Chapter 4: Defense against Death

"Ah. What exactly do we need?"

"There is a list in your envelopes."

"Okay."

Sakura took out her letter and unfolded the list. She looked once then twice then she finally asked, "I need a pet?"

"Oh yes! You can have and owl, toad, or cat."

"Get a cat and you will never see it again." Muttered Cerberus.

"Oh hush Kero-chan. I think an owl is best anyway. And we need spell books as well?"

"That too. Along with a broomstick and wand. And you need to get ingredients for potions and robes and dress robes."

"Ah. Tomoyo-chan made Yue-san, Kero-chan, and me some traditional dress robes. Said she had a feeling I'd need them. I still need robes. Can we actually get all this here?"

"Yes, and even some more too. I think I better get you to buy a special hex book. It was written by Clow Reed himself."

"Really Eriol-tousan? That's cool."

"Why did you ask him?" Asked Hermione.

"Because he knows many things of old and long dead wizards."

"I see." Said Hermione, not really believing her.

The group walked up to Mme. Malkin's Robes for all Occasions. Sakura went in first.

"I presume you are here for Hogwarts?"

"Yes Ma'am. I'm new."

"I see. This way young lady."

Sakura went into the back room and was measured. To her surprise, she saw none other than Draco Malfoy himself. He looked over her coolly and raised his eyebrow.

"Are you new?"

"Yes. I'm an exchange student."

"From where?"

"Japan."

"Nice. What's your name?"

"Sakura desu, Kinomoto Sakura desu."

"What?"

"My first name is Sakura and my last name is Kinomoto. I was speaking Japanese to you."

"Oh. Are you a full blood?"

"What do you mean?"

"So you are a Mud Blood."

Unfortunately for Malfoy, Yue and Cerberus walked in at the word Mud Blood.

"How dare you accuse her of that?"

"Yeah! Just because she doesn't know doesn't make her a mix!"

"What's he talking about Kero-chan?"

"He called you the most insulting thing a witch can be called Mistress. His family is pure. Just looking at him, I know he's a Malfoy. In fact, he's Lucias Malfoy's son, Draco."

"Watch what you call my Mistress. I wont hesitate to curse you." Said Cerberus.

"Mistress? Why do they call you this?"

"Not that you deserve to know, but they are my guardians. They protect me from what I cannot."

"Who are you?"

They both looked to where Draco was asking. Eriol had appeared and was looking at Malfoy with anger in his Prussian blue eyes.

"I happen to be her father. Before you decide to insult my daughter, consider your options. 1. Be blasted through the roof, 2. Be reduced to a smoldering pile of ashes, 3. Becoming the 'Amazing Bouncing Ferret' once more!" As he spoke, his voice grew harder and louder.

Malfoy was at a loss for words. He opened and closed his mouth, succeeding in only looking like a guppy.

"Want to know how I know? I can read minds. Go be an insolent fool somewhere else and on some one else's time. I will not tolerate it!"

"Malfoy, do as he says. I'm warning you." Warned Harry as he turned the corner.

"Potter! You know these people?"

"Yes, and they are my family. Malfoy, Meet my father Eriol, and my sister Sakura."

"Also, meet my blood brother Yugi! He's from Japan too."

Malfoy couldn't get out of there fast enough. Harry was laughing all the while. Eriol looked rather smug and Yugi was feeling pleased.

"Did you see his face?" Laughed Harry.

"I sure did. Gee, never knew anyone could hightail it out of there that fast. Except of course Syaoran-kun around Sakura-chan or Yukito-san." Said Tomoyo peeking around the corner.

"Tomoyo-chan! How are you?" Asked Sakura; She ignored the fact that Syaoran had been mentioned.

"I'm fine. Me and uncle Severus are here getting my books." As if on cue, Snape walked in. He glared at Harry and Sakura.

"Uncle Severus!" Tomoyo cried, latching on to his arm.

Harry stared with his mouth open. Nobody he knew wanted to even get near Snape with a 10foot pole! This was an event.

"Hello Professor Snape. Please meet my father Eriol and my twin sister Sakura."

