The windows high on the walls of the dining hall were covered in a thin layer of frost and snow on the ledges to add to the beauty of the winter mouths. The ceiling was full of floating candles that many of the students had loved and remembered from their first years at the school. The students were all seated at the tables or standing around in the hall waiting for dinner to begin so they may enjoy their feast before some left for winter break to spend Christmas with their families. Each house was usually seated or near their own table but as always the Gryffindor house was not one to keep within their boundaries and were currently teasing and messing with those of the Slytherin house. The other two houses had just stayed back and laughed at the fights breaking out between the two houses in hopes that it would spread to their houses. The main fighters were the Marauders a Gryffindor gang made up of Sirus Black, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, and their leader James Potter. They were not the brightest of the house, but the bravest as their leader was the Seeker for the Gryffindor Quidditch team. They were every teacher's worst nightmare and pain in the neck to everyone. Opposing them was Slytherin's top student of his year, Severus Snape who was trying to stand up to his bullies. By his side were Lucius Malfoy and his well-known girlfriend Narcissa Black. Bellatrix Black also stood by them but only to keep her cousin at bay.
But away from the fight, stood a very shy and nervous Shaman with a letter clutched in her small hands. Her long blue hair was held back in a low pony-tail with two long bangs framing the side of her heart shaped face. Her skin was a pale porcelain skin with large lavender eyes that shown with the innocents and naivety. Around her neck was a black lace necklace with a clear pendant jewel hanging from it. Her plump lips were graced with a light smile and her cheeks were dusted with a pink blush. She wore Gryffindor robes with her skirt fluttering about her knees with her black loafers shining in the light. Her hands were covered with white fingerless gloves that had a clear jewel placed on the glove on the back of her hand. She took in a deep breath and tucked the envelope away in her cloak and walked into the dining hall. She waved to the others of her house and took a seat beside Lily Evans her good friend and Molly Prewett.
"Hey Hinako," Lily smiled at the blue haired girl as she sat down and put down her book. "Have you taken your Divination exam since I am freaking out about it," Hinako giggled as the brown haired girl almost looked about ready to pull out her hair and made a face of panic. Hinako let her eyes wonder over to the tall figure that was James Potter, a blush rose to her cheeks as she saw his smirk, but Lily caught it. "Oh that's gross Hinako," Lily made a face as Hinako blushed red for being caught; "you can do so much better than that."
"Not to mention that he might have failed every exam he took," Molly piped in as she flicked her wan around to make the books move about the table. "I don't doubt that'll he have to take summer classes, again." She shook her head of red hair and wagged her finger at her.
Hinako pouted, "Oh come on now," her voice was light and bell like that she field odd talking to her two friends that had an English accent while she spoke in her own odd accent from being born in Japan and from a high status clan. "And it is not like I have a chance," she poked her forefingers together and looked down at her lap "he's too busy fawning over you Lily-chan."
Lily waved it off, "Please, he'll get over me when he reads that letter you wrote him," the two other girls giggled as Hinako's face went a bright red and steamed look to be coming out of her ears. Lily pushed her off the bench and pointed to the group of Marauders, "You go and give him that letter before you regret it!" Hinako swallowed the lump in her throat and slowly made her way to the fighting group. Oh how she wanted to turn around and run away from them and hide away with Moaning Myrtle in the girl's bathroom. It was too late though she could hear their taunts and arguments so clearly that it felt like she was part of it. Hinako felt her heart beat faster in her rib cage that she was sure that it would explode. Her hands were shaky as they were stiffly held to the sides of her and she tried her best to stop her shaking.
"Come on Severus," James smirked as he pushed the male back into the group of Slytherin students, "you wanna fight then let us fight." James held up his wand and pointed it right in the dark haired wizards face.
"I don't think he can do it Prongs," Sirus laughed at Severus, "all brains but no bronze!" They all laughed as Severus just glared at them with a blush stained on his cheeks from embarrassment.
"Enough of this Potter," they looked over to see the brown haired twins both Shamans in the Slytherin house. The gloves on their hands were black with white jewel on the gloves. They were practically identical from their white colored eyes that had no pupils and long brown hair and fair skin. Hiashi Hyuga was biologically the eldest and colder of the two with his long hair left undone while his brother Hizashi had his hair held back by the ends with a small hair tie and bandages around his forehead. Hiashi was in proper dress with his cloak on but Hizashi left his cloak in his dormitory and just had one hand shoved in his pocket as he was the more laid back of the two. Hiashi was the one speaking with a glare on his face, "You have been a pain in our side for long enough, and I will tolerate you and your foolish friend's idiocy." Hiashi held up his wand while his other hand sparked with a blue energy; James took a step back but did not drop his wand. Hiashi smirked, "Let us see if your bravery is strong enough to make up for your lack of brains."
"St-stop," Hinako stood between the two with the envelope in her hands. She blushed as they all looked to her; she shyly tucked one of her bangs behind her ears and took a shaky breath before speaking again, "P-Professor Dumbledore would not like to see this k-kind of fighting…y-you'll get in trouble a-and lose us points." Hinako just looked down at her feet and gripped her envelope so tight that she was sure that she would rip it any second.
