Chapter Twenty-One:
I watched silently with Hermione sitting next to me as we watched the other seventh year Lions and Ravens walked in. My nakama sat around me in a tight unit while watching the eldest students walk in. It was a surprise to only see 3 lions and almost 26 Ravens in the room. I felt many curious eyes, but chose to ignore them as I sat on top of the desk. Balls of magic danced around my fingers and shimmered in the light. They were mostly balls of lightning, fire, ice, water, and a curious element known as Ether. I never truly experimented with it because it was Isis's element not mine, but lately I've become fascinated by the element that my dear friend had used and loved so much. Her love for ether and thus spirit was on the same level of mine for ice. Ice was one of my favorite elements in any situation and the best answer I had other than lightning. I let out a sigh and let the balls of magic fade as Professor Flitwick walked inside. I moved off of my perch on my desk and sat down as the diminutive Professor stood up on an enchanted platform rather than the stack of books. He went through roll call and spoke, "Hello everyone! I'm pleased to see those of you that made it into my class even if it is a sad day to see so many having to retake their past year or years. I would like to first welcome Ms. Ashferd back to Hogwarts."
I gave the Professor a warm smile, "I thank you Professor. I...Did miss the school while I was away."
Hermione snorted causing me to roll my eyes. She already knew I loved the school almost as much as I loved the Sunny, The Moby Dick, The Red Force, The Sub, Dawn, and One Piece Island. I really need to get working on that ship design anyway. I filed that into the back of my mind in the file for things to do before focusing back on Flitwick. He smiled though it didn't truly meet his eyes. It seemed he was sad that I only missed the school rather than the people. I felt a burst of warmth towards the little man and decided to speak to him as soon as possible since he seemed to be one of the few that actively cared for his students...Even if Luna had been bullied. I almost scowled at the thought, but held it back as Flitwick said, "I'm...Pleased to hear that. I have to ask what type of magic did you learn that was like charms?"
I hum and went through the various magics I learned before shrugging, "I believe that I learned a little, but I learned so much it will be difficult to decide which falls into the category you wish to speak of."
Flitwick looked at me with a delighted smile, "Can you show us at least one of these magics?"
I hum and nod before creating a ball of ice in my hand. The ball began to swirl as magic slowly began to build in the middle. I closed my eyes and slowly added the influence of my healing magic causing gasps to echo around me. I shaped the magic slowly so as to not disrupt the flow and cause an explosive collapse. The magic slowly took on the shape of a rather large sheep and I slowly opened my eyes to see it. I looked around myself before humming softly causing the room to fall silent. I felt a presence on the edge of my sense and called it forth as I hummed louder. I felt my lips twitch as a glowing air spirit appeared before my eyes. It looked at the construct in my hand then at me before nodding. It danced towards me and placed a hand on the sheep's head before being absorbed into it. I slowly withdrew my magic and the sheep began to dance in my hand. I created a golden colored road of wind causing the sheep to dance along it as I allowed the wind to rise into the air. The class whispered and let out gasps of delight as I created a few more animals. I felt a soft smile appeared on my lips as I watched the faces of the students look at my creations in awe. It had been a long time since my work was seen as such. I had forgotten the feeling it brought me when someone who hadn't known of my ability to do this saw it for the first time. It was a lovely feeling and I was already adding it to my plans. I soon allowed the animals to disappear much to my classmates dismay as I say, "I hope that is a good enough example."
"Who taught you to do that?" Flitwick as causing me to hum.
"The various spirits that inhabited the island that I spent much of my time on," I answer softly causing gasps to ring through the air.
"But the spirits left the wizarding world behind thousands of years ago!" Someone protested causing me to snort.
"They did, but I encountered them on an island that's far away from here in the east," I answer since it wasn't actually a lie with Dawn being in the East Blue and a few months months away from the Grand Line, "In fact, Every island around it was full of spirits,"
"Where the fuck is this place?" One of the lions asked causing me to sigh.
"In a place that I will not inform you of," I say while smirking at the ravens as they tried to protest, "Try looking up the names Devil Fruit, Haki, Grandline, and Poneglyph," I saw the uneasiness in their movements and smirked, "Now shall we get to the lesson Professor?"
"Ah Yes," Flitwick agreed, "Today we will be working on..."
