Prologue: The 2nd movie never happened and Syaoran never told Sakura he loved her. Eriol went back to England and he'll be in the story, too. I'm adding stuff because they're going to be in the 5th year and of course the 5th book hasn't come out.
What's a Hogwarts?
By: Keri (aka: Li Blossom)
Chapter 1: We're going where?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Kaijiu, wake up! Tomoyo's on the phone!" Touya yelled upstairs.
"Okay!" Sakura shouted as she dragged herself out of bed. She was 15-years- old and still not used to waking up before noon on the weekends.
"Ohayo." She said grumpily.
"Oh Sakura did I call at the wrong time?" said the other end.
"I just woke up. So what do you want."
"Did you check your mail? I got the weirdest letter. It says something about going to a school in England."
"Really?" Sakura said going through a stack of letters.
"To study magic!" Tomoyo exclaimed.
"You're kidding, right?"
Then Sakura picked up a letter that radiated some sort of magic. She blinked and dropped it. On the cover it said: To Sakura Kinomoto in Tomeda, Japan, second room on the second floor.
Then her phone rang. "Hold on, I have someone on the other line."
"Konnichiwa?" Sakura said.
"Sakura?" Said the stranger.
She blushed. "Hey Syaoran-chan."
He didn't usually call her, more like never.
"Did you get a letter from Hogwarts?"
"What's a Hogwarts?" (AN: Now you see where I got the title from?)
Syaoran sighed annoyed and said. "It's a school in England that teaches magic. The headmaster, Professor Dumbledore, has asked me to attend his school. I'm pretty sure you got one too."
Sakura picked up the letter and carefully opened it.
Dear Sakura Kinomoto,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You will be attending 5th year, because of your advanced skills. Since you are in a foreign region, we have an airline ticket enclosed from the Tokyo Airport to London, England, where one of our professors will personally pick you up. Also have enclosed you with a ticket to Platform 9¾ in London. Attached to this letter is a list of the material you will need.
Sincerely,
Headmaster Albus Dumbledore
She blinked. "Is this a joke?"
"I called my mother and she gave me permission to go."
"Nani?."
"The letter looks real enough to me."
"Hmm… I'll have to ask Otou-san, I don't think Oni-chan will let me go, though."
"I'll talk to you later, bye."
"Ja ne." –He'll talk to me later? Did I just imagine that part?-
*click*
"Hey Sakura, who was that?" Tomoyo asked.
"Oh just Syaoran-chan. He's going too."
"Really? Are you going? You have to! So I can videotape you two. It'll be so kawaii!" Tomoyo squealed.
Sakura held the phone away from her ear, so her eardrums wouldn't break. "I'll call after I talk to Otou-san, okay?"
"Okay, ja ne! I'll start making dress robes today!"
"Ja ne."
*click*
Sakura let out a long breath. –Here goes.-
Her father was in kitchen reading the morning newspaper. "Yes honey?"
"uh…" she bit her lip. She couldn't leave her dad alone, when Touya was leaving for America in three weeks.
"Sakura, before you say anything, I have to tell you something. I've signed up for an expedition in Asia. We'll be looking for an ancient city in the mountains. I'll take maybe a year or two. I can't take you with me. So I'm letting you decide. Touya and Yukito have offered to take you to California and Mrs. Daidouji offered to take you in."
Sakura couldn't believe her luck. "Well, actually Otou-san, I got a letter today accepting me to a school in England."
"England?" Touya asked. "In Europe?"
"They even sent me a plane ticket." She added quickly.
"Can I see the letter?" Fujitaka asked.
She obediently handed him the envelope.
"You've got to be kidding, Kaijiu." Touya said looking over the letter.
(AN: Okay they know all about the Sakura Cards and everything. Just to let you know.)
"It's real, Syaoran-chan even checked with his mom." Then she hit her head. –I said the S word.-
"WHAT! The gaki's going! Then you're defiantly not going!" Touya said with veins popping, (AN: Not really, just anime style.) "I'm not letting you go to the same school the gaki's going to ALONE!"
"Hey. What's with all the noise? I can't concentrate on my NEW video game." (AN: Give you one guess who that is. ^_^)
"The Kaijiu wants to go to school in England!"
"Really?" Kero looked with starry eyes. "You're going to take me, aren't you?"
"Of course." Sakura said eyeing her brother.
"Yay! I heard they have the best sweets!"
Everyone fell anime style.
Then her father spoke up. "Well, the ticket says the flight's in two days, so you better start packing."
"I can go?"
He nodded.
"Thank you, Otou-san" Then Sakura gave him a tight hug and ran upstairs with Kero flying along.
"How could you let her go?"
