Chapter 3: Since the surprise was ruined ...


It was now the beginning of the new school year and the group of six from the Destiny Islands were standing at the front of the Great Hall, waiting to be sorted like the first years had done a short while ago.

"Before we tuck in, I'm sure you all are wondering about the students that have yet to be seated. They are exchange students from one of Japan's many magic schools. Please wait while your new classmates are sorted, and please make them feel welcome in your houses." Dumbledore sat down. Professor McGonnagal walked in front of them.

"You know the drill, when I call your name, step forward and you will be sorted. Everheart, Sora." Sora stepped forward and put on the hat.

"Well, well, well. From another dimension, eh? Very well. Kind, caring, loyal, and quite a bit of bravery. My, Slytherin wouldn't be a good choice. Nor would Ravenclaw, learning isn't what you'd rather do. That leaves Hufflepuff or Gryffindor, but where to put you?"

"Wahhh! It talks!" Sora said aloud for everyone to hear and almost fell off of the stool he was sitting on.

"Well of course I do, how else would I be able to sort you? After that, it seems like Gryffindor would be the better choice, a Hufflepuff would have had either more or less dramatics. Believe me, I've had enough of them pass out while I was sorting them from shock. You will do well in GRYFFINDOR!!" McGonnagal picked up the hat, and Harry was waving for Sora to join him and two others.

Sora got off the stool and past Riku with a whispering notion, "Riku, the hat talks." He said in a bit of shock.

"I know, the whole room heard your declaration." Riku said.

"Ah, crap." Sora said and slumped on his way to the Gryffindor table with Harry and his two friends.

"Keto, Kairi." Kairi stepped forward and put on the hat.

"My, my, my! You certainly are a sly one, though there seems to be a bit of heart, much more than your father. High intelligence, that would help your cunning plans. And ambition!! Hufflepuffs are too kind, Gryffindors are too loyal, neither of which are qualities you possess. But which is it, Slytherin or Ravenclaw?" Kairi smirked.

"Which represents what?"

"Slytherins are sly, cunning, often thought of as evil. Ravenclaws are intelligent and classified as know-it-alls because of all their knowledge."

"Hmm....put me in Ravenclaw, I don't anyone to foil my plans."

"RAVENCLAW!!" Kairi smirked again and joined her housemates.

McGonnagal raised an eyebrow at the Slytherin behavior, but carried on. "Kin, Wakka."

"HUFFLEPUFF!!"

"Shikai, Tidus."

"HUFFLEPUFF!!"

"Taiyo, Selphie."

"Now I've seen hyper-activity in its purest form! Cheerful, loyal, and what a mind!! And to keep your budding relationship with the headmaster a secret! My dear, you are a Ravenclaw if I ever saw one!"

"Squee! Thank you!"

"Of course, RAVENCLAW!!" She bounced over to the Ravenclaw table and sat next to Kairi.

"Yamakai, Riku."

"Well, plenty of loyalty, intelligence, stubbornness and ambition. But all of that jealousy! Why be jealous, when you're the closest any one will be to him? I've seen his heart, it belongs to you. Sly, cunning, you'd do well in the serpent's den."

"But ... I want to be with Sora." He tried to whine.

"No, Gryffindor will make you miserable, believe me. Last time I put a Slytherin in Gryffindor, he hated his love for nearly six years. All that time they could have been together, wasted. He would have had many more friends had he been in Slytherin. No, this time I will not bend. SLYTHERIN!!" Riku slowly started walking to the Slytherin table. He was about half-way to the table, when he suddenly turned around and sprinted for the Gryffindor table. He had almost made it, when Dumbledore got out his wand and spelled him to the Slytherin table. Where Riku started sulking when he realized he was stuck to the seat.

Dumbledore stood up. "Well, since our new DADA teacher hasn't arrived with the - "

The doors of the Great Hall slammed open, and two blurs streaked to the head table, followed by the notorious Sirius Black.

"Sorry we're late! Sora-chan forgot to bring the oars, so we had to go back and get them," the brown haired girl said, glaring at her silver haired companion, who was petting the black and white kitten on her shoulder. The brown haired girl was six feet tall, with blue eyes and silver crescent moons in the pupils. She was very slender, and it didn't seem like she could fall from all of the grace she walked with. An oar was slung over her shoulder.