Lucius just scoffed, "Now the girls are here to stand up for you Potter?" The Slytherin group snickered and smirked at the seething Potter. "And the weakest one of them all," Hinako gasped as the blond haired man grabbed the envelope for her hands. Hinako reached for it but he held it high above his head so that she could not reach. "What is it Hiroshi? Why do you want the letter so badly?" He looked to the envelope as she was still trying to grab for it, "Oh may~" he said in his devilish voice with a smirk on his face, "it seems to be a love letter…directed to a 'James Potter.'" Hinako felt her face heat up a dark red as she looked to see that James looked at her oddly and then back at the letter. "Let's give it a read, shall we?" Lucius threw the letter in the air and with a flick of his wand he zapped the letter. Hinako watched in horror as the letter opened up like a mouth and began to speak of what she had written.
'Dear James Potter, how long I have waited to say what I truly feel about you, but I may only do it through this letter. I think I have fallen for you James…' Hinako began to tear up as the whole mess hall seemed to be listening to her letter, and they all seem to be laughing at her misfortune. She wipped the tears from her eyes, but they would not stop. She quickly turned away and hid her face from them all as she ran out of the large room and to anywhere she could be alone. Lily watched as she ran out and sent James a glare for not doing anything. The Marauder's began to tease James about it, but he did not really listen. Before the letter could go on a blast of fire hit it and the blackened ashes of the letter floated to the ground.
"You are no fun Sora," Narcissa said with a smirk as she looked back to the black haired Shaman. The Slytherin student just scoffed as he glared with his dark purple eyes. He wore black gloves with a dark red jewel on it. He was properly dressed and even his wand was placed perfectly on his belt. Sora Kouno got to his feet and with hands shoved in his pockets he walked out of the mess hall. "What a weirdo, huh Lucius?" She said as she hugged his arm and placed her head on his shoulder. The male just nodded.

Hinako pulled her cloak tighter around herself as she walked through the halls that were practically outside since the large windows did not have glass on them and led to an outside area. She winced as her tears began to freeze to her face. Her cheeks were bright red and her eyes were just as red and puffy from her crying. She slowly began to realize that she was close to Dumbledore's office and thought that she could up there and wait out until the school year was over. There was no one she would face anyone let alone students from her own house. Hinako just went up to the large statue that led to the old man's office and blushed as the paintings tried to comfort her; she merely told them that she wasn't feeling well.
"Hiroshi," Hinako turned around and watched as the Slytherin bad-boy walked up to her. Hinako had heard stories of Sora, that he was able to speak to serpents and that he was passing all his classes with flying colors. He walked up to her and she felt the need to cower back from him. "I hope that you have learned a lesson from your mistake." Hinako nodded and she looked down at her feet. She could not meet his cold eyes, it was looking into the deep darkness of night; she had hoped that he would just leave her, but it seemed that he had much more to say. "What a fool you are for falling for the moron of Gryffindor."
"J-James-k-kun is no m-moron," she said back much softer than she had intended to. Hinako jumped as she met the glare of Sora and shrunk away from him. "S-sorry," she said lightly as she looked down at her feet once more. He opened his mouth to say something but she watched as he closed it and turned away.
"Don't talk back to me…it's…weird…" he said lightly and walked off and Hinako was left there to wonder. Weird…she had never thought that that word would be in his vernacular and him admitting that something was weird was just….well weird. Hinako could not describe it any better than that and she was the top writer in her class. Maybe it was just her. That was indeed the longest time she had ever even stood beside the male. Hinako just shook her head of the thoughts and just knocked so that Dumbledore would let her in sooner. A large opening appeared in the wall and Hinako happily walked up the steps up to the man's office.
"Mrs. Hiroshi," Dumbledore spoke lightly as he stood on a balcony that overlooked his office. She smiled up at him with a blush staining her cheeks, "What brings you here? Dinner is about to begin."
"O-Oh," she pulled at the hem of her skirt, "I-I'm not very hungry is a-all." She walked over to where the phoenix sat and lightly petted his head; the bird was so kind to her and generally enjoyed her presence. "I-I was hoping th-that you m-may have more o-on Shamans?"
"Ah…" he said lightly with his frail voice. "I might have something," he pulled out his wand and gave it a light flick towards a bookshelf on the opposite wall. Hinako held out her hands as a book gently floated down to her. "I was able to dig up something," he smiled as she took a seat on the two steps that led to a slightly upper level to the room. "I hope that with you four here I would be able to write up more about the Shaman kind," Dumbledore walked down to his desk and took a seat.
Hinako looked to him with a bright smile, "Oh professor," she looked up to the ceiling, "y-you flatter u-us so." Hinako held the book close to her chest and walked over to the cauldron that contained all the memories of her headmaster. "I-If y-you ever need my help, pl-please ask." She watched as the memories floated on without much of a care in the world, "I-Is it wrong t-to love s-someone that loves another?" She glanced over to Dumbledore as he looked to be thinking the question over.
"I don't know Mrs. Hiroshi," he said as he sat back, "But what I do know is that love is a very powerful thing," Dumbledore fixed his glasses, "why do you ask?"