Totally surprising everyone, Snape smiled and shook Sakura and Eriol's hand.

"It's a pleasure Sakura, Mr. Potter."

"Oh! I'm Eriol Hiiragizawa. Please call me Eriol."

"My apologies. I'm glad to finally meet you."

"I trust that Dumbledore has told you of our complications and ages, and my past."

"Yes, he has. I'm sorry, but we must be going. Tomoyo insisted on making her own robes and we have things to buy. See you at Hogwarts."

"Bye! See you later Tomoyo-chan, Snape-sensei."

Sakura, Harry and the rest of the group wandered around Diagon Alley for the remainder of the day. When they were done, they went to Eriol's house. Mrs. Weasely kept insisting that they go back to the Burrow, but Eriol wouldn't hear of it. He brought them in and served some tea. Sakura, Harry, Cerberus, and Yue all went to their rooms and put their stuff away. Later, they would find their rooms decorated the way they wanted, by magic. Sakura's room was in varying shades of pink and looked like her old room crossed with Tomoyo's. Harry had a room with many books and most of the things were black and green. Cerberus had a black and red room with a huge television and every videogame imaginable. Yue's room was very white. It had very soft shades of blue and very nice silver lamps. He sat on his bed and folded his robes for the twentieth time as well as the others were. Yugi was sitting with Sakura and they were chatting. They mostly talked about school or other such things in rapid Japanese.

The days passed in rapid succession with the Weasely's visiting everyday. Finally, September first rolled around the bend. The house was a flurry of panic. During the long wait, Sakura, Yue, and Cerberus had learned all the spells they would need, and more. It was expected that since Voldermort had returned to power, that they would need to sharpen their skills.

At platform 9 ¾, the students and Eriol said goodbye to the Weasely adults. The ride was rather uneventful, and nobody bothered Sakura or Yugi. They would be seen at the sorting. Sakura was grooming her blue owl. It had been strange and Sakura wanted it. Yugi got a phoenix. Sakura and Yugi's wand fitting had been rather odd.

FLASHBACK

Sakura and the gang walked into Ollivander's Wand Shop. Harry was about to warn them about a tape measure coming to measure them, but it didn't come. Instead, Mr. Ollivander himself came out. He looked at Sakura, then Yugi. After a moment he asked for the Millennium Items. To say the least, they were both surprised. They handed them over and touched a corner of each item. A piece of the gold came off and changed into a golden thread. Ollivander pulled out two ash sticks and pulled out his own wand. The threads intertwined and melted into one. Then they split back into two hairs. The sticks were now wands. Ollivander put the cores in and then gave them to Yugi and Sakura.

"These wands are brothers now. I feel that you two are close, maybe even siblings. These wands were personalized for you and you are the only ones who can use them. Don't let anyone else use it, or they could get hurt." He said handing back their Millennium Items.

END FLASHBACK

When they arrived at the school, Yugi and Sakura both went with the first years and Hagrid across the lake. Sakura followed Yugi up the stairs and into the Great Hall. Professor McGonagall read out the names and came to Sakura's name.

"Kinomoto, Sakura."

Sakura walked up, aware of all the stares she was getting. She sat on the stool and put the hat on.

///Yes. A great young mind. I see hardships and many good things. Your heart is pure and you have a lot of courage. I have no choice but to put you in.///

"GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled. Sakura released the breath she didn't know she was holding.

At the middle of the list was Yugi.

"Motou, Yugi."

He went up and sat down.

///I see that you have two spirits in you young man. One is light, the other dark. Are you aware of this? ///

/Yes. /

///You would make a great Slytherin. but I will put you in.///

"GRYFFINDOR!" The hat yelled again.

Yugi sat next to Sakura and waited for the sorting to finish. When it was done, Dumbledore stood up.

"As you are aware of, we have two new fifth years joining our numbers today and for the rest of the year. Please make them feel welcome and help them when you can. I advise you not to go into the Forbidden Forest and you may not use magic in the corridors. Now that that is said, let us eat!"

