Last time: Tsunade made an appearance and more. What will happen now?
Now on to chapter …15!
Dumbledore continued his speech however, he stopped abruptly confusing the staff and students, but then...
"Hem, hem," it was Dolores Umbridge standing on her feet.
Dumbledore ran a hand threw his beard then smiled going back to his seat. Many were surprised by the act apparently some students were smirking; judging by the reactions this didn't happen normally.
"Thank you headmaster," Umbridge said simpering, "for the wondrous welcome." Her voice was high pitch, girly even to the point that it sounded breathy. She smiled showing her pointy white teeth. Harry disliked this woman and it wasn't just because she looked like a deformed toad either. "It so good to be back at Hogwarts! To seeing smiling faces looking at me!"
Harry looked around no one was- correction the whole hall wasn't even paying attention (save for Hermione ) and his sister and her friend wasn't even giving the head table a second glance. If only he knew.
"I am looking forward to getting to know you all, and I'm sure we'll be very good friends!"
Harry had to bite his lip from not laughing and glanced around once more. Apparently he wasn't the only one and he saw Haku and her friend Zabuza-no emotion what so ever, but they did glance at each other.
Haku turned away swiftly as to not laugh. Comparing her to Gato was wrong, yet it sounded just right. "I'm sure that's not the case," she whispered softly in his ear and Zabuza actually rolled his eyes.
When Umbridge spoke again it was more business-like than the breathy tone she spoke with moments ago. "The Ministry of Magic has always considered the education of young, aspiring witches and wizards of the upmost importance." She bowed to the teachers as she continued with the last of the first part of her speech; "Although each headmaster has brought something new to this... historic school, progress for the sake of progress must be discouraged. Let us preserve what must be preserved, perfect what can be perfected and prune practices that ought to be... prohibited!"
She sat back with a joyous smile. Dumbledore clapped and stood," Thank you ...Dolores for that illuminating speech."
"Indeed illuminating," Hermione commented.
"If illuminating you mean by purging than yes," Haku answered softly.
"Wait you two were listening to that crap?" Ron interjected.
"It wasn't crap as you say," Haku answered before Hermione could. "There's always something underneath the underneath."
Hermione nodded in agreement.
"What?" Ron said confused. "Underneath…? What you talking about?!" the last part sounding as if he was unconvinced which he was.
Hermione sighed exasperated. "She means that it explained a lot."
"Really," said Harry blinking; "because that sounded like a load of waffle to me."
"Well," Haku stated softly. "The ingredients-
"Haku don't give it away if they can't figure it out." The ones that were sitting closer looked at Zabuza with his scowling features and his lower portion of his face hidden by a mask; they never expected him to open his mouth, but they didn't know what he said though.
Haku nodded if Zabuza –san said so than there was no way around it.
"What about the ingredients of the waffle?" Ron asked baffled.
Hermione rolled her eyes, "honesty you two could learn something from, Haku."
Harry grinned sheepishly and Ron whined. "Come on, Mione tell us!"
Hermione shook her head, "later."
Dumbledore clapped his hands once more. "Yes, yes most intriguing I dare say. Now, before we all head to our chambers and dorms for the night I have one announcement that I have seemed to have forgotten. "His eyes twinkled as he smiled. "As I stated prior to the school year we have found Halienne Potter-he coughed, "Although now she is to be called Haku… and she has finally been reunited with her brother here at Hogwarts."
Many gasped and whispers began around the hall.
"She, "Dumbledore spoke silencing all. "Has been sorted into Gryffindor and I hope that for her sake that we all get along and make her feel welcome alongside her friend." Slytherin's sneered in disgust another Potter just what they needed.
"Isn't it just dandy," Pansy sneered, "Another Potter two-shoes?"
"One was bad enough," her Slytherin friend Daphne growled.
Draco remembered the train incident, "Calm down," he soothed unfazed. "She's-."
"Draco," Zacharias hissed. "Don't tell you planning on being friends-
Draco rolled his grey eyes. "Of course not, I meet her on the train and let's just say - he was looking for the right word however, he scowled as he couldn't find it. He waved it off at their looks," we only have to show that we have defused (pacified, put away) our differences, right?"
Some like Zacharias Smith caught on and snickered gleefully while looking towards the Gryffindor table.
"what?" Dennis cried. "Your sister's been sitting at our table the whole time?!"
"Welcome to Gryffindor, mate," Nick said after Haku acknowledged them. "Does he talk English?"
