The Purpose of Life
Discovery of Skills
"Look Harry, Lupin is back." Ron exclaimed between a mouthgul of food.
"Please chew with your mouth closed, that is disgusting." Hermoine said, turning her head away is disgust.
A groggy Usagi made her way to the Gryffindor table and sat down with a thud next to Harry. She looked over her schedule and a puzzled expression adorned her face.
"Do you need help?"
"Thank you Hermoine."
"No problem, well lets see, first you have double potions and then advance flying: acrobatics and then care for magical creatures. You have the same schedule as the three of us. Are you a fifth year?"
"Yes."
"But how?" Ron questioned.
"In my acceptance letter it said I had the power and experience of a fifth year and that I would be taking other classes to catch up on the first four years of schooling."
"Okay, come on we should head to the dunegons, we don't want to be late for Potions."
Silently they walked through the hallways, Usagi fiddled with her fingers and looked at the floor. What if I don't know what to do? What if I make a mistake and everyone laughs? What if the professor hates me? What if he's mean? I am afraid. No, no Usagi you can't be. You are a Malfoy, Malfoys never get scared. But I'm not a real Malfoy. I am a Ream, everyone knows who they were and what they were like, but I don't. Ron knows more about my parents then I even do.
"Usagi, Usagi we are here." Hermoine waved her hand in front of Usagi's face.
"Huh, oh sorry I kind of dazed out of it. What did you just say?"
"I was saying we are here."
"Oh."
"Come on, we need to get inside before…" The two stepped in and met a very unhappy Professor.
"Why are you two late?"
"We were just…" Hermoine tried to think of something, she didn't want to blame it on Usagi, it was her first day.
"It was my fault professor." Usagi said, dropping her head to once again look at the floor.
"Your fault?"
"I started thinking about things and Hermoine was trying to get my attention that we had already arrived to your classroom and if we didn't get inside we would be late, but it took me a while to get out of my daze and when we walked in, you were standing here and we were late. I am sorry, I didn't want to screw up my first day and I already did."
"Didn't anyone every teach to look at the person you were talking to?" Snape replied in a strong tone.
Usagi slowly lifted her head and look at Snape, he gasped slightly starring at her.
"I am sorry professor."
"You must be Elizabeth's daughter, you have her eyes."
"Elizabeth?"
"If you are a Ream then your that was your mother's name."
"I never knew my parents and I barely knew that my original last name was Ream. I am now a Malfoy and that's what I'll stay." Usagi said in a stern voice.
Snape turned slightly, "Your sister sure has spunk Malfoy." He turned back to Usagi. "What house are you in?"
"Gryffindor."
"What a shame, what a shame. You would have done well in Slytherin. Now sit down. Granger what are you looking at?"
"Nothing Professor, nothing at all."
"Five points from Gryffindor for lying."
"But professor…" Hermoine started.
"Don't make me make it ten."
Hermoine took a seat next to Ron, who blushed slightly. Usagi saw that and knew that she would set them up by the end of the year. She took the empty seat next to Malfoy who gave a stern look then a small smile.
"Going soft are we Malfoy?" Snape asked.
"No, professor, not at all."
"Just checking."
The rest of the class was unadventful. Malfoy helped Usagi with most of their potion, Snape awarded points to Slytherin for their potion, but didn't take points nor give any to Gryffindor. Through out the entire class Snape kept looking towards Usagi, she had caught him staring once or twice. Inside she couldn't take it anymore. When class ended she stormed out of the room and to the dormitories to get her broom for the next class. She rushed outside and was one of the first of the students to arrive. Soon after Ron, Harry and Hermoine came running out of the castle.
"We have be running after you since potions ended. What's wrong?" Hermoine asked panting.
"Nothing, Snape was just annoying me."
"What did he do?" Ron looked at her.
"He kept, staring me, it…it was creepy."
"He reminds you of your mother."
"I never knew my mother, how would I even know what she was like. She was never in my life, nor was my father and the person who did raise, wound up in an insane assylum when I was eight! I spent almost a half of year in an orphanage, I was looked at like a freak and then I was adopted by the Malfoys. They took me in when no one else would. They are the only family I've got, I don't want to remind people of a mother who I wouldn't even call mine." Usagi screamed and tore away the shocked expressions of Ron and the others. They were so shocked by her out burst, it was not like how Usagi normally acted. She had been so cold. Usagi had stormed off and stood next to Goyle who place an arm around her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her.
Two people looked on a jealously burned in their eyes. Get your hands off my angel. Two people thought.
"Welcome to Advance Flying. Most of you already know me, I am the new flying teacher Oliver Wood, but you can all call me Wood. Now everyone has their broom, mount it and fly around in the area for a bit to warm up and refresh yourselves for those who have not flown in a while."
Everyone took off and started doing circles and plunges and tumbles in the air, but Usagi looked at her broom in question, Wood looked at her in curiousity.
