Hey, it's me! Finally, this story is getting close! I assure you, it will be epic! Also, I thought I'd pause a second to describe Gohan's shift into becoming a warrior. He uses swords and guns if the situation demands it. He still fights with ki, but only against opponents such as Cell. War has an effect of changing people, as we've seen in Gohan from the deaths of his best friends.
Chapter 82
"GAAAHHH!" Pan howled in pain as her left arm seared.
"Ha ha… you feel it too." Tyranus smirked as he dropped his mask.
"What the? You're…" Pan gaped at Tyranus.
"Normal? Almost." Tyranus smirked. Sure enough, the young Dark saiyan looked normal again. He looked like a younger version of Goku.
"But… how? You used the dragonballs, didn't you?" Pan snarled.
"Actually, no. Me and the good Emperor formed our own little team, and he used some ancient magic and potions to fix me, at least on the outside. But, I still have a little lung damage, forcing me to keep this suit, although I can go without the mask for extended periods of time. Enough time to kill you." Tyranus smirked as he grabbed Pan's throat and pushed her against the sink. She gasped for breath.
"Any last words?" Tyranus smirked.
"Gasp… actually… I do." Then, Pan smirked as she made a hissing noise.
"Huh?" Tyranus frowned. Then, he gaped as the floor started rumbling. Then, the sink opened up to reveal a giant hole.
"The Chamber of Secrets… how'd you..." Tyranus frowned.
"When you used to be best friends with the Heir of Slytherin, you pick up a few things!" Pan smirked.
"Doesn't matter. All you've done is pick your grave." Tyranus smirked as he tightened his grip, causing Pan to gasp. Then, a scream made him blink.
"What the?" he gaped as Moaning Myrtle flew above his head.
"Stupid boy! Get out!" She screamed, startling Tyranus so much that he let go of Pan. Pan smirked, and then clamped her legs around his head, getting a startled and muffled yell from her saiyan brother, exactly like what Videl once did to Gohan. Then, she flipped him over, straight down the hole. He shot down like a rocket, and wasn't able to stop. A second later, a loud crash echoed up from the ground.
"Thanks." Pan smiled as she gave a thumbs up.
"You're welcome. Hey… tell Gohan to visit me here? Please?" Myrtle asked.
"I'll tell him." Pan smirked. Then, she leaped through the hole.
"Wheeeee!" she giggled as she zoomed down the chute. Then, she landed hard on the ground.
"A lot better than when I remember it." She smirked as she looked around. She looked down to see Tyranus lying on the ground, unconscious, although, Pan wasn't sure if it was from the fall or when she landed on top of him.
"You sure picked a bad time to stop wearing a helmet!" Pan giggled as she looked around the waiting room. It was obvious that it hadn't been used in some time, given the layer of dust that had coated the room.
"I have to admit, what they did here was amazing. Although, one could argue that they tampered with a historic artifact…" Pan trailed off as she tapped the door leading to the interior. She frowned, and them smiled.
"Open." She hissed. The door then clicked, and slid open.
"That's not very smart. Riddle could get in here…" Pan frowned as she walked inside. She didn't notice when Tyranus's hand twitched.
Ravenclaw Common Room…
"Well played, Alecto, well played." Gohan smirked as Cho trembled in fear. He dropped down next to her.
"Too bad you caught the wrong person." He smirked.
"Heh, I don't think so. The Dark Lord has a particular hatred for you as well, mudblood, not to mention the headmistress. We'll be well rewarded for this." Alecto smirked as she kept her wand on them.
"Cho… when I bump your foot, duck and cover your eyes, got it?" Gohan whispered. Cho nodded.
"You know, Professor, it's a bit dark in here, don't you think?" Gohan smirked.
"What are you babbling about, mudblood?" Alecto snarled.
"Oh, I don't know, let me turn on a light!" Then, Gohan's foot bumped Cho's leg, and she immediately dropped the the ground and closed her eyes in the same instant that Gohan whipped his hands to his head.
"SOLAR FLARE!" he yelled, causing the light to explode from his hands and light up the entire room, causing Alecto to scream as she dropped her wand and covered her eyes.
"YOU FILTHY MUDBLOOD!" She screamed.
BAM! Gohan smashed his fist into her stomach, followed by him whirling as he pulled out Malfoy;s sword and slashed her across the chest, followed by a fierce kick, sending her whirling into a bookshelf, causing it to crack.
