Shawn opened the door.
As usual he had woken up before sunrise.
When he was at the Dursleys he used the time to exercise and train.
Shawn didn't intend to stop that at Hogwarts.
He swiftly and silently made his way to the entrence of the castle.
Shawn exited and walked to edge of the forest that was outside.
'Kireek?' he thought.
'Yes,' the joined voice of the soulscythes replied.
'Is there a way to get my armour? I can compress things into small blocks but to store them I need my armour.'
'We sense a photon charged item inside the castle.The signature is almost identical to the armour most hunter wear. Its postion is still unknown. As you discover more of the castle,We will be able to tell in which area the item is.'
'Why am I able to hide the soulscythes and not my other weapons?'
'The scythes are a manifestation of our own energy, when we merged we bound our energy to yours.That's why you can decide to hold our energy and thus canceling the image of the weapon.'
'Could I do this at well? use my own energy as a weapon?'
'At this moment, no. You currently lack the training to create and hold the image,although your training with the Arkz has given you the basics, and your own advanced training in altering it.'
Shawn caught up, 'The shadowweapons, right?'
'Indeed.'
'The only way to get better is to train, so I am going to do just that.' Shawn stated as he closed the link.'

The 'meeting' had a duration of 5 minutes.
Shawn held his fists in front of his face,a brown siluete of a katana shot from one end.
He focused more and the katana changed into a invisible shape.
Only a shimmer of light betrayed the presence of it.
What already was a dangerous weapon became an even more lethal weapon.
Shawn slashed through the air, starting a deadly dance.
Opponents, only visible to Shawn, fell at the accurcy and power of the katana.
When the sun rose, it's beams illuminating the focused air of the sword, Shawn was surrounded by slashes of red and orange.
The sun rose, and soon Shawn's slashes became less.
He stopped, panting and sweaty from the workout.
He used a few minutes to catch his breath and started walking to the castle.
He went back the same way, stealthy and quick and returned to the room.
Shawn took his old postion against the wall and started meditating.
The answers he got from 'Kireek' were unusual, but then again when Shawn was still a beginner Kireek had asked him 'to become stronger to impress me'.
The soulscythes were dangerous, but their knowledge was invaluable at the moment.
Shawn didn't want to think about the concequenses,should one of the wizards recieve the powers of the scythes.
'I hope they will not take over..yet,' Shawn thought, 'the enhancement of my body can be useful, but if they get complete control...I am the only one that can stop them and their host, in this world at least. I wonder why the scythes are on this planet anyway?'
Shawn's eyes widened as he realised something, 'Did humans destroy more then one planet? First Earth then Corina,when the meteor struck and then Ragol maybe next.'
Always draining a planet's recources and moving on, to another suitable planet. Maybe humans aren't so different from parasites. Then it could be that Newmans are actually human wizards, mutanting by the vapours photon creates? Records stated that the first contact was made after the meteor struck. It also fits that newman and human children look alike, before one side shows mutations.The power is constant to the training, but humans on Pioneer can easily use magic or photon. So were does it end? I need to stop thinking, it's giving me a headache.'

Shawn slowly opened his eyes, as someone knocked at the door.
"Yes?"
"It's Filch, Dumbledore wants you and the girl to get ready for the sorting."
"I'll wake her."
He made his way to the bed.
"Hermione, wake up," he said while gently shaking her.
"Just two more minutes, mom, it's vacation," the girl muttered.
"Tell me what is one plus one?"
"Two,that's easy."
"What is the time?"
"It's seven AM."
"Which day is today?"
"Tuesday."
Shawn was suprised, dispite being almost asleep she answered his questions correctly.
"What is Barta?"
"Barta is a low level freezing technique, useable by people who learned to minipulate Photon."
Shawn rose an eyebrow, it seemed that she knew the answer of any question asked to her.
'Well, this could be fun,' Shawn thought, "how is it that you know all of this?"
"When people sleep, some reach a state of collective subconsiousness, what one person knows the others know too."
"Who knows the photon techniques?"
"Harry Potter, Shawn Flame and Tom Riddle."
"Who is Tom..."
Shawn was interupted by Flich, "Hurry up, will you!"
"Yeah, the girl doesn't want to wake up."
"Then throw water over her."
Shawn smirked, as he cooled one hand using Barta.
He lifted the covers and placed the hand on Hermione's back.
The girl eyes opened in shock.
"SHAWN, I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!"
Shawn smiled, "Filch is waiting for us, we will be sorted before breakfast."
"Fine," The girl said, "Could you turn around, I want to get dressed."
"I'll be waiting outside."

Hermione joined the two males ten minutes later.
After being led to the doors of the great hall, they had to wait again.
Filch took one last look at the two, Shawn not concerned and Hermione also calm but still a little bit nervous.
Filch entered the great hall and moments after that they heard Dumbledore speak.
"As you have heard yesterday, some students didn't arrive. Later that evening they appeared, A girl sprained her ankle and somebody helped her. It caused both of them to miss the boatride across the lake. They had to walk around the lake.
They arrived safely, but missed the sorting.
So Harry Potter and Hermione Granger will be sorted now.

