Hey guys! Since it was so long between the last two chapters so I thought I would update sooner this time. It is only short but it is better than no chapter right? Well I think so anyway! Please do not review if you are just going to say unflattering comments but to those that are actually enjoying the story please review. I am not getting many compared to how many people are reading and it is very disheartening to see that. I wonder if people are actually enjoying it.

Thanks to those that are reviewing though you guys are fantastic!

I aim to get the next chapter up in about a week, maybe longer maybe shorter depending on my schedule and stuff. Please Review because if i dont get reviews it will take longer to update. Please don't make me one of those people that wont post a chapter until i get a certain amount of reviews I hate that but it seems that they do always seem to get loads of reviews for doing that.

Disclaimer: I do not own anything!


The only thing sustaining Harry was the thought that Mina was there for him and the prospect of talking to Sirius. Since he hadn't told Mina about Sirius yet he had to try and come up with a way to get everyone out of the common room without any assistance. He was secretly just hoping that everybody would just leave, either that or he would drop a bag of dungbombs.

During the fortnight the shock of being chosen as a champion wore off and he started to feel the nerves. He had never felt nerves like this before; he was worried about what he would have to deal with but did a good job of hiding it.

Harry was getting teased even more thanks to an article by Rita Skeeter. She was meant to write an article about the Tournament but instead it seemed more like a highly coloured life story of Harry. Much of the front page had been given over to a picture of Harry, the article which continued on pages two, six and seven, had all been about Harry. The names of Beauxbatons and Durmstrangs champions had been squashed into the last line of the article but their names were misspelled and Cedric's name wasn't even mentioned.

Rita Skeeter had reported him saying an awful lot of things that he couldn't remember ever saying in his life.

'I suppose I get my strength from my parents. I know they'd be very proud of me if they could see me now... yes, sometimes at night I still cry about them, I'm not ashamed to admit it... I know nothing will hurt me during the Tournament, because they're watching over me...

But Rita Skeeter had gone even further than transforming his 'er's into long sickly sentences, she had interviewed other people about him too.

Harry has at last found love at Hogwarts. His close friend, Colin Creevey says that Harry is rarely seen out of the company of one Minako Aino. Minako known better as Mina, is an extremely beautiful muggle born with stunning golden hair and shining blue eyes. The two had only met this year but according to Creevey had become fast friends and are rarely seen apart. She like Harry is one of the top students at Hogwarts.

From the moment that article appeared Harry had to endure people quoting it at him all the time. The people teasing him were mainly the Slytherins and their main teasing point was his crying over his parents and saying he was a top student at Hogwarts.

Harry was so sick of it all when he heard another voice call out to him.

"Hey – Harry!"

"Yeah that's right, I've just been crying my eyes out over my dead mum and I'm just off to do a bit more..."

He swirled around and found himself regretting his words when he saw Cho Chang standing in front of him with a slightly hurt look on her face. Harry had a small crush on the girl at the end of last year and this year until he saw Mina, then most of his feelings went towards Mina instead.

She smiled at Harry and handed over a quill. "Sorry, I just wanted to give you back your quill. You dropped it,"

Harry blushed slightly as he took the quill back. "Oh, right... sorry and thanks."

There was a slight awkward silence before Cho broke it. "Er, well good luck for Tuesday. I really hope you do well."

Harry sighed slightly as he walked away, his face losing the blush until he saw Mina yet again being harassed by some Slytherins namely Pansy Parkinson. This made the colour come back to his face he hated the way she was getting teased about the article but yet she always handled the situation well.

Whenever she was teased about Harry she would just calmly tell them that nothing was going on between her and Harry and that they were just friends. Harry's heart sank every time he heard that but he chose to ignore it most of the time since she had no idea how he felt.

"Extremely beautiful? Her? What was she judging against a frog?" Pansy laughed loudly and many of the other Slytherin girls joined it but he noticed that none of the males did. Harry knew this was because everybody knew how beautiful Mina was and Pansy and the other girls were just jealous.

Harry walked up to Mina and stood beside her. He longed to give her comfort but since the article came out the two refrained from touching unnecessarily as to avoid more drama.

Mina just smiled at Harry when she saw him. Pansy was still making fun of them and Mina saw Harry's hand clench. She whispered softly to him. "Ignore them, just ignore them Harry."

Harry tried he really did but he couldn't handle it much longer. Ron hadn't talked to him since telling him about their detention and Hermione was being annoying trying to get the two to make up. Hermione told him that he missed Ron. He maintained that he didn't but deep down he knew he did.

