Unknown to Sakura or Ying Fa… Eriol wasn't the only one who seemed to have heard her conversation… in fact. Two other people heard it, but none dangerous…
Who are they? You're very own Harry Potter, and Albus Dumbledore.

Soon Herbology ended, and Sakura took a look at her schedule, 'Transfiguration…' she thought to herself.
'Where's that?' asked Ying Fa.
'Um… down the hall…' Sakura replied as she made her way to class.
'You're not sure are you? …. Damn this school is too big for it's own good... maybe we should ask someone?'
Sakura have a mocking gasp, 'Ying Fa? Suggesting to ask help?' Sakura gave a giggle.
Ying Fa pouted with a huff, 'Hey, not my problem if you're late for class.'
Sakura was about to answer back when he bashed into someone.
"Oh! I'm so sorry." Sakura said as she looked down so see who she bumped into to see cold grey blue eyes.
Draco pushed her off, "You better be."
'Sakura! Let me take over! Let me take overrr! I wanna beat his ass for being rude! LET ME-'
Sakura glared at him slightly, as he began to walk away, but she noticed the book he was holding was a textbook for Transfiguration.
"Oh! Wait!" she called.
Draco turned around, "What?" he asked rudely.
"Are you going to Transfiguration?"
Draco still glaring nodded.
Sakura smiled, "Great! I'll follow you, I don't know the way…"
Draco rolled his eyes, "Yeah what ever, come on."
Sakura's smile brighten a bit, "Thank you." She ran a bit to catch up with him.
Draco glared at her.
Sakura looked at him, "Don't bothering glaring at me… I grew up around someone with a similar glare, and had a friend who glared like you… it doesn't affect me." She said, "I'm Sakura Kinomoto by the way…"
'Argh… why do you always try to make friends?' asked Ying Fa, 'If it were my body, I would've punch him out already!'
'Just drop it Ying Fa…'Ying gave a frustrated sigh, 'Fine.'
"And?" asked Draco.
"Well, I was wondering what you're name was, I only know your last name from Defence Against the Dark Arts…"
"It's Draco. Draco Malfoy."
Sakura smiled, "Nice to meet you… even though I know most Slytherins don't get along with Gryffindors…"
Draco opened the classroom door and let her in, Sakura smiled at him for the last time, "Thanks again, and sorry for bumping into you." She said before she found a seat by Harry and Eriol.
"What were you doing with Malfoy?" Harry and Ron whispered to Sakura. Hermione also gave Sakura a questioning look.
Eriol just chuckled, 'Sakura's up to her charms again making friends with the most unlikely types of people.' He thought to himself.
"I bumped into him looked for the classroom… found out he too, had transfiguration, and followed him… he didn't seem to mind." Sakura replied calmly.
The Golden trio looked at each other, 'Malfoy being nice?' was where their thoughts went.
Class went on, as Professor McGonagall explain more about Animagus, which quickly caught the attention of Sakura and Ying Fa.
Soon enough class ended, and everyone packed their books away and headed to lunch.
Harry, on the other hand, said he'd catch up later and headed towards Dumbledore's office.
Before he could say anything, the gargoyle jumped aside and Harry went up.
"Harry… what brings you here?" asked Dumbledore.
"Well sir… I'm not sure how to say this… without sounding… crazy." Harry began.
Dumbledore nodded motioning him to sit.
Harry took a seat in front of Dumbledore's desk.
"I can assure you Harry, that whatever it is, it won't make you sound crazy…" Dumbledore said.
Harry nodded silent for a few minutes before he spoke up, "I hear Sakura talking to herself, but… she isn't talking out loud… does that make sense?"
Dumbledore nodded rubbing a hand over his long beard, "Hmm… this seems like a problem… oh, no, no, no… not for you Harry… but for Sakura… I might as well call for her…"
Seconds later, a faint, "HOE!" was heard from the direction of the great hall, and then, minutes later the doors opened yet again to see Peeves float in with a trembling Sakura following him.
Dumbledore gave a slight glare at Peeves, "Peeves… I haven't asked you to get her, you know as well as any other ghost in this castle, that she is deathly afraid of them."
Peeves shrugged, "My bad?" he asked laughing, "Besides, McGonagall seemed busy so I took the job."
Dumbledore sighed and dismissed him, Harry, who rushed to Sakura's side comforted her.
Dumbledore waited for Sakura to calm down, before talking to her.
'Sakura, Sakura… god! It was just a ghost!' said Ying Fa.
'But-But-But-''No Buts! We have to work on your fear of ghosts… not all of them are evil or bad…'
Harry gave a look to Dumbledore, "Did you hear that?" Harry asked.
Sakura's head snapped up before quickly shutting her mind completely, 'I keep forgetting to block my mind.' She cursed to herself.
Sakura felt Ying Fa nod.
Dumbledore chuckled, "Yes Harry, every telepath can hear that."
"Telepath?" asked Harry before he looked at Sakura.