"Well what are you waiting for?" He asked.
"Um, Professor, Sir…"
"Call me Wood," he interupted.
"Fine, Wood. I…I don't know how to fly. This is my first year here."
"Oh you must Usagi Malfoy."
"Yes, sir. That is me."
"Do you have your broom?"
"Yes, this was in my family's vault."
"Now put your hand over it and say 'up.'"
"Up." The broom shot up into Usagi's hand and she grasped the broom tightly.
"Now mount it, like this." Wood showed Usagi on his own broom.
Usagi did the same with her broom and then she looked up at Wood.
"Now, push off the ground and balance yourself out, lift only a little and I'll help you balance yourself out." Usagi did as she was told and Wood walked out to her and helped her balance out her broom and he moved her slightly towards the back of the broom. "Try to fly around a bit." Usagi cautiously took out, but after a few moments a memory of a time when she had done this before came to her and she gracefully flew around and did flips and tumbles. She soared up and down, she went past Malfoy who looked at her shocked. Usagi flew back down to Wood and smile at him.
"How did I do?"
"Great! That was your first time flying?"
"Yes."
"It was wonderful, Usagi."
"Thank you!" Usagi gave Wood a big hug and soon he returned the hug. Malfoy glared daggers at him for touching his sister and another person looked on in jealously.
"Now class, along with teaching you acrobatic flying, Dumbledore is allowing me to teach you some pointers on play qudditch (spelling?) and he is allowing me to also play real games using the field. I saw we build the teams and then have a turnement between all the teams."
"That sounds great."
"Wonderful."
"I can't wait." A few people screamed.
"Now as for the teams you will need seven people. If you play on your house qudditch team," Wood said glancing at Harry and Malfoy, "You may not play that position in your team. Now there are fourty-two of you (I needed a number that would divide by seven and there would an even amount of teams.) Should we play with solid house teams or mixed teams?"
"Solid!" Everyone screamed.
"Mixed." One small voice said.
"Who wanted mixed?" A pudgy Slytherin boy asked.
"I did, I want to be on my brother's team."
"But aren't in Slytherin Usagi?"
"No, Wood, I am in Gryffindor."
"Well I guess you can if you want. There is one more Gryffindor than Slytherin anyway. Lets make team captains. Malfoy, Harry, Elizabeth, Stephanie, Peter, Blaine."
The six called stepped forward and stepped a distance away from each other.
"I want Usagi." Malfoy said.
"Ron." Harry gestured to his friend.
"Eric." Eric stood next to Elizabeth.
"Lyssa." Stephanie called out.
"Jamie." Jamie stepped next to Peter and he draped his arm over her shoulder. Everyone knew that they were going out.
"Cliff." Blaine said.
And so that continued and the final teams were:
Slytherin Team One: Malfoy, Usagi, Crabbe, Goyle, Cadillia, Loyd and Kayden. They called themselves the Silver Serpents. The positions were; Usagi: Seeker, Malfoy: Keeper, Crabbe and Goyle: beaters, and Cadillia, Loyd and Kayden were the chasers.

"Those are the teams, we will start the games next time, but for now lets test out our seekers. All seekers please mount your broom and fly to the center of the field."
All those playing the position of seeker flew out to the field, the rest of the class followed and stood below on the side lines. Wood walked forward with the qudditch box, he opened it up and released the snitch.
"Now, everyone count to ten and then go after it, remember you don't have buldgers to worry about."
Usagi looked around, a determine look on her face. She saw Jamie start flying somewhere and she darted after her, the two were neck and neck, the others trailing behind them, they couldn't match the speed of the two. All of a sudden Jamie wasn't going after the snitch, but was tricking everyone else. She veared to the right and then saw it, the golden snitch. Everyone was wondering what she was doing, she was flying the other way, towards the goal posts, she reached out to grab the snitch in front of her, but when she looked at the on coming goal post in front of her, it was too late. She collided with the golden ring and fell all the way to the sand below. She had the snitch grasped tightly in her left hand. Everyone rushed over to her, but before they could reach her, the sky blackened.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know."
With out warning a cloaked figure stepped out a portal and advanced toward Usagi, they picked her up quickly and dissapeared back into the portal.
"Usagi! NO! Come back her, BRING HER BACK!" Malfoy screamed out, collapsing to the ground below him. Crabbe and Goyle bent down to his level. Harry felt a pain of sorrow for him, but also for himself.
"Usagi." Harry softly whispered. I could never tell you that I liked you. I will always leave a part of my heart open to you.
"No." Wood was befuddled, his first day and this happened. Usagi, even though you were, no you are a student, I…I had feelings for you. I haven't known you long, but there is something about you I can't put out of my mind.
But no matter what anyone said or did, the portal closed and did not open again. Usagi was gone.