He loved having Mina around, really he did. She was fun, smart, bubbly but he couldn't talk about certain things with her. He longed to talk to Ron about Sirius and about his feelings towards Mina but he refused to speak to Ron until he apologised. Even with that thought in mind, Harry had a feeling that things would never go back to normal with Ron. Ron hadn't believed him when he needed him the most.

Harry also started to feel like things with Hermione would never get back to normal either. She was always trying to push him and Ron to becoming friends again and worse she was always bad mouthing Mina and even Ami.

Mina had tried teaching him the summoning charm but he still was unable to get it. Eventually she got bored with it and they stopped practicing for a while. He wasn't extremely happy about that but he didn't want to push Mina and lose her friendship so he went along with it.

Time seemed to pass quicker than ever and before they knew it, it was the Saturday before the first task and all students above third year were permitted to visit the village of Hogsmeade. Hermione had come up to Harry and told him he should go to Hogsmeade with her. Harry declined, he had already decided to go with Mina.

Hermione wasn't ecstatic about his plans but was happy he was getting out of the school. He had decided he would wear his Invisibility Cloak so that he didn't need to deal with all the teasing. Hermione had asked him how Mina felt about this and she just shrugged. She didn't mind if that was what Harry wanted she didn't mind.

So on the morning of the Hogsmeade weekend Mina and Ami had gotten up and discussed their plans. Ami had just taken a shower and was doing her hair while Mina was choosing outfits for the both of them.

"So what are your plans for today Ami?"

Ami shrugged but Mina noticed she blushed slightly. "Oh well, Ron said he was going to show me all around Hogsmeade and then we would go and relax in a place called the Three Broomsticks. I am really looking forward to exploring Hogsmeade."

Mina giggled and sent Ami a cheeky grin. "Yeah I am sure that is what you are looking forward to. Are you sure it has nothing to do with the fact that Ron is showing you around?"

Ami turned bright red and pouted slightly. "That has nothing to do with it! Now give me the outfit you are MAKING me wear. It better not be slutty it is kind of cold you know."

Mina rolled her eyes and pointed to the outfit on Ami's bed. Ami looked at it a little reluctantly, it wasn't that it was slutty it was a rather nice outfit consisting of a pair of black skinny leg jeans, cute black flats, a dark pink long sleeved turtle neck, a white and pink scarf and finally a black headband.

"Mina, these clothes are pink."

Mina gave Ami a confused look and Ami continued. "I don't wear pink, I wear blue. Mina these clothes aren't blue!"

Mina shook her head at Ami. "Ami, we were discussing this before, you need to add more colour to your wardrobe and I think pink would look lovely on you. So hurry up and get changed and don't forget the headband it will look so cute!"

Ami just sighed and walked back into the bathroom and got changed while Mina was getting ready in the bedroom. Ami was dressed and walked back out to see Mina fully dressed. She looked fantastic as always.

Mina was dressed in a pair of dark blue jeans that flared slightly at the bottom, and orange scoop neck long sleeved shirt with a black long sleeved cardigan that tied up at the front and stopped just underneath her chest over the top and black flats.

Mina looked up at Ami and smiled. "You look great! Told you pink would look good on you. I am almost ready just let me do my hair and then we can go downstairs."

Ami nodded and Mina started to do her hair she parted her hair down the middle and tied her hair into cute pigtails.

When she was done the two girls walked downstairs and separated. Ami met Ron in the common room and Mina made her way downstairs to the Entrance Hall where Harry said he would meet her.

Mina stood around waiting for an indication that Harry was there. Suddenly there was a small tap on her butt. She swirled around to hit the person but seemed to hit air, though a small ouch was heard. She glared at the space in front of her and whispered.

"Harry, I know that was you! That was totally mean!"

Mina heard Harry chuckle softly before she felt a breath near her ear.

"Sorry Mina, but I couldn't resist playing a joke on you. I know how much you hate males treating you like an object."

Mina blushed slightly from him whispering in her ear but felt very touched from his apology. "Apology accepted just don't do it again."

Harry grabbed her hand and pulled Mina along, luckily nobody was paying an awful lot of attention but it was still looked strange. Finally Mina made Harry drop her hand and whispered to him.
"Look Harry, if you are staying under your cloak, you can't just pull me around like that. It looks too strange, like I am walking around with my arm slightly in front of me. Just walk beside me and I will know where you are."

"How will you know where I am?"

Mina paused for a second not sure how to answer. She knew where Harry was because after he had started dragging her along, she had let down her mental block and basically locked onto Harry's feelings. This was she was able to know where he was because she could sense his feelings. Instead she made up a lie.