Some girls were looking at Zabuza which Haku, Harry notices didn't seem to like if her changing expression was anything to go by, but it quickly went away when the one that was being ogled placed a hand around her shoulders pushing her a little closer.
"Hn." The same students from earlier looked at him.
"Hey is it possible to wear bandanas over the face?" A second year Gryffindor asked, many shrugged at his question as they didn't know the answer.
"You two are together?" A shy Gryffindor girl asked. Even Harry wanted to know the answer, but he figured that it couldn't-
"No- Haku glanced at Zabuza looking at him in the eye.
That's fine by me, Haku…Haku smiled magnificently missing Zabuza's last conveyance, 'you're more than just a tool, Haku much, much more. So if, you're ok with that-'he removed his hands from her shoulder and rested it around her waist, facing back forward.
That answered the unanswered question before Ginny could say, "no, they're only friends."
Harry sent Zabuza a look, but he inwardly frowned. How was that possible? It wasn't fair!
"No way," Ron muttered. "You two told us you were just friends!"
Haku tilted her head placing it on Zabuza's shoulders. She was so happy of course she had a crush on, Zabuza-san he was everything after all…"deception is the most to be overlooked," saying softly however, it was Hermione who narrowed her eyes a bit. That statement sounded true, so very true coming from Harry's sister it was almost as if she lived in deceit.
Perhaps it was that Hermione didn't like someone smarter than her in the group. Hermione shook her head such ludicrous thinking. 'What am I thinking; I should be happy that someone else understands.'
Dumbledore clapped loudly standing once more, "Alright I'm sure that we have gotten settled so, now then perfects please show the first years the way. Now…BED!" he bellowed.
"Come on Ron, we have to show the first years the way." Hermione stated standing.
"Oh yeah," Ron said perking up. "Come on you MIDGETS! Get Moving!"
"Ronald!"
Highly amusing those two were, Haku thought as she stood with an arm laced with Zabuza's own. Shy, scanty first years measly followed the two perfects.
Harry walked out followed by Haku and Zabuza. Adjustment was the key really next to skills and knowledge and in plus Harry needed watching. They reached the common room entrance, but then Harry face palmed. He didn't know the password to enter.
"No password, no entrance," the Fat Lady stated.
"Wait," Harry and the two ninjas craned their necks to see Neville Longbottom running towards them. "I know the password- he was panting slightly, before he caught his breath and stated rather proudly; "Mimbulus mimbletonia!"
The Fat Lady swung open and Neville followed by Harry, Haku and Zabuza climbed through the hole that led to the glistering scarlet / golden common room with its fire place flourishing in the distance –some students warming up just a few feet away from said fireplace; several cozy looking armchairs, shaky looking tables that looked like they would break.
The people who were chatting merrily stopped and stared at them –well precisely Harry and the other two beside him. Silence reigned however; Ginny and Hermione broke it by tugging on Haku's sleeve lightly.
"The girl's dorms are in the other direction from the boys'," Ginny said, Hermione nodding in agreement.
Haku tightens her grip a little unsure. It wasn't uncommon no, but Haku was so used to being in beside Zabuza rather it was in different bunks, or the same pallet – the notion sounded foreign. It wasn't just that it was foreign, but the nightmares would surely surface, haunting.
Damn. He suffered enough didn't he? Hell, Zabuza knew hadn't want to go through that again. Those nights were endless. Zabuza doesn't remember when it even began, but it all started with the days that he was tending to Haku's health.
A screamed pierced through the room and Zabuza's eyes snapped open and the next thing he knew..."Haku."
Haku whimpered with tears flowing soundlessly, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm….Don't-I'll be good. I'll be-
"HAKU!" Zabuza shook the kid violently.
"Zabuza-san," Haku clenched his hand tightly. Zabuza sighed in tiredness, "You're become a shinobi, Haku and these nightmares will seem like nothing more than faded dust."
Zabuza tilted his head slightly looking down at Haku who was a head shorter than him-self. So, their thoughts were nearly identical if not the same.
Haku let go reluctantly and followed Hermione and Ginny.
Harry entered the boys' dorm followed behind Zabuza who looked anything, but happy. Striding over towards the farthest bunk which was by the window, Zabuza ignored the awkward conversation between Harry and his friends. Well, that's till…
"Don't go putting my mother in to this," snapped Seamus.
"I go against anyone who calls me a liar," Harry retorted back just a furiously.