"W-well," she looked to her feet, "I-I thought it would b-be better to c-confess to….to him, b-but it merely just exploded in my face," she cursed herself as she felt her eyes sting with tears and she quickly began to try and wipe them away. "P-Professor," she turned to him and looked at him with big and watery eyes, "will a h-heart ever heal?" Hinako let the tears flow down her cheeks this time and her breathing became shallow and heavy gasps for air. The elder man was able to move quick and walked over to her. She desperately clutched to him and sobbed.
"Do not cry," he soothed her as he stroked her hair, "it will take time Hinako," he said softly as she began to calm down, "and as odd as it may seem, but it may heal from a love from another. From another that you may have never known before."
"H-How will I know…" she said as she still held onto him. Her breathing returned to normal and she was able to speak a bit more clearly.
"Your heart will give you a light push in the right direction," he said with a smile as she let go and began to wipe her eyes once more. "Now," he turned her around, "You don't want to be cooped up in here. You get back to your commons room and bring back the book once you are finished."
"Th-thank you Professor," she smiled back at him before she descended the stairs and was soon out of site. Hinako felt a bit better about everything, sure things with James and the others would never be the same but that was the thing that she could deal with for the moment being. Hinako only had a two more years at Hogwarts and then she would be out on her own and be able to study to become a teacher. She'd surely come back to Hogwarts in hopes to get a job at the school, she loved it so and loved to teach. She slowly made her way up the steps and waited as they shifted so that she would be able to reach her room.
"Password?"
Hinako smiled to the fat lady and spoke, "Caput Draconis," the woman in the painting smiled and she was let into the Gryffindor commons room. Hinako closed the door behind her and quickly went to her room. She walked down to her bed at the end of the room and smiled as the slim black cat was curled up on her bed. The cat purred upon seeing her and Hinako just lied on the bed and let the cat walk over to her and rub against her body. "Did you miss me Miki," she asked as the cat looked to her with bright green eyes and meowed to be petted. Hinako just smiled and scratched under cat's chin and then on her head. "Well I did it Miki," she lifted up the cat and let her stand on her belly, "I tried to give him the letter." Miki lied down on her owners belly and just looked to her like she was listening, "and then Malfoy-dono got it and the whole school got to read it." Her cheeks burned red with just the thought, "I hope the professor was right…I don't want to have to wait."
~A Few Years Later~
Hinako had grown so much from her school days at Hogwarts, both physically and mentally. She wore a dark purple turtle neck that went down to under her bottom with tight black pants to match. She had braided her hair back so that it would not get in her way. A black cloak was sitting lightly on her shoulders and fell back to reveal her clothing since she was sitting back in a chair. Her white gloves were still as white since the day she bought them and her wand was placed on a belt that hung crookedly on her hips with a few other scrolls that were kept also on the belt. Hinako placed her hands on her lap and watched as the others members were speaking to one another. She had become part of 'The Order of the Phoenix' that was led by Dumbledore himself. She smiled as she watched Sirus Black curl up on the carpet like some dog since he no longer wanted to argue with James on the matter at hand.
The Dark Lord has arisen with power, and they all had feared he was much too powerful for the ministry to take on alone. Hinako had been informed of the group when she had stopped by to see Lily and James, who had married. Hinako was not one to hold a grudge, but jealousy burned deep in the pit of her stomach when she had first seen the couple as happy as they stood at the altar. She quickly got over her petty thoughts and began to focus on what was important…stopping the Dark Lord. She had come to fear the worst, that he-who-shall-not-be-named had taken on the Shamans since Hinako had lost contact with the Hyuga family. The Kouno family had no contact with the rest of the world, so Hinako could only hope that Sora was not hurt. Miki jumped up onto her owners lap and made herself comfortable; Hinako lightly petted her frail family pet that had been through so much with her. She watched as the group continued to discuss series matters as she slowly spun the clear jewel of her necklace between her fingers.
"I am not going to run from this!" James stood and glared at Author Weasley, "Standing together will make us stronger!"
"There is an army of Death Eaters waiting for us to act first," Author said sternly, "you are too much of a Gryffindor James, please just think this through."
"M-Maybe he is right," Peter said lightly while he stood against the wall, "not many stood by the D-Dark Lord before…" he trailed off, "it would be best to act before h-he can catch us."
"Wrong worm-tail," Lupin ran his hand through his hair, "We will not just approach him like this is a walk in the park. The ministry has been snooping around," he informed the group and Miki jumped down and wondered off up the stairs to who-knows-where. Lupin watched the cat for the moment, but then got back on topic, "no need to raise suspicions with us going around and trying to recruit people. With more time, they will believe us and help."
"I-It will be t-too late," Hinako finally spoke and then stood. She pulled the cloak close so that it hid her body. "Th-The ministry does not want witches and wizards of human birth to worry, they will never see e-eye to eye with us." She smiled to the group, "I-I will go out on a hunt, a-anything that will be us use to you will be sent back w-with my Patronuse." She walked to the door and slipped on her black gym shoes, "K-Keep an eye on Molly-chan if you would," she smiled to Author, "sh-she must b-be tired."
"Don't do this Hinako," Lily stood. Hinako looked back at her, "Going out there is suicide,"
"Rather one die then thousands," Hinako said with all seriousness. She quickly fixed her mood, "b-but do not fret L-Lily-chan," she looked into her eyes, "no harm will c-come to me."