"I know where you are because I can feel the heat from your body."

Harry luckily believed her lie and the two just enjoyed their time walking around Hogsmeade. Mina didn't mind that it looked like she was by herself until boys that had stayed away because of Harry started to come up and try and sweet talk her.

Harry was getting annoyed he may not have been getting insulted with Potter Stinks badges and continuous insults from the article but this seemed like worse to him. At lease when he was with Mina normally the boys seemed to stay away.

Harry got so frustrated that he decided to take Mina to the Three Broomsticks. When they entered Mina was talking to Harry when Ron, Ami, Fred, George and Lee noticed her walking in. The five of them had a booth to themselves and smiled at Mina when she walked in.

Ami gave her a questioning glance because she thought Harry was meant to be with her but didn't say anything instead it was Ron that spoke up. Even though he was angry with Harry he never had anything against Mina and enjoyed her company and since she was alone he decided to be nice.

"Hey Mina would you like to sit with us? You must be quite lonely if you are talking to yourself."

Fred laughed at this. "You know that they say the first sign of madness is talking to yourself."

Mina smiled at the group. "You call it madness, I call it an interesting conversation with an interesting person. Also thanks for asking me to sit with you but I am just exploring today by myself."

Ron raised his eyebrow slightly. "Why aren't you with Harry? You two have been attached at the hip lately."

Mina blushed slightly and waved her hand around. "I am not always around him and he didn't want to come out today. He is ah, slightly nervous about the first task and is studying hard. Anyway I just wanted some time alone so I will see you guys around."

She smiled and walked away from the group and saw Rita Skeeter sitting in the corner. She scoffed at her before finding a secluded corner so people would stop looking at her like she was insane. Harry felt slightly bad for the looks she was getting and discreetly grabbed her hand giving it a light squeeze before letting it go.

"Sorry you are getting the weird stares."

Mina shook her head and smiled widely. "Oh don't worry Harry, I don't mind. This day has actually been relatively fun so far. I enjoyed spending the day with you without everybody looking at us like we are about to jump each other or something."

Harry smiled and blushed even though Mina couldn't see. The two just sat in silence after that just observing the people around them.

Everybody seemed so relaxed, so calm and both Mina and Harry wished that they could be like that. Harry wished that he could have been sitting with Ron, Hermione, Ami and Mina just joking around and coming up with what the task would entail but instead he was stuck under his invisibility cloak worrying about the first task and whether he was going to survive it.

Mina was also worrying about whether Harry would survive the whole ordeal. The first couple of weeks at Hogwarts she had felt so free, she had for once felt normal apart from the whole magic issue. During the first weeks it had all been so easy, she easily made friends, she was popular and relatively good at most subjects but most important she was able to briefly forget her duties as a Senshi.

When Harry's name was called out she knew that she was lead into a false life and that she would never truly escape from being Sailor Venus. She loved being a senshi but at times she wished that she wasn't.

Harry noticed Mina's expression starting to dampen, he went to try and comfort her but saw Hagrid walk in with Professor Moody. Harry waved at them before he remembered that he couldn't be seen. Moody on the other hand paused, his magical eye looking at Harry. Moody tapped Hagrid and muttered something to him and the pair made their way over to the table.

"All right Mina?" Hagrid asked very loudly breaking Mina out of her thoughts. Harry was stunned at how quickly she could change emotion. As soon as she saw Hagrid her eyes brightened and a smile was again on her face but Harry noticed that it didn't quite reach her eyes.

"Oh, Hello Professor Moody, Hagrid."

Moody limped around to near where Harry sat. He leaned down a little and whispered to Harry. "Nice Cloak, Potter."

Both Harry and Mina looked at Moody in shock and Harry stuttered out. "Can your eye – I mean, can you...?"

Moody chuckled slightly, sending slight chills down Mina's spine. "Yeah, it can see through Invisibility Cloaks and it's come in useful at times."

Hagrid was also beaming down at Harry, or at least where he thought he was. He wasn't exactly right but he was close enough. Hagrid bent down and whispered to Harry, though it was just loud enough for Mina to hear. "Harry meet me tonight at midnight at me cabin, wear that Cloak."

Straightening up, Hagrid nodded at Mina speaking loudly. "Nice ter see yeh Mina."

Hagrid then winked and left with Moody following after him. Harry was too busy looking curiously at Hagrid to notice the slight smirk on Mina's face.

She knew that what Setsuna said must have worked and that Hagrid would help Harry. When Harry addressed her she immediately wiped the smirk of her face and listened.

