Disclaimer: Here is the long awaited chapter... I own nothing except the concept of Sakura being Harry's sister. Okay, now that is said and done, on with the fic! Enjoy!!

The Fourth Potter

By: Emerald May

Chapter 13

Sakura finished drinking her orange juice and stood up, ready for the day's lessons. Hermione grabbed her books and the two of them waited for the boys to stuff their faces. Hermione looked at them disgusted, for a small piece of egg was stuck on Ron's chin.

Harry turned and waved at his parents, who were getting ready to teach their classes. Lily and James waved back, Lily glancing at Sakura, who was standing beside Hermione, silent.

Sakura turned to Harry. "So where is the Potion's room?"

Before he could respond, Draco came up behind him. "Well, well, well. If it isn't the little Potty Gang." He sneered. "With a new addition."

Ron balled up his fists, ready to fight. "Take that back, Ferret."

The blonde boy's pale face turned a deep crimson, his gray hues burning with a raging fire. "I don't think so, Carrot." Draco's head went back, blood spilling over his chin.

Sakura stood in between them. "Stop it! There is not a need for violence, nor harsh words!" Ron still held his fighting stance, as Draco wiped the blood from his chin with the back of his hand. Draco's two sidekicks appeared beside him, both grinning stupidy, their own fists curled beside them.

"Sakura is right. There isn't anything to prove with violence," Hermione said, glaring at the two of them. Fortunantly, Harry went to have a word with Dumbledore, and wasn't there to witness the fight.

Draco just shook his head, "Alright then." He looked up at Ron. "You know you wouldn't have won anyway, Carrot." He glanced at the Card Mistress. "I suppose we shall see each other in class." He turned away, strutting towards the dungeons to the class. He wondered, Why is it that I can not muster up an insult at Potter's sister…?

************************************************************************

Severus Snape burst through the doors of his dungeons, startling some of the students, who were busyingly coping done the many notes upon the board, which magically scrolled down slowly. A few students, such as Sakura, watched him apprehensively, before returning to their work. Severus's gaze met the honey-colored hair of the Clow Mistress. As she glanced up at the board, he felt envy for the eyes that belonged to Lily, a hint of longing. He muttered a silent growl, which was obviously directed to James, wherever he was currently. He cleared his throat, in which all the quills stopped their 'scritch-scratch'. He turned to Sakura, and his plan was to put her in the same position as he had put Harry in two years ago. He walked slowly up to her desk, before spitting questions at her. "What are the ingredients used to prepare a sleeping potion?"

Sakura looked down, feeling intimidated. She mumbled, "I don't know."

Severus looked down upon her. "Tell me, what is a bezoar and where can it be found?"

"I don't know," was the whispered response.

Across the opposite side of the room, Draco was silently laughing, but then stopped abruptly, for he felt a sense of an unknown feeling, which his instinct told his conscience that it was guilt. Why is it that I have this feeling… guilt….?

Severus leaned on her desk, making the sorceress back away. He nearly whispered the last statement in low and harsh tone. "Then tell me this much, Potter, why you are in the Third Year and not with your fellow 11-year olds in the First Year?"

Sakura looked up, her jade hues staring back up into her professor's ink-black pools. "I don't know, yet I have a feeling that I do, but I am not permitted to say out of my own free will. And I may be a Potter by blood, but in my heart, I will always be a Kinomoto, and if you please, call me Sakura, or Kinomoto, and not Potter," She said in fierce determination, but kept her voice steady, as to not to show her anger.

Severus straightened her back, astounded that a mere student would ever talk back to him, much less stand up to him, speaking her mind. He seemed to have forgotten why she had a level raise and stalked to the front of the class, beginning the day's lesson. He began to call out people to be paired for their potion making.

"Potter, Weasley."

"Longbottom, Granger, and don't destroy your potion, Longbottom." Neville whimpered at this remark, looking down at his half-hidden shoes.

"Parkinson, Crabbe."

