Recap:
"Anyway let the feast begin." And that day would not be the end of the surprises, and excitements that would happen this year.
Story: Blade POV:
"OH I forgot to mention something!!!" I yelled to quiet the room down. "I would like to announce two of our new teachers. Ron Weasly will be our Sex Ed teacher along with Miroku. And Hermione will be our new History of Magic teacher!!!"
"Finally!!! I WAS ABOUT TO GO CRAZY ON THAT GHOST!!!" Yelled someone from the Gryfindor table. At those words the room went into an explosion of cheering.
"You may now go to your common rooms!!! All except Percy, Annebeth, Nico, Rin, and Shippo!!!" I yelled.
"Now I know you've never been in the headmasters chambers so I'll show you…then to my secret room…" I said as everyone in our compartment followed me to the stone gargoyle.
"SWEET!!!" Yelled Rin.
"Frosted tart." I said as the gargoyle started to turn. "Now nobody tell anyone else about the passwords you will hear tonight. This is the headmasters chamber." I said as I opened the door and let them in. After about a minute of aw I brought them all back to the gargoyle, which had moved back into its normal place.
"What now?" Asked Kagome, while staring at a different gargoyle then the one that led us up here.
"This…KiminoBoke." I said to the new gargoyle. The gargoyle let out a scream then opened to reveal an elevator. After we all piled inside I took out my sword and jammed it into a slot by the door. "Hold on." I said as the elevator shot up. When we exited we were in the same looking area with 2 doors this time.
"This is the fun part." I said as I walked between them. Once I was in place I beckoned to them. "Now open up Janpugeto." I said while looking at the blank wall. The next thing we know we are inside my room.
"WOW!!!" They all exclaimed.
"Yes… if you ever need to see me though, go anywhere by the gargoyle in the main hallway to the area we were just in, and utter Yujin. If someone tries to get the password from you tell him or her Teki. Now you can come any time, just utter the word and the spell I've placed around the area will teleport you straight to me… Remember though, you have to mean it when you say it, and if you're with someone, then they have to be someone I trust else you won't be able to get up…. and trust me I'll know. Now if you need instant help like someone is about to kill you, or something is happening that needs me to appear, take this amulet and utter Yujin, then your distress silently, like if you need to see me without letting anyone know. Sango same thing goes for you, just take it and press the center button. It'll let me know you're on hall monitor duty."
"Now of to your common room kids… and Harry. Goodbye." I said with a flick of my hand.
"And…?" asked shadow.
"You were smart… If anybody breaks the rules then take him to my office and let me deal with them. For our trip later on we'll need to see who's been good and bad, and how much. Well anyway… pressing the button on your amulet twice allows you access to rooms. Oh and Shadow… I'm gonna bring Sirius, James, and Lilly back."
"…………. I LOVE YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!!" She yelled while she tackled me. As I tried getting her off of me I saw Sesshomaru give me evil death stares.
"Bye guys. See you tomorrow." I said as I sent them to their rooms.
The next day:
"WELL TIME TO GET TO CLASS PEOPLE!!!" I yelled. Within a second I was at my classroom and I was talking to Toshiro when the class walked in.
"WOW!!!" the students exclaimed when they walked in.
"Well students… take a blade from over in that pile that feels to fit the best…. When you find that sword you will keep it. It will go with you to every class and while you traverse the hallways. I have given the teachers instructions about what you learned, and I have also told them to attack random students at any time saying that if they didn't have their sword then they would lose points in their grade for this class, and for their whole house. Today I will teach you how to block for this is what you will need to stand against the teachers… at least. Those of you with talent will work with me. Those who are not so good will work with a friend. Remember… once you have chosen your blades they will become blunt so as not to kill anyone. Remember pick a sword that fits you. The sword chooses the master… not the other way around. Good everyone has a sword. Now people they are called Zanpaktou. They each have individual names that you will learn later on. Some days we will learn about the place where our friends come from. Other days we will spar and learn new tactics. Any questions? None? Good lets begin. Everyone partner up. MMM…James… come over here. Now lets begin with some blocks. Everyone watch us." I said
First thing I did was bring my sword over my head and bring it down onto his. He brought his sword up with amazing speed and held it right above his head, which blocked my blade.
"Good… another thing you could have done was taken your blade and attacked mine and try throwing it off balance. When fighting an opponent weaker then you this is best. When fighting someone stronger and with more weight you either dodge the attack, or block like James did."
For the rest of the session James blocked every single one of my attacks with amazing accuracy, and after I used him and taught him how to attack, he did amazing, he couldn't get passed me, and the amount of blows I dealt him was about 2.
"Nice James… you have a swordsman in you. Well that's all for today for blocking and attacking. Everyone else keep sparring, the day isn't done yet!!!" After this I brought James to the front to watch everyone spar in the room as big as Sokyoku hill.
"James… I want you to do something. First relax your mind of all thoughts. Then I want you to search in your mind for a presence. A presence you have never felt before. Do that, and if you can't tell me and we can do something else." I gave him half of the time left in class to him, but to no avail. "That's alright. I won't take one day you know. These things take time. Here take your sheath and tie it around your waist. Good now slide your blade in. Now does it feel natural to take your blade out?"
"Ya it does… It feels perfect."
"Ok… now take one hand and hold onto your sheath, now take the other and put it on your blade, now take your blade out as fast as you can." I said ducking and just barely missing being decapitated. "Nice… now put it back in by holding your hand on your sheath and sliding your blade back in. Good… that's what you'll need to do. Now look at Ikkaku…"
"The bald one?"
"HEY WHO CALLED ME BALD!!!" HE yelled
"ME SO WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT TO BALDY!!!" I replied back… that quickly shut him up.
"Why didn't he attack???"
"Cause I kicked his butt about 20 times before today and he won't want to make a fool of himself today. Anyway how he fights is different. He has his sword on his waist but he uses his sheath and blade to fight. So if you need to block fast, you can A) pull your blade out as fast as possible, B) You can pull your blade and sheath out, or c) learn to pull your blade out without holding your sheath. Anyway… something I do is I enchant my weapon so they appear when I want them to. It's a lot easier to do that then carry like 50 weapons around at once…"
"Oh like you did with Scorpious?"
"Yes just like that… see ya man it's time to go."
"HEY LISTEN UP!!! TOMORROW WE ARE NOT GOING TO PRACTICE SWORDSMANSHIP!!! BUT DON'T THINK THAT I WON'T ATTACK YOU UNAWARES!!! BE SURE TO BRING YOUR SWORD!!!" at that the whole class left to go to their next class.
"Hey guys I have an idea… listen up…" I said to them. I started whispering in their ear about something.
"Alright good idea lets do it…" The rest of the day progressed just like that. I taught them how to attack and block, and each one of my friends kids were naturals at swordsmanship and each one of them I did just what I did with James.
At Dinner: Kagome POV:
"Guys i have a special announcement!!! Tomorrow after lunch every teacher will take their kids down to the quiditch fields!!! It has been enchanted so that it has enough space for everyone to sit and watch what will happen!!! Remember students will need their blades!!! I will have the teacher's attack you at random times tomorrow, and the attacks will be more frequent from now on now that everyone knows how to block/attack. If they attack they won't stop until you can hit them, even if it is a light tap with your sword. Now LET THE FEAST BEGIN!!!" Blade yelled as food started to appear on the tables.
"What are you going to do???" we all asked asked.
"You'll see." Blade said while winking to Shadow. Apparently she got the message because she winked right back.
"Hey come to my office after the feast and we'll talk." He told us. Man… I was totally wrong when I thought yesterday was the best day ever. I had no idea what was yet to come.