The silver haired girl had two cat ears on the sides of her head (Sora: If you know what Chobits is, it's like that only they're more foxish and kitty-ish. Silver with orange tips.) with several earrings hanging down from her left ear and only one on the right. She was five feet five inches tall and her eyes were red with gold streaks around the pupils. She held another oar with her right hand, as the other one petted the kitten. "Hey, it wasn't my fault I forgot, Engetsu! You two were rushing me." She said and stopped petting the kitten to give her friend a soft glare.

Engetsu held up her hands in front of her. "Black's the one who was doing all the rushing, besides, I asked you if you had them right before we left!" She then muttered, "damn sisters, can't remember anything and blame me for it."

"You did? I don't remember that." Sora-chan said in a seemingly innocent tone.

Engetsu scowled, then closed her eyes (for once) and pinched the bridge of her nose. "Whatever, is it too late to get sorted? I don't want another year of boredom, since we've surpassed America's school system."

Dumbledore nodded.

"Aoi, Sora."

"Another Sora, unusual for an unusual name, though lovely, never the less. My, much more hyper than that Taiyo girl, especially when mixed with root beer! What is it, child, the bubbles? Finished the Japanese school system? I sure hope you're here for the culture and not to learn, because frankly, there's not much you don't know."

"Oh no, sir. I'm not just here for a bit more learning but also to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher with a bit of Blacks' help of course. You see, since I'll be a student here, I'm not allowed to be teaching, so I will just be making the lesson plans and establishing the homework plans. As you could probably say, I'm the director behind the scenes and he's the actor performing in the play." Sora-chan interrupted for a brief explanation.

"I can see. Very brave, I see you've fought along side Engetsu for many millennia. Very loyal, have to be, when you're Engetsu's friend. All of the betrayals, many secrets. Better be GRYFFINDOR!!"

Sora-chan took the old hat off and stood, then gave it to McGonnagal and gave a slight bow. Then she started towards the table, after getting her oar from Engetsu, and sat down next to the other Sora.

"Umihebi, Engetsu." She rolled her eyes.

"As if we don't know where I'll go." Everyone looked at her questioningly, and she just smirked when a snake poked its head out of her shirt. "Good Hebi, just go back to sleep. I'll wake you when it's food time," she said lovingly to the snake.

"YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!"

"Yeah, yeah, just sort me already." Engetsu said irritably.

"Yes, well, loyal, brave, intelligent, though that comes with your race, doesn't it? Kind, but you have many secrets, don't you? Sneaky when you wish to be. Few things that you hide can be found within the next few years. Barely, just barely, I think I may be able to sort you. You are barely SLYTHERIN!!"

She got up and glided to the Slytherin table, ignoring all the looks for her sudden personality change, stroking her pet snake. Dumbledore stood up and clapped his hands. "Let the feast begin!" Food suddenly appeared on the tables, amazing the first years.

The Destiny Island group were all amazed, just like the first years. Soras' eyes grew large and he started to dig into the food instantly, splattering food over everyone except for Sora-chan, who had a shield up. "Calm down Sora-kun." Sora-chan said to him.

He stopped for a moment and looked at her. "How do you know my name?" He asked.

"I can read your mind of course." She answered.

"Eh?" He asked bewildered.

Yeah, me too. Damn demon. Sora-chan heard Engetsu say in her head.

Ha ha! I know! Sora-chan answered back. Then she started smiling and laughing while the people around her looked at her like she was crazy.

Which you are.

Yeah, whatever. Are there any cute guys over there or anything?

Ya see the guy that just can't seem to get up, for some reason? He's kind of bishi. And the other silver haired guy sitting next to him? Yeah. But I got to say, that Professor Snape overshadows 'em all. Vox's still the cutest bishonen, though.

Ha ha! Okay then. ... I still think that Evil's better. Sora-chan answered and cut Engetsu off and looked at the people around her. "What? Don't you know what telepathy is?" She asked before everyone went back to their food.