Shawn opened the door, "Dumbledore, I told you Harry Potter declined."
Gasps were heard.
"Harry, my boy..."
"I told you, I am not your boy."
"But."
Shawn sighed, "If this is going to happen everytime we meet, I am leaving."
The students were shocked.
"I think my skills aren't worthy to be used here."
Snape was proven to be most impatient.
"Just like your father, you think you are above the rest."
"I am not above the rest, others place me there. As for my father, I didn't have the chance to know him."
Suddenly a voice rang called within Shawn.
'Shawn.'
'Kireek? what is it?"
'One of the teachers has two souls within him.'
'Who?'
'The one with the tulband.'
'Right,' Shawn glanced at the person, 'What do you feel from him?'
'Evil.'

Snape shouted something, insults.
Shawn stopped listening, he turned to the headmaster.
"As much fun as this bickering is, we need to be sorted.
Dumbledore glared at Snape, shutting him up.
"You are right, would you please put on the sorting hat."
"Sure, see it isn't that hard to say please."

Shawn walked up and placed the sorting hat on his head.
Nothing happened.
suddenly the hat spoke,"I would like it if you lowered your mental shields."
Shawn rubbed the back of his head, "sorry, it's a habit."
'Remarkable, the shields you placed. I see darkness in your mind. What is causing it?'
'If you promise that what you see in my mind is not shared, I'll drop my shields.'
'All your shields?'
'Still some things are better left alone.'
'You are right, and I promise your mind and thoughts are safe with me."
Shawn closed his eyes and lowered his mental shields.

The sorting hat felt the shields lower.
'This is quite odd, you are really mature for your age."
'I had to grow up fast,' Shawn replied, thinking of the first years at the Dursley's.
'It seems your magic is far more developed then other.'
'I learned to focus it in martial arts, as chi.'
'lifeforce, interesting. Your technique is impressive.'
'Thank you.'
'You are powerful yet you aren't corrupted, you are wise yet you seek knowledge.'
'Wise isn't the same as being smart.'
'You are loyal to your friends, and forgiving to your enemies. you seek no difference, no past. You are right, Hogwarts isn't the right place for you.'
'But for the love of my parents, I will stay here.'
'I see, now where should you go. Lion,Snake,Badger,Eagle. You aren't drawn to one house in peticular.'
'I've drawn enough attention as it is, the lions are the house everybody think I belong, so I'll go there.'
'Really, and how do you know that?'
'Both James and Lily Potter were in Gryffindor,' Shawn replied.
'You've done some research.'
Shawn smiled mentally, 'It hardly research, everybody was talking about Harry Potter and the Lion he would become.'
'Indeed, you better go to GRYFFINDOR!'

Shawn removed the hat, he was stared at by the other students.
"What? Do I have something on my nose?"
He turned to the teachers.
"What is going on?"
The teachers had their wands pointed towards him
"Where did you get that sycthe? I know that two of those were kept in a vault."
Shawn looked behind him and noticed the souleater on his back.
'Kireek, what happened?'
'You lost your focus on the energyflow keeping the illusion in.'
'What? But I thought it was a matter of focus to summon the weapon.'
'The our energy is different for yours, so your body tried to eject the energy. It succeeded a moment ago.'
'I see.'
"WELL!" Dumbledore demanded.
"Calm down, you are scaring the students."
"Harry, I need to know were you got that scythe, everybody who touched it went crazy. You'll be a danger to everyone around you."
"No, I won't," Shawn spoke coldly,"because I have already met it before."
"You met it before?"
"Yes, and I am hardly crazy," Shawn's eyes gained a purple tint, "Just a little bit possesed."
The first stunners were fired.
Shawn dodged the first spell by jumping backwards, and somehow deflected the other with his bare hands.
"Stop this," he shouted, "damn, wizards are quick to jump to conclusions."
Suddenly another stunner hit Shawn from behind.
Shawn started to drop but recovered.
In one fluid motion Shawn reached for the scythe.
The teachers were shocked when he looked up rather sharply, his eyes fully purple.
"YOU WILL NOT HARM OUR HOST!" Shawn shouted in a double voice.
Shawn's eyes reverted to his natural green state, "Shut up, Kireek! Hermione is still to be sorted."
He turned to the teachers, "Sorry about that, Kireek can be a little bit protective.but I thank you for the warming up ."
Dumbledore blinked, "Okay," he turned his attention to Hermione, "You must also be sorted."
Hermione smiled nervously.
The sorting hat decided that Hermione was best suited for Gryffindor.
Shawn looked as the Timetables were handed out.
He glanced at it and smirked, first lesson was Potions.
Shawn looked at Snape and locked eyes.
Snape noticed the look and glared, Shawn just smirked.

First day at a new school and he had the teachers against him, including the headmaster
Most students were scared of him, and he had one true friend
all before the first class began.
This promised to be quite interesting.
A bell rung, and people started to go to class.
