We go where?
"Sorting?" asked Usagi who was still standing on the dais with the rest of her senshi and the guys. They stood there looking at Dumbledore in confusion. A small voice peeped up and asked the question that was on everyone's mind "Mommy?" asked Rini who was looking up at Usagi "what's a sorting?" Usagi looked down at her daughter and sweet dropped, " I don't know, but I'm sure we will find out soon"
Professor Dumbledore walked over to the middle of the room. He stood there and waited for silence to take over the great hall. He turned and smiled at the two groups that stood behind him. "I am glad to have guests but since we do not know how long then will be here I feel it is best the they are sorted in to our houses. Professor McGonagall walked into the room carrying a small stool and an old hat that was patched.
"Now, I would like to start with the young man with the cat ears." Said Professor McGonagall "My ears ain't cat ears they dog ears ya old bat." Inuyasha said as he sat on the stool. "Well it seems to the we have a half demon here." Said the sorting hat as it was placed on his head. " Ya I a demon what's it to ya you ragged old piece of felt " well how rude" The hat twitched on his head and then says loudly "Gryffindor" as McGonagall removed the hat she pointed toward where harry and his friends were sitting "over there if you please". As he was walking away she turned to him and said "and for your information I turn in to a cat, Not a bat"
"Kagome if you would please come here" Kagome looked around the room as she turned to sit on the stool. "A priestess, and one of great bravery, with a strong love hidden in her heart, there is but one place for you to be my dear". "Gryffindor" Kagome sighed and then walked over toward Inuyasha. "What is going on wench?" he asked in his normal rude voice "Inuyasha, SIT!" every one turned to see the white haired man with the cat ears fall from his seat on the bench and lay face first on the floor of the great hall. From over at the Slytherin table everyone was laughing, "look at the poor kitty," said Draco who looked over at Kagome and winked.
As Draco did that Inuyasha was getting up and saw "Hey rat-face, keep winking at Kagome and see what happens to ya." Growled Inuyasha "Oh I ain't no cat got that I'm a dog demon." Said Inuyasha as he flexed his claws "Inuyasha, Don't." warned Kagome "Fine I'll stop… for now."
"Songo, if you please?" questioned McGonagall "Sure" Songo said as she sat down on the stool "You face a great foe. He has taken much from you a sibling, a brother. Yet still you hope," "Hufflepuff" said the sorting hat as people from Hufflepuff stood up from their seats. As Songo was walking off the dais Miroku said "Well get him back Songo really soon just be calm." "Thanks Miroku." Replied Songo as she went to sit down.
"Miroku, You may have a seat." said McGonagall "Yes Ma'am" As the sorting hat was put on Miroku's head, It said " Ahh! You're a Monk. Such a heavy burden to carry. But you live instead of worry what might happen." "You belong to… Hufflepuff!" "Yes, I'm with Songo." Miroku said to himself as he went to sit down
"Rin, will you please sit?" McGonagall said but before Rin went to sit down she looked up at Sesshomaru to see if was ok to. With a nod of his head Rin went to seat on the stool. "So much pain at such a young age. He saved you from the dark and brought you back to the light. You would do anything for him. You were strong though it all. No worrying if he would not save you because you knew he would and with that the house you will be placed is…Gryffindor!" said the sorting as Rin turned to Sesshomaru and smiled at him as she turned to sit next to Kagome and Inuyasha at the Gryffindor table.
McGonagall turned and look over at Dumbledore. He smiled at her and then he looked over at Sesshomaru, "I have a place for you, also if Setsuna, Haruka, and Michiru would please come and stand over here. We will sort the rest of our guests, and I will explain the idea I wish to broach with the four of you. The three women nodded and walked over to the professor, Sesshomaru just inclined his head slightly and waited where he was.
McGonagall stood there and when Dumbledore nodded she turned toward the Senshi she smiled at them. "If you would not mind coming over here Hotaru I will sort you". As the hat was placed on the young girl's head for once everyone could see the hats reaction is shuddered for all to see. 'Ah, you have great power young one, the power to destroy is linked to your very life. To have such power but you also have the determination to use your power for good. But the link to such a power can mean your home in only one house ' the words like the ones the others had spoken to them were spoke inside of her head but then the hat spoke for all to hear "Slytherin" the hat yelled. The students at the Slytherin table looked at Hotaru with different emotions on their faces, some with disgust at how weak the girl looked, others with fear, they still heard the echoes of her power, and other with curiosity. And one, Draco, looked at her with slight interest till his eyes fell once again on Usagi.
Professor McGonagall waited for the young girl to take her seat before looking up at the next person to be sorted. " Ms Ami, if you would please some here?" the blue haired woman walked over toward the stool and sat with grace and wisdom that few there had ever seen. ' You have a great mind, also great power, but you think all things out first. Such intelligence will bring you to only one house but with your intelligence you are brave and that combination gives you a home in one house' "Gryffindor" the hat yelled out and Ami rose and walked over to where the students of Gryffindor stood and clapped.
Without waiting to be called the blonde man who had stood with Ami walked over to her and stood by her side, " Mr. Zoicite, I am sorry but you must be sorted like the others, " I go where my princess goes," he said and waited for her to rebuke him. "Let them stay together Minerva, it will make them happy and I doubt there is much we could do to separate them." Professor Dumbledore said from his place on the dais.
