Ancestry of the Samurai

Chapter 2

In the park

It had been three and a half weeks since Harry began studying Martial Arts and learning the ways of the Samurai. Harry had taken to Martial arts and the ways of the Samurai very well. He had even been able to win against the Dummy when it was on skill level seven. Harry had become as skilled as a mid-level Samurai. It would take a normal Samurai at least six months to reach the level Harry was on, but Harry was very determined to avenge many people's deaths.

Now, Harry was excited because his birthday was in one day. He was also excited about his trip to the Order in two weeks. Ron had sent Harry a letter asking if he wanted to go, so Harry sent a letter back saying that he did and Ron sent a letter back giving the date that he would be getting taken to the order.

Harry awoke early the next morning and since there were no owls yet he decided to go for a jog. He grabbed one of his swords and went out the front door.

He got back an hour later and there were six owls waiting for him. Harry recognized three of them. One he recognized as pig, Ron's owl. He recognized Hermione's owl (since he had gotten it for her) and a Hogwarts owl that he knew was from Hagrid.

Harry opened the one from Ron and found a letter and a book on Samurais and magic.

Dear Harry,

Happy Birthday Mate! I hope you like the book I got you. Lupin told us about your ancestry, that's really cool. My dad got a raise 'cause Percy and him are on good terms and Percy was able to talk Fudge into giving him a raise. I can't wait to see you at the order headquarters.

From,

Ron

Harry smiled and put the book on his bed. Then he opened the package from Hermione. Inside was a letter wishing him Happy Birthday and saying she couldn't wait to see him and there was a book on basic conjuring spells.

Next Harry opened the package from Hagrid. There was a letter, a cake, and a book on dangerous monsters and how to tame them.

Dear 'Arry,

Happee Birthday! I hope you like the cake.

Harry looked at the cake and saw that it said Happee Birthday. It reminded him greatly of the first time he met Hagrid. Then Harry looked back to the letter.

You might want to look over that book 'cause you 'might' be studyin' somethin like that in school. Can't wait to see you when school begins.

From,

Hagrid

"Same old Hagrid" Harry chuckled to himself.

Now Harry went to the other letters and packages. He opened the one that he found out was from the ministry. Inside was a letter telling him that he could now do magic out of school.

Harry then opened another package that he had no idea who it was from.

He read the letter first and it said.

Like the invisibility cloak your father left these in my possession and wanted me to give these to you when you turned sixteen.

Harry then opened the box and found two swords in there. "These must be the swords Lupin was talking about" Harry said in awe.

One was quite a long sword which he suspected to be a Katana and the other was about half it's size which he suspected to be a wikazashi. Harry reached in the box and grabbed out the katana and unsheathed it. Suddenly he felt magic surging through his veins. Also he could see all the knowledge of the Samurai in his head and now was more powerful than any Samurai that ever lived. He also now knew every Japanese Martial Arts move ever used. Harry then took out the wikazashi and he could feel his mind strengthening and he could tell that the barriers in his mind were impenetrable. Harry then attached them to his waist like the Samurai used to do.

Harry came to the final letter and opened it.

Dear Harry,

This letter was to be sent to when you turned sixteen. You can now do magic out of school and that's great. But that's not the reason why you're getting this letter. It's because I have died and you will be inheriting half of my money. The other half goes to Tonks, and Remus is receiving my house. I do hope you have a great time in your last two years at Hogwarts.

Your Godfather,

Sirius

Harry was about to let a few tears escape when he saw there was more.

P.S. Don't you dare cry after reading this or I will rise from my grave just to kick your ass. Oh and you might want to think about restarting the marauders with you, Remus, Ron, Hermione, and Nymph. Well goodbye.

Harry obeyed Sirius and didn't cry, but he almost did. Instead of dwelling on the thought of Sirius, Harry decided to go for another walk.

Harry had just reached the park when he heard eight pops and suddenly there were death eaters all around him. The order member that was following (It was Moody) uncloaked himself and started firing curses at them, but a couple turned around and fired killing curses at him, Harry saw this and quickly leapt through the crowd of death eaters and landed in front of Moody with his sword raised and he deflected all the curses with his sword.

"What are you doing Potter?" Moody growled.

"Saving you" Harry replied quickly.

Harry then ran at the group of Death eaters, deflecting a few more curses, and chopped off all of their wand arms in about two seconds. When Harry was done Moody quickly hit them with stunning spells, so they couldn't apparate away. "Wait a second I only see seven and heard eight pops before" Harry said worried.

"Yes, there were eight" came a cold voice from behind Harry. Harry quickly turned around and saw a death eater that was covering up Hermione's mouth. "I found this filthy mudblood wandering around outside her house" the death eater said.

"Let her go!" Harry yelled moving the fastest he had ever moved giving the death eater no time to react and ran his sword through the death eater. When the death eater fell the person's hood came off and he saw that it was Bellatrix Lestrange.