"And proud of it, Slytherin bitch! A mudblood just kicked your ass! That was for the shit you've done this year!" Gohan smirked.
"Is she…" Cho frowned.
"Probably." Gohan frowned. Then, a rumbling noise made them look up.
"I think you woke someone up." Cho frowned.
"Quick! Where's the cloak!" Gohan and Cho looked around frantically.
"Too late!" Then, Gohan wrapped his right arm around Cho and leaped into the air. An instant later, a stream of Ravenclaws, all dressed in their nightclothes, flooded into the common room. There were cries and gasps at the sight of Alecto's limp form. They closed in curiously like a hunter on a beast.
"Is she dead?" a third year girl asked.
"I don't feel a pulse…" a 6th year frowned.
"Cho, don't squirm!" Gohan hissed. His left hand was currently dug into the ceiling.
"Hey, what's this?" most of the group turned to see a first year hold up…
"Harry's cloak!" Gohan groaned.
"What is that?" a 4th year boy frowned.
"Looks like a cloak." A 5th year girl observed. Then, the first year tried the cloak on, and the room filled with gasps and shocked yells as the boy's body vanished, leaving only his head.
"That's an Invisibility Cloak!" a 6th year gaped.
"That's no ordinary cloak, that's Potter's cloak! I remember hearing stories about it!" a 7th year girl that Gohan didn't recognize gasped as the first year boy pulled the cloak off.
"Does that mean that Potter's here?" a 6th year asked with curiosity. Gohan looked up nervously at his hand, still buried in the wall. If Cho fell or his hand slipped, chaos would follow. Then, Gohan frowned.
"What?" Cho whispered.
"That first year girl has been awfully quiet, and that power. The one, by the prefects…" Gohan frowned.
"So?" Cho asked. Gohan frowned.
"This is just rumor, but we think that Cell planted four of his children in the school, one for each house, as first years, to spy on us…" Neville's voice echoed in Gohan's head. Then, the girl frowned as she glanced up.
"That's no ordinary girl!" Gohan hissed, making Cho gasp. The girl smiled as her eyes glowed red.
"Very good, Gohan Son." The girl giggled before holding her right hand up and firing a red blast from her hand at the ceiling, getting screams from the other Ravenclaws in response. Gohan dropped Cho, causing her to land softly on the couch, at the same time that he landed on the ground and drew his blade. Gasps accompanied his appearance.
"Cho?" a 5th year gasped.
"Maria?" Cho blinked.
"Enough games, Cell Junior! You'll join your master in death!" Gohan snarled.
"I'm surprised that you figured me out so fast…" the little girl chucked as she pushed a 5th and 6th year out of her way. She smirked as a red aura surrounded her. Then, she leaped at the saiyan, who blocked her punch.
"You'll never defeat the Confederacy!" she smirked.
"We'll see about that!" Gohan snarled as he kicked her in the chest, sending her flying into Ravenclaw's statue.
"Not bad… the stories about you are true…" she smirked.
"Time to chill!" Gohan smirked as he pulled out a capsule. Then, he leaped onto the air and hurled it at the Cell Junior. She gasped as the capsule smashed into he chest.
"No… NO!" she screamed. The Ravenclaws gaped as stone crept from her chest and quickly spread throughout her whole body. A second later, a stone statue was all that remained.
"And that's all she wrote!" Gohan smirked.
"Wow…" a first year breathed.
"What did you do to it?" a 7th year girl asked curiously.
"A formula. When it makes contact with Cell or someone of his similar structure, the formula turns them to stone, to stop them from regenerating. The end result is…" Gohan paused as he gave a small push to the statue, causing it to fall backwards and crack to pieces, turning into dust.
"Wow… you're like batman!" a third year boy said with admiration.
"I may not be Harry Potter, but will I do?" Gohan smirked as he cocked his blade.
"What are you doing here?" a 4th year gaped.
"Unfinished business." Gohan smirked. Then, a banging on the door made them turn.
"Alecto! Alecto, are you in there? Answer me! If he comes and we don't have him, he'll kill us all! Open the door!" Amycus Carrow yelled, making the Ravenclaws back up in fear.
"Go upstairs, hide. I'll take care of him." Gohan smirked. Many of the Ravenclaws nodded and headed. A first year girl paused as she turned and looked at Gohan.
"I don't care what anyone says, you're a real hero." she said. Then, she darted up the stairs with everyone else. Gohan smiled.
"I've got the cloak!" Cho said, snapping Gohan out of his little daze. They quickly draped the cloak over themselves. Then, Gohan heard another familiar voice.