Potions
I enter the room with a smirk and found Salazar standing at the head of the room. Snape glared at me as he stood next to Salazar. My smirk widened and when Salazar turned I flipped him the bird while giving an innocent smile to Salazar as he turned around. I took a seat at one of the cauldrons and listened as the various students made their way in. Salazar quickly gave us a syllabus and explained what we would be doing this year. I looked through it and noted that each of potions were high level potions. It made me smirk wildly as Neville banged his head against the table. I pat his back comfortingly as he groaned, "Damn it! We're going to use ingredients that I almost always end up blowing it all up."
I shook my head as Salazar gave us a raised eyebrow, "Will everything be alright Ms. Ashferd, Mr. Longbottom?"
"Yes Professor, but I must request that I be partnered with Neville for the majority of the potions we shall brew," I informed the man with an almost cheshire grin, "Or we may not have a classroom by the time to tournament starts,"
Salazar looked between us before sighing, "Alright just try not to cause any trouble."
"Aye Aye," I gave a lazy salute.
Neville gave me a smile of thanks as the class quickly passed with Salazar talking about what we're going to be doing. I was pleased to note that Snape would only be watching us rather than actually teaching. It was going to be fun watching the bat try to hold in his anger.
Lunch
I leaned against the table as I nibbled on a piece of chicken. The cry of a hawk caused many to look up and I gave the hawk a raised eyebrow as it landed before me. It had cole grey feathers with slightly red tint to it's wing. I reached out and took the letter from it's back as Luna fed it some fish. The hawk flew through the window as I opened the letter and Hermione asked, "Who wrote you?"
I looked over the letter and hummed, "Luffy. You can tell from the hand writing."
"What does he want?" Neville asked causing me to shrug.
I look it over before snorting, "Luffy's whining about not having me around. Sanji is preventing him from eating more than breakfast, Lunch, after lunch snack, and Dinner. He's bored from not play fighting with me," Snickers rang from my Nakama, "He also informed me that Law and Robin are spending hours in the library together."
"Kai-" Tracy began only for me to glare at her as I threw up a silencing ward.
"Law is looking for a way to come here for a day or two outside of Hogsmeade," I say causing her to yelp, "Law would never, ever do what you were about to suggest," I turn away from her, "I know him better than you do,"
"Sorry Kai," She apologized causing me to glance at her, "Please forgive me,"
"Only if you willingly stand up and announce that you love Daphne to everyone in the Great Hall," I say while taking down the silencing ward.
"Damnit," She cursed before rising and shouting, "I, Tracy Mikari Davis love Daphne Kwoeniz Greengrass and will do anything for my queen," She sat down and gave me a glare, "Happy now?"
"Very," I say with a smirk, "Lets eat. We have class soon. Make sure you eat enough to hold you over, but no more than that,"
"Yes Captain," Was the reply I was given.
Care for Magical creatures
I ran a hand through my hair as I looked at Hagrid from my place in one of the trees. He held a leash in his hand which was connected to a collar wrapped around a crup's neck. The other seventh years looked at the dog with curious eyes, but were unwilling to approach. I sighed and jumped out of my tree causing Luna to whine softly since she didn't have class at the moment. I gave her a soft smile, but didn't do anything because I would be back for her soon. I quickly walked over to the Half-giant and spoke softly, "Hagrid? May speak with this one?"
"Ya can unda'nd 'im?" Hagrid asked causing me to nod.
"Aye I can," I answer causing whispers to echo from everyone, "Can I?"
"Go a'ead Las'," He said causing me to smile.
Hagrid moved away slightly and I crouched down to look into the crups eyes. They were a curious shade of grey that reminded me vaguely of Law. I felt my lips twitch as I wondered if I should look up a spell to reveal someone's spirit animal. I really would love to see if Law was a wolf or a leopard like I thought he was. I shoved those thoughts into the back of my mind and spoke softly, "Little one. Speak with me please."
"Who are you?" The crup asked in a clearly feminine voice with a scottish accent, "You smell of moonlit nights crested by snowfall during deep winter. Ink and blood follow that scent as well as the scent of the children of moon and winter. The scent of the sea is strong, yet an archaic scent flows around you as well," The crup took a deep breath, "You also smell of the flower of the moon, yet it is faint...The scent of death overshadows it," The crups eyes were sharp as they stared into my own, "Who are you and why do you smell of such things?"