She was still breathing and right as Harry was about to slit her throat and finish her off he heard a pop and someone shout "AVADA KADAVRA!" Harry raised his sword to block the curse thinking that it would easily deflect it like it did the other curses, but it wasn't that easy. The curse collided with Harry's sword and it began pushing him back. Harry quickly grabbed his other sword and put the two swords in an X blocking the curse, but it kept pushing him back. He then pushed forward with all his might and was able to deflect it away at a tree.

While Harry was busy deflecting that curse the person that fired it apparated out of there unnoticed with Bellatrix.

Harry realized that the person was gone and yelled out in anger "I let her get away! How could I?!"

"It's ok" Moody growled, "Because you do realize that the only person powerful enough to cast a killing curse like that was Voldemort, and your lucky to have gone up against him and escape with your life. Also you saved me and Granger over there."

"Thank you for saving me Harry" Hermione said walking up to him and kissing him on the cheek, then engulfing him in a huge hug.

"Nall, pobelem" Harry said noticing when Hermione let go that she wasn't the bushy haired bookworm he used to know.

"What?" she asked.

"I mean no problem" he replied turning a little red.

"Potter, can you keep an eye on these seven while I apparate Granger back to her house." Moody growled.

"Sure" Harry began "But are you sure you want to leave them with a sixteen-year-old wizard?"

"Well it looked like you handled yourself pretty well."

"Yeah I guess so" Harry replied trying to be modest.

With that Moody walked over to Hermione, placed his hand on her shoulder, and with a loud pop he was gone.

Harry was still preoccupied with thinking about the kiss and the hug from Hermione when he heard something move behind him, Harry turned just in time to see the killing curse coming straight at him, he quickly drew his katana blocking the curse when it was an inch from his face. He looked over to the pile of one-armed death eaters and all of them were still stunned, but he never heard an extra pop. Then Harry heard a rat squeak behind him, he turned around very quickly drew his smaller sword and threw it. Harry looked and his wikazashi was pinning a rat up against a tree, but Harry knew that it was no ordinary rat. Harry drew his wand, muttered a couple of words, and blew sparks flew from his wand hitting the rat. Suddenly the rat started growing and there in front of Harry, still squirming was Peter Pettigrew.

"So Pettigrew, thought you could come back and finish the potter blood line off?" Harry said very coldly.

"H-Harry S-sir I-I d-didn't want to kill you, b-but my master o-ordered me t-too" Peter said stuttering greatly because of the pain he was feeling from the wikazashi.

"So what, even though Voldemort ordered you to, you wanted to."

"N-no I-I didn't, y-you're wrong."

"Yes you did, I should kill you right now" Harry said ignoring the loud pop behind him.

"P-please d-don't k-kill m-me"

"I'm going to" Harry said raising his sword.

"Don't do it Potter" a voice from behind Harry said.

"Why not Moody?" Harry asked. "He deserves to die. It's his fault my parents are dead, and Sirius might not be dead right now if this coward didn't run away, when we were going to prove Sirius's innocence".

"I'm sorry I have to do this Potter, but 'Stupefy'". The stunning spell hit Harry in the back sending him falling to the ground unconscious.

"Huh, where am I?" Harry asked looking around to find out where he was.

"You're in my house" a voice said.

"Who said that?" Harry asked while putting on his glasses. He got on his glasses and his eyes answered his question for him. There standing in front of him was Remus Lupin.

"Glad you're awake Harry" Lupin said.

"How long was I out?"

"A few hours."

"What happened?"

"Well, you were about to kill the rat, but before you killed him Moody hit you with a stunner and brought you back here."

"What happened to the rat?"

"He escaped while Moody was bringing you here."

"Dammit!" Harry said angrily.

"You can get him back some other time Harry, right you should get something to eat or go to sleep."

"I guess you're right, I'll sleep I guess." Harry said.

"Choose any of the bedrooms upstairs that you want." Remus said smiling at him.

Harry awoke to the sound of people coming in the front door. He pulled on some clothes that the order had gotten for him from the Dursley's and went quietly downstairs. It made Harry happy to see that Ron and Ginny Weasley were standing in the door way along with Molly and Arthur Weasley who were accompanied by Hermione Granger.

Suddenly Hermione was running straight for Harry; she plowed into him, knocked him over and gave him a huge hug.

"We were so worried about you 'cause we heard that you got attacked while Moody was taking me back to my house" Hermione said still hugging him.

"Don't worry I'm fine, but I'm worried because Hermione Granger just used bad grammar." Harry said laughing. Once Hermione got off of Harry he said hi to everyone and they got something to eat.

After breakfast Ron walked up to Harry and said "Those are bloody brilliant swords mate. I always dreamt of learning how to use a sword."

"Well, I could teach you." Harry said.

"Really?"

"Yep, I have two extra swords with my stuff that the order grabbed. So how does tomorrow sound for starting?"

"That would be great!" Ron said eagerly.
