Hogwarts Trouble
By QTKawaii25
Chapter 14- Quidditch
"Kinomoto, Sakura?"
Jumping from her seat excited, she gave a positive, "Hai!"
"Nice enthusiasm! Go show what you can do. Good luck." Sakura smiled more widely. Taking her new broom she walked out into the field. She could almost see the faded memory of the many students taking their time off to cheer for their own team. Not too far off, she could see Harry, Hermonie, Ron, and Tomoyo cheering their loudest to be close to being heard. Sakura gave another excited smile to her friends.
"GOOD LUCK!" Ron shouted. Sakura frowned slightly not hearing what Ron was saying. "GOOD LUCK!" he tried again. He was about to yell again when Hermonie whacked Ron on his head with her wand. Slowly and gracefully, she wrote in the sky, 'Good Luck, Sakura! From all of us!' Hermonie and the rest of the gang began clapping again. Sakura's frowned ceased and was replaced by a grateful look.
Sitting on the broom, she could feel the magic from the broom tingling with her magic. "GO!" She pushed off the ground with a kick and she felt the wind wrap around her gently.
"It's been a long time, ne?" she whispered to the wind. She was so rapt with her thoughts; she didn't even notice the small red ball fly right past her, going through the left goal post. Confused why everyone was cheering, she looked around where the captain pointed to her and motioned her to come. She gently floated to the ground to where the couch stood.
"Kinomoto, do you know how to play?" Not getting a quick answer, the couch continued, "What you have to do is keep the ball from getting through our goal post and get the ball through their goal post. Got it?" Sakura nodded. "Great! Now go out there and play your best!" With new understanding of the game, Sakura soared through the air, eyes locked on the little red ball. The whistle blew.
"Here comes the next one! Get ready, Sakura!" Sakura squatted down on her broom ready for the ball to come to her. With her broom, she swept the ball away with the bottom of the broom to her team mates. She watched her team pass the Quaffer back and forth and was about to score into Syaoran's goal post when he popped out of nowhere and hit the ball with all his might towards Sakura. Sakura easily blocked it and passed the ball to one of her fellow team mates. Syaoran did the same thing and this time, the ball went soaring into Sakura's goal post. She could see from afar Syaoran's smirk making Sakura's blood boil...just a little.
If this was how he was going to play, then so be it. Noticing the ball that was headed to her right goal, Sakura made a dash for it and aimed it straight into Syaoran's left goal. Syaoran cursed out loud. 'Oh, you're on!' Syaoran told Sakura mentally. Sakura smiled innocently and raised her eyebrows. The two went non-stop on trying to score a goal, but they both failed mercilessly. The Griffindor Qudditch team, noting that they were not needed, just sat there watching and waiting for one of their team to score.
Syaoran wasn't tired, although he was sweating like a pig under a fire, no more like he was the fire. He wanted so badly to fail that little girl across from him: to prove who's stronger in body and magic. Every time he hit the ball, he was able to sneak a second of freedom before concentrating where the ball was going to land. That brat on the other hand, he could sense, was having very little problem like him, but she doesn't notice that small second where she can take a small break. 'Stupid girl! She'll waste all her energy that way!' He didn't care...right? Of course he doesn't! The ball came to him again, he hit it once again towards her, not very bothering to hit into the goal post. The way she moved so gracefully, like a dance-er-rogue or something like that...ARG! If she's not important to him, why was he thinking or her so much?!
He hit the ball again. Forget her think about something else...the cloud? Sure, why not? Better than that gir-a certain person. Not thinking about her! Not thinking about her-or him!
Suddenly, Syaoran's aura felt a tingling purple aura just above him, causing him to lose his concentration for a second. Enough time for a red ball to fly straight into his goal post. Unfortunately for Syaoran, the strange aura was gone before his eyes to pick it up.
"YAY! I win!" Sakura leaped with glee. She lost her balance but that didn't worry her. Large pink feathered wings appeared on her bad to catch her just in time. Sakura took this opportunity to do a couple of flips in the air with her card for she hadn't used them for three years. (Her battle world in the sky was too small for her big wings, let alone flying)
Syaoran ignored her and flew down to the ground slowly and walked to the water area. When Sakura was done releasing out her energy, she met up with him at the water station. "Great job, Li-san!"
"Yeah," was all he said and walked away. Now Sakura felt a bolt of guilt. Maybe Syaoran really wanted to be in the Griffindor Quidditch team. 'I mean he has a lot more sweat than she does, which mean he was working harder than me to get into the team...' She was about to tell him he could have the place in the team when Harry, Hermonie, and Ron showed up.