"Why does Hagrid want to see me tonight?"

Mina shrugged her shoulders and pretended to look surprised. "I have no idea Harry but I think you should go. It might be important."

Harry muttered a yes and the two began formulating a plan so that Harry could sneak out and back.

At half past eleven Harry pretended to go to bed while Mina waited around in the common room. Luckily the only people left in the common room were the Creevey brothers. The two of them were trying to make the Support Cedric Badges say Support HARRY POTTER but instead they caused the badges to be stuck on POTTER STINKS.

Harry snuck back downstairs under his Cloak and tapped Mina twice on the arm. She nodded slightly and walked up to the two brothers. She smiled and did her puppy dog eyes. The two boys turned beet red and stared at her.

"Boys, I think it is time you go to bed. You have tried your hardest and I am sure Harry is thankful for that. I will let him know what you guys have done. Some other day I will work on them with you maybe together we can make them say Support HARRY POTTER."

She lent down and added the finishing touch by kissing them both on the cheek. "Goodnight boys."

The two were unable to say anything and just nodded as they walked upstairs. Harry felt slightly jealous at them receiving kissed but at the same time nearly burst out laughing when they were speechless.

Mina then went to the entrance and opened the door for Harry who snuck past. The Fat Lady went to yell at Mina but Mina had just smiled over at her and paid her a compliment and she was like putty in her hands.

Mina then waited till Harry was far enough away before she snuck off into the corner. She quickly looked around to make sure nobody was around and no paintings were awake. When she was in the clear she took a breath and muttered to herself.

"I hope this works. "

She then pointed her wand up in the air and said softly. "VENUS CRYSTAL POWER"

Luckily the magic worked and glowing orange stars came out of her wand an encircled her like a ribbon. The stars encircled her body making their way to the floor. As the stars hit the fllor it was like an explosion of bright light with glowing stars. When the light disappeared Sailor Venus was standing there with her orange, blue and yellow Sailor Fuku and her hair done up in her old style. Mina huffed slightly at this before moving quickly and quietly down to Hagrids cabin. After many years of evading policemen and enemies she was able to get outside with no problem.

Venus saw Hagrid open the door and talk to air, she of course knew this was Harry and followed them as they walked towards the Beauxbatons carriage. Hagrid knocked on the door and Venus watched in confusion as Madame Maxime greeted Hagrid and the two made their way off together.

Venus stamped her foot lightly, this wasn't what was supposed to happen. She still followed them and heard roars and shouts. Venus smiled, finally they were getting to the dragons. She followed them and jumped into the trees and saw the four beasts. She gasped slightly, not in fright but from awe. She had never seen a dragon, they weren't beautiful but they were majestic nonetheless.

One was silvery blue with long pointed horns, another was a smooth-scaled green, the third was red with an odd fringe of fine gold spikes around its face and finally there was a gigantic black one. Venus watched as many wizards tried to subdue the beasts.

Venus jumped through the trees till she was in a tree beside where Harry was. She put her legs around a sturdy trunk and hung upside down so she could clearly hear what was being said. She already sensed Harry's sudden fear and hoped that he could handle this.

She listened carefully as Hagrid started talking to a wizard that looked a little like Ron.

"What breeds you got here Charlie?"

Charlie grinned at Hagrid and answered. "This black on is the Hungarian Horntail, there is a Common Welsh Green over there, the smaller one that is kind of bluish is a Swedish Short-Snout and the red one is a Chinese Fireball."

Charlie paused as he saw Madame Maxime walking around the enclosure. "I didn't know you were bringing her Hagrid. The champions aren't supposed to know, she is bound to tell her student."

Hagrid shrugged with a dopey look on his face. "Jus' thought she'd like ter see 'em."

Charlie rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Really romantic date Hagrid."

Venus had to hold back her small chuckle at what Charlie had said. Her attention was soon back on the conversation when Charlie spoke again.

"There is one for each of the champions; I don't think they have to fight them. I think they just have to get past them. They wanted nesting mothers for some reason but I tell you this I don't envy the one who gets the Horntail. That one is vicious; its back end is as dangerous as its front, look."

Venus followed the finger that was outstretched towards the black dragon and gasped slightly. The dragon had long bronze coloured spikes protruding along it every few inches. She really hoped that Harry, did not get that one.

Venus was almost too occupied listening to Charlie talk about how worried his mother was for Harry that she almost didn't sense Harry moving. She swore under her breath as she swung off the branch into a different tree, gymnastic bar style. She landed softly and took off after Harry, soon catching up to him, she almost revealed herself when she saw Karkaroff get knocked over slightly. She feared that Harry was discovered but luckily he wasn't.