That's only 'cause he's yours. Vox's the best. Besides, has Evil even kissed you yet? No? I thought so. Ja mata. Engetsu turned to Draco and Riku. "So, where is the Serpent's Den? I know it's in the dungeons, but that's it."

Draco nodded. "I'll show you. What does you and Aoi's last names mean, anyway?" Engetsu looked at him.

"Aoi means red, and Umihebi is a combination of two words. Umi means sea and hebi means snake or serpent. So, my last name is sea serpent." Draco's eyes widened a bit.

"And that snake is?"

"My pet, Hebi." Draco's eyes widened.

"You're pet?! But snakes aren't allowed!!" The crescent moons in Engetsu's eyes turned through the phases of the moon, returning to their original positions. She smirked.

"Do you really think I care?" Draco paled and leaned back, putting distance between himself and the insane she-elf sitting in front of him.

Riku laughed at him. "It's not that scary, in fact, not scary at all." He drank some pumpkin juice out of his silver goblet and looked as though he wasn't trying to get up to get to Sora anymore.

Engetsu raised an eyebrow. "Well, I don't know about 'not scary at all', but you're right. She's not that scary, and she's very helpful. I wouldn't fear, unless you piss me off. Then you're doomed, whether it's from me or Hebi."

Riku laughed again. "Yes, I would believe so." Engetsu nodded.

"Good to know at least someone here listens to me. I can tell you right now, Sora-chan rarely does. Damn demons; never listen to anybody, whether they're right or not."

"That is very true. It's especially so for those without hearts." Engetsu nodded.

"I've heard about dimensions with demons without hearts. I have never seen one, but I knew I would back when I first started learning about magic. Elf's intuition, I guess you could say, right Draco?" Draco stopped trying to get away without any one noticing.

"Demons without hearts? What are they called?"

"Huh? ... What are we talking about?" Riku asked, seemingly innocent. Draco scowled.

"Demons without hearts, I just want to know what they're called!"

Riku gave a small glare before smiling and giving his answer. "Oh yeah, that! Ha ha, they're called heartless I believe."

Draco's eyes widened. "Really? So that's what we ran into!" Engetsu looked accusingly at Draco, although it was a very lazy glare.

"And you say a snake is scary. Considering that I found Hebi in a garden, I do believe whatever you found had to have been much scarier than my precious, little Hebi."

"Back home, the serpents are much larger, at least six feet long. They usually use magic also and petrification. I guess you could say that they were basilisks."

Engetsu nodded. "There is a species that is called a basilisk. The sight of it will petrify a person and to look straight into its eyes will kill someone. Serpents are just another word for snake."

Riku just smirked at her and at some fish. Engetsu shook her head and kept feeding her snake chicken, occasionally eating a few bites herself. Soon, the plates cleared themselves and Dumbledore stood up.

"Now that we are all fed and watered, I have a few reminders before we all go to bed. First, the Forbidden Forest is forbidden unless you have proved to me and the professors that you are strong enough to handle it, as long as they know where you are. Second, sixth and seventh years are allowed in Hogsmeade whenever they are out of classes, as long as they are passing and a teacher knows where they are. Same goes for those allowed in the forest. Thirdly, all merchandise from Weasley's Wizarding Weezes is strictly forbidden at Filch's request. Now that that's out of the way, first years follow your house prefects to your dormitories. Sleep well."

Everyone rose and started to leave the Great Hall, Ravenclaws and Gryffindors going to their respective towers, the Hufflepuffs toward the kitchens, and the Slytherins to the dungeons. Both Sora-chan and Sora-kun ran up to Harry.

"Harry! What's the password?" Sora-kun asked. Harry turned to him.

"Sorry, I don't know it yet. Hermione and Ron know, they're Head Boy and Girl. Oi! Hermione! What's the password?" Hermione glared at him.

"Why? Want to go 'fight' with Draco?" Hermione snarled. Harry rolled his eyes.

"No, we would like to get to the tower faster so we can go to bed."

"Yes! Please!" Sora-kun said with big eyes and a pout.

Hermione sighed. "Fine. It's 'Kairi must die.' Don't know why, it just is." Harry grinned.