"Might I ask what you are doing, Professor Carrow?" He heard Professor McGonagall ask.
"Trying to open this damn door! Get Flitwick!" he barked.
"But, isn't your sister in there already? Didn't she ask Professor Flitwick to let her in earlier, on extremely important business?" McGonagall asked.
"She ain't answering! You open it, old bat!" Carrow barked, making Gohan clench his fist. Then, McGonagall knocked on the door.
"Where do vanished items go?" the knocker asked.
"Into nonbeing, which is to say, everything." McGonagall answered.
"Good answer." The knocker said.
"Seems like anyone can get in." Gohan frowned.
"Only if you're smart enough." Cho frowned, offended by this remark. Then, the door opened, and Alymus rushed in, followed by McGonagall.
"My word!" McGonagall said in surprise. Alymus howled at the sight of his sister's limp form.
"Those little brats killed her!" he roared with rage.
"Don't assume that immediately, Professor Carrow. From the state of this room, it looks as if there was a ferocious battle here. And… is this… stone?" McGonagall frowned as she looked at the remains of Cell Junior.
"Don't you understand? She pressed it! And if the Dark Lord comes… and even worse… if he finds out and follows…" then, Alymus got a smile on his face.
"We can push it off on the kids. Yeah, that's what we'll do. We'll say Alecto was ambushed by the kids, them kids up there, and we'll say they forced her to press her Mark, and that's why he got a false alarm...He can punish them. Couple of kids more or less, what's the difference? Besides, the Emperor could use them as food for his pets." Alymus smiled.
"Only the difference between truth and lies, courage and cowardice, a difference, in short, which you and your sister seem unable to appreciate. But let me make one thing very clear. You are not going to pass off your many ineptitudes on the students of Hogwarts. I shall not permit it. You are no better than your supposed Emperor, who's done nothing but send us to our doom." McGonagall snarled
"Excuse me? It's not a case of what you'll permit, Minerva McGonagall. Your time's over. It's us what's in charge here now, and you'll back me up or you'll pay the price." Then, he spat on her face.
"AW HELL NO! YOU JUST MADE A FATAL MISTAKE!" Gohan roared as he ripped the cloak off himself and brought Malfoy's sword out, driving it through Alymus's chest in one swift motion. Alymus squeaked as he stared at Gohan, while McGonagall and Cho both gasped. Then, Gohan pulled back the blade, which was now stained in red blood. Alymus gasped as he stared down at his wound, before looking up one final time. Then, like a puppet without strings, he fell backward, landing hard on the ground, his arms flaying out, and his wand rolling away from his hand. (I admit, I got the idea of this scene from Troy, 2004, when Hector killed Melanous to stop him from killing Paris. Troy is also where I got the idea to have Gohan compared to Achilles.)
"Gohan! You killed him!" Cho gasped as she covered her hand with her mouth.
"At least now you can see Threstals." Gohan laughed awkwardly.
"M… Mr. Son! Ms. Chang!" McGonagall gasped as she collapsed into a chair, obviously startled by either their sudden appearance or the fact that Gohan had just killed a man.
"It's good to see you again, Professor." Gohan smirked as he cocked the blade.
"Mr Son… that was absolutely unnecessary!" McGonagall gasped.
"He spat on you." Gohan stated plainly.
"Yes, but…" McGonagall frowned.
"Hang on." Gohan frowned as his communicator vibrated.
"Talk to me." Gohan frowned.
"Hey dad, I got in, but I had a little trouble on the way." Pan frowned.
"What happened?" Gohan frowned.
"An old friend paid us a visit. Anyway, you mind telling me where the bloody fangs are, since your skeleton has no teeth?" Pan frowned as she looked up.
"Oh, right, I forgot, gramps took the teeth so that he could experiment with the venom. They're in a drawer." Gohan frowned.
"Now you tell me… wait, which one?" Pan gaped.
"One of them…" Gohan frowned. Pan frowned at a hissing noise, coming from a steel door.
"Ummmm… I better not open that." Pan frowned. Then, she remembered the communicator.
"So… everything go okay on your end?" Pan frowned.
"Almost. Carrows caught in the common room, which means that they knew we were coming. We couldn't stop her from pressing her mark." Gohan sighed.
"Son of a bitch… that's why my mark burned. Dad, he knows that we're here!" Pan gasped.
"Yeah, I've figured that out…" Gohan frowned.
