The Hope Spell. By: Princess Lalaith "Harry Potter" and "Card Captor Sakura" Crossover.

Disclaiming: I don't own Card Captor Sakura, nor Harry Potter, *snif*; If I owned any of them now I would be on a vacation around the world, and not sitting here in my house writing this(luckier for you).

Chapter 9.- Talking about boggarts and dementors.

Sakura and company woke up in the Room of Requirement. Everyone, especially Shaoran, were tired. All the Sakura Cards were in their physical form looking at their Mistress.

*I'm alright* she thought.

The Sakura Cards listened to her thoughts, nodded, and turned again into their Card form.

-We should better get out of here, -Tomoyo said. -I can fell Harry and his friends heading this direction.

-Let's go, -Eriol said standing up.

The four of them stood up and went out of the Room of Requirement. They had just hidden next to and Old Statue, when Harry, Hermione, Ron and a few more students got to the place; Harry passed three times in front of the hidden door, and then they all got inside.

-Uff, -Sakura said.

-Sh. -Shaoran murmured.

*Sorry* Sakura said mentally,

*We got out just in time,* Tomoyo thought.

Everyone nodded. Finally all the students where in the Room, so they could abandon their hiding place. Eriol headed to the Teacher's Room, while the rest of them went to Library to finish some Homework.

It was again DADA class. The Gryffindors and Slytherins were inside a big room, all their looks fixed on a closed closet.

"Inside here is a boggart," Eriol told them, "And I'm going to pass you all here at the front. As you should know by your book, and as I know a Professor already taught you, a boggart will turn itself into what you fear the most, and you can defeat it by thinking in something funny and doing the 'Ridíkulo' enchantment. Understood?"

The class nodded.

"Okay," Eriol said, "I'll start calling you one by one, meanwhile It'll be good for you to think about what you fear the most, and remember something funny you can use for your 'Ridíkulo' Enchantment. Longbottom."

Neville got at the front and the boggart jump off the closet, it transform into an ugly man, dressed in a dark robe. Harry recognize him, he was a Death Eater that had attacked Neville and him in June.

Neville swallowed hard, trying to concentrate.

"He won't be able," Parvati said.

"He'll give up." Malfoy laughed said

"You can do it Neville," Harry and Sakura said in low voice.

"Ridíkulo!" Neville finally shouted, the Death Eater was dressed in yellow dress, and had on his head a big hat with a Lion (like the one Luna had wore last year).

Neville let himself to the floor, exhausted.

"Very well done Mr. Longbottom, 5 points for Gryffindor." Eriol said. "Parkinson."

Pansy Parkinson got herself to the front, the boggart turned into some strange monster, and even though she tried hard, she wasn't able to recite the Enchantment.

"You need to practice more Miss Parkinson" Eriol said, "Daidouji."

Tomoyo stand in the front, with the wand in hand. The boggart got out and turned into some strange woman dressed in black, with the hand in her mouth. Sakura recognized that woman, it was the Silent Card.

Tomoyo opened her mouth, but there was no sound coming out. Everyone thought she was just too afraid to talk, but Sakura and Eriol knew the true reason, "The Silent" had stolen her voice. And soon it would also take everyone else's voice. Just then Eriol touched Tomoyo slightly, just Sakura could notice it; and Tomoyo used her powers to take Eriol's voice.

"Ridíkulo!" she shouted just before Silent took her voice again.

A strange figure with headphones appeared in front of silence, and started singing, It was "Song", and just then "Silent" disappeared. Tomoyo had her voice back and returned Eriol his.

Eriol called more names, and the last one was: "Kinomoto."

Sakura got to the front, the boggart jumped in front of her and turned into a black sphere in front of her. Everyone was looking at Sakura, they didn't see anything frightening in a bog black semi-transparent sphere. But Sakura, Eriol, and Tomoyo remembered perfectly well what had happened with that sphere, with "The Emptiness". Sakura let go a tear, but then she pulled herself up.

"Ridíkulo!" she shouted.

The figure of a girl dressed in an Old-fashioned dress, with long hair, and little wings in her back, "The Hope" appeared in front of the black sphere, and made it vanish.