"Thanks, Hermione." Sora-chan burst out laughing. Sora-kun raised an eyebrow.

"Okay ... then." Sora-kun said.

"Come on Sora-kun! Let's go, I'm bored!" Sora-chan said and picked up Sora-kun and was almost instantly at the picture of the fat lady in the pink dress. Sora-chan set down Sora-kun and waved at the picture. "Konbanwa! Genki desu ka? Good afternoon! How are you?"

Harry ran up behind them. "Kairi must die." The fat lady nodded and opened up to allow them into the Gryffindor common room.

Sora-chan raised an eyebrow at Harry. Sora-kun sat there staring at Sora-chan in shock from being carried so fast over such a long distance.

Harry shook his head. "I'm going to bed. Girls' dormitories are up the right hand staircase, boys up the left. All your stuff should be up there already, except for your cat and oar." Harry then turned and started up the stairs to the boys' rooms. "I would recommend getting some sleep. It will be a long week if you don't."

Both Soras nodded their heads and went to the separate staircases. As soon as Sora-chan went into her room, she looked for her trunk and put her oar beside her bed and Sairah on one of the many pillows. Then Sora-chan sat on the bed and reopened her connection to Engetsu.

Hey, Engetsu! You there? Answer me will you? She asked.

Will you give me a minute? The idiot who's leading us clearly doesn't know the fastest way to the Slytherin Dormitories!

Engetsu was fuming, to say the least. Unfortunately, Draco apparently hadn't explored the dungeons at all in his seven years at Hogwarts. Considering that the dungeons were serpent territory, she didn't want to know how little he knew of the rest of the school. Engetsu would just take a shortcut, but there was a little problem. She didn't know the password!! Finally, they stopped in front of a picture of Salazar Slytherin and a snake. Draco turned to face the rest of his house.

"This is the entrance to the Slytherin Dormitories. Slytherin is all about winning, being the best, and doing whatever it takes to get there. It's a harsh world out there, and the people in our house will treat you better than any one outside of it. They will torment you because of your house. It would do you well to learn how to get revenge, without being caught. Once we go in, you are to go to your rooms to unpack for five minutes. Then you are to come out to listen to our Head of House, Professor Snape." He turned to the portrait. "Elves rule, humans drool." He led the way into the common room. "This is the common room, where our Head of House will speak to us. Down the left hall are the boy's rooms, the right the girl's. Once you find your year, you will enter the common room strictly for your year. Then you will find your name plaque. You are to replace this with a picture of your choice. It can be changed at any time, as well as your personal password. See you in five minutes." Draco swept down the boys hall and into his room. Engetsu walked down the girls' hall.

She found the fifth years' common room, and then her plaque. Engetsu's head tilted to the side. She thought for a moment, and then pulled out a picture of her and Sora-chan. They were in their yukatas, Sora's was red while Engetsu's was green. What do you think Hebi, perfect, isn't it?

Very.

"Hisakata." She walked in, petting her pet snake. There was a four poster bed with green curtains, a dark green bed spread, silver pillows and sliver trimmings. There was a dresser/vanity in a corner, a book case, a desk, and a wardrobe. All of the wood was a very dark mahogany. There were two doors. The first lead to a small bathroom, also done in green and silver, accented with the dark wood. The second was a shortcut to the forbidden forest. Engetsu smirked. She knew that she was the only one with a second door. Apparently Dumbledore understood the need for her to be able to get to the forest quickly. Five minutes later, she left for the main common room, where Professor Snape was waiting.

He sneered as the last of the Slytherins entered the common room. "I see that you all some how managed to get into Slytherin. Congratulations. I will be the only one of your teachers to give you a break. At least, as far as the rest of the school knows. Failure will not be tolerated. If you think that Slytherin is going to be easy, then you need to be resorted. I don't want to hear about how the other houses hate you. If you fail a class, or the OWLs or NEWTs, then request a resorting. You will not be tolerated in here. Since you are basically guaranteed to pass Potions, I expect you to use that time to get to the top of your other classes. The only ones you are allowed to fall behind of are the Ravenclaws and any know-it-alls who do nothing but study. Rule breaking will not be tolerated. Unless - " here he smirked, "you don't get caught. Bed. Now." All of the Slytherins went back to their rooms to either unpack or go to sleep. Engetsu did neither, but pulled out a book and started reading.