"What have we done?" Pan whispered softly as she continued to search through the laboratory. She was slightly impressed with the technology. Then, her face lit up.
"YES!" she cheered as she pulled open a drawer, revealing piles of Basalisk fangs.
"And now…" Pan smiled as she took one out. Then, someone grabbed her arm, causing her to drop the communicator. She whirled her head to see Tyranus, smirking at her
"Very clever, sis, using the venom of the basalisk to kill me. After all, it never deteriorates, does it?" he smirked. Then, a hissing noise made them both turn to look at the steel door.
"So… looks like our great grandfather cloned Riddle's Basalisk! Your corpse will be its dinner!" He smirked.
"Bardock, please, I can help you. You've got your looks back, please! Come back! I thought Morgana betrayed you!" Pan gasped.
"He heh… you're right, I do hate Morgana. But, Emperor Cell and I made a deal. He fixes me, I give him the dragonballs, and we split the universe!" Tyranus smirked.
"You bastard…" Pan snarled. Then, she kicked Tyranus in the stomach, sending him flying into a large machine. He had the basalisk fang in hand. Pan leaped for her bag and pulled out Hufflepuff's Cup, smacking him across the face as he leaped at her.
"Huh… she turned it off…" Gohan frowned.
"You must flee, Son. Get out of here!" McGonagall said as she looked at Gohan.
"Why? If London fell so easily, the Dark Lord is weak. All that's needed is to kill him, and his Empire falls apart." Gohan smirked.
"Don't be arrogant, Son!" McGonagall gasped.
"We came here to find Ravenclaw's Diadem. Do you know where it is, Professor?" Gohan asked.
"What… no! It's been lost for centuries!" McGonagall sputtered.
"Professor, I came here to finish a job that Dumbledore gave me. I've already lost Ron and Hermione, and Harry's in a coma. Please… help me finish what they died for." Gohan said.
"You're here on Dumbledore's orders? We shall secure the school against He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named while you search for this — this object." McGonagall declared as she stood up.
"Is that possible?" Cho asked.
"We teachers are relatively good at magic. We should be able to hold them off for a good while. Of course, something must be done about Professor Umbridge." McGonagall smiled
"We can take care of her. But, if the Dark Lord knows that we're here, Cell won't be too far behind. And, he has millions at his disposal. They'll come hard, even thought Harry's not here. We've got to get the students out of here!" Gohan frowned.
"We are in agreement, Mr. Son. But, we're talking about hundreds of students." McGonagall said.
"I think we can evacuate them safely." Gohan then told her about the passage to the Hog's Head.
"If I can get support, we can airlift them out afterwards before Cell's men show up, that is, if Jenny got someone on the line." Gohan frowned.
"What about them?" Cho frowned as she looked at the bodies of the Carrows.
"I'll take care of that." Then Gohan flicked his wand at Alecto's body, turning it into a bone. Then, he flicked his wand at Alymus's body, turning it into a rock.
"My word, Mr. Son, your Transfiguration skills are magnificent!" McGonagall said with surprise.
"I learned from the best." Gohan smirked as he picked up the rock and bone, and dropped them out the window.
"There is something in that. We must alert the other heads of houses. You better put Potter's cloak back on." Then, three silver cats leaped from McGonagall's wand and flew out the door, lighting up the staircase as McGonagall, Gohan, and Cho hurried down the staircase. They hurried through the corridors. After descending two floors, Gohan heard footsteps following them. McGonagall seemed to have heard as well.
"Who's there?" she called.
"Hem hem!" a familiar voice said, making Gohan's blood boil as Dolores Umbridge stepped out. Gohan hissed. She hadn't changed much since their last encounter at the Ministry. She was dressed in her pink outfit from before, and she was looking around curiously.
"Where are the Carrows, Minerva?" Umbridge asked.
"How should I know, Dolores, perhaps wherever you sent them." McGonagall smiled.
"I was under the impression that the castle has an intruder." Umbridge said.
"Oh really, and who told you that?" McGonagall smirked.
"The Emperor himself." Umbridge smiled.
"Of course. The same being that you once called a criminal." McGonagall smirked.
"I was not aware that it was your night to patrol the corridors, Minerva. We have our own security now." Umbridge smirked.
"I prefer do my own observation. Forgive me for not trusting machines. You have some objection?" McGonagall asked.
"I just wonder what brought you out of bed at this late hour?" Umbridge smiled in a way that made Gohan think of bad candy.