Professor McGonagall just nodded and then looked to the next couple. " Miss Rei?" the professor called and the fiery woman walked over to the stool and sat down. As the sorting hat was placed on her head she looked at it and then said to the professor, "this thing make one wrong more and its going up in flames". Some of the students heard Rei and looked at her waiting to see if the hat would really go up in flames. "Don't blow it up Mars" came the reply from Setsuna, " that hat is older than you are" Rei just shrugged and as the hat was placed on her head she made a small flame in her hand. 'Such heat, for someone so young, You have great power and the drive to use that power, you have a drive to be the best yet you count your friend more that you, well then there is only one place for you, better be ' "Gryffindor". With the hat's pronouncement Rei got up and walked toward the cheering table. Jadeite then walked over toward McGonagall, she lifted the hat but he just walked by and walked to Rei's side, the look he gave the teachers said clearly with Zoicite had said earlier ' where his princess was that is where he would be'.
Sighing McGonagall looked at the seven people remaining. " I assume that each gentleman will be following his lady where ever they go?" asked the slightly annoyed teacher, each man nodded and pulled their loves closer.
"Makoto" the professor said, " you are next." the tall woman walked over to the stool and grimaced at how low the stool was, sighing she sat down and the hat started to whisper to her. 'You, my dear girl gave me quite a shock when I was place on your hear, like you other friends. I was singed by the last young lady, and frozen by the first, you group and a strange one but you have bravery and strength to take care of your friends.' "Gryffindor" the hat yelled and Makoto stood and walked over to where Rei was. Half way there she turned to see Nephlite take her arm and walk the rest of the way toward the table.
Minako walked up to the hat with out being called. Many of the young men in the room were staring as the senshi of love and beauty; one was even brave enough to whistle as her. Malachite's eyes scanned the room for the boy and the look he sent him was enough to have the boy squeak and fall out of his seat in fear. With the hat on her head Minako waited for something to happen then the hat spoke to her, and the ditzy blonde was all love was very apparent. Giggling for being scared she listened to the hat and waited to be sorted. 'You are one of love but you have a hidden bravery that very few can match, there is only one place for you my dear'. "Gryffindor" the hat yelled and the boys at the Gryffindor table cheered the girls sighed and wondered why they were getting stuck with all of the girls the guys wanted. Malachite walked over to Minako and took her hand, lacing their fingers together the two, so totally in love walked to the table and stood with their friends and waited for the last three of their group to be sorted.
Usagi looked over to Mamoru and then down and Rini, " mommy are we going to be sorted now?" the little girl asked. "Don't worry baby, we will go where even you mom goes, we stick together" Mamoru answered. Then looking at Professor Dumbledore and McGonagall he said, "we will stay together, where ever Usagi is 'sorted' to that is where we will go." With a nod to McGonagall from Dumbledore she motioned for Usagi to come forward the try on the hat.
"Slytherin, put her in Slytherin," Draco chanted and his eyes stared hungrily at Usagi. Hotaru heard him and turned toward him "I would also like it if the princess and her princes join us in this house, I will have more of my friends with me." Draco then turned and looked at her and shook his head and just turned back toward the sorting that was taking place.
'Such goodness inside you young one, and such love, you had to grow up very fast yet now you are so strong and willing to die, and you have. Yes, my dear I can see even that, such loyalty and bravery there is but one place for you.' " Gryffindor". The Gryffindor table cheered and with a serene smile the three walked over toward the table with their friends.
Raising his hands up to silence the noise in the room, Dumbledore looked over to the four remaining people. " There is going to be a fight one that the wizarding would alone can control or that you can control in your past, Inuyasha, or that with such infinite power, even you and you and your senshi can win." Each group looked at the other and the senshi looked toward Setsuna, questions in their eyes. "I believe that it is time that we add some classes to the ones we already teach. For those of you who wish to learn more about the future I ask you to study with Princess Setsuna, she had such knowledge of the future, that she must already know that I ask her to take her job as the divination teacher back". He then turned to her and she smiled and nodded, "I would be honored to take my job back professor."
"Also as Madam Hooch has taken leave this year I ask, Princess Haruka to work with those of you who need help to learn to fly. She, you shall see is one with the very wind." Haruka then stood up taller and smiled at the students, " I would be proud to help" then she bowed her space time sword flashing in her hand as she bowed.
"Lady Michiru, I ask of you to help the students who have some affinity with water but also the other who she fear of it," he looks toward the composed young woman and wait's her decision. " I will help them, for the beauty of the sea should be open for all to enjoy."
Turning to the last person and only 'man' in the group, " Lord Sesshomaru, I ask of you to teach the students how to protect themselves, there maybe times when the fight will be with out wands, they will need to know how to fight hand to hand. And with other weapons as well. "
The tall white haired 'man looked at then old man and then over to Rin, the girl was smiling and nodded " If I kill one of the insolent mortals it will not be my fault"
"What?" Came a voice for the Slytherin table, " how can we have a girly man teach us any thing about fighting, he mostly likely can not even fight himself". A growl can be heard form the Gryffindor table, " speak of my brother like that again, and I will rip your heard or your body you worthless rat-faced human." Sneered Inuyasha, then a voice from behind Draco made him quake " turn around and see what I can do with my sword you worthless human". Draco turned and looked at Sesshomaru standing behind him with his Tokijin out and ready to slice the boy in half. " Lord Sesshomaru-sama, Please don't kill him," said Rin for over at the Gryffindor table, " he's not worth killing." Looking over at Rin, Sesshomaru, sighed and then looked Draco in the eye, watch your back human, she won't always be around.