After the meal, they went to bed. In the morning, Sakura awoke and looked at her timetable. She had Defense Against the Dark Arts with Slytherins first. Eriol hadn't been sorted because of his reincarnation. He would only follow Sakura around to make sure she was okay. After getting dressed and eating, she found herself in a dungeon. Everyone seated them selves. Sakura, Harry, Yugi, Ron, and Hermione all sat next to each other around a large table. There was a bit of chatter until the door opened and a black robed figure glided in. A hush settled across the room and even Malfoy was quiet for once. The figured head was unseen as they had a hood. The only thing they could really see was a golden and green scythe. She was holding it behind her back. Harry was starting to fell cold. At first he thought it would be a protector of Azkaban, but the hood came off. A beautiful woman was revealed. She had cat ears on the top of her head and a cattail. Both of which were black. Her skin was a tanned cream color and her eyes were amethyst. They were so bright that they glowed. She had long black brown hair in a braid. She pulled off the rest of the cloak to reveal a curvy body and a black bodysuit. She had a silver sword on her back and a few daggers at her hips. On each leg, she had a trident and ankle daggers. On each shoulder was a chortel. At her hips next to the daggers were golden guns. She had fine body armor and that was silver and adorned by amethyst and cobalt gems. She smiled at the students and walked up to the chalkboard. After pulling out her wand, she pointed at it and muttered a few words. Something appeared on the board and she finally spoke.

"I am Shinimegami. Call me Professor Shini or Professor Maxwell. I am your new defense against the dark arts teacher."

The class burst into applause and she blushed. Sakura raised her hand.

"Yes Kinomoto-san?"

Sakura was surprised she knew her name. "I was wondering why you said you were the Goddess of Death."

"Ah. Very good question dear. I am Shinimegami. I am the Goddess of Death. Call me what you will. I will try not harming any of you, but I can't promise anything. If you piss me off, I can kill you. You can't stop me from doing my work. And don't worry, it takes a lot to piss me off."

The students were looking a little scared.

"This is my Millennium Scythe. Call her Death Scythe Hell. My sword is the sword of death. I advise you not to touch either of them with out me around, for they are cursed. Now, Kinomoto Sakura and Motou Yugi, please come down here."

The two students went down from their front seats and stood in front of Shinimegami.

"You both have Millennium Items do you not?"

"Yes." The both said cautiously.

Suddenly, both Yami and Yin Fa appeared.

"What do you want them for?" Asked Yin Fa.

"You cannot have them!" Yelled Yami.

"Whoa! Take it easy. I'm not here to take them. I just wanted to see you two. I see that you don't remember me. Well, do you at least remember my Scythe?"

"Why would we?"

"It's the Millennium Scythe! I thought you two would know."

The door opened and in walked a boy with black hair and brown eyes.

"Sorry I'm late."

"Xiao-lang!" Cried Yin Fa, running to him. When she reached him, they both went back to their original forms.

"Syaoran! Where have you been? Why didn't you write?" She sobbed.

"Sakura! I'm so sorry! The elders of the Li-clan wouldn't let me write! I tried to owl you, but they weren't allowed to! Oh Kami-sama Sakura! Can you forgive me?"

Sakura reached up and kissed him full on the mouth. They ignored the class and got lost in their own little world. Shinimegami was looking at them with happy tears in her eyes. She quickly wiped her eyes and tapped Syaoran's shoulder.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your little make out session, I really am, but we have a class."

"Gomen-nasai Sensei!" They said at the same time.

"Don't worry, I don't mind. Just give Yin Fa and Xiao-lang some time with each other."

"Yes Sensei!"

The three kids went back to the front row seats. Shinimegami summoned up a chair for Syaoran.

"Now, since I am teaching you how to defend against the dark arts, I will introduce your dark arts teacher. He will be in this classroom every night. You must attend the first week. Next you don't have too, but you should attend. He will teach you how to attack with the dark arts. This is because you all well know that Voldermort is alive again, and he is at full power. If you want to be able to help, then I suggest you try your hardest."

Malfoy shot his hand up.

"Yes Mr. Malfoy?"