"I thought I heard a disturbance." McGonagall said
"Really? But, it seems so quiet." Umbridge smiled. The two witches stared at each other, before Umbridge continued.
"Have you seen Harry Potter, Professor? Sure, you remember my warning when I returned." Umbridge began.
"Not Harry. Me." Gohan smirked as he hurled the Cloak off, causing Umbridge to hiss with rage as she drew her wand, at the same instant that Gohan, McGonagall, and Cho did.
"I should have known, you filthy half breed! And Ms Chang, why am I not surprised? You are as foolish as your father!" Umbridge snarled, making Cho grit her teeth in rage.
"No Fudge to protect you, Umbridge! It's three against one!" Gohan smirked.
"Incarcerus!" Then, ropes flew out of Umbridge's wand and wrapped themselves around Cho, causing her to drop to the ground with a scream of shock.
"CHO!" Gohan yelled with shock, before turning back to Umbridge with rage. McGonagall looked livid as well. He wand slashed through the air so fast that Gohan thought that Umbridge had to crumple unconscious, but her shield charm was so fast that even Gohan was forced back a little.
"HOW DARE YOU!" she screamed in rage.
"My only regret is not doing it sooner." McGonagall said fiercely.
"INCENDIO!" Gohan roared, creating a gigantic stream of fire that he sent towards Umbridge. She sent it smashing into the ceiling, which she then transformed into a cat and sent back at Gohan. McGonagall then turned the cat into a ring of fire that surrounded Umbridge. Gohan slicked his hand back at the bound Cho, sliding her out of harm's way. Gohan then created a Destructo Disk and hurled it at Umbridge, but, she deflected it with a shield charm, sending it flying through a suit of armor and through the wall.
"You're no match for us, Umbridge! Give up!" Gohan snarled as his hand glowed yellow. Then, the fire exploded outward, causing Gohan and McGonagall to cover their eyes as Gohan created a shield around them and Cho to protect themselves from the blast.
"ENOUGH! I WILL HAVE ORDER!" Umbridge screamed with a terrifying look on her face.
"Minerva!" Gohan whirled to see Professors Flitwick and Sprout sprinting up the corridor in their nightclothes, with Professor Slughorn behind them, panting. They stared at Gohan and Cho.
"Mr. Son?" Professor Flitwick asked with surprise as Professor Sprout kneeled next to Cho and freed her from her bonds.
"Hi professor! Good to see you again!" Gohan laughed. Then, he whirled just in time to barely block a killing curse from Umbridge.
"No! You'll do no murder at Hogwarts!" Flitwick yelled as he raised his wand, bringing to life the statue that Gohan had sliced. Cho, now freed, fired a Stunning Spell at Umbridge, who looked furious.
"Traitors!" she screeched.
"The only traitor here is you!" Professor Sprout yelled as she pointed her wand at Umbridge. Umbridge snarled as she took in her current situation. It was currently five against one. Then, Umbridge raised her wand again.
"STUPIFY!" A new voice roared, causing Umbridge to whirl just in time for the red spell to smash into her chest, sending her sliding across the ground to Gohan's feet, unconscious.
"Always wanted to do that." Harry smirked as he lowered his wand. A gigantic grin grew across Gohan's face as he snapped ki retraining cuffs on Umbridge's arms.
"Harry!" Cho hugged Harry, who smiled.
"I see that you're alright, Mr. Potter." McGonagall smiled.
"Thank you, professor." Harry smirked.
"Harry, you crazy son of a bitch!" Gohan grinned as he hugged his best friend.
"Good to see you too…" Harry frowned. Then, Gohan wacked him over the head.
"OW! What was that for?" Harry gaped.
"YOU IDIOT! They set up traps here for you that I walked into! And now, both Cell and Voldemort are on their way here to kill you! Great, at least we can die together!" Gohan banged his head against the wall, causing Flitwick and Sprout to turn towards McGonagall as Slughorn rushed up, panting.
"Gohan… Harry… so… good… to… see… you… again!" he panted.
"Where have you been?" Gohan frowned. Harry gasped as he found himself in the cave, gliding across the black lake towards the island.
"We've got to barricade the school!" Gohan yelled, snapping Harry out of it.
"Very well. The Emperor and he who must be named are coming." McGonagall told to the other teachers. Sprout and Flitwick gasped, while Slughorn let out a loud groan.
"These two have work to do in the castle on Dumbledore's orders. We need to put into place every protection which we are capable of while they do what they need to do." McGonagall said.