This caused an outburst from Pansy, in which Severus stared back down at her darkly. "You will work with you assigned partner, Parkinson, and no more on the issue," He said as he returned to pairing up the students, reading from his prearranged list.

"Seamus, Goyle."

"Kinomoto, Malfoy." He sneered, saying the Card Mistress's last name, his oily voice dripping with disgust.

The other students, the 'Potter Gang' included, turned towards them, whispering behind their back, rumor having it that the two had met on an earlier occasion, both now desping each other

Sakura's emerald orbs flashed with anger, hinting out the tone of his voice. Draco moaned, wondering why he was cursed.

Sakura and Malfoy stood side by side, not speaking, chopping up the ingredients needed to make a Sleeping Potion, as the other students glanced quietly at them, but whipped their heads back again, fearing that Snape would take off points for their house.

"No, you need to add this first," Sakura said, pushing his hand away from the cauldron.

Draco growled, his eyes narrowing. "Fine, if you think you are so smart, you concoct the potion." He stood back watching her.

Sakura turned her back on him, adding the correct ingredients within the correct sequence. She turned back to Draco, handing him the wooden spoon. "Stir it for 10 minutes, counterclockwise. I'm going to record our data."

Draco grabbed the spoon, doing as she directed. He glanced at her as she wrote down the data, and blinked, seeing a glimpse at a golden-pink aura surround her. But it vanished as soon as it appeared. "What the…..?" Sakura heard him and turned back towards him.

"What is it?" Her eyes narrowed in suspicion as her eyes averted quickly towards the cauldron. "You didn't mess it up did you?"

"No! I didn't….oh nevermind," He said quickly in his defense, wanting to tell her about the aura he saw, but didn't bother. As ten long minutes droned on with no speaking between the two, the potion was complete, simmering down to a sky blue shade, taking the resemblance of Cool-Aid, but much thicker. Sakura grimaced.

"We have to… drink that..?"

Draco sneered at her. "What else are you going to do with it? Throw it on the floor and cry?"

Sakura's jade hues flashed with anger as she spat back at him. "No. I'd rather throw it into that pale face of yours!"

Professor Snape came over, hearing the commotion. "What is the problem here?" He asked, his voice oily.

"He was insulting me in a way." Sakura glared at Draco.

"Was not!"

"Silence!" Severus barked. "Ten points from Gryffindor for childish bickering!"

The Clow Mistress was appauled. "What about Slytherin?"

Severus glanced at her coldly as he made his way to the front of the class. "What about Slytherin?" She turned and stood in front of the class as Sakura fumed at the professor.

"Now, one of your partners will drink half a cup of the potion. The other will record how long it will take for their partner to fall asleep and how long. Then record what the person had felt when falling asleep, and if they dreamed about anything." He turned his back as the students shuffled around, drinking potions here and there.

Draco turned to Sakura. "Well I am not drinking that….junk."

Sakura sighed and said, "Fine. I will." With that, she scooped up some of the potion in a goblet, closed her eyes and drank. She suddenly felt dizzy and grabbed the corner of the table, but missed, as she fell backwards. A figure reached out to grab her hand, was successful, but not before Sakura's head collided with the marble floor. Her world then went black.

************************************************************************

Draco's hand reached to grab his partner's hand, but failed as her head hit the floor. He grimaced at the crack, looking almost guilty. He turned towards his professor, wondering what he would say. He turned back to Sakura, and blinked. Draco saw the aura, yet once again, but a bit stronger than before. A golden pink had surrounded her. He shook his head. Get a hold of youself….

Sakura was rigid, not moving… almost not breathing either. Draco wondered if she had hit her head harder than it seemed.

"Now, I want you to put your forefinger and middle finger to your partner's forehead. Then, with your fingers still upon their foreheads, drink the solution as well, and you will enter what they are 'dreaming'."

Draco took a breath, his fingers on her forehead as he drank the potion, his world as he knew it vanishing from sight in a whirl of color as he blacked out as well.

