Chapter 2
Disclaimer: I own nothing of Harry Potter or One Piece. I wished that I did, but sadly I don't.
Dumbledore's POV…
It was the middle of the summer vacation and Dumbledore was taking a short break from the most evil thing on the planet and that was paperwork.
He thought back to when Samantha walked into his office missing her left arm. If only he could have done better then maybe she would still have her left arm. It's a constant reminder for now on how he had failed her and her parents.
Albus knew that she was safe in her apartment. Oh yes, he knew that she was not with her aunt and uncle. After she moved into her new apartment, he put up wards that would keep away people who would want to harm her.
Albus wondered what Lily or James would do if they were still alive. At that thought, he shuddered at what he had pictured. James would make his life hell with those pranks of his and Lily would probably curse him into the next century for letting their daughter loose an arm.
Now with Sirius Black on the loose, he will hopefully have a harder time locating Samantha. Since she is no longer living with her relatives. Maybe it was the best thing for her to be kicked out as Black knows where Petunia lives. Hopefully, he can keep Samantha safe this year or when he dies, James and Lily would torture him in his afterlife.
Professor McGonagall's POV…
At McGonagall Manor in the library, Professor McGonagall was thinking about Samantha and how life was being rather cruel to her. At the age of one, her godfather, Black betrayed everyone and got Lily, James, and Peter killed and now he broke out of prison to finish the job. At the age of eleven, Samantha was kicked out by her aunt and uncle after returning from Diagon Alley, which was a good thing too as her cub won't have to deal with the abuse any more.
Oh yes, she and the Headmaster knew about the abuse, but they could not do anything for her until she entered Hogwarts. Stupid Purebloods who passed that law.
"Maybe I should check up on Samantha tomorrow and see how she is doing," McGonagall said to herself. That sounded like a good idea.
Professor Snape's POV…
In Prince Manor was Professor Snape sitting in the living room, sipping fire whiskey as he thought of the dreams or nightmares as he called them. They started right after school ended. The nightmares consisted of Lily screaming at him for failing to protect her daughter and how she regrets of ever being friends with him and among other things. He thought back to when Potter…no, Samantha was in the Great Hall with her left side covered by a small cloak, he just thought it was one of her ways to gain even more attention, but when that Granger girl yelled about her missing her left arm. He was shocked as he believed that all Potters were prefect whenever they came back from doing something dangerous.
Maybe, he should go and apologize to Samantha and tell her stories about her mother. And another reason to find out where she lives is so he could drop by and make sure that Black didn't get her. After all, Samantha Potter is his last link to Lily and he made a promise to her, to protect her daughter at all costs.
(Scene Break)
It has been a week since Sammy got back from Hogwarts and right now she was putting away the last of her finished homework, when there was a knock at her door.
"Coming," Samantha called out as she made her way towards the door.
Opening it up, she took one look at the person who had knocked and the sight of that person made her blood freeze.
"Shanks," The man whispered as if he was surprised to see him.
"Aokiji, why don't you come in," Sammy said as she opened her even further, letting the former marine admiral in. so they could talk in peace without having anyone else overhearing them.
Aokiji walked into her apartment and Sammy shut the door behind them and asked, "Why are you here, Aokiji?"
Aokiji sat down on the couch as Sammy got a very good look at him. He was younger than she remembered, if she had to guess, Aokiji was about six years older than she was and that made him to be about nineteen years old. Aokiji answered, "I came here to rent an apartment, but I did not know that you own the building, Shanks."
Sammy sighed as she said, "My name is Samantha Lily Potter and I'm a girl. I was kicked out by my aunt and uncle two years ago, because they failed to beat out the magic that I was born with. And with some help from the goblins who runs the bank that my family's fortune is in and I bought this apartment building, so I would have a place to live during the summers."
Aokiji did not say anything while she explained what happened to her. After a moment of silence, he spoke up, "I guess that I'm not the only one with magic. But that will make things a lot easier with you around, at least I know that I'm not the only one who was reincarnated, which I'm glad of. I will still call you Shanks, even though you're a girl and not a pirate. Out of curiosity, how did you loose your arm, again?"
Sammy sighed as she began to explain what happened last year at Hogwarts, and how she lost her left arm while she was saving her best friend's little sister.
After an hour of talking, Aokiji signed the paperwork that will allow him to rent the apartment next door.
(Scene Break)
It has been two weeks since Aokiji moved into the apartment next to hers. He also developed a habit of coming into her apartment uninvited for breakfast, lunch, and dinner or whenever he was not working at the book store that he owns. His excuse for coming over at meal times was because she was a great cook and he could not cook anything to save his soul.
Right now, Sammy was wearing her straw hat that she found a week ago at a second hand store as she was coming back from the grocery store about two blocks away when a kid's voice yelled, "SHANKS!"
Sammy turned around as the voice sounded like to be Luffy's. Sure enough, it was Luffy as well as Ace and a kid with blonde hair. Luffy crashed into her and started crying his eyes out.
"Shh, its going to be okay," Sammy said quietly. What was surprising that Ace was hugging her as well as the other kid. She looked them over and saw that were street kids living on the streets.
"Come on, lets go to my apartment, to talk. And no attacking Aokiji," Sammy ordered. She picked up her bag of groceries and with the three children following her; she made her way to her apartment.
(Scene Break)
Once they were inside the apartment, Sammy set the bag on the counter and she turned back to the three boys and she waved her hand, which caused all of the dirt on their clothes and bodies to disappear as well as the smell from not taking a bath for a long time. She really needed to thank Aokiji for teaching her wandless magic. It has been very helpful.
"Okay, I know Luffy and Ace, but I don't know you," Sammy said as she looked at the blonde haired kid.
"Name's Sabo, but I died before I was eleven," Sabo said before he began to tell her, his history. Then Ace and Luffy told her about their new lives.
After they were done talking, Sammy began telling them about her new life and that she was born as a girl (Luffy did not really care that his hero was a girl, he was just happy that Shanks was back). And about the only one that she knew was from their world or time or both was Aokiji.
"Okay, here are the plans for tomorrow, after breakfast we are going to the bank and I will be adopting you three as my sons and after that we will be joined by Aokiji and we will be buying you things like clothes, books, and among other things, okay?" Sammy explained.
With that they got ready for supper and Aokiji came over as usual to help her out with the food, but he got a heart attack when he saw who she got with her. After explaining what was going to happen, he agreed to help her tomorrow.
(Scene Break)
It has been almost a month and it was a few days before her birthday, when there was a knock at her door. It could not be Aokiji as he slept here in her apartment on the couch ever since the news of a high leveled prisoner, Sirius Black escaped from Azkaban. Even though Aokiji knew that she could take care of herself, it was a good idea for him to guard her since she was a woman (A few days ago, Sammy got her first period and trust him when Aokiji says that nothing in the New World and in the Grand Line could ever scare him as bad as Sammy on her period) and she had three kids to look after. It seemed to be the right thing to do.
Sammy opened the door and saw Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape standing on the other side. This is going to be very interesting, Sammy thought to herself.
AN: I know that I said in the previous chapter that Sammy was going to go to Diagon Alley and the visit with the two professors, but this idea just popped into my head this morning and I promise the visit and Diagon Alley will be in the next chapter. I hope that you all like this chapter. Please review and tell me what you all think of it. Have a nice day, everyone.