"You do realize that we cannot keep the Emperor or you-know-who out indefinitely." Flitwick squeaked.
"But we can hold them off." Professor Sprout smiled.
"I suggest that we get everyone into the Great Hall after setting up protections. We can evacuate the underage students while the overage students can stay anf fight if they want." Gohan smirked.
"Well said, Mr. Son." McGonagall said.
"Very well. We'll meet you in the Great Hall in 20 minutes with my students." Professor Sprout said, rushing off down the stairs, muttering things to herself.
"Don't fight General Morbius on your own!" Gohan yelled out, but Professor Sprout ignored him. Professor Flitwick rushed off as well.
"We shall meet you and the Ravenclaws in the Great Hall, Filius!" McGonagall said. They had just reached the door when Slughorn finally spoke.
"My word! What a predicament! Gohan, Minerva, is this wise? After all, those who cross his path meet with horrible fates!" Slughorn sputtered.
"The same applies to Death Eaters who cross my path! I haven't forgotten that the Death Eaters hung a Slytherin Banner during the Battle of New York!"" Gohan snarled.
"I shall expect you and the Slytherins in the Great Hall in twenty minutes, also. If you wish to leave with your students, we shall not stop you. But if any of you attempt to sabotage our resistance, or take up arms against within this castle, then, Horace, we duel to kill." McGonagall said coldly.
"I couldn't agree more. I've killed plenty of Slytherins in my travels!" Gohan smirked.
"Minerva!" Slughorn gaped.
"The time has come for Slytherin House to decide upon its loyalties. Go and wake your students, Horace." McGonagall ordered. Slughorn sputtered as he slowly walked off.
"It appears that we are in need of your legendary skills, Mr. Son." McGonagall said with a smiled.
"Harry, any luck with the diadem?" Gohan frowned as they followed McGonagall.
"No. And, he knows that we're hunting Hocurxes, when you stole the cup. He's at the cave." Harry whispered.
"Sigh… then we have less time than I thought." Gohan frowned.
"Gohan! Harry!" the two turned to see Cho run up to them.
"What's up, Cho?" Gohan frowned.
"I was wondering. You were looking for the diadem, right?" Cho asked. Both boys nodded.
"Well… maybe the Gray Lady knows where it is." Cho said.
"The ghost of Ravenclaw?" Gohan blinked.
"Yes. Luna's one of the only ones that she'll talk to, but maybe, since you're friends of Luna, she'll talk to you." Cho frowned.
"Thanks, Cho!" Gohan grinned. Cho nodded as she took off.
"And now… Perotoum Locomotar!" McGonagall said as she raised her wand. Then, the statues came to life and leaped off the walls.
"Hogwarts is threatened! Defend the boundaries, protect us, do your duty to our school!" McGonagall cried as the statues ran past her.
"Now, you two! Return to your friends and tell them to join us in the Great Hall. I shall rouse the other Gryffindors!" McGonagall said as she rushed up the staircase.
"Where's Pan?" Harry yelled as he followed Gohan down the stairs, past teachers and prefects leading students to the Great Hall, ignoring the cries that followed them.
"It's Potter!"
"Harry Potter!"
"It's the Hero Without Fear!"
"I thought he was in London!"
"I just saw him!"
"She went to the Chamber of Secrets to destroy the cup!" Gohan yelled as they sprinted towards the door that led to the Room of Requirement.
BOOM! Pan ducked as Tyranus's next swing smashed into a machine. Then, Pan flipped Tyranus over her, sending him flying into the steel door. He bounced off the steel door and smashed his fist across Pan's face. Pan ducked as Tyranus held his hands over his head and fired a ki blast at Pan, soaring over her head and smashing into the steel door. Then, the two of them leaped at each other, colliding with a loud explosion. They snarled as they looked at each other. Then, a cracking noise made them both turn to see the steel door crack. Then, Tyranus took advantage of Pan's distraction and flipped her over, causing her to land on her back.
"Now… time to die!" Tyranus roared as he held the basalisk fang over his head. Pan grabbed the Hufflepuff Cup and held it in front of her. Then… the fang smashed into the cup.
"GASP!" Harry gasped as he staggered into the wall, his scar searing.
"Harry, what happened?" Gohan gaped.