Syaoran's POV
When Kinomoto came over to me, I didn't know what was wrong with me. My heart hammered my rib cage, wanting to get out and my face, got hot. I felt like I was going to melt just then. It was after all, a very hot day. Maybe I need some ice. But when she spoke, I felt my knees grow weak and unable to carry my weight. Not hearing the another word she said, I just barely made an answer that fits all. "Yeah." I knew I was going to collapse but I must not collapse in front of Kinomoto! Never!
I need to be strong! The Elders would never have approved of what I just did. Kinomoto, is just a small obstacle I have to get through to win. And I must always win.
Normal POV with Sakura
"Sakura! We've got the stone!" whispered Hermonie.
"Nani? What stone?"
"Remember when we went to the Slytherin's guard chamber thingy?" asked Ron.
"We went back to the Chamber to find the stone after you went to the hospital."
"We saw a glint and thought it was the snake."
"I let go of the chicken that I borrowed from Hagrid," Ron said, "I still have its scratches."
"We let the chicken squawk for awhile because a chicken's squawk is very perilous to a basklit's ear. When we thought it was safe enough to look-"
"Which took like couple of hours-" inserted Ron.
"We opened out eyes and-"
"Look, here's the stone of Slytherin!" finished Harry as he fished out a hand size clear rich green stone. Inside the stone had a small statue of a thin green snake. It's blood red eyes flashed a moment when Sakura came near, but no one noticed it.
"Matte! You're talking too fast. What happened to the snake? Didn't you see a," Sakura gulped a little, "her dead?"
"A dead snake? Where?" a plump woman with wide eyes and long mouth asked. She held a piece of paper and a writing feather. Harry quickly hid the stone. "What is that you're hiding, boy?"
"Nothing!" Harry said much too quickly.
"Don't lie to me!" said the woman, "Give me that to me! Or you'll receive a detention!"
"Excuse me, um, whoever you are, I don't think you are allowed to give detentions because you are not our teacher and on top of all that, we haven't been doing anything wrong besides stand here talking how disgusting snakes are when its hungry. So there really isn't anything we did that was against the rules," stated Hermonie calmly, trying her best to sound convincing.
"Yeah!" agreed Ron.
"Are you implying that I'm blind? Because that is a regulation against the rules. Lack of respect for your teachers," the teacher shot back.
"Excuse me for going off the subject bu-"
"You are not excused!" stated the woman pompously. "Now, boy, show me that thing behind your back!"
"There's nothing behind my back," tried Harry.
"If you insist on that then, show me your hands."
"You can't do that!" Hermonie butted in, hoping they won't get into much trouble.
"Oh yes I can, after all, they are just your hands." The woman smiled victorious, "and it will be my eyes to see if there is nothing in your hands."
Sakura gave it a try, "Miss-"
"And you," she pointed the long feather at Sakura, "how were you able to fly like that without a broom? What are they teaching in this school?" Sakura then noticed a mistake, so did Hermonie.
"I'm not telling. It's called a secret that I may only share amongst my fellow peers. Gomen." Sakura scrunched up her nose and made her best snotty expression (lol dat's funny!). The lady looked outraged.
"I will report you and see if you don't get a detention for this!" Her face changed red with anger. Ron looked worried and began nudging Sakura hissing under his breath, 'what are you doing?' Sakura just smiled and said in the same hissing voice, 'trust me.'
"You can not do anything to stop us, because you're not a teacher, admit it!" Hermonie stated back.
"Give me your names," said the red faced woman as she wiped up a feather for writing and a piece of parchment.
"See, what you did!?" whispered Ron worriedly, to the woman, he said in a very apologetic way, "Sorry professor, they're not feeling too well," Ron chuckled nervously.
"Your names!?"
"What's YOUR name?" Hermonie persisted. While the woman's attention was full, Harry quickly shoved the stone into his pocket, confused at the girls' behavior.
"Yes, what is your name?" Sakura stepped forward, with anger in her eyes. The woman lifted her wand and pointed straight at Sakura's chest. Sakura froze immediately, but her eyes still contained anger. The woman's red long mouth curled up at the edges.
This time, in a softer tone, "What is your name?" Sakura felt her veins fill with anger, and magic flowed fast. She had just accidentally took small but outrageous memory of the woman's life, but had to clench her fists tight from touching into her magic. Just when she lost control; just when the anger reached her magic......
A flash was flared and a wand fell to the ground. Sakura turned to see Harry with his wand out, while the frog faced woman looked red with anger. "Arigato, Harry-kun." The woman picked up her wand and walked towards Harry.
Her face towered over Harry's and this time with an angry voice, "AND WHAT MIGHT YOUR NAME BE, EH?"
Harry didn't look frightened and simply replied, "Harry Potter." The women calmed down after getting an answer and her lips curled again and this time, mischief glowed in her eyes.
"I'll be sure of Dumbledore expelling you and your friends, Potter," Ron looked panicked trying to make excuses for his friends' behavior.