"Promise," Lily asked holding out her pinky.
"Promise," Hinako hooked her own and then went off out the door into the darkness of night. She didn't look back at the house as she mounted her broom and took to the sky. With a wave of her hand she cloaked her body to look like a large bird to the humans below. She smiled as she passed through a cloud; giggling as she got a bit wet from the water. Hinako loved flying she thought it was the best thing that anyone could ever enjoy. Her bangs lightly blew back in the cool wind that bit at her skin, but she didn't have a care in the world. Hinako softly began to descend and soon she landed before the forest, the one that she had been told many times as a student to not enter. She took a deep breath as she waved her broom off and it took off into the night sky once more. Hinako walked into the forest with strong strides as she followed the path that had been made by so many other students before. Her steps were very light as she was afraid that there indeed was something in there that was still out to get her; she had heard so many times before that unicorns had walked the land but were being hunted by some beast. Even as a student Gryffindor she was never brave enough to come out with Rubeus Hagrid and the others to see what was in the forest. She kind of wished that this wasn't her first time alone in the forest on a very important mission like this. Hinako pulled the hood of her cloak over her head and walked the forest like some dark figure.
'Okay Hinako,' she thought to herself as she held herself in hopes that she wasn't shaking under her cloak. Her eyes scanned over the darkness that engulfed the forest and made it scary then she would have liked. 'I'll you have to do is make sure that no one is meeting in the Dark Forest and planning the fall of the Ministry. Easy-peasy.' Hinako almost wanted to sweat drop at the foolishness in her own words; she surely was in much more danger and she was sure that this was not as simple as she wanted it to be. She stopped as she heard steps in the forest and looked back to see if anyone was behind her. Her eyes focused on the figure walking towards her in the distance and she nearly freaked and took to hiding behind the tree like some child. Her heart was beating against her ribcage and she slowly glanced back to see that the figure was tall with a built frame; most likely a male from the width of his shoulders. Hinako pulled out her wand and gripped it tightly in her fist. She gulped lightly and tried to think of who this man was. Most obviously, he was someone with bad intentions. The next obvious thing she could think of was that it was a man with bad intentions. Other than that she was stumped. The thought that he was a Death Eater came to mind, but she could not be too sure on that one.
The male stopped walking and looked around just to be sure he was not followed. He pulled out his wound and with a light flick and tap on the tree and a door opened up for him. He entered and once he closed the door it was hidden again. Hinako stepped out from behind the tree and walked over to the spot where the man once stood. She held out her gloved hands and ran them over the area where she thought the door had appeared. She watched the white jewels on her perfect white gloves and once they began to glow she let a smile slip onto her plump lips. She took out her wand and pointed it at the open area "Finite Incantatum," she whispered with a flick of the wand and the door was opened up to her. Hinako readied for some kind of trap, but she had walked through the door with ease and this time, the door was still seen to the human eye. "This can't be good," she said lightly as she looked out into the swampy region she had been taken too and spotted the torch light path going between the trees on a narrow dirt path. She took in a deep breath and walked on as she placed her wand back on the spot on her belt. Her steps were soft and quick as she darted from tree to tree and watched from a safe distance as the male figure walked calmly. She waited until the male was out of site and then hid behind a rather large willow tree. "Expecto Patronum," she said with a wave of her hand and out a rabbit ran about made of blew energy, "Send the message, 'Hidden door in Dark Forest; may be for the use of Death Eaters." The Rabbit nodded and started running in some direction and then disappeared in the wind. She smiled, knowing that her message would soon make it, or so she hoped that it would. "Where is he going?" Hinako whispered to herself and looked to see if she was still able to follow him. She pushed away any negative thoughts and continued to follow the path with hopes of finding the male again.
Hinako was unable to find the male, but he had found her. He almost thought it idiotic that someone would send a patronum when he wasn't that far away. He waited until she had taken the path again and snuck up behind her. He watched as a small body frame walked with caution down the path and he almost couldn't help but stare for a moment as he was able to see the light sashay of her hips through the cloak. He then followed behind her and long before she could turn around he wrapped one arm aright under her bust and pressed the tip of his wand to the side of her head, "Scream and that will surely cause your death," he spoke gruffly in his deep baritone voice with no mercy for this woman. He's breathing was calm and low but he caught the sweet scent of vanilla and felt the need to shiver at it; it was so familiar to him. She tried to pull out his grip but it was useless when he pressed the wand harder into her head. "Say your prayers woman, for you will not be living here."
"It does not matter," she spoke in a light bell like voice, "I have completed what needed to be done." She felt the man go stiff behind her, but his grip seemed to be tighter than ever. Without word he pushed her along the path, but when the path split, he took the path that was not lit. Hinako watched as she was almost approaching a cabin that was well hidden in the foliage with a light in the window. "Why not just kill me now?"