"Oi," Harry who had his wand snatched ready turned blazing green eyes over towards the indifferent looking new Gryffindor mate who only had on a pair of PJ pants. Seamus equally pissed and Dean stilled, whilst as Neville looked in between. "Calm yourself, brat, "Zabuza stated as his mask still remained on. "It wouldn't do any good to lose your temper."
"What do you know, huh?" Harry barked. "I'm no liar and Haku was never an imaginary friend that I was making up!"
"Tch… listen to yourself, brat. Are you really related to, Haku?" Zabuza sure as hell wasn't going to believe that if the kid can get so riled up easily. He wasn't a Yuki; as all clan's had these qualities and beliefs that made them what they were known for and the boy just wasn't showing it.
Harry was taken aback.
"Haku would never lose her temper over trivial matters." Which was true Haku wouldn't lose her temper as she resolved to staying calm throughout any given situation and, hell the only time she would was if it concerned him, or if she really wanted to end the subject, but it was mostly taken out and released during training anyways.
Harry then snorted, "Then explain what that was on the train? "
Neville, Seamus, and Dean looked confused. What was Harry talking about?
Zabuza unfazed answered as if he was stating the weather. "Simple," he began.
"What's going on?" Ron asked entering the dormitory.
Neville pulling up the courage explained. Ron frowned, "Well that's not Harry at all. Come on guys-
"I for one want to know if his sister isn't mad like him," Seamus said pointedly.
Ron practically looked livid and Zabuza restrained him-self out of pure instinct; "Take that back! OR would you like a detention? You know I'm a perfect," Ron shouted angrily as he pointed towards his badge.
Seamus contempt this for a few minutes, before deciding it wasn't worth it.
Finally the damn brats were finishing up with the pointless squabbling. Zabuza turned facing the window looking at nothing in particular as the one know as Neville said, "My gran and I believe in Harry too."
Zabuza closed his eyes briefly even though he knew he wasn't going to sleep.
Harry lay on his pillow arms behind his head. He wasn't a liar! Didn't they see that his sister actually existed? Didn't they know that Voldemort was only in hiding? Did Dumbledore have to suffer this all summer?
Eventually his miserable thoughts claimed him and when Ron finally went to sleep, Zabuza opened his eyes and trotted out the dorm not having truly unpacked anything to begin with.
He plopped on the sofa that occupied the common room and waited. Only a few minutes and the girl's dorm were silently being opened and he could hear Haku's soft footsteps. Dressed in a dark colored woman's yukata, Haku joined Zabuza who placed an arm around her frame.
A smile shown on Haku's lips and her eyes were slowly closing. "It was getting lonely, Za…Bu…Za…"
Zabuza grunted lowly in agreement making Haku a little bit more confortable. Yeah, it was and Zabuza wouldn't admit and if Haku was still awake he knew he would have said something like, "It's impossible to sleep without my weapon, Haku." Although that would have seemed rather conspicuous to anyone who took noticed Haku wouldn't take offensive to that statement.
His thoughts halted and soon sleep came to claim him as well.
It was early when Haku and Zabuza headed back to the dorm rooms to grab the uniforms right just as George and Fred walked out with matching grins. Returning, but ignoring the flyer the two waited.
If Seamus and Dean noticed the two launching on the sofa they didn't take heed and existed the room heading towards the Great Hall. Haku frowned, but said nothing. "Good morning," she said to Harry and his friend as they came down.
Harry blinked scratching his neck; "Morning."
"Yeah," Ron added awkwardly as well.
"Hey, guys. Morning, Haku, Zabuza," Hermione said rather joyously. Zabuza said nothing and Haku nodded in greeting as well.
"So what's the matter?" Hermione asked looking at Harry worriedly.
Haku stood fixing her uniform with Zabuza following suit; his Kubikiribōchō was still sealed just like majority –hidden in plane sight.
They started to head towards breakfast, but it was Hermione who groaned out stopping in front of a flyer. "The nerve!" She exclaimed her voice picking up a notch. Tearing the sign down a calendar revealing the next Hogsmeade weekend was in October showed clearly. Hermione turned to Ron, "We have to stop them."
"W- Why? " Ron asked alarmed.
"We're perfects," Hermione proclaimed as if that explained everything. "It's our job to stop these kinds of things!"
Ron and Harry said nothing.
"Relax," Haku said softly. "It is just a way to get money is it not? And money is something that is needed to gain for any purpose including for one's future. You shouldn't interfere with others."
