"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 20.- The Order of the Phoenix

Hermione had to change her course a couple of times, and hide some more so the teachers and prefects who were guarding the alleys wouldn't see her. Finally she arrived to the main door and opened it as silently as she could.

'Voldemort may still be out there.' She thought with fear. But she pushed aside that thought. 'I don't care. They're my friends and they need me.'

And with that thought she went outside. She ran to the middle of the grounds where she finally found them. She turned around holding her wand firmly, expecting to find a death eater in any moment.

"They're gone." Eriol said.

Hermione ran to them. He was kneeling on the ground, next to an unconscious Tomoyo. A few steps away Shaoran was trying to wake up Sakura.

"We need to get to the Sorcerers' Room." Hermione told Eriol. "Before someone finds us here."

"Move." Shaoran called taking one of he Sakura Cards in his hands. "Can you please, do us the favor to take us to the Sorcerers' Room."

"Do it, Move." Sakura whispered.

She was conscious, but just barely.

The Card glowed and they all disappeared.

.

When Hermione felt again the ground under her feet she fell to the floor.

Tomoyo was in the bed, and Eriol was sitting next to her. Sakura was on the coach, Shaoran kneeling next to her. And in the rocking chair sat Sonomi, she had been waiting for them.

Hermione stood up and went to Tomoyo's side.

"Don't touch her." Eriol warned. "We don't want you to stay unconscious for one week as last time."

Hermione nodded and sat down on a chair.

"What happened?" She finally asked.

"That man, the one you call Voldemort." Eriol started. "Was going after me. Tomoyo-chan stopped him. He was strangling her. Then she tried to stop him with her power. After almost one full minute it seemed to work, because he left, but Tomoyo-chan fell unconscious. Her power is out of control, we need to wait for her to recover before we touch her."

"How long will it take?" Hermione asked.

"I don't know." Eriol answered sincerely. "Because we don't know exactly what kind of power she could have absorbed from that man."

"Harry is getting suspicious." Hermione said in a low voice. "And I don't like lying to him."

"We have to." Sakura interfered. "If he knew the truth, he would be in greater danger than he already is in."

Hermione sighed and nodded.

That night they all stayed there.

.

The next morning Hermione went to the kitchens to get some food for her friends. In her way back to the tower she found face to face with Prof. Snape.

"Prof. Snape!" Hermione exclaimed, almost dropping the food she was carrying.

"Where are you going with that food Miss Granger?" Prof. Snape asked.

"To my bedroom." She answered. "I haven't have breakfast, neither my friends."

"Well, I doubt all your friends are in your Gryffindor bedroom. Are they?" Snape asked.

Hermione was trembling, she didn't know what to do.

"Severus." A voice called.

Hermione sighed with relief, there was her salvation.

"Sonomi, good morning." Snape received her.

"Hermione-chan, they're waiting for you." Sonomi said.

Hermione nodded.

"Pardon me, I must leave now." Hermione said respectfully, as she got away as fast as she could without looking too suspicious.

"Sonomi..." Snape murmured, he wasn't quite satisfied. "Those kids are hiding something, you know it, I want to find out."

"Those kids." Sonomi repeated. "One of those kids is your goddaughter, and the other are her friends."

"That's what I mean." Snape insisted. "Tomoyo's my goddaughter and you haven't even told her."

"Oh no, that's wrong, she knows." Sonomi said shaking her head. "But she can't have the same trust to you than to her friends, She barely knows you."

"Well, that's because you decided to disappear fifteen years ago, and keep her out of the magic world." Snape insisted.

"Do we have to have this conversation every time we meet?" she asked annoyed.

"I wanna know what's happening!" Snape almost yelled. "I have the right to."

"Don't you understand it's dangerous!" Sonomi did yelled. "You know I'm not, I'm not a common witch, neither is Tomoyo, nor her friends. I don't want to involve you in this."

"She's my goddaughter. I think I'm already involved."

"Don't you understand it!" she looked like she was about to cry. "Daniel died because of this, I don't want you to have the same faith."

"I'm already destined to it."

"Nani?"

"After Lily died, and I thought you likewise, I decided to become a spy. I'm in the death eaters, and at the same time a spy for the Order of the Phoenix."

"The Order..." she reached for a necklace she had around her neck, it was a silver lace with a phoenix's feather.

"I was out there yesterday." He continued. "I saw your daughter fighting for her life against Lord Voldemort himself. I wanna know why she was risking her life."

"You wouldn't understand..." Sonomi murmured.

"Why?! Why don't you let me try?!" he yelled, almost mad.

"We aren't like you Severus." She said, putting a hand on his forehead. "I'm sorry."

"What..." He started, but was unable to finish.

"Saw it not, heard it not, what happened yesterday you now forgot." She chanted.

Snape winked several times. But when he saw clearly he was alone. So he left.

Behind a statue, Sonomi was crying silently.

"It really hurts you, doesn't it Sonomi?" a voice asked.

"It hurts so much to lie to him..." Sonomi murmured. "But he can not know. It would be too dangerous."

"He still loves you." He said behind her.

Sonomi turned around and hugged Dumbledore, sobbing in his shoulder.

"I know, I know." She said between sobs. "But I can't let him die the same way Daniel did. I can't!"

Dumbledore looked at the woman crying next to him. How on the outside she really looked so sure of herself, so auto sufficient; but she was really afraid, and now she was showing it. He couldn't help but feel bad for her, why do always innocent people had to suffer so much? Like Nadeshiko, Sonomi, Lily, his daughter...

.