As Venus followed him she felt his emotions start to calm down. She followed him silently until they came close to the Gryffindor Tower, she then found a secluded spot and de-transformed. Mina then snuck back out and into the Gryffindor common room after Harry. The Fat Lady was luckily too tired to care and let her in.

Mina hid behind a big armchair and saw Harry appear in the middle of the common room and was waiting for him to go upstairs so that she could finally go back to bed. She resisted the urge to laugh as she saw Harry press a Support Cedric badge and instead of saying POTTER STINKS, it read POTTER REALLY STINKS.

Harry then looked into the fire and jumped slightly. Mina nearly screamed from surprise as she saw a face in the fire. The face was a man, a quite handsome man Mina personally thought. He had short black hair and brown eyes. Mina rubbed her eyes to make sure she wasn't dreaming.

She was about to jump out to save Harry from the fire face when Harry smiled wider than she had ever seen and began talking to the face.

"Sirius, how are you doing?"

The face, Sirius she assumed, didn't smile back. He looked extremely serious. "Never mind me, how are you?"

Mina watched as Harry tried to struggle for the words. She felt Harry's love for the man and how much he missed him.

Harry began to speak slowly at first but soon everything was flowing out of his mouth. He spoke about everything that had happened recently from how he hadn't entered the tournament, Rita Skeeter's article, Ron and she blushed as her name came up one or twice. It was mainly about how good a friend she was being but when Sirius had asked who she was he had said that she was one of the most beautiful girls he had ever met.

Mina felt bad for listening in but she couldn't escape without being caught so she waited patiently for Harry to finish talking to Sirius.

Mina was shocked to hear that Karkaroff used to be Death Eater. Mina didn't know an awful lot about the Death Eaters except for the fact that they used to be really powerful and worked for Voldemort.

The conversation between the two seemed to go on forever. They kept on talking about more serious things now including Moody, somebody named Bertha Jorkins, Voldemort, the dragons and people trying to kill Harry.

Mina froze when Sirius was trying to give Harry some reassurance, somebody was coming. She wanted to call out to Harry to warn him but luckily Sirius seemed to realise that somebody was coming and quickly bid farewell to Harry and disappeared with a small pop.

Harry whirled around just in time to see Ron coming down the stairs. Mina again nearly gave away her position by almost laughing at Ron, he was dressed in maroon paisley pyjamas that were slightly to short for him.

Ron stared at Harry and then to the fire. "Who were you talking to?"

Mina nearly gasped at the cold glare Harry sent Ron. "What's that got to do with you? What are you doing down here at this time of night?"

Ron shrugged as he answered. "I just wondered where you... Nothing, I am going back to bed."

Harry's tone turned sarcastic and cruel. "Just thought you'd come nosing around did you?"

Ron's face turned slightly red and Mina caught the hurt in his face before he quickly covered it up. "Sorry about that, I should have realised that you didn't want to be disturbed. I'll let you get on with practising for your next interview in peace."

Mina watched in slight horror and slight amusement as Harry seized one of the POTTER REALLY STINKS badges off the table and chucked it at Ron, hitting him on the forehead.

"There you go, something for you to wear on Tuesday. You might even get a scare if you're lucky. That's what you want, isn't it?"

Mina watched on in sadness as Harry strode away from his ex-best friend not even seeing the look of hurt on Ron's face. She wanted to reach out and give Ron a hug, she could tell that both him and Harry were hurting from this situation.

She sighed quietly as Ron bent down to pick up the badge and press it making it turn back to the Support Cedric message. He placed it on the table and shook his head slightly, the hardened look coming back to his face as he strode upstairs.

After watching Ron leave, Mina crept out from her hiding place and snuck back up to her room. Luckily Ami was already asleep, she would tell Ami later but right now she didn't need a lecture of following Harry alone, without any backup.

Mina quickly and quietly got changed into her pyjamas and slipped into her bed, sighing slightly as she felt the warmth.

As she closed her eyes she mumbled to herself. "Who is Sirius? I guess I will have to pay a visit to Setsuna tomorrow. She probably knows."

With the last thought she drifted off to sleep.


Just so you know Mina's transformation was just like her normal one except the lights and stuff come from the end of the wands. I couldn't exactly remember what her transformation looked like since it has been so long since I watched Sailor Moon but I hope i got close. So yeah just imagine that.

Hope you liked it and fingers crossed that the next update will be soon! Remember the more reviews I get the quicker I update!