"Do not speak to me," he was angry, cruel, and Hinako held back the need to coward from the voice. She had not done anything to make him mad; he had caught her and told her she was too die, nothing more could be done. He opened the cabin door and pushed her in while locking the door behind him. Hinako stood in a fighting position and had her wand pointed at him. He scoffed at her and with a flick of his hand her wand was knocked out of her hands. Hinako's eyes widened at the sight of black gloves, with the black jewel shining in the soft candle light. Sora Kouno removed his hood and showed that he had grown out his hair so that it was pulled back into a tight ponytail; he almost looked like that of a samurai if Hinako wasn't worrying about her life at the moment. He let his eyes scan over the cloaked body until dark purple eyes landed upon her lavender ones. "Hinako Hiroshi, I should have known only a fool like you would come out here alone."
"I should have guessed you would be up to no good Kouno." Her eyes hardened a bit as she held her hands before her in a fighting position. "I must ask, have you succumbed to working under the Dark Lord as well, like all the others of the Slytherin house?"
"Aren't you just smart," he mocked her with a frown. "I have been waiting for you to mess up Hiroshi," Sora glared at her and pointed his wand at her, "You are to take this horrible curse or hex off of me." Hinako was suddenly confused at the statement but her confused face only made him angrier. "Do not make your innocent face and pretend that you are not aware of this! Take off this hex before I have to use force!"
"I do have no idea what you are talking about," Hinako defended and then jumped back as he got very close to her.
"I am not going to play this game Hinako," Sora said in a deep growl, "I have been hexed and you are behind it. You have plagued my thoughts for the last few months; that damned voice, your innocent eyes, and your image has been imprinted in my mind. Now take off the hex."
"I-I have not hexed you," she said getting offended and with her cheeks burning a pink color.
"And that cute blush- oh dear Kami I did not meant to say cute!" Sora quickly turned away and looked to be ready to pull out his dark hair. Hinako took this as her chance and pointed her hand to the door.
"Alohomora," she said and made a dash to the opened door. Sora reacted much faster than she would have thought. He placed a body-bind hex on her and caught her before she hit the floor.
"Moron," he muttered as he closed and locked the door again and placed her upon the small bed that was in the room. She tried to break the hex but it was indeed hopeless. Hinako watched as she heard him pull up a chair to the bed side and then sat down. "Tell me the spell at least, and then I can find my own counter spell."
"I'll say it again Kouno," she said, "I placed no hex, spell, curse, or charm on you. If I have you probably would have found out and broken it." Hinako wasn't going to even pretend like she could have been able to place a spell on someone like him.
"Then why is this happening to me Hinako," he said as he moved to his knees and starred at her as she was forced to stare at the ceiling. "Nothing can stop my mind from going back to you, ever since I saw you trying to blend in with the muggles at that homely school for the young. Not even the power of the Dark Lord can get me away from you; how many missions you have caused me to prolong and almost fail. You must know what this is Hinako; I can see it is the same thing that had plagued you all those years back at the School." Hinako felt her cheeks heat up but she was suddenly getting colder. She felt a large and rough hand took hold of hers with his thumb running of her knuckles. "Please help me."
"K-Kouno….I-I think something much st-stronger has b-been placed on you." Hinako cursed as her stuttering was suddenly back.
"Tell me Hinako," he said quickly. She could tell he was so clueless and thought that the moment she spoke he would explode.
"I-it sounds like…" she swallowed loudly, "like y-you have fallen in love."
"In…love…?" He suddenly got very quiet and Hinako felt his grip on her hand tighten to the point where it was painful. She struggled out a cry of pain but she feared he would strike her if she did. "Preposterous!" Sora stood up and looked down at her with a glare, "if that was the case that would mean I love you-" it became eerily silent as he cut himself off. "You…I must love you any of this to make sense. Without the place of a curse or spell; this is my very own curse on myself." Sora looked down at her and with a wave of his hand Hinako quickly sat up; she moved to the edge of the bed and crawled off, but Sora watched her like a hawk. "What do I do know?"
Hinako looked about the room, "H-How am I to know? I-it's your feelings."
"What did you do when you were 'in love'?"
Hinako blushed again, "Well…I told him how I felt, though as you can r-recall it didn't turn out as planned."
"Why was I so made when you did that," Sora asked walking so that he stood before her, "hearing you confess to him angered me. How could a pure blood like you love someone like him?" Hinako backed away but her back hit the wall and Sora pinned her back against the wall with both hands on either side of her body. "He was a failure and a sorry excuse for a wizard. Anyone was better than him." Hinako was forced to stare into his eyes, but she was surprised to see that he looked confused. "If you had been in Slytherin house this all would have been different."
"And why would you think that?"
"Simple…" he suddenly looked stumped, "well….you…you and I….we…I mean you would have…" Hinako got red in the face as Sora's cheeks began to burn pink and he avoided eye contact. "All Shamans are of Slytherin house; how you are so different I will never know." Sora looked to her and spoke in such a light and sweet voice. "If I do love you, than I want you to know it Hinako Hiroshi. For this is my confession: I love you deeply." Hinako felt her knees go weak and she began to slip down the wall. Sora quickly encircled his arms around her and kept her standing. "Well I didn't expect you to faint at the confession, I thought we had it made it clear beforehand that it was you that I loved."
Then there came hard knocking on the door, "Sora! Sora! Open this damn door!" Hizashi yelled as he kept pounding on the door. "We are meeting right now and the Dark Lord tires of your lateness."