The information would not do well if the wrong person heard it, but the ones that could do something were in the world I call home. I felt my lips twitch as I murmur, "My name is Ashferd D. Lunar Kaileara. The scent of that you smelt were due to both my blood, my devil fruit, and my magic," The crup looked at me in surprise, "What of you, young Crup. What is your name?"
"My mother called me the one who walks in lightning," The crup answered softly, "My brother called me Lightwalker," I felt my lips twitch at that, "Are you the one they call Moon divider, mistress of the frost, and the true wielder of deaths favored scythe?"
"They call me the Lunar Divide and the Feral Frost Mistress," I answer with an amused smile, "But the true wielder of deaths favored scythe is not one that I am familiar with," I shook my head lightly, "How did that name come about?" I paused before asking, "May I call you Raito?" At her curious look, "It means light in japanese,"
She nodded before answering my first question, "The name began with the warriors descended from the brute of war and the fiery master of the forge. It was carried by the elves and the fey while the spirits that still live here passed it on to those born of chaos," Raito looked at me with sharp eyes, "May I see him? May I see the one that brings judgement upon all tainted souls?"
I nodded and stood up while murmuring, "As you wish Raito," I felt for Black's handle and once found, I brought it out of my pocket space, "This is the Black scythe of judgement. Forged by lady Sora and imbued with the power of the fallen archangel Lucifer," Gaps rang around the clearing as I buried the but of my scythe into the ground to lean against him, "He has never tasted the blood of an innocent even with the thousands of other wielders," I allow my trademark cheshire grin stretch across my face, "Any who he finds unworthy of even touch him will find themselves dead within an hour unless they are innocent. Any below the age of 11-13 will be unharmed except for a small scar and a warning to never try to touch him again."
Whispered exclamations of fear at the sight of the gleaming white blade, but I ignored it as I focused upon the young crup. She stared at my scythe in awe before walking forward and coming close to me. She leaned forward and touched the long shaft causing light to glow between the two. I felt a strange warmth flow through me and tug at my magic. My eyes widen and I knelt down to stare into her eyes as she removed her nose from the shaft before she murmured, to my shock, in ancient greek, "A true bond to one of my eldest friends. Treat him well young one. You will need it."
"Who are you?" I whisper as shock filled me, "What are you?"
She gave me a mysterious smile as she moved away from me as light shined brightly around her. I shield my eyes as gasps filled the air and a scent that I had not smelled since my first life flooded my senses. The scent of death and anguish, fire and magic, the night breeze upon an open grave, and the scent of souls left unguided to lady Sora. I opened my eyes and gasped in shock. Kiyo spoke softly, "A Goddess."
Hair seemingly spun from darkest night. Eyes the shade of purest, ever shifting jewels. Skin as pale as death itself, yet shone with an inner light. A grey cloak covered her body with a few green skulls stitched into the border. A beautifully crafted obsidian colored staff with a bright blue jeweled dogs head sitting a top of it. I whispered a name that I never thought I would say before they all came, "Hecate...W-What are y-you doing here?"
Gasps resounded through the air as she grinned at me brightly. She didn't speak aloud as the world suddenly turned grey and slowed to a stop. Hecate spoke in her whispery, yet flowing voice, "Hello again dear little one."
"What are you doing here Hecate?" I asked again with strength in my voice.
She chuckled and replied, "I came to see the one that wielded Black. It's been years since that blade made it's appearance not to mention the stir something powerful made crossing the lines not once, but two times."
I growled softly as I facepalmed, "I knew Dumbledore would cause something like this to happen, but fucking hell!"
"You were the center of the first one?" Hecate asked causing me to nod, "How is that lame excuse for a wizard involved?"
I frowned as Kiyo gave Hecate a look from my shoulder. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair, "I for some reason was chosen to be the 'girl-who-lived'," I used air quotes as she stared at me, "And I ended up being born to the Potters who happened to be Artemis and Loki," I growled under my breath, "Now I'm almost like a fucking forbidden child, but that doesn't count the fact that I was taken to another world by Luna and Davey due to not being able to handle the abuse my so called uncle put me through," I began to pace, "I was fucking reborn to a noble turned marine and the alpha bitch of the Ashferd clan, Anastasia Ashferd," I ignored the goddess as I let out steam and explained all the fuckery that was my life, "...and then my Nakama managed to get through the lines with the help of Luna and Davey. I've spent the time since then with my lover and my Nakama," I frowned deeply, "And that's my tale," I pause as I began to blush, "Sorry for going off like that. I can usually talk with Law about this shit, but for the last week I've been away. It hurts Hecate. I've found my place in the world I call home and yet I've been brought back here for a fate that I did not want," I turned to her with a deep frown on my face, "I'm stuck here with my Nakama and soon the lines between this world and the one that I love will collapse completely."