"No, Professor, they're just a little out of it. After all, it's been a hot day! Feel that sun!"
"Ron, relax, she can't expel us, she's not a teacher," Hermonie explained.
"Feel free to excuse yourself all you want, but you," she pointed at Sakura, "you," she pointed at Hermonie, "you," she pointed at Ron, "and most definitely you," she pointed at Harry, "are going to be expelled from all wizardry schools." She dropped her hand and raised her head high, "I will see to it." When she turned around, her eyes gazed up high to meet soft twinkling blue eyes. "Headmaster," she said emotionlessly.
"Umbridge, how are you fairing this fine afternoon?" Dumbledore asked. An evil glint appeared in the corner of her small eyes.
"Quite poor, Headmaster, I'm afraid. I see your students lack respect for their elders," she motioned to Harry, Sakura, Ron, and Hermonie, "You must punish them for what they have done. Expelling always comes to mind."
"Oh?" Dumbledore stroke his beard amused, "and what, may I ask, is the problem? What have they done to earn such rash punishment?"
Umbridge pointed a finger at Harry, "For one, he had attacked me," Umbridge's finger swung towards where Sakura and Hermonie, "they have mouths spitting at dear old me," Umbridge's finger then pointed to Ron, who looked aghast, "and third, he bribed me with lies." Ron's ears turned red with anger and embarrassment.
Some of the teachers began shaming at the four students for their rude behavior while others waited for the headmaster's reply. Dumbledore merely turned to the angry group of students and asked, "Is this true?"
Before anyone of them could answer him, Umbridge quickly interrupted, "-don't listen to them! They'll only tell fibs. They are after all ten years."
"Fifteen," Harry interrupted.
"The audacity of them. You should have expelled them years ago," the plump woman huffed.
"Headmaster Dumbledore-san, we didn't do anything bad. And Harry-kun only attacked her because she attacked me. An-and when we asked her name, she didn't answer," said Sakura.
"She's right, Professor. She also threaten us to get detentions if we did do what she tell us," Hermonie added.
Harry pulled out his hands and showed them to Umbridge, "See, I told you I had nothing in my hands."
Umbridge looked angrily at Harry and the gang, and turned towards Dumbledore. "Do you really defy my word against theirs? Remember, Albus, I'm in a very close relationship with the Head. Watch your step," she tried fiercely to hide her glare.
"Oh, I see," Dumbledore stoked his long snowy beard and looked at Umbridge, his eyes still twinkling. "Is that a threat?" he asked, "By the way things look, Umbridge, it looks like I'm going to have to trust my students on this one."
She huffed and walked away furiously scribbling in her notebook. A shadow passed over her paper. She thought nothing of it. It must be those stupid Quidditch players. The shadow grew bigger swallowing all the students and faculty. The shadow then shrank and gave shape to a large white sheet. Everyone, including Dumbledore backed away, in surprise. Some students still practicing Quidditch, quickly stopped in the middle of the game and flew overhead to see what was going on.
"Get out of the way!" the sheet called out. Everyone moved back a little, in fear of the white talking sheet, but it was curiosity that glued them to the playing field. In the center, there was a hole where someone can see black hair poking out. "Get out of the way! The plane! Pieces of the plane are going to fall!" The lump under the sheet roamed around aimlessly trying to find the edge of the sheet.
Sakura, knowing what exactly what a plane was and looked up. Sure enough, there were bits and pieces of flaming metal flying straight down to were everyone was standing, staring in fear and awe at the moving figure.
Without hesitation, Sakura yelled with all her strength, "SHEILD!" hoping it was going to make it on time. A few other teachers and students knew what an 'plane' was and looked up. Those who knew the spell cast it, those who didn't, was left standing there thinking of a spell that might work, or just panicking.
Sakura's eyes turned golden yellow again while her magic surged through her veins. A thick pink covered the whole school, while other teachers used their shield to cover as much students as possible. Because of the amount of power she was using, she began to float, drawing unwanted attention.
When the danger has passed, the figure had finally reached the end of the sheet and gaped at the person floating couple inches off the ground. "SAKURA!" she said surprised. Sakura's eyes looked down and widen in nostalgia. She was about to speak of the person's name when all went black.
When Sakura uncovered her jade eyes, blurry images of people moving around came to her. When her vision cleared, tall people began surrounding the mysterious girl, murmuring words, thinking she couldn't hear. Then a woman in a white gown walked over, her fear hiding behind the forced worry. Sakura felt like crying. Before the fearing nurse would touch her, she disappeared: away from Hogwarts, away from the fearful people, and mostly, away from Li. She didn't want to be in a place where she was feared like a savage animal or pointed at like she was an animal in a locked cage, hearing whispering comments. The light blue sheets that once held Sakura's warmth fell to the floor.
"It's time. Hogwart's barrier is weak enough for even the smallest raid." Blood red eyes gleamed.
