Chapter 9: The Tournament is Soon
Haru groaned. Thankfully Hermione would do most of the recruitment for their year, so Haru was stuck trying to recruit people in any class they didn't share together. The good news that was only one class. The bad news is that it was a small class and everyone knew him.
"Did someone put you up to it?" asked Su.
"What do you mean?" asked Haru.
"Hermione and his mother." Said Lisa not even looking up from the book she was reading, "I heard some older girls talking."
"Seriously?" asked Ernie.
"That explains so much…" mumbled Su.
"So will you join?" asked Haru.
"No…" answered both Su and Ernie at the same time.
"I'll think about it." Said Lisa.
Haru sighed… it could have been worse, he could have been Hina or Kaien.
Meanwhile with Hina just outside of potions class.
"Join SHELF." Muttered Hina to the Slytherins in her class.
"Why should we do that for House Elves?" asked Astoria speaking for the rest of her class.
"Did you ever get put up to something because one of your parents are making you?" muttered Hina.
"So your stuck doing this because your mother ism making you." Mocked Astoira, "What was she a slave like a lowly House Elf or something like that"
Hina bit her lip, it was hard enough so that blood started trickling down.
Astoria saw this and went pale.
"Never say that about my mother." Said Hina wiping the blood with her finger.
"What are you doing?" asked Pro. Snape.
"Nothing." Said Hina.
Maya sighed and gave her a handkerchief.
"10 points from Gryffindor for exploiting a student's fear." Said Snape.
"Oh come on!" yelled Hina.
Meanwhile Kaien's class was having one with Ravenclaw.
"Come on Nojiko help me on this one." He said to his twin sister.
"No…" said Nojiko, "It's your own fault for coming up with a better acronym."
"Hey! Nojiko over here!" called out a boy in Ravenclaw.
"Okay." Said Nojiko blushing bright red.
Kaien face palmed.
"Of course my sister had to be that way…" he muttered opt himself.
Eventually Hina and Kaien convinced Hermione to let up a bit since all of their classmates said no.
Since the class was small, Hermione just double-checked with Lisa, Su and Ernie.
However Hermione began to leave clothes around for the House Elves.
The House Elves didn't take it well to Hermione trying to free them.
As the weeks went by things have reached gone back to their normal routine.
However one class was one Haru would never forget.
"All right class!" said Pro. Moody walking in, "I have permission from Dumbledore to perform the Imperious Curse on you."
"Isn't that illegal?" asked Hermione.
"It is, but however are you going to learn how to fight them off?" asked Pro. Moody.
Haru had took out a box of popcorn.
"Where did you even get it?" asked Hermione.
"Portal." Said Haru.
They watched as one by one the fellow students were put under the cruse. When Neville was put under he did some astonishing gymnastics, Dean was forced to hop around the room and sing the national anthem and Lavender imitated a squirrel.
"Now Mr. Monkey." Said Pro. Moody.
Haru handed Ron his popcorn.
"All right! I'll show you how to resist it." Said Haru.
Pro. Moody placed him under the curse.
Haru felt himself in a warm happy place.
"Now jump on my desk." said a voice.
"Who the hell are you!" yelled Haru, "And get out of my head!"
When everything was done, a good chunk of the class was passed out the only ones who weren't unconscious were Ron, Hermione and Neville.
"Now… Mr. Monkey can you do that again… without causing the class to pass out?" said Pro. Moody though Haru could tell he was impressed, if only little.
Soon Haru learned to resist without resorting to using Haki.
After class of course Haru had to apologize.
"We don't blame you." Said Dean, "We know if you get that you can't control your weird power."
"I blame you!" said a girl from Gryffindor walking past them.
Haru gave her a good long stare.
"Who are you?" he asked.
The girl rolled her eyes.
"You're an idiot." She muttered.
"Seriously… who is she?" asked Haru.
As time went along, things were fairly normal. The classes were normal and everything was rather quiet.
As October came to a close Snape made an announcement that the next class would be an antidote test and hinted at poisonings.
Thankfully an announcement came around that said that the schools Durmstrang and Beauxbatons would come the day that class was supposed to be held.
"He's not going to poison us!" cheered Haru.
"I don't think he would have done that." Said Hermione.
On the day they were coming, the Thousand Sunny was getting out of Dock, apparently at least one of the school were also traveling by ship and it was best to be on the other side of the lake once they arrive.
Thankfully Pro. McGonagall conjured a secondary dock to dock at for a day or so.
"A magical ship?" asked Tom who was helping out.
"Yeah I know, I can't wait to see it." Said Franky.
"It does sound interesting." Said tom.
That was when he was suddenly hugged by Franky.
"Oh my son wants to follow me! I'm so proud!" cried Franky.
"You knew this a long time ago… don't seem so shocked…" mumbled Tom.
Robin who still on board laughed.
"By the way I think Sirius and Marguerite are still on board do you think you can get them." Said Franky.
"Of course." Said Robin.
She went over to the woman's room and gently knocked on the door.
"Are you almost done in there." Said Robin, "Luffy want everyone off the ship just in case the ship comes early."
"Almost!" called out Sirius.
A minute later, Marguerite came out with an oversized shirt and Sirius came out wearing make up and what looked to be a loincloth.
"Maybe you should get dress." Said Robin.
"Good idea." Said Sirius.
Robin was him as he went over to the door for the men's room.
"Remember what I said." Said Robin.
Marguerite just brushed her off.
After docking to the temporary dock on the other side of the island, Franky and Tom came back on the Kurosai FR-U IV and Tom went to where his classmates from Ravenclaw were standing.
After waiting for a while they waited for the school's to arrive.
That was when a gigantic flying carriage arrived, being pull by Gigantic flying horses. Soon it landed and student left the carriage all dressed in light blue silk robes, alone with them was a woman as large as Hagrid.
Pro. Dumbledore grabbed the hand of the woman who was the Madame Maxime.
Hancock smiled when she saw Hagrid's face.
These were the students of Beauxbatons, the biggest school of Western Europe.
That when also when the water of the lake began to churn. Out from the water was a large ship.
When Franky saw it his eyes began to sparkle.
Soon the students disembarked with a tall thin man with a goatee, he was Igor Karkaroff, the headmaster of Durmstrang, a large school that never excepts Muggle Borns.
However Ron got extremely excited.
"Don't you see who that is?" asked Ron.
"What do you mean?" asked Haru.
"Viktor Krum is among them!" said Ron.
"Hey. Ron… do you think you can transform to you hybrid form?" asked Hina, "I want to see something."
"Why?" asked Ron.
"Do it." said Hina.
He did so and they saw why she wanted him to.
His tail was wagging.
"Hey!" yelled Ron.
"Sorry, couldn't help myself." Said Hina.
Haru laughed as the students headed into the castle for a grand feast and to talk about the Tri-Wizard tournament.
Next Time: Those who want to enter the the Tri-Wizard Tournemnt do so. However something unexpected happens... what is that thing? What will happen? Find out next time!