"That's what we've all been feeling, hasn't it?" Hecate asked causing me to nod.
"The sea's between the two will collide as the worlds lines shatter," I felt a soft smile appear on my face, "Poseidon and the others will worry for their domains as Thalassa will never give control of her domain to anyone," Hecate looked at me in shock, "She is too strong to bow to one such as them. She is a being of freedom like a wolf and she will never give up her children,"
"You speak as if..." she trailed off causing me to nod, "You are one of her children,"
"Aye I am," I say while bringing forth my devil fruit powers, "I am one of her children. I ate a fruit known as a Devil fruit. I am bound to her as I am bound to the moon. I can not live without the sea, but if I even touch it I feel weak. The legend is that Thalassa created the fruits to give those she favors the ability to become her children. The fates however said that she had to make a choice: Either her children can never walk on dry land or forever be weak to the sea," I close my eyes as the memories of the story filled me, "She spent years trying to decide and tried both ways, but in the end she could never truly take away her chosens freedom," I took a deep breath, "Her chosen walk on land and are barred from the sea unless they use a special coating or a special vessel like a submarine...Or a specific type of magic," I gave her a sheepish smile as I opened my eyes again, "I usually can ignore the drain being in the sea brings if I am in animal form,"
Hecate looked at me in amusement before frowning, "Artemis has gained memories from that time, but never knew that you would be her daughter reincarnated. If what you say is true, then Zeus has truly lost control of you."
I snort as Yukina muttered, "As if he ever had control of her, he does realize that she only stuck around to keep those she loved safe and Hestia happy."
"True," Hecate murmured before pausing and looking at the sky, "Damn it seems my time is up," She turned to me and walked over to me, "It seems that my time is up,"
I nodded with a smile, "I ask only that you do not reveal who exactly I am just yet. I have no wish for Zeus to come here and causing trouble for me...Well more trouble then I'm in at the moment," She chuckled and nodded, "If you must tell someone, tell Hestia and Eris. They're the only ones that I can actually trust at the moment except for you and perhaps Thanatos."
"What of Hades?" She asked causing me to shake my head.
"No," I answer with a deep sigh, "In an argument with his brothers, information could be let slip unless I get a vow out of him," I ran a hand through Kiyo's fur, "I guess this is goodbye for now?"
"Yes," She smiled at me and pulled me into a hug before letting me go, "If you ever need it, whistle with your magic and my hounds will answer you call," She place her hand on my cheek and rubbed the mark that sat there, "An Ashferd and a D. You sure do know how to change things up," She shook her head, "I'm happy that you've finally found your one. Keep him close,"
"I will," I murmur softly, "May the spirits and the fates watch over you Hecate,"
"And you as well," She murmured softly.
I watched as she disappeared and the crup from before appeared. She winked at me and I rolled my eyes as the world unfroze. I snorted softly and muttered, "Always disappearing with disguises."
Defense
I walked inside and took a seat at the back of the room. Luna sat next to me and we looked at the front of the room. Helga stared at me with amusement causing Hermione to ask, "How come our defense professor isn't Godric Gryffindor?"
"Godric is the combat specialist yes, but I am the defense specialist," She answered causing me to snicker.
Fred and George groaned before handing me ten sickles each with a bag of chocolates. Hermione stared at me and ask, "When did you have the time to bet?"
"This morning," I answer with a slight grin, "When you were getting ready for the day after your steamy night with the twins," Hermione blushed darkly, "Ms. Helga?" I asked causing her to look at me with a raised eyebrow, "What subject does Godric teach?"
"He teaches history," I felt my mouth drop at that causing the founder to giggle, "Call me Helga," I nodded as she said, "Godric has always loved history because it allows for him to tell stories most of the day. You'll have him tomorrow,"
I smile at that before asking, "What will you teach us?"