Back in the Gryffindor Dorms, Sora-chan had set up a wall around her bed and the bed wasn't even there anymore and the mattress lay alone on the floor in a corner. The mattress was covered with the red and gold trimmed comforter and about fifty pillows, setting it up as a bit of a large nest to curl up in. There was a small, burgundy dresser in one of the other corners. Beside the bed was a small nightstand that was of the same wood of the dresser. On the nightstand was a small picture frame with the same picture in it as Engetsu had put at her door.

The walls of the room where covered with reddish wallpaper and the one window she had included had red drapes over it. The window overlooked the courtyard and the Forbidden Forest. Sephiroth's theme from FFVII was playing the background of the room and Sora-chan sat on her bed with her laptop and was typing.

In Slytherin, Engetsu finished her book, Makeout Paradise. That was nasty.

Then why did you read it? Hebi asked.

I wanted to know why it was so interesting that Kakashi would read it during an entire fight.

Oh.

Yeah. Probably should start unpacking my books, huh?

Yeah, you should. Engetsu walked over to her trunk, pulled out her shrunken books, and unshrunk them. She started organizing them into alphabetical order and putting them on the shelves. It would take her most of the night, but as long as she had half an hour of sleep, she would be fine. Actually, even forty-five minutes would be oversleeping for the she-elf. And things were bad if she overslept regularly.

Engetsu! You there? Sora-chan asked in her head and then yawned. How's your room? I had to fix mine a bit.

Engetsu considered not answering for a moment. But, she knew if she didn't, then Sora wouldn't speak to her for at least a week, maybe a month. Engetsu wasn't sure if it was a bad thing or a good thing.

My room's okay. Needs some more book shelves, I just barely started unpacking and the book case is already stuffed.

Okay, I'll bring some over real quick! What's your guys' password?

You had better tell me yours first.

Okakies! It's 'Kairi must die.' Now what's yours?

You won't believe it. 'Elves rule, humans drool.' I kid you not. Anyways, to get to my room, you have to go down the hallway to the right until you see a plaque that says 'Fifth Year Girls.' Go through the door and look for the picture of you and me in our yukatas. You know, the one in the fall, in front of the Tokyo temple? Knock, and I'll let you in. There's no way I'm giving you my personal password.

I know all that already! Did you forget the map that Dumbledore gave me and I configurated it so I can see the map of anything I want in the school with exact detail? Sora asked before picking up six mahogany wooden shelves. Engetsu scowled.

Bring the map. NOW. Anyways, I've got unpacking to do. Engetsu pulled out her clothes and started putting the dresses and robes in the wardrobe.

Okay. Oh yeah! I made a copy for you too. Be there in a moment, bye! Sora-chan said before she cut her friend off from her thoughts.

In about five minutes, Engetsu heard a knock on her door. She walked over and opened it. "Finally. Anyways, aren't you forgetting something when it comes to me and maps?"

"Sorry, I was having some trouble with the shelves." Sora-chan answered. "Yeah, whatever about the map, just thought that you might want one for Vox or something." Sora-chan tossed the shelves to Engetsu.

"That's pretty much all they're good for. Anyways, I can't believe I have that many books. Okay, so I can, but it's still insane. Ah well, want to go to the forest sometime? I have a direct entrance from here."

"Oooo! Okay!" Sora said excitedly. Oh! Hey Hebi!

Konbanwa, Sora-chan. Did my mistress tell you about the book she read?

No, what book?

Make Out Paradise. Engetsu answered while hanging the shelves on the wall.

Sora-chan just laughed and then gave a yawn. "Anyways, I got to get to bed, got classes tomorrow and all. And besides, Sairah's crying for me. Bye bye!" Sora-chan waved and was instantly gone from the room and back in the Gryffindor tower and on her bed, sleeping.


Sora-chan: Like I said earlier, it will be okay! Anyways, please feed the button or we most likely won't update anmore.