Author's Note- ACK! This is a really suky chappie! So if it wasn't clear, here's what happened
-Sakura's in the Quidditch team! YAY!!
-Syaoran sees something in the sky
-Umbridge is pissed at a certain four
-Syaoran's mind is always wondering off to a certain girl hint hint nudge nudge wink wink
-A person fell from the sky...wonder who it is?
-the barrier is very weak
-Sakura's powers are revealed
-Sakura wakes up in a hospital and disappears leaving Hogwarts without her cheerful aura
-Someone or something's gunna raid Hogwarts Uh-oh
Phew! That's the little summary...okay! Now for the preview of My Gift
"Hello? Mr. Ghost-that's-haunting-my-bedroom? You can come out now," I said. Getting a little impatient, I said, "If ya wanna know why I'm the only one who can see you, touch you, and hear you, you better come out now, or forever hold your peace, meaning staying here your rest of your life watching people go by without even looking at you. So come out now!"
"So, are the only people that can see me," I heard behind me, "are short-tempered women who have odd taste in clothing?" he asked me. I glowed red with anger and embarrassment.
"Here I am trying to help you get to hll and you're make fun of your own sex. There are men who also talk to ghosts (I think)." I shot back lamely. (I've done better before)
"Is it me or is it that women these days are also breast-less." I was about to smack him and smack him hard when I noticed he was wearing no shirt. Also, to make things worse, he had nice six packs. Ghostly six packs. This was not fair! I couldn't hit a nice looking guy, but, then again, there's a first time for everything. WAM! That felt much better.
"I suggest you shut-up, thank you," I am always a polite person. Very kind and generous too. I never result to violence, unless necessary.
"You pack a very hard punch! Do you always greet people like this?"
"No, but I can tell you, your not the first. Now, on to business!" I motioned him to the kitchen. "I'm Sakura Kinomoto. I'm called a mental person when people look at me when I talk to ghost because they can not see the ghosts as I can. But to all my other ghost talking friends, I'm called a Mediator. For ghosts, they call me Master as you should as well," I know that was a complete lie, but I really wanted him to call me master. "Anyway, I help ghosts get to the other side of life. Heaven, hll whatever you want to call it-"
"Wait, there are other ghosts?" WHY? I keep asking myself, WHY do they always think that the world revolves around only them?
"Yes, as a matter of fact, I've face at least say, 50, including my mother. So, you can feel special if you want to and all, but there's no point! So, to fix your problem......What's keeping you here on earth?"
"God knows." He replied.
"Okay...so, how did you die?"
"Don't remember."
"What do you mean you don't remember?!"
"It was centuries ago!"
"Geez! Here's an easier question, what DO you remember?"
"I was the prince of the Li dynasty? Does that help?"
"Not really your highness," I rolled my eyes. This was going to be one hard job. "Do you remember your name?" I tried.
"I'm not that stupid!"
"Could have fooled me." I muttered under my breath.
"It's Prince Xiao-Lang of the Li dynasty."
"Long name for a guy with such a small brain. I'm impressed that you remembered it."
"Thank you."
"Is that all you could remember?" I watched the Li dude's eyes fade out for a moment.
"I remember Ying Hua."
"Ying Hua? Who's she?"
"She-I loved her. She had the most beautiful shade of green eyes and when she smiles, it was like the whole world turned up side down."
"And? What happened?"
"I don't remember."
"Thank you god for giving me an easy case," I stood up. Touya was not going to be here with my stuff until tomorrow, so that would mean I would have to go to the library to find his problem. "Well, I'm off."
"Where?"
"The public library. Do you remember where that is?"
YEP! That's My Gift for ya! This scene happens on the second page so hold ur horses! It's coming once I finish writing it and do its finishing touches!
Also, I'm working on a story called To Know Your Name. It's about Sakura being a princess and Syaoran being an ex-prince, and the queen is mean and evil to Sakura, and so Syaoran runs away cuz she's gunna kill Fujitaka and blame it on Syaoran, and Sakura runs away too because of all the beatings and goes to this work place that Syaoran said he's going to, but because Sakura has the only pair of green eyes, she has to go there blind folded, and because this job is a way to lose ur past, the employers gives new names to the workers, so Sakura is lost, and unable to find Syaoran, she gives up and forgets her past and willing to start a new life, but she can't hide from the past forever, it'll just come back in a new name. Overall, it's a mix of The Seer and the Sword by Victoria Hanley, Cinderella, and the movie Spirited Away. It's hopefully going to stay PG and its gunna be Romance and Fantasy? Maybe about the fantasy part.
Phew, one would think after going to boarding school for 5 weeks, I'd learn how to fix run-ons. But I'm just toooooo lazy to fix
So Please, find it in ur heart to review,,,plz? THANKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