"Many spells and curses used to protect yourself," She answered with a smile, "Without the whole dark and light pretence,"
"What do you mean?" One of the Ravenclaws asked causing me to sigh.
"Helga?" I ask causing her to nod, "Can I explain it or at least my view on it?"
She hummed softly before nodding, "Alright, but please keep it slightly short unless I say otherwise."
"Of course," I agree before turning to the class, "Magic is not defined by dark and light. It is full of greys much like real life," I smirked upon finding everyone staring at me, "It is all based on intent. You could use a curse like the imperious to stop someone from killing someone or perhaps prevent someone from trying to jump off a building," I saw the looks on their face and sigh at the stupidity of the wizarding world, "You could use the levitation charm to levitate an anvil over someones head and drop it on their head," The few muggle borns in the room giggle or chuckle, "Or use the banishing charm on a knife and banish it at them. It could kill them," I gave them all a grin, "In truth, magic is magic. It all deals with intent, will, imagination, and strength of soul. Through those four things, you can get any reaction you want out of your magic," I felt my grin turn manic, "We can do anything! Wandless magic and other lost magics were lost simply because people began to see things as black and white. Magic is a grey area that can never truly be anything else," I allow my grin to fade, "Look at ways you can use magic rather than allowing the ministry to tell you what to do with it,"
Helga nodded and said, "True and it is the same with magical creatures."
Dinner
I leaned against the table with a small grin. Today had ended up real well and I never had to deal with Ronald. It was awesome!

Omake: Watching the niece
I tapped my pencil against my sketch pad as I thought about what to draw. I look up when I heard the door creak open and felt a smile stretch across my face as Law walked in, "She asleep?"
"Yes," He answered and flopped down next to me, "How in the world did my sister convince us to watch her brat?"
I snort and leaned against him, "Because we need the experience for when we have our kid."
Law snorted and gave me a smirk, "We could get started on that right now."
I gave him a raised eyebrow, "Law?"
"Yes?" He asked while pulling me close.
"You do realize that we have a child in our house?" I ask causing him to nod as he pressed his lips to my neck, "Do you see the problem with this?"
"No," He replied, "We've done it when Luffy was in the house remember?"
"Luffy can sleep through anything," I deadpan, "He slept through that tornado that hit, the time mansion caught fire, and the time Kara was messing with explosives and blew up her lab," I gave him an unamused look as I pulled away from him, "A child however can't sleep through that,"
"Then what do you suggest we do?" He asked with a raised eyebrow, "It's one of my few days off and I want to do something,"
I shrug before humming, "We could watch a movie."
"Surgeons attack three?" He asked hopefully.
"No. Last time we watched that I ended up falling asleep while you ended up try out something you saw in the movie," I reminded him causing him to wince slightly, "I still can't believe you tried to dissect Luffy,"
He grimaced, "Then what do you suggest?"
"Anything except that movie," I say causing him to sigh.
"Jurassic Park?" He asked hopefully.
"Sure so long as we make sure Jamie doesn't come in," I say causing him to grin.
Middle of movie
Just as we reached a really good point in the movie, I heard the door open. I pulled away from Law and look to the side to see Jamie walking in. Jamie looked just like Minx, who looked like Law, only with Grey hair streaked with black and neon blue as well as pale blue eyes. I paused the movie and ask, "What's up Jamie?"
"Auntie Kai?" She asked as she walked over to me.
"Yes kitten?" I ask while bending down to pick up the five year old.
"When will mommy come pick me up?" She asked causing me to hum.
"After your father and her finish their date," I answer while giving her a pout, "Don't you like spending time with me?"
"I do auntie," She said with wide eyes that made her look incredibly cute, "But I want something sweet or to do something,"
I hum and look around the room before spotting my sketch pad, "How would you like to learn to draw?"
"Really?" She asked causing me to nod, "Awesome!"
I gave Law a smirk and I settle down to teach the kitten.
After Jamie leaves
I leaned back against the couch as Law walked inside the room, "That was exhausting, but fun."
"I didn't know that you like teaching people," He commented as he stalked over to me, "What else do you like doing that you haven't told me?"
I gave him a grin and said, "Many things, but you," I point at him and gesture for him to come to me, "Have to make me."
"I can think of many ways to do that my wolf," He practically purred, "Shall we see what I can get out of you?"
I grinned at him and say, "Why not?"
