Next day
I followed Harry and the others into a empty compartment and sat down. I took out my main katana and began to polish it.
The train began to move and they waved good bye to their parents, in Harry's case to Remus and the Weasleys.
Harry and Ron played exploding snap and Hermione read a book. I had finished with my sword a while ago and I was now going over my lesson plans.
The compartment door slid open to revile a pale boy with platinum blond hair and gray eyes; he was flanked with two thick broad boys. "Ah, Potty, Weaslbe, and mudblood. I half expected you all to be split up.
I didn't look up from my lesson plans, but my mouth moved. "Out." I said firmly, my head still bent as for him not to see my face. He sneered.
"And why should I, you're just as much a freak as they are with that ridiculous hair." I could feel Harry and the others get rather angry, I myself was boiling inside. But instead, I closed my folder of papers and stood, my hair still covering my face.
"Out fucker." I said. He scoffed.
"And what if I don't want to mudblood?"
I growled I didn't know what that meant but by Harry and the others reactions it wasn't good. My hand gripped the hilt of my smaller sword.
With a flash it was drawn out and my arm was up, the glistening blade along with it.
I raised my head and my eyes glittered all silver. "You need to check your little ego cause right now it seems to be a bit too big for this compartment." After that remark I brought the blade down and the blunt edge struck him in the shoulder causing him to fly back unconscious his eyes like -
I smirked and slid the door back shut and sheathed my katana back and sat down still fuming, my samurai side still in control.
"Whoa." Harry said.
"Shut up Harry." Ron said his face in his hands and his eyes were closed. "I need to burn that to my memory forever." He said drawing a laugh from me. It was not the usual soft, barely there laugh, it was a full hearted laugh.
"Hey your eyes are all silver, where is the blue?" Hermione asked. I stared at her. Then realization crossed me and she raised an eyebrow. "Now there is blue!" she said confused.
"Sorry." I mumbled, getting my papers back out.
The rest of the train ride was uneventful, I met Neville and Luna, ran into Malfoy again and scared him shitless (not literally! XD)
Soon it stopped and I followed them to a bunch of white carriages. They were being pulled by a bunch of interesting horses.
Harry caught me staring at them. "You can see them can't you?" he asked. I nodded looking at him curiously. "You've seen death." He said bluntly. I looked at him in shock.
"Oh." I said and climbed into the carriage with the others, Harry following.
As we began to get closer, the castle came into view. I gasped and my jaw dropped slightly. "Oh…my…kami." I muttered.
"Kami?" Hermione asked. I tore my eyes from the lavish sight and to Hermione.
"Hai Kami." I said.
"What does it mean?" she asked. I was confused, she was speaking the same language as I was just before, but I couldn't understand.
"Nani?" I asked, cocking my head to the side in question. Harry's eyes widened.
"Hermione what is that translation spell?" he asked.
"Tranlsture Mangish." She said. "But why do you need that?"
"She doesn't understand our language." He said. I raised my eyebrow. But I understood the word language.
"AIE!" I gasped slapping my forehead. "Baka, baka, baka!" I said as I hit my head. I looked into one of my pockets and pulled out another necklace like the one I was wearing. I took off that one and put on the new necklace. "It has a translator spell on it, and I have quite a lot more, but they only last for a certain amount of time." I said shrugging.
We soon got to the castle and got out of the carriages. I pulled my hair up in a low pony tail and straitened my robes.
We walked into the Great Hall as Harry had called it. There were four long tables and one long table at the other end of the hall.
Dumbledore was sitting in the middle of the table. I walked Harry to his table and then walked over to Dumbledore.
He motioned me to sit next to a greasy haired man with grey eyes, clad in black robes. I ignored his little glares and sat down.
Once the students were settled Dumbledore stood up. "Welcome to another year at Hogwarts. As you all know, Voldemort is back." He said. The students and most of the teachers flinched. I just raised my eyebrow. "So there are some rules, but before I will tell you them, let us have the sorting.
Soon all of the first years were sorted and Dumbledore was standing yet again. "The rules this year are the usual, students are forbidden to enter the Forbidden Forest, no magic in the hall ways, you must have a note from a teacher to use the restricted section of the library, and the new rule is no one, including the teachers, are allowed to leave the castle after 9:00 pm." Some of the students groaned.
"Also I would like to announce that our new Defense against the Dark Arts teacher will be taught by Professor Maniara Jaganshi." (i couldn't find another . )I stood and the hall burst into applause, some of the boys were whistling. I saw Harry wave to me and clap. I sat down and the hall settled down.
"My last words are…get full!" he said and sat down. Gasps filled the hall as a enormous feast appeared out of no where.
My eyes widened as I saw some of my favorite dishes and a pair of chopsticks appeared in front of me. I saw a bottle of sake and a small sake cup. I poured some and took a sip. It was delicious.
"Hello, My name is Minerva McGonagall I teach transfiguration." A stern woman said smiling and holding a hand out. I nodded and took it. She spotted the sake and looked confused. "Mind if I ask what all of this is?" she asked. I snorted slightly.
I began to explain what everything was called and made of. "My favorite is oden." I said putting some into my mouth and then taking a sip of the strong sake. "Would you like some, it's really strong though." I said and another sake cup appeared.
"Sure why not." She said and took the cup and I poured some into it. She took a small taste and her face slightly screwed up. "Oh my, that is strong!" she said but took another sip. "But it is very good." She said.
"What is strong?" Dumbledore asked leaning over.
"Sake." I said. He smiled and clapped his hands. Bottles of sake appeared in front of all of the teachers. "Eh?" I gasped.
"I believe some teachers will like this quite a lot." He said, taking a sip of his own.
"Oh, well I warn you, don't drink the bottle too fast or you will be very drunk, if you drink it little by little you won't get drunk, too much at least." I said.
you're still trusting too much! my mind yelled. I mentally rolled my eyes. who cares, I need to have some fun the sake was getting to me.
Soon some of the teachers were laughing rather loudly. The students didn't notice, but Harry, Ron, and Hermione did.
I took a swig of the drink and coughed feeling rather light headed. Soon the deserts came and then it was all over.
Dumbledore stood, not even swaying, but I could tell he was slightly drunk. "Alright, now that we are full of food," (and sake) I muttered in Minerva's ear, she giggled a bit drunk, "It's off to bed." He finished.
The students went to their dorms and I stood, swaying on my feet. I noticed that Harry was standing at the doors. I smiled.
"Dumbledore, where will I be staying?" I asked.
"In the DADA office, a room was done for you." He said. I nodded.
"I'll have Harry show me where to go." He nodded and I began to walk towards Harry.
"Are you ok Sensei?" he asked seeing me sway. I blinked.
"No ploblem, pro noblem, ro pobnem." I slurred and I hiccupped.
"You're drunk!" he said in surprise. I looked up at him.
"Really? I didn't notice." I staggered and fell onto Harry causing the both of us to fall. I laughed, hard. "Can fu help me? I need to go fo the DADA flass woom." My words got jumbled.
He nodded and we went to the class room. He had to keep me from falling, but every time he did I would laugh and hiccup.
Finally we got there, and even Harry was laughing. We walked to the dorm part of the room that was in the office.
I fell onto the bed, but accidentally took Harry with me. "Hahahaha!" I laughed and buried my face in his back. "I haven't done this in forever." I said still giggling.