Hermione heaved a breather clenching the paper in one hand. "This is a school," she said indignantly. "Doing something like this requires the headmaster's and teacher's permission! It is something not for a student to function –
"As I said," Haku said calmly. "Money is money no matter which way you receive it. Now," she said tilting her head some lacing her arm with Zabuza's. "Shouldn't we get going?"
They headed out the portrait hole and down the stairway. "Harry what's the matter?" Hermione asked again.
Ron supplied for his friend, "Seamus reckon he lying and has gone mad."
A frown marred Haku's features. "It is not wise Harry-kun," Hermione, Ron and Harry looked at her as she was composed as ever. "To fret over what you know to be true."
Hermione sighed that was identical to what Haku said last night. "Haku's right you know, so don't jump on us we are on your side, Harry."
"So, you believe me?" Harry asked looking at Haku with hidden hope. "When I say Voldemort is still alive? That he's come back from the dead. That I just... I wasn't imagining that I had a family."
Haku thought carefully, before speaking evenly. "Once one is dead they remain so unless one has found the gateway to immortality (Oroichimaru just look at him, genetic ability such as the Uzumaki clan's longevity) and, or uses a forbidden jutsu –At their looks Haku corrected, "Spell that enables them to never truly die, or are resurrected with consequences." The last part was referring to a jutsu known as pure resurrection where one or many were brought back to life, but were nothing, but mindless zombies.
Hermione narrowed her eyes the seriousness of those words piped up suspicion of them even more. Ron looked awe and Harry was shocked.
"How do you know so much?" Hermione asked skeptically.
Haku answered without faulting. "Traveling the world you tend to pick up a lot of things and I didn't know I had family until recently."
Hermione couldn't refute to that because she had no counter attack, or smart remark to say, so she left it alone. Ron still looking awed struck followed the unresponsive Hermione and Harry stayed a minute longer.
"We believe you," Haku said crushing his doubts and Harry followed his friends.
Zabuza snorted, "It's impossible not to when you work for the guy." Haku chortled slightly. Well, yes, but there was always others ways to believing it was true.
They reached the marble just as Harry said rather sarcastically, "Yeah friends with the lot of them." They followed Harry and the Ravenclaws who were up ahead of them into the Great Hall. Sitting at the Gryffindor table Hermione sighed thoughtfully while looking at the staff table, "It's probably just so attention won't seek out."
"For what?" Both Harry and Ron asked.
"For Hagrid you know…" Hermione finished lamely.
Ron snorted loudly. "How can we not notice? It's in plain sight!"
A girl with long braided hair marched up to them. "Hi, Harry," she said briskly.
"Mm…. Hi, Angelina. Good summer?"
"Yes, you?" She asked in the same clipped tone as when she greeted him. "Listen I've been made Quidditch captain."
"Nice," said Harry grinning at the prospect of Quidditch.
"Yeah. Well, we need a new keeper now that Oliver's gone. Tryouts are at five Friday. Mandatory attendance goes for all members, alright? "She left to join her friends as bristly as she came.
"What exactly is this Quidditch?" Haku asked taking the seat right next to Zabuza who was sitting right next to Harry.
Ron mouth hung open. "You don't know what Quidditch is?"
Snape forgotten to mention the sport it seemed.
"It's only the hottest sport in the wizarding world!" Ron exclaimed. Harry nodded grinning alongside the freckled teen across from him.
A whoosh and several hoots and at least a hundred or so owls were flying in the halls.
"I'm not reading rubbish," Harry said irritably as a few owls dropped the newspaper in front of them.
"It's always good to know the enemy's movements," Hermione said darkly picking up a newspaper and leaving the hall.
Haku stated levelly causing Harry and Ron to pause in their eating, "That may be true, but if this is Voldemort than his movements won't be in side of a news article." Yes, if he was buying his time he wouldn't let the Wizarding community know of anything suspicious.
Harry realized that that was true. Voldemort was laying low away from the press, away from Dumbledore buying his time. Not-
"Nothing," Hermione said plopping back down. The head of houses, McGonagall, Snape, Sprout, and Flitwick began walking around handing out schedules.
Ron groaned. "Look at this... It's maddening. History Magic, Double potions, Divination, and double Defense against the Dark arts! I hope Fred and George hurry with those Skiving-
"Do our ears deceive us, George?" Fred asked sitting near Harry's left side; George looking amused sat directly next to his twin. "I don't think so."