In the Sorcerers' Room Sakura was already fully recovered. She was sitting on the coach next to Shaoran, while Eriol and Hermione where reading all the books he was able to find earlier that day, anything so they could find out what could be happening to Tomoyo.

Just then Tomoyo's aura flickered several times, and then went back to normal.

"She's in balance now!" Sakura exclaimed happily.

Hermione stood up from her place and touched Tomoyo lightly on her arm.

Suddenly Tomoyo opened her arms, and sat down straightly raising her hand.

"Ah!" She wailed.

Crash!

The flower pot in the little table in front of the bed was broken into a million pieces.

Sakura and Shaoran jumped to their feet on high alert. Eriol dashed to his girlfriend's side, really concerned. Hermione just backed up a little, afraid of what was happening. Tomoyo just looked around, she seemed confused, and really afraid.

"Eriol!" She cried out.

Eriol immediately sat down on her bed, and took her in his arms, rocking her slightly.

"Daidjoubu desu ka hime?" He asked.

"Hai..." she murmured in a low whisper.

"What was that?" Sakura finally asked.

"That..." a voice said. "Was one of Riddle's powers."

Everyone turned to the door, to find Sonomi standing on the doorway.

"What?" Eriol asked.

"Who's that Riddle?" Shaoran asked at the same time.

"Tom Marvolo Riddle." Hermione said. "The heir of Salazar Slytherin, parsel tongue, and the most feared dark wizard from the last two decades."

"Wasn't Voldemort the most feared?" Sakura asked.

"Yes." Hermione said. "Tom Riddle, is Lord Voldemort. He studied in Hogwarts fifty four years ago."

"That's right." Sonomi said sitting down. "He is really powerful, and his most strange gift is the one Tomoyo just showed, destroying things just thinking of it."

"Why would Tomoyo want to destroy something?" Sakura asked.

"She was really in danger last night." Eriol interfered. "It's likely that she thought she was still in danger, so she reacted with fear, turning on that power."

"So that power only works when she is in panic." Shaoran guessed.

"More likely when she is mad." Eriol said.

"But..." Hermione couldn't imagine Tomoyo mad.

"I was mad last night." Tomoyo said in a low voice. "Sakura-chan was almost unconscious, Eriol-kun and Shaoran-kun were tired of fighting, And all I could do was look! I don't have an active power to use in battle!"

"Never underestimate your talents Tomoyo-chan." Eriol said hugging her tightly. "After all, You saved my life."

"So Tomoyo will have that power for good?" Sakura asked.

"It's highly probable." Sonomi said. "She was holding to Voldemort for a long time, so she copied permanently the power."

"Anyway there might be no need for her to get mad enough to use it." Eriol said self confidently.

"About that Tom Riddle..." Shaoran started.

"Really few know about him." Sonomi. "I know because I'm a member from the Order of the Phoenix."

Eriol was really surprised.

"But I don't know how Hermione knows." Sonomi added.

"When Harry, Ron and I were in Second Grade, there were some problems with the Heir of Slytherin, and we found out those details."

"What's that of the Order of the Phoenix, oka-san?" Tomoyo asked.

"About twenty years ago Dumbledore decided to create an Order that would take care of peoples and protect them from the Death Eaters. It was aside from the Aurors, and we had permission to use restricted spells." Sonomi explained. She showed her necklace. "This is the symbol."

"How come I had never seen it?" Tomoyo asked confused.

"In our treasure box." Sonomi explained. "This was my first treasure, it was hidden in the blue cloth, I hadn't wear it in a long time."

"That symbol..." Sakura started.

Se moved her hand and a small box opened, inside was another necklace, identical to the one Sonomi was wearing.

"That must be Nadeshiko's necklace." Sonomi said.

"My oka-san." Sakura was really astonished.

"Yes, she was in the Order. As well as Daniel, his brother Sirius..."

"Wait, brother?" Hermione asked. "I think I missed a conversation here."

"That's right." Tomoyo said. "My father's true last name, as well as mine and my mother's is Black."

"So you're niece, of Harry's godfather!" Hermione was in shock.

"In fact, it's not just that." Sonomi added. "I'm Harry's godmother. And Severus Snape is Tomoyo's godfather."

Hermione was really in shock now.

"Who else was from the Order?" Tomoyo asked to her mother.

"Well Laura Sirius's fiancé, your godfather Severus, Harry's parents Lily and James, Ieran, Xiao Len and some more." Sonomi answered.

"Your parents Shaoran-kun." Sakura said looking at her boyfriend.

Shaoran nodded. He already knew that.

"And this are for you." Sonomi said handing them necklaces with Phoenix's feathers. "They will help you. If members of the Magic Ministry find you making magic just show them these and you won't be punished."

"But under-age wizards must not use magic." Hermione said.

"Hermione-san." Eriol said seriously. "We are in great danger, this was just the first fight, there will be more, and more difficult, and dangerous, we must be able to defend ourselves."

"We aren't pushing you into this Hermy-chan." Tomoyo said sweetly. "You'll decide weather you're with us or not."

"You're my friends." Hermione said bravely. "I won't leave you. I'm in." And she put the necklace on.

So did the rest of them.

.

.

A lot of talk, some explanations. Now you know what happened to Tomoyo, and that power might come in handy later, you'll see. You also know a bit more about Sonomi's past. And about Severus Snape. What's going to happen to him? Vote, give me ideas of what to do with him, and to know if that love he has for Sonomi has a future.

I get really depressed. I mean in one chapter I get ten reviews, then in the next, four. I really want to know how many people are reading this story, and if you like it. Please, leave a review, I beg you.

Okay, that's all for now.

See ya in the next chapter.

Arigato.