"If you are the Goddess of Death, then why don't you kill him?"

"Excellent question Draco. I cannot interfere with you humans. I am only allowed to kill those who are about to die. I actually only escort them, but sometimes my husband lets me kill one or two. He actually follows the people who are about to die, and he raises his Death Scythe Hell Custom and swings. All he does is tear the souls away from the body and put them in a pouch. At the end of the day, he empties them into the gates of Heaven or Hell."

Most of the boys groaned or hit themselves when she announced that she had a husband.

Malfoy again raised his hand.

"Yes Draco?"

"What do you mean by 'you humans'?"

"Another great question dear. I award ten points to Slytherin." The Gryffindors looked at her like she was mad. "I am not in any way human. I am ¼ Saiya-jin and ¾ Neko-jin. My family is as pure as a wizarding family can get, but we are not human. Can an one tell me about both my races?"

Hermione raised her hand.

"Yes Ms. Granger?"

"A Saiya-jin is a human looking person with a tail. They have black hair with different color tints and only long hair is not spiked upward. A Neko- jin is a cat type person. The have cat like tails and ears. They are very agile."

"Very good Ms. Granger. I give you ten points. However, you forgot that Saiya-jin's have super strength and have the ability to go Super Saiya-jin. Neko-jins are very strong as well, but not as strong as a Saiya-jin. I am glad you know some of your magical species."

A couple hands went up.

"Yes Seamus?"

"Do you have the ability to go Super Saiya-jin?"

"As a matter of fact I do. I'm one of the few ¼ Saiya-jins that can. Most have lost too much Saiya-jin blood."

To demonstrate, she powered up. Her hair turned a golden color and her eyes blue. She walked up to one of the student tables.

"Can all of you please sit on the table?"

Every one did. After a few seconds, she lifted the table above her head with her pinky. Every one looked at her in awe. She carefully set it down and dropped out of Super Saiya-jin.

"Does any one know the different levels of a Saiya-jin?"

"Malfoy? Granger?"

"Oozaru form and Super Saiya-jin." Said Malfoy smugly.

"After Super Saiya-jin, there is Ascended and then the third level where you grow brow ridges and loose the eyebrows and grow long hair, then there is level four. This is where you grow fur on your chest and your hair is in the original style, but longer. After that, there is the Golden Oozaru form. Just like the normal Oozaru, except you get gold fur and are stronger."

"Very good, both of you. I award your houses twenty points. But, you forgot something else Mr. Granger. The Golden Oozaru form comes before level four. It is a fact not well known to many people. The only pure blooded Saiya-jins are Son Goku, or Kakarotto and Vegeta no Ouji. Vegeta is my prince. Please remember this because you will need this on a pop quiz later this week. A person named Freezer blew up our home planet. Does any one know what he was?"

Nobody put his or her hands up.

"Freezer was an Ice-jin." She shivered. "He was a changeling. He had a few forms. His last was the most powerful. This guy is the bastard that killed Vegeta. Later, the Dragon Balls were collected and we wished them all back. Does any one know what the Dragon Balls are?"

Yami put his hand up.

"Yes Yami. I mean Yugi?" She said with a wink.

"When all seven of the Dragon Balls are gathered, the Eternal Dragon Shenlong is summoned and will grant two wishes. He used to only grant one wish, but Dende remade him and used his connection with Purunga to help. The original set of Balls is on Namek-sei. When Kami came to Chikyu-sei, he made his set."

"Very good Yugi, ten points for you. Next day for you, I will have a few guests. You'll like them all. Some will be Saiya-jin and some will be Namek-jin. You never know with me. Class dismissed. Oh and please do attend the Dark Arts class after school. This is the spot."

The class filed out and chatted the whole way. They would have a lot to talk about later that night in the Common Room. A teacher with no favorites!

So, how was that? I hope you liked it. The person named Shinimegami is I! I get to be in my own story! Later, I introduce the others. Any way, I guess I made it a DBZ crossover now too! Jeez! I can't believe what my demented little mind is telling me. Heh. See you in the next chapter
