The Fourth Potter
By: Emerald May
Chapter 8
Lily looked at her son, her eyes wide in wonder, daring to believe. "Wh-what do you mean? Sakura is alive?"
James frowned at Harry. "Harry. Don't tell your mother tales."
"But it's true!" Harry protested. "I even saw a girl that fit the description of Sakura! Ron, Hermione, and I were sitting in The Three Broomsticks, when three people entered and left the pub. One was a guy with dark chestnut hair with semi-dark brown eyes. There were two girls, one who looks like me, and the other had long black hair that curled at the end with dark-brown, almost violet colored eyes when seen in the light."
Harry's mother's eyes were hopeful, while James' was filled with doubt. Sirius grabbed Harry by the shoulders.
"Harry, are you absolutely sure?" Sirius too looked hopeful but his eyes also held doubt. "Perhaps there are hundreds of people that look you."
Harry shook his head firmly. "No. I'm positive about what I saw." The Boy Who Lived looked down at the ground. "The girl I saw had a scar shaped like a crescent moon upon her right temple."

The young girl stomped down the corridor of the Hogwarts Express, hoping to find an empty compartment. Coming across the end of the train, she found a small but empty room. She dragged her bags with her, stowing them in a corner. She kept her shoulder bag close to her side, for it contained her Clow Book with the fully transformed Sakura Cards. Sakura was still enraged at Draco. She looked out the window and watched the other students aboard the train. Her mind drifted off to what had happened in the past week.
~*~*~Flashback~*~*~
"Alright. Yue, Kerberus, are you guys ready?" Sakura asked her guardians.
Kerberus, in his true form, nodded his massive head. "We are ready."
Sakura closed her eyes and concentrated on the magic of Clow Reed's. The Clow symbol appeared at her feet like glowing gold, its pattern matching up perfectly with the young sorceress' lithe figure. A silver – blue aura surrounded the young cheerleader. She focused her energy on the power and held her staff as she chanted. "I call upon the ancient powers within, to bond my staff and my guardians as kin." A brilliant golden-yellow light burst from the star on her staff and surrounded the two guardians, bringing them closer towards the staff. Both had their eyes closed. Yue's silvery – white hair tangled around him as the wind blew across his face. Kerberus on the other hand, stood perfectly still, allowing the energy and magic to control him. The two simultaneously were pulled into the staff, warmth enveloping Sakura as she felt the powerful magic flow into her staff. The Clow symbol died off as the process was complete.
"Wow." Tomoyo breathed, taking in the sight with her black camcorder. Syaoran, Meiling, Sakura, Touya, and Tomoyo all heard the click as Tomoyo pressed 'stop' to end the recording.
~*~*~End of Flashback~*~*~
Sakura opened her eyes as she remembered the incident. Another event flew across her memory.
~*~*~Flashback~*~*~
"Hey Sakura! I came over here to drop of some things I made," Tomoyo's cheerful voice called out as she entered her best friend's room.
Sakura looked up from her packing and was taken back as Tomoyo held a box – full of clothes.
"Look! I made some more costumes in case there would be any balls and stuff like that." Tomoyo dumped the clothes onto Sakura's pink and white bed. Sakura peered over her shoulder.
"Wow! Tomoyo thanks! But you know, I don't think there will be that many dances." Tomoyo only waved her hand.
"So? Then wear them on weekends or something. I just want you to have them so won't be homesick." She hugged Sakura. "I'm going to miss you." Tomoyo pulled something else out of the box. "I also brought some videos of the times when you captured and changed the Clow Cards.
Sakura laughed out loud. "I don't think they have TVs over in Hogwarts. It's a magical school remember? They don't even use pens. They use quills."
Tomoyo looked disappointed. "Oh, well. I guess that means more for me to watch!"
Sakura smiled at her friends quick recovery.
~*~*~End of Flashback~*~*~
Sakura sat back in her seat and sighed, looking out the window, watching the parents wave to their childeren as the Hogwarts Express began its journey. She thought, this is going to be a long year.