************************************************************************

The Card Mistress's jade hues fluttered open as she looked around. Her eyes widened at her surroundings. There was nothing but stormy clouds in a graveyard. In the distance she saw Hogwarts, still as tall as usual, but walls torn apart, the towers upon the ground.

"What the…?" She began before a just of wind blew out from nowhere, so strong that she fell over, shielding her eyes. She heard a cruel laugh. Wait a minute… I know that voice!

A figure landed beside her. He lifted his head, his facial features proving that it was Draco Malfoy.

"Draco?? What are you doing here?" She exclaimed, a bit annoyed, but glad that there was another with her, even if it meant a Malfoy.

"Professor Snape told us to enter where ever you were…. What is this place?" He shouted over the high pitched laugh that seemed to go on forever.

She shook her head. "I don't know!"

Suddenly, yet a third figure was summoned next to them, but this one's face cloaked. "Well, well, well….. We meet at last, Sakura Lily Potter…."

Draco recognized the voice instantly, the voice of his father's master, Voldemort.

"And my dear Draco Malfoy…"

Sakura turned to him. "Is this who I think it is? But how were we summoned here?"

The cruel voice answered her questions. "You were summoned here by me… for I knew that this potion was going to take place in the Third Year… so why not have a little fun with it?"

She glared at him, her eyes narrowed.

Draco stood beside her silently.

"And now I shall get my revenge… death of the Potters, starting with you!" He raised his hand, at the same time muttering, "Avada Kedavra!"

Draco's eyes flew open as he knocked her to the ground, the curse narrowly missing the two of them.

"Draco.. why do you protect a Gryffindor….?"

"She may be a Gryffindor, but she is just a child! An 11-year old girl!"

Sakura got up, her head bent, the key around her neck hovering in front of her. The Clow Symbol appeared at her feet as she looked up, her arms in midair, as if keeping the key from plummeting towards the ground. Golden smoke like waves surround her.

"What is this?!" Voldemort demanded. Draco had watched in awe before shielding his eyes from the light that had emitted from her. They both heard a chanting as this was going on.

O' key that hides the forces of Dark,

Show you true identity before me.

I, Sakura, command you under our contract.

Release the seal!

With this incantation, the key had transformed into a staff, nearly four feet long in length. It was a brilliant shade of pink, a golden star at the top, circled around by a pink band, two small pure white feathers jutting out from either side of the band.

"What is that…?" Draco asked, but to himself, still watching her, his grey orbs no longer cold.

Sakura looked up, seeing the sky turn into many colors, all running together, but yet still beautiful. She turned back to Voldemort, who was using his wand to send the Killing Curse towards her yet once again.

"AVADA KEDAVRA!" He shouted, but with more force, which sent the curse hurtling towards Sakura and Draco. The staff suddenly glowed brighter, a shield shooting out from the top, surrounding the Card Mistress and Draco. Sakura couldn't help but smile, knowing that this was Yue's doing in his effort to protect her.

The curse backfired, going back towards Voldemort, who dodged it effortlessly.

Sakura raised a card, flinging into the air, the card hovering, waiting for its command as she raised the staff higher into the air. "FLY Card! I call upon thee! Release your magic now, flying us out of this dimension!" With this, the small feathers on Sakura's staff shot out, maginafying in size as she climbed upon the pole of her staff. She held out her hand to the Slytherin boy, shouting at the same time. "Grab my hand and climb on!"

He shakily grabbed her hand, doing as she said. He grasped onto the pole, to avoid falling off as the wings lifted the two up, flying higher towards the colors that mingled together as Voldemort threw a fist at them, vowing to kill her the next time they met. "YOU WILL DIE, POTTER!"

Sakura shouted back at him. "THAT'S KINOMOTO TO YOU!" Voldemort vanished in a 'pop' as this dimensional world disappeared, Draco and Sakura flying through the brilliant colors to their time and place.

Just as they had gone through the 'portal' a voice was carried towards Sakrua, four simple words coming to her mind. "He wears a mask………" She wondered exactly who wore a mask, but didn't have time to think as the world around her blackened, going back to the present time of Hogwarts.