"Yes, what you're hearing is Sakura's thoughts." Dumbledore explained before he turned to Sakura, "I seem to hear a lot of your… thoughts." Dumbledore chuckled when Sakura blushed.
"Well… I know Occlumency, but… back home I never used it, because I my friends, and brother aren't telepaths… I didn't think that there'd be any here… so I'm not used to blocking my mind…" Sakura explain.
Harry looked at Sakura, "do you often talk to yourself?" he asked.
Sakura laughed nervously, her blush increasing.
'Ying Fa, what are we doing to do?'
'Can't you just erase that memory or something?' she asked.
"Harry…" Began Dumbledore, seeing the concentrated look on Sakura face, "I don't want you to speak a word of this, and don't ask question… Sakura will give the answers when the time comes…"
Sakura sighed in relief as she gave Harry a pleading look.
Harry nodded, and Sakura smiled at him.
As they both turned to leave, Sakura remembered, "Dumbledore-sensei… Tomorrow I-" she began, but eyes Harry.
"I know, I'll arrange it with the Professors."
Sakura nodded thanking him, "Oh... and sorry about the old man comment..." she added with a blush.
With thatm Sakurafollowed Harry out, and they went to eat lunch.

The rest of the day went by quickly, and soon it was last period for the day.
Sakura talked happily with Eriol as they both made their way to Potions.
"And then, Yamazaki began to confuse our new maths sensei with this tale about how numbers and math was created and how it mixed in with chocolate and teddy bears." Sakura giggled.
"I see he's still up for his old tricks."
Sakura nodded, "But before he could get to the climax of the tale, Chiharu-chan come in pulls him by the ear and drags him away saying that ever famous sentence, 'LIES, LIES! DON'T BELIEVE A WORD HE SAYS!' catching everyone's attention."
Eriol chuckled, "Oh, how happened to Sasaki-san and Terada-sensei?" he asked.
"Oh! They're together now, they fought for their rights, and everything, but the only catch was that, Terada-sensei can't teach Rika-chan." She said sadly, "The board thought that if Rika-chan was in his class, he'd give her high marks because he loves her… even though we all know how smart Rika-chan is."
Eriol nodded, "Well, at least they can be together ne?"
Sakura nodded.
"What happened to you're Tomodachi, Daidouji-san?" (Tomodachi-best friend)
"Oh, Tomoyo-chan moved to America to expand her mother's toy company… so I haven't heard from her much lately."
Eriol nodded understanding.
They took their seats in the front when Professor Slughorn came in.
"Oh! It seems like I have a new student here…" he said.
Sakura smiled.
Slughorn grinned brightly, "It truly is an honour to have you here C-" he stopped remember Dumbledore's words, "Ms. Kinomoto… You're father was an honourable man, I sent flowers for my regards to what happened…" he said.
Sakura smiled, "Thank you." A light blush on her cheeks when she noticed everyone was looking at her.
"Wait till my old friends hear that I'm teaching the C-" he stopped again with a sigh, "My dear… I'm sorry… I can't contain my excitement of having you choosing my class." He said.
Sakura laughing nervously, and nodded, "It's alright…"
Eriol chuckled knowing exactly what was happening.
'This guy is going to blow our cover…' said Ying Fa.
After that was said, Sakura blocked her mind, 'Maybe, but let's hope that it'll last us to the end of the year.' Sakura replied back.
Harry, who heard, who he thought was Sakura's thought wondered, 'What was she really here for? What is she hiding? What cover?'
Harry didn't seemed to be the only one wondering, Eriol, who was right next to Sakura, heard Ying Fa's thought, and wondering what exactly was one of his best friends hiding from him?
In Potions, they began to learn about a potion called, 'Feathered Hope', and of course, Harry was first to finish with the help of the 'Half Blood Prince' though Sakura wasn't to far behind and finished second.
Hermione finished right after, as she glared at Harry for cheating again.
'I don't get why you have to learn Feathered Hope…' said Ying Fa.
'Well… it's a healing potion…' Sakura replied.
'With a lame name.'
Sakura shrugged, 'but it's helpful.'
'But what are the chances that you'll have that potion with you at all times, or have all the ingredients to make it?'
Sakura shrugged again, 'I don't know… it can be a benefit…'
'If you can remember all the steps when you're in a panic… real benefit.' Ying said sarcastically.
'Stop being a negative thinker.'
'Stop being a positive thinker.'
Sakura sighed realizing that this'll get nowhere, 'Why do we even bother arguing?'
'It's fun?'
'Really?''Hey! If you're thinking just because I'm "Evil" doesn't mean I can't have fun!'
'I wasn't thinking that!''Uh-huh, sure…'
'Ying Fa…''Alright, alright, you weren't thinking it… but just wait until tomorrow! It's going to be the best day of you're life!'
'Better not do anything rash!''Me? Now why would I do that?' Ying Fa asked laughing.
'Oh boy…'Suddenly the bell rang and it was break again for an hour before supper.
'Tomorrow is going to be one heck of a day…' was Sakura's last thought before she headed towards the common room, to relax a bit, since it soon, was the end of one eventful day.
