guard,
intercepting Fuu's sword."Your quick, you almost caught me there, but your
not strong enough Fuu." She pushed her sword forward to make Fuu step back.
Still trying to push Umi in the opposite direction, she stried harder
but she was more stronger then she was. She leaped twice backwards." Not bad
Umi. Your not bad at all."
=Boys dormitory-Gryffindor House=
Their duel continued. From his room, Harry was feeding Hedwig, his
snowy owl. When out of the corner of his eyes, he saw them fighting. He
thought it was for real. He went downstairs and pulled Ron to their room.
Hermione also saw how urgent it seemed.
"Harry, slow down. What's wrong?" Ron tried to keep up.
"This is what's wrong." Harry took hold of Ron's head and slowly
turned it to the direction of the fight.
"Bloody. And I thought they were best friends. We've got to stop
them!"
"Stop who?" Hermione was itching to inside the boys' room, but she
was a girl. She entered anyway. She saw just in time Fuu hit Umi's shoulder
and they saw blood spill out.
"Come on! Let's go get Madame Pomfrey!" Harry grabbed the two.
=The Grounds=
"Sorry Umi, it was only an accident." Fuu gripped herself. Hikaru
ran to them.
"Forget about apologies. I'll forgive you when you heal me right
now because IT HURTS!" Umi said to Fuu.
"Winds of Healing!" Fuu chanted as Umi's body was lifted up and the
green ribbon-like winds went to the wound, slowly covering it and fixing
the slashed-through clothing. "I'm sorry." Fuu said again. "Is that better?"
"Yeah. Much better." Umi stood up and exercised the supposedly
wounded shoulder. She then returned her rapier into the glove. Fuu did too.
"I think it is time for us to cool out." Hikaru convinced her best
friends. "Besides, its already getting hotter."
"Your right Hikaru, we were both carried away." Fuu returned all her
items into her glove.
"Let's go up and take a bath." Umi said as she put both of her arms
over Hikaru and Fuu's shoulder. From one side, she looked liked she was being
carried by the two as they took the nearest steps to the Gryffindor tower.
They heard several sounds of people stepping downstairs. They looked
up and saw Harry, Ron, Hermione and a witch in a nurse's outfit. "Fuu!"
Harry called out. "Is she all right?" he pointed at Umi.
"What the heck are you talking about?" Umi blinked.
"What do you mean?" Fuu asked Harry.
"Didn't you have-that that wound." Ron pointed at Umi's healthy
shoulder.
"What wound?" Hikaru lied.
"When Fuu hit Umi with the sword!" Hermione exclaimed. Her mouth was
hanging down with astonishment.
"What ever are you talking about Hermione? We were only strolling
around the grounds." Fuu covered up the story.
"WHAT'S WITH ALL THAT RACKET?!?!" Snape came storming into the
staircase. "Potter, I thought so! What have you done now?"
" Yes, Harry I think you were hallucinating things." Madame Pomfrey
examined Umi." She's perfectly healthy."
"But we saw them!" Ron reasoned out.
"QUIET!" his black eyes scanned their faces.
"Don't tell me that story again! You pulled me out of my office for
nothing. Next time I will not likely believe you." Madame Pomfrey left.
" Five points from Gryffindor for disturbing my silence." Snape
smiled when he turned his back at them. 'Harry's been seeing things, I wonder
if its true? And students with swords, seems interesting' He left them once
more.
Utter silence fell on the group. " Sorry, I thought they were you."
Harry started walking upstairs back.
That incident made Harry, Ron and Hermione move afar them. They were
sure what they saw was real. They do not think their eyes were playing on
them. Something told them they were hiding something and they are very good
at it. The three also decided that they should be more careful then before.
They did not want it to happen again, and lose the trust of more friends.
After all, Harry was only trying to help. . .
