Ch 19 Forgiveness
Ritsuka walks down the halls to meet Professor McGonagall for dance practice for the Yule Ball dance with the other students, Gawain was with him in astral form after a bit of arguing with the other knights when Ritsuka said that only one can come with him. After a quick game of rock, paper, and scissor. "Master, are you sure you want to attend this practice with McGonagall? I mean you already know how to dance since Shinjuku when you went undercover at a ball." Gawain said to him. When he saw him with Arturia Alter and that dragon witch he can tell he's a natural when it comes to dancing.
"Well I do pick up things fast when it comes to the mission, I guess it just sticks." He smiled "HARRY!" a voice called his former name; he recognizes that voice but can't put his finger on it. He turns his head to see a shaggy black-haired man and a man with scars on his face rushes towards him hugging him. "Pup, nice outfit you got there." The shaggy-haired man said complimenting the Chaldean Uniform True Ether mystic code, "Where did you get it?" he asked. Ritsuka blinks at them "Sirius Orion Black and Remus Lupin nice to meet you if I remember correctly you Mr. Black are my godfather and you Mr. Lupin are Charles's." he said to the both of them as Sirius laughs "Call me Padfoot, pup!" as he reaches his hand to ruffle his hair before an invisible force stops his hand from reaching his godson. Gawain materializes next to his master blocking their view.
"I much appreciate that you don't lay your hands on my master," Gawain states at them. Sirius and Remus were shocked to see this man appear suddenly. "Who are you!?" Sirius demands of him. "I am Saber, servant contracted to my master; Ritsuka Fujimaru" Gawain and the knights decided not to reveal their names along with some others including Merlin because they know they'll use it to their advantage to use on their master. "Saber…I remember now, James and Lily said that you have heroes and a goddess that you enslaved," Gawain's eye twitch at how they disrespect his master like that and how they can treat him like he's some sort of demon.
"But I don't believe that. I mean if your servants decide to be in service to you, Ritsuka then its all right with us." What Remus said surprised both servant and master, "I'm sorry, but I was expecting you two will be like everyone else." Ritsuka admittedly said. The two Marauders looked at each other and understands why he was surprised. "Ritsuka, we know that what James and Lily did isn't right, and we are sorry for how they treated you, so all we are asking is your forgiveness of not doing something before," Sirius said with hope in his eyes that he'll forgive them. Ritsuka remains silent as he thought it over what they said. "' It'll take me a while to forgive you both, but I appreciate you both coming to apologize." He said to both Marauders.
"So, mind telling us your name Saber?" Remus asked the Knight of the Sun. he looked at his master "You can if you want, it's your chose." He said to his Saber. "I rather not, I would like to keep it hidden until the moments right." He said to the two. They nodded understanding his reason. "I completely understand, you're not sure who is listening in," Remus said. "Well you better head to Professor McGonagall, she'll have your head if you show up late." Sirius continues after his friend. Ritsuka said his goodbyes and went into the classroom filled with students as Gawain went to his astral form.
They turn their attention to the last master as he made his way to the empty seat. A tap on his shoulder caught his attention, he turns around to see the twins. "Hey, aren't you're Ritsuka Fujimaru the master of" "That goddess during the first task." The twins said. "Yes, you're…Fred and George Weasley the elder brothers of Ginny and Ronald Weasley." Ritsuka said making them impressed. "I say, Fred, that old man is right he is informative." George said to his brother "And a great taste in clothing too." Fred complements his mystic code. "Thank you, you said the old man. Is it my mentor?" he asked worried he might have done something.
"Yes! Uh Zelertch, he is a good prankster if we do say so." Fred said remembering the prank he let them in. "You say it brother. The look on Hagrid is hilarious, I'm glad he lets us join him ." Geroge laughed still remembering Hagrid's face. Ritsuka remembers it from the report that Siegfried and Gilgamesh reported back. It said that the Zelretch has taken some explosive glitter and puts it in a dragon's egg and laid it outside of a dragon egg for him to find when Charles and Ron visit him at his hut the egg was rattling. Hagrid thought it was hatching but exploded making glitter fly everywhere even covering the three of them. "Ah, yes I do remember that from the report from Caster and Saber." Ritsuka said remembering every single detail from it. McGonagall enters the room as Filch tries to get the record player working. "Now as I said before-Mr. Fujimaru glad that you can make it today. Now back to what I was saying the Yule ball is a dance that everyone will attend. Griffindor is the most famous for upholding its tradition in the wizarding world for nearly ten centuries," the boys groan at this but Ritsuka was fascinated at the short history lesson, the girls squeal in excitement at the thought of the dance. "Silence! Now that I have your attention, I would like a partner in the boy side. "she looks around and saw Ron chuckling with Charles "Ron Weasley, you will be my partner." The old witch said as Ron stared in silence. "Uh…"
He stood up reluctantly as she grabs his arms "Now Mr. Weasley put your arms around my waist-"Your what!?" he exclaims as McGonagall just gave him a look of disappointment and continues the lesson "Now follow me, one, two, three…one, two, three…one, two, three…" she continues on before stopping "Now everyone got the idea? I want everyone to stand up and choose a partner. Ritsuka got paired off with Hermione as his partner, people stared at the two who waltz around in awe "I've never known you can dance, Ritsuka." She said impressed with his skills "Well… I did have to pick this up for a mission back then. Actually, this is just the basics." He admits which was a shock to her "This is just the basics!?"

BULGARIAN MINISTRY FROZEN MASSACRE
A mysterious attack on the Bulganin Ministry of Magic has dumfounded the investigators of what has concurred. Overnight the Ministry was attacked killing almost half the staff officials including Minister Oblansk who has a hole in his chest like a huge sword pierced it. Currently the survivors don't have any recollection of the incident like they were obliterated erasing the whole event. As for the victims some of them were stabbed either in the head or slashed across the back or their chest for those who aren't lucky, currently the ministry is covered in ice and snow inside and out (See on pg. 5 for the image) and those weren't lucky were frozen solid in ice; but that's not the only thing. In the assembly room, there were pieces of ice that held body parts in them and efforts of unfreezing the frozen victims is going south as each time they try to melting them the victims will scream random thing saying "The demon…The demon, the one in the doll by a woman in white. Hail the duchess of ice." (quote by the survivor). This survivor died soon after he said that. All we know that watch out for a woman who has a doll in white and should prepare for what's coming.

"For the years I've seen spells of mass destruction, this is the far most destructive I've seen, "Moody said unclear of what to thinking of this, "To think that this type of spell exists," Lily said horrified at the pictures shown in the prophet, James just remained silent at the paper he was reading. "This seems to be staged by someone, but who?" Kingsley said looking at Dumbledore for the answer.
"(Heroes and Villains…)" Those two words keep on playing in his mind, was it Harry who is behind this but from what he has seen with Ereshkigal and Nightingale he needs to be with his servant enable for them to attack. "I don't know."' He said still thinking of the prophecy. "Let's just leave it for now, its almost the Yule Ball and there's a lot of things to set up." He said as they accepted his answer as they leave, one by one his plans are falling apart.