"Step aside," another voice said. "Alohomora" Hiashi said and the door was blasted open and the twins both watched in shock as Sora held the blue haired woman bridal style. "Dear Kami what have you done?"
"I have fallen in love," Sora said calmly as he placed Hinako on the bed and then pick up her wand. "I'll be there in a moment."
"She can't be here Sora," Hiashi warned with a glare, "The minute someone senses she is she will be killed on the spot or tortured to tell us the hideout of the Order."
"Hinako will be fine until I get back," he said calmly. "Then I will run off with her and re-start our lives together."
"You're a hopeless romantic Sora," Hiashi shook his head.
Hizashi slammed the door close, "Brother, we have an issue. Severus is headed this way." They all went wide eyed and Sora quickly kicked upon a back door with Hinako in his arms. "Come now brother," Hizashi stopped Hiashi from running off. "We must make sure that Severus stops here and keep Hinako protected."
"I am not going to leave her with that maniac, her brother made me promise to watch over her."
"Brother," Hizashi pleaded, "Sora would never hurt her and you know that." Hiashi just gave an 'hn' and stood calmly. Hizashi smiled at him, "Thank you Brother."
"Don't mention it."

~Major Time Skip~
Hinako did not know how she got here, but there she sat on the mat in her living room with the little bundle in her arms. She smiled down at the living and breathing child the one that had come from her and….her husband. Hinako glanced at the ring that was around her finger; she smiled as she thought back to how she had obtained it. After her incident with Sora she found herself on a plane, seated beside her was the same male that had earlier confessed his feelings to her. He warned that she couldn't make a scene around all the humans, but Hinako was so confused of why she was on the plane, with him none-the-less. Sora had rid her of her cloak and both of their wands were safely tucked away in a bag that was under his seat. He wore plain civilian clothes and was currently readying the paper like nothing was wrong. Hinako was ready to yell at him for kidnapping her, but as she rose her hand to point at him, her eyes caught the gleam of the golden ring on her finger. Sora calmly explained that he had bought her the wedding band since he had decided to marry her as soon as they got back to Japan. Hinako's face was as red as a tomato but Sora kept talking. He vowed to stay by her side in case the Dark Lord came after them since Sora had left the Death Eaters with all their secrets and that Hinako had discovered them and sent out a signal to where they were meeting. Not to mention that Lady Kouno –mother of Sora- would love to have a daughter-in-law like Hinako.
She didn't have much room to argue, but she did refuse to marry him…right away. Sora was greatly disappointed at that since he wanted to get the whole thing out of the way so it would be official. Hinako refused it and said that she wasn't going to suddenly marry him since he wanted to marry her. Sora just gave a small pout and went back to his paper. Hinako wanted to call all her friends to tell her that she was okay, but Sora forbade her to do so. They were to go into hiding and neither of them could come into contact with any of them. She couldn't argue with that, so all she could do was hope that they knew she was okay. Sora also reminded her that once they did land in Japan, they couldn't go back home either. No one could know where they were and if they did that was one step closer to being discovered by someone else. Hinako sat back in her seat and just fell asleep on the plane.
And now, as she looked at where it got her, Hinako was very happy with its results. Surely she missed her friends and recently tried to find out on anything about the Order without giving away her position. She looked over at the clock and watched as the minute hand stiffly landed on the twelve and it read that it was late. Hinako slowly stood up and walked to the nursery. She stopped as she found all the photos she had collected over the years she was back at home, smiling at them all. She picked up the one where she smiled happily in her wedding Kimono, but Sora had a light smile. She put it back down and continued on to the light colored room. How she had never thought this day would come; where she could be a mother to the most beautiful little baby she had ever seen. Hinako set the baby down in the crib and then covered the bundle even more to make sure the baby was as warm as could be. She stayed there for a while and watched as the baby closed their eyes and fell to sleep once more. Hinako just sighed and left the room so that her baby may sleep.
"Hinako," Sora began to yell from the front door, "Hinako please answer me!"
"Shhh," she ran out to the living room and watched him stand in the room looking for her. "I just put the baby to sleep-" she was cut off as Sora pulled her into an embrace and pressed his lips against her forehead. "What is up with you Sora-kun?"
"We must leave," he said quickly, "it is no longer safe here." He pushed Hinako down the hall to their room while looking back over his shoulder like someone was behind him. "Pack some things and take the baby anywhere. Don't look back and do not wait for me." He gave strict and clear orders as Hinako was getting some clothes and necessities and shoving them into a bag. Hinako put her bag on and then went out to where Sora stood and handed her the sleeping baby.
"Sora what is going on?" She asked with worry and fear as he practically pushed her all the way to the back of the house where there was an exit.
"I-I can't explain Hinako just don't look back," he stood in the door way as she stepped out into the dark night. Hinako looked back at him as he stood with a sad face, "I love you Hinako Kouno."