"Touya, I'm sure Sy-"
"the gaki"
"I'm sure he would take good care of your sister. They care very much for each other. It seems they may even lo-"
"Don't say it." Touya said covering his ears like a little kid.
"It's been five years and you still hold a grudge over him. Why don't you call a truce?"
"The day pigs fly."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So what's the name of the school?" Kero asked curiously.
"It's Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."
"Really? I've heard so much about it."
Sakura raised an eyebrow. "How?"
"Well, one day after beating the last level on Space Wars 2 I went out for a nice refreshing fly. I saw this tiny little owl holding a large newspaper. I managed to fight it from him."
"And?"
"It was an issue of the Daily Prophet.'
"The what?"
"It's a newspaper. Inside were articles from the wizarding world. There was also a subscription form. So I mailed it in. It was pretty tricky, though, I had to give it to an owl. I still have some issues if you want to read any." He dug into his draw and brought out a huge bundle of newspaper.
"Wow! I have to tell Tomoyo the pictures move."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Time Skip… at the airport.
"I'll miss you Otou-san, I might even miss you Oii-chan." Sakura said giving them both a huge.
Then they said good-bye to their friends.
"Oh, it won't be the same without you guys next year." Rika said giving her friends a hug.
"How long will you three be gone?"
"For two years." Syaoran answered, "We'll be home for the summer and holidays."
"Did you know holidays were invented when one day a teacher had so much papers to grade that he needed two months to finish. So he cal-" *WHAM!*
"I'll miss your stories Yamazaki."
"even if they're fake." Chiharu added.
"Last call for passengers to flight #116 to London, England." The intercom announced.
"Well, we have to go." Tomoyo said giving everyone a final hug.
"Gaki, take care of my sister." Touya said extending a hand. Syaoran blinked. Then he shook his hand half expecting to have the life squeezed out of it, but for the first time ever Touya didn't glare at him.
Everyone was shocked. "Last call for passengers to flight #116. Last call for passengers to flight #116."
Then the three teenagers said their last good-byes and hurried to the line.
"Remember, Gaki, if you make a pass at Sakura I'll personally wring your neck!" Touya shouted at the descending crowd.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On The Plane…
Syaoran blushed. His seat was next to Sakura. She had the window seat.
"How long is this flight going to be?"
"I think it's 6 hours." (AN: I truly don't know how long it takes *shrugs* I've never been out of the country.)
-Great I have to sit with Sakura for 6 hours.- Syaoran thought. It wasn't that he hated her, actually it was the opposite, it was because he couldn't stop blushing when she was around.
"I have the seat behind you guys." Tomoyo said mischievously.
-You better not be up to something.-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
During the flight Sakura fell asleep leaning against Syaoran's shoulder. His face could match the color of a ripe tomato.
"Kawaii!" Tomoyo said from the seat behind them. He turned his head and could see camera in her hands.
"You wouldn't."
"I won't need a video camera since the pictures will move by themselves. Sakura'll love this one."
"You wouldn't"
"You know me."
Then Syaoran leaned back making his seat push Tomoyo back into her seat, but also it made the sleeping Sakura fall on top of him.
*flash*
"I'll give you a copy too, Li-kun."
Syaoran struggled to get Sakura off him without waking her. –I'll never be able to explain this one.-
But luckily Sakura was a heavy sleeper and didn't wake up. (AN: Too bad)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally after 6 long hours, the plane landed in London.
At the baggage area, the gang stood there not exactly knowing what to do.
"How do we know who the professor is?"
"Maybe we could sense him."
"Maybe we sou-"
Then there was a tap on Sakura's shoulder. They turned around and came face to face with non other than…
"Eriol-kun!" Sakura called giving him a big hug.
"Not you!" Syaoran shouted.
"Nice to see you too, Little Descendant."
Tomoyo blushed. It had been a long time since they had seen each other. –Mou, he's handsome.-
"Hello, Tomoyo. You look beautiful as always." He spotted her and bowed. Then he took her hand and kissed it gently. –Same old Eriol.-
Tomoyo blushed. "Errriiioollll."
Eriol took both of her hands and looked into her eyes. Then they stared at each other for a while. (AN: Kawaii! ^.^)
*ahem*
"What are you doing here anyway?" Syaoran asked breaking their little moment.
"I came to escort these lovely ladies."
"I thought we were supposed to meet a professor from Hogwarts?" Sakura asked.
"Well, I'm the new Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher." (AN: Could have seen that coming.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AN: Wow! I call that a long chapter, I think? Please review, even if it's to tell me to throw my story in the recycling bin.
Disclaimer: *sniff* No I don't own CCS and Harry Potter, CLAMP and J.K. Rowlings do.