Konoha…
Sasuke swung a left kick hitting the air. Why couldn't they understand, huh? He fucking screwed up! Tsunade's beating didn't help any in fact it just made him angrier.
Caw. Caw. Caw.
Caw. Caw. Caw. Caw.
Sasuke paid no mind to the crows that flooded around him.
Caw. Caw. Caw. Caw.
Sasuke twisted and aimed another kick towards the air.
Caw. Caw.
Flap of wings and the black bird landed on his outstretched foot.
Caw. Its beak opened slowly and Sasuke eyes met the dark abyss of the Crow's own. C…a…w… C
A-W.
Sasuke didn't blink. There was something wrong here.
More crows have landed several actually.
Caw. Caw. Caw. Caw.
Their heads tilted slightly mockingly, or was it something else?
Why was he playing with a bunch of birds? He didn't have time for this! He needed to concentrate on the now and plan-
You know some say there's no such thing as the supernatural. Some say it's nothing more than truths told backwards. Some say it doesn't exist at all, some say that superstition is nothing more than everyday occurrences.
Some would claim that Crows are supernatural beings that come to claim one just before death however... Caw.
The one that had Sasuke's attention opened its beak and Sasuke was expecting a caw, but…
"Foolish, otōto," Sasuke's eyes widen as the crows flew back. Sasuke without hesitation took of after them his eyes ablaze.
Hogwarts…
"You think this year will be as difficult as Fred and George say?" Harry asked skeptically.
"Definitely," Ron said nodding as though he knew that for a long time. "It's the O.W.L.s year; the exams determine what kind of jobs that you can qualify for. It helps with preparing for what type of N.E.W.T.s that you want to take next year."
"What do you two want to do after Hogwarts?" Harry asked his two friends as they exited the Great Hall followed by Haku and Zabuza who were quietly listening.
"Well, not really... "Ron said sheepishly.
"Well," Hermione stated already having her future set. "I think for now it be something worthwhile. What about you, Haku?" She asked turning towards Haku quickly.
Haku tilted her head, but Zabuza answered rather monotonously. "Too finish our jobs back in Japan." The golden Trio didn't get an elaboration.
Binns was droning. Horribly so that, Zabuza wished that he didn't have to act as a fifteen year old. Kami the damn kage's lectures were better than this! Haku who sat next to Zabuza, directly by his side took out a scroll.
Zabuza leaned in. It was something to do couldn't argue with that. "What's that?" Harry asked the two obvious ninjas.
Zabuza snorted, "What does it look like? It's a scroll."
Ron scrunched up his eyes looking at the complicated characters, "That seems like nothing, but cool drawings to me. Is that supposed to be readable?"
"This drawing," Zabuza growled slightly and Ron and Harry flinched slightly. "Is part of our alphabet and yes, it is readable everyone learns the complex system one way or another..."
Hermione narrowed her eyes not only at her two friends, but at Haku and Zabuza. Why were they reading a scroll that…?
Finally Binn's class was over and they headed out towards the courtyards. It was drizzling and many looked blurry however, Haku and Zabuza paid no mind and headed towards the farthest back where Harry, Ron, and Hermione consequently sat.
"Hello, Harry!" Harry craned his head and saw Cho Chang.
"Hi," he said grinning just glad that this time he wasn't covered in Stink-sap.
"You got that stuff off then?' She asked sincerely.
"Yeah, "Harry replied. "So did you have a good summer" Immediately after those words left his mouth he wanted to kick himself. How insensitive. Of course she didn't it was probably just as bad as his on.
"Ah, yeah it was alright."
Ron demanded rather rudely, Harry thought and wished then and there that the floors would swallow him whole.
"Weasley, that was tactless, "Haku commented with a frown.
Hermione frown as well on two accounts really: One Haku never once addressed as friends, but rather acquaintances and two she agreed with Haku; "Haku's right Ron! How could you? Couldn't you let Harry talk with her without butting in about Quidditch?!"
Harry paid no mind to his friends bickering.
They entered the dungeons and sat waiting for Snape to come. Fortunately, the students didn't have to wait long. "Settle down," Snape drawled coldly as he waltzes into the classroom, closing the doors behind him.