"Sora…" she said taking a step towards him, but he pointed in the other direction. "I love you too." Sora smiled lightly and closed the dead and ran to the front of the house. Hinako just took in a deep breath and began to run off through the grassy fields that where behind her home. She clutched the infant close with both hands and tried her best to keep from looking back. She stood in the middle of the field, with its high grass coming up to her knees. Against the command of her husband she looked back and gasped as she saw her home was going up in flames with all her memories and photos that she had loved to look at. Hinako looked down at the infant, "I must worry only about you," she gave the sleeping baby a smile. "For nothing shall harm you." Hinako went back to running into the forest where she could easily find a path and get to the next city with ease. But as she entered the forest she looked back once more in hopes that Sora was following after her but she saw dark ghost like figures flying about, looking for something. Hinako ran into the thickest part of the forest and went over to one of the hallowed out trees. She felt tears build up with her eyes and with every blink they escaped her eyes and ran down her cheeks. "Okay my child," she tucked the child into an opening in the tree and made sure the infant was bundled up well. "I know you will be frightened, but do not cry, for I will be back for you." Her hands fumbled as she removed her necklace and placed it around the little neck of her baby, "please wait for me my child. I love you so much." She lightly kissed her fingers and then touched the baby's cheek. Hinako bit back a sob and hid the opening of the tree and got back to her feet. She was not going to lose her baby.

Sora ran through the empty field, his body battered and bruised. His clothes had been torn and ripped but all that was on his mind was his wife and child. He ran faster than he thought he could run and hoped that she was already in the next town over. He had fought so many Death Eaters that he had lost track of them and wasn't sure if he had gotten them all. He cursed as the Dark Mark on his arm burned even more as he ran that it felt like it was on fire. Sora pushed through a bit longer and once he came upon the forest the jewels on his gloves began to glow a dark color and he feared the worst. The magic was still in the air, it was so thick that he had trouble breathing in it. Trees, plants, and bushes had scorch marks and looked to have been pulled out by their roots. But as he walked to the center of all that magic, Sora chocked back a sob that wracked his body and covered his mouth with the urge to throw up.
There sprawled out on the ground was the beautiful that was Hinako; long blue hair was sprawled over the ground that it covered her face. He ran over to her and slowly knelt by her side; he almost didn't want to touch her, not wanting the physical proof that she might be…dead. Sora slowly began to move her hair out of her face and with rapid blinks the tears fell from his eyes as his eyes landed upon her face. She was still so perfect. Her eye lids were down and her lips were slightly parted; Sora shook his head.
"No…no, no, no, no," he muttered again as he picked her up and held her cold body closer to his own. "Hinako please…please you cannot leave me like this." This may have been the first time that Sora had cried, oh how he hated the feeling of his heart shattering in his chest. "Hinako!" He cried out into the sky as sobs bubbled out from his throat.
"How the mighty fall," Sora's head snapped in the direction of the voice that he had known perfectly well. "I have waited much too long for this day," Lucius stepped out from the shadow's with his wand still in hand. "We've all missed you Sora, so I hope you don't mind if I let the others catch up with you. I just say your lovely run off before she got to formally meet us." The blonde haired man smirked as he watched Sora glare at him with his eyes burning with hate. "How about we catch up while we head on back to England?"
"You monster," Sora growled out, "I want nothing to do with any of you! So crawl back into your hole and I hope to re-meet you in hell!"
"Oh," Lucius mocked, "that hurts me Sora. Why stay here when you have nothing left? The Dark Lord still has a very nice plan for you once we return; maybe he can make up for all of this." Lucius sneered as Sora gave him a reply with a very rude hand gesture and foul language to match. "I bet the life of that little brat will be a well enough reward," he smiled evilly as he watched realization hit Sora. Sora looked about to see if his child was anywhere to be found. "Oh I didn't want you to see that image, but I was sure that the infant felt no pain."
"Y-You…" Sora gently placed his wife on the ground and got to his feet. He was stumbling as the thought bounced around his head. His baby, all that was left of his wife…his pride and joy was…gone? Sora ran over to a bush and emptied what was in his stomach and then just gave painful heaves of nothing. Lucius laughed as he watched the strong male break down into a heap of pathetic nothingness. "My….my wife and m-my baby…gone?" He looked back at the blonde. "Why Malfoy, what wrong have I done!"
"You left the most powerful man to be with that harlot of a woman!" Lucius yelled back with a glare as he pointed to the dead Hinako. "I should have killed you long ago, you are the reason those Phoenix rebels were ever able to stand up to us all. You allowed her to live and now you pay the price for your treason." Sora's hands began to spark with light and Lucius was not ready for another fight. "I am giving you a choice Sora, come with us and join the greatest power in the world. Once we are done you will get your reward."
Sora looked to Hinako once more; he couldn't leave her…but he was of no good to her now. He didn't deserve someone like her, he was the reason she and his baby were dead. "Just…Just give me a moment…" he said. Lucius rolled his eyes and walked away from the two to the edge of the forest. Sora kneeled beside her once more, "Hinako…I'm so sorry. I hope that one day you will forgive me. I will avenge you my wife, no matter what I must do I will be sure not let your death be in vain." He bent down and kissed her cold lips once more. He stood up and held out his hand, "Expecto Patronum," a hawk made of blue magic appeared. "Tell anyone in the Ministry that Hinako Hiroshi has died…and so has Sora Kouno." The Hawk gave a caw and then flew off until it disappeared into the night sky.
"Is the brat really dead," a Death Eater asked Lucius as he walked through the fields.
"If not now it will be soon," he smirked, "nature will take its course soon enough."