"Ok class," Eriol said, "For the next month we'll see dementors, and the spell used to defeat them; and I'll see that you get to practice with a real dementor, or a replicate of one."

Some of the students exchanged strange glances, they had seen dementors three years ago. As Harry, Hermione and Ron could say the less they wanted was to see them again.

The class ended.

"I see you guys aren't very happy of those dementors." Tomoyo said to Harry and the rest, "I can even say some of the other classmates looked a little afraid. And I really don't see any reason."

"You don't see any reason to be afraid of a dementor?!" Hermione and Ron shouted.

"No," Tomoyo said calmly.

"Why?" Ron asked.

"There's a way to defeat them, right?" Tomoyo said.

"Right." Hermione answer.

"Then why are you so afraid of them?" Tomoyo asked.

"Because the spell used to defeat them is very difficult, is a high level enchantment." Harry explained.

"Well, difficult, but not impossible" Tomoyo pointed out. "There's no reason to be afraid of anyone or anything, unless you don't know how to defeat or deal with it."

Hermione was trying to think of something wise to answer.

*Tomoyo,* Eriol called. *Are you busy?*

*No* Tomoyo replied mentally, *I have the rest of the afternoon free.*

*Would you like to come with me for a walk?* Eriol invited her.

*Sure, I would be very pleased.* Tomoyo said smiling.

Hermione and Harry saw Tomoyo smiling, they were about to ask her why she was smiling.

"Hey guys," Tomoyo said, "I need to go, something to do. Sayonara."

"Sayonara." Harry, Ron and Hermione replied.

Tomoyo walked down the alley, around a corner, and there, Eriol was waiting for her.

"Everything okay?" Eriol asked

"Hai," Tomoyo said smiling.

"I love it when you smile." Eriol said.

"Then I'll always be smiling." Tomoyo replied with a soft voice.

Eriol reached to her, and kissed her.

"No.Eriol.the students.they might see us." Tomoyo murmured between kisses, until she just gave up, put her arms around Eriol's shoulders and answered to the kisses.

By dinner there was a strange rumor going in the Great Hall, Tomoyo heard when two girls of Ravenclaw talked.

"You say that Kinomoto girl turned the boggart into a black sphere, that vanished with a silly girl?" one asked.

Tomoyo imagined the first was "The emptiness", and the silly girl was "The Hope".

"Yes," the other one said. "And Ewan told me that that Li guy did the same."

"That's strange," the first one said, "But you remember what happened in the D.A. meeting, they were both there, together."

The other one just nodded.

Tomoyo left and went to Sakura, to tell her what she had just listened. When Sakura heard it she couldn't find what was wrong.

"Don't you understand?" Tomoyo said, "They could think something is going between you and Shaoran."

"Well, there is something between us, we are a couple. That's no news." Sakura said.

"Yeah," Tomoyo said, "But how will you explain about "The Emptiness" and "The Hope"?"

"There's nothing to explain," Sakura said "They know nothing about the Cards, and I'll be careful and tell Shaoran too so the rest of the students don't suspect. And in the other hand, your boggart turned into "The Silent", and you made a copy of "The Song" to defeat it."

"That's right but." Tomoyo started, but didn't got to finish, because Harry arrived with Ron.

"Sakura," he called.

"Yes Harry." She said.

"Tomorrow we are having practice," Harry said, "Because on Saturday we'll have our first game, against Hufflepuff."

"Alright," Sakura said, "I'll be there."

Harry and Ron left to where Hermione was waiting.

"What happened?" Hermione asked.

"Well they were talking in a low voice, and they stopped the moment we got near. But I don't think there's anything strange in that." Ron said.

Hermione sighed, and raised and eyebrow.

"Do you still suspect of them?" Harry asked, "I don't see anything wrong with them."

"There probably is nothing wrong with them," Hermione said, "But you have to admit there are too much strange things, too much."

Harry and Ron just looked at each other and sighed. They didn't think it was okay to suspect of friends. But, friends, how long have they know them, less than a month. They didn't want to admit it, but Hermione was right.