Snape gave his customary intro speech like Binn's did before him as many other teachers' would follow however, Haku that Harry and Snape seem to have a mutual dislike. "Today," Snape began moving on from his touching moment that went with the last of his previous speech. "We will be working on an ordinary potion: The Draught of Peace. It is cure to calm anxiety and sooth agitation. Now be warned-Snape swept around looking at the Gryffindor's and Slytherin's alike. "Pay attention to what you are doing, or you will wind up placing the drinker into an irreversible sleep." He took out his wand twirled once and the on the board appeared the instructions. He then twirled his wand again opening the cupboard where the ingredients lay.
While Zabuza handled the cauldron's fire, handling Haku the precise cuts of ingredients; Haku stirred the potion both clockwise and counterclockwise directions.
"A light silver vapor should be flowing from your cauldrons," Snape called tersely with only ten minutes left. He swept around the room and scowled rather nasty only Granger and the two shinobi received perfect cauldrons.
"Mr. Potter, What is this?" He sneered stopping in- between Harry's and Ron's cauldrons.
Harry tensed, "The Draught of peace, sir."
Draco and his fellow Slytherin's looked their way gleefully.
"Mr. Potter," Snape called softly. "Perhaps you do well with being partners with your sister next time, Hm?" However, he gave no time for Harry to answer to that. "Tell me, Mr. Potter what does the third instruction acclaim?"
Harry read the instruction feeling stupid for leaping to the fourth instruction without-
"As much," Snape drawled with a sneer. "As this potion is utterly worthless to me, I will be lenient this once, Mr. Potter."
Harry was shocked just as many other students. Since when is Snape nice to him?
"For at least attempting to do the work partial credit will be given – Evaneso," and the cauldrons contents vanished. "Weasley, Longbottom," Snape turned on them getting rid of their cauldrons contents as well. "I suggest you two find a tutor."
Before the bell ranged students flagged their potions and Snape gave them homework. A 12 inch long essay on Moonstones and the relative properties it had in making potions; "Dismissed."
"That was rather unfair," Hermione said scantily. "He could have been less harsh on you both."
That was fair," Haku stated. The trio looked at her as if she grown a second head or three.
"Who side are you on, mate?!" Ron bellowed angrily.
"I am taking no side," Haku chided gently as if she was explaining something difficult. "The way it works is that although rules are meant to be broken there are just some that you cannot break. For as, if you were making a salve-
Hermione interjected; "A healing ointment that usually is used for injuries."
Haku nodded in confirmation. "Yes, and like that and many others following the instructions is highly advisable."
"Yeah, but, "Hermione stated disappointedly. "I thought he would at least somber a little. You know, "she looked around the empty tables, "Since he's in the order and all."
"Well, "Ron said hotly. "You can't change an animal's stripes. I still think Dumbledore has lost his marbles. How do we know he's not still working for, You-Know-Who?"
"We don't need proof of that, Ronald! Dumbledore-
"Shut up the both of you," Harry said standing up abandoning his pie. "you're driving me mad with your silly little arguments." He marched out the great Hall picking up his bag roughly.
Haku turned to Zabuza looking worried. "Damn it no, we should leave the brat to himself."
Zabuza twitched and growled a forceful no, but Haku gave him the look that should be banned from society; the subtle puppy-eyes.
"Tch," Zabuza scowled getting up and walking away. Haku smiled saying a quick goodbye before following the slightly confused, shocked Gryffindor's behind in the Great Hall.
Zabuza cursed colorfully as they followed Harry's magic-chakra. They found him sitting under a trapdoor.
"Harry-kun."
Konoha…
Sasuke finally stopped after several hours of following the crows. Blinking, where was- The Uchiha grounds, but this place was the Nakamada shrine. Why he was led here beside, the fact he was following crows that possibly belonged to his brother. He didn't really know. All, he knew was that it was refreshing in a way he couldn't point at the moment.
His obsidian eyes focused on the crows that suddenly flopped outstretched as if forming a human shape. The crows cawed once, twice before they dissolved into feathers of pure black.
Sasuke's eyes widen. "I...Ta...Chi..."
...Foolish, Otōto…Sasuke-kun."
N'cut! I hope you guys don't mind the late up-dates, or at least I think my up-dates are late. Anyways, this way the chapters are a little longer and have more stuff happening in them. Well, next chapter…I don't know what will happen-XD! Oh, Zabuza and Haku are finally it –but, how long will it last? Will Sasuke finally show up at Hogwarts, or will he end up in more trouble? Will, I ever put in the mission? Previous questions asked will be answered as the story goes on!
Well, until next time…
I'm out!