"Pan… did…it…" Harry gasped as he staggered up. Pan gasped as she dropped the cup, which spiraled away from her. Then, the room rumbled as the water roared up around them and electrical cables snapped, sending sparks everywhere. Tyranus took off first towards the entrance. Pan quickly took off after him. She turned to see the water morph into faces of Voldemort as it pursued them. Pan squeaked. Then, as quickly as it began… the water collapsed. The room was quiet, except for the sparking machines, causing Pan and Tyranus to turn and stare. Then, a cracking noise emerged as cracks spread across the steel door. A second later, it fell apart, revealing a dark room. A second later, a hissing noise emerged.
"We'll finish this later." Tyranus snarled. Then, he sprinted out the door.
"Deal." Pan said softly, before running out the door. Then, a snake poked its head out, and looked around.
"Food… Kill…" the snake hissed as it slid over the walkway.
"Thank god!" Gohan smiled as they reached the Room of Requirement's outer door. After a moment, the door opened, and they rushed in. The first thing was that Gohan noticed that the room was much more packed then before. He saw old members of his Quidditch Team, such as Katie, Angelica, Alicia, and Oliver. Also there was Kingsley, Lupin, Bill, Fleur, Luna, all the Weasleys, except Ginny, Dean, Johnson, Kiara… (Gohan blinked in surprise at the sight of Percy.), and…
"Gramps! Dad!" Gohan grinned as he hugged his father, Bardock, and Kiara. He also noticed a few saiyans in a back corner, including Zenok, who smirked at the saiyan.
"You started a party without us?" Bardock smirked.
"How'd you guys get here? I left you in London!" Gohan gaped at Johnson and his men.
"We got the message." Fred, George, and Dean raised their coins.
"And they told us, so we came along, after telling our superiors." Johnson smirked as he reloaded his gun.
"As for me, picked up that signal from Griffin at the same time that your friends got that message. We knew that there'd be a party wherever you went, so I called all the saiyans. They were quite eager to come along." Bardock smirked
"What's going on?" Katie yelled out.
"We're gathering everyone in the Great Hall to evacuate the younger students and get organized! We're fighting!" Gohan yelled, getting cheers and roars as they rushed past him. The majority of the crowd thinned out, leaving the Weasleys, Gohan, Harry, Lupin, Jenny, and Kiara.
"Wait for us!" Yamcha yelled as he followed them.
"Gohan! Thank god you're alright!" Ms. Weasley hugged him, before doing the same to Harry.
"It's great to see you all again… even you, Percy." Gohan frowned at Percy.
"I… I'm sorry! I was a fool! I was an idiot, I was a pompous prat, I was a - a-" Percy stammered
"Ministry-loving, family-disowning, power-hungry moron." Fred finished, causing Kiara and Jenny to giggle.
"Yes, I was!" Percy admitted
"Well, you can't say fairer than that." Gohan chuckled as he held his hand out, which Percy nervously shook. Ms. Weasley burst into tears of happiness at the sight.
"You brought her?" Gohan frowned at his father as he pointed at Kiara.
"She insisted. She's an adult, what was I to do?" Goku frowned.
"You're not keeping me out of this!" Kiara snarled at her brother.
"Am I late? I do hope that I haven't missed anything!" Gohan blinked with shock as Arnold Weasley came out of the hole. He paused in shock, clearly not expecting to see his brother and family there.
"Arnold?" Mr. Weasley asked with shock. The other Weasleys were silent, Ms. Weasley looking between the two brothers with a scared look on her face.
"It's… been a long time, Uncle Arnold." Bill frowned.
"William… you've grown up… and with a beautiful wife! I'm sorry that I wasn't able to attend the wedding." The older Weasley laughed nervously.
"Hello, Arnold. What are you doing here? The last time I heard about you, you lost your race for President." Mr. Weasley said bitterly.
"Ah… I… well…" Arnold stammered as he looked down.
"Enough! You two used to be so close when you were younger! You used to behave exactly like Fred and George!" Molly screamed, making the twins gape at their father.
"I'm not the one who ran off to the States instead of fighting like a man!" Mr. Weasley yelled.
"At least I'm not under your damn shadow anymore! I'm not the one obsessed with muggle junk!" he yelled, getting an oooo from the twins.
"At least I have a family! You broke mum's heart when you ran away! You didn't even show up to the funeral!" Mr. Weasley yelled.
"Stop it! NOW!" Ms. Weasley screamed, making everyone cringe. Percy gulped.
"Sigh… father always like you better. Always getting higher marks, prefect, head boy…" Arnold frowned.