Minerva McGonagall stood at the edge of the forest and waited as Hagrid walked out of the forest with tears in his eyes as he held the dead body of Hinako, but McGonagall went wide eyed as the half-giant also gently held something else in his large hand. "Sorry ma'am, I found her cryin'." Hagrid handed her the baby girl that continued to cry to the older woman. "I be thinkin' she Miss Hiroshi's child," he wiped the tears from his eyes, "couldn't leave her out there all alone."
"Good job Hagrid," McGonagall said lightly as she tried to lull the baby back to sleep. The baby had a little hair on her head that she had been born with her mother blue hair and was unusually pale. She turned around and motioned for Hagrid to follow, "What we gonna do no ma'am?"
"Miss Hiroshi is to be taken somewhere to be properly buried and I…I must talk to Dumbledore about the child." She parted from Hagrid as he continued to the house where a few others were waiting to help bury the woman and alert her family that she had died in the house fire. The only thing that made McGonagall shiver was that Sora Kouno was also reported dead, but his body was nowhere to be found; she only hoped that it was not taken by the Death Eaters. She came upon a barren dirt road and there waited the old man, who looked to be staring up at the small sliver of moon. He looked so at peace with the world. "Dumbledore," she spoke, "a child has lived."
He nodded lightly and looked to her, "I have heard," she stood beside him.
"What are we to do? They may come back for her," McGonagall said in a bit of a panic.
"Do not fret Professor McGonagall," Dumbledore said calmly, "I know a place where the baby will be well taken care of."

~ 12 Years Later ~
Hiashi sat at his desk with his paper work all around him; he sighed as he sat back and closed his tired eyes. He hated paperwork and his pile never seemed to go away. Hiashi didn't want to run a business, he wanted to go outside and play with his daughter, but his father had left him with everything on his death bed and there was no way that Hiashi could refuse him. Hizashi happily only played a small part in the company and would often come and sit with Hiashi and talked to him. So much he had left behind in England and all the friends he thought he had made with the others. In the end he had to run away from the Ministry and hope that they had long forgotten about him and Hizashi.
He came home to live in the Hyuga compound and was able to meet a nice girl and settle down. Hizashi had come home to a longtime girlfriend and the two were instantly planning a wedding and a life together. Hiashi got the job as the president of Hyuga Corp. and Hizashi was Vice president; neither of them complained in public of their jobs. Hizashi was overly upset at first since this met he would also be living on the Hyuga's Estate when he and his wife wanted to live somewhere else. Not only that, but by orders from their father, they were not allowed to reveal their powers in anyway. They were no longer wizards, just normal people. Hiashi let his eyes move over to the book shelf; on the middle shelf was an old leather lined box that had grown dusty from not ever being moved or touched. He could see them in there, his wand and gloves that still fit him, which looked so perfect like they were still brand new. He couldn't tare his eyes away from it, but then there was a hard knock on the door.
"Enter," Hiashi said sitting up in his chair and picking up the pen with his tired hand.
"Brother," Hizashi came in like he would almost every day, but he didn't look happy like all the other days. He had letters in his hands, but he had separated one from the others and this one was so familiar looking to him and it nearly made his heart stop.
"Give me the letter Hizashi," Hiashi ordered as he held out his hand for the letter. It had to be a mistake; no one in the Hyuga family had been born a Shaman. He had been sure that his own daughter and Hizashi's son was not Shaman's; it was very rare to get a Shaman in the Hyuga clan since the gene was so rare. But as he looked at the name on the letter it was like he had been punched in the stomach; the name belonged to the girl he had forgotten was not really his daughter. "Th-They even got her last name right," he smiled as he his hand began to tremble. The letter was made out to Hinata Hiroshi.
"She can't go there alone Brother," Hizashi said as he pulled up a chair and sat down on the other side of the desk.
"That is what they said to her too," they both lightly saddened at the thought of their late friend. Hiashi ran his hand through his long brown hair. He could still remember that fateful night that he had trouble sleeping. When Hiashi could not sleep that would mean something was very wrong in the world and he soon found out what it was. His old Professor, aged even more than he could remember was at his door, with a tightly wrapped bundle of joy that was oddly quiet. Hiashi put two and two together and clutched the door frame as if he was about to collapse in shock. Dumbledore explained what had happened and without any hesitation, Hiashi held out his hands to receive the baby that looked up at him with big dark lavender eyes. He bowed to his Professor who wished him the best of luck and then gave him his condolences on his lost. Hiashi closed the door before he could see the man vanish. Hiashi awoke his wife and told her of what has happened; Yuki was kind woman and quickly took the baby to the nursery that was still being worked on.
"Otou-san," a soft voice called from behind the closed door, "Hanabi-imouto wants t-to eat, sh-should I make her something?"
"Go ahead," Hiashi said in a warm voice and then looked to the letter, "and…and be sure you both look decent. I'm having a very important guest come by." The two males listened to her agree to do as she is told and then run off calling for the young Hyuga daughter. "I guess I have a chance to use this again," he smiled as he lifted up his hand and caused the box to come over and land on his desk.
"Who will come to get her," Hizashi asked.
"They'll probably send over that giant," he said as he held his wand. It felt nice in his hands, "he always had a way with children."