"I always had to bail you out… getting caught by Oorg just so you could sneak into the castle after hiding those dungbombs in his cabin… not to mention the time I caught you with Patricia Simpson in a broom closet." Arthur chuckled.
"Hey, the look on his face was priceless. And, she was hot. But, you only had eyes for Molly, the one girl who always resisted my charm…" Arnold trailed off.
"Why did we argue, anyway? Mr. Weasley frowned.
"I forgot." Arnold laughed. Then, the two men hugged each other, and Ms. Weasley burst into tears again.
"So, how's Victoria?" Gohan grinned.
"She's great! She's talking now!" Goku grinned as he pulled out a picture and handed it to Gohan, showing a picture of Vicoria, who was in a tiny pink suit and had a truff of black hair on her head, shaking a small fist at the camera.
"Really? And I missed it?" Gohan said softly.
"Well, she hasn't actually said something, just babbling. She keeps putting weird things in her mouth." Goku frowned. Then, he looked at Remus.
"How's your son, Remus?" Goku asked.
"Son?" Gohan blinked in surprise.
"Oh, yes! He's with Tonks, at her mother's house!" Remus stammered as he pulled out a photograph of a baby boy with blue hair waving his tiny fists. Gohan frowned.
"Victoria is cuter!" he declared, causing Remus to frown.
"Uh-oh." Jenny gulped.
"Excuse me? Can your sister change her hair color?" Remus smirked.
"Does your son have a tail?" Gohan countered. It didn't take long for the two of them to start yelling at each other.
"ENOUGH!" Jenny screamed, making both men stare at her, even Ms. Weasley blinked in surprise.
"This is not the time to be arguing over whose baby is cuter! We've got certain death heading straight for us! We need to get ready to fight!" Jenny said.
"Right! Oh, I almost forgot! I pulled a few strings in the government, but I managed it!" Arnold turned as he held his hand out. Then…
"Ginny?" Gohan, Harry, and all the Weasleys gaped as Arnold helped Ginny down.
"Ginny!" Mr and Ms Weasley hugged Ginny in the next second, tears on their faces at the happiness of seeing their daughter again.
"Mum!" Ginny sobbed softly.
"We thought you were dead, Gin!" Fred wiped his eyes with relief. Then, he whirled on his brother.
"Are you out of your mind, bringing her here?" Mr. Weasey asked with disbelief and rage at his younger brother.
"I can fight!" Ginny insisted as she wretched free of her mother's grip.
"You're underage!" Ms. Weasley insisted at her daughter.
"I'm an android now! I'm worth a hundred wizards!" Ginny snarled.
"Don't get overzealous, kid." Gohan turned to look at Android 18, leaning in the corner.
"What?" Ginny snapped.
"Don't get yourself killed over stupidity." The android said.
"FINE! I'll just go to Aunt Muriels or something!" Ginny snarled.
"Now hang on a second. If there's one thing that I learned about American politics, it's how to compromise." Gohan said, making Jenny and Arnold frown.
"Oh really? That's rich, coming from you." Ginny bit off the last part.
"Look, she can stay in here so that she can be on the scene if needed!" Gohan suggested.
"Fine." Ms Weasley said sternly.
"GAHHH!" They whirled to see Pan rush in the door and slam it behind her.
"Pan! You're alive!" Gohan blinked.
"Yeah! Tyranus almost killed me, and there's a giant basalisk down there!" she screamed.
"Basalisk? That's impossible, I killed it in second year!" Gohan frowned.
"Well, something that hissed was down there! Here's your stupid cup!" Pan hurled the broken cup to Gohan's feet.
"That's ridiculous, the only way that a basalisk could be down there was if…" then, Gohan trailed off.
"When I get my hands on Gramps! So that's what he was doing! He cloned the monster of Slytherin!" Gohan snarled.
"Not the time for that! Come on, we've got to go to the Great Hall!" Harry said as he tugged Gohan's arm.
"Right, come on!" Gohan yelled as he ran out of the Room of Requirement, the others, save Ginny, behind him.
"This ends tonight, Cell!" Gohan snarled under his breath.
Elsewhere…
"Oh… it certainly will end, boy." Cell chuckled as he sat on his dragon, looking over at the sea of black that marched forward in front of him, with Lord Voldemort next to him. He looked up to see ships soar over him, headed in the same direction.
"Yess, finally." Voldemort hissed with a smile of glee on his face.
Very soon, the fighting begins! Also, who do you think is cuter, Victoria or Teddy? Review!
